Message for July 2008 by David Nelson

Message for July 2008  by David Nelson

I would like to talk with you all heart to heart. There is a message in me that has been formulating and growing in my heart since 1996.

I have a chance with this website to speak a message to all the nations of the world and especially the Church for anyone that might hear. We must hear from God! We might hear Him in a sermon or a book or the Bible itself but then again we might not hear Him in sermons or books or even if the Bible is read if it is the letter only and not Spirit and life. We must ask, “Where is the Lord!” “I must hear Him!”

Now, you may say, of course we hear Him all the time. No, I really mean, “I must hear Him and know it is Him, nothing else will do, and I will know when He speaks to me.”

Many people in the Bible heard from God very clearly and it was recorded what He said to them. They, or most of them, are in heaven now and it is our time to hear from God. The Lord wants to speak so clear and strong to each of us (more than ever before) but we must want to hear Him and nothing else will do. He is even now honing your desire to hear purely from Him and give you treasures if you will sincerely say, “Where is the Lord, I must hear Him alone?” “In these last days I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh and they will see visions, dreams and hear and receive prophecies (from Me).” But we must hear His call to draw closer to Him, be serious about it, seek Him with serious intent, in hopes that we find Him. Of course, He doesn’t want only to speak to us, as wonderful as that is, but He wants to have an intimate relationship with us and to walk with Him as Enoch, Moses or Paul did.

So, we all know that the Lord is wanting us to draw near to Him as He is desiring to draw near to each of us. What will be the result is our true spiritual gifts coming forth, a new love for God, a newly appreciated love for others growing, and the supreme treasure of knowing Him as never before. To get this, as you probably have already found, is quite an adventure, with many risks, many sacrifices, much suffering, rejections by others, misunderstandings by others, a pioneer mentality, a wilderness walk alone in search of Him. If you don’t like these last things mentioned please be assured they are the lot of many who have walked before you and for many who are seeking Him now. There are many Scriptures to verify that this truly is the lot of all those who seek Him diligently and who find Him.

This new fire that will burn in your heart cost something but you will gain a great and rich treasure that will grow in you as you have entered in to what the Lord is calling you to. Sometimes you will feel so alone and even at times abandoned by the Lord but it is all part of the personal walk with Him that will produce rich fruit (eventually). And remember, have and are now going through the same things.

If this was all I had to say we could rest (or learn to rest) in our new adventure on this path that leads to eternal life as we learn to walk with Him. But this is not all. My message to the world in this hour is also that we must learn to come together corporately and become the Bride and the Church that the Lord is longing for. What must happen is we must not continue to walk alone (just me and God) but connect with others who are being melted and forged with kindred spirits to our own. This will take a supernatural love to walk with others, get to know others, meet with others, and maybe even work with others. Slowly but surely (and sometimes suddenly) the Lord is connecting people like living stone to living stone, building us together into a temple that He can inhabit. How will all this unfold? Is it happening now?

It might be that you just meet one person who seems to have the same heart as you and you will begin to share with each other. Then Satan could work to keep you apart or break up your relationship. He has many tricks. I wrote two books titled “Without Love We Are Nothing” and “The Knitting of our Hearts” which I think captures some of the ideas of what real love for one another will be like and what it will take to keep loving each other when Satan attacks. So, if there comes a break in these new relationships either the Lord will teach us how to heal them or they were not meant to be at this time. But people who are learning to walk with Him will eventually come together to share their lives with one another and meet together with the Lord in their midst.

This is my dream. Not just me walking close to the Lord, which of course is not always easy and is sometimes a lonely trek (although it is a glorious and rich treasure), but the Lord wants His beautiful children to get to know each other. He will be even more glorified in this. He wants them to come together in gatherings where their gifts can shine to one another, where the Lord’s presence is in our midst, where He can speak to us directly, kind of like a party with precious brothers and sisters getting to know each other and the Lord there manifesting Himself through us! He will be there, He will be seen, and we will be there with each other, with love for Him and each other growing way beyond anything we have ever tasted before. He is giving us glimpses of what is to be, and really they are tastes of heaven, and we are getting more and more hungry for these things and seeing what He wants more and more clearly.

I know there are many out there who see these things too because this is where God is going and what He wants us to see. Bless you all my brothers and sisters who I have never met face to face. The Lord is building His Church. He will do it. And just like at creation when He looked at what He had made (light, lands and seas, plants and animals, and man and woman), “Then God saw everything that He had made, and indeed it was very good,” He is also making a Church and a Bride for Himself that will be very good.

I give you this message for July 2008. I have many ideas as to how these things can come to be. Please let me know your ideas. This is my heart to you and I believe this is in the Lord’s heart also. I believe it is in many of your hearts too. Bless you my brothers and sisters!
