I was watching the video of Kari Jobe and as I watched her sing the Lord just impressed me to be so happy, to appreciate and love where I am at in my life. I am 48, soon to be 49 and the reason I choose to share that quiet moment was I want to share the revelation I received.
You know it would be easy for me to look at a young person and think to be 28 - 29 years old, with all that I have acquired, learned and experienced in my life now! But, it doesn't work that way, 20 years from now all those 28 - 29 year old's will be looking back and thinking the same thing.

We need to embrace where we are at. We each are born for the exact time we are in for a purpose. It is all in His timing and plan for each of us.

I say all that to get to this, over and over we are hearing the prophesies of the rising up/stepping up and new move of the youth. This needs to be embraced and not looked at with jealously or just sitting by thinking....OK, tag you're it, it's your turn. God is using a new thing to confound the wise, but we must be aware of and look for it. It is not for us to ignore because we are older or to try to "become" as a youth. It is for us to be flexible, pliable to the new move of God.

This is not to say that one of the largest groups of this generation here on earth, the Baby Boomer's are no longer important. In their youth they changed and saw so many changes. Now hearing many prophesies saying it is time for the youth to rise may sting. Possibly making them feel they are being put out to pasture, but that is not true. This Baby Boomer generation changed so much and still does, but now it is time for all to be ready to listen to the new beat. Just because it has never been that way before, really doesn't mean a thing. Now, be ready to changed and flow with the Youth in the Kingdom of God, as God opens doors and ways for the youth. Be ready to do things you have never done before. God has said through many prophetic leaders... "the times they are a changing".

Bob Dylan sang that years ago during a turbulent time of changing. It was an unofficial anthem to a rising youth demanding change, now it's God's turn. Oh, the times they are a changing......

Be prepared for the blowing of the Wind, the shift. Sense within your heart what God is asking you to change, what you are to do different. Scary,... Maybe, but I promise not as scary as the truth.....if you are not wiling to move with the Wind of God, you will not see the fullness, the greatest God has prepared for you.

TRUST, do you trust Him?

When you are young you feel you have nothing to loose, but even a greater fact, when you are in Christ you have absolutely nothing to lose when you let go of the old and embrace the new in Christ Jesus.

What am I talking about, honestly I don't have all the details, it's just a sensing, a tug on my heart. To change doesn't mean to act like your younger, trying to be cool, hip ( lol, it doesn't work). It means to be who God made you to be, whatever your age. Embrace the path you have walked, it made you who you are in Christ! For the youth,.. be there for them, to pray, guide and encourage. How much during your walk you would have loved to have a mentor, counselor, spiritual father/mother as you grew in the Lord. Embrace the changes with God and He will use all you have been through for you to be the best in all that God brings to you.

My desire,... no matter your age you will surrender your heart to Him, so that you can be used to the fullest level you have been designed to be for the Kingdom.

Things have been interesting for me in the last few days and that’s not saying its been bad or hard, but I truly believe we are in the greatest moment in understanding and hearing the voice of God. I listen and read from many men and women of God and the same theme is being sung, but I am personally hearing this loud and clear in my own heart. There has clearly been a shift we feel it and know it, but we are not seeing it. It is a bit frustrating wanting it so bad yet, not seeing the promises we Know are there. I remind myself of the verse in Daniel. Daniel 10:13
But for twenty-one days the spirit prince of the kingdom of Persia blocked my way. Then Michael, one of the archangels, came to help me, and I left him there with the spirit prince of the kingdom of Persia.

We must understand that the same is going on right now. All to steal our joy, frustrate us and to just plain start questioning God. We all need to press in and to remember God has gone before us and he is for us and because he is for us, What can anyone do to us. It about Knowing. Knowing he has called you, Knowing he loves you and Knowing all the promises God has given you, he will complete.

To walk in the Knowledge that is not just about Trusting and Doing (praying, asking for prayer….etc), it is about Trusting and Knowing (rest, resting in the truth of His word). Knowing you are called exactly where you are at and that you are on the path God has made for you, that God has gone before us and has already made the way and is wanting us to get to “that” place of….. God is with me. He has set His angels in charge of me and My personal angel is with me, all is in the hands of Jesus. God wanting us to connect the dots and to lean into His understanding, to have His peace to finish this race with the strength and authority He has already given us.

I have a friend that was in another country many year ago. He was preaching and the official government of that country was not please with his presents and the name of Jesus. It soon became apparent his life was in extreme danger as the official wanted him dead to prove they were not going to put up with this. The other preachers from that country concerned for his life put him in a taxi and sent him to the airport. He fortunately had his bible and passport with him, but everything else he had was left at his hotel. To concerned the soldiers would be waiting for him at the hotel, there was no wisdom in picking up his things. At the airport he got out of the taxi, one of the young preacher had followed behind the taxi. He grabbed my friend and told him I am going to get you on a plane and out of here. There were soldiers there at the airport, they were there to stop him from boarding a plane, but as they got in the airport the crowd of people started this huge brawl. The soldiers turned their attention to the fighting to stop the fighting and missed them walking in. The two walked into a concrete room with one wooden chair, as the young preacher walked out he said “do not leave this room and if anyone says I told them to come get you, do not go with them, wait for me”, the door closed. My friend said in that moment, sitting in that wooden chair there was nothing I could do, I just had to wait and I knew I was getting on a plane.

I picture my friend sitting there in that concrete room, sitting in a wooden chair…..waiting. It made me think,… that is where Knowing becomes a Reality. Yes, my friend was praying in the Holy Ghost, but at that very moment knowing God has already had the way home was the most important thought. My friend told me there was no fear, God had opened the way to be there, to preach, see miracles and see many lives changed and what God starts( asks you to do) God completes.

The young preacher opened the door, walked him through the employee area, on the tarmac to the next plane taking off, watched him get on that plane and off to England my friend went.

Do you feel like you are in that concrete room with a wooden chair and have no idea what is going to happen next? Then Trust in the Knowing, Knowing God has gone before you, made the way and you will make it through. You will receive the rest and peace, the promises God has been promising you.

The past couple of weeks I have this thought that just keeps rolling and rolling around in my mind. In the last few months of 2011 I was standing on and calling forth different prophesy that have been said over me in the past years. Charlie and I made it a point to specifically remind ourselves of these things. Many who are prophetic are calling for turnaround in this coming year, all that many of us have been waiting on to come to pass. I agree with this and have been reading many prophesies to help encourage myself and to build myself up to be even stronger in my Faith. In the word it tell us to seek wisdom, God will give wisdom as we ask for it. In Proverbs 24:3-4 it states:
It takes wisdom to build a house, and understanding to set it on firm foundation: it takes knowledge to furnish its rooms with fine furniture and and beautiful draperies.

God tells us that he will give wisdom to us, all we need to do is ask. But the understanding is from our part, our action. We must pursue the word, time alone Listening to what the Lord is wanting to tell us personally. He is wanting to direct our paths. In direction and that time of listening to His voice we get the Knowledge! Knowledge is the instruction in what to do. Not to worry, to complain, but sit listen and then act. Whether you read the word, sitting alone listening to Him, hear a message, receive a prophesy or sitting there watching a TV show and God drops something straight into your mind; take what you have been given and act on it! Activate! Step out or into what you feel in your heart you have received and hold on to it and Do Not let go, because the enemies next goal is to do everything to get you to do exactly that. Quit.

Look at Mark 4:4-8
As he scattered the seed, some of it fell on the road and birds ate it. Some fell in the gravel; it sprouted quickly but didn’t put down roots, so when the sun came up it withered just as quickly. Some fell in the weeds; as it came up, it was strangled among the weeds and nothing came of it. Some fell on good earth and came up with a flourish, producing a harvest exceeding his wildest dreams.

Think about this simple parable. In verse 9 Jesus asks a very important question.

Are you listening to this? Really listening?

Jesus is making it plain to us, He gives us wisdom, it is our job to get understanding. To seek out each and every thing we see, hear and feel. Search out, in doing that He will expand what we see, what we hear and what we feel. When we draw close to him, he will draw close to us.

Starting this year we have been prophesied that we will see a Turnaround. Where did your seed fall for you in hearing that? In the word, story after story it is laid out for us. This is what the situation is, they did this and that is what happened. Every circumstance laid out for us to search out the understanding and to act upon it in our own situations. Do not be like Gehazi, Elisha servant who was under the strongest anointing of his time and walked away with nothing. He sat under it and around it and it never got in him as his own to produce his harvest.

I have been waiting for a long time on many promises….
I am not letting go. I am searching for all the understanding I can to move into the Knowledge, the instructions from my Father to move into that place. I take that foundation, the understanding has build through trust and faith and move into Knowledge so with Jesus, filling my rooms with everything God has promised me throughout the years!

I pray the same for you!
