New Delivery

Delivery

Pause and think calmly.

In the stillness…

In the quietness…

I am here.

In the barren place…

In the desert place…

In the desolate place…

In the dull place.

In the place without colour.

I am here.

In the place of disquiet.

In the place of the raging.

In the place of the contest.

In the place of the conflict.

In the place of the drama.

I am here

In the place of the wrestling.

The place of words.

The place of strong words.

The place of harsh words.

The place of manipulation.

The place of manoeuvring.

The place of posturing.

The place without position.

The place without direction.

The place of torment.

The place of unkindness.

The place of drought.

The place of hurt.

The place of distress.

The place without.

The place without.

The place without.

I am here

For my presence is not absent.

For my fullness is beyond.

My fullness lies beyond.

Beyond your expectation.

Beyond your sight.

For you cannot see beyond your sight.

For I am beyond your vision.

I rest at the point.

I rest beyond your point.

I inhabit the place beyond your point.

For my way is so much higher.

For my glory rises.

For my glory does not rest below, it rises above.

For my glory is not hidden.

My glory shines so brightly.

Yet you possess my fullness.

You possess my capacity.

You express my desire.

For the desolate place shall be full.

For so many describe the place of lack, want to outline its features, describe its flaws, its imperfections, all that it lacks.

Yet they are missing the point.

ARE YOU NOT MY POINT!

For I have given you and opportunity to express my desire.

Can these dead bones live?

Can the desolate place be full?

You sit there wondering how to answer me?

You wrestle with the thought, how best to express my desire.

Yet you already know the answer.

For the broken pieces are so valuable to me.

The discards, the rejects, the off cuts, the exiles, the downtrodden, the outcast, the persecuted, the poor and needy, are my chosen.

My selection criteria is so different from the standard.

Have I not chosen you, have I not appointed you, have I not called you!?

You so want to ask everyone for direction, to include them in the process, in the outcome.

Yet you possess my direction, you know where we are going.

You are the one with the map.

You are the one I have chosen to lead.

For you are no longer a follower, but the leader.

I have put you in charge.

Show them the way.

You have my support.

My pre-approval.

Don’t hold back, you won’t be embarrassed.

This time it will be different, I promise.

This time is the anointed time, the appointed time, the opportune time.

For you possess my plan.

For they shall be led by you.

Speak all that I have commanded you to say.

For I have put my words upon your lips.

I have given you authority to pull up, and to plant, to overthrow and to tear down.

It shall be as you say!

Describe it for me, for you have my endorsement.

Write upon the parchment, and I’ll sign it off.

It is time for a re write.

It is time for a reset.

It is time for the harvest.

It is time for a new building.

It is time for rest.

It is time for restoration.

Leviticus 26:9-13 For I will be leaning toward you with favor and regard for you, rendering you fruitful, multiplying you, and establishing and ratifying My covenant with you. And you shall eat the [abundant] old store of produce long kept, and clear out the old [to make room] for the new. I will set My dwelling in and among you, and My soul shall not despise or reject or separate itself from you. And I will walk in and with and among you and will be your God, and you shall be My people. I am the Lord your God, Who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, that you should no more be slaves; and I have broken the bars of your yoke and made you walk erect [as free men].

It is the time of replenishment.

The re stocking.

For you have cleared out the the old, to make way for the new.

HERE COMES THE NEW!

More than you can imagine.

More than you expect.

So much more that you expect.

Gather up the fragments.

Yet now gather up that which is new.

Take hold of that which is new.

For I am giving you something new.

Here take that which new.

Brightly shining in the sun.

Brand new.

Glistening in the light.

Gleaming in the light.

Bathed in the light of the sun.

A new dawn.

A new era.

A new decade.

A new delivery.

A new delivery.

A new delivery.

A new delivery.

The new delivered.

A new delivery.

The delivery of the new.

The newly delivered.

Genesis 18:14 Is anything too hard or too wonderful for the Lord? At the appointed time, when the season [for her delivery] comes around, I will return to you and Sarah shall have borne a son.

A new deliverance.

A new level of deliverance.

For you shall deliver my people from bondage, from slavery, from restraint, from their restraints, from constraint, from containment, from all confinement.
