On May 25, I heard, “Stop spinning your wheels, My Child, for GRACE and the Holy Spirit have come to RELEASE you from your own efforts. MY “Spinning Wheels of Ezekiel” shall propel you forward as you look to Me! The Chariots of Fire have come to carry you into your future!
Beloved. Many of My Own feel as if you are “spinning your wheels.” You are stuck in the wilderness and making no progress. But I am sending Help, My Child. By My Hand alone, you shall move forward into your destiny. In Me, you live and MOVE and have your being.
Those who wait upon the LORD shall renew your strength. I have bent down to you and heard your cry. And I am lifting you up from the pit of despair and out of the miry clay; I have set your feet upon the Rock and made your footsteps firm. No longer shall you be hindered by natural circumstances but I shall propel you supernaturally into My Perfect Plans for you.
Wherever the Spirit goes, you shall go. Follow Me, Beloved. No longer shall your efforts be fruitless. No longer strive in your own strength, My Child, but REST in the finished work of the Cross. The steps of a righteous man and woman are ordered by the LORD, for I am He who takes delight in your journey!
I am the same yesterday, today, and forever. I am He who rides upon the cherub and flies; I am He who comes swiftly on the Wings of the Wind to save you. I have made a Way for you through the wilderness of this world. Underneath you are My Everlasting Arms and the enemy shall flee before Us.
Ride upon the Fiery Chariot of the Spirit by faith; like the Wind, the enemy will not know where you came from or where you are going. Let the Spirit lift you up and carry you to your destination. I never meant for you to navigate through life on your own, Beloved. Trust in Me alone and not in your own efforts.
No longer shall you “spin your wheels,” but the Spirit shall lead you and guide you and carry you above the circumstances you can’t get past yourself. Climb aboard the Glorious Chariots of the Spirit and let me do all the heavy lifting.
Do not despair, My Child. The Wheels are turning! Not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit,” says the Lord of Hosts.”
“Do the HEAVY LIFTING”: To do the work involved in something; the most difficult part of a task. The most demanding part of an endeavor; work requiring the most effort, resources, or consideration. To do the serious, difficult, or arduous work.
“THE WHEELS ARE TURNING”: Progress is being or continues to be made. A situation or process is progressing, moving forward, continuing to develop.
“SPINNING YOUR WHEELS” : Expending effort with no result. To neither progress nor regress, but remain in a fixed, neutral position. To make no progress despite making an effort; to get nowhere. To exert great effort but not get anywhere, to try hard without result, to take part in a fruitless activity.
“THE SPINNING WHEELS OF EZEKIEL ”
“Wherever the Spirit would go, they would go, and the WHEELS would rise along with them, because the Spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels. When the creatures moved, they also moved; when the creatures stood still, they also stood still; and when the creatures rose from the ground, the wheels rose along with them, because the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels.” Ezekiel 1:20-21
“Ezekiel’s vision of the four wheels dramatically illustrates the omnipresence and omniscience of God. These wheels were associated with the “four living creatures” (Ezekiel 1:4), who were later described (Ezekiel 10:5-20) as cherubim, angelic beings appointed as guardians of the holiness of God. (Gotquestions)
The WHEELS of Ezekiel are symbolic of God’s divine providence: “Divine Providence, represented by the wheels, produces changes. Sometimes one spoke of the wheel is uppermost, sometimes another, but the motion of the wheel on its own axletree is regular and steady. We need not despond in adversity; the wheels are turning round and will raise us in due time. The rings or rims of the wheels were so vast that when put in motion, the prophet was afraid to look upon them. The consideration of the height and depth of God’s counsel should awe us. They were full of eyes roundabout. The motions of Providence are all directed by infinite Wisdom. All events are determined by the eyes of the Lord, which are in every place beholding the evil and the good; for there is no such thing as chance or fortune. ” (Matthew Henry’s Bible Commentary)
Bible scholars believe the wheels display the omnipotence and omnipresence of God. Ezekiel’s wheels are said to be a symbol of moving forward with the presence of God. As we study Ezekiel’s calling and visions, we can think about the Spirit of God resting on him while moving him forward into the prophetic ministry. When the hand of the Lord takes hold of us, we must be willing and ready to move forward with Him. As we worship and respond in obedience to the moving of the Spirit, heavenly things can be released upon us that we couldn’t have made happen ourselves. (Carolyn Tucker)
