HEAP IT UP!
HEAP IT UP!
A word
from God early on in our ministry.
I don’t have to remind you that the main
function of prophetic ministry is this:
Cry aloud, spare not; lift up your voice like
a trumpet; tell My people their transgression (Is 58:1).
Only, in our case, since we have not had a
vocal platform, God designed the witness to be in writing. Someone aptly
called us “the silent messenger”!
We have published the dreams God has given
about church apostasy, about sins that are tolerated, about evils condoned.
They contain God’s warnings to help the humble, and a witness against the
obdurate.
Beginnings
Midnight Ministries had its beginnings in late 1991 and early 1992, when God’s
Spirit was moving upon my mind, revealing things about what is wrong in the
churches. I mean: what is seriously wrong!
He started with the issue of church
governance. He showed me the synagogue of Satan (Rev 2:9; 3:9) in the
church. He showed me false ministers to boot. Boy, you talk about having
your eyes opened!! For us at that time, it was dynamite! We weren’t used to
being thrust onto the front line. We just wanted to keep our noses clean.
Out of that enlightenment came the
publication God’s Church – Whose Authority? It is part of the
end-time restoration.
I think it was also in 1992 that God spoke to
Helena with another cherry. He led her to this text, and spoke emphatically
through it to her:
And one shall say. “Heap it up! Heap it up!
Prepare the way, take the stumblingblock out of the way of My people.” (Is
57:14.)
God had already shown us the deceit and
falsity of one particular church organisation. Now He was telling us to
prepare the way for these people’s deliverance. They were unable to return
to Him because of the stumblingblock in their path.
First we had to heap up the evidence against
the men who claimed to be Christ’s ‘apostles’ but who were agents of Satan
(2 Cor 11:13). Then, we had to demonstrate exegetically (by accurate
explanation of Bible teaching) where they were in error and misleading their
hearers. This we have done in the various publications produced since 1992.
It’s easy to see now with hindsight (for the
open- minded, that is – many stubbornly refuse to admit to the fact that
what we have done has been by God’s hand), but it wasn’t apparent 14 years
ago. To others, we looked like the renegades, the ones who had stumbled over
the stones. But, true to prophecies that God spoke through others to us, He
has vindicated us.
He heaped it up against the real infidels!
It took a number of years to achieve, but the
wall of Jerusalem took years to rebuild, too. The evidence is now there to
see in:
God Speaks To The WCG
Dreams From God About The WCG
God’s Church – Whose Authority?
Apostasy In God’s Church!
The Controversy Concerning Law and Grace
Prophets and Prophesying
An Introduction To The Spiritual Gifts
The Ten Virgins
Who Is The End-Time Elijah?
The Faith Once Delivered To The Saints
Life After Death
Dreams And Visions From God
All these 12 publications have something to
speak against the rebels, whose stumblingblock of false teaching still
remains to block the path to God in His purity and holiness.
And, of course, there are many other shorter
works, booklets, and articles, that have been written to expose error, to
shout out about heresy, apostasy and obduracy which hold God’s people down.
It doesn’t matter which church you are ‘in’,
or what religious background you come from, what God has laid out in the
above will speak to you, too.
Dreams
Recently, we published our Dream Diary.
It is a witness to the mockers who refuse to recognise our prophetic
calling. Its 264 pages contain most of our dreams from 1997 to 2005.
It won’t change sceptics, of course, but we
have fulfilled God’s command to HEAP IT UP!
Of the false ministers in Jeremiah’s time,
God said:
I have not sent these prophets, yet they ran.
I have not spoken to them, yet they prophesied (Jer 23:21).
That is true today of the majority who call
themselves prophets and ministers of God. They have gone but God did not
send them.
But if they had stood in My counsel, and had
caused My people to hear My words, then they would have turned them from
their evil way and from the evil of their doings (Jer 23:22).
What we have ‘heaped up’ will turn people
from the evil of their doings – IF they heed what is written.
The prophet who has a dream, let him tell a
dream; and he who has My word, let him speak My word faithfully (Jer 23:28).
We have done both. The evidence is all there,
heaped up for people to see. They can either accept it or reject it. Most do
the latter.
Heaping and building
In heaping up the piles of revelations which
God has poured out, and listening to His Spirit in compiling (piling up?!)
MM literature, this preparation of the Way is prophesied in another of
Isaiah’s texts:
Go through, go through the gates! Prepare the
way for the people. Build up, build up the highway! Take out the stones,
lift up a banner for the peoples! (Is 62:10.)
God has things worded so ingeniously!
I was a builder for 17 years prior to being
called to do this work. It is a work of preparation like John the Baptist’s
before Jesus’ major Work. Kassahun Ayele was given a dream symbolising my
function:
November 23, 2004. Malcolm, Prophet No 5
Someone gave me a paper. On that paper there
were 12 prophets named. The name of Malcolm was written as No 5. The names
of the others were completely new to me.
Meaning:
God uses a number of prophets. I am only one of several. My task, like John
the Baptist's, is preparatory, which is the numeric significance of 5.
12 is the number of God’s government. It
shows where He has placed His authority. [It’s not in organised churches.]
Then in another dream given to Kassahun in
Ethiopia, God used the imagery of the banner (or standard) mentioned in
Isaiah 62:10:
May 4, 2005. Malcolm invited to
Buckingham
Palace by the Queen.
In this dream I was in the UK. The exact
place was in London in front of Buckingham
Palace. I met Malcolm there.
On the left [libertine people who need
salvation] of the palace several people were standing, expecting the queen.
At the right side [depicts obedient ones] there was a flagpole but there was
no flag on it. Someone was holding the flag in his hand and looking for
someone to hang the flag. But no one responded. [This is the standard of
God's truth.]
Then Malcolm asked me saying, “May I hang
the flag on the pole?” [God has given MM the standard of His truths.]
I said, “Yes! We can get some publicity. Do
it!”
He went to the guard and took the flag and
began hanging it on the pole. The flag waved on the top of the pole. When he
had finished it, a public phone a short distance from the flagpole, began to
ring. A woman called over to Malcolm and gave him the phone. I could see him
while he was speaking on the phone. He had a big smile. When he had finished
he came to me and told me. It caused us to rejoice in front of those people.
The dream ended there.
Meaning:
This is all to do with the publicity that God will create by bringing people
back who have been dead for years. It will cause the gospel to be heard by
all, through media coverage. 'Famous' people get to meet the Royals.
A well-known praise song reads: "We want to
see Jesus lifted high; A banner that flies across this land..."
Do you see where God is leading? If not, read on in Isaiah:
Indeed the Lord has proclaimed to the end of
the world: “Say to the daughter of Zion, ‘Surely your salvation is coming;
behold, His reward is with Him, and His work before Him’. ” (Is 62:11.)
God has confirmed His Word with signs
following as He promised in Mark 16:16-20 and Acts 2:17-18.
What ‘we’ have written in MM publications
will go to the ends of the earth. They contain God’s words, God’s truths,
God’s encouragement and enlightenment for all who will receive.
God-given Signs
Kassahun’s Dream Diary (up to the
present) contains over 100 pages of dreams from God, several of which are
signs confirming the word which we ‘speak’. How much more does God have to
heap up before the stubborn and hard-hearted get the message?
Luke recorded Peter’s words about Jesus:
Jesus of Nazareth, a Man attested by God to
you by miracles, wonders and signs... (Acts 2:22).
God confirmed Jesus’ ministry with undeniable
signs of His backing. He backs up His chosen servants today with signs – not
for their sake, but for the sake of the message they bring to convey to the
people.
It’s the message that is all-important, not
the person. Don’t look at the person, or you’ll miss the message. It’s not
the packaging you want, but the package.
When God separated Mila Thompson to serve
Him, He gave her a sign. He caused a solitary rose to flower in the middle
of winter in sub-zero temperatures. The sign was one for her, which she
would notice.
The beautiful rose symbolised her. Being
solitary likewise portrayed her task – she is translating MM literature into
Russian. It is a lonely job, but one that is very necessary to deliver many
people in Russian speaking areas. She has been faithful to God’s call.
In contrast, God had me pick a white rose
from our garden one day and give it to a lady who was with us at the time.
“This represents how God wants you to be” I told her. These were not just my
words. God was speaking through me to her, but she didn’t heed.
The rose had a bud on the side – which
represented her spiritually undeveloped husband. As she took the rose from
me, she treated it roughly and some of the petals fell off. It immediately
lost its beauty. She didn’t care about it.
That portrayed precisely what happened later.
She turned away from us, despising the truth, treating it roughly. In her
stubborn and selfish pride, she insulted the Spirit of grace (Heb 10:29).
She needs to heed the rest of what God says in Hebrews 10:29-31!
