The Door, The Gate, and The Bridge

Susan Cummings

 

 

The Door:

 

Revelation 4:1-11

1. After this I looked, and there before me was a door standing open in heaven. And the voice I had first heard speaking to me like a trumpet said, "Come up here, and I will show you what must take place after this."

2. At once I was in the Spirit, and there before me was a throne in heaven with someone sitting on it.

3. And the one who sat there had the appearance of jasper and carnelian. A rainbow, resembling an emerald, encircled the throne.

4. Surrounding the throne were twenty-four other thrones, and seated on them were twenty-four elders. They were dressed in white and had crowns of gold on their heads.

5. From the throne came flashes of lightning, rumblings and peals of thunder. Before the throne, seven lamps were blazing. These are the seven spirits of God.

6. Also before the throne there was what looked like a sea of glass, clear as crystal. In the center, around the throne, were four living creatures, and they were covered with eyes, in front and in back.

7. The first living creature was like a lion, the second was like an ox, the third had a face like a man, the fourth was like a flying eagle.

8. Each of the four living creatures had six wings and was covered with eyes all around, even under his wings. Day and night they never stop saying: "Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was, and is, and is to come."

9. Whenever the living creatures give glory, honor and thanks to him who sits on the throne and who lives forever and ever,

10. the twenty-four elders fall down before him who sits on the throne, and worship him who lives for ever and ever. They lay their crowns before the throne and say:

11. "You are worthy, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all things, and by your will they were created and have their being."

 

I have placed My Door open before you, and you must now come.

 

This is the Hour of Visitation. This is the Hour of Visitation for you and also for My people. You will come and see Me, and know Me, as never before. It is time for My People to know Me, and to walk with Me even more intimately. It is time for true relationship and for true worship.

 

My House will now be filled with True Worship from Holy Hearts. My People will know me and enter into True Covenant with me, and will know the Truth, and will live in that truth, and will worship Me from the position of Truth. When they stand in the Holy Place and can worship Me in Truth, then they will truly worship Me and I will be lifted up among them.

 

When I am lifted up in My House, then the healing of My Body will be completed and they will stand in My Holy Place in My Light and know My Grace. They will see My Glory as they were meant to see it, as their eyes will be healed, and their hearts will be true. My People want to see Me face to face, but they cannot yet, until they are full of My Grace. Then My Glory will be seen and they will come face to face with Me, and can know My Embrace.

 

It is the knowledge of My Embrace that is greater than My Face. For My Embrace is the receiving of who I Am, and not just seeing the I Am. I am bringing My People through the Open Door of relationship, to bring them into My Embrace, and to know and live in My Grace. Then My Body will be whole and complete and can walk as One in the earth.

 

When they walk as One in My embrace, then they can be that Light that will shine into the darkness, and that will bring true revival to the forsaken and the barren. For it is the Knowledge of Me and of My Embrace, that sets men truly free.

 

 

The Gate:

 

Matthew 7:

13. "Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it.

14. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.

15. "Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves.

16. By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thorn bushes, or figs from thistles?

17. Likewise every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit.

18. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit.

19. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.

20. Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them.

21. "Not everyone who says to me, `Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.

22. Many will say to me on that day, `Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?'

23. Then I will tell them plainly, `I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!'

24. "Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock.

25. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock.

26. But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand.

27. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash."

28. When Jesus had finished saying these things, the crowds were amazed at his teaching,

29. because he taught as one who had authority, and not as their teachers of the law.

 

As My People walk in My Embrace and also in My Grace, they will open the way before My People, and the gate will be clearly seen. For I Am the Gate through which all men will enter in by and be saved. If I Am seen in the midst of My People in the earth, then the gate will be seen in My House. Many will come to Me, as they see the Truth once again. It is time for My House to be a House of Prayer for all men.

 

It is time for My House to become the gate through which many men will enter in to be saved. For I Am in My House, and I inhabit My People. Yes, I save men, and don’t need men to save the lost, because I Am the Gate through which all men will enter, but I also choose to use men, to be My mouthpieces and My hands in the earth. I choose to use My People to be My Witnesses. I choose to pour Myself out through them and to reap a harvest of souls through their lives.

 

It is time for My People to shine truthfully, and with sincere hearts. It is time for Truth to be evident in the secret parts of their lives and hearts. It is time for honesty and integrity. It is time for true heartfelt relationship with Me and also with each other. It is time for unity and Love in My House.

 

Men have manipulated each other and used each other for their own personal advancement and gain and personal achievements. Men have stolen the innocence and purity of devotion to Me for the pleasure of knowledge and power. They have misused Me, and My People, and have caused many to recede into the darkness out of their selfish use of My Name.

 

It is time for the Truth to begin to be brought back into My House. It is time for the Word of their Testimony to be the true Message of the Hour instead of manipulating My Word for gain. It is the knowledge of My Embrace and the Power of My Love that sets men free. I Am once again coming to the forefront of My People’s conversations and plans. I will become the Topic of their dreams and desires, as they turn their hearts back to Me. I will once again be first in their lives.

 

 

The Bridge

 

Hebrews 4:

1. Therefore, since the promise of entering his rest still stands, let us be careful that none of you be found to have fallen short of it.

2. For we also have had the gospel preached to us, just as they did; but the message they heard was of no value to them, because those who heard did not combine it with faith.

3. Now we who have believed enter that rest, just as God has said, "So I declared on oath in my anger, `They shall never enter my rest.'" And yet his work has been finished since the creation of the world.

4. For somewhere he has spoken about the seventh day in these words: "And on the seventh day God rested from all his work."

5. And again in the passage above he says, "They shall never enter my rest."

6. It still remains that some will enter that rest, and those who formerly had the gospel preached to them did not go in, because of their disobedience.

7. Therefore God again set a certain day, calling it Today, when a long time later he spoke through David, as was said before: "Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts."

8. For if Joshua had given them rest, God would not have spoken later about another day.

9. There remains, then, a Sabbath-rest for the people of God;

10. for anyone who enters God's rest also rests from his own work, just as God did from his.

11. Let us, therefore, make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one will fall by following their example of disobedience.

12. For the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.

13. Nothing in all creation is hidden from God's sight everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account.

14. Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has gone through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to the faith we profess.

15. For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are--yet was without sin.

16. Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.

 

So, the entering in begins in true earnestness, and it begins with My Own. For I have opened the door in this hour, and they will now come to Me truthfully. They will come as they are, and allow Me to change them, and transform them, and fill them with Myself. Then the knowledge of My Grace and of My Embrace will cause them to rise up in My Truth as it finally burns within them in true reality. It is only then that My remnant can rise up and be the Body in the earth.

 

They will then become the Bridge of Life to all who would choose to come to Me.

 

The enemy knows that if the Bridge is built, then the lost will come to Me and My House will be filled, so he has kept My Own from walking in Me and in the Truth. It is time for that to change. It is time for the Truth to be seen, and My House filled.

 

There is no excuse for My People.

 

They have My Word.

 

They have My Name.

 

They have My Blood.

 

They have My Holy Spirit.

 

They have My Anointing.

 

Everything they need is IN Me.

 

So, there is nothing that prevents them from being all that they are called to be, but themselves. It is their choices that cause them to act, and it is their actions that determine their fate. It is that fate that determines the amount of Light and the amount of Darkness in the earth.

 

It is that Light or lack of it, that is the witness in the earth. For good or for bad.

 

It is time for change.

 

My House will now be known for the Light of Truth.

 

My House will now be known for it’s Love.

 

My House will now be known by it’s Prayer.

 

My House will now be known for Holiness.

 

My People will prepare the Way before Me and be that bridge that all men can see and can walk upon, who truly want life. They will now be My Witnesses.

The Fury Of The Release Is Upon You

Susan Cummings

 

 

I say to you, that the Fury of the Release is upon you child. When I release something to My Children, I give it to them fully, and not partially. When I give you My Word, you have it there in front of you to read it. When I gave you My Authority of My Name and My Blood, you could count on it, every time.

So it is with this latter outpouring, it will come upon you with a Fury of Power.

 

When I came upon my disciples in the upper room, I came as a Mighty Rushing Wind, and transformed them violently in an instant, so it will be with you. I will come upon you, and transform you violently, and you will be given another spirit, and will be changed into a new person as was Caleb, and will stand fully in Me, in My Anointing, and you will declare My Word with great Fire and Boldness.

 

The enemy has seen this coming, and he has raged against you, and My People who are walking with Me, but I say, that nothing can stop what I have decreed!

 

Nothing can alter My Timing and Purposes concerning you!

 

Nothing can change the destiny of My People!

 

Great has been the battle that has raged against Mine Own, but great will be the Victory in My Camp!

 

I have arisen amongst My Own!

 

The Fury of The Release has come, and it will be given!

 

My People will stand IN Me, and will walk with Me, and will speak as Me, and will go forth at My Decree! For the day of battle has arrived, and My Own will stand side by side. Nothing will be left alone or unguarded, and all things will be accomplished as I have shown you.

 

Fear not!

 

Reach up, for it does come upon thee!

You Must Know Me

Susan Cummings

 

 

I have repeatedly told you, that you must know Me, daughter. This means that you will know Me in the Fires and in the Glory. You will know Me in the times of sickness and in the times of Strength. You must know me, even more than you do now. Much more.

 

My People still do not know Me enough. It is not enough, yet. In order for you to stand in the days ahead, you must come even closer. You have seen death come to you this week, but I say to you, that you will go to death itself, and pull My People out of it. There is no time to play games, this day is real, and the time is very short that you can labor and bring forth My people.

 

There is nothing that can stand before Me.

 

There is nothing that is too hard for Me.

 

There is nothing that happens to you that I do not know of, or that My Hand is not upon, concerning you.

 

You are a sign to My people. They will know Me in the darkness and in the Light. They will know Me on their deathbeds, if need be, and upon the Heights. It is in the knowing Me, the intimacy, that they will know My Saving Hand. There is no other savior apart from Me.

 

So it shall be, in these last days. I told you that it has begun, and you have experienced this first hand. So shall My people, they also will go through the fires, but they will persevere and be that Light that blazes in the darkest of times! For I will be seen walking amongst them, in it!

 

Fear not, but know that I Am in your midst.

 

Take My Hand, and all that is in it, and embrace it. For in it, you will find both Life and Death.

 

It will be Life to you who embrace it, and death to the old ways and habits that continually trip you up . For I am bringing you through unto perfection and unto righteousness. I know just what you need, and what those who watch you need. For they will watch your life and find their own salvation and deliverance by your testimony.

 

Do not deter, but press on. Walk after Me. Trust Me to bring you forth in this season.

 

My Hand has brought you through the Valley of the Shadow of Death, and you will come forth into My Resurrection Life! For you have not left your post, but remained, even in sickness. So shall My people be, for they will stand when there is nothing else to do but stand, and they will see a great victory!

 

For it is through these steps that you will truly know Me, and know My Salvation and My Power. I will be your total source and provision, and nothing will overtake you in the days to come. This is the hour when My Own will walk with Me, and will not fear, but will be bold for My Names’ sake.

 

So, go forth, daughter…….
