CLEFTED IN THE ROCKS - Breaking Needs Series 006
Read Exodus 33:18-23
Exodus 33:22-23, KJV
"22 And it shall come to pass, while my glory passeth by, that I will put thee in a clift of the rock, and will cover thee with my hand while I pass by 23 And I will take away mine hand, and thou shalt see my back parts: but my face shall not be seen."
God said to me, "apart from the bearing (intervening) work that I do to save your feet from being dashed on a stone, there's another and that one is called "clefting." Who was clefted in the rocks in the Bible? Think quickly and think of Moses. Moses was clefted. Why was Moses clefted? He requested to see God's glory. That's how we must desire knowing more of God until we're totally united with Him and lost in Him. God however replied that no man will see him and yet live. To help Moses to fulfill his desire which is righteous and yet care for Him, God told Him, he'll be clefted so that when He passes, Moses will be privileged seeing His back only. And so, when Jehovah passed, Moses was hidden in the rock and clefted. Or else, the contact with God face to face could have swallowed him up. God therefore used that clefting to hide and keep him safe from injury.
God made it known to me, this way is how I'll save some from disgrace. It's not by bearing up (intervening or interrupting to stop an ongoing process of disgrace) but by clefting, hiding or keeping secured from an impending doom (by not letting them take a step of doom at all). And now, I'm receiving an enlightening on a verse that very much applies. This place says, "the prudent foresees the evil and hide himself but the simple passes on and are punished (Prov. 22:3).
What is consequent if you pass on? You suffer! That's what that place calls "punishment." It may come in any form depending on which rule or law you're breaking and in what field or aspect of life it's being broken. But what did the Bible proffer as the remedy to not being punished? It's foreseeing the consequences of taking a likely step and then refraining from it. This is where divine revelation will be granted you so that you'll see what others do not see and by same be refrained. That "refraining from it" is what is called "clefting, being clefted or hidden." By hiding yourself, that thing will still occur but it can't beat you because you have taken caution by taking shelter. It will just pass you by. Your shelter is that you do not go ahead to strike the iron others are striking. It's that you do not go ahead to invest in the same market others are investing into. You saw that the time is not ripe and so retrace your steps back and so you are saved.
Today, lay your hand on your head. "Receive an impartation of wisdom. When Moses laid hands on Joshua, the latter received his wisdom. Manifest special understanding of time and seasons to know when, where and what. Have cause to see beyond what appears. See dangers as dangers even if they're masked. May you always be clefted and hidden from dangers that could and should be avoided. May you not pass on (take same steps like the simple) and be punished like them. I rid you of all simplicity (foolishness) and have you filled with financial wisdom from above. Any step or decision in business or personal economy etc that you'll take that'll consequent in your being punished won't be allowed you by the Spirit. May the Spirit of God rather strive with you until you let go of what you've planned doing. This way, you'll be clefted: having taken caution and refrained from going ahead.
PRAYER: Lord, cleft me from every financial difficulty. Give me wisdom to hide and not be punished. I foresee the danger.
