6-19-2021 The Watchman Part 2

(Revisited)

 

Though I connected it with the church I attend, what Father has called the “Watchman Prophecy” applies to the whole body of Christ.  All the denominations, all the fellowships that fly under the banner of Jesus Christ.

Again, what the Lord said to me is in bold, what I thought or that which helps set the stage is in

regular type.  And, as in part one, I have separated lines out for easier reading. Also, once I’ve

shared the third and final part of the Watchman, I’ll share what Father has given me towards its

overall meaning, that is if you haven’t already started ‘getting the drift’.

On 9-26-2014 Father gave me the second installment of what would turn out to be a three

installment project.  Didn’t know that though until the end of the month.

As I was I was sitting in my living room in the big overstuffed green chair, praying in the

Morning:

      I have more to share.

      OK, Father.

      Remember the watchman?

      Yes, Father.

      Look out there.  What do you see?

      I looked out my front window at the darkened sky and saw several rays of sunlight shooting

across underneath the very dark storm clouds.  I’ve not see the sky that dark since nor do I remember the skies being that dark any time prior to that day.

      I see a world in turmoil.

      And so it is.  What else do you see?

      I see that you have shown us rays of sunshine in the midst of all that darkness.

      Remember Elijah and his loneliness?

      Yes, Lord.

      And what did I say to My servant?

      7000 had not bowed their knees to other gods.

      I have My number. 

      I always have My number of those who truly love Me

      and serve me

      and who will not turn their hearts away from Me towards the world

      so man will still have his beacon, his lighthouse. 

 

      Consider, My son, the gifts I have given man are merely tools to comfort and guide him

      until I return. 

      They are tools to help man come back into My fellowship. 

      They are tools to learn how to live in My love. 

      Seek My Holy Spirit within.  Use those tools well. 

      Don’t quench the Spirit but rather yield to Him so He can work My work through you.

 

      I have an army. 

      I’ve always had an army

      but I want My children to live in My love

      so they can truly be the offspring of their Father. 

      I want the world to see My love so that their hearts might be convicted. 

      I want the world to see My love that their hearts might be ashamed. 

      I want the world to see My love and even though many will wax colder

      some might come into My Kingdom because their hearts have melted. 

      The gifts are good but yet they are only tools

      to express My love to the world. 

      live in My love.

Again here are scriptures Father gave me in support of the prophecy – after the fact, of course 

Gen. 11:13-16             I will establish my covenant with you (Noah) that neither will the flesh be

      cut off due to the flood waters but neither shall the flood waters destroy the earth anymore. 

      This is a token of My covenant … for perpetual generations.  I set my bow in the cloud as a

      token  between you and Me and the earth.  And though the clouds will come, the bow will

      also be seen.  And I will remember My covenant between Me and you and every living

      creature that I will no longer bring the flood to destroy the earth.  When I see the bow, I will

      remember My everlasting covenant…

 

      The bow represents God’s covenant with us and if you notice that rays of sunshine will streak

      across the sky beneath those storm clouds as they dissipate paving the way for that colorful

rainbow of promise to appear.  When things seem their darkest, God will show us hope so we can push forward.  That ray of light, that hope is, of course, Hi provision to return into His fellowship and Jesus Christ is the way!

 

 1 Kings 19:4, 14, 18   Elijah fled Jezebel and Ahab who had slain all the prophets in Israel and

      were now after Elijah.

 

      V4             (Elijah) went into the wilderness and sat under a Juniper tree and requested that he

            might die …

      V14           … the children of Israel have forsaken Your covenant, thrown down your altars, slain your prophets and now as the only one left they seek my life.

      V18           Yet I (God) have left seven thousand in Israel who have neither bowed their knees to Baal nor kissed him.  (the kiss is a sign of affection or commitment)

 

John 15:10                   If you keep My commandments, you shall abide in My love. (‘nuff said?)

 

Matt. 5:14-16              You are the light of the world … let your light shine so before men

 

                        We bear the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the world so people might see God’s love and attain eternal Life, fellowship with our Father – forever.

 

1 Corinth. 12:1, 7        I don’t want you ignorant concerning Spiritual gifts … the manifestation of the Spirit is given to everyone to profit everybody.

 

            Everybody has a unique gift or talent and God has given us that gift to build the ‘whole’ body of Christ or, perhaps.  We may be responsible for even just our small portion.  Nonetheless, any gift is used to build the body of Christ!

 

1Thess. 5:19                Don’t quench the Spirit 

            Don’t tell the Holy Ghost ‘no’ but rather yield to Him and follow His lead.

 

Matt. 24:12                 (talking about the last days) … and because sin abounds, the love of many will wax cold.

            Because God has been ‘seared’ from the consciousness of man, some won’t even listen to the ‘life saving’ good news.  But many, who are truly seeking the peace that only God can give, will open their hearts to Him and receive His love.

 

1 Corinth. 7:13-16       (paraphrased) If a man or woman is married to an unbeliever and if it pleases the unbeliever to stay with the believer, stay together and don’t leave for how do you know that the Lord might use you to bring that unbelieving spouse into the kingdom of God?

            The situation is not exact but the principle still works:  I would not suggest remaining in a violent, abusive situation (for personal safety sake) but when we live our lives for Christ before those around us, how do we know that we aren’t God’s intended vehicle for drawing any others into His kingdom?           

 

Matt. 27:54                 Now, when the centurion and those who were with him, watching Jesus (on the cross), saw the earthquake and those things that were done feared greatly saying “Truly, this was the Son of God.

            Even the gentiles saw the signs and confessed.

           

Luke 13:17                  (Jesus had just healed the woman afflicted by a spirit of infirmity for eighteen years.  The rulers of the synagogue rebuked Him for healing on the Sabbath (don’t work on the sabbath).  Jesus responded reminding them that they would rescue an animal in trouble on the Sabbath so why shouldn’t a person be healed on the same.

            And when He had said these things His adversaries were ashamed …

 

Matt. 24:12                 (speaking of the end times Jesus says)  and because iniquity shall abound,

            the love of many shall wax cold.

            Yes, I said this twice – so listen up!

 

James 5:20                   … he who converts the sinner from the error of his ways saves a soul from death and hides a multitude of sins …

 

We truly cannot convert anyone to God, but by sharing Jesus with another person might be just the thing that other person needs to give his heart to Jesus.

 

Ephesians 4:12-16       (gifts are given) … for the perfecting of the saints, the work of the ministry, the edifying of the body of Christ … unity of faith … knowledge of the Son of God … to a perfect man, to the measure to the stature of the fullness of Christ … increase the body to the edifying of itself in love.

 

            True love builds the body of Christ (and others) up, helping us to conform to His image (LOVE)

Father gives us courage and strength to continue in His works.  To live in His will and pursue His word (Jesus IS the Word of God [John 1:1-14]). 

Again, all this is to build His body (he church) and to learn how to live in and share His love. 

Amen
