Spread out.

First the one.

Second the two.

Third the three.

Then the one becomes the four.

The two becomes the eight.

The three becomes the twelve.

For from the one shall come the many.

Spread from beneath then manifest above.

This is what growth looks like.

Come with me for a walk amongst the rubble.

For this is what breakthrough looks like.

For you see is broken pieces, yet I see breakthrough.

For I have given you access.

For I have broken that which stood in your way.

Here take my hand, I’ll show you the way through.

Duck and weave, step up, step down, side to side, here not there.

For I will show you the way.

Some stones are for stepping on, some are best side stepped.

Yet in a moment, in an instant you shall be through.

Joshua 6:20-21 So the people shouted, and the trumpets were blown. When the people heard the sound of the trumpet, they raised a great shout, and Jericho’s wall fell down in its place, so that the Israelites went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city. Then they utterly destroyed all that was in the city, both man and woman, young and old, ox, sheep, and donkey, with the edge of the sword.

You feel the tension.

You feel the tension.

You feel the stretch.

Pulling harder and harder.

With more and more power you pull against that which pulls against you.

Like a drum, you pull and stretch with all your might.

For you know there is great power in great tension.

For there is great, the greatest, the loudest sound, that comes from the place of the greatest tension.

For I shall beat this drum over and over.

Yet on the one side the lace, the lace work holds it all together.

Yet on the other there is nothing to hold the tension.

Let’s come at it from the other side.

For I am pulling all things together.

For I am drawing all things to myself.

“Let’s draw so close to him”

Let the lace do its work. One thread at a time, one hole filled then another.

Pulling one together with the next.

In a moment it shall be complete.

You shall see the point of the tension.

The point of the stretch.

The strength of that which holds it all together.
