What is the Bride of Christ? The Bride is made up of the born-again, Spirit-filled Christians, the holy sanctified Church that makes up the body of Christ. Leaving the world behind, the bridal company has put Christ and His will foremost in their lives.

God gave me a divine revelation on the blood-love shield for the Bride in this her final walk. The Bride will accept every word, every promise of God. In many ways she will use all the promises of God to help bring in the harvest of souls in this final hour. She will use the promises of good health to receive health; she will use the promises of deliverance to be free from all depression, fear and frustration. She will live in the Word, the Holy Word of God, and the truth.

But thou, O Lord, art a shield for me (Psalm 3:3). Again and again the Bride will say those words. Dear Jesus, you are a shield to me, my protection, my defender, my guard! You are my life! The Lord is our shield, our salvation, our high tower, our refuge, our Savior. He saves us from violence, protects us from danger. Jesus said, And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed (John 8:32,36). The Bride will walk in “indeed” freedom.

What Makes Up the Shield of Divine Blood?

Proverbs 30:5, Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him. Notice the word shield. The Lord wants you to think on His shield of divine blood love. Study the shield, find out if you have it. When you know you have the shield, you know you have protection.

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life (John 3:16). For God so loved the world that He gave us a love shield: Jesus is our blood-love shield.

A shield defends, protects, guards. Any person or thing that guards can be a shield. This shield of the Lord protects, guards and defends us marvelously.

A shield can be a movable canopy. Twice I have seen a canopy of protection over multitudes of people in foreign crusades: once in Nigeria, and once in Malawi. It was the love canopy for the Bride in this her last hour, saith the Lord. In that love is everything we need; the invisible shield of the blood-love covers it all. The devil cannot penetrate that shield, cannot tear through it. He tries to tempt you to get outside the shield, for only when you are outside can he affect you. If the devil can succeed in making you give in to anger, doubt, fear, frustration—any destructive thought, emotion or action—he has you out from under the protection of the blood-love shield.

A shield is meant to protect from injury, danger or loss; to guard, defend a person or thing that it protects, to make one safe when traveling. You want your journey in this life to be safe in every way. The blood-love shield is your defender. How wonderful to think that you are defended by the love of God!

A shield is a passport, insurance. Heaven’s love is your insurance company. God gave Jesus so your soul could be insured for all eternity. When you die in the Lord, your eternal benefits will be pure joy, bliss, and happiness. Study the benefits of your insurance policy through Jesus Christ. The love shield is yours, the shield that protects you for time and all eternity.

Jesus is the protector, the one to guard and look out for you. Not only is the blood-love shield protecting, it is serving. The love of God serves the greatness of Heaven to you. You don’t have to worry, to be troubled or in despair when God serves you His greatness. No wonder the Lord said to bring all your burdens to Him! Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls (Matthew 11:28,29).

Shields come in many forms. Some are made of brass, wood, plated gold. Three pounds of beaten gold went into each of the 300 shields that Solomon had made.

In the Scripture God is often called the shield of His people. Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him (Proverbs 30:5). Genesis 15:1, I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward. Psalm 5:12, For thou, Lord, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.

In Ephesians 6:16, faith is called a shield, but that shield of faith is one you yourself must hold up: Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. Faith is a shield, but love must be used with that faith for the Word of God to work for you. Through love, faith operates the Word, faith which worketh by love (Galatians 5:6). You who are born again have God’s love all the time awake or asleep. You have it. That love gives you the strength, the power, the knowledge, and wisdom to use all the armor of the Lord. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand (Ephesians 6:13).

God Gave All His Love on Calvary

Love gives you the wisdom to use faith, when to use it and how it must be used. Remember, love is the greatest thing God has. And now abideth faith, hope, charity [love], these three; but the greatest of these is charity [love] (I Corinthians 13:13). God is love (I John 4:8). God gave mankind the greatest love He had when He gave Jesus; He gave all His love at Calvary, holding back none. For all eternity no love will be withheld from the Bride. Always the Bride will be special to God the Father, to the Son and to the Holy Ghost.

The Blood-Love Shield Brings Victory

Down through the years, man has known different kinds of love; but not all of it has been lasting, just as some of the Old Testament battle shields in the past have not been very strong, did not last very long.

Shields were hung on towers for ornaments, used as trophies commemorating victory. The tower of David was builded for an armoury, whereon there hang a thousand bucklers, all shields of mighty men (Song of Solomon 4:4). Those shields on the tower of David represented his strength, but our strength is in the blood-love shield, Christ Jesus.

The Lord gives us wonderful promises; only through love are they given and only through love can they be fulfilled. When the love of God floods the soul, there is no room for anything else; the love of God destroys all doubt, all fear. There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love (I John 4:18).

Doubting your Maker, doubting the one who gives the promises means you are not perfect in His love. If love is working in perfection in your mind, you do not doubt God. Love in perfection can be in your soul, but in order for that love to be flowed into your mind, you must yield to the Holy Spirit. As the Holy Spirit flows His love from your soul into your mind, doubt leaves. You can have God’s love in your soul, however, and still doubt God in your mind when you close your mind to that flow.

As a child of God you have the love of God in your heart, the ultimate love that was given through Calvary. If you have met the Lord at Calvary for your sins, been forgiven, you have taken Him into your heart; the ultimate supreme love of Almighty God is in your soul. The soul of a child of God, is covered with the blood. When you are born new, you have the eternal blood-love on the inside, saith the Lord. His love is stronger than any power of the devil. God’s blood-love shield is stronger than any fear, despair, oppression, depression. His blood love will flow out of your mind that which is unpleasant to you, to God and to the Holy Spirit.

Depend on the reservoir of love in your soul; be yielded to the Holy Ghost at all times so He can flow that love. But if you set your mind on something other than love, the devil can get your attention off the love of God and onto what people say, onto their distress, their doubt, their objections, despairs and fears. You are robbed. You can’t afford to leave the canopy of the blood-love shield that protects you on every side.

An Ark with Three Stories

The Noah family had God’s shield in the form of the ark. That three-storied ark represented God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Ghost. Shielded from the storm no matter how ferociously it raged outside, the Noah family had protection, the insurance of God’s promises, everything they needed even though they couldn’t go outside the ark for over one year. Inside the ark was great keeping power and it was in action through love. Noah and his family had to have the love of God in their hearts in the first place to follow God’s instructions about building the ark. One hundred twenty years were spent building it. In love they worked all those years, waiting for the time the ark would be their salvation. In God’s love is all the patience you need.

After the flood subsided and the Noah family was once again on dry land, God gave them another insurance promise, the rainbow of love in the sky.

But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint (Isaiah 40:31). Wait upon the Lord; mount up with wings of love, wings of grace. The eagle mounts up in the power of the wind, but we mount up in the strength of God’s pure love. In that love, Jesus came with healing in his wings (Malachi 4:2). Ponder the love of God that offers divine healing, love that will help you mount up out of any valley. Rejoice that you are greatly loved! One day, Child of God, you will mount up and not stop until you get to Glory. On wings of love, the Holy Spirit will carry you up to meet the Groom in the air, to meet loved ones who have gone on before. How wonderful it will be!

God Shielded Abraham

Genesis 15:1, The word of the Lord came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward. God shielded Abraham in great love, told him to move away from his kinfolk. God couldn’t shield Abraham the way He wanted when Abraham was living with his kin. They were an aggravation, a worry, a hindrance.

People can’t always move away from relatives who fight the work of God, but if they can, they should. If God says to get away, then get away. Some people, however, won’t move even though the Lord has told them to move. Abraham moved; he obeyed God. Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness (Romans 4:3).

Abraham had a great love for God; that’s the reason he had faith to put Isaac on the altar of sacrifice. No father had a greater love for his son than Abraham had for Isaac, I’m sure. He had waited twenty-five years after the promise of a son was given for that promise to be fulfilled. But Abraham had so much love for God he knew that if his son were killed, God would raise him up. How could he know that? He knew because God had promised him descendants as numerous as the sands of the sea. By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son, Of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called: Accounting that God was able to raise him up, even from the dead (Hebrews 11:17-19). The love Abraham had for God was pure, love with no doubt.

Because we don’t use enough love when we look on the promises of God, we doubt. All too often we don’t carry that love in our minds, and because the mind isn’t functioning with God’s love, it functions with weakness through questionable decisions.

People can come between us and the love of God. Discouraged, disgruntled, they say things against the work of God, pour doubt on God’s promises, on His love. Anything the devil can use to get your mind off the love of God, to separate you from God’s will, he will use.

Touch Heaven with God’s Love

Only through God’s love can your mind reach out to God. God’s arm of love is so far-reaching that you can be on Earth and still touch the throne of grace. Divine love reaches all the way from Earth to Heaven, and that divine love, I say again, is in the souls of all who are born new in Jesus Christ. This is what the Bride will be conscious of, saith the Lord.

Each time the Bride comes into His presence she will be conscious of the fact, I can touch Heaven with God’s love. I have it. I am in touch with the throne of God at all times. I can reach up and touch the flow of the river of life. Conscious of her direct contact and her closeness to Heaven in this her final walk, the Bride will be a power for God, doing much for the Lord.

God so loved the world that He gave Jesus, and now He so loves the Bride that He will give everything including Jesus to help the Bride bring in His harvest in this last and final hour. It’s true we have a huge task ahead of us; it’s true we have many battles ahead; it’s true danger will be there, but we have the blood-love shield of God. Who can dethrone God? Not the devil and all his kingdom, no one. God will always have the throne, always be supreme.

Your shield is as strong as God because God is your shield. You don’t need to depend on shields of wood, brass or gold; you have a shield of love, saith the Lord. That love is stronger than any metal, stronger than steel cable, stronger than all the powers on planet Earth. You have that strength in your soul, saith the Lord. Recognize that strength, and you won’t be weak. No wonder the Bible says to let the weak say, I am strong (Joel 3:10). For when I am weak, then am I strong (II Corinthians 12:10).

The love of God in your soul means the strength of God is in your soul, too. With the love of God in your soul, you have the power of God in your soul, the wisdom, knowledge, all His promises. You are strong through God’s love.

Love Served by the Holy Spirit

It is essential for each person to have an individual baptism of the Holy Spirit so He can flow the greatness of God in the soul to the mind. The human spirit can’t handle that kind of love, that kind of power: we need divinity to operate it. Although the gifts of the Holy Spirit are in my life, I can’t operate them; the Holy Spirit operates them. He operates them through my soul, my mind, my whole being. Under His anointing, every nerve, every muscle is charged by the Holy Spirit. Many times days pass before one anointing leaves me.

You, too, can have this charge of the power of God; it’s a beautiful experience, one that gives you supernatural strength to work for Him. It’s the power of God that gives me supernatural strength to help me put in the many, many hours that God requires of me. His power gives me the strength to wake at any time during the night when God wants to talk to me. Perhaps I have been asleep only five or ten minutes, but He wakes me and I am rested. God’s love flowing into my mind from the soul has wiped away that which would make me weary and tired in body.

The mind tires more quickly than the body if it has the wrong things to contend with. When the mind is overloaded, depression can move in. Only the love of God working so the Holy Spirit can use it at all times will keep you from being discouraged. People become discouraged when they turn away from the Holy Spirit to let self or someone else serve them. The Holy Spirit is waiting for you to turn to Him to serve you what is already in your soul.

When you don’t let the Holy Spirit serve you, the devil is able to deceive you, to make you doubt God’s love. Where is the love of God? you wonder. It’s in the reservoir of your soul, and you won’t let the Holy Spirit make God’s love a reality in your life. So the Holy Spirit is waiting on you to turn to Him.

Will water in the reservoir do you any good if you don’t drink of it? The water has to come out before you benefit from it, and it’s the same with the love of God in your soul. The love of God has to come into your mind, and the Holy Spirit is the only one who can send it from the soul into the mind as you yield to the Holy Spirit. You have to yield for that love to be sent to your mind, for you are the instrument that can accept or reject God’s love. You can have whatever you want flowing into you. You can have peace, joy, happiness flowing if that’s what you want. Jesus said, Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid (John 14:27). In other words, use His peace; He has given it to you.

Gossip Grieves the Holy Spirit

The love of God is in your heart to be flowed daily by the Holy Spirit to your mind so you won’t carry unnecessary burdens. Don’t take on burdens by listening to gossip; have a sanctified telephone in your home. Listen to that which is edifying in the Lord, for listening to gossip grieves the Holy Spirit, makes you as guilty as the one who is gossiping. The stench of gossip goes into your thoughts, into your spirit and creates battles of the mind.

As long as you want to listen to gossip, you are not serving love. If you are full of love, you want to hear the good things the love of God is doing for people. You want to know that love is working not only for you but for others, curing people of heartaches and troubles, taking hate out of people, not putting hate in. Why care what the devil is doing? You don’t want to know the results of anger, envy and strife. You want to know what love is doing, what Jesus is doing.

As a man, Jesus received the Holy Ghost when He was baptized. He knew how to yield so the Holy Spirit could flow God’s love to Him. Let the Holy Spirit flow God’s love to you.

The Bride will be strong; she will stand tall like Jesus. How many people do you think Jesus let gossip to Him? How much do you think He listened to idle talk? Jesus said, I am the way, the truth (John 14:6). You can’t change truth. If you are a part of Jesus you will guard your tongue, your ears and your mind. If refusing to listen to gossip makes someone angry, know you are not making the Lord angry, you aren’t grieving the Holy Spirit.

Think what the Holy Spirit has been through since Pentecost, the struggles He has had. The Lord has let me know that people grieve the Holy Spirit when they listen to words that are untrue, words against His work. One day the Rapture will take place, and the Holy Spirit will take His flight with the Bride. He will leave Earth to never be grieved again.

Let the Lord fill your cup with the goodness of Heaven to serve to others each day. But if you are fretting, worried, in doubt, you will serve those things. If you are in darkness, distress, you will serve that cup to someone during the day. That is not the way of the Lord. Serve the cup of love. Love is the greatest power, the power that heals, destroys sickness and unrighteousness. Love—the power that destroys weakness—gives all the strength needed. Why not serve love? Why serve anything else? Why repeat gossip that will hurt someone? Tune your ear to what Heaven is reporting.

We are on our way to take Jesus to the whole world, to bring His reality to the multitudes. The Lord is using everything He can of what we are sending forth. More and more the Lord is putting us on the airways so we can reach more and more people.

Yes, God is our shield. Why should we fear what man will do to us? Why should we worry about enemies we may have? Why should we worry about what someone might say about us? We are shielded in the ark, Jesus Christ, and they are outside in the storm pounding on the door. The door won’t open for the unrighteous; it’s a door sealed with love. Many missed their chance in the past, and the Lord closed the door. One day it will be like that for the whole civilization; God will close the door on all not in the ark Christ Jesus.

Live by Faith

Jesus is our love shield, and the Bride is sailing right on through the storms of life with Him. We have Him on the inside and we cry, All is well! In the blood-love shield, under the canopy of Jesus Christ, all is well. No matter how circumstances look, the just shall live by faith (Romans 1:17). To live by faith you must look through the mirror of God’s love to see His reflection in living reality for today and all your tomorrows. How wonderful to yield all to the Lord!

This is your message from God; this is the message the Lord has spent time giving to me for you. He let me know it was to be delivered directly to each individual to treasure, to love and to know He is giving it, not man. This is His revelation for you, bringing you into His greatness, His power. Don’t let anything contaminate you; don’t let self hinder you. Have no egotism about what the Lord is doing for you or about any revelation He gives you. Don’t be puffed up over the way the Lord uses you. Know that He is the one, the great I-Am who so loved you that He gave Jesus for you.

God Supplies Our Needs

We look at ourselves and know we are not worth such a sacrifice as was given on the Cross. Salvation is not offered us because we are worthy; God didn’t give Jesus for us because we deserved it; God gave Jesus because of His great love. Now that great love is ours, on board the ark Jesus. Inside Christ there is only room for the Christ love, the ark love, the ark deliverance.

I don’t believe there was one sick person on the ark during the whole time Noah and his family were on it. I don’t believe they had to take medicine on that ark with them or that they had any pains, any sickness. The Lord was with them. Every time they dipped out food from one barrel, the miracle power replaced it. Every time they fed the animals, the bins filled again through the same miracle power that filled the widow’s meal barrel in Elijah’s day, the widow whose barrel of meal wasted not, neither did the cruse of oil fail (I Kings 17:16).

The Lord is supplying our needs today; we take from one bin and it is filled again. We serve a cup of love and the cup is refilled. We serve another cup of love and the Holy Spirit fills it again. Quick, serve it! People are perishing for that love. You are the person to help them; you have the personality they will accept. The Lord is telling you to run with the cup of love—serve that cup of love! Rescue people, save them! There isn’t anything in the world like being a soul-winner. The Lord is anointing people to win souls.

The Lord Is Our Deliverer

Happy art thou, O Israel: who is like unto thee, O people saved by the Lord, the shield of thy help (Deuteronomy 33:29). When Israel would stay under the protection of the Lord’s shield, no enemy could stand before them. In that shield as they marched around the walls of Jericho they needed nothing man had made. God tore down the walls. And it came to pass at the seventh time, when the priests blew with the trumpets, Joshua said unto the people, Shout; for the Lord hath given you the city. So the people shouted when the priests blew with the trumpets: and it came to pass, when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, and the people shouted with a great shout, that the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city (Joshua 6:16,20).

When you stay under the protection of the blood-love shield and have the insurance of the shield, Christ Jesus, you have everything you need. All you have to do is stay in perfect obedience. The Lord wants perfect obedience with perfect love. Perfect obedience and perfect love go hand in hand; they operate together wherever they are found on Earth or in Heaven. Total obedience to the truth, to the mind of God is wonderful!

David’s song of deliverance in II Samuel is a thrilling passage. And he said, The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; The God of my rock; in him will I trust: he is my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge, my saviour; thou savest me from violence (II Samuel 22:2,3). The Lord is our deliverer; He delivers us from the powers of the enemy day after day. Jesus is our shield, our rock.

God gave us Jesus to be our shield for the great dispensation of the Gospel, this great Year of Jubilee, the acceptable year of the Lord. We must trust in our shield. Jesus is the joy, the horn of our salvation; He is the voice, the gladness, the happiness for us; the high tower from which we can see clearly. We don’t live in darkness; we live in the light with Him. We know the hour, for we see the signs of the times all around us, and the wonders of God’s miracle-working hand. The footprints of Jesus lead us on. If we don’t see them, we don’t move.

Always wait for the path with the footprints of Jesus. Any path overgrown with weeds is a path to avoid; but a path leading through the wilderness, a path with the footprints of Jesus will lead you safely. You can make connection with God’s love anywhere; it will glow through the darkness of the night for you. You can see the mark of God in the form of a footprint whether it was made two thousand years ago or today. Whether the nail-riven hand is stretched out at Calvary or stretched out at this very moment, you can see it through love. Through love you see that hand reaching out to the world in this last and final hour.

See through God’s Love Eyes

Never before has there been an hour like the one we live in when God’s hand is reaching to so many. More people are living on planet Earth today than ever before. Love shows us the nail-riven hands. Love shows us the ultimate power of God, and through love eyes we will see the gift of miracles operating. That’s the reason love is so important to us, saith the Lord. Only love can see the ultimate power of God and believe it all.

Pharaoh saw the waters of the Red Sea separate, but he looked at the miracle with the physical eyes and didn’t recognize it to be the work of God. He sent his soldiers into the sea to their death. He should have known better, and he would have seen the danger had he looked through God’s eyes.

We will see the dangers, saith the Lord. The Bride will see the dangers ahead of time, and she will avoid many, many pitfalls because of her love-sight. To have the sight of God is to have love-sight. God has love-sight, and He gives it to each one of His children who will use it. God gives you His love to see things as He sees things. You see His plan for your life through love, and you are greatly encouraged.

The Noah family had much to be discouraged about, but because they had love-sight, they didn’t give in to it.

God’s Love Shielded the Early Church

The Lord gave me a revelation of why people paid such a price in the beginning of the Church, why they were able to suffer the way they did, why they could die in the arena so victoriously for the sake of Christ. It was because of the shield they were in, His shield of love. With that love they knew it was the will of the Lord for them to die for His name’s sake, that they were being sacrificed. Stephen died like Jesus died; he died in the same love knowing he was being sacrificed as his Savior had been sacrificed. He was being sacrificed for a man standing by, holding the coats of those who were stoning him, and for others witnessing his death. Stephen had the revelation through love.

The Early Church survived because they used His peace. Christ went through everything, more than we will ever have to go through; and yet He had courage, strength, joy, peace. He showed us how we could use this overcoming power by the way He went through all the trials, temptations, the valleys, climbed all the mountains. Jesus was pure love; there was no hate in Him.

This is your message. God wants you to have it. It’s yours, and it can change your life completely. This will give you complete victory, saith the Lord. If you abide by what He is telling you in this one message, you will have complete victory in this last and final hour. This is the Bride’s victory, saith the Lord; this message is the Bride’s victory, this invisible blood-love shield. It’s a miracle to behold. We thank God that He is our shield!

Recognize the Jesus Way

The Lord is my glory, and the lifter up of mine head (Psalm 3:3). Let the Lord keep your head high; don’t be downcast. The strength of the Lord is here to keep you the way He wants you to be. He has a path He wants you to walk. Jesus walked a divine path with His head high. He didn’t take time for sin, to entertain evil; He didn’t endorse anything that was wrong. He was life, truth, the door who had come to show us the way.

Recognize the way Jesus showed you; it’s not man’s ways, it’s God’s way. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts (Isaiah 55:9).

The Lord gave us His love so we could move up to His high road and have the high thoughts of God. It’s amazing to think that we can live in this body of clay and still be like Jesus! You can do all things for the Lord through Jesus who gives you the power to do them: I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me (Philippians 4:13). The Lord gives the power, the strength to walk and talk like Jesus, to pray like Him and to use the power He used to deliver people from demon possession, sickness, disease, deformity.

Divine Blood Makes the Difference

How did you get your salvation? Through the blood; through the blood-love shield. Through divine blood we have salvation. Never forget that Jesus is your shield; His divinity, His blood protects you. Without that blood of divinity, He wouldn’t have been divine. Divine blood is what made Him different, and divine blood applied to your soul is what makes you different. The life is in the blood. When you have the blood-love shield, Jesus, you have His life flowing in your soul. Now let the reality of what is in your soul flow into your mind, work for your mind. If you have been born again, you have divine blood within you day and night. Become conscious of the divine blood-love shield. Become conscious, saith the Lord, divine blood conscious. You must be blood conscious in this last and final hour. It’s a must, saith the Lord.

Take all that God is serving you, for He is serving you much. Yield to the Holy Spirit, and He will help you keep what He serves, help you start putting it into action at once. The day is far spent, and you must use this message from Heaven so the Lord can rescue the lost, the ones marked for you to win. Every one of you has souls to win, saith the Lord. You have souls to win, souls to influence, souls to shine the light of Calvary on. Take the responsibility of carrying God’s love light to others. Some people may be within your reach only once, and you will have to shine the Gospel light, the blood-love light, at that moment, for it won’t do any good later.

Serve the Fruit of Gentleness

Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation: and thy right hand hath holden me up, and thy gentleness hath made me great (Psalm 18:35). The gentleness of Jesus has made you great. You don’t look on yourself as being great because you don’t have that kind of ego. But a child of God is great in the eyes of God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit.

Gentleness, one of the fruits of the Holy Spirit that you have to serve to others, will help make them great in the Lord, too. Gentleness is from the Lord. Serve that which the Lord gives you; serve the fruit of the Holy Spirit and nothing less. Everything needed is found in the nine fruits of the Holy Spirit. The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law (Galatians 5:22,23). Nothing is left out of the fruits of the Spirit—even temperance, self-control, is there so you can be in a condition to receive from God.

The greatness of God is being served today. It’s on the table already, saith the Lord. It’s yours. It isn’t on its way; it’s on the table. The Holy Spirit is seeking to train you, to school you how to use all the greatness of God that’s coming your way.

What Do You Do with the Holy Ghost?

It isn’t enough to have the love of God; you must know what to do with it. It isn’t enough to have the Holy Ghost; you must know what to do with Him and what to let Him do with you.

Years ago a woman wrote me saying, “Reverend Angley, I received the Holy Ghost. Now what do I do with Him?” It was a good question, and when you learn the answer, you can choke the devil with it. What can you do with Him and what can He do with you? You simply yield to the Holy Spirit; He knows what to do with the love of God. He knows just how to flow it into your mind, and how to keep that mind cup filled with love, love, love. God’s love destroys everything ungodly, everything unpleasant and destructive. There is nothing else like the love of God.

Our soul waiteth for the Lord: he is our help and our shield (Psalm 33:20). Why do we wait on the Lord? Because He is the help we need. Why look to man for help that can only come from the Lord? Why not wait for Him? Why search the minds of men for their opinions when the opinions that really count are God’s? People can make you weak, but the Lord will make you strong.

Does your soul wait for the Lord? Do you realize that the Lord is your help? Are you secure, unafraid? If the Lord is truly your shield you should be ashamed to fear what will happen on tomorrow, ashamed to talk weakness instead of God’s strength. Don’t let one weak statement come out of your mouth, words with no faith. For thou, Lord, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield (Psalm 5:12). The Lord will surround you with His protection.

Covered and surrounded with God’s love in the blood-love shield, you have nothing to fear, nothing to worry about. Behind you is a wall of God’s love protection. To the right, to the left and in front is that same wall of love. The very foundation you stand on is love, a foundation with not one grain of sand. The heavens are yours, a canopy over you of love. Looking up to that shield of love, you can almost see the angels walking down the avenue of Glory—your avenue; it’s willed to you as a joint-heir with Jesus; you own part of Heaven. You’re rich.

A Home in Heaven

Some people will give their whole lives to own a piece of real estate on Earth, sacrifice for years; and when they die, they leave it to someone else. But the real estate of value is in Heaven, and one day you as a child of God will go to it. You have a home in Heaven, a mansion—and no taxes will ever be assessed. It’s free. Jesus paid the price; He said, In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you (John 14:2). There is a mansion in Heaven for everyone who makes it through.

God is your help. When you get into trouble, go to God. The more you can stand on your two feet and not use people for a crutch, the stronger you will be. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore (Ephesians 6:13,14). With the whole armor of God you have the strength to stand.

Why be afraid when you are protected by the canopy of God’s love? The invisible blood-love shield is all around you, but the devil will try to make you believe you have no protection because others can’t see it. It doesn’t matter what others can’t see, just as long as you see it with your eyes of faith, the eyes of your soul. Do you have that shield?

A Message from the Holy Spirit

Yea, saith the Spirit of the Lord: I am unveiling myself to you, and I’m giving you a revelation of my love like I have never given in the past. You’re my delight; you’re my love for this hour, and I’m going to do mighty things through you, my people. I have taught you for many, many years. I sent my servant to you to gather you together for this hour, and no power can defeat you. I am your God. I am your Lord. My Son is your Savior. I have given you my Holy Spirit to guide you and to be with you. And I have put my love and my truth in you. You have not been taught false; I have given you my truth, and my truth has given you life. And now you will stand tall in this last hour. You will stand as tall as my Son Jesus stood when He was here on earth because you will stand in all the love and the power and the greatness that He brought. You will be blessed of heaven, and you will be a blessing. I will use you to turn the multitudes to me, saith the Lord.

Don’t look to the left; don’t look to the right. Don’t let the devil get your attention at any time day or night. Keep your eyes on my love, and know that you have my invisible love shield, and my love destroys everything, everything that’s wicked, everything that isn’t of grace—my love, my love, my love. I have given you my love, and you have power over the devil. My love blood: You trample devils. My love blood: You resist the devil and he will flee from you. My love blood: You can speak and the blood voice comes out as it came from my Son Jesus, and the devils have to obey. Let not your heart be troubled. Rise up and know who you are and what you are in my love; and liberty and freedom and deliverance will be yours to deliver to others, saith the Lord.

Let the invisible blood-love shield be yours; be shut in with His love no matter what you are going through in your home, at work or wherever, no matter what others may say or do to you. Be sealed up in the invisible shield of God’s eternal love and grace. Know the power of it, the strength of it, and know the enemy cannot break through it. Know that God’s love is moving for you, that you have this great love in you. It’s your great love, saith the Lord.

A Prayer of Consecration

Lord, the invisible blood-love shield is mine. Jesus is my shield. Jesus is my ark, and I am shut in with Him to never leave. His love is mine. I will let the Holy Spirit use the love in my soul to fill my mind daily. I will serve love. I will serve grace. I will serve your wisdom, Lord, your knowledge, your strength. I know that the things I serve, the things of truth will make plain paths for people and will be a light to show them the way. Dear Lord, I will be your instrument to turn many to righteousness. I give myself completely to your love. I will carry no hate, no envy, no strife, and I will not listen to any of it. I will listen to your love voice. I will take strength from your love voice. I will take courage daily from your love voice, as I lean upon your everlasting arm. On that everlasting arm of love I will do all the work you planned for me to do, Lord; and one day I will stand before your throne, bringing in the sheaves with me. I am yours, Lord, I am yours.

You have yielded your soul, now yield your mind and let the Holy Spirit know that your mind will be like the Jesus mind, that He will be able to flood your mind daily with the great things of God, to fill your mind cup again and again. Jesus is your shield, your shield of invisible blood love as you serve Him to the world in this last and final hour.
