It’s Time To Grow In Grace.

Dear Saints, I have a powerful word from the Lord to the Body of Christ given through my dear friend and pastor.  Please prayerfully receive the following word.

Beginning of word:

“My people, listen to Your Heavenly Father this day…for I bring you news that will deeply affect your life & walk with Me. For there is nothing more important than My love for you, I truly love you with an everlasting love. But, for many My love has not taken root or grown as I have desired. So many are still stuck in old life patterns…so many are still affected by past life errors & mistakes…so many are still tormented by things that they have experienced. It is time for you to let go of these things & take on My love anew…for now, My people, I am calling you to truly grow in My grace.

Does not My word tell you to “grow in grace & knowledge of the Lord & Savior Jesus Christ…” (2 Pet. 3:18)? My people know this verse, but how many have excelled in taking this verse to heart & have actually abounded in it? To grow in My grace, is to grow in MY LOVE. To grow in knowledge means to increase in INTIMACY with Me! So many will say that they love Me & have intimacy with Me, but much of this is only lip service, both to others & unto Me. For if you will be honest with yourselves & look at your lives you will find the answer right in front of you…where you truly stand on these!

So many have come to Me & begun to run the race before them as My words were deeply planted within their hearts. Many have run hard & fast to go with Me where ever I would go…but over time, after trials & situations…over time, after hardships & letdowns, many have allowed the enemy to sneak in distractions, sneak in disillusionment, sneak in many things that take away from My plans for your lives & have effectively caused your growth to stagnate & stop. Look at your lives, My people & see for yourselves. Let the truth that is there take hold of you & bring you back to Me!

I do not want you to miss what I am going to do in this new year of 2020…I want you to experience this new year first hand, with all the excitement, with all of the rejoicings that SO many are going to experience. It is not too late, My people…there is still time to respond unto Me & seek My face. There is still time that you can set your hands to the plow & stop looking back at what used to be. Let go of those things that have held onto you over these past many years & allow My grace to flood your souls & heal you…let My love captivate your life, so you can see anew again.

For My reward is with Me & those who will heed My call & take action, they will see things change for them quickly…for the old things will pass away & behold, all things will become new…again. For My reward will engulf you with My passion & My grace will abound within you & you will find yourself changing in ways that have never been before. Your heart will take on new vision as you begin to see things from My heart & you will never be the same again. This is your hour, My people…do not let this time pass you by, by thinking you can do this later, for later may be too late!

You do not want to fall to the wayside, where the birds can eat the seeds that were sown in you…but you also do not want to stay in a place where roots of bitterness or unforgiveness still have a hold on you…or in a place where the cares of this life or the lust for other things are choking you. Receive My love & grace anew & shake yourselves free from all of these things & begin to truly see again as I see. Do not let shame or self ridicule keep you from taking your place…there is no shame in coming to repentance…there is no ridicule in doing what you know is right…embrace Me anew!

Take your place in this new year, My people…make yourself ready to stand & be counted in My number…for what is ahead for you is glorious & you do not want to miss out on any of it. For those who will say “yes” to Me & My words, will receive My answers from Heaven. These will My glory fall upon & be energized anew…for old things will pass away & all things will become new. Do not receive these words as a rebuke or a chastisement…for that is not My intention. Receive these words, for what they are…they are words of love to each of you, to bring you closer to My embrace.

Hear Me, My people & allow My Spirit to reach deep within each of you…allow Me to minister unto you in your heart of hearts, so that nothing else will matter, but you being with Me. For as the remainder of that verse above does say, “…To Him be the glory both now & forever. Amen” (2 Pet. 3:18). For as you will honor My words in your hearts & lives, you WILL bring glory to Me…for My words will be life to those who find them & health to all their flesh. Take what I have given you this day & begin to run hard after Me…for as you will do this, you will not be disappointed, says the Lord”.

End of word.

Dear Saints,

This is such a powerful word and I am so excited about what the Lord is doing in this hour.  Which, this brings me to another matter that the Lord has released me to share with you all.

As many of you already know, I have been waiting for the Lord to open up doors for me to get new clients for my home-based business.  I haven’t had a client in years and have been relying solely on donations from Saints for my sustenance.  Well, a few months ago a dear sister-in-the-Lord who regularly gave a huge donation each month suddenly wasn’t able to give anymore until the Lord makes a way for her again.  However, her monthly donations covered the majority of my expenses.

So, it has been so long since her donations that I now barely get by.  I may even have to go back to getting my food from the different places here that hand out food for the needy.  That’s really not an issue for me other than it’s hard to eat healthy when I have to rely on those places for food.  They usually hand out what is donated to them by local stores and rarely do they have healthy food.

Howbeit, because of all this, I began looking for a job or some way to make money from home to pay for my needs.  But the Lord told me to stop it.  He said that He’s not against me working, but because I was trying to fix my financial situation by my own understanding, I was relying on the arm of the flesh instead of trusting and relying on Him for my provision.  He then reminded me of His written promise that He gives us the power to gain wealth so that He may establish His covenant with us (Deut. 8:18).  And He also reminded me of all that He has taught me over the past years in the area of the business which He has called me to.  And He told me that I must wait on Him to open the doors for this work so that He can establish His covenant instead of Me trying in my own strength to provide for myself.  He continued and said that He will provide for my needs until He opens the doors for me to start working again, which I believe will be this year…

In light of this, He released me to express my hardship to the Body of Christ so that the Saints can help carry my burden and thus fulfill the law of Christ (Galatians 6:2).  I am so grateful to those who do help me with my needs and I pray the Lord abundantly blesses you all in return for your faithfulness.  But if anyone else can help me out with my needs until the Lord opens the door for me to work again, I would greatly appreciate it.

Much love and blessings to you all.

Your Brother in Christ,

Kevin B.

Breakthrough….It’s Time To Win Your War!

Dear Saints,

Our heavenly Father is really encouraging us to overcome and take our victory this year.  Please prayerfully read the following word from the Father given through my dear friend and pastor…

Beginning of word:

“My People, the time has come…it is time for you to enter into all that I have destined for you to do. I have long awaited this time…for this year is going to be a time of breakthrough…this year is going to be a time of warfare, for it is time for you to win your war! I have told you that I have given unto you exceeding great & precious promises, that by them you might be partakers of My divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. Rejoice, My People, for it is time for you to take your place, in Me, for I have given you a more sure word of prophecy.

You will do well that you take heed to these promises, for they are to you, as unto a light that shines in a dark place until your day dawns & the day-star arises in your hearts! For in these promises, I have given you words of victory…I have given to you words of favor…I have given you all that you need to cross over & possess the land. For it is by these words of promise & illumination that you might war a good warfare. Be careful, My people…be careful, not to neglect the words that I have given unto you, for in them I have given you a gift…the gift of My power…the gift of My victory.

And now, I put you to the remembrance of this, so that you will stir up this gift that is within you…which I have released by My mouth & delivered by My servants. The time of timidity & fear is over…it is time for you to rise up & send the enemy on the run! For I have not given you a spirit of fear, but of power, of love & a sound mind. Shake yourselves free from the shame that the enemy has placed upon you, to deter you from walking in My promises to you…for I declare to you this year is the year of breakthrough…it is the year of recovery…it is the year you stand strong in Me!

Stir yourselves up, My Beloved…so that My promises to you will become active…stir up within you, pure minds, by way of remembrance, so you can arise to this time & accomplish all that I desire for you. It is time for battle, My People…the time of slumber…the time of complacency…the time of compromise is over! It is time to take your place…it is time to put My promises in action in your lives…begin to take up your weapons of spiritual war! For is not My word as a fire & like a hammer that breaks the rock to pieces? Take hold of My FIRE & HAMMER NOW & arise!

For now, is the time & as you will arise & do your part, you will see Me set My engines of war against those things that hold you back…I will break down the walls that your enemy has placed around you & My battle-ax shall break down his towers that have risen over you! These walls & these towers do indeed exist outwardly, but before I can destroy them outwardly, they must be destroyed inwardly…those walls & high towers exist in your mind & have kept you bound for so long. It is time to take your place & see My Hand revealed on your behalf…it is time for your victory!

And here is a MAJOR key to many of you…something that once it has entered into your heart, mind & spirit, will free you & catapult you into battle, for you will have broken down those high things that have worked against you in your heart, mind & spirit! Remember Joash & how I spoke through My servant Elisha. What did I tell him? Put thine hand upon the bow. And Joash put his hand upon it. Then I had Elisha put his hands upon Joash’s hands. And Elisha said, Open the window eastward. And he opened it. Then Elisha said, Shoot. And Joash obeyed Me & shot out the arrow.

Then Elisha said, The arrow of the LORD’S deliverance & the arrow of deliverance from Syria…for you shalt smite the Syrians in Aphek until you have consumed them. Then Elisha said, take the arrows. And Joash took them. And Elisha said unto Joash, Smite upon the ground. And Joash smote the ground three times, but then STOPPED! My Spirit was grieved & Elisha was angry with Joah & said, you should have smitten the ground 5 or 6 times; then you would have smitten Syria until you had consumed it…whereas now you shall only smite Syria but three times. Receive this for you!

Many of you have risen up to battle in the past & have done as I have told you to do…you saw some victories, but for whatever reason, things ultimately did not work out as you had thought & you gave up. In essence, your response was similar to how Joash responded. You may have struck the enemy three times, but then you stopped & you gave up. I am calling you to rise up again, only this time, do not be like Joash, who walked in a limiting mindset…stand fast in Me & strike until the walls come down & the towers are destroyed, for as you will take My mindset, you will see victory!

Never forget that My promises ARE sure, My People! Be sure to recognize that My words work together. Yes, they work together for your good…they also work together according to your obedience & also according to your disobedience. Stop being deceived, My People, for I am not mocked…whatsoever a man sows, that SHALL he also reap. If you sow to your flesh, you shall of your flesh reap corruption, but if you sow to the Spirit, you shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting. Be not weary in well-doing, for always is in due season you shall reap if you do not faint.

I love you all with an everlasting love…please stop fainting, My People…stop giving up! You must rid yourselves of all fear, doubt & unbelief. Stir yourselves up! Reclaim your hold on My promises & run with them again…only this time, don’t be like Joash & limit Me…continue to fight…continue to beat against those walls…for just as with Jericho, they WILL come down. BE as My People there…they kept marching around the walls, praising Me & trusting Me for the victory. Just imagine how tired they must have been after going all the way around the walls of Jericho for 6 full days!

They were tired…their feet hurt & many of them scoffed at the foolishness of their actions. But, still, they persevered & pressed on! Then on the 7th day, they went around Jericho 7 times! I want YOU to have the same zeal & dedication as they did…they didn’t even have My Spirit within them as you do today. Never forget that “due season” is a reality for each of you. Everyone has their own due season…you cannot compare yours to someone else’s. Your due season WILL come if you don’t faint! Rise up this year, My people…follow Me & you will not be disappointed, says the Lord”.

Praise the Lord.  I am so excited about the victories and breakthroughs we will all experience beginning this year.

Also, if these words bless or help you in any way, please consider a donation for my expenses as the Lord has me relying on donations from others for my income.  And I pray the Lord abundantly blesses in return all those who do give.

Love and blessings to you all.

Your Brother in Christ,

Kevin Barrett

2020 – A Year Of Unveiled & Fulfilled Vision.

Dear Saints,

I am so excited about this year.  Please prayerfully read the following word from our heavenly Father given through my dear friend and pastor…

Word from the Father:

“My people, hear the words of your Father, for I come to you to give you a future & a hope! I want each of you to know that I love you with an everlasting love. I say this because there are some who deep down question this as a reality in their lives. They believe this because of things they have experienced…they believe this because of things that have befallen them…they believe this because of things that the enemy has used to trip them up from fully entering into the freedom & liberty that My love, joy & peace does bring. 2020 is going to change this for many, so enter into My joy!

Over the past many years, so many of My people have been buffeted by trials, circumstances & situations that have left them empty & bewildered. Their cry has reached My ears…”if You truly did love me, why would you let all these things happen to me?” Hear Me, My dear people & understand that many of these things were necessary & allowed for reasons that you will soon find out. For it is expedient that just as with My Son, you learn obedience by the things that you suffer. Believe it or not, I have allowed these things to help you to be strong…for I have answered your prayers to Me!

For have you not prayed & asked Me to make you like Jesus? Have you not deeply desired to walk like Him? Has not your heart hungered & thirst for righteousness? Rejoice, O My people…for many of you, I have allowed to go through so many things because of your own heart’s desire. I have purposed you to partake of His sufferings, so you could be conformed to the image of My Son. For, to many this is the only way, because of things that have not been dealt with in the heart & mind. But, as you have gone through these many experiences, many of you have responded to Me with a humble & contrite heart.

For you have seen these things, as I have allowed them to come, knowing that all things work together for YOUR good. Many of you didn’t fully understand this…many of you received this, because only pleasing Me matters most to you. But, in any case, you received it, because deep down in your heart, you trusted Me to bring you through to the other side. And to you, this day I bring you glad tiding of great joy! For just as you have just celebrated the birth of My Son, even so, will you very soon be catapulted into your destiny, as you embrace My words to you this day for the year 2020.

Many of you are going to cross over in understanding for your lives, as you never have before. Because of My working within your hearts over the past years, I have caused you to yield the peaceable fruit of righteousness, by all that you have gone through. And through this process, you have become vessels more fit for your Master’s use & will now find things opening up for you in ways you never thought possible. For in this coming new year I am going to open your understanding & VISION as never before. Before, you only saw as through a glass darkly, but very soon you will see face to face.

For I will show you things to come as you submit your lives to Me in this coming year…I will open your eyes to know what you couldn’t see this last year. And for many, a huge frustration will be removed from you, as you begin to see things as they truly are…you will say, it was as if you were blind, but now you see! Many of you will find yourselves compelled to begin fasting, as the drive of My Spirit rises up within you & you will be amazed at what is soon to come, for as you respond to the inner working of My spirit which is soon going to reveal itself, you will rise into your place in Me.

For all that is behind you will be past & only what is ahead will matter. For many shall be made free from their “pasts” & will walk in unhindered liberty for the first time in many, many years. Only do not look for how this is going to happen because it will not come by observation…for the Kingdom of God is within you, so look within your own hearts! For there is where your answers will come from. For I will speak to your hearts & minds a new…you will not consider things from your old mindset that has hindered you by fear, doubt & unbelief…but you will see things as I want you to see them.

For I will open up your VISION & you will see things in a way, that was not possible for you just a short time before…this is because you have entered into the place of My change for you…change from that which was old, to that which always has been, but was unseen. For it will be your mindset that will be renewed…as old things are passed away & behold all things have become new. Many of you will be astounded as this veil comes off of you, that has kept you in this bondage for many years! You will see with unveiled eyes…you will understand with an unveiled mind & you will walk with an unveiled heart.

The truth is, the greatest breakthroughs are about to come to you…but not because of your circumstances changing…not because of your situations changing…the breakthroughs will come because of your unveiled vision of how things really are. For truly it has been your corrupt understanding…truly it has been your compromised faith in Me…truly it has been your complacent obedience that has kept you back. For when your understanding, faith & obedience are in line with Me & My will, there is nothing that can be withheld from you…for your heart will only desire to run hard after Me.

Please do not try to “figure” this out…for that will only complicate things…I need you to just trust Me for your lives. I need you to truly know that I love you with an everlasting love & no matter what happens, this love will be resident within you & unshakable. I want you to enter into the joy of your Lord! You must be found faithful in all you do. Never forget the stewardship that each of you has been given, which should show your life response & faithfulness of your love to Me. Let the scales come off your eyes, even now & see as I see & know as I know, so you can walk, as I walk. This you can do, but only through Me.

For in a very short time I am going to take the scales off many of your eyes…very soon you will feel as if you are as light as a feather, as My freedom erupts from deep within you & you come face to face with My love, as never before. There will be joy unspeakable & full of My glory! Many of you will soon possess My anointing in ways you would never have thought of as My glory surrounds you wherever you go. You will carry the kingdom of God around you, as a cloud & others will know this, as they witness My love & power through you. Your lives will never be the same again & your joy will be full!

2020 will be the year this happens. To some, it will come quickly…as those who’s hearts truly cry out for more of Me, become even more desperate! To others, it may take longer, depending on your sincerity & the response from your inner man…for there will be things that must be dealt with on an inner level for some, that still haven’t been reconciled to Me. Nonetheless, 2020 will be a year, unparalleled in each of your lives…just be sure to let go of all you are & allow Me to mold you during this time. You will not regret this, at all…you will come to the place that you have longed for, says the Lord”.

End of word.

Hallelujah! I’m so excited about what God is doing and this word further confirms the last word I posted.  Great things are coming for those who will take hold of it.

On another note, I ask that if anyone is able to donate anything for my financial needs, no matter the amount, it would be greatly appreciated. And I wish you all a very Happy New Year!

Blessings to you all,

Kevin B.
