Be Son-conscious through Communion!

It is written by THE SPIRIT in 1^st Corinthians chapter 11:

26  Whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you are retelling the story, proclaiming our Lord’s death until He comes.

27 For this reason, whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in the wrong spirit will be guilty of dishonoring the Body and Blood of the Lord.

28 So let each individual first evaluate his own attitude and only then eat the bread and drink the cup.

29 For continually eating and drinking with a wrong spirit will bring judgment upon yourself by not recognizing the body.

30 This insensitivity is why many of you are weak, chronically ill, and some even dying.

In other Words:  So whoever does not value the meaning of the bread and the wine, keeps himself in condemnation.  To see oneself associated in Christ’s death and declared innocent in His Blood is the only worthy manner in which to examine one’s own life in the context of the New Covenant meal.

I cannot overemphasize the importance of taking Communion frequently.  To be restored to Divine health, I am convinced that FATHER wants us to properly take communion which reflects the New Covenant.  If we take Communion in the wrong manner, we effectively accept judgments.

How did the Israelites walk in Divine health for forty years?  They feasted on Jesus Who is the Bread of Life.  How were Joshua and Caleb able to possess the Promised Land when they were between 59 and 79 years old?  How was Joshua able to rule for an estimated 52 years which made him 111 years old when he died?  They had been feasting in Divine health for 40 years in the wilderness.

Food and exercise are not the keys to a healthy life although they do have some benefits.  The key to a healthy life is to be led by The Holy Spirit in everything you do and consume, especially having the proper mindset at Communion.

As a side note, the majority on the people Jesus healed were on the “Mediterranean” diet!

We can’t put our trust in natural means to stay healthy.  Our trust must be in GOD to keep us healthy and properly taking Communion is central to that.  This keeps us focused on the Supernatural realm.

To reemphasize from an earlier writing, Luke recorded by The Holy Spirit in Acts chapter 2:

46  Daily they met together in the temple courts and in one another’s homes to celebrate communion. They shared meals together with joyful hearts and tender humility.

What was the result?

47 They were continually filled with praises to God, enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord kept adding to their number daily those who were coming to life.

To properly discern The Body, we are to remain Son-conscious, not sin-conscious.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Romans chapter 3:

20  For no one can ever be made right with God by doing what the law commands. The law simply shows us how sinful we are.

21 But now God has shown us a way to be made right with Him without keeping the requirements of the law, as was promised in the writings of Moses and the prophets long ago.

22 We are made right with God by placing our faith in Jesus Christ. And this is true for everyone who believes, no matter who we are.

23 For everyone has sinned; we all fall short of God’s glorious standard.

24 Yet God, in His grace, freely makes us right in His sight. He did this through Christ Jesus when He freed us from the penalty for our sins.

25 For God presented Jesus as the sacrifice for sin. People are made right with God when they believe that Jesus sacrificed His life, shedding His blood. This sacrifice shows that God was being fair when He held back and did not punish those who sinned in times past,

Are we putting faith in the cross of Jesus?  That is the intent in the examination of yourself?  Alternatively, are you putting faith in doctors, pharmaceuticals, diets, and/or exercise?

When man sinned, Divine judgment was placed upon mankind; weakness, sin, and death were some of the effects of it.  If we do not properly recognize His Body and His Blood, it is as though the judgment is still on us because we are not partaking of the benefits of the Sacred Communion.

Let us take hold of what Jesus paid for us and walk daily in Son-consciousness!

We must identify the “leaven” impacting The Body of Christ!

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in 1^st Timothy chapter 4:

1  The Holy Spirit has explicitly revealed: At the end of this age, many will depart from the True faith one after another, devoting themselves to spirits of deception and following demon-inspired revelations and theories.

2 Hypocritical liars will deceive many, and their consciences won’t bother them at all!

3 They will require celibacy and dietary restrictions that GOD doesn’t expect, for HE created all foods to be received with the celebration of faith by those who fully know the Truth.

4 We know that all creation is beautiful to GOD and there is nothing to be refused if it is received with gratitude.

5 All that we eat is made Sacred by the Word of God and prayer.

My wife and I pray over our meal no matter where we are at… in public and private.  Publicly, it is a profession of our faith, and we are not embarrassed to pray in any venue.

6 If you will teach the believers these things, you will be known as a faithful and good minister of Jesus, the Anointed One. Nurture others in the living Words of faith and in the knowledge of grace which you were taught.

7 Be quick to abstain from senseless traditions and legends, but instead be engaged in the training of Truth that brings righteousness.

On the political front, there are so many lies and deception that they leave many with conflict about what will happen in the future.  The deception of propaganda spewed out by the various forms of social media is reaching a crescendo.  We must protect ourselves from those spirits of deception and following demon-inspired revelations and theories.

This is not a recent phenomenon. 

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in his final greetings in Colossians chapter 4:

14 Luke the beloved physician greets you, as does Demas.

And in Philemon chapter 1:

23  Epaphras, my fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus, sends greetings to you,

24 and so do Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, and Luke, my fellow workers.

Later he wrote by The Holy Spirit in 2^nd Timothy chapter 4:

9 Be diligent to come to me quickly;

10 For Demas, in love with this present world, has deserted me and gone to Thessalonica. Crescens has gone to Galatia, Titus to Dalmatia.

11 Luke alone is with me. Get Mark and bring him with you, for he is very useful to me for ministry.

Demas had ministered side by side with Paul and Paul had identified him as a fellow worker.  Later, Demas deserted Paul and returned to his love for the present world.  He fell away from the Truth and returned his focus to the worldly trappings.  His name means “governor of the people” thus he had been exalted by the people as a leader.  It is believed that Demas was from aristocracy, privilege, and wealth.

Paul was in a serious situation and Demas forsook (abandoned) him.  He sent Timothy word to “come quickly”.  Demas had not gotten the world out of his heart.

There are those who have not removed the leaven out of their hearts who will abandon us in these last days.  Those who were thought to represent us will have their hearts revealed and the Truth of what is in their hearts will be exposed.  Don’t be surprised!  Expect the unexpected.  Don’t allow yourself to be captivated by anyone who in the past seemed to be on the same page as you.  As Paul wrote, many will fall away and depart from the True faith.

We owe this world an encounter with GOD!

When The Holy Spirit came to live inside you, He came as a Living River, not a lake.

Jesus spoke in John 7:

37   On the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink.

38 He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow Rivers of Living Water.”

39 But this He spoke concerning the Spirit, whom those believing in Him would receive; for the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.

The purpose of The Holy Spirit in us is to expand The Kingdom of GOD here on earth.  To do anything less is self-centered.  We are to be like Jesus in our individual callings.

Luke recorded by The Holy Spirit in Acts chapter 10:

34  Then Peter opened his mouth and said: “In Truth I perceive that God shows no partiality.

35 But in every nation whoever fears Him and works righteousness is accepted by Him.

36 The Word which God sent to the children of Israel, preaching peace through Jesus Christ-He is Lord of all-

37 that Word you know, which was proclaimed throughout all Judea, and began from Galilee after the baptism which John preached:

38 how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, Who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him.

What happened when the Word of Truth was received by the Gentiles?

44 While Peter was still speaking these words, The Holy Spirit fell upon all those who heard the Word.

When you and I received The Holy Spirit, we were anointed the whole time.  When we truly believe we are anointed, we will walk in signs and wonders, power and authority.

When you got saved you believed in Jesus, but you become dangerous when you realize He actually believes in you!

How come we are not walking in the power of The Holy Spirit?  It is because of some level or aspect of doubt and unbelief.

Thankfully, Mary did not allow doubt and unbelief to prevail when the angel spoke to her as Luke recorded by The Holy Spirit in Luke chapter 1:

26  Now in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent by God to a city of Galilee named Nazareth,

27 to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David. The virgin’s name was Mary.

28 And having come in, the angel said to her, “Rejoice, highly favored one, the Lord is with you; blessed are you among women!”

29 But when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and considered what manner of greeting this was.

30 Then the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God.

31 And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bring forth a Son, and shall call His name JESUS.

32 He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Highest; and the Lord God will give Him the Throne of His father David.

33 And He will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of His Kingdom there will be no end.”

34 Then Mary said to the angel, “How can this be, since I do not know a man?” 35 And the angel answered and said to her, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Highest will overshadow you; therefore, also, that Holy One who is to be born will be called the Son of God.

36 Now indeed, Elizabeth your relative has also conceived a son in her old age; and this is now the sixth month for her who was called barren.

37 For with God nothing will be impossible.”

38 Then Mary said, “Behold the maidservant of the Lord! Let it be to me according to your Word.” And the angel departed from her.

Can Our Heavenly Father cause HIS Holy Spirit to work through you and me?  After all, nothing is impossible with HIM.  HE is not holding back the anointing of The Holy Spirit, we are.  Let us jettison the past, the doubt, and the unbelief, and allow that anointing to not only flow to us, but through us as well.  Be it unto us according to FATHER’S Word!
