Hosanna Restoration Church

God has a way. God is. God is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. No matter how much anyone tries; the truth cannot be changed. God is truth, love, joy, peace and everything else anyone could ever need. Life is found in simply accepting the truth. That sounds too simple to some and too complex to others, but it is still the truth.

I had a dream that I walked into the church and there was a large tower just inside the doors of the sanctuary. It went from the floor to the peak of the ceiling with a base that extended well beyond the width of the doors. It was all in one piece with no way to assemble or disassemble it. I could not figure out how it got there or what we were going to do with it now that it was there.

It was sort of like an elephant in the room and yet I had a sense that it fit right where it was. You had to pass through it to get into the worship area and you had to watch where you going as you did in order to step over the threshold or bottom support. I have some thoughts about the meaning and I am seeking the Lord for further understanding. I am also open to input from anyone who God gives further understanding.

I felt that the tower represented the presence of God and that this was to let me know that He was moving in a very obvious way. What had been glimpses in the past would in fact become like an object that could not be ignored. For some it may seem too obtrusive and out of place and a total distraction. Some may not even what to pass thru it and turn away. Others may pass thru but desire that we find a way to dismantle it and get it out of there before it offended people and kept them out.

It may be that it has always been there and this explains the reactions that some people have had. I am in need of more clarity on that point, but I have a real sense that it is about to get very obvious, and that excites me! One thing was very clear, and that was that the tower belongs just as the presence of God belongs and should be the focus at all times. It should be such an attraction that it serves as a distraction from everything that is not God.

I feel like His presence is about to become an attraction and people are going to desire to see it for themselves more and more. We need to honor what God desires to do and we need to nurture and do everything we can to accommodate Him and not even consider a way to work around Him. His tangible presence can and will change the world just as it has changed our lives if we know Him.

God has made a way and that way is Jesus. In the same way that I could not explain how a tower appeared in the Church I cannot explain how God can live in us, but He just moves in thru Jesus Christ. When He is in, He is able to do everything that He says. We need only to enjoy and honor that presence. We need to get used to the presence but never take Him for granted. We should be so attracted that we are distracted from everything that is not God in such a way that we always turn to God. He is that strong tower. We run to Him and we are safe. We do not have to understand it all, we simply need to believe and with believing comes understanding.
