Full Extension

Next Level…

Object lesson…

Let’s go up higher.

Let’s take the high ground.

Welcome to the next level.

Did you feel the shaking.

I was cracking up.

I was breaking through.

I was shaking things up.

Did you feel it my son?

I still have the tremors Dad.

Flashbacks, intense flashbacks, flashes of my glory.

Glimpses of my glory.

Yes just glimpses of my glory.

Standing in the midst, standing in the midst of the desolate desert. Standing your ground until it becomes your ground. In a moment in an instant the lush green pasture appears, and extends all around as far as your eye can see.

Caught where the waves and billows roll, wave upon wave, wave upon wave. Then in a moment, in an instant I caught you. Then you walked with me upon the edge, up the wave, for you caught that which had caught you.

You enable me to make progress on the edge, on the dangerous place, on the edge of destruction accelerated progress.

Pressing on, pushing against the boundary, extending the boundary, shifting the boundary. Chained to the boundary, wrapped around the pillars of opposition.

Such power, intense power, dominating power, divine power, you still feel it now don’t you!

What is it you see?

My hand resting upon the boundary, on the pillar, on the wall, trembling with power. Agitation, intense agitation. The tremor that cannot be stopped, that shakes the foundation of the enemies temple.

Why so agitated?

You know the answer Lord.

Have I not called you to disturb, to cause a disturbance, to create a ripple. Yes that is the word that still echos in your heart and mind – RIPPLE.

For the melody of the stream shall have a crescendo.

It is time to make waves.

It is time for the breaking.

It is time for the shaking.

Whether on land or upon the sea, there shall be great agitation. Wave upon wave of change. Great shall be the quaking of your enemy. For my word has gone out.

For as you have spoken my word, all shall say “my word!”

For there shall be great un expectation. For I shall do the opposite of what you expected.

You shall look for the old pattern and not be able to find it.

You shall go to step in that direction and yet not find that step.

Precept by precept, line by line. Let’s go back to the start.

Let’s start again.

Let’s go back to Galilee.

For I am bringing victory to the place of defeat.

Look out, look out, say “LOOK OUT”, just look out.

I know what you are thinking my son…

I want to say look out for disaster, yet you want me to say “Look out” for blessing.

Have I not given you the sight of Elijah?

Have I not given you insight?

Have I not given you foresight?

Did we not beat the enemy around the head with my word, my vision, my remembrance of the future?

Yes Lord it was a great battle, like nothing before. Like a great battle between heaven and earth. The snapshot of the earthly battle, then a vision of what you had shown me, just taken up a level. Such great power. Such great power. So powerful.

For that which I have shown you will come to pass.

Just tell them how it shall be. Just show them the door.

It is time to go to another level.

What does another level feel like?

I can feel the trembling, the great trembling, the immense trembling, the intense trembling, the unstoppable trembling. Such great power. My whole body shakes!

Was this not foretold?

Was this not always my plan?

Did I not say “this is not a fair fight?”

What do you think divine strength looks like?

Thanks for giving me a glimpse, thanks for the feeling, thanks for the experience, thanks for coming over, thanks for the power to overcome.

“We are standing on holy ground…”

Have I not declared this ground to be holy? Have I not set apart this ground for my purposes?

You went looking for help from a person of standing, from a person of high standing, expecting more, expecting change, expecting accountability, after all he was the change expert.

Yet you left without, you where left without, you felt the absence of power, the absence of authority, the absence of knowledge.

It was like Saul going looking for Samuel, yet your seer could not see a way forward.

Was this not by design?

For why does the one with the sight of Elijah need the insight of another?

You meant it for the purpose of contrast Lord. For what he said would happen, was the opposite of what you said would happen.

Yes my son, for I wanted you to show them the door!

Now show them the path.

Did you not pray in agreement with me for the turn around?

Did you not pray in agreement with me for their eyes to be opened?

Why so surprised that this then was the result?

Have I not given you the power!

Welcome to the next level!

Did I not say I would intervene?

For when you could not help yourself, I showed up, I literally showed up.

There you found yourself, slamming the table, again and again, again and again with such power and frustration and determination. Looking for impact, looking for impact. And what did you find?

The fulfilment of the prophecy. The standing at the alter, bashing the arrow on the stage, again and again, again and again, again and again, over and over, more and more, expecting more and more.

So why surprised that you now have more?

Did I not say in this season to build an extension?

Isaiah 54:1-3 “Sing, O childless woman, you who have never given birth! Break into loud and joyful song, O Jerusalem, you who have never been in labor. For the desolate woman now has more children than the woman who lives with her husband,”says the Lord. “Enlarge your house; build an addition. Spread out your home, and spare no expense! For you will soon be bursting at the seams. Your descendants will occupy other nations and resettle the ruined cities.

You added a shelter for the dream machine, and yet what I gave you was too big to be covered by it. You did what I asked, and yet you find yourself extended.

Yes Lord overextended, over being extended, beyond extension.

Yet now I want you to extend your hand, and now extend their thinking, extend the boundary, enlarge the boundary, extend the perimeter.

For I am going to perform my word.

Just as you demonstrated it. Just as you said – “you go to build it here, and then I say to you, no push it out, build it further out, then again and again, until you find yourself beyond limitation.”

Micah 7:7-11 But as for me, I will look to the Lord and confident in Him I will keep watch; I will wait with hope and expectancy for the God of my salvation; my God will hear me. Rejoice not against me, O my enemy! When I fall, I shall arise; when I sit in darkness, the Lord shall be a light to me. I will bear the indignation of the Lord because I have sinned against Him, until He pleads my cause and executes judgment for me. He will bring me forth to the light, and I shall behold His righteous deliverance. Then my enemy will see it, and shame will cover her who said to me, Where is the Lord your God? My eyes will see my desire upon her; now she will be trodden down as the mire of the streets. In the day that your walls are to be built a day for building, in that day shall the boundary of Israel be far extended and the decree against her be far removed.

You feel it now don’t you.

Nevertheless at your word I will. Nevertheless at your word I will lay down the net. Luke 5:4-7 When He had stopped speaking, He said to Simon (Peter), Put out into the deep water, and lower your nets for a haul. And Simon (Peter) answered, Master, we toiled all night exhaustingly and caught nothing in our nets. Buton the ground of Your word, I will lower the nets again. And when they had done this, they caught a great number of fish; and as their nets were at the point of breaking, They signaled to their partners in the other boat to come and take hold with them. And they came and filled both the boats, so that they began to sink.
