Jesus Breaks The Silence & Jesus Before Pilate

                                                             ---
Jesus Breaks the Silence & Jesus Before Pilate. July 3, 2015
 

We sought the Lord about the rumors of terror attacks this weekend and Monday the 7th.  And He’s just not confirming that. So, enjoy your weekend of July the 4th through the 7th this is not the time of trial that is to come.

Carol's observations: Jesus Before Pilate
 

The sense that's been growing in me: if the timeline were to be compared to Jesus going to the cross, we are now at the time that Jesus has 'left' the Garden  - the toil of prayer, the suffering of knowing what is to come, the pain of the anticipation of what must be... And now we've advanced to the "standing in front of Pilate" stage. His face is "set as flint to the things to come". He is resolved that what must happen will and must happen. Now He looks to knowing that both the horror of the Tribulation is upon us, Him and the world...and that the Father will soon open the gates and the 4 horsemen will begin their horrible ride. But, at just the same time, on just the other side of it all, is the Joy and Glory of the Wedding and gathering His Bride to Himself. 

The vision: I was listening to We Will Dance on the Streets of the City by Travis Cottrell and I saw multitudes upon multitudes of people dressed in white, peasant - type costumes. The women in white dresses, not robes –some with the dainty flower embroidery decorations on their bodice. They reminded me of a Scandinavian folk costume. On their heads were wreaths of many colored flowers with ribbons hanging down behind. The men were in white, long sleeved tunic tops with wide, white trousers. All were in bare feet. EVERYONE was dancing together in the streets of New Jerusalem! Some were playing the tambourine, some flutes, some dancing with arms about each other’s shoulders in a line, others watching and clapping along, some dancing in circles together. Jesus was EVERYWHERE! Now with this group, now that, smiling, laughing, singing and dancing along with all. It was a celebration of celebrations!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ezekiel has been in the Garden with Jesus, and so have I for days, and now He has appeared resolute before Pilate.


Matt 27:1-2  Early in the morning, all the chief priests and the elders of the people made their plans how to have Jesus executed. So they bound him, led him away and handed him over to Pilate the governor.

Isaiah 50:6 I offered my back to those who beat me, my cheeks to those who pulled out my beard; I did not hide my face from mocking and spitting. 7 Because the Sovereign Lord helps me, I will not be disgraced. Therefore have I set my face like flint, and I know I will not be put to shame. 8 He who vindicates me is near. Who then will bring charges against me? Let us face each other! Who is my accuser? Let him confront me! 9 It is the Sovereign Lord who helps me. Who will condemn me? They will all wear out like a garment; the moths will eat them up.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jesus Breaks the Silence



Have you forgotten, My Bride, how to hold Me? Do you not care about My suffering right now? Do you not see I am in the midst of the trial? Please forget yourself and stand with Me as I go through My renewed Passion.
 

(Now, I want to say before I share this with you – I have to say that I’ve been pretty selfish in prayer... I really wanted to see and hear Him, and I’ve sat before Him worshipping Him – but not really connecting with where He was at and the suffering that He had right now. Thinking more about the suffering that I’m having with not hearing from Him. So, this is how He began...)

What is coming upon Me now is nothing short of a second crucifixion. And ow I long to see My Bride at the foot of the cross.  Clare...are you listening?

I'm trying to, Lord. (My mind was wandering...Is this really You, Jesus?)

"This is My breakthrough for you, My Love. I have longed to speak to you and hear your sweet voice replying, but much has been intercepted by the enemy."

 

Lord, how can that be?

"It is what it is; faulty discernment. I have been with you this whole time, but the enemy has stolen what I wanted to give you."

 

Lord, why did you allow this? (Just a few minutes ago, through using the Bible Promises, I discerned that I had fallen short in hospitality with our elderly guest up front. I resolved to make it right tomorrow.)

"You already know the answer to that, so let's move on. Suffice it to say you need to be much more careful these days in discernment, both of you - for the enemy will use your techniques against you."

 

So, how do I protect from that?

"Humility and appealing to My Mercy. I only allow what is necessary for the health of your soul. When I need more attention paid to shortcomings and neglects, I allow this. The readings about hospitality and your inspirations for your little elderly guest up front were a key to unlocking this stalemate. Now that you have chosen to care for this very little, irascible soul, I have visited you with My deliverance. Never underestimate the power of charity to a very little one."
 

I am sorry, Lord. I have been avoiding this. But, I thought perhaps it was my husband I was neglecting.

“No, you allowed your flesh to dictate to you. Be on guard, the enemy is cunning and you aren't always paying good attention. He knows that if you neglect someone in your charge, I will not be happy and perhaps will correct you as I have. I wish you would care for her out of the love in your heart, and not fear. But, I will use whatever works for the good of your soul."
 

I deserve this, Lord, I’m so sorry. And I do feel love for her –it is my flesh, You’re right. But, thank You for
delivering me. I always feel better when I go out of my way for her.

"Let Me welcome you back into My arms and fellowship. I have missed you,  Clare."
 


(I was crying at this point...I mean, who wouldn’t?)

 

"I know, I have heard the longing of your heart, and it pained Me. Yet I knew this was a lesson you had to grasp. Please don’t let Me down, nor your guard down. When you got Enemies in the Bible Promises book, that should have been a clear signal to you that this was not My doing-there was interference."
 


Lord, You know it was, but I also know the enemy does nothing without Your permission.

"Well, tonight you hit on it."

 

Ezekiel piped in from the other room, "The gate of charity being abandoned, the devils came and feasted." That’s from the ancient Desert Fathers’  writings.

Well, I thought perhaps you were allowing this as a fast offering, too.

"I always make the ultimate use of every suffering and inconvenience in your life. Typically, part goes to correction and part goes in the offering...that is, Simon's offering. In these times, your offerings evaporate like the mist the moment they are made. Such is the nature of the demands of Grace.
 


"Listen, My Dove. I am here now. I have hidden you in My Heart where no evil can penetrate. I have washed you and dressed you in fine linen-you are clean before Me. Those who have attacked you, I have visited with correction. I desire peace and concord in My Body. I hate dissembling and jealousy. I will visit all according to what they have sown.
 


“My Brides, please do not force Me to visit you with judgment.
 

"In all things I wish for My chosen vessels to respond to My voice in whomever I send. Downgrading others is a terrible sin in the Body and it hurts those who do it more than they recognize. I visit them with trials and remove My hedge of protection. I wish to restore them!  Don't harden your hearts against one another. Rather, in all humility embrace the words I speak through each and every one when you discern. Do not reject My vessels. They’ve been sent to bless you.

 

"And you, on your part, My Bride, continue to do violence to the flesh that wishes to respond in an unseemly way. Bless them who persecute you, and if your blessing is rejected, it will return to you multiplied. I have need of prayers for these who oppose Me. I ask of all on your channel:  pray for your enemies. They are in danger of being left behind because of their bitter, jealous spirits. I have no desire to see them suffer in this way, so I ask you-forgive them and pray for them.
 

"This is all for now, My Darling Bride. I am so happy to hear your heart responding to Me. I am so happy you know that I am truly with you and will never depart from you, but hide Myself for only a moment to correct your sins. In Truth, I can't wait for such a trial as this to be over. Oh, how I love you!
 


"And, as for you all, My Brides-you already know My approach is at the door. Continue in patience and serving Me. Let me find you all busy about My business when that fateful moment comes. Let Me see you going to bed exhausted from serving and interceding. This will be highly pleasing to Me, as the rest of the world sleeps and has no idea what has come upon them."
