The Place Of Transition
This is a different kind of article as it was a directive to us personally to study the topic of “The Place of Transition”. We were given very specific details as how to overcome a situation we faced.
After 5 years of moving from place to place with sometimes having no place to lay our heads; we found ourselves led to go over a thousand miles to go and stay with a sister that needed a miracle and deliverance.
We were to train her and we were spoken to and she was as well and we moved out of the place we were staying in and the night before we were to leave, she changed her mind and with only a text message, left us homeless.
This was devastating and quite frankly, “the last straw”. We had had so many situations like this occur and it was just more than we could bear.
We found ourselves in a dark place. I myself felt numb and my heart was broken. It was yet again another person that I had spent hours pouring into and with one conversation with her family who had never spoken to us, they talked her out of the Will of Adonai.
I want to note that she had received numerous confirmations including detailed instructions and dreams.
It was enough to make us walk away from ministry. We felt as if no one wanted to walk in whatever Adonai led them. We felt alone.
In a way that only He can do, money came in after a few days of sleeping in the car and we were able to go to stay for a month in another town we’d never been to.
It was there that we were given these instructions and the following are my notes from my study and the instructions given to us by Adonai on how to overcome.
I will note, we harbor no unforgiveness to this sister and wish her only blessings. We have been freed from this injustice (Abba’s word, not ours) and continue to walk in Love and the Spirit.
Please read these notes and be blessed on how Abba can give instructions that will lead to your heart being mended. You can use what He gave us as a guide to help you to overcome whatever you are facing.

This section is questions that we wrote and the answers that Adonai gave to us:
THE 21 Points
Our Question: How do we complete the process of dying to self?
His answer: “You have let everything go that everyone has done to you, when you can now look at the present and your future without any feelings from the past interfering, then you will be ready. This comes from doing the things I have instructed you to do, the Word, the Word, the Word…Get saturated in My Word.
Adonai Is With Us:
Joshua 1:9 – Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for Adonai your Elohim is with you wherever you go.”
His plans for us reign:
Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you, declares Adonai, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will hear you. You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart.
He gives us His peace:
Philippians 4:6-7 Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to Elohim. And the peace of Elohim, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Messiah Yeshua.
We must trust Him:
Proverbs 3:5 Trust in Adonai with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding.
We must do it His way:
Matthew 7:13-14 Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few….Ephesians 2:10 For we are his workmanship, created in Messiah Yeshua for good works, which Elohim prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.
We must not fear:
Deuteronomy 31:8 It is Adonai who goes before you. He will be with you; he will not leave you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed.”
The seasons are necessary:
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted; a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing
We need to be in hope:
Romans 15:13 May Elohim of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of Ruach HaKodesh (the Holy Spirit) you may abound in hope.
We need to find the purpose in our pain:
2 Corinthians 1:4-9 Who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by Elohim. For as we share abundantly in Messiah’s sufferings, so through Messiah we share abundantly in comfort too. If we are afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation; and if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which you experience when you patiently endure the same sufferings that we suffer.
Our hope for you is unshaken, for we know that as you share in our sufferings, you will also share in our comfort. For we do not want you to be ignorant, brothers, of the affliction we experienced in Asia. For we were so utterly burdened beyond our strength that we despaired of life itself.
We must wait upon Adonai:
Isaiah 40:31 But they who wait for Adonai shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.
We must let Him do His work:
Jeremiah 18:3-6 So I went down to the potter’s house, and there he was working at his wheel. And the vessel he was making of clay was spoiled in the potter’s hand, and he reworked it into another vessel, as it seemed good to the potter to do. Then the word of Adonai came to me: “O house of Israel, can I not do with you as this potter has done? declares Adonai. Behold, like the clay in the potter’s hand, so are you in my hand, O house of Israel.
=======================================
Ask for acceleration and the blueprint for making the transition/dying to self faster…..
Our question: Adonai, What is the Blueprint for Acceleration?
His answer: “You must first ask Me to help you to die to self and to make the transition
You must read and study the Word like you never have before. COMPLETE SATURATION
You must fast as I instruct you
You must be on your knees and your face before Me
(asking Me to strip you of everything that needs to go)
You must ask Me to accelerate you in the area of dying to self
Create Warfare Prayers Against The Flesh Nature
(destroy the enabler mechanism)
Worship / You must live a worshipful lifestyle
You must continue working on your foundation in spiritual warfare and deliverance (fill in any “knowledge gaps”)
Pray for each other
Write down the names of every person that hurt you during this journey then rip it up as a prophetic act, indicating all the hurt, anger, pain & anguish has been destroyed”
We did this and we had well over 100 names of people that had wronged us. When all was said and done, we were free and are now in a new season. May Abba help you come into your new season however He chooses to do so. I pray this has blessed you.
