When we see the ark of the covenant in heaven, we see God delivering on His word. He promised to write His law in the hearts of His people, and as history concludes, the Israel of faith is now carrying the ark with them to the battle in the time ahead, being protected on a troubled earth.
The ark of the covenant began to be revealed with the proclamation of God the Father through the Hunga Tonga volcanic eruption. Then commenced loud thundering and lightning as the voice of God rolled through the earth, one line—one lesson—at a time. Soon, He concluded His utterance as the ark of the covenant was completely revealed, and the thunder was heard that articulated the midnight hour. Thus is the power received of which we are to be witnesses to the world:
And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power. But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.
As we come to that hour, the birth pangs of the church are increasing in intensity. But like when God promised Abraham a child in his old age, He gave an appointed time to look forward to, when the pledged son would be given, so it is today. Jesus will come at the appointed time according to His covenant with Abraham. Will the children of Abraham laugh at the impossibility, or turn to the faith of the fathers? God sent “Elijah” to turn the fathers to the children, giving time for the impossible to be accomplished in them.
Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord: And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse. (Malachi 4:5-6)
May the Holy Spirit lead you to look up to all truth and discern the word of God from the heavenly canvas that teaches us about the last rapid movements.
The Lord gives prophecy for a reason, and in this series, we begin to better understand God’s purposes. When we learn that the Lord is not limited to our finite concepts, but prophecy can fulfill in multiple ways, all working together to paint a complete picture, then we can make progress in understanding the depth and significance of His prophecies.
In The Threefold Key of Testimony, we delve into the relationship between Christ and His two witnesses in the setting of Daniel’s prophecy of the seventy weeks. The heavens show a cross—a burden for Jesus’ disciples to bear as He did—yet by that cross, the Second Coming is brought into focus. Have you borne your cross?
Then Jesus called the crowd, along with his disciples, and said to them, “If anyone wants to become my follower, he must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me. (Mark 8:34)
We see in shadows, but soon we shall see face to face. May you stand strong in the Lord as a witness to what He has done in you, being confident that He will bring it to completion. You may give the balm of your witness to the Lord’s work in saving you from sin, and that balm will serve to heal many others. Testify for the Rock, upon whom you firmly stand in these unstable times.
