The Womb of the Morning Vision - 01-19-17


The Womb of the Morning Vision - 01-19-17


In the vision, I am standing next to a fellow brother in Christ, and we are outside standing in the open field looking out at the landscape before us in the pre dawn light. The air is crisp and the grass is heavy with dew, and there is a deep hush everywhere. Then I see the sun begin to rise, and the first rays begin to climb into the sky. We both watch as the light breaks forth and the sun rises above the horizon.
The sun was a color mix of oranges and yellow. It lights up the landscape and everything shines with its light as it reflects itself in the dew. I smile at the early morning sight, but I feel a check from the Holy Spirit within me to wait, so I keep watching. Suddenly, I saw a strange sight. I saw the sun continue to rise and then it split open partway, like a hinge on the top let go and the top part fell open in two parts until it was laying open flat. Kind of like an egg would that was being opened.

Then, I saw a new sun slowly emerge out of the opened halves, and it was absolutely golden, and was so brilliant that you could hardly look at it, and it transformed everything around us with its golden shimmering light. Everything sparkled anew with golden radiance! I looked at my friend, who was standing next to me, and we both smiled and I said, “It’s the Womb of the Morning, and it has finally dawned!”

Then the scriptures came to me:
Psalms 110:3 Your people will offer themselves willingly in the day of Your power, in the beauty of holiness and in holy array out of the womb of the morning; to You [will spring forth] Your young men, who are as the dew.
2 Peter 1:19 And we have the prophetic word [made] firmer still. You will do well to pay close attention to it as to a lamp shining in a dismal (squalid and dark) place, until the day breaks through [the gloom] and the Morning Star rises (comes into being) in your hearts.

“The Greater Shaking and the Glorious Lampstands Vision – 01-17-17”



“The Greater Shaking and the Glorious Lampstands Vision – 01-17-17”



As Patrick and I were sitting in our living room talking today, I saw a vision. I saw the Lord Jesus standing in the midst of the 7 golden candlesticks. He was dressed in white robes with a royal sash and a woven belt. On the belt was hanging a pocket watch. He held a scroll in His hand, and He looked at the scroll as He opened it up. Then He looked down and picked up the pocket watch that hung on His belt and He looked at it and smiled. He then looked at me as I watched and I saw the whole room that He was standing in shake. It looked like an earthquake. The 7 lamps shook, and their flames danced as they shook. The Lord was not moved by the shaking, but continued to stand their unfazed. I watched as the shaking increased. The lamps continued to burn but their flames shook more and soon the flames leaped violently as the shaking increased. At one point I wondered if their flames would go out because the shaking was so violent that I thought the lampstands would fall. The Lord continued to stand among them and His face was resolute. Then I saw an amazing thing happen as the shaking came to a crescendo, the flames began to change on the lamps. The flames changed into huge balls of atomic light, kind of like the transition from a single flame to a lighthouse light would be. The lamps had transformed because of the shaking, and great light now blazed brightly everywhere. Then I saw Jesus smile, and He held out the scroll to me. Then the vision ended.
Revelation 1:10 I was in the Spirit [rapt in His power] on the Lord’s Day, and I heard behind me a great voice like the calling of a war trumpet, 11 Saying, I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last. Write promptly what you see (your vision) in a book and send it to the seven churches which are in Asia—to Ephesus and to Smyrna and to Pergamum and to Thyatira and to Sardis and to Philadelphia and to Laodicea. 12 Then I turned to see [whose was] the voice that was speaking to me, and on turning I saw seven golden lampstands, 13 And in the midst of the lampstands [One] like a Son of Man, clothed with a robe which reached to His feet and with a girdle of gold about His breast. 14 His head and His hair were white like white wool, [as white] as snow, and His eyes [flashed] like a flame of fire. 15 His feet glowed like burnished (bright) bronze as it is refined in a furnace, and His voice was like the sound of many waters. 16 In His right hand He held seven stars, and from His mouth there came forth a sharp two-edged sword, and His face was like the sun shining in full power at midday. 17 When I saw Him, I fell at His feet as if dead. But He laid His right hand on me and said, Do not be afraid! I am the First and the Last, 18 And the Ever-living One [I am living in the eternity of the eternities]. I died, but see, I am alive forevermore; and I possess the keys of death and Hades (the realm of the dead). 19 Write therefore the things you see, what they are [and signify] and what is to take place hereafter. 20 As to the hidden meaning (the mystery) of the seven stars which you saw on My right hand and the seven lampstands of gold: the seven stars are the seven angels (messengers) of the seven assemblies (churches) and the seven lampstands are the seven churches.
Revelation 2:1 To the angel (messenger) of the assembly (church) in Ephesus write: These are the words of Him Who holds the seven stars [which are the messengers of the seven churches] in His right hand, Who goes about among the seven golden lampstands [which are the seven churches]: 2 I know your industry and activities, laborious toil and trouble, and your patient endurance, and how you cannot tolerate wicked [men] and have tested and critically appraised those who call [themselves] apostles (special messengers of Christ) and yet are not, and have found them to be impostors and liars. 3 I know you are enduring patiently and are bearing up for My name’s sake, and you have not fainted or become exhausted or grown weary. 4 But I have this [one charge to make] against you: that you have left (abandoned) the love that you had at first [you have deserted Me, your first love]. 5 Remember then from what heights you have fallen. Repent (change the inner man to meet God’s will) and do the works you did previously [when first you knew the Lord], or else I will visit you and remove your lampstand from its place, unless you change your mind and repent. 6 Yet you have this [in your favor and to your credit]: you hate the works of the Nicolaitans [what they are doing as corrupters of the people], which I Myself also detest. 7 He who is able to hear, let him listen to and give heed to what the Spirit says to the assemblies (churches). To him who overcomes (is victorious), I will grant to eat [of the fruit] of the tree of life, which is in the paradise of God.

The transition period that we have crossed into now is going to purge and strengthen the people who Jesus is walking among. His Body will not be broken, or be lost, but she will stand by Him while everything that can be shaken is shaken and the world and the chaff is finally removed. The greater the shaking- the greater the Glory that will be revealed. The Glory comes and we are all going to be changed and enlarged by it. The enlargement will flow as we trust in Him who leads us all to obey His commands. It is by His Hand the deeper shakings will now come. It is His intention to use the turbulence of the years ahead of us, to transform the church into the greatest of all lights upon the earth. Such Grace and such Glory has not yet been seen, but is soon to be revealed! It is time to hear what the Spirit is saying to the churches, and to draw near to your first love, and to allow the turbulence of great change to remove everything that hinders His light. Great Shaking and Great Awakening and Great Glory are at hand! Its time for the Light Houses of the Church to brightly stand across every land!

John 17:17 Sanctify them [purify, consecrate, separate them for Yourself, make them holy] by the Truth; Your Word is Truth.

"Write the Vision- Make it Plain- That the People May Run With It!" - Powerful Prophetic Encounter



“Write The Vision, Make It Plain, That The People May Run With It!”



As I was sleeping tonight, I had a very powerful encounter with the Lord. A powerful scene was playing out in my dream that became so powerful it literally had every part of me engaged with it, until it literally woke me up from it!

In the dream, I was writing a song. I was making a video of a ballad about America. I was filming scenes of normal everyday American people waking up and singing to her nation. As they sang, they each began to stand one by one, and their voices grew louder and louder, until the whole land was singing to her land. 

Their words grew so power and deep that my entire being was singing it too, and the words poured through my being with such love that my own heart sang in the dream! The people had begun to sing a new national anthem to her. I knew it was the “People’s Anthem!” 

Across the land, people began to rise up everywhere and take a stand, and they joined hands to hands, and their voices rung loud, true and clear. I then realized that I saw faith in our nation being born, and a new beginning was taking root again, far and near! A new anthem had begun to sound all around! It was so powerful that life began to flow through everyone in our nation within the vision. 

All of a sudden a great wind blew and I awoke with a start! Because a wind gust hit our apartment building and shook the windows, and a light flashed outside my window through the curtains! I realized then that high winds truly were in the natural blowing down the street in Rochester, as we are also under weather alerts for high winds this morning. The timing of God is so impeccable! I lay in the bed for a minute listening, waiting for the Lord to see if any more came, and then the Spirit said to get up.

The White Horse Is Running!

So I start walking down the hallway to the kitchen and I see the vision of the White Horse running fiercely at full speed! He was fully on the move! His muscles were pounding swiftly, and his face was bent with the winds, and he was fierce to behold! It made my whole being shake watching him running furiously past me!

Then the Holy Spirit said:

“Write! Write the Vision! Make it plain! It’s time the people awaken and run with it! Now is the time! Let faith arise! Let your hearts take courage! Now is your hour! Your scroll is opening! It’s time to take a stand! Your destiny is at hand! Awaken! God is shaking you with His Hand! Understand! Your Great Awakening has begun! Its time for your nation’s vision to expand! Run with the vision for your land! It was given to you from God’s hand! Your time is at hand!”

The vision was so powerful that I am still trembling as I write this encounter out this morning! Something new has begun in the Spirit today on 1-11……. God is fully on the move, and nothing can prevent our scrolls from coming to pass- but us. It’s time to believe again! It’s time to decide in whom we are going to believe in and run! Its time to arise with God’s destiny burning in our hearts and eyes!

Scriptures:

Habakkuk 2:1 [Oh, I know, I have been rash to talk out plainly this way to God!] I will [in my thinking] stand upon my post of observation and station myself on the tower or fortress, and will watch to see what He will say within me and what answer I will make [as His mouthpiece] to the perplexities of my complaint against Him. 2 And the Lord answered me and said, Write the vision and engrave it so plainly upon tablets that everyone who passes may [be able to] read [it easily and quickly] as he hastens by. 3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time and it hastens to the end [fulfillment]; it will not deceive or disappoint. Though it tarry, wait [earnestly] for it, because it will surely come; it will not be behindhand on its appointed day.

Luke 24:31 When their eyes were [instantly] opened and they [clearly] recognized Him, and He vanished (departed invisibly). 32 And they said to one another, Were not our hearts greatly moved and burning within us while He was talking with us on the road and as He opened and explained to us [the sense of] the Scriptures?

“The Mantle of Humility and the Battle for the Habitations”


“The Mantle of Humility and the Battle for the Habitations” - Podcast

The Lord started speaking to me alot the past few days out of John Chapter 5.

My core text for tonight's message:

John 5:19 So Jesus answered them by saying, I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, the Son is able to do nothing of Himself (of His own accord); but He is able to do only what He sees the Father doing, for whatever the Father does is what the Son does in the same way [in His turn]. 20 The Father dearly loves the Son and discloses to (shows) Him everything that He Himself does. And He will disclose to Him (let Him see) greater things yet than these, so that you may marvel and be full of wonder and astonishment. 30 I am able to do nothing from Myself [independently, of My own accord—but only as I am taught by God and as I get His orders]. Even as I hear, I judge [I decide as I am bidden to decide. As the voice comes to Me, so I give a decision], and My judgment is right (just, righteous), because I do not seek or consult My own will [I have no desire to do what is pleasing to Myself, My own aim, My own purpose] but only the will and pleasure of the Father Who sent Me.

Then I had two visions:

Vision #1.

In the vision today on 01-08-17, the Lord and I were standing in heaven and we were looking at scenes being played of the earth. I saw scenes of disquiet, turmoil, and there was an uneasy brooding everywhere I looked. I saw the ground heaving up and down in great swells in areas. I looked closer where the uplift was happening and I saw the movement was due to the root structures underground that were being disturbed and dislodged by the church. I knew the enemy was not happy about his plans and systems being disrupted and dislodged in these areas and he was regrouping for a massive retaliation.

I looked to the Lord as if to inquire what we must do, and the Lord shook his head and said, “You can only win this battle that is coming with this.” He reached out his hand and he held out a plain garment. “This is the Mantle of Humility. This is the only weapon the enemy cannot see. If you try to defeat the plans of the enemy in your own pride, talents, gifts, or strength, then you will also become captive to his system. There is greater authority in humility than in giftings, weapons, and even anointings. It is time the church learns the power of true humility.”

“You cannot see all of the operations of the enemy without this. Put this on.” I reach out and take the garment and put it over my robe. It was soft and warm and felt like it was made for me. Jesus smiled at my thought. “Yes, it was made for you. You are all called to walk in Me. Walking in My Humility is one of My Attributes and My Purposes that you must cultivate and mature into in your walks. You cannot see clearly without it. Now look at the ground that was swelling again.”

I turned to see where the ground was moving, and I could see warfare under the ground. Light and darkness was raging under the ground as saints and devils were battling in the root structures that held the ground fast. It looked like lava and lightning swirling and striking as they fought. But I noticed that as soon as some roots were loosened and becoming dislodged, the person doing the battling began to let up and moved to another area doing the same as they went. This did not fully eradicate the problem but it actually strengthened the root system to tighten its grip after the person left the area. The whole ground was regrouping.

I looked, and I thought, “We haven’t done much have we? Are we making any progress at all Lord? Isn’t there a better way?” He turned towards me and said, “Yes! Its time to ask that question of Me! I have a better way! What you see here is the level of surface warfare that your generation is used to fighting, they get a few results and they think they have won and they move on thinking everything is okay, but they do not realize they have not completely rooted out anything, but only made things harder. Its time to recognize that you need to humble yourselves and ask for My Wisdom, for I know where every enemy lies and I know when and where he will shortly strike. It’s not too late. That’s why you are here. Its time to shift gears.”

“It is important to walk closely by My side in this hour. Many shall foolishly rise up in their thinking and run into battle not fully equipped, not knowing they shall fall. You are no match without My robes on. There are different garments for different battles. In some battles you wear armor. In some battles you wear only mail. In some battles you wear camouflage to sneak in among the enemy. In some battles you are clothed with My Zeal, or My Joy, or My Holiness. But in this battle ahead that you all will face as a nation, it is My Robes of Humility that will save you. You must see what I see, so you must put them on quickly. You must hear what I hear, for the enemy wants to bring more confusion and fear. You must yield fully over to Me. You must act when I act, and not until I act. You must only move in My authority and move in tandem with Me. This is why you have had to fight these past three months. I was preparing you for what’s ahead.”

“The turbulence has begun as I have showed you. This shall increase as you all ascend. But you must guard your hearts and minds, and you do it by wearing My robe. When you humble yourself in Me then I shield your hearts and minds from the onslaught of the enemy. He does not want My church to see, or to see what she is destined to be. So he will use this turbulent times ahead to fill your hearts and minds with fear, stress, and dread to keep you defeated instead. You must keep your eyes upon Me and walk humbly with Me and with each other, for in this place is hidden the greatest of all power. As I humbled Myself before My Father, even so, I also triumphed over every enemy. You also will not only root out every evil work of the enemy that has been laid, but you all will also establish a new foundation for your nation to be built upon. Come, there is much work to do ahead of all of you.”

The Lord then led me to an interesting set of scriptures:

Zephaniah 2:2 [The time for repentance is speeding by like chaff whirled before the wind!] Therefore consider, before God’s decree brings forth [the curse upon you], before the time [to repent] is gone like the drifting chaff, before the fierce anger of the Lord comes upon you—yes, before the day of the wrath of the Lord comes upon you! 3 Seek the Lord [inquire for Him, inquire of Him, and require Him as the foremost necessity of your life], all you humble of the land who have acted in compliance with His revealed will and have kept His commandments; seek righteousness, seek humility [inquire for them, require them as vital]. It may be you will be hidden in the day of the Lord’s anger. 4 For [hear the fate of the Philistines:] Gaza shall be forsaken and Ashkelon shall become a desolation; the people of Ashdod shall be driven out at noonday and Ekron shall be uprooted. 

(Note: You can read the whole of Chapter two to get the full view.)

1 Peter 5:4 And [then] when the Chief Shepherd is revealed, you will win the conqueror’s crown of glory. 5 Likewise, you who are younger and of lesser rank, be subject to the elders (the ministers and spiritual guides of the church)—[giving them due respect and yielding to their counsel]. Clothe (apron) yourselves, all of you, with humility [as the garb of a servant, so that its covering cannot possibly be stripped from you, with freedom from pride and arrogance] toward one another. For God sets Himself against the proud (the insolent, the overbearing, the disdainful, the presumptuous, the boastful)—[and He opposes, frustrates, and defeats them], but gives grace (favor, blessing) to the humble. 6 Therefore humble yourselves [demote, lower yourselves in your own estimation] under the mighty hand of God, that in due time He may exalt you,

Vision #2:

I was in my apartment or a house, not quite sure, but I knew it was mine. The bathroom was being severely flooded because a pipe had burst outside in the street, and the water pressure that was flowing into the house was too great and it looked like a geyser erupted in the pipe works of the bathroom. I called frantically for someone to call the city to turn the water pressure off. I knew that we would have to move out because so much water was coming out that it would flood us in minutes destroying everything. I started yelling to people to get their belongings out.

The Pipes represent the church structure that currently handles the flow of water or “truth” in a city. The quality of the pipes determines the quality of the flow. Pipes are interconnected through relationships, or networking within the Body of Christ.

The release of the Glory that is coming is going to break through the weaknesses within our relationships and alliances and networks. It will also expose our faults and weaknesses so they can be repaired, or replace sections not properly aligned. But either way, the Glory is going to be stronger than what we have all prepared for. Which is a God thing, because this is for our growth and maturity. It is going to rebuild, strengthen, and revolutionize the whole structure of the Body of Christ into a brand new glorious workmanship, flowing in harmony with His Will and His Ways.

2017: “We Are Ascending Into the Transformation of our Lives and of the Nations”




2017: “We Are Ascending Into the Transformation of our Lives and of the Nations”


Patrick and Susan share many insights and prophetic encounters the Lord gave them for the Year 2017, as well as understanding for the Years 2016-2019. It is vital that we remain in the Rest of God, seated in our places as we transcend the turbulence of the Winds of Change in order to see what the Lord has waiting for us all above the cloudline. Its going to be a remarkable and notable year for those who will rest and trust in Him who works out all of our scrolls.


(Outline of Susan's notes for the New Years Message given at SOG)



Two weeks ago as I was opening our service at SOG, I was taken into a vision, which is panoramic for where we are all at right now as individuals and as a nation. I saw us all sitting strapped into our seats in an airplane and we were all rising from the ground level into the air and we were about to go through the clouds. 
I knew that as we entered the clouds, that there would be turbulence in the transition as the Winds of Change were in the clouds. As we enter the clouds, the turbulence will be sudden and swift.
The purpose of the turbulence we are about to go through is to remove any remaining baggage and residue that is left from our leaving the lower levels. It is also to force us to trust in the care and wisdom of God as He brings us all through the transition phase we are currently in.
Ecclesiastes 3:10 I have seen the painful labor and exertion and miserable business which God has given to the sons of men with which to exercise and busy themselves. 11 He has made everything beautiful in its time. He also has planted eternity in men’s hearts and minds [a divinely implanted sense of a purpose working through the ages which nothing under the sun but God alone can satisfy], yet so that men cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end. 12 I know that there is nothing better for them than to be glad and to get and do good as long as they live;
Hebrews 12:27 Now this expression, Yet once more, indicates the final removal and transformation of all [that can be] shaken—that is, of that which has been created—in order that what cannot be shaken may remain and continue. 28 Let us therefore, receiving a kingdom that is firm and stable and cannot be shaken, offer to God pleasing service and acceptable worship, with modesty and pious care and godly fear and awe;
We have all left the point of no return, and have now begun our corporate ascent into the greater plans and purposes that the Father has for us all. The only place to go is up. We have to rise above everything in order to get a clearer view of the things ahead of us, which will be seen when we emerge above the clouds of change. 
The Lord has chosen to bring us into a new place, and it is in our best interest to cooperate with His process and remain seated in our seats, the place of trust and rest in Him, and let Him have His way through the ascent process. If we try to leave our seat, we will get knocked around in the turbulence and could have a tough time in the process. This transition process is the Lord and we are not to fear at all.
It is the Lord’s intention to clear up the messes that have been made below so to speak, so that we can have a clear view of the things that are true, and the things that are right and that are available to us in this generation, so that we can make good choices ahead, and to also choose the better way as a nation.
Mark 8:34 And Jesus called [to Him] the throng with His disciples and said to them, If anyone intends to come after Me, let him deny himself [forget, ignore, disown, and lose sight of himself and his own interests] and take up his cross, and [joining Me as a disciple and siding with My party] follow with Me [continually, cleaving steadfastly to Me]. 35 For whoever wants to save his [higher, spiritual, eternal] life, will lose it [the lower, natural, temporal life which is lived only on earth]; and whoever gives up his life [which is lived only on earth] for My sake and the Gospel’s will save it [his higher, spiritual life in the eternal kingdom of God]. 36 For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world, and forfeit his life [in the eternal kingdom of God]?
Luke 17:21 Nor will people say, Look! Here [it is]! or, See, [it is] there! For behold, the kingdom of God is within you [in your hearts] and among you [surrounding you].
Matthew 10:38 And he who does not take up his cross and follow Me [cleave steadfastly to Me, conforming wholly to My example in living and, if need be, in dying also] is not worthy of Me. 39 Whoever finds his [lower] life will lose it [the higher life], and whoever loses his [lower] life on My account will find it [the higher life].
So He is going to bring us through this turbulent season ahead, and we will have the opportunity to choose to agree with the higher way that He has for us individually and as a nation. This means that we must trust in His ways and let things shake and fall where they will. Everything has to go in order for us to know the way to go.
He knows what is best for us all, and He is also the pilot flying our plane. We can trust that we will arrive at the destination that He has for us all, and we will all be spiritually healthier and stronger for it. These are the days of Transformation and the Ascension has only just begun.
Romans 12:2 Do not be conformed to this world (this age), [fashioned after and adapted to its external, superficial customs], but be transformed (changed) by the [entire] renewal of your mind [by its new ideals and its new attitude], so that you may prove [for yourselves] what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God, even the thing which is good and acceptable and perfect [in His sight for you].

We must settle it in our hearts and minds to just remain in flight, rest in His care, knowing that the winds are for us and not against us. Even though you cant see as you are passing through the cloud barriers, we are to know that He sees, and He sees what we don’t see! We have to trust, and rest in His Wisdom as we move upwards into His purposes.
Isaiah 55:6 Seek, inquire for, and require the Lord while He may be found [claiming Him by necessity and by right]; call upon Him while He is near. 7 Let the wicked forsake his way and the unrighteous man his thoughts; and let him return to the Lord, and He will have love, pity, and mercy for him, and to our God, for He will multiply to him His abundant pardon. 8 For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways, says the Lord. 9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways and My thoughts than your thoughts. 10 For as the rain and snow come down from the heavens, and return not there again, but water the earth and make it bring forth and sprout, that it may give seed to the sower and bread to the eater, 11 So shall My word be that goes forth out of My mouth: it shall not return to Me void [without producing any effect, useless], but it shall accomplish that which I please and purpose, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.
Proverbs 3:5 Lean on, trust in, and be confident in the Lord with all your heart and mind and do not rely on your own insight or understanding.
(Which means - the leaning of the entire human personality on God in Christ Jesus in absolute trust and confidence in His power, wisdom, and goodness.)
He knows the future, and has it all planned out for us individually and as a nation. He wrote our scrolls, and He knows exactly how they will unroll. We will have a much clearer view as we pass through this time. We will arrive and we will all be right on His time!
Ephesians 1:9 Making known to us the mystery (secret) of His will (of His plan, of His purpose). [And it is this:] In accordance with His good pleasure (His merciful intention) which He had previously purposed and set forth in Him, 10 [He planned] for the maturity of the times and the climax of the ages to unify all things and head them up and consummate them in Christ, [both] things in heaven and things on the earth. 11 In Him we also were made [God’s] heritage (portion) and we obtained an inheritance; for we had been foreordained (chosen and appointed beforehand) in accordance with His purpose, Who works out everything in agreement with the counsel and design of His [own] will,
*** The Pearls raining down in Fridays (12/30) meeting: 
Acts 4:33 Great Grace rested richly upon them all….
*** The sign of the two knocks on my door last week:
Revelations 3:14 And to the angel (messenger) of the assembly (church) in Laodicea write: These are the words of the Amen, the trusty and faithful and true Witness, the Origin and Beginning and Author of God’s creation: 15 I know your [record of] works and what you are doing; you are neither cold nor hot. Would that you were cold or hot! 16 So, because you are lukewarm and neither cold nor hot, I will spew you out of My mouth! 17 For you say, I am rich; I have prospered and  grown wealthy, and I am in need of nothing; and you do not realize and understand that you are wretched, pitiable, poor, blind, and naked. 18 Therefore I counsel you to purchase from Me gold refined and tested by fire, that you may be [truly] wealthy, and white clothes to clothe you and to keep the shame of your nudity from being seen, and salve to put on your eyes, that you may see. 19 Those whom I [dearly and tenderly] love, I tell their faults and convict and convince and reprove and chasten [I discipline and instruct them]. So be enthusiastic and in earnest and burning with zeal and repent [changing your mind and attitude]. 20 Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears and listens to and heeds My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and will eat with him, and he [will eat] with Me. 21 He who overcomes (is victorious), I will grant him to sit beside Me on My throne, as I Myself overcame (was victorious) and sat down beside My Father on His throne. 22 He who is able to hear, let him listen to and heed what the [Holy] Spirit says to the assemblies (churches).

1. They open and close things                                                            
2. They end and begin things                                                            
3. They are for markers and signs of cycles and seasons                
Natural signs of the spiritual exchanges for the purpose of realigning the nations for harvest:
1. Changing of leadership roles/seats   
2. Changing of laws and of mindsets for harvest
3. Changing of borders/boundaries 
The timing and significance of the “double doors”: 
“Eating the Books to prophesy to the nations for transformation!”
Revelations 10:10 Then I saw another mighty angel coming down from heaven, robed in a cloud, with a [halo like a] rainbow over his head; his face was like the sun, and his feet (legs) were like columns of fire. 2 He had a little book (scroll) open in his hand. He set his right foot on the sea and his left foot on the land, 3 And he shouted with a loud voice like the roaring of a lion; and when he had shouted, the seven thunders gave voice and uttered their message in distinct words. 4 And when the seven thunders had spoken (sounded), I was going to write [it down], but I heard a voice from heaven saying, Seal up what the seven thunders have said! Do not write it down! 5 Then the [mighty] angel whom I had seen stationed on sea and land raised his right hand to heaven (the [sky), 6 And swore in the name of (by) Him Who lives forever and ever, Who created the heavens ([sky) and all they contain, and the earth and all that it contains, and the sea and all that it contains. [He swore] that no more time should intervene and there should be no more waiting or delay, 7 But that when the days come when the trumpet call of the seventh angel is about to be sounded, then God’s mystery (His secret design, His hidden purpose), as He had announced the glad tidings to His servants the prophets, should be fulfilled (accomplished, completed). 8 Then the voice that I heard from heaven spoke again to me, saying, Go and take the little book (scroll) which is open on the hand of the angel who is standing on the sea and on the land. 9 So I went up to the angel and asked him to give me the little book. And he said to me, Take it and eat it. It will embitter your stomach, though in your mouth it will be as sweet as honey. 10 So I took the little book from the angel’s hand and ate and swallowed it; it was as sweet as honey in my mouth, but once I had swallowed it, my stomach was embittered. 11 Then they said to me, You are to make a fresh prophecy concerning many peoples and races and nations and languages and kings.
Embittered means: to be indignant, angry, bitter, but also to be burdened, grieved, sobered, and a realization of the weight of responsibility of leadership.
2 Chronicles 1:8 And Solomon said to God, You have shown great mercy and loving-kindness to David my father and have made me king in his place. 9 Now, O Lord God, let Your promise to David my father be fulfilled, for you have made me king over a people like the dust of the earth in multitude. 10 Give me now wisdom and knowledge to go out and come in before this people, for who can rule this Your people who are so great? 11 God replied to Solomon, Because this was in your heart and you have not asked for riches, possessions, honor, and glory, or the life of your foes, or even for long life, but have asked wisdom and knowledge for yourself, that you may rule and judge My people over whom I have made you king, 12 Wisdom and knowledge are granted you. And I will give you riches, possessions, honor, and glory, such as none of the kings had before you, and none after you shall have their equal.
