BEFORE YOU BREAK FORTH

Discussion

Preparation precedes manifestation. Just as with the Messiah, there were many years of preparing the nation of Israel for the emergence of the messiah. It wasn't a random coming. The time had to be right for Jesus to be born. All of history led up to that exact moment of His birth as well as His resurrection. In like manner, the prophecies that have gone ahead concerning you require seasons of preparation before they can be fulfilled. There are silent labours before a breakthrough occurs. It's in these seasons of obscurity that you gather the character combination you'll need to sustain the coming emergence into the limelight. Isa.54.2; "Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations: spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes;" Enlarge the place of your tent first. Give yourself to stretching forth and lengthening your cords. Pay attention to the strengthening of your stakes. These are all uncomfortable tasks. They represent the strengthening of your spiritual stamina; the stretching of your mind to accommodate the possibilities of impossibles; the lengthening of your skills and abilities. What's the purpose of all this preparation? Isa.54.3; "For thou shalt break forth on the right hand and on the left; and thy seed shall inherit the Gentiles, and make the desolate cities to be inhabited". So, emergence is the purpose of all your preparation. Breaking forth is the goal and preparation is the process. Through the discipline of practice, learning and experience, you'll develop the tenacity needed to enter and sustain the next level of increase you're about to enter. Begin to take your preparation more seriously. You have received God's word concerning your life; now it's time to actively prepare for the fulfillment. Shalom Uvracha!
