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 2nd 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.
