1:54: “You are My hero. Children may say this to their father. One may say it to a courageous friend. A wife may say it to her husband.

“I speak it to those who follow Me.

“Those who say Yes to Me, no matter what I ask of them, will be the heroes of My Kingdom. Mighty Warriors known on earth and in heaven for their mighty deeds. For surely in this New Day they will walk in My Glory and call down acts of wonder for the good of those in need. My heroes will, in My Name, heal the sick, deliver the oppressed, even raise the dead. The heroes of this time will walk in great faith – faith indeed strong enough to move a mountain. My heroes will make demons flee, calm storms, and release My Power to heal the Earth. They will lack NOTHING, for they will speak and do My WILL as I show them. They will be unstoppable.

“Satan and his ragtag minions know what is coming. And they are terrified. And so they screech and scream, and threaten My People – as if they could stop the POWER of the Almighty God. Pay them no heed. Keep your eyes fastened on Me, your Guide and Commander. On Me, the Lion of Judah. Attune your eyes to My Voice, and you will learn to hear my mere whisper. You read about the ‘heroes of the faith’ in My Word. My People in this New Time shall do far greater things than they. For My Glory shall be poured out on all mankind as never before.

“Come, My People. Come to My Altar of Holiness and commit your all to Me. Ready yourselves to receive the Outpouring of My Spirit in all His Glory. Hone your faith. Whet your appetite for greatness. And you shall be MY HEROES of MY KINGDOM. Come and SHINE with Me. AMEN.”

Notes:

Judges 6:12: The angel of the Lord appeared to [Gideon] and said to him, “The Lord is with you, O valiant warrior.”

Hebrews 11:32-34: And what more shall I say? For time will fail me if I tell of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, of David and Samuel and the prophets, who by faith conquered kingdoms, performed acts of righteousness, obtained promises, shut the mouths of lions, quenched the power of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, from weakness were made strong, became mighty in war, put foreign armies to flight. 

Psalm 16:3: As for the saints who are in the earth, they are the majestic ones in whom is all my delight.

John 14:12-13: Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do, he will do also; and greater works than these he will do; because I go to the Father. Whatever you ask in My name, that will I do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 

Joel 2:28-29: “It will come about after this that I will pour out My Spirit on all mankind; and your sons and daughters will prophesy, your old men will dream dreams, your young men will see visions. Even on the male and female servants
I will pour out My Spirit in those days.”

Matthew 17:20: …”Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed,you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.” 

“Do not try to do good. BE good.

“The only way you can BE good is through Me. ‘Good’ is according to My standards. ‘Good’ means holy. Blameless. Without guile. Filled with Love. Such is My Good. No one attains this without being washed clean in My Blood. ‘No one is good but God,’ I said to the young man who longed for salvation but could not give up his wealth. That was before the cross. My cross, stained with My Blood, now renders holiness, goodness, to those who accept Me and live according to My standards.

“Earthly ‘goodness’ is no good to Me.

“I do not call you to pursue goodness. It is a condition, a gift that results from pursuing ME. Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness, Goodness, Faithfulness, Gentleness, Self-control. These come through Me alone. Pursue them on your own and acquire none – according to My definition. Pursue Me and you will live them all.

“Goodness is not doing good works. Good works, a life of service to others, cannot of themselves purify you from sin. The strain of trying to be My Good without My salvation of your soul brings much burden, for it is unattainable. Goodness, as with all the fruit of My Spirit, is the natural condition of a life lived with Me. Pursue Me, and you have all. Pursue any of My fruit itself – and it shall remain ever out of your reach. Fruit does not grow of itself. It must first have seed. That Seed, that beginning, is ME. Always, Always, I AM your ANSWER. Life begins – and grows – with Me, the Creator of Life.

“Lay yourself on My altar, commit yourself completely to Me, say Yes to whatever I ask of you – and Goodness follows. I will ask of you whatever in your life you would place above Me. For the young man who asked for salvation long ago, it was his wealth. Earthly wealth often brings pursuit of earthly power. These are of no good to My Kingdom. Wealth of soul and spirit will save. A life of commitment to Me alone may bring wealth, but if so, the wealth is dedicated to Me and My Kingdom – and therefore will not destroy. Seek ME, and you can have all. Seek anything outside of full commitment to Me – and lose everything.

“I AM all you need. I AM your ALL. Seek Me – and LIVE.

“Amen.”

Mark 10:17-22: As He was setting out on a journey, a man ran up to Him and knelt before Him, and asked Him, “Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?” And Jesus said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one is good except God alone. You know the commandments, ‘Do not murder, Do not commit adultery, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Do not defraud, Honor your father and mother.’” And he said to Him, “Teacher, I have kept all these things from my youth up.” Looking at him, Jesus felt a love for him and said to him, “One thing you lack: go and sell all you possess and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me.” But at these words he was saddened, and he went away grieving, for he was one who owned much property.

Psalm 16:2: I say to the Lord, “You are my Lord; I have no good apart from you.”

Galatians 5:22-25: But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. Now those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live by the Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit.

Ephesians 2:8-9: For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.

Psalm 39:11: With reproofs You chasten a man for iniquity; You consume as a moth what is precious to him…

Proverbs 10:22: It is the blessing of the LORD that makes rich, And He adds no sorrow to it.

Matthew 6:33: “But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.”

11:50: “They will know you by your Love.

“No matter the gifts I give you, My People, even the gift of healing, or prophecy, or wisdom, or tongues – none of these are as important as Love. You read this in My Word as Paul wrote it. Read it with your heart. My Love – the Love I have called you to also carry – transcends all. Love took Me to the cross for you. Love brought Me back to Life. Love healed the diseases and ailments of many. Love multiplied food for the crowds. Love patiently taught My disciples. Love patiently teaches you. Love will fill you with strength when all else fails. Love will bring in My harvest. Love serves. Love prays for others, Love stands against sin and longs to praise and follow Me.

“Love is your path to eternity.

“Love is not cynical, does not unjustly judge, never elevates oneself. My Love is Perfection. Is your highest calling. Your greatest GIFT and attainment.

“You cannot please Me without Love.

“I say again – you cannot please Me without Love. LISTEN to this meaning. GRASP it. Anything you do, no matter how great the deed, is not pleasing to Me if it does not spring from Love for Me and for others. Measure EVERY deed you do by the greatness of the Love behind it. Even the washing of a dish, the watering of a plant. Did my provision give you the dish – and the food that left it dirty? Is the plant not of My creation? ALL good things come from Me – because of My Love for you. Care for all I have given you out of Love and a grateful heart toward Me.

“Most of all, Love other people. Can you find one I did not die for? One I have not Loved with My very Life?

“Love leaves NO ROOM for pride. Love looks always to Me – the giver and creator of Love. I AM Love. True Love. Godly, holy, Love. Godly, perfect Love always leads back to Me. THIS is why you must Love. Love seeks Me. Love comes to Me. Love surrenders to Me – and calls others to do the same. Love forgives. Love drives out fear. Love brings faith.

“Love accepts Me and yearns for Me – for I AM the origin and fulfillment of Love.

“Seek Me in all things. Ask Me for My spiritual gifts – designed for you to serve others. Most of all, ask Me to fill you with My Love. Seek this night and day. When you seek Love, you seek ME.

“Amen.”

Notes:

In reading the words from the Lord given on the 15th of each month, I was surprised to see that one month ago, 2/15/25, God’s word was also on Love. (It’s interesting how I’ve began to see a pattern on the dates.) I encourage you to read and declare this word over your life as well. You can find it here: https://burningbrand.blog/2025/02/15/february-15-2025/

I Corinthians 13:1-8: If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have love, I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. And if I give all my possessions to feed the poor, and if I surrender my body to be burned, but do not have love, it profits me nothing. Love is patient, love is kind and is not jealous; love does not brag and is not arrogant, does not act unbecomingly; it does not seek its own, is not provoked, does not take into account a wrong suffered, does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails; but if there are gifts of prophecy, they will be done away; if there are tongues, they will cease; if there is knowledge, it will be done away.

James 1:17: Every good thing given and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shifting shadow. 

I John 4:7-12:  Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love. In this the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent his only Son into the world, so that we might live through him. In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. No one has ever seen God; if we love one another, God abides in us and his love is perfected in us.

It is such a blessing to look back on the words of the Lord and see how He is now bringing them to pass. He spoke this word over America three months ago, December 14.

2:32: “To God be the Glory.

“The remaining days of your slavery, America, are few. Watch as I dismantle the slavery systems in your nation. Finance, food, health, energy. Your everyday lives will change. Your future will expand before you in new ways. I will bless your families, My People. I will bring in your prodigals to Harvest. You must fight your enemy, stand strong against his wiles. As My Word says, I will crush him under your feet. YOUR feet. Rise, Rise in My Glory and use all the authority I have granted you as My co-heirs. Your steadfastness will send your enemy fleeing.

“Do not mind the shaking to come. I shake out the evil and replace it with My Good. What has been lost shall be returned. Trust Me in the shaking. Trust Me through all threats of your enemy. I have decreed to save America. DO NOT DOUBT IT. Stand firm in Faith. Call for My angels to do My work that you cannot. Call on Me for needed miracles. Nothing is impossible for Me, your King. All Honor and Glory and Praise to the King. Amen.”

II Corinthians 3:18: “So all of us who have had that veil removed can see and reflect the glory of the Lord. And the Lord—who is the Spirit—makes us more and more like him as we are changed into his glorious image.”

Romans 16:20: The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet.

Romans 8:16-17: The Spirit Himself testifies with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, heirs also, heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ…

Matthew 19:26: But Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”
