Note: Ruben: This was the last summons from September. We were delayed on some of the summons because I was being obedient not to share. But now we are ready to go forth and after this we will begin the second Journey. It's all about God's timing and us being patient.
So the Angel touched me on the shoulder. I've gotten used to his touch, it's very gentle. He said, “You’re summoned,” and again I leap, ready to go into Heaven. That's such excitement for me when I'm summoned, because there's no telling what is out there, what you're going to see. I follow the Angel on the steps into the beautiful, glorious sights of Heaven. It's hard to describe the aromas—like lemon, honey, roses and oils mixed all together in this atmosphere. If you can picture the oil that Mary Magdalene had and the way it was so anointed. This all just flows into it. So I'm there, the Angel says, “You know what to do, have a seat and somebody will be with you.” I never sit, I take advantage of standing on the bench seeing what's around me. Some of the people acknowledge that I'm there. They wave and I wave back to them. I can't speak to them, but we acknowledge each other by waving. I am in a circle and not allowed to go beyond that area without an escort. The atmosphere is so peaceful, warm and welcoming.
I always enjoy watching the children. The girls are fixing each others hair into pony tails and giggling. The boys the same way, playing, no fighting, just a lot of love. That just shows you how Heaven is. There is nothing to get angry about, it's just about love. I glance to my left and someone is walking toward me. I'm curious who it is. I sit down on the bench to get ready for this person. As he approaches I don't recognize who it is. He sits in front of me and says, “I know you haven't forgotten about me because we've met. I'm Apostle John.
“It's a privilege that we are able to talk with you for you to share with your friends and those that want to hear. In this ministry things don't come easy, as we can see now that we're in Heaven how Christian people are. It's sad sometimes, but there are a lot of good people, and if we can just do the best that we can to hold each other up and focus on God.
“But this is supposed to help us in the long run. Some people ask, how is it supposed to help us? Well, to help us humble ourselves and not get carried away in our own self. Our self is what we have to give up to become like Christ. We have to have the mind of Christ. It is not easy, but nothing is impossible. If we read, and study, and if we push ourselves to encourage each other the best way that we can, we can do this. Right now the way things look we need this. We need to help each other and do all that we can. So let us go forth loving and praying for one another. In the Bible it was asked, ‘am I my brother's keeper?’ So we look at that and try to help each other as best we can. Not to criticize each other, because we need to look at ourself before we speak criticism.
“So let us love and go forth and do what we can for each other. This is how peace and wisdom and understanding and compassion all come together. We're going to struggle, there's no doubt about it. We're going to struggle, bump into some issues. But let me give you some chapters to read and help you to be strengthened, become bold and wear the shield of armor. If you would read (in the order given—there is a reason):
Genesis 29, 1 Kings 6, Psalm 57, Exodus 15, John 17, Hebrews 12, Matthew 6, John 5, James 4, Hebrews 11 & 13, Jeremiah 3, 1 Timothy 5, 1 Corinthians 9, Ephesians 4, Matthew 9, Luke 19, John 10, Acts 26, Romans 10, 2 Corinthians 4, 1 Timothy 2, Psalm 127, Proverbs 22, Deuteronomy 4 & 6, and Matthew 19.
“Let these chapters motivate and speak to you because of what is happening today, and focus on what is happening in your life. Let it motivate you to be stronger and walk in love. So read with an open mind. It is always a privilege for me to speak into you, it is an honor. So my brother, I love you. Let me embrace you, and I will see you again.”
