Recently I heard the Lord say, ‘I am exposing and bringing down exalted opinion, and exalting My wisdom.’
OPINION definition: ‘A view or judgement formed about something, not necessarily based on fact or knowledge.’ (Google)
As I leaned in and listened to the Lord, I heard:
‘My people, the exaltation of man made opinion has become a form of worship in My Church. There are many who are exalting their own opinions and holding it as ultimate truth, and it is rooted in pride. I am bringing forth an exposing and a shaking to reveal exalted opinion of man.
I say unto you, these are the days where you will see My wisdom exalted and My truth exalted in ways you have never seen before. I say unto you, that I am moving swiftly in this hour to expose the exaltation of the opinion of man. I say unto you, if you continue to live deeply rooted in your own opinions and with a fortification within your opinion and living unteachable, you will not see My Glory. You will not see honour.’
I then heard these verses in the spirit:
‘The source of revelation-knowledge is found as you fall down in surrender before the Lord. Don’t expect to see the Shekinah glory until the Lord sees your sincere humility.’ (Proverbs 15:33 TPT)
‘A man’s heart is the proudest when his downfall is nearest, for he won’t see glory until the Lord sees humility.’ (Proverbs 18:12 TPT)
‘Before destruction a man’s heart is haughty, but humility comes before honour.’ (Proverbs 18:12 ESV)
‘I say unto you, My dealings are coming upon the opinions of man that are rooted in pride and the opinions of man that are masked as My revelation. I am dealing with the altar of pride-filled opinion in My Bride. I say unto you, My people, that in this hour I am calling you to a depth of humility and teachability in the spirit that you have not walked in before. I say unto you, that I am unravelling the deception that is flowing through deep-rooted, pride-filled opinion that comes in opposition to My Word and My ways.’
‘As the Scripture says, “Who has known the mind of the Lord, or who has been able to give him advice? No one has ever given God anything that he must pay back.” Yes, God made all things and everything continues through him and for him. To him be the glory forever! Amen.’ (Romans 11:34-36 NCV)
‘I say unto you, My people, in this hour you must bring your opinions to Me and allow me to TEACH YOU. I say unto you, that the exaltation of pride-filled opinion in this hour in My Church has grieved me greatly. I say unto, that you have the mind of Christ (1 Corinthians 2:16) and I am inviting you higher into the place of hearing, receiving and perceiving My thoughts and knowing My mind.
‘My fire is falling upon pride-filled opinion. My fire is increasing on pride-filled opinion. My fire is falling on the wildfire spread of man’s opinion in this hour, and I am going to release unprecedented demonstrations and revelation of My wisdom in this hour to those who will humble themselves, those who will ask for My wisdom (James 1:5) and those who will HUMBLE themselves under My mighty hand and My wisdom.
‘I say unto you, My people, that much has been built in this hour on opinion rather than My Word, My leading and My unction. My fire is going to consume those places where much has been built on opinion and I say unto you, My people, where opinion has been used as a weapon against one another, I am coming to deal with the injustices done within
My Church rooted in and from pride-filled opinion that is not My heart and not My ways. I am calling you deeper, My Church, into My heart and into My Word. Humble yourselves and allow My Word and My revelation and My heart in this hour to REFINE YOU. I am raising up a victorious Church who stands in MY TRUTH and MY OPINION, which is ULTIMATE TRUTH.
‘I say unto you, My people, I am drawing a line in the sand in this hour and I am calling you, My people, to devote yourself completely to My opinion and My Word in humility. You must choose where you will live. Where deep-rooted pride keeps My people from the repentance of opinion that is against My Word, I will give you over to your opinions.
Where you refuse to repent for pride-filled opinion and judgement, I say unto you, you will be pinned by your own opinions, unable to move forward into the new things I have for you. There is a maturing into My mysteries that I am bringing My Church into in this hour, and pride and holding onto and fighting for your own prideful opinions will prevent you from entering.
‘The hour is urgent, and I am not raising up a Church rooted in her own opinions:
I am raising up a Church that is branded and marked by My wisdom, lives in deep intimacy and is teachable in heart. Where pride-filled opinion has done much destruction in My body, I am now bringing forth MY DEALINGS and I am raising up a Church who is completely surrendered and devoted to seeing My Glory and MY wisdom exalted to the highest place in their lives and in the earth.
‘I am calling you to stop dancing with your own opinions that are in opposition to My Word and My ways, and to allow Me to bring you deeper into the divine dance with My Spirit to LEARN My ways, KNOW my mind and see My wisdom exalted. My people, there is a greater dying to self happening in this hour: to carry, receive and walk in My wisdom.
Those who live and walk in the awe and wonder of who I am, walking with Me in great reverence, recognising their NEED for My wisdom and the limitations of the human mind and heart and wisdom, and they cry out for wisdom and intercede for revelation and My insight: these ones will arise in the earth in this hour, carrying My wisdom and strategy in unprecedented ways.
‘I am looking for those who will treasure My wisdom, and there are many in this hour who treasure their own wisdom and opinion above mine. I am calling you to allow My Spirit to examine you deeply and your opinions (Psalm 139:23-24) and allow a deeper refining to happen in the place of repentance. I have GIVEN YOU My mind (1 Corinthians 2:16) yet many continue to choose to walk in and delight in the ways of their own minds.
My people, do you perceive the weight of the invitation before you in this hour to walk in My wisdom and walk in the mind of Christ? Wake up, My people: be AWAKENED to the depth and urgency of this season to hear, receive and walk in MY WISDOM. I am calling you deeper into surrender, deeper into humility to KNOW My ways and KNOW My mind, and oh, My Glory that they shall carry and see in their midst, in the outworking of My wisdom and My ways.’
