The Word of the Day is Reconciliation
Manage episode 318658790 series 3308761
As a frame of reference, I am recording this during the first week of August, 2021. Earlier this week while I was praying in the Spirit I began to hear a prophetic word. Holy Spirit is announcing, “The word of the day is “reconciliation.”
As I have meditated on this word, I have discovered some insights I really must share with you.
I want to begin by dissecting the key concepts of this prophetic word.
The WORD of the day is reconciliation. The WORD…
When I say the “word” of the day, it reminds me of The Apostle John’s message in the Book of Revelation to the seven churches in Asia Minor. God is speaking. To some it may seem that He is silent, but He is not. As in the day of John the Revelator, He is speaking to the Churches. I believe that God has a message for the Body of Christ today. To this I can only add, He who has an ear to hear, let him hear what the Spirit is saying.
Next, the word of the DAY is reconciliation. The key concept here is “DAY.”
If you study the Biblical meaning of the word “day” in Vine’s Expository Dictionary of New Testament Word’s, day does not always refer to a 24 hour period of time. Vines tells us that it can indicate “a period of undefined length marked by certain characteristics.” Such as “the day of small things in Zechariah 4:10; a period of time characterized by perplexity and distress in Isaiah 17:11. There is a time called “a day of salvation” in Isaiah 49:8…and the list could go on. So, when I say “The word of the day,” Holy Spirit is not limiting the application of the word that follows to a specific 24 hour time period, but it applies to a time and season and the characteristics of that period of time.
In the phrase, The word of the day is reconciliation, Holy Spirit is addressing and emphasizing a characteristic that Father God wants to see manifested in His children during this season of time. Reconciliation is a remedy the Great Physician has prescribed for the Church and for all humanity alive on planet earth at this time in history.
So, Holy Spirit is telling us that the word He is emphasizing at this time is Reconciliation.
The word of the day is RECONCILIATION. And The final concept in this prophetic word is RECONCILIATION.
So, let’s begin to unpack this word. This is not intended to be a comprehensive study on the topic of reconciliation. It will focus on what I sense are the key elements that Holy Spirit would emphasize now. There is more revelation stirring in my spirit, but we will see if Holy Spirit will have me share that possibly in future podcasts.
But, for today, let’s dig into some of the things the Bible says about reconciliation by turning to 2 Corinthians 5:17-19. I am going to read from The Voice Bible…
17 Therefore, if anyone is united with the Anointed One, that person is a new creation. The old life is gone—and see—a new life has begun!
18 All of this is a gift from our Creator God, who has pursued us and brought us into a restored and healthy relationship with Him through the Anointed. And He has given us the same mission, the ministry of reconciliation, to bring others back to Him.
19 It is central to our good news that God was in the Anointed making things right between Himself and the world. This means He does not hold their sins against them. But it also means He charges us to proclaim the message that heals and restores our broken relationships with God and each other.
