Heed the Lord’s Invitation – Karen Austin

“My Spirit that is upon you and within you shall be your constant companion – revealing hidden truths that shall be as stepping stones to guide you in this season. Heed His voice in even the smallest of matters because, unbeknownst to you, it could mean life or death. As you well know, the enemy of your soul comes to steal, kill and destroy. But remember, I came to give you life! These are crucial times but you need not fear.

I knew of these days and have prepared for these days long ago. I have been and am even now preparing for you to be victorious in this hour. I see you as an overcomer! There shall rise from your very midst giants of faith who shall lead and gather My troops.

The invitation is given to all, but not all will chose to take up this last day’s mantle. Remember David as he could not wear Saul’s armor? I have a mantle prepared just for you – not another man’s mantle. Upon the breastplate of your mantle shall be tokens of your previous victories. These tokens are not only to cause you to remember My faithfulness, but also will serve as tokens to remind the enemy of his defeat!

I say that victory is Mine! I have procured this as I led captivity captive and made a show of the enemy openly. Your victory is in the Blood! Your assurance is in the resurrection!”

Return to Your First Love – Karen Austin

“I am loosing and removing the ropes that have had you bound. Just as there is an “unraveling” taking place in the earth, there is an “unraveling” taking place in My church. Things that wrapped you and confined you are being loosed. Bondage to tradition, false doctrines and beliefs are all breaking away as My truth is being revealed.

My people have walked in only a measure of freedom, but that is changing! They have become dissatisfied with the lack of power and the lack of not seeing what they believe. My church is pressing in. Former patterns of thinking, patterns of doing that which has not brought much fruit are breaking off. They are finding it is not in a doctrine. It is not in a “style” of ministry. It is not in what they can do, but it is only in what I will do! My church is coming back to their first love and making it once again only about Me.

When the focus of My church, their passion, their dreams are for Me alone, then comes all that they have desired. I must first have their heart. If I had released what was desired before My people were ready, it would have fallen to the ground and not produced the harvest that I desire. The power they sought would have destroyed them. My love for My church is too great to let this happen. Instead, I have allowed their “works” to become stagnant – until the desires of their hearts turned towards Me.

It will, it can only be, by My ways and in My timing. To know My ways and My timing, your eyes must be upon Me. But you must know this one thing: I must remain your One thing or what I desire you to move in will once again become stagnant. I must be your only source. I must be the One you seek, not just My gifts and My power. I desire that the fruit of My Spirit become so ripe in your walk that many shall partake of. I desire the fruit of My character be represented by those who are Mine. For to truly represent Me, you must walk in holiness. Yes, repent when you misstep and I will restore you.

Worship Me in the beauty of My holiness and I will shall wash away the things of the past…the pain, the losses, the failures, the betrayals. In the beauty of My holiness I will apply My eye salve upon your eyes that you may see clearly. I shall open your ears to hear My voice with clarity. I shall draw you near until your heart beats in time with Mine.”

“Ascribe to the Lord the glory due His name. Bring an offering and come before Him; worship the Lord in the splendor of His holiness.” 1 Chronicles 16:29

Being a Champion! – Karen Austin

“A Bridal Company is what I am gathering in these days, those who will do my bidding upon the earth. Their desires will be My desires. Their passion will be My passion! They will have doves eyes for only One. These will be ones who have heard My call, allowed the process to become single minded and have laid aside all..only to walk with Me. Oh, it shall not be in a small way that I shall use them, but they shall be mighty upon the earth. They shall be My dread champions!


And know this, I shall preserve them from all that would attempt to come against them to stop their Kingdom mission. It shall not be so!! My banner of love shall be over them. My Word shall be in their mouth, and their garment of praise shall defeat every enemy. The enemy shall not even find them as these ones shall be hidden in Me.

So come to My table and feast in My Presence for the time shall soon be upon you to suit up with My glory and reveal to the world that I AM is performing His Word for these days have been already been determined in eternity.


I AM the first and the last, the beginning and the end. These shall be days of My glory and days of My power on display for all to see. Miracles abounding! Signs in the Heavens and the earth have already begun. These shall be the greatest days of days for My Bridal Company says the Lord.”

It’s Time!! Are You Ready?? – Gary Florence

Whirlwind Prophetic Teaching , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

The other day as I was walking my dog this militant attitude rose up inside of me. I thought of the story of David and Goliath and how day after day Goliath would come out to the children of Israel and mock, taunt and make fun of them and their God until a shepherd boy believed in his heart “It’s Time” for this giant to fall and that is what took place a giant fell. 

Paul and his companion was walking through a city and every day this girl would follow them shouting, “these men are from the Most High God showing us the way to salvation” till one day Paul had enough of her taunting and he turned to her and commanded the spirit inside of her to come out and at that moment it left her.

I think of Elijah who was hiding out in a cave and God came to him, many think God was angry with Elijah and yelled at him “ELIJAH HOW LONG ARE YOU GOING TO HIDE OUT IN THIS CAVE?” I believe God came to him tenderhearted and said with a gentle voice “Elijah how long are you going to hide out in this cave?” The Lord was encouraging him to come out of the cave and partner with him and finish what was before him. I know many of us have been in our cave of intimacy. We have had our dreams, visions and prophetic downloads. We see them all over social media, but I believe with all my heart “It’s Time” for this giant (virus) to come down. There are those asking when will God intervene? The earth is not asking that question. The earth is asking when will the sons and daughters of God manifest and set it free from the bondage it is in.

Our God is far above every name that can be named and that includes a virus. I know that there are many opinions about this situation that we are in and I am not going to give my opinion at this time, but I think we can all agree that this virus has killed enough, stolen enough and destroyed enough and “It’s Time” to come out of the cave and declare and degree that enough is enough. We are tired of the mocking and taunting of this thing and wield our swords of authority. We are under the new covenant where Jesus’ blood speaks a better word. It says in the word “where two or more agree on anything on earth it shall be done in heaven.”

“It’s Time” to bind this virus and everything that has piggy backed on it, the spirit of death, fear, poverty etc. and “It’s Time” to loose healing, deliverance, restoration and people becoming whole again and show this thing (virus) who our God truly is and that is “Our God is mighty to save.”

Are we not watchmen on the wall? Together we can stand in the gap and declare to the world “Not On My Watch” “It’s Time!!! Are You Ready???”

The Depths of His Love – Karen Austin

“I am bringing you into a place of knowing the depth of My love – which is a place of freedom. A place where you will know who I am and you will know who you are.

I say the mountain that is before you shall melt like wax at My Presence. There is no devil, no sickness, no disease that can stand in My Presence. Only you, My beloved, have I allowed, have I invited to come stand in My Presence. For when you stand in My Presence, I shall release fresh vision unto you. I shall speak to your heart the things that you must know.

When you worship, know I am in the midst of your worship. As I said in My Word, I inhabit the praises of My people. I shall rise up as a mighty warrior and I will fight for you! Strengthen yourself in Me! Worship unto Me and shout to the mountain that is before you, for I shall release My voice though you!

I would have you to understand the power of My love. Think of the mighty power that is in a flood of water that invades your land. It washes everything in its path. It removes debris. It even removes that which has been rooted for a long time. So it is with My love. Many do not understand the power of My love. Some say love is weak, but oh, they have not experienced My all consuming love.

There is power in My Word! There is power in My name! There is power in My blood! There is power in My love! When you release My love within you there is power released – power to soften even the hardest of hearts. When you release love, you release Me, for I am love.”

Karios of the Kingdom – Karen Austin

“Hear the cries of those who have gone on before you. They are those who yearned to see a move of My Spirit such as has not been seen upon the earth….to see the things that you will see and to hear the revelation that you will hear. “But blessed are your eyes because they see, and your ears because they hear. For truly I tell you, many prophets and righteous people longed to see what you see but did not see it, and to hear what you hear but did not hear it.” Matthew 13:16-17

Sin has reached its peak in the earth. It has been only by My hand of grace that the death and destruction hell is so desperately trying to vomit on this earth has been restrained. Yes, there will be a time of destruction and devastation, I have told you so, but the time is not yet. “You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of birth pains.” Matthew 24:6-8.

But I say to you there is a move of My Spirit beginning even now and a soon demonstration of My power and My glory that shall cause shouts of joy to arise from the earth. There is a stirring up of My people. Those who have ears to hear and eyes to see what I am saying and revealing to My church. The knowledge of My glory shall cover the earth as the water covers the sea [Habakkuk 2:14]. Even as I make Myself known, many who have run from Me will be confronted with having to make a decision of whether to turn their hearts to Me or turn away from My great love for them. My love is so great for mankind that I am always reaching out to bring those who have strayed or have not experienced My love for them. It will be during this time I will bring in the greatest harvest ever known.

I need you, My people, to partner with Heaven with your prayers, your intercession, your worship and your decrees. For this is a karios time in which I desire to move greatly upon the earth. Know that not one of you are unimportant or not needed in this hour. Cry out to Me as those of old. Allow My zeal to consume you with My desire to shake this world with the revelation of who I AM and My passion for My Bride.”

Access Has Been Granted – Karen Austin

Whirlwind Hearing the voice of the Lord , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

“Many have expounded and concentrated on My acts and My Words, but many failed to zero in on My source, which was when I went to the mountain to meet with My Father.

It was here, in the realm of His glory, in the midst of His love that He would reveal His heart; that I would see what I was to do. It was here that I could see clearly the desires of My Father. I then would demonstrate the miracles in the earthly realm; that which I saw in the Heavenly realm.

Once again, revelation of the glory is being released, for the hunger of many is drawing Me. For you see, this is the atmosphere for “fullness”. As you enter the realm of glory, your focus is solely upon Me and My abilities in you to set you and the captives free. Where the Spirit of the Lord is there is liberty! Release My Spirit to work within you and through you. Ascend to the place of My glory and allow My goodness, My love to overwhelm you and you will be brought into the place where impossibilities become possible. In this place of communion, you become one with Me.

Access has been granted to My glory. The invitation is extended to all who are hungry. Enter into what has been prepared for you since the beginning of time. You are My creation. I’ve known you before your conception. I knew those whom I would chose to become this last generation that I have called unto Myself. I know you by name and I have seen your faith.

Man has used My name and My acts for their gain, but I say no more. If you do not have regular time with Me, motives will become tainted for the temptation will be great. My purity and My power has not been released as I have desired. Yes, man will always sin. Repent and remain broken before Me.

This is why contact with My Presence is a must daily. This is the place where self dies…where self-desires, self-promotion are crucified. This is the place where My heart, My will is instilled in the hearts of man. This is the place of cleansing by My Spirit. Without daily cleansing there greater friction between your flesh and your spirit. Since the fall of mankind, flesh and the soul of man always desires to take preeminence over the spirit. Without daily times in My Presence and in My Word, your focus will remain earthly. Then pride, lust of the flesh and lust of the eye begin to take control. My gifts, My callings are without repentance. There is a price to walk in My manifest Presence. “For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory that is to be revealed to us. For the anxious longing of the creation waits eagerly for the revealing of the sons of God.” Romans 8:18-19

Much is on the horizon for you and for this world. So come, ascend into the Holy Place. I am waiting for those who will come boldly to inhale the atmosphere of Heaven and exhale the atmosphere of Heaven upon the earth.

Come Up and Cross Over! – Karen Austin

Whirlwind Hearing the voice of the Lord , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Even though this word was given to me in 2012, it is so applicable to today. You see, the prophetic word has an expanse that is not limited to time. It’s understanding in one season can take on a whole deeper understanding when you are in a different season. As we go from glory to glory, so does our understanding as more revelation is given.

“Know that I have released a “Come Up here” invitation to those who are seeking My heart. Part of what I desire to do is to expand your expectations and cause your faith level to come higher. When you come to Me, you must expect to receive of Me. Every time you come into My Presence, you are changed. You come away with a little more of Myself, My desires planted in your heart. For if you remain and expect to reach only what you have seen from your experiences – you will be setting your faith on much less than what I desire to release in your midst. The majority of My church has set limits on what I can do by only expecting what they have seen or experienced in the past. But there is so much more that shall be released to those who raise their faith bar and come with expectation.

This is the season of crossing over and part of that crossing over is leaving the measuring rod of a “measure” and crossing over into the limitless place of “fullness”. Even the gifts and offices that I gave unto man have remained in the “measure” degree. You shall see My apostles, prophets, pastors, evangelists, and teachers come into fullness. You shall see even gifts of healing, miracles, prophecy come to fullness – and oh, it is because of those who will allow Me to take them into the realms of My glory. It is here that the gifts and the offices leave the place of “measure” and enter “fullness” for when you enter into glory – you enter into the atmosphere of above and beyond what you can even imagine. It is here that the limit that comes from mindsets of man are released. You leave the limiting realm of man and enter the limitless realm of My Spirit. You remain in the “measure” when you only rely upon the anointing levels of your past.

I AM the anointed One and I operated from that realm of fullness. I only did what t I saw My Father do and that “seeing” was from the place of intimacy. It was the anointing operating from the realm of fullness resting upon Me. For I came as a man, void of My Heavenly powers. I had only what is accessible to you on earth. Oh, but I paved the way by the shedding of My Blood and the release of My Spirit unto you, that you too may access this realm of glory… this realm of fullness. Come….enter in…the door has been opened.

“…….as he is so also are we in this world.” 1 John 4:17
