The Tabernacle

Creating ’spaces’ to experience the presence of God

Fire balls…Corroboree…New Song

January 27th, 2010

imagesCA8ABUX4.jpg  The last 5 days I have been in a ‘walkabout’ with the Lord. It’s been a set apart, intentional time with Him. On day 3, suddenly for the first time in 3 months, the wind sprung up. During this day, the following picture I saw. Isaiah 5:26 is echoing in our day.. “He will lift up a banner to the nations from afar, And will whistle to them from the end of the earth, surely they shall come with speed, swiftly.”

“I saw dry wheat fields surrounded & littered with eucalyptus gum trees.
I saw people who looked like ghosts – white & pale.
They suddenly stepped out from behind the gum trees.
As I saw these people,
lots of them
I realized they were Australian Aboriginals painted with white paint on their faces & hands.
There were as many of them as trees & the boundary fence line was stacked with trees.
They stepped out & simply stood there.
They stepped out as if their name had been called.
Suddenly balls of fires from the heavens
shot down
hitting them in the chest.
After impact, I saw them immediately transformed.
They were hugely tall
like Afro-American basketball players.
They assumed the position of a dance as in a Corroboree.
They were wearing what is worn at such an event.
Their chant echoed
strongly across the plains.
I saw what seemed like sudden chaos in the heavens
As stars shot in all directions
clouds moved rapidly across the skies
coming together with a thunder clap & bolts of lightning.
A strong wind blew violently
& I saw ones in other nations who were at work in fields,
homes
buildings
suddenly stop & turn as if hearing all this.
Right across the nations,
one by one they stopped,
looked,
listened.
Then one almighty lightning hit across the entire earth’s sky;
so that at one time
all could see it
together.
Upon seeing it, they dropped what they held their hands & walked towards the east.
Suddenly they fell one by one
on their faces
lying prostrate on the ground.
A deep holiness consumed them.
They were so in awe of the beauty of His holiness,
they almost dare not breathe.
Under their bodies they felt the movement & vibrations of the earth that comes when a Corroboree dance is in action.
Their bodies vibrated with the rhythm & beat of the stamping of feet.
This vibration filled their inner being
& they rose
& walked
with a new song
& dance.
They exalted & hailed the coming of the KING.
They saw each other & joined hands
all around the world,
linking together the entire circumference of the earth’s globe.
Dancing, singing praise to the King of Kings.
Their song echoed in the universe
& in the depths of the earth’s crust.
Strong was their link to each other.
Long & loud was their song.”

Why are we here?

January 22nd, 2010

We had a local Intercessor and prayer warrior at our house on Saturday night, God seems to have these people strategically placed in cities, praying and interceding, changing outcomes at the will of the Father. We certainly know of some in Munich, Tubingen and in Adelaide and many other cities, now we have met some of God’s prayers here in Denver.
While he was here He asked God for a word for us and also why we were here. Here is the picture that God then gave.

When I inquired of the Lord for something He had for you & simultaneously asking why you were here I saw the following:

I saw Jesus standing over the landscape and He was very large: towering above the surrounding countryside, big and tall enough so anyone in this region could easily see Him.  You both were standing on the ground like in an open field and He was standing directly over you.  You were not visible, rather engulfed inside of him on the ground.  He was absolutely glorious and shining like gold brighter than anything on earth … literally radiating His Glory in indescribable splendour.  I felt the Lord saying this is a picture in the spirit realm of what you are bringing with you here, i.e. Jesus in all His true Glory and Splendour for all the people to see Him … not you, nor anyone or anything else, but Him.

That is it, and of course not “it” because there’s so much more about this than even I could imagine or conceive of!

Thank you for being faithful … I pray He keep you in Him always, giving you a love for Him and out of that His Bride that is pure, unspoiled holy as He is.

We are greatly encouraged by this picture and we believe it is a great picture of Tabernacle. Centring and focusing on Jesus and what He does, not on man and his efforts.

‘God who has called us is Faithful, He will do this.’ 1Thes 5:24

Loving Jesus 1st

January 20th, 2010

“By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God & keep His commandments.” 1 John 5:2

This morning as I was getting up, the Lord grabbed my attention as my eyes glossed this verse. I stopped & read it again. “By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God..”

We live in a time of history where one spiritual gift has been elevated into leadership of the people of God, the gift of pastor/teacher. With it comes a focus that is naturally upon people.

I was speaking on the phone to a friend in Australia the other night. This lady is an amazing woman & mother who has been lavishly gifted with a pastoral heart. As I shared some of what I was sensing prophetically, a response came out of this huge pastoral heart of hers. Empathy, compassion, care leaked through the phone line & flooded all over me. I was impacted.

Her heart was all about me – the person & for other people.

As I chewed on this verse over breakfast & the morning’s activities, I pondered.. when we love God, this is how we know we love the children of God. What a radical thought, that as we love God, we know we love His children.

Loving God is in a very real sense loving His children.

Just as others love our own children, we experience a dimension of that love & acceptance also as parents.

How many times have I been blessed as someone loved God, showing me what that looked like, like my Dad when he was alive, or tasted the fruit in a person who loves God. His perfume, fills them & is ‘smelt’ by others. As they ‘taste’ of Him, (Psalm 34:8) that flavor spreads.

Loving God is our greatest pastoral focus. Perhaps this is why it is the first & greatest commandment.

Jesus alone…

“This is a time & way not walked before;

I, Jesus, have invited you, “ Come walk with me,”

into the cloud of my Father’s presence, I go.

Transfigured. 

A generation needs to hear who I AM,

from my Father.”

“A voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is my Son, my Beloved; listen to Him!” 

And when the voice had spoken, Jesus was found alone.” Luke 9:35-36
