When under a theology of everything needs to get worst so we can get raptured out of here, we look for bad things, in all things that happen. But Matthew 6 says, “Thy kingdom come, thy will be done…ON EARTH as it is in heaven.” It sounds like we are supposed to make earth like heaven, not leave earth and go to heaven. With a slight shift from everything getting worst, to redemption of the earth and the nations, we see events a little differently.

There was a lunar eclipse last night that lasted 82 minutes. Lunar eclipses are a sign, a message to Israel and solar ecliipses are a sign or message to the Gentile nations. What I didn’t know is what this sign in the sky was communicating to Israel, so I did some research from a rabbinical point of view, since I am not a Hebrew.

According to the rabbi’s, the Talmud and even the Bible, the moon is a symbol of David’s dynasty (Psalm 89:37). This alone is a fascinating thought, but it gets better. The eclipse of the moon was a call to repentance; a call to look for redemption; a sign before the Messiah’s reign; a birth pang of redemption that brought hope to a people in exile.

The moon to the rabbi’s was tied to Israel’s destiny, David’s covenant and Messiah’s revelation. The blood moon was a sign to them of shaking, judgment or transition. (Joel 2:31/Acts 2:20/Revelation 6:12)

The blood moon was not just a bad omen where people lived in fear, but it was a sign of a coming Messiah, a reminder that redemption is near, transition is upon us and a reminder of the Davidic dynasty.

Genesis 1 tells us the sun, moon and stars are for signs and for seasons, and the Hebrew people would look to the sky for their calendar, their communication about coming events and for direction from God. The God who created these beautiful celestial wonders, is communicating to all of us that we are transitioning into the Messianic Age and that our exile is coming to an end. And this is worth shouting over. Www.apostolicresourcecenter.org

To a people who have only known hardship, poverty, or being less than in culture, comments or covenant, a warning is being issued from the heart of God. Not a warning to shame, but a warning to protect.

Israel lived in Egypt as a nation for 430 years. That means they were dipped in a culture of oppression for a minimum of four generations. That is a long time to be living under oppressive rulership. Multiple generations were born into oppression and they did not know anything different.

Understanding this is imperative, for it gives us a better view as to why they needed some time in the wilderness, they had to be retrained in the way they thought from oppression to abundance mindset. If the shift in mindset does not happen, we will become the very people and place we have been rescued from.

When Jesus said, Repent for the kingdom of God is at hand, He was not asking them to do some behavior modification, He was inviting them to change the way they think, for He was delivering them from an oppressive religious system and bringing them into a kingdom that would know no end.

The warning the Lord is giving us, repent for the kingdom of God is at hand, abundance is about to invade our lives, but we must change the way we think from oppressive, survival mode to abundance mindset or we will treat others the way the oppressive system treated us.

If we repeat on others what was done to us, we will perpetuate a system God has rescued us from. If you never forget where you came from, you will never do to others what was done to you. Friends, a new narrative is needed for a new mindset is being offfered and a new land of abundance is being accessed. Everything is changing, everything and we must change the way we think.

People are powerful. Created in the image of God, we have the power to create other people, create businesses, build churches, invent space programs, start schools, develop blueprints, the list goes on and on, what people are able to do. This is a gift given to us by God, but the challenge is, we do most of it, if not all of it in our own strength.

Nation goes to war against nation with man-power, people who carry weapons, ride in tanks, shoot missles or launch drones. We build iron domes, golden domes, temples, and draw lines we don’t want people to cross. People decide who gets humanitarian aid and who has to live in poverty without water or paved roads. Human strength has both helped and hindered humanity.

The greatest challenge we face as believers in Jesus Christ is surrendering our human strength. We are so gifted, talented, educated, and motivated, we do more out of our own strength than we even realize. We pray to get a blueprint to build the next thing in our own strength. We meet with others to write songs, plant churches, or start businesses, all in our own strength.

Human strength has done some remarkable things on earth, but a new day is here and human strength is going to pale in comparison to supernatural signs that are going to make you wonder. Many are going to wonder how did they do that; where did they learn that; it is going to blow the natural mind, because we are about to see and hear what it looks like to be supernatural.

Genesis 14:14-16 says, “When Abram heard that his nephew had been taken prisoner, he lined up his servants, all of them born in his household—there were 318 of them—and chased after the captors all the way to Dan. Abram and his men split into small groups and attacked by night. They chased them as far as Hobah, just north of Damascus. They recovered all the plunder along with nephew Lot and his possessions, including the women and the people.”

God specializes in doing the supernatural not with large numbers, but small ones, for if it is human strength, might is found in big numbers in the bank, big numbers in your military, big numbers in your building, but God is still in the business of taking the few and doing mighty supernatural exploits that give Him all the glory.

Three words have permeated our atmosphere over the past year, FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT! With a bloody face and a fierce look, these words have called a nation into a battle that had already been waged, a war that had already been won. They were words for waking up the sleeping, arousing those who lay in graves of despair. It was an invitation to take back a country that had been long occupied by internal and external enemies. 

People in survival mode love the idea of a fight. We know how to wage war, we know how to take back what has been stolen, so those words resonated with many who had become apathetic due to disappointment, cynical due to delay, and angry due to feeling helpless and powerless to change anything. Three words rallied a nation and the cry for justice is being heard in the land. 

To hear the voice of God, who dwells in a tabernacle not on earth, who speaks from a throne not made by man, who has resources beyond comprehension, to hear the Lord of heaven and earth and to respond to His voice is the call of the church. To echo what He is saying is what we are called to do, even when it is not what the leaders on earth are saying and doing, at least not what is being magnified by the media. 

The decree of heaven is not fight, fight, fight, the decree of heaven is build, build, build. This decree is hard for many to hear, for they love the fight, they love the war, they make millions on the battle, but the Lord of heaven and earth is not in a fight, He is not inviting us into a war, He is calling us to build. 

In the words of the prophet Isaiah we hear, “And it shall be said, Build up, build up, prepare the way, remove every obstruction from my people’s way.”

God is looking for builders not fighters. The call has gone out for those who want to build the kingdom of God on earth; who want to build a highway for our God. He is asking, where are my builders? 

Ephesians 4:29 says, do not let any unwholesome words come out of your mouth, but only that which is for the building up of other people. It is Ephesians 4:29 and Isaiah 54:17 time on earth as it is in heaven. Are you willing to accept the call to build, because this is the next phase of the kingdom of God on earth.

Noise is artificial significance.
Noise gives the promise of safety, but it never delivers it.
Noise feels like the presence but lacks the person.
Noise fills the gaps where silence wants to penetrate.

Silence is a gift that is often forfeited out of fear of what we willl hear.
Silence is misunderstood because of the noise in our own heads.
Silence is powerful and penetrates the deep places of our lives.
Silence is truth that sets us free if only we will submit to it.

Psalm 62 says, “My soul, wait silently for God alone, For my expectation is from Him. He only is my rock and my salvation; He is my defense; I shall not be moved. In God is my salvation and my glory; The rock of my strength, And my refuge, is in God.”

How much truth do we forfeit because we love the noise of scrolling over the silence of reading God’s word?

How many hours do we waste trying to figure it out on our own, rather than waiting in the silence for the all knowing God to speak?

How much money do we spend trying to meet a need created by all the noise in our head, because we can’t handle the stillness called rest?

When we wait silently for God alone (selah) we find Him to be the very person we need, the very answer to our question, the very revealer of the lies lodged deep in our heart. We find His still small voice speaking words that will set us free, giving us commands that will get us out of our mess, and offering us solutions to problems we ourselves created.

Most people are troubled by noise, both outside of them and inside of them, but God is not noise, He is silence and His silence speaks, His silence reveals, His silence heals, His silence is a frequency that only He can emit in order to transform us, if only we would surrender to the silence.

One of the greatest injustices in the church right now is expecting to be forgiven, but not forgiving others. The deception is deep, for most people believe they have forgiven others, but actually their lives reveal they haven’t. Unforgiveness is hard to detect in ourselves, because we believe we are free because we have been forgiven, not realizing we are stuck because we haven’t forgiven.

I was walking the dog this morning and the Lord said, “Marrow level forgiveness and healing.” I was shocked by this, for marrow is not a word I use. I know Hebrews 4:12 says, “The word of God is sharper than a double edge sword, separating even bone and marrow.” But honestly, I did not know what that meant.

This morning when the Lord made it clear he wants forgiveness on the marrow level, it caused me to look up what is marrow. Here is what I learned thanks to ChatGPT. Marrow is the hidden life source; producing blood; life factory; life source of the soul; life producing tissue, hidden deep in the bones.

The Lord wants marrow level forgiveness and healing in His people. This is not saying the words I forgive you, this is allowing the Lord to penetrate deep into the hidden places inside of you, so you can forgive. Jesus said, “For if you forgive others for their transgressions, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive others, then your Father will not forgive your transgressions.” (Matthew 6:13-14)

As we enter into this new age of restitution, it begins with us forgiving on a marrow level those who have hurt us, for only in our forgiving of them on that level are we forgiven and healed. The healing God is releasing is not surface level, it is going to the life source level called marrow and it starts with forgiveness. Www.apostolicresourcecenter.org
