The Lord Disciplines The One He Loves – [Proclamation #22]

This prophecy from the Lord was given to me whilst I was in prayer on August 2nd 2024.

The Lord began this day to show me what life in the restored Israel will be like. His word says that when He will bring us back, we will be His people and He will be our God and He – Himself – will be our king and will rule over us. This vision was a look into that reality and time.

“The Lord disciplines the one He loves”

I received this vision whilst I was at a prayer camp with a group of people from different nations. We were praying 10 hours a day for 10 days. Whilst I was in the church building where this was happening, the Lord told me that He had something to show me.

Usually, when the Lord tells me this in advance, it means that it is not an open-eyed vision but I must be still and focused to be able to see it with clarity. So I sat down and bent forward, pressing my upper body against my thighs, I then bowed my head and closed my eyes to wait upon the Lord, for Him to show me what He desired. 

As I was in that posture during the prayer service, one woman who was just a row behind me got very passionate about her prayer and began to shout out her prayers in tongues. When I say shout out, I mean SCREAM! Whilst this woman was praying this way, I was sucked into this vision by the Lord.

The vision began with a group of people in a temple, people of all races, ages and sexes, and I was one of them. I was standing on my feet with my hands lifted to the Lord. The Lord gave me the knowledge in my spirit that this was His temple in Jerusalem, however, it did not look like what the temple would look like in those days. So it was only a representation of the temple.

We were deeply engaged in praising Yah and praying to Him. Amid this praise and prayer, a woman behind me broke out in tongues in the middle of the assembly, she was SCREAMING prayers to the Lord. This woman was screaming prayers to the LORD the same way the woman behind me in the physical church was.

Both women in the physical realm and the spirit realm are praying very loudly in tongues, it was the same voice and the same words being uttered at the same time, but one of them was in the church where I was praying so my physical ears could hear her, and the other was in the vision the Lord was giving me of the temple in the restored Israel so my spiritual ears could hear her in that vision.

It was spectacular, inexplicable and very memorable. As I write this I can still hear her voice resound in my left ear.

So the Lord Jesus Christ used this woman’s fellowship with Him in the spirit through her tongues that was happening in the physical church I was in to orchestrate an indescribable experience. It happens to me often that during an event the Lord would make my eyes and ears operate past the physical, and see and hear what is happening spiritually simultaneously – but it was never anything like this.

Back to the vision. So as this woman was praying and crying out to God in the temple, the entire atmosphere was lifted and other people also began to pray and sing louder, we were ascending in the spirit. Then my point of view in the vision began to move. Though I could still see myself standing there praying to the Lord, my eyes were simultaneously patrolling the temple in other sections.

I was looking from bench to bench, observing people pray and worship the Lord. I arrived at a place where there was a group of young girls who were whispering things in each other’s ears and mocking the woman who was praying loudly in our midst – yes, her voice was resounding throughout the temple. They were looking, laughing, whispering things to each other, looking at the woman, then laughing again. They found her ridiculous in her unrestrained expression of prayer to the Lord.

As soon as these young girls began chuckling under their breath, they were called out by Yah Himself. In this vision, the presence of the Lord was at the front centre of the temple, on the altar. The altar was not a flat platform where a pastor stood to preach, but the altar was the presence of God Himself. The way I saw Him represented on this altar was with a Light.

So for you to better understand this, it was not a person’s lips that spoke their names, but it was THE ALTAR of the Lord that summoned them, calling them out by name and asking them to come forward. 

As they were making their way to stand before the altar, the Lord was scolding them about their mockery. At that moment, the praying and praise stopped and the entire assembly in the temple was watching and could hear every word. The Lord was scolding them about their mocking tongues and said that they mocked HIM – not the woman. They were commanded to get on their knees and repent immediately so that He would not unleash His wrath upon them then and there.

These girls hurried and fell to their knees and bowed before the Lord’s altar and began to confess and repent of their sins. 

This is where the vision ended. 

I opened my eyes and pulled out my notebook to write down what I had just seen, and that blessed woman behind me was still praying her loud prayers in tongues that my left ear still remembers and will probably never forget.

Scripture

The banner scripture the Lord gave me for this prophecy is Ezekiel 36: 33-36.

³³ ‘Thus says the Lord God: “On the day that I cleanse you from all your iniquities, I will also enable you to dwell in the cities, and the ruins shall be rebuilt. ³⁴ The desolate land shall be tilled instead of lying desolate in the sight of all who pass by. ³⁵ So they will say, ‘This land that was desolate has become like the garden of Eden; and the wasted, desolate, and ruined cities are now fortified and inhabited.’ ³⁶ Then the nations which are left all around you shall know that I, the Lord, have rebuilt the ruined places and planted what was desolate. I, the Lord, have spoken it, and I will do it.”

1- The Lord in His love is providing us with insight into what our lives with Him as our God and us as His people in the restored Israel will look like.

2- The desolation will come to an end, the barren land will be no more, and the nations of the earth will know that this is what the Lord has done.

3- As He cleanses us of all our sins and resettles us in our towns, we will be completely reconciled to Him.

4- The scripture speaks about being restored to the Garden of Eden which is that place where God and Man are one and that is exactly what I observed in this vision. 

5- We were spending time in the Lord’s temple in praise and worship which was pure and pleasing to Him. As we prayed in that large assembly, Yah was exalted and magnified.

6- There was no conflict between the people, on the contrary, it was an atmosphere of oneness and peace in the presence of the Lord. This is what awaits those who will endure and prove worthy of Jesus Christ.

7- The Lord will surely fulfil His word when He says that we will be His people and He will be our God, and that Israel will be like Eden.

8- Just like we read that God walked and talked to Adam in the cool of the day in Eden, in this vision, the Lord’s very own presence – His being was in the temple WITH US, He addressed us directly and we could all hear Him – from the youngest to the oldest.

9- No longer will the Lord be far away from us in a way that we will struggle to reach Him but He will be living among us and be our Father. The Father who disciplines those whom He loves, as He disciplined those little girls in the temple.

10- It is clear from the vision that these girls were much younger than the rest of the people in the temple, they were in their early teens. These were children who were still at an age where they were learning Yah’s ways. He saw them drifting away into sin and brought them back to righteousness immediately then and there and they reacted to it with humility and sincerity by falling prostrate before Him and repenting.

11- There was no rebellion in these children, they felt bad for their deeds and realised their mistake. They reacted to the Father’s discipline and embraced it as love. This is what we can expect from the coming Israel that the Lord promised.

12- This prophecy also reminds us of the fact that the Lord hates the mocking tongue. He hates it, especially when it is aimed at one of His servants.

13- You all who like to look at God’s messengers and mock them, or God’s true servants, teachers and pastors and belittle them in your comments and conversations both online and offline, you better act like these young girls had the wisdom to act and immediately repent of your sin.

14- If you are accustomed to mocking people whom you perceive as lower than you, or any person for any reason whatsoever, the Lord HATES THIS BEHAVIOUR.

15- He is summoning you right now to the altar as you read this to give an account and you better do so and repent before He applies the judgement for your sin upon you by allowing Satan to strike you because of your lack of repentance.

16- You cannot be playing with sin in these end times, the cup of God’s wrath for the earth is full, and things are not the same in these times.

17- It is this kind of meekness and humility of God’s people before Him that will give birth to the scripture that the Lord gave for this prophecy in Ezekiel 36: 33-36. This is what awaits us here on the earth in this generation, this is NOT the New Jerusalem that comes out of the sky. 

18- Is such oneness with God not worthy of paying the type of price that Matthew 10 talks about? Or enduring the persecution and surviving the environment that Daniel 12 and Matthew 24 talk about?

19- This is the type of fruit that the Lord awaits from us. To me, it is definitely worth it and I will pay whatever price needs to be paid to walk in holiness and righteousness unto the Lord even if the entire world despises me and wants to kill me for it. 

20- Brethren, may we plough our fields now so that we will be able to endure till the end to see and experience the Lord’s promise for Israel and His church, according to His will.
