When God Is Quiet

Out of my experience with our Father, when He gets quiet, that means He is working on something for us.  I’m sure some of you could probably add to this, but for today’s message, please read on…

If God is quiet it usually means He is working on something for you, and for you to Stand Fast in Faith, having the whole armor on, and continue in the heart/mind of worship and mouth of praise.

Ephesians 6:10-19

10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.

11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;

15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;

16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.

17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:

18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;

19 And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel,

20 For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.

Philippians 1:27

27 Only let your conversation be as it becometh the gospel of Christ: that whether I come and see you, or else be absent, I may hear of your affairs, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel;…

Galatians 5:1

1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.

So whatever “trial of your faith” you may be going through, know that the Lord Knows it and has established your steps.  So Stand Fast in the liberty He provided, Stand Fast with each other in the faith of the gospel, put on and be secured in the full armor of the gospel of Jesus Christ, and help others do the same.

The Lord is taking you to the next step, level of maturity, so let your heart worship Him and your mouth praise Him along the way.  His Love Never Fails…..

Amen.

All God, All Man

Heaven and Earth brought together in One.  Why?  To redeem the “lack” of the lower realm: Earth.  To “fix” the decaying realm: Earth.  To Remove those things that were causing the destruction and decay of the lower realm: Earth….  Mankind….. Male and Female = Adam.

So God by His own arm, breathed forth His Will, and spoke His Word into existence….. Yeshua, Immanuel, Jesus Christ was made manifest in… IN the Earth… to Redeem it…. Man and all the creature in to a state of LIFE = restored existence IN God.

Is it Done IN you, yet?   Has all that Jesus Christ did, for us ALL, been made revealed and understood in your own soul?

Until you can understand what He did and why, how then are you going to be able to WALK in Him… WALK in that Blessing?   That is what is called being BLIND….

BUT, Once your EYES are OPENED (Luke 24) and you REALIZE that the One talking with you and walking with you (in you) IS Immanuel, the Risen One that was alive, was dead, but is RISEN from the dead and is ALIVE FOR EVER MORE…. THEN you are Changed and Transformed Out of DECAY AND DEATH, and IN TO ETERNAL LIFE…. That DIVINE NATURE (2 Peter 1) escaping the corruption that was in the world. You behold Him...See Him...and know that it is the Lord...and your change comes forth.

Romans 8 tells us that As Soon AS the sons of God mature and come forth …THEN the Creature will ALSO BE LIBERATED from decay and death.

(BE REDEEMED, TRANSFORMED, CHANGED in to the SON, Put on Eternal Life, the DIVINE NATURE THAT HAS NO SIN or DEATH)

So, ALLOW the LORD, that Holy Spirit (2 Corinthians 3:17), to WASH you with the washing of the Water by the WORD (that is spirit and life John 6:63), and bring you (present you) to Himself a glorious church

(many membered Son of God = Jesus Christ appearing in the EARTH again yet it is through His many member BODY – You) (Ephesians 5:26-27).

Let the Lord, that Holy Spirit, to write upon your heart and put in your mind the Blood Covenant, making manifest Jesus Christ In You, revealing Jesus Christ in you, appearing of Jesus Christ in you.

And That Appearance (coming) of THE PERFECT ONE (1 Corinthians 13:12) Will Affect and Change and Release You From All Decay and Death.  THE Perfect One appearing and making Himself known to you…. KNOWN TO YOU…. WILL affect you and cause your Soul to Manifest, Birth His Nature… DIVINE NATURE thru your Earthly Flesh.

Heaven and Earth now brought together In You…. By the Grace and Eternal Life making Himself Known to and In your soul.

For this cause, He is come into our world… your world… our souls… your soul….. 

Receive the Breath of the Father … breathing His Son Eternal Life in you, today. 

Heaven and Earth IS brought together, redeemed in and by the Son… so that Your Spirit (heaven) AND Body (earth) can REAP of the BLESSINGS of the SON …. TODAY.  Let Faith Work and Receive Him.

Amen.

The Ultimate Offering

Malachi 3:10-12

It is more than money... in understanding we see that Jesus Christ has given Himself For Us, and In That Giving, That Offering unto the Lord, we too are blessed and able to say "In the Sacrifice and Offering of Jesus Christ... in This We Give to You Father Ourselves" Amen.... for All Your Desire. Amen.

In Abraham, it is said, that even his unborn offspring … it was accounted unto them as giving to the Lord, even though they were not born yet.

So it is in Christ Jesus, it is accounted unto Righteousness towards us in His Giving of Himself…. and we reap of the ultimate sacrifice and offering unto our Lord, and Father.

This is intense, and deep, and I pray that the revelation of His word here will destroy all that is not God and Righteousness, and set you free,… running and rejoicing in the Lord Jesus Christ  daily.! Amen.

Happy Resurrection Day!

Amen.

House of Prayer

God’s House is a House of Prayer.  Yes, we know this, but today we are reminded that this is God’s will concerning us.

In Isaiah 56:7 tells us this: (read all 4-12 to hear God’s heart)

7 Even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer: their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted upon mine altar; for mine house shall be called an house of prayer for all people.

In Matthew 21:13-14 And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves.  And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple; and he healed them.

Also in Mark 11:17 and Luke 19:46 we see the same passage above.

God’s House of Prayer.  Prayer means a communion with God.  It isn’t a ritual or daily habit.  It is about daily communing with God as we walk through our daily activities and talking to Him, and He to us, about His directives for this world. …. whether “world” means your own household or city or state or country or universe…. 

Prayer is Communing with God our Father daily, whether in talking to Him or listening to Him.   Prayer is also just being available.   How?  By being open to Him at any moment to use us in a situation...  Being in a heart of worship towards Him.  True worship is an attitude of heart, not lots of songs and dance and noise, nor is it in Jerusalem…  As Jesus said, “true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth…”

John 4:23-24 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.  God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.

John 14:17-20 Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.  I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.  Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also. At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you.

That is a wonderful scripture, even more so as we receive the Holy Spirit revealing it…. Then it is Life.

Being assembled as God’s house of prayer is not to be grievous, even though He may have us at times be in heavy travail within our spirit.  But it is His holy Spirit that is travailing/praying in us according to the Mind of God for each situation.

Romans 8:26-27 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.

So we need to learn to yield to the holy Spirit of truth and life that has made His home within us as He prays according to the need at hand.  God’s House of Prayer.

Amen.

Resurrection and Life

Resurrection and Life

John 11:22-27

22 But I know, that even now, whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, God will give it thee.

23 Jesus saith unto her, Thy brother shall rise again.

24 Martha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day.

25 Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:

26 And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?

27 She saith unto him, Yea, Lord: I believe that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, which should come into the world.

RESURRECTION and LIFE

Martha was looking for the resurrection to come and He was right in front of her.

Some still think that way. May your eyes be opened to see the Lord within your soul today.

Amen

Baker and Butler

Baker and Butler (Bread and Wine)

Genesis 40 tells us of this story and how Joseph interpreted their dreams that the Lord had given them. Yet this message is not about that story, but it is to share with you a revealing of what the Baker and Butler are in God’s Kingdom.

Baker is symbolic of one that represents the Bread, which is symbolic of the BODY OF CHRIST, the nourishment to the body, the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ which was given for the life of the world.

Butler is symbolic of one that represents the Cup, which is symbolic of the Wine, BLOOD of Jesus Christ, and the Spirit of Life.

John 6:51  I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live forever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.

John 6:53-58  Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you.  Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.  For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.  He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him.  As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me.  This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever.

Luke 22:19-20  And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me.   Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you.

Even in the revealing of the Baker and the Butler, we see that Jesus Christ has restored even this relationship to the King.  Just as He did concerning the fall of Adam and that nature, we see in this event, that Jesus Christ has become the Officer (the one who officiates the service to the King), and has become the substance (Bread and Wine, Basket and Cup, Body and Blood) the Eternal Sacrifice unto God for us Forever … alive forevermore.   THE Priest and Eternal Sacrifice that was alive, died, and lives forevermore.    THE Resurrection and Eternal Life – Our Lord!

Amen.

FASTING

Isaiah 58:5-13

5 Is it such a fast that I have chosen? a day for a man to afflict his soul? is it to bow down his head as a bulrush, and to spread sackcloth and ashes under him? wilt thou call this a fast , and an acceptable day to the LORD?

6 Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke?

7 Is it not to deal thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring the poor that are cast out to thy house? when thou seest the naked, that thou cover him; and that thou hide not thyself from thine own flesh?

8 Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness shall go before thee; the glory of the LORD shall be thy rearward.

9 Then shalt thou call, and the LORD shall answer; thou shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I am. If thou take away from the midst of thee the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking vanity;

10 And if thou draw out thy soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul; then shall thy light rise in obscurity, and thy darkness be as the noonday:

11 And the LORD shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make fat thy bones: and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not.

12 And they that shall be of thee shall build the old waste places: thou shalt raise up the foundations of many generations; and thou shalt be called, The repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in.

13 If thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath, from doing thy pleasure on my holy day; and call the sabbath a delight, the holy of the LORD, honourable; and shalt honour him, not doing thine own ways, nor finding thine own pleasure, nor speaking thine own words:

14 Then shalt thou delight thyself in the LORD; and I will cause thee to ride upon the high places of the earth, and feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.

Even though this is from the old testament, we still see God’s Desire for us towards others.  In this is love.  God’s purpose through His Son Jesus Christ, and by His Son now, in and through us, His Visible Body that is moved by His Holy Spirit. 

The Body without the Spirit is dead, so if Faith without works dead.

Fasting Daily in God’s true fast.

Amen.

Eyes on the Lord

Keep your eyes focused on the Lord… let Him direct your steps… especially in which meetings to go to. He wants to feed you what YOU are needing.  Go because He is instructing you, and not according to the happenings or the persona that is there.  Go by the leading of the Holy Spirit in you, so He can Feed you what You are needing, and so His Will can come forth through you and prosper more.  It may not be a ‘cushioned’ seat but it will be the ‘right’ seat for His working in you.

Passover Feast has begun yet we don’t celebrate the feasts of old anymore… Why?  Because Jesus Christ has fulfilled all the ordinances and statues, which were a working of the flesh, that was under the law of sin and death.

YET… Because Jesus Christ Has Fulfilled all those feasts and requirements, it is clearly understood that HE HAS BECOME OUR FEASTS and WORTHY TO BE CELEBRATED!!

Jesus Christ is our Passover. 

1 Corinthians 5:7-8 Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our Passover is sacrificed for us:  Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

Purge out the old leaven, is talking of the ordinances of the old law, and traditions of man in religious ceremonies that were done for the saving of the soul.  Allow the lies, and deceptions, and seductions of doctrine to be no more a part of your worship.  Worship the Lord in Spirit and in Truth.

The Passover’s key element is about The Blood that was shed.  Without the shedding of blood there was no remission of sin.  So, we celebrate the Passover that is about the human blood sacrifice of the Perfect One: the Lamb of God Jesus Christ which commemorates the removing of the debt of sin which was death, the sin itself, and the effects of sin.  Sure, I could have just said “sin,” but let’s get in to the real working of what is happening when we Receive the Lord Jesus Christ as our Saviour, Passover.  Allow His Blood to be APPLIED in all areas of your life: spirit, soul, and body.

Jesus Christ, eating of His body, and drinking of His blood…. this is a sincere action of the heart.  You become One with the sacrifice you eat of.  That is why they were not to eat of sacrifices given to idols.  In other words, don’t participate with your mind or body, in the behaviors and rituals of the lies, seductions, and deceptions…. being a form of godliness but denying the true One and Power.

As a human sacrifice, the Lamb of God, He gave His Body and Soul to God so we can have LIBERTY.  Now that is Power.  What an action of will.  He is our shield, cover, guard, purifier, etc… and identity… so it is okay to let go of the old ways of thinking about yourself and others, and be renewed in the mind of Christ, being transformed and changed into the Perfect One: Jesus Christ the Lamb and Son of God.  Married/Joined to the Eternal Living Sacrifice… Wow!!  Walking with HIM in His daily actions…. oh I pray you hear this!

FREEDOM in His KINGDOM equals LIBERTY WALKING.  In Sincerity and Truth of all that God Is and has Done for us all, we can….. CAN Walk in Freedom, Liberty from all Harm and Lack.  His Power Provides.

From Death… we can Walk in Life

From Sickness… we can Walk in Health

From Mental… we can Walk in Peace and a Sound Mind

From Void… we can Walk in Fulfilment, Contentment, and Purpose

and the list goes on, and on…..

Jesus Christ, in all that He did and all that He is…..  Jesus Christ is God’s Power… For Us to be Blessed by.

God’s Will towards us…. So we can Walk in Liberty away from ALL Decay.

Receive… Receive God’s Blessing, Jesus Christ.   HEAR and RECEIVE as He Speaks and declares to your soul all that He has done to Save us.  Let THAT WORD of God be engrafted in your Soul, and allow the Birthing of the Savior Jesus Christ to wash and cleanse you: in spirit, mind, soul and body. 

Keep Your Eyes on the Lord, and let that be why you do what you do… and go where you go.

Amen.

Occupy Till I Come

Luke 19:7-15 And Zacchaeus stood, and said unto the Lord; Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have taken any thing from any man by false accusation, I restore him fourfold.  And Jesus said unto him, This day is salvation come to this house, forsomuch as he also is a son of Abraham.  For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.  And as they heard these things, he added and spake a parable, because he was nigh to Jerusalem, and because they thought that the kingdom of God should immediately appear.  He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return.  And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, Occupy till I come.  But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after him, saying, We will not have this man to reign over us.  And it came to pass, that when he was returned, having received the kingdom, then he commanded these servants to be called unto him, to whom he had given the money, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading.
 
Jesus was speaking the parable towards that generation’s religious leaders that were not handling the kingdom and its goods properly. His disciples also had been wondering when the Kingdom of God should come. They thought the kingdom of God was to appear immediately, but clearly in scriptures by the leading of the Holy Spirit, He has revealed to us that the Kingdom of God is Righteousness, Peace, and Joy IN the Holy Spirit (Romans 14:17). And the Kingdom of God was WITHIN YOU (Luke 17:21-22).  And that we are PRESSING INTO THE KINGDOM too (Luke 16:16).
 
So the coming and receiving of HIS KINGDOM was a working that was taking place in the SOUL’s of Mankind (male/female).
 
It was the removing of the statutes and ordinances of the old law of sin and death, which was the working of the flesh.  It was the removing of the Kingdom in the natural sense, out of natural Jerusalem.  And a bringing in, receiving, establishing of the Kingdom of God, in the New Order of God, in His TRUE Habitation which would be IN Souls, by His Holy Spirit in the working of the Son within each soul.
 
Ephesians 5:25-27 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.
 
Who in this scripture is doing the “sanctifying and cleansing?  Jesus Christ the Son. He receives us to Himself….
 
The Preparation of every Soul to the Receiving of the Son… the coming of the Son Jesus Christ … within You.  YET, in the very working of the Holy Spirit, it is revealed that it is the Father that is revealing the Son to us and drawing us to the Son!  YET, in the very working of the Father, we see the Son revealing the Father to us also!  And in THIS… we find that there is ONE SPIRIT all along working within us to reveal to us and cause our Souls to KNOW HIM, the ETERNAL ONE… Eternal LIFE….
 
1 John 5:20  And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.
 
This Eternal Life is the One that has been working in us all along to BRING Us, REDEEM Us back into Himself.
 
We enter His Garden, yet we also are become His Garden to walk in and dwell in. Same with His Kingdom we receive God’s Kingdom which is Righteousness, Peace, and Joy in the Holy Spirit, and now come in us, and we enter into it too.  Same for us as we become God’s Habitation to dwell IN and flow out from toward the body of Christ and to the world that is lost.  
 
In this marriage, Jesus’ Soul and our soul begin to become one Soul, Jesus’ Body was dead now alive and become the 2^nd man that we are become married to and become one body!  He makes us as He is, and gives us wisdom, knowledge, and understanding of how to walk and live in His Life that we are also one with Him in! One Holy Spirit moving within us. One Mind operating. We are become One with the Father through His Son by His Holy Spirit. One Body, Spirit, and Soul.
 
John 14:20 At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you.
 
In 2 Cor 3:16-18 and 4:6-7 also help explain Father’s operation of transformation out of darkness and into light.  We behold and see and know HIM the Son of God and in that moment of Awakening we too are changed into the same identity.
 
What took place THEN is all an example for us today.  Those Prophecies and Psalms have been fulfilled, Jesus said.  He came to be the fulfillment of them all. It was the removing of the natural kingdom in Jerusalem, to establish the TRUE kingdom of God, the new Jerusalem in Holy Spirit now come in us.
 
So if you are feeling that there is a fire burning in you, or a “tribulation” working in you, or something of that sorts, know that you are in a good place, and to allow God, the consuming fire, to continue the work of receiving you, and you in His Kingdom.
 
Heb 12:22-29 But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels, 
23 To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect, 
24 And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel. 
25 See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaketh from heaven: 
26 Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven. 
27 And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain.
 
28 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:
 
29 For our God is a consuming fire.
 
As the Lord is revealing Himself (TRUTH) to you, there will be a shaking of what you know, and to have all that is not of Him, purged and removed from your mind.  Lies, Seductions, Deceptions, Traditions of men, religious theologies, etc… will be tried and burned in the Lord’s Presence WITHIN YOU.
 
God will send His Word and you will hear, and may fight the truth at first, but Truth will win and the old will be no more.
 
Then you will find that where you once stood, you can’t stand there anymore… it becomes quicksand.  And those you once stood with, find your paths are now going in separate ways… you have to leave them and go the path of truth.
 
Yet, that will be a choice you will have to make.
Come out from among them….
 
2 Corinthians 6:16-18 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
 
Now we worship God not in the natural mountain, but in our SPIRIT/SOUL/MIND and in TRUTH. He dwells and walks within us. Hallelujah! Precious!
 
John 4:23-24 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
 
Shifting gears here….So, what is Poverty? Poverty is when you do not know who He is and not knowing His Will and Desire for your soul.  You are Occupying Until He Comes and Makes Himself KNOWN To You.
 
When you KNOW and have EXPERIENCED through an ENCOUNTER of the Son Jesus Christ, then you Understand that there is NO LACK when you are joined to and become one with the Father, through the Son Jesus Christ.  You’ve been given Riches of His Glory of Grace. You lack nothing in Christ Jesus.
 
There first is a Preparing and cleaning and sanctifying of the Soul/Spirit… by the Prophetic Word of the Holy Spirit writing upon your heart and putting in your mind the Blood Covenant of the Lord Jesus Christ. This working of Holy Spirit is how Father Reveals the Son to us.
 
Then simultaneously working in you, as your soul/house is set up, the Savior Appears…. a little at a time revealed, setting you free, and establishing Liberty to every area of you: spirit, soul, mind, and body!
 
You BECOME a new creature… You BECOME one with the Son… and begin walking like Him, and talking like Him, and behaving in all the fullness of His character….
 
And then… you realize…. THIS Is the FATHER too….   WOW!
 
The King and Kingdom is come in this place and is established.  Daily entering… Daily revealing…. Eternal Life appears, and has swallowed up your mortality! (1 John 5, 2 Cor 5)
 
We are One with the Son Jesus Christ and CoHeirs with Him and with our Father God. His Promises and Blessings and Inheritance are Abundant. His Life is our New Life too! It is Done.
 
The I AM THAT I AM has been here all along.  The Lamb is alive and has come with the Father to dwell in us and us in Him Forever. We can Rest In His completed Work. His Kingdom is Come. His Will is being done in earth as it is in heaven.
 
Amen.

When That Which Is PERFECT Is Come

Perfect means Complete, or Mature

Maturity is Not Old Age

Some people grow old but never mature.

Some people become mature before they are old.

Maturity is a transformation of the mind.

Old Age is a transformation of the physical body.

Putting off the ‘old’ is not putting off your body, it is the Receiving of the Identity and person of Jesus Christ.  Read on to understand more.

Growing up in Christ isn’t about growing old in Christ.  It’s about having our mind renewed by the Holy Spirit washing and cleansing us by Jesus Christ, which is the Water and Blood… justifying and sanctifying us.   It is Receiving Him, His Mind and being changed, born again in His character & divine nature which means our behavior will change.  We start to walk and begin producing the Lord’s full character in all that we do. 

1 Corinthians 13:10-13 But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away. 11 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. 12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.  13 And now abideth faith, hope, charity , these three; but the greatest of these is charity .

All of 1 Corinthians 13 reveals true Fruit of the Mature One.  So when that Perfect One, or could say Complete One, or Mature One is Come… Revealed IN Your SOUL, then the old nature will fall away.  Hear the word of the Lord.  A change in identity… the second man, the quickening spirit, the Lord from heaven, Eternal Life begins to Appear in this World  …  through HIS BODY …  To those that have ears to hear, hear what the Lord is saying….

It is time to let the Mature One, the Perfect One Appear…

Ephesians 4:11-16

11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;  12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:  13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:  14 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;  15 But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:  16 From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.

Galatians 5:19-26 

19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,  20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,  21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. 

22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,  23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.  24 And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.  25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.

26 Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.

Gal 6:1-2  Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted. 2 Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.

Grace and Mercy abounding in Faith and Hope as we all continue this journey – out of the mind of death/sin (the old law) and into the mind of Eternal Life and Righteousness (Jesus Christ – the New Law).  A transformation of character due to the Appearing of the Mature & Complete & Perfect One In Your Soul. 

Let the FRUIT of that One Come Forth.

Amen.

Are You Ready for More?

John 16:12-16

12 I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.

In John 1:18 and Luke 16:22-23 the Lord has confirmed what He is saying… “everyone has a Place”…to abide in. But as the verse below John 16:12 says, that sometimes the reason the Lord does not reveal things to you, could be because you are not ready to “handle” them. 

John 1:18

18 No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.

Luke 16:22-23

22 And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried; 23 And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.

(Look deep in the verses above…there is a wonderful revelation of the Lord…. and ask the Lord to reveal More…)

WANTING MORE?…  Then ALLOW the Lord to shake you in those areas that are hard and stubborn, and prepare your mind to be “renewed in Christ Jesus” so that He can tell you more of Himself, His Kingdom, which is Truth. 

Today is your Day… Begin…. or for most… Continue the Journey of Eternal Life.

John 16:12-16

12 I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.

13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.

14 He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you.

15 All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall shew it unto you.

16 A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me, because I go to the Father.

Even here the Lord Jesus is revealing that the Holy Spirit Is The Father which will and does dwell in and with those souls that believe in the Son.

Our Father will reveal to us, today, many things.  If we are willing to allow Him to condition us… rather transform our minds so that we can receive them.   These things can cause a spiritual shaking within or all that we thought we knew, concerning Jesus, heaven, God, hell and so much more.

But this is what is exciting!  LEARNING of the FATHER and SON!  Sitting at His Feet, or Hugged in His Arms and allowing Him to show us and TEACH us of things concerning Him.

I say “Yes, Lord.”  “Cause I want to know YOU.”

And THIS IS ETERNAL LIFE…. 1 John 5:20, JOHN 17:3

1 John 5:20  And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.

John 17:3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.

1 John 5:11-13

11 And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.

12 He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.

13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.

So, it is that we that have received the Son, have received the Father also.  And SEALED of Him.

AND it is so, that we that have been sealed of Him, Have Eternal Life, for Eternal Life is In the Son, and the Son is now In Us.

Unless you are a reject, which is a reprobate….  2 Corinthians 13:5  Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?

John 16:12-16 I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.

Are You Ready for More?  …..  Can You Receive Them? ….  Or will you leave also, like the religious sects did, because the words Jesus Spoke to them, they could not receive them.

Ask, and Receive from the Father, because He desires to give you the Kingdom, and reveal Truth to you.

Amen.
