RHEMA 1/14/12  ADVANCING LITTLE BY LITTLE

 

PARABLE: I downloaded a new game to my iTouch called the Oregon Trail and tonight the QW came out about He is taking us to a better place.  I noticed in the instructions for the game was that if you chose to travel faster the family health declined faster.  They had 4 options for speed and the bottom one was the turtle.  With all my turtle rhema, I smiled!  This is a parable that the Lord will help us occupy the land of our promises little by little and not all at once. 

 

EXCERPT FROM TONIGHT’S QW

 

WORD TO PONDER: MATURITY IN YOUR GIFTS 9/03/11

After years of circling, My people have grown to maturity in the gifts they were given. Pressing against invisible boundaries, many have completely filled their pots and are root bound. I have heard your cries beloved ones, and I understand you do not want to re-invent the same wheels. I know you have grown tired of old manna and you are knocking on My door to grow and expand with new gifts and portions. You are not alone, this is a corporate issue and I have brought My own to a new door in a new time. Wait in earnest prayer that you will be given the grace to receive all that I have to pour out upon you. For I AM bringing you to a better place. Nothing has been wasted in your training years. Where you were faithful, you will be granted great increase and with great joy.

 

Matt 25:20-21 NKJV

"So he who had received five talents came and brought five other talents, saying, 'Lord, you delivered to me five talents; look, I have gained five more talents besides them.' 21 His lord said to him, 'Well done, good and faithful servant; you were faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.'

 

HEARDWe have not been this way before. 

 

TO A PLACE YOU HAVE NEVER BEEN BEFORE  9/12/10

Here you are, moving within a company of people.  As I have said before, My ark is moving.  Yes to a new place you have never been before.  Do not touch My holy place.  Do not meddle and do not touch.  My priests shall bear the ark and move ahead to face the flood waters.  They will stand in the gap as I bring My people with the ark of My Presence.

 

Josh 3:3-17 NKJV NKJV

When you see the ark of the covenant of the Lord your God, and the priests, the Levites, bearing it, then you shall set out from your place and go after it. 4 Yet there shall be a space between you and it, about two thousand cubits by measure. Do not come near it, that you may know the way by which you must go, for you have not passed this way before."  5 And Joshua said to the people, "Sanctify yourselves, for tomorrow the Lord will do wonders among you." 6 Then Joshua spoke to the priests, saying, "Take up the ark of the covenant and cross over before the people." So they took up the ark of the covenant and went before the people.

 

7 And the Lord said to Joshua, "This day I will begin to exalt you in the sight of all Israel, that they may know that, as I was with Moses, so I will be with you. 8 You shall command the priests who bear the ark of the covenant, saying, 'When you have come to the edge of the water of the Jordan, you shall stand in the Jordan.'"

 

9 So Joshua said to the children of Israel, "Come here, and hear the words of the Lord your God." 10 And Joshua said, "By this you shall know that the living God is among you, and that He will without fail drive out from before you the Canaanites and the Hittites and the Hivites and the Perizzites and the Girgashites and the Amorites and the Jebusites: 11 Behold, the ark of the covenant of the Lord of all the earth is crossing over before you into the Jordan. 12 Now therefore, take for yourselves twelve men from the tribes of Israel, one man from every tribe. 13 And it shall come to pass, as soon as the soles of the feet of the priests who bear the ark of the Lord, the Lord of all the earth, shall rest in the waters of the Jordan, that the waters of the Jordan shall be cut off, the waters that come down from upstream, and they shall stand as a heap."

 

14 So it was, when the people set out from their camp to cross over the Jordan, with the priests bearing the ark of the covenant before the people, 15 and as those who bore the ark came to the Jordan, and the feet of the priests who bore the ark dipped in the edge of the water (for the Jordan overflows all its banks during the whole time of harvest), 16 that the waters which came down from upstream stood still, and rose in a heap very far away at Adam, the city that is beside Zaretan. So the waters that went down into the Sea of the Arabah, the Salt Sea, failed, and were cut off; and the people crossed over opposite Jericho. 17 Then the priests who bore the ark of the covenant of the Lord stood firm on dry ground in the midst of the Jordan; and all Israel crossed over on dry ground, until all the people had crossed completely over the Jordan.
