I was awakened early this morning at 4:04am. God often speaks to me from the time on the clock when I awaken. The first thing that came to my mind was the 404 error code on a website. It shows there has been an error in the link or missing content. Next He brought to my attention Hebrews 4:4...for it says in the Scriptures,
And on the seventh day God rested from all his works. This seemed incomplete but as I read around it (vs 1-7) there was a confirmation of things He had been speaking to me about...rest. From here He brought to me Isaiah 40:4...Every valley will be raised up, every mountain brought low. Again as I read around this from verses 1-11. It was things He has been speaking to me about for some time. This speaks of preparing for YHWH's arrival. Something that goes back almost 6 years ago to a scripture He had highlighted to me from Exodus 3:7-8 Then the Lord told him, “I have certainly seen the oppression of my people in Egypt. I have heard their cries of distress because of their harsh slave drivers. Yes, I am aware of their suffering. So I HAVE COME DOWN to rescue them from the power of the Egyptians and lead them out of Egypt into their own fertile and spacious land." The bold phrase just came off the paper at me, and God told me to begin to tell the people He was coming. This wasn't the return of Jesus kind of coming down, but a God intervention just as in the time of Exodus. I will admit I had to wrestle with that a little bit, but as clear as could be He told to me start telling people that. He began walking me through scriptures and biblical prophesy that supported this newfound revelation. As prophetic voice began to speak out more and more over the years following I began to see God was saying the same thing through other people as well, in part. There were many different ways it was being said, but one common thread. "A Divine Intervention" Now what we have seen play out more and more since the covid season is what seems to be us slipping further and further away from Christlike values, in culture, churches, and politics. It seemed somewhat contradictory to say He was coming and things were just getting worse and worse. I could not waiver from faith in what He showed me, and boy has my faith been strengthened to endure in those years. It may seem like we are about to lose it all. I see the Israelites in the same boat as they were trapped on the seashore by the sea and a pursuing army. What they forgot in that moment was God was there. He had even manifest Himself as a pillar of fire and cloud. I am here to tell you, it's not over yet. It's not all going south, Divine Intervention is on its way. I asked God what that would look like, how He would manifest Himself this time. No answer, just a reassurance it would happen. So let me take you back to the first paragraph and what these scriptures were speaking to me now. Error 404- That's the position of the church. In disarray, divided more than ever over every topic you can bring up, both within scripture and cultural context. The link between the body of Christ and our God broken because foundational teaching and discipleship have been missing as modeled and instructed from the new testament church and blueprints of the Word that were established. This takes me to the next one in Hebrews 4. Resting in our Father. It's stated that today is the day of rest. First generation Israel failed to enter rest because of grumbling, complaint, disobedience and disbelief. We now have opportunity again, today, to enter the rest of God. I understand sometimes rest feels slow, stagnant, even dead at times. Sometimes there is only one thing to do in rest...wait. But we must wait in belief, by faith. Mouths shut, eyes and heart open! This is one of the hardest things to do as a human being, not just as a disciple of Jesus.
This leads me into the next portion of Scripture. Isaiah 40:4 He used to time to lead me to scriptures I was familiar with, but then as I explored what I found in 10-11 made my spirit leap.
" Look! Here comes Lord Yahweh as a victorious warrior; he triumphs with his awesome power. Watch as he brings with him his reward and the spoils of victory to give to his people."
I have been proclaiming now for 6 years, that God is coming, divine intervention is on its way. But this was also from a position of rest. Holding on to what God had said to me, even though the time at times, seemed to long, even though circumstance seemed to be going the opposite way of victory, both at a personal and corporate level. With this encouragement this morning my spirit was revived again with this message and the knowing this time is about to manifest among us. HE'S COME DOWN and about to deal justice and call a harvest into righteousness. The broken link is about to be restored for a season of great rest for the body. There is much more He has shown me, that will maybe come out in another post. A dream followed this after I went back to sleep which I am still seeking understanding and praying over. In rest comes wonders and miracles. Scripture is about to fulfilled even more in this season. Hold on my fellow brothers and sisters. Divine Intervention is on its way and the whole earth is about to shake! Be blessed in all you do and take account for the words from your mouth more than ever in this season.
