Tonight at soaking I heard the Lord say that I was a "seeker" on a journey. I thought about the scripture: One thing I ask, this is what I seek. That I would dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze upon His beautiful face. (ok it is late and I am not sure of the exact words)
He showed me a vision of the River of God. HE said to me that there are many that want the river of God and that when they get there they stay there. They play in the river, live in it, live beside it etc (nothing wrong with the river) He said to me...seek the source. He said that Moses , when he saw the burning bush, stayed for a while, but went on to seek the source...
I am getting opposition for me seeking the Lord and stepping back from "doing stuff".
It is funny that it comes from unexpected sources !! The last 3 months with this rest, I felt that it was the Lord telling me to take this rest.... I was obedient.
Now I feel a drawing similar to one a few years back..to come aside and seek Him alone. The last time was when I got many personal songs from the Lord.
The other day I was sitting asking the Lord what it was that He had for me in this new season and I got no answer. A little while later, the scripture " It is the glory of God to hide a matter, and the glory of kings to seek it out" dropped in my mind. I need (desperately) to get closer to the Lord !!!! Bobby Conner says that you have to come close to get an embrace, so I want to come closer and go deeper with the Lord so that He can embrace me and I can embrace Him and what He is doing>>>
I suspect that the cost for this may be higher than last time He called me aside. I am feeling the Esther call again, only this time I know that it is deeper.... In the last few months the Lord has been showing me who I am...my identity and I think that some is finally getting into my spirit/soul, yes and even body. I pray that my marriage will stay strong through this all !!!! He is not saved yet , but the warfare is actually coming more from saved people. God, cover us with Your blood !!!
Kathie Pelton wrote in her word about the 4th man in the fire:
I did not have to engage in the warfare, only in the intimacy.
"The Lord will fight for you, and you shall hold your peace and remain at rest."—Exodus 14:14
This is our weapon of warfare...INTIMACY! The Lord will fight for us as we are kept in His peace and rest (in stillness and quietness). So, allow the Lord to take you to where the green meadows and still waters are and watch His deliverance win the war for you. Keep your eyes on Him and off of the flames.
Is God worth it? YES ! Will it be worth it? YES ! PTL that I have some friends that understand !!! I want to honour them and bless them now !!!!! I thank God for them !
Just understand that this is a season and that it is time for me to SEEK the Lord while He may be found. He is definitely calling me and I am answering...
