The Enduring Journey: Much Work

Oh, Lord, thank You for encouraging and loving us. We make so many mistakes just trying to walk with You. Every time we feel so inadequate, You are adequate. Every time we allow fear and despair to flood our hearts, You flood our hearts with peace and rest like nothing this world can give. What an awesome blessing You are, Lord! You are the author of blessing.

Word to Karen

(Father speaking)
There is much to be done. After this week things will move quickly. You are doing well staying available to Me. Just like last night being right where I wanted you to be. I showed My power and glory last night to George and Dana and confirmed in Debbie’s heart that I hear her cry and I know her faithfulness. Thank you for being My servants with a willing heart and a pure mind. Continue to study to show yourself approved as I use you every day to show My love and care to others. You are My witnesses to the church as well as to the world. I have a plan for you and you are to be obedient to that plan. No one else can do all that I have for you to do. Go as I tell you and do as I tell you. Share as I give direction and always listen to My voice and go forward boldly into tomorrow knowing that I am your God and I will provide all you need and give you the desires of your heart. Seek My face diligently and know that I am with you. When the doubts and fears come, and they will come, continue to trust and seek Me. I will give you peace and direction and love for those I send to you and all I send you to. I am taking care of the children and you can trust them to Me. Go, do, serve, love, pray and speak My name to all I send to you and all I send you to. You are My children and I love you. Go with all diligence and boldness into the days ahead knowing that I am with you and I will lead you and I will care for you. Continue to praise My name in the world, as there are so many who only need to hear My name and they are ready to give their lives to Me. The harvest is coming and your job is to do what I tell you and there are others doing their job and with all working together the harvest will come and soon. This New Year does not hold fear but much joy and excitement. For the child of Mine, there is no fear or concern. I am Lord for the year 2000. I am Almighty God and I can be trusted with you and all you love. Thank you for placing your family in My hands. Keep encouraging others to do so. Thank you for leaving your children in My hands. They are coming along fine and you will see the repentance and turning to Me soon. Be steadfast and unwavering in your walk. I will support you and hold you and carry you but keep walking forward to fulfill the plan I have for you. I bless you My children. Yield, submit and persevere. My joy is your strength.


Word to Charley
December 29, 1999
(Father speaking)
I am pleased with you, My son, for the time that you spend in the Word and before My throne. All that I have promised you will come to pass. I do not forget My promises, nor do I make them lightly. Because you have chosen to continue to believe in Me and trust in My words, all that I have told you will come.

The Enduring Journey: This World Is Not My Home

December 13, 1999
(Father speaking)
This world is not your home. You are just passing through. As you pass through trusting and depending on Me you will lead others to go down that path with Me. Always stay open to the leading of My Spirit. Always stay open to My Word. Listen to My voice and hear what I say and do what I say. You have and are doing well in hearing. Just do not ever close your ears to My voice. You have heard My voice enough to know but always test to be sure. It is with great joy that I walk with you daily. You are precious children whom I love greatly. Keep trusting and believing. I am bringing all together for My perfect will to be accomplished. The time is now for healing, restoration and joy. I am your God. You are My people. Keep telling all I send you to and all you meet what I am doing. The boldness has grown within you and you are now greater witnesses than you were before. Step out in this world for Me. Be available at any point to share the good news of My love, grace and provision. Peace is yours because you have believed. Joy is yours because you dare to believe. Healing is yours because you know the healer.

(Karen speaking)
Lord, every day with You is sweeter than the day before. This world is not our home, thank You, Lord, as we look to eternity with You. Our whole focus has changed in these last months. We are learning to open our hand and let go all that seemed dear to lay hold of Jesus who is the dearest thing we could ever desire.

(Father speaking)
You are getting the message, My child. You are learning the most precious gift that can be given this Christmas is Jesus, His love and His Word. I love you, Charley and Karen. Just keep your eyes focused on Me so that I am all you see. I will send you to love, encourage and pray for many as long as you always see Me first. Stay on your face and in My Word. It is a wonderful journey we are on together. You are loved by many because you love many. You are always willing to love. Stay free in Me.

For we know that if our earthly house, this tent, is destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.
2 Corinthians 5:1

The Enduring Journey: Study to Show Thyself Approved

During this preparation time that Father has been walking us through, we have spent much time in the Word and in prayer. We do not want to make any mistakes concerning the call and directions that Father is giving us. Each step is a step of faith and each opportunity is an opportunity of trust and dependence on our Lord. He speaks daily but some we do not write down and some He tells us to record.

A Word to Charley

(Father speaking)
My son, I am pleased with you and the study of My Word that you have committed yourself to these past days. You need to continue to stay in My Word and stay before My throne in prayer. The words that you spoke to Don yesterday were My words and they made an impact that you will never know the fullness of. That all happened simply because you were obedient to Me and prayed for My wisdom. I am pleased with you, My son.

(Charley speaking)

Lord, is there anything that I need to be doing so that the motor home and the complete package along with the money may come?

(Father speaking)

No… As you have told many people, the difference between the amen and the here it is, is the time that it takes Me to get you ready to receive the blessing. All of the things that I have promised you will come to pass. As you read in My Word this morning, I cannot lie. And as you have told many people I am never late. Just keep believing, My son, and trusting in Me. And all of these things will come to pass. The harvest will be greater than you could even imagine. And Charley, it brings great pleasure to Me the excitement that you have talked about in seeing the great harvest come. Continue seeking Me in My Word and in prayer. Don’t stop. Keep doing the little jobs that I have for you to do. The day will come soon very soon when I will tell you where to locate the buyer for your home. The kids are responding to Me very well. I am leading them and they are doing well. Tim and Carol were deeply touched when you and Karen prayed for them. Yes, they do believe in My power. And healing is taking place in them. Betty and Joe are coming along. Yes, the presence of the motor home will be a great revelation to Joe when it arrives. You will have an opportunity to share with him and see him come to Me. You did well in opening the bank account. Now I can send you more money to put into the account. And the time is very soon that you will need to go to the CPA and begin setting up the non-profit status. These are very busy times. Just stay in My Word and listen to Me. Continue to test the spirits, as satan wants to sidetrack you. Continue to ask for confirmation. Continue to talk with Karen about everything. And continue to separately come to Me for confirmation. This is very important. I love you, My son. You are doing very well by following My directions and commandments. Just keep seeking Me.

2 Timothy 2:15 “Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.”

The Enduring Journey: The Fruit of the Spirit/Precious Children

How is Love manifested through the Fruit of the Spirit? Read below:

FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT

LOVE
Manifested in:

Joy—love’s strength

Peace—love’s security

Long-suffering—love’s patience

Gentleness—love’s conduct

Goodness—love’s character

Faith—love’s confidence

Meekness—love’s humility

Temperance—love’s victory

A Holy Spirit-controlled man needs no law to cause him to live a righteous life.

Galatians 5:16 “I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.”

Galatians 5:24-26 “And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.”

Galatians 5:1 “Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage.”

PRECIOUS CHILDREN
November 11, 1999
(Father speaking)
Oh, how precious are My children who seek to be obedient to all I have told them. You are a part of those precious children. You have sought to do all that I have told you. I know it has been a difficult walk but you have done well. Do not fear and do not doubt. You are very close to seeing the manifestation of My power and presence. Soon you will be about My business. I know your thoughts and I love you. I know the strain and I love you. I give you My peace. The world does not give this peace. It only comes from Me. I am your Lord. I am your God. I am the only One that you are to look to for the completion of the purpose and plan I have for you. I will give you direction and I will give you answers to your questions. I am in control of all I have called you to do. Leave that control in My hands and walk forward. Never looking back to the trials but always looking forward to the completion. I love you so much and I will take care of you. Just trust, believe, wait and love. How precious are My children who wait for Me. You are precious children and I love you. Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in Me.

John 14:27 “Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”

The Enduring Journey: Victory/Receiving Our Inheritance

November 9, 1999
(Charley speaking)
I was praising God tonight for what I sensed was a great victory over the evil one, as satan had tried through my own family to create doubt. I was also praising God for the defeat of satan, and praising Him for the wisdom and understanding to see clearly what satan was trying to do.

(Father speaking)
Yes, My son, you did well tonight. For satan tried 2 times to create doubt in your mind through different sources and you stood strong My son. You did not allow the evil one to get even a foothold. That is the last battle. It is over now. It is finished. It is finished. It is finished. The last roadblock was demolished tonight. Now the motor home will arrive. You did well My son.

(Charley speaking)
I had felt a freedom today all day long from satan and his demons of doubt and fear. Then within an hour 2 times satan tried to undermine and through Father’s wisdom and understanding, I was able to see and to respond. Hallelujah! Thank You, Father. Thank You, Jesus. Thank You, Holy Spirit. To repeat Father’s words. It is finished, it is over. Glory to God!! The fight is over, the battle has been won. And all to the glory of God. Hallelujah!

1 Corinthians 14:56-58

“The sting of death is sin, and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that you labor is not in vain in the Lord.“

1 John 5:4-5

“For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world--*our faith. Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?”

Receiving Our Inheritance

Psalm 16:5-6
O Lord, You are the portion of my inheritance and my cup; You maintain my lot. The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places; Yes, I have a good inheritance.

Psalm 37:18
The Lord knows the days of the upright, and their inheritance shall be forever.

Psalm 47:4
He will choose our inheritance for us, the excellence of Jacob whom He loves. Selah

Galatians 4:6-7
And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His son into your heart, crying out, (abba, Father!) Therefore you are no longer a slave but a son, and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.

Ephesians 1:5, 11
Having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will, In Him also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestined according to the purpose of Him who works all things according to the counsel of His will,

Luke 15:1
And he said to him, ‘Son, you are always with me, and all that I have is yours.’

Mark 11:22-24
So Jesus answered and said to them, “Have faith in God. For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says. Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.

Romans 8:17

“and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together.”

The Enduring Journey: His Hand Is On Me/Delivery

Psalm 80:17 Let Your hand be upon the man of Your right hand, upon the son of man whom You made strong for Yourself.

(Karen speaking)
Oh, I am SO glad His hand is on us! So many things are happening right now! As I read these messages Father has given to us during our days of preparation for traveling we are so refreshed in His presence. He is with us every step we take and He knows our hearts and our needs. Be encouraged dear friends as you read the words spoken to us as we sought Father’s face and listened to His voice preparing for an awesome adventure that we continue to experience.

November 3, 1999
(Charley speaking)
This morning as I was on the floor, I began worshipping and praising my Lord. What happened in the next few moments is very difficult to put into words. I felt the hand of the Lord upon me as I have never felt before in my life. I felt His hand on my back and I felt His hand on my head. I felt a purging take place like none before. I felt the power of the Holy Spirit within me like never before. All I could do was be still and receive that which the Lord had for me. Much more happened while I was on the floor but words cannot express it. It is so difficult for human words to express what our Lord does. But there are some things that we are not to tell. We are to simply just receive and cherish these things in our heart. How do you describe the awesomeness of God? But yet when the power of the Holy Spirit comes in a way like it did this morning, there is no mistaking the source of that power. I pray You, Lord, for this day to be spent with You. For You are Lord.

(Father speaking)
You have experienced a portion of My rest but there is much more you have not experienced. There is much more.

(Charley speaking)
We have waited for many months to see the manifestation of the promises of God. During that time we have grown in our relationship with the Lord and in our ability to choose to trust Him and hear His voice. As we await the arrival of our motor home, one thing that became so apparent to me is that our trust in God did not depend on whether we received the motor home and finances but our trust in God totally depended on who HE IS. If I never receive the things, HE IS STILL GOD.

Delivery

God’s Word to explain the travail
November 3, 1999
(Karen speaking)
We have been carrying and nurturing this vision for many months. We have protected the vision by our faith and belief in the Most High God. We have come across unbelievers, skeptics and scoffers. But we have protected the vision at all cost. It has grown beyond our expectations when we began. Today is the day of delivery. The vision is no longer a vision, it is reality. The joy of seeing the newborn is here.

(Father speaking)
You have been faithful My children. You have grown mightily. Your day of delivery is here. That is the travail that Charley went through this morning. Charley was the one who went through it because he is the one that is the spiritual leader. It was his responsibility to go through the travail. The day of delivery is here. I have chosen this day and just as with a newborn all you have to do is be willing to receive that which I have for you. As I told you this morning, Karen, all that I have for you will be greater than your greatest, fondest dreams. Just receive. Delivery day is here. Just as today is the first day of the rest of your lives, today the dreams come forth.

Isaiah 66:9 Shall I bring to the time of birth, and not cause delivery? says the Lord. Shall I who cause delivery shut up the womb? says your God.

The Enduring Journey: Joy Coming

(Karen speaking)
I love to reflect back on these early days when this ministry first began in the physical realm. It had already begun in the spirit about 6 months before our actual first trip. There was so much preparation that had to happen. As we listened to the Lord and followed His directions to prepare, we were so blessed to see daily His provision and His plans come to fruition. As you read and sense the excitement we felt preparing our hearts and minds for this new work, we pray that you will also experience the excitement of following the Lord totally and completely in the paths that He wants you to trod in your daily life. We are all His children and as such He desires His best for us! He wants us to be usable vessels in His hands for the Kingdom of God.

November 3, 1999
(Father speaking)
There is more great joy awaiting you, My children. I have much for you to do. The time is almost here when you will leave. The schedule is set and the time is soon when you leave to do all that I have set out for you to do. You are ready. Just continue in My Word and stay ready to leave. Get all your clothing and supplies together. When the motor home arrives, it will be a quick preparation time. You will call all on your list to come and see the provision I have sent. You will tell all who come how I have given this to you because of your trust and belief in Me. It will not be pride or arrogance but truth and confidence. Some may see it as the other but it will only be, look what I have done. Some will still not believe but will be skeptical and others will fall on their face before Me in repentance and love. Why is it that My children have to see Me work in order to know that I am working? It is the condition of man to doubt and fear what is of Me. I love My children and want them to come to Me willingly and obediently but they resist and suffer the loss of fellowship. You have believed and have chosen to walk with Me. Just do not waver or be fearful. I will provide all I have promised and you have done well to follow all My words. You have been so sensitive to My Spirit. Just continue to do so as the time draws close for all to be accomplished. Even you will be so awed by how the provision comes that your faith will be strengthened and your walk will be straighter. Go and tell My people that the time is now for turning to Me completely and totally. Much will be happening in our world that demands that My people will stand strong. It is the time to make that commitment to Me that will place you at the point of danger just to stand for Me. I am calling all My people to be accountable to Me and to each other. Your word must be your life. What you say must be what you believe. Playing time is over. Some will not change but there are many others who will hear what you say and fall on their face in confession and repentance. They will become the warriors I need at this time. Many will hear and know that I am God and there is no other. You just go and tell all whom I bring to you. Many will be brought to you and I will send you to many. Just remain so close to Me that you hear and obey in a moment. I love you both and I am so glad you have chosen to believe what I have said and have done it. When you falter reach out for Me. I am right here always and will help you. Do not listen to the enemy no matter what he says. Always check to be sure who is talking to you. You know My voice now as never before so just listen and respond as I speak. There is great joy coming even more than you are experiencing now. The time on the road will be the most wonderful you have ever spent. I know you both love each other so much and that will grow as you serve Me and others. The testimony of your life together is a testimony of Me. Keep being open and sharing what I am doing in your life and every day there will be someone to tell. You have done well to speak boldly all that I have given. It is almost time to go so don’t let down. You did well to fast today, as I wanted this time with you totally uninhibited and close. Listen, I will give even more direction to you about these next few days. Share it all with each other. It is all-important to each day’s walk.

Psalm 16:11

You will show me the path of life; in Your presence is fullness of joy; at Your right hand are pleasures forevermore.
