DEFINING MOMENTS by BILL BURNS
We are in a time of change that will come into clarity in “Defining Moments” of
inspiration.
The Trumpet by Bill Burns: Watch for defining moments that break forth on your
spirit. Watch for them, for they shall come to you. There will also be vanishing
points if you do not receive the turning points that I am giving in this season.
If you choose not to seek after Me and listen to Me, the opportunities that I am
giving you to arise and go forth will vanish, and your part in that will be
lost. My people, rise up and hear and believe that this season will present many
defining moments.
We, the people of the Lord, go through times of defining moments, and we believe
we are in one of those times. Circumstances will bring opportunities to make
quality decisions that determine and perhaps even change our destiny.
Defining moments, are points in time when our choices have greater and more
powerful consequences that shape our lives. These are times of discovery, when
the light of revelation comes, and events change the course of our lives
forever.
It is important that we discern the will of God and move in the path that will
be most beneficial to us in light of His purposes and our destiny.
Times of definition will be present in areas of work, business, ministry,
relationships, financial decisions, and plans for the future. Our choices are
taking on unusual significance. We must consider our motives, and choose God
every time – life, righteousness, truth, justice, peace, love, generosity. Trust
God to show the way -- where to take the next step.
Philippians 4: 6-7 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and
supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the
peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and
minds through Christ Jesus.
Do not be moved by assumptions, pride and over-confidence, rather than by the
Spirit of the Lord.
Psalms 19:13 Keep back Your servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not
have dominion over me. Then I shall be blameless, and I shall be innocent of
great transgression.
The prophetic word is revealing a new spiritual habitation and purpose.
Small Straws: Be aware that your spiritual atmosphere is charged with
restlessness and a desire for change, and I say to you that you are sensing
changes that are on the horizon. But, it is not yet time for real, productive
change to manifest in your lives. Wait for My timing and leading, for if you
step out too soon to force a transformation it will be by the flesh and out of
the flow of My Spirit, says the Lord. Use this current restlessness to draw
close to Me and be elevated to a new place in the Spirit. Proverbs 16:9 A man’s
heart plans his way, but the LORD directs his steps.
Small Straws: What a strange spiritual atmosphere! As I walked and prayed I
asked the Lord what was up, and this was His answer: You are in a defining
moment. You are crossing a line of demarcation. The countdown has begun and is
marked by this time of silence. You will soon realize that you are on a path of
no return; what's done is done. New developments will suddenly burst upon the
scene and create a rippling effect around the world. Things will never be the
same, but you must not be afraid. I am with you, and as you seek My face and
listen for My voice I will give you wisdom and direct your steps. Let go of
petty issues, and refuse to be small-minded. Be done with things that are
inconsequential. Deuteronomy 31:6 "Be strong and of good courage, do not fear
nor be afraid of them; for the LORD your God, He is the One who goes with you.
He will not leave you nor forsake you."
The Trumpet: I come to you to take you on a spiritual journey. It is true that
eye has not seen, nor has ear heard of the glory and the wonder that I am about
to bring you into. These times and events have been established on the heavenly
calendar, and they shall proceed and come forth in fullness. Encourage yourself
in the Lord even as David did. Come to a higher place. Come with desire and
anticipation of that which I am about to provide for you and do in you, say the
Lord, for I have sent My Spirit to nurture, teach, and empower you. I have sent
My Spirit to take you on a journey into the fullness of the Kingdom and My
purposes. Enjoy the journey, and your peace shall be established. Psalms 36:8
They are abundantly satisfied with the fullness of Your house, and You give them
drink from the river of Your pleasures.
I say to you, My children, this is the
hour of victory. You will either prepare for victory, or you will later struggle
to obtain dominion. If you will now position yourselves by faith, then all that
is necessary for victory will come to you. But, if you wait until the battle
rages around you, it will be much harder to attain. Arise and receive! Allow the
anointing to come to you that will bring deliverance and renew your spirit. I am
calling to the watchmen to come and establish yourselves on the wall as a
defense against every attack of the enemy. Watchmen, what of the night? Not only
declare what you see in the darkness, but declare that the morning also comes
with the glorious light of the Morning Star to lead, guide and show you the way.
Again, I say, rise up. It is the hour of the warrior, for I have equipped you
for this time so that you shall indeed run to the battle and turn back the
battle at the gate, says the Lord.
I am calling you forth to a new level
of faith and a brand new experience, which shall be called "the dominion of the
Lord." For, I shall establish My dominion in you and through you to be exercised
over your circumstances and over all the places where I send you, where you
work, and where you live. I am the Lord of Hosts, and all the earth is Mine, and
I call you to also have dominion and to reign with Me spiritually. These are the
days of preparation. Renew yourselves. Remove all anxiety, worry, doubt and
unfaithfulness. Place yourself securely in My hand, and I will bring your forth
into that which I have predestined for you. This is the Day of My power, and it
is your heritage to walk in the fullness of it, says the Lord. So, rise up in a
faith that will not be denied and will receive all that I have purposed.
Watch for defining moments.
Defining moments will facilitate your destiny so you must become a watchman who
sees and seizes the moment. The fourth watch watchmen will see in the morning
light of this Day.
