“Enough” – Time To Act by Steve Martin

“Enough” – Time To Act by Steve Martin

“Immediately I was in the Spirit; and behold, a throne was standing in heaven, and One sitting on the throne.” Revelation 4:1, NASU

There have been several times when I am praying that in my mind’s eye I envision the Lord Jesus, Yeshua Ha Mashiach, seated on the heavenly throne. He is majestic. He is confident. He is ruling with justice and all knowledge.

“After these things I looked, and behold, a door standing open in heaven, and the first voice which I had heard, like the sound of a trumpet speaking with me, said, ” Come up here, and I will show you what must take place after these things.” Immediately I was in the Spirit; and behold, a throne was standing in heaven, and One sitting on the throne. And He who was sitting was like a jasper stone and a sardius in appearance; and there was a rainbow around the throne, like an emerald in appearance. Around the throne were twenty-four thrones; and upon the thrones I saw twenty-four elders sitting, clothed in white garments, and golden crowns on their heads.” Revelation 4:1-4, NASU

During one recent particular morning, as I prayed in tongues anticipating the Holy Spirit knew exactly what He wanted me to be interceding for, I envisioned the Lord stand up, staff in hand, and declare in a loud roar, “Enough!”

Yes, the time has come when the King of kings and the Lord of lords has allowed man try his own ways, his own thoughts, his own attempts to control history. And now the Lord has said it is enough.

It is enough that millions of babies have been murdered. It is enough that injustice and racism has ruled in many lands. It is enough that even in the churches too many have sat back just waiting for the rapture, one of the biggest and harmful lies of the centuries, to sweep them out of here and let the rest go to hell.

The Lord says it is enough.

Injustice will not go on forever. The lies of the enemy will not prevail. There has always been an appointed time for it to end.

Many have been waiting, waiting, waiting. I believe the Lord is wanting to encourage His faithful, the ones who have persevered, the ones who have stood strong, the ones that have been laden with the cares and pressures of these times, by telling us that the time has come for us to see His hand move in the nations and bring His kingdom to earth as it is in heaven.

“Far better to take refuge in God than trust in people; far better to take refuge in God than trust in celebrities.

Hemmed in by barbarians, in God’s name I rubbed their faces in the dirt; hemmed in and with no way out, in God’s name I rubbed their faces in the dirt; like swarming bees, like wild prairie fire, they hemmed me in;

in God’s name I rubbed their faces in the dirt.

I was right on the cliff-edge, ready to fall, when God grabbed and held me. God’s my strength, he’s also my song, and now he’s my salvation. Hear the shouts, hear the triumph songs in the camp of the saved? “The hand of God has turned the tide!” Psalm 118:8-15, THE MESSAGE

The hand of God is calling the shots. He is the One who will prevail, and even when all seems as if it is right on the edge of the cliff, ready to fall over, He will grab hold and show His strength and the determination of His will.

The Lord has said, “Enough”. Watch Him act on His word in our midst. We will be singing, “Hallelujah!”

Ahava and shalom,

“Cross the River” – Time To Act by Steve Martin

“Cross the River” – Time To Act
“Now when all the nation had finished crossing the Jordan, the Lord spoke to Joshua, saying, ” Take for yourselves twelve men from the people, one man from each tribe, and command them, saying, ‘Take up for yourselves twelve stones from here out of the middle of the Jordan, from the place where the priests’ feet are standing firm, and carry them over with you and lay them down in the lodging place where you will lodge tonight.'” Joshua 4:1-3, NASU
“Cross the river.” That is what I heard in my thoughts, but I knew Who spoke it.
He spoke those three words this morning, and so I will be looking for what river the Holy Spirit is directing me to cross.
I appreciate how the Lord speaks to us. For some, His Word of direction, encouragement, assignment, or inspiration may come from a Bible verse. This is a very good way of receiving, direct from His eternal, foundational Word. It is known as the “logos” of God.
Other times He will give us His Word through “rhema” – a spoken word from a prophetic message or, dare we think, something we might even hear through TV, video on the Internet, or heaven forbid, a Hollywood produced movie, and when heard we think, “Hmmm. There is something about that which I just heard.”
The Bible says He used a donkey (jack…), didn’t He? Why not one from Hollywood? (“Just sayin.” As they say here in the South. America.)
So, when I heard these words, “Cross the river” as a thought which came into my mind, I knew it was the voice of the Good Shepherd, as I have become accustomed to hearing. Ever so quiet at times.
As I personally thought of the three words more later, I believe it can be a physical crossing, a spiritual crossing, or both. Prophetic words many times are that way – having both natural and spiritual fulfillment when they come to pass.
What has He been speaking to you these days? Are you listening? Have you put yourself in a place to listen? Will you then act on what He tells you, or dismiss it as just random thoughts?
I encourage you to be looking, to be listening, to be acting on what the Living God of Israel is speaking. He may use thunder. He may use lightening, as He promised to give us signs in the heavens in these last days.
“But immediately following the trouble of those times, the sun will grow dark, the moon will stop shining, the stars will fall from the sky, and the powers in heaven will be shaken.” Matthew 24:29, Complete Jewish Bible
He may use your young child to express a word of encouragement, or directive, most needed in your life this day. He is giving even dreams and visions to many as He promised to do.
As Peter declared in Acts 2:17-21, quoting from the Hebrew prophet Joel, “’And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God, “That I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh; your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your young men shall see visions, your old men shall dream dreams. And on My menservants and on My maidservants I will pour out My Spirit in those days; and they shall prophesy.
I will show wonders in heaven above and signs in the earth beneath: blood and fire and vapor of smoke. The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the coming of the great and awesome day of the Lord. And it shall come to pass that whoever calls on the name of the Lord be saved.“ NKJV
It is time to act on that which you have been told by the Lord.
