I heard the Lord say, “Work, for I am with you! Build with Me. My hands on yours, guiding you, directing you. Do not stop. Do not hesitate. Have you not found favor in My sight? I am the One who holds the blueprints of heaven. I have given what is needed into your hands. Build, steadfast and immovable in purpose. Trust Me. Hope in Me. Do not fear, for I Myself am with you.”
The Holy Spirit then highlighted Haggai 2:2-9:
“‘Speak now to Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and to all the remnant of the people, and say, “Who is left among you who saw this house in its former glory? How do you see it now? Is it not as nothing in your eyes? Yet now be strong, O Zerubbabel, declares the Lord. Be strong, O Joshua, son of Jehozadak, the high priest. Be strong, all you people of the land, declares the Lord. Work, for I am with you, declares the Lord of hosts, according to the covenant that I made with you when you came out of Egypt. My Spirit remains in your midst. Fear not. For thus says the Lord of hosts: Yet once more, in a little while, I will shake the heavens and the earth and the sea and the dry land. And I will shake all nations, so that the treasures of all nations shall come in, and I will fill this house with glory, says the Lord of hosts. The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, declares the Lord of hosts. The latter glory of this house shall be greater than the former, says the Lord of hosts. And in this place I will give peace, declares the Lord of hosts.”’”
I have a strong sense that for many in the Body of Christ, there is an apostolic grace being released in this season, a building grace. For those who have heavenly blueprints burning in their hearts, this is a time to move forward, to push into the vision. It is time to trust God for specific instruction, confirmation and provision. As He sanctifies you through this process of bold faith, He is reminding you that He who calls you is faithful, and He Himself will do it (1 Thessalonians 5:24). Trust Him and move forward!
