Some are in the wrestle of their lives to see the promises of the Lord fulfilled. For me it reaches far beyond a personal promise, for I desire and long to see the Lord dwell continually with a people here on earth; the restoration of Eden. The resistance to this fulfillment is beyond anything I’ve wrestled before, though as an encouragement we must remain faithful and remind ourselves of the large picture at hand especially when we find ourselves serving a militant mission with little to no support in the natural. We see things we didn’t ask to see, experience things we didn’t know we were signing up for, such is the way of the bond-servant of The Commander of the army of the Lord.
Big wrestle for big breakthrough. Certainly I would have despaired had I not believed I would see the goodness of the Lord … the Lord reminded me last week of the verse in Matthew 11:12, “And from the days of John the Baptist until the present time, the kingdom of heaven has endured violent assault, and violent men seize it by force [as a precious prize–a share in the heavenly kingdom is sought with most ardent zeal and intense exertion].” AMPC
We may fall weak, but the Lord is strong!
THERE SHALL BE ‘the breaking in of the Kingdom which makes its way in spite of all resistance’!
The zeal and fire of the Lord is rising in His servants, those He is raising to rule alongside Him, and they will take by force what belongs to Him when necessary.
“Teach me Your way, O Lord, And lead me on a level path Because of my enemies [who lie in wait]. Do not give me up to the will of my adversaries, For false witnesses have come against me; They breathe out violence. I would have despaired had I not believed that I would see the goodness of the Lord In the land of the living. Wait for and confidently expect the Lord; Be strong and let your heart take courage; Yes, wait for and confidently expect the Lord.” Psalms 27:11-14
“After that I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse [appeared]! The One Who was riding it is called Faithful (Trustworthy, Loyal, Incorruptible, Steady) and True, and He passes judgment and wages war in righteousness (holiness, justice, and uprightness). [Ezek. 1:1.] His eyes [blaze] like a flame of fire, and on His head are many kingly crowns (diadems); and He has a title (name) inscribed which He alone knows or can understand. [Dan. 10:6.] He is dressed in a robe dyed by dipping in blood, and the title by which He is called is The Word of God. And the troops of heaven, clothed in fine linen, dazzling and clean, followed Him on white horses. From His mouth goes forth a sharp sword with which He can smite (afflict, strike) the nations; and He will shepherd and control them with a staff (scepter, rod) of iron. He will tread the winepress of the fierceness of the wrath and indignation of God the All-Ruler (the Almighty, the Omnipotent). [Ps. 2:9.] And on His garment (robe) and on His thigh He has a name (title) inscribed, king of kings and Lord of Lords. [Deut. 10:17; Dan. 2:47.]” Revelation 19:11-16 AMPC
Do not be afraid to let out your war cry, for when you do, you will breathe out the fire of the Lord! May the zeal for His House consume you!
He is worthy to be worshiped in purity, without mixture, in Spirit and in Truth.
