You have been given a short reprieve or respite, to refresh yourself for battle. Do not be found drunk in the streets, foolishly using your time. For the weight of the TRUTH that is coming, will crush you if you are not prepared. Read my word every day, eat well and rest when needed. The time for not making first things first is over.
Time and circumstance don’t exist in heaven, only my word. In the beginning was the word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God (John 1:1). And this verse still holds true today. Surely the Lord God does nothing unless he reveals his secret counsel (plans) to His servants the prophets (Amos 3:7). The question becomes, are you listening? Or have you turned a deaf ear and a blind eye to the TRUTH when you hear it. Holy God of Israel, have mercy on your people, and let us hear your voice once again.
Will you not revive us again, that your people may rejoice in you? (Psalm 85:6). He has stretched his hand out over the sea, he has made the kingdoms tremble; the Lord has given a command concerning Canaan to demolish it’s strongholds (Isaiah 23:11). Stretch forth your hand from on high; rescue me and deliver me out of great waters, out of the hand of aliens (Psalm 144:7). The Lord has heard our cries from heaven, and now paces the floor with anticipation. The time of recompense is upon us. I hear, Man your Battle stations and don’t be moved!
Therefore, put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and having done all, TO STAND! (Ephesians 6:13). The roar of the waterfall that you hear is my army preparing for battle. Wave after wave of my spirit is being poured out like never before. There will be no excuse for being caught unaware. Saying, Lord, Lord, we did not know. He will say, away from me you idle and lazy servant.
Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, making the best use of the time because the days are evil (Ephesians 5:15-16). If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you (James 1:5). The time to seek the Lord‘s counsel is now, lest you stumble and fall. So if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don’t fall into a pit (1 Corinthians 10:12). No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind.
And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure(1 Corinthians 10:13). The season of open doors that you have experienced, some of them have simply been escape hatches. Trust that I know what I am doing, you only have to walk through and wait. A many a dream has been birthed in the hallway, don’t abort with premature delivery.
Wait on the Lord, be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the Lord (Psalm 27:14). While it may be time for an army charge, does not mean it is time for the full maturity and manifestation of your dreams and purpose. Let God perfect you as a mature saint. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything (James 1:4). Trust the Lord that when the time comes, you will be released from the gate.
With the speed of a thoroughbred, the roar of the lion of Judah, and the vision and ability to soar of the eagle. But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet I show you a more excellent way (1 Corinthians 12:31). He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God (Micah 6:8)....
