bowing down to the dust, forsaking their own souls.

Be Holy
The Lord says,
I Am holy. Be holy therefore as I Am holy. A mindset, a lifestyle and an attitude of holiness causes many difficulties and troubles to slide off of you. It causes them to lose their stickiness and their ability to adhere to you. Holiness is a slick surface that causes difficulties and troubles to slide off of you. Yes, they touch you still. Yes, they impact you still. But they don’t take up residence in your heart and mind. When you are holy, these difficulties and troubles and problems are not allowed the long parasitic life that the enemy desires.
Holiness is a great protective covering for your heart, mind and body. Be holy, therefore as I Am holy. Holiness has primary and tertiary benefits. It’s not just for your immediate good. It actually multiplies good in your life. It protects and multiplies the good in your life. Be holy, therefore as I Am holy.
This is not about behavior modification. This is not about following rules. This is about the mind and heart of a laid down lover of Mine. This is the lifestyle and the besotted mindset of a lover who wants to please Me, who hungers and thirsts for My voice and My Word. This has nothing to do with rules and behavior. It has everything to do with a heart set on Me, seeking Me first and desiring to live a lifestyle that pleases Me before yourself or anyone else.
Be holy, therefore as I Am holy. Choose Me. Draw deeply from My well of revelation, of joy, of hope, of purpose. You can find all of these in Me. Drink in the drink of My Spirit and be satisfied.
I Am your daily bread. Come to My table daily. Sit with Me daily. You must eat and drink of Me daily to receive the strength, the nourishment, the resilience and the connection with Me that you need to succeed. This is a daily habit, a daily need of your body, mind and soul. Don’t push me aside for the urgent or the the important. You need My wisdom and My voice to take on the day. It doesn’t matter when you do it. Just make time for Me. Prioritize Me. I Am here, sitting, waiting at the table for you My dearly loved one.
Choose Love. Choose Me. Be holy.
His Banner Over Us Is Love
The Lord says,
I have raised My trident, which represents the Trinity — Father, Son and Holy Spirit. I have raised it in the air, and I Am proclaiming My sovereignty, My Oneness, My position as the One True Ultimate God and King. The world will bow — wealthy and poor alike. They will touch their faces to the earth in reverence, in humility, in repentance and in awe at My majesty, My wonder, My splendor and My glory. I Am making Myself known, and I Am raising a standard against the works of the enemy. My banner over you is love. And My rising up, My making Myself known to the peoples of the Earth is a great act of great love, of justice and of judgement that brings with it a return to righteousness, faith and truth.
Big change is coming. A big shift toward justice is at hand. Watch for My mighty swing to the right. I am swiftly and powerfully making a decisive swing of things back to what is right. Watch Me do it.
