Earlier today, I was wondering what I would share with you. I later decided I would share a conversation with God. But I was yet to have that conversation… My plan was to have a conversation, then share that conversation with you. It may sound funny, but it’s true.
I didn’t have it all figured out, but I knew there was a pain within me that I needed to talk to the Lord about. I also knew He would reply, and I was going to share that gist with you. If you don’t need it today, you would need it someday. We all need some dosage of God-mixed syrup of love, care and reassurance, don’t we?
Back to my intended conversation. I envisioned myself sitting in a quiet place and saying words like this to Papa…
“Papa the last 4 months of my life have been upside down. It’s been full of down sides, stress, tears, pain, disappointments, etc” I was just going to ‘rant it all out’. But here is the funny thing;
while I thought I was practicing a conversation, Papa showed up right there to comfort and console.
His response? A conversation we had 2 years ago. I had the conversation saved on my drive and that was what He nudged my heart to go and dig out. That was His reply to the chat I was already having with Him.
I knew He left me clues in there, and I couldn’t wait to lay my hands on it.
Papa gave me the response to my questions today TWO YEARS AGO….
He knew I would get to this place, this place where I just want to literally hide under a hole, super tired and fagged out… Papa knew. And…
He saved me a letter… 2 years before now. What beats that? It doesn’t exist.
That is the conversation I would share with you now….
PAY ATTENTION TO PAPA’S RESPONSE.
His Beloved,
Omo Oba.

My Thoughts…
‘The age to come is a dispensation in God
God dwells in ‘Ages’
I can say God is not in this present time
God dwells in a realm of life called Eternity
And Eternity is in God
When God relates with me, He speaks from a realm of life that is higher than mine
That is why His thoughts and ways are higher than mine
But there is a bridge for this ‘gap’
It is called Faith
He that walks by faith is taking steps out of the ‘present’ into ‘eternal dispensations’ in God
The life of a believer ain’t dotted with religious bigotry and dogma
Our walk is Living
Jesus is the new and living way!!
Jesus is a WAY….and that way is NEW and LIVING
Something is wrong somewhere
This walk is beyond high sounding knowledge and mysteries
Yea, there are deep mysteries in that being who is likened to a sardine and Jasper stone
But….something is still missing somewhere
I perceive its tangibility
Yea….TANGIBILITY
God can be held and handled
It seems we ain’t holding him
Coz we are encumbered with ‘getting it right’
We wanna get the ‘rites of worship’ and we lose the essence of worship
We wanna conform to the ‘modes of christian living’, the norms and customs of a ‘good Christian’, and in the midst of it all…..
We lose tangibility.
Tangibility is in the place of EXCHANGE
I let go of my own ways of reasoning for His own ways
I take off my hands from my supports and I place them in His hands
I take my gaze off myself and I set them on Him
That’s how tangibility is gotten
This must dawn on me
That every step I take towards Yahweh
Is a step out of the present into the realities of the age to come
See….it’s not a thing shrouded in Mysterious languages and reasonings….
The age to come is Jesus Christ….
Because he has been made higher than the heavens
In Him I live, move and have my being
What will end this present age are men who are lost in the reality called CHRIST
This is an invasion
Kingdom thoughts invading the present
Judging the present
This is eternal life
When the thoughts of the Eternal majesty visits man
It’s like the resting of the dove upon Jesus
Heaven has kissed earth
There must be a KNOWING
That an exchange is taking place on the inside of me
Yea….something is happening to me
An exchange of a life for another
That thought must hold my heart firm and steady
So that when the darts of the enemy comes in the form of overwhelming thoughts….
The TANGIBILITY of this life in me stands as a standard against them
True true….there are realities in this present order
Sorrows, issues, aspirations and disappointments…..
Errrmmm…..I know.
But I also know something else that is higher than that which I have known ‘here’
It is the Father’s Love
It is the Father’s Embrace
The Father’s Kiss
I know that too
And in the end….only one knowing must stand
The tangibility of the Father’s Life
Yahweh’s Life is my standard
Yahweh’s life is judgement
That is my escape out of the present
Time to start looking at my present troubles through the lens of Eternity
Then I see they are nothing… But mere distractions from the ‘Real Deal’.
Ain’t gonna trade this reality for the present
This is my life.’
PAPA REPLIES…
Omo Oba….your life ain’t a mistake
Every step…every pain…every dart…every tear….everything….they are nothing but stones… Yes…stones of building….
Burnt stones and rubbles were used for building the walls of Jerusalem
Tobiah and Sanballat could not but ask….
Would they make stones out of these heap and rubbish?
They got the answer didn’t they?
Satan is asking the same thing today…
Will a beauty arise out of this distress?
I laugh….
I laugh…
Hear the rumbles of my laughter
Hahahhaaha
I laugh!!!
Daughter….I am raising a terror
I am a terrible being
Full of fearful ways and manifestations
And I raise men in that order
Beautiful within and without
Men decked with the apparels of meekness and lowliness
Men of great authority
Whose foundation are laid in total submission to Christ
I raise many Christ
It’s not far fetched
It’s not a reality you will see in your 40s or 50s
Even 30s is too far.
It is happening NOW
I raise you Now
I work in you Now
And in MANY OTHERS
I am raising healing waters
Nations are parched and dry
They need healing waters
Dispensed through hearts molded in Love
It ends in Love
Love is a calibration of Ages
The age to come is in Love
Love is a realm beyond the present
I heal you in Love
I heal your heart
Even by the oil of my Love
This moment
This minute
This hour
I heal you
Arise in Strength
Another beauty has been added
You are more beautiful
I make beauties out of pain
Just keep looking up
The dawning of the day is here
I love you.
End.
God speaks, not in time, but into time. His words are not limited to Now, He speaks into every realm of existence, whether in the past, present or future. Reminds me of a hymn I love so much, great is your faithfulness;
‘ALL WE HAVE NEEDED, YOUR HEART HAS PROVIDED,
GREAT IS YOUR FAITHFULNESS,
LORD UNTO US!’
Keep walking.
Papa sees everything, and He has made provisions for ALL that you need.
He speaks Healing to the wounded hearts
He sings beauty over the tired souls
He calls you Brave , because He has made you so
You are His delight, His beloved
Arise in strength, sons and daughters of the LIVING GOD
Your Father calls you BLESSED
He sings over you; Beauty and Healing.
May your ears hear, may your feet tingle and may your heart move to the song of His Love, sung over you before time began.
Selah.
Omo Oba.
