Going higher, and applying the blood of the Lamb

August 14, 2005

Yesterday both Dave & I awoke having had dreams with the same message; move to higher ground. We prayed with friends last night to know what this meant. That night I had a dream where we were going to higher ground, and in the dream the Holy Spirit instructed us to pray that the blood of Jesus would flow over us and all we prayed for.

In praying this morning about how to apply the blood, the Lord gave me the following Word. As its message seems to be of benefit to us all, I want to share it with you. It is as follows;

“Jesus said that if we confess His name before man, He will confess our names before His Father’s angels[1]. But if we are ashamed of Him, He will be ashamed of us. We are to confess His name, walking in the Spirit of His Testimony, the Testimony of Jesus. Those who have this Testimony in them overcome satan by the blood of the Lamb and the word of their testimony [2].

Some will lose their lives, and some will lose their ministries because what they say is not pleasing. They will lose their popularity because they loved not their own lives unto death.

Those who are too ashamed to speak My words, to prophesy, will come to Me and say “Lord, you know me. I cast out demons in your name” and many such things. But they will not have overcome by the blood, neither will My blood protect them from the judgment of the Lamb. Pray to have His blood covering you, protecting you. He will tell His angels your name, and you will be spared. His angels are ready and waiting for the seal of God, the Passover blood, to be applied to the foreheads of the servants of God (Rev 7:2,3; 9:4). Be not ashamed of the blood which speaks[3], for he who seeks to save his life, who loves his life and this world, will lose it[4].

See as an example Jacob, who did not settle for the inheritance of the world. He left Laban and wrestled with God[5]. He overcame man and God to obtain the spiritual inheritance he was promised. Can you, who have the Holy Spirit indwelling, do less? Will you settle for an inheritance in this world and the fellowship of men, at the expense of serving the one true God, or will you lay your life down and serve Him? “. This is what the Lord said to me this morning.
