The Potter_The Cake_The Sheperd - Prophecy Jan 29, 2008 - This was a Personal Word the Lord gave me for a very special Sister: May it Bless you also!

This is a personal prophecy, may it  speaks to you: (permisssion given yo print)

And as I prayed the Lord began to speak to me and this is what He said: My daughter would the clay say to the potter why have you made me this way, would the clay say to the potter I don’t want to be a teacup, I want to be a flower vase? And the Lord says who is in control, is the potter or is the clay? And the Lord says, I, the Master Potter is in control and I make the clay, I form it as I know is best. For the deep things of the depth of creation only the Creator knows.

So now my daughter rethink the situation, should not the clay lie still and say surely the Master Potter knows my frame and knows the way that He is taking me, or should the clay resist? You answer, says the Lord, for you are the clay and I am the Potter, I do know what is best and I do know the way that I am taking you says the Lord God of all heaven and earth.

And the Lord says you are so yielded in so many things and yet in other things you resist being molded, I have seen your tears and they are precious to Me there is not one tear that I do not save and hold in my hand place in a bottle and remember why it fell from your eyes says the Lord. Resist not my workings in your life, sometimes the clay just says no, I don’t want to be made like that. And I like a loving parent says yes, I know what is best for you my dear child. So weep and weep and allow me to break you until you are solidly limp in my hand that I the potter can make you into my image, as the things you have asked of me and the desires of your heart don’t just naturally come about but they come through the valley and the mountain tops, and you say yes but how long Lord are we in the valley? Sometimes long and sometimes not, but I have good news for you though you have been resistant in small areas, My grace is sufficient for you. I will see you through, I have a great plan for you and you have been through 3 years of molding and making, working in you, to will and to do of My good pleasure, for that is where your greatest joy is says the Lord.

This is a year of great favor says the Lord, this is the year of break through says the Lord, this is the year of new beginnings, my people are tried and tested in many ways and you have been tried and tested says the Lord, the way has been hard, the loneliness, the aloneness, even sometimes the distance you feel from Me is greater than you think you can bear at times, but I would say to you my daughter, as I say in My word, “when you are weak than are you strong”, and in my word it says I will have a peculiar people, my people do not think like the world and they do not act or do like the world and they do not look like the world, because I make my children a shinning and bright light.

I have a people who are refined by fire, I have a people who have counted the cost says the Lord. And during that refining process they feel abandoned and left alone, without hope says the Lord. But I will never allow you to believe a lie for you have not been abandoned and you do have hope. I am creating in you the things needed to “comfort ye, comfort ye my people”, says the Lord. I am creating in you a perseverance that not many have says the Lord, for I have found you faithful and true says the Lord, one who will honor and please me, one who will walk close says the Lord. This is your year, and in this year of great favor, in this year of refining and preparation, do not be discouraged for I the Lord have all things in control, not one hair on your head will be disturbed through the valleys, through the desert places for I have a plan and a purpose for you in what you think is as “I am too old” I say, I saved you for “for such a time as this“.

There is ministry that will come forth from you says the Lord before your days are done, don’t look at your age or your lack of desire for as you have no idea what ministry is, it is not as the world has taught says the Lord, and you know that to a degree from the things you have learned from Me says the Lord I am the one who has taught you says the Lord, I am your teacher and your guide. When I deal with your heart on different issue you can says yes or you can say no, but as I wait for the clay to soften and bend with Me says the Lord, the longer you can be in the valley or the wilderness. There are things I want to remove from your life and there are things I want to place in your life, for there are many in this world that will need you, will need your comfort, will even need the strength of your words says the Lord for I am making your words My words, and I have given you wisdom that not all of my children have, it is the gift of wisdom, says the Lord.

And the Lord says I see it all, I see your agony, I see your tears, but the Lord says preparation is not always an easy process, but needful says the Lord. If you are going to bake a cake do you follow instructions or do you just throw anything you want in that bowl and bake a beautiful cake? If the Master Potter is going to bring His children forth as pure gold, and use them in the pure gold state, He must place the right ingredients in their life at the right time, the temperature must be correct and the timing must be precise in how long they are left in a valley or left in the wilderness, or even how long they are left on the mountain top…as even on the mountaintop it is dangerous to be left too long, for in this body of flesh it is weak and there dwells no good thing in your flesh, says the Lord. I am the good shepherd and I watch after my sheep, I keep them on the pathway they are to go and if they get just too close to a cliff, or they fall into a ditch I go and I pick them up and place them back on the pathway. I care, I love them, I love you and not one hair of your head will be singed in the trials of this life in the tribulations of this life, says the Lord. Know that I choose to bring you forward to work in the great harvest, you do not see the picture, but soon the Lord says I am going to reveal things to you that you have not understood. If you can take it a day at a time, if you can learn to trust Me moment by moment, I am always near to you says the Lord.

There is an exceleration of time coming soon, says the Lord, and it will be an exceleration of growth and maturity in Me says the Lord. Where years ago it took a lifetime to learn what I am now teaching my children. I can and will place within you growth that comes straight from the throne room, like a download into your spirit says the Lord. Open your mind to these things I am revealing to you right now says the Lord, for now has the time come that my army, whom the world has not even seen yet will see quickly at the command of My voice and Mine only says the Lord. Some of you have seen warriors here and there, but even My own army does not know what I have prepared for the future war and end of the age, great and mighty will be the harvest.

Eye has not seen and ear has not heard what great things the Lord has prepared for them that love Him, them that are looking for His appearing and His return. Look up My child, for all that I have is your inheritance. Do not doubt says the Lord, when the clouds of darkness pass over, when you feel darkness about you, know within your heart, and this too will pass. Amen and Amen
