Wildflowers appeared in less than 2 weeks. I'd scattered seeds 2 years ago maybe 3, and nothing appeared. Coming back from a trip I was so uplifted when I walked out into this. Yeshua says "Let not your hearts be troubled..." I remind myself of His assurance, how all that is written must be fulfilled and it's another Exodus , this time on a world wide scale. The Kingdom of Heaven is within I remind myself too and friendship with the world is enmity with God. God is love. Love of the things of this world, lust of the eyes, lust of the flesh and pride of life can't be reconciled in anyway to a life under the perfect law of liberty where the Holy Spirit, His Ruach Ha'Kodesh reigns and guides and leads. The current exodus is dying to self and the carnal, and accepting our own works profit nothing. It's a work of God within our heart, for all who call upon the name of the Lord Yeshua Ha'Mashiac.
"The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance" 2 Peter 3:9
All reins of the heart leading to idolatry are to be cut, and every man-made system brought to nought. Through the world's lens the world appears to be cracking up, but through the lens of the Ruach Ha'Kodesh the unseen and eternal is. Yeshua tells us to watch, to not be deceived by false messiahs, and to guard our hearts. His sheep hear His voice and His Ruach Ha'Kodesh, the Holy Spirit, the compass within, is guiding us to hear more of His voice over the noise and distraction of the world.
The end of the age is not the end of the world but the beginning of the promised era where every knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess Yeshua Ha'Mashiac is Lord. The wildflowers remind me of the beauty that is unfolding beyond the veil. "Suddenly" , or "In the blink of an eye" , assures us that the mystery of time , of growth and change are God's gifts, to keep us safe in proper relationship with our Creator, not needing to know everything but holding a sense of awe at His sovereignty and majesty. It's hope and His revelation blesses as it means His children will endure throughout to the end, preserved blameless in Christ Yeshua His son, proving His perfect will.
"See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaketh from heaven:Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven.And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain" Hebrews 12:25-27
This time in history is that season where all is being shaken. I confess i've been reacting in fear somedays when distracted by the things of this world and this sometimes shows in my tone. And more than ever i'm having to work at examining where i'm at in the faith. God promises all things work together for good for those who love Him and are called according to His purpose. It helps to know that Daniel prophesied about these days and the revelation he received is that many are being purified and tried and made white. It hurts, but the Lord chastens us because He loves us. This promise keeps me hopeful.
