My Desire is That the World See Me in You.

It is quite a blessing to discover that right from the womb God choose you and ordained you for a particular purpose. This was the case of Jeremiah. And I know he was taught by the Holy Ghost for he could discern the voice of God. But before he would be launched into the purpose of God for him, he received a charge;

Thou therefore gird up thy loins, and arise, and speak unto them all that I command thee: be not dismayed at their faces, lest I confound thee before them. Jeremiah 1:17

Gird up your loins was used in respect to the garments the Orientals used. The purpose was already declared and he was commanded to rise but before the rising, there is a charge to gird up the loins.

This statement designs courage and resolution of the mind in executing God’s will. This is an inner ascendency that precedes the physical rising. It is a divine momentum that comes through meditation on the word. The Lord gave the same charge to Joshua as he was about to execute God’s counsel;

Be strong and of a good courage: for unto this people shalt thou divide for an inheritance the land, which I sware unto their fathers to give them…This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success. Joshua 1:6,8

As we meditate upon the word we are girding up our loins for the purpose of God upon us in this season. We are rising in the Spirit to fulfil God’s counsel in peace and at ease.

There is a blessing we receive every time we tune to the word. No matter how little the seed we sow each day, we are preparing ourselves for the great kingdom harvest.

Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field: Which indeed is the least of all seeds: but when it is grown, it is the greatest among herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in the branches thereof. Matthew 13:31-32

In an with The LORD, I saw The LORD dressing up a Bride, But the reason he was doing it was for the bride to rest on the Sabbath. I wondered why.

Coming out the Holy ghost led me to:

I will greatly rejoice in the LORD, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for he hath clothed me with the garments of salvation, he hath covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decketh himself with ornaments, and as a bride adorneth herself with her jewels. For as the earth bringeth forth her bud, and as the garden causeth the things that are sown in it to spring forth; so the Lord GOD will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations. Isaiah 61:10-11

And again;

For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his. Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief. Hebrews 4:10-11

Then The LORD said, “I have adorned you with my righteousness and My salvation is covering you. I AM bestowing upon you in this moment the treasures hidden in darkness.

It is a preparation for the manifestation of my peace. My desire is that the world see Me in you.

My Kingly reign will be seen as you rise from my rest. The work is already finished, I AM dressing you up to rest in my accomplished work”

Your Insufficiency is The Resting Place of My Glory

In times of restoration God does wondrous works. When God is on a restoration move, shame is completely wiped out. Instead of shame we receive double blessings and even when we are confused, we receive the double portion.

For your shame ye shall have double; and for confusion they shall rejoice in their portion: therefore in their land they shall possess the double: everlasting joy shall be unto them. Isaiah 61:7

God has declared this year as a year of restoration to the Body of Christ and there is nothing the enemy can do about it. The confusion we are seeing right now is rather a promotion into the double blessing. Even though he intends shame, it is rather turning out that we are receiving the double.

If we look through God’s eyes, instead of the shame a lot of us have grown spiritually in this season. Family relationships are being restored because we are having more time to sit together and look at things through God’s word.

For the confusion in the world a lot of souls are turning to Christ over the internet and even in home meetings, because the world is realizing that Jesus is truly the way, the truth and the life.

In the day of restoration as this, even sin doesn’t count. When we turn to God even for the sins we have committed against him, we are rather promised the double blessing;

Turn you to the strong hold, ye prisoners of hope: even to day do I declare that I will render double unto thee; Zechariah 9:12

Keeping looking to Jesus, all things surrounding us are being turned to proclaim God’s goodness. Even in our weaknesses the power of God is resting heavily on us.

We may not know but we are growing higher in dependency on Jesus.

God is magnifying weak and little things. Instead of crying over weaknesses or insufficiencies look to Jesus and give God thanks for his glory is rather manifesting in that area of your life this day of restoration.

And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 2 Corinthians 12:9

In and encounter with The LORD, I saw someone who had difficulty in speaking but a time came when the LORD turned all that he did to glory. This person who could speak with difficulty would sing and made hit songs. The glory of God magnified every little thing he did.

Coming out the LORD led me to the story of the lepers;

And there were four leprous men at the entering in of the gate: and they said one to another, Why sit we here until we die? ]If we say, We will enter into the city, then the famine is in the city, and we shall die there: and if we sit still here, we die also. Now therefore come, and let us fall unto the host of the Syrians: if they save us alive, we shall live; and if they kill us, we shall but die. And they rose up in the twilight, to go unto the camp of the Syrians: and when they were come to the uttermost part of the camp of Syria, behold, there was no man there. For the Lord had made the host of the Syrians to hear a noise of chariots, and a noise of horses, even the noise of a great host: and they said one to another, Lo, the king of Israel hath hired against us the kings of the Hittites, and the kings of the Egyptians, to come upon us. Wherefore they arose and fled in the twilight, and left their tents, and their horses, and their asses, even the camp as it was, and fled for their life. And when these lepers came to the uttermost part of the camp, they went into one tent, and did eat and drink, and carried thence silver, and gold, and raiment, and went and hid it; and came again, and entered into another tent, and carried thence also, and went and hid it. 2 Kings 7:3-8

Then The LORD said, “ Your insufficiency is the resting place of my glory. Even your groaning is coming up to my throne and returning with blessings.

Your cry for help is thundering in the camp of the enemies.

My blood sanctifies your prayers and they roar as the lion. They are coals of fire in the camp of your enemies.
I am unto to you God. Your God Your glory now glorifying you. For your shame am bringing in the double. And for all the confusion you have received the double portion.

You will again boast in the wealth of the nations.

You will yet laugh, you will be happy, you will rejoice, for I have for ordained everlasting joy.’ “

Every day comes with its own troubles. Even if yesterday we were so filled with the Spirit happy and praising God if we are not filled today the troubles of the day may come against us as though they didn’t know we are carriers of God’s power.

We have a lot of promises from the word but I see something needful that seemingly looks simple but the most difficult to do in seeing the fulfilment of God’s Promises. STANDING.

A lot of places in scripture we see the word stand and see the deliverance of the Lord. We also see the case of Israel and the Egyptians as they were faced with the red sea before them and the Egyptian army behind them!

And Moses said unto the people, Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which he will shew to you to day: for the Egyptians whom ye have seen to day, ye shall see them again no more for ever. The LORD shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace. Exodus 14:13-14

A lot of people blame the Israelites for complaining and murmuring, yes that is bad but there was a pressure. They could see their enemies right behind them and the red sea right in front of them But they could not see their God. Yet they were asked to Stand Still. All they had was one man saying to them STAND STILL and see the salvation of the LORD.

The enemy understands that one thing the heart hates is Standing Still even though it is the greatest weapon in our warfare.

We are in a situation where the fires are behind us and the overwhelming waters before us.

The truth is that if we want to look the way the Israelites looked we will murmur and complain and wish we had being left to slavery in Egypt.

But if we choose to Stand Still by looking at things from the heart through God’s word we will see the salvation of the Lord upon us.

Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee. Isaiah 26:3

In a vision of two wrestlers. A huge strong man and another man. They had a coach over them. I saw them in a training session and as the coach left the two men to train while he went to fix something in the next room.

I saw the huge strong man turn the training into a real fight without hinting the other man and was knocking the head of the man on the floor, intending to knock him off before the coach would return.

Coming out I was led by the Spirit to;

Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. Ephesians 6:11

Then The LORD said to me “Say to My Body, ‘The season of abundance is upon you but Stand and be alert, for the enemy intends to knock you off before your breakthrough arrives.

All the troubles you see today you will see no more as your heart is turned and fixed on me.

You are crossing over to the unprecedented manifestation of my glory. But hold on, what you see is a distraction.

My salvation is manifesting for you as your eyes are fixed upon me.’ “

A lot is happening, our souls are being humbled and the spiritual mind is coming alive. There is the spiritual man and there is the natural man. The spiritual man has conditioned himself to see things from the spiritual dimension and the natural man reads things from the natural dimension.

Meditation is the key to spiritual discernment. The Lord made spectacular promises to Abraham but a day came when he was to spiritually see the promises made to him before their fulfilment. Look at the statement made to Abraham;

I am giving all this land, as far as you can see, to you and your descendants as a permanent possession. Genesis 13:15 NLT

Seeing was very necessary for him in possessing the land even though it was already given to him. I don’t think there were mountains in the land of Israel that if you could stand on you would be able see the entire country, and I do not think Abraham traveled the entire country trying to see everywhere for there is no record of that.

But Abraham saw something. Instead of seeing a natural land, he left the natural man and spiritually discerned Him who was the embodiment of the fullness of God.

Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad. John 8:56

Many people think Abraham was just going around waiting without having something tangible to hold unto. What gave Abraham the power to hold on for long and to continue giving glory was the person of Jesus. He saw him and was lit up. This was spiritual but a tangible experience.

When Abraham received this revelation he got something bigger than a piece of land.
For the promise, that he should be the heir of the world, was not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the righteousness of faith. Romans 4:13

He got the entire world together with Jesus. God wants to give us more than we think. As we are on lockdown and meditating on the word, God is giving us more than just things but Him in whom all things dwell.

He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things? Romans 8:32

Go deeper through meditation on the word and begin to see that all your desires are in Christ and even before the manifestation, you will be fully persuaded that He that promised is faithful, you will be glad, giving glory.

In an encounter with the Lord, I saw the Lord take off an old chapter of a book and I saw him replace it with a new chapter.

Coming out of the encounter, the Holy Spirit Led me to;

Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. 2 Corinthians 5:17

The word behold above also indicates that we see spiritually that now all things have become new.

Then the LORD said, “Say to My Sons, ‘I have totally erased your history, see that I AM now your life.

I AM your story. I AM your yesterday, today and forever. I Am your Righteousness. I AM your health. I am Your Provision. I Am your Victory.

Walk now in your new vision and experience the manifestation of my glory.’ “

There is a time and a season to every purpose. The purposes of God do not just come to pass but the do on his own timing. Just because it is God’s purpose doesn’t mean it does not have a time of manifestation.

You may have gifts on your inside, you may even be running on in God’s will, yet you will not see the manifestation of those gifts until the timing of God comes.

To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: Ecclesiastes 3:1

You may have signs of the anointing flowing all over your hands and fire burning all over your hands indicating you are called to the Healing Ministry but despite the anointing you may pray for a thousand people and never see anyone healed until God’s timing arrives.

This is because even though you are in the purpose of God there is a time and season for the manifestation of that purpose.

A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; Ecclesiastes 3:2

The same with prayers. You may read the scriptures and see that it is God’s will for you to be healed but you may still see your symptoms fighting heavily against you. It doesn’t mean God’s word has failed, it just means God’s word is true but not according to your own timing.

He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end. Ecclesiastes 3:11 Emphasis Added

2020 is a beautiful and glorious year but things are not going to happen according to our individual timing but the LORD’s.

Watch out for a personal revival before the global shift, for out of your belly shall flow streams of living water.

He has made everything beautiful in this year but it is in His time. This is done by the LORD to check the pride of man.

God could take the Israelites through an 11 days route but he decided on a forty year route to humble their hearts.

The purpose of God may be revealed to man but often the time and season is hidden in God’s secret counsel until the period of fulfilment.

And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power. Acts 1:7

Even though we may sometimes be unsure of the timing but we are often certain of the purpose revealed.
So what do we do?

We keep up the faith, we keep sowing until the moment of harvest arrives and we are told, just like the Apostle Peter, to cast the net again into the deep for a draught.

The catch was always there – but they had to be a stretching into the deep for a superabundant catch

As we have been waiting upon the LORD, proclaiming his word even in difficult times. We have hit a new day.

In an encounter this morning, “You have entered the moment of the sudden fulfilment of my word”

Coming out of this encounter the Holy Ghost led me to;

I have declared the former things from the beginning; and they went forth out of my mouth, and I shewed them; I did them suddenly, and they came to pass. Isaiah 48:3

God is faithful. A time came in Jacob’s life when he was alone with God, and a man wrestled with him. But the wrestling was to move him to a place of authority where he would rule as God.

It is moment where many are now alone with God and wrestling but the wrestling is for promotion into the place of authority to reign with Christ.

It is not possible for any human being to willingly submit entirely to the will of God. It is only by God’s mercies that we do this but the mercies of God may come to us in a way if not spiritually discerned, we may show contempt at his workings.

I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. Romans 12:1-2

Observe the phrase by the mercies of God, the instrumentality of wholly submitting is God’s mercies.
First God allows things or orchestrates situations around us to push us to the place of reliance on him where we, because we are left with little or no choice fall before the omnipotent God in surrender.

This kind of mercy is appreciated by new converts but often neglected by brothers and sisters of long standing in the faith. Here we become so used to God’s goodness that anything contrary to acceleration is unhelpful. Instead of submitting and receiving transformation from each happening, we look for escape routes.

I am not saying we should submit to evil but look beyond the immediate and grasp the transformation hidden therein.

We often miss a powerful point in the above verses of Romans 12 which explains the reason for submission. The verse says at the beginning I beseech you therefore. The word therefore here signifies that what is to be said is the conclusion, consequence or inference drawn from what has been discussed. This takes us back to the last chapter and verse which is Romans 11:36

For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things: to whom be glory for ever. Amen. Romans 11:36

If we can have a God entranced vision of all things, we will deep from the heart thank God in all situations. We will not be doing it as a fulfilment of scripture but lessons and real life changes will be realized from each happening around us. All things will provoke genuine glory in us to God.

We are called vessels of mercy, the only thing coming to us if viewed from God’s perspective is a demonstration of his mercy.

Even when we are allowed to be tempted it is for us to manifest the grace of God resident in us to creation.

We are in a season where the mercies of God has pushed us to the place of submission where we are being transformed to prove the good, and acceptable and perfect will of God.

In an encounter with The LORD, I saw a vision of an unbeliever transformed by God’s mercy and within a short period of time, I saw him set up Churches with branches even in homes.

And again I saw another believer resubmitting wholly to the God to be transformed so he could fulfill God’s purpose him.

Then The Holy Ghost let me to;

And I will bring again the captivity of my people of Israel, and they shall build the waste cities, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and drink the wine thereof; they shall also make gardens, and eat the fruit of them. Amos 9:14

And again;

I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. Romans 12:1-2

Then The LORD said, “Say to Zion, ‘My Mercy is poured out on you for the Glory to be manifested through you.

I Am exercising my mercy towards you in this season beyond your imagination. I AM not against you but I AM birthing the reality of the word in you and making you manifest living epistles.

All things are for your sake and all things are yours.

You will fulfil my counsel in glory as I bow your heart to my will.

I AM setting the sons of Zion free in this season and they will also come and do exploits in my kingdom for I have commanded increase for Zion.’ ”

We have heard a lot been prophesied about the year 2020. Personally in an encounter with The LORD he said “Restoration” and after then I had another encounter with him where He said “what you sow you reap”.

At First it was strange to me because when you look at the word on the negative side its kind of scary. But I have come to understand.

Two years back the Lord spoke to me through Isaiah 37:30. He said to me 2018 and 2019 would be years of transitioning for many but 2020 would be for sowing and reaping;

And this shall be a sign unto thee, Ye shall eat this year such as groweth of itself; and the second year that which springeth of the same: and in the third year sow ye, and reap, and plant vineyards, and eat the fruit thereof. Isaiah 37:30

Restoration does not mean we will become negligent and not sow again. But it just means that that the harvest has already be decreed so from now on, when we sow we reap, when we plant we eat the fruit thereof. Reproach and shame now cancelled.

It is a year to invest our all into God’s kingdom.

Every believer has a new heart, we have a new heart and a new spirit. A potting soil for the word. Unrelentingly sow the word and reap a harvest of miracles. Reap the garment of praise instead of the spirit of heaviness (depression).

It is season to sow our talents and gifts for God’s redemptive work. It is a season to ferociously evangelize the world. It is a season to pursue our God given dreams like never before for we are promised a harvest like we have never experienced.

We are to keep proclaiming the word in preaching and prayers, as we do, we are sowing the word into nations, we are sowing the word into our destinies, we are sowing the word into our families, we are sowing the word into our ministries for the great harvest upon us.

In an encounter I saw a Christian in a church, this Christian kept on proclaiming God’s word in prayers with little results. But suddenly, a day came and I saw his ministry totally transformed. I saw that he would just speak a word from a distance and the power of God would fall on the congregation. People would fall under the anointing by just a word.

Coming out of this encounter the Spirit Led me to;

For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater: So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it. Isaiah 55:10-11

And again;

Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that the plowman shall overtake the reaper, and the treader of grapes him that soweth seed; and the mountains shall drop sweet wine, and all the hills shall melt. And I will bring again the captivity of my people of Israel, and they shall build the waste cities, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and drink the wine thereof; they shall also make gardens, and eat the fruit of them. Amos 9:13-14

Then The LORD Said to me, “Say to My Body, ‘My good word is going out of your mouth, and it is effecting salvation in the earth.

Keep proclaiming my word for it is procuring blessings for you. My blessings come and they will overtake you. Your barns and store houses will my blessings overtake.

Your captive sons I am setting free.

It is the time of the latter house glory where I am giving my peace to you like a river.

Keep investing, for though the vision tarries, My word will surely speak and will not lie, it will not return void but it is accomplishing your destiny.’ “

As we are wholly submitted to God through his mercies in this season God is grounding us in his love. We are seeing and understanding the deep things of God. As we rise, we will rise full of God and wonders will be seen manifesting to us and through us.

We are being tested, God is allowing us to be poked by a lot of things but he is building us up in a new way of responding.

The glory upon us has released a shaking, they way we used to see things is being changed, the way we used to respond to issues is constantly revolving to a new kingdom way response.
All this is happening because God is taking us higher. The resistance is tough because we are going up against the ordinary way of living.

To live the triumphant life in Christ is not what many think. It is often a lonely journey.

Outwardly we see the crowd but inwardly we are brought to that place where we are alone with God. Inwardly we are separated from even our loved ones, God dwells as the beginning and the end with no idols.

We are conditioned by the Spirit to receive no honour from man and we are sentenced to a life of persecution for the sake of the glory.

And Jesus answered and said, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my sake, and the gospel’s, But he shall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions; and in the world to come eternal life. Mark 10:29-30

They are three things to observe in the verses above.

First there is a forsaking of everything for the sake of the gospel. Observe that the things mentioned above are by no means evil.

You may ask, how do I forsake everything mentioned above?
I may tell you how but it must come to you by the Spirit giving you revelation.

Its a place where Christ is everything to you and you are satisfied with him. He is the first and the last. Your heart receives the revelation that he is your life and inheritance. Your affection is set on nothing on the earth but on him as your heavenly glory

Secondly, it says those things you have forsaken you will still receive all. How do you receive all? It says in Colossians 2:9;

For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.

The word translated above for fulness is the Greek word plērōma which means repletion or completion that is (subjectively) what fills (as contents supplement copiousness multitude) or (objectively) what is filled (as container performance period): (Strong’s Concordance G4138)

Take note of the word multitude in the definition above. Everything you loose is rather hidden for you in the person of Christ. Inside of him dwells the things you lost in Mark 10:29. This includes even your church congregation.

As cool as it sounds you cannot pretend your way into this. It is done efficaciously, Your affection for earthly things must be truly lost. This is what the shaking is truly all of about. This is what is happening in and to The Body of Christ right now.

The Third thing is that the glory comes with persecutions as mentioned in Mark 10:30. Persecution is the inheritance for the life of glory.

The moment your affection changes from the things on the earth to heavenly things you have moved from the ordinary way of life into the higher things of God. Here the world has become your enemy and you will definitely be hated and persecuted. All this is because you are now above the normal and usual way of living.

The problem is that we have understood persecution to only mean assault and negative confrontations.

But when you look deeper, seemingly good advice from people around you are the worse persecutions because they go deep into your heart. The seeds are easily planted. You do things that are seemingly good but not God inspired.

Oh but our God has released his Spirit of discernment greatly upon the Body of Christ to help in these last days. But we must persevere, we must be ready to loose our lives for resurrection life to manifest.

In an encounter with the LORD, I saw a vision of a Christian, he embarked on an assignment but I saw fear arising in him from voices of condemnation. Suddenly I saw him turn back from this road of faith.

But when he did, the enemy came upon him so strong, I saw him struggling to fall back into alignment as the enemy was after him.

Coming out of this encounter The holy spirit Led me to;

Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land: But if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured with the sword: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it. Isaiah 1:18-20

Then the LORD Said to me “Say to My Body ‘I have not only washed you clean with my blood but even your sins are purified as you come looking to me.

You are beautiful and spotless before my eyes. Do not fear, for I will not forsake you. I AM one with you and we cannot be separated.

Come along with me flying on The wings of Faith. Do not turn back, for the enemy awaits you. Let go of your cares and fall into the arms of My Love and Protection.

Come now, I have reserved for you the good of the land, trust my love and enjoy the feast.’ ”

This is a key season in God’s redemptive plan for his Creation. The LORD is actively involved in fulfilling his purpose upon the Church even now. But it depends on where we are standing and looking at things!

The way we look at things currently is the determining factor to our response. Just like the Apostle Paul asked the church at Corinth;

Do ye look on things after the outward appearance?…..2 Corinthians 10:7

Outwardly we may be waiting on God in the midst of chaotic circumstances but Spiritually God is on the move for us. Doing what eyes has not seen, ear has not heard and as we rise we will breakthrough into a glory we have never experienced before.

For since the beginning of the world men have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither hath the eye seen, O God, beside thee, what he hath prepared for him that waiteth for him. Isaiah 64:4

What am saying is not going to take long to happen, people will individually have evidence of breakthroughs in large proportions in their lives in the following months.

But patience is key, you can call it patience or waiting but it means one and same thing. It is the power of faith. Those who believe will not make haste. It is the power Abraham used to harness the promises.

That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises. Hebrews 6:12

God is on the move, God is aggressively on the move for Zion. A lot of us would have been so consumed with the work of the ministry, with our jobs, with our marriages that we wouldn’t have allowed God the glory to act on our behalf but The LORD is using this period to make us wait why he works.

Since ancient times no one has heard, no ear has perceived, no eye has seen any God besides you, who acts on behalf of those who wait for him. Isaiah 64:4 NIV

We are in a day the ancients longed for. Oh that we may look beyond the natural. They waited but never saw the perfection of salvation. The rest reserved for the generation of Christ, where those that enter this rest cease from all their works even as God on the Sabbath rested. And He is rather actively manifesting the finished work on the cross in the lives of these resting in his love and sufficiency. Abraham longed for this day;

For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God.. Hebrews 11:10

The Greek word translated above for builder is the word technitēs meaning an artisan; figuratively a founder (Creator): And the Greek word translated above for maker is the word dēmiourgos meaning a worker for the people that is Mechanic (spoken of the Creator) (Strong’s Concordance G5079 and G1217).

They looked for the new creation where all things are of God, where God founds and continues to work for his people as they resting in his love.

Where he that begins the good work performs it even to the coming of The LORD Jesus. He is actively at work for us as our eyes are patiently fixed upon our beautiful groom. The LORD Jesus Christ.

In an encounter with the Lord, I saw a house with two tanks filled with explosive gases. An enemy had made this plan to explode a large number of people with these explosive gases. I saw him go into this house and took two long rubber pipes connected to the mouths of these two gas tanks. He flew with them into the air intending to detonate these gases.

But as he was up in the air a believer appeared. I saw a believer, this believer walked right into the door of this house that was opened and did not do anything specifically spectacular but just patiently walked out at the other exit to this house.

People were watching in unbelief to see him and everything explode but the explosive gases couldn’t harm him but rather his presence stopped the explosion. They came celebrating this victory upon this believer.

Coming out of this encounter, the Holy Spirit Led me to Revelation 3:8-10

I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name. Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee. Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth. Revelation 3:8-10

Then The LORD said to me “Say to my Body, ‘I know it is an hour of temptation that has come upon the world, But know that I AM with you and I AM keeping you.

It is in the mind of the enemy to devour you but with your little strength you have patiently held unto my word.

Now I have opened wide before you the door of uncommon glory, now the abundance of the sea, the forces of the nations will flow into Zion.

You are my vessel of mercy, My royal diadem. I AM demonstrating my unmatched love toward you until people know and testify that you are my beloved.

They will desire your God when they see how much love I pour upon you.

Keep yourself in My Love and your hearts stayed on my Word for it is your only source of true patience.’ “

The Hand of God is mighty upon us even now. There is a level of Grace that the LORD has increased upon the Body of Christ in this time of awakening.

I tell you the truth, God is so active in our lives now more than we know it. We may be concerned with the state of the natural happenings around us, but we are right at the center of encounters with God.

Just like Jacob was troubled about his natural condition which looked seemingly miserable, yet he was in the best place. The place of encounter where the heavens were opened over him, Here, he saw the LORD and received the covenant.

And Jacob awaked out of his sleep, and he said, Surely the LORD is in this place; and I knew it not. Genesis 28:16

Do not wait for goose bumps and whirlwinds and brimstones falling on your roofs as an indication that God is with you and faithfully keeping you. Better still look out for the fire, and the overwhelming waters, the trials are the indication. The trials are saying that God is definitely with us. They are fulfilling scriptures.

The power of the name IMMANUEL is activated in the fires and overwhelming waters;

When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee. Isaiah 43:2

presently, there is this heavy pressure the enemy is releasing upon the Body because of the protracted wait. This pressure is coming with voices of condemnation. But there is a blessing God is revealing in and to us as our bedrock and a new normal experience. A relaxed kind of faith.

The Lord spoke this morning during a time of meditation and said “My word is immutable, it is the only reality, complete in itself and needs no additions. It never returns to me void but fulfills all my counsel. Awaiting its fulfilment is the highest demonstration of your faith”

What does this mean? See this kind of faith play out in the life of Jacob;
God appeared to him and made a covenant with him, The LORD promised him protection and the blessing of Abraham, yet look at his response;

And he called the name of that place Bethel: but the name of that city was called Luz at the first. And Jacob vowed a vow, saying, If God will be with me, and will keep me in this way that I go, and will give me bread to eat, and raiment to put on, So that I come again to my father’s house in peace; then shall the LORD be my God: Genesis 28:19-21

Observe carefully the last part, then shall the LORD be my God: this statement clearly shows that there were no spiritual gymnastics for him to do but he was just going to wait and see God fulfil his counsel.

The entire job was relinquished to God. He was not going to prove his faith to God but rather he was going to watch God prove his faithfulness to his word. Did God do it? I surely won’t be writing this if THE LORD failed.

At the end of his life, leaning on his staff and blessing his children he revealed the secret of his faith;

I have waited for thy salvation, O LORD. Genesis 49:18

Sarah waited and waited until the promises sounded like a usual tale to her. Even before the angels she did burst out laughing in doubt at the word. Yet her waiting was her demonstration of faith and the promise fulfilled at the time of life.

Even under the law Zechariah did not believe God’s word, though he was chastised because he was a under the old covenant yet the word of God came to pass despite his unbelief.

If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself. 2 Timothy 2:13

Even today God is keeping you and fulfilling his counsel upon your life because faithfulness is who He is. Because he changes not be rest assured that you are kept and his gifts and calling are irrevocable. God loves you, God truly loves you, God so much loves you more than you think.

He has kept you in his grace and not in your efforts. He has made Himself your faith.

You may have been weak in faith, you may have cried, panicked and stumbled a lot but hang on. Keep waiting and looking to Jesus, for this is your highest demonstration of faith.

God loves you and has you covered. His love will never fail you.

In an encounter with the LORD I saw a scene of his resurrection and I saw people rising and following him.

The Spirit Led me to this scripture;

Be silent, O all flesh, before the LORD: for he is raised up out of his holy habitation. Zechariah 2:13

Then The LORD said to me, “Say to My Body, ‘Awake for I have given you light, I have waited to see my treasure manifest in you and now I have it.

Your nothingness is my treasure. Now that you are not, I AM. My glory will now be demonstrated and the mighty silenced before me.

Awake for I AM risen in you, Look beyond your nothingness to The LORD your fullness and rise with me.’ “
