Shirley gives a corporate word for us to ask God to resurrect the vision He gave us.  Do not ask amiss, but ask Him “what” to ask for, “why” we are asking and “what” we are to do to facilitate the process.

James 4:3 (AMP) You do ask [God for them] and yet fail to receive, because you ask with wrong purpose and evil, selfish motives. Your intention is [when you get what you desire] to spend it in sensual pleasures.

Shirley gives a critical message for our times about the truth of the Father, Son & Holy Spirit and how we need to look to God for our leadership and not to a man. (See parts 1, 2 & 3 below)

Shirley urges us “Don’t be jealous of the gifts…We need each other” and “prefer one another”!

I hear the Lord saying “Shed the past of the old coat that doesn’t fit you. Shed the past like an old coat that is too tight, all worn out and no longer has warmth. Take it off and shed it like a skin that doesn’t fit you any longer”, say the Lord. “Take it off; let it drop to the floor because I want to put a new covering upon you. Warm! Full of life! Fits perfectly! It fits you in every part of your life. Shed the old. Come into the new. No longer seeing Me in the light of how the world sees Me. For the church world at large sees Me as someone who is no longer protecting, and nurturing and providing or strengthening or healing” and I say to you “see Me with the eyes of understanding. I’ll open up your eyes and you will see Me for who I am. For My protection, My provision, My strength, My Grace, My mercy is in alignment for you. Take off the old skins, they don’t fit you any longer. Step out of them and step into the new shoes that I have for you. That will take you down the new path in this season that I’ve ordained for you to walk in” says the Lord. “A path of progress and path of TRUE prosperity that can only come from the Lord God. For I the Lord God choose to bless you.”
“Take the blinders off; let them drop off of you. And open up your eyes to see; to see Me in the light of My Glory. And see who I really am. And hear what the Holy Spirit is saying in this hour. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Holy Spirit is saying. For I’m good and I’m just and I’m righteous. And I’m fair. And I’m STILL the Redeemer. And I will redeem back to My people what they forfeited in this past season. But you’ll have to pick up what you’ve laid down. Pick up what you’ve laid down and I’ll breathe on it and “life” it. And it will carry the prosperity upon it. And it will be “life” from the Holy Spirit so there will be nothing wasted. And there will be no losses, because in the Lord, there are no losses… only gain.” Thank you Jesus, Thank you Father, Thank you Lord!

Corporate Exhortation March 6, 2012

And the Lord began to speak to me and He said “You are alive.  Get up and do what I’ve called you to do.  You’re alive.  You’re well.  You’re called by My name.  You’re redeemed.  You’re covered by the blood.  You’re stirred up.  You’re anointed.  I’ve appointed you.  I’m sending you.  I’m directing you.  You are not dead, you are alive.  Why are you are you lying there in dead circumstances when I have resurrected you to eternal life?  I’ve covered you with My blood.  I’ve given you everything you need.  I say GET UP and roll up your mat..roll up your mat.  You’re well.  YOU’RE ALIVE!  Go forth and do the work of the work that I gave you!”  says the Lord.

John 5: 5-8 (GNT) A man was there who had been sick for thirty-eight years. Jesus saw him lying there, and he knew that the man had been sick for such a long time; so he asked him,  Do you want to get well? ⁷  The sick man answered, Sir, I don’t have anyone here to put me in the pool when the water is stirred up; while I am trying to get in, somebody else gets there first. Jesus said to him, Get up, pick up your mat, and walk.
