COVENANTS, THE DIVINE RIGHTS OF KINGS,PROPHECY ON THE EDGE,ACTIVE REST AND MONKS
Hello to all,
Here are some thoughts I have had over the summer put together which hopefully will interest you in this season!
Covenants
Many covenant relationships are going through the fire. I saw many gold rings, very precious and beautiful which represented covenant relationships. They had been taken from fingers and were being thrown into the fire by the Lord. I heard the Lord say that he was refining and purifying our covenant relationships -some were expanding in the heat, some were contracting, some were charred almost black I noticed though that they were forming rings for each of our finger – true mature Ephesians 5 – fold ministry.The Lord wants maturity in our covenant relationships and it is He who is behind at this time. He is the one who decides on this earth who we need to be connected with and how these partnerships fit together. We will come out of the fire purified again but there will be some changes.
Divine Rights of kings
Three times over the summer different people said to me in different settings that there was a real issue over the divine rights of kings to rule. In these historical settings the insistence of various European kings to be regarded as God’s appointed agent, not subject to the laws of the land or any government had led to wars on a vast scale . The surface issue might have historically been the differences of religious beliefs but underneath was a man wanting to be absolute dictator. We need to watch for this in the world and in the Church. God is breaking our shoulders so that the government can be on HIS shoulder. Some strangleholds of power need to go in our lives, churches and nations.
Active Rest
One of my friends received this expression as where we are meant to be at with the Lord at this season. Not passive, not asleep but keeping watch. I heard the Lord say it was like the soldiers who have to come to attention before their commander but where the commander tells them to be “at ease” so that he can talk to them more informally and intimately while they are at rest but still listening and alert to any new orders. We need to obey or we can miss some important instruction at this time. It may come more easily as we rest but it will be much needed.
On the Edge
Fresh prophetic revelation is being released – Rev 10. The angel between the water and the land is releasing scrolls and we need to be aware of a radical change in our mind set about receiving and giving words. Jesus is about to show us that He IS the Word. ( Dream is written in full separately)
Modern Monks
We have been doing much research into past moves of God involving monastic communities – often those who lived on the edge of our world and lived out being in this world but not of it in a real sense on an everyday basis. There are some keys for us here -certainly in Europe.
This is what I heard the lord say about the monks.
“There is a wind and a change of season which will propel you higher and to where you need to be. There are keys in monasticism you need but they need to move further on and further out. There is a race of my followers who will be as salt and light in dark days. They will group together and will camp on the outer limits of where darkness and light come together. They will be the fabric I will use to hold and pull things together. They will truly understand the new and the old wineskins in these days. That old wine was honourable and good but the skins are not for today. The store holder brings out of his treasure things old and new out of his treasure. He display and honours the past but he does not fear the new. “
Manuscripts of old were written on SKINS -they cost. There was sacrifice. New manuscripts will cost too. The rhema word will continue and take up again what was forgotten and lost. New Nazirites to finish the task.
Watch the trade routes
God is about to reveal more than we have thought here. Watch the trade winds –we are going to have to be very sensitive as a window opens to allow us to move in the areas of trade in a new and different manner. We will have to choose whether to change direction or not. The wise virgins took oil at the right time. We need the wisdom to make the right moves at the right time so that we will not be caught out with no supplies when it matters.
