Trust Me to help with your mountains

David Stark — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 07:30:38 +0000

You have heard that this is a time of sustained victory, you have heard that this is a time to rule and legislate over your surroundings and circumstances. ‘But how do you do that?’, I hear you say. By giving me access to your circumstances, situations and surroundings. For when you hold onto them with worry, apprehension fear and panic, they become like mountains in your hands. You cry out with your voice to me to help you with your mountains, but they are not mountains. Let go and put your trust in me. Instead of your mountain, lay hold of me and of my word and put your trust in me and see how small these things truly are.

I am the Almighty One, creator and sustainer of all things. Is anything too difficult for me? My very word sustains the universe, every planet, every sun and star. This is not difficult for me so why hold onto your mountains and seemingly immovable objects when in actual fact they do not even amount to a spot on the landscape of the universe. Give me access to every area of your life by trusting in me and waiting on me, for those who wait on me will never be disappointed. (Romans 10:11; Psalms 22:5) I am your God and I sustain all things by the power of my word, and that includes you. Trust me and walk with me and you will rule and reign and you will walk in victory.

Hebrews 1:3-4 (NASB)
And He is the radiance of His glory and the exact representation of His nature, and upholds all things by the word of His power. When He had made purification of sins, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high, having become as much better than the angels, as He has inherited a more excellent name than they.

Jeremiah 32:27 (NASB)
Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh; is anything too difficult for Me?

The Ark

David Stark — Thu, 02 Feb 2012 07:30:08 +0000

God has set your course. Just as He set the course of the ark that Noah and his family were in, so He has set your course. Any course corrections that need to be made this year will come from Him. Take your hands off and see what God will do – no matter what the storms, no matter the chaos that surrounds you, allow Him to steer your life. As you do this you will have the ability and freedom to concentrate on what He has called you to do.

Many of you this year will be pulling others from the storms of life. You will be bringing them into the safety of the Ark of God and allowing them to experience the rest and peace of God – the same rest and peace that you will be experiencing, as you allow Father God to steer your course.

Genesis 6:18
But I will establish my covenant with you, and you will enter the ark—you and your sons and your wife and your sons’ wives with you.

Psalm 18:2
The LORD is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.

Spread abroad the fragrance

David Stark — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 07:30:48 +0000

A ship stands in the harbour, tied to the dock, looking and longing to move out to the openness of the sea. The ship is filled full of various kinds of spices: cinnamon, all spice, cloves and so on. The Lord would say to you that the time of your release has come, no more delay. It is time to sail, to spread abroad the fragrances that He has loaded into your life.

Movements to the right and to the left will be easy as you sail into open waters. There are many stops that the Lord has planned for you and many lives for you to sow into, each with the speciality of the spices you carry. Many will be drawn to you as they smell the fragrance of that which you carry. Just move as He directs!

John 12:3
Then Mary took about a pint of pure nard, an expensive perfume; she poured it on Jesus’ feet and wiped his feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume.

Song of Solomon 7:13
The mandrakes send out their fragrance, and at our door is every delicacy, both new and old, that I have stored up for you, my beloved.

Psalm 45:8
All your robes are fragrant with myrrh and aloes and cassia; from palaces adorned with ivory the music of the strings makes you glad.

The Apple Tree

David Stark — Tue, 31 Jan 2012 07:30:27 +0000

I see an apple tree; it is full of fruit, but littering the ground below it are the apples that have fallen.

I watch as the farmer arrives to bring in the harvest – he carries baskets for the ripened fruit. He begins to pick the apples from the tree and carefully puts each one into his baskets. He is happy that there is such a good harvest this year.

Which apple are you? Are you the apple of the harvest, carefully picked and placed in the basket? Or do you see yourself as an apple lying discarded below the tree, separated and alone?

The LORD would say to you today, “All have a purpose, none shall be wasted”.

The apples on the ground, they feed the birds of the air and the animals of the field. As they begin to soften they feed the worms of the soil; their sweetness is taken by the butterfly. As the apple begins to break up it returns to the soil and its seeds take hold and a new apple tree is born.

Mathew 6:25-30
And why do you worry about clothes? See how the lillies of the field grow. They do not labour or spin. Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendour was dressed like one of these. If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?

Listen for new strategies

David Stark — Mon, 30 Jan 2012 07:30:14 +0000

I am releasing strategies from Heaven, says God. Strategies to open up the ground beneath your feet; strategies to release my Glory. For you are one of my soldiers and I have called you into position for such a time as this.

So listen to my promptings and guidance, as I position you be obedient to my orders and commands. Move at the right time, for you are part of a great army, the army which will see the return of my Glory to this land. So take heart, have courage and go out, knowing that I have got you covered – covered with my blood and with my angelic protection. Take heart, for victory is already ours because it is finished and I will have my Glory arise and cover the earth.

Psalm 60:12
With God we shall gain the victory and he will trample down our enemies.

The Father’s loving gaze is upon you

David Stark — Fri, 27 Jan 2012 07:30:15 +0000

A mother stands at the side of the cradle, watching lovingly as the little one sleeps. Her husband drapes a blanket over her shoulders and stands behind her holding her tight. The two of them gaze in awe and love at the little one asleep in the cradle.

Father God would say to you this day that, even in your slumber and your sleep, He is watching over you with such love and adoration. Such love, such love, such love is this for you! Never will He leave you; never will He forsake you, never, never, never!

Isaiah 49:15-16
Can a mother forget the baby at her breast and have no compassion on the child she has borne? Though she may forget, I will not forget you!
See, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands; your walls are ever before me.

You are a servant of the King

David Stark — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 07:30:09 +0000

The King lives! He is alive, He reigns and He is enthroned on high. Come, you servants of the Lord, come and serve your King. Do not despair at the world around you because King Jesus, the Anointed One still reigns, even in the midst of your troubles and the troubles of the governments and nations of this earth. You serve the eternal King, you are part of His victorious bride.

Rejoice that we been given a position to serve in His royal household. What a privilege! No matter how small you believe your role is within the bride of Christ, know that the reality – the truth – is that there is a room for you in the King’s palace, you are securely positioned within the royal household. Serve and govern with a pride and confidence in your heart that your King is eternal and unchanging. Victory is His, victory is yours. You rule and reign as His special servant here on earth.

2 Peter 2:9 (NKJV)
But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvellous light; who once were not a people but are now the people of God, who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy.

Do not allow Kingdom thinking to be attacked

David Stark — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 07:30:39 +0000

To God be the glory! All power is His!

Our enemy has immediate plans to cause a “stroke” in the church. Be vigilant, prayerful and discerning in these days.

A stroke is an attack on the brain caused by lack of bloodflow. The brain is where we do our thinking and the deceiver, whose goal is to kill and destroy, has desires to stifle and subdue our ‘Kingdom-thinking’. The church is rising up in ‘Kingdom-thinking’ in these days – ‘Kingdom-thinking’ that believes in healing, salvation and freedom in Christ – yes, even deliverance from the chains that have bound people for generations. ‘Whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven’.

The enemy knows that he cannot dispute this thinking, for it is God’s truth. It stands true for all eternity. Therefore, one of his schemes is to restrict bloodflow to the places where these Kingdom truths are thought, believed and acted upon. When the brain undergoes a stroke, parts of the body can be paralysed, even cut-off from the rest. Therefore, stand firm! Know that the truth will prevail. Know that, no-matter the attempts to cut you and your brothers and sisters from circulation, you remain under the all-powerful, protective blood of the lamb of God!

You will not perish. Hold on firmly to God’s truth in these days and His word will keep you alive. As Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour said, ‘Whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be condemned; he has crossed over from death to life’. (John 5:24)

John 8:32
Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.

Time for flight – we’re taking the land!

David Stark — Tue, 24 Jan 2012 13:37:12 +0000

I saw God’s people leaving behind their own mode of transport and clothing and getting into fighter jets and into position on battleships. They had their weapons and all were in uniform. I heard the siren released which means, ‘To your positions!’, and everyone ran to their post. I then heard the Lord say:

‘My family, you are called into position. You are called to take arms! No longer the time for simulation or practice but time for flight and taking up your arms! I have equipped you, I have trained you and you are ready. I am calling the Generals, the Corporals, the Sergeants, I am calling the foot-soldiers to come together and fight.

You have all the ammunition you require – it is unlimited. You have every resource at your disposal for I am your provider and protector in this. None shall perish in my army, for my army brings and releases life!

See the land the enemy has taken. You are to come together as one and take it back from our enemy – as it is my Kingdom and you will see it come. So get into position and take the land together.’

I then saw banners being lifted high over thousands upon thousands of soldiers in formation, all ready to fight. The banners had the emblem of the Lion of Judah as He is at the front, leading His army into battle, subduing darkness as He moves forward. Hallelujah! We are taking the land!

Who is this King of Glory?
The Lord strong and mighty,
The Lord mighty in battle. Psalm 24:8

2 Chronicles 32:6-8
He appointed military officers over the people and assembled them before him in the square at the city gate and encouraged him with these words: “Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or discouraged because of the king of Assyria and the vast army with him, for there is a greater power with us than him. With him is only the arm of flesh but with us is the Lord our God to help us and to fight our battles.” And the people gained confidence from what Hezekiah the king of Judah said.

You’re Alive!

David Stark — Mon, 23 Jan 2012 10:27:48 +0000

Whilst you still have breath in your body, know that you are alive! Have you ever had the feeling that you’re ‘marking time’, as if waiting for something else, something more to happen? Is it a ‘call’ that you are waiting on? If so, know that you are called today.

The call of the Lord is on your life – behold I call to you today, says the Lord. Even until your last breath I am calling you to my purposes, says the Lord of Creation. Even retirement is no hindrance to my work in, and through, you. Awaken your spirit, awaken your ears, listen to my Spirit, stir your spirit up within you. Let my Spirit rise up within you today, that you might hear my call to action this very day. Come! Let us work, says the Spirit of the Lord. No more ‘marking time’ – come on, it’s time for you to advance!

2 Corinthians 3:7-11
Now if the ministry that brought death, which was engraved in letters on stone, came with glory, so that the Israelites could not look steadily at the face of Moses because of its glory, transitory though it was, will not the ministry of the Spirit be even more glorious? If the ministry that brought condemnation was glorious, how much more glorious is the ministry that brings righteousness! For what was glorious has no glory now in comparison with the surpassing glory. And if what was transitory came with glory, how much greater is the glory of that which lasts!
