The Lord has placed this lesson upon my heart to share. I could not get into my blog post from Belize so I will repost at a later date- for now enjoy this short to the point SHAKING I am about to share!

SHAKING

“Whose voice then SHOOK the earth, but now has promised, saying, “Yet once more I SHAKE not only the earth, but also heaven.’ Now this, ‘Yet once more,’ indicates the removal of those things that are BEING SHAKEN, as of things that are made, that the things which CANNOT BE SHAKEN MAY REMAIN, let us have grace, by which we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear. For our GOD IS A CONSUMING FIRE.” -Heb 12:25-29

The SHAKING of this “earth” and also “heaven” is announcing a change in COVANENTS in God’s plans. It is identifying the passing away of the Old Covenant Jewish religious system (old heaven), involving the judgement that was soon coming upon the nation of Israel, the city of Jerusalem, and the temple (old earth).

The above passage mentions the New Covenant spiritual kingdom (new heaven and new earth) which CANNOT BE SHAKEN. It began at Christ’s first coming in 30ad. and began to form side by side with the fading Old Covenant system during the transition period.

The new kingdom was fully established in 70ad after the destruction of Jerusalem and the temple. It is UNSHAKABLE and shall continue forever throughout human history going forward. As far as the SHAKING and removal of the old covenant is concerned, the above passage declares that God is a “consuming fire”. His judgements are righteous and final.

The SHAKING of the Heaven and Earth also mean that God is SHAKING up the angelic realms. A new covenantal arrangement is implemented. A new kingdom is set up. The old age (world or economy) is torn down, and new age (world and economy) is set up. The Jewish system was part of the old age and passed away with it.

I truly think God is attempting to SHAKE us all up to stop seeking ‘end-times’ speculations and to preach HIS GOSPEL KINGDOM! HIS SAVING GRACE OUGHT TO BE SUFFICIENT FOR US!

Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me. Therefore, go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey all that I have commanded you. And surely, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” … Matt 28:18-20

Then He told them, “For this reason, every scribe who has been discipled in the kingdom of heaven is like a homeowner who brings out of his storeroom new treasures as well as old. “-Matthew 13:52

And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. -Mark 16:15
