DURABILITY IS BEING DRESSED IN THE RIGHTEOUSNESS of CHRIST JESUS
Durability of My children comes as The Spirit of Truth washes away all fear of the enemy and the lies fall away .
So allow Me to dress you in courage by the washing of My WORD In Spirit and the Truth [ that ] "My Sheep hear My Voice".
John 10:27 27 My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.
Zechariah 3
3 Then [the guiding angel] showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the Angel of the Lord, and Satan standing at Joshua’s right hand to be his adversary and to accuse him.
2 And the Lord said to Satan, The Lord rebuke you, O Satan! Even the Lord, Who [now and habitually] chooses Jerusalem, rebuke you! Is not this [returned captive Joshua] a brand plucked out of the fire?
3 Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments and was standing before the Angel [of the Lord].
4 And He spoke to those who stood before Him, saying, Take away the filthy garments from him. And He said to [Joshua], Behold, I have caused your iniquity to pass from you, and I will clothe you with rich apparel.
5 And I [Zechariah] said, Let them put a clean turban on his head. So they put a clean turban on his head and clothed him with [rich] garments. And the Angel of the Lord stood by.
6 And the Angel of the Lord [solemnly and earnestly] protested and affirmed to Joshua, saying,
7 Thus says the Lord of hosts: If you will walk in My ways and keep My charge, then also you shall rule My house and have charge of My courts, and I will give you access [to My presence] and places to walk among these who stand here.
8 Hear now, O Joshua the high priest, you and your colleagues who [usually] sit before you—for they are men who are a sign or omen [types of what is to come]—for behold, I will bring forth My servant the Branch.
9 For behold, upon the stone which I have set before Joshua, upon that one stone are seven eyes or facets [the all-embracing providence of God and the sevenfold radiations of the Spirit of God]. Behold, I will carve upon it its inscription, says the Lord of hosts, and I will remove the iniquity and guilt of this land in a single day.
10 In that day, says the Lord of hosts, you shall invite each man his neighbor under his own vine and his own fig tree.
Numbers11:29 But Moses replied, "Are you jealous for my sake? I wish that all the LORD's people were prophets and that the LORD would put his Spirit upon them all!"

FIRE BY NIGHT
“Reflections Upon Reflections” [of The Father’s Heart]
....”You, in Your great compassion, did not forsake them in the wilderness; The pillar of cloud did not leave them by day, to guide them on their way, nor the pillar of fire by night, to light for them the way in which they were to go”.... Nehemiah 9:19 NASB

THE MOST IMPORTANT ASPECT OF ENTERING INTO A TRUE AND INTIMATE FELLOWSHIP WITH THE FATHER AND HIS WORD IS THE “INNER CHAMBER”
....”In the morning you hear my voice, O Lord; in the morning I prepare [a prayer, a sacrifice] for You, and watch and wait [for You to speak to my heart]”.... Psalm 5:3 Amplified Translation
....”Cause me to hear your lovingkindness in the morning; for on You do I lean and in You do I trust. Cause me to know the way wherein I should walk, for I lift up my inner self [heart] to You”.... Psalm 143:8 Amplified Translation
....”Remove far from me falsehood and lies....... feed me with the food that is needful for me”.... Proverbs 30:8 The Amplified Translation
It is very, very important for each and every one of us to “let go” of anything that would hinder our receiving a “revelation” of God’s Word [Will] on a continual basis - revelation that is necessary to lead us and guide us and keep us safe in this final hour. We need to have our spiritual “closets cleaned” - in order to have room for the wonderful blessings [empowerments] that our loving Father has for us in this time - blessings that will enable us to glorify Him to a continually greater degree as we enter into the fullness of our precious destiny, in Christ. Because of these things, it is VERY important for EVERY child of God to seek the Father on what the “precise” food [both spiritual and physical] that is “needful” for them is - and, thus, “allow” Him each day [in and by the Holy Spirit] to lead them to the specific portions of His Word - and any other “anointed resources” that would be beneficial for their spiritual growth.
The most important aspect of entering into a true and intimate fellowship with the Father and His Word is the “inner chamber”. This is simply the place wherein we enter into a close and intimate fellowship with Him, and it ALWAYS “begins” in the early morning hours BEFORE the storms of life and the chaos and turmoil of the “world” have an opportunity to overtake us. It is a “quiet” place wherein one is separated from the certain “distractions” that their entrance out into daily activities will bring. This matter of the “inner chamber” is first and foremost a “heart-attitude” - a heart-attitude that can, through a continual acknowledging [in ALL of our ways] of the Father and His Word, cause [empower] us to be continually directed in EVERY aspect of our lives and ministries. This, of course, includes what portions of God’s Word are needful for us to partake of each day.
When one begins the day in the “inner chamber” they will most surely receive there the “food” [and Grace] that is necessary for them - and, thus, as they go out into the day they will have a deep assurance in their heart that they are fully equipped to both handle and overcome ANYTHING that the Evil One attempts to place in their path. This runs hand in hand with the “fatigue” [spiritual and otherwise]problem being experienced in this time by many children of God. I found that when I began to get up earlier and allow the presence of God to flood [saturate] my inner man early in the morning all of the fatigue I was experiencing was replaced with an energy, peace and joy [even in the midst of the most adverse circumstances] that can only be described as God-sent. I cannot possibly describe, adequately, the superabundant “benefits” that come from giving the Father [and His Word] the first part of our day. It is something that has to be “experienced” [not just talked about] by each individual believer.
The Enemy will try anything to keep the children of God out of this place of intimate fellowship with the Father - because it is in this place [the secret place of His Presence] that the “seeds” of “revelation knowledge” are born. Once one begins to gain a continually deeper revelation of who they truly are in Christ [on a daily basis], and also that the Devil is an ALREADY defeated foe, his control over their lives will disappear, and they can begin immediately to live lives that will bear “maximum fruit” for the Church and the Kingdom. It is also in this place of the “inner chamber” that the love of God is continually shed abroad in ones heart - a certain prerequisite to one entering into an “abiding” freedom from fear. Another key aspect of time spent in the “inner chamber” is that there is great healing [and a “divine” {supernatural} restoration] that takes place. As we are faithful to give the Father the first fruits of our day it is certain that it will create an “open door” for us to be strengthened with power [through His Spirit] in our inner man - so that in being rooted and grounded in love we might be filled up to all the fullness of God.
....”For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name, that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with power through His Spirit in the inner man, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; and that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled up to all the fullness of God”.... Ephesians 3:14-19 NASB
