Course Correction

I heard the Lord say that He is making course corrections in people's lives right now. This is a window of time in which the God of Mercy is visiting His people to lead them into the path that He has ordained. Many have either gotten out of correct timing, or we've veered off of our destined path. Even one degree will take us to the wrong destination. These course corrections are vital to our future.

In scripture, we see Saul, soon to be the Apostle Paul, on the road to Damascus to persecute Christians. Jesus suddenly appeared to him, correcting his course and calling him to his Kingdom destiny.

Not long ago, I had a vision in which I was in an open box car with two other people. We were traveling on a train track through beautiful mountains in a foreign country. As we were admiring the scenery, I suddenly realized that we were no longer on the track; it had disappeared. However, the car seemed to maintain stability, and so I relaxed. Soon, though, I sensed that we had picked up speed. Looking ahead, I saw that we were heading straight for a cliff and were powerless to prevent the car from going over the edge. As we were falling to our death, I cried out to the Lord to save us!

The Lord revealed that we had passed from the perfect will of God into the permissible will of God. The permissible will of God led to destruction.

Proverbs 14:12 - "There is a way which seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death."

Chuck Pierce recently reported the following word of the Lord: "This is a reprieve and a ceasing that I am decreeing from heaven..... Ask for a time of ceasing until people can reorder the way that they operate and My kingdom plan will go forth."

This is a time like no other in which we must hear the voice of the Lord and obey His instructions.

Isaiah 30:21 - "And your ears will hear a word behind you, 'This is the way, walk in it', whenever you turn to the right or to the left."

PRAY FOR THE RAIN!

It's time to pray for the rain of the Spirit on all the spiritual seed that has been sown! This is the time of the spring rain, and the Lord instructs us to pray to the Lord of the Harvest for His showers.

Zech.10:1 - Ask rain from the Lord at the time of the spring rain - the Lord who makes the storm clouds; and He will give them showers of rain, vegetation in the field to each man."

The Lord quickened to me that as we pray to Him for the rain, He WILL GIVE THE RAIN for the seed which we have sown, and it will be "rich and plenteous"!

Isa. 30:23 - "Then He will give you rain for the seed which you will sow in the ground, and bread from the yield of the ground, and it will be rich and plenteous. On that day your liestock will graze in a roomy pasture."

The Lord revealed that He was not only bringing a quick harvest from seed sown in January and February of this year, but He is also bringing to fruition many things that have been sown in years past, and which have not yet come to harvest.

This is the time....... This is the season to reap a bountiful harvest. So pray to the Lord of the Harvest! This is an appointed time for harvest. Ask the Lord to send rain to your field and watch as He quickly answers this prayer in ways you can't even imagine.
