"Reflections Upon Reflections" [of
The Father's Heart]
...."You, in Your great compassion,
did not forsake them in the wilderness; The pillar of cloud did not leave them
by day, to guide them on their way, nor the pillar of fire by night, to light
for them the way in which they were to go".... Nehemiah 9:19
NASB

THIS IS, WITHOUT A DOUBT, THE MOST CRITICAL
TIME IN THE HISTORY OF THE CHURCH
"critical" - of essential
importance;
Words of Prophecy:
* The hour has come wherein the thoughts and
intentions of My children shall be exposed for all to see [both righteous and
unrighteous], and all sin and rebellion shall be removed from the hearts and
minds of all those who truly love Me by the power of My indwelling Spirit - that
they might enter "fully" into their precious inheritance and destiny, in Christ.
"destiny" - The
purpose or end for which anything is created or intended;
* In this last hour My children are going to be
"consumed" by godly desire or "consumed" by self-desire. As the conflict of the
"kingdoms" escalates in this season each and every one of My children shall be
brought to the point of "absolute decision" - as to their true allegiance [the Kingdom or the world; My Will or self-will; the
fullness of destiny {Kingdom-position} or a falling far short of the Glory that
is theirs in Christ] [Joshua 24:14-15].
* True love is
divine in ALL of its ways, and leads to the fullness of destiny for all involved
[found abiding in it] [John 15:7,10a].
* The "valley of decision" is a place wherein one will,
ultimately, have to make a "quality decision" concerning moving forward in My
Will - or wilfully departing from the pursuit of My Will in order to continue to
pursue their "own" desires [agendas].
* Is is not written, "Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of
decision [Joel 3:14], and is it also not
written, "Choose this day whom you will serve" [Joshua 24:15]? O that My people would be consumed
with the "spirit of Joshua" who made the "quality decision" to serve Me - and Me
alone. As My children make a quality decision to move towards [and enter into] the "Promised Land" [the fullness of their inheritance, in Christ]
THEN I shall surely honour their choice, and all of the blessing that I have
held for them shall be released and, in the process, continually empower them to
fulfil My highest plan and purpose for their life and ministry in this final
hour.
* These are the days in which the deepest thoughts and
intentions of each one's heart shall become evident. To those who have "held
part back" from Me [through the maintenance of
self-desire] they shall be brought quickly to a point of "absolute
decision" - either for or against My highest plan for their life and ministry.
And to those who have been faithful to "hold fast the vision" [the revelation in their heart] they shall have
the deepest desires of their heart met superabundantly - in and by the power of
My Spirit [Who is the Spirit of Love].
* It is time for those of
My children who are in the "valley of decision" to set aside ALL doubt and fear,
and move out into the place of Kingdom-prosperity and positioning - a
Kingdom-prosperity and positioning that are the spontaneous fruit of one
entering in [through faith and obedience] to the "fullness" of their precious
inheritance [Covenant], in Christ. For one
step of obedience in this hour from the place of a heart that is "wholly" given
to Me will SURELY set them on the perfect course concerning entrance into the
fullness of their destiny, in Christ, while one step backwards in fear and
disobedience [a "maintained" fear and disobedience
that is rooted and grounded in pride and rebellion] - will SURELY cause
them to remain encompassed by darkness and confusion on all
sides.
...."According to the grace of God which was given to me,
like a wise master builder I laid a foundation, and another is building on it.
But each man must be careful how he builds on it. For no man can lay a
foundation other than the one which is laid, which is Jesus Christ. Now if any
man builds on the foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay,
straw, each man's work will become evident; for the day will show it because it
is to be revealed with fire, and the fire itself will test the quality of each
man's work. If any man's work which he has built on it remains, he will receive
a reward. If any man's work is burned up, he will suffer loss; but he himself
will be saved, yet so as through fire".... 1 Corinthians 3:10-15
NASB
...."Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision! For
the day of the LORD is near in the valley of decision".... Joel 3:14
NASB
We have entered into a season wherein certain [Kingdom] destinies [in Christ] literally "hang in the balance"
[could go either way - failure or
completion]in the church throughout the earth [that includes the "corporate" destiny of spiritual
environments]. Our God is "no respecter of persons" for ALL things
are judged spontaneously [automatically]
in light of His Word [Will]and
one's adherence or non-adherence to the principles therein. And, while we most
certainly know that He is a God of great mercy and extraordinary patience, it is
also certain that it is His desire to unfold the majesty of His plan for the
establishment of the Glorious Church and His Kingdom in this hour - and, thus,
the "fullness of time" has come,and He is making all things ready in this
season.
There is an ominous cloud approaching for those who have
not laid down their lives completely in their [willful]rebellion. This is, without a
doubt, the most critical [serious]
time in the history of the church and, when the "smoke [cloud]clears", it is certain that each man's
work will have become evident as to its true origin. Who [of those presently in the "valley of decision"]
repents [turns around and goes in the
right[eous] direction] in the light of these things - only God,
Himself, knows. Our task is to be found "abiding" [continually operating]in faith, love and
obedience - knowing [having a deep revelation of
the fact] that, ultimately, His "greatest" eternal benefit [whatever that may be based on the state of their
heart at the point of "absolute {final} decision" - which only God, Himself, can
define] will manifest in the lives of all those in our "sphere of
existence" [both spiritually and
physically]. |
