On Saturday while in Florence Alabama, Chuck Pierce said, “the Lord will send you back to some places in order to re-align that location so that you can move forward into your new assignment.“ I knew I was coming to Kansas City on Wednesday and those words hit me hard wondering what was God going to realign that may be out of alignment.

Yesterday I had a realigning moment with a good friend of mine, and as soon as the realignment happened, the spirit of wisdom, revelation, and understanding flowed freely. When there is anything that is out of alignment, we cannot hear clearly what is being said. It was a powerful dinner in which realignment happened for a future assignment.

This morning while reading Genesis 28, it says, “Jacob left Beersheba and went toward Haran. And he came to a certain place and stayed there that night, because the sun had set. Taking one of the stones of the place, he put it under his head and lay down in that place to sleep. And he dreamed, and behold, there was a ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it reached to heaven. And behold, the angels of God were ascending and descending on it! And behold, the LORD stood above it and said, “I am the LORD, the God of Abraham your father and the God of Isaac.”

Haran is where Abraham left in order to follow the Lord into his promised land, called Canaan of which his descendants would occupy and inherit. The fact that the Lord lead Jacob, Abraham‘s grandson back to that location for a realignment in order to step into a future assignment was not missed in my reading this morning. God spoke to Jacob exactly what he spoke to Abraham. It was a moment of realignment for the assignment and it came through a dream.

The other point of notice in this story is that there is a stone that Jacob laid his head on and a declaration from Jacob that this is the gate of heaven. This is where Jesus got the words that he spoke over Peter who he called rock, When he said in Matthew 16:18 “and upon this rock, I will build my church and the gates of hell will not prevail against it.” Abraham Jacob/Israel and Jesus’ words to Peter all come into alignment at this moment for a future assignment of which we are fulfilling.

If the Lord invites you to circle back to a location for the sake of realignment, it is for a future assignment. We may not have understood what was out of alignment in a past location, but it must come into alignment in order for us to enter into the new assignment that is upon us. I am so grateful to be back in a past location for the sake of realignment for a future destination. He’s inviting us back so that we can go forward in victory. It takes humility, but it’s because we’re in a building age. We must be aligned correctly. Www.apostolicresourcecenter.org
