This word started with the Lord telling me I was at the end of the current dimension place in the Spirit. I had unrest. I knew I must push on, push up, change some things, and go into higher dimension in order to go forward with Him. We are always needing the fresh work God is doing. We must have new wineskins to hold the new wine of God’s spirit. The new wine is for the wedding. It is preparing us for the wedding feast with Jesus. The new wine is the strength of His joy, it’s peace, it is courage, endurance and freedom. It is the Holy Ghost work in us as we hold everything with a slip knot, surrendered, yielded and humble resisting the devil and drawing close to God to let Him change you and touch your heart and spirit. All we are and All we have belong to God Our lives are not our own. We have been bought with a price to be completely redeemed to our beginning destiny in God. J.H.
“Word for the church!”
The Church is at a Crossroads in the Spirit as are many others. You stand at the threshold of the fresh move of God? Which way will you go? Will you choose to stay in the comfortable place with old wineskins of traditional use and move with the ornaments of man rather than the raw power of God? Will you choose to stay where it is safe, where you know how to move. Or will you choose to risk the mess, the uncertainty and be uncomfortable in a new place where you have to trust God completely. God is pouring out His new wine. New wine cannot be poured into old wineskins or both are lost.
Will you choose to listen to the voice of the Holy Spirit in intimate relationship? We cannot follow or only listen to the many voices of other streams of ministry. We must prayerfully listen to our inner most being where Holy Spirit speaks and not copy others in what they do or how they do it. True fruitfulness with power only comes from intimacy with the Lord.
Will you open your heart to change, to new ways, to let Holy Spirit teach you and lead you? Or will you choose to stay in yesterday; With the mind set of things that have happen in your life previous? Or will you not fall back but move on with the Lord into a whole new chapter of life, a new beginning, a new chapter? Will you let him heal all the past , strip away what is no longer working, stand in a place of awe and wonder because you have never been here before. Will you let him give you His mind and a whole new Holy Ghost grid? Will you let Him take you where you have never been and see God like you never have?
A new beginning requires a surrender, a yielding, a submission to new methods, new thinking new wineskins that only Holy Spirit can give you as you surrender to His move. God never changes in who He is but He is always changing His methods…for the Spirit River is always moving and changing its current and course.
You must pack up the past in your suitcase allowing the Holy Spirit to pack only what He wants you to carry into your new place in Him. He will never let you lose what God has accomplished in you, but He will strip away what is no longer effective. Church there is change needed for the new wine, for the new move of God. It will not look like what you have known. It may be messy at time, it may mean new songs, giving up the order you are used to or completely letting God just rearrange everything. He may pull up, tear down and then build up a new powerful church where the walls are the fire of God, and the glory of God dwells in the midst.
The Lord wants the church that will leave all tradition and step out into the new day, the new age where Holy Spirit is creating His bride for His coming. He wants it to be all about Jesus and your heart. He wants the soul of the church to be fastened tightly to its head, the Lord Jesus. He wants the spirit of His church to be adventurous in Him, unafraid, unmovable, full of agape love, fully consecrated and fully alive in Him that the Fathers work of the Kingdom might be accomplished until Jesus returns. He wants the church to become the sons of God, mature and moving in His authority on the earth from a heavenly place where He has seated them. He wants to bless and favor the church that will humble themselves in utter dependance and fully yield to obedience at all costs.
The Lord says to His beloved church “Do not miss the day of your visitation for I desire to come and abide with you forever. You cannot stay where you are and affect your community and surrounding area. God calls you to do what you cannot do. You must enter a new dimension of my Spirit in worship and bring down powers that hinder my move. Seek Him for it! You must let your worship break chains that bind this community. You must forget about yourselves and enter an open heaven letting your praise be upward to the heavenly places. You must decree the words of the Lord in praise and worship that will bring Kingdom change. The fields are white for harvest. Janee Hawks
