Jewels from Judy: A Word for Fathers
Judy Bauman
An Exhortation from God our Abba to Fathers
"Do
you know who you are, son? Man was created in My image and in My image
you reflect My love or lack thereof. You are the very reflection of God
Almighty on earth. When people look at you they see Me. When your
children look at you they either see My love, grace, mercy, faithfulness
and patience or they see your judgment, condemnation, perfectionism,
apathy, and anger as a reflection of My character. Do not allow a bitter
root to spring from you and defile many. The fruits of the flesh and
the fruits of the Spirit are very apparent. So what are you
reflecting to your children and to those you mentor? What do you reflect
to those who are subordinate to you? As an example, how do you speak of
those who are superior to you in authority?" (See Hebrews 12:15; Galatians 5:19-26; 1 Tim 2:1-4; Ephesians 6:9; Titus 3:1, 2).
"Many
desire to know exactly what I have called them to do and where they are
to be. The perfection of My plan will unfold moment by moment and day
by day as you bend your will to Mine. Do not look to the right or to the
left. Let not your hearts be troubled. Do what I have asked you to do
and then we will move on to the next thing together. Do not despise the
day of small beginnings. He who is faithful with little will be given
much." (See John 14:1; Joshua 1:7; Zech 4:10, Luke 16:10).
"Right
now I want you to listen to what I tell you. You have heard that before
the terrible Day of the Lord I sent the prophet Elijah. My Son Jesus
made it clear that John the Baptist came in the spirit of Elijah to
restore all things, and yet John clearly did not know who he was. The
angel told his father, Zechariah, but John did not understand the depth
of his calling. He did not know he was the Elijah to come and restore
all things." (See Matt 17:12, 13; John 1:21; Luke 1:11-17.)
"Now I ask you: Do you know who you are? What
was and what is the purpose of Elijah's coming? Yes, he destroyed the
false prophets of BAAL, but what was it he was to restore? What do I
desire to be restored now? Does not My word tell you? Does not My word
make it plain? The Old Testament ends with this strategic information
and the New Testament in the Gospel of Luke begins with it. So can you
not see for yourself how plain I have made it?"
Malachi 4:5, 6 Behold,
I am going to send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the
great and terrible day of the LORD. He will restore the hearts of the
fathers to their children and the hearts of the children to their
fathers, so that I will not come and smite the land with a curse.
Luke 1: 17 It
is he who will go as a forerunner before Him in the spirit and power of
Elijah, TO TURN THE HEARTS OF THE FATHERS BACK TO THE CHILDREN, and the
disobedient to the attitude of the righteous, so as to make ready a
people prepared for the Lord."
"Many
of you believe you are ready for My coming, but you are not ready. The
hearts of the fathers MUST return to the sons. The hearts of the parents
must return to the children. In the days to come My promptings will
become very pointed and exacting. A breaking is coming! The fathers are the ones closest to My reflection on earth
and I am soon putting My foot down. Those who are repentant will see
great breakthroughs in every area of their life, but those who are not
will suffer great judgment from My hand."
"The
fathers must heed and obey. This will require them to humble themselves
under My mighty right hand, but those who obey will be lifted to new
heights that will astonish even the best of them. At risk are financial blessings, healings and miracles, salvations and wholeness, and more than the mind can conceive."
"Many
have cried out to Me for healing and financial breakthrough, but what
they do not see is their relationship with their families is first on My
list. Warn the men, Judy, that because they are a reflection of My
glory on earth, it is time to align their will to Mine. The hour is
late! It is much later than most believe. Let it be done on earth as it
is in heaven."
"I
Am praying for the fathers. I Am praying for the parents. I Am praying
for you. Reflect Me well. Be who I called you to be - representatives of
My love on earth. May it be done on earth as it is in heaven." Selah
Love,
Abba
