Five

Eternity before the foundation of the world …

I have an assignment for each of you,” thundered the voice of Almighty God. “You will leave Heaven to go into the assignments I have for you on Earth. While you are Here, you will be filled with all the gifts and talents you will need to do what I have called you to do while on Earth …”

“Abba, Abba,” shouted little Pre-born Spirit Joyce, her tiny voice piping up so she could be heard. “Why can’t we stay here with You?” She whined the whine of a child who loved being with her Father.

Almighty God looked at the twinkling lights surrounding Him. These were the pre-born spirits who would become children sent to populate the Earth. There were billions upon billions around Him. He had created these beings for His pleasure to do His will on the Earth. He had to help them understand why they were created for His purposes.

“Come to Me, children,” He beckoned. The pre-borns gathered around their beloved Creator as the angels gently guided them closer to Father God.

As God gathered these much-loved, created-to-be-human children before His throne, another soft and gentle but ever-present voice spoke, “Father, may I speak?”

“Of course, My Son.”

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believed in Him should not perish but have eternal life. God sent His Son to the world not to condemn the world but to set men free. I am the Son of the Living God. At creation, I created each of you to be a testimony of My presence in the world. You were created to go forth into the entire world to preach about Me and the authority and ability I have to save. As you are sent into the Earth, I will be with you even unto the end of time. I will always be with you. When it is your season, the Holy Spirit of God will fill you and you will do great exploits. The Kingdom of God will be in your hearts and you will be ministers of God. Some of you will fall away for a season. Others of you will fall away forever. But I shall raise a remnant that will joyfully and lovingly do the work of the Kingdom of God. Do not despise your assignments. All things work together for them who love God and for them who are called according to His purposes. You will all be used mightily in carrying out My commandments on the Earth. Do you understand?”

“Yes, Son of God,” the pre-borns shouted in awed unison.

“Do you love the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit Who will fill you when the season comes?” asked Jesus.

“Yes, Son of God, we do. We love you!” they shouted eagerly.

“Then attend to the things the Father has for you so you will be prepared when you reach your temporary destination,” urged Jesus Christ, the Son of the Living God. “And lo, I am with you always,” He assured them as His voice faded.

The pre-borns were ecstatic! They knew the story of Jesus. They had known Him from the foundation of the world. They had played with Him before He went to Earth the first time. Since His return, much of His time was spent interceding for the inhabitants of the Earth. Now though, He had taken special time to speak to them about their upcoming assignments.

The angels fluttered back and forth overhead. They were as excited as the pre-borns to see Jesus, their brother and Creator. He was as a brother to them all in spite of the fact He shared in the role as their Master and Creator as well.

And now, God the Father spoke to the pre-borns.

“I will divide you into many categories and groups as you prepare to enter the Earth-realm,” His voice thundered. Heaven shook as God spoke to His creation.

“You all have different missions. Therefore, each of you will have different gifts. Some of you will be healers, some lawyers, some teachers, and many other different occupations needed on Earth.”

Windows flashed in the Heavens around God and the pre-borns as God spoke. In each of the many windows, humans were doing the things they would soon be doing. Each window represented a different era of time in which the pre-borns would be released into the world beneath them.

The pre-borns excitedly gathered around the windows to see if they could discover what they would be in their life to come on Earth. They observed in awe as they viewed thousands of human beings performing the tasks God had designated for them before the foundation of the Earth was formed.

“When you go to Earth, you will be as Jesus was—an infant. I will assign angels to each of you to keep you until you return to Me,” God continued as He showed them the many areas and fields they would go into.

“As Jesus said, many of you will turn away from serving Me for a time. Many will turn away forever. But I will have a remnant. I am God. I lie not,” God concluded.

As quickly as He had manifested to be with the pre-borns is as quickly as He turned the training over to the many angels He had assigned for just this purpose.
