RHEMA 1/06/13 LEAN AND CLING IN 2013

Today I had a quickened request from a reader from Facebook and I knew it was the Lord, because of the buzz word “deliverer” in it. I have been praying about that buzz word to understand it better. The Word the Lord gave me for 2013 was about crossing over on the bridge over troubled waters.

NOTE FROM FB READER 1/06/12

Hi Sandy,
I just found one of your Word2Ponder words and was wondering if you could re-post it on Facebook -

It was LEANING STONES and the date was June 16, 2006 and had a picture of a stone bridge. The Scripture reference was Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 NKJV.

I feel very strongly that this is a NOW word for many in the Body of Christ.

Love and Blessings,

LEANING STONES

SANDY RHEMA 3/22/06 LEANING STONES

Today Wayne told me of his prayer that the Lord would give us grace to lean on one-another. He was speaking of that fact that we are two weak vessels and most days it is as though we are 2 half people making one whole person. He said that the picture he got was like 2 huge wedge like stones leaning on one another, forming an arch. I immediately thought of keystones at the center of a bridge taking the centered pressure from all the other stones set into place. It is the leaning of each stone that brings the strength of the bridge to be able to bare much weight.

UPDATE SANDY RHEMA 3/25/06

HEARD: I will help you through this transition. Bridge. Coming through to the other side. I am helping you see things.  I'm angry with you. Nothing could be further than the truth. This is condemnation, pure and simple. I am in need of you. 

Separated. Divided. No. One accord. Unity. Gently, I need her. Turned on the juice. I am a mess. It just seems like it. You are really quite stable. I have a hold of you. Raise up a deliverer from among you. She's the one we want. She has held up my hands, I will hold up hers.

UPDATE CONFIRMATION: 3/25/06 Tonight at church I saw a vision where I was crawling along the stone bridge inspecting cracks. Then I laid spread eagle on my stomach and stretched my arms out over the stones. I had such love, longing and yearning for these, it was like I was hugging these stones. Prior to that in the prayer room I was praying that the Lord place the burnt stones, the broken stones and the displaced stones into place along the wall. There are many intercessors waiting on God and forming this bridge.

Ezek 16:8 NKJV

"When I passed by you again and looked upon you, indeed your time was the time of love; so I spread My wing over you and covered your nakedness. Yes, I swore an oath to you and entered into a covenant with you, and you became Mine," says the Lord GOD.

WORD TO PONDER: LEANING STONES 3/22/06

I have set you into place, My keystones, you who are bearing much weight. So much pressure you bear as you have yielded to the straight and narrow. Willing and yielded, yet strong and unbending as you simply wait on Me. How dear your hearts are to Me, you who have formed My bridge for those who would cross over your backs! Waiting on Me, determined not to shift your faith, every moment counted as a precious breath as you live to sustain another who leans and presses in along side. Deliverers, I have raised up deliverers who bear another generation forward into their destiny.

Eccl 4:9 - 12 NKJV

Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their labor. For if they fall, one will lift up his companion. But woe to him who is alone when he falls, for he has no one to help him up. Again, if two lie down together, they will keep warm; But how can one be warm alone? Though one may be overpowered by another, two can withstand him. and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.

UPDATE 1/08/13

Today someone shared that their church announced the Word of the Lord for 2013 was "Lean in 2013." They were wanting to come up with a word that rhymed with the year. I smiled that they were "trying" to come up with a Word. But I also knew it WAS His Word, because today I prayed the following prayer!

"Lord I dont have the foggiest idea what I am doing. I am so weak and broken that all I can do is LEAN on You. That is all I have to offer. I cant seem to do anything else, and I hope it is enough!"

Wow what an answer to prayer and comfort for us all.

Song of Solomon 8:5
"Who is this coming up from the wilderness Leaning on her beloved?"

I have been pondering the idea of leaning, and the scripture about abiding in Him came so strongly to me. Then suddenly I thought LEAN AND CLING IN 2013!!! Yea Lord! Abiding in the vine is literally clinging to the branch/ source of life.

LEAN AND CLING 1/06/13
Dear ones, I understand you feel weak and outnumbered in circumstances you are facing.  Be of good cheer, I have overcome the world. Like a branch clinging to its vine, that is how I want you to cling to Me.  All your life nutrients are there for you and everything you need to flourish is provided.  If you lean and cling to Me, I will support you, back you, and strengthen you to overcome all that you face.  This produces so much fruit, it will be OUR fruit in all the places we partnered together.  You are never alone dear ones!

John 15

"I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser. 2 Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit. 3 You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you. 4 Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me. 5 " 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.
