INSTRUCTIONS and WISDOM for 2017 and Beyond

"2017: The Year of Active Occupation, Supernatural Favor and Selective Restoration for the Remnant of Christ"

MY 2017 PRAYER CONFESSION:

"Teach me how to live, O Lord. Lead me along the right path, for my enemies are waiting for me. Do not let me fall into their hands. For they accuse me of things I've never done; with every breath they threaten me with violence. Yet I am confident I will see the Lord's goodness while I am here in the land of the living. Wait patiently for The Lord. Be brave and courageous. Yes. wait patiently for The Lord." (Psalm 27:11-14)

The FAITHFUL REMNANT should be super excited about 2017, because the prophetic words -- from many prophets concerning "double" FAVOR, HONOR and INCREASE that's going to overtake our lives according to God's Word (Isaiah 61 and Zechariah 9) is absolutely exciting and true! And, we spend SO MUCH TIME dealing with "the curse" that we've been "redeemed from" (Galatians 3:13,29) that we see very slow advancement, because of all the hang ups with weaknesses we need to process from the previous year!

BEWARE of any "prophecies" that do NOT completely address the "double-sided coin" or range of issues pertaining to the fulfillment of God's Covenant with the "one new man in Christ" (Jews and Gentiles); but, more specifically, HIS dealings with Israel (Romans 11) and the apocalyptic events and eschatological occurrences that are presently on the horizon, that requires Christ's Remnant to actively PRAY and consistently SUPPORT!

As we should all KNOW, the needed "balance" and "context" from the scripture, with specific regards for the times that we live, must be taken into account with greater emphasis and attention to "detail", as "5777: The Year of the Sword", is prophetically revealed and unfolds before our eyes!

Chuck Pierce said this about 5777: This is the Year of the Sword of the LORD Opening Up Portals of Vision! This is a year the SWORD of the LORD WILL CONTEND for the WELLS of REVIVAL in the Earth! The year ahead is a year of War and Worship! This will be an incredible time of understanding the conflicts and strategies of triumph that will impact the remainder of this decade.  This is a time of completing purposes and bringing them to fullness. Be one of those who attends and receives revelation that will help direct us for the next several years. (END)

In Jeremiah 50:35-37, the Bible says ""A sword is against the Chaldeans," says the LORD, "Against the inhabitants of Babylon, and against her princes and her wise men. A sword is against the soothsayers, and they will be fools. A sword is against her mighty men, and they will be dismayed. A sword is against their horses, against their chariots, and against all the mixed peoples who are in her midst; And they will become like women. A sword is against her treasures, and they will be robbed" (NKJV). 

"THE SWORD" is interpreted to mean:

1. The Sword of the Lord is the Word of the Lord (Hebrews 4:12 and Revelation 19:15)

2. The Sword of the Lord is going to strike Babylon in order to set His captives free (Luke 4:18)

3. The Sword of the Lord is going to take captives and turn them into "covenant keepers" (Jeremiah 50:4-5)

4. The Sword of the Lord is going to use the "freed captives" to rebuild cities (Isaiah 61:1-4)

5. The Sword of the Lord is going to release the transfer of wealth from the wicked to the righteous (Jeremiah 50:37 and Proverbs 13:22)

From the standpoint of sharing some PRACTICAL APPLICATION concerning the "clashing of swords" that is taking place right now, The Lord revealed the following:

> "Wounded perceptions" develop imbalanced-hypersensitivities, and during a time when the spewing of emotions and dark feelings is taking precedence over sound principles from God's Word, the unestablished hearts of believers and unbelievers alike -- will speak more LOUDLY; so we must stay in the Word for ourselves to develop a heightened and razor-sharp discernment, as even the "very elect will be deceived", without being completely anchored in HIS Promises moving forward.

> "Vacillating allegiances" and "unhealthy alliances" from past seasons, have no place in the believers heart in 2017! As THIS YEAR is marked by the "sword" and the "eye", to both SEE and SEEK that which perfectly agrees and aligns with HIS Plans, our heart attitudes and individual/corporate pursuits must reflect a MATURITY that is conspicuous and conscious of all that we do that converges with HIS Overarching Agenda and Purpose.

> Effectiveness, Efficacy and Efficiency for the Body of Christ are matters of PRIORITY in the coming year, so any/all "distracting episodes" rooted in personal ambitions and ego, will absolutely NOT prosper in 2017! God is not going to permit our "slow learning" and our "diminished discernment", to spoil HIS agenda from unfolding with exact timeliness and with powerful precision for divine restoration to occur!

> ALL "passive occupation" and "abdicating authority" will accelerate our requisite learning and understanding, so that our past inability or impotency -- tied to feelings of inadequacy and inferiority, do NOT hinder us from claiming and pursuing what supernaturally belongs to us!

> "Apostolic Government" and "Prophetic Alignment" -- through "kingdom partnerships", will prove even more beneficial and fruitful outcomes, as the Unity of the Spirit takes on a greater measure of importance to the advancement of HIS Kingdom on earth as it is in heaven!

> "Supernatural favor" will reveal itself with an ever-increasing intensity in 2017, as God honors the consistently faithful and the intentionally focused sons and daughters of the Kingdom of Light. The continuum of growth and maturity (in Christ) will play a major part in the graduated development and elevation of Christ's Remnant in the earth this year. But, "the available", "the dependent" and "the willing vessels", will be used with an even greater veracity (accuracy of impact) and velocity (magnitude of use) in various arenas that we remain "open" to occupy.

> "God's Original Intent" IS what "divine restoration" is all about, and IF we're willing to leave the "ultimate results" up to HIM, we will see quicker transitions and needed change, so that our blessings, increase and prosperity remains about our cooperation and participation for "kingdom use".  Where we refuse to enforce the rule of God through our authority in Christ this year, there will be a diminishing impact and shrinking witness that causes our voices to have NO DISTINCTION in the marketplace!

I  BELIEVE that it is very important "to judge" and "to weigh" EVERYTHING that we HEAR out the mouth of two or three witnesses, who are competent, credible, mature and humble vessels of the Lord!  #WS-3
