The Importance of Faithfulness
Compilation 4 - 01 of The Children of David's pubs on the subject, by http://theaudiokey.com team - July 2019 All prophecies are Jesus speaking unless otherwise indicated.
Your faithfulness makes my heart leap for joy.
(1)
The Lord’s Idea of Success What is success in My eyes? What do you receive eternal rewards for? What is considered "success" in My Kingdom? What is true accomplishment for Me? How do I measure it? What is most important to Me? It's very simple: love and faithfulness. I gave a pretty clear answer in the Bible when I said, through Paul, "One thing is required of a servant, and that is to be found faithful." That pretty much sums it up. Faithfulness to Me, and faithfulness to love--that's the true measure of success in My eyes. Faithfulness in doing what I have called you to do, in the way that I have called you to do it, and in the role I have called you to play. (2)
(Dad speaking:) The Lord's idea of success is what? It's all in the simple verse, "Well done, thou good and faithful servant; enter thou into the joy of thy Lord." That's the Lord's idea of success--being faithful in the calling and ministry He's given you to do. (3)
So if you want true success, be faithful!
(4)
Little Things (Dad speaking:) Little things are very important to the Lord, because when you're obedient and faithful in the little things, this is a sign of your love for Him. (5)
These are the days of doing small things, but in the days to come, those who've been faithful to do whatever I asked of them, no matter how small, I'll be able to trust with even greater things. (6)
All the little jobs you do every day, the same routine jobs, are very pleasing to Me. I see your faithfulness, and it makes Me very happy. Those who carry on in the routine jobs with little change and variety in their day, but who carry on faithfully and responsibly, are great in My eyes and will receive a great reward. (7)
4
Examples of Faithfulness Consider My great men who have walked the face of the Earth, and the great and mighty things that they have done. You look at their greatness and the way they were so mightily used of Me, that they were My mouthpieces, they were My Word, they wrought miracles, they brought forth great wonders, they delivered great messages and they accomplished My will greatly. Why could they do these things? Because they were faithful in that which was least. Because I tested them and I tried them and I proved them, and they came through as faithful men, as obedient men, as yielded men. The things you read about them were the outcroppings, the peaks, the highlights. They had these because day by day, hour by hour, minute by minute, they obeyed Me, they followed Me, they served Me. They learned in the little things so that they would be faithful in the big things. (8)
(Dad speaking:) Look how long the Lord worked in Abraham's life. He made a promise to him that his seed would be as the stars of the sky in multitude, but he was nearly a hundred years old before his wife Sarah first got pregnant and had Isaac. But Abraham endured, even undergoing the test on Mount Moriah when the Lord tested him to see if he'd give up Isaac, and he became the father of faith, an example of faithfulness and endurance. The Lord said that "after he had patiently endured, he received the promise." And what a wonderful promise and victory it was! (9)
Look at Joseph and all that the Lord put him through--being sold into slavery, spending a couple of years in prison in Egypt after he was falsely accused by Potiphar's wife, and all that he went through there. That was no picnic. But he stayed true to the Lord, true to his convictions, and when he had to appear before Pharaoh to pass his final test and interpret his dream, he did, and wound up running the kingdom for Pharaoh. Look at the reward he received for his faithfulness! (10)
Although John the Baptist had a glorious ministry of proclaiming and preparing My way, he had to yield to the ministry that I called him to--to be My messenger--and this was not easy for him. It was a sacrifice for him, but he was faithful to My calling and faithful to fulfill the role I called him to play. As a result, he has gone down in history as a man of faith and obedience. (11)
How do you think the martyrs in the Colosseum of Rome felt? My promises must have looked like flat failures in man's eyes in those situations. Yet the martyrs won some of the greatest victories of all time as they simply and humbly remained faithful to the end (Rom.8:36,37). (12)
5
When you think of Joan of Arc, you remember the glorious victories associated with her. But think of the scoffing she faced, the years of giving warnings from Me and having them mocked and ignored, even the battles that were lost and the men who were wounded and killed in battle. She faced times when she did what I told her to do and it didn't play out the way she had hoped. She kept doing My will, even when it didn't seem to be having any effect. She was faithful, and she saw the fulfillment of My promises. (13)
Join My other servants who exercised their faith and stood on their faith in My hall of fame in Hebrews 11--the faithful ones‚ those who were full of faith. Read it often to encourage your faith, dear ones, and claim its promises and the promises I have given you through My Word today. (14)
Be Faithful to Do Your Best If you do your part, if you do your best, if you can stand before Me and say, "I did the best I could. I did Your will, Jesus," that is all that I require of you. (15)
What matters is that you follow Me, that you do those things that I say to do, that you perform those jobs that I give you to do, that you are faithful in all that I have given to you, and that you are yielded to Me and My Spirit, to My calling and to those things that I bring across your path. You may not be a whirling tornado of accomplishments, but (if) you work faithfully, prayerfully, and lovingly, this is what is most important. As you are faithful to do your best for Me no matter what, you can be sure that I will reward you accordingly and bring things into your life that I know will be just what you need to accomplish the purpose I have created you for. (16)
(17)
(18)
(Dad speaking:) God takes care of His Own‚ especially the faithful ones, the diligent and the hard-working and the deserving and the good stewards who work hard at developing and investing their talents where they'll do the most good and get the best returns. (19)
All of you who are still plugging away, faithfully following and faithfully obeying, are My precious pearls of great price, and your rewards in Heaven are awesomely great. Thank you for being such faithful disciples. I don't think you could ever know how much you please Me and how much joy you have brought to My heart through your years of being faithful. (20)

Be Faithful to Take Time with the Lord
Compilation 4 - 02 of The Children of David's pubs on the subject, by http://theaudiokey.com team (All prophecies are Jesus speaking unless otherwise indicated)
Every day, before you do anything else‚ take time with Me. Rest in My arms and hear My Words and let Me speak to your heart about your priorities‚ lead and guide you, remind you, instruct you, and speak to you with My still, small voice. Take time each day to be My channel. Take time each day to hear My Words, to love Me, to rest in Me. Make this your priority. (1)
Do you remember the account from My time on Earth when I was in the back of the ship resting in the midst of a terrible storm (Mark 4:37,38)? I wasn't just sleeping, but I was resting with My Father. I was spending time with Him away from the hustle and bustle of the storm about Me. I knew that My Father was in control. I knew that He would take care of the storm. And I knew that My time with Him was even more important than immediately seeing to the storm and calming it. My attitude was right, My heart was right. I was fully focused on God and He was all that mattered to Me. Even when it seemed as if certain death battered our ship, I was not in a hurry, because My Father had asked Me to spend that time with Him and that was more important. This is why I chided My disciples afterward, saying, "Why are you so fearful? How come you have so little faith?" I was in essence telling them that they too could've calmed the storm, or at least had faith through it, even if I hadn't solved the problem for them. And it's much the same for you, My loves. Regardless of what is happening about you, if I show you to come away and spend that important time with Me, then that is the most important thing you could be doing at that time. I'm in control, and in My time and way I will calm the storms and help you to see to all that needs to get done--once you've been faithful to spend time with Me. (2)
If a child knew that at certain times of the day he could go to see his father, and that his father would dispense into his hand a special gift, the child would be faithful to go unto the father day by day at the specified time. And though ye see not the gift that I will bestow upon you, ye must come in faith, believing that I will bestow upon you that which ye need. For as ye show your love unto Me, so will I bestow upon you My blessings and all that ye need! Though this may seem a sacrifice unto you, to come unto Me and to take a few minutes in praise, in thanksgiving, in adoration, in worship and in affection of the Spirit, I will be well pleased. And it will be My pleasure to give unto you the blessings of My Spirit.
(3)

The touch of My love recreates and gives new life. It breathes fresh vigor into the tired and weary. All it takes to remain full is faithfulness to your times alone with Me, where you retreat to My arms and find Me and My love in all its fullness. Its abundance will never diminish, and it will always be there for you--all you need of it and more. (4)
The more you are praising Me, turning your thoughts into prayers, and faithfully taking your quiet time with Me, the easier it will be for you when you stop for a moment to hear My voice. When you are very busy with other things and neglecting your time with Me, that is when it is harder to enter into My Spirit, for you have to travel farther. The distance between your busyness of the world and the quiet peace of My Spirit is far, and when you are not stopping regularly for My Spirit, it can become a great labor to enter into My Spirit. (5)
These moments spent with Me are essential to the miracles I want to do through you in the future. You must have a very close connection with Me, a good clear channel that can hear the slightest whisper. I'm tweaking your upgrades and I'm testing your equipment to make sure it's all just right. I've got to use you, it's a big part of My plan, but I have to know for certain that your equipment will be reliable and dependable and will not fail Me in the middle of an important test. That's why it's so important that you take these times with Me, because they're tuning you, training you, testing you, and showing Me you're dependable--that I can depend on you to come to Me, to listen to Me, and then to follow through, whether you think it's important or a big deal or not. Whether or not you're dependable determines how much I can use you. If you're very dependable‚ I can take you with Me everywhere and use you for any task. If you're somewhat dependable, then I can use you most of the time. But if you're a little flaky and can't be counted on to do the job right when I need it done, then I can't call on you very often and I can only use you in low-risk situations where it wouldn't be too bad if the equipment failed. But the high-risk situations and intense missions are out of the question because I don't know for sure that I can depend on you. That's what I'm teaching you now: dependability in the spirit. You learn that by faithfulness in spending time with Me, and then following through on the things I show you during our time together. I'm teaching you to be responsible and reliable in the spirit so that I can depend on you and know that you will be suited to whatever task I call you for, because you will do as I ask of you. That is spiritual dependability. (6)
Even though there's so much to do, don't skimp on the things that are essential to your spiritual health and well-being-such as the Word, prayer, praise, and hearing from Me. If you're not faithful with these things, then you'll wear out and burn out fast, and then you won't be much good to anyone. (7)
Be faithful to stay close to Me no matter what happens.
10
(8)
In order to be proactive for Me and a positive force and demonstration of My love while out in the world amongst its people, you will have to stay close to Me and strong in spirit. You do this by being faithful and diligent in your spiritual life, taking in My Word every day, praying with and for one another, praising and having a joyful and grateful attitude, communicating with Me and one another, and putting My Word into effect in all aspects of your lives. (9)
Find the eye of the hurricane, that special spot where there is perfect calm and quiet. Find that place with Me where, even though the world around you is being tossed about and turned upside-down, you still have peace in the midst of the storm. It takes practice to find the eye of the hurricane, but if you are faithful with your times with Me, resting in Me‚ dwelling in Me, loving Me‚ praising Me, and thinking of Me, you will always be able to find that "secret place," where nothing will be able to touch you. (10)
Thank you for being My forever love. I am so thankful for brides like you who keep their oil burning, who are faithful to fight to come spend time with Me, even when it's difficult. You have strength that you know not of, because I am your strength, and I never run out. (11)
The key is still the same, My loves. It has to be you leaning completely on Me for the strength, the faith, the vision, and all that you need to do My will. And that faith comes from a very close and personal connection with Me. Without that connection, you will falter and possibly fail. But if you're wise and faithful to guard your connection, there is nothing that I will ask of you that you cannot do. (12)
Faithful, consistent, quality time with Me is the key to everything else in life. It's the key to productivity. It's the key to wisdom. It's the key to having your works remain, rather than being destroyed by the first opposing storm (Mat.7:24-27). It's the key to My blessing. It's the key to leading a balanced life. It's the key to happiness. It's the key to loving and fruitful relationships with co-workers or loved ones. It's the key to everything good! (13)
You and I both know that when you're faithful to take your time with Me, and I mean really take your time with Me, then I work behind the scenes to care for what you can't. (14)
It's not only you anymore that is living there in your body, but I am also living there with you. If you've been faithful to spend time with Me‚ it will show, even in what might to you seem like normal, ordinary things. In fact, your testimony and sample during those normal everyday things can often be the most powerful--when it's obvious that you are not "you" anymore. (15)
11
When you're taking your time with Me faithfully, I'm able to help you keep things in perspective, and you're not as easily pressured and tempted to overextend yourself. I'm also able to bring the solutions through prayer, much quicker than you could ever bring them about, if you could bring them about at all. I will do the work for you if you'll let Me. The dynamics of the spirit are such that you can accomplish much, much more if you spend time with Me. (16)
Be Faithful to Tend the Garden of Your Heart (Dad:) He's seeing who's vigilant, who will faithfully and carefully tend to the garden of their heart, who will be on guard at all times. (17)
You must also tend to your spiritual state and take time to tend the garden of your heart by watering it faithfully with the Word, by pulling out the weeds that spring up, that can eventually choke out your fruitfulness if not recognized and pulled up while they're still small. It's a daily process and one that you cannot neglect. (18)
Watch the garden of your heart; never let the evil start. You must watch diligently and faithfully the garden of your heart and mind, for anything that is not yielded to Me becomes a potential opening for the influences and thoughts and evil seeds of the Devil.
(19)
Your mind and heart are as a garden that needs to be tended well and protected against the evil seeds of the Enemy. If you are diligent and strong in faith and in the fear of Me, the moment you see the seeds of the Enemy spring up in your heart and mind, you will run over as a faithful gardener to pluck up the evil weed, while it is small and weak and its roots are shallow. (20)
12
Loving Jesus Intimately is Now Needed to Deepen your Relationship with Him (Dad speaking:) ‌ If you've been faithful to cultivate your relationship with Jesus and deepen it through loving Him intimately, then when the heat is on, your connection with Him will be so strong that it will hold through any test. (21)
(Dad speaking:) The Lord didn't promise us an easy life, but He did say that His yoke is easy and His burden is light if we come unto Him. That's the only way our service and obedience to the Lord becomes easy and light and a pleasure. That goes for everything in your service for Jesus; it's still the same formula--you have to trust and obey. Trust and obedience come first, then He answers your prayer and gives you the anointing and faith you need to do His will. Why did the Lord ask us to say love words to Him? Why is it so important to love Jesus in this way? If you look at it in the natural, it doesn't make much sense. After all, the great God of the universe is all-powerful, all-knowing, so why does He want you to say love words to Him? Why can't we just love Him like Christians have for thousands of years--by loving His Word and loving Him in our hearts? The simple reason is because Jesus has asked it of you. He's bared His heart to you and told you of His need for your love--the love of each of His brides and each Family member. He's requested this love, this deeper and more intimate relationship with you, and just as He first loved us and saved us, we should in turn love Him in the way He asks, and do so gladly. He knows that it's a difficult thing and a sacrifice for some, but He's still asking it of you. Don't worry, though; He'll more than repay. There are other reasons too which I'll get into, but the primary reason why we should love Jesus intimately is because He's asked it of us. How can we not give the One Who has given His life for us the love that He asks for? Another reason is because this is the Endtime and the Lord has promised that "greater things than these will you do" in the Endtime. Not only will He use you to do greater things, to be great witnesses, to even do miracles and wonders in the Endtime, but He's also asking you to do some things that He's never asked of you before. He knows it's going to be difficult for some, especially the younger generation, and a real pride killer. But it's part of His plan, and even if you don't understand it or even like it, the key is the same-trust and obey. Then you'll reap the rewards of your obedience. The Lord is using this as part of your preparation for the Endtime, part of your preparation to be the witnesses He wants you to be. He's using it to draw you closer to Him, to strengthen your connection with Him, to deepen your relationship in the spirit, so that He can use you more mightily. If you try to operate with only the weapons of the past and you don't try to use the new weapons of the spirit, you won't be prepared in spirit for the days to come and you'll fall away when the going gets tough. But if you've been faithful to cultivate your relationship with Jesus and deepen it through loving Him intimately, then when the heat is on, your connection with Him will be so strong that it will 13
hold through any test. You have to have faith in what the Lord has revealed to the Family, and choose to trust and obey by faith, even if it's difficult for you and you don't particularly like saying love words to Jesus. You have to trust that He likes it, that He wants you to say love words to Him, and that He will bless you for it. He'll use it to strengthen your relationship with Him, to draw you closer to Him and to mature you in spirit. He'll use it to cause your love for Him to grow so that you can be an even better witness and sample of His love to others. The Lord has asked the Family to do many radical things before, things that other Christians weren't doing and didn't want to do, and now He's asking the Family to set the standard in this area as well. He's our Lover, our closest and most intimate friend, so naturally you should want to develop as close a relationship as possible with Him, and saying love words to Him is a vehicle for deepening your relationship with your Lover. (22)
(Dad speaking:) I'm glad you're learning to love Jesus in a newer, deeper, and more intimate way. He's promised that if you love Him and seek Him and desire Him above all others, He will add all these other things to you in His way and in His time. So continue to be a faithful lover and bride for Jesus, and He will be more than faithful to you, and love you, care for you, and bring those special blessings along just when you need them. He knows and He cares. (23)

Be Faithful to Put the Word First
Compilation 4 - 03 of The Children of David's pubs on the subject, by http://theaudiokey.com team (All prophecies are Jesus speaking unless otherwise indicated)
If you put My Word first, if you go to the Word for instruction, guidance, direction, and to get the strength you need, you will receive faith, and that faith will help to bring you into the future. This is the way that I have set it up to work. I have provided My Word; you must provide the time to study and absorb it. You must take the steps of commitment, faithfulness, and diligent study in order to receive My full blessing. I have done My part. Now you must do your part. (1) It is My Word that is most important‚ not My work. My work is very important, yes, but it is My Word that I have exalted even above My Name. It is My Word that shall never pass away. It is My Word of which I spoke when I said every jot and tittle of it will be fulfilled. I am My Word, and My Word will endure forever, and its presence in you is vitally important if you are to do My work as you desire (Psalms 138:2; Matthew 24:35; 5:18; John 1:14). So make this daily time in My Word a sacred and holy matter which even My work cannot interfere with. Tell yourself that you must have it if you are to do My work properly, and then be faithful to take it without fail. Consider it part of your work if you must. Put it on your to-do list; consider it a project with a deadline that must be met on a daily basis. (2) I put the delicious plates of good Word food in front of you, but I cannot make you eat it. Nor can I make you maintain a good diet. Some do not desire this type of meal, but prefer to snack or even partake of worldly input and diets that do not help, but only weaken them. The responsibility is yours, personally, to feed yourselves and to help feed your children this essential diet of the meat of My Word on the Endtime. This is My protein of the Spirit! If you will be faithful to eat, to feed, to nourish yourselves in the New Wine, the Endtime Word for today, and if you will pray for vision, faith, and understanding of these Words as you read, I promise to do My part to see that you're strengthened, empowered, and even anointed by these Words, and thus sufficiently prepared for the Endtime days ahead. I want to see faithful students feasting on My Word! I love to see the diligent soul made fat and prosperous and wise through faithful study of My Words (Pro.13:48; 2Tim. 2:15). This is how I raise up strong leaders for the Endtime, faithful workmen who are eager to labor in My Word and doctrine. I bless and empower those who feed diligently on My Words. I would not have you go through these dark days ahead if I had not done My best to prepare you for them! But a lot is up to your faithfully feeding on these Words that will give you what I know you need! (3) When you allow your Word time to be crowded out, it's like exchanging your gold for some plastic trinkets--the little daily jobs and cares of life. Put your Word time first. Be most faithful with that, and then with all the other little things. Everything works better that way! (4) 16
Many of the children of David have very strong, firm, deep foundations of faith which have been built over years and years of faithful study of the Word. But still, even these resources of strength can be depleted with time if you foolishly think that you can continue on in your own strength when you feel yourself weakening. The greatest danger is not the weakening of the flesh through tiredness or physical afflictions, but it is the weakening of the spirit through discouragement, losing the vision, a feeling of hopelessness. (5) If you are just faithful to study and absorb My Words, you will be well prepared and armed in spirit. (6) If your spirit has become a little dry, you need to water it faithfully over a long period of time and really let the water of His Word soak in and be absorbed by your spirit. It's just like working on dry ground and preparing it for seeds--the drier the ground, the more water it needs. It's a fact that if you water the ground it will be softened and the seeds will grow and spring forth into new life. So don't give up, but just keep watering, keep reading and soaking in the water of life, and you'll soon see and feel the wonderful effects of the Word. (7) As long as you are being faithful to tank up on the Word and spend personal time with Me, you'll be able to stay separate no matter where you need to go in the world. If your spirit is well nourished, you will not be of the world and the distinction will be clear‚ both in your own mind and also in the eyes of those you come in contact with. (8) Most of My children are on My channel most of the time. They're thinking My thoughts and seeing things as I see them, and in turn, I give them faith, which engenders peace and trust. Sure, they are sometimes tempted to slip onto the Enemy's channel when they're feeling a bit discouraged or are a bit down physically, or when they neglect their time with Me. But when they are faithful to take time with Me and My Word, they are able to get back on My channel, hearing My thoughts, seeing My visions‚ and are inspired and fruitful for Me. (9) The most important qualities (that I look for is your) connection with Me, (your) ability and willingness to hear from Me about situations and follow the counsel that I give, (your) faith in the Word and (your) faithfulness to go to the Word for help and solutions, and wisdom and discernment in how to apply the Word. (10) (Dad speaking:) Be sure you are faithful to take quality time in the Word and apply the Word to yourselves personally and take the steps to change. (11) You will make progress if you believe My Word and do all you can, being faithful to follow My instructions and admonitions, then trusting Me for the rest. (12)
17
(Dad speaking:) Ask yourself if you love the Lord enough to want to stay close to Him by reading His Word daily, faithfully, really trying to feed from it and apply it to your own life. (13)
I love you because of your obedience to My Word, and your faithfulness to follow, even though it is so difficult. (14) I love it when My children are faithful to follow the path the light of My Word reveals to them. (15) Things aren't going to be perfect or smooth sailing. Things are going to be stressful and busy. You are going to be tired and spent. Things will come up that you're not expecting and that you have to deal with. But you have to maintain your stability despite it all. And you do this by being faithful with your Word time every day, and hearing from Me. (16) If you're faithful in My Word, you are also keeping your heart clean. For one cannot read and fully absorb My Word without growing and becoming cleaner. And when you come to Me with a clean heart, you can have full faith that I will answer. Not that you must be perfect, but you know that you're in My will, and that you're obeying those things which I've been speaking to you about. (17)
Faith Comes from the Word Faith--the faith that keeps your spirit strong‚ the faith that helps you to see things through My eyes, the faith that keeps you forging on for Me--is only found through faithful study of My Word. You've got to read it, absorb it, drink it in, and let it change you and strengthen you. Otherwise you'll continue to weaken, and the Enemy will continue fighting you until he's rendered you totally useless and you'll fizzle out and fade into oblivion. (18) If you will be faithful with your Word time, then your faith will grow. (19) As you are faithful to bathe yourself in My Word, I will renew your faith, and your foundation will be one that will stand strong, and your house will not crumble and be swept away. (20) Is your faith strong? Are you doing your part to increase your faith? Unfortunately‚ many of you are of the opinion that faith only grows when you see My hand work miracles‚ or when something outstanding happens that proves that I am still very active in My miracleworking abilities. However, faith is built by faithful study of My Word. And your faith also increases when you obey My Word. (21) 18
If you put My Word first, if you go to the Word for instruction, guidance, direction, and to get the strength you need, you will receive faith, and that faith will help to bring you into the future. This is the way that I have set it up to work. (22) My Word is full of My promises of protection, supply, and miracles! Your faith will increase as you read and study these Words of life, and thus you will be prepared. (23) Take the stand in faith that you will believe, strengthen your faith through faithfulness to My Word and obedience to Me, and then you will receive the promised anointing and courage needed for what is ahead. (24) Discipleship is largely a walk of faith and trust in Me, and some of My children have not carefully nurtured that faith through faithful and diligent study of the Word, and so they have grown lax and unbelieving. Maybe they haven't been outright declaring that they don't believe the Word, but through their lack of preparation, desperation and obedience, their actions speak louder than their words. (25) Any of My dear children can become strong in faith. Any of My dear children can change their first reaction from that of being downcast and discouraged to being full of faith, trusting, and coming to Me for the answers. The secret to faith is in My Word--being full of it, and learning from it daily. For if you're faithful in the Word, you know that My Word is full of promises, and you know that I never fail in one of My good promises. (26)
Be Faithful to memorize the Word The more of My Word and promises you have stored in your heart, the more spiritual ballast you have to rely on in times of difficulty. It's a spiritual principle. Memorizing, reviewing, and quoting My Word helps it to become a part of you and stick with you. So if you want to be spiritually rich in the days to come‚ stock up now! (27) In times of extreme physical, mental, or emotional stress or strain--and such times will come in the Tribulation--it will be a wonderful strength to your spirit to be able to focus your mind on the words of power and life that have worn a groove into your brain through faithful memorization. They're there, and they're there to remain--unshakable, immovable. (28) (Dad speaking:) Please memorize the Word. Please hide His Word in your heart that you might not sin against Him in that day when great evil is upon the Earth. Be sure you are faithful to take quality time in the Word and apply the Word to yourselves personally and take the steps to change. (29)

Be Faithful to Pray Compilation 4 - 04 of The Children of David's pubs on the subject, by http://theaudiokey.com team (All prophecies are Jesus speaking unless otherwise indicated)
Be faithful to the greatest duty I give you --to fight in prayer.
(1)
Prayer is the most you can do. Prayer is the best you can do. Prayer is the answer. Nothing is impossible to the man or woman of prayer. There is no barrier that strong prayer and the power of the keys cannot break through; there is no enemy that prayer and the keys cannot conquer. There is so much more you can do through prayer than by any other means available to you. Laboring prayer, prevailing prayer, intercessory prayer, unfailing prayer is the answer. (2)
(Spirit Helper:) I think that I shall never see, So great a wonder, 'tis divine majesty, Such are the prayers, I see them rise, Of these faithful ones, as they reach the skies. Majestic power do these prayers wield, Their call is answered, sent to the fields. They touch a life, they empower a soul, Deliver courage and faith to reach a goal. Such splendor exudes from these heartfelt prayers, As they reach out to those for whom you care. In human words I cannot convey, The magnitude of the energy released when you pray, For so great a force is given to none, As to you who take the stand, and count it done. The magic, the marvel, the wonder of it all, Divine majestic power in your hands, who answer the call. Who take up the torch and stand firm in prayer, Reaching out to the world, showing you care. (3)
I am so desperate for prayer warriors. There is so much to be done, and more can be accomplished through prayer than through any other means. Yet, in spite of prayer being the absolute most efficient and productive activity in the world, there are very few who fully embrace the calling and make the most of it. There are so few who are faithful with their prayer vigils. There are so few who labor in desperate prayer. There are so few who allow My Spirit to move them and burden them for others, to the point that they feel the need to pray
22
consistently and wholeheartedly, calling on the keys and commanding Me to work on their behalf. (4)
(Dad speaking:) If you're looking for something different, a new challenge or some kind of change, I'd venture to say you can find what you need in taking up the challenge to be a prayer warrior. Do something different by adapting your schedule to pray more often, more desperately, more faithfully. Review the messages the Lord and I have given on the importance of prayer and take those Words to heart. Become a support to your loved ones when they need you most! Be available for the Lord to delegate some of others' burdens to your shoulders, and then cast that burden on the Lord through your prayers. You won't be disappointed, because you'll have a part in the results! You might think this is a poor substitute for the kind of excitement or change you were hoping for. You might think I'm exaggerating here and being overly optimistic. But I guarantee that you'll be surprised at the excitement in the spirit you'll discover if you really put your heart, mind, and soul into being a prayer warrior for those in need. The Enemy's power to disrupt, destroy, hinder and bring to naught is nothing when countered with the power of the Lord through your prayers! Please recognize the spiritual battle, and not only the great responsibility to pray that the Lord has given you, but the wonderful new ministry of being a prayer warrior that He wants to give you, if you'll just receive it. Then you'll be able to say like Sophie the washerwoman, "I was there! I had a part-because those prayers I prayed are me!" And great will be your reward! You who stay by the stuff as prayer warriors will receive equally the rewards of those who go forth to battle! The Lord will say to you as well, "Well done, My faithful ones; enter into My joy and My reward!" (5)
This is the greatest duty you'll ever have-to pray. And faithfulness to this duty will also bring the greatest blessings you will ever have, for My rewards match the duties I give you. Thank you, dear loves, for your faithfulness to this great responsibility. I know I can count on you. That is why I ask you to pray. (6)
I wish to thank My faithful brides, My yielded channels, for your diligence and faithfulness to this, the greatest duty of prayer that I place in your hands. Such a labor of love is a great thing in My sight. As you cry out to Me in prayer and supplication, not one request will go unanswered. The prayers you pray will return to you not an hundredfold, but a hundred times a hundred will the blessings of prayer return to you. Don't think that I will not bless you so greatly and so mightily for your labor of prayer. For great is your reward in Heaven--above and beyond all you could ever ask or think or imagine with the human mind.
(7)
It excites Me to see so many of My brides opening their hearts in prayer to Me. It moves Me to want to do special things for them, to answer them when they're in need. It can change My mind and move My hand to work for them. There are so many blessings that come from being a faithful prayer warrior. (8)
23
You do your part through prayer, and I'll do Mine. Together we will reap the results in the form of a life blessed with power and many more answers to prayer, due to your faithfulness in prayer. (9)
Even a short prayer has power and effect, and I work through those prayers to bring about My will. Sometimes your prayer is just what is needed to finish the chain of events, to complete the circuit, and then I'm able to fulfill My will. I give you the thoughts, the burden on your heart to pray for something or someone, and as you are faithful to do so, then I'm faithful to work behind the scenes to help and bless others. (10)
The important thing is that you must pray, you must not give up in prayer, and you must see that the answer is this weapon of prayer, together with the keys and the additional weapons I have placed in your hands. These are your best defense; use these weapons together with faith and trust, and stand back and see Me fight for you. (11)
Part of your "works" and your service to Me and what earns you reward in the realm beyond is your faithfulness to pray‌ so prayer is a very important part of‌ determining your destiny, your place, your position, and your reward, in the life to come. Pray earnestly, faithfully, daily, desperately, vigorously, and know that I will answer each prayer. I will work on your behalf to do that which you cannot do. I will make the mountains melt away before you, one by one. (12)
(13)
I've seen your tears, I've heard your prayers, and I've delivered time and again. I'm well pleased with your faithfulness and your importunity. (14)
The faithful prayers of My children are powerful and they can do--and will do--mighty things. (15)
I will always bless and answer your prayers as you are faithful to claim My promises.
(16)
You can never pray too much. Any time you grow weary in prayer, that is the time for revival! As My Word never returns void, so your prayers never return void. Keeping your prayer fires burning brightly is the answer. (17)
So much is dependent on your prayers. Your prayers can do so many things; the frequency and strength of your prayers make a marked difference. I do not ask you to pray, pray, and pray again to bring you to boredom, but so that you can explore new frontiers in prayer, thrill to new ecstasies in prayer, and gain new ground and ever greater victories in prayer. (18)
24
(Dad speaking:) The Lord protects you from a lot, from so many bad things that you don't even know He's protecting you from, because you prayed. He overshadows you and shields you with His force field of protection, His angels and Heavenly helpers, because you faithfully prayed and asked for His help. You can't possibly foresee everything that could happen. You have no idea of what's going on down the road, what all the other people around you are up to, what's happening in the area you're traveling through, or the building you're in. But because of your faithfulness to pray and acknowledge the Lord and seek His protection and blessings, He protects you from so many bad things that could befall you. (19)
The ministry of prayer is a very precious one, but so neglected. It is a great privilege that I bring this need and challenge to your attention, for through this, not only will you find great fulfillment and satisfaction personally, but you will help to change the course of history. You can change the world from your humble prayer corner. You can take hold of the power of God and change lives through your faithful, importunate prayers. (20)
Prayer is also Listening Through prayer, you can not only intercede, not only set the Enemy back, not only raise a great wall of protection around those for whom you pray, but through prayer I will give you the answers, the personalized solutions to each situation. You must not only pray, but you must listen. (21)
Be faithful to seek Me, to love Me, to come before Me to hear My Words.
(22)
You might be able to muddle through, or even do fairly well in some decisions, by using your common sense. If you're prayerful and pray at each step, you'll do even better. But by tuning in to Me and getting My guidance or confirmation in prophecy on every plan or decision, little or big, you're bringing the full power of My Spirit into your life, and it will change you and others around you. It will bring the whole spiritual realm closer to you, and help you be more firmly connected to Me. This will keep developing and developing, until hearing from Me and communicating with Me will be as natural as breathing. It'll be something that you do constantly, automatically, without having to remind yourself and prod yourself into doing it. It takes time to form these good habits, but once you do, you'll never regret it. You'll see its fruits, and you'll realize that My way is the best way. (23)
(24)
Before, many of My children struggled in their own strength to find the solutions, not knowing what to do or how to do it. But now they feel the tremendous relief and strength of knowing they can come to Me directly and hear My voice of counsel for themselves. They faithfully seek My face and are blessed beyond their own understanding with message after
25
message from My throne.
(25)
Your thoughts should be, "Lord, I'm Your servant. I come before You and ask You what You would have me to do. I don't presume to think that I know Your mind by running off and doing what I think You'd have me do, or even what I see needs to get done. I wait to hear Your bidding, and will do whatever it may be." In doing this, you'll prove yourself a faithful and wise servant in whom I am well pleased. (26)
When you are faithful to calm yourself before Me, then you're more inclined to receive the jewels I want to speak to you about. Your channel is more aligned with Heaven, as through calming yourself you remove the clutter and rubble that would create obstacles in your ability to freely receive the things I want to show you. (27)
Your faithfulness to practice "Ask Me Everything" will save your life one day. That's a promise! Each of you will need it at some time in the days to come. (28)
(Dad speaking:) Only He can keep you faithful. All you have to do is listen carefully and follow. (29)
Keep fighting the fight! Keep striving to follow the direction I lead, and be faithful to get any new directions I have for you, so that the light of My Word can continue to guide you‚ enlighten you, and show you the way. (30)
(Dad speaking:) If you're faithful to obey God's voice and where He's leading you, He'll take care of you. He'll protect you and do miracles for you in order to take care of you. (31)

Be a Faithful Witness
Book 4, Compilation #05 of TCOD pubs on the subject, by theaudiokey.com team - July 2019
(Prophecy:) "Go ye into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature, for this is the commission that I have given unto you, the children of David. Go and make disciples of all nations, for the children of all nations cry out for the Words of David. I open the door of all nations of the world unto you, that ye may plant the seeds of the Words of David there, that ye may raise the banner of David, and that ye may feed them with the Words of David. "For the world lieth in confusion, and the darkness is great, and getting greater. Therefore send the light of My Word to the nations of the world, that those in gross darkness can see the light of My Word and can feel the warmth of that light. "I call you forth into a new day of faith--faith to launch out on My Word with faith in Me. Faith to launch out into the unknown. Faith to trust Me for My supply. Faith to do a new thing in a new land. (1) (Jesus:) I send you forth to make disciples of all nations. But to accomplish this, you must first sow My seeds. I call the children of David out to be missionaries, to go and live amongst the people and to love them and to teach them and to give them the Words of David. For there are many, many, many that are starving for the Words of David, and who would accept them hungrily and greedily, and who would become the children of David if they but had shepherds, if they had those who would faithfully feed them. And from these I would raise up others, and I would raise up leaders. So go forth. Be not bunched up, but go forth, a few here and a few there. Go unto the people, become one with them and love them and live with them and care for them. And as you teach them and feed them, they too will go forth and spread the Word and the gospel and My message. For if all the children of David were to go into these lands, it would still not be enough. So you must invest in the people of these lands. Go forth unto them, live with them and care for them and train them, that they may go forth with the Words, that they may stand strong in the days to come. (2) (David speaking:) What's the Family's calling? It hasn't changed over the years. Our methods have changed some; our tactics have changed and will continue to change if the Lord so leads. He's led you to branch out into diverse ministries--but your calling is still the same, the goal is still the same. What's the main job of the Family?--To witness the Words to the waiting world! You are to preach the Words of David, the special Words Jesus has given you for the Time of the End. That's your main job, to be His Endtime witnesses, to preach the Gospel, the unique message He's given to the children of David--the Gospel of the Last Days. And what's the best and most effective way you can do this today?--By activating your country, distributing the tools, winning friends and supporters in your land, and training labor leaders who can help you get the job done. (3) 28
(Jesus speaking:) Manifold are the treasures of the children of David! Their Word mines overflow with gold! Their bags are stuffed with good grain! Their storehouse is bulging with goods! So many seeds! The children of David have so many seeds to sow. Fling them far and wide and let them take root and grow! Each little seed has such tremendous power and contains life-giving strength! Let My seeds work for you! Let My seeds reach into their hearts and wash them with My love. Let My seeds be your tongue. Let My seeds love them. Let My seeds touch them with new hope. My Word will speak to them and tell them of My love, and give them the comfort and hope that they need. I promise My love to the lost and I will fulfill My promise to My sheep. They are Mine and I will reach them in whatever way I can. You can have a great part in My plan by spreading the seeds. (4) For it is I that wish to reach the nations of the world with the Words of David. It is I that desire to pour forth the water of My Words upon these dry and thirsty lands. But I need the conduits, I need those who are faithful and willing to be there, and who are willing to hear My voice and to do that which I say unto them, that they may bring forth the fruit that I wish to bring forth, that they may be the pipes that will allow Me to pour forth My water unto these dry and thirsty lands, yea, these lands parched for the Words of David. (5) (Dad speaking:) Keep your eyes on the goal--we have a world to win before He returns‚ and the quicker we get it done, the quicker He can come back, and the quicker we'll hear those words we've all been waiting for: "Well done, thou good and faithful servant! Enter thou into the joy of thy Lord!" (6) (Jesus:) Each year that the Gospel does not reach all who need to hear it, prolongs the suffering of the world. Things must get worse before they can get better, but how much better to hasten these sad and miserable years, to get them over with, so that I can end the suffering‚ put away those evildoers who have rejected Me, and start again with a new world and a flood of My love, so that everyone who remains might know Me. Thus I call you, My brides, My strengthened children of David, to do your part to bring on the End by giving My message to everyone you meet, by not holding back, by pouring forth, by going into the highways and the byways and compelling them to come in (Luke 14:23). (7) So go, My children! Go ye into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature, and then shall the End come! Then I will say unto you, "Well done, thou good and faithful servants, enter thou into the joy of thy Lord!" (8) (Dad speaking:) So be faithful. Keep fighting. Do all you can. Win as many souls as you can. Love as many people as you can. Get out as much lit as you can. Be a faithful missionary. Be a faithful messenger. This is what I want of you. This makes me so proud of you! (9) 29
As darkness falls upon the world, the light of the children of David will be brighter and more piercing than ever! The wicked will not be able to deny the truth given into the hands of the children of David! For they will stand as a beacon--a light of warning to some, and a light of mercy to others--and this light will shine throughout all the Earth! (10) (Jesus speaking:) Let your candle burn brightly, for the days are few. The darkness approaches and the thick, oppressive fog of the Devil draws near. Trim those wicks, sharpen those swords, and charge into the hearts of those that are needy, and I will never fail to bless, protect, and prosper your going out and your coming in. The Children of David are an unstoppable wave of My Spirit who sweep from shore to shore setting the captives free, liberating the bound and the dying, and setting aflame the hearts of countless millions! Let the Words roll! Let them sweep as a firestorm through the hearts of the lost, that these too may be set aflame and set to burn with the love of Jesus! Let it burn, let it burn, let it burn, that no man quench your fire! Burn free, wild and free, by the anointing of My Spirit, that many more may come to know the truth of David and the love of Jesus. Burn now, My children, and you shall reign with Me for eternity! (11) (Jesus speaking:) I plead with you, My Family, to continue to run the race and carry the torch of My message to those in the world who are dying spiritually without Me. Please do your best to reach them, to give them the hope of My message and to show them My love, to fill their aching and empty hearts so that they do not feel they have to take their own lives in order to find relief from their problems and from the strain of life. Please give them My love! Please don't fail them. They need you! You're the only link I have with them. You're the only ones I can depend on to faithfully go forth with My love and My message. Tell them I love them! Tell them that I will help them if they will only turn to Me and receive Me. Be faithful, and you will never be sorry, for great will be your reward in Heaven for your faithfulness to reach out to the least and to the lowly and to the lost. Great will be your reward in Heaven! (12) What are the gifts I'm most pleased with, My loves? Your love for the lost, as I have loved you. Your desire to give them My gift of eternal life, as I have given you. Your faithfulness to give My Word to those I bring across your path, that you might lead them to Me. Will you give them My Words, that you might give them Me? Will you seize each opportunity I bring your way to make a difference in the lives of others? These are the gifts I most long for. I ask only that in whatever capacity I've called each of you to, that you not let one opportunity pass by to give out My Word. Time is short. Will you gather them in? Will you live each day as if it were your last? Will you do all you can today? Will you never pass up an opportunity to give My Word and share My love? (13)
30
(Dad speaking:) The Lord needs most of His fighters there on Earth, to be His representatives, to give His Word, to pour forth His Love. You've got a big big job to do, so do it well and do it faithfully. (14) The world needs My message, and My message needs messengers, and I have chosen you‚ My Family‚ as My Endtime messengers, My brides who will follow Me to the ends of the Earth and love not their lives to the death. It is you, My Family; you are they, if you remain faithful and forsake Me not. You were born for this ministry and have been trained for years, learning humility, wisdom, and love. Seize this anointing I have given you‚ and don't let another take your crown! (15) (Jesus speaking:) You in My Family must not count yourselves as citizens of this world, but as citizens of Mine. Be not a partaker of her crimes. Be not a partaker of her gluttony, pride and selfishness. Live in the world of My Spirit! Forsake the things of the flesh that would seek to trap you in the snares of the world and become free in My Spirit, so that the things of the world mean nothing to you, so the pride of life does not have a grip on you, so that you can rise above the material things, and rise above the lethargy and the laziness of the world and not let these things touch you. Then you can be My faithful mouthpieces and those willing to loudly proclaim the truth for Me in a wicked and adulterous generation! (16) (Jesus speaking:) No greater love has any man or woman than this, that they lay down their lives for the sheep! How I am pleased with the great sacrifices of My faithful frontline soldiers! (17) You will shine forever as one of My valiant soldiers, My valiant knights who fought the battles of the Lord and overcame the attacks of the Enemy, one who rescued many of My lost sheep from the clutches of the Evil One and brought them safely Home to Me. Forever your name will be written in the stars--the stars that shall shine from your crown because you have turned many to Me and have been faithful to My calling and anointing. (18) As you faithfully and diligently serve Me and deliver the Words to the nations, I will mightily bless you and save you and keep you in the day of trouble which will come upon all the inhabitants of the Earth. (19) If you are faithful to Me, faithful to spread My message and share My love, you will never lack. I will always provide your needs and care for you, even through the last and darkest days of tribulation. With the same measure that you mete, I do measure to you. If you give forth My message sparingly, and if you are not diligent in doing My business, but are lax and slothful, your dividends and the return of your investment will likewise be minimal. But if you give forth freely--of yourself, your time, your strength, your energies, and invest it all into giving out My message to My sheep--then your reward and the return on your investment will be plentiful and bountiful. So give, and it shall be given unto you. (20) 31
(Jesus speaking:) I wish for all of you, My children, to understand that your faithfulness in witnessing is a great key to My blessings in many areas. I have promised you great fruitfulness, great supply, great open doors. I have promised to speak Words of revelation and direction to you. I have promised to make you a financial power. I have promised to lead and guide you in the way that you should go. There are so many blessings-multitudes of blessings that I have in My hand, ready at any moment to pour forth! So many of these blessings will be reached through tiny, obscure doors. So many of the keys to future fruitfulness, productivity and happiness begin with tiny steps that seem insignificant at the time. Much of your great influence to come, the supply of your needs, and even the finances you seek, will come through avenues that in the beginning are hidden, obscure, and in the eyes of man even ridiculous. I would that My children everywhere be ready, instant in season and out of season, to give My love and My Word to all they meet. For many have become corrupted, deceived and weakened because they look on the outward appearance and they see things with the eyes of the flesh instead of the eyes of the spirit. They give to those from whom they wish to receive, or they give to those who seem from their perspective to have power and riches and greatness in the ways of the world. They give and love and minister with partiality, and it is because the ways of the world are too much with My children--the ways of striving in the flesh, of laboring in their own strength, of struggling to make things happen as they see them from their narrow, finite perspective. I am the God of the universe, the Creator of all things, both great and small, and many times I test My children. I put them in circumstances to test their love, to test their sensitivity to My Spirit, to test their willingness to minister even to the lowly, as I did. I tell you now, My brides, My faithful ones in the house of David, these are the days when I am testing your love and I am seeing who is worthy. Where are My missionaries who see things as I do? Who look upon the sheep as I do? Who long to seek and to save that which is lost as I do? These are the days of testing your love, when great blessings, great open doors and great supply hinge on tiny decisions of yieldedness, tiny demonstrations of faithfulness, and tiny sacrifices of love. When you walk through the world as My messengers, I walk with you, and I watch your behavior. I know your attitudes and I hear your words. When you stop to help that elderly man or woman across the street and give them a tract, I take note. When you take a moment to encourage the beggars and give them a coin and a tract, I take note. When you humble yourself to approach that group of teenagers, even though you feel embarrassed and out of place, and you give them a little encouragement and a tract, I take note. When you smile at the bus driver and show him appreciation for his faithful labors as a servant of the city, and give him a tract, I take note. When you go to the bakery to pick up your bread, or when you shake the clerk's hand and tell him that you appreciate his faithfulness to do his job day in and day out so that you might have what you need, and you give him a tract, I take note. When you go to the video store to pick up a video and you 32
take a few minutes to encourage the attendant about his problems and to pray for him and to give him a tract, I take note. When you're waiting in the dentist's office and you reach out to that person sitting beside you and strike up a conversation and help to calm their fears and reassure them, and you give them a tract, I take note. When you see that young mother with a stroller and a couple of little children by her side, struggling with her groceries trying to make it home, and you take your time to help her and to compliment her on the beauty and blessing of her children, and you give her a tract, I take note. There are so many times throughout the day when you have the opportunity to be a vessel of My love and a carrier of My Words to those in need. All of these situations seem insignificant, and it seems you have so little to receive in return; yet unbeknownst to you, all the while I am seeing your faithfulness. I am able, according to My promises, to give to you as you give to others. If you give generously, faithfully, day by day, then I will in some way, through some avenue, give to you, and you will not lack. But if you withhold, if you are selfish, apathetic and dull in spirit, so that you cannot even see the needs of those around you or the opportunities that I give you to be My messenger and to give My light and love to the little lambs, then you stop the flow of My blessings into your life. When I say give and it shall be given unto you, I am bound by My promises. As you pour out, I will pour in. Being My messengers, My witnesses, My voice of salvation and warning in this wicked world is your primary duty in life. And your faithfulness or lack of faithfulness in this is a key to how I am able to shower you with My blessings. It determines whether I am able to give you the bare minimum of that which you need just to scrape by, or whether I am able to send forth an abundant downpour of blessings from Heaven! I long to do great things for My children, for you, My special brides, My precious children of David, My faithful ones of the Endtime. I long to open effectual doors that no man can shut. I long to bless you with abundant provision. I long to lead you to those who can protect you, those who can keep you from danger in the dark days to come. I long to make you as a mighty voice, as one in the wilderness crying out, "Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand! Repent, for the Son of Man comes again! Repent, for your days are numbered, and the day of salvation is now!" You will become a world power in your witness, in your message, in your products, in your finances, in your connections with those who are in power. But all these miracles and open doors hinge on little tiny obediences, little tiny yieldednesses, little tiny moments of giving, as I speak to your heart and test you and call you to minister to the weak, to the small ones, to the insignificant little lambs. When I see that you are faithful in that which is least then I will know that you, too, will be faithful in that which is much. Then I will set before you great doors, great opportunities, great power and plenty, that no man will be able to take from you. It will be a gift of My hand, and it will be a testimony of My blessing. Many in the world will look upon you and know that you are My Bride and I am your faithful Husband, the One Who keeps you, surrounds you, protects you, and supplies your every need. 33
In that day you will look upon these blessings and you will know that it is not because of your own doing, your own striving in the flesh, your own trying to make things happen, to reach the top, to go through the big doors, to meet the big contacts, but it will be because you are My faithful messengers and you cared for My little lambs. You saw the sheep and you tended to their needs, as I would. You were willing to make yourself of no reputation to seek and to save that which was lost, to care for the needy. You were not secluded in your own blessings, or blinded by selfsatisfaction, or full and unfeeling and lethargic from your much feasting on My Words, but you felt the heartbreak and the pain and the need of those who have nothing. You were willing to take your time and strength to give to those in need, even when you saw that there was nothing for you to receive in return. This is unselfish giving, unselfish witnessing, unselfish dying daily, but this is what opens My great doors. So now, My children, during these days of the testing of your love, ask yourself, inquire of yourself today, to see if you will be faithful in that which is least, so that I will know that you will also be faithful in that which is much. There is much to be done, much Word to be poured forth, many to be reached and saved, many new lands and ministries to be pioneered, but first you must purge yourselves of the sin of looking upon others with the eyes of the flesh instead of the eyes of the spirit. You must cleanse yourselves of the weakness of judging by outward appearance, by calling out to Me and asking Me to give you a new heart of compassion, understanding and brokenness. Then and only then will you have the power within you to be the witnesses and messengers that I have ordained you to be. Then you will lift your eyes upon the fields and see that they are white unto harvest, and you will be moved to action! Then you will look upon the multitudes, both great and small, and you will be moved with compassion for them, and you will pour forth My message to any and all who will hear. I have so few messengers in the world today, so few who are willing to speak My Words. You, My children of David, are among the faithful few, and so it is that I must test your love. I must test your faithfulness. I must test your obedience. I must test your humility. Though you have done well in days and years past, today and in the days to come the need will be greater. So I must purge you and cleanse you and make you strong. And so do I test you and instruct you. I long to make you great. I long to make you powerful. I long to make you a voice that is heard and recognized the world over! But first you must learn faithfulness in that which is least as you feed the tiniest, weakest and most uncomely sheep. When you learn faithfulness and diligence in this, when your love is so great that you look beyond the outward appearance and reach out to touch even those who are the most sickly, those who are nigh unto death, then I will know that you are ready, that you are pure and righteous and strong enough in the spirit, that I can pour forth My greatest blessings, My greatest abundance, and My greatest open doors, all of which you will need for the days of the End. This is part of your preparation as My chosen Endtime army--these days of testing your love--but they pave the way for the days that are to come of great blessing, power, strength, 34
witness, provision, protection and the power of My Spirit! (21)
You are Blessed for Your Obedience You are blessed for your obedience to witness. It's My great commission to you! Even if you can't understand all the reasons now, be faithful, be true to Me, and you will be glad you were. (22) Do what you can, that it may be said of you, 'He did what he could. She did what she could.' That it may also be said of you, 'Well done, thou good and faithful servant.' Be faithful to pour forth the Words. (23) I've called you to be faithful. Remember that! You can't gauge whether or not you're in My will by the circumstances, the fruit, or the apparent lack of fruit. (24) It's so important for you to be faithful witnesses on Earth--to deliver your souls to those I bring across your path. (25) Be faithful, My loves-faithful to speak the truth and instruct the people wherever you are. Faithful to teach the people in My ways. Faithful to give them the meat of the Word. Faithful to give them the Words of David. (26) Remember that a love for lost souls isn't necessarily manifested by feelings of passion or highs of the spirit. More often than not it's manifested by faithful obedience to the great commission. As you step out to obey, I put the love in your heart. (27) You might not be able to win everybody to Me--and that isn't even your job; it's Mine-but you can be a faithful ambassador for Me at all times and in every area of your life and demeanor. (28) Me.
So be faithful with the task that I have put into your hands and leave the results up to
(29)
This is the reward of obedience--everlasting souls for My Kingdom, a mighty harvest which shall endure for all eternity as a testimony to your obedience, faithfulness, and humility! (30) Through giving My love and words to others‌ you received an hundredfold--heavenly rewards for your faithfulness, new stars in your crown of life, and wonderful surprises you can hardly imagine now. All this, and Heaven too! (31) 35
(Pandita Ramabai speaking:) Great are the multitudes that will live on up here because of your faithfulness‚ and great will be the multitudes that will humbly bow at your feet out of gratitude for your sacrifices to serve and get out the Words. (32) If you remain faithful in your obedience of preaching My Word, so will I pour forth unto you in great supply to fill your great needs. (33) (Dad speaking:) Ask yourself if (you) love the lost enough to be willing to go out and reach them or follow up on them day after day, week after week, year after year, to faithfully give them Jesus and His Words and message of love even when (you're) tired. (34) Feed your sheep faithfully, not holding back the meat of the Word. (35) Being faithful day by day even when the fruit is slow in coming is love for the lost. (36) I love how you love Me. Your faithfulness, your endurance, your perseverance in spite of all the daily obstacles, does not go unnoticed. What you spend to reach the lost I will more than repay.

Be Faithful to Feed the Sheep and Train Disciples Book 4, Compilation #06 of TCOD pubs on the subject, by theaudiokey.com team - July 2019
(All prophecies are Jesus speaking unless otherwise indicated)
Go into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature. Make disciples of all nations. This is My call. This is the ultimate and overall vision. You, My children, have been faithful to preach the Gospel, to get out and witness, to pour forth My message, the written Word, the spoken Word, the Word through your samples, through your love, through your sacrifice, through your giving to and helping the poor. You've poured forth, you've sown the seed, and I am well pleased. You've done the things that I've said to do. But now you must also make disciples of all nations. You must win, feed, and cultivate, for in the days and years ahead you will have need of those who can help you do the job. This takes faithful feeding and shepherding. It takes a longer-term vision than you're used to. It takes commitment. But even as you've had to make a commitment to sticking with Me, to staying in the Family, to living the truth, so now I ask you to make the commitment to feed the sheep. Come before Me and commit yourself to this new vision--the vision of winning disciples of all nations, the vision of both preaching the Gospel and creating other preachers of the Gospel. This is how the Word will spread; this is how I will fulfill the vision. (1) (Dad speaking:) The Lord is asking, and has for some time been asking, that the Family move away from the quick results methods to the long-term results methods. It's a sacrifice to faithfully follow up on and feed the sheep. It seems like a sacrifice at the time to focus your efforts on follow-up ministries and feeding ministries rather than ministries that bring a quick turnaround in the sense of lots of lit distributed, lots of souls won, or lots of finances coming in, or all of the above. It's not bad at all to get out lots of lit, to win lots of souls, or raise lots of finances; but it is bad to neglect what the Lord is calling you to do, and what is really your primary calling-feeding the sheep and training disciples-in favor of these other things just because the results are quicker. It's a case of misplaced priorities and wrongly perceived values. It's in the faithful, long-term follow-up and feeding that you meet and win those who will be disciples, co-workers‚ kings, protectors, and supporters. They don't get scooped up with the crowds in the shallows. They wait for you to make the effort to come find them in the deep waters. That's what the Lord is calling the Family to do, and that's what you need to do if you want to be on board with the new moves of the spirit, if you want to move in the direction the Lord is leading the Family's witnessing, and if you want to get in position for God's full blessings. (2) Open your doors unto these that are hungry, unto these that search, unto these that need the fellowship, the caring, the shepherding, the counsel, the wisdom. They need a 38
listening ear, they need to be directed to My Word. They need regular feeding that they may be strengthened, that they too may become witnesses of My Word and of you unto others. And though they may not be willing to leave all behind to serve Me, yet they can still serve Me by caring for and loving you, by witnessing in the place of their work and to their friends, and thus they can bring others unto you. And you can encourage these with your testimonies and with testimonies of My children all around the world. And these will support, these will help, and these will be proud to be part of you. You are the leaders and these are the sheep. Feed them and care for them, become involved with them. Pour forth your hearts unto them. Pour forth your love unto them. Accept them and open your doors unto them. Be not afraid. For though there be few that are willing to give up their all to serve Me, there are many who are willing to love Me, who are willing to acknowledge Me, who are willing to give some of their time unto Me. If they will take these steps, I will love them and bless them. There are many of these that would fellowship with you, that would be called by your name, that would huddle about you for the feeding of My Word. They will not be as you are, wholehearted and dedicated, but they hunger and thirst for feeding, they seek for good shepherding, for love, for truth. And they would be willing to come unto you for these things. But you must be faithful to feed and faithful to care for them. (3) Going out to feed My sheep can be difficult. Sometimes you're tired and you don't feel like getting out of your nice comfortable bed to go out into the muddy pasture among the sheep, facing the elements. Sometimes it's wet or cold outside, or the sheep are far away on the other side of the field or meadow‚ or they've managed to get themselves in some sort of trouble with brambles or predators. But still you go out to feed My sheep and minister to them, and it is your faithfulness to do so that proves your love for them. It is your perseverance in feeding them that makes you a good shepherd, one who loves them and has a heart for them. You don't have to be inspired to feed My sheep, or have a vision for their future, or have a deep love for them. It can help if you do, of course, but feeding them doesn't depend on any of these things, just on your obedience and faithfulness to do it day after day after day, to provide what My sheep need and to take it to them, no matter what the cost. This is how you show your love for them, and as you do, all these other things are added unto you--the inspiration, the vision, the love. If you don't feel these things now, just do it anyway. Continue to feed My sheep. Lovest thou Me? Feed My sheep. (4) (Dad speaking:) if you're faithful to feed the sheep--whether there's just one or two or there's a hundred--one day you'll wake up and realize that those sheep are helping to sustain and feed you and others. It's a law of the spirit. As you give, as you obey, the Lord blesses, and it will be given unto you. It's also a law of nature and science that as you invest in those who have the wherewithal to further your cause, you're accomplishing far more than if you try to do it all yourself.
39
Forget trying to do it all yourself! You need the help of these who are now friends, sheep, contacts, or kings, many of whom the Lord wants to become disciples or members to some degree or another. Feed them! Feed them the Activated mags and books! Feed them with your sample and with your fellowship! Feed them with the wonderful wealth of Word that's at your fingertips, with so much more still to come--and much of it material that is specifically -tailored for follow-up and training new disciples. (5) The fact is that financial stability is a product of building a work. It's the result of faithfully feeding, teaching, ministering to and following up on those you have witnessed to‚ and all of these components are going to be major parts of the offensive. So sooner or later you are going to have to make the switch to this type of ministry. It seems wise to begin to work toward this now, even though it's not an easy transition to make. Homes that have successfully made the transition explain that there is a difficult period at the start. You are ministering to friends and converts and they aren't yet supporting you‚ but they still take your time as you feed them‚ teach them, and bring them along. Eventually they do begin to support you‚ but that period before they start to do so can be a "dry" financial period. This stage can have a bit of a two steps forward, one step back feel to it. But as you hang in there, the blessings and rewards will come as a result of your obedience and faithfulness. And those that have made this transition successfully say that when they continued to minister to these folks even through the dry and difficult financial period, the Lord blessed them and came through for them, and now much, if not most, of their support comes through their follow-up ministries. (6) I will lead Family Homes and members to a variety of witnessing ministries and open as many doors as you are willing to walk through and appropriate by faith. But those open doors will only result in lasting fruit to the degree that you are faithful to follow the process all the way to the end. It's not enough to walk through the open door, make a splash, gain a few souls, and then move on to some exciting new open door. … In most cases I will expect you to follow through with what you start, in order to reap the full harvest that I intend for you to reap, until I fully close the door and tell you clearly that your work is finished. You will feel and see mighty manifestations of the spirit as I lead you into situations that no other disciple or missionary has ever entered before. I have many of these miracles of the spirit lined up for those who pray, and are desperate, wielding the spiritual weapons at your disposal and tuning in closely to My Spirit and to the guidance of your helpers. But, once that door is opened and you walk through by faith, in some ways that is the "easy" part, the miraculous move of the spirit that only I can do. … Then comes the pick and shovel work of faithfully following through on every lead, ministering to and feeding the sheep I bring your way--not just planting the seed, but then watering it, fertilizing the soil, and tending to the sprouting plant. You, My loves‚ are professional in planting seed and you have been faithful to My call to do so for many years‚ which has resulted in untold millions who have received the seed of My
40
Word, and come to know Me and know of Me. I commend you for that faithful work and the tremendous fruit that it has borne. In this new day of the Witnessing and Winning Offensive, you will need to focus on the more long-term work of caring for the seeds that are planted, nurturing them, weeding the fields, cultivating and bringing in the crop. That will take a new level of professionalism, which includes method, organization, planning your work, and methodically working the plan. (7) You, My children, must be farmers in the Spirit--farmers who move slowly, patiently and faithfully, who know that the fruit comes forth through their patient labors. They can't make it come forth faster. They must do what they must do in obedience, in faithfulness, and then the fruit comes forth. (8) No matter how many potential members you meet in a day‚ it's likely that none of them will become what they are ordained to be if you aren't faithful to follow through with method and perseverance and consistency--which includes calling them, e-mailing them, praying for them, feeding them the Word, taking the time to meet them, providing their spiritual needs, and bringing them through their entire spiritual childhood until they can grow into the calling that I have for their lives. (9) It is the time to make disciples of all nations! Gather them in. Feed them. Win them. Shepherd them. Make them a part of you so that they too can be fruitful, they too can become shepherds, and they too can be-come preachers of My Word. (10) Those who will win disciples are those who will seek them out each and every day, regardless of whether it's their primary ministry or not. They will do this by faithfully listening for My checks, diligently handing out My Word to everyone they meet, witnessing to those whom they sit or stand next to, or if they are home that day, they will be praying proactively for those that I will lead them to meet next, using the keys and the spiritual weapons.

Prophecy Vitamins on Faithfulness
Compilation 4 – 07 of The Children of David's pubs on the subject, by http://theaudiokey.com team - July 2019 All prophecies are from Jesus unless otherwise indicated.
1. What matters is that you follow Me, that you do those things that I say to do, that you perform those jobs that I give you to do, that you are faithful in all that I have given to you, and that you are yielded to Me and My Spirit, to My calling and to those things that I bring across your path. 2. I judge you according to that which I have brought across your path. I judge you according to your faithfulness, to your yieldedness, to your willingness. 3. So be faithful in the calling in which I have placed you. Serve Me, trust Me, obey Me. Yield to Me in the position I have placed you, whether it be a high position or a lowly position, whether you be on top of the mountain or whether you be in the depths of the desert. For in all these places I love you, for you are Mine. 4. (Dad speaking:) Everyone Here is so special, we're so special to the Lord. Everyone doesn't have exactly the same reward, that's true. For some were more faithful, some were more obedient, some were more yielded. Some served the Lord, some didn't; they just knew the Lord. But each one is truly content and happy. 5. (Dad speaking:) You'd be surprised to see how much importance the Lord places on your yieldedness and your faithfulness. He doesn't judge you by your great accomplishments, because He knows that those accomplishments occurred because He was working through you anyway! He judges you by your love for Him and others, and your obedience and faithfulness to Him and His Word. 6. (Dad speaking:) And, oh, there is great glory for some Here who seemed to do nothing there! They were unknown and unsung, but they were judged righteous and faithful because they did His bidding. So be faithful. Be diligent. Be yielded. But above all, be loving, and great will be your reward when you get Here. Great will be your reward. I'll say it again, great will be your reward! 7. For those children of David who serve Me faithfully with all their hearts, who are My warriors of the Endtime, it is noted in the annals of Heaven. There is an everlasting record of your service for Me and the sacrifices you have made, and this record will bring you much glory and much praise in the Heavenly Kingdom. 8. Your faithful service on Earth shall be remembered. It shall be an everlasting glory to you. It shall be an everlasting honor that you gave your life and you believed and you served Me, having not seen. This shall be counted unto you as great faith, and for this, you shall receive a great reward, and with it, tremendous happiness and contentment. 43
9. Consider My great men who have walked the face of the Earth, and the great and mighty things that they have done‌ Why could they do these things? Because they were faithful in that which was least. Because I tested them and I tried them and I proved them, and they came through as faithful men, as obedient men, as yielded men. 10.(Dad speaking:) If you keep being faithful, the Lord will use you and reward you greatly! 11.These are the days of testing your love, when great blessings, great open doors and great supply hinge on tiny decisions of yieldedness, tiny demonstrations of faithfulness, and tiny sacrifices of love. 12.What is success in My eyes? What do you receive eternal rewards for? What is considered "success" in My Kingdom? It's very simple: love and faithfulness. I gave a pretty clear answer in the Bible when I said, through Paul, "One thing is required of a servant, and that is to be found faithful." That pretty much sums it up. Faithfulness to Me, and faithfulness to love--that's the true measure of success in My eyes. 13.True success is being faithful in the calling I've given you, the job I've given you to do, being obedient to what I tell you. 14.(Dad speaking:) Folks, I've always taught you that if you're faithful to the Lord, He'll be faithful to you. If you're faithful to look to Him, if you're faithful to read His Word, if you're faithful to get out and preach the Gospel, if you're faithful to love, if you're faithful to witness, the Lord will be faithful to you. He's never let you down all these years, and He's not about to do so now. I know for a fact that if you're faithful to Him, He'll be faithful to you! 15.Faith is the key to the life of a Christian, to the life of My missionaries, My children. It is the key to faithfulness and blessing and provision and power and protection and inspiration and receiving every good thing that I wish to bestow upon My precious children whom I love. 16.It always pays to give Me your all, My loves. No matter what you're doing, shoot for the stars, be a professional, and let your work shine with the excellence of faithfulness and diligence. 17.When you work hard for Me, when you're committed to excellence in your work, it shows Me that you treasure your service to Me. 18.I do not judge a man by his title, but by his love and faithfulness to Me in service, whether lowly or great.
44
19.Remember that My highest compliment goes to the man who is faithful where I place him, filling his spot with honor. If you're doing that, then you're being everything I want you to be! When you come to Heaven to receive your great reward, do you remember what I'm going to tell you? "Well done, thou good and faithful servant!" 20.Blessed is the man that endures temptation, for when he is tried he shall receive a crown of life which I have laid up for all those that love Me, that are faithful to the End, that faint not, neither are weary, but are diligent and continue to fight in spite of persecution, in spite of the faces of their foes, in spite of all odds. Even so, fight on! 21.I long for the day and the moment when I will gather you up into My arms. I will thank you and reward you for the love that you've given to others, the faithfulness with which you've served Me, and the hardships you've endured for Me. 22.The children of David have proven themselves faithful and loyal unto Me and willing to sacrifice and to die daily for Me, so that I can pour forth upon them in great abundance this great measure of power and love that I have for them, that they may use it greatly in the times to come. 23.(Dad speaking:) Only He can keep you faithful. All you have to do is listen carefully and follow. 24.I look up to you and salute you and honor you. I hold out My hand to give you the badges and medals of honor you deserve because of your faithfulness. I have found in your hearts the jewels of greatest value--loyalty, faithfulness, dedication, devotion and love. This is what I will honor. This is what I will bless. 25.My friends‚ My loves, My brides, because you have been found faithful, you will never be found wanting. 26.All of you who are still plugging away, faithfully following and faithfully obeying, are My precious pearls of great price, and your rewards in Heaven are awesomely great. 27.Thank you for being such faithful disciples. I don't think you could ever know how much you please Me and how much joy you have brought to My heart through your years of being faithful. 28.I have much to reveal to you, so stay faithful, loyal and in tune, and I will pour out upon you and feed you in spirit and strengthen you in every way. 29.Will you be faithful to Me? Will you put Me first, before anything else? Will you give Me your life, your all, each and every day? Oh, I have so much to give you in return! 30.These are the days of doing small things, but in the days to come, those who've been faithful to do whatever I asked of them, no matter how small, I'll be able to trust with even greater things. 45
31.In those days of great miracles, only those who have been willing to endure the battles, to go through the tests and trials and remain faithful to Me, will have that special closeness and link with Me. Only them will I trust with greater works. 32.(Dad speaking:) The Lord is watching and He wants to see who are the faithful ones. He wants to see who are the ones that are going to seek Him and His Kingdom first, even if they don't have anybody making them, but they do it out of a desire to please Him because they love Him. 33.I have blessed you for your humility, for your willingness to do the jobs that had to be done, for your humility to not seek the high place, but to seek the low place. 34.Though you have not done those things that are great in the sight of man, you have done those things that are great in the sight of God, for you have been faithful in the little things, faithful to My calling, faithful to My checks and My admonitions, faithful in your obedience and in your willingness. 35.Real trust is earned by faithful diligence and consistency in obeying the Word, using the new weapons, being prayerful, being loving, considering others before yourself, being open and honest. 36.(Dad speaking:) Rejoice that the battle is fought and that the battle is won! The Message is preached, and you have stood strong and faithful, uncompromising and loyal! 37.(Dad speaking:) The victory is won day by day, month by month, each time you make a choice for the Truth, each time you make a choice not to compromise, each time you pray and hear from the Lord and obey Him and do the right thing! 38.(Dad speaking:) You only need the faith for today. Be faithful to follow today. Don't let the Enemy scare you before you even get to where you're meant to go. That's his tactic. 39.(Dad speaking:) If it's too hard to think of being faithful for years and making it through years more, then just commit to being faithful daily. That still means you'll commit to the long term, but you've broken it down to what you actually have to do, and that is to take it a day at a time and let Him help you day by day. 40.(One of the things that matters to Me) is your faithfulness-out of love for Me-to the job or ministry or field that I've called you to. 41.I see you as successful and accomplished by your faithfulness, through your perseverance, dedication, and getting up from your falls again and again to accomplish My will for you. 42.Obedience without My Spirit is a works trip and will get you nowhere, and won't earn you the rewards and blessings you seek. In order to hear My "Well done, good and faithful servant, 46
enter thou into the joy of thy Lord" at the end of your journey, you need to have obeyed in My spirit of loving service to each other and to the lost. 43.Have you forgotten the parable of the talents? (Mat.25:14-29; Luke 19:12-26.) Whether their portion was small or great, I rewarded all those who faithfully did their best with what they had. 44.Great is your faithfulness and great is your love. You're a jewel without price, something that I wouldn't trade for anyone or anything else in the universe. You're special, you matter to Me, and I couldn't do what I'm trying to do in these last days of history if I didn't have you on My team. Thank you for being exactly who you are, for being faithful in the little things, and for being ready for Me to use. You're a disciple to be proud of. 45.All your labors of love, all your faithfulness, all your perseverance, and all your devotion to Me is seen and remembered, and will be rewarded accordingly. 46.The prophet Daniel recorded what is to come--those who were faithful to Me and My mission on Earth "shining like the stars forever and ever" (Daniel 12:3). It doesn't get better than that! 47.As long as you keep moving forward, you're bound to be a winner--you will cross that finish line! You will see the fruits of your endurance, and you will receive My medal of honor for your loyalty and faithfulness. 48.(Daniel speaking:) Your faithfulness, devotion, and determination to follow Him in spite of whatever opposition you may face will be rewarded in ways that are far beyond your comprehension at this time. 49.I watch for the worthy and I watch for the believing, and I watch for the faithful. 50.I have been testing and proving and purging My children, and when I am done, I will know them that are faithful and true. 51.Faithfulness is obedience to a myriad of little things. Whether My request is one that costs greatly, or is something simpler, still, it is brought to pass through a series of little obediences. 52.Keep being faithful, keep trusting in Me, keep making an effort to stay close to Me, and I will love you and honor you forever. 53.(Dad speaking:) If you're faithful to obey God's voice and where He's leading you, He'll take care of you. He'll protect you and do miracles for you in order to take care of you. 54.As you are faithful to do your best for Me no matter what, you can be sure that I will reward you accordingly and bring things into your life that I know will be just what you need to accomplish the purpose I have created you for. 47
55.It's the faithful, not just the talented, that I will greet with a "well done" when they enter into the joy of My Kingdom. It's the faithful whom I will make rulers over many in that day. 56.They that are faithful to Me and to the Words of David are the ones in whom I delight and through whom I accomplish My will. 57.When you feel unseen or unnoticed, but are faithful and cheerful and rejoice at the progress of another more than your own, this is great in My sight, and I will reward you in My time. 58.I judge each one by their faithfulness, loyalty, dedication, desperation, yieldedness, and by how much of themselves and their heart and their own ways and wishes they've given to Me. 59.(Dad speaking:) The Lord doesn't pass people by and forget to bless them and give them the things they appreciate and that make them happy. If you're faithfully serving Him, He'll bless you and reward you and cause you to have the things that make you happy too. 60.(Dad speaking:) The Lord rewards and blesses people according to their need, their faithfulness and their obedience, and He doesn't forget anyone. 61.(Dad speaking:) The Lord's idea of success is what? It's all in the simple verse, "Well done, thou good and faithful servant; enter thou into the joy of thy Lord." That's the Lord's idea of success-being faithful in the calling and ministry He's given you to do. 62.(Dad speaking:) What is important is that you have fought, and held on, and continue to hold on! You've remained faithful and true! 63.Though you may not feel like you're receiving great rewards here‚ trust Me, for I have great rewards laid up for you faithful, loyal, and dedicated ones. 64.I look on the heart and the love and obedience and faithfulness therein, not just the outward success or failure. 65.I do not deal out equal rewards across the board, for that would not be justly rewarding those who have given more or less. I bestow My rewards according to your works, according to your faithfulness, according to your obedience and sacrifice. 66.There are definite levels of rewards in Heaven, and you earn these by your faithfulness and sacrifices. 67.Never in this world's history has it been so easy to abandon your faith and follow after perdition. Never have Satan's temptations been so enticing and desirable. Never before has it been so easy to be distracted and pulled away from your mission. This is why your missions on Earth‚ 48
and your faithfulness in them‚ will bring you such great rewards, because it is so easy here and now to "cast away your confidence, which hath great recompense of reward" (Heb.10:35). 68.For your faithfulness I am preparing such a reward that you will be ashamed for not giving more for Me. Give your all while you can, for this life is your proving ground. This is your test. This is your Gethsemane. This is your martyrdom. 69.Hold fast that which thou hast, let no man, no, not even Satan steal that which thou hast, the crown of glory that is given unto thee. Hold it fast. Hold it through the storm. Hold it through the flood. Hold it through the fire. For there is laid up for you that are faithful, you that are trusting, an exceeding great reward. 70.You just have to believe and accept the anointing, the Endtime anointing that is already falling on each of you who will remain faithful. 71.Stay faithful, stay loyal, stay trusting. Keep on believing. And be not weary in well doing, for in due season you shall reap, if you faint not. 72.There are so few who remain faithful for the long haul. There are those who are willing to run the race for a while, a few laps, or even many laps, but there are few who are marathon runners, who are willing to train and sacrifice to have the endurance and strength to keep going the full distance. 73.When you're tempted to think that what I've asked of you is just too difficult, that you'll never make it, that you'll never be good enough, that it's not even worth trying, then try this: Come to Me and ask Me to give you a little peek at one of the multitude of treasures that I plan to give you in reward for your faithful service to Me. 74.You can be certain that when this life is over you have a happy Heaven full of rewards and blessings awaiting you for your faithfulness. 75.As you have heard many times‚ there are rewards for your faithfulness. By giving 110% for Me, you receive greater honor in Heaven. 76.I do not deal out equal rewards across the board, for that would not be justly rewarding those who have given more or less. I bestow My rewards according to your works, according to your faithfulness, according to your obedience and sacrifice. There are definite levels of rewards in Heaven, and you earn these by your faithfulness and sacrifices. 77.Often it is in following My footsteps in the course of your day, simply doing what you know you should, being persistently faithful in that which I have called you to do, that you have great success.
49
78.I bring you along in My time, at My speed, as you faithfully follow Me and obey Me. How you please Me! How I delight in your humility, in your yieldedness, in your faithfulness and obedience to follow wherever I lead, and at the pace that I lead. 79.Take the stand in faith that you will believe, strengthen your faith through faithfulness to My Word and obedience to Me, and then you will receive the promised anointing and courage needed for what is ahead. 80.Your earthly life's greatest peak of glory will be the day when I bring you Home to Me and richly reward you before all creation‚ as I say to you‚ "Well done, My good and faithful servants! Enter into the joy of the Lord! 81.So it is choices.--Day by day, step by step, choices. And I watch for the worthy and I watch for the believing, and I watch for the faithful, and there are many. 82.There will be many challenges, many difficulties, and much testing of your faith. But My faithful ones will be able to stand the test, and they will come forth as pure gold. They will shine with pure radiance, and they will know that it has been worth it all to give their all to Me. 83.Faithfulness is a gift from My hand, a work of My Spirit given to those who depend on Me. It's not something you can work up, but only a gift you can pray down. I am faithful, and the only One Who can keep you from falling as you commit your thoughts, your time, your works, your heart, your body, your spirit, your way, your life to Me. 84.You are My children upon whom the ends of the Earth are come. You are those whom I have chosen and called, and I will make you faithful. 85.All the little jobs you do every day, the same routine jobs, are very pleasing to Me. I see your faithfulness, and it makes Me very happy. 86.Those who carry on in the routine jobs with little change and variety in their day, but who carry on faithfully and responsibly, are great in My eyes and will receive a great reward. 87.Be faithful, even if you think it's unto death. 88.The gifts of the spirit are given in abundance to those who show that they treasure them, that they are worthy of them--not that they are worthy because they are perfect, as there are none righteous, but those who show themselves worthy through their faithfulness‚ obedience, and following closely. 89.(Daniel speaking:) The reward for your faithfulness, devotion, and determination to follow Him in spite of whatever opposition you may face, will be rewarded in ways that are far beyond your comprehension at this time. 50
90.If you only knew what joys and rewards are awaiting those of you who serve Me in spirit and in truth, who remain faithful and dropped out of the Devil's worldly princedom and free from his pollution! 91.(Dad speaking:) If you could only see the end of the road! If you could only see what the Lord has in store for you, it would give you such strength to carry on! If you could only see the reward that He has laid up for you because of your faithful service and your sacrifice and your willingness to be what He wants you to be. 92.Each of you needs to move into fulfilling the powerful destiny that I have for you. But this doesn't happen instantaneously. You don't become a miracle worker overnight. It takes time and faithfulness and obedience. 93.(Dad speaking:) Hang in there and stay close till we come to the end of the road and you'll hear that, "Well done, thou good and faithful servant!"--Those servants full of faith to follow the Lamb whithersoever He leads, to forsake the world and its ways, to keep their eyes on Heaven, to walk by faith and not by sight. 94.Your thoughts should be, "Lord, I'm Your servant. I come before You and ask You what You would have me to do. I wait to hear Your bidding, and will do whatever it may be." In doing this, you'll prove yourself a faithful and wise servant in whom I am well pleased. 95.You, My wonderful servants who so faithfully devote your energy, time, effort, and love to Me and My cause, I honor and commend. 96.The more faithful you are with what I give you, the more I will want to give you, because I know you'll do something with it. 97.As you look to Me and keep your eyes turned toward Me, you'll find that the things of this world grow strangely dim and inconsequential compared to the greater truths and eternal rewards that await My faithful servants and children of these Last Days. 98.I love you, My children. Great are your rewards in Heaven for following My will, for saying yes to Me, for forsaking your life to do God's will. Well done, My good and faithful servants; you will be entering into My joy! Heaven awaits you, along with a multitude of rewards that are far beyond any thrill or happiness you have experienced on Earth. 99.Stay faithful, stay loyal, stay on guard. Stay close to Me, for the End draws near. I will be with you. I will watch over you. I will comfort and guard you in all you do, for that is My pleasure, to watch over and protect the Bride that I love so dearly.
51
100. (Dad speaking:) God takes care of His Own‚ especially the faithful ones, the diligent and the hard-working and the deserving and the good stewards who work hard at developing and investing their talents where they'll do the most good and get the best returns. 101. Join My other servants who exercised their faith and stood on their faith in My hall of fame in Hebrews 11, the faithful ones‚ those who were full of faith. 102. Darkness will cover the Earth, and great darkness the people of the Earth, but My light shall arise upon you and My glory shall be seen upon you, My loves. You will be My shining lights, those whom I can count upon, those who have not left Me to lie in the bed of other lovers, but who are My true brides and who stay faithful--that is, full of faith--even through the darkest of times, to bring My light upon the weary and worn and hungry. 103. Even if you feel you've still got a long way to go, just keep trusting Me to help you and keep you faithful and keep you fighting. I won't fail to help you. 104. The honor and rewards of Heaven given to My brides who serve Me with their whole lives, hearts and spirits while on Earth are beyond description. All of those in Heaven who witness the arrival of one of My faithful servants, one of My children of David, know that that child of David is honored by Me in a very special way; there is no denying it. 105. Your faithfulness makes My heart leap for joy. 106. How do you think the martyrs in the Colosseum of Rome felt? My promises must have looked like flat failures in man's eyes in those situations. Yet the martyrs won some of the greatest victories of all time as they simply and humbly remained faithful to the end (Rom.8:36,37). 107. (Dad speaking:) Don't forget, this time is only for a little while. It's a testing time, and it's going to pass, just as long as you stay faithful and hold on. 108. You may not be a whirling tornado of accomplishments, but (if) you work faithfully, prayerfully, and lovingly, this is what is most important. 109. It is My desire to bless you, to reward you, to give you a taste even here and now of all that I have in store for you in the future as a reward for your faithfulness to Me. 110. As you keep your eyes turned toward Me, you will find that the things of this world grow inconsequential compared to the greater truths and eternal rewards that await My faithful servants and children of these Last Days. 111. (Dad speaking:) Little things are very important to the Lord, because when you're obedient and faithful in the little things, this is a sign of your love for Him.
52
112. I will not leave My children behind, but I will carry them and tend to them, as a loving and patient Father. There are answers and miracles and promises and supply available in great abundance, for I love to bestow good things on My faithful children, especially when they are giving so much to Me. 113. (Dad speaking:) What will you say to the Lord when you come before Him at the end of this life? will you say, "Well, Lord, You gave me all these talents. I resisted the things of this world, and I invested Your talents wisely. They multiplied in my life and the lives of others many times over"? If you can say that to Him on that day, then He'll say to you, "Well done, thou good and faithful servant. Enter thou into the joy of thy Lord!" 114. (Dad speaking:) Little things are very important to the Lord, because when you're obedient and faithful in the little things, this is a sign of your love for Him. 115. Though My faithful and obedient ones shall see a thousand fall at their side and ten thousand at their right hand, they shall also see My shield of protection hallowing them about that they may walk through the fire and the storm and come out without even the smell of smoke. 116. The important thing is not how gifted you are, but that you're faithful with what you have.
