Acts 17:26 NKJV And he has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, and has determined their pre-appointed times and the boundaries of their dwellings.
Romans 1:20 NKJV For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse.
Based on Acts 17 v 26 and Romans 1 v 20 – an understanding that God placed tribes and families in specific lands. Each land carries unique revelation of God’s invisible qualities whether it’s the awe and majesty of the Himalayas or the vastness of God experienced for millenia by those in the Pacific islands, or the mystery of the desert. God chose specific peoples to live in those lands to steward and be shaped by the revelation their land carries.
Beautiful diversity and uniqueness is carried deeply in the identity of each people and connected to their lands. And in each land God has gifted resources meant to be turned back in praise to God; conch shells and feathers and turquoise shells etc. Part of the “wealth of nations” intended to be offered by the peoples for God’s glory (Isaiah 60 and 61). But as in Ezekial 16 every people group took what God gifted them and were enticed to use these things for idol worship.
Earlier this year I was praying and had a clear picture of a Pacific island with an evil looking tree growing out of it. Black and shriveled representing a curse. I saw the tree extending very deeply underground to an underground dungeon where the evil roots were intricately entwined around beautiful treasure, holding the treasure captive. There were bars on the doors of the dungeon and inside demons guarding who were mocking with delight. The treasure seemed almost alive, and I could feel deep groans of longing to be released into it’s original purpose, and despair each time the demons mocked.
All of a sudden, I saw Yeshua arrive at the door with a huge smile and a feeling of “at
last” as if He had been waiting for this moment all through human history. The treasure
responded to him with joyful anticipation of release and vindication. Yeshua held up a
huge key and said “It is time!”
As I prayed about this in the days after I understood that Yeshua wants to release every
gift from Pagan practices to be used for His praise, but I remembered stories of cultures
who ended up mixing previous occultic practices with Christianity. The pull of previous
traditions and artistic expression towards idolatry was so strong having been entwined
with it so deeply for so long. I asked God ” is it really possible that you could purify these
things so thoroughly that they could be used purely for your praise and not used to
entice people back to demonic worship?” It seemed so difficult! I felt God said “Will you
just believe that I can do it because of who I am, without knowing how?”
I said “yes” and knelt on the floor and just began to worship Him that He will do it.
An hour or two later I received a message from my pastor Chaya Mizrachi to say it had
just been agreed that many indigenous tribes would be coming to Israel for a
conference to sign a decree to renounce their pagan gods of old and to publicly divorce
their nations from the idols and demonic influences of their past. They will declare that
they belong only to the God of Israel. What a confirmation!
On a later day I saw a picture of a very ancient gate with massive metallic cogs. A key
was turned and as the gate opened I felt a rush of wind and the very strong fear of the
Lord. I saw it go out to the nations and understood that this is something God is about to
release so that nations and the wealth of nations can truly belong to Him as we prepare
for the coming of the Great King. It is time.
