TREK JE EIGEN SCHOENEN UIT!
“Je loopt te vaak op eigen kracht, je werkt te vaak met eigen vuur!
KOM en rust in mijn hart.
Aan mijn boezem.
Rust uit en laat Mij het werk doen!
Vergeet wat achter je ligt! Vergeet je ouderlijk huis, vergeet je volk, IK de koning begeert je!
Laat verslagenheid niet toe!
Ik weet precies wat Ik doe en alles gebeurt op MIJN tijd!
Sommigen van jullie laten verslagenheid toe door het wereldgebeuren, IK heb alles in MIJN hand!
Anderen laten zich verslaan door de oorlog die woedt in eigen gedachten!
Kijk naar MIJ, niet naar gisteren en niet naar morgen!
Het is altijd VANDAAG en KIJKEN NAAR/OP MIJ!
Sommigen laten zich verslaan door andermans oordeel.
Ik Ben met je al de dagen van je leven!
Ik Ben de leidsman ten leven!
Sommigen zijn totaal geobserdeert door het woord bediening!
Je droomt erover denkt erover brandt van verlangen om …..ja wat eigenlijk?
Je ziet niet eens waar je nu staat en wat IK in en door je kan doen als jij je overgeeft…
Wanneer Ik je nu zend dan wandel jij in profaan vuur! Eigen vuur, waar Ik niets mee kan.
RUST in MIJ BLIJF in MIJ dan kan IK doen wat ik wil doen.
Stop met lopen totdat je de schoenen gevuld met eigen plannen hebt verwijdert!
Mozes moest zijn schoenen uitdoen want Hij stond op heilige grond!
En IK zond hem, zoals IK jullie wil zenden.
Dan schenkt Ik je de bereidtheid en geef je de ijver voor het evangelie van de vrede als schoenen aan je voeten.”
Jullie Vader.

Matthew 5,13
You are like salt for everyone on earth. But if salt no longer tastes like salt, how can it make food salty? All it is good for is to be thrown out and walked on.
Johan and I where sitting before Fathers trone this afternoon.
We took the Lord`s Supper.
He told us preciously when to take some bread, or drink some wine….
I started to sing a song from Darlene
You my God are holy……..
Suddenly the Lord began to speak:
“Here you have your home come more often!
Here you can be with Me without using words, here we talk to each other from heart to heart!
Your tears will soften My heart,
And My tears of joy, will cleans you and give you more strength!
pickle meat ( salted meat)
That kind of meat you can keep longer
For you that means:
**More Strength**
It is the dew for your spirit , Manna for your inner self and we become one!
Come more often, here you have your home!
You will be a part of My bread, My Body, My blood, My living water!
We will be one!”
We expierenced such a tremendous peace and joy!
Some of the words He spoke where for Johan and myself, but this part He wanted me to share with all of you….
Go to Him, seek Him with all of your heart, there is your home!
There you will find blessing for your soul!
There He can give you new strength!
I do hope this message will bless you

Hallo wereld!
BEWIJS EER AAN ZIJN ZOON!
* Psalm 2 : 12
Bewijs eer aan zijn zoon met een kus, anders ontvlamt zijn woede, en uw weg loopt dood!
Door: Catharina Schouten
Met dank aan : Johan Schouten
geschreven in : November 2005
Ik zelf heb mijn koning gezalfd
1 Waarom komen de volken in opstand en zinnen de naties op zinloze plannen?
2 Waarom stellen koningen van de aarde zich in slagorde op,
beramen vorsten een oorlogsplan tegen de HEER en tegen zijn gezalfde?
3 ‘Wij willen hun ketens verbreken en ons van hun boeien bevrijden.’
4 Die in de hemel woont lacht, de Heer spot met hen, 5 en in zijn woede spreekt Hij, zijn grimmigheid benauwt hen
: 6 ‘Ikzelf heb mijn koning gezalfd, op mijn heilige berg, op de Sion.’
7 Ik verkondig het besluit van de HEER; Hij zei tegen mij: ‘Jij bent mijn zoon, vandaag heb Ik je verwekt.
8 Vraag, en Ik geef je volken in bezit, de uithoeken van de aarde krijg je in eigendom.
9 Jij mag ze verpletteren met een ijzeren knots, ze stukslaan als waren het aarden potten.’
10 Nu dan, koningen, kom toch tot inzicht, jullie vorsten van de aarde, laat je vermanen;
11 onderwerp je aan de HEER in diep ontzag, kus zijn voeten met schrik en beven,
12 of Hij ontsteekt in woede en het is afgelopen met jullie; ja, zijn woede ontvlamt snel. Gelukkig allen die hun toevlucht nemen tot Hem.
De Heer bepaalde me bij het volgende: Zijn wegen zijn hoger dan de onze, Zijn gedachten gaan hoger dan de onze.
De Heer is Heer der heerscharen, Hij is Heer van de legermachten!
Boven aan dit artikel staat:
“Bewijs eer aan zijn zoon met een kus”
En toen ik dit las sloeg even de bliksem in! Want Judas begroette onze Messias met een kus, om Hem te verraden.
Maar dòòrdat hij dit deed, zijn jij en ik verlost, bevrijdt, dòòrdat hij dit deed, kon Jezus immers opgepakt worden en gekruisigd worden!
Het moest immers gebeuren, de Zoon moest gekruisigd worden, dat plan lag vast!
Is dit niet een sprekend voorbeeld van hoe hoog Gods gedachten en plannen zijn…hòe wonderlijk Zijn wegen…
Voor ons niet te doorgronden! Laten we nu eens kijken waar de Heer nu mee bezig is, voor zo ver we dat kunnen begrijpen en peilen…
Het lijkt erop dat het chaos is, dat we totaal niet functioneren.
De èèn viert kerst inclusief met boom, en ballen, de ander viert chanoeka de èèn eert de geboorte van Jezus ieder jaar opnieuw, de ander gelooft dat we alleen Zijn opstanding moeten herdenken…..We zijn in ieder geval uit onze Joodse/Hebreeuwse wortels gehaald,
(denk aan Keizer Constantijn) En de kerstboom, komt uit het zonnewende feest!
En de ballen staan voor: vruchtbaarheid op het land en vruchtbaarheid aangaande kinderen krijgen, het heeft NIETS met Jezus te maken! Ook Zijn geboorte is niet in december geweest, en het woord KERSTMIS kom je in de Bijbel NERGENS tegen!
Waarom komen zelfs ongelovigen in de kerk op kerstnacht…Baby Jezus valt wel te verdragen,
dààr hoef jij niet voor te sterven, dat is klein en lief en veilig…
De Koning die Hij is, dàt vraagt om andere beslissingen!
10 Nu dan, koningen, kom toch tot inzicht, jullie vorsten van de aarde, laat je vermanen;
11 onderwerp je aan de HEER in diep ontzag, kus zijn voeten met schrik en beven,
12 of Hij ontsteekt in woede en het is afgelopen met jullie; ja, zijn woede ontvlamt snel. Gelukkig allen die hun toevlucht nemen tot Hem.
quote:
Maar Jezus zegt ook zelf: De wet en de profeten hangen af van: DE LIEFDE!
En dat is HIJ! HIJ IS DE LIEFDE, DE VERLOSSER!
En iedere keer opnieuw bepaald Hij me erbij, dat als IEDER VOOR ZICH naar Hem keert, dan is het natuurlijke gevolg, dat we èèn worden …Het is zò belangrijk dat je zèlf de keus maakt, zèlf Zijn stem leert verstaan, zodat Hij jou kan leiden, en tot Zijn doel kan komen mèt jou!
Naar Hem toekomen vraagt ALLES! Om vervuld te worden, met de Geest moet jij dood…jouw vlees jouw ambities jouw ik…
Maar het mooie is, Hij brengt dan jouw ik tevoorschijn, zoals het was, toen Hij het maakte en vormde in de moederschoot, vrij van zonde…en zoals Hij het heeft bedoelt!
En wat is dan onze eerste opdracht? Heb God lief boven ALLES! Je naaste als JEZELF!
En hoe de weg loopt van die ander…dàt is aan Hem! Jij moet die ander lief hebben…
Maar allereerst GOD lief hebben èn volgen! Wat wilt U dat ik vandaag doen zal…
Je eigen ik dagelijks kruisigen!
Hij zal je dan in Zijn waarheid leiden, zodat je niet zult zijn als de andere volken,
alle afgoderij en alle onreinheid zal HIJ bij jou weghalen, als jij Hem àlles geeft!
Niet God die jou moet zegenen, maar:
HEER U MAG MIJ HELEMAAL HEBBEN OM TE WORDEN WIE U WILT TOT EER VAN UW NAAM!!!
De Heer wil van ons een krachtig leger maken, om de late regen
( een oogst van zielen) binnen te gaan halen…
Wij moeten een speerpunt worden een pijl, van LIEFDE!
Laten we eens een speerpunt onder de loep nemen:
Het begin van een speerpunt is een klomp staal.
Niets meer niets minder, een klomp staal, dààr begint het mee.
Het is vormloos reukloos smaakloos.
Deze klomp wordt in het vuur gegooid, en daardoor wordt het:
- Wit heet
- Rood gloeiend
Het wordt in de juiste vorm gesmeed.
Als dat gebeurt is, wordt het ondergedompeld in water òf in olie…het koelt dan heel snel af, en wordt daardoor staalhard!
Nu gaan we kijken wat dat voor ons inhoudt:
Wij beginnen als een vormloos begin…We komen tot de Heer, geven ons hart aan Hem, we komen tot bekering, en worden weder geboren.
Opnieuw geboren betekend dat, dit keer door de Geest, èn als het goed is door water
(doop door onderdompeling!)
Johannes 3: 5
Jezus antwoordde: ‘Waarachtig, ik verzeker u: niemand kan het koninkrijk van God binnengaan, tenzij hij geboren wordt uit water en geest.
Dit houdt in bij je volle bewustzijn, hiervoor kiezen, (dus geen babydoop) jij moet kunnen onderscheiden, weten, beseffen, mèt Jezus Zijn dood in te gaan, èn met Hem weer op te staan!
Dan worden we door het vuur van God (louterend vuur) rood gloeiend of wit heet gemaakt,
letterlijk staan we in vuur en vlam voor Hem, en geestelijk gezien reinigt het vuur ons.
We worden gevormd!
En dan komt er een periode dat we in de woestijn worden geplaatst
(Hoe lang, is vaak afhankelijk van de roep op je leven)
Maar in die dorre plaats word je gevuld met Zijn Woord (levend water) waardoor je hard wordt…
(tegen een stootje kunt) en je wordt gevuld met olie (Zijn Geest)
En je wordt gegoten in de juiste vorm…(Lijkend op Hem)
Maar, je bent niet alleen, je bent onderdeel van een heel Lichaam!
Van een leger!
Laten we nu eens kijken naar hoe een leger in elkaar zit.
Definitie van een legermacht:
Een eenheid in verscheidenheid en diversiteit functionerend onder èèn Generaal!
- Zelfde Naam
- Zelfde lichaam
- Zelfde uniform
En het bestaat uit verschillende onderdelen waarin iedereen een eigen specialiteit en eigen taak heeft.
Nu gaan we dit bekijken vanuit geestelijk perspectief:
Als het goed is zijn we een eenheid in verscheidenheid en diversiteit functionerend onder Het Hoofd: Jezus Christus
- We dragen dezelfde naam: Volgelingen van Jezus/Yeshua
- Zelfde Lichaam: Gelovigen
- Zelfde uniform: Bekleed met de LIEFDE
En het bestaat uit verschillende onderdelen:
Apostelen, Leraren, Herders enz.
Ef 4,11
En hij is het die apostelen heeft aangesteld, en profeten, evangelieverkondigers, herders en leraren
Ieder heeft een eigen specialiteit en taak, binnen de diverse onderdelen.
Waar je wordt geroepen door de Heer, wat jou plaats is, dààr moet je functioneren, en daar doe je wat Hij jou zegt!
Vermenging, is er niet in het leger, de onderdelen staan op zichzelf, maar vanuit de visie dat men èèn leger is, en dàt leger functioneert alleen maar goed als ALLE onderdelen goed functioneren!
En zo is het ook met ons!
Gods leger functioneert vanuit verschillende plaatsen, waarin mensen dienen met verschillende taken, maar we hebben elkaar nodig om het gehele leger te laten functioneren!
En God in Zijn totaliteit te laten zien! Allemaal moeten we luisteren we naar de generaal!
En dat is: Yeshua !!
Het leger kan niet winnen, als alleen de cavalerie (mannen met paarden) optrekt, men heeft elkaar nodig om de oorlog te winnen!
Nu nog even terug naar het begin:
De verwarring de chaos,- de doop- bestaat kerst? – vul zelf maar een onderwerp in…
Jezus zegt: oordeel niet, blijf in Mijn Liefde, en verkondig het evangelie!
Paulus die toch àlles wist, sprak na zijn bekering: “Ik weet niets anders dan Jezus Christus en Die gekruisigd!”
Vertel de mensen over Jezus, Zijn offer, Zijn bloed, dààr ligt onze zegen!
Laat iedereen dichterbij Hem komen, vraag het aan Hem, en doe dan wat er gevraagd wordt:
Bekeer je, laat je dopen!
En Hij zal je net als de speerpunt vormen en kneden, en hard maken, om goed te kunnen functioneren in Zijn leger!
Jeremia 10
Volg andere volken niet na 10 1 Luister naar de woorden die de HEER tot jullie spreekt, volk van Israël. 2 ‘Zo spreekt de HEER: Neem de gewoonten van andere volken niet over; schrik niet voor tekens aan de hemel, ook al schrikken die volken daarvan. 3 Wat zij doen betekent niets: ze hakken blokken hout in het bos, een vakman bewerkt ze met de beitel, 4 hij belegt ze met goud en zilver,met een hamer spijkert hij ze vast zodat ze niet wankelen. 5 Het zijn vogelverschrikkers tussen de komkommers: ze kunnen niet spreken, ze moeten gedragen worden, want ze kunnen geen stap verzetten. Wees niet bang voor hen, ze doen geen kwaad en goed doen ze evenmin.’
6 HEER, niemand is aan U gelijk,
U alleen bent groot, groot is uw almachtige naam.
7 Iedereen moet U vrezen, koning van de volken; dat komt U toe.
Onder de wijze mannen van volken en koninkrijken kan niemand U evenaren,
8 iedereen is dom en dwaas. Hun afgoden zijn van hout, 9 met bladzilver uit Tarsis en goud uit Ufaz belegd; /het werk van vakmannen, en door de handen van de goudsmid bewerkt. Bekleed met blauw en rood purper: alles is het werk van bekwame vaklui.
10 De HEER is werkelijk God,Hij is de levende God en koning voor altijd.
Voor zijn toorn beeft de aarde, geen volk is tegen zijn verbolgenheid bestand.
11 ‘Dit moet u tegen hen zeggen: De goden die de aarde en de hemel niet hebben gemaakt zullen van hemel en aarde verdwijnen. 12 Hij vormde de aarde door zijn kracht, bracht in zijn wijsheid de wereld tot stand, spande kundig de hemel.
13 Zijn donder dreunt: het water ruist neer uit de hemel. Wolken haalt Hij op van het einde van de aarde. Bij de regen smeedt Hij bliksems, Hij roept de wind uit zijn schuren tevoorschijn.
14 De mensen staan verstomd, ze begrijpen het niet. De goudsmid schaamt zich over zijn beelden, zijn gietsels zijn leugens, ze bezitten geen levenskracht, 15 ze betekenen niets, het zijn bespottelijke maaksels. Als de tijd van de straf komt, zullen ze te gronde gaan. 16 De God van Jakob is niet zoals zij; Hij is de schepper van het heelal en Israël is zijn eigen bezit.
Zijn naam is: de HEER van de machten!’
Je mag alles gebruiken tot eer van Zijn Naam, niets veranderen, graag in zijn geheel plaatsen.
Shalom en laat de Zoon in leven schijnen!

Civil Warr In The Body Of Jesus Christ
Civil War In The Body Of Jesus Christ
Catharina Schouten
Netherlands
I have been reading some of the articles about civil war in the church ETPV’s website and on other places.
I do not claim to know everything on the subject, but I would like to share how the Lord is dealing with me personally and what I think HIS way involves.
I see in some of the articles that they divide the law and grace …. Old and New.
Christian and Messianic, and so on.
But in fact these issues are ONE, like our Lord is One!
Christ did not remove the law, He fulfilled it! He removed the required sacrifice- HE is the sacrifice!
But He is also the one who brings us to the Father!
1 John 2: 22
Who is the liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the Antichrist, he who denies the Father and the Son.
We find the holiness and the Father in the Torah and Yeshua/Jesus brings us to HIM through His sacrifice!
ONLY THROUGH HIM WE WILL UNDERSTAND WHO THE FATHER IS AND REMEMBER HE IS A HOLY GOD!
HE COMES BACK FOR A BRIDE WITHOUT BLEMISH, SPOT OR WRINKLE!
Jesus HIMSELF took our sins and iniquity on that cross.
THROUGH HIM WE WILL ENTER THE HOLY OF HOLIES. THROUGH HIM THE LAW WILL BE WRITTEN IN OUR HEARTS!
THROUGH HIM WE WILL WORSHIP OUR FATHER IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH! NO NEW MOON OR WHATEVER WE (RE)DISCOVERED WILL BE MORE IMPORTANT THAN HIM!
IT IS ABOUT HIM. ONLY HIM! HE WILL MAKE US THE TRUE SONS OF OUR FATHER… WITHOUT FLESH!
Christianity says He is the end! You find Jesus, then “it is finished” they tell you!
(Thank you Paul Sherbow)
He says of Himself- “I am the Alpha AND the Omega, the Beginning and the End!” (The Triune God is One, remember?)
He is also the beginning because He is the only One who can bring us to the Father.
We pray in the name of Yeshua/Jesus
He brought me also to the Torah!
NO- not to become a Pharisee, or to hold on tight to the law in my own strength!
NO!
I let HIM, allowed HIM, with my free will to remove my flesh and fleshly way of thinking bit by bit.
When my flesh has been taken away, He can fill me and give me more of HIS Spirit, which allows HIM to write HIS law in and on my heart!
The only division and the only civil war that will take place is
SPIRITUAL!
2 Corinthians 10
3 For though we walk in the flesh, we don’t wage war according to the flesh;
4 for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the throwing down of strongholds,
5 throwing down imaginations and every high thing that is exalted against the knowledge of God, and bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ;
6 and being in readiness to avenge all disobedience, when your obedience will be made full.
It is between Spirit and flesh!
He is NOT asking us to kill our brothers….
DON’T JUDGE- it will come back to yourself!
Matthew 7
1 “Don’t judge, so that you won’t be judged.
2 For with whatever judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with whatever measure you measure, it will be measured to you.
3 Why do you see the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but don’t consider the beam that is in your own eye?
4 Or how will you tell your brother, ‘Let me remove the speck from your eye;’ and behold, the beam is in your own eye?
5 You hypocrite! First remove the beam out of your own eye, and then you can see clearly to remove the speck out of your brother’s eye.
Please read this entire scripture for yourself!
Matthew 7:21
Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter into the Kingdom of Heaven; but he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.
Not everyone wanting to enter the Kingdom of Heaven will be there, but that is for the LORD to judge!
John 16: 31
Jesus answered them, “Do you now believe?
32 Behold, the time is coming, yes, and has now come, that you will be scattered, everyone to his own place, and you will leave me alone. Yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me.
33 I have told you these things, that in me you may have peace. In the world you have oppression; but cheer up! I have overcome the world.”
What is this separating that has already begun?
There are those that are crucified and living IN The Spirit, and those who call themselves Christians, but are still living in the flesh!
I am NOT Christian. I am NOT Jewish. I am not Messianic, Baptist or whatever. HE LIVES IN ME! More and more!
The only place we will find true freedom is when we stay at the CROSS!
Every day we must deny ourselves, take up our cross, and ask “Father, what do YOU want of me?”
HIS will, not ours. HIS way, never mine. We must stay on that narrow path!
In this way HIS LOVE, HIS WISDOM, and HIS PROTECTION IS MINE!
The coming war is between the anointed and the antichrist, (meaning against the anointing)!
Some are waiting for one person who will show up as THE antichrist!
But the spirit of it is already here.
We need lights and music and marketing to make our churches and events look nicer, more inviting and to keep the people inside.
All the while our Father is saying SPEAK MY WORD- it will not be in vain!
It will accomplish what it is supposed to do, and it will not come back empty!
The first congregations shared everything they had. They went to the temple together and met in each others’ houses every day.
The Lord made their numbers grow. HE brought new people! They did not use technical shows, human doctrines, or any of the other things going on inside our churches today to bring in the numbers. They simply obeyed, and HE brought new souls!
He confirmed them with HIS miracles and wonders!
Now in Genesis, we can (already) see what is wrong.
They where tempted by satan to eat from the tree of knowledge. After they had, they did not confess to their sin. On the contrary! They blamed each other, the snake AND the Lord.
KNOWLEDGE KNOWLEDGE
- again we are polluted with this puffed-up spirit. A humble housewife can give a word or a dream, or share a vision she has been given from the Lord, but if the DOCTOR of that town and in that church gives a word, then it is more valued!
We fight each other with our revelations, instead of using them ALL together to accomplish our Lord’s plan. Instantly, we build up walls if someone else does not see our point of view, and satan gets his chance to throw arrows and divide us further!
Christian, Messianic and so on- titles all working as walls between us- causing this civil war in the church.
The only thing He is asking from us is to BE HIS WITNESSES so people will be drawn to HIM!
LOVE ONE ANOTHER!
Forgive, and bless your enemy!
Love the Lord with all thy heart! Love also others as yourself!
What is the purpose of us being here? To gain knowledge?
NO!
It is instead to get an intimate relationship with HIM! To become ONE with HIM!
Like when He built the first temple:
Exodus 36
1 “Bezalel and Oholiab shall work with every wise-hearted man, in whom Yahweh has put wisdom and understanding to know how to work all the work for the service of the sanctuary, according to all that Yahweh has commanded.”
2 Moses called Bezalel and Oholiab, and every wise-hearted man, in whose heart Yahweh had put wisdom, even everyone whose heart stirred him up to come to the work to do it:
3 and they received from Moses all the offering which the children of Israel had brought for the work of the service of the sanctuary, with which to make it. They brought yet to him freewill-offerings every morning.
4 All the wise men, who performed all the work of the sanctuary, each came from his work which they did.
5 They spoke to Moses, saying, “The people bring much more than enough for the service of the work which Yahweh commanded to make.”
We are now HIS temple and He brought a very wise hearted man INTO our heart- THE SPIRIT!
He is busy trying to rebuild our temple. He removes the dirt, the flesh, and He fills the empty spaces with more and more of Himself!
Some have been so busy with all their conferences and are forever chasing wonders and miracles, or almost worshipping the speakers and such things.
But they never sit at the Father’s feet. They do not have an intimate relationship with Daddy!
He is still so far away (He is there but they do not recognize it)
Because we no longer believe in the anointing anymore we try so hard to make the events look welcoming, and we feel we must bring in worldly stuff to get the people to come and stay!
What we need instead is real repentance!
The naked truth! ALL of it!
Like- He hung on the cross and told the murderer who CONFESSED that he will be with Him in paradise today!
We do NOT need more knowledge- it will only bring more barriers, more walls.
HE is the answer. HE is what we need! Yeshua /Jesus brings us to the Father into HIS glory realm!
Not by might, nor by power BUT THROUGH HIS SPIRIT, saith the Lord!
Many, many times now I openly repented of my ways because I feel He called me to do so.
He wants me to be honest and keep on the small path, walking carefully in the footsteps of Jesus Himself.
Many people hate me or at least don’t include me in THEIR groups.
I am dangerous, they say, because they do not like that small path. They are still looking for some excitement.
While the path I took so many years ago was about dying, cleansing and persecution!
But I see the fruit more and more because He continues to whistle me back to that one place over and over again: THE CROSS!
Out of this world, into HIS kingdom, and be still.
Let HIM be the ruler of your life!
Every time I look at another person THROUGH HIS EYES,
no matter how much they hurt me in the flesh-
HIS LOVE WILL CONQUER each and every time!
Now, the bottom-line of this email:
Our God is ONE. The Bible is ONE. The Torah and GRACE are ONE. Law and FREEDOM are ONE.
How can we understand this, you ask?
We MUST give ourselves to HIM! We must walk the path Jesus did, including: the desert periods, sitting at Fathers feet being alone with Him!
Gethsemane, (the place of pressing) and finally to Golgotha to DIE!
I AM DEAD- HE LIVES IN ME!
Without HIS sacrifice, I can NOT understand the TORAH. I read it in the wrong way. I will try to keep the law through my fleshy way of thinking.
Now through HIS sacrifice, I see a love letter, Paul (from IFBN, who is a Jewish guy) explained it as meaning: feeding-trough
So- being lawless, living without the law and without the Torah is being /living without the Heavenly Manna HE gives to us!
He once said to me that sharing the gospel only out of Torah makes you harsh and you become a Pharisee. Sharing it only out of the renewed covenant makes you think about freedom in the wrong way!
Where the spirit is, is freedom-but you think that you can do whatever YOU want. And is this the truth?
Paul showed us the story of Jonah- read it for yourselves and think about it.
If you want to know the meaning behind it, write to Paul Sherbow of IFBN!
Or to me but before you write to any of us ask FATHER yourself!
You will find freedom IN THE CROSS!
You will be without your flesh and fleshly way of thinking!
THAT, MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS, IS THE ONE AND ONLY FREEDOM YOU WILL EVER FIND
because YOUR SOUL WILL COME HOME!
Our new radio program Bethesda (HIS living water will move) will start next week.
The Father gave us a new name NOT TMTR Teshuva MESSIANIC Television and Radio BUT TSTR Teshuva SPONGE Television and Radio.
Teshuva SPONGE Television & Radio
Sponge is:
Spirit led online Godly Education
Why a sponge you might say? Well, the Lord gave that word to Corrine and if you read the explanation on our site you will understand why. ![]()
I am NOT Christian, Messianic, Baptist or whatever. My Father, I AM that I AM, says I am reborn and will continue to be reborn again, again and again. Every day I must take up my cross of self-denial, in obedience to HIM. That makes me a son of GOD, not a Christian, Messianic, etc.
The sons of God need to become visible The Spirit of Yeshua in us will speak through us and will be walking on earth again!
Until He comes back HIMSELF!
* In the Spirit is not a different between daughters and sons!
Galatians 3: 28
Faith in Christ Jesus is what makes each of you equal with each other, whether you are a Jew or a Greek, a slave or a free person, a man or a woman.
John 19:29
29 Now a vessel full of vinegar was set there; so they put a sponge full of the vinegar on hyssop, and held it at his mouth.
Hyssop stands for cleansing and He Himself is our sponge. He who lives in us is the filter, so we will be pure and without spot, wrinkle and blemish!
We need to die to self and sometimes drink Mara, the bitter water, (Remember the Israelites in the desert?) as the result of our sinful behaviour… but the results will be that we will resurrect with HIS resurrection power! And the sons of God will be visible!
Hebrew 10
1 For the law, having a shadow of the good to come, not the very image of the things, can never with the same sacrifices year by year, which they offer continually, make perfect those who draw near.
2 Or else wouldn’t they have ceased to be offered, because the worshippers, having been once cleansed, would have had no more consciousness of sins?
3 But in those sacrifices there is yearly reminder of sins.
4 For it is impossible that the blood of bulls and goats should take away sins.
5 Therefore when he comes into the world, he says, “Sacrifice and offering you didn’t desire, But a body did you prepare for me;
6 In whole burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin you had no pleasure.
7 Then I said, ‘Behold, I have come (In the scroll of the book it is written of me) To do your will, God.’”
8 Previously saying, “Sacrifices and offerings and whole burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin you didn’t desire, neither had pleasure in them” (those which are offered according to the law),
9 then he has said, “Behold, I have come to do your will.” He takes away the first, that he may establish the second,
10 by which will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
11 Every priest indeed stands day by day ministering and often offering the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins,
12 but he, when he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God;
13 from that time waiting until his enemies are made the footstool of his feet.
14 For by one offering he has perfected forever those who are being sanctified.
15 The Holy Spirit also testifies to us, for after saying,
16 “This is the covenant that I will make with them: ‘After those days,’ says the Lord, ‘I will put my laws on their heart, I will also write them on their mind;’” then he says,
17 “I will remember their sins and their iniquities no more.”
18 Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.
19 Having therefore, brothers, boldness to enter into the holy place by the blood of Jesus,
20 by the way which he dedicated for us, a new and living way, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;
21 and having a great priest over the house of God,
22 let’s draw near with a true heart in fullness of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and having our body washed with pure water,
23 let us hold fast the confession of our hope unyieldingly. For he who promised is faithful.
24 Let us consider how to provoke one another to love and good works,
25 not forsaking our own assembling together, as the custom of some is, but exhorting one another; and so much the more, as you see the Day approaching. 26 For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remains no more a sacrifice for sins,
27 but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and a fierceness of fire which will devour the adversaries.
28 A man who disregards Moses’ law dies without compassion on the word of two or three witnesses.
29 How much worse punishment, do you think, will he be judged worthy of, who has trodden under foot the Son of God, and has counted the blood of the covenant with which he was sanctified an unholy thing, and has insulted the Spirit of grace?
30 For we know him who said, “Vengeance belongs to me,” says the Lord, “I will repay.” Again, “The Lord will judge his people.”
31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. 32 But remember the former days, in which, after you were enlightened, you endured a great struggle with sufferings;
33 partly, being exposed to both reproaches and oppressions; and partly, becoming partakers with those who were treated so.
34 For you both had compassion on me in my chains, and joyfully accepted the plundering of your possessions, knowing that you have for yourselves a better possession and an enduring one in the heavens.
35 Therefore don’t throw away your boldness, which has a great reward.
36 For you need endurance so that, having done the will of God, you may receive the promise.
37 “In a very little while, He who comes will come, and will not wait.
38 But the righteous will live by faith. If he shrinks back, my soul has no pleasure in him.”
39 But we are not of those who shrink back to destruction, but of those who have faith to the saving of the soul.
Through Jesus and HIS Spirit, who wants to cleanse us, we can come into the HOLY OF HOLIES without our flesh! Flesh and Spirit can NOT dwell together!
Exodus 4
24 It happened on the way at a lodging place, that Yahweh met him and wanted to kill him.
25 Then Zipporah took a flint, and cut off the foreskin of her son, and cast it at his feet; and she said, “Surely you are a bridegroom of blood to me.”
26 So he let him alone. Then she said, “You are a bridegroom of blood,” because of the circumcision.
We see here the first example of what Jesus should do for us! He the Father circumcised HIS only begotten Son so HIS blood could protect us, because Abba Father does NOT recognize flesh!
We can NOT stay in HIS presence in our FLESH!
What do you choose today?
Going to war with your brothers, or fighting your own flesh by RESTING at HIS feet?
Bless you all

Dream from the Lord
I had a dream some days ago.
I was sitting in a chair and I was in a conference, a meeting.
There was much going on, a lot of words…..prosperity teaching, and to be honest it was all about
us!!!
Behind me I saw a woman, and for some reason I could read her thoughts.
She was in a lot of pain, and I could “hear” her say: “this does not help at all, this is not good”
Suddenly I felt how something shoot me out of my chair! Like a rocket!
And while I was standing in the room, my mouth went open and a sound like the tone of a shofar
came out of my mouth.
It was a deep message I felt the fire of the Lord and He was calling them back to the pure message of the gospel!
Interpretation:
The woman I saw in my dream represents The Bride the body of Jesus/Yeshua
It is a sick body a body that is out of balance!
The Lord is calling us back to listen to the plain truth!!!
Leaders need to stand up and lead the people!
Discipleship, Equipping, it is really necessary for this time!
He is coming back for His Bride but this bride must be without blemish spot or wrinkle!
2 Timothy 4
3 The time is coming when people won’t listen to good teaching. Instead, they will look for teachers who will please them by telling them only what they are itching to hear. 4 They will turn from the truth and eagerly listen to senseless stories. 5 But you must stay calm and be willing to suffer. You must work hard to tell the good news and to do your job well.

Warning For The Entire Bride ( 2009)
Warning For The Entire Bride
Catharina Schouten
Netherlands
October 03, 2009
First of all I write this down without the help of Karen (who is correcting the grammar usually) So please be patient and ask the Lord to read and to receive it into your heart with the help of His Spirit thank you!
Psalms 32
8 I will instruct you and teach you in the way which you shall go. I will counsel you with my eye on you.
9 Don’t be like the horse, or like the mule, which have no understanding, Who are controlled by bit and bridle, or else they will not come near to you.
10 Many sorrows shall be to the wicked, But he who trusts in Yahweh, loving kindness shall surround him.
11 Be glad in Yahweh, and rejoice, you righteous! Shout for joy, all you who are upright in heart!
The passed two weeks I received two dreams from the Lord. Both dreams where so penetrating that I could not get them out of my mind and thoughts! The first dream was about a car, nothing happened but the car gave me the chills! I even woke up in the early morning, just before Johan my husband had to leave for work. And half a wake half a sleep I said to him: “car!” That is the only word I could say to him, then I went back to bed.
This passed night I had another dream. I saw before my own eyes how a little child was hit by a car and died. It was so real that I feel I was literally there! The father of the child was just standing next to me with in his arms a baby, and he was so busy talking with others he did not pay any attention to the other child! Despite of the fact that I tried to warn him several times that his little child was walking close to the open door! This morning while Johan and I where talking with the Lord these two dreams came back into my heart and I said: “Father why did I receive those dreams and what is the meaning of them?”
The Lord said: “This is a warning for the entire Bride”
Then the well known fire came over me, the fire I have felt for such a long time now, every time He gives me a message that I need to send! Today we have a day of so to speak, normally we have our Sabbath meeting, but not today, and we thought we had the day for ourselves! But it felt as if Angels carried me downstairs so I could sit behind my laptop and I only have to put my fingers on the keyboard, the message is flowing out of my fingers!
Thus saith the Lord:
“The child is born. The new thing you all have been waiting for is finally there.
It came healthy on this world. And all of you feel the joy, the joy of all the new things that are happening. The joy of breakthrough!
But there are two kinds of bystanders at this moment.
There are those who I have learned to wait on My Voice, and who will not walk until I tell them to.
They cherish this new thing with peacefulness and dignity, and they ask Me what to do next!
But there are also those who, from the moment the child was born, immediately start to run, they run without knowing what to do!
Out of this madness of pressure out of their flesh they forget about the child!
They do not pay attention to it. Their visions and expectations, and all other things out of their own flesh make them forget about My plan!
This new born child is a spiritually child. It is born out of My Spirit not by might or by power, only through My Spirit!
STOP!
Hold still, only expect it from Me! I Am is The One Who begun this new thing, and I Am will also finish it!
Let me be The One Who can guide you! Just as I have been teaching you how to do that!
My children, by now you all must know how to run, through Me and in Me,
you must have learned by now to rum without the control of bit and bridle.
Cherish this new thing, this movement of My Spirit that slowly is moving forth over the entire earth!
Start walking but only in My Footsteps! I will position you!
This child that is born healthy must be raised healthy so I can glorify My Name!
The chance that this child could die because you are walking out of your own fleshly thoughts is not unthinkable
If you stay joined to me, and I stay joined to you, then you will produce lots of fruit.”
Your Father!
Explanation of the dream:
The father of the child who stood there talking:
For some of you this new period is a time of a new thing. But some of you will receive several new things! Last year the Father spoke to me and said: 2009 is the year of suddenly. Suddenly out of the blue things ARE changed!
But many of you are so busy with this new thing (or things) that you totally forget the POINT that it is all about the Lord and HIS plan!
The father with a baby in his arms and a child that already could walk has two explanations:
1. Situations are changing so fast, that we can hardly cope/deal with it! The child is born, and the child can walk!
2. Only by keeping our eyes on the Lord we will be capable to do what He wants us to do! So HIS plans can come true!
In the dream I warned the father of the child several times to keep his eyes on the child meaning:
The Lord has raised a new generation of apostles and prophets He learned them to serve HIM by serving the rest of the Body of His Bride!
If HIS prophets send out a warning we better pay attention, cause in the dream the father of the child did not pay any attention and the effects where terrible!

The Time Of The Woman
Calling My Daughters
received at May 2005 through Catharina Schouten
Dance, My bride. Dance, daughter of Zion, the dance of liberty.
Dance, My daughter, Dance. Drop those bandages.
Come out of your hiding place. I AM is calling you by your name! Stand. Stand. I will increase (promote) you. Dance. Dance the dance of liberty.
Take of the bandages. The smell of myrrh is filling the room. Your beauty may be seen. Stand up, Lazarus. Stand up, daughter of Zion. Stand up. The light will come over you. Dance the dance of liberty. I AM is blowing. I AM is blowing over you with the wind of My Spirit.
Come! Stand up. Stand up. Stand up. I AM is calling you! Dance, My love.
Dance your dance of freedom I saw a golden door handle and the door went open. I saw a person come out of bandages … and Jesus on a white horse. His hand took the hand of His daughter, His Bride. It is time to stand up in the freedom of the Spirit! This word is for some individuals (daughters of Yeshua), but also for the Bride — the Body of Christ!
Call For The Women Who Are Paid To Weep
Catharina Schouten
Luke 13: 16
This woman belongs to the family of Abraham, but Satan has kept her bound for eighteen years. Isn’t it right to set her free on the Sabbath?” 17 Jesus’ words made his enemies ashamed. But everyone else in the crowd was happy about the wonderful things he was doing.
It is time that we as His daughters stand up, and proclaim the good news!
In September ( 29th of September close to Yom Kippoer) we will have a meeting in the Netherlands to let the wind of the Spirit flow!
My vision is that we will go with women all over the world to Jerusalem, to weep there for the Nations!
Father told me, Your tears will soften My heart!
Jeremiah 9: 17 The Lord All-Powerful said,
“Send for the women who are paid to weep”
Vision:
Yeshua /Jesus is standing behind us! With one hand He is drawing us closer to Him! And we are leaning with our back towards Him….With His left hand He is holding us close to His heart!
His right hand makes a sign:
STOP!
He told me in my heart: ” I wont allow any longer that My daughters are being oppressed! No longer! I will not allow it, that My daughters are being humiliated, that they are not allowed to do what I Am calling them to do..! I will open a door for them, but although I will OPEN the door, the hallway is full of cobweb and you must clean it! How? By proclaiming My word, and prayer and persevere (persist) Some of you I will take to there Gethsemane. It will be a desert period so they will only lean on Me!
Do not judge and do not be angry at each other…Only lean on your beloved!”
Galations 3: 28
Faith in Christ Jesus is what makes each of you equal with each other, whether you are a Jew or a Greek, a slave or a free person, a man or a woman.
We are one in Christ!
THE TIME OF THE WOMAN
Jim Mellard
I have had this in my Spirit for several days and now I believe that I have
been given release.
This is the year of the WOMAN..This is the year that I shall put into place
the faithful ones, the ones that I have tested and found true.
You have seen Me raise up a few good WOMEN.
As the Lord spoke I saw WOMEN in
churches under Pastors that would not allow them to minister. They were not
allowed to minister in the Sanctuary . I saw many WOMEN teaching Sunday
School because this was the only ministry they were allowed. I saw WOMEN
with 5 fold calls on their lives changing diapers, I saw WOMEN submit.till
there were tears for the hurting souls that were not being ministered to.
.Then I heard the Spirit of the Lord say.The time has been shortened.The
harvest is great, yet the workers are so few. I am giving out new
assignments to the WOMEN, the ones that said..YES..send me Lord I will
go..Some of you have been asked to move to different parts of the country
and are concerned about you husbands, your children. Dear ones fret not .If
I give you an assignment, I prepare ahead for you in every area of your
life..I will take care of you and all that you have.Fear not. For you see I
am sending some of you to take positional authority in the principalities, I
am putting you in charge.I am charging you to take the land.
I am calling some to start new Ministries . Some of you know that I have
called you and anointed you as Apostles and Prophetess yet the doors have
been closed to you to minister and take charge.No more for I am removing the
barriers that have been put up and have gone before you to prepare the way
…
2007 will be the year of the WOMAN, I shall release the ones that I have
trained, I will now provide the funds to accomplish the promises that I
have made to you, to you that have said .yes. send me .I have trained an
Army that I am now releasing and will cause you to carry Anointing to
Govern, to Guide, to Guard, Teach, and to Protect and to minister at a level
that has never been seen before. Oh you have thought about it, dreamed about
it and asked for it.Now I release it to you..2007 is your year..
I am preparing a new leadership for My army, the call has gone out from the
North to the South to the West to the East. Some of you have been sitting at
home waiting for this call, some have been told that you are WOMAN and can’t
do this or that. .I say..speak and the mountain and watch.. I say lay hands
on the sick and watch.., I say prophesy to the 4 winds and they shall obey,
for you see I have tested you, I have tried you and I have allowed you to
be brow beat, humbled, and persecuted for My name sake..NOW..stand tall and
turn your face into the wind of the Holy Spirit for He brings the anointing
that you will need to fulfill the assignment that I am giving.

When The Going Gets Tough
When The Going Gets Tough
When The Going Gets Tough, The Tough Get Going
I was standing on a kind of tower, a watch tower, with Yeshua. From the four corners of the world, people were coming. The frontline was bright with a light shining upon them.
The people who walked behind them looked like a smaller level, but still there was light. Looking at this from above, standing on the watchtower, it looked like a big diamond with cutting glass.
Suddenly, there was a big hand that took the “diamond.”
During that process, the diamond sparkled and twinkled.. The light shone to the four corners of the world. Then, the stone was placed in a ring and Yeshua put it on His finger.
Suddenly at the same moment, little pieces fell to the ground.
These little pieces were literally pulverized.
These small pieces were not a real diamond, but an imitation.
What remains is the real thing — a real diamond of excellent quality.
Interpretation:
The diamond stands for the children of Yeshua.
They have been through the process of His cleansing fire and purification and shaking and are ready.
The difference between the groups of people who carried the light is the different measure of anointing and the different call upon their lives.
When the stone was placed in a ring, that symbolized that Yeshua is calling His children together to be one army under His protection.
The pieces that were pulverized when they fell to the ground after Yeshua put the ring on His finger are symbolic of the people who were going with the flow … with the rest of the people, but they did not realize that Yeshua looks at the hearts of people, and He can read it!
They seemed to be real, but they were not.
Their hearts were not changed because they had not died to self.
For the battle that is coming, only the real diamonds,
the ones who are totally empty of their own plans and visions, can be used.
They are the true Spirit-led people.
Yeshua putting the ring on His finger also stands for the bride that married the Bridegroom
My Words Are A Powerful Fire
A Message of Hope
The Lord said:
My words are a powerful fire; they are a hammer that shatters rocks. Read for yourselves Jeremiah 23: 1 – 29
“I Am that I Am, I give to thee My Word. My word will cleanse your heart,
Will destroy every evil…..I will come back for a Bride without spot or wrinkle!
So give to Me all that you are holding back! Give to ME all that I already see! Give to Me so I can purify you!”
Vision:
A road, and at the end of that road is Jesus standing! He told me:
“When they crucified me, I was naked! They paint Me however with a loin cloth!
But I was naked!!!I Am the naked TRUTH!
When you become MY child, MY blood will protect you…..But between you and Me are layers….( Your lies your sin, and so on)
Give ME you heart I will remove those layers and MY blood will cover your naked body My blood will cover YOU!”
Now back to the vision:
A long road, and at the end is Jesus standing. We want to walk towards Jesus with our control, our friends, our addictions, our plans, our ambitions…..But He wants us to come without LEANING on all those things!
He is telling us:
“RUN TO ME! Yes you will feel like you will drown but I will, I repeat I will save you! Then you will come home into MY heart, and I will protect you and lead you and guide you!
MY BLOOD WILL COVER YOU!”
Daniel 10 Many shall purify themselves, and make themselves white, and be refined; but the wicked shall do wickedly; and none of the wicked shall understand; but those who are wise shall understand.
Zechariah 9 I will bring the third part into the fire, And will refine them as silver is refined, And will test them like gold is tested.
They will call on my name, and I will hear them. I will say, ‘It is my people;’ And they will say, ‘Yahweh is my God.’”
Be blessed by this message all honor to HIM!

Honour The Son With A Kiss
Honour The Son With A Kiss Word/article out of 2005
Catharina Schouten
Psalms 2:12
12 Kiss the son, lest he be angry, and you perish in the way, For his wrath will soon be kindled. Blessed are all those who take refuge in him.
With thanks to : Johan Schouten
Translation: Jan Pruis
Psalms 2
I Myself have anointed My King
1 Why do the nations rage,
And the peoples plot a vain thing?
2 The kings of the earth take a stand,
And the rulers take counsel together,
Against Yahweh, and against his anointed, The word “anointed” is the same as the word for “Messiah” or “Christ” saying,
3 “Let’s break their bonds apart,
And cast away their cords from us.”
4 He who sits in the heavens will laugh.
The Lord will have them in derision.
5 Then he will speak to them in his anger,
And terrify them in his wrath:
6 “Yet I have set my king on my holy hill of Zion.”
7 I will tell of the decree.
Yahweh said to me, “You are my son.
Today I have become your father.
8 Ask of me, and I will give the nations for your inheritance,
The uttermost parts of the earth for your possession.
9 You shall break them with a rod of iron.
You shall dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.”
10 Now therefore be wise, you kings.
Be instructed, you judges of the earth.
11 Serve Yahweh with fear,
And rejoice with trembling.
12 Kiss the son, lest he be angry, and you perish in the way,
For his wrath will soon be kindled.
Blessed are all those who take refuge in him.
Distribution and updates: www.ebible.org
The Lord drew my attention to the following:
His ways are higher than our ways, and His thoughts than our thoughts.
The Lord is Lord of Hosts, He is the Most High Who rules in the kingdom of men!
The title heading this article is : “Honour the Son with a kiss”
Upon reading this, my spirit was briefly struck by a bolt of lightning !
In order to betray Him, Jude greeted our Messiah with a kiss…
But because of him doing so, you and I came to be redeemed and delivered! For as a result of Jude kissing Him, Jesus could get run in and be crucified!
After all it had to happen, the Son was to be crucified according to the divine schedule!
Isn’t this a striking example of how highly elevated Gods plans and thoughts are……how wonderful His ways?
Not to be fathomed by any of us!
Let’s have a closer look at what the Lord is working on, insofar as we are capable of understanding and probing His dealings…..
It looks as if chaos reigns supreme, as if we do not function whatsoever……
The one celebrates Christmas with a tree and balls, the other observes Chanuka. One celebrates the birth of Jesus year after year, the other is convinced that we should only commemorates His resurrection…..
No matter how, we have been taken away from our Jewish/Hebrew roots (think of Emperor Constantine).
And, yes: the christmas tree is derived from the pagan Winter Solstice rituals!!!
The balls symbolize fertility of the land and fertility in offspring – in other words, it has NOTHING to do with Jesus!
Also His birth couldn’t possibly have occurred in the month of December and the word CHRISTMAS is not mentioned ANYWHERE in the Bible!
Why do even unbelievers flock to churches on Christmas Eve ?
Well, baby Jesus is easy to tolerate… You do not need to die to yourself to hold it… It’s small, cute, ‘safe’ and quite managable…..
But Jesus, being the King He is, calls for decisions of another kind !
Psalms 2:10-12,
10 Now therefore be wise, you kings.
Be instructed, you judges of the earth.
11 Serve Yahweh with fear,
And rejoice with trembling.
12 Kiss the son, lest he be angry, and you perish in the way,
For his wrath will soon be kindled.
Blessed are all those who take refuge in him.
Jesus also says it Himself: The Law and the Prophets depend on: LOVE! And that Love, that is HE HIMSELF!!! HE IS THE LOVE, THE REDEEMER!!!
Time and again He reminds me of the fact that if only EVERYONE FOR HIM/HERSELF turns toward Him, then the natural result will be that we become one …..Therefore it is vitally important that you make the choice for yourself that you learn to hear and perceive His voice for yourself, so that He can lead you and fulfil his purposes in you!
To come to Him means giving up on EVERYTHING! In order to be filled with the Spirit, all of you – your own flesh, your ambitions, your ‘self’ – will have to die……
But the beauty of it all is that He will then proceed to bring forth your real you, the ‘you’ He meant you to be when He formed you in the mother’s womb, free of sin…..perfect!
So, what then should be our foremost commission?
Love God above ALL ELSE! And your neighbour like YOURSELF!
And whatever course the path of the other person will take……that is up to Him!
Your only assignment is to love that other person…….But first of all you have to love GOD and follow Him!
Lord, what is it that You want me to do today? That should be our daily question… Crucifying our own self on a daily basis!
He will then lead you in His truth, so that you won’t be like the other nations! He will purge you of all idolatry and uncleanliness, if only you give Him your ALL!
It is not a matter of God having to bless you, but of giving yourself to him in an attitude of
LORD, YOU MAY HAVE ALL OF ME SO THAT YOU CAN MAKE ME INTO THE PERSON YOU WANT ME TO BE, TO THE GLORY OF YOUR NAME!!!
The Lord wants to build of us a powerful army, capable of bringing about the latter rain and bringing about the ensuing endtime harvest of souls…..
We have to be forged into a spearhead, an arrow of LOVE!
Let’s now take a closer look at the spearhead:
The beginning of a spearhead is a lump of steel.
No more, no less than a lump of steel, to begin with.
Formless, odourless, tasteless.
This lump is being thrown into the fire which turns it:
- white-hot
- glowing red
It is then being forged into the right shape.
When that has happened, it is being submerged in water or in oil…..As a result of this treatment it cools down very quickly and becomes ‘as hard as steel’ !
Now let’s look what this all implies for us:
We start off as a formless lump…..
We come to the Lord, give our heart to Him, we repent and are being born again.
Being born again means (this time) being born by the Spirit and (as it should be) by water (baptism by immersion)!
John 3: 5
5 Jesus answered, “Most assuredly I tell you, unless one is born of water and spirit, he can’t enter into the Kingdom of God!
This baptism by immersion means that you consciously choose for it. In other words, this is not a matter of infant baptism, as you have to be able to discern, to know, to realize that you are partaking in Jesus’ death, burial and resurrection!
Subsequently (or so it should be) we are being made red-hot or white-hot by the (purging) fire of God. Literally we are set ablaze with passion for Him as His fire is spiritually cleansing and purifying us.
We are being moulded!
And then comes this period that we are being situated in the desert (How long this will be depends on the calling on our life.)
In that barren place you are being filled with His Word (His living water) which hardens you……(so that you will be better able to stand some rough handling) and you are being filled with oil (His Spirit)
Meanwhile you are being die-cast in the right mold…..(resembling Him)
But, you are not alone! You are part of a whole Body! Part of an army!
Let’s now look how an army fits together.
Definition of an army:
Unity in diversity, functioning under one General!
- same Name
- same Body
- same uniform
And this army consists of distinct units in which everyone has his/her own specialty and unique assignment.
Now we are going to look at it from a spiritual perspective:
If everything works out as it is meant to be, we are a unity in diversity, functioning under The Head:
Jesus Christ
We all bear the same name: followers of Jesus/Yeshua
We belong to the same Body: believers
We wear the same uniform: clothed with LOVE
And our army is made up of diverse units:
Apostles, Teachers, Pastors (Shepherds) et cetera.
Ephesians 4,11
11 He gave some to be apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, shepherds
and teachers;
Each of us has his or her own specialty and unique assignment, within the diverse units.
The place where you are called by the Lord, is the place where you have to function, doing whatever He gives you to do!
There is no blending in the army. The units are existing in themselves but all the while operating from the vision that they are functioning as part of one and the same army, an army that only functions well if ALL units function well!
And so it is with us! God’s army functions from diverse locations, with people serving with different assignments, but all the same we need each other to make the army as a whole function and to show forth the diversity of God’s splendour!
Each and everyone of us has to listen to the General! And that General is: Yeshua !!
The army cannot be victorious if only the cavalry (soldiers on horseback) marches on. We need each other to win the war!
No let’s return to the beginning:
The chaos and confusion on
- the baptism
- the meaning and validity of Christmas
- ….. (complete the list for yourself)
Jesus says: do not judge, abide in My Love and preach the Gospel!
Paul who knew everything, said after his conversion:
“I do not know anything, except Jesus Christ, and Him crucified!”
Tell the people about Jesus, His sacrifice, His blood ! There lies our blessing!
Let everyone of us get closer to Him and then do what is being asked of you:
Repent and be baptized! And He will forge you just like that spearhead, He will make you hard as steel so as to function according to your calling and assignment in His great army!
Jeremiah 10:1-16
DON’T LEARN THE WAYS OF THE NATIONS!10
1 Hear the word which Yahweh speaks to you, house of Israel! 2 Thus says Yahweh, “Don’t learn the way of the nations, and don’t be dismayed at the signs of the sky; for the nations are dismayed at them. 3 For the customs of the peoples are vanity; for one cuts a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman with the axe. 4 They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it not move. 5 They are like a palm tree, of turned work, and don’t speak: they must be carried, because they can’t go. Don’t be afraid of them; for they can’t do evil, neither is it in them to do good.” 6 There is none like you, Yahweh; you are great, and your name is great in might. 7 Who should not fear you, King of the nations? for to you does it appertain; because among all the wise men of the nations, and in all their royal estate, there is none like you. 8 But they are together brutish and foolish: the instruction of idols! it is but a stock. 9 There is silver beaten into plates, which is brought from Tarshish, and gold from Uphaz, the work of the artificer and of the hands of the goldsmith; blue and purple for their clothing; they are all the work of skillful men. 10 But Yahweh is the true God; he is the living God, and an everlasting King: at his wrath the earth trembles, and the nations are not able to abide his indignation. 11 Thus shall you say to them, The gods that have not made the heavens and the earth, these shall perish from the earth, and from under the heavens. 12 He has made the earth by his power, he has established the world by his wisdom, and by his understanding has he stretched out the heavens: 13 when he utters his voice, there is a tumult of waters in the heavens, and he causes the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth; he makes lightnings for the rain, and brings forth the wind out of his treasuries. 14 Every man is become brutish and is without knowledge; every goldsmith is disappointed by his engraved image; for his molten image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them. 15 They are vanity, a work of delusion: in the time of their visitation they shall perish. 16 The portion of Jacob is not like these; for he is the former of all things; and Israel is the tribe of his inheritance: Yahweh of Armies is his name

THE BLOOD OF JESUS (YESHUA)
The Blood Of Yeshua (Word 2005)
Catharina Schouten
* 1
The blood of Jesus:
- atones
- cleanses us
- sanctifies (redeems) us
- conquered satan then and now
- makes us one with the Father
- empowers us
Many people do want to repent and ask Jesus to come into their life, but they do not allow the blood of Jesus to cleanse and redeem them.
There is and there won’t be unity apart from Him and apart from His blood. Likewise you cannot have your soul come ‘home’ without the blood!
If we go on pointing our fingers at the other, if we keep saying and/or thinking ‘It’s because of him or her that I am in this situation’, ‘The others have done wrong’, ‘I am just a victim. It’s not my fault.’, ‘You Lord, You have…..’ et cetera
If we think we can turn back to God by this mode of thinking, then we will remain under a veil of EVIL…..
This ‘pointing’ already commenced with Adam, who said to the Lord, after Eve had eaten of the apple:
“YOU have given me this woman! “
Eve, on her turn, said: “The serpent has deceived me”….
Basically Adam blamed both the Lord and Eve. Eve shifted the blame to the serpent….
They both pointed away from themselves……and did not assume the responsibility for their deeds!!!!!
We’re all born under this curse of the Fall of man, the root of which is PRIDE!
Each one of us has to go to God for themselves, with his/her own self, to be cleansed and redeemed him/herself…..by the Blood! The precious Blood of Jesus!
Not out of a victim attitude……Not out of an attitude that keeps pointing at the other……
LORD, I AM SINFUL!!!!!!!
He redeemed YOU! That’s why the Lord’s Prayer says: deliver US from evil …….
The cleansing operation of the Blood of Jesus continues day and night, 24/7…..It is the Blood that bought us and paid for our sins!
He, Jesus Christ, Yeshua, reconciles us with the Lord, with the Father!
But out of our own free will, WE must admit that we OURSELVES are sinful…..
Whether we are victim or perpetrator, EACH AND EVERY ONE OF US is SINFUL and an enemy of GOD, APART FROM the Blood of Jesus!
It is He who has bought us free by paying for our sins!
Give HIM your sins, submit yourself to Him, totally, so that HE by His Spirit can lead you and point out your sins to you in a tender, loving way…..
Then repent of the sins He revealed to you, confess them aloud to Him. By so doing you literally bring your sins into the light!
Satan is the king of darkness, Jesus is the King of the Light!
A sin repented of, a sin brought into the light, is a sin forgiven! Satan does not have might or power over it anymore……
But so long as we confess our sins out of an attitude of victimization and the pointing of the finger at someone else and/or the circumstances…so long will the cleansing be covered by a veil of deception……
In order to become completely free, to really still and quiet your soul, you will have to go through the eye of the needle!!!!
The entrance to the full truth, to the heart of the Father is so narrow, so small that you have to drop and release EVERYTHING in order to be able to go in…….Only YOU has to go through, you, together with YOUR responsibility to ADMIT who YOU are without GOD!
Right there, on that spot follows the “remorseful repentance”, the awareness deep down within of how deeply sinful you are, the knowing that YOU are the one who has to be cleansed by and in HIS BLOOD!!!!
Jesus is the Conciliator of our sins!
You have to admit YOUR sins. Then and only then will the secret of Jesus’ words reveal itself:
To whom much is forgiven, the same loveth much!
In other words : If we ourselves come to the acknowledgment of our OWN state of being
(Who you are WITHOUT God, without the Holy Spirit) ……then it’s not that difficult anymore to forgive the other!
COME TO ME!!! JUST YOU & ME!!!!
Nothing else, no one else but JESUS CHRIST! Only BY HIS BLOOD!
Surrender yourself!
* 2 For what the Lord has finished at the cross must be fulfilled in OUR hearts.
Amen!

Bible:
Luke 7: 47
47 So I tell you that all her sins are forgiven, and that is why she has shown great love. But anyone who has been forgiven for only a little will show only a little love.”
Genesis 3
12 “It was the woman you put here with me,” the man said. “She gave me some of the fruit, and I ate it.”
The Lord God then asked the woman, “What have you done?”
“The snake tricked me,” she answered. “And I ate some of that fruit.”
John 6: 53 Jesus answered:
I tell you for certain that you won’t live unless you eat the flesh and drink the blood of the Son of Man. 54 But if you do eat my flesh and drink my blood, you will have eternal life, and I will raise you to life on the last day. 55 My flesh is the true food, and my blood is the true drink. 56 If you eat my flesh and drink my blood, you are one with me, and I am one with you.
Hebrews 10: 19 My friends, the blood of Jesus gives us courage to enter the most holy place 20 by a new way that leads to life! And this way takes us through the curtain that is Christ himself.
Romans 2: 5 But you are stubborn and refuse to turn to God. So you are making things even worse for yourselves on that day when he will show how angry he is and will judge the world with fairness. 6 God will reward each of us for what we have done.
How strong the enmity is between our flesh and the Blood of Jesus is proven by the fact that the Lord once sought to kill Moses!!!!!
Exodus 4: 24
Circumcision of the foreskin then, is for us here and now, circumcision of the heart!– being born of the Spirit! ….. The New Testament,/ the New Covenant: Through THE BLOOD of JESUS!!!!
Please read the whole passage in your Bible:
24 One night while Moses was in camp, the Lord was about to kill him. 25 But Zipporah o 4.25 Zipporah: The wife of Moses (see 2.16-21).circumcised her son with a flint knife. She touched his p 4.25 his: Either Moses or the boy. legs with the skin she had cut off and said, “My dear son, this blood will protect you.” q 4.25 My dear son … you: Or “My dear husband, you are a man of blood” (meaning Moses).26 So the Lord did not harm Moses. Then Zipporah said, “Yes, my dear, you are safe because of this circumcision.”

A SPIRIT OF HUMILIATION
A Spirit of Humiliation
Catharina Schouten
Word out of 2005 and rewritten in 2010
I am almost for 20 years His child now and I remember how people in the beginning of my walk with Abba once told me, Catharina you have sometimes a behavior that is not from the Lord! I could be very angry, and begin to talk very loud and fast so no one could interrupt me!
So back then I asked the Lord: “Father please tell me what is going on? I want to be pure and holy”
Almost immediately I was back in the past, when I was a young girl, a child… Experiences came back, where I was humiliated at school and other occasions. The puzzle felt on his place!
Not only my own experiences came back, also the stories of the people which I have prayed with for deliverance came in my mind… Many of them faced humiliation also after they converted and went to a congregation.
Especially the women whose children where accused and humiliated in congregations suffered great pains, and it seems impossible to forgive! We can read in the Bible that those who humble themselves, the Lord will give them honor!
People who have been humiliated very often have friendships that almost come to a point of a type of ‘soul connection.’ or they cannot take care of friendships, because from both sides is a kind of fear of being humiliated again, what will stand between the friendship. Or they kept their distance after one of their humiliating experiences, and stay alone without having any friendship or relationship…
Or they just grew into a deeper relationship with each other–almost to the point of crawling inside the other’s skin….
When we become infected [saturated, or infused] with a spirit of humiliation–because you were humiliated when situations brought you down–self-protectionism will tend to reveal itself in you and show in your actions and countenance.
Have you begun to act arrogant or disdainful? Or do you begin to show a very humble attitude and, as we would say in Dutch: “I lick your heels”–trying extremely hard to act very nice–perhaps out of soul force in Watchman Nee terms–instead of out of a natural-supernatural outflow of Christ’s humility born of His Spirit flowing out of you?
Someone not so long ago prayed off a ‘spirit of humiliation’ from someone else. This may be a key necessity.
And the **vision of the ‘octopus’ that Johan Landman saw also has to do with this . . .
To insult someone (to eject someone from fellowship or intimacy that was rightfully theirs, reject someone) making them blind, keeping someone blind . . .
The result may be falling into those tentacles that will strangle you, destroy you . . .
I REALIZED that we must break this spirit of humiliation!
We must break this spirit from over ourselves and from over each other! AND, THEN, WE MUST FORGIVE OURSELVES AND FORGIVE EACH OTHER!
QUOTE: THE ISRAELITES CAME OUT of Egypt but Egypt had to leave, also, out of Them !
We are sons and daughters of the MOST HIGH! We are HIS HEIRS ”CHILDREN”
Every time I began to talk fast, talk long such that the other person couldn’t begin to reply or comment–I felt deep inside of me, the FEAR . . . to be accused again, to be humiliated.
And the root: The utter abject FEAR of being rejected–FROM THE FATHER–who might say: “YOU HAVE BEEN BEHAVING WRONGLY and YOU HAVE FAILED!
WHAT TERROR SUCH A PROSPECT BRINGS!
QUOTE: the Father tells you, ”Very deep down inside of you , you still don’t believe in My UNCONDITIONAL LOVE !
The Father healed me from all of this and He can do the same for you!
If we have had deep humiliation or rejection, or in our childhood not have learned to bind to a fathers or mothers heart and not know how to trust or to be stable, (sickness or the death of a mother can bring you to situations that many times you where raised up by somebody else and maybe you will inherently fear that this person will leave again). Then through the years we will act like; I call it: ”don’t give it water ”behavior.
FOR EXAMPLE:
On your birthday you will get a beautiful plant, … it starts blooming you give it A small amount of fertilizer, the right type and mixture, . . . you know how to cut, and when to water it……………….but after 3 weeks the plant died! You’ve done so well, but after all it `s gone! At the next birthday party, you will happen to get the same plant. And, although you’re taking good care of it, this plant also dies
When this occasion happens too many times, with the plants you get, you might say “I put him on the window shelf and I will NOT water him, because it will die after all, no matter what I do!
The Father is busy to weave a pattern for His Army, His Bride! Unity in and through His Spirit!
We have to acknowledge that NO ONE went through life without pain……… Evil Spirits, Evil Powers are going to be broken at this very moment This last week someone told me:
In the (traditional) church the eyes for DELIVERANCE are going to open! BEAUTIFUL!
But now we must break this spirit of humiliation (also from each other) Break it, and FORGIVE each other!
Also, forgive YOURSELF . . . AND . . . UNEMPOWER, REMOVE, CUT OFF– THROUGH PRAYER REPENT OF SUCH AND RENDER SUCH NEGATIVE WORDS NULL AND VOID, NEUTRALIZED, REMOVED. Deal with all the negative words you have spoken over yourself and each other! Pray until your attitude is changed from “the plant will die anyway, it will not work out” to:
THAT spirit IS BROKEN, GONE, REMOVED BY THE CROSS, THE BLOOD AND THE SPIRIT–GONE! AND (very important)
We must then put our trust in The Father because HE is the ONE who makes UNITY REAL. When it seems too difficult to impossible to do on our own, we must ask The Father to cut out all parts and residue of such a spirit and any related structures and habits and ASK HIM to enable and empower us TO TRUST HIM– that HE would place THE TRUST OF JESUS FOR THE FATHER WITHIN US–THAT HE WOULD WORK IT INTO THE FABRIC AND FIBER OF OUR BEING FROM THE SUBATOMIC PARTICLE LEVEL ON UP TO OUR WHOLE BODY, COUNTENANCE– OUR WHOLE BEING AND ALL OUR DOINGS.
Quote: This plant (UNITY) HE shall take care of it with fresh water from a soft and Spirit full of kindness, and He will plant it.
We are acceptable , all of us! You are valuable! You are not to be humiliated, and no one should humiliate you! I still remember, not so long ago, we had to break a spirit of; “We know everything we can almost act without HIS help” and a spirit of the Body that kept being on a level of “drinking milk” and this all happened in the spirit of the so called ministries and leadership! At that time, the Father already told me that these two thoughts (Spirits) had strengthened each other ! The Spirit that says we are already there , we know everything , acknowledged the spirit of that we need leaders to do everything for us, we can’t even pray by ourselves yet ….
While everyone who has being born again, has been conceived of the Holy Spirit. While we are one church! Someone has a word , the other has a vision, there are many gifts BUT all comes from one Spirit. There are Teachers, Shepherds, Apostles, Evangelists , and Prophets to direct and to give….. But still by SERVING ..
You can pray this prayer, but let it be led by Him:
I will humble myself, (Bow before YOU Father) You will raise me up! I don’t want to be humiliated or humiliate, (And I do not want to do that towards others,) not in the way of being despised , being accused, kept small, being cut out, etc…
I want to forgive everyone who has humiliated me Abba Father will You help me with this ….. Only through You, and in You we are able to forgive. I ask whosoever I have treated not well to forgive me, and may they also forgive me Father . Let Your blood come over me , and over us , to cleans us from this spirit! So that through anyone of us Your Spirit with his gifts will be seen !
AMEN!
Enoch means: Initiate or Insider
Enoch means: Initiate or Insider
Hebrews 11: 5
It was faith that kept Enoch from dying. Instead,
he was taken up to God, and nobody could find him, because God had taken him up. The Scripture says that before Enoch was taken up, he had pleased God.
21 When Enoch was 65, he had a son, Methuselah.
22 After that, Enoch lived in fellowship with God for 300 years and had other children.
23 He lived to be 365 years old.
He spent his life in fellowship with God,
and then he disappeared, because God took him away.
This past Saturday we spent some time together on the Sabbath, praying.
The Lord spoke to us, and made one thing very clear. People today are constantly talking about: SPENDING TIME WITH THE LORD!
So many of us are going to sit down and pray for a little while, with great expectations!
( Wanting to feel things, to FEEL anointing, warmth and so on)
Father spoke in my heart:
They want ME to DO something for them- to make them feel good,
give them what they want, and so on.
It is always STILL about THEM!
Now, I can testify to this personally. I’ve experienced it in my own life.
I also received emails these past few days with absolute confirmations of this very thing- if the Lord wants to touch you,
HE will come to you and do it, and not the other way around!
It is HIM who takes the first step, and He will not do it because you take “the seven steps” to come before His throne!
He is not a genie that we can summon to answer our bidding and grant our wishes, then put Him back on the shelf when we got what we wanted.
Let’s go even deeper. All this is not only about spending some time with Him, but ALL.
Enoch spent his life in fellowship with God!
Enoch means : initiate or insider!
It is all about walking with the Lord, being constantly in the Spirit!
It’s not something to do for only a few minutes a day, but a 24/7/365 lifestyle.
We don’t do this to feel good, or get things that make US happy…
It is about an INTIMATE RELATIONSHIP!
The Lord’s Supper literally involves taking the wine and the bread.
Spiritually speaking, it is talking with Him and listening to Him, so He can give us His:
Milk, Honey, Water, Bread. These are different gifts (anointing) that He will use in different situations!
You will receive HIS fire and His authority will reign!
We will receive our daily manna, to be strong every day!
When we have an intimate relationship with Him,
then He can knit us together with others who also have this relationship!
Picture a fish net! One strand will not catch as many fish as when many are woven together.
Together we will catch fish!
Corrine, who was with us at the Sabbath meeting, saw a vision of Jeu De Boules.
(the French “Game of Balls”)
For those of you who are not familiar with this game,
the goal is basically to throw your team’s balls in a way that strike and push the object ball toward the goal,
before your opponent can get the ball.
Each ball represents one of us. Sometimes we do things as a team to reach HIS goal!
We can only do so much on our own, but when others come and give us a push, we can FINALLY reach the goal!
So, allow Him to bring you higher!
Don’t spend just a little time with the Lord,
when it’s convenient for you, or come to Him because you want to FEEL or RECEIVE things,
but come to Him and walk with your lover entirely! Completely!
It is only then that He can move how He wants to move….freely without hindrance!
He gave me this Song today:
The wind, The wind, The wind,
Can you feel it, the warmth of it, the cool breeze?
The wind, the wind, the wind,
It is moving.
I AM moving.
Unhindered, without bouncing into walls, I can move!
May He bless you even more!
Now the Father gave me the command to share this message with you, but when we come together on sabbat he speaks to ALL of us!
Let me give you the names who received something/part of this word:
Enoch = initiate or insider! (Lenie)
The Lords Supper( Lenie) Fire ( Arend)
She saw a vision of a Purple color = authority ( Hanneke)
Manna ( Jaap)
Jeu De Boules ( Corrine)

Acts 3
19 So turn to God! Give up your sins, and you will be forgiven.
When I talked to the Lord tonight, He gave me a vision of a mask…..
A mask in Black and White
The Lord spoke into my heart:
“Many of My children are wearing masks!
And it seems that they do not realize that I can see
behind it!
I Am waiting for their confession!
Just confess your sin, that is all I ask of you!
My fire will burn all your sin away!
My fire is a consuming fire!
It will consume everything that is not out of Me!
But you need to tell me, what you are hiding.
Because of your masks you can not see.
They do not know who they are,
what they could be IN Me!
Their lies keep them away from Me
from the TRUTH!
I Am holy!
I Am the creator of heaven and earth!
I Am JHWH
I Am The Truth!
So walk in My truth, only then you will be free!”
1 John
God Is Light
5 Jesus told us that God is light and doesn’t have any darkness in him. Now we are telling you.
6 If we say that we share in life with God and keep on living in the dark, we are lying and are not living by the truth. 7 But if we live in the light, as God does, we share in life with each other. And the blood of his Son Jesus washes all our sins away. 8 If we say that we have not sinned, we are fooling ourselves, and the truth isn’t in our hearts. 9 But if we confess our sins to God, he can always be trusted to forgive us and take our sins away.
10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make God a liar, and his message isn’t in our hearts.
John 8
36 If the Son gives you freedom, you are free!
Titus 1
16 Such people claim to know God, but their actions prove that they really don’t. They are disgusting.
They won’t obey God, and they are too worthless to do anything good.
Isaiah 59
2 Your sins are the roadblock
between you and your God.
That’s why he doesn’t answer your prayers or let you see his face.
Now Adam and Eve blamed each other and finally they blamed the Lord
But they were the one’s who disobeyed Him!!
They did NOT confess their own sin!
The criminal hanging at the cross was aware of what he had done, and who Jesus was!
Luke 23
39 One of the criminals hanging there also insulted Jesus by saying, “Aren’t you the Messiah? Save yourself and save us!”
40 But the other criminal told the first one off, “Don’t you fear God? Aren’t you getting the same punishment as this man? 41 We got what was coming to us, but he didn’t do anything wrong.” 42 Then he said to Jesus, “Remember me when you come into power!” And see how Jesus replied!!!
43 Jesus replied, “I promise that today you will be with me in paradise.”
Isaiah 55
God’s Words Are Powerful
6 Turn to the Lord!
He can still be found.
Call out to God! He is near.
7 Give up your crooked ways and your evil thoughts.
Return to the Lord our God.
He will be merciful and forgive your sins.
I hope this message will bless you!

I Am The Way The Truth And The Life
I Am The Way The Truth And The Life ( placed at the ETPV site 2005)
Catharina Schouten
After I searched for the Lord and spent some time worshipping, and some time in silence, with Him, I tried to get some sleep.
But as soon as I closed my eyes I saw short visions. I thought if this is from the Father, I will remember it tomorrow and write it down, but I could not get peace in my heart. Lights on and lights out trying to sleep. Something deep within my spirit, a deep ringing inside told me to get up and write it down.
And there came a point, that I felt in my heart I must come out of my bed, and I must write it now.
Visions:
Mountain: The mountain can be a “mountain of trouble”, adultery, etc.
It should be a Mountain of the Lord to come meet Your Lord.
I saw a mountain, it was a Mountain built of keys. Next, I saw people running back and forth and throwing their keys on the mountain.
After the vision, I saw raindrops falling down on a stone. And the last vision was a vision of a sunflower.
Interpretation of the visions:
The keys represent: your own steps to receive something. The keys reveal our own systems, self made formulas our own steps to our solutions,
but is must be: I Am The Way!
My Key to open My Kingdom, the Father said.
The keys represent our own systems our own steps. Who must lead to solutions?
It must be I, I Am the Key.
The Mountain of Keys represents gold calves, keys to our own way to minister healing, deliverance, etc.
It is not your seven steps this is wrong because
Yeshua Is The Key!
Raindrops:
The raindrops falling on the stone represent: if we take those keys to healing, delivering, steps to our way of thinking how it should be done, we take them as our truths and take them above Yeshua. Constant water running over time on a rock, can cut like a knife if it goes on long enough.
Taking keys over Yeshua means that these little drops become our belief in these keys/ formulas and they will wearing down, cutting our faith in Yeshua.
We are taking these keys over and over again filling our heart with them, and not with Yeshua.
It is also standing for the opposite, His living water is falling on a heart of stone.
The same vision:
His living water falling down on a heart of stone, because we closed our heart to Him, but opened our heart to the keys.
He is trying to pull out the Living Water out of us, but we closed our heart for HIS simple truth! We opened our hearts to fake solutions. So, more and more, we walk further away from our
position as a simple child of God, further and further away from His hand, away from the simple trust as a simple child.
When we return to Him, Yeshua, and repenting, ( teshuva = return repent) the Living Water will be our everything, our all and all.
I Can Be Your All and All, In All your difficulties.
Likewise, raindrops falling down on the stone, so shall it be with our faith in Him making tremendous changes in us.
Like a stone wears out through the falling of drops, so shall our hearts change from a heart of stone coming into a heart of fire for Him.
and we will change into children who simply trust Him.
Example of a heart of stone: People who try to find all peace in their ways, they think they have all the wisdom and truth within themselves without Yeshua, but instead we must be like children.
Interpretation of the Sunflower: victory will shine like the sun with healing in its rays
Malachi 4: 1 – 6 The Day of Judgment
4 The Lord said:
1 The day of judgment is certain to come. And it will be like a red-hot furnace with flames that burn up proud and sinful people, as though they were straw. Not a branch or a root will be left. I, the Lord All-Powerful, have spoken! 2 But for you that honor my name, victory will shine like the sun with healing in its rays, and you will jump around like calves at play. 3 When I come to bring justice, you will trample those who are evil, as though they were ashes under your feet. I, the Lord All-Powerful, have spoken!
The Word of the Lord:
“Return, return to Me! Because even your own systems, your own statements become like golden calves if you place them above Me.
I will give you peace for your souls. Am I not a Father who wants the best for His Children?**
Don’t I say Myself, My Yoke is easy and My Burden is light? All of the Law and the law of the Prophets is about one thing, LOVE.
First of all, love Me, listen to My voice, come before My throne in worship and I will make it.
My Bride, you will be like cows coming out of the stable and I will send you.
I will be The Truth.”
**The interpretation of children, children and babes, we can take this literally, but spiritually meaning we must be as little children.
Simply believe! Mark 10:15
Mattew 11: 30
This yoke is easy to bear, and this burden is light.
Mattew 7: 12
Treat others as you want them to treat you. This is what the Law and the Prophets.
Mattew 21: 15 Jesus in the Temple
15 But the chief priests and the teachers of the Law of Moses were angry when they saw his miracles and heard the children shouting praises to the Son of David.
The men said to Jesus, “Don’t you hear what those children are saying?”
“Yes, I do!” Jesus answered. “Don’t you know that the Scriptures say, ‘Children and infants will sing praises’?” 17 Then Jesus left the city and went out to the village of Bethany, where he spent the night.
Mark 10: 15
14 When Jesus saw this, he became angry and said, “Let the children come to me! Don’t try to stop them. People who are like these little children belong to the kingdom of God.

JUST SOME THOUGHTS TO PONDER ABOUT
LET US PRAY 4 EACH OTHER IN UNITY. IT IS HIS SABBATH A SET APART DAY FOR ALL GENERATIONS. PEOPLE WILL RECOGNIZE A SET APART HOLY PEOPLE AND IF WE UNITED THE WORLD WILL RECOGNIZE HIM!
WARM SHALOM FROM THE NETHERLANDS!
THUS SAITH THE LORD: “WHEN I CALL SOMEBODY AS APOSTLE/PROPHET(ESS) HE OR SEE IS REAL/PURE! BUT THE WORD THEY NEED TO SPEAK AND WHAT WILL KILL THE FLESH IS SOMETIMES SO HARD TO BEAR, THAT THE RECEIVER WILL ACCUSE THE INSTRUMENT I CHOOSE FOR BEING FALSE”
FAITH IS TRUST….TRUSTING AS A CHILD IN OUR DADDY! TRUST IN HIS WAYS AND HIS PLAN NOT IN OUR OWN WAYS AND OWN PLANS….EXCEPTING HIM AS THE RULER OF YOUR LIFE! I DO NOT CLAIM….I WAITH FOR HIS RHEMAWORD AND THEN I TRUST REST AND TRUST AND OBEY IN WHAT HE ASKS!
THE MORE PEOPLE SAY YOU ARE A NOTHING A NOBODY OR…YOUR MINISTRY DOES NOT WORK, THE MORE THEY GOSSIP ( AND HE LET`S ME KNOW IT) ….THE MORE HE GIVES ME HIS LOVE 4 THEM AND THE MORE HE SHOWS ME HIS LOVE 4 ME! GGGGGGGLLLLOOOORRRYYYYYYYYY!!!
CURIOUSITY KILLS THE CAT…..JEALOUSI SLANDER AND GOSSIP KILLS HIS BRIDE!
IT IS ALL ABOUT HIM: DESERT PERIODS : PRUNING AND CLEANSING GETSEMANE PRUNING OF OLIVES PRESSURE ON YOUR LIFE TO REMOVE THE FLESH! GOLGOTAH FINALL END TO SELF….CRUSIFIED LIFE HE HE HE THAT`S IT!
WE LOVE YESHUA HOW WE LIKE HIM TO SEE AND THAT IS WITH LONG HAIR AND CHILDREN ON HIS LAP….LOVE HE IS LOVE WE SAY, WE DO NOT LIKE TO THINK ABOUT YESHUA WHO WAS CLEANSING THE TEMPLE….BELIEVE IT OR NOT HE CALLED IT LOVE!
HOW OFTEN THE LORD GIVES YOU A WORD THROUGH THE VESSELS HE USES, AND YOU LISTEN, AND YOU SAY AMEN, BUT YOU DO NOT ACT UPON IT! AND THEN WHEN THINGS GO WRONG THE VESSEL THE 5 FOLD MINISTER IS THE ONE WHO IS FALSE AND THE ONE WHO DID NOT HELP YOU..REPENT AND OBEY YOUR FATHER! IF HE TELLS YOU HE WANTS YOU TO REST AND SIT AT HIS FEET DO IT!
PROPHETIC WORD CONCERNING ISRAEL
TWICE NOW I COULD NOT CATCH MY BREATH! THE 1ST TIME IT HAPPENED ( SOME WEEKS AGO) THE LORD MADE IT CLEAR IT IS PROPHETICLY! ISRAEL IS IN DEEP TROUBLE. THE SECOND
TIME WAS JUST A VIEW MINUTES BACK. OUT OF THE BLUE I FELT LIKE CHOOKING!
THE LORD TOLD ME:
IT WILL SEEM THAT ISRAEL WILL GET HELP BUT IT IS A FALSE THING! I AM WAITING SAYS THE LORD, I AM WAITING FOR MY PEOPLE TO CRY OUT TO ME! EVENTHOUGH THEY DO NOT RECOGNIZE ME AS THE SON AS THEIR JEWISH MESSIAH THEY CAN CRY OUT FOR ME.
THEY CAN NOT HIDE THEIR ROOTS. THEY CAN NOT HIDE FROM ME. I AM IS STILL THERE I LOVE MY PEOPLE BUT THEY MUST EXPECT IT FROM ME! I WILL SHOW THE WORLD THAT I AM DOES NOT SLUMBER AND DOES NOT SLEEP.
PRAY PRAY PRAY AND LISTEN TO ME SO YOU CAN PRAY PROPHETICLY!
I ALSO WARN THOSE WHO LOVE MY LAND IN A ROMANTIC WAY! AS SOON AS IT CAN COST YOU YOUR LIFE, YOU WONT SUPPORT MY LAND AND MY PEOPLE, SAITH THE LORD!
SO RETURN TO ME WITH ALL YOU HAVE AND ALL THAT YOU ARE BEFORE YOU PRAY FOR MY LAND AND MY PEOPLE! I NEED THE PURE OF HEART WHO CAN BE MY VOICE! I WILL HONOR THEIR PRAYERS CAUSE THEY ONLY REPEAT WHAT I AM SAYING AND MY WORD WILL NOT COME BACK IN VAIN! COMFORT MY PEOPLE NOT WITH YOUR OWN FIRE IT IS PROFANE FIRE IN MY EYES SAITH THE LORD!
COME TO ME AND I WILL CIRCUMCIZE YOUR HEART ( DEEPER OR EVEN FOR THE SECOND TIME) THEN I CAN SPEAK THROUGH YOUR MOUTH AND YOU CAN TRULY BE A WATCHMAN ON THE WALLS! I NEED YOU MY PEOPLE NEED YOU MY LAND NEEDS YOU SAITH THE LORD
ZO SPREEKT DE HEER:
KIJK NIET ZO VAAK NAAR ANDEREN MIJN KIND.
IK HEB JE MET ZOVEEL VREUGDE GEMAAKT! IK SPREEK WOORDEN VAN LIEFDE OVER JE, EN KLEUREN HEEL VEEL KLEUREN. IK ZAL JE TONEN WAT IK JOU HEB GEGEVEN OM TE STRALEN EN MIJN LICHT VAN EEUWIGDURENDE LIEFDE VOOR JOU TE LATEN SCHIJNEN. KLEINE GRIJZE MUS, JE GAAT EEN PRACHTIG LIEDJE FLUITEN! DE WERELD WEES JE AF EN MIJN KINDEREN WEZEN JE AF. MAAR IK GEEF JE PROMOTIE JIJ BENT DE MIJNE!
THUS SAITH THE LORD:
THUS SAITH THE LORD: “LITTLE GRAY BIRD, YOU ARE MY CHILD…DON`T FEEL LIKE THAT! DO NOT LOOK SO OFTEN TO OTHERS MY CHILD.
I CREATED YOU WITH SUCH JOY! I SPEAK WORDS OF LOVE OVER YOU AND COLLORS MANY COLLORS!
I WILL SHOW YOU WHAT I HAVE GIVEN YOU TO SHINE AND GLOW WITH MY EVERLASTING LOVE FOR YOU!
LITTLE GRAY BIRD YOU ARE GOING TO WHISTLE A BEAUTIFULL SONG!
THE WORLD REJECTED YOU THE OTHER CHILDREN REJECTED YOU BUT I PROMOTE YOU YOU ARE MINE!”……
