Wisdom and I sit under the tree of life upon the land beneath Michael’s calf.
Above us the impacts of the hammer against the invisible dome over the town across the river make the air shimmer with each shot.
Wisdom:
“You were to meet the spirit of council today but you are too distracted. What ails you Abdiel?”
Me:
“I invited certain friends to pray and worship with me but they denied me three times. I understand the context of their denial though and I do not feel rejected. I love these friends dearly and they are a great blessing to the kingdom.
I am just slightly saddened that Gatherer has set a directive where I cannot be in relationship with people who turn down a request to pray with me. These are really great servants of God!”
Wisdom:
“Call upon Gatherer so that you may receive understanding and be at peace.”
Me:
“Azrael!”
Gatherer suddenly speaks from beside me:
Gatherer:
“I am here son of sorrow, and I know why you call.
Come, stand beside me so that you may receive revelation in your full authority as Courier.
You are filled with love and grace and mercy and desire to befriend every person on this earth. You love the potential that you see in others and work hard to see that potential fully manifest. It is thus with all good leaders and the kingdom of God has many!
But a good leader with a big heart is also a vulnerable leader. For the enemy is able to wreak massive damage amongst the sheep when he is able to discourage a single leader.
This is why clever leaders keep their circles small, so that they may have the energy to lead passionately and be consistently encouraged to walk in confident love.
You are courier. You are able to see and receive messages directly from heaven and communicate all that you see effectively with understanding. You are one in billions.
A good leader knows that he needs people around him that are one in spirit but as Courier you should know that it is even more important for you to be surrounded by those who understand the weight upon you.
It is a challenge for us who are assigned to you that you do not realize the gravity of your role on this earth. Obedience comes so easily to you that you do not take this calling seriously.
Listen with your heart son of sorrow: Every person is special in a particular way and you are special in this particular calling. To raise, prepare, train and communicate with a courier takes a human lifetime to accomplish. Most cannot handle the fire that they have to pass through. They fall apart at the first rejection. It took six massive betrayals to break you and even in your broken state you did not slow your pace.
My heart was shaken by how the third betrayal hurt you so that you no longer even desired to live. Keeping you alive so that you may be courier took war on a scale that you will only understand when you finish this race.
Multiple times each day, for ten years, we had to find legal loopholes to stay your hand from taking your own life. Thousands of angels fell in battle so that you might fulfil your assignment.
Prophets and intercessors laid down their blueprints to keep you alive. Strategies had to be changed because you became so bitter against the body of Christ that we had to keep you away from it until you were ready to become courier. Still you did not slow down.
We had to stop mammon from blessing you because you were rising to power so fast on the entertainment mountain. We had to send angels into the darkness to go and fetch you because believers would no longer come for you. Your influence over other believers was so strong that even those who went to you were corrupted with your bitterness.
We had to corner you and isolate you in a small town lest you become an agent of hell on the world stage.
And then, when you accepted your role as courier, we removed you from the memories of all who might dissuade you.
Even then, alone in a Caravan with very few friends and family, your influence was still too much. You had to sacrifice your phone and your public social media profile so that we could isolate you further. For one wrong seed in your ear could take root and produce a harvest that would have you walking away from your assignment as Courier and from God Himself.
You do not understand the gravity of your calling son of sorrow. It is thus with the vast majority of believers. They do not know the gravity of their callings.
All are special and all have special considerations to function at their utmost potential. In your case it is prayer. We keep you focused in prayer so that your heart and mind are completely focused on being courier. Your assignment upon this earth is to record all that you see so that an entire generation may be freed from the shackles of false coverings and false spiritual fathers.
Those who do not recognize you as courier must not have access to you. Neither must you have covenant of any type with them. Their race is different, their path is just as special as yours and they are as focused on the will of God as you are – some even more so – but covenant with such will cause you to doubt your assignment.
Thus if they do not pray with you when you invite them, you must break covenant with them.
You must steward this talent with all your heart son of sorrow. You must protect the gift that you have been given.
Let all who read what is recorded take heed:
Look after the gifts that heaven bestows upon you, cherish them, steward them. For they are God’s gift to the body through you.
For God so loved the world that He gave his only son, and He continues to give the world His servants. For you are all a gift from God so that none should perish.
Steward your gifts for they are the hope of the world.”
Wisdom:
“I know that this is not pleasant for you Abdiel.”
Me:
“I think exclusivism sucks. To only be in relationship with those who pray with me when I ask them to feels manipulative and controlling to me. I don’t like it at all.”
Wisdom:
“A wise man sees what others do not see. And though he might see what others do not see, it will not always be up to him to open their eyes. It is much wiser to allow your friends to form relationships with those to whom they will listen. For those who do not recognize you in your role as courier will receive nothing from you. This is not about you rejecting or controlling people Abdiel, this is about the most effective strategies to get believers to arrive at their assignments.
For all of heaven works with every believer to bring them to the perfect will of God. And it is best that they are where it is easiest to open their ears.
It is selfish to keep those around you who do not receive from you. You must pray that they will find relationships that take them towards their blueprints. For a relationship that keeps people stagnant in their faith is a terrible relationship.
And to have people around you who not believe in your blueprint is very dangerous. For the foolish council of a loving friend can wreak the most damage.”
Gatherer:
“Heed the words of the spirit of wisdom son of sorrow. You must not become discouraged in your role as courier. It is not the enemies of the kingdom who are the greatest threat, but close friends who love you but do not recognize you as courier. For loving council from a loving friend can wreak the most havoc on a believer’s calling.
Many who have the best intentions have ripped our greatest champions from the path of destiny. Simply communicating their lack of faith as a friend has destroyed the ministries of evangelists who were called to bring millions to the kingdom.
This after a lifetime of angelic intervention to raise up champions.
Let all who read what you record take heed:
The council of a friend is dangerous. Seek first the council of the Holy Spirit and the words of the Son. Do not yoke yourself to unbelievers, for many who profess to believe do not believe. How then can you call someone who does not believe a believer?
No courier, those who walk upon the land beneath Michael’s calf must first consider you courier, then friend.
Protect what has come at so great a cost. Teach others to do the same with the gifts that they have been given.
Be a wise steward of your gifts and teach others to do the same!
Though every relationship is an opportunity to share God, not every relationship is from God. Some are for a season, others are a test that people must pass. If they fail it with you they must pass it with someone else.
For a prophet is without honor in his own city and if they do not receive you as prophet they cannot receive the prophet’s reward.
But rejoice that they may find prophets whom they recognize so that they may find fullness of joy in their obedience to God.
Familiarity is a dangerous thing son of sorrow. Do not become so used to your assignment that you forget to protect it and do not allow relationships that cause you to doubt your calling.
Seek first the kingdom and every special relationship shall be added to you!
The kingdom is all son of sorrow!”
Me:
“I understand, I shall steward my gift and teach others to steward theirs. The kingdom is all!”
I wake up.
