RHEMA 4/25/14  TIME MANAGEMENT:  OCCUPY UNTIL I COME

TIME MANAGEMENT: The Lord brought the revelation He gave me in January into memory today.  So I feel prompted to share it now.

Like everyone, I have seasons in my life that are busier than others and some are more stressful than others.  In regards to these things, I have struggled over my calling(s) plural and time management throughout the years in regards to priorities.  I have things I am supposed to do (be faithful and committed to follow through and not quit because it is vital to the kingdom and He depends upon me to follow through, angels depend and people depend on these matters.)

And then I have things I get to do that I enjoy that are gifts and talents He has given me, that I choose to be used to bless others instead of consuming on myself.  In regards to both the investments into my callings and also gifts/ talents, I expect rewards, recompense and promotions in this life before the millennium and in the age to come during the millennium and then in the ages to come after that. 

There are times when what I am called to do has become so overwhelming in regards to overcoming the obstacles that I cant go another step and God puts me on vacation where I get to play and use my gifts and talents.  And it is a whole other life that He grants me so I can be refreshed and recover.   There have been many times where He has actually let me know ahead of time how long my “vacation” will last and so I am also able to put that time into perspective with how to manage things so things don’t crumble when I am “away.”

The challenge for me that I had to resolve is what am I called to do that is vital that He wont relent on.  And what things He has given to me that are used for His Kingdom that are less vital.  He has promised His anointing is upon all of these things, as they come from Him to be used for His glory.  More often than juggling every day, the gifts and talents are more like seasons for me.

RHEMA 1/25/14  OCCUPYING UNTIL HE COMES:  REWARD IS IN MILLENNIUM

HEARD:  Occupy until I come.  Journal, I commanded a blessing. 

REVELATION:  Yesterday on my walk, the parable of the 10 servants being given 10 pounds came on and after all these years (!!!) I suddenly knew the understanding of my “Gentlemen, we shall rebuild” vision.   Wow what a difference revelation makes. 

TRANCE VISION 1980’S

I had a trance vision that I literally experienced, so perhaps it was more of a prophetic encounter where I was taken ahead in time and literally there.  I walked into a board room that had a table of 10 men.  They were waiting for me and all stood up when I walked in.  I went to the head of the table and raised my glass to them saying, “Gentlemen, we shall rebuild.”  All of us raised our glasses and they were exactly half full of water. 

I have said many, many times that I felt the online ministry I was doing was merely occupying until He comes and something He gave me to do to be helpful.  And that my real ministry/ calling was to stand in the gap for the next generation.  My labors of scribing has been my work of being about My Father’s business.  Yes it has been exactly like a job in a business and I love serving Him!

Luke 2:49 And he said unto them, How is it that you sought me? knew you not that I must be about my Father's business?

John 4:34 Jesus said unto them, My food is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.

John 9:4 I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night comes, when no man can work.

The revelation was that suddenly I understood the following parable of occupying until He comes and the men in the board room were builders for 10 cities that I had been given to rebuild in the millennium.  Later after I did the word study in the Greek, I had confirmations that this parable was about busying oneself and thoroughly occupying oneself with deeds, matters, work, and business. Then when the Lord returns to occupy His kingdom, we will be given power, capacity, superhuman, token of control, delegate influence, authority, jurisdiction, right and strength over what He assigns.  This parable is not just about money!  I have had many visions and words of the Lord telling me He had deposited more into my account.

Luke 19:12-26 He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return. 13 And he called his ten servants, and delivered to them ten pounds, and said unto them, Occupy till I come. 14 But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after him, saying, We will not have this man to reign over us. 15 And it came to pass, that when he was returned, having received the kingdom, then he commanded these servants to be called unto him, to whom he had given the money, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading. 16 Then came the first, saying, Lord, your pound has gained ten pounds. 17 And he said unto him, Well done, good servant: because you have been faithful in a very little, have authority over ten cities. 18 And the second came, saying, Lord, your pound has gained five pounds. 19 And he said likewise to him, Be also over five cities. 20 And another came, saying, Lord, behold, here is your pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin: 21 For I feared you, because you are a severe man: you take up what you laid not down, and reap what you did not sow. 22 And he said unto him, Out of your own mouth will I judge you, you wicked servant. You knew that I was a severe man, taking up what I laid not down, and reaping what I did not sow: 23 Why then gave not you my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required my own with interest? 24 And he said unto them that stood by, Take from him the pound, and give it to him that has ten pounds. 25 (And they said unto him, Lord, he has ten pounds.) 26 For I say unto you, That unto everyone who has shall be given; and from him that has not, even what he has shall be taken away from him.
