“You need to understand whom I consider successful. Look in My Word. I came against the proud and exposed the haughty. Observe the life of Jesus. His humble presence frightened those who thought they had My heart figured out. I did things My way and confounded those who thought they were wise. They lost control. Most of My really successful people died in the arenas, lost their possessions for My sake, and touched others from prison.

"Those who would not be taught My ways judged those who were walking in them. It is the same today. Soon, however, that will change. I am raising up a holy bride in the midst of My church. She will not look successful in the eyes of most of those around her, but she will look and act like those who were successful before her. She will look and act like Jesus, while looking and waiting for Him.”

Isaiah 48:3  NIV

“I foretold the former things long ago, my mouth announced them and I made them known; then suddenly I acted, and they came to pass.”

Amos 3:3 KJV 

Can two walk together except they be agreed?

1 John 2:6 AMP

Whoever says he abides in Him ought [as a personal debt] to walk and conduct himself in the same way in which He walked and conducted Himself.

If you are in remnant, bridal training, more than likely you will be on the perimeter of most church activities for two reasons. One, you don’t want to be part of the foolishness that goes on in the Name of Jesus; and two, those involved in it want to have little to do with you.

Even though it seems that taking a strong stand for Jesus, striving to be more like Him as your priority in life, and living a crucified life is a little thing; it is not little in the eyes of the Lord. You are in training. You are being prepared. Every word that is said against you, every action that is used to ridicule your sincerity, actually strengthens your resolve and refines your walk if you allow it to do so.

Jesus will not align Himself with a whorish heart - one that gets satisfaction from anything other than Him. The successful Christian does not have an easy road. It is strewn with challenges and hardships. The road, however, is the road to bridal purity. It is the road to the heart of Jesus.

Wanting to walk the right road,
