True fulfillment has come! The wheel in a wheel is activated for God’s holy remnant for the “end” of man’s age. The order of the sons of God and the adoption of the bride of Christ will be one.
What a glorious time for the true volunteers! Their time has come. He who has pitched His tent in our midst will “circulate” us with His power and glory.
The blessings of “sheep” and the ruins of ” wolves” is one work. Mercy (the support that God lends out of His compassion) will always triumph over judgment (the punishment that God issues forth out of His wrath). His favor, thru our sufferings in the hand of evil, will be revealed, even through our “death on the cross”, even by the glory that is coming down from above.
Pride leads to rebellion; unbelief leads to confusion; lack of devotion leads to defeat and waywardness. God is spirit. His spirit endears only the humble, the truthful and the faithful. “These are the ones God (the Father) seeks to worship Him.” He first seeks us and as a result, those He called and chose will eagerly seek Him. What a love! Indeed it is a divine romance.
The worldly seek after what appeases to their senses; the insincere look after their own interests; the truthful and humble long after the realities and substances of God; the holy and the chosen serve after the ways and righteousnesses of God. His own will love and follow Him at all cost because they know how precious and how worthy He is.
The distinctions of these will become evident more and more in the days to come, as He lays out the table of the marriage feast. Much more so are the consequences.
But what a great news for the remnant! “Fear not, my little (weak and small, without number and without order) flock, for I have overcome the world!” He is our true shepherd of love and strength. Let us take “comfort” (sense of support and confidence) in His rod (dashes the enemy) and His staff (guides us in His love and wisdom).
“You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.”
(Psalm 23:5-6 NIV)
“Hear, daughter of Zion, your redemption draws nigh. The night soon shall pass, the day is come. I will have a bride who is after my own heart. Know that I am the good shepherd. One by one, I will gather you to my bosom and carry you on my chest. Now, come! Come to my Father’s house and live. “
