Desperate for Jesus!! The Narrow Door



Isaiah 26:9


My soul yearns for You in the night; in the morning my spirit longs for You.




It has been a sort of race now to try and do what we need to do to make the Rapture of the Bride of Christ and for some of us is the realization that entering Heaven is not so automatic or easy.

Jesus is ready and He is waiting for just a few more of us to get all clean. He says that He is coming for a spotless Bride. He also says that His coming will surprise many.. Rev:16:15

"Behold, I come like a thief! Blessed is he who stays awake and keeps his clothes with him, so that he may not go naked and be shamefully exposed."


The angels are waiting eagerly to see the sons of God revealed and so is the whole creation as evidenced in these scriptures:-

Rom 8:19 - The creation waits in eager expectation for the sons of God to be revealed.and Rev. 19:7 the creatures in Heaven rejoice saying: Let us rejoice and be glad and give Him glory! For the Wedding of The Lamb has come, and His Bride has made herself ready.
And reference is made on her clothes in verse 8 which says; "Fine linen, bright and clean was given her to wear." (Fine linen stands for the righteous acts of the saints)

Keeping our clothes with us is covering ourselves with righteous acts, the Bible says that He who does what is right is righteous, and that our righteousness comes by faith in Christ Jesus and that God is the one who wills for us to do good. We are also told to always carry with us a burning lamp with extra oil for we know not when the Messiah, Our Bridegroom will come.

Some may think that they are standing, that they are ready and will sit and wait but the Lord says that such will be very upset when they find that they are left behind.

Luke 13:22-27
22 Then Jesus went through the towns and villages, teaching as he made his way to Jerusalem.
23 Someone asked him, "Lord, are only a few people going to be saved?" He said to them,

24 "Make every effort to enter through the narrow door, because many, I tell you, will try to enter and will not be able to.
25 Once the owner of the house gets up and closes the door, you will stand outside knocking and pleading, 'Sir, open the door for us.' "But he will answer, 'I don't know you or where you come from.'
26 "Then you will say, 'We ate and drank with you, and you taught in our streets.'
27 "But he will reply, 'I don't know you or where you come from. Away from me, all you evildoers!'


So it is not wise to assume that you are ok and that when the Lord appears in His Glory to transfigure His Bride (1 Cor 15:51,52), that you will be a part of it.

He also says in Matt 22:11-14
11 "But when the king came in to see the guests, he noticed a man there who was not wearing wedding clothes.
12 'Friend,' he asked, 'how did you get in here without wedding clothes?' The man was speechless.
13 "Then the king told the attendants, 'Tie him hand and foot, and throw him outside, into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.'
14 "For many are invited, but few are chosen."


and in Zephaniah 1:8


8 On the day of the LORD's sacrifice I will punish the princes and the king's sons and all those clad in foreign clothes.

In the parable of the Ten Virgins in Matt 25:1-13 we are cautioned to Keep watch, because we do not know the day or the hour and to carry oil (Holy Spirit) in our lamps for the midnight hour for when the Groom comes. (We are the vessels/lamps carrying The Holy Spirit as is shown in Act 1:4,5,8; Luke 3:21,22; 4:1;  Acts 4:8; Acts 7:55)

Gone is the time for running after the riches of this world, buying of oil and handkerchiefs and prayer clothes. The Wise Christian, Bride of Christ, is he who seeks the true things of God and thirsts for the Holy Spirit and His guidance. The wise can testify that the Power of the Holy Spirit is moving so powerfully right now in their circles just like He promised in Joel 2:28-32.

But for the foolish christian, the one who is chasing to buy miracles and is besotted with the things of this world, the Bridegroom will come and not finding her ready, will leave her because she has chosen the world (1 John 2:15-17) over true riches (Kingdom of God - 1 Cor 2:10).

Life on this earth is about to turn sour, - 1 Thess 5:3 - and extreemly painful.

Choose Jesus now! He is waiting for you for God did not appoint you to suffer wrath, but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ (1 Thess 5:9)

God Bless You Mightily!!

WORD OF THE LORD!

Dear Lord Jesus, Open my eyes that I may see wonderful things in your law. I am a stranger on earth; do not hide your commands from me.

My soul is consumed with longing for your laws at all times.
(Psalms 119:18-20)

Your Hands made me and formed me; give me understanding to learn your comands. (Psalms 119:73)

This became my prayer when I received this Word from the Lord through a servant of God (Gary Pentecost).
My most ardent desire since has been to seek the face of my Lord Jesus, to gaze upon Him, to depend entirely on Him, just like in the days of Moses and the Israelites in the desert, when they were told to look upon the bronze snake and those that had been bitten by snakes because of sinning against the Lord would be saved. ( Numbers 21:4-9)

God Bless you all!! - Esther

Word of the Lord

June 8, 2010

I am releasing My Glory as never before, Adam walked in My Glory, Moses walked in My Glory, Elijah walked in My Glory and you can too. My Glory is for those who walk in a pure heart, live a holy life, and remove themselves from the things of this world. To many who call themselves Christians have not separated themselves from the world, in fact, in many cases the world comes before Me. Yes, many go to their church on Sunday and say they love Me but, their actions the rest of the week says different. They sit in a place where the priests preach about Me but they don’t even really know who I am. This breaks My heart that they are not willing to take time to be with Me, it is about building their kingdoms and not building My Kingdom. I am still looking for those who are willing to give it all up for Me and walk daily with Me in My Glory. This is the time to choose which way that you are going to walk. Is it going be that you walk with Me or walk without Me? Says the Lord.

My Children, the time has come to do serious warfare in the spiritual realm. There is a polarization between good and evil that is growing more intense every day. If you could only see into the Spiritual Realm and understand the casualties that are happening each day there, you would more fully understand. The prince of darkness realizes that his time is short and his one and only desire, and what he is focusing all his energies on right now is to block communication between myself and my true Church! He will use any means at his disposal to do so: laziness, lack of prayer, acceptance of the way things are, worldly concerns, outright sin, unforgiveness, bitterness, strife. It doesn't matter the tool he uses as long as his goals are met. My children, mobilize yourselves! build a barrier around yourselves using prayer and intense intercession! do not delay, do it now while there is still time! I am coming quickly to judge the quick and the dead, and my reward is with me, but it will not be given to those whose hearts are not right before me, only to those who possess a true and clean heart."

Here is a message the Lord recently gave me to send to Pastors all over the world. But, it is not just for leaders...it is for ALL of His people, as we are ALL sons of God, whether male or female (sonship):

BEGIN PROPHETIC WORD

"My son, do not fear the many things that you are about to see coming upon the face of the earth, for MANY are not ready for what is about to unfold...I want you to be prepared, so that these things will not overtake you as a thief in the night. For, as I have been with you in times past, even so will I be with in the days ahead. The important thing is to recognize what I am doing & what I am saying to My people on the earth. I call you CLOSER to Me this day...I call you CLOSER than you have ever been before, because what is about to fall upon this world has never been experienced by My people before & they are not ready.

I say "do not fear", for it is not My will for My people to walk in fear of what is happening upon the earth, but to rather fear the Father of Spirits & live. For My fear is not as the fear on the earth. Man fears losing what he thinks he owns...man fears circumstances & situations that he really doesn't have any control over. I want My people to come unto Me. For the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom...but few will truly seek that which I have spoken & commanded them to do. My fear is not one that destroys, but what does build up. Wisdom builds the house, but My people will not seek Me.

The coming shaking will bring drastic change to the way things are...but those that will seek Me early will be safe. For I will cover them...I will provide for them...I will see them through. I say these things not to trouble you, but to let you know in advance, before they happen, so you will not be taken by sudden fear. Look to Me & live...seek My face, My son...seek My face...enter into My presence...break off that which is religious & allow Me to refine you in the flames of My furnace...for I am a consuming fire. Allow the furnace of My love to show you what I am saying...allow the furnace of My love to take you beyond where you have been. Allow Me to make you prepared for the time that is ahead.

What has transpired so far this year, is only a prelude of what is about to take place. Hear Me, My son...the shaking that you have witnessed thus far, is only the beginning. I am good & I take care of My own, but My own have forsaken Me. My own have taken to themselves religious doctrines & agendas that do not truly represent Me on this earth. Man has taken the Holy & has made it profane. It is time that My people come back unto Me while there is still time. As the shaking increases, there will be those that will recognize what is happening & will respond righteously unto Me, but most will only justify what is coming & make excuse to continue in their own schemes.

And now I ask you, o son...will you respond unto Me?...will you hear My voice & come closer?...will you take up the cross, as I have ordained for you & walk as I walk, do as I do & say as I say? For I am coming to you in your private time...I am coming to you in your dreams...I will visit you & show you what I am saying, as you open your heart unto Me. Seek Me, My son...seek Me...the time of "the way things has been" is over...today is the beginning of a new day...& this new day will bring change to all that will walk in it.

You ask Me concerning provision in the times ahead, for you have seen the lack among My people & cry out to Me for change to come. And behold, I bring change...change is on the horizon...this change will make things separated & divided for what they really are. For many that have come unto Me have come with hidden agendas & with idol controlled hearts. And all things will be exposed for what they are & man will see where his true allegiance is...for it is either in Me or in this world. It is to love Me or love the things of this world. This coming time will show things for what they truly are.

I tell you this so you will know before it comes to pass. You will have the upper hand in this & you can use it to your advantage, if you will do as I say...the most important thing for you to do right now is to come CLOSE to Me. Do whatever it takes to come to Me...seek Me in worship & praise...seek Me with fasting & prayers...seek Me like your life depended on it...for actually it truly does. For in the time coming, My people will NEED to hear My voice & know what I am saying for them to do...where they are to go, what they are to say...their very lives will depend on it.

This is a sacred time...this is a time of soul searching & holy desperation, for My heart cries out to My people, but they refuse to hear & respond. I am coming to you because I know that your heart fears Me & that My words are not falling on deaf ears, but on ears that desire to honor Me & to do as I say. That is why I am telling you this, for I know that you will implement them into your life...& you will affect those around you with what I am saying, for you know that the truth must be made known. And know this, o son...that My life is in you...My heart is in you...My hand is upon you & you will walk into your destiny in Me.

So, lift up your head & look unto Me & allow Me to show you the way things really are. For much of what you have been taught & what you have been trained up into, is about to come to a stand still...the great falling away I spoke of in 2 Thess. 2, is about to come & a great majority of those who have called My name, will look somewhere else but Me, as they embrace the things coming on the earth, their true hearts will surface & their true trust will be shown for whose they are & to whom they obey...for the "god of their bellies" (lusts for the things of this earth) will separate them from Me. I will look upon them with tears as they shake their fists at Me & deny My words, & they will go their ways into perdition, as My Spirit cries for them to repent & come unto Me.

I am their answer...I am the answer to all things & those who will come to Me, yes, will truly come to Me will deny themselves, take up their cross daily & follow Me. My cry is going out upon the earth & I am speaking these same words all over the earth. Many of My servants are listening & heeding My cry, for the time is about to come. Listen to Me My son...hear the words of My mouth....for you know My voice...you know My ways & you will now come closer to Me than ever before in the days ahead, for I have a plan for you says God...the plan that I have prepared you for all of your life. You think that the things you have learned have been for ministry or for personal training, but I now tell you, that I have planted things deep within you to prepare you for this day, for you were born for such a time as this.


And the confusion that has nipped at your mind over time is about to be removed & you are going to understand things better then you ever thought possible. For My word is like a puzzle, that man has tried to place pieces here & there, but they wouldn't really fit, but man would force them into that place anyway & say this is what it really means, but I am about to open things up to you in a greater way & you will begin to see what things really mean, for I tell you this right now...as you begin to weigh things...comparing spiritual things with spiritual, you will begin to rightly divide the word of truth. For My word is NOT divided as man would say, but as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats, so do I divide My word. I do not make things difficult, but My way is easy. Just as Christ is the central theme to the entire Bible, even so, is My word balanced & everything fits when it is separated properly & in order.

Man has taken My word & made it a tool for his agendas. The churches have become institutions of learning, instead of living organisms of life. My people learn only man's way, but they hardly ever walk in My truth, their lives being the examples...written epistles seen of all men. I call for My people to have heart knowledge, but man only teaches head knowledge. I don't want fat heads...I want fat hearts. What is heart knowledge you ask? Heart knowledge is what I have cried for in My people. It is a place of intimacy with Me. Where I & My people are ONE...Behold, I have given you this for an example...as Christ is the husband & the church is the bride...doesn't a husband have intimacy with his bride???

But man has taken My promises & My words & made My people shallow & empty, never seeking My face...never coming unto Me & becoming intimate with Me. My people come before Me & seek for Me to meet their needs...they bring their offerings, expecting Me to answer from Heaven & give them what they desire...this is nothing more than being a prostitute before Me...trying to buy My love & affections. But I am looking for a people who will come unto Me & seek My face, burying themselves in Me, seeking to please Me...seeking to honor Me...whose entire lives are an evidence of My grace in them. They love Me with the love that I have given them, instead of loving this present world.

O son, I know that these words may seem grievous to you, but I know your heart does receive them, for I have planted the seed of My life deep within you & My word will accomplish what I please in you & will prosper in the things where I have sent them to do. I love you, My son. now take My words & honor Me with them, deep within your heart. Allow Me to bring them forth in the days ahead & watch what I will do for you, says the Lord".

The Great Tribulation - Apocalyptic Dream

In late July 2009, I had a terrible dream that left me shaken to this day.

In my dream I saw what looked like a wide road and there were a lot of people walking on it. I was talking on my phone and as soon as I finished I looked behind me. In the sky which was clear (blue) I saw smoke coming in from outside the sky into the earth.. the smoke was so dense, it looked like the smoke seen in the 9/11 bombings. It looked terrifying and immediately I saw a hole - a big hole - in the sky and I could see space. Just then this huge figure that looked like a human form appeared, I could only see from the neck to the waist.. I dont know why but I thought that the figure was female. I then saw this figure extend a hand and scoop part of the sky from the hole to the other end of the sky in one motion.

It looked like a road in the sky but I could see outer space and just then I saw what looked like helicopters, uncountable helicopters. They had one occupant per chopper and something inside me triggered and it hit me that these were angels sent to destroy mankind. That very instant I turned and started running looking for a place to hide. I started repenting of my sins loudly and running.. the people around me saw it too and we all started running in a panic, all of us looking for a place to hide.

Immediately the scene changed and I could see myself in a house, I dont know where, I was in a panic, I was looking outside and thinking, 'these angels have been sent to destroy us.. where will I hide'. I knew without doubt that these were not human. I knew that they would be using sharp arrows that had bullet heads.. in my mind, I know that they would not be using normal human force but the force with which they would attack would be many times more that of a man. So as I looked at a house to hide, I was avoiding places with window, roofing that was not concrete or any place that would permit entry from outside.

I remember such terror.. terror that I pray I never experience. Before they could start the attack I woke up.. I had such a strong urge to read the book of Revelations but I didnt know where to read and I remember resisting the urge because I was afraid of confirming that this was not just a dream..

I later on read the Bible in Rev 9:1-11 :

9:1 And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth:
and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit.

9:2 And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as
the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by
reason of the smoke of the pit.

9:3 And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was
given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power.

9:4 And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth,
neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not
the seal of God in their foreheads.

9:5 And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should
be tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a
scorpion, when he striketh a man.

9:6 And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire
to die, and death shall flee from them.

9:7 And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle; and
on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were as the
faces of men.

9:8 And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of
lions.

9:9 And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron; and the sound of
their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle.

9:10 And they had tails like unto scorpions, and there were stings in their tails: and
their power was to hurt men five months.

9:11 And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit,
whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hathhis name Apollyon.


These dream brought to me the scripture that says that 'people would run and look for somewhere to hide and find none, they would beg mountains to fall on them to cover them but they found no refuge'.

The wrath of God is about to descend on this earth. Jesus is coming for His Holy and elect bride just before the great tribulation starts.

I have since been repenting and asking Jesus to prepare me for His coming according to the book of Jude, verse 24:
1:24 Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless
before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy.


I am very glad that I had this dream because, this was an invitation to take up my invitation to the wedding feast of the Lamb, Rev 19:9:

19:9 And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the
marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true
sayings of God.


This was a call to live in holiness, without which no one will see God (Heb 12:14)

I realise that others have been having dreams and visions that they know are not just dreams. When we look at the Bible and all the people who had dreams, they were disturbed by these dreams, a realization that these were not just dreams. I believe that your spirit would not let you rest if it is a dream from God or a warning.

This is a spiritual awakening, just like God said in Joel 2:28 - 32:

2:28 And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh;
and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream
dreams, your young men shall see visions:

2:29 And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour
out my spirit.

2:30 And I will shew wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and
pillars of smoke.

2:31 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the
great and the terrible day of the LORD come.

2:32 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the LORD
shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as
the LORD hath said, and in the remnant whom the LORD shall call.


If you have already accepted Jesus Christ as you Lord, and source of hope and Salvation, then pray that God would fill you with the Holy Spirit and to strengthen you since the coming of our Lord Jesus will only be seen by those who are spiritually mature. You must have your spiritual eyes opened so that you can see Him when He comes in the clouds and hear the trumpet call of the Archangel.

If you do not know Jesus as your saviour and redeemer, the one who takes away all sin and washes all stain of sin to make one, as white as snow.. (Isaiah 1:18, Rev 22:14)
Then call on Him today and pray this prayer:

"Lord Jesus, I believe that you are the Son of God, I believe that you died and rose again and that you are seated in God's right hand in heaven. Lord Jesus, please forgive me because I know and confess that I am a sinner. I repent and I ask you to wash me with your Holy blood and make me as white as snow. I welcome you into my heart and ask you to be the Lord of my life. Save me now and keep me, fill me with your Holy Spirit and reveal your truth to me. Please write my name in the Book of Life. I believe that I am saved and I thank you Lord Jesus".

If you prayed this prayer then know that you are saved and that your name has just been added in the Lamb's Book of Life and your name has just been embroidered in your place at the table of the Wedding Feast of the Lamb.

Pray everyday and read the Bible, find a good Bible based church to fellowship in and constantly ask Jesus to wash you with His Holy blood in the spirit of repentance.

Glory Be to Our Lord Jesus and Honor.
He loved us so much that He laid down His life to give a chance to enter the Land of the Living, the Kingdom of Heaven.
Halleluja.
