By Evangelist Barbara Lynch

Take My hand tightly and do not let go, for lessons are being taught and not many are learning. I am seated on My throne, and I am high and lifted up, and My train fills the temple. The enemy shall not prevail in the lives of those who are teachable.

I have forewarned My people of this coming warfare, but they are not listening. They still think they know more than I do. They still think My grace will cover them. Yes, My grace is sufficient, but they have worn out My grace in their lives.

I have come by this day to say to you that enough is enough, and I have now moved on to those who will hear My voice and obey. They say with their lips that they love Me and will follow Me, but their heart does not line up with their lips. Gross darkness is surely covering the earth. I told you in the past, I tell you again, I will protect those who are Mine. Those who spoke with their lips, and not with their heart are standing alone.

Take My hand, follow Me, and never look back.

Luke 9:62 (NKJV)
62 But Jesus said to him, “No one, having put his hand to the plow, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.”

Jesus uses an agricultural illustration to teach the vital importance of staying focused, persistent and faithful. “No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back is fit for service in the kingdom of God” (Luke 9:62). The Apostle Paul seems to share this same concept in Philippians 3:13: “Brethren, I do not regard myself as having laid hold of it yet; but one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead.”

Isaiah 6:1 In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord seated on a throne, high and exalted; and the train of His robe filled the temple.

Proverbs 26:12 (NKJV) 12 Do you see a man wise in his own eyes? There is more hope for a fool than for him.

2 Corinthians 12:9 (NKJV) – And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

Psalm 21:11 (NLT)
11 Although they plot against you, their evil schemes will never succeed.
