Jesus spoke these words on His last night: “I go to prepare a place for you. In my Father's house are many mansions.”
He goes to prepare an eternal and wonderful place customized just for you.
What is implied, but not spelled out, is that the Holy Spirit, in turn, comes into your life to make you into the house that matches your eternal habitation. He moves into you.
Suddenly God starts putting you in situations where you will have to be very much braver, or more patient, or more loving, than you ever dreamed of being before. You must EXPAND. This process comes to us as a surprise, but that is because we have not yet had the slightest notion of what it means when Jesus says: “Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will COME TO THEM and MAKE OUR HOME with them.” (John 14:23) Before He comes for you, He moves into you.
As a ministry we have seen this need for expansion as we are stretched to accommodate all that the Lord wants to do in and through us. Would you consider partnering with us in this journey? Here is the link to sow into the work we are doing: lancewallnau.com/expand. Your continued encouragement and support mean the world to us as we spread the message of truth and hope across the seven mountains of culture.
C. S. LEWIS says…“Imagine yourself a living house. God comes in to rebuild that house. At first, perhaps you can understand what he is doing. He is getting the drains right and stopping the leaks in the roof and so on: you knew that those jobs needed doing so you are not surprised. But, presently, He starts knocking the house about in a way that hurts abominably and does not seem to make sense. What on earth is He up to? The explanation is that He is building quite a different house from the one you thought of—throwing out a new wing here, putting on an extra floor there, running up towers, making courtyards. You thought you were going to be made into a decent little cottage: but he is building a palace.”
This is the TRANSFORMATION project you and I are now experiencing as God moves in to make His tabernacle among men…in us! Heaven is getting the final generation ready for the End Times Feast of Tabernacles! How's the building project going?

I had a dream years ago that I was outside looking through a window of my old house and saw that it was being exquisitely and intricately remodeled inside but it was still a work in progress. The only thing I recognized as my own in the house was a large gold framed mirror that was an antique family heirloom. It was resting on the floor and I could see someone had taken it down to repair the holes in the wall where it had been hanging. In recent years I found a replica of it at an estate sale which I thought was amazingly rare find. It is also still sitting on the floor propped against the wall in my new house because it weighs a ton and I need help lifting and securing. My brother has the original mirror in his home in San Antonio. I understood the interpretation immediately and shared it with my sister telling her the Lord was restoring me into what looked like a palace inside. Thank you for sharing this it really means alot to me.
Isaiah 22:23
I will drive him like a peg into a firm place, and he will be a throne of glory for the
house of his father.
Zech 10:4
From them will come a cornerstone, from them a tent peg, from them a battle bow, from them every leader.
ISAIAH 28:16
Therefore the Lord God said: “Look, I have laid a stone in Zion, a tested stone, a precious cornerstone, a sure foundation; the one who believes will be unshakable.
Pegs are used to secure tents. Jesus the Word of God put on flesh and dwelt among us. He suffered and was tempted as we are but
JESUS as a sinless sacrifice he became our substitute laying down his life for as an overcomer and being nailed to the cross. He erased our death sentence and took the punishment for our sins and in exchange He wrote each one of our names in the Lambs Book of Life, making a way for us to return to God our Father. Our bodies are like tents that we live in temporarily here on earth. But when these tents are destroyed, we know that God will give each of us an eternal home that is incorruptible in heaven where moth, rust, nor thief can break in and steal or destroy.
But for the time being Jesus can dwell in us and among us by His Spirit and we too can overcome as we become the word in flesh.
Ive had an image in my mind last few days of a crossbeam stretched over a deep divided and many people crossing over from ldeath to life from the north, south, east and westt ..from
all of the 4 points of the cross.
I am crucified with Christ. It is no longer I that live but Christ in me.
Peg :
Baseball
throw (a ball) hard and low, especially in baseball.
“the catcher pegs the ball to the first baseman” Thought I’d throw that one in 😆 🤣
We are joint heirs (heirloom mirror) with Christ. We see dimly through this replica version of ourselves but he holds the original version in our eternal palace where we will see our true identity more clearly.
Not trampling but as a way of escape.
“If I be lifted up I will draw all men to me”. The cross is a s a magnetic field I suppose.
I guess that’s how we are to lay down our lives.
Was just in my kitchen when I dream I had last night suddenly came to me:
In my dream I was decorating for Christmas (big decorations) in September. I was wondering what my neighbors would think and then in my dream I remembered that my sister once told me that when she lived in the Philippines that they start celebrating Christmas early as September. So after recalling the dream I went to the book of Phillipians and the whole book spoke to me but 1:6 really stood out because that was the verse I was meditating on when I got this whole download in segments with every mile that I ran.
“For He who began a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ”.
Sorry but you asked how the building was coming along and the Lord then revealed it in the Word and in my mind in a download. 😆
Thank you for this encouraging word. It explains the stretching!
