It has not ended.
The Church will be one in spirit and Truth. We will be one in Christ.
This is bigger than any one individual. It's about the purposes of the Lord.
It is about what he has planned for this last harvest period.
It is about the strengthening of the Church to prepare and win the souls of men.
It is not about the messanger, it'sabout the message. It is about his will getting done.
Yes it is hard.... very hard on the flesh but it was never supposed to be by the flesh.
As the Word of the Lord to Zerubbabel: "Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the Lord of hosts." Zechariah 4:6
Arise sons of Jacob!!!!
We put our hands to the plough shall we now look back? The Lord started a thing with us by his spirit shall we now stop?
Shall we sin in getting distracted and now sin in abandoning the good work of oneness he started in us?!
Will you because of the humanity of the messanger abandon the message?!
Will you because of the weakness of the flesh of men, lose the drive into the word and person of Christ the Holyspirit ignited?
Will you because of the stupidity of dissension abort the drive for souls?
Will you forsake the 'looking unto Jesus' - the eternal perspective- because of the wiles of the evil one?
Brothers and sisters, we are bigger than this! We are the actual Body of Christ!
We are ordained to victory! That is our calling.
No not the messanger - that's not the focus, hold tight to the message for it is true.
Have the hands of Zerubbabel not laid the foundation of this house? Well, this is what the Lord says: his hands shall also finish it!
The princes and fathers of Israel are Zerubbabel and it's chiefs are the leaders and ministers.
"Yet now be strong, O Zerubbabel, saith the Lord; and be strong, O Joshua, son of Josedech, the high priest; and be strong, all ye people of the land, saith the Lord, and work: for I am with you, saith the Lord of hosts' Haggai 2:4
If the Lord was with us at the start, has he now left?
If it was his word at the start, has it now changed?
This are the days of the Church.
The days of oneness.
The days of unity.
The days of 'by His Spirit '.
The days of individual and collective high praise and spiritual worship. The days of the Scribes, Teachers and teaching Pastors.
The day of the Word of God.
The day of the glory of God covering the earth as the waters cover the sea.
Did you think the Lord changed His vision?
The Habakkuk 2 (3 & 14) vision was predicted for an appointed time and that time is NOW.
The messager is human, but the message is not. KEEP the message! Yes the vision was for an appointed time but that time is NOW!!
So where are you scribes?
Where are the elders?
Where are the teachers of His word?
Have they all gone home? Have they gone back to their houses, projects and vineyards? Have they taken their hands off the plough? Have they gone back the way they came from? You were never meant to look back!
You were meant to go forward!
The Lord -the banner Israel- has gone ahead. He leads from the front, what are you doing looking back oh Israel?! What are you doing abandoning his vision?
'Did I send you back?" asks the most High.
Did I tell you the work was done ? Did I say the mission has been completed? So why are you looking back? Why is your hand off the plough? And you with your heart dismayed, why? Does it end before I give the word? Can it end without my word accomplishing the purpose for which I sent it? Look up! The clouds are full!
Look around! The harvest is ready to fall! Look within, the fire is already to burn; the rivers are ready to flow.
Have you seen the rivers flow out of you yet? Then why stop?!
"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
I ask again. Where are the scribes? Where are the teachers of the word? Where are the leaders and fathers of Israel?!
Where ARE you? Should you not now raise up and fulfil His word? Should you not now lead in earnest? What are you waiting for? What is Barak waiting for? What are the chiefs and armies waiting for? The word has gone forth... ACT.
Teach the word.
Lead in the word
Raise the banner.
And
Build the Kingdom.
The chariots of God are tens of thousands and thousands of thousands; the Lord has come from Sinai into his sanctuary.(Psalm 68:17)
Is this the time for rest? The time for slumber? The time for folding of hands? Is this the time to give up Oh elders of Israel?
