The Great Masquerade of God

        And you are going to say, "Whoa, you aren't that; you're a fisherman!" And I will say, "No, you're not; you're an apostle!" And you will say to this one, "You are a carpenter!" And I'll say, "No, you're not; you are a prophet!" And you shall say to this one, "You are the great leader of the synagogue!" And I will say, "No, no, you're a hypocrite; you're a sinner; you have sin within; you're dead mens' bones; you are a whited sepulchre; you are not what you appear." (Matt. 23:27) And the masks are coming off and we are going to see who's who in the body of Christ, as it would be "Who's Who in the Charismatic Zoo" even.

        But I tell you there are great great exciting things coming down the road for the Body of Christ. Some are going to say, "Woe is me; I'm undone; I've been caught playing church." And others are going to say, "I knew it; I knew it; I knew it! I knew it there was more to it than this. I knew that God had touched me. I knew that God had spoken to me. I knew that I was supposed to be a trumpet on the wall, but I didn't understand; I didn't comprehend."

        The time is coming when I will fulfill that Scripture that those who have gone to the back of the feast and set themselves down and even put on sackcloth and ashes and scraped themselves and have repented, not only for their sins, but for the sins of the Church and the sins of the world, who have humbled themselves and lowered themselves and have not pushed themselves forward.

        The Lord is going to come and pull the mask of poverty, and pull the mask of humility, and pull the mask of plain circumstances off of them and show the Glory of God and show what is hidden within these vessels. There are many that appear meek and lowly as He did who in truth the fullness of the Godhead doeth dwell in there. And the Lord will reveal it; no one will be promoting themselves; no one will come and throw their mask off and say, "Look at me." For the Lord will come and lift these masks; He will lift these humble exteriors and He will show what has been developing deep within the vessels.

        So fear not. This is a time of great rejoicing for those who have been obedient to their Lord. And this is a time of great fear coming upon those who have pretended and been pretentious, and who have in a way faked their way through things. For that which is true upon the Potter's wheel is coming forward in these coming days.

        Great joy shall come upon the Flock. Great joy shall come upon the Body. Great moves of the Holy Ghost are planned among the churches. So fear not; I have not left you out; I have not overlooked each and every one of you. I have kept records on every single individual in the Body of Christ. Everything is recorded; everything is written down. The books in Heaven are sealed. No one can effect my… no one can change my... no one monkeys with My Books, saith the Lord. There are no crooked books in Heaven; you can't gain favor by political advantage in Heaven. There are no crooked books up here, saith the Lord.

        Everything is solid and true and honest and in a proper order. And I will send the Angels to pull the files and I will go through all the cases and I will bring my rewards in my hand. Fear not, fear not, fear not. Though your estate may seem lowly, fear not, saith the Lord. Great reward great reward in Heaven.

        I'll cross my hands as I always have, saith the Lord, and I'll bring forth that which is upon my heart and none will gain stay nor resist.

Prayer:  God, we do seek to come in line with whatever it is that you want to do, Father, in the coming days. We don't want to block; we don't want to hinder; we don't want to put our thoughts up there. Father, whatever it is that is on your heart and on your mind plant it within our hearts to have total cooperation with that which you are doing.

        And Father, if we don't understand, help us to switch our minds off and go with our hearts; go with what the Holy Ghost places within us. If you call us to humble ourselves and head for the back may we run for it, God.

Prophecy:   If the Lord is prophesying to you this day, if the Lord is speaking to you this day, then "Run," saith God. "Run to the back of the feast quickly!" While there is still time to pull yourself down out of those self exalted positions, to pull yourself down out of those places you have put yourself, and run, saith God, run saith God, run, Saith God to the back of the feast.

        I have no desire to bring the rod of correction upon anyone; I have no desire to see the welts raised; I have no desire to hear the screams and the agony and the torments that come upon those who are disobedient. Run, saith God if you hear this word. If this word is broadcast out among the churches, then run, saith the Lord, to the back of the feast. Quickly, quickly, quickly now, for I come.

        For I come. I come to lift up those who are down. I come to lift up those who have been obedient. But I also come on the other hand to set those down who have exalted themselves, to set those in order who have taken advantage of their positions. Run, saith God, now while you still may. Run. Leave your coat and run to the back of the feast.

Prayer:  Father, even in your approaching judgments, I see your heart, Lord. I see you desiring to even give those who have opportunity and space yet to run. To run to the Mercy Seat, to run to the horns of the altar. God, how great you are; how glorious you are; how manifest your presence is. We thank you, God. Your mercy endureth forever; your mercy endureth forever. Even now as you approach your churches you are scattering out your warning saying, "Run for I don't want to judge. Run for I don't want to correct. Run for I don't want to have to bring you into the low place. Bring yourself in to the low place; bring yourself into the low place. " You've told us so many times to get down off of our high horses and humble ourselves, lest you have to come and do it.

        And God, and even in your compassion now you are warning, you are sending out warnings to your Church to run, to run, to run to the back, to lower yourself in your own eyes, to humble yourself before God that He may lift you up. Thank you, Lord, for that great mercy, that great mercy in your heart.

        Father, we pray that all who need to run to the back will hear your voice. Open their ears; forgive them of their sins, Lord. Forgive us of our sins. Help us to sit at the back of the feast, to that place where we are not lifting ourselves or we are not pushing ourselves, but we are wanting on you to do it, Lord.

        You said, in due season, you would come with your rewards and you would lift, and you would set, and you would position. And, Lord, we are wait until the day when your hand moves and by your Spirit you set us in position. As you did with David, you set him in the kingship at proper time. Just before he was to take the kingship he had to go through Ziklag, where all of his men left him and the camp was robbed and it looked like the end of the line, yet within a short period he went from Ziklag straight to the throne.

        So, in your timing, God, you place each one of us where you desire us to be. Help us not to try to place ourselves or to climb that ladder of success even in the Body.

        Thank you, Lord. You are faithful; you are faithful; you are faithful. You are faithful to each and every one of us. Forgive us where we have not been faithful to you; forgive us where we've failed you, Lord. Forgive us where our sins have stood between your anointing and your calling in all of our lives. Remit our sins, I pray this day; forgive all of us for our transgressions, Lord. Wash us in the Blood of Christ and help us to sit quietly at your feet.
