My People Called by My Name – Karen Austin

“I am calling you up and I am calling you out. I will direct you and I will lead you. I have been training your spirit to follow after Me and My ways. Even in times of trouble, your heart was still tuned towards Me. Watch and see what I will do through you as you yield yourself to Me.

Stay pure that I may work through you as I desire. I will no longer be confined within the boundaries of old mindsets. I have been working in those who are Mine, new garments to hold the new wine that is being poured out upon the earth. “No one sews a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment. Otherwise, the new piece will pull away from the old, making the tear worse. And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. Otherwise, the wine will burst the skins, and both the wine and the wineskins will be ruined. No, they pour new wine into new wineskins.” (Mark 2:21-22, NIV) For I shall do a new thing, such as has never been seen by man. There will be miracles here and miracles there. There will be such an outpouring upon your sons and your daughters that you hearts will overflow with joy. My raw power will be on display.

Even in worship, My Presence will be so heavy, so strong that many will be drawn into that place. Fear, shame, intimidation will not be able to keep them bound as they experience My love for them. For you see, this is the hour of My love being revealed in such a greater measure because the hearts of many are drawing Me near.

Keep your heart continually pure and connected to Mine. You must allow Me to continue a deep work of cleansing in your heart – removing thoughts, ideas, mindsets, traditions and even your opinions. For you to minister from this deep realm – it must come from “the deep” in you. You must continue to walk in humility. Man will only be transformed when their heart is touched with My Spirit delving into the depths of their hidden pain, impurity, anger, resentment and shame to bring healing and restoration. Just as MRIs and CAT scans can see clearly and find foreign matters in the natural body, so shall My discernment increase in greater levels to enable you to see that which should be foreign in the heart of those who are Mine.

A desire for righteousness is rising within My people. There is a cry for truth and no more compromise. These are ones who will stand for justice and freedom. They are not willing to compromise and allow evil to prevail. I have placed destiny within their hearts for the days you are in… a call to change their nation and even their world. Did not My disciples turn the world upside down with My Kingdom truths and My Kingdom authority?

No longer look back for the pattern, for the old will not get you to the destiny that I have for you. This must be a walk of faith, trusting Me as I lead you into the land of promise, what I have prepared before the beginning of time. All that has been done before has paved the way for today – this last day move. Be ready. Seek Me.

Are you be willing to be different? To step out from that which was and into that which is to be? Will you allow Me to manifest Myself through you as I desire and to whom I choose? You must not be afraid of the criticism of man. My Word will testify of itself.

Allow Me to work in you, finalizing the work for the building of My dwelling place – you.”

You Are the Apple of My Eye – Karen Austin

This day I want you to know that I celebrate you. From the day your were born, My hand was upon you. I led you and guided you touching your heart with My touch, causing you to hunger for Me. The more that you hungered, the more I would touch you to lead you and show you there is always more.

Never will you exhaust the depths of Me. There is an open door before you. I invite you to come explore the depths of My glory and My love. For I have placed in you a well that will never go dry, for it is found in My Spirit within you. Deep calling to deep. I call you out into the depths to learn of Me. Come, drink of My refreshing water that will quench your thirsty soul. You have found that it is only I that satisfies that which you hunger and thirst for.

Each time you read My Word, I can see your spirit leaping with excitement..”Yes! This is so good Lord!” This excitement for revelation and truth brings Me great joy. For it is the pleasure of the Father to reveal to you things that are hidden. As with little children, the parent will hide gifts, but leaves a hint, a trail, so they may find that which is hidden…and so do I. My Spirit nudges you to seek more, then He reveals. Then He nudges you again so you will seek even more. This process never stops as long as you remain hungry and you remain humble.

It is My delight to give you the good things of My Kingdom for you are Mine, says the Lord. I have redeemed you. I have ransomed you that you would be Mine. You are My treasure and My delight.

Believe this – You are never forsaken. You are never forgotten. I keep you as the apple of My eye. I watch your coming and your going. As you are confident in My love and your position in Me, joy then radiates from within you and touches others. It is My joy within you – the fruit of My Spirit and My Spirit always brings life.
