VISION & WORD OF THE LORD:
In the Spirit, I saw volumes of books (scrolls) coming together suddenly in the realm of the spirit. A strong wind was blowing them, and I knew it was the breath of God. They weren’t blowing randomly, but in an orderly — directed manner. These books were old and weathered; yet porous and strong. I knew that this represented that the wisdom inside was PROVEN, TRIED and TESTED. They were numbered by volume — and could be counted into the thousands. This “weathering” immediately reminded me of knowing Father as the “Ancient of Days” — as in Daniel 7.
In a split second, all the prophetic releases that He’d spoken through His scribal prophets (and other ministers) were bound in books — ready to be heard, digested, distributed and searched out. But there was something expressly important about the Prophet’s books. Then I heard the word, VOLUMES, and this short word of prophecy came forth:
“Tell my scribal prophets to gather the volumes,” says the Lord. “Tell them to gather the scrolls that they have written of me. Gather the VOLUMES!”
There was such an urgency in the Spirit to release this message. It was as if Father wanted them/us to know HOW IMPORTANT and HOW PRECIOUS were HIS WORDS entrusted them.
PROPHETIC INSIGHT:
Father amplified the word VOLUME to me in three ways:
1. Meaning the sound of His voice that is being raised in the earth as we speak forth or speak out those things that He places in our mouths.
Deuteronomy 18:18 CJB says, “I will raise up for them a prophet like you from among their kinsmen. I will put my words in his mouth, and he will tell them everything I order him.”
2. Meaning, a bound book.
2 Timothy 4:13 says, “When you come, bring the coat which I left with Carpus in Troas, also the scrolls and especially the parchments.”
3. Meaning, as in the amount of a space or what is contained in that space.
Psalm 81:10 CJB says, “I am ADONAI your God, who brought you up from the land of Egypt. Open your mouth, and I will fill it.”
Prophets, it’s time to go into YOUR archives and GATHER those words Father has blown through you over the years. It’s time to order them by date and bind them in a TANGIBLE book. It’s time to reread what you’ve received and allow Holy Spirit to unveil the secrets to you that were not previously available. Father wants to reveal himself to YOU in a greater way in what has already been written and open up greater revelation. He wants to release these volumes of wisdom to those assigned to them. Father is saying to me even now, “These books are also bound in Heaven.”
In the list above, Father gave me three definitions by Holy Spirit. Take a closer look at them:
1. These volumes will speak “out loud” as a trumpet. (Demonstration and application also applies here.);
2. These volumes will serve as a written witness, reference and proof as things in them come to pass and are revealed;
3. These volumes are FULL, taking up space to a point of overflowing and must be released into the ears of those whom Heaven desires to hear them.
Father is saying that as the prophets organize the volumes, some will be moved to NAME THE VOLUMES and have them bound in a formal manner as they will meet very specific assignments in ways the “mind” has not conceived.
I also hear this: “Bind them in secret.”
Sons of God, if this word penetrates your spirit — don’t let it die there. Raise up… seek Him… and walk it out.
