Talking To Me
Sums my self-assessment and hopes: Be good for something. 'Youngs Literal' goes; ...who is teaching My hands for war.
Quiet is where the action's at. Yet, we're schooled in the bombardment and thundering clashes signifying conflict. Hard to equate the root battles are silent. In the night or shut-off from -- since it's never, completely still. Different noise.
Graphic opportunity to interface with unseen and other. Less distraction in illustrative terms.
Precious early mornings. The lack of sounds-about, helpful. Somehow the best time of the day. Stop and start-praying, helped by typing. Revving the engine.
Bible says; outcomes come through engagement with God. Determines much of what happens/seen. Or would do -- If?
Lots of 'talking about' is a questionable activity. The information war. Education, teaching... think more and better, will get us somewhere? Which is______?
Where to and why? What's possible? Who cares?
Talking to myself. Get this. Talking to God, do believe. Typing to faith-build and prophesy.
Down to the 'why' and -- God wants. This what. People aren't too much bothered the world so topsy-turvy. Vulnerable to capsize and overturning in socio-economic, freedoms and safety.
Ones who are? Often dissipated through discouragement. Holding with who can and some upward motion but there's little cohesion. Like the church, growth matters, but floundering.
Will 'encourage' but this very act of, the lacking and why truth-talking -and- gathering to God is so lame. Fragile. Not much uptake. Thin on the... etc. etc. Lack of 'lift another up' and along. One big reason. Get a wee click and build a mini-empire. Or... alone.
The good news and hopeful? God wants war. The non-physical kind and make moves in our realm. Fulfil promises.
Our modern world projects antidote images. Two examples are; The Police and Computers. Hard to shrug off thinking provision for a safe and fruitful life hasn't arrived. We are being watched and protected. Even other dimensions supposed in Govt/s grasp. Or some deal with. This, until Proj. Bluebeam 2 flashes out to freak and corral.
The capacity to manage is the message from the screens.
The good-upside of (my) not managing so well is lack of planned pretence. Talking tomorrow this and that is inadvertent or intentional adherence to rolling on. A kind of faith. Question: In who/m and what?
God? Wants... we meet. First and for all. Less need = less need to. The byproduct of this and nations, states, etc's is hidden ground become taken over. By forces with human-like capacity. This translates into the growing of their anti-Christ religion. Gets around, on earth, as it is in... their ways.
God makes trillions of moves to counter and love us. We're the conduit, indirect or otherwise, for this. Some get through, some fall to the ground. The metaphor is a farmer, seeds and harvest.
The way is; We (can) hear what God's saying. For praying with God and for -- by and with, his set-apart, enabling presence. Wants and ways. The faith and love we exercise is the catalyst. Things happen.
All our training is for this. There were apostles and The apostles (12). Nowadays? A bit like next named role; Prophet -- prefer to talk, being is doing P, rather than self- or fans designating the label.
Apostle-now, wouldn't use this A word but... is someone going out and local church-planting and relating back to these 'works'.
Prophet. As if... "Oh my..." Still looking for any sense let alone consistency to warrant calling out there's any/one of these. Operating prophetically..? Possible but rare, outside the local, or for individuals.
Then comes a teacher. Again, as far as, is teach-ing. And this a reality of what gets in. More doing, proceeding fixed and describing.
Leave it here for now. The list:
And some, indeed, did God set in the assembly, first apostles, secondly prophets, thirdly teachers, afterwards powers, afterwards gifts of healings, helpings, governings, divers kinds of tongues;
Nb. no mention of get-down, stay-on, don't get up, keep going, do more, never stop, active wait and warfare. Worship and the Word open and volume.
No? Because this, with fasting -- assumed. The weapons we fight with are...
