To His Majesty

“I am your friend……your keeper……do you believe that?
then be still……all these years I have asked you to do this………..I don’t need your help…….I need you to be still……….and trust me……..this is about trust, my son…….not about doing……..trust me……………when you get to that place where you are safe in my arms…….then you will do and it will come together……..

Even in spite of yourself….”

I am a pioneer………I am used to finding things first………finding them long before anyone else finds them………but being a pioneer means doing things by yourself and being misunderstood. But you cannot allow yourself to use that as an excuse……you have to be willing to be a novice and take criticism from anyone and use it as a launching pad for learning new thing about what you are pursuing.

One of the things you learn with God is that he will show you something about the future…..but you never get there the way you think you should……you go an unexpected way………why? because God is outsmarting the enemy……if God went the way you expected, you would run into an enemy ambush……so to avoid the enemy, God does it weird…..which means you spend a lot of time without a clue walking by faith, thinking……God…..where are you going????

Then there is the fact that he never means what he seems to mean. If God says “I am going to make your secure in your position” that doesn’t involve other people…….that is the Foghorn Leghorn Scenario. That’s where the rooster Gets yanked by a rope through a hole in the wall and all his feathers come off, and he comes around the other side with nothing on and says to himself “fortunately I keep my feathers numbered for just such an emergency….”

I’ve been there too many times….

Going new places means not making assumptions, and not living in the framework of the past. The hardest part of following God is that there is no security in what He is doing…..only in who He is. And those who would put security in the forms and traditions of the past will have trouble in this next season of time……because God is doing a very new thing…….He is rebuilding the tabernacle of david…..and that means creativity………….that means different.

Get ready for a real ride…….we are in undiscovered territory at this point. So what does that mean?

There is a new testament-historical representation of passover….that’s Jesus on the cross. there is one for Pentecost…..that is in the upper room. But there isn’t one for tabernacles…..because the first century church never entered in to that. In 325ad the church married the state and went into a wilderness season………where paganism was mixed with Christianity and Church was mixed with state………..

1200 years later God begins a Joel 2:25 process when Martin Luther stands at the diet of Worms in 1521 and declares his sola scriptura and begins a reforming process that retraced the feasts process………first with martin luther and the feast of passover……..then charles finney, George whitehead-John and Charles Wesley and the feast of unleavened bread……..then John G. Lake, William J. Seymor and others with the feast of pentecost………then William Branaham and others in the 50s with the feasts of trumpets……….now we are experiencing the day of atonement with the cleansing of the temple—our doctrines and ideas getting pruned…………..in preparation for the manifest presence of God.

we stand at the banks of the river Jordan and prepare to enter into a land flowing with milk and honey, but protected by giants….the sons of anak……..and to fight the enemies in the land we will need the manifest presence of God………..God tabernacling with His people……..

1700 years later…..we have restored the doctrines of the faith and we are about to enter into a season whose biblical parallels are represented by Joshua and the Conquest of Canaan, and Nehemiah and Ezra building the temple. Great Glory, Great Power and Great Blessing, but Great Foes and Great battles ahead of us……….Very interesting indeed………

God tabernacling with a body of people…….no less than the pillar of fire…….the whirlwind of God’s presence…….in other words…….the Big Dance is coming……….

Are you ready to dance with Him?

do you believe I have no way of making this path straight? That I am not capable of bringing them in to the place I see them to be? Of course I do. but not by your way……..it is as you say……if you could predict it……..so could the enemy……..but it comes another way and in another place……..I know you want to settle things in your own heart……….I know you want to help them to see……..but they will get frustrated by such teaching because they cannot see it in the proper context………they must first be brought to the place of peace, the place of hope and the place of My Presence where their hearts become at rest in who I am and who I am for them……

God’s order is laughter, singing…….joy in the Holy Spirit and a hope overflowing with life and fullness……..It means truly believing…….deep down……..that you can make it.
