Come My People
Isaiah 26:20
A Teaching and Prayer
Time is so short; we no longer have a reference point for tomorrow. We have nothing to hope in, on this earth. It is going to be destroyed. You cannot make any plans that bring you joy or even seem natural. Those things that were acceptable and permissible are now no longer acceptable or permissible because only what is eternal is where all of our assets of life are to be focused. We are to be investing our lifeblood in what is not going to be destroyed. “Therefore if anyone is in Messiah, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come” (2 Corinthians 5:17). As new creations, we need to be ready in the Spirit and waiting for Him. If we are waiting for anything else, then we are going to be deceived. We will have our focus off Yahshua (Jesus). He is coming soon, and His bride is making herself ready
We cannot long for a future here. There is no future here for us or for our children. None. That truth is a hard pill to swallow for young people, because they are not going to fill out their days—so hard. They had hopes and dreams, we all do—but we need to start majoring in the kingdom that awaits us, as we die to our flesh. The kingdom is at hand; we don’t die, we go to live with Him forever. We will not see death. This is new “fish bait” at the end of the age, to bring those who have waited to the last moments to listen and respond.
“Come, my people, enter into your rooms and close your doors behind you; hide for a little while until indignation runs its course. For behold, Yahveh is about to come out from His place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity; and the earth will reveal her bloodshed and will no longer cover her slain” (Isaiah 26:20-21).
Go into your room just for a little while with Him. Hide yourself in Him. Cultivate that intimacy with Him so He alone is your heart’s desire and you long to be with Him. You long to worship and revere Him, for He is your life. He is your Sustenance. He is your ever-present Help in time of trouble. He is your Peace. He is your Joy. He is your Reward. He is your Husband. He is your King. He is your Deliverer. He is Yahshua (Jesus). He is your Beloved Lamb who died to give you life.
Prayer
Thank You, Father in heaven, for the refiner’s fire that You have brought to each one of us and for the refiner’s fire that is coming upon the whole face of the earth that will purify it. You told Malachi, before the great and dreadful day of Yahveh (the Lord), that You are going to send the launder’s soap and the refiner’s fire so that You would have a remnant who would bring You offerings in righteousness as in days of old (see Malachi 3:3). And to “Remember the law of Moses My servant, even the statutes and ordinances which I commanded him in Horeb for all Israel. Behold, I am going to send you Elijah [EliYAH] the prophet before the coming of the great and terrible day of Yahveh” (Malachi 4:4-5) to turn the people back to the pure worship of Yahveh.
You are lifting us up. The gravitational pull of this dying, doomed world is being CUT from us, and it will not weigh us down anymore. We will not be dissipated, we will not be discouraged, we will not despair—we will rejoice because we are being moved upward vertically while this is earth is being shut down, ready to collapse and dissolve under the weight of Your judgment. HalleluYAH for this anointing that will give us the words to speak and will cut asunder those who hear and are ready to listen.
You spoke this to Isaiah regarding the last days, “Those who are wayward in spirit will gain understanding; those who complain will accept instruction” (Isaiah 29:24) and that the ears that were shut will now be opened and the eyes that did not see will now see. You are bringing this about, for in this gross darkness Your light is rising and shining upon Your people. And with that great light shining upon us, and in and through us, it will bring light to those around us. Thank you, Father in heaven that they will be able to see and hear what Your Spirit is saying at last.
Light dawns for the upright. Thank You that we are walking in more light now than we have ever had before. Our paths are so well lit because You are the light of the world whose light encapsulates us. Guard our footsteps that we not veer or stumble. The angels of Yahveh (the Lord) encamp about the righteous (see Psalm 34:7). We need wisdom for these days. This may very well be the last generation, and no one has ever lived in the last generation. Our focus is on You, the Giver of wisdom, the Giver of this good and perfect gift; we beseech You to give wisdom to us and our children in the name of Yahshua Messiah. Amen.
