FOUND
Niki Hodgson

In Your presence there’s no need for my armor,
Love pries the sword from my hand.
I seek You out, I stumble closer,
sitting on Your throne room floor.

Double-crossed, wounded & betrayed.
Reputation shattered, suspicion & lies created.
But I seek You out and I stumble closer,
crying on Your throne room floor.

So, when I wanted the Lion, I found the Lamb.
When I needed the seas parted, You calm the storm.
When I demanded a battle cry, you showed me your nail pierced hands,
When I wanted the Lion, I found the Lamb.

In Your presence there’s no need for my pretense.
Love whispers, “Child you will be ok.”
I seek You out and I stumble closer,
breaking on Your throne room floor.

Wine press, break apart, crushed and devastated.
Sacrifice, laying down, yielded and conceited.
But I seek You out and I stumble closer,
burning on Your throne room floor.

When I wanted the Lion, I found the Lamb.
When I wanted the walls to fall, You had me sing a song.
When I demanded Your hand in Judgement, You bent down and wrote in the sand.
When I wanted the Lion, I found the Lamb.

Face to Face with the Lamb, You lead me to the garden.
You drank the cup that was meant for me, thorns for my pardon
You seek me out and you pull me closer.
And I die here on Your throne room floor.

When I wanted the Lion, I found the Lamb.
Not in the parted seas, or in the fallen walls.
Not in the sound of justice, or the eco of a hammer fall…
but You spoke in a still small voice.

When I surrendered to the Lion, I found the Lamb.

I was woken up by the Lord early on the 2nd of January 2024, with this statement, “My child, in the previous year, you have been so focused on trying to proof who has been guilty and who has been innocent, that you lost focus of Me.”

He told me that many in the Body of Christ, experienced a tremendous year of trials and severe tests on relationships, [including marriages].
The majority of onslaughts had been so unexpected that a lot of confusion set in and many demanded answers and a verdict on others.
…
A natural response for me has been to ensure the cleanliness of my hands and the purity of heart, but somehow, I became so blinded by my obsession to be called innocent that I lost intimacy.

It was only after God pointed this out that I realized many of us had been eating of the tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil.
What shocked me more was these words, “What is sure to follow a platter of eating from this tree, is the sharing of the fruit with others.” “Separation sets in and it’s not long before it leads to finger pointing, calling out accusations & eventually blaming God.”

It’s the age-old story repeating itself.

Going into this annual fast of 2024, the Lord told me to be less aware of what you were going to eat in the natural, but to take careful notice of what you have been eating of, in the spiritual.

The Lord told me, “Should I have eaten from the tree of Life, none of this would have mattered.”

I believe God is calling order to His house. He is inviting his bride to the table. A place has been reserved for you… but He told me that you can not enjoy what He has prepared for you, while the fruit of the tree of Good and Evil is still dripping from your chin.

Excerpt from the book “Journey of the soul”
[Navigating through the Seasons of your life]

In the forth season He said “It’s all about the heart.”

The Lord put emphasis on two kinds of hearts. He said, “A bruised heart will withdraw, while an offended heart will cause division.”

It’s a season of exposure.
…
I often catch myself thinking something contrary to what would be pleasing to Him, something that makes me stop in my tracks. Then I see an image of Jesus standing in front of me and I am able to some how step back, trying to match up the two images… I usually break down in tears confessing that I look nothing like the Son.

Then I adjust my ways, I pray two prayers, one, for the ones I promised Covenant to. And two, for the ones who pledge enmity towards me.

Then I cry out… Lord make me look like Your Son.

Soon after, more stripping away… more tearing off.
…
As I was pondering the thought, God showed me an image of Jesus after the brutal lashing He endured.

For the first time I noticed two things… Firstly, His ribs & organs, exposed. His heart, visible.

Secondly, His mantle removed.

Then God said to me, “In this season, not even your gifting can cover your heart’s intent. Everything becomes revealed.”

SPLINTERS
Crying out one morning in prayer…
“God will You remove the splinters from my back.”
He simply answered
“No. For it’s the evidence that you’ve been carrying your cross.”
…
“Jesus called the crowd together with His disciples, and said to them, “If anyone wishes to follow Me, he must deny himself [set aside selfish interests], and take up his cross and follow Me.”
‭‭Mark‬ ‭8‬:‭34‬ ‭AMP‬

[We are not to believe that we are saved by a Sinner’s prayer or attending a church service.
“But as many as received him…” - Michael Koulianos]

What will carry weight in this season is not your gifting, but your obedience!
Do you want to impact the world?
Deny - pick up - follow {repeat}

FAILED ATTEMPTS!

…falling asleep, late afternoon, feeling exhausted after an impactful weekend… I could not breath. It was as if I was being choked. Suddenly waking up, gasping for air… in that moment I had a vision of broken arrows at my feet.
I heard the well known, often quoted Isaiah 54:17 “No weapon formed against you shall proper;…”

But the word does not stop there, “…and every tongue that rises against you in judgement, you will condemn.”
As I looked at the broken arrows I was aware of God’s intervention in my life.

I want to prophecy over you this day… that you will become a witness to the failed attempts by the enemy in your life.
Praise God today for His divine interventions.
Amen
