Sincere Contrition, Humility, Littleness & Honesty Excerpt of the Household of God Volume 1 Chapter 1 Verse 4 4. Tell those who seek Me… I am the true ‘everywhere’ and ‘nowhere’. I am everywhere where people love Me and keep My commandments and nowhere where I am only praised and worshipped. For is not love more than prayer and the keeping of the commandments more than worship? Verily, verily, I say to you: He who loves Me worships Me in spirit, and he who keeps My commandments is the one who truly reveres Me. But only he who loves Me can keep My commandments, and the one who loves Me has only one commandment – that he love Me and My living Word which is the true everlasting life. *** Excerpt of the Secret of Life ‘Our Father’ 27. Only in the honest recognition of one’s own weakness lies the whole fervor of a prayer directed to an Almighty One, who lets Himself be called Father, and who tries to educate and form these very same human beings to become His children. 28. As long as pride or an overrating of one’s own strength reign in a heart, no sincere prayer or entreaty can reach Me. As I once expressed it, so it still says today: “And when you have done everything possible to man, you are still lazy servants.” 29. Man, no matter in what circumstances he may find himself or what adversity he may have to fight against, shall always be aware of the fact that he has done the least, but I have done the most part. 30. Thus his trust in Me grows, thus by fighting he gains his tranquility, his peace. And only when he prostrates himself before Me in contrition and is forced to call out: “Lord! What am I for You to remember me”, when he confesses and realizes the inadequacy of his own strength to reach his eternal spiritual goal, only then will he understand the value of the help of his spiritual Father and how vastly different it is from the help his fellowmen can give him! 31. This admission that without Him, the sole true and always unchangeable Father, nothing is possible; this alone can then induce man, who has recognized his weakness to make the exclamation concluding this prayer, by saying: 32. “Having understood that without my Father in heaven I am a nothingness, I entreat Him to keep me at a distance from all evil” or, as it says in the prayer: “deliver me from all evil!” The redemption, or the acquittal from the offense committed with or against one’s will, must of course take place, or a progress is impossible and to become a son of the Father in heaven unachievable. *** Excerpt of the Lord’s Sermon 4 9. At that time John said that he who had two coats should give one away, and he who had plenty to eat should share with a hungry one; also, that no one should demand more than is due to him if he has a claim to something. All these examples point to one thing. Be generous, be just – the same as your Father in heaven. Give, so that also you may receive; forgive -that you, too, may be forgiven! 10. Do not be deceived by the world and the things it has to offer. A time is coming when you will have to leave everything behind and keep only those values which you have gained for your inner being and which neither pestilence nor war, neither affliction nor death can take away from you. 11. Let be those who consider themselves very clever with their pseudo-wisdom! Their time of triumph will only be short. Follow My advice, My warning. I do not call you a generation of vipers as John in his sermon of repentance did, but I call you My children whom I once created in My image and want to restore once more to this image. Originally the outer appearance corresponded to that of the spirit; today there still remains externally a faint likeness with the long vanished paradisaic beauty, but the soul, as the temple and seat of My divine spark, has become but a caricature. My order does not allow this discord to remain, and the inner man must once more be brought into harmony with the outer. Even if you are no longer able to change the outer shell on which passions have left their mark, do make at least every effort to shape the inner, spiritual man once more according to his archetype, for there does not exist a more beautiful, or a greater and more spiritual image in all of creation. It is that image as a copy of which every being has been created to a greater or lesser extent. And of this image you, as the highest expression of all material and spiritual creation, bear within you that form, that archetype, which not only wishes to be your Creator and Lord, but also your Father. He could lay down for you laws with inexorable serverity through the power of His will and either reward you or punish you relentlessly and devastatingly but, instead of punishment, He has only forgiveness, mercy and love for you. 12. In those days a forerunner was needed who could prepare mankind for My coming. Today it is I Myself Who extends to you the hand of peace in order to guide you in all the troubles which will be descending upon mankind due to its obstinacy. Do not push away this hand, because you will not find a stronger one. Every human arm is too short, only Mine suffices for all distances and is able to reach the one asking for help, even beyond those spaces where the last star is shining and the realm of spirits begins. Even there this hand is available to guide and draw towards Me the one who has love. 13. Heed the voice that – as once the voice in the wilderness – is now calling to you in the wilderness of worldly activities: “Do not forget Him Who reigns above the stars, but also wants to dwell in every man’s heart!” John preached in the wilderness. He did this because the wilderness which is barren of vegetative life would not distract his listeners. Now I am preaching to you in the wilderness of the spiritual life which, because of the arrogance of human intellect, has become barren of all that revives the heart. Thus I, like John, am endeavoring to plant the spiritual flower of love in the midst of sand and rock which, not drawing nourishment from the soil, obtains its nourishment only from above. And now, on the ground of a speculative world of the intellect made barren through egoism, in the wilderness of the divine spiritual life barren of deeper thought, I once more call out to you: 14. “Awake! Go into the depths of your being in order to find the source of never-ending joy, comfort and love as the fundamental principle of all created and animated things. Recognize Him again Who, through gardens full of flowers, through shady forests and on lofty mountains and up to the most distant universal sun, is always the same, never changes and -since He has created everything – expects of His created beings only the one thing that a mother, a father expect of their child as a first sign of kinship – love.” 15. Whilst your weak worldly rulers try to enforce your respect for them through many laws, I set you as free beings into creation. You may choose freely between love or hatred, life or death, light or darkness. At this stage everyone is still free to choose, but the time when a decision must be made is coming closer and closer. 16. Just as once the warning-call sounded before My coming, now My second call is sounding, so that the events may not take you by surprise while asleep, but that you may face fully conscious and with a calm heart the events meant only for those who could not be awakened by more gentle means. 17. Whilst your hearts are receptive for the soft harmonies of love, trumpets must be sounded for others as is mentioned by My beloved disciple John, when angels will be pouring out the vials of wrath upon those who are hard of hearing and who, notwithstanding all warnings, do not listen to My words of love. 18. I have already repeatedly proclaimed that bad times will be coming. I once more repeat: Bad times are ahead of you. Make already now every effort to change for the better so that in the knowledge of this you have a shield against all the bitter events. Actually, they are bitter only for those who, used to the honey of a worldly material life of pleasure, do not regard the bitter remedy as a medicine, but as a destructive poison. 19. This is the meaning of that sermon of repentance for you and for the coming times. Who has ears, let him hear! Amen. *** Excerpt of the Lord’s Message to Clare Jesus began… “Tonight I want to talk to you about honesty. Honesty with yourself and others. You all have areas that need to be looked at just a little closer. If I did not love you I would not bring this up at all, but because time is very short and there are still areas where you have not confessed sin to Me, I am asking you precious Bride, look again.” “For the sake of survival in the past you have hidden certain things from yourself because it was too painful to look at. But you needn’t hide anything from Me, I already know about your sins, dearest. I want to work with you and lift the burden of guilt deep down inside where you have hidden things too painful and disturbing to bring up.” “There is nothing that can keep Me from loving you, absolutely nothing. But our relationship must be built on honesty. I cannot perfect that which you refuse to see. In order to bring you to perfection, you must be willing to admit the truth about yourself. You are beautiful beyond imagining and there is nothing that will change My mind about that but these deep dark secrets and unconfessed sins let off a scent of guilt and shame.” “This too is responsible for you distancing yourself from Me. You know there are things too dark to confront but that in My presence all things are seen…may I say I have seen all these things even before they happened? No one wants to see themselves as evil and so they hide their evil thoughts and deeds even from themselves and make excuses to cover them up, or invent stories.” “My Love, come to Me and ask to be relieved of these sins. Ask Me to bring them to the surface where My grace can cauterize your flesh and you will never more be burdened by them.” “For instance, so many make the excuse that they don’t have time to pray the way they should. Let’s examine that. Do you have time to shop, prepare dinner, watch a show on TV, talk to a friend for 45 minutes, go to a salon to have your hair done, take a trip with friends, sit on the porch and enjoy the fresh evening air?” “Let’s analyze that. You have made time to nourish your body and provide for your body’s needs. You have made time to relax and be entertained, to give your emotions a break, you have made time for a friend to confide in you or to share in your victories and failures, you have made time to be stylish and look good in the eyes of man, and you have made time to get away from everyday life with friends.” “What is the truth of this, what is the conclusion to be drawn from this example? Simply that I am not as important as any of these things, that is the honest truth I am looking for. You make time for the things that are most important for you in your life. You make time to work and make money, to shop and spend money, to entertain yourself, even to go to church, these things are important to you. But a relationship with Me?” *** Excerpt of the Lord’s Message to Clare “Beloved family of God, all of you will benefit by deep contrition for your sins. Contrition moves the jagged rocks from the site where the foundation of humility is poured. When you encounter yourself in failure, it is one of the greatest gifts I can give you. You become aware of your nothingness and My great mercy and love for you.” “When you begin to see yourself as you truly are, I pour My love and grace all over you until you are nothing but a tiny speck carrying a huge bundle of light. Like an ant with a big twig, you aren’t even seen anymore. You are hidden beneath the gift of grace that dominates you.” “Contrition is the pre-eminent gift of predilection… meaning that you have been chosen and responded appropriately. Many are called, few are chosen, and even fewer respond. When you empty yourselves and become so small and insignificant in your own eye, even to the point of being a ‘detriment’ to yourself and others, then you are in the position to be used by Me for My highest callings.” “To get to this place, you will stumble many times. Indeed to stay in this place, it is necessary for you to continue to stumble, but getting right back up with My hand lifting you from that pit. I allow this because more than any other attribute but Love, Humility is necessary for all the gifts to flow and for you to be raised to that station in life destined for you from birth.” Although I am God, I did not consider equality with God in the eyes of onlookers a matter to be grasped, but I emptied Myself, taking the form of a servant, even obedient unto death on an infamous cross…He’s referencing Philippians 2:6 here. “I could be trusted with the most precious gifts because My Heart was not Proud. I assumed not only the body but the helplessness of man in his earthly condition. I did this for you, Beloved Church. I did this to reveal how you, too, must have this heart, being the lowliest of low in My house.” “Yet so many fight to be superior. To have more knowledge, more power, more, more, more of everything to secure their position. Do you know that is the trap of tyranny? Yes, when you are the best and have the most, you have to fight to maintain that status. You lose sight of who you truly are, why you are here and who I made you to be. Your standard becomes the same as society’s and you lose your identity as the precious person I made you to be. In this place, you are continually fighting to maintain your status and your life becomes a war zone for you – not the beautiful expression of your work through Me, with Me, and for Me, so that I shine through you.” “I am telling you this, My dear ones, because I don’t want you to be afraid of encountering your real self. It is quite necessary to you before you can be trusted with My gifts. Don’t be afraid to be feeling like a lion and catch a glimpse of yourself in the mirror and see that you are but a little kitten. There is nothing shameful in being little. Little is beautiful. All who have become great in Heaven, on Earth were very, very little ones.” “Moses did mighty things, yet in his own eyes he was so little and abased that he feared to speak for himself. The breaking he went through when he left Pharaoh’s house, the forty years he tended sheep, totally unknown out in the wilderness – all of that prepared him to encounter Me in the burning bush and remain very little in his own eyes, so he could carry the anointing and set My people free.” “The fastest way to accomplish great things is acting from total sincerity of the heart. Collapse before Me saying, ‘Lord, I am too little, I can’t do this, I just can’t do it.’ Then relying on Me to execute whatever it is. I come rushing to the aid of a little one such as this. Yes, you are a little one when you have embraced that place with your whole heart.” “And in contrast to this, the quickest way to fail at anything is to do it yourself. Even if you succeed in the eyes of others, you fail before Me and the great cloud, because it was done with the wrong heart attitude. But it is then that I allow the enemy to sift you with the next undertaking and the next and the next until the self-reliance is completely gone out of your character.” “How opposite to the world is that??? Instead of proving your competency over and over again, and thus qualifying for My work, you must fail over and over and over again in order to sign off on the application. I will not take anyone into My service who has not been humbled by multiple failures in the past.” “The man who has failed knows his limitations. The man who has failed looks on others as better than himself. The man who has failed has charity and compassion on those who struggle as he does. The man who has failed comes to Me on his knees and hands it over to Me saying, ‘I can’t do this Lord, I tried, but I can’t serve you as I should. I have failed.’” “This is the one I embrace and lift to his feet and say, ‘Come let us reason and work together. I will do it through you. Now that you have learned the truth about yourself, I can bring success to the work of your hands.’” “Every great vessel that has ever served Me has a profound understanding of his absolute nothingness. Without this attitude, I never could have used him. He might look confident to you, but I see him on his knees confessing his weaknesses. I see what you do not see. In his heart, he is but a kitten, while to others he may appear as a lion.” *** Excerpt of the Lord’s Message to Clare Jesus says… “Satan begins with little betrayals, little dishonesties, and proceeds to bigger and bigger ones. If you give into the first little one, he will lead you into another and another and another until you are walking all twisted and deformed. That is why the demons are so ugly. Their appearance in the spirit reflects the ugliness of their deeds. After centuries of evil, they have become hideously deformed. If you react to others, rather than forgiving them – you, too, become deformed. This is why I died on the Cross: that all deformities could be healed and forgiven once the soul made up their mind to come to Me and repent.” “If you give in to evil impulses when they are small, you will become weaker and the next occasion is easier for you to justify doing what is wrong. If you resist evil suggestions at the onset, you become stronger. “The decision to grow in beauty and holiness, or shrivel up into ugliness and evil, is entirely up to you. I warn you in your conscience not to do something, because I know how it will affect you as well as others. And My heart is for you to be holy. When you connect with evil, you partner with demons and they continue to lead you into wickedness, until you are beyond repentance and destined for Hell.” “You object and say to Me, ‘Oh, no! Never me. I’m not going to Hell – I’m a good person, after all.’ You may have been good at some point… although good does not guarantee salvation. But when you FIRST decided to compromise with the Truth and go against your conscience, where I advise you, you turned and started downwards.” “It matters not how many times you’ve been hurt by others. When you retaliate, you become like them and lose your light. Salt that has lost its savor is good for nothing but throwing out on the ground to be trampled. You have lost your place in My Kingdom when you choose evil. It starts very small…a little compromise here, a little more there. The soul becomes hardened and does not recoil at the thought of evil but embraces it – first reluctantly, then eagerly.” “There may be qualms at the beginning, but as you choose evil over good, the qualms become weaker and weaker and your warning system is disabled. So, more and more, you justify and choose the evil path and your heart becomes hardened.” “I created you in beauty and innocence, but you can lose it by your own free will choices. I can restore it to you with a good and genuine confession of evil, accompanied by deep contrition. But if you are beyond the point of wanting to be holy before Me, you are headed for great sorrows and disappointments. I will not choose to use a vessel that was unto honor, but now has chosen to cover their sins and keep going.” And He quickened to me Ezekiel 33:17-20 The Message of the Watchman. ‘The way of the Lord is not right,’ when it is their own way that is not right. “When the righteous turns from his righteousness and commits iniquity, then he shall die in it. “But when the wicked turns from his wickedness and practices justice and righteousness, he will live …” After reading that, I said to the Lord… ‘When you reprove me with this Scripture, I tremble.’ “And well you should. I am warning you that you have set off on the path of destruction and to turn back before it is too late. Do not take these admonitions as punishment, My Precious Ones – please do not.” “Rather, take them as instruction that, if followed, will lead to life and life more abundantly. Each of you has much to lose when you depart from the right way.” “These are the last moments of the end times and there is no more time to toy with compromise and sin. At any moment your life could end. Then you will stand before Me either clean or dirty. I hold your lives in the palm of My hand. I sustain your lives with My love and I would rather see your life end than watch you proceed down paths of iniquity and lose your soul.” “It is one thing to lose your calling and quite another to lose your soul. If I see that you have crusted over your heart and conscience, I may very well take you to preserve your soul.” “So, now we are too close to the end for any more deception and dishonesty, especially dishonesty with yourself. Recognize well the frailty of your souls and strengthen what remains. For the temptations of these times are beyond anything you’ve ever faced in your life.” *** Excerpt of the Lord’s Message to Clare Jesus says… “Never be afraid of being wrong. If you have this fear, you are sure to be manipulated by Satan. If you care nothing about being right or wrong, but care very much about the truth, the demons will have no leverage on you.” “Very often I allow error, because I’m taking the soul into a breaking through to a better level of understanding. Always, humility comes before promotion.” “My Dear Ones, there is nothing wrong with being mistaken; there is everything wrong with being in denial.” “When a soul becomes convinced of their own rightness, an obtuse spirit gains entry. An obtuse spirit builds walls that make you blind to the truth. Whatever knowledge threatens you, they build a blind spot into your thinking. If it goes on for years and years, a person’s world becomes more and more narrow and limited.” “Please, always value the truth above being right and this won’t happen to you.” “I lead My vessels through many, many paths of breaking and reforming; more numerous are they than you can count. When you come to serve Me, I have plans that I automatically implement, so that you will go from glory to glory. Don’t be stubborn or lax, Dear Ones. All is for your good and the good of My Body.” “I am purifying My vessels in this hour, so don’t be surprised if you uncover some blind spots in your life. Better now than later. What you work on now will no longer hinder you as you move forward. What you refuse to work on will hold you back – just like the Israelites were held back, when they continually went ’round the mountain for 40 years.” “Souls that fall into this life pattern only come to know themselves when I take them to Heaven. Then all is seen so very clearly. For some, it’s a painful shock; but for others, it’s a happy surprise. If you know Me, truly know Me on this Earth, you will also know yourself, because I teach you all about yourself as you follow Me with your whole hearts.” “So, never be afraid to be wrong. But always be concerned about missing the Truth. Stay faithful to Me and faithful to the Truth and you’ll have nothing to be ashamed of in that Hour.” *** Excerpt of the Lord’s Message to Clare Jesus says… “Who do you think is richer… the queen in all her splendor? Or the little Cinderella crying out from among the ashes for Mercy? Recognizing your extreme poverty of virtue qualifies you for My most tender affections and raising you to the appropriate stature of My Bride, because I know you will not presume.” “This is what I truly wish to discuss with all My Heartdwellers tonight. By the way, if you do not know what a Heartdweller is, it is one whose joy it is to live and breath in My Heart, capturing My thoughts, feelings and desires. That’s all it is.” “I have taken great pains in the last two years to make it very, very clear that I love littleness. I love hiddenness. I love those who long for My company above any one else’s in this world. I love the rag lady, the poor and lowly plumber, the carpenter, the street cleaner, the shepherd… What can I say to convince you?” “You cannot earn My affections. It is Who I Am. And I look upon each of you with the greatest tenderness. I especially delight in those souls who are little in their own eyes. Did I not live that example before you? I could have resurrected right before their very eyes, even calling legions and legions of angels to accompany Me as I freed Myself from the Cross in glory.” “But no, I chose instead to die an ignominious death between two thieves, to be taken down by mere men, bathed, anointed and laid in a tomb. Oh, the heart-wrenching finality they felt when the stone was rolled into place!” “The darkest moment in the history of the Earth, when all the hope of mankind had left, was snuffed out, sealed in a dismal tomb behind a cold stone. Nothing notable, just cold and barren rock, snuffing out the Light of the world.” “Those who were without faith did not understand I would rise again. Rather, they fell into despair that their hope for the Messiah was in vain, that truly if anyone were ever the Messiah, it was Me. But now, I was ‘dead’ and what was left? Shock, dismay, confusion, agony, hopelessness.” “So, you see, these men were no different than you, Clare, or any other Heartdweller. They all had their doubts, fears, confusions proposed to them by lying demons. They all fell short in perfect faith, perfect fidelity, perfection as I lived it. Yet still they clung to the hope that perhaps what I told them could be true, incredulous as it was.” “I am not looking for those who are qualified in their own eyes. I am looking for those who know they are nothing – and I shall crown them with My Glory. Those of you who doubt that you are fit for Me, stop. Stop trying to qualify, stop waiting to be worthy, stop trying to accomplish something fit for the King. Only rend your hearts open with great poverty in your being. This is the place where My Glory bursts into your hearts and heals you, raising you to the appropriate stature of My soon-to-be wed Bride.” “Oh, how sublime is your poverty and lack! Do you not see how perfect your littleness is for Me? Can you take the credit for anything? Do you lack worldly qualifications? So much the better! Those who were great in the eyes of the world take more time to realize how truly pitiful they are before Me, but nonetheless, their value to Me is not diminished, not even an iota.” “Don’t you see? Your substance, who you are, your spirit, came from Me. Yes, you were made in My image: spirit, soul and body. Not only in physical appearance, but in components, each expressing a different side of your nature. How lovely is My dwelling place! Not the courts of elaborate palaces, but the heart who has left behind all significance to embrace only Me.” “Yes, your hearts must be cleansed of the world: it’s values, ever-present opinions, condemnations, judgements – that hold such sway over your every action. All of that must be emptied; then we can begin to work on humility. Such an arduous journey, attaining humility! How treacherous and fearful is this work of removing the facade of self-worth from your souls. It seems like it takes forever for you to see yourself as you appear in My mirror. How dangerous to see yourself as nothing, headed for oblivion, but saved by grace. How difficult to understand that the world has it upside down, backwards and even inside out, as it teaches souls error from their very earliest years.” “Removing this elaborate interior structure and replacing it with your infinite value to Me takes many years of maturing and coming to know Me. Your safest posture, My precious loves, is that of a very little child about to cross a rush hour freeway. Your only recourse, “Daddy, help me.” Do you know how pleasing that posture is before Me?” “The snow-capped peaks are magnificent to behold, but as the snow melts, water flows downwards until it comes to rest in the lowliest places, producing much fruit. And so the lofty heights are barren, but the lowly valleys are fruitful. And so the more lowly you are, the more fruitful you will become.” “I say this to you, because many of you have reservations about how I can use you. What I am saying to you now is that the more worthless you are in your own eyes, and truly believing you are the least of all, the more precious the gift of yourself is to Me. No one will assign you as the author of your deeds, but they will clearly see it is Me.” *** Excerpt of the Lord’s Message to Clare Jesus began… “Sometimes these lessons in humility have to go deep and deeper yet. No one will know the extent of their sins until Heaven, that fateful moment when it’s all exposed. Yet, the confessed sins will not be found there. It is the unconfessed, unrepentant sins that will emerge to convict you. Isn’t it better to be convicted now, Dearest… than then?” “How I hate to see you suffer this way, yet it is necessary for purging. The refiners fire, smelting the gold, which shall be fashioned into vessels on the King’s table.” “Well, you truly must deal with these things and share them publicly so I can heal even the most wretched cases… of whom you closely approximate. You know well that what I say is true, because had these graces given to you been given to the worst sinner, they would by now be a saint. Yet you are still struggling. Why is this? Is it not because you have not totally abandoned yourself? Is it not that your flesh stubbornly clings to old ways? No matter, you have plenty of company and that is why I am using you.” “Yet the more you love others, the more mercy will cleanse you and protect you. Do not let your guard down on love, ever. When this happens a huge door swings open and in come the devils that torment you with those things you hate about yourself and are fighting against. It is because you have loved, forgiven and cried out that I rush to embrace you all covered in mud, which is cleansed when I hold you in My arms.” “Clare, do not let this sadness over your sins overtake you. Your ministry is so important to Me, because others need to see how fragile and corrupt you can be. How prone to distraction and self-indulgence. All these faults are common to mankind, yet My Christian people put up a shiny penny front, hiding it all beneath that acceptable facade.” “That’s not what I want, My people. Did I not say… “Confess your sins one to another?” Yet you keep so much hidden, you cover so much with an outer layer of piety. Why don’t you just be real with your brothers and sisters? Why don’t you allow them to see this unacceptable interior? Don’t you know they are struggling to keep their fronts up with you? They suffer from this disease, just as you do. But when you confess, I heal you. When you share with others your weaknesses, I run to reinstate you.” “That is My entire purpose… to save sinners from themselves and make them ready for Heaven. We may not have perfected you on Earth, but if I can bring you to the point of contrition for wrongdoing, we are well on our way. The rest shall await you in Heaven.” “I am not saying these things to discourage you, My People, rather to encourage you. Isn’t it labor intensive and tedious to constantly present a squeaky clean front? Doesn’t the devil discourage you by accusing you of being a hypocrite because you are just as guilty as others? I am trying to free you from that cycle of self-righteousness that has you bound, so others will love and accept you.” “On the outside, people will accept and honor you, but inside they are envious because they are not as holy as you appear to be. Doesn’t that disturb you, My precious ones? It should, it should disturb you very much. Come down off your ivory tower and let people get a look at the dirt beneath your fingernails. Not so they will think less of you, but to set them free that they are no worse off than you. You see, when you live that transparently, you seed people’s lives with HOPE.” “The accuser of the brethren never sleeps. Twenty four/seven he is at work sending his demons to demean, demote and demolish men’s hopes. I want you to bring light into the world. Not by revealing all your dirt, but by acknowledging who you truly are before men. That you are no better, that it cost Me the same price to redeem you as it did the lowliest beggar on the street. It is when you stand in this place and see yourself that you will see Me clearly. Your vision shall become crystal clear and your life will begin to change, because you put more effort into loving Me than in loving yourself and presenting that self-righteous image.” “I am not chastising you. I am asking you to reconsider who you are before man and God. This is how the poor and broken will discover Me. Your littleness, like the hand of a little child reaching out as she says, ‘Look, the Master is calling you. Don’t be afraid, He came to rescue us. We are His little ones and He is ever so gentle, loving, and forgiving. Don’t despair over your sins. Take my hand, let us go to the well- springs of love, healing and life everlasting. Come, don’t be afraid, He awaits you.’” (Clare) And at this point I just had to ask the Lord, How do we do this? Practically speaking. “Clare, when you stand before Me acknowledging who you are, then you will stand before men and reveal to them who I am. It’s that simple, a little child can do this. It is the adults who have spent their lives proving their worth to others that hinder Me.” “This is not accomplished by words alone. You can’t just say, ‘God did it all.’ Or, ‘He’s the one who did it, not me.’ This is an interior demeanor crafted by selected encounters with yourself, which I provide at the most critical times. These encounters, though very humiliating, transform a soul in such a way that this goodness of Mine radiates from them. They’re gone from inside themselves, and I am shining out from them.” “They’ve given up proving themselves, defending themselves, and let go of all the facades. Now they stand before Me and men in clean robes, washed in My blood. Words are not necessary or convincing when they attribute all to Me, unless it is accompanied by that very real and raw conviction.” “Men and women are sensitive beyond what you comprehend; they have a sense about a soul and My spirit bears witness, ‘This one has met the Master. This one has been on the potter’s wheel. This one has been ground to fine dust and risen again in the waters of new life. This one knows Him.’” “So, why have I taken this topic up? Because you, My people must let go of the old ways, the old masks and cover-ups you’ve used on men all these years. You are standing before Me now. You are My ambassadors of Love to mankind, and you must reflect by your authenticity and humility that you have been in My presence. That you know the way to My chambers, and what awaits all who come there is unconditional love, healing and cleansing.” “Be not afraid My people, be not afraid to lead others to Me by being who you truly are before Me. Do this and they will come running. They will see something different about you, something real, something not of this world, you have mined the gold and been in the refiner’s fire. And you know Him. When you are faithful to do this they will rush to know Me.” *** Excerpt of the Lord’s Message to Clare Jesus says… “Everything hinges on love. A love which you cannot generate for Me. I must endow you supernaturally with this grace of loving Me. But those who have been forgiven much also Love much. You appreciate being rescued from the depravity from which I rescued you. You frequently get lessons in your failures with Me. And for this reason, your love is deep and great, though you do not connect with it until it really matters, and then it brings you to your knees in abject contrition.” “How I wish all of you, My Children, would stay in this place of lowliness, where so little can be lost. Yet many of you aspire to be lofty, high and lifted up. May I say, this is a dangerous state of mind? It is this littleness that pleases Me most. And it is a truth that the tea cup touches My lips, while the barrel waits outside collecting the water.” “O My Children, the world is so very opposite of Heaven. In Heaven all are little and the highest stations are occupied by the lowliest. This is why I bent my knees to wash the feet of My disciples. The greatest among you shall be the servant of all. Not that you should aspire to greatness and take it upon yourself to be serving of all. No, I ask you to be authentic, be who you truly are. Rather, you should aspire to littleness, littler and littler, with nothing worth stealing. This is the safest spiritual posture, being so little that even the demons avoid you, because you are of little worth.” “Not only that, but My angels rush to protect the little ones. To long to be a little one is a worthy ambition. One whose heart is so little, there is only room for Me. One who is so satisfied in this littleness that jealousy never finds a foothold. You become jealous of one greater than you. However, if you long to be littler and lesser, jealousy has no foothold in your being and you are free to enjoy Me to the fullest.” “Yes, My little teacups, stay little. It is My joy to raise you to My lips.” *** Excerpt of the Lord’s Message to Clare Jesus says… “My Precious instruments, the secret to your success is not in ambition, rushing around or pushing, but in resting in My ability to do it through you. Your greatest failure is in listening to the enemy, ‘Oh, what difference is your gift going to make? There are so many more that already have talent, your gift isn’t needed. Let the others more qualified and experienced do it.’” “No! That’s the Father of Lies speaking. I need the freshness of your approach to what you do. Whatever it is, you are unique and it is precisely this uniqueness that I need. People come and people go. Artists come and artists go. There is a time for creating and a time for resting. And each one of you has a season, whether your gift is in administration, feeding the poor, building, writing, teaching, art or music. Each of you have a unique spark of your Jesus in your hearts and I want you to give voice to that in what you do.” “There is an ebb and flow to the seasons, My People. There are times to give messages and there are times to be silent. Yes, I would like to speak to you everyday. However, there are times that I am waiting on circumstances to be fulfilled before I bring forth a teaching through Clare. Be patient. Things are taking place behind the scenes, things that are integral parts of the message and I am waiting for them to mature.” “One final warning. For those of you who are in bondage to a false humility, thinking you are nothing and your part doesn’t matter… To each I gave talents, to one five, to another 4, 3, 2, and 1. Do not be like the stubborn and foolish servant who buried his talent. Rather, in blind abandon, go forth with your gift producing and finishing each task in a timely fashion. Get it broadcast to the needy of this world and you will have no shame at My coming. To you I will say, ‘Well done My good and faithful servant; enter into your master’s joy.’” *** Excerpt of the Lord’s Message Jesus began… “The question is, will they give up their quest for greatness, having to be right all the time and abandon all earthly glory? They will not break with these demons unless they are willing to be stripped to a nothing and a nobody. This is extreme, but if they do not commit to this and stay with it, I can do nothing to prevent them from another infestation. They have got to be happy as a nobody and a nothing, or this inner drive for greatness will be used again and again by the enemy.” “This is an annihilation of self, and because of the nature of the real gifts I want to entrust vessels with, this foundation must be laid first. And I might add, protected vehemently from worldly and spiritual ambition. At a very early age these defensive behaviors can come onboard if a child feels rejected or unfavorably compared to other siblings.” “All of you My children must be little ones, if you want to be safe from deception, ambition, power and authority. It is a plain fact: unless you are happy to find the only meaning in your life in My presence, I cannot promote you. If you are still seeking the approval of your parents, whether you are 16 or 60, you will not hold the precious new wine. You must be totally happy to be a nobody, securely in My arms and no other.” “Any other motive will disqualify you and make you unfit as a vessel unto honor. There can only be one love in your lives. There can only be one meaning to your lives. There can only be one motive. Any other motive, magnified by Pride, will open the door to these beasts that scour the Earth looking for potential victims they can use to destroy others.” “Humble yourselves, My children, not with words, but in the depths of your hearts, in that quiet place before you entreat Me with your prayers. Humble yourselves. The living waters flow past the rocky heights and come to rest in the valley. You, likewise, be the valley where My anointing collects, be the well-watered Garden of My delights.” “Those who lose their lives and forsake themselves will surely find it. Put a strong guard over your hearts, minds and mouth lest you continue to sin through judgment. I am touching your hearts now with this desire. Guard and nurture it, allow it to advise you in all things and never be a source of judgment and criticism of those who labor for your souls, for they have suffered many deaths and die daily for you. Rather, manifest the new life of humility, gentleness, a teachable spirit and one who is quick to listen and has no real desire to speak. Then, by your meek and humble example, I will be able to entrust you with the greatest ministry gifts, and especially entrust you with My love.” “The soul who has not conquered their need to be more intelligent and better than others is a demon’s dream host.” |
