I WILL ADDRESS THE BRIDE

I want to address the bride.

My bride is to wash in the living waters. She is stained with not just the cares of this world but she is stained with the sins of this world.

My bride languishes.

(To languish: to exist in an unpleasant or unwanted situation, often for a long time.)

There can be no time , no room for languishing.

There can be no room for a bride who prevaricates.

(prevaricate means to deviate from the right course or speak evasively..)

When I tell My bride they are to prepare themselves, they must prepare themselves.

They must ask Me exactly how they must prepare – it will be slightly different for each individual due to present circumstances.

They must ask Me if they have missed anything. Because many in the bride are missing things – they have omitted vital preparations.

Their armour has holes, slits, gaps in the metal.

Some of My bride have been wounded.

The enemy has fired shots and wounded them.

They are hurting from the wounds of loved ones, friends and family who do not approve of them, who talk about them, even curse them.

My bride , listen carefully. There are whole companies of witches, warlocks, workers of darkness who perform rituals and cast spells in order to bring down the bride of Christ.

You must arm yourself more carefully and completely.

Many of you do not begin your day by polishing and mending your armour. Making sure it is in place and fully functional before you step into the fray . Every day you are going onto a battlefield yet you act like you are on home ground.

This world is not your home.

The enemy owns it. It is in fact, home ground for the enemy.

Many of you are not using the weapons I have provided. Nor are you using the gifts I have given you. They are provided so that you might prevail.

You are about to go into the deadliest battle any believer has ever faced.

There will be no time for strategy meetings.

No time to grieve the dead – because you will suffer loss.

No time to sit around polishing your armour and reminiscing over previous battles.

I want you to understand that I Am not addressing the believer in the Lord Jesus Christ here.

I Am addressing My bride. There is a difference.

If you do not understand this, at this critical time. If you do not know this by now, then dear one, you are not My bride.

Many are called. Few are chosen.

Yes. I choose My bride. I choose them out of the body of believers.

They are the ones who hear and obey My voice.

They are the ones who come up higher when invited.

Who dwell in My presence rather than visit occasionally.

These are the ones I will use in the final harvest.

My bride, if they are indeed My bride, know that they will be in the final battle. That they will be tested and tried one final time before going into that final battle.

Right at the beginning of tribulation the test comes that seals the bride.

And then comes the harvest at the end of the age.

If, at this point, you have never come away from the things of this world, the distractions and amusements. If you have never separated yourself from the believers who have themselves never died to self, taken up their cross and followed Me. Then you are not My bride.

You are saved – by the skin of your teeth as it were. *

I know you. But you do not know Me well enough. You do not know whom you have believed in well enough.

My bride are close friends rather than invited guests.

Do you remember the parable I taught in My word? I told you there would be a wedding feast .

You were invited but did not get on and write your acceptance. You did not say yes, I am coming and you did not dress yourself as a bride would dress herself.

Do you not understand that if you do not look like My bride, then you are not My bride?

Matthew 22:8 “Then he said to his servants, ‘The wedding banquet is ready, but those I invited did not deserve to come. 9 So go to the street corners and invite to the banquet anyone you find.’ 10 So the servants went out into the streets and gathered all the people they could find, the bad as well as the good, and the wedding hall was filled with guests.

11 “But when the king came in to see the guests, he noticed a man there who was not wearing wedding clothes. 12 He asked, ‘How did you get in here without wedding clothes, friend?’ The man was speechless.13 “Then the king told the attendants, ‘Tie him hand and foot, and throw him outside, into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’14 “For many are invited, but few are chosen.”

* Those whom God has said are “saved by the skin of your teeth” are in real danger. When plunged into tribulation, the time of Jacob’s trouble, they will not survive for 5 minutes . Or worse, will deny Christ .
