Ignore what “they” say!  Ignore “their” words of doubt and unbelief.  Ignore ALL “their” words that do not line up with what the Lord  has spoken concerning your situation.  Continue to stand on His word knowing that He is more than able to perform just as HE SAID!!!  And in not too many days, you shall see the results of the self-fulfilling power of the Lord’s words.  Your victory is sure and imminent!  Hallelujah!!!

Mark 5:

³⁵While He was still speaking, there came some from the ruler’s house, who said [to Jairus], Your daughter has died. Why bother and distress the Teacher any further?    ³⁶Overhearing but ignoring what they said, Jesus said to the ruler of the synagogue, Do not be seized with alarm and struck with fear; only keep on believing.

    ³⁷And He permitted no one to accompany Him except Peter and James and John the brother of James.

    ³⁸When they arrived at the house of the ruler of the synagogue, He looked [carefully and with understanding] at [the] tumult and the people weeping and wailing loudly.

    ³⁹And when He had gone in, He said to them, Why do you make an uproar and weep? The little girl is not dead but is sleeping.

    ⁴⁰And they laughed and jeered at Him. But He put them all out, and, taking the child’s father and mother and those who were with Him, He went in where the little girl was lying.

    ⁴¹Gripping her [firmly] by the hand, He said to her, Talitha cumi–which translated is, Little girl, I say to you, arise [from the sleep of death]!

    ⁴²And instantly the girl got up and started walking around–for she was twelve years old. And they were utterly astonished and overcome with amazement.

You are and have been waiting on the Lord. 

The enemy has imprisoned many of the Lord’s servants without just cause .  He has thought to put you away and take you out of commission to prevent you from inflicting any further damage to his kingdom or plans.  But, even though you were wrongfully beaten and punished, terribly shackled and weighted down, and kept in a cold, dark dungeon for many years; you continued to minister unto and for your Lord just where you were!!!   Many of you had thought your imprisonment to be permanent for it seemed that the bars, shackles, weights, and locks holding you were too strong to ever be broken.  But with God all things are possible!  Your consistent and persistent prayer and praise has reached the throne of grace.  And as the Lord has deemed it time to set you free, nothing is now able to imprison you….no weakness or infirmity, no poverty or lack, no disadvantage or lack of opportunity, no plan or plot of man or of any demon from the pit of hell!  NO NOTHING can hold you to keep you from the release of the Lord! There is now a great shaking and an even greater shaking coming to the very foundation of the kingdom of darkness.  Shackles and bars are breaking, and weights and locks are being cast aside as prison doors swing wide open.  There is a great prison break for the loyal servants of the Most High God!!!  You shall not only be freed to walk forth into a new and larger place of service, but you will bring out many with you from where you have been.  The Lord is releasing you and lifting you up.  The very people who served to hold you down and help imprison you will now be turned for the Lord’s purposes…some even unto salvation and others simply to be used as vessels to assist you in your way.  You are not coming out lowly or in secret.  No, you are coming out exalted by the hand of the Lord and in full sight of those who have attempted to keep you imprisoned.  Rejoice in the shaking for it is indeed the Lord’s decreed time for a great prison break!  Whatever stronghold that you thought was holding you from being released into your God ordained destiny is being broken through by the Lord God Almighty!!!  Rejoice and sing unto your Lord for it is time for your release!!! 

 

Acts 16:

¹⁶And it came to pass, as we went to prayer, a certain damsel possessed with a spirit of divination met us, which brought her masters much gain by soothsaying: ¹⁷The same followed Paul and us, and cried, saying, These men are the servants of the most high God, which shew unto us the way of salvation.

 ¹⁸And this did she many days. But Paul, being grieved, turned and said to the spirit, I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And he came out the same hour.

 ¹⁹And when her masters saw that the hope of their gains was gone, they caught Paul and Silas, and drew them into the marketplace unto the rulers,

 ²⁰And brought them to the magistrates, saying, These men, being Jews, do exceedingly trouble our city,

 ²¹And teach customs, which are not lawful for us to receive, neither to observe, being Romans.

 ²²And the multitude rose up together against them: and the magistrates rent off their clothes, and commanded to beat them.

 ²³And when they had laid many stripes upon them, they cast them into prison, charging the jailor to keep them safely:

 ²⁴Who, having received such a charge, thrust them into the inner prison, and made their feet fast in the stocks.

 ²⁵And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them.

 ²⁶And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and every one’s bands were loosed.

 ²⁷And the keeper of the prison awaking out of his sleep, and seeing the prison doors open, he drew out his sword, and would have killed himself, supposing that the prisoners had been fled.

 ²⁸But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, Do thyself no harm: for we are all here.

 ²⁹Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and fell down before Paul and Silas,

 ³⁰And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?

 ³¹And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.

 ³²And they spake unto him the word of the Lord, and to all that were in his house.

 ³³And he took them the same hour of the night, and washed their stripes; and was baptized, he and all his, straightway.

 ³⁴And when he had brought them into his house, he set meat before them, and rejoiced, believing in God with all his house.

 ³⁵And when it was day, the magistrates sent the serjeants, saying, Let those men go.

 ³⁶And the keeper of the prison told this saying to Paul, The magistrates have sent to let you go: now therefore depart, and go in peace.

 ³⁷But Paul said unto them, They have beaten us openly uncondemned, being Romans, and have cast us into prison; and now do they thrust us out privily? nay verily; but let them come themselves and fetch us out.

 ³⁸And the serjeants told these words unto the magistrates: and they feared, when they heard that they were Romans.

 ³⁹And they came and besought them, and brought them out, and desired them to depart out of the city.

 ⁴⁰And they went out of the prison, and entered into the house of Lydia: and when they had seen the brethren, they comforted them, and departed.

You have been confined even imprisoned in a tight, hard place for a very long time.  You have grown so weary in the contending,  but you still sit before the Lord praying for your open door.  The Lord is now swinging open that door before you .  It shall swing wide suddenly so be ready, but rest assured that no man…not even you can shut this door that the Lord is opening.  Just see and recognize the open door and know that it is the Lord’s doing.  Don’t hesitate to walk through this door for it will lead you into the large place that the Lord has for you.  Be very watchful and ready for it is your midnight hour, and the Lord is moving on your behalf.

 

II Samuel 22:

²⁰He brought me forth also into a large place: he delivered me, because he delighted in me.  

PENNIES FROM HEAVEN

 

It all started several days ago when a penny seemingly fell out of the sky and hit me on the shoulder while I was driving my car.  Every day since, a penny has fallen around or on me.  Yesterday I finally realized  that the Lord was trying to show me something.  As I looked at yesterday’s penny, I heard in my Spirit..Pennies from heaven.  I looked up the meaning of the phrase and found this:

 

From Oxford English Dictionary:
“e. pennies from heaven: money acquired without effort or risk; unexpected benefits, esp. financial ones. Also (in sing.): a windfall, a godsend (rare).

 

This is the message I received from the Lord:

 

You have thought that you were becoming completely penniless….that all your resources were being depleted.  But I say unto you, fear not!  I AM with you, and I will now open My treasuries of heaven to rain upon you My supernatural abundance.  You will walk in My wealth to do My business.  You shall not be without the resources needed to achieve My goals.  You will complete that which I have burdened you with for I will provide ALL that is needed.  The enemy is attempting to cut off your supply lines in the natural, but you operate from a higher place.  I AM above all of the world and will provide in My ways.  Even now I have My angels dispatched on your behalf to bring forth your abundant provision.  Rejoice My children for you shall overcome and succeed in the face of your enemies.  Prepare to receive My abundance designated specifically for you!  Your table is prepared!

 

Psalm 23:

⁵Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. ⁶Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.
