"The
Starry Night Experience With Jesus"
I went to bed really late
because I couldn't sleep, and as I laid down on the bed, I immediately felt the
Presence of the Lord:
Then I see in the vision: I
am sitting on a hillside at night looking at the stars which seem so bright.
Jesus is sitting next to me with his hands around his knees looking at the
stars too. He is smiling and looking intently at each one. I follow His gaze
and look at them. He says to me, "Do you know what stars those are?"
I said, "No Lord, I don't know. I never learned to tell the stars and
constellations from each other in school." He said, "I know each of
them by name. I placed each of them in their spot in the heavens. Every one of
them are held there by My Word. When I created them, I gave them their
boundaries. I am in control of the heavens and the earth. Not one star moves
from it's place without My knowledge. As the effects of sin has ravaged the
earth and the people on it, so are the heavens also being moved in their
places. Sin affects everything, and you must always defeat it's temptations
daily in order to stay in My Will. When you are in My Will, nothing can move
you."
He looked at Me and smiled.
I knew there was more, but I waited. He did not say anything for awhile. I
continued to watch the stars. He turned back to Me and said, "Don't ever
doubt Me." I was shocked, and a little taken aback by His bluntness, but I
also knew He was right. I did struggle some days with thoughts of doubt and
insecurity at times. I swallowed and my heart was grieved at this. I said,
"I am truly sorry Lord. I know you are right. I get caught up in the daily
things and I get frustrated. I am truly sorry. Help me to be constant like the
stars we are looking at." I looked up and said, "I want to be unmovable
like them." The Lord looked at Me and nodded. "Yes," He said,
"It is good to want to be stable and fixed like them, but that is not the
best. I want you to be fixed and firmly rooted to Me. You can see the stars and
trust in them, for you see them, and you know they will always be there. But
greater is the one who can fully trust in Me, even though he does not see Me,
and can remain stable and fixed on Me, just because He believes in Me alone,
and knows that I am there, even when they cannot see Me. You know this. My Word
tells you this. It is time for you to be this. It is time for each of My People
to fully believe. I do not want you to ever doubt Me again."
"I want you to believe
in Me with all of your heart. I want you to trust in Me even if you cannot see.
I want you to be so secure in Me that nothing can remove you from your place.
You must cleave to Me totally, especially in your thoughts. It is time for My
People to believe and not doubt. I hold everything in this world and in the
heavens in My Hand, and everything is upheld by My Word. Would I not also
uphold you?" I nodded, "Yes, Lord." He said, "Good. You
must remember this, and know that as the days ahead pass many things in the
earth and also in the heavens will change. Some of the stars will change their
course and fear will come to many hearts. Things on the earth will change and
be contrary to it's natural order but that is also part of the process of sin
that has brought a degrading of the natural order through the effects of sin
and also of man's manipulation of creation. But I want you to know that I am in
control of all things and will allow these things to awaken the earth from it's
slumber. I will start with waking up My sleeping My Church. Many changes will
come. But My Church will not be shaken or moved by these things. No, on the
contrary, for I shall speak to My People, and those who hear My voice will be
fixed firmly during all phases of the coming changes, and they will be a great
strength and benefit to the inhabitants of the earth."
"It is time for My
Church to shine like My stars above. It is time for My Church to arise with the
knowledge of Me and to reveal that knowledge to humanity. How can humanity know
Me if My People don't shine? How can they see an overcoming church if she struggles
with doubts and fears? My Church must rise up new and put on Christ, as My Word
tells you. I am more than enough for you. I am in perfect control and I do not
fear in any situation. I am not moved by the storms of life or by evil. It is
time that you are not moved by these things either. Build yourself up in your
most holy faith and feed upon Me. Your faith and trust in Me is not something
that ebbs and wanes like the tides. No, it is a Rock rooted within your every
being. It is Me. Let go of your fear, and trust in Me, especially in your
thoughts, for this is where your struggles lie. I am not rooted in your mind, I
am rooted in your heart. You are to take every thought captive and bring it to
total submission to Me. This will be your source of peace and stability. I want
My People walking with Me from their spirits and not from their thoughts. You
serve Me with your spirit, for you are a spirit. This is where you are
fixed."
Jesus then stood up. I
stood up too, and turned to see what He was looking at. He was looking up at
the stars again. He then began to turn around in a circle with his head still
looking up. He turned around a few more times, and He then stopped and looked
downwards again and then at Me.
he said to me, "When I turned around, did any of the stars move? Did
anything change at all?" I said, "No Lord." He said to me,
"When you move outside of My will, it is only you that moves. I don't ever
leave My Will for you. My Plans for you don't change, just because you do. I
remain fixed in My Purposes for you. But I can't do them for you in your life
if you aren't fixed firmly in Me. When you move contrary to Me, even in your
thoughts, you move out of the place where I can speak clearly to you and give
you wisdom. You struggle because you have left Me, you turned your focus away
from Me. I never moved. I want you to see that it is vitally important for you
to remain firmly fixed in your thoughts, in your actions, and in your heart. I
am able to speak to you when you are listening for Me. I can guide you safely
and effectively when you are not trying to work things our for yourself. I want
you to be still and know that I am God. I am at work in your life, and I will
bring you to completion, just as I am at work in the earth, and will bring
everything that I have written for her to completion too."
"I am moving in the
earth and in the heavens, and what I do will reveal to the earth who I am. Men
don't want to know who I am. They close their minds and hearts to any mention
of Me. But that is about to change drastically, for I am going to shake the
earth and the heavens more and the men upon the earth will not be able to shut
Me out, nor deny that I am. For all shall see that I am God and that I hold
their lives in My hands. I am going to bring forth such a display that even My
Church will finally fear Me reverently. It is time for true deep seated faith
to be born in the hearts of men. It is time for sincere faith to be
demonstrated in My Church again. I want true devotion and sincere love being
displayed again. So, I am going to increase My Winds and change will be
multiplied across the globe. I am awakening the hearts of men. I am looking for
faith in the earth. What will I find as I move My Hand? I tell you truly, I
will find a Church that does truly in Me, stand!"
Jesus then raised His hand
high and pointed at the stars. He said, "These are like the generations of
men. I showed them to My sons long ago. They gave everything to find them. They
forsook all to reach out towards their call. They learned to trust in Me in
their journeys also, as you do in this current day. Nothing shall pass away of
My Word, even as you see the stars still in the sky. My Word and My Creation
will remain till all is completed, as My Word says, but much will also be
changed. You must fix your faith firmly in Me and never doubt My Hand
concerning you. I will keep My Word concerning you. You must keep My Word too.
Never let it depart from you. Stir up your spirit each day to draw closer to Me
and you shall never waver nor continue to struggle with insecurity again. You
shall shine radiantly with Me, as you allow My Hand to be seen clearly through
you in all that you do. This is My desire, that you would reach higher, even
into the stars."
I said, "Lord, I would
love to reach to the stars." He smiled broadly and reached out and picked
me up bodily and literally threw Me up into the air, and when He did this, I
literally went hurling up into the sky further and further until I could not
see the place where we both were standing anymore. All of a sudden I stopped flying
upwards and stopped right where I was. I did not fall back to the earth. I just
hung there in the sky, pinned there by an unseen hand. Then, I felt this
rushing sensation inside of me. It felt like bubbling. I began to laugh, and I
felt such joy that I broke out laughing out loud in the sky. I felt so alive as
I laughed that I never wanted to come down. I felt like bursting, the joy was
so rich and full. I felt full of light, then it dawned on me that I was shining
with His Joy! I laughed even more!
Then just as suddenly I was
back by His side on the mountain. He was enjoying my little trip as much as I
did, I thought. He smiled at me, knowing my thought, and His eyes twinkled, and
He said, "Even your experience just now was controlled by Me. I held you
in the sky and filled you even more with Myself till you overflowed. This is My
desire, that you would walk with me like this upon the earth everyday, totally full
of Me and also controlled by Me. In this way you will find true joy and
liberty. You will see even more, and increase in your ability to see as I see,
and you will be able to walk through the earth without wavering in any season,
and you surely will shine with Me. My Church is also going to awaken to this
reality, for I am going to stir her mightily. As the signs of the heavens and
the earth advances and changes, so also shall My Church also advance and
change. She will ascend to her highest place and she will faithfully run her
earthly race, and the world will see My Face."
Nehemiah 9:6
“Blessed be your glorious name, and may it be exalted above all blessing and
praise. 6 You alone are the LORD. You made the heavens, even the
highest heavens, and all their starry host, the earth and all that is on it,
the seas and all that is in them. You give life to everything, and the
multitudes of heaven worship you.
Psalms 33:6
By the word of the LORD the heavens were made, their starry host by the
breath of his mouth.
Isaiah 40:26
Lift up your eyes and look to the heavens: Who created all these? He who brings
out the starry host one by one and calls forth each
of them by name. Because of his great power and mighty strength, not one of
them is missing.
Genesis 15:5
And he brought him outside and said, "Look toward heaven, and number the stars, if you are able to number
them." Then he said to him, "So shall your offspring be."
Genesis 22:17
I will surely bless you, and I will surely multiply your offspring as the stars of heaven and as the sand that
is on the seashore. And your offspring shall possess the gate of his enemies,
Deuteronomy
28:62 Whereas you were as numerous as the stars of heaven, you shall be left few in number, because you did
not obey the voice of the LORD your God.
Psalms 8:3
When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers, the
moon and the stars, which you have set in place, 4 what is man that
you are mindful of him, and the son of man that you
care for him?
Psalms 147:4
He determines the number of the stars;
he gives to all of them their names.
Jeremiah
31:34 And no longer shall each one teach his neighbor and each his brother,
saying, 'Know the LORD,' for they shall all know me, from the least of them to
the greatest, declares the LORD. For I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember
their sin no more." 35 Thus says the LORD, who gives the sun for
light by day and the fixed order of the moon and the stars for light by
night, who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar—the LORD of hosts is his
name: 36 "If this fixed order departs from before me, declares the
LORD, then shall the offspring of Israel cease from being a nation before
me forever."
Daniel 12:2
And many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to
everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt. 3 And those who
are wise shall shine like the brightness of the sky above; and those who turn
many to righteousness, like the stars forever and ever. 4 But you, Daniel, shut
up the words and seal the book, until the time of the end. Many shall run to
and fro, and knowledge shall increase."
Job 15:11 Are
God's consolations [as we have interpreted them to you] too trivial for you? Is
there any secret thing (any bosom sin) which you have not given up? [Or] were
we too gentle [in our first speech] toward you to be effective? 12 Why does
your heart carry you away [why allow yourself to be controlled by feeling]? And
why do your eyes flash [in anger or contempt], 13 That you turn your spirit
against God and let [such] words [as you have spoken] go out of your mouth?
Psalms 78:72
So [David] was their shepherd with an upright heart; he guided them by the
discernment and skillfulness [which controlled] his hands.
Hebrews 11:13
These people all died controlled and sustained by their faith, but not having
received the tangible fulfillment of [God's] promises, only having seen it and
greeted it from a great distance by faith, and all the while acknowledging and
confessing that they were strangers and temporary residents and exiles upon the
earth.
Romans 8:4 So
that the righteous and just requirement of the Law might be fully met in us who
live and move not in the ways of the flesh but in the ways of the Spirit [our
lives governed not by the standards and according to the dictates of the flesh,
but controlled by the Holy Spirit]. 5 For those who are according to the flesh
and are controlled by its unholy desires set their minds on and pursue those
things which gratify the flesh, but those who are according to the Spirit and
are controlled by the desires of the Spirit set their minds on and seek those
things which gratify the [Holy] Spirit.
Galatians
5:16 But I say, walk and live [habitually] in the [Holy] Spirit [responsive to
and controlled and guided by the Spirit]; then you will certainly not gratify
the cravings and desires of the flesh (of human nature without God).
Luke 4:1 THEN
JESUS, full of and controlled by the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was
led in [by] the [Holy] Spirit.
Isaiah 41:10
Be not afraid, for with thee I [am], Look not around, for I [am] thy God, I
have strengthened thee, Yea, I have helped thee, yea, I upheld thee, With the
right hand of My righteousness.
Psalms 111:7
The works of His hands [are] true and just, Steadfast [are] all His
appointments. 8They are sustained for ever to the age. They are made in
truth and uprightness. 9 Redemption He hath sent to His people, He hath
appointed to the age His covenant, Holy and fearful [is] His name.
James 1:12
“Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood
the test he will receive the crown of life, which God has promised to those who
love him.
Luke 5:26 And
overwhelming astonishment and ecstasy seized them all, and they recognized and
praised and thanked God; and they were filled with and controlled by
reverential fear and kept saying, We have seen wonderful and strange and
incredible and unthinkable things today!
