How do we know we sit or our position is in heavenly places? Do we see the place where we sit or are positioned by the Lord? How do we know the Spirit of the Living God dwells within us? How do we know that we died with Christ and have risen in His resurrection? How do we know that every knee shall bow and every tongue confess Jesus Christ is Lord?
How do we know these things? These words have been written in the Word of God! Now do we only pick and choose what we want to believe in the Word of God and leave the rest like it is a buffet line at a restaurant? We better not.
Every word that proceeds from the mouth of God is true, whether we see it with our natural eyes or not. Every Word that came from God will be, if it hasn’t been already or is today fulfilled in our hearing….. It is our Food, we are instructed to live by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God. We live by faith and trust in His great love for us, not by our might but by His Spirit….. We were created to be positioned with our Lord in heavenly places…. Are you there? I hope so…. I am assuming that we all are reading the Word diligently, like it is the only answer to all our life’s enigmas!
If we do not understand, ask for understanding! If we have the mind of Christ, then our vision is as His and then we live the vision of His that we believe. We live according to the word of God and what He says about you and me. If we easily take His word on the character of the Trinity, we should also easily take the word on the character of His children….. Remember His love covered a multitude of sins. As His children are we living that way also?
When we walk in Christ, there is no room for slander, jealousies ( by the way, slander is the fruit or thorns of jealousy and envy), or dissension among the churches. If there is any negative or darkness from the mouth of people who call on His name, I have to question about a diligence in walking His Spirit.
In the Spirit there is always growth or increase in Him, which is love and light. We walk from glory to glory. The advancement of His kingdom would be known in the world due to the fear that quaked in hearts that saw the power of God working through His people as written for our example in the Book of Acts…..if we acted from the place that we have taken the land and dwell there which is available to us in the Heavenly Man, the Christ…..
God gave designated places to dwell in the land of Canaan, the land of promise to His people…… We also have the designated position to dwell in the Spirit of the Heavenly Man, in His body….. Are we growing up in Him which is all the fullness of God dwells? The character and attributes of God are available and perfected in those who dwell in Him, our Lord.
The angels admonished the world with their announcements in the last chapter of 14 of Revelation. Now we see the approaching wrath of God that will be poured among men that rebuke the Living God. As Isaiah spoke out in alarm in chapter 26: 20-21: Come, My people, enter your chambers, and shut your doors behind you; hide yourself, as it were, for just a little moment, until the indignation is past. For behold the Lord comes out of His place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity; the earth will also disclose her blood, and will no more cover her slain.
There is also revealed a sea of glass, His nation. This is the Lord’s bride, who is as glass reflecting the Son. The fire of the Holy Spirit has burned away all that is not God, so Christ will be all in all…..as scripture states. These are victorious over the beast and over his image and over the number of his name…..
Do you believe this is possible to all that call on the name of the Lord in a pure heart—– That you and I are with the Lord in His overcomer status? The sea as glass? I hope so….. As Jesus Christ’s work on the cross is finished…. Do you think that the Holy Spirit will allow any of His work of sanctification to go undone? I do not see that as the character of God… Do you? Nope…. thank God!
If we are willing and obedient to His Spirit, we will also eat of the good the land- not Israel- but the government of His kingdom— Mount Zion, where we live and dwell with the King, the Heavenly Man – Now? Yes. We also act on the authority given to us in the name that every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.
We join in with all our brethren and sing the song of Moses and the song of the Lamb SAYING from chapter 15: Great and marvelous are Your works, Lord God Almighty! Just and true are Your ways, O King of the saints! Who shall not fear You, O Lord, and glorify Your name? For You alone are holy, for all nations shall come and worship before You, for Your judgments have been manifested, (Revelation 15:3-4).
Jesus Christ is the Word of God and all the Word of God will be fulfilled, all!
He has made available to all His works, His love and His calling to all, so that they may turn….. With the internet and satellites, His word has penetrated all ears…. The ones that missed the technology, He has manifested Himself….. There is no excuse for anyone to turn away from the Salvation of God because they did not hear and see His Salvation….. His love has covered all the world’s multitude of sins……. in the past, now and in all time’s future….. The Lord has done His work……. Now the Word of God, Jesus Christ, is manifest to all in creation. Study Colossians! See for yourself!
Why do you think that no one was allowed to enter the temple until the seven plagues of the seven angels were completed, ( verse 8 of 15)? These plagues are not for the followers of the Lamb…..Christ dwells in us, He sees Himself in us! Judgment has come for all the names not written in the Lamb’s book of life….. Or could it be said His Spirit was not found in them? Or could it be for those that His Word is not written on and in their hearts? The Lord does not see Himself manifested in those that rejected Him?
The Lord needs to no temple to dwell in when evil has been rendered its final just reward. The Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the city’s temple as we read on in the manifestation of our King.
How important is it for us to understand the mystery that has been revealed for us- Christ in us our only hope of glory. At consummation of this age, there is no need to be separated from our God as before….. for Christ is all and in all. There is no more sin or judgment or flesh to separate us from this Mighty God any longer….. Our God fixed the problem of our natural man of sin…… He longs to dwell with His people. We are all in and of Him so we may worship fully in Spirit and Truth…. How great is our God and His manifold wisdom for all of His creation.
He who descended is also the One who ascended far above all the heavens, that He might fill all things. And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting, but, speaking truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head- Christ- from the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love…, ( Ephesians 4:10-16).
You meditated and asked the Lord if Christ is all and in all of us, His body….. Is there any part of His body that is not filled with His fullness…….? You wondered why this is hardly spoken on Sunday church! Are we what He says we are? Then why is there a blockage, maybe what Paul warned about in Galatians ? We are what He says we are…… He has equipped us and gave us gifts in men…..and the manifesting of His Spirit through us by the workings of His gifts.
However, no matter what man does to try to stop the Lord, it won’t prosper for our Lord is like a freight train— Thank God, He is unstoppable….. The people in the wilderness did not make it into the land of Canaan because of their unbelief……But He chose the next generation to get in the promise with the two from the old generation who had the vision of God.
If the church may be stopped in their tracks in unbelief but the Lord keeps going….. There are some that go on with Him….. as written before, and will be now and in time’s future…. Praise God, He always has Joshua’s, Caleb’s, and Paul’s who always follow the Holy Spirit, and are willing to pay the cost….. If the Lord be with us ( and He is ), He will give us the land! Well, the Lord is with us and in us and has given us the land- in the Heavenly Man!
Praise the Father! Praise the Son! Praise the Holy Spirit! All three in One…… Where are we in this, if Christ be all and in all?
Selah!
