“I have yet many things to tell you, but you [the early bride] can’t bear [fruit] them now. However when he, the Spirit of truth, has come [at the end of the Church Age], he will guide you [the latter bride] into all truth, for he will not speak from himself; but whatever he hears, he will speak. He will declare to you things that are coming. He will glorify me, for he will take from what is mine [the masculine seed], and will declare it to you [placed into the bride].” John 16:12-14 AMP.
God’s mysteries cannot be known, until they are revealed to us.
This week The LORD has been sharing the mystery “City” is the key to a paradigm shift.
The definition of a paradigm shift is a radical change in thinking from an accepted point of view.
The Bible has a great deal to say about waiting for God, and yet we are so impatient with God’s delays.
His teaching must be recognized in order for a personal shift. I cannot emphasize this enough. I was actually reading His Word for myself before my paradigm shift.
My shift happened in December 2020 in a dream where I experienced my personal Apocalypse that can be read in Revelation. I was startled awake!
The Bible is not a book about what we ought to do as much — as who we ought to become.
That’s what the Bible is meant to do — teach, convict and transform our minds and free our souls from the enemy’s grip.
I admit I wasn’t changed in an instant, but I began to take steps towards God.
I have shared this dream before and it’s called the THE TREE-SHUR WILDERNESS .
This week The LORD sent Elijah in a dream and his message was for me personally but it applies to you too. Elijah said study the Book of Deuteronomy, talk about it and write about it!
The next morning right before I woke up, I was given a deeper understanding of his message with another dream. God is so good!
“Bring the best of the firstfruits of your soil to the house of The LORD your God.” Exodus 23:19.
My Dream
I saw a group of people standing around a hot fire and I could feel the heat of conviction over them even though it was a sunny day.
I was with my eldest granddaughter and as we walked past these individuals, I remembered being puzzled because they obviously cold not see a beautiful spacious field on their right.
They were all pushed up against a white picket fence. My granddaughter and I just walked past them to found enormous bright red strawberries.
We began to pick and eat them. We laughed as their juice ran down our cheeks and all over our hands.
I remember such a feeling of delight to have the honor of sharing this amazing experience with my granddaughter. Everywhere we looked there were red beautiful berries waiting to be picked!
Interpretation
Those resting by the white picket fence in my dream next to the fire were waiting for God and were about to have much trouble [fire] in their life because of their restless, and sometimes reckless, haste.
These one’s could not see the ripen fruit just a few feet away in the beautiful field. They were blind and simply could not see! (Deuteronomy 29)
Yet there is also another side to my dream: God often waits for us, the fire was burning but they weren’t being burned!
In fact, there was a delay. You see, quite often we fail to receive His Blessing because we are just standing or sitting by His white picket fence [religion] and accepting the flames [trials] by not moving forward with Him in a personal relationship.
These individuals in my dream are the ones missing God’s blessings because they over-wait!
If you take the time to read Deuteronomy, there are times when it takes strength simply to sit still, but there are also times when we are to move forward with a confident step.
Inside peek
Deuteronomy is the fifth book of the Bible and the final book of the Torah. In the preceding books, Israel had left Egypt and stayed at Mount Sinai for a year, where they entered into a covenant with their God.
Despite this amazing start, the Israelites struggled in their journey through the wilderness, and the entire Exodus generation was disqualified from entering into the promised land.
Deuteronomy begins with Moses standing in front of the new generation, and his job is to explain the significance of the laws of the Torah (Deuteronomy 1:1-5).
This opening scene helps us understand the design and purpose of the book. It’s a series of speeches from Moses, who calls the next generation of Israel to be faithful to their covenant with God.
Many of God’s promises are conditional, requiring some initial action on our part. Once we begin to obey, He will begin to bless us.
“I will bring my people Israel back from exile. They will rebuild the ruined cities and live in them. They will plant vineyards and drink their wine; they will make gardens and eat their fruit.” Amos 9:14
Great things were promised to Abraham, but not one of them could have been obtained had he waited in Chaldea.
He had to leave his home, friends, and country, travel unfamiliar paths, and press on in unwavering obedience in order to receive the promises.
The ten lepers Jesus healed were told to show themselves to the priest, and “as they went, they were cleansed” (Luke 17:14).
If they had waited to see the cleansing come to their bodies before leaving, they would never have seen it.
God was waiting to heal them, and the moment their faith began to work, the blessing came.
When the Israelites were entrapped by Pharaoh’s pursuing army at the Red Sea, they were commanded to “go forward” (Exodus 14:15 KJV).
No longer was it their duty to wait, but to rise up from bended knees and “go forward” with heroic faith.
Years later the Israelites were commanded to show their faith again by beginning their march over the Jordan while the river was at its highest point.
They held the key to unlock the gate into the Land of Promise in their own hands, and the gate would not begin to turn on its hinges until they had approached and unlocked it. The key was Faith.
You and I are destined to fight certain battles, and when we begin to see ourselves as God’s worthy bride, we become victorious and conquer our enemies.
As we enter the conflict, “One comes who fights by our side.”
Thank you Jesus! Through Jesus we are “more than conquerors” (Romans 8:37).
If you and I wait in fear and trembling for our Helper to come before we enter our battle, we are waiting in vain.
This over-waiting is truly unbelief.
In my case in order to move with God, I had to work for him as His servant to uncover all my misconceptions and preconceptions to get to know JESUS as a friend.
The LORD knew in order for me to move with Him, I needed to get to work and uncover His Mysteries!
For those of you envious of my dreams, God has dreams for you too! First you must step out in faith by removing everything that has more power over you than the love you have for JESUS!
Next, pray for God’s leading!
He will show you what he has designed for you to do as each of us as has a job in the Kingdom of God and then he provides everything you need to get it done!
When you read the word of God and study scriptures, there is a level of meaning that is often hidden.
These hidden treasures do not come unless we have a relationship with Jesus Himself. Those attending church tend to let their pastor interpret the Word of God for them, and religion is part of the mystery city that must be destroyed or given to GOD!
Please understand that God is waiting to pour out His richest blessings upon you.
He does this when we spend time with him, alone away from distractions!
Watch the movie “WAR room” she has a fantastic testimony for her prayer closet! She see results in her prayers and so can you! (Deuteronomy 12)
Start having fun spending time with GOD. Make a journal, draw, paint, sing… however God has designed you … spend time with GOD in this way and SHARE it!
He made us in his image, we are by his design creators too! (Genesis 1:26)
DO not keep what he has given you to yourself! Are you listening to me… That’s the enemy’s plan!
Anytime you think you are special … watch yourself! (Deuteronomy 26)
GOD loves us ALL! Even those you do not like!
“GO FORWARD” now with confidence and take what’s already planned by GOD to be yours, “I have begun to deliver. . . . Now begin to conquer and possess.”
Having said all of this, let me remind you that there are two general paths that can be taken and my dream sums it up:
The first group by the fire refuses to see and will be found unprepared and will endure great trials!
These trials come from GOD himself!
Their design is to transform you and make you turn to repent. Christ cannot transform the world and prepare the way for the coming of the Kingdom of God, if his believers are just standing at the white picket fence, letting Him do all the work! (*Deuteronomy 14-17,28)
“Each tree is recognized by its own fruit. People do not pick figs from thornbushes, or grapes from briers.” Luke 6:44.
The other group symbolized by myself and granddaughter are willing to look ridiculous among society to pick the ripen fruit.
We were rewarded and so will you be rewarded! Each in this group who welcome repentance will be the first fruit’s of GOD to help deliver/ awaken the world.
These individuals are hungry like I was in my dream to eat all the wonderful fruit given by The LORD. Hungry to see the move with God! (Deuteronomy 18) This the commission of Joshua.
“Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit.” Matthew 7:17-18.
Either way, the temple will be destroyed both individually and collectively, and there is no avoiding this fact for it is written!
Babylon [idols] is going to be judged. (Deuteronomy 13)
I want to encourage you to willingly undergo this uncomfortable process right now, if you haven’t already done so by seeking The LORD.
“He who [willingly] falls on this stone will be broken to pieces, but on whomever it will fall, it will scatter him as dust.” Matthew 21:44.
Let His Holy Spirit teach you and pierce your heart [City] while there is still time and avoid the more painful process of undergoing it when the fullness of God’s Kingdom has returned in power.
Procrastination — burying one’s head in the sand and hoping these things are not true — will be of no benefit.
Time is running out!
Each one of us must carry out the required self-introspection to uncover any lurking hypocrisy, self-righteousness, spiritual aloofness, worldly entanglement, and any other defects that have found a comfortable home within one’s city [heart/ soul]!
With all that’s been said, let me share some scriptures that will help you discover the truth as I did! As you read the provided scripture pray for understanding and eyes to see… it’s important because the enemy is sneaky! Boy is he sneaky!
But our Almighty GOD is a powerful force that when we truly seek HIM he makes a way — EVERY time!
Quick warning, once spiritual understanding is revealed …. you have been awakened to the living Christ within you!
Hallelujah and Congratulations — it’s a GAME changer!
AND everyone you know will think you are nuts because you begin to devour God’s Word!
You have entered His City of Refuge. (Deuteronomy 19)
For that’s the amazing thing about divine Truth that has been revealed, you cannot “unsee” it!
There is no looking back like Lot’s wife!
You are free to ascend with Christ every single time you seek Him!
Shalom
