This is a month that we must shout, “Let us GO so WE may WORSHIP!”  We must remember that the key to worship is the object of our faith. Our faith is in our Risen Lord and Savior. Jesus Christ, the Passover Lamb, was the ultimate sacrifice of Father God for the redemption of mankind.  Abraham was willing to sacrifice Isaac, but Father sacrificed Meshach, our Messiah. His son then rose from the dead by the Spirit and that same Spirit is available to us.  

Sunday’s services were so powerful!  The move of God began at the end of the second service.  In the first service, Robert Heidler shared on “10 Steps to Freedom!” I will expound on those 10 Steps when we enter into the corporate fast beginning on Monday, March 15 and going through March 24. You can choose your seven days to fast.  

I shared on “Coming Out of Idolatry!”  Here are seven key steps to keep us from advancing and going from faith to faith, strength to strength, and glory to glory. The people of Israel “passed over” but could not keep going. When Moses went to Mount Sinai to receive the ordinances that would produce freedom in their worship, the people made a Golden Calf to worship. Here are the seven key issues that cause you to move out of worship and into idolatry: 

1. No Respect and TRUST of Authority. Moses gave them the command to wait but when he did not return, their trust level (which had really never developed since leaving Egypt) waned and shifted.
2. Getting out of TIMING: The inability to wait in Faith! Moses had communicated that he would be back within 40 days. They miscalculated the timing. They were one day off! ONE DAY OFF! They refused to wait the one day. Saul repeated the pattern in I Samuel 14 and lost his kingship over this issue.
3. Leaning on your own understanding. The moment you don’t wait, you do something. That something creates an order that diverts you from God’s best. Eventually, you are swatting at gnats instead of soaring with eagles.
4. Exercise our authority in a realm where we have none. Isaiah 6:1 says, “In the year King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord!” Uzziah, a good king, out of pride, took on a priestly role and made sacrifices. God made him leprous and he died. Isaiah saw this happen. This propelled him into a new understanding of who God really was and the power of His holiness. 
5. The Fear of Abandonment!  When you feel abandoned, you act irrational. You shrink back and create a false authority structure around you to protect you. This same thing happened to the ten spies that went into the Promised Land without Moses.  The disciples of Jesus hid out for fear after his death (John 20). All religion can have a legalistic, fear base. True worship has an “awe” dimension.
6. Hope deferred makes the heart sick and diverts our worship.  The enemy begins to say, “God is not good and not coming through for you”! All of our organs are affected when we divert from true worship of Yahweh through His Son. This has been the enemy’s main scheme from the beginning.
7. YOUR GIVING is diverted from sacrifice and begins to build something that is not out of God’s best pattern in heaven!!!!!!

Read Exodus 31, 32 
Meditate on I Samuel 15, John 20  
Memorize Is. 6:1

Fault lines in the earth are realigning. A fault can be a mistake, failure, or act of wrongdoing. This detracts from the integrity, functioning, or perfection of something else.  In Geology, a fault is the displacement of rock layers in the Earth’s crust in response to stress. These are accompanied by a break in the continuity of the rocks on each side of a line. Fault lines in us are realigning. You find fault in others because you are filled with faults in your inner being. Therefore, you see through your faults as you look at others. Weaknesses, shortcomings, imperfections, defects, flaws, deficiencies, and drawbacks become you’re your way of discernment. The opposite of fault is strength. Once a fault is working, your strength is removed. The perception you have for others is then distorted.  

This is a time for the faults within you to realign and create good ground and a firm identity for your future. Once the fractures from past seasons come together, you will surprise the enemy with the power that is in you.  Allow the realignment of your soul to be completed. Allow the shaking of His hand to have full access to deep fissures in you.  Decree that all fragmentation of your soul that has affected your personality will be healed.  The Lord is ready to heal you so He can heal the land.  

The enemy will be surprised at who you really are. You were in God’s mind before the foundation of the world, but the trials, circumstances, wounds, and iniquities in your blood line has created a personality that has never come into the fullness of His plan. Now is the time for healing and realignment. Now is the time for a shaking to occur in your blood. This shaking will purify, realign, and release a new glory! 

Matthew 7

Haggai 2

Isaiah 58

“Do you not remember that I said I would create you as a tuning fork?  So I am coming in and speaking to you through different frequencies.  Can you hear My voice and tune in to the way I am speaking and what I AM bringing in for you to hear.  I AM bringing different sounds at different frequencies. Listen carefully as you adjust your hearing to My voice this season.” 

 “You’ve been saying, ‘But my spirit is not picking up on anything.  I feel as if nothing is telling me to move to the right or left.’ Tune your spirit in a new way!  Move with Me in a new way.  Ask Me new questions.   If you will ask the right questions, your spirit will hear the right answers.” 

“The sound of My love and the sound of the war around are beginning to blend.  Like a sword that I bring, I will cut through the confusion of that which is stirring around you so you can hear My heart.  For in hearing My heart is the love that I have for you. This will bring you faith for faith works by love.  But I come to bring a sword in this next week! I will cut away what is keeping you from hearing.  I will simplify the warfare around you. Many times, your wars are not My wars.  Watch the sound as My Love Sword swings! You have crossed over into a new land but you’re saying, ‘I don’t know how to go forward.  I don’t know how to go forward.’ There is a sound of the cutting of My sword that is coming into your midst.  In that place of cutting, your vulnerability will be the key to your advancement.”

During these times of consecration and fasting leading up to Passover, the Lord has invited us to come into His house of spiritual feasting.  What a great host He is when we come to spend extended time with Him!  Though we may not be partaking of physical wine, He has invited us to come to His wine fountain and fill our glasses with the Wine of His Joy and the Wine of His Love drawn from Emmanuel's veins.   

In scripture, wine is a symbol of joy. But, I personally have always viewed the wine of Jesus' blood only from the perspective of great sorrow.  I think on Gethsemane…Calvary…wrestling…anguish.  Yet in this Hebrew month of Adar*(see below), God is opening my eyes for the first time to see beyond the sorrow…to look again and see the great joy hidden in the drink offering that Jesus offered.  His blood…the Wine of His Love…would be so costly, yet poured out into the earth, would become a superabundant fountain of blessing and cleansing for the world He so loved.  Stop for a moment and just sense the total and complete satisfaction of Jesus when He could say, "It is finished!"  In other words, "Father, I have completely and fully and perfectly given myself and poured myself out for the ones I love!  It is done!"  Taste the Wine of His Joy!   

Jesus says, "If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink!"  This drink that Jesus gives is heavenly -- it is beyond this world in which we live.  It is above the chaos and confusion, the brokenness and despair, and the circumstances and trials that we encounter.  It is a fountain that always flows, just as Jesus ever lives to make intercession for us.  The Wine of His Joy is meant to lift you above and beyond! 

We are to joyfully drink in the Spirit which Jesus has poured out!   This is our drink in the Kingdom of God.  It is the reason we can rejoice exceedingly in spite of the difficulties that surround us.  We are not waiting for those troubles to disappear.  Instead, He has prepared for us a table in the very midst of it all.   The Wine of His Joy causes us to taste and see the future victory in this present moment!  

Drink in the Wine of His Love.  Drink in the Wine of His Peace.  Drink in the Wine of the Kingdom with those you love.  Offer it to those in despair.  Celebrate with Him in the Wine of His Joy!  Jesus has poured out His VERY BEST for you.  His devotion to you is perfect.  Drink deeply, beloved ones!

*The month of Adar is associated with joy, laughter, sweetness, hidden blessings, and a deer leaping on the mountains….Rejoice at the end of this season so you enter into the next season with new strength.

I hope you are now seeing in a new way! The past 28 days have been about seeing.  Recently Tiffany Smith came forward and said: “There is power in son-ship.  I won’t relent until you get to the place I’ve destined for you.  I won’t relent.  I am committed to you.”  Until the day Jesus returns, He is committed to you every day, every step, every purpose. There is a place called “Beyond” that the Lord is calling you to.  See Your place called “Beyond” and start pressing toward that place.  

If you want to know us better, you can go to our website. Tuesday’s Early Prayer was just awesome as Melinda Richardson led and administered revelation and Chad Foxworth and James Vincent sang the New Song of the Lord on Going Beyond.  To find “WHO WE ARE”, go to our www.gloryofzion.org and on the home page just click the icon.  You can also select the Media Page icon to review a portion of Tuesday prayer as well as highlights from Sunday morning.
