I Saw Jesus and Our True Destiny Coming Forth
The Finish Line
The Mark of the High Calling in Christ Jesus,
A company that stands on the moon, clothed in the Sun.
1 Corinthians 9:24 (AMPC)
“Do you not know that in a race all the runners compete, but only one receives the prize? So run your race that you may lay hold of the prize and make it yours.”
That one who wins the prize is the spotless bride of Christ.
Romans 12:5 (AMPC)
“So we, numerous as we are, are one body in Christ (the Messiah), and individually we are parts one of another [mutually dependent on one another].”
Ephesians 4:3-10 (AMPC)
“Be eager and strive earnestly to guard and keep the harmony and oneness of the Spirit in the binding power of peace. There is one body and one Spirit, just as there is also one hope that belongs to the calling you received. There is one Lord, one faith, one baptism. One God and Father of all, who is above all, pervading all, and living in us all. Yet grace (God’s unmerited favor) was given to each of us individually, not indiscriminately, but in different ways, in proportion to the measure of Christ’s rich and bounteous gift. Therefore it is said, ‘When He ascended on high, He led captivity captive and bestowed gifts on men.’ But He ascended—what does it mean but that He had previously descended from the heights of heaven into the lower parts of the earth? He who descended is the same as He who also ascended high above all the heavens, that He might fill all things (the whole universe, from the lowest to the highest).”

After some time of prayer last night, I asked the Lord to show me something when I went to bed. I dreamed last night that I saw the finish line—this was the true mark of the high calling in Jesus. I saw the red ribbon like the finish line of a race, and I was standing beside it. Jesus was standing to my right (the Lord at my right hand who loves me). Together, we watched as our students, my spiritual children, each crossed that finish line. The finish line’s red ribbon was reset for each individual so they could have the joy of breaking through it as they won the race and won the prize, which was Jesus Himself, our great reward. Each one, as they ran through, had their hands lifted up in victory praise, like a star athlete breaking through the finish line in all their rejoicing. They had conquered the curse of the fall within their bodies and souls by picking up their cross and following Jesus, even to the depths of their innermost being. They had ascended above the curse of the fall and had overcome all that was in the world and in the heavens through the circumcision of heart—Cosmic Righteousness.
I had gone before them to pioneer the way and make it plain to the disciples, our students, our spiritual children. My great joy was to watch each one joyfully cross that finish line. Even greater was to watch the joy of Jesus, the smile on His face as each precious champion crossed the finish line to receive Him as an overcomer. This was what was pleasing to Him—an Enoch generation of righteous, holy, and elect ones. Each one was a disciple.
As I ran through the finish line as the pioneer and first in this generation to cross that line, and the mother of them all, I looked to Jesus and then raised my right hand into the air, shouting, “Jesus, Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever! Amen.” I struck the air as I declared it with a shout. Then I ran and broke through the finish line, giving Him all the glory, making known the way of the Lord, and establishing the ancient path. Restoring the ancient path, building up the highway of holiness to YHVH, the angel of Jesus Christ within us, the hope of realizing the glory.
After I told Brandon about my encounter last night, we were ready to pay the bill for brunch. The voice of the Lord came to me and said, “Check the table number.” So I asked my husband what table number was on the check, and it was 54. Then I heard Him say, “Isaiah 54.”
Isaiah 54:1-17 (AMPC)
“Sing, O barren one, you who did not bear; break forth into singing and cry aloud, you who did not travail with child! For the spiritual children of the desolate one will be more than the children of the married wife, says the Lord. Enlarge the place of your tent, and let the curtains of your habitations be stretched out; spare not; lengthen your cords and strengthen your stakes. For you will spread abroad to the right hand and to the left; and your offspring will possess the nations and make the desolate cities to be inhabited. Fear not, for you shall not be ashamed; neither be confounded and depressed, for you shall not be put to shame. For you shall forget the shame of your youth, and you shall not seriously remember the reproach of your widowhood any more. For your Maker is your Husband—the Lord of hosts is His name—and the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer; the God of the whole earth He is called. For the Lord has called you like a woman forsaken, grieved in spirit, and heartsore—even a wife wooed and won in youth when she is later refused and scorned, says your God. For a brief moment I forsook you, but with great compassion and mercy I will gather you to Me again. In a little burst of wrath I hid My face from you for a moment, but with age-enduring love and kindness, I will have compassion and mercy on you, says the Lord, your Redeemer. For this is like the days of Noah to Me; as I swore that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth, so have I sworn that I will not be angry with you or rebuke you. For though the mountains should depart and the hills be shaken or removed, yet My love and kindness shall not depart from you, nor shall My covenant of peace and completeness be removed, says the Lord, Who has compassion on you. O you afflicted city, storm-tossed and not comforted, behold, I will set your stones in fair colors and lay your foundations with sapphires. And I will make your windows and pinnacles of sparkling agates or rubies, and your gates of shining carbuncles, and all your walls of precious stones. And all your spiritual children shall be disciples taught by the Lord and obedient to His will, and great shall be the peace and undisturbed composure of your children. You shall establish yourself in righteousness (rightness, in conformity with God’s will and order); you shall be far from even the thought of oppression or destruction, for you shall not fear, and from terror, for it shall not come near you. Behold, they may gather together and stir up strife, but it is not from Me. Whoever stirs up strife against you shall fall and surrender to you. Behold, I have created the smith who blows on the fire of coals and who produces a weapon for its purpose; and I have created the devastator to destroy. But no weapon that is formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue that shall rise against you in judgment you shall show to be in the wrong. This peace, righteousness, security, and triumph over opposition is the heritage of the servants of the Lord—those in whom the ideal Servant of the Lord is reproduced; this is the righteousness or the vindication which they obtain from Me; this is that which I impart to them as their justification, says the Lord.”
