called to use our time to promote the building of the Kingdom of our Father .
Ephesians 2:19-22 ; “ Now , therefore , you are no longer strangers and foreigners , but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God , having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets , Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone , in whom the whole building , being fitted together , grows into a holy temple in the Lord , in whom you also are being built together for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit .”
Leaving to follow ; I had no idea when the Lord told me to shut down my ministry 3 years ago , what it would take to prepare me to be sent by God . Jesus not only led me away from what I understood to be a good ministry in leading people into a deeper relationship with the Lord , but over the next several years I was also asked to sell all that I had in order to follow Him .
Over the course of those three years I spent more and more time with the Lord , which continued to lead me into a much deeper relationship with Him . The progression has never stopped as the Spirit of the Lord continues to speak deeper things to me about His love toward me , about His people , about what is coming and how more things will come together and work out in the future .
As the Lord does this , I continued to discover deeper places of intimacy , which caused me to want more . Looking back , I realised I was in the beginnings of discovering that Jesus was leading me back to where Adam and Eve lived and dwelled with the Lord daily , a place where the presence of God and the realms of heaven become one with us . We also walk back into realms where sickness and disease are healed and restoration occurs everywhere we are sent .
How unfortunate it is that most people have tried to put God in a box . He ’ s been treated like some sort of a genie as people want instant gratification from their prayers , and answers to all of their needs ; I call this ‘ the superficial fast food society ’ that seeks selfish needs and desires . Revelation 3:17- 20 ; “ Because you say , ‘ I am rich , have become wealthy , and have need of nothing ’— and do not know that you are wretched , miserable , poor , blind , and naked — I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire , that you may be rich ; and white garments , that you may be clothed , that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed ; and anoint your eyes with eye salve , that you may see . As many as I love , I rebuke and chasten . Therefore be zealous and repent . Behold , I stand at the door and knock . If anyone hears My voice and opens the door , I will come in to him and dine with him , and he with Me .”
God is a Father who absolutely adores us , wants only the best for each of us and loves to have His children close to Him ; which is the statement made clear in vs . 20 , as we are invited to dine with Him .
To buy gold refined in the fire means we must lay down everything at the cross . The fire from heaven is God ’ s love that purifies His temple to become like Him . The basic plan is in leading us back into intimacy with the Lord Jesus and each other , a place that brings us back into His Father ’ s presence . This too is the garden where we walk back into the heavenly realms God created us to dwell in , realms that I have been experiencing since the Lord led me back .
Our primary goal is to build an Ark ; which is a covenant
relationship such as Noah had . “ But as in the days of Noah were , so also will the coming of the Son of man be .” Matthew 24:37 .
Noah heard from the Lord that there was a massive storm approaching so he prepared . We have also been warned of the coming storms called the Seven Seals , the Seven Trumpets , and the Seven Bowls of God ’ s judgments . ( see Revelation )
For years the Lord has been speaking to me through dreams and visions regarding these and recently said that they would no longer be postponed . The emphasis of the coming storm has been placed upon Revelation 6:5-6 , regarding the third seal , and natural disasters .
The world ’ s economic system is an evil force that is coming under God ’ s judgment and all that are involved in it will suffer to a degree . The shaking that is coming is called the great tribulation , which is also something we need not worry about if we have built our ark unto the Lord .
Fear not , for Noah found safety in covenant with God and so his entire family was saved . God is our Father who loves and saves us from trouble . He does He bring judgment upon those who follow after Him but brings us into the greatest blessings found in the garden ; the paradise of God where the heavenly realms bring healing , wholeness and harmony to us and our families . God is love , seek Him with all your heart with the understanding that He adores you and continually wants the best for us all , which is why He gave His One and only Son , Jesus Christ . p
