Good day people this is a fun time of the year. Christmas is rapidly approaching and then the new year. Until then we have today and another word from our Lord and Savior. Yesterday while enjoying worship the Holy Spirit and our Lord started telling me something interesting. It started with the words “hammer and sickle.” My first thought was “what does communism have to do with anything?” Then came the rest of their word. It goes like this. “I am from everlasting to everlasting. I have been, I am and always will be there.Yet you wonder and doubt. Why go there? I say this as my house is in need of work. So, I lay before thee a hammer and sickle. To build and repair. Use my hammer on that which is both physical and spiritual. Build and destroy, repair and demolish. Take my sickle reap. Reap for the harvest is there. Use my sickle to remove that which has grown and does not belong. Cleansing needs to take place before the repairs. The coming year offers new rewards. Be ready. Put yourself in a place to receive these. I the Lord have been, always will be and will forever more be there,”

This prophecy starts out with the constant of our Lord. He doesn’t change and isn’t going anywhere. In the book of Malachi it states the “I the Lord do not change.” Its His steadfastness that we need. From there we read about some of the body having doubts about God. With the way some churches and people are, its no wonder why they feel this way. Nothing new happens in their lives. The church does the same thing time after time with no change. The buildings are in disrepair. Looking like worn out structures and no one to care for them. This is a shame. At this point our Lord gives us the way to make changes. He is giving us a hammer and sickle to use. Nothing to do with other beliefs or political stances. These are tools He wants us to use and to use them properly. One of the proper ways is to use them for cleansing. Our Lord said to demolish, remove and cleanse. Demolish walls and barriers we have built up to insulate ourselves from people and from getting hurt. These walls etc. are things we have built because of a need for comfort. Even worshiping them to a degree. Remember this. Our God is a jealous God. We are to have no other gods before thee. They must come down.

He also told us to remove. Use the sickle to get rid of that which doesn’t belong. I had a thought of using the sickle to remove the weeds and brush that are in the way. Then we will be able to clearly see the harvest. yes there will be the weeds in the harvest. But those can be taken out after the harvest. This cleansing needs to happen. It is stated in His word that He will start with His house first. So, cleansing is a must.

Now remember that Jesus was the son of a carpenter. Hammers are used to build. Why not build on the “Rock” the “sure foundation.” Repair that which is need of repair. Build new after that A great place to begin at is in worship. Nothing can compare to spending time with Him in worship. Read and study his word to get a better understanding of who He is. A better understanding of what we are to do for Him. We need to all get in a better place with Him. After this we will be better prepared to go out into the harvest and reap for Him. Sharing the good news to a people in need. Its time to stop putting this off and start moving forward. For He is always with us. That will not change.

Please share this with others. There are more of us who need to hear this and be encouraged.

Be blessed, Ken
