HERE COMES THE BRIDE
The Holy Spirit gave me a powerful prophetic word this week. I believe this word is going to bring restoration, healing and deliverance to countless people around the world. Those of you who have become dismayed will receive a fresh touch from God. Some will receive a life transforming impartation and an encounter with Jesus as you receive a revelation of who you are in Him.
The Holy Spirit showed me a bride that had been burdened down by the weight of the world. Despite the love and support of her husband, she still felt alone and estranged from him. Although fear and trauma left her feeling overwhelmed and helpless, she wasn’t going to let that keep her down.
She was determined to restore her relationship with him and enjoy intimate times once again. She then began to think about her Covenant with him, and how God joined them together as one. She remembered who she was, and a fire rose up on the inside of her. A new zeal stirred in her heart. She got up with a new strength to rise above the challenges and emerge even stronger than before.
Don’t let her appearance fool you, she may appear to be down and out, stressed and frail, but she has incredible resilience in the face of adversity. Her tenacity will propel her in the direction of her destiny. She is a warrior at heart, yet gentle in spirit. She knows that she is called to do great things for the Lord and nothing will stop her from pursuing His plan. She will rise again.
Several years ago the Lord gave me a word about three types of brides. The first bride was the radiant bride, the second bride was the runaway bride and the third bride was the sleeping bride. The radiant bride, was as a wise virgin who kept her lamp filled with fresh oil until her bridegroom came. The runaway bride, was the bride became fearful and ran away from the call of God on her life.
The sleeping bride, was the bride who grew tired of waiting on her bridegroom and fell asleep before he arrived. The Lord wants to raise up a radiant bride for this end time season. He’s looking for those who will serve Him with an uncompromised heart. He will place His anointing on them without measure and equip them to be used in signs and wonders in the day to come. They will accomplish great things for His kingdom.
The LORD says of His Glorious Bride:
“My bride has arrived. She is radiant, and she is arrayed in My Glory. She is pure and virtuous and set apart from the world. She will not allow herself to be defiled as she walks in holiness with garments of white without spot or wrinkle. I have placed My signet ring upon her finger and clothe her in My anointing. She is a carrier of My presence and she releases My glory wherever she goes. The atmosphere changes when she walks into a room.
Darkness instantly flees as My glorious light illuminates from her. Her relationship with Me is secure, and she would never consider another love. She knows the depth of My love for her and therefore she walks in confidence, trust and perfect peace. She is adorned with robes of righteousness because she is a woman of honor and integrity. She enters My chambers daily with great expectation because she has won My heart.
I continually teach her My ways because she has found favor in My sight. She is unique and she has My approval because she knows what is rightfully hers. She is not conformed to this world, because her mind is transformed. She knows that she is not perfect, but her desire is to please Me. She carries fresh oil at all times and her lamp never goes out.
She is determined and victorious and never grows weary in well doing. She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come. She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue. She is compassionate and reaches out to help the poor. She looks much deeper within a person rather than judge them by their outward appearance. She is not prejudice and will never disrespect someone because of their nationality or race.
She treats both the same the rich and the poor but resists the proud and the arrogant. She loves the sinner but hates their sin. Her frequency in the fiery furnace has made her stronger each time, and she now reaches out to rescue those who are entrapped. She will go out of her way for the one who is lost, and will comfort those who are considered outcasts. She will never turn away those who are rejected and scorned but will always befriend them into her life.
I have raised her to beauty from ashes, so that she could relate to those who are afflicted and bring joy to those who mourn. Don’t let her gentleness fool you because she is strong and very courageous. Don’t let her appearance fool you because she is also a warrior. She is tenacious in warfare and won’t back down when the enemy confronts her. The evil one has nothing in her because she knows the authority that she has in My name.
Nations take heed to her words, because she has My consent to speak as she trumpets My voice with clarity and accuracy. The kingdom of darkness trembles at the words of her mouth because they are attuned with My voice. Her words are not compromised, and she is never in competition or rivalry. She understands My Covenant, therefore she speaks with boldness. She is not affected by bad reports and is not moved by what she hears.
She pays no attention to a suffered wrong and she is not easily offended because she has a heart of forgiveness. She is a watchman on the wall, ready to intercede for the needs that come her way. She knows that I hear every request as she comes boldly before My throne of grace. You will walk in a manner worthy of My Glory. Enter into the place that I have perfected for you My bride. Enter into this season with great expectation My lover, My Bride,” says the LORD.
Proverbs 31:25-26
She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come. She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue,
2 Corinthians 11:2
For I am jealous for you with godly jealousy. For I have betrothed you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ
Revelation 21:2.
Then I, John, saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband
