My Sheep Hear My Voice- Rev. 21:14


My Sheep Hear My Voice- Rev. 21:14

Before Jesus was crucified He told the disciples to watch and pray, something so simple, but they let their physical bodies take over and they fell back asleep. In these last hours of time you need to hear His voice. When He tells you something, it is very important, but most ignore my voice or just discuss it and go on with what they were doing. You will see many things start to happen shortly and if you do not hear and obey His voice,... it will mean death for some of you....Jesus has only your best interest in mind. Christ knows you heart, and if you are truly His you will hear His voice. He awakes many of you at 3am on the dot, but most will roll over and go back to sleep. There are a few who will get up and pray. Your day is filled with so many things and Jesus is the last thing many of you give your time to. But Christ needs to talk to you,... to fellowship with you and only when you are still and quite (3am) can you hear Him,... the rest of your day is so busy you do not have time for Him,... but you need to make time, for time is short and the Lord has instructions for you.

Revelation 21

The Wall, Gates, and Foundations of the New Jerusalem


And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and in them the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb. Rev. 21:14

twelve apostles of... The 12th will be the name of Matthias, who was numbered with the apostles (Act. 1:26).

The foundation of Christianity was established by Jesus through the twelve apostles.

You can easily see, this is not only a city but stands for the Christians as well.



These stones commemorate God's covenant relationship with the church of which the apostles are the foundation of.
The layout of New Jerusalem's gates picture God's favor on all His redeemed people from both the old and new covenant.

The 12 foundations to the city’s wall bore the names of the 12 apostles of the Lamb. The apostles were part of the church, the body of Christ. Thus both the church and Israel will be in the city; the former are represented by the apostles’ names on the foundations (Rev. 21:14), and the latter by the names of Israel’s 12 tribes on the gates (Rev. 21:12). The distinction between Israel and the church is thus maintained.
