The Lord often withdrew from all to pray. He sought to be alone and be with our Heavenly Father often. In fact, He required being with the Father as His needful thing. So who are we to think we can be victorious over the evil one and be fruitful unto the kingdom of heaven on a quick blink of a thought to our God….. like giving him a quick text? We may live in the age of great communication, but we are lacking greatly…. Could we be missing the mark on communicating with the world and miss the communicating and quieting ourselves to be with the Uncreated One? The One who has all our answers and puts our hearts in perfect peace….Then as a seed that the gentle wind of the Spirit of God blows the peace multiplies on other ground…….. A lot of chaos and drama, no God. A lot of peace, know God.
We are commanded to abide in Christ Jesus. Not unlike how God told Noah to abide in the ark, there was no other option but obedience…….. Abiding in the Lord as He wishes, would be as we working in our day, but when we stop a second to bring our attention to Him, it would be as if a cool breeze over the mountains came gently to us. We are suddenly refreshed…… He wants and desires our love….. It is a command. His commands are not multiple choice. How can we live in our home and ignore the family in which we live with?….. We are there but not in our mind or our spirit?…. Our Lord is within us by His Spirit? Are we partaking of a relationship with Him as priority? Or we are so close with our family that we can almost during our day touch them or hear their voices, even when we may not be together. Often contemplating on them…… The same is abiding in the Lord, the Word of God. We are with Him…. His words are almost visible in our recollection. We know and realize that He is closer to us than our breath so we live according to Him being so near. Knowing His great love is always giving us surprises….. We may be busy but our heart is quiet to hear and do…. Or we just say to Him…. Oh You are so great and I love you….my King of glory.
In our days and our nights, we know where we belong and we go there……as did the Lord……We belong to Him, and we go purposely before Him often.
We do not understand or have the complete comprehension of how victory in our life depends on the place of supremacy the Lord Jesus Christ has before us and in us…..and around us.
Jesus said to them, Have you understood all these things? They said to Him, Yes, Lord. Then He said to them, Therefore every scribe instructed concerning the kingdom of heaven is like a householder who brings out of his treasure things new and old, ( Matthew 13:51-52).
Who was and is and is to come, the Mighty One……. has brought us the old and the new to prepare for what is to come….. by the Word of His power….For He who was and is and forever shall be is revealed unto us, even us, to day by His Spirit.
Remember as He has spoken these words and is speaking to us today: Now in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went to them, walking on the sea. And when the disciples saw Him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a ghost! And they cried out for fear. But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, Be of good cheer! It is I; do not be afraid, ( Matthew 13: 25-27).
He is with us…… through every second we breath and live here. There is nothing that is out of His eye as He keeps us….. So in trusting the Lord in His greatness of love toward us,….. let us ask the Holy Spirit to deepen our understanding in the revelation of the Great I AM.
In the Old Testament Book of Leviticus……Please do not tune me out because of the nature of that Book….. There are hidden secrets from the old which point us to the new and unlock the doors of the unknown to be known now and approachable by our faith. Let us call our mind of darkness to – light be- as the having the mind of Christ. Then, we may understand the place we are in Christ Jesus in God… today…..
And Moses said to Aaron and his sons, Boil the flesh at the door of the tabernacle of meeting, and eat it there with the bread that is in the basket of consecration offerings, as I commanded, saying, Aaron and his sons shall eat it….. What remains of the flesh and of the bread you shall burn with fire. And you shall not go outside the door of the tabernacle of meeting for seven days, until the days of our consecration are ended. For seven days, He shall consecrate you. As he has done this day, so the Lord commanded to do, to make atonement for you.
Therefore you shall stay at the door of the tabernacle of meeting day and night for seven days, and keep the charge of the Lord, so that you may not die; for so I have commanded. So Aaron and his sons did all the things that the Lord had commanded by the hand of Moses.
It came to pass on the eighth day that Moses called Aaron and his sons and the elders of Israel. And he said to Aaron, Take for yourself a young bull as a sin offering and a ram as a burnt offering, without blemish and offer them up to the Lord. And to the children of Israel you shall speak saying, Take a kid of the goats as a sin offering, and a calf and a lamb, both of the first year, without blemish as a burnt offering, also a bull and ram as peace offerings, to sacrifice before the Lord, and a grain offering mixed with oil; for today the Lord will appear to you.
So they brought what Moses commanded before the tabernacle of meeting. And all the congregation drew near and stood before the Lord. Then Moses said, This is the thing which the Lord commanded you to do and the glory of the Lord will appear to you, ( Leviticus 8:31-36, 9:1-6).
We remember who the Door is….. We remember who the Testimony of the Tabernacle is…….. We remember who the Sacrifice is……….. We know Who the Bread we eat is……. We know His Spirit of sanctification is……. Yes, our great Lord, He did it all……. Jesus Christ is Everthing we need…. He did it all…..God gave us all He needed for the propitiation of all sin and brought us in through the Door. The seven days spoken of is reference to fulfillment of specific time set by God….. The age we are in today is regarding that set time of consecration unto our God as priests….. As we have been made kings and priests unto our God by the Lord Jesus Christ…..We all clap and say amen when hear the word- kings, but not so much when the priest word is spoken……. Why? As we abide in Him, His Words come to pass within and for Him. All of them!!!!! We cannot reign as kings if we are not first priest unto our God in our life- all of it, He is a Jealous God…… He wants us all….. Yes, He does deserve our all…. As we laid down in death our lives in baptism, we arise into the life of Christ Jesus and walk as He walks. We are no longer our own or alive for ourselves, for we are dead…… We must be lambs to God and then the roar of our King will manifest in due time.
In Him you were also circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, by putting off the body of the sins of the flesh, by the circumcision of Christ, buried with Him in baptism, in which you also were raised with Him through faith in the working of God who raised Him from the dead. And you, being dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh. He has made alive together with Him, forgiven you all trespasses, having wiped out the handwriting requirements that was against us, which was contrary to us. And has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross, ( Colossians 2:11-14).
We are still the congregation, however, we have been given access to a great place in Christ Jesus today…..The rest of the chapter 9 in Leviticus also points to what the Lord did in heaven after rising from the dead…… The whole Bible points to the Lord……. It should for He is the Word of God. The consummation of all the time that has existed is to point all to Christ Jesus……Christ Jesus will be all and in all, this is the Revelation of Jesus Christ.
We have been given all things that to pertain life and godliness according to scripture…… by God…… However, God expects a return on His Son’s as the Seed He sowed into the world…… A family of His own devoted to Him and His rights as a Father of a spiritual nation…..We thank God that we are His, but it also comes with expectation from the Lord…… A children that will hear and obey and be set apart, sanctified from the world and its way….. A body of Christ that does as the Head does……Children who leave the old and embrace the new life in Christ Jesus growing into sons and daughters of God which all creation is waiting.
Today, the congregation, the body of Christ, us…… are present in the Lamb of God, the King of all kings and the Lord of all Lords…..John, to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace to you and peace from Him who is and who was and who is to come, and from the seven Spirits who are before His throne, and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler over the kings of the earth. To Him who loved us and washed us from our sins in His blood, and has made us kings and priests to His God and Father, to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen, ( Revelation 1:4-6).
As He also says in another place: You are a priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek; who, in the days of His flesh, when He had offered up prayers and supplications, with vehement cries and tears to Him who was able to save Him from death, and was heard because of His godly fear, though He was Son, yet He learned obedience by the things which He suffered . And having been perfected He became the author of eternal salvation to all who obey Him, called by God as High Priest according to the order of Melchizedek, ( Hebrew 5:6-10).
So in learning of our inheritance or place in Christ Jesus:…..We must walk in the knowledge of what the priests were called to be in the Old Testament….. We also must study what the role were of the kings in the Old Testament….. so we may understand why. So we have been given a great Teacher and Guide in bringing us into the knowledge of Jesus Christ, who is Priest and King unto our God…. He spent hours in prayer serving our Heavenly Father and spent hours speaking the Word of the Kingdom of God and the Holy Spirit proved Him by many signs and wonders. The Lamb of God met the requirement of God’s holiness and sacrifice which was needed from the fall of Adam… Satan deceitfully usurped the place Adam held in God. Adam lived on the earth but was elected to reign with God from the heavenlies. Satan took over in the heavenlies reigning death through men and all that transpires from the death culture.
Satan was at the right hand of God written in Zechariah 3…… Now we know Who is seated at the right hand of the Almighty, our Victor, the Lord Jesus Christ, Acts 2. Having disarmed principalities and powers, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it, ( Colossians 2:15).
Satan has been disarmed, yet he still walks about as a roaring lion looking for whom he may devour as written in 1 Peter. If we know who we are in Christ, we will not fall prey to the evil one and his ways. If we remain in Christ, in the Door of the tabernacle, and eat the bread provided for the priests by God, we will remain safe and know what is being planned by the evil one and escape all the snares of evil…… If we lean into the Holy Spirit’s plan of consecration or sanctification for His chosen in this age, we will remain in the ark, as like Noah, and be kept by God.
Do we really realize that Satan has been dispossessed of his power in the heavenlies?…… But as the originator of the meaning of the word -opportunist, he will try to usurp us also! If he can do a good job of bullying or accusing the brethren and try to bring us out of the heavenlies in Christ…… He will try and try and try until we are so rooted in Christ Jesus, he fails……Thanking God in that He brings good out of all things, even the attacks from the evil . We must be fortified in Christ, any ground we stand in ourselves is up for grabs until we know we are nothing with out our God and the place He has put us in Christ Jesus…… When the devil accuses us of this and that, we can say- I know….. that is why I am dead and live in My King, Christ Jesus…… He took all of me at His cross, so what is left is His, His risen body, and I am His…..All I am is His doing, if you have a problem devil, take it up with the Lord…. for I am in Him. Be gone, for I am nothing, and the Lord Jesus Christ is everything. The reason I exist is for Him and His glory….. and I am here by His great love…… Well, we might have made the devil speechless……..The devil is like a rat, if there is a crack in our foundation of belief, he will squeeze through again and again until we are so rooted in Christ, there is no room because Christ fills us up!….. Then he groans when we awaken because he is now on defense in the power of our prayer to cast him down again.
It is not personal with the evil, it is their motive of operation. They try to bring all things to the earth since misery likes company, he wants the body of Christ down here without power operating away from the Holy Spirit, the Anointing of God, and to operate through their flesh and agendas and marketing strategies…….and forget prayer. When we behold our Lord, we become as He is…….. The holy intention of the Godhead…… to be made into the image of our Lord, His Son.
The truth in our belief is manifested by our lives…..If we have been born again are lives will be new and the old has been washed away. We will be diligent to know the Lord, not religion. Yes, we walk with the Lord, even though all things grow in progression……If we are true to the light that we know, and choose to live. We walk in the freedom of the Lord’s path because where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is sitting at the right hand of the God. Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth. For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God, ( Colossians 3:1-3).
As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving. Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ. For in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily; and you are complete in Him, who is the head of all principality and power, ( Colossians 2:6-10).
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love, having predestined us to adoption as sons by Christ Jesus to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will, to the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He made us accepted in the Beloved.
The place of authority in the heavenlies Satan lost through the Lord Jesus Christ….. We reign and offer prayers to our God through the power of the Lord’s name and in the power of the Holy Spirit from the heavenlies- …… We are seated with our King in spiritual high places…… When we meet with the Lord, we are there in Him…… We must wait and allow our faith to quiet us and then pray in all authority in faith of the name that is above all names, Jesus Christ. We are seated in the heavenlies with life eternal that we bestow in our prayers over the earth.
I pray the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to us the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, the eyes of our understanding being enlightened; that we may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, and what is the exceeding greatness of His power to us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places, far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come. And He put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be head over all things to the church, which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all,
( Ephesians 1:17-23).
Heavenly Father, may we live according to the Truth of the Word, in the knowledge of all that Your Son, our Lord Jesus Christ died to bestow on His bride….. May we in courage and boldness apprehend all that Your Son, our Lord Jesus Christ layed down to give us….Thank You for giving us eyes to see and ears to know the Truth of Your neverending Love You have given us…..then live by the Truth in all power and might and strength of Your Son and the Holy Spirit. You gave us, the body of Christ, Your Son as the head over all things….. May we live in that victorious knowledge and freedom by the illumination by Your Spirit…… His body is the fullness of Him who fills all and in all……. Father, open and allow Your Word to explode our hearts with greatness of Your purpose of Your Son and His body this day. I ask this in Your Name, the Name above all names, Jesus Christ, the King of all creation. Amen.
We gladly Call2Fall this Sunday on the blood of Christ in Your Great Mercy and Love and ask for forgiveness in our watch in keeping our eyes on Your Son our Lord and wrestle in prayer and Your might to keep Your rights in our land, the Light of our land. We turn our eyes and hands away from all and turn our eyes on You and hold on to You with all we have…. for You are King and God of our hearts and families. We love You and will obey the commands of Your heart….. We will love the Lord our God with all our heart, with all our soul, and with all our strength. In God we trust.
Selah !
My Children,
Sing, O daughter of Zion! Shout, O Israel! Be glad and rejoice with your whole heart, O daughter of Jerusalem! The Lord has taken away your judgments, He has cast out your enemy. The King of Israel, the Lord is in your midst; you shall see disaster no more. In that day it shall be said to Jerusalem; do not fear; Zion, let not your hands be weak, the Lord your God in your midst, the Mighty One, will save; He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing.
I will gather those who sorrow over the appointed assembly, who are among you, to whom its reproach is a burden. Behold, at that time I will deal with all who afflict you; I will save the lame, and gather those who were driven out; I will appoint them for praise and fame in every land where they were put to shame. At that time I will bring you back, even at the time I gather you; for I will give you fame and praise among all the peoples of the earth, when I return your captives before your eyes, says the Lord.
As I AM has spoken, these words will be fulfilled before you, yea, even today. For I AM the Mighty One who calls My people who have a made a covenant of sacrifice unto Me. I AM today gathering…… I AM before you even today…… Hear the Words of the I AM who is in your midst. He who has made the eye does not see? He who has created the ear does not hear your words?
I AM sends My commands out in the earth….. Who can stand before the fulfillment of My Words to stop them?….. Yea, who has the knowledge of the deep that can stand before I AM to change the tides of the vast waters on the earth? Who can hold the rain back from it’s falling unless I AM has spoken ? Who has beheld the fires of the sun in His palm and still is I AM this day?
Behold, I AM’s rebuke shakes the very foundation of the earth and heavens, yet, you still allow the darkness of unbelief to cover your eyes so that you do not come and believe in the One who knows your thoughts before you do?
Do not be deceived, open your eyes and your ears to hear so you may be saved. He who leads in captivity shall go into captivity; he who kills with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints. I AM has spoken and I AM has not relented on My Word……My Word reigns as King of the kings and is Lord of all lords.
Be still and know I AM God and I AM will not be mocked….. He who sows to the flesh will reap death and he who sows in My Spirit will reap life…. Yea, I AM has strengthened My own in Me. They walk up and down in I AM…. My Name they speak of and for. They are My jewels. They are My crowns of glory. Yea, I AM has called them to Me. They are mine. Who can withstand the whirlwind when it comes billowing through the land? I AM will watch after My Word so it shall be performed. Who can hold his hand up to a tidal wave to stop it if I AM has orchestrated it?
Do not be deceived in your blindness, you think I AM does not see? In all your doing and scheming, does that bring the peace that I AM can only give? Does the hurt go away? Does the pain dissolve by your acts of unrighteousness? You push I AM away, yet, I AM all you need. So let go your clenched fists of anger and hate and come receive me and get the peace that I AM only can give in your heart. Come to Me, and be cleansed by the living Blood of Yahwah. Come to Me and receive the freshness of life that relieves the crookedness of your brow. Let I AM’s hand rest upon your forehead and give your mind the relief of leaning on Me and My righteousness. Learn of Me. Lean on My cross, it is strong and fortified in Me…. I AM will hold you forever, come and rest…..Allow your faith to save you and rest in the peace of your God, Great I AM.
Heed My warnings and keep My commands and your faith alive in I AM. Be found in I AM clothed in My righteousness and not naked, clothed in the world’s unrighteousness. Do not allow the day we meet come to you like a robber or a thief, with no knowledge of I AM, your Salvation….. Come to Me as your time today is your mercy and grace. Come and be clothed in I AM while the sun is setting. You do not know what holds the days ahead.
I AM calling…….. you today!
SELAH!
