Both Jesus and Paul spoke of how the end of this age would come like birth pangs upon a woman about to give birth. As we see in Isaiah 60:1-5 the glory of the Lord will be revealed through His people during the times of greatest darkness. It seems now that the darkness is prevailing all over the earth, but another great spiritual contraction is coming upon the Body of Christ that will be a sign to all that the kingdom of God will come, and will certainly prevail. New Covenant church life was supernatural from the beginning. This coming spiritual contraction is going to be heaven touching the earth through God's people, and a witness of how much greater the power of the kingdom is over any power on the earth. We are called to be seated with Christ in the heavenly places. This is not just a doctrine, but is to be a reality. We can experience heaven every day, see Him sitting on His throne, and abide with Him there in the Spirit. Many Christians are about to do this. Many are going to become more at home in the heavenly realm than the natural. These will live the greatest adventure that can be experienced on this earth--true New Covenant Christianity as it was meant to be. Heaven is going to touch the earth through them in the midst of the greatest darkness--and they are going to push the darkness back.
