Stirrings… By Diane Hale Revelation 6:1-8 T he white horse is the horse of VICTORY won at the Cross and Jesus received the Crown at the ascension. He has already opened the scroll and even now is moving throughout the earth as conquer- or. The red horse of confusion, the black horse of judgment, and the pail horse of death have already been released but Christ and Christ alone is the conqueror of every fruit of darkness. Unlike most, I believe all that we see in The Revelation is the already finished work of God- --it’s all there waiting for the earth to come forth (in belief and under- standing--thought) out of bondage and rebirth. Those who have eyes to see already see and in seeing the heart is living IN that Revelation. The completed works allow their lives to be prophetic. Born of the Spirit of Christ, they are 'sign-posts' to the Cross of Christ. The earth and all that is in it is still living in the shadows of unbelief. Christ Himself said, “It is finished.” We are come. We have come out of the shadows into the full light of day. Much is already revealed, but as Jesus told the disciples, “I have much more to tell you, but you are unable to receive (believe) it. Every time a believer passes into greater light, it is an individual “rap- ture.” When God says, “Now,” there will be a corporate rapture, but it is not what God is doing, It is what He has already done. The “thought” of death does not belong in the mind of the believer (we are already seated in heavenly plac- es) for the believer lives “now” in everlasting life. Death has already lost. The darkness of death has already been defeated. No thought should enter our minds concerning death of ourselves or our loved ones. Thoughts are powerful and should be cast down. This moment, this day, this week, month, year or de- cade is only life -- fully lived to step out of the shadows into glorious fullness of light. We are children of Light “now.” We must be careful of “thoughts.” Thoughts hold us in the shadows but death has lost that ability, (that sting). It has no effect; therefore, we do not consider its time, place or manner. This is the great Love of God--- Joy is released in Light for the True Light is already shining!!! ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ 22 Spring
