"I HAVE PUT MANY OF MY PEOPLE AND THEIR MINISTRIES IN A 'HOLDING PATTERN!'"

In the Spirit I saw a word being written across the nations of the earth...W-A-I-T! I sensed the Lord saying, "As you wait upon Me, your 'wait' will turn into an eternal 'w-e-i-g-h-t' of My Glory that will begin to descend upon the whole earth!"

I sensed the Lord speaking to me recently in commercial airline terms concerning His people and their ministries. He spoke the word, "Holding Pattern," like an airplane circling around in circles until the "air traffic control" on the ground signals it in for a landing. Does it seem like you are going around in circles?

Strong Confirmation

Two days after receiving this word, I flew to another state for some meetings. As we began our initial descent for landing, the pilot came on the intercom announcing, "Ground control has just put us in a 'Holding Pattern' until further notice!" The same thing happened on my flight coming home. ( strong confirmation! )

I sense there are many ministries 'up in the air' right now seemingly going in circles, wondering why they are not being given permission from 'ground control' to bring their ministry in to arrive at their destination. I sense the Lord saying, "You are not the only airplane or ministry in My Kingdom. There are other ministries below you on the ground that need to take off before you can land." As you continue to wait and circle, you will be clearing an opening in the heavens for these ministries on the ground to take off, staying out of their way as they gain altitude. Only as these ministries take off, will the ground below you be cleared for your ministry to come in for landing into God's destination.

Air Traffic Controllers

"There are 'air traffic controllers' on the ground who you feel are in control and are delaying and holding you up from coming into My Destiny for you. You must understand that I am in control! Be careful not to get upset or angry with the 'air traffic controllers' in your life at this season. A wrong spirit towards those in positions of authority can be dangerous at this point in time. Lack of respect towards 'air traffic controllers' could prolong your 'holding pattern!' You must pray for those on the ground who have the authority to bring you in for a safe landing. In a way, your life is in their hands. Pray that they bring you in safe and sound."

Many ministries in this 'holding pattern' seem to have their own agenda and time of arrival carved in cement for touch down. ( I think I heard God laugh at these plans! ) Some even had God's agenda but were frustrated why the Lord seemed to not be giving them much attention in spite of them being huge 747's with many passengers on board who were getting so hungry in the waiting process that there was nothing left on board to feed them. Divine hunger was gripping the pilots (leaders) also, who were feeling helpless to feed the passengers (sheep) any longer. I sensed an angel whispering, "This 'Holding Pattern' is working! The people are becoming totally desperate and helpless!"

"Keep Circling!"

I sense the Lord saying, "Many are tired of being in My 'Holding Pattern' and going around in circles." Many are being tempted to jump from their plane or ministry. I heard the Heavenly Pilot speaking loud and clear, "No parachuting at this time...keep circling!"

I sensed the Lord saying, "Tell these ministries that the reason why they are seemingly being overlooked individually right now is because I am not really focusing on individual ministries at this time...I've got the whole world on My mind! I am in the process of bringing the whole earth into alignment and into My purposes. The reason why I don't seem to be focusing on you and your "ministry" right now is because I am looking throughout the whole earth to find a ministry who is willing to look not just at its own needs, but to look to the needs of other ministries, to connect and network with them, preferring and esteeming one another...For I am moving corporately in the earth this hour with corporate vision!"

It is very important what you do during this 'holding pattern'.

The devil is telling you that you are just going in circles, but the Lord says, "We are right on schedule! Wait! While I have you in My 'holding pattern', I am holding you! Many think the enemy or other people are holding them up from accomplishing My plans, but it is I who am holding you up in My arms, and I kinda like it! You are not going in circles without purpose. This is your moment to worship Me and dance with the King in high places!" (When you hold and embrace someone when you dance, it appears like you are going in circles, but I guarantee you something is happening.) There is intimacy taking place. Try slow dancing with your wife, holding her tightly, and see if you don't do more than go in circles. When you dance with the One who sits upon the circle of the earth, who cares if you go in circles? You are suppose to! You just might forget about ever landing on earth. You begin to realize you are
seated together with Him in Heavenly places. This is how Heaven views our 'holding pattern'.

When you are dancing in circles with the King, you are dancing circles around the enemy and confusing him!

In your waiting, go ahead and worship and love on Him. God is waiting for you to do just that. It's almost like I hear a "referee angel" in heaven, blowing a whistle throughout the earth, decreeing the word of the Lord, "Time out! I must have worship! Earth can't go on without worshiping Me! Please let Me hold you in My arms. I promise you it will cause Me to fill the whole earth with My Glory!"

The Sweetest Song

May 1st my oldest daughter got married. I had mixed emotions walking her down the aisle that day. My most cherished moment of the wedding came at the reception when they introduced the song for the father of the bride to dance with her. I honestly didn't want to stop holding her on that dance floor!

I sense Heaven is introducing its sweetest song right now and announcing, "It's the moment for the Father of the Bride to dance with her."

I promise you, you will not mind His 'holding pattern' or going in circles with Him!
