GATHERING IN THE JEWELS [ENCOURAGING RE WOUNDED, BOUND ETC]

Extreme measures must be taken in order to bring about a restoration of heart. Many have been trying by their own strength to heal that which was wounded years past. I want you to know that the only way to bring about a healing is by listening to the still small voice in your heart and obeying Its direction. In order to listen you must be quiet and still and be able to rest in the assurance of knowing that it is I who has started a good work and that I AM faithful to complete it.

This is the time and the hour that I will set the captives free. Yes, those who many have even given up on, but I have seen their hearts crying out to Me in travail. I have seen the faithfulness in their hearts that no one else has been able to see. And yes, I AM the One who will bring to pass their healing and deliverance. With a mighty travail of My heart's cry, bondages will be broken off and scales will fall from the eyes of those who have been lost by the enemy's lies and confusion.

Yes, I will set the captives free, but I AM looking for those who are willing and able to be the vessel I can move through with a mighty roar. For when I pour out My travail, the enemy's camp will be scattered, and many will rise up, even like Lazarus being raised from the dead. Yes, the grave cloths will unravel, and the minds that have been held captive, even by mental illness, will be set free. And those plagued by the deaf and dumb spirit will rise up in the revelation of the truth that Who the Son sets free is free indeed.

And I have set you free to set the captives free. So be willing and be available to reach out to those who are lost, not specifically to those of the world, but to those of your brethren. Yes, many of your sisters and brothers have been plagued by many infirmities of the heart and need those who are willing to reach out with My love.

Yes, My love is a powerful weapon against the forces of darkness. Never underestimate its power for it is I who broke the forces of darkness at the Cross, and it is I who broke the forces of darkness in the grave. And most of all when I rose up, I broke off all the chains of bondage off of all humanity with My victory shout.

So let out a mighty cry and say that the devil is defeated and is under your feet, and go out and claim your inheritance. Yes, lay hands on the sick and see them recover. Raise up the spiritually dead. Cast off the bondage from the mentally oppressed. Reap a mighty harvest of souls, those that I have placed a mighty calling upon. Yes, see those that have been disabled and see them as a mighty threat to the kingdom of darkness and a great asset to My kingdom.

Be on the winning side and fight for those I've given My life for. Don't cast them aside as waste. See them as a valuable jewel in the crown of the King. Yes, fight for those who are held captive, for this is the time and the hour to avail as you travail, says your King.

This is an encouraging word, to me.

GOD ALONE can do it. He does require some cooperation.

He does want us to spend quiet, still time focusing on Him to better hear and discern His still small voice.

But there is--HE IS--HOPE for us and for our loved ones bowed down in various bondages, disillusioned with cold hearts.
