JESUS, My KING

I've tried writing this post a few times. And it's not flowing and I realized it's because I was dancing around saying what I really think and feel.

I feel sad.

Because all my life I believed that the Prophet was a "prophet, seer, and revelator." I believed the 12 Apostles were too. I always sustained them "in the hope" that they would see, that they would prophesy, that they would reveal. Gosh...the dam of my tightly held emotions broke and tears are gushing now. My heart longs for this. For more of Jesus. More of His Wonder and Love and Passion filling the souls of humankind. I want to gather with people that can't help but shout His name because it's the only word that can come close to capturing the words of their soul.

JESUS.....JESUS!!!!! 

The scriptures that I love that are filled with bold prophesies of Christ by ancient prophets who knew Him and conversed with Him. With each passing General Conference I get sad. I used to be sad that they didn't prophesy, see, or reveal. Now I am sad because when I point out this monstrous elephant in the room to those I care for I discover time and again: no.one.cares.

Isn't everyone on fire about Jesus? I sat in those pews for decades assuming we all had the same passion for Christ...for Him to literally speak our name and claim us as His own. 

So that's it. That's the source of my greatest sorrow. That the members aren't looking for a prophet to prophesy or a seer to see, or a revelator to reveal. Church is something you go to and callings are something you fulfill and lessons are something you listen to and sacrament meeting is something you don't miss so you don't end up in one of the lower kingdoms.

Jesus....Jesus....I'm calling out to you today with lots of tears. Awake and Arise thy Watchmen. Let them call out the voice of warning from their towers and not allow the hedge to be broken down.

And when I cry out to you in my closet for more...more people to awake and arise You say to me, "Those who seek Me with all their Hearts shall find Me."

You are GOOD. You are a GOOD FATHER! And I desire You and only You. And I desire for more of You. And I desire for more people to desire You and only You. That You will be enough. You will be their Shield, their Protector, their Breath, their Sustinance. You are the Holy One of Israel. You are the Good Father. The Prince of Peace. The Mighty Lion of Judah and the Lamb who was slain. You alone are worthy of praise. You alone are King. There is none beside you. None are found Worthy but You! King! Messiah! The Holy of Holies in the Temple of my heart. Let your children desire You. The real You. You are HOLY. And GOOD. And I will worship You all the days of my life. 

Jesus commanded those at Bountiful to study the words of Isaiah. Isaiah saw our day and prophesied that we would, "...say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Prophesy not unto us right things, speak unto us smooth things, prophesy deceits." (Isaiah 30:10)

2 Timothy 4:3-4

For the time will come when men will not tolerate sound doctrine, but with itching ears they will gather around themselves teachers to suit their own desires. So they will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.

2 Thessalonians 2:11

And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie.

A myth is defined as "a traditional story, especially one concerning the early history of a people or a widely held but false belief or idea."

Where are you - Jesus lovers? Where are the people that get nauseous at any adoration directed to anyone or anything other than He who is King? Where are the prophets that prophesy? Where are those that See and tell us what they have Seen, and reveal those things which are unknown except to God?

Come Lord Jesus, spare your vineyard a little longer for the fruit to ripen and may the fruit be that which You can store up unto yourself. Purify me and help me be worthy of all of You.

This Is A Move

And if you're going to listen to this song...you gotta, at some point, stand up - raise your hands and sing this to Him...pointing to Him. 

JESUS!!!
