***Prophetic Word to the Body This Season***

The Glory Carriers

This season has been one of the hardest seasons we have faced as the body of Christ. The Lord is not only giving everyone new blueprints all at once, he is calling all of us to die to our flesh. The Lord spoke to me and said, "For all of those who walk all the way through the fire in this season, those will be the ones who carry My glory." The Lord made it clear that the one's who carry the glory must die to themselves and go all the way through to the end.

In John 11:3-4 Lazarus a friend of Jesus is sick. "Therefore the sisters sent to Him, saying, "Lord, behold, he whom you love is sick." When Jesus heard that, He said, "This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified through it." We know the story. Jesus left Lazarus to die on purpose. He even said in John 11:4 that this was "for the Glory of God.." In this season we have all faced much testing. We have all been through the fire and are still in it. Some have faced so much opposition and testing that they have nearly fainted.

As we continue to walk in this season so many things are being dealt with. The places in our hearts left void of the character of Jesus are being dealt with. As John 11 continues, we see that Jesus arrives and Lazarus has been dead for four days. John 11:40- "Did I not say to you that if you would believe you would see the glory of God?" Have you felt like you are dying this season? Did you cry out to the Lord on what seemed to be your deathbed and felt abandoned? Did you loose hope? Did you wonder where was Jesus your lover and your friend? Brothers and sisters, if this is you then take heart and know this, "For I consider that the suffering of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us." Romans 8:18

The mandate for this season is death. Yes it is to truly to die to ourselves and to our flesh so that we may rise up and carry the glory of God! If you are willing to do this, you will hear the words. "Loose him, and let him go." When Jesus called, "Lazarus, come forth!" Lazarus came out with grave clothes and his face was wrapped with a cloth. He was then loosed and was sent forth carrying the glory of God.

Dont give up friends, don't quit now. The pain has been much, and relief is long overdue. It has been hard and you have faced a fierce season, but you will make it and you will overcome. You will soon hear those words from our Lord Jesus, "Loose him and let him go!"

New Assignments and Alignments being Fulfilled:

The Lord has specifically released blue prints to the entire body all at once in this season. This is suppose to cause mass confusion in the camp of the enemy. These are the new alignments and the new assignments that He has spoken of. Many people are being moved into new ministries, new jobs, given new coverings, and even moving to new states. This is the strategy of the Lord to release mass chaos and confusion into the enemy's camp. Since the body has been going through much fire and many have even felt faint from this fierce season of testing, many are questioning there paths.

One of the hardest part of new seasons and new alignments within the assignments, are trusting that people are actually following the Lord. Many have been moved around and as a result it's caused much pain for these people. Some are being accused of church hoping and even disobedient. However, this is all part of the blueprints from Heaven. Some think that this is betrayal and rejection, however its the Lord positioning people strategically.

This is a very exciting time for the body of Christ and we must learn to let people go and love them during these transitions. The hardest part about any transition is saying goodbye to the ones we love. It's so hard to let them go and sometimes it feels like betrayal. We must carry on knowing that these unusual strategies are the Lord and that we are all on the same team.
In John 11:25-26 Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life; he who believes in me will live even if he dies, and everyone who lives and believes in Me will never die." Do you believe this?"

This is the cost this season. This is the price we are being asked to walk through. This is how to go from death to life, dying to ourselves, and how we will soon carry the glory of God! Be encouraged this season, "For all of those who walk all the way through the fire in this season, those will be the ones who carry My glory." Don't give up, don't quit now. You will soon hear the words, "loose him and let him go!" You are becoming God's glory carriers.
