I was laying on the floor of my bedroom praying in the Spirit with my eyes closed, and after a few minutes I became aware of an angel standing over me looking down at me. He had long blond hair that was pulled back, and he had what looked like golden armor on, and a massive sword that he held at his side. When he saw that I was aware of him, he said, “What are you doing?” Surprised, I said, “I am praying.”
He said, “Come I have important things to show you.” So, we stepped over into the Spirit, and he led me through many places till we came into a place that was full of old fallen stone works and massive ruins that have long been in disarray and the atmosphere here was thick and stale. There was no sunlight and it was cold and damp. It was a very old ancient ruin site with broken pillars, cracked stone bases fallen into piles, and many carved arches that were all broken up and strewn around. The angel looked all around, and I could see that he was concerned about it, and he was stern faced as we walked through the ruins. I could see that no one had visited this place for a long time, and that it was forgotten. I wondered what these former ruins were before they fell down.
The angel stopped walking and said to me, “This place must be rebuilt again. In its time, it was a formidable fortress and a powerful center of much Kingdom activity. It began to be neglected over time, and the people no longer served the fortress here. The people did not care for its higher cause and for the works that were done here, for they only cared about their own life pursuits and plans. So, over time the people left, and the place stood empty as a testament to their unfaithfulness to the kingdom purposes that were formerly entrusted to them.”
“Now, it is a place of broken stones and of faint memories of a former glory that once was. It must finish telling its mandated story! You must repair these stone works here and reset the pillars in your time. You don’t have much time to realign what has been neglected over time! The rebuilding process must quickly commence!"
"The ancient fortresses must speak forth the final sequences that have yet to be heard throughout the earth! There is much to be done! I am here to assist all of you that can see and that still can hear, for the time of the repairing of the final preparations has come. Everything is ready, for a new generation of obedient ones is currently being assembled now, and they will be obedient to the task of the King!”
I asked the angel, “What are these ruins?” He shouted loudly with his mighty sword raised high, “This is the Lord’s House, and it must be rebuilt aright for it has fallen down in men’s sight. The cries of the generations in bondage have come up before Him! The Fortresses of Truth must be quickly rebuilt now before the coming forth of the darkest of nights rises! The rebuilding process must quickly begin, and the prayers born anew from this fortress will birth forth the latter glory of the King that will flood the whole earth, and the full harvest will safely be brought in!”
Scriptures:
Ezra 9:8 And now, for a brief moment, grace has been shown us by the Lord our God, Who has left us a remnant to escape and has given us a secure hold in His holy place, that our God may brighten our eyes and give us a little reviving in our bondage. 9 For we are bondmen; yet our God has not forsaken us in our bondage but has extended mercy and steadfast love to us before the kings of Persia, to give us some reviving to set up the house of our God, to repair its ruins, and to give us a wall [of protection] in Judah and Jerusalem.
Haggai 1:3 Then came the word of the Lord by Haggai the prophet, saying, 4 Is it time for you yourselves to dwell in your paneled houses while this house [of the Lord] lies in ruins? 5 Now therefore thus says the Lord of hosts: Consider your ways and set your mind on what has come to you. 6 You have sown much, but you have reaped little; you eat, but you do not have enough; you drink, but you do not have your fill; you clothe yourselves, but no one is warm; and he who earns wages has earned them to put them in a bag with holes in it. 7 Thus says the Lord of hosts: Consider your ways (your previous and present conduct) and how you have fared. 8 Go up to the hill country and bring lumber and rebuild [My] house, and I will take pleasure in it and I will be glorified, says the Lord [by accepting it as done for My glory and by displaying My glory in it]. 9 You looked for much [harvest], and behold, it came to little; and even when you brought that home, I blew it away. Why? says the Lord of hosts. Because of My house, which lies waste while you yourselves run each man to his own house [eager to build and adorn it]. 10 Therefore the heavens above you [for your sake] withhold the dew, and the earth withholds its produce. 11 And I have called for a drought upon the land and the hill country, upon the grain, the fresh wine, the oil, upon what the ground brings forth, upon men and cattle, and upon all the [wearisome] toil of [men’s] hands. 12 Then Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel and Joshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest, with all the remnant of the people [who had returned from captivity], listened to and obeyed the voice of the Lord their God [not vaguely or partly, but completely, according to] the words of Haggai the prophet, since the Lord their God had sent him, and the people [reverently] feared and [worshipfully] turned to the Lord. 13 Then Haggai, the Lord’s messenger, spoke the Lord’s message to the people saying, I am with you, says the Lord. 14 And the Lord aroused the spirit of Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and the spirit of Joshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and the spirit of all the remnant of the people, so that they came and labored on the house of the Lord of hosts, their God,
Isaiah 51:3 For the Lord will comfort Zion; He will comfort all her waste places. And He will make her wilderness like Eden, and her desert like the garden of the Lord. Joy and gladness will be found in her, thanksgiving and the voice of song or instrument of praise. 4 Listen to Me [the Lord], O My people, and give ear to Me, O My nation; for a [divine] law will go forth from Me, and I will establish My justice for a light to the peoples.
Isaiah 61:1 The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me, because the Lord has anointed and qualified me to preach the Gospel of good tidings to the meek, the poor, and afflicted; He has sent me to bind up and heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the [physical and spiritual] captives and the opening of the prison and of the eyes to those who are bound, 2 To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord [the year of His favor] and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn, 3 To grant [consolation and joy] to those who mourn in Zion—to give them an ornament (a garland or diadem) of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, the garment [expressive] of praise instead of a heavy, burdened, and failing spirit—that they may be called oaks of righteousness [lofty, strong, and magnificent, distinguished for uprightness, justice, and right standing with God], the planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified. 4 And they shall rebuild the ancient ruins; they shall raise up the former desolations and renew the ruined cities, the devastations of many generations.
