The Church that Jesus Builds and His Kingdom

LORD, I feel as if I am just drifting in the wind like a balloon filled with helium as it ascends and is blown about. I sense I have lost sight of my purpose and I feel I am without an open door.
The pressure mounts to go back to where I have come out of. I have abandoned the traditions of men to follow you where ever your Spirit leads. The explanation I seek to give which might cause one to understand that it is the voice of the LORD which has spoken to me, "Come Out!" from that which is of the traditions of men which negate the Word of God; man's methods which are "works of the flesh!"
You, LORD, have called to me to follow you and you alone.
Where is the Church which you are building, the Church that withstands the gates of hell, the Church built on the rock of revelation of who you are? Where is the Church which delights in you and flows with the desires of your heart? Where is the Church you have entrusted with the "Keys of the Kingdom of Heaven," releasing your authority in earth as you have willed it in heaven? Where is your church - the church you have ordained, the one you are building? Where is the Church where you are LORD?
I woke up this Saturday morning at 5:45 AM and felt drawn to your presence (our meeting place on the screened back porch). As I sit before you I ponder, digging deep inside of me. I realize I must ask you, "When, where, what?"
LORD, you are my compass - the North Star - the Morning Star. You are my Standard - the Banner which was planted by God on His Holy Hill, Mount Zion. You are the Banner flowing in the winds of your Spirit, your Holy Spirit, crying out, "I AM VICTORY! Upon this ROCK, the CORNER STONE, I HAVE DEFEATED THE ENEMY! I HAVE PLANTED MY KINGDOM IN THE EARTH. I HAVE POURED OUT MY SPIRIT AND I HAVE GIVEN BIRTH TO MY CHURCH."
"Look, daughter, look hard and steadfast at this BANNER and you will see that which holds the BANNER high is the CROSS OF CALVARY - the place where the LAMB became the LION; the SERVANT AND SHEPHERD WARRIOR became the KING OF GLORY!"
"As the winds of my Spirit blow, my train and scroll are unfurled revealing my purposes. The things which have been sealed will now be revealed!"
Vision: I see the rider on the white horse, in his right hand there is a staff in the form of the cross along with the scroll. He has a crown on his head. His armor is that of a white robe having been dipped in blood. His train is that of an army of the righteous which reaches to the heavens, to the clouds, even the cloud of witnesses, the church of the 1st born.
"Look up! Fix your gaze upon me for I will lead you in to triumph, into victory, and into Me - your LORD, KING AND MIGHTY WARRIOR!"
