Australia Visitation
by Mike DeLorenzo
(11.5 x 15.3)
This painting, of course, is of Australia. I chose various scenes of Australia. Right down the middle of the painting you can
see the cross with the face of our Lord on it. In the Bible there are two things that Jesus seeks after:
1. Jesus is seeking the Lost that they may be found.
Matthew 18:10-12 (New King James Version)
The Parable of the Lost Sheep
10 "Take heed that you do not despise one of these little ones, for I say to you that in heaven their angels always see the face of My Father who is in heaven.
11 For the Son of Man has come to save that which was lost.[a]
12 "What do you think? If a man has a hundred sheep, and one of them goes astray, does he not leave the ninety-nine and go to the mountains to seek the one that is straying?
A. The second thing Jesus is looking for is those that would worship Him in spirit and in truth.
John 4:23-25 (New King James Version)
23 But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him. 24 God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”
25 The woman said to Him, "I know that Messiah is coming” (who is called Christ). "When He comes, He will tell us all things.”
My heart is to see the lost that they may be found, and those that would worship Him in Spirit and in truth.
In the painting there is an outline of the map of Australia.
Sydney Opera House (1957 - 1973) is a masterpiece of late modern architecture. It is admired internationally and proudly treasured by the people of Australia.
In its short lifetime, Sydney Opera House has earned a reputation as a world-class performing arts centre and become a symbol of both Sydney and the Australian nation.
You can see a man over the top of the Opera House in worship. God is calling forth His worshippers in Australia…Hill Songs music has gone all over the world, out of Australia.
The Bible says in Psalm 102:18 This will be written for the generation to come,
That a people yet to be created may praise the LORD.
Uluru
It is the world's largest monolith (rock) rising 318m above the desert floor with a circumference of 8 km. It is considered one of the great Wonders of the World. It is located in the Kata Tjuta National Park, which is owned and run by the Anangu, the traditional owners.
The Aborigines believe that there it is hollow below the ground, which holds much energy and is where their 'Dreamtime' began. God wants to pour out is power on them, give them His dreams and visions.
Yet in the last days, God will pour out His Spirit on all Men. Acts 2:17-21
17 ‘ And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God,
That I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh;
Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,
Your young men shall see visions,
Your old men shall dream dreams.
18 And on My menservants and on My maidservants
I will pour out My Spirit in those days;
And they shall prophesy.
19 I will show wonders in heaven above
And signs in the earth beneath:
Blood and fire and vapor of smoke.
20 The sun shall be turned into darkness,
And the moon into blood,
Before the coming of the great and awesome day of the LORD.
21 And it shall come to pass
That whoever calls on the name of the LORD
Shall be saved.
Jesus is about to release His power and His dreams into Australia. I recently had a friend go to Australia to minister there, and a prophetic word came to him that when you step on this monolith, it will release miracles in your ministry in Australia.
Twelve Apostles is one of the most photographed coastal scenes in the world
A. The Lord wants to release His apostolic authority in Australia, along with signs and wonders. You can see footprints in the sand leading to the cross, with the face of the Lord on top of the cross. Again, the Lord is seeking to save that which is lost, and when we have problems, we become so ONE with Jesus, that He not only picks us up and carries us, but we see only one set of prints in the sand because He’s in us, and we are in Him. God wants to release apostolic authority into Australia. The Gospel of the Kingdom comes with power and sign and wonders.
B. 2 Corinthians 12:11-12 (King James Version)
11I am become a fool in glorying; ye have compelled me: for I ought to have been commended of you: for in nothing am I behind the very chiefest apostles, though I be nothing. 12Truly the signs of an apostle were wrought among you in all patience, in signs, and wonders, and mighty deeds.
The City of Perth, Australia
The PS Decoy, built in 1878, is a regular sight on the Swan River here at Perth, Western Australia. This same vessel actually made a crossing of the Great Australian Bight in the early 1900's, carrying some 90 miners from the Murray River in South Australia to Fremantle. The boat in the painting says, "Faith in Jesus”. My prayer is that many in Australia would come to Jesus.
Milla Milla Falls
This waterfall is on the Atherton Tablelands, southwest of Cairns. It is widely regarded as one of the most beautiful waterfalls in Australia. It is on every tourist bus "hit-list” and you can drive right to it. The Lord once again is going to cause His rivers to flow. Ezekiel 47 talks about the water to swim in.
Jesus says: 37In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, if any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink. 38He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water
The sail boat has the Australian flag on it, and the Hebrew name of God Adonai.
THE FLAG
Our Australian flag was born in 1901, when Federation occurred. The Flag denotes our global position by the use of the Southern Cross, the brightest star in the Southern Hemisphere. The Federation Star (sometimes referred to as the Commonwealth Star) directly under the Union Jack has seven points representing the States and Territories of Australia. All the stars have seven points except for the small star which has five. In Bible numerics, seven means completion - Seal of God (i.e. seven days of the week)
THE COLORS
The three colors of blue, red and white were used in the Tabernacle for the curtains, according to God's specifications. The white linen represents the white robes of righteousness given by the Lord to his people. Red signifies the blood covenant fulfilled in Jesus. Blue is the national color of (Ancient) Israel, and of God's right to rule over men. In Numbers 15:38-41, Israel was instructed to wear a 'ribband of blue' as a remembrance to keep God's Commandments and to be Holy throughout the generations. The Union Jack is formed from (Ancient) Israel's three national colors with the exception of purple which denotes Royalty.
Adonai means, "steward administrator, master, or Lord.” The addition of ai to adon intensifies or elevates its meaning, changing it to mean "the ultimate Lord, the Supreme Lord, or Lord of all.” The title Adonai, therefore, emphasizes the sovereignty of God, the Lordship of God. The meaning of Adonai in the Hebrew language, God is Lord, clearly defines our role as servants of our Lord, the God with outright ownership of our life and all things in heaven and elarth. This defines our role as servants.

My Mission and the Mike DeLorenzo Art Gallery is to inspire and to share the revelational aspect of art in God's coming Kingdom.
I am inspired to paint this art which gives insight into the heart and mind of our Lord and Savior.
