The Light House

Let there be light in the house…both a fire in the belly full of the Holy Spirit and an understanding of all God wills to do. Be a bringer of light, individually and corporately. Your part holds in a moment or two the ability to cast down unbelief which holds no value or the thought taken captive that actuates belief. Oh, look at the promises and acknowledge them!

Ezekiel 36:29-30 says, “I will also save you from all your uncleanness, and I will call forth the grain and make it abundant and lay no famine on you. And I will multiply the fruit of the tree and the increase of the field, that you may no more suffer the reproach and disgrace of famine among the nations.” (Amplified)

Acknowledge the pain, hurts, sins and offenses. How often and frequent numbers the promises of what God wills to do when a nation, a community, a church, a people turns to Him in repentance? 2 Chronicles 7:14…in the humility and the seeking there is healing. There is this childlike humility that brings refreshing and kingdom victory into your lives. 2 Chronicles 15:2 says that He will be found. Acts 3:19 says there is a refreshing on the way in His presence. There is a spiritual and physical spoil birthed from repentance. When you know sin to be loathsome you will push toward, press into, go above and beyond toward God because you have already found Him to be altogether lovely.

Verse 33 says you will be cleansed, enabled and rebuilt in one day. How many places in the Word of God does this kind of promise light up the path? How many times has this enlightened the eyes of the heart (Ephesians 1:18) It is the exceeding power for those who believe with exactness (Ephesians 1:19)! I have already be shown that the worship ministry shall be put together fully in a single day and I will be not surprised but rather delighted extravagantly. I don’t doubt it for a moment. It can be accomplished on earth as is in heaven. His ways are higher than ours. This is where the Word was birthed. After all, belief is what brings the power!

2 Chronicles 20:20 says to hear, “…Believe in the Lord your God, and you shall be established, believe His prophets, and you shall prosper.” Isaiah 7:9 says that “If you will not believe you will not be established.”  I do. I do. I do.

It is the blotting out of all that hinders from the blessing. And while it looks messy, it is a blessing of glory! Ever came away from the presence of God and knew the mighty anointing of the Spirit of God? This is the refreshing.

Verse 34 says “…the desolate land shall be tilled instead of lying desolate in your sight…” …A ground breaking ceremony unto the opening of the church doors. Instead of… something to take place, an expectation of action and existence, and occurrence, in lieu of what was just said…so look back. Look back to verse previous. Look at the refreshing in Acts 3:19. What came first? Proverbs 11:25 says further that those who refresh are also refreshed. It takes the body…the body of belief…the one where unbelief holds no precedence.

Verse 35 say (paraphrased) Oh look, the church is built (with turning heads), that place was void, non existent and in ruins. Faith in the “One and Only’ sees it different. And the whole church comes together in unity to be and do what God the Holy Spirit has willed for so very long.

Verse 36 talks of the ‘now planted and rebuilt from the ruin’. Have you ever looked at something and thought (in nothing less than unbelief)… “Wow, how will that ever take place?” or “How can that ever come together” or “My, my, my…what a mess!” It is the specialty of the Almighty who wills to love many and into the kingdom. It is His whole heart; saved, healed, whole…a filled up flock…a flock filled up! Fling wide the doors. Oh, how many times I have seen this…seemingly beyond numbers.

Verse 38 (paraphrased)… the ruined cities filled, the calling forth of the loyal and obedient service. (Amplified) Believing examples. Many gifts operating in the ministry for His glory!

There shall be a covenant of peace that is everlasting…established and multiplied and the sanctuary in their midst. In the midst of the church…a safe place. Ezekiel calls it in 34:29  a ‘Garden of Renown’.

The Blessing on Israel….Ezekiel 36:8… “you shall shoot forth your branches and yield your fruit to My people Israel, for they are about to come.”

Revelation 22:2 “Each tree yielding its fruit every month”...abundant life…never been about survival…regardless of its radical difficulty. God wants to radically bless.

Ezekiel 47:12 says, “Along the bank of the river, on this side and the other will grow all kinds of trees used for food; their leaves will not wither and their fruit will not fail. They will bear fruit every month, because their water flows from the sanctuary. Their fruit will be for food, and their leaves for the healing.” The anointing flows from the Word of God, from its teaching. From up and out of the belly will flow rivers of water, the worship that satisfies and provides from the riches of His great love.

Newness, fruit, life…out of the radical difficulty…Glorious!

Isaiah 65:17 says… “….And the former shall be remembered no more or come upon the heart.”

Isaiah 65:18 says to be glad and rejoice in what is created.

Isaiah 65:19 says the voice of weeping will be heard no longer.

Isaiah 65:20 speaks of the blessing of long life.

Isaiah 65:21 says, “They shall build houses and inhabit (dwell, occupy and reside in) them. They shall plant vineyards and eat their fruit.” Vineyards planted to be harvested.

Isaiah 65:22 says, “They shall not build and another eat.” Crops to be harvested from planting at seasons’ end for the church house.

Isaiah 65:23… No labor in vain. No bringing of children for trouble. Descendants of the blessed of the Lord and their offspring with them.

Isaiah 65:24…answered before they call.

Isaiah 65:25…no hurting and nothing destroyed in all of the holy place. This is the discerning of the purposed life in the Spirit.

Let there be light! He has commanded light to shine out of darkness giving to our hearts light from the knowledge of the Word of God. Take enough oil to light up the place of the sanctuary and of the sanctuary of the spirit, the refreshing of light in the house. The light house!
