What Heaven is Saying Today
Yesterday as we were running some personal and ministry errands, we saw some very unusual signs in the skies. These were made by remnants of jet streams and some patches of clouds. There was a very distinct “X” in one part of the sky. Next to it was a very distinct check mark. Then off to the side there was an exclamation mark which seemed to be moving away from us. That was both unusual and interesting. I thought there might be a prophetic word in what we were seeing, but it was not revealed. So I filed this away.
This morning, in our Worship time, the Lord gave me a vision of signs in the Heavens. I saw a very dark sky with beautiful purple lines being drawn by an unseen hand. I saw directional marks and straight lines at various angles. Suddenly, I began to get a revelation about what we saw yesterday. The Lord has given signs in the past, is giving signs in the present and will soon give signs in the future. People have not understood the signs very well in the past. Many people are completely oblivious of the signs being given now. Others will not have any understanding of what is about to manifest. When they begin to manifest, many people will be overcome with fear and confusion.
As I pondered this the Lord led me to Jeremiah 10:2, “This is what the LORD says: ‘Do not learn the ways of the nations or be terrified by signs in the sky, though the nations are terrified by them.” The Lord is not giving us something to bring fear. The signs are reminders that He is always working for the good of those He has called. The purpose of the signs which are and also will soon manifest is to increase the faith of the Lord’s people as it did in the time of Moses. Exodus 4:30-31, “And Aaron spoke all the words which the Lord had spoken to Moses. Then he did the signs in the sight of the people. So the people believed; and when they heard that the Lord had visited the children of Israel and that He had looked on their affliction, then they bowed their heads and worshiped.”
As we had communion this morning, I was reminded of our first love. I do not want to ever hear the Lords rebuke given in Revelation 2:4-5, “Nevertheless I have this against you, that you have left your first love. Remember therefore from where you have fallen; repent and do the first works, or else I will come to you quickly and remove your lampstand from its place—unless you repent.” Now is the time to hold firmly to our “first love” and stay focused on our “first works.” I began to declare and decree that the Lord is our first love. He is above all others. On a day traditionally dedicated to honoring the ones we love, may our first love hear heartfelt words of love from all His children. Amen:
