This was given me over 15 years ago.
The part of the lillies was added 3 years ago.
Today - i feel the Lord is saying - "Tell them their buds are beginning to open"

be blessed in Jesus name.

Gods Hidden People

This was written 15 years ago, but I sense that its fulfillment is beginning again NOW



God’s hidden people are those He has placed in those parts of the body that are less usually seen. They are the most sensitive and delicate parts of us and they are those parts that are covered the most. These parts are seemingly “out of the picture” in regards to the eyes of men. Unseen, continually hidden and often unnoticed, as if they were on the back row. But to such as these, He gives them His foremost attention.

He is moreover, sensitive to those parts that are unseen. He gives them His own protective covering and concern and does not embarrass them by exposure. He does not lay them bare. You see there is no shame with Him, but rather a deep respect and love.

Though often unseen by man, these parts are the reproductive parts of the body, the parts that bring forth life and light out into the open. Often through their function he also removes externally the waste. They form a watershed, a crossroads, a meeting place between God and man. They are not just assigned to the back benches, but they are also those that are “in the wings” not sidelined but they are those God uses to furl inward with their wing tips and to cover and to embrace the whole.

They are those as termed in football, “the wingers”, almost as it were “out of play”, for they position themselves so close to the sidelines. They however are the ones that deliver the ball to the places where victory can be achieved.

As I write I see an ordinary shop front, a newsagent, selling many different things. To the side and attached to the shop, I see some steps down, leading to a basement, below the shop. Inside is dark. Another place of Gods hidden grace. A man goes down the steps and enters. He is there a short while and as he emerges and climbs the steps up to ground level and enters the thoroughfare of the street…he has a bunch of white flowers in his arms. Carrying them carefully so as not to bruise and to protect from any buffeting wind.

They look like lilies, white lilies, long stemmed and graceful, their stalks and head, bowing and flexing out like the necks of a swans. They are taken to a home. The stems are already cut and are placed in a clear glass crystal vase, splaying out in splendor as a centre piece of freshness and fragrance.

Not all the buds are open yet, but they will be, they will open out in youthfulness, majesty and modesty, for the flowers have been cut for such a time as this. And chosen to adorn the houses of man and heaven since before all eternity. Not just a single flower, but a bouquet of them.

Fear not little one, you are not forgotten, nor what was or has happened to you been unforeseen or uncontrolled. Time is like light it is allowed to splay and open up the corners of the shadows at the very moment I have chosen it to, for I decided before the sight of man could even comprehend, when it was that it, you would be released. I have timed you to come to my landing place at the speed and place that has long been in my sight.

I have not come to harm or punish you, but rather to release you from the seeming confines you have endured, not in haste, but in plan and concerted effort on many acting on my behalf. Many have no clue of the beauty you bear, the fragrance locked deep in your stalks, but from time to time as the wind may breeze, they have sensed you as I waft the fragrance of you past their faces. Though unseen you have never been unknown, for you are known by me and have been purposed to serve the son of men since before the very earth from which you grew.

Heavens planting ground has been the bough for your head and the rest for your grace. But now is the coming time to display to all, to more the beauty that is envisioned long ago in your call, now is the time to arise that all men may admire the gracious admiration u have given me. And just as you placed yourself before me through many a season and many a drought now I place this one before you and to this have I and will give my all.

Today He writes
Your buds are opening now …now is MY time and MY time is YOUR time.

blessings in Jesus name

I am so inspired and encouraged by your posting, in awe of God's timing. Yesterday as I stood before the altar and danced in worship, a vision of a man on the floor, head bowed, his back to me. I began to intercede for the Holy Spirit to overshadow this one as the LORD had me bend forward in a prophetic enactment my arms coming forward I saw the golden angels on the ark of the covenant and thanked GOD for His mercy seat as I saw them hovering over him. This morning I was reminded of footage I saw yesterday of the captured soldier....something very familiar about him...I believe he was the one I interceded for.

All of this has come about as a result ofthe LORD restoring my ancient wells...as a child I was a dancer and a warrior and those had been 'stopped up' by incidents and circumstances that robbed me of those callings. I would always be in the back but have been overwhelmed with a desire to be up front as close to His presence as I could be. Even now there are times when I feel I should move to the back instead of being up front. But the Lord has been calling me out and when He has I have come...boldly into His presence to usher in the spirit of worship.

It is truly an amazing time to be alive in Christ, a battle axe in His hand, as He continues to teach me of warfare worship and praise.

It is truly a time when He is bringing us forward in victory. We must stand in His TRUTH and not back down.

PRAISE GOD HE IS REVEALING HE IS PREPARING I am listening for the trumpet!

Hi Sandra,

I am glad and joyful that the lord blesses you with the words from the Hidden People - its what really matters along with the fact that HE is glad and joyful as well.

Im reminded of a scene he shared with me

It is a type of banquet, though not modern times and not neccesarily Middle eastern. The guests have had many a course and they are waiting for the next and final one. The Master goes with His servants who wait at the tables and goes through a curtain, into a sevice, kitchen type area.

There on a large silver platter, simple, plain, yet such fine lines ... is a large cheese ... it is not a hard cheese or a veined cheese ... it is a soft cheese, more like a camembert, or brie.

This cheese has been allowed to ripen, in fact BEYOND what health authoroties may deem to be good for it or its consumers. But this cheese has had no additives, and has not been artificialy aged or "helped along" in any way.

As it comes into the main banqueting suite, with all eyes gazing hungrily in expectation, the Master holds back the crimson coloured velvet like curtain, in order that another may bring in this cheese upon its simple but fine salver.

The cheese is almost, almost runny, almost, but yet it is not. It keeps it embodiment and form. Arich aroma is freed from it - for some sitting it is too strong, for others it is tooooooooo delectable and inspiring an aroma to ignore.

We, you and others are like that, we are hidden for a while, yet while it remains hidden the ingredients IN US are active , Love matures and its time held characteristics emerge with the wisdom of the times.

But we will ALWAYS for SOME be not what they are looking for, and this sometimes reflects some of our reasons why we are in a way a bit ok about not being out in the open, racy and young - though for some and Him, that will be fine for who they are and for what it is that the Master maker is perfecting.

But for HIM,you are perfect and he opens you out with joyfull and adoring aplomb, preswenting you OPENLY, no longer hid, just at the right time, in the right places AND - ahead of time because of what he has worked - uses those characteristics weathered IN us to challenge the validity of anothers view of "good taste"

While all along you and he are happy and satisfied. When Lazarus was brought forth from the tomb - the servant cried - Lord he will stink - their response to taking off the grave clothes. yet to the thief on the cross - with hardly ANY time at all to DEVELOP a sense of age or depth, he said today - TODAY - you will be with me in paradise. Paradise is the garden of the King, where His well watered gardens are AND His array of plants and shrubs, bringing FORTH the smell, the odour of HIM.

Being hidden WILL cause you to stink, like the cheese, butNOT in death, but rather WITH LIFE - but inthe process he brings the human fallen grave clothes off and reveals the fragrance of the garden of the King that has always laid within. After all the production of the aroma, comes from the same culture placed within at the start of the maturing process - and that culture is for and OF HIM. For everything that you have encountered in your life, he has encountered and though we may feel its fails us and destroys our life, in fact in HIS LIFE He matched it step for step, stride for stride, and because death could not in the final say HOLD Him, it and His life in you can not be held back either. Fear not little flock itm is the Fathers good pleasure to give you the kingdom. In this world you will have trouble, but fear not, I HAVE OVERCOME the world.

he is able to present you to the father with exceedingly great joy, without spot or wrinkle ... and if I may add Lord ... without foul or offensive smell...lol

I just noticed this post today -- it really encouraged me! It linked several things the Lord has spoken to me. :)

The King IS among His lilies -- this is where the shepherd pastures His flock! It is also where the Bride buds - spreading her wings to arise and join in union with her lover!

This is especially encouraging because before I was led here, being surrounded by famine and drought were on my heart ...

Jeremiah 14:4 Because the ground is *cracked, For there has been no rain on the land; The farmers have been put to shame, They have covered their heads.

The drought is so severe that the ground is cracked --- I noticed this because it's the same word for discouraged in

Joshua 1:9 Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be *discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.

The Lord seems to be saying to me today, tho this is a time of great drought, famine and sword --- judgement. It is also a time of the releasing of His lilies. There is also a warning to let the sword test & prepare your heart.

Jeremiah 14:14 Then the LORD said to me, "The prophets are prophesying lies in my name. I have not sent them or appointed them or spoken to them. They are prophesying to you false visions, divinations, idolatries [a] and the delusions of their own minds. 15 Therefore, this is what the LORD says about the prophets who are prophesying in my name: I did not send them, yet they are saying, 'No sword or famine will touch this land.' Those same prophets will perish by sword and famine. 16 And the people they are prophesying to will be thrown out into the streets of Jerusalem because of the famine and sword. There will be no one to bury them or their wives, their sons or their daughters. I will pour out on them the calamity they deserve.

Jeremiah 15:19-20 Therefore this is what the LORD says:
"If you repent, I will restore you that you may serve me;
if you utter worthy, not worthless, words,
you will be my spokesman.
Let this people turn to you, but you must not turn to them.

20 I will make you a wall to this people, a fortified wall of bronze;
they will fight against you but will not overcome you,
for I am with you to rescue and save you,"
declares the LORD.

Among the Lilies

And the stately lilies stand
Fair in silvery light
Like saintly vestals, pale in prayer;
Their pure breath sanctifies the air,
As its fragrance fills the night. — Julia C.R. Dorr


Song 1:7
"Tell me, O you whom my soul loves, where do you pasture your flock?
Where do you make it lie down at noon?"



The lover of my soul
His face turns; shines on the lilies.


My beloved is mine, and I am His; He pastures His flock among the lilies.
--Song 2:16


The lilies white, pure
-- without spot or wrinkle they stand in the light of His face
They stand thru the night midst songs of deliverance --Ps 32:7; 42:8
And the incense of fragrant prayer. --Ps 141:2
Fragrance, the aroma of life poured out --2 Cor 2:15
From a garden enclosed; a fountain sealed; a well of living waters
--Song 4:12,16

A strong perfume carried on the wind; fills the air.



"Where has your beloved gone, O most beautiful among women? Where
has your beloved turned, that we may seek Him with you?"

"My beloved has gone down to His garden, to the beds of spices, to
pasture His flock in the gardens and gather lilies."

"I am my beloved's and my beloved is mine." --Song 6:1-3



The lover of my soul
He has gone down to His garden
To the bed of fragrant spices
To pasture His flock and gather the lilies.

IT'S TIME TO GATHER THE LILIES.



____________________________________________________________ _________

Song 2:16-17
"My beloved is mine, and I am His; He pastures His flock among the
lilies."

"Until the day breaks and the shadows flee away, turn, my beloved, and
be like a gazelle or a young stag upon the mountains of Bether."

Song 2:2
"Like a lily among the thorns, so is my darling among the maidens."

Song 7:2(Lover to Beloved)
Your navel is a rounded goblet; It lacks no liquor(mixd wine). Your belly is
a heap of wheat encirlced about with lilies.

____________________________________________________________ _________

Where the lilies are gathered
In their midst - a heap of wheat!
A plentiful harvest capable of feeding many.

There is goblet with mixed wine, which is intoxicating,
Filled and used for joyous celebration
And rivers of living water!


He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his belly will
flow rivers of living water. --Jn 7:38


What a beautiful picture among the lilies!
No wonder He pastures His flock among the lilies.

The lover of my soul
He has gone down to His garden
To the bed of fragrant spices
To pasture His flock and gather the lilies!



IT'S TIME TO GATHER THE LILIES.!!!!


Hebrews 10:23-25
Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who
promised is faithful. And let us consider one another in order to stir up
love and good works, not forsaking our own assembling together, as is
the habit of some, but encouraging one another; and all the more as
you see the day drawing near

Arise Beautiful One, My Fair One

During worship the image of spreading your wings while waiting on the Lord to be ’saturated’ with His presence was impressed on me. I thought it was the eagle from Isaiah 40 — anticipating the wind to ’soar’ BUT it was the dove!!! The image of the bride — budding, blooming spreading her wings in anticipation of the union with the bridegroom! IT IS TIME FOR LOVE, TIME TO FLY INTO HIS WAITING ARMS.

The Beloved to Her Lover:
Song 7:12 Let us rise early and go to the vineyards; Let us see whether the vine has *budded{flourished} and its blossoms have opened, and whether the pomegranates have bloomed. There I will give you my love.
___________________________________________________
From: http://net.bible.org/verse.php?book=Sos ... 7&verse=12
*flourished – parach [06524]
a primitive root; to break forth as a bud, i.e. bloom;
generally, to spread; specifically, to fly (as extending the
wings); figuratively, to flourish:-X abroad, X abundantly,
blossom, break forth (out), bud, flourish, make fly, grow,
spread, spring (up).

This is beautiful …

Image

The Lover to His Beloved:

Song 2:13 The fig tree has ripened its figs, and the vines in blossom have given forth their fragrance. ‘Arise, my darling{love}, my beautiful{fair} one, and come away!’

The time to arise and come away
The time to be joined in love and union with the Bridegroom
The time when the flowers burst forth and appear on the earth
The blossoms flourish, opening spreading their wings
A sweet fragrance fills the air, the whole house is filled -Jn 12:3
The time of singing has come.

Spread your wings, arise beautiful one, My fair one and come away!

Who are these who fly like a cloud,
…and like doves to their *roosts? –Isa 60:8
Who shine with the Lord’s glory? –Isa 60:1-3

My dove, you are called Hephzibah [My delight is in her]
My beautiful one you are a crown of glory
A royal diadem in My hand
As the bridegroom rejoices over the bride
So I AM rejoices over you.

O my dove, in the clefts of the rock, In the secret places of the cliff, Let me see your face, Let me hear your voice; For your voice is sweet, And your face is lovely. –Song 2:14

Spread your wings, arise beautiful one, My fair one and come away!
The time of singing has come
The time of love has come
The time to fly into the Bridegrooms waiting arms
The time of union is here.



Isaiah 62:3-5 You shall also be [so beautiful and prosperous as to be thought of as] a crown of glory and honor in the hand of the Lord, and a royal diadem [exceedingly beautiful] in the hand of your God. You [Judah] shall no more be termed Forsaken, nor shall your land be called Desolate any more. But you shall be called Hephzibah [My delight is in her], and your land be called Beulah [married]; for the Lord delights in you, and your land shall be married [owned and protected by the Lord]. For as a young man marries a virgin [O Jerusalem], so shall your sons marry you; and as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride, so shall your God rejoice over you.

Isaiah 60:8 Who are these who fly like a cloud, and like doves to their *roosts?

___________________________________________________
From: http://net.bible.org/verse.php?book=isa ... 60&verse=8
*roosts – ‘arubbah [0699]
feminine participle passive of 693 (as if for lurking); a
lattice; (by implication) a window, dove-cot (because of the
pigeon-holes), chimney (with its apertures for smoke), sluice
(with openings for water):-chimney, window.
see HEBREW for 0693

Great post! Thank you for your faithful stand on God's Word. I can relate to your post.

When I was 16 yrs old (born again at around age 6), I had a word of prophecy spoken over me by a Pastor... in part, the Word was: "I have kept you as a coccoon...". In January 2009, I was told via a holy spirit inspired dream: "get ready to fly; in March, 2009 - via prophecy - I was told that my coccoon was open; in April, that my butterfly was out of the coccoon; In May, that my butterfly was getting ready to fly. That flight is starting to take place... especially since the end of May... I am now 48 years old.

God's timetable may not be our timetable... but, if we are faithful, willing, and open to His Word and direction, We will ALWAYS see His Word come to pass in our lives.

NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER GIVE UP!

Wow what a WORD Father, Your timing always so perfect, precise! For years our testimony was we have been placed in the
'Cave of Adullem' as David & his company had been till his time...someone said to me that indeed Father kept him hidden from Saul & those pursueing his life, for it was not his time yet to rule Israel, but Abba brought him out when He wanted David to go to WAR!

King David, was always victorius, winning every battle w/the Mighty power of Yahweh working thru him!

How fitting that word was b/c it fit us also, like a designer's glove...indeed He has always had a remnant of saints who will not bow their kness to the false one (s)...many battles have been won only b/c Greater is HE in US then he who is in the world!
And 'we' ain't seen nothing yet! Daniel says, we shall do great exploits! In HIS POWER!

The word on "Yahweh's Hidden People" each word, each line describes how 'we' have felt @ one time or another, how soothing, healing & life-giving to hear them, thank YOU Father for speaking thru Your Holy Body! Like a balm, like fresh oil being poured upon our heads, for they are the hidden manna He teaches us about, 'things' stored up ready to be brought forth thru those He has preserved, reserved for such a moment as this! Hallelujah! \o/

This week end i was honored to attend FT, my description as we were driving home was, "FT is like a 'hidden, secret pocket', i saw this small, fine pocket,".... i said 'its like a hidden precious pocket hidden in HIS ROBES, like in a man's suit there are pockets hidden from view but nonetheless, there, He knows, it's a pocket that is close to His Heart'....A secret compartment, concealed, where something so precious must be guarded, watched over, kept SECURED (like a safe)...

Also, while standing inside FT near the display of Brother Bill's 'stone's representing the 12 tribes (O my my my)...
Yes, i said to my new friend who brought me there, Prophets are the guts, of the body, it takes 'guts' to stand & speak forth His declarations, decrees & WORD, also the 'guts' represent the most inner parts of man, the inward parts which are "HIDDEN" where firey passions are set aflame to bring His Fire, where our passion for HIM, His will, His ways, His words come forth,
'Are birthed'...

The "Guts" are what makes us Stand Up & Proclaim who HE is! It takes 'guts' to stand & fight for righteousness, holiness, to come against all evil....Guts! Ya, got to love them! W/O them the body cannot, will not function properly! O Glory for the most hidden Precious Parts of Messiah's Glorius Beautiful Holy BODY!

We have to have them in these times, and in the times ahead...His Children will have them! Some have them now & those who He has hidden are growing huge ones, every test, every trial, every challenge is building them into a Warrior for the Master Warrior, the KING YAHWEH! For His Kingdom!

Blessings, Dear Guts, Blessings be upon YOU!
YOU HIDDEN ONES!
Don't ya just love how Papa plays hide & seek w/us? He's AWESOME!
I worship YOU MOST HIGH ONE LOVING PERFECT ONE< YAHWEH< ABBA< PAPA!

Shema Israel (a hidden one) \o/

There Lord put this verse on my heart as I read:

Quote:
dont be held back
your tent pegs are not fastened in the ground, nor is the hem of your garment


Psalm 18:19
He also brought me out into a *broad{wide open} place; He delivered me because He delighted in me.


*broad - merchab [04800]
enlargement, to be or grow large, widen
Broad or roomy PASTURE

My beloved is mine, and I am His; He pastures His flock among the lilies.
--Song 2:16

The Beloved to Her Lover:
Let us rise early and go to the vineyards; Let us see whether the vine has *budded{flourished} and its blossoms have opened, and whether the pomegranates have bloomed. There I will give you my love. --Song 7:12

The Lover to His Beloved:
The fig tree has ripened its figs, and the vines in blossom have given forth their fragrance. ‘Arise, my darling{love}, my beautiful{fair} one, and come away!’ --Song 2:13


Arise My dove
Spread your wings in anticipation of My wind
Let go of the ground
Come away
Be drawn in My cords of love -Hos 11:4
To a wide open place
Beside still water
In green pastures -Ps 23:2
You will be fed with the finest wheat.

O my dove, in the clefts of the rock, In the secret places of the cliff, Let me see your face, Let me hear your voice; For your voice is sweet, And your face is lovely. –Song 2:14

My dove, you are called Hephzibah [My delight is in her]
Spread your wings, arise beautiful one, My fair one and come away!
The time of singing has come
The time of love has come
The time to fly into the Bridegrooms waiting arms
The time of union is here.
