The Lord is saying. You are my jewel, My precious one. Do not grieve or be afraid and in torment, do you not know that I have overcome all these things that come to disturb. Walk on cheerfully, knowing I am in control and that I am making all things new and restoring that which is lost through your mistakes and others. I am bigger than your failings. Walk on rejoicing.  

 

As you come to him, the living Stone-rejected by men but chosen by God and precious to Him you also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a .........holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

1 Peter 2:4-6

 

 

Another Heavenly encounter!!!
More about the promise of wholeness portrayed in the Rainbow

 

This morning (29th March 10) when I went to the Lord, He was very happy and said He wanted to show me something. He took me in the spirit up the grassy hill where the grass is so lush and beautiful. There were yellow flowers there that were so sweet and the moment was so precious and joyful with Jesus. He told me to look and see what I could see, so I looked over the horizon.. I could see the hills that stretched far over the distance, but He asked again. As I focused my spiritual eyes I could see a closer image, a shadowy image, that became clear to me that it was a man. Jesus told me to ask the man who he was. So I did...and he told me he was Noah and I was so overjoyed because of the revelations of the rainbow that he had shared with me recently that I started to dance.
He told me that there was much excitement and it had caused a quite a stir in the heavenlies with those who had gone before because these heavenly revelations were being shared on the earth.

 

 

Noah wanted me to explain again what I had grasped from the scriptures, so I reiterated to him about the revelations and the scriptures that were opened up to me that day when the Lord took me to see him. I knew he was doing this so I would formulate them, remember them and get them deeper in my heart.

The seven colours of the rainbow associated with the promise in Isaiah 54:9

For this is as the waters of Noah unto me: for as I have sworn that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth; .......

Seven signifies wholeness, completion and perfection. (seven is also the word for oath ... to seven oneself) Imagine when God first gave the rainbow how wonderful to think He 'sevened' Himself and it was shown in seven glorious colours. And as Noah had said we had a greater covenant, because God sevened himself again....

........so have I sworn that I would not be wroth with thee, nor rebuke thee. Isaiah 54:10 For the mountains may depart and the hills be removed, but my steadfast love shall not depart from you, and my COVENANT OF PEACE shall not be removed," says the LORD, who has compassion on you.

 

The covenant of Peace that can't be broken is (Shalom) means wholeness, no deficiency and there in the Hebrew it indicates that when it (the peace) is paid for, it will have been worth it. This was written many hundreds of years before the COVENANT OF PEACE was paid for by Jesus with His Covenantal blood being spilled. Jesus went through the terrible death because of the joy set before Him of buying us back and bringing us into all that He has for us.

It was revealed to me that God CANNOT fail to fulfil His promises because His covenant that cannot be broken.

The next verse In Isaiah 53:11 & 12

I had seen in my spirit...the jewels cut like massive shiny flat paving slabs measuring about 15ft by 7ft, the deepest richest colours. Beautiful deep purple so shiny and translucent and I could see the beauty of each stone deep within it. Its hard to describe .... There was a red one and yellow, violet, green , blue orange... all the colours of the rainbow and each one represented one or even more promises that I could stand or even dance on..... Dance on when I was confident and to weakly try to stand on when I wasn't. I knew these stones were being laid in my heart as God's word and I knew that if I let His word abide in me and if I abode in Him I could ask anything and it would be done for me by my Father in heaven and thus I would bear much fruit. John 15.

After describing to Noah the things I had grasped, he said "Yes but there is more. He told me.... or should I say I experienced the scriptures being opened to me without words. The scriptures came to me. Isaiah 53 "He shall divide the spoils with the strong" and in the New Testament "The violent take the Kingdom by force". I remembered how Smith Wigglesworth had said that we have to violently come against those things that are trying to destroy our peace.

And then I saw it ... The peace that the Lord died to give us...the wholeness ....the Shalom that means nothing missing nothing broken .... it was all ours... wholeness, completion RIGHT NOW... every bit of it paid for by the blood of Jesus and rightfully ours. But we have to police it. To believe it. We have to guard it in our hearts and to violently tell the arguments against the truth that they have to leave. To be forceful and not passive against the symptoms, the lies, the strongholds. We have the power to bring down the strongholds, the structures in our thinking that the devil has set up to undermine the promises. Everything is ours in Christ and we have to fight to believe it. The fight of faith. Jesus said those who overcome will inherit all things.

 

We should fight too for our children's peace, those things that come against their peace we have authority over, and we need not to be passive but claim this ground. We have to rule over the demonic forces that come to steal our children's peace.

Jesus said there was something Noah wanted to give me from himself and the hosts of heaven. In their excitement and love they had prepared a gift and I could sense them looking on in great anticipation about this gift and I knew it was because of the revelation of the rainbow and wholeness. I turned and looked and I saw something in Noah's hand wrapped loosely in white tissue paper. I kept looking at Jesus and looking at Noah and they were smiling and looking at each other in anticipation of me seeing this. It was a massive diamond. I kept looking inside it and the Lord kept telling me to look and see but at first I couldn't make it out, what was in it.. Then I saw that inside the diamond were seven stones of the colours of the rainbow, ruby emerald sapphire amethyst..... I asked if I could have it in a ring and yes I put it on my finger as a reminder of the wholeness that Jesus had promised me. The wholeness that was already mine, that I was to guard in my heart and to extricate the invaders that seek to own my property.
