I believe this is the time of our lifting. God is going to raise us from the shambles of life to a higher height in him. The same God who chose and made Jesus the chief cornerstone; will touch and lift you as an example to our generation.

Welcome to the living Stone, the source of life. The workmen took one look and threw it out; God set it in the place of honor.

Present yourselves as building stones for the construction of a sanctuary vibrant with life, in which you‘ll serve as holy priests offering Christ-approved lives up to God.

The Scriptures provide precedent: Look! I’m setting a stone in Zion, a cornerstone in the place of honor. Whoever trusts in this stone as a foundation will never have cause to regret it. To you who trust him, he’s a Stone to be proud of, but to those who refuse to trust him,

 The stone the workmen threw out is now the chief foundation stone. For the untrusting it’s . . . a stone to trip over, a boulder blocking the way.

They trip and fall because they refuse to obey, just as predicted.  (1 Peter 2:4–8 MSG)

The life of Jesus Christ is precedent; you will be raised as an example of the same thing you were reject from. God will lift you if you allow him to finish his work in you.

1. You will need to complete the 5 stages in the process of lifting
2. You need to take three steps and
3. There are four things to engage

Come, and let us return unto the Lord: for he hath torn, and he will heal us; he hath smitten, and he will bind us up.

 After two days will he revive us: in the third day he will raise us up, and we shall live in his sight.

Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the Lord: his going forth is prepared as the morning; and he shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter and former rain unto the earth.   Hosea 6:1–3 KJV

1 Peter 2:6-7 assures us that whosoever believes on Jesus Christ shall not be put to shame. When we believe on Christ, God takes us through a five stage programme to ensure our total lifting. God has a plan to lift us up where we belong.

God will lift us up where we belong. The time of lifting is now for those who have believed in Christ Jesus. When we wait on God it’s the beginning to start rising up to where you belong.

Stages of lifting

Many people however believe and are not lifted because they do not patiently go through the stages of lifting. These are stages that happen in a cyclical manner. The master determines your needs and move you to the stage. They are stages but not necessarily a hierarchy or steps to climb to a destination. Success as you must know is not a destination but a direction.

1. The healing stage.

When we return to God, he will heal us. He will send his word and heal our lives, marriages, ministry, and business. Healing is the bread of the children; God is there to heal and heals whenever we need it. The prophet said “as we return to the Lord he will heal us” He has the balm of Gilead. Jehovah is our healer.

2. The binding together stage: 

The second benefit of returning to the lord is the binding together. God in lifting His people does not just heal but he begins to put their life together. In the valley of dry bones God brought the bones together. God will put your pieces together. When we return and allow Him, He will put our lives together. God helps us to put the pieces together. When we come to the Lord we must allow the word to work on us and put our lives together.

Any joint that is out of place or gets out of place; the Lord will bring back. The scattered souls, the broken earth and the shattered dreams God will put together.

3. The third experience in the lifting process is reviving.

After two days he will revive us. After the healing stage; as we begin to put the pieces together; God begins to revive us by his Spirit.  In the valley of the dry bones, after the bones came together God commanded the prophet to speak to the wind from the four winds of the earth. As he spoke the wind began to fill the bones. God respects order; when we put the parts together in order; God begins to revive us.

4. The fourth stage in the lifting process is the raising stage;

Before God can lift us He must raise us, train us, nurture us, and correct us.  You must wait to be raised. You must wait to be trained. You must wait to be nurtured. As a church we must raise our structures and officers. God waters gardens and not forest.

5. The fifth and final stage is the raining stage.

When we wait to be healed, bind together, revived, and raised; then he comes and rain upon us. He rains upon us as both the early and later rain

Steps to rising

There are three simple steps to be lifted:

1. Return to where you must start and where you are.
2. Continue in the sight of God
3. Follow after to know Him

Secrets to lifting

1. Faith: faith inspires positive and godly action.
2. Anointing: the anointing enables performance. (See Luke 24:44-49, Acts 1:8)
3. Wisdom: wisdom is profitable to direct.
4. Skills: skill enhances effectiveness.

I love you; God bless you!
