Pleasant Places Await You by Lana Vawser
Lately I have had the verse burning on my heart Psalm 16:6:
"The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places;
indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance."
There has been great alignment, and contending happening
within the body of Christ in this season. A great
stretching, that at times, many have felt like they could
not have possibly been stretched any further.
Stretching
I saw many in this time of great stretching and in the past
couple of week especially have felt "stretched" to the
limit, but while the stretching has taken place, there has
been a bubbling excitement like butterflies in the pit of
stomachs at the heavenly expectation of what is about to
manifest.
Hearts Enlarging
As this stretching took place, I saw hearts enlarging.
Hearts were getting BIGGER AND BIGGER. Right at the moment
when many of the people of God felt like they could no
longer be stretched any further, and were perplexed at this
stretching, I was then taken into the most beautiful and
glorious dining room I have ever seen. A beautiful
fireplace, candles on the mantlepiece and all around the
room were pictures of the people of God smiling. The mantle
piece began at the fireplace and went all around the room.
As I looked to the ceiling and the floor there were shelves
everywhere with MILLIONS of these photo frames. A sense of
love and joy engulfed me as I felt the excitement and
feeling of a proud parent. It was like when you visit
someone's house and you see photos of their children
everywhere, and they are SO excited to share with you all
about their children and who they are, show you photos and
just boast in the beauty of your children. That was the
sense encircling me.
Dine with Me
I then looked in the middle of the room and there was the
longest and biggest dining table I have ever seen with
glorious wooden polished chairs with gold lining and the
finest cutlery I have ever seen. Glasses on the table
sparkled like diamonds and in the middle of the table was
the most glorious food I have ever seen in my life. All
types of food on platters and fruit…I have never seen so
many bowls of fruit.
I then saw the Father and He entered into the dining room,
He was so beautiful, the joy, peace and beauty that was
flooding from Him was indescribable.
"I have prepared a feast for My beautiful adored so greatly
loved children. I have enlarged their hearts to receive
greater revelation of Me, and to KNOW My love as their good
heavenly Daddy."
The love beaming out of Him was so glorious.
"It is time for them to feast, and see the boundary lines
are falling in pleasant places for them. It is time for
them to step further into their inheritance that was
purchased for them by the atoning work of My glorious Son."
I lifted my hands in worship and gave Him praise for His
indescribable beauty and goodness. I laughed with such joy
and cried tears of thankfulness all at the same time. My
eyes closed delighting in His beauty.
When I opened my eyes, I saw Jesus standing at the door. He
was dressed in a tuxedo, and those eyes, those blue eyes
were something so beautiful, so peaceful, yet I could see
fire in His eyes as well. Fire of love, burning love for
His people.
He began bringing in His people one by one, and I could see
the stretching that had taken place in their lives. Some
looked weary, and some looked discouraged, and some were
beaming with joy and excitement but ALL of them had HUGE
hearts.
He sat each one of His people down at this glorious dining
table and He sat with them, and with His beautiful tone of
love He spoke.
Feast
As the people of God feasted, their hearts were being
filled. They were feasting in deep intimacy with Him, as
they ate from the platters, there was laughter, there was
joy, there was such peace and UNITY with Him.
As they ate it was like I could see what was being
"deposited" into their hearts. They were feasting and their
hearts were being filled with DEEP revelation of His
character. I saw words filling their hearts like "He is
faithful" then revelation of His faithfulness would explode
in their hearts. "He is always good" then revelation of His
goodness would fill their hearts. "He is trustworthy" then
revelation of Him being trustworthy would fill their
hearts. "He is provider" then revelation of Him as provider
would fill their hearts.
Then I noticed on each of their plates was a gold piece of
paper rolled and tied with a ribbon, with an instruction to
only be opened at Jesus' invitation to the next "place."
Relationship Healing
In this "feasting" they were being given the greatest gift
of all….HIM! Such depth of intimacy was happening. Out of
this place of deep intimacy I then saw something. Between
some of the people of God across the table, suddenly I
could see brick walls. Hindrances in relationships,
relationship breakdown. Yet as the people of God feasted
and their hearts were being filled, I saw them reach out
and begin to pull the bricks down. They weren't cemented
in. As they removed the bricks, I saw them reach across the
table to those on the other side, and hold hands.
Restoration and healing in relationships and unity was
taking place from the place of intimacy and feasting.
Wounds Healed
Wounds that were upon the bodies of the people of God were
being healed as they ate. Healing was taking place.
Spiritual, emotional, mental, physical as they were bathed
in the glorious love of the Father.
Boundary Lines have Fallen in Pleasant Places
Once the people of God had feasted and feasted I saw Jesus
stand up and invite His people, one by one outside and to
bring the "rolled up gold paper" with them.
He took them outside to the most beautiful garden. It had
the most precious roses, and so many other colorful
flowers, a waterfall in the middle of the garden. This
place was so beautiful! So serene.
As they unraveled this piece of paper at Jesus' request it
was an invitation, but the date on the invitation was today
and it was an invitation to enter into a season of "seeing"
in the "natural" the boundary lines falling in pleasant
places for them.
I then had the sense that the RSVP for this invitation was
to TRUST HIM. As they looked at this invitation I could
sense thoughts swirling in their minds. Was this "real?"
Was it "too good to be true?" Will I be disappointed
again?" but in order to accept this invitation there needed
to be a deeper level trust and surrender.
Where once these thoughts would have caused them great
torment and oppression, because of their feast, they
wholeheartedly accepted. I saw them pick up a gold pen and
sign their name on the bottom of the invitation. They
handed the invitation back to Jesus and I saw Him kiss the
invitation and suddenly it was sealed and He then placed it
on the inside of His jacket, and I then knew it had been
placed into His heart.
Jesus then handed them another envelope and as they opened
this envelope and pulled out the paper, it was a map, but
it was a map made up of Scriptures.
"These are some of My promises to you and the areas where
you will now step into seeing the boundary lines fall in
pleasant places for you."
There were so many tears of joy and excitement.
"Write these upon your hearts, meditate upon My promises
day and night. I love you with an everlasting love, and you
are going to see so many of My divine kisses of love and
favor over you as you step deeper into the inheritance that
is already yours."
As they placed the letter upon their hearts, the letter
disappeared yet the "map" of promises were burned onto
their hearts.
"Do not forget to meditate upon these words. Do not forget
My promises to you."
Suddenly a double door appeared before them and as they
stepped up to it, the doors flung wide open, and there was
the most glorious promised land before them. Mountains
flowing with milk and honey as far as the eyes could see.
Pleasant Places Await You
Jesus walked with them through the door into this new land
and an excitement filled their hearts for new adventures
with Him and tears of joy flowed.
"For such a time as this. This is what I have been waiting
for my whole life. All Glory to you Jesus. Thank You! I
love You! Thank You," was sung from their hearts as they
entered.
Suddenly, the stretching, extending and contending all made
sense.
This is the season we are in now.
This is the invitation before the people of God.
It is up to us whether we accept it or not. It costs. There
is a price to "go lower" in intimacy and surrender, but oh
the glorious freedom and joy and knowing Papa's love that
awaits. New adventures aren't on the horizon anymore, they
are HERE, now.
Jesus wants to show you the map of His promises seen for
your life and how they are falling in pleasant places. No
more seeing the enemy take from you and take from you as
your eyes have been drawn away from His beauty and
faithfulness because of hardship and discouragement.
It's time to step in…
The invitation is before you…
"Come and feast with Me in My dining room of intimacy."
It will be LIFE-CHANGING!
