WHAT IS TO COME
INTRODUCTION
This is a short picture of what I believe the Lord has revealed of what we can expect in the coming years, much is what others have seen and what the Lord has confirmed by His Spirit. There is a measure of being able to see or prophesy something, and then the wisdom to be able to recognize how it is applied. I am just as concerned with the application of prophecy as the release of it. I do not claim to see beyond this specific time period, or understand eschatology. This is specific to regional boundaries and spheres of influence and not the whole "end times” picture.
This will take many years to unfold, but I believe it is of the Lord what I am about to share, and is also important to understand it in order to put our focus where it should be, ON HIM, and the unfolding of His presence and power WITHIN His people.
UNION WITH THE BRIDE
We are about to see the maturing and harvest of ALL things, both good and evil. The holiness of God will be manifest on the earth through His people. God is coming into union with His people and He is revealing Himself and His nature through His son's. He is uniting himself with His people as a groom unites Himself with His bride, bone of her bone and flesh of her flesh. The two are becoming one.
The maturing of evil is also upon us as man's inhumanity to men will be seen as never before. The devil is coming into union with his chosen, who are about to express the fullness of his nature; a murderer and liar. They will truly be seen for what they are; sons of their father the devil. Great darkness covers and will cover the earth, but as darkness increases the light will shine brighter and brighter.
REGIONAL KINGDOM MANIFESTATION
De 32:8 when the most High caused the Gentiles to be inherited, when he separated the sons of men, he set the bounds of the peoples according to the number of the sons of Israel.
Moses is clearly stating in this verse that God has divided the earth’s boundaries into regions; these regions are according to the number of the sons of Israel (Jacob) Twelve tribes in all.
God is establishing specific regions on the earth as a resting place of His glory and presence. "Heaven on earth" This is a result of his people manifesting His glory through what they have become; resting places of His glory, the manifestation of Christ in man. As individuals find their place in Him, and also become a resting place for Him, there will be distinct regions of freedom and deliverance from the works of the devil.
The Lord's purpose is to see His kingdom come on earth as it is in heaven, as a result of His people living out and expressing spiritual realities on earth as it is in heaven. At a gathering last week someone said in essence "This is kind of like heaven on earth". My answer was, "It IS heaven on earth", and in that word a release of the kingdom came.
As the days go on and troubles increase these places of refuge will be sought out for their distinct expressions of the manifest presence of God according to need. You will also see people refusing to repent flee these places for regions that are under the domain of the devil for a season.
The foundation of the rule of God in these regions will not be the power sources of men's ruling today. The seat of God's power is His corporate bride unveiled and descending from heaven. These places of kingdom dominion are not built on laws, politics, economic prosperity, or military power; but on righteousness, joy, and peace in the Holy Spirit. Righteousness and justice will be the foundation of God's rule over these regions, and God will be rule through His people, executing judgments and the decrees of heaven through His people.
In the regions of "The peace of God's presence", there will be greater and greater manifestations of God's Glory as sickness and poverty will be wiped out. The economy of Love that gives what you have to those in need and considers nothing as your own like the early church, will replace the monetary system of Babylon. Money will not exist. A system of bartering, serving, and loving will supply everyone’s needs, food and shelter will be provided as those who have will supply for those who don't, and the cycle will go on and on. The land and weather patterns of these regions will be blessed. This is only possible with the rule of law being removed, and the Law of the Spirit of Life taking over as the kingdom advances.
DISINTEGRATION OF THE RULE OF LAW
As the seat of God's kingdom the New Jerusalem/The Corporate Bride emerges, we will see in the world simultaneously the progressive disintegration of governments and rule of law among men. The places of safety and security in the governments of men will wither away and become ineffective to stop lawlessness from taking control of whole regions.
National boundaries will blur and power will be to armed groups that will be in control and not central or local governments. These regions will be in great darkness, and men will be given over to all sorts of unspeakable acts that will make Hitler and Stalin look mild compared to the "sport" that men will make with the lives of other men. The devil will give authority to His chosen people that will terrorize and lay waste to even the land.
This must happen as the kingdom that is being established is not founded upon anything that current governments are founded upon. They must be removed in order for the Kingdom to fully be established
Eventually all that offends will be rooted out and burned. The harvest of the righteous will be all that remains, but for this time before us we can expect to see upheaval and stress never seen on the earth before.
Mt 13:30 Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.
There will be a clear separating of the chaff and the wheat. The choice of trusting or not trusting in God will be clear for all to see, all spiritual beings will be made cognizant of this division in both heaven and earth and under the earth, there will be no excuses for any man, woman, child, or angelic being; as it will be made clear unto all. And yet even with great turmoil and trouble, many men will continue in their ways and delusions because they have given themselves over to wickedness. They will have no excuse on that day of His appearing; as He will have made known through His people His great and glorious goodness and mercy. His manifold wisdom will be on display for all to see, even to the whole of creation, through His Bride, the church, the called out ones.
CONCLUSION
I don't understand everything about the Revelation of John, or how it fits with this, I only know God is establishing a kingdom on earth. Worry over current governmental laws and politics is a great waste of time, it is time to be focused on the kingdom of God and its advancement. Allegiances to nations and their systems make men open to be judged along with the system of government they ally themselves to. The politics and wars of these are of little concern to the kingdom. If you are a soldier of the kingdom your battle is not against flesh and blood. It is not a political or national battle. It is a battle that will establish the kingdom of God on earth as it is in heaven.
2Ti 2:4 No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.
