From the dark valleys to the mountain tops of Zion


God is amazing me more and more by these posts. God is confirming my post through my Spiritual Daddy, Pastor Trevor Dolan’s word ministered any time or through status messages. These blog posts are THE NOW WORD. Read with an open mind.
                                                                                                                     
Valley and mountains represent contrasting positions physical and spiritually.
Valleys
Mountains
Lower than Mountains
Higher than Valleys
Some of the Examples in the Bible are Valley of Becca meaning weeping. Valley of Dry Bones
Some of the Examples in the bible are Mount Hebron which represents Covenant and Mount Zion which David built his Kingdom on.
Is low moments in life and speaks of up and down
Elevated moments in life and speaks of heights.
No Progress
Progress
Insight and foresight limited because all around you are the same as where you stand
Insight and foresight is unlimited because you stand on the mountain and overlook the environment in front of you
Mice and chickens (Pastor ministered on chickens in the valley)
Eagles found on mountain’s
Narrow floors
Enough room-Rehoboth means make room

Valleys
The definition of a valley is a HOLLOW surface or DEPRESSION with predominant extent in one direction. The word depression is a rather interesting pun I would think. In a valley position your spirit is lowered due to disruptive, disappointing, devastating, depressive moments, I would love to put a name tag on it called 4D. This is no 4D baby scan.
You are empty (hollow) like those white sugar coated Easter eggs. It is easier to crush a hollow object than a solid one. You are at a vulnerable state, a wounded prey.
Valleys have different shapes like V, U or flat shaped. You rather walk in circles if you decide to get comfortable in a valley position. A flat shaped valley reminds me of Social Science lesson in intermediate phases and learning about Christopher Columbus. Every one made speculation Earth is made flat and if one had to keep traveling maybe north they would fall off the face of the Earth
And end up where? Mina Angaas
Christopher Columbus wanted to see for himself and he sailed on a ship and found new places. New people, new environments but he had to be brave and go against what others were saying.
What are others saying about you?
What are people saying about you through body language, gossip, words?
Are their actions tarnishing your shine?
Are you affected by it?
If my dried up salty tears could flow back into my eyes and tell you  stories  of how they were formed, how people have defined me. Never forget your identity is found in Christ. It is more difficult, note the “D”.  When close family members or loved ones are the ones which poke at your character. Through what you are experiencing in the valley, never forget to praise God through it all. Do not run to God only when there is trouble. Some people say to me they want to ask a favour, without hesitating I ask them “What is wrong hun” knowing there must be something wrong and might need prayer. They tell me what is wrong and I pray for them. I guaranty if I call them for a prayer meeting or visit their church. They will not be there.
 WHY? You only know God when you choose to. You not are sitting in a WHO WANTS TO BE A MILLIONAIRE SHOW.
  Call a friend?
I got three friends to call, God, frank, Fathima. I can call God because I know he will know have the answer. You calling God because you know he is only person who will help in a tight position. After you win the money, you are asked what you are going to do and you say I am going to go out with Fathima and Frank.  Where is God in this Equation?
 Things are all rosy so I do not need God you think.
Look at my complete profile and search for a question I ask all people who read my profile.
I know you are too lazy to read it or might forget so here it is (A portion of it)
Are you an EMERGENCY CHRISTIAN? Only when you need God

REMEMBER:
Psalms  23 V 4
Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of Death, I will Fear no evil, for you are with me, your staff and rod they comfort me.
Analysis: I have no fear but faith because Emmanuel, God with us is with me. When there is fear and doubt the Holy Spirit comforts us.



Mountains




The mountains are rocky material. Christ is my rock and my sure foundations. The air is different on the mountain top. You are on higher altitudes. Eagles are found on mountain tops. When you are on the mountain top you have a choice to look down on people or help them realize they are not progressing.  You feel different on the mountain because you are surrounded by a different an environment. Make a covenant on the mountain top, Hebron. Build on the rock of your home, mount Zion. Mount Zion represents a place of intimacy with God. Shout out from the mountain tops and blow the trumpet. Moses went up to Mount Sinai where he received the ten commandments of the Lord. Instruction is therefore given on the mountain tops. David took the Ark of the Covenant to the mountain top and built his kingdom on Mount Zion so he could oversee the people and pass laws and decrees there. A Tsunami hit Indonesia a few years ago and you find people where wondering what is going on because all these animal life seemed to be heading towards the mountain. A few people realized something was drastically wrong and decided to move to the mountains for safety. When they final got to the mountain they saw the waters cover buildings and the entire sea shore was converted into an ocean bed. On the mountain you have insight and foresight that is advance and will edify and save you and people around you.

Moving from A Valley to A mountain


1.   Make up your mind to move from a valley to the mountain.

2.   Do not make a fire and build a tent in the valley. These are signs of getting comfortable.
3.   Leave your burdens at the foot of the mountain which represents the feet of Jesus.
4.   Do not let the rivers fool you because they are the rivers of depression and pool of pity.
5.   Faith will be your wings when you mount up on wings like eagles and soar towards the mountains.
6.   Mice are on the ground and are eaten by flying eagles. You want to be the eater or eaten, predator prey. I do not feel edible at this point, thank you.
7.   Do not think climbing the mountain takes too long or too much of effort to climb and then make your OWN mind up to take an alternative route. Lot took an alternative route instead of the mountains (Ministered by Pastor on the 13th and 20th of May-Kainos Covenant Community_Chatsworth). Lot never listen to the Angel of God and took an alternative route to Zoar found in Genesis 19 V 22 which means small and insignificant. 
8.   Looking at the mountain is not going to help you climb it when you at the foot of the mountain. Looking at the top will help you climb that mountain.
9.   Let us climb this mountain so we can visit someone I know well who lives there. The God most high.
10.               In the mountain you are closer to the sun, yes the son of God.
11.               There is rest on the mountain top.
12.               There is no being boxed in like in the valleys but there is enough room on the mountains so you are free and not restricted.
13.               God has prepared a table for you to dine with you
14.               Standing on the mountain you can see those who are down in the valleys. Help them come up to the mountain top.
15.               There is no more sadness and tears or dryness but Joy, no lack, living water.
16.                        In impartation on 22nd may Christopher Pillay made an important point, he said, you either choose Zoar or to Soar. Funny statement but serious statement.
