The Voice of One Crying Out in the Wilderness - Diane Gowaty

Many may be feeling the effects of an isolating spirit keeping them away from community in the church. And their children need this broken off too! It's also happening in the workplace and in schools too! It's not fear of man, it's not even necessarily hurt in relationships, it's fear of commitment to community for many reasons, like not being sure if you can trust people or fit in or wondering do they match your expectations and beliefs or feeling ready to handle the weightiness of it all and going deep, and on and on! I am seeing now eyes wide open to this scheme of the enemy to keep people isolated and away from gathering in community in the church body! Wow! Maybe past experiences, disappointments, confusion, hurts but also getting into the thick of relationship - wow !! This generation needs healing for this!! Fear of commitment to relationship!! Jesus we are listening! We receive more Lord for ourselves and our children

May those who love Him be like the rising of the sun in its might. Judges 5:31b He is rising upon many of us as the Lord of Hosts, mighty in battle, with a two-edged sharp sword! He wants to use you to tell everyone who He really is, so everyone everywhere will know that He is Yahweh, the one and only true God, and there is no other! Isaiah 45:6.

There might be something that the Lord wants you to venture into but it may be the one thing you feel least qualified to do! He wants you to trust Him fully even when it's something out of your comfort zone!

The Father made it clear that it was not good for man to be alone, and yet we find ourselves spending time with Him one on one, thinking this is His preference. This podcast is meant to inspire and rekindle desire in you for a mate. Be blessed, as you pursue the first commandment to multiply, take dominion, and subdue!

Many of us may find ourselves so busy working , but we long to sit at the feet of Jesus. What's happening here? Why did we suddenly get thrown into the workplace? Listen as I share about ministering into the Lord in a different way that is powerful!

So many of us are so tired all the time! We are busy working single parents! How can we get in the “secret place”? In this episode, I share my testimony and struggles to make time for the Lord.

Thy Will be done

We are a unique group with unique challenges. Take a listen to hear what this group is all about on Facebook and come join in to the conversations!

Many of us desire to stay in a season of hiding and prayer in our secret places unto the Lord. But He has more for you! We were commanded in Genesis to multiply, take dominion and subdue! Jesus continues with the orders when He commands us to go out into the world and preach the gospel, heal the sick, cleanse the lepers and cast out demons! How many of you understand that you cannot do that from the secret place!! Lol Fulfill the ENTIRE WILL for your life! Go out and become a hero of faith in the name of Jesus!

Many of us may be feeling like we are going through the worse time of crushing and pressing from all sides in trial and tribulations but I have an encouraging word for you! We see in the death of Jesus, just as the olive and the grape are crushed and pressed to release the oil and the wine, so we, too, will experience the same to prove our faith and hope! It's through this crushing and pressing that to power of the Holy Spirit is seen and released in, upon and through us! Psalm 8 & 9 were written by David during intense times of suffering. 1 Peter 1:6 In this [future salvation] we greatly rejoice, even though now for a little while, if necessary, you have been distressed by various trials so that the proof of your faith, being more precious than gold which is perishable, even though tested by fire, may be found to result in praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ!

In Matthew 18:18-18, Jesus says, “Receive this truth: Whatever you forbid on earth will be considered to be forbidden in heaven, and whatever you release on earth will be considered to be released in heaven. Again, I give you an eternal truth: If two of you agree to ask God for something in a symphony of prayer, my heavenly Father will do it for you. For wherever two or three come together in honor of my name, I am right there with them!” Nothing will be impossible for you when you pray together in unity! We are in Genesis at the Tower of Babel project that was underway because of the power of agreement and unity in language. We have that same power restored to us through our heavenly prayer language! Just allow the Holy Spirit to make utterances unto the Father in heaven, and watch the power of unity of language in prayer come alive in your own life!

Many of us love to enjoy His Presence in the Secret Place and in our corporate meetings getting all we can! He is calling you out now to give it away!! So can all you get and then open a a can of whooop out there in the deepest darkest places! I promise you there is a joy and power like you've never known that's yours for the having!!!

In Song of Solomon, the greatest love story, He writes, “Let me hear your voice from the garden, my love” and we see how important it is to hear the voice of the Lord. It gives us the assurance of His love and Presence in our lives! I want to testify that there is no greater feeling of intimacy than communication! Listen and be encouraged to seek His voice so you can feel a commitment like no other.

We are in no lack of getting prophetic words spoken over us and hearing the voice of the Lord but we are lacking in the moving out and forward in them. He is inviting us to GO FORTH and move with Him. You will see your words come to life as you go and you will be given the strength and knowledge you need as you step out in faith. Stop waiting for more confirmation and prophecy to encourage you to go forth! Be bold in this season and move out into what He has said. In James He days, Show me your faith apart from your works, and I will show you my faith by my works. In 2 Corinthians He says, For we walk by faith, not by sight! In John He tells us, You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide, so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you! So GO BOW AND BEAR FRUIT in The Name of Jesus!

On this special day of April 9, I remember my anniversary with the Lord of a healing and my baptism in the Holy Spirit. These special days allow for us to get into an alignment with the angelic, glory realm of His will, that aligns with the book he has written for us long ago. In this open portal moments, we need to press in and stand for what is ours in Him. John 17 is about those He has given us “Father, I have manifested who you really are and I have revealed you[e] to the men and women that you gave to me.[f] They were yours, and you gave them to me, and they have fastened your Word firmly to their hearts.... For all who belong to me now belong to you. And all who belong to you now belong to me as well, and my glory is revealed through their surrendered lives.... So I ask that by the power of your name, protect each one that you have given me, and watch over them so that they will be united as one, even as we are one. 12 While I was with these that you have given me,[k] I have kept them safe by your name that you have given me. And now I dedicate myself to them as a holy sacrifice so that they will live as fully dedicated to God and be made holy by your truth.”

The Father's been laying on my heart that He is desiring to prepare His children for more power. Through intimacy in the secret place prepares us for more than just enjoying our relationship with us. Through a vision I saw my feet strapped with shoes for battle! Psalm 92:10 My horn you have exulted like a wild ox, and I have been anointed with fresh oil. The oil of intimacy is poured upon us in our intimate time of prayer in the secret place with Him. But why are we anointed with oil? This verse goes on to say, My eye has seen my desire on my enemies, my ears hear my desire on the wicked that rise up against me. So here we see that after we receive the oil, we experience the persecution, so the oil was given for the persecution that was ahead. Jesus days in John, If the world hates you, you know that it hated Me before it hated you. You are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world. If they persecuted Me they will also persecute you. In Acts 4, we see Peter experiences persecution after healing the beggar, which was a result of the power that flowed from him after knowing Jesus. The disciples prayed for more power after being persecuted, and they received another infilling to receive boldness. This level of boldness is what we need in persecution! Cry out for more boldness to speak His Word in Power! Acts 5:12, many signs and wonders were done! That's the result of all of this! Through this deeper level of intimacy, we receive power to be His witness to see ALL healed and set free. Jeremiah 31:9 says, with weeping they will come and I will make them to walk on a straight path and they will not stumble. Persecution, then Power! Acts 5:13, we see that as they were in one accord, none of the people dared to join them. Why not? Only those who are prepared for the persecution will dare to walk in this POWER!! Who's ready? Will you follow Him down the narrow path? It will cost you, but you will see multitudes added unto the Lord's kingdom!

My heart's cry is to see more in the spirit realm, but why? It all begins with intimacy with Jesus through His Spirit. Our personal insights with Him is where we have the greatest understanding. Listen to my personal testimony when I was healed and felt the weighted Presence on my shoulders, the Holy Spirit's touch, a mantle of intimacy, when He called me into an intimate secret time of waiting upon Him in His Presence alone. This led into my desire to read His Word, having more dreams, visions, and revelations, overcoming of sin, hearing His audible voice, and being empowered to go out to be His witness. As we continue to spend time with Him in prayer and in His Word will become more like Him, being pure as He is pure. By spending time with Him, He purifies us which empowers us stronger and stronger to live a pure life. I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you will be clean; I will cleanse you from all your impurities and from all your idols. I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. And I will put my Spirit in you and move you to follow my decrees and be careful to keep my laws. Ezekiel 36:25-27 Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will SEE God. Matthew 5:8 We get pure in the secret place in intimacy with Him, and then we will desire to see Him and we will see Him in our life and in other's around us. He will cause us to see Him in everything. He will desire you to go deeper into the seer realm to see Him here on this Earth! Through the power of the Holy Spirit, you are pure in heart which empowers you to SEE Him so He can speak to us to use us for service to release other from bondage unto salvation. Purification for imPact!

In Leviticus 24:1-2, the Lord teaches us about bringing pure oil to make the lamps burn continually.  The olives are first picked then crushed into a paste so the oil can come out.  He asks us to be pure as olive oil after being pressed through trials and tribulations, just as Jesus was crushed on the cross that gave way to the ushering in of the Holy Spirit and Power.  Press into Him, release the oil, and be empowered with the Holy Spirit in your intimate Secret Place with Him so you can walk out of that time with Him in Power!  Once we are purified, we are able to share His manna as we are prepared into the actual manna for others to eat of.  We are the living Word! His letter written for others to read, not written with ink or on tablets of stone, but on tablets of flesh.  In Leviticus 2, He instructs the Israelites on the grain offering  that is of fine flour with oil and frankincense burned on the alter in the fire, or tribulation, as an offering unto the Lord.  This is us being offered up as manna. We are this grain offering when we surrender unto Him as He makes us as fine flour and burns us with fire as He purifies us in His Presence. Press in to Him! Fresh oil will be poured out upon you and you will be as manna offered up for others to consume of Him in you as you become like Him.  He burns away all the impurities and we become a most holy offering unto the Lord, a holy fragrance.  Preach His Word as living Manna from heaven as a living epistle. 

Listen as I share about a vision I had in which I saw a horned ox ahead and stumps in my way that needed pulled out so I could run after the ox! The ox anointing, the sacrificial ox anointing, the anointing for service, is available for us all if we want to work hard to get all the obstacles out of the way! But You have exalted my horn like that of the wild ox; I have [a]been anointed with fresh oil. Psalm 92:10 He draws us unto Him and we run after Him. He is so good.

In the book of Haggai, the people of the Lord were neglecting the rebuilding of His temple. We know that prophets were sent to tell the people the heart of the Lord for His people. Haggai was sent to warn them. The Lord wants us to rebuild our temples, our bodies, by spending time in His Presence, reading His Word, worshiping Him, and in prayer. He also wants us to focus on the building of His ekklesia, His church. Many of us want nice houses, but what about His house? If we continue to neglect His house, we will never have enough no matter how hard we work. This is a spiritual and financial principle that we must understand and we must obey His word to BUILD HIS HOUSE!

1 Corinthians 9:10 says that He who supplies seed for sowing will reap in the harvest. It was written so that we would understand that the one spiritually “plowing” and spiritually “treading out the grain” also labors with the expectation of enjoying the harvest. (TPT) Everything we have is SEED! Money, yes, but also, your time, your children, your home, your interests. Everything is a resource for Him to use and we are to sow it and not hold it back from Him. It is not ours to hold. In Malachi 1, we see the sin the sin of the priests who were offering to the Lord the lame and blemished offerings, not their best. They were getting complacent of their service and offering. Whatever we bring unto the Lord, He has given to us first and all He ask is that we give the firstfruits back to Him. Give what you love the most to Him with no holding back, and He will bless it above and beyond all that you could imagine because all that you given in His name carries power! Cursed be the swindler who sacrifices their blemished animals unto the Lord, so give your best in the name of Jesus and receive the promise for your harvest to be increased! Glory be unto God!

He is our helper for winning lost souls. In John He writes, But if I do not go away, the Helper will not come, but when He comes, He will convict the world of righteousness, sin, and judgement. Convict concerning sin means that the Holy Spirit in us makes others feel the weightiness of the wrongdoings in their life. Unto righteousness means that they see Jesus and have that opportunity to choose Him. The ruler has been judged means that whatever it is they have surrendered to unto death, pales in comparison to Him and they are given the chance to repent in this moment just by coming into contact with one carrying the Presence of the Lord! This is our job on this earth as we walk with Him! Go forth and bring His Presence and bring the Good News to the afflicted and set the prisoners free.

We have all been given promises, but we just can't seem to remember anything good or we don't see words we have received coming to fulfillment. In His Word He tells us to spend time with Him and wait upon Him so His Spirit will remind you of all things. David admonishes us to forget not His benefits. Taking communion, His bread, His Word, the Bread of Life, we do in remembrance of Him. This will trigger His promises. Break into the Bread and consume it. He will bring His promises back into our memory. In John, He says the when the Helper comes, the Holy Spirit, He will bring to our remembrance all things. Get into His Presence. I bless your memory in Him and with Him in the name of Jesus!

Prompted by a dream, I pressed into the Holy Spirit for understanding and revelation and He showed me change is needful! As we feed on the Word of God, He removes from us things that we don't need. Sometimes, we are not ready to part with certain things He wants to remove so we might hide from Him. But the longer we hold on to that which He is removing from our lives, the more it begins to interfere with our discernment and growth. We can lose our appetite for more. Let go of that which so easily holds us back and be free to grow in Him.

Pray for our enemies? Really, God? Only with Holy Power and Presence can we understand His compassion for others, especially our enemies. When His Presence comes, we can truly release any obstacles to prayer with groanings and utterances too deep for words. In Matthew, John tells his disciples He who is coming after him is greater. and that He will baptize them with the Holy Spirit and Power. The threshing fork is in His hand. What did he mean by that? Well there needs to be a separation of the wheat and chaff, and in the context of prayer, only when our flesh is completely removed from the past experiences, can we truly have compassion in the Spirit on our enemies the way He does, and see them healed, delivered and set free. Before Jesus prayed, many times, the Bible says, He had compassion on them first. This is the doorway to seeing powerful miracles! *Previously recorded on 10-15-16

He who sits [enthroned] in the heavens laughs [at their rebellion]; The [Sovereign] Lord scoffs at them [and in supreme contempt He mocks them].

I feel the Open Door is the door of the bondservant and through this portal we have access to heavenly realms from where we can prophesy and see the enemy's lies defeated. We speak with these weapons from heavenly places in Christ. We are needing discerning ears from a place a purity and sanctification in deep intimacy.

Walk in a manner worthy of the call to keep one another walking in humility and showing tolerance for one another in love is for us all at all times. Commentary on Ephesians 4.

Listen and be free.

In Isaiah 61, he declares that the Spirit of the Lord is upon me, and Jesus quoted this portion of scripture as he stood in the temple teaching before the teachers in it's fulfillment. As you pray this verse, believe and get ready for the Spirit of the Lord to be upon you for ministry. He is IN you and He will rest UPON you! Luke 4:18-20 The Passion Translation (TPT) 18–19 “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, and he has anointed me to be hope[a] for the poor, freedom for the brokenhearted, and new eyes[b] for the blind, and to preach to prisoners,[c] ‘You are set free!' I have come to share the message of Jubilee,[d] for the time of God's great acceptance[e]has begun.”[f] 20 After he read this he rolled up the scroll, handed it back to the minister, and sat down. Everyone stared at Jesus, wondering what he was about to say. Isaiah 61 (NASB) The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me, Because the LORD has anointed me To bring good news to the afflicted; He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, To proclaim liberty to captives And freedom to prisoners; To proclaim the favorable year of the LORD And the day of vengeance of our God; To comfort all who mourn, To grant those who mourn in Zion, Giving them a garland instead of ashes, The oil of gladness instead of mourning, The mantle of praise instead of a spirit of fainting. So they will be called oaks of righteousness, The planting of the LORD, that He may be glorified.

There will be those times when you will be in the Presence of the Lord in the Secret Place in a season of consecration when you will hear Him drawing you to Come Away with Him. Then He will lead you out to use you powerfully using all the gifts He has given you as you follow Him out to work with Him where He leads you. He will give you the desires of your heart in this place and on this walk. "Jesus said to them, 'Come away with me. Let us go alone to a quiet place and rest for a while.' Mark 6:31 "Come away with me, my love." Song of Solomon 8:14 " Walk with me and work with me - watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won't lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. " Matthew 11:29

1 Corinthians 13:13 "And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love." The enemy knows that there is great power in having faith, continuing to hope and loving those around us, so if he can distract us away from maintaining these three , then we are easily defeated and our purpose is not fulfilled. Stand strong against anything that comes against you and be free . "Hope deferred makes the heart sick but a longing fulfilled is the tree of life!" Proverbs 13:12

So many of us have no problem making relationships, but oftentimes we lack the confidence in maintaining them. The Lord may be giving you a valuable word for a valued friend. While being careful to not overstep boundaries and misrepresent His Word, be free to express your heart to those He has given you. Build trust in bringing Truth!

Topic: PRAYER, INTERCESSION As I read this verse, my Spirit, Soul and Body leaped for joy! Our prayers are more powerful and effective than we could ever imagine! Listen and know that when you pray, someone somewhere is being saved, healed, delivered, & set free! Psalm 126, from The Passion Translation, translated by Brian SImmons Restored 126 A song of the stairway 1 It was like a dream come true when you freed us from our bondage and brought us back to Zion! 2 We laughed and laughed and overflowed with gladness. We were left shouting for joy and singing your praise. All the nations saw it and joined in, saying, “The Lord has done great miracles for them!” 3 Yes, he did mighty miracles and we are overjoyed! 4 Now, Lord, do it again! Restore us to our former glory! May streams of your refreshing flow over us until our dry hearts are drenched again. 5 Those who sow their tears as seeds[a] will reap a harvest with joyful shouts of glee. 6 They may weep as they go out carrying their seed to sow, but they will return with joyful laughter and shouting with gladness as they bring back armloads of blessing and a harvest overflowing!
