THE TRIBE
Prophetic Word
Received by Linda Hornsby
April 8, 2004
There is a shift coming, a change in the heavenlies. There is an abrupt interruption of the cosmic
forces. It is my hand, says the
Lord. The world has thought that “my
hand” does not exist because they have not seen it. Even had they seen it, they would have tried
to control it or to cut it off. I am God
Almighty and I have sovereignly chosen to work through my people, the people I
have chosen and purchased with the blood of my precious and dear son.
The people have grown dull in hearing and dull in seeing. Their zeal for me has grown lukewarm and does not continue to burn hot. I am sounding my voice, my trumpet, and I say to my house and to my people to get ready. Forsake the things which have made a bid for your heart and even some things which have already stolen the affections of your heart from your first love.
This is the day of my appearing. This is the day which I have chosen and marked by events and my ordained will in heaven. This is the day I have long awaited to come to pass, the day I have appointed by my hand to come to pass at the appointed time.
I would say to you today, this is the appointed time; this is the time of my appearing in “manifest presence” to show forth my glory. I have a tribe which has not been made known to man in times past. This tribe was born out of the twelve tribes and the church. This tribe marks the place in history as man would know it.
This tribe is to His praise and has the profound markings of the “King” and will ride with “The King of Glory” to make known His wonders.
His wonders will be made known in the earth through this tribe -- the people of the King, who are mighty warriors. Through this tribe of warriors the King of Glory will be made known in the earth. This tribe of warriors knows the King of Glory and will shortly experience the manifested presence of this King of Glory.
Think it not strange that the word declares the change in the heavenlies and the shaking of kingdoms. I have declared that there is a kingdom which is unshakable. It is my kingdom, says the Lord, the Kingdom which was established when my Son left his glory in heavenly places and became as man. This kingdom came and dwelled among men, but many did not see it and some who did hear of it rejected it because it was not a kingdom which is after man.
Man has been given a will; some have strong wills. Wills, like the cross -- the rock of offense, can produce life or can produce death. This is contingent upon where the will of man is placed. Man’s “will” operates as “self will,” which is set in agreement with the kingdom of darkness or the will of man operates in my will; his will is submitted to my will.
Many will come from afar to see the manifestation of my presence and I would speak today to make the resolve whether your will is one of self-sufficiency and stands in agreement with the darkness or is totally surrendered to me, says the Lord.
For there is coming, yes, the time is approaching where there will be no "in between” and there will be no “back and forth” -- no more “using my kingdom” to serve one’s own agenda or to comply with one’s personal conveniences. I am God, and as God I am calling forth today a resolve in the heart to forsake everything that is making a bid for the affections of your heart, which belongs to me. I am speaking of things in one’s life which would cause a compromise of the walk and commitment to me.
We are breaking “camp” as you have known it and we are moving out. Those who have eyes to see, ears to hear and hearts to obey will follow; but there will be many who will not follow, for they have sold themselves for “today.” Many have come to the place, like that of Esau; they have sold their inheritance, their birthright, for the desire, need or lust of the moment.
This is an “all points bulletin” to call forth and sound the alarm. Get ready, for I am coming in glorious majesty, in my power and glory. The flesh cannot enter in to that which I am bringing with me and will impart to those who have given everything. I am saying to make known that which I have spoken to you today. Tell my people to get ready for I am coming, says the Lord of Hosts, the King of Glory!

NUGGETS OF GOLD
In a little while I will once more shake the heavens and the earth, the sea and the dry land. I will shake all nations, and the desired of all nations will come, and I will fill this house with glory, says the Lord Almighty. Haggai 2:6-7
At that time his voice shook the earth, but now he has promised, “Once more I will shake not only the earth but also the heavens.” The words “once more” indicate the removing of what can be shaken – that is, created things – so that what cannot be shaken may remain. Hebrews 12:26-27
As per the commentary by Jamieson, Fausset and Brown: “At the establishment of the Sinitic covenant, only the earth was shaken to introduce it, but now heaven and earth and all things are to be shaken. That is, along with prodigies in the world of nature, all kingdoms that stand in the way of Messiah’s kingdom, “which cannot be shaken,” are to be upturned. “Paul condenses together the two verses of Haggai implying that it was one and the same shaking, of which the former verses of Haggai denote the beginning, the latter the end. The shaking began introductory to the first advent; it will be finished at the second. [Bengel].
His intent was that now, through the church, the manifold wisdom of God should be made known to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly realms, and according to his eternal purpose which he accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord. (Ephesians 3:10-11)
As per Barnes Commentary: “One grand purpose in the creation of the universe was that the wisdom of God might be clearly shown by the church.”
As per Jamieson, Fausset and Brown Commentary: — “unto the various orders of good angels primarily, as these dwell “in the heavenly places” in the highest sense; “known” to their adoring joy. Secondarily, God’s wisdom in redemption is made known to evil angels, who dwell “in heavenly places” in a lower sense, namely, the air; “known” to their dismay.
..“by means of,” or “through the Church,” which is the “theater” for the display of God’s manifold wisdom: “a spectacle (Greek, “theater”) to angels.” Hence, angels are but our “fellow servants.”
..though essentially one, as Christ is one, yet varying the economy in respect to places, times, and, “stewards of the manifold grace of God.” Man cannot understand aright its single acts till he can survey them as a connected whole. The call of the Church is no haphazard remedy, or afterthought, but part of the eternal scheme, which, amidst manifold varieties of dispensation, is one in its end.”
“I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other! Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with me. Revelation 3:15, 20
As per the Bible Alliance Commentary: “In the midst of a lukewarm church age, Christ’s promises to overcoming churches remain valid. He will come to them in blessing and in the power of the Spirit, opening a door that no one can shut, so that they may glorify his name and proclaim the everlasting gospel.”
Yet I hold this against you: You have forsaken your first love. Remember the height from which you have fallen! Repent and do the things you did at first.
Revelation 2:4-5
As per the Bible Alliance Commentary: “This warning teaches us that knowing correct doctrine, obeying some of the commands, and worshiping in the church are not enough. The church must have above all a heartfelt love for Jesus Christ and all his Word. Sincere love for Christ results in single-hearted devotion to him, purity of life and a love of the truth.”
For the revelation awaits an appointed time; it speaks of the end and will not prove false. Though it linger, wait for it; it will certainly come and will not delay. Habakkuk 2:3
Note: Strong’s Concordance [Heb 4150 mow’ed] – an appointment – fixed time or season
Concerning Tribe: Ezekiel 37:15-24
One Nation Under One King
15 The word of the Lord came to me: 16 “Son of man, take a stick of wood and write on it, ‘Belonging to Judah and the Israelites associated with him.’ Then take another stick of wood, and write on it, ‘Belonging to Joseph (that is, to Ephraim) and all the Israelites associated with him.’ 17 Join them together into one stick so that they will become one in your hand.
18 “When your people ask you, ‘Won’t you tell us what you mean by this?’ 19 say to them, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: I am going to take the stick of Joseph—which is in Ephraim’s hand—and of the Israelite tribes associated with him, and join it to Judah’s stick. I will make them into a single stick of wood, and they will become one in my hand.’ 20 Hold before their eyes the sticks you have written on 21 and say to them, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: I will take the Israelites out of the nations where they have gone. I will gather them from all around and bring them back into their own land. 22 I will make them one nation in the land, on the mountains of Israel. There will be one king over all of them and they will never again be two nations or be divided into two kingdoms. 23 They will no longer defile themselves with their idols and vile images or with any of their offenses, for I will save them from all their sinful backsliding, and I will cleanse them. They will be my people, and I will be their God.
24 “‘My servant David will be king over them, and they will all have one shepherd. They will follow my laws and be careful to keep my decrees.
Tribe – Strong’s Concordance [Greek 5443 phule] from 5453 (compare 5444); an offshoot, i.e. race or clan: -- kindred, tribe.
Jamison, Fausset and Brown Commentary: “Stick – the tribal rod. The union of the two rods was a prophecy in action of the brotherly union which is to reunite the ten tribes and Judah….the first result of both being joined by the spirit of life to God is that they become joined to one another under the one covenant King, Messiah – David.”
As he says in Hosea: “I will call them ‘my people’ who are not my people; and I will call her ‘my loved one’ who is not my loved one,” and, “It will happen that in the very place where it was said to them, ‘You are not my people,’ they will be called ‘sons of the living God.’ ” Romans 6:25-26
He of whom these things are said belonged to a different tribe, and no one from that tribe has ever served at the altar. For it is clear that our Lord descended from Judah, and in regard to that tribe Moses said nothing about priests. And what we have said is even more clear if another priest like Melchizedek appears, one who has become a priest not on the basis of a regulation as to his ancestry but on the basis of the power of an indestructible life. For it is declared: “You are a priest forever, in the order of Melchizedek.” Hebrews 7:13-17
If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise. Galatians 3:29
Personal Note: The New Tribe is made up of people who are overcomers and pillars in the temple. These people have experienced death to self and have been resurrected unto the life of Christ. This is the royal order of priesthood after the order of Melchizedek, a spiritual tribe. Abraham knew Melchizedek was not of this world and tithed to him. These are the ones with eyes to see, ears to hear and hearts to obey; a people looking for the King and His glory. These are those who are given spiritual blessings in the heavenlies and a name written by Christ. They ride under His Banner of Love and are raised up and seated with Jesus in heavenly places with authority. They are always looking for the King’s, the Messiah’s return. They are a supernatural people serving a supernatural God!
The people have grown dull in hearing and dull in seeing. Their zeal for me has grown lukewarm and does not continue to burn hot. I am sounding my voice, my trumpet, and I say to my house and to my people to get ready. Forsake the things which have made a bid for your heart and even some things which have already stolen the affections of your heart from your first love.
