The Flag has Been Raised
-----

Vision :
I see a sheet of white silk flowing in the wind. I see it is a white flag raised high above the earth.

Word :

A flag has risen!
It represents purity!
It is not a sign of surrender but a sign of God's moving across the earth!
It has been raised so high that all nations will see and recognize the need to obey His call, to live a life holy unto the Lord !

He commands holiness!
He desires holiness!
He wants us to be completely set apart for Him!

Not to walk in arrogance, in the mind set that we are special and more important than the world, but to walk in reverent fear and humility, walking holy in a dirty world, that the world will indeed see the purity and beauty of Jesus in us, His children!

A call of holiness is sounding forth from His trumpet!
His call is for holiness - be completely set apart for His use!
No longer to have 'one foot in the world' for that is disobedience and has resulted in many of His children to know much suffering!
Complete sanctification unto the Lord is required in His Bride!
The time draws ever closer for His return and He is searching for His pure and spotless Bride!

The flag has been raised to be seen!
The trumpet is calling to be heard!
See and hear the move of the Lord!

No longer does He want His children walking in the mud, staining their garments!
He wants His Bride soaring above the miry clay to be and remain His stainless Bride!

A call has been made!
A flag has been risen!
See and hear the desire of the Lord!

Every blessing to you all,

Yours in Christ,
Andrew
