THE SHEPHERDESS!         DO837    25/9/79

         1.
YOU'LL GET THE WORDS, HONEY BABY, WHEN I'M GONE. You're going to be the Prophetess, & you'll get the Words. (M: But I want you to get the Words.) (David laughs:) Oh Honey, you're lazy! You want me to do it for you, because it's hard work. But when I'm gone, you'll do it.
         2.
Jesus will anoint you, Honey Baby. When I'm gone, the Holy Spirit will quicken it to you & "bring all things to your remembrance." (Jn.14:26) Oh, I'll be here as long as necessary, & then you can take over, & then Jesus will come pretty soon. It won't be very long, don't worry. TYJ! You'll have the anointing, so don't worry about it. He'll be so close & so real.
         3.
YOU'LL BE SUCH A GREAT PROPHETESS! So beautiful! (Prophecy: "The anointing of the Lord will fall upon you, & the mantle of David shall drape about thy shoulders, & thou shalt speak the Words of the Lord to My people, & they shall listen unto thee & heed thee & know that thou art the Word of the Lord.")
         4.
You'll have the anointing & Spirit of God, Honey Baby.--It's not of yourself. It comes from God, because you're yielded & you love Jesus. You'll accept it, & it'll be so beautiful! Just like me, Honey, even more beautiful! They will receive the Words you speak, because they know they come from Jesus.
         5.
Why are you crying about it? Huh? It's so beautiful, Honey! (Prophecy: "And you will give them food & you will feed My sheep as a good Shepherdess. For I will put the Words of the Lord in thy mouth, & thou shalt speak them unto My people, & they shall devour every Word that thou shalt speak unto them, & thou shalt shade My sheep & lead them & guide them unto a new World till I shall come!")--TYJ!
         6. "
It shall be a day for women, & they shall rule My people with a kind hand & gentle staff & such Words of Love, so precious, so beautiful! Thou shalt be the Shepherdess of the sheep, to encourage them & guide them & lead them in the way."
         7.
LOOK! LOOK! CAN'T YOU SEE IT, HONEY BABY? ("See how they eat out of your hand the Words of David! They shall eat the Words of David from thy hand unto the End.")
         8.
You're the Shepherdess sitting there on the hilltop feeding the little lambs little grains of corn from your hand that you got from David. You have a big bag under your arm, Honey, of all these Words you got from David. You have such a big bag of corn, & you're feeding it to them & they love it, Honey, & they come to you because they really need you.
         9.
You sit on the little hill on a little low rock, & all the sheep & the little lambs come & nibble from your hand. You reach in your big bag of your Words of David & you bring out a few little grains of corn & nibbles, & you feed the sheep & they love it, because you have the Words of eternal life!
         10.
You show the Light, & you give them Words to feed them & encourage them. Look how they look at you! ("Like a dog looks unto his Master for love & encouragement, the sheep look to their Shepherdess for the Words that fall from your hand.") Oh, that's so beautiful, Honey Baby, so beautiful!
         11.
You'll do such a good job! It's so pretty! They want every little Word that you have in your bag that fell from the old, old, old decrepit Prophet's mouth when he was here. You have all those Words in your bag. Because you have kept them & protected them, they have come to you for hand-feeding. You see?
         12.
NOW THEY HAVE A FLOOD, BUT THEN THEY'LL BE THANKFUL EVEN FOR A TRICKLE! When the sheep are starving they appreciate every little grain & every corn. Today, Honey, God is too good to them, & He floods them with the Words till they almost drown! In that day, every grain will be precious & every corn will be treasured. You will mete it out to them like tiny bits of gold & pieces of silver.
         13. --
You know that? You are going to be the stewardess of the treasures of the Words. The sheep will come to you & beg of you, & insist on being fed.--And you will be so thankful to be able to give them something to eat. Oh, thank You Jesus!
         14. (
M: Maybe we won't have enough.) Oh yes, there's always enough. There's a famine, but there's enough to keep them alive. There will be. (M: But how are we going to do it?) Well, you just reach in the bag & you pull it out & you feed it to them. It's so simple! (M: But why can't you stay here & do it? I don't know what we're going to do without you.)
         15.
You're not going to be without me, Honey--you gotta whole bag full of me!--Ha, ha! (M: But it's not like your being here.) Oh, they're going to be more starved, more starved than ever before for every Word! It's going to be better.
         16. (M:
But what will we do for the emergencies?--I mean, the old stuff is good, but you have to have new things too.) Oh Honey, it's all good forever! Forever, O Lord, Thy Word is settled in Heaven!--New & old, it will come. You'll feed them, & you'll tell them how to apply old patches to new sores. It's the same. It's still the Love of Jesus. I'll always help you.
         17. (M:
ARE YOU ENCOURAGED?) Well, you're a little bit stingy & slow, but it's better than nothing. You're lacking in confidence & faith, & so you don't give it out like you should. (M: Well, how can we remedy that?) To have more faith to feed the sheep faster. Just grab it with two hands instead of one, & feed the sheep fast, & don't worry about what it says.
         18.
Don't worry.--It's God's Word! It doesn't matter whether you understand it or not.--Just give it to them. (M: But I don't want to be stingy!--Is it going to be that way?) Well, you're stingy already. You want everything just so, & I try to tell you it doesn't matter, you have to get it out quick! They're not going to be so particular. When you're starving, you're not so particular what kind of food you eat. You've gotta give them the Word quick!--Please!
         19.
There are so many! There are hundreds & hundreds & thousands & thousands who are so hungry! Maria! Don't you understand? They're so hungry, thousands & thousands & hundreds & hundreds! Don't just give them a little tiny pinch! You have to give them two big double handfuls every time you reach in the bag.
         20.
Honey, the Words are just as good even if I'm dead. The Word of God lives on, don't you understand? (M: Can you give me some more after you're gone?) Of course. It depends on how faithful you are with what I've already given you. It depends on whether you feed the sheep or not, whether I fill your bag or not. If you empty & feed them, then I refill.
         21.
You have all these Words stored up in your bag & you could give so many many people help, but you say, "Come back tomorrow, come back tomorrow." (M: Well, if I'm going to do that, I shouldn't be the one to give them, should I?) Of course you're the one, because you love the sheep. You're just a little bit slow, that's all.
         22.
PTL! GBY! I hope this was an inspiration to you as much as it was to me!--It made me cry!--You couldn't know a more unselfish, self-sacrificial one than Maria!--But we can always do more, amen?--She loves you!--Dad.
