The Lord's Kiss to the Church.  

by David Rosen

Dear Saints,

I believe we are in a great corridor of transition. I feel many are being called to leave what has been and what is and w alk forward towards what will be in this season. It feels like the Lord will not let us take our old toys into this new day. For me personally this means a sorting out of the old thing that might have at one time served me well in the past but seem to be outdated and unusable today.

I do believe that this sorting out or alignment of heart can not be accomplished on our own. I believe that this kiros time of Gods awakening kiss to the bride marks the most incredible call to deep intimacy with God and an extended dialogue concerning the secrets of His heart. Because of this I believe many in the body of Christ will have a Lazarus arising experience. Jesus waitedtill Lazarus was in the tomb which really became a womb of transition into Lazarus destiny.

Lazarus story in the Bible is a picture and prophetic drama of Gods manifold wisdom and conquering love in bringing a son into greater fullness and destiny on the earth.

It’s also amazing that He demands that we not just align with heaven but also with one another on this journey. Jesus told the disciples that they must help Lazarus in this awakening process and take his grave clothes off. I believe also during this time that many will be given a love for Gods church like never before. All the past wounds and hurts and misunderstanding will be swallowed up in the very wide river of Gods healing Love. Many will be re-mantled w ith the substance of heaven. I believe this will bring about a few things in the lives of His sons and daughters.

A new bread of shepherds will be seen moving in extraordinary realms of Gods love and care for the Church the lamb’s bride. Many more fathers and mothers of faith will also be commissioned to serve His church.

New levels of intercessors carrying the heartbeat of God and greater levels of confidence and authority in the Lords ability to heal the land.

A new level and depth of prophetic ministry that goes way past giving a word but reflects the word in the outworking of a life given over to God.

A new level of master minstrels and psalmists that will bring the climate of heaven to individuals, towns cities and regions.

New levels of market place ministers caring the heartbeat of the Father to influence cultures in neighborhoods and nations. I believe whole floors in businesses will be given over to prayer and worship to effect our inner cities.

New levels of kingdom innovation as the Lord pours out radical expressions of Himself and His Kingdom in the most unlikely places and people.

New levels of the healing ministry of Jesus working in ordinary people

I believe the apostolic ministry will be undergoing a great inspection process from heaven.

I see many being led down stairs into the basement to dialogue with the Lord over the blueprints and specs of His kingdom foundation.

 

In the process of walking through this corridor of transition I feel like my prayers right now are as follows:

Lord let me trust you in the process

Let me trust you even though I can’t see or understand how this fully works.

Let me trust you in my blindness of the moment.

Let me trust you in the death process of the old things in my life even if I begin to feel the pain.

Jesus Speaks in John 12:24

Verily, verily, I say unto you, except a grain of wheat fall into

the earth and die, it abideth by itself alone; but if it die, it

beareth much fruit.

So saints lets actively pursue the Lord together during this time and fully trust Him to bring us out of the womb of this new season. Let’s position our lips to receive this kiss from heaven. As I am writing this I am thinking of the Godfather movies and remembering that a kiss on the lips of the Godfather was a kiss of death that meant your days were numbered. When our Lord kisses us, the death that He brings is a death to all those things that hinder an awakened heart and the destiny of God in our lives. It is a kiss that carries the resurrection power of the kingdom.

So let’s pucker up and get ready.
