He is Returning!

A few days before I departed for Georgia Trisha and Myself found out that we're pregnant. The natural feeling was, 'this couldn't have been worse timing.' But rather than this I was filled with a joyous expectation that this child is from God and that the timing couldn't have been more perfect! After all God's plans are not always our plans.

While here in Azerbaijan I was filled for a longing to be home during Trisha’s pregnancy, and to be present during my child’s birth. During this time the Holy Spirit descended on me and I began to weep under an intercessory anointing. I sensed that God was saying, “I am coming back for My son. I am coming back for My children. I love My children and I am coming back for You.”

God passionately loves His children and I believe He is making His last preparations before His return! So what does that look like? The sense that I have had since the beginning of this walk, and I’ve made mention of this before, is that He is restoring the familial relationships on Earth. I believe He is greatly concerned with the relationships of, ‘fathers and their children…less He smite the land with a curse. Malachi ch 4: vs. 5,6.’ I think that these every day relationships are representative of God the Father’s relationship with His children, us. After all we are created in His image, and we do represent Him as His ambassadors.

So as I mentioned in the last posting, that He is coming for His bride, I believe that He is pressing on my heart that He is coming for His children. This repetition reminds me of His parables in the gospels. When He was making an especially important point He would tell numerous parables back to back that all revealed the same point except in different ways. This leads me to believe that what He’s saying is quite important! Again, I believe that God is saying that He aims at returning soon, and that He is sending forth the Elijah spirit to pave the way for that coming!

As the spirit of Elijah, in the form of John the Baptist, prepared the way for Jesus I believe that Jesus is sending the spirit of Elijah again, and that He is doing this now! Today, however, it is quite different because the Holy Spirit is here to bless all men. I think the spirit of Elijah that is going forth today is comprised of many of His children operating in a spirit of unity. What John the Baptist, as only one man, could do before Christ’s first coming, His children, as thousands today, can prepare a much stronger spiritual climate for His second coming. And that ‘coming’ is soon!
