Littlestone was riding again up to the His Meeting Place. Aalyiah was very frisky in the cold weather as the temperature dropped significantly as they ascended to meet with his King….
His face was burning as they trotted up the hill. The cold wind was stimulating his being. He took in the bright sun rising in a clear sky ahead of him. Just as he took in a deep cold breath, Aalyiah spooked and jumped sideways as a deer with a large set of antlers lifted his head…..
Littlestone patted her neck and comforted her. He gently said, it is okay, I know you thought it was a bush and then it moved to a big horse with sticks coming out of his head….He smiled as he chuckled. She sneezed trying to shrug off her embarrassment of getting startled.
They reached their destination as he hopped off her. He released the bridle and put the halter on to allow her to graze and cool off. They both heard the babbling brook sing her song out to her Creator.
The flow of His river will never stop. Top of the mountain to the valley, His river bellows forth. Bringing His refreshing water to every soul. Singing out, I am sent from Him who holds me in His hand…. I am sent to bring the healing of many that have kneeled to Him alone. Here I go and here I am filling the hearts of man.
He sat and listened to her song as the song was loud and the birds joined in with their medley to their King. It was a beautiful orchestra thought Littlestone.
He opened his journal and read all that had happened over the last four months. He remembered many a night and hungry day staying in front of Him in prayer.
The world was changed in an instant, His hand of mercy sprayed it’s rays over the lands. Healing has begun and all will see His glory now and again. The talk and rumors of wars will be halted by the kindness of His hand in strength, hoping in his heart, thought Littlestone.
But the war will always be between evil and His reign over His creation. He wondered how many wars could be halted if the saints stayed in position of quietness before Him and interceded. Some jump up in victory as they think the battle is won, but alas, he thought, a battle has been won but the war is still going on.
He prayed to His King for the holidays not to get people off their knees…..
Yes, he thought, we celebrate that You gave us Your Son…… Your Son has been given….. Your Son has died and has risen….. He now sits above all in His throne…..
Those who listen to the stillness, can hear His cry to His beloved, Come up here!
He prayed, Father God, please allow the people who call on Your Son’s name, to know above all, we have been brought up to His throne. We are seated now in the heavenly places learning and speaking what we hear….. Our place is not to leave but to remain there.
Set our eyes on things above where we are seated with the Heavenly One.
Don’t get distracted by earthly things that will vanish before the year that begins brings.
May we know this may be the Christmas that His river runs through us again and again….
Father, awaken us to know we must remain faithful to the post You have called us….May You be so pleased to see all the saints coming to their knees. They have heeded the call and are coming up to You because they believe…. Their place with You is where You are…..
What better place to be, then to be sitting at Your feet. Seeing Your smile looking at us and then turning Your eyes to the place of trouble…
He said:
“The Lord came from Sinai
and dawned over them from Seir;
he shone forth from Mount Paran.
He came with myriads of holy ones
from the south, from his mountain slopes.[b]
3 Surely it is you who love the people;
all the holy ones are in your hand.
At your feet they all bow down,
and from you receive instruction, Deuteronomy 33:2-3.
We know our prayers in diligence bring peace and comfort to those in despair.
Our prayers are as arrows going forth by His hand to those who need His help as we lend our hand, really a prayer. These touches of our King are known by the hearts He pours His love in and He is the One who glory we lift up.
The gift of sitting where He is in faith and following His Spirit not by sight nor by power but by the Spirit is His way and glory to God that we partake.
Great is the gift of salvation given to us. But how much more do You have in store for us, My King.
Our purpose is greater than not going to hell. Oh no, awaken our eyes and see that Your purpose in us and through us must be complete. We do not want to frustrate the King as His body, we must obey our Head and be obedient and go where and speak where and kneel here as He commands.
The wilderness always leads us to Your land. In Christ, we live, move and have our being. In Christ, where we abide and there is more to know than will ever meet our eyes.
He is the head and we are complete in Him as Colossians speaks. Ride His Spirit into the unknown and follow our faith to faith and glory to glory trail in His throne. Who knows but we may be answering the high calling of God in Christ Jesus this day….. Do not delay… Seek and know Him today….. The wise are still seeking Him this way.
Do not look back and do not hesitate, we must not be late… Come all who call on the King of glory.
Has He entered your heart to reign?
Has He been given all authority within and without the place of your feet?
Listen, shhh, listen……. Hear His whisper calling your name?
Listen now and turn….. Turn your heart open to Him…
He is not a baby any longer….
He is not in a grave any longer…..
Hear His roar as He is King over all!
Littlestone was writing down all that was flying through his head. He did not want to miss one word that Holy Spirit said.
Then He heard a beautiful song of praise toward the One who shines brighter than the sun.
Listen……
Keep the place He has called you to be, up here at His feet….. It is His throne, please believe.
Selah!
So glad that Littlestone is back!!
