God has given me a few recent clues as to what the new “Apostle & Prophet” title might look like walked out. Now, please hear me, nothing is written in stone. The clues are just pointing to a possibility and are sometimes surrounded by assumption.
Just after midnight today, I heard a loud door slam in my sleep. It was such a loud sound in the spiritual realm that it awakened me. I knew it was not a physical door slam because there were not any doors in proximity to me that would have that impact. I asked the Lord, “What was that?” He said it is a spiritual sign that a door is now closed. He went on to say that my ministry focus is no longer to dispute the false doctrines to the local pastors. In fact, He doesn’t want me to watch their online sermons or interact with them. He said that they don’t want to know Him or hear His voice. They have persistently chosen to ignore Him regarding the false doctrines. I asked if I had done something wrong. He said that I had done His will exactly by delivering the warnings and cautions just as He required. He knows that I don’t like to watch while He punishes anyone. So, I’m glad that door is closed.
After the conversation with God, I went back to sleep. Just before waking a second time, I saw a picture of a large wooden wardrobe with double doors and drawers. It was very much like the wardrobe that I bought before my daughter was born. We used it in the nursery to hang her little outfits and to store her baby clothes. When I asked God “What does the wardrobe represent?”, He responded that it signifies my abilities. Without words spoken between us, my mind went to the idea of Him dressing me as His daughter. I didn’t get the idea of this being about spiritual armor but instead about giftings that I would need in this new phase of the journey.
Instead of going to a church service today, God sent me to a local park on the river. I ate breakfast in my car and then took my cell phone down to the waters edge to listen to praise and worship music. I listened to praise music for about an hour. The weather was perfect. All the while I was again hearing an unspoken idea start to immerge. It started out as helping my family learn to have meaningful “church” at home. Other ideas formed but God and I were mostly engaged in worship.
After spending the time in the park, God had me drive to a parking lot at the mall. I parked looking away from everything and pulled out my phone as if I were talking with someone. But in reality I was using it as a cover to allow me to talk aloud to God and have Him answer through my own voice. If any onlookers saw me they would think that I was talking on the phone rather than talking with God in prayer. This is one of my favorite things that God does through me. He speaks His words through my voice. It’s one way to be sure that I’m hearing from God because the devil does not have the power to speak through my own voice.
I asked God what this new season would involve. Remember that this could just be conversation to get me thinking in a direction. It may not actually look anything like what I will describe. It could just be a spiritual vision exercise done to shift my perspective. God said that He hates what the modern church has become. It is used as an excuse to not have day to day, moment by moment interaction with God. God wants me to teach others (maybe via video) how to have their own REAL relationship with Him. If it is via video teaching, the videos could just be short mentoring recordings. I’m not all that enthusiastic about seeing myself on video at this age, but I’m willing if it is what God wants.
That’s all that I know for now. Will write again if I get more pieces to the puzzle.
