Ringstraked and Speckled

The white sheep are gathered all in a line,
How nice to have all alike; how sublime!
A few different there are . . . a spotted or two,
But all ringstraked and speckled, what could we do?

We could try to corral them; tie them with knots,
But ringstraked and speckled don’t stay in one spot!
They each have their calling and are determined to go,
Oh, ringstraked and speckled, why won’t you flow?

Well, Jacob, you take them; you’ll know what to do,
‘Cause you’re one of those quite different ones, too!
We’ll stay with the white sheep all in a row,
But go with these new ones, oh no!!

It isn’t exciting, but we are at ease.
Just let us stay in our safety, please.
We may not see Canaan or God face to face;
You go ahead, Jacob, and run this new race!!

Vision of the Maidens

The Changing Church Part 7
_
An ordinary day, I thought, certainly nothing to be extremely excited about. What seems to be the onset of a hum-drum day, however, becomes extraordinary when touched by the Spirit of the living God. That day He touched me to again see into His supernatural world. This time the vision coincided with my own personal life.

Vision of the Donkey – 1976

The Changing Church Part 6
_
Actually, this is the first of several visions the Lord gave me 40 years ago on the topic of the new move in the Body of Christ. While straining, pressing in to focus on the scene before me, I marveled at this wondrous way God speaks to us. It was, unbeknownst to me, to become the way I live, minister, endure, and overcome. Coupled with the Word of God, visions can lead and guide us into His truth very easily; very quickly – “I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh, and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, and your young men shall see visions…” (Joel 2:28).

Vision of the Wave

The Changing Church Part 5
_
The sea looked calm, but gray and ominous. There was a feeling of rising, pent up anger just waiting to surface. Something was about to happen—to explode—as the Holy Spirit seemed to brood over the waters as He did in the beginning: “. . . and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters” (Genesis 1:2, KJV).
