Following footprints on the journey of central Asia

Following footprints on the journey of central Asia

“Some large gathering of different churches and denominations was shown. Among them were respectable men – neatly dressed, nice looking, but their speech was childish, their speech was no different from children. And there was a resonance, a big discrepancy between their appearance and their speech.

There were also young people from a younger generation, but they spoke and reasoned like mature men, and their speech was literate and intelligible. Although their appearance was not as nice and respectable, their interior was of high spirit.

The man of God was there, and respectable people who talked like children really wanted to talk with the man of God, but the man of God chose the new generation, with whom a wonderful, amazing conversation began, which was sometimes understood without words.

It was a joining of spirits and generations, which respectable men with childish speech couldn’t make.”

I find this revelation important, relevant and actually face this periodically. And we continue to be babies, “stuck” in traditions and rituals, church pragmatics, when church life, community life, activities, matters of a religious nature become a mask, a screen, they are presented instead of life, Ruach, instead of the revelation of the living God.

Such imaginary activity – fuss around community life, with the name of Christ, with quotations from the Bible, with conversations about some kind of church spiritual activity, replaces the breath of life. And it is difficult to take pleasure in such fellowship, because it is impossible to talk about God – about the very source of life. It is very difficult. I see this revelation. It came recently. And it gives full understanding and comfort in the heart that, indeed, the period of how long we’ve believed doesn’t guarantee that we are growing. We can be believers for years, as Paul writes, but remain infants.

And the generation that preserves the young heart of Christ – and we are not talking only about age – that lives in the spirit and blazes and burns in the spirit – this is the generation of Elihu, who admonished the elders who spoke foolishly about God. Elihu was burning in spirit: “The breath of the Almighty compels me, and I will speak for God.” And the Lord continued his speech from the thunder. Elihu appears here as an evangelist who stood up for God, blocking the incorrect speeches of the elders, Job’s friends.

Hasten, brothers and sisters, to know the truth! Find the young heart of Christ! Burn with fire so as not to turn into boring, old, uninteresting people with whom you can only talk about religion, and not about the living Word and the living Spirit.

I find this revelation to be true. That’s right: I find people difficult to communicate with, although they should be teachers by age. And I find young hearts with whom I find joy in being joined in God, because they are ablaze with love and passion. This is something I myself try to hold on to and I hope that the Lord will keep me in this fire till the eternal day!

Revelation

“The man of God was shown standing as if waiting and praying. Someone or something was trying to rush him. But the man of God was waiting. Suddenly everything begins to move, the roads that were twisted and full of holes began to rise and level out. They rose very high and stopped. From above, high roads began to descend from heaven onto these roads. And they began to connect, correcting their direction and height. It was powerful. At one point everything stopped. The man of God stood on one of the roads. A whirlwind arose, which began to change time and speed. The man of God was walking along the road. A fire was rising ahead. Everyone was running away from it  in horror. It was shown that what appeared to be writings came out of the fire in a language that was unknown and instilled terror in those fleeing.

The man of God looked at these writings, wrote them down in his notebook, and walked in the direction of the fire.”

Today we do not need to run away, but we need to take a position – stand, and not run, stop, and not run. And if you don’t take a stand, you can’t be safe. Some of us live in a “safer” place, but this is only temporary. Misfortune may fall on you right in the room, a stroke may befall you in the kitchen, your last hour may come in bed. And no one will save you, because heaven will find you. And as it is written that there were plagues in Egypt, and in the parables of Solomon it is said that when tangible darkness overtook the Egyptians during the times of judgment and execution, during the time of Moses and Aaron, then at the moment of perishing from this tangible darkness, people remembered their sins . At the last moment, people would get a picture of why they were being punished with darkness. This is something that no one can escape. And we must take our stand.

It says that someone was rushing the man of God, but he was waiting. Events intensify, raise hysteria, raise emotions and feelings, they put pressure on us to change the speed, so that we disconnect from the speed of eternity, but we must stand, stand in God.

And the roads on the ground were winding, with holes and so on, and they began to rise high and stopped. And from heaven the high roads began to descend onto these roads. This is the destiny of the Lord, this is your purpose. They began to connect, correcting the direction and height.

I  understand this revelation clearly. It was powerful. This is true. And a whirlwind arose, it began to change time and speed.

You don’t know what awaits us tomorrow. Nobody literally knows exactly what awaits us. But we must take a stand. This fire frightened everyone, everyone fled from it in horror, but it was shown that writings came out of it, and this language is the language of events, the language of these writings must be known among God’s people.

The man of God looked at these writings, wrote them down in his notebook, and walked in the direction of the fire. This is the only way.

And one more revelation. Night experience.

“There was a knock on the door. And a voice: “Here I am standing at the door and knocking. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me.”

You know that these words were spoken by Christ, and they are one of the last words that man can hear.

How does the Lord knock on our doors? Not always literally with your hand on the door. Sometimes with a fist. He also knocks with illnesses – unforeseen, fatal – when we can realize that we are at the threshold of eternity – this is also the knock of the Lord. He can knock on our doors with unforeseen circumstances that are extreme, they are beyond ordinary, something that you have never experienced before.

He can knock on our door, thank God, with blessings! This is also His knock. But He can  knock on our door with a final warning. This is also His knock. Be careful and discern. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.

I am not calling the knock of the Lord today – it is here. I am calling for an open ear of our hearts to hear this knock today and open the door for Him. Open the door of your hearts, brothers and sisters, because the Lord can pass by if you don’t open it to Him. He won’t be standing at our door all evening. Opportunities have a time frame. And the Lord knocks, He will not stand at our door forever. May we open the doors to Him and take the right position in this time of prophecy.

We are people of the rapture. Let’s honestly examine ourselves – will we be taken into the rapture if the Lord comes tonight? Will we hear this last trumpet when the Angel blows? Will we hear it with our ears and will we be resurrected, exchanging our bodies for the eternal ones? Will we be able to rise from our homes and jobs – to rise into heaven to meet the Lord? Will we be able to leave behind everything that is earthly, that will not drag us along, draw us to the earth? Can we easily rise in the rapture? Sadly, for many of us these words are not something significant. They are like pathos, but it’s true – that’s how it will be.

Even as you watch the news, be careful, look into the Bible, look prophetically at these things. Look at what God said. Don’t fuss, don’t get hysterical. Remember, as in this revelation, that there was pressure to rush. Take your time! Contemplate prophecy, revelation. Be wise.

Today, through the Calvary cross of Christ, the Lord loved the nations. And He is bringing all things to the point where all people may bow their hearts and knees before Him. To some He is knocking with mercy, to others with a blessing, to third – with judgments, to the fourth with warnings, to the fifth with taking all things away  – like Job, He deprived him of his family and wealth. And He knocks on every nation in a special way. The Lord stands at the door and knocks on the nations, on our doors! Hear His knock! You can discern by the knock, by the knock code. Read it as He knocks. Does He knock with anger and rage, or with mercy and call? Hear His knock and hear the Voice of God in this knock!

 “…For the Lord will not cast off forever. Though He causes grief, yet He will show compassion according to the multitude of His mercies.  For He does not afflict willingly, nor grieve the children of men.  To crush under one’s feet all the prisoners of the earth, to turn aside the justice due a man before the face of the Most High, or subvert a man in his cause—the Lord does not approve. Who is he who speaks and it comes to pass, when the Lord has not commanded it?  Is it not from the mouth of the Most High that woe and well-being proceed? Why should a living man complain, a man for the punishment of his sins?  Let us search out and examine our ways,

And turn back to the Lord;  Let us lift our hearts and hands to God in heaven.  We have transgressed and rebelled; you have not pardoned.” (Lamentations 3: 31 – 42).

And as it is written in Scripture that He does not afflict or grieve according to the will of His heart, but when they crush under one’s feet all the prisoners of the earth and turn aside the justice.

Therefore, for me this is not an accident. I feel my heart beating, I feel the knock on the door, I feel this day approaching. And, as was shown in this vision, how roads were raised from the lowlands and faults, and heavenly roads came from heaven and connected with these earthly roads, and fire was ahead with writings, and people fled in horror from these writings, because they could not read the signs, and we must learn to read the signs. But the man of God walked into the fire. Go into the fire! Don’t run from the fire! But to withstand this fire, you yourself need to be the fire.

There is truth. One truth. Fruit grows from truth and righteousness. It doesn’t grow from words. Evangelism is not words. The gospel is the truth. If you speak words, but your life is not established according to them, then there will be no fruit there. Fruit doesn’t grow from words, fruit grows from the truth. Just as glory is on the throne, just as love lives in the heart, in the heart of the Lord, so fruit doesn’t grow from words, it grows from truth and righteousness. Understand that the soil for the root system to bear fruit is in righteousness. The Lord calls heaven the land of righteousness, where righteousness dwells.

Let’s make our lives a place where righteousness dwells. There is only one righteousness. Or rather, there are contenders for this righteousness, there is human righteousness, there is your own truth, but it is worth nothing. And some people, affirmed in their truth, are offended. Take a man who stands in his own righteousness – he has people whom he blames in his life, take people who stand in the righteousness of their children, their neighbors – they talk about their own “righteousness”, and it is such confusion! But in fact, there is only one reality. There are many ideas, many philosophical schools, thousands of ideologies, but there is only one truth. It doesn’t matter what we think about it. But what is important is that we are in it, that we have it.

This is a complex, difficult topic. I approached this issue theologically, and it is not easy, it is a prophetic topic. But I would like to touch on it with the approach that each of us may remember this: find the righteousness of God. Find God’s righteousness about yourself in your life!

Don’t say from within yourself that you are so miserable, someone is to blame or not to blame, that you suffered from a person, someone is treating you unfairly. It is not true! There is only one righteousness – this is how God looks at you, how God looks at your circumstances. Only this righteousness is the true reality. This is what we are talking about – righteousness that grows into truth. And truth itself is the highest righteousness, in its highest manifestation, just as wisdom has highest wisdom, the highest righteousness is Christ. He is the truth Himself.

Remember a very important thing: find the righteousness of God and stand in it. If you stand in righteousness, then you will see God. Settle in this land – in the land of righteousness.

I want to say that there is the righteousness of God. And the righteousness of God is as Paul wrote:

 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek. For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “The righteous shall live by faith.” (Romans 1: 16-17).

The gospel reveals the righteousness of God: that Christ died for our sins, He paid the price, and the price is death, the wages of sin is death. Remember this – that the Lord took from us the death that we deserved. And the righteousness of God is not that He simply took this death away from us, as if it were a punishment, but He Himself died, that is, He paid to take death away from us!

He died on the cross in agony, suffering for us. This is God’s righteousness. Once again – that is, in the gospel of Christ the righteousness of God is revealed. Unfortunately, many believers cannot reveal the righteousness of God. They preach, but don’t know the revelation of the Cross. Like the blind, they don’t understand, they can’t explain the Gospel. Take a modern pastor and ask him to explain the Gospel, to tell him what the righteousness of God is – and he won’t be able to. He is a pastor, he preaches that one must go to church and not miss meetings, but he can’t reveal the truth of God. This is incredible! This is why there is no knowledge among the people, this is why there are forever babies in churches, this is why there are no revelations from the Bible, this is why there are no gifts in churches – because they have not comprehended Christ.

 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “The just shall live by faith.” For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness,  because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them.” (Romans 1:17-19).

God has shown His righteousness to all of us. And His wrath is revealed against the suppression of truth by unrighteousness.

People have manifested unrighteousness towards Christ, the Lamb of God. I want to touch on this. Injustice of people towards God. What we give to Him, the world gives to Him, is injustice, that is, unrighteousness. God gives righteousness to man, but man responds to Him with unrighteousness! Can you imagine what the “father of lies” is?! How he has taught people to lie! God sends him righteousness, and man responds to God with unrighteousness. And believers, Christians, respond to God with lies. Because when we distort the cross and the purpose of the cross, the purpose of the sacrifice on the cross, we give God unrighteousness in return. Instead of the fragrance of incense, we give Him something else.

 “Then Pilate asked Him, “Are You the King of the Jews?” He answered and said to him, “It is as you say.”  And the chief priests accused Him of many things, but He answered nothing. Then Pilate asked Him again, saying, “Do You answer nothing? See how many things they testify against You!”  But Jesus still answered nothing, so that Pilate marveled.

 Now at the feast he was accustomed to releasing one prisoner to them, whomever they requested. And there was one named Barabbas, who was chained with his fellow rebels; they had committed murder in the rebellion. Then the multitude, crying aloud, began to ask him to do just as he had always done for them. But Pilate answered them, saying, “Do you want me to release to you the King of the Jews?” For he knew that the chief priests had handed Him over because of envy. But the chief priests stirred up the crowd, so that he should rather release Barabbas to them.  Pilate answered and said to them again, “What then do you want me to do with Him whom you call the King of the Jews?” So they cried out again, “Crucify Him!” Then Pilate said to them, “Why, what evil has He done?” But they cried out all the more, “Crucify Him!” So Pilate, wanting to gratify the crowd, released Barabbas to them; and he delivered Jesus, after he had scourged Him, to be crucified.

Then the soldiers led Him away into the hall called Praetorium, and they called together the whole garrison. And they clothed Him with purple; and they twisted a crown of thorns, put it on His head, and began to salute Him, “Hail, King of the Jews!”  Then they struck Him on the head with a reed and spat on Him; and bowing the knee, they worshiped Him. And when they had mocked Him, they took the purple off Him, put His own clothes on Him, and led Him out to crucify Him.  Then they compelled a certain man, Simon a Cyrenian, the father of Alexander and Rufus, as he was coming out of the country and passing by, to bear His cross. And they brought Him to the place Golgotha, which is translated, Place of a Skull.  Then they gave Him wine mingled with myrrh to drink, but He did not take it. And when they crucified Him, they divided His garments, casting lots for them to determine what every man should take. Now it was the third hour, and they crucified Him. And the inscription of His accusation was written above: THE KING OF THE JEWS. With Him they also crucified two robbers, one on His right and the other on His left. So the Scripture was fulfilled which says, “And He was numbered with the transgressors.” And those who passed by blasphemed Him, wagging their heads and saying, “Aha! You who destroy the temple and build it in three days, save Yourself, and come down from the cross!” Likewise the chief priests also, mocking among themselves with the scribes, said, “He saved others; Himself He cannot save. Let the Christ, the King of Israel, descend now from the cross, that we may see and believe.” Even those who were crucified with Him reviled Him.

Now when the sixth hour had come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour. And at the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?” which is translated, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?” Some of those who stood by, when they heard that, said, “Look, He is calling for Elijah!”  Then someone ran and filled a sponge full of sour wine, put it on a reed, and offered it to Him to drink, saying, “Let Him alone; let us see if Elijah will come to take Him down.”  And Jesus cried out with a loud voice, and breathed His last.  Then the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. So when the centurion, who stood opposite Him, saw that He cried out like this and breathed His last, he said, “Truly this Man was the Son of God!” (Mark 15:2-38).

This is what we did with Him. God gave us righteousness from heaven, we gave Him unrighteousness from earth. God gave us a gift – His Son, who came to save us. We killed Him. We give God lies. This is our curse. And the man sends smoke and soot into heaven. God sends light. Man sends dirt, smoke, impurity, blasphemy. Then God turns to the Son and gives Him righteousness. There is righteousness of the Father to the Son. Paul writes:

“Paul, a bondservant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated to the gospel of God which He promised before through His prophets in the Holy Scriptures,  concerning His Son Jesus Christ our Lord, who was born of the seed of David according to the flesh, and declared to be the Son of God with power according to the Spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead. Through Him we have received grace and apostleship for obedience to the faith among all nations for His name, among whom you also are the called of Jesus Christ;” (Romans 1:1-6).

Do you see? We have a Bible lesson today. A lesson on the nature of the Lamb. Many pastors have stopped teaching from the Scriptures. They have no Word – other than exhortations to pray, go to church, be faithful, and so on. They’ve played in with religion instead of revealing the Son of God.

And so the Lord gives justice to the Son – He turns from people who burn give smoke and who give unrighteousness. He turns to His Son and raises Him from the dead. And it is written that He was revealed to be the Son of God with power according to the spirit of holiness by the resurrection from the dead. The Father turned with righteousness to the Son! And since the Son received injustice from people – He was beaten, humiliated and killed – the Father shed righteousness on the Son and resurrected Him!

The righteousness of God comes from heaven. God is not unrighteous. He will send this righteousness and is sending it!

“Now when He rose early on the first day of the week, He appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom He had cast seven demons. She went and told those who had been with Him, as they mourned and wept. And when they heard that He was alive and had been seen by her, they did not believe. After that, He appeared in another form to two of them as they walked and went into the country. And they went and told it to the rest, but they did not believe them either. Later He appeared to the eleven as they sat at the table; and He rebuked their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they did not believe those who had seen Him after He had risen” (Mark 16:9-14)

And finally, in conclusion. The justice of Christ to us. God sends righteousness to man, man responds with unrighteousness. God sends righteousness to Christ His Son and raises Him from the dead. And Christ sends righteousness to us.

Today I reveal to you the righteousness of God – what the righteousness of God is. The only righteousness that knocks on our door is the righteousness of the Father and the Son. Because we are entangled in our own unrighteousness, we blame people, we justify ourselves – this is one of the most sophisticated religious disgusting types of unrighteousness – when we blame others in our lives.

“But now the righteousness of God apart from the law is revealed, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets, even the righteousness of God, through faith in Jesus Christ, to all and on all who believe. For there is no difference;  for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, whom God set forth as a propitiation by His blood, through faith, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forbearance God had passed over the sins that were previously committed,  to demonstrate at the present time His righteousness, that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus.” (Romans 3:21-26).

“To demonstrate at the present time His righteousness”. His righteousness is now – at the present time. Remember this! His righteousness is at the present time.

May He appear righteous at this time. God is not unrighteous in your life. Don’t blame God for unrighteousness. Don’t complain about your life. God is not unrighteous in your life! You have accepted some unrighteousness if you complain. You have accepted unrighteousness because His righteousness is being revealed at this time. Haven’t you heard it? May He appear in your life as righteous and the justifier of the one who believes in Jesus.

“Where is boasting then? Excluded. By what law? Of works? No, but by the law of faith” (Romans 3:27).

I read the Scripture to you and it becomes clear. Do you see? This is where we need to dig, and not into business, tradition, church vanity, and so on. See Christ! Recognize God’s righteousness, accept it and enter into it, because there is only one righteousness. Among the heap of all kinds of righteousness, all of it are tares. But there is one righteousness – of the Father to us, of the Father to the Son, and of the Son to us. And this is all one righteousness, which is revealed to us in the gospel.

Shepherd, teach the people about the righteousness of God. Reveal the Son of God. I said it before that this is a difficult topic. But we need to find out. When you know the Gospel and reveal it to people, you will have the Word with authority. Because we sometimes preach tradition and just carry it and live by tradition instead of being prophets of God who see God and His throne.

May the Lord help us, may He give us revelation of the mysteries of God, so that we walk with open eyes and open ears.
