IT'S A MATTER OF TIME
Psalms 68:2,KJV
"As smoke is driven away, so drive them away: as wax melteth before the fire,so let the wicked perish at the presence of God.
When I said "it's a matter of time", do you know it is indeed. I want to bring to your consciousness the need to be guaranteed and steadfastly assured that what you profess doing is first of all an initiative from the Lord. Why I'm I laying repeated emphasis on this truth?
I'm very sure that tests of life will arise that will prove whether that thing is genuinely from God or not. Both things called into being by God and those self instituted will face this coming challenge. Like the house built on the rock retains its integrity, initiatives from God shall endure while those carved by humans and not directly ordained by God to be shall have the destiny of the house built on sand. The flood will carry it away. It shall no longer be noticed that it once exists. It shall be erased to the ground and disappeared out of observation.
That Bible portion says "as wax melts before fire..." What is wax? Let me give you a quick example? Take your shoe polish as an example. If you bring it near fire, what happens to it? It melts. From its firm position, it dissolves into liquid that could begin to pour off.
Before the fire, wax melts. That is, wax can't continue as wax. It has no endurance to continue as wax. From wax, it becomes another thing. The formation of wax makes it impossible for it to endure fire. Even far away from fire, it melts let alone being brought very near fire. The remedy for wax therefore not to be melted is for it to be prevented from having an encounter with fire. This however is impossible. You can keep hiding your wax initiative and protecting it. Meanwhile, test will expose its origin and content. Life will attract tests and challenges to it.
Anything not called into existence by God will be terrified of being consumed in this life and that fear of its being consumed shall eventually be fulfilled on it.
Take for instance a nylon when brought near fire, it melts away as well. Just like wax, that nylon is melted into a kind of drops of liquid that can solidify again when it cools off. Meanwhile, it will be liquid as long as it remains near the heat or the pressure of fire.
God is saying I should tell you "that there are things that won't maintain their forms as time goes on." Those things shall see and flee! They shall sight from afar and shiver. What are those things? Anything that He doesn't inspire. Things that He doesn't cause to existence. Things His own very breath doesn't give life to. Things the words of His mouth doesn't call to manifestation. These things could be systems/institutions, ideas, slogans, brands etc. As long as they are not divinely implanted things by God in the human mind, they'll one day melt away like wax melts before fire. We shall no longer hear of them surprisingly!
What is God saying? He's saying "you'll just wake up and hear that something has ended it." Something from the blues, from where you least expect, something striking will just force it into extinction.
I have waited on God and I have heard Him speak very clearly that many things shall be tested with fire these last days. Only few will survive. The handiwork of many ministers will be burnt. To escape this, let your initiative and moves be inspired by the Lord. What wins the approval of God and His rewards is what He has called to being and what He tells you to do in a manner He desires it done. Any concept outside this will be counted as dead work. It will attract no reward. It's 100% vain labour.
So, know that whatsoever does not stem from Him can't continue on the long run. Such will fall sick, fall out and eventually fall by the road side. However, if it originates from Him, it will endure from this time forth till evermore.
I therefore prophesy by the anointing of 'continue' with which God has creamed my head that time will not chisel you away. The works of your hands shall endure. It shall persist. It shall not be eroded or washed away. I pray that it shall still be speaking in Jesus' name.
PRAYER: Father of all ages, Ancient One of all centuries,let me outlast time with the works of my hands.
