The Rock of Revelation Truth
How important it is to hear Holy Spirit’s voice! The Kingdom of Heaven comes to the earth through those who will receive revelation. These individuals will be like Simon whose name was changed to Peter after supernaturally glimpsing the reality of Christ’s person and anointing; and was told that he himself would become foundational in Kingdom work all because of his reception of Revelation Truth and the giver of it.
The name Peter means “rock” implying that this “rock” of revelation would cause Peter to become like a rock as well. He became one who would be used in the building of Christ’s Kingdom.
This prophecy must have always stayed with Apostle Peter because we find its theme later on in his writings. He calls Yahshua the “Chief Cornerstone,” and the “stone which the builders rejected,” and also a “stone of stumbling and a rock of offense.” Yahshua, according to Peter, is a living stone and those joined to Him have become living stones as well; all built together, I believe, by their desire and ability to hear their God’s voice, and to obey Him in establishing His Kingdom and glory in the earth.
What a wonderful thing it is then to be a part of this ongoing revelatory and Kingdom building process. It is as if the book of Acts has not yet come to a close. I am walking today in a reality of life in the Spirit I could not have fathomed ten years ago!
In Matthew sixteen Yahshua, after changing Peter’s name and speaking the aforementioned prophecy, declared also that Peter would receive the keys of the Kingdom and would be able to bind and loose that which has already been bound and loosed in heaven; again inferring an ongoing revelatory process. This process should come as no surprise to us since Yahshua Himself attributed his success to the ability to see and hear what His Father was doing and saying.
I bless you to continually receive these “keys” and in so doing to see the reality of Yahshua’s Kingdom come to bear in the earth and in your life.
