Beauty For Ashes!

"For his anger lasts only for a moment, but his favor lasts a lifetime; weeping may remain for a night, but rejoicing comes in the morning." Psalm 30:5

"The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on me, because the Lord has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners, to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn, and provide for those who grieve in Zion...to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair. They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the Lord for a display of his splendor (Glory)." Isaiah 61:1-3

"When the Lord brought back the captives to Zion, we were like men who dreamed. Our mouths were filled with laughter, our tongues with songs of joy. Then it was said among the nations, 'The Lord has done great things for them'" Psalm 126:1-2

Walking into my Clinic this morning, I marveled at the Gold Dust that had formed overnight. Heaven's Fallout decorated various surfaces, as each particle glistened with an indescribable glow, clearly declaring, "Paul, I'm here! The Throne Room has never been closer. Truly, people are now able to reach out and touch their God, and the Lord of all can do likewise, in unprecedented fashion." The Most High has been leaving His Thumbprint (Signature) on everything, responding as creation cries out for a manifestation of the Sons and Daughters, a display of Covenant, an establishment of our rights and privileges in Christ.

The Holy Spirit wants to literally remove the world's garbage, replacing it with destiny-oriented identity and other blessings, while perfecting whatever is of concern. He detests pain. You and I are to reflect him. As someone once said, "There are four Gospels...Matthew, Mark, Luke, John and You! Most people read the latter!"

"Peace on earth, good will toward men," is His pronouncement. Dad knows all about those "hits" you've taken in the past...accusations, judgments, bruises that cannot be seen with the naked eye. Each tear has been stored in a special bottle for release in these marvelous days of outpouring. What will transpire, as they fall in their direction of origin? Condensation...Clouds of Glory, a reversal of that, over which you wept. Remember, God's DNA resides in every drop. The former and latter rains will surely contain them. That's precisely why we've been given Heaven's promises concerning this topic..."beauty for ashes and joy in the morning!"

Every intercessory word, act and prayer is a seed, loaded with the Power necessary for bringing itself to pass. As we take care of His business, He will well handle ours. Placing the Kingdom and His Righteousness (Christ) first, invariably results in promotion, a reciprocal "adding" response. It's so important to recognize that there's no good thing in anyone's flesh. Value is found in yielding to that still, small Voice on the inside.

Don't be mindful of an untamed tongue, those accusers. Dad is our Vindicator. Nothing really matters, but this...loving, serving, laying down your life for another, in obedience to Him. That's what we're all about. The Gospel in one word will always be...Love!

Jesus was willing to get His hands dirty. He did that when making a decision to enter this earth in the form of man. Why? Because God cared enough to send Glory's Best. In St. Louis, Missouri, where another Miracle Rally will soon be held...a second visit for this ministry, one will discover the international headquarters for Hallmark Greeting Cards. Their impressive building glows with His Presence. The company's well-known slogan..."When you care enough to send the best," truly represents Papa's heart.

Think about this. When digging for gold or diamonds, what is usually first encountered? Dirt! Even around the Glory Flakes resting on papers and furniture in my office, dust is also prevalent. In most places, you can't have one without the other. We are but dust! However, on the inside of each person is a treasure. With a prostitute by the Savior's side, the Master discovered that fact, as He wrote in the soil and boldly declared, "Let him who is without sin cast the first stone." No one did! The Anointing convicted and prevented the finger pointers from harming that injured soul. Yet, getting His hands dirty was part of the job. In that process, wealth was discovered in men, women and children. The sick were healed; the dead received life, another chance to get it right and taste of destiny; the oppressed embraced deliverance.

What comes so strongly to my spirit, right now, is this..."Sin offers grace a perpetually winnable challenge." Love never fails. Prophetically perceiving people, places, things, situations and circumstances remains key to victory.

Have we not been instructed to overcome evil with good? What about those "greater works" that must be performed by the Church? Sickness, poverty and death are certainly components of sin, the fall of man. The Bride isn't present to helplessly wring Her hands over graves and sickbeds. She has been reserved for such a time as this, to take charge, set the captive free, vitally reverse the curse, drive out the trespasser and present a Living Christ. God has been lied about long enough. With the assistance of the Power Agent, you and I will set the record straight, once and for all!

Golden Glory!

"Precious Child, treasures exist that you know not of. Too many books have been judged by their covers. Mine, the Word, is about to be unveiled in great majesty and Power. How will you ever be able to prophesy to dead bones without a revelation from Me? Who has instructed the Beloved about God, the fact that man is a spirit, with a soul...mind, intellect, will, emotions, dreams and visions, living in a body, which permits transport? Oh, so many are educated beyond their intelligence in many domains. What earthly teacher, in today's classroom, relates the highest form of truth? Most students are taught on how to 'succeed' in the lower life, when there's a much higher one to attain in Me. Heaven's College has opened its doors. Attend to every word emanating from the Throne Room. Prepare to touch the dirt! There is Gold, the Glory, in the most unusual places! Let Me list a few for you....bars, funeral homes, cemeteries, medical centers, mental hospitals and prisons. That's right! The previously overlooked and shunned will be the most prolific regions of manifestation. In certain areas, the Unction will ongoingly abide. Sin, sickness, poverty and death will enter one door and exist another, as righteousness, health, wealth and resurrection replace their counterparts. Old mindsets have to be permanently tossed aside. A new thing is poised to strike this planet. Memories and thoughts of yesterday must filter through the Blood. You have been sorely tested in recent years. Additionally, I have permitted My Kids to envision themselves in a naked sense, without Me. Furthermore, there's been an unveiling of the flesh, a recognition that no good thing can come out of anyone who refuses to walk in, and with, Christ. Some have been allowed to fail and fall for a season, in order to reach an end of self and promote a holy appetite for that higher life, and full dependency upon the Author and Finisher of Faith. You've asked about signs and wonders of late...the Glory Dust, Gems, Oil and other manifestations. Well, this is only the beginning. The Glory to Glory transition and transformation involve both the internal and external...from renewing your mind, healing that body, to impacting and decorating your surroundings with Heaven's contents! You will come forth as Gold. Such is to be the case with everything that hand touches. Don't be afraid, as I take you into the darkest of locales for the greatest of miracles!"
