Standing on the Threshold

I saw, as it were a man, that appeared as a knight before me. He was riding a beautiful white steed. I saw that it was not a place that I had visited before, for they were walking on streets of gold. There were people standing, watching for His mighty steed to approach. His hair was just like wool with the look of a King. As He drew closer, we all fell down on our knees and worshiped Him. This was like no other vision or dream that I have had before. This time when I woke up I was lying on the floor. There were chariots that followed, twelve to be exact. They were covered in silver and gold with signs up on their back. In the center of the sign there were blood red words that would take your breath away. You could not help but to cry, but I had to see what they had to say. I continued to wipe the tears away. The words spoke with sternness and with love. I Am coming! That’s all the words would say. But as I stopped and thought awhile I knew just what they meant. We are playing with a time that is already spent. Today is the day! We are not promised tomorrow. I walked around in a daze as the seconds turned to hours; yet the hours, fell like seconds and still there was this sense of Gods power. There were people everywhere, no sickness or disease. I asked a fellow on my right to help me if he pleased. "Of course I will help you brother," he said, "Everyone should be alright just being in this place." "No," I said, "You don’t understand, where I come from we hear about all these wonderful things. That someday there will be no hurt or pain and that we will sail on hallowed wings. But yet with all the things we hear, people still suffer everyday. There’s hurt and pain, heart aches and it happens just that way." "You see," he said as he held my hand, "Gods promises, they are true! But when they start to work is when they start to work in you. Its when the Body, that is the church, turns itself around. When you pick up the Word of God and can’t hardly lay it down. When everyone worships in spirit and in truth. That’s when Gods promises will start to work through you." Many have been found thinking about what the church can do. Don’t you know there is no church if it doesn’t live in you. You are the Body, the Temple of the Living God. Don’t listen to the lies that tell you that your not. Realize this is the truth and that is when the promises start. You are the bride to the King of Kings, love him with all your heart. You and all the sisters and brothers are the airs to His throne! Stop looking in earthly places, realize this is home. Worship not the building but God that lives in you. And all of the promises of God will come to live were they belong, in you. (Jesus! is the promise!) I have spent countless hours crying on my knees for all the brothers and sisters in this world. I feel their hurt and pain, it wakes me up in the middle of the night, I cry even more. And all of the time aware of the promises of God.
