Dutch Sheets: Healing Our History, Repairing Our Breaches (Isaiah 58:12)
Dutch speaks at Grace City Church in Harrison, AR, on 6/28/2019. Quotes: Maybe if I want to double portion, I better connect with yesterday. Maybe if I don't want a curse on a generation, I have to connect with the fathers and the mothers. And maybe if I don't, Malachi said, a dislocation comes and curses flow through history, not blessing. He said, "You'll rebuild the ancient ruins. You'll raise up the age-old foundations, that which is good."
You’ve been “blessed to be a blessing.” (Genesis 12:2) Pay it forward!

The Lord took me to Isaiah 58, "the great fasting chapter." He said, one of the things that can happen from this in verse 12, those from among you will rebuild the ancient ruins. In other words, I don't want you to just bulldoze this stuff over out of the way and start over. Sometimes you just have to do that, but where history's concerned, and generations are concerned, He wants some things rebuilt. Because sometimes you can't get to your tomorrow destiny without yesterday. Where is the Lord God of Elijah? Maybe the power I need for today is found in my yesterday.
I don't want it bulldozed. I want you to reconnect and raise up. You'll be called the repairer of the breach. Another word for a "dislocation" would be a "breach". History, experiences, breaches, and now, life can't flow through that place because something happened there that cut off the blessing. You be called "The repairer of the breach, the restorer of the streets in which to dwell."
Then as a practical application of this, one day I was, this was many years ago, probably close to 2000. I was administering Christ for the nations and that's a Bible school in Dallas. It was referenced this morning as a part of, there, Christ For The Nations at one point, was probably, it was one of the most significant centers for what God was doing in the earth, in all the earth. And a lot of the roots of it come from right here. And we heard that this afternoon, Arkansas.
But I was there ministering and I was praying, "Lord, get this place back to the fullness of why you created this place." So I felt like they'd lost some things. And I was doing it publicly because everybody knew that was true. It's not like the place was in sin. It was just that what God had put in Gordon Lindsay's heart that he wanted to do there with the signs and the wonders, and the prayer, and just all the, it had lost some of its strength.
And so the Lord just said to me that morning, I want you to give your session to praying for that to be restored rather than just teach. And so, I was up leading in prayer and I heard the Lord say to me, "I want you to agree in prayer with Gordon Lindsay." Well, he'd been dead for 30 years. And I said, "I don't think we're supposed to try to communicate with the dead. I'm not sure I can do that. I must not be God." And it was one of those "duh" moments for me when the Lord said, "Well, his prayers aren't dead." I said, "Well, I knew that." So then He said to me, until this generation comes into agreement with what I promised Him I would do, and what He asked me to do, now, listen, because this is what He said to me, "Until that happens, until this generation comes into agreement with what I promised him, what he asked me, I cannot," He'd say, "I won't."
He said, "I cannot do what I promised him I would do". And he reminded me of Hebrews 11, which we've heard about today. Hebrews 11, the great hall of faith, all of the great things that men and women of faith accomplished. Some of it through difficult, painful persecution, and we heard about it last night, I believe. But then He says to us, "There are some who were great people of faith and did not receive what I promised", which seems a bit contradictory at first. Well, if He said it and they believed it, why didn't they get it?
But He tells us the reason in verses 39 and 40, "They gained approval for their faith, but they didn't receive what was promised because God had provided something better for us." That apart from us, they could not be, and here's the word, "Apart from us, that they could not be," And it's a very strong word, "finished, brought to fullness." One definition, "mature". What I started in them cannot be matured without you. Some things I've decided that I'll start in one generation and I'll mature it in the next generation. "Finish" is a good translation. "What I started with them can't be 'finished' without you." One definition was, "reach its intended goal". Isn't that amazing? "What I promised them and what they started, cannot reach its intended goal without the next generation."
