On the January 6th blog, I was lead to write,
“Maybe we’ll understand more by January 21st?”
I was alerted just today to the fact that January 21st, 12121, was a palindrome date, and apparently there won’t be another for 1000 years!”
Here are three things God High-LIGHT-ed to me, from our lived 12121 experience.
1. ON 12121
A first song was released by our first born son, Robin, from his album, called “The City of Light” (Link above)
Several years ago I was on a flight from MSP to O’Hare. We rarely watch movies at home, so I often use flights to ‘catch up’ on what is currently showing……or rather ‘being shown’ – as ‘everything prophecies.’
On this occasion I found myself watching, “The Hunger Games.”
On the screen in front of me was pictured a skyline of a derelict apocalyptic city where the drama was set, at some point in the future.
As our plane banked to prepare for landing, I looked up and glanced out the window. There in front of me, in real life, was the same skyline, that I had just been looking at, on the screen – it was Chicago!!!
I tucked this ‘God incidence’ away in my memory.
2. ON 12121
I saw this ‘Not a coincidence‘ image, and God brought back my Chicago memory!
The Hunger Games reflects a future world where power and control rest with a cruel, elite, oligarchy who are entertained by a ‘game’ where the ‘hungry’ commoners are pitted against one another in a struggle to survive.
The picture on the left is of one of these ‘elite’. The picture on the right is of Lady Gaga as she was dressed to sing “The Star Spangled Banner” at the ‘inauguration’ on the 20th.
Robin’s song begins.
“I’ll give you the cash….then I’ll send you the bill.”
This I took as a poetically cryptic summary of the world we are fast being ushered into
….the illusion of a Communist utopia…in reality a Totalitarian dystopia.
…..so, was Lady Gaga mocking the common people, who are ‘being played’?
In my last two blogs I was lead to reference Juan O Savin who in an interview subsequent to “The Called – Makings of a Perfect Day” said not to be surprised if Joe Biden was inaugurated.
He then talked about how people who have a had a ‘near death experience’ have returned from heaven (or hell!) AWAKENED to reality! He then spoke about America going through a ‘near death’ experience.
Another line from Robin’s song that was highlighted to me was
“You have to be attached before the cross comes down”
This spoke to me of how we have to be willing to be identified with Christ in his suffering and death before we can participate in his resurrection life.
This song arises out of Robin’s painful but transformative ‘near death experience’ over the last several years. This can apply at a personal and a corporate level
The song then ends full of HOPE!
“And we’re not going to wake up until we get our three day rest
……..it’s only GRACE that’s left.”
3. ON 12121
We received that morning a text from a lady we had prayed for the night before.
“Words cannot express how grateful I am for you two. I woke up feeling like a completely different person. Even this morning , how I viewed things that I would normally experience through a rejected spirit is gone. I felt like a complete miracle has taken place in so many ways.”
Robin sings, “It’s gonna make you spin….the world that you once knew…..renewed and born again.”
On January 6th I blogged
“No matter who ends up in the White House….. GODSELECTION will inevitably involve FATHERSCORRECTION.”
“The City of Light” was a visionary statement made by the Founding Fathers describing the destiny of the USA.
As we embrace personally and corporately the discipline of the Father who delights in us, and journey through the ‘dark night of the soul‘ toward “The City of Light” we know we need ‘fear no evil….. for you are with me.‘(Ps.23)
Then when we finally ‘turn around and reflect‘ we will be amazed at the ‘beauty and bounty‘ that has followed us each and every day of our lives….and has brought us to ‘dwell in the house of the Lord’…..with our Father, ‘forever’.
“Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade. This inheritance is kept in heaven for you, who through faith are shielded by God’s power until the coming of the salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time.”
(1 Peter 1:3-5 NIV)
“The Storm of the Lord” may still be upon us.
………but the best is yet to come.
