CONVERGENCE

There has been a tangible shift coming into 2019. I’ve spoken with several who have also experienced the sense of stepping over a threshold and through an open door in the Spirit…


As if we have entered through a narrow gate and into the wide expanse of the very thing we were made for...the very thing He created us to be in Him before the foundations of the world.                           

                     
                     “This is the year of the birthright.” Brian Harrison

The last few months discussions have been filled with talk about the "New", and those who surrender to the Maker of the New Wine as He prepares us as the New Wine Skins to hold, carry, and dispense what He is pouring out in this time.

There is a sense that a key has been turned, a light has come on, a trumpet sounded,

and the purposes of the Lord that have waited on His timing are being released.

No more delay.

The time is NOW.

The momentum feels like a holy convergence is upon us. Where the shock waves are reverberating as Heaven is pressing into earth. The great cloud of witnesses, the angelic hosts, and the army of the Lord all mobilized by the Voice of our Commander and moving as one under His headship, directed by His Spirit. For only by Holy Spirit are we truly made one. This is HIS holy, true, and perfect working. We acknowledge Him and stand in the fear of the Lord, and in the absolute joy of our complete redemption as His sons!

A people that position themselves before the King in humility and sincerity…every obstacle shattered by His Truth and His Breath, enabling us to run the race with swift precision, to His desired intentions.

A new breed. A royal priesthood. A holy nation. A people belonging to the Lord.

A new creation. One new man in Him.

Firebrands. Burning ones.

Glory carriers.

I have the honor and delight of encountering and connecting with these who desire Him above all else. These who have lent themselves to Him and are inclining their ears, and hearts, to hear what He will say. His Holy Fire is burning among them and in them.

Not a man-ufactured fire, but THE Fire that IS Him!

These burning ones are Divinely connected by Him, for Him, in Him. Holy Spirit bringing us into union with the Godhead and one another. A building of God’s hand.

20“I do not pray for these alone, but also for those who will believe in Me through their word; ²¹ that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me. ²² And the glory which You gave Me I have given them, that they may be one just as We are one: ²³ I in them, and You in Me; that they may be made perfect in one, and that the world may know that You have sent Me, and have loved them as You have loved Me. (John 17:20-23)

It will not, nor cannot, be produced by the hands of man. Our Father is building us into His holy habitation by His Spirit. He WILL have His holy dwelling place.

One of the synonyms for ‘FOCUS’ from the Oxford Dictionary is, interestingly enough, CORNERSTONE. If our focus is Jesus Christ the Chief Cornerstone, the plumb line by which the whole house is being fit together perfectly, then we will organically and authentically be the House built by the hand of the Lord. (Anything else is laboring in vain.) We are a people belonging to Him, crafted by His hand, prepared to display His glory.

Keeping our eyes and hearts fixed on our Prize, our very great Reward, Jesus Christ Himself. Keeping our minds set on the eternal things above, and living from that place of knowing Him.

19 Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, 20 having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone, 21 in whom the whole building, being fitted together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord, 22 in whom you also are being built together for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit. (Ephesians 2:19-22)

The Fire of God is going to the foundations of what has been built by the hands of man, having its origin in the deception of the enemy. Father is dealing with the mixture and burning away anything that is not of Him, His Son, His planting. He begins with the foundation because He is after our hearts. It's never an external problem...it's always a heart issue.

22 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Thus you shall say to the Israelites, ‘You have seen for yourselves that I have spoken to you from heaven. 23 You shall not make other gods [to worship] besides Me; gods of silver or gods of gold, you shall not make [these lifeless idols] for yourselves. 24 You shall make an altar of earth for Me, and sacrifice on it your burnt offerings and your peace offerings, your sheep and your oxen. In every place where I cause My Name to be recorded and remembered [through revelation of My divine nature] I will come to you and bless you. 25 If you make an altar of stone for Me, you shall not build it of cut stones, for if you use a chisel on it, you will profane it. 26 Nor shall you go up to My altar on steps, so that your nakedness will not be exposed on it.’
(Exodus 20:22-26)

This house of the Lord is not dependent on physical location, is not defined by human resources or limited by geographical boundaries, and is completely outside of time as known on earth because the Kingdom we are of is outside of time.

It’s not an event, not an external happening, but it is the inward transformation of being one with Him (His fire, holiness, and glory), and moving with His heart in fluidity. His Kingdom within us being manifested outwardly.

A bride made ready.

A mobilization taking place.

A river is flowing.

A fire is burning.

An army is rising.

A choice being made.

Tides turning.

Hearts healing.

Lives waking.

Wine overflowing.

Oil Pouring.

Holy convergence.

Consummation of the ages.

The Heavens are stirring.

Angels are positioning.

Sons are standing.

Our King is coming.

Maybe you have been standing, waiting to step over the threshold. Maybe you have stepped over and feel the pressing of the narrow gateway as you enter in. Or maybe you’ve transitioned into the wide expanse. At whatever place we find ourselves, I pray we are encouraged in His process in us, for us, and through us.

So thankful and in awe of how Holy Spirit is preparing us, forming us, empowering us.

So grateful for you, His glorious ones, who are marked by Love and set apart for Him.

God is building a house -- it has no walls

It reaches around the world

A house built of people, and not of stone

A house of worshippers faithful and strong

God is building a house -- building a house

On a sure Foundation

God is building a  house -- building a house

It spreads to all nations

The Light of His glory is being revealed

The Love of His heart is being made known

To lead this generation of people to His throne

God is builiding

God is building

God is building

Building a house!
