RHEMA 8/21/08  FULLNESS OF TIME

This morning, Anna found her antique watch, the same as she gave me on Christmas morning 2004 (in the above post, text view).  Amazingly, the watch was sitting on her bathroom wash basin.  She doesn’t wear it any more and didnt remember putting it there.  She felt the Lord was telling her to observe the TIME.  Then she opened up an email with an hour glass graphic and the email was called The Final Call: The Fullness of Times.

This was strongly quickened to me because in 2004 I had heard the phrase, "Give them what they want"  and remembered the 2004 posts.  It so struck me with the fear of God that I did not write it down!  The last time I heard that phrase it was in 2004 and many other prophetic people heard similar.  The year 2004 was the year of open doors and many people fell into presumption by being given what they wanted.  It was a time of receiving promises but also learning to yield to God’s timing of when they would come to pass. 

I have pondered the warnings that come with such a Word, “Give them what they want!”  And twice since then, the Lord has sent confirmations:

QUICKENED QUOTE  8/18/08

“If we pray hard enough, we can press God to give us what we want.”  When I heard someone say that, I was thinking how we can press God to grant the blessing, but without the character to sustain that blessing, it will end up becoming a snare. 

Confirmation 8/23/08:  Tonight in the prayer room one of our intercessors saw an hour glass and heard now is the time. 

As I have prayed about this theme, the Lord led me to the above post, The Door of Yes.  I noticed the new beginning promise:

SANDY RHEMA 1/07/04

HEARD:  Before you stands an open door, sweet one.  I promised this to you, years ago.  The door of yes.  Where are we?  You will understand when you look them up.  It’s a new day in every way. 

VISION:  I saw that I hit the hard page return on my computer keyboard 8 times.  This keystroke created 8 new blank pages.  This represents a brand new beginning not yet written. 

This year 2008 is prophetically renown as the year of new beginnings.  I feel that what was promised in the year 2004 is now open for us to walk through in the fear of God, without presumption and begin to be given what we ask. 

Before we asked with ambition and soul, and that was cleansed and washed.  Now what remains of that time is being the friend of God, where we abide in His Words and His Words abide in us and we can ask what we will.

John 14:12-14  NKJV

"Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father.  13 And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.  14 If you ask  anything in My name, I will do it. 

John 15:5-8 NKJV

"I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.  6 If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned.  7 If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you.  8 By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be My disciples. 

John 16:24 NKJV

Until now you have asked nothing in My name. Ask , and you will receive, that your joy may be full. 

Matt 18:19-20 NKJV

"Again I say to you that if two of you agree on earth concerning anything that they ask , it will be done for them by My Father in heaven.  20 For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them." 

Matt 21:18-22 NKJV

Now in the morning, as He returned to the city, He was hungry. 19 And seeing a fig tree by the road, He came to it and found nothing on it but leaves, and said to it, "Let no fruit grow on you ever again." Immediately the fig tree withered away. And when the disciples saw it, they marveled, saying, "How did the fig tree wither away so soon?"  21 So Jesus answered and said to them, "Assuredly, I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you will not only do what was done to the fig tree, but also if you say to this mountain, 'Be removed and be cast into the sea,' it will be done.  22 And whatever things you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive."

UPDATE COMMENTS 10/11/08:  The Lord gave me a Word for Day of Atonement, 2009 and Beyond.  This is about walking through many open doors to find the place to settle.  I believe that the doors are wide open, but when we walk in, we need to discern the fit and then exit out and into another door until what is discerned fits our search.  We learned much in 2004 (and thus following through with its ramifications) and now it is time to practice what we learned in each door of opportunity we find.
