In Like A Lamb, Out Like A Lion!!

I am finding in my studies lately the authority of Jesus Christ. I am finding my confidence in the Lord. Though little, I am finding a zeal by the Word of God for the coming day of the Lord, and to see life brought forth in this world by the power of His name and authority. I guess one would find that by meditating on Isaiah, the books of Corinthians, Romans, and Revelation as well as Galations, Ephesians, and Phillipians. I'd say I am happy with what the Lord is showing me as I close out my journey with ZHOP over the next 2 weeks and transfer to IHOP.

....Jesus has already overcome. He has already overcome! And by this we can be an overcomer. As His life, His Spirit, in all of its glory and holiness, is strengthened and let loose inside of us and allowed to guide us. Its a miraculous and holy thing. Jesus went in like a lamb and came out like a lion. He is the conqueror. He has already won the victory. He has made a way. Now all we have to do is follow Him and partner with the will of the Father. Taking on the death, as He did the flesh, and letting all that is mortal be swallowed up by life as it bursts from the inside of us outward. We have to be on the alert putting on our armor daily as we are part of an army the Lord is raising up; for, the devil prowls around like a lion, but he is not. All the devil has is the ability to recreate and imitate what the Father has already made. He is a liar, a thief, and will find Himself burning in coals of sulfur for eternity. The true lion is Christ. Oh how great it is that He is God! He is our God and King! The one true living God. He is our leader. He is for us. He has plans to prosper us and not to harm us. And nothing can separate Him from us. Absolutely nothing. He is leading His sheep in triumphal procession spreading about His sweet fragrance through us. We must remain silent in our own will and putting to death the sinful nature, in order to be silent before our shearers as He was before His, and walk in the portion of the inexplainable love and grace He gives us. Its through humility His power is shown. Its through our weakness His strength comes. Its through listening and following that He is able to bring forth His will, for every word will come to pass and will not return void. Let us all join together in one voice, one faith, under one God in order to bring our Bridegroom back. Lets make a way for the true lion to roar from Zion! I want to hear "the rhythm of the lion of the tribe of Judah". I really, really do. Its only by following in His way that we can find it. Its only by walking out in righteousness. His ways are higher. His ways are holy! He sees the unseen, and knows all of eternity's place. He is the Alpha and the Omega. I will follow in His ways.

He was silent before His shearers, but He's coming in authority! He will not remain silent, and He will not leave His bride. Let the alarm be sounded. No weapon formed against those who carry His name and are marked by Him shall prosper as the love of Christ surrounds us as a wall. Let the banner be raised to the nations. May they plot their plans and make known their strategy, but they will not stand for God is with us! Hallelujah.
