So get to work! God is speaking.
Get to work Joshua-high priest!
Get to work, all of you people! God is speaking.
Yes, get to work! For I am with you.
Put into action the word I covenanted with you when you left Egypt.
I'm living and breathing among you right now. Don't be timid. Don't hold back.
Before you know it, I will shake up the earth and sky, ocean and fields. And I'll shake down all the godless nations. They'll bring bushels of wealth and I will fill this Temple with splendor.
I own the silver, I own the gold.
This Temple is going to end up far better than it started out, a glorious beginning but an even more glorious finish: a place in which I will hand out wholeness and holiness.....Says the Lord."
This is the word of the Lord I feel in my spirit right now for the true worshippers of the living God.
This is for real houses of worship. Where He is near to their heart and not just on their lips.
I feel a great word of warning to the houses where He and His word are only on their lips.
I had a word from the Lord the other day and He said,
"I will do it because I AM holy. Not because men wear my Word on them like a badge of honor-BUT because I AM the Great I AM..
My son paid the price, not you! Man can be broken but my son lives forever. Man can be beaten but I live forever. I will deliver my people because I AM the I AM not because you speak my words out of your mouth. Not because you sing my praise but because I Am the Great I Am."
My spirit was convicted of the way I bring forth His word. It was grieved because we have all taken His works and made them ours. I had a fresh revelation that it is His son that paid the price and not me who feels weighted down with works. I was in awe of Him....not me. It is the work He is doing in these last days...not me!
This Temple will end up Better than it started out...because of Him and His son.
Dear Heavenly Father,
You are Holy, Holy, Holy.
We bow down and worship you.
Have your way.
Make us better than we started out!
Finish us strong Lord!
Made whole by your hand.
For YOUR GLORY!
In your mighty Son's name, Jesus.
Amen
