John 12:24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone.

Beginning in 2008 the vision and bible school that God so graciously gave Wade Taylor beginning in 1968 came to an abrupt end, falling into the ground and dying.-

We now wait for God to raise up and bring forth His seed of promise in another, that the vision fail not.

Communication From God
Charles Haun

Communication is necessary, for God both needs and uses messengers.

The Lord did not communicate directly to those within the seven churches in Revelation. Rather, He spoke to the angel [messengers] of these churches. Today, it is the same. We do not go to church and wait until the Lord arrives in person to speak to us. We hear His Word through His messenger.

Without communication, we cannot know the will of God. I heard much about "the will of God" in the 1950's. I heard less and less about it in the 1960's and onward. After eleven years as a missionary under a mission board, I resigned in 1971 to teach in a Bible school. A short time later, I received from the mission board I had served under a questionnaire which listed eighty possible reasons as to why I left the mission field. In vain I searched for my reason. Sadly, I added number eighty-one to the list, "The will of God." By the 1970's hardly anyone was seemingly concerned with the will of God. Was this because there was a breakdown in communications with the Lord?

He still seeks messengers and prophets. Are they as hard to find today as they were in Isaiah's day? "Whom shall I send," God cries out in Isaiah 6:8, "And who will go for us?"

He is yet seeking out those who have hearing ears that He might put His Word within them. If we will respond and make ourselves available to Him, He is well able to accomplish His purpose through us.

It is urgent that we prepare our heart, lay all things aside, and meet with the Lord to hear His communications.

"Be ready in the morning" Exodus 34:2.

"Early [earnestly] will I seek You" Psalm 63:1.

"Those who seek Me early [diligently] will
find Me" Prov 8:17.

All things must be laid aside. The Lord desires those who are ready to meet with Him and receive that which He has for them.

The Lord said to Moses, "Come up unto mount Sinai in the morning, and present thyself there to me in the top of the mount" (Exodus 34:2).

Our meeting and communicating with the Lord is necessary. Beginning with Adam, the Lord has spoken to and worked through human instruments and He continues to do so.

Therefore, in order to accomplish the will of God, there must be a meeting of His mind with the mind of man, that the mind of God might find its desired expression and outworking.
