Remember, when your project
To do a thing for God goes wrong, When the church never rises from the prairie, Or the community of Saints Falls into disarray And confusion, That the City of God is not made by earthly hands. It is not a thing, not a place. It is not made of lumber or brick or mortar. It is made of people who have come through great tribulation. And the pillars that hold up the temple therein are people. And the gates to enter therein are the names Of Jacob’s dysfunctional family. The great work of God is not the thing that you build in his name, It is the thing that you become in the process of trying, He does not need the earthly things he asks for. He needs your obedience when he calls. And the purity of heart that results From coming through “great tribulation” in His name. Rev 7:14…these are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. Rev 3:12 Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name. Rev 21:12-13 …a wall great and high, and had twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and names written thereon, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel: On the east three gates; on the north three gates; on the south three gates; and on the west three gates
