WORD TO THE EARTH, THE NATIONS AND THE CHURCH

Cheryl McGrath, 1st November, 1999

"For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are the sons of God. For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, "Abba, Father". The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then heirs - heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together. For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God. For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it in hope; because the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. For we know that the whole creation groans and labors with birth pangs together until now." Romans 8:19, 22

"Fear not, for I am with you. I will bring your descendants from the east, and gather you from the west, I will say to the north, "Give them up!" And to the south "Do not keep them back!" Bring My sons from afar, and My daughters from the ends of the earth - everyone who is called by My Name, Whom I have created for My Glory. I have formed him, yes I have made him." Isaiah 43:5-7

The Lord said "Prophesy to the earth"

"Look up, oh earth, and see the fulfillment of the promise. Look and see the revelation that comes as the sons of God begin to walk upon you. For this you have waited and longed, and even now, great is your travail, oh earth, as the time of revelation draws near. These are the days in which I will pour out my glory upon you, as My sons and daughters are revealed and sent forth as the divine vessels made ready to pour out the glory I have placed within them, across the face of the earth. And My glory shall be carried by the four winds, east, west, north and south, as it spreads across you, even to the darkest places, even to the places that have been hidden, my glory shall know no bounds and shall not be stopped. It shall flow, it shall flow into all the secret places of the earth because my sons and daughters, the children of glory, shall not be stopped and shall not be hindered from fulfilling my purposes. And as it was in the first days of Adam, once again shall all creation not only wonder, but rejoice, as many sons are brought to glory. So prepare, oh earth, and rejoice, for the days of birth, the days of revelation are coming upon you with haste. Make way, make way, and rejoice, oh earth, at the coming forth of the sons of God!

And the Lord said "Prophesy to the nations"

"Prepare, oh nations, be warned, oh nations, for my army has been summoned, and even now begins to ride. These are the sons of glory, these are the dread champions, these are the mighty men of valor, and before them nations will crumble and fall because I have commissioned each one and each one bears My Name. Make your choices, oh nations! Choose grace, choose redemption, choose holiness, for those who oppose and defy my mighty army will be put to shame and shall not stand. For every knee shall bow to Me and every tongue confess My Lordship upon the face of the earth and in the heavens. Hear Me, and choose wisely oh nations, because the sons of Almighty God are about to be revealed and shall not be held back!

And the Lord said "Prophesy to the Church"

This is what the Lord says to His Bride, His Army, His Sons and Daughters. "Arise! You who have been hidden, you who have been sleeping, you who have been despised and broken. Now is the time of your revelation! The earth and the heavens look on in wonder as I prepare to unveil My best-kept secrets! Prepare the way! Prepare the way! For My Glory shall rise upon you and within you as you are uncovered and manifested to the world. Come My Bride, My Chosen One, now is the time when our betrothal shall be made manifest before the eyes of the world, as you are revealed as My overcoming Bride! For there is much to be done together before the final celebration of our union. Now is the time to make yourself ready. The world waits in both fear and anticipation of your manifestation. For in the former days (the first days of the church), the firstfruits were manifested, but in these latter days, the fullness of your inheritance in Me shall be evident to all, and My Kingdom shall be established once for all. Where you go, My Kingdom shall come, when you speak, you shall be heard, wherever you place your foot, peace shall enter, wherever you place your hands, life shall reign. The blind will see, the deaf will hear, the lame will walk, and the dead shall be restored to life, because your identity will be rooted in faith in Who I Am, and who I say you are, and in nothing else.

So prepare yourself, oh church, all those born of the water and the blood, all those led of My Spirit. All those who have not held back from the fellowship of My sufferings shall share in the power of My resurrection and the inheritance of My Glory. Prepare for the season of your manifestation to the world, My Children. As you fix your eyes upon Me alone, My Spirit shall lead you and anoint you in ever-increasing waves of glory. And so shall be the revelation of the Sons of God upon the earth!"

N.B. *References to the "sons of God' throughout this word should be read in the context of the original Greek word "huios", used in Romans 8:19, and Galatians 3:26, which is also literally translated "child" or "children". That is, the term is not gender specific.
