Build upon the Rock

Lord: Martin, what do you see?

Me: Lord, I see a number of, what appear to be, marble columns, each about two metres high, with stone statues of people on the tops. One of the statues is a man dressed like a Greek philosopher, another is a soldier, there is a man with a hard hat, a group of three making a family, a man with a briefcase, and one dressed like a scientist with a white coat and an instrument in his hand. They seem to represent all walks of man!

As I continue to look, cracks are appearing in the columns and they are beginning to crumble. The way they are disintegrating suggests they are not made of marble at all! As they crumble the statues are toppling off their perch, and falling to the ground. Some have broken and lie scattered amongst the remains of their columns, others have remained intact. Soon there is no sign of the marble at all; it has all crumbled into fine dust.

As I look, some of the statues have come to life, and are standing on their own. Some of them are even walking around. The wind is blowing, and the fine dust is being blown away. The broken statues are sinking into the sandy ground are are now nearly buried, but those who are walking around are moving towards the high ground, away from the sand, and towards the rock. What does it mean Lord?

Lord: What you see is society today. You live in a society where things are not what they seem. It's a world of false values and fraud. Rock-solid investments and business propositions crumble into dust, because the foundations and the material of which they are built, is like sand. The majority of people in this society had trusted in these structures as though they were made of solid rock. They have looked upon their pillars as beautiful, but it doesn't take an earthquake or a flood to destroy false assumptions; it only take the light breeze produced by truth to shatter the illusion.

The level of trust placed in falsehood is very great, so when the inevitable crash comes, many who fall with it will be broken, not to rise again. Others will weather the crash and will rise again, wiser than before.

The high ground, is the rock that I am. All things made by man are like sand castles. Only the rock that I made is firm and lasting. Those who take refuge in the rock, and build their lives on that rock, build to last.

I am calling the nations now, before it is too late, to return to Me, and to build their society upon My rock. Move away from the shifting sand of human greed, the corrupt columns of evil and deceit, that can only bring heart ache and human misery. Build upon truth and honesty, upon the standards and statutes I have made, for your good.

I am the Lord your God. Trust not in the gods of your own making. Trust only in the Rock that I am. Jesus, My beloved Son has opened a way for you to move away from the shifting sands of sin, and on to the rock which stands firm forever. Turn to Me, and I will heal your land. I love you
