Tarry in Jerusalem…
Waiting…
The Lord told me a few days (possibly even a week or more) back that waiting releases the Anointing…
The longer I wait on Him – and it has become a more natural (or is becoming a more natural) part of my life to wait for Him – anxiety leaves me…
Peace cloaks me…
The Presence of God is a place of Peace (not anxiety)…
As we wait He moves – it releases Him to move…
I still see anxiety in me – about things which I can’t control – but these things are diminishing as He (seemingly) continually tells me to wait…
I will fill you with joy in My Presence and Eternal Pleasures at My Right Hand…
This is what He’s saying to us through that scripture which David received in the Psalms…
I was having a shower at Brisbane Airport this morning – as I’m away from home for a couple of days on a business trip – and I saw very clearly that Eternity with the Lord is a state where we experience that quality of life continually – Peace in His Presence, Fullness of Joy and Eternal Pleasures…
Last night or earlier this morning on the plane I saw that that quality of life where we live to know God shields us from whatever happens in the natural – like we’re living in a spiritual cocoon – the scripture which came to mind was – the one about the secret place – the secret place of His Presence I believe…
That place is safe… A safe haven…
There is no other safe haven on this earth apart from the Lord…
Communing with the Lord in the secret place and communing with our brothers and sisters in this secret place with the Lord as He releases these opportunities to us…
I had a beautiful, unplanned and unexpected time of fellowship with a brother from New Zealand online last night as I went back to work to prepare for this trip…
We chatted and then he just started to pray…
The Anointing fell and we were both in the Presence of God – it continued as I arrived home – He – the Lord was still there…
He is so Awesome – and He must be first – He must be first in our lives – we can love others but we must know and surrender to the fact that only He through their new self is anything – they can give nothing to us – even in their new self they can give nothing to us because their new self is “inactive” until the Holy Spirit fills it like a Hand in a glove…
I saw this on the plane this morning and surrendered to it…
It helps a lot – it puts our longing onto the Lord – onto the Lord alone (this is what I’m learning to do)…
If the Lord releases fellowship with another brother or sister – as unexpectedly occurred last night – it is a real blessing…
He knew I needed it…
I can do nothing to “make it happen” (only He can “make it happen” in His time – if He’s not “making it happen” then we don’t need it – even though we think we do – He is Enough – that is what He is trying to teach us)…
Our relationship with the Lord is “predetermined” – He told me this also – that is such a comfort – to know that He has it all planned – all the sorrow we go through – just enough to expose and remove our flesh practically from us…
Painful but necessary…
As we wait, He works…
Love You Lord… 🙂
Release Your Anointing Lord as we wait…
As we wait before You…
Increase our waiting Lord – increase our waiting…
Until it is our entire life – to wait on You…
And to “breathe the air of Heaven” by basking in Your Presence throughout our days and nights (whatever else is going on around us)…
Love You Lord… 🙂
