Fear weakens your anointing.  If you are unable to discern in the spiritual realm, you are unable to remove certain demons from your midst.

If you have a “civil contract” with the demonic realm, you must literally separate yourself from that contract for it is still in place even after your salvation.  As I stated in the previous post, Jesus “paid in full” all terms and conditions of contracts arising out of the kingdom of darkness.  However, we must enforce separation by speaking those words of separation.  We must ask The Holy Spirit to show us any outstanding past contracts that require separation.

The devil will deceive us into thinking those contracts are still enforceable if we are ignorant of his deception concerning them.  Generational curses are just one example of a “civil contract” requiring separation.

Do you want to be on the battleship or the cruise ship?  Spiritual warfare is when you can see GOD in action.  When demons tremble, that is Spiritual warfare.  When you see THE LORD JESUS CHRIST in action, that is Spiritual warfare.  We need to get off the expectation of instantaneous miracles.  The devil is robbing the church from the progressive miracle.  Progressive miracles result in Spiritual maturity and Spiritual endurance.  It will solidify your Spiritual foundation.  We need to become immovable in our walk.  Will GOD trust you with the things of the Kingdom?

Are you ignoring the devil or are you resisting the devil?  He wants you to ignore him for that is right where he wants you.  Most churches are entertaining us.  They are complacent.  We should be advancing GOD’S Kingdom on earth.  Pastors need to quit babysitting Christians.

When GOD gives you an opportunity, HE gives you an open Heaven.

The Beloved Disciple wrote by The Holy Spirit in 1 John chapter 3:

7 Dear children, don’t let anyone deceive you about this: When people do what is right, it shows that they are righteous, even as Christ is righteous. 8 But when people keep on sinning, it shows that they belong to the devil, who has been sinning since the beginning. But the Son of God came to destroy the works of the devil.

Jesus spoke in Matthew 16:

17 Jesus answered and said to him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but My Father who is in heaven. 18 And I also say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it. 19 And I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed[fn] in heaven.”  NKJV

17 Jesus replied, “You are blessed, Simon son of John, because My Father in Heaven has revealed this to you. You did not learn this from any human being. 18 Now I say to you that you are Peter (which means ‘rock’), and upon this rock I will build My church, and all the powers of hell will not conquer it.  NLT

Now is the time.  Jesus mounted His “war horse” to do battle and He is Our Example.  The Beloved Disciple recorded what he saw in THE SPIRIT known as The Revelation of Jesus Christ chapter 6:

6 Then I watched as the Lamb broke open the first of the seven seals. Immediately I heard one of the four living creatures call out with a powerful voice of revelation sounding like thunder, saying, “Come forth!” 2 So I looked, and behold, there was a bright white horse. Its rider had a bow and was given a crown of victory. He rode out as a conqueror ready to conquer.

An in Revelation chapter 11 speaks of the victory we will see (if we have eyes to see):

15 Then the seventh angel sounded: And there were loud voices in Heaven, saying, “The kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our Lord and of His Christ, and He shall reign forever and ever!” 16 And the twenty-four elders who sat before God on their thrones fell on their faces and worshiped God, 17 saying:

​

​​“We give You thanks, O Lord God Almighty,

​​The One WHO is and WHO was and WHO is to come,

​​Because YOU have taken YOUR great power and reigned.

18 ​​The nations were angry, and YOUR wrath has come,

​​And the time of the dead, that they should be judged,

​​And that YOU should reward YOUR servants the prophets and the saints,

​​And those who fear YOUR Name, small and great,

​​And should destroy those who destroy the earth.”

These saints are not the inactive, immature, pew-warming Christians.  They are the overcoming Believers in Christ and His Power.  They have exposed the devil’s devices in their lives and others who have eyes to see and ears to hear.  They took to heart the Word recorded by Peter given to him by The Holy Spirit in 1^st Peter chapter 5:

 8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. 9 Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world.

And by the same SPIRIT, Paul wrote in 2^nd Corinthians chapter 4:

1 Therefore, since we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we do not lose heart. 2 But we have renounced the hidden things of shame, not walking in craftiness nor handling the Word of God deceitfully, but by manifestation of the Truth commending ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God. 3 But even if our Gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing, 4 whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the Gospel of the glory of Christ, Who is the image of God, should shine on them.

And in 2nd Timothy chapter 2:

1 You therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. 2 And the things that you have heard from me among many witnesses, commit these to faithful men who will be able to teach others also. 3 You therefore must endure hardship as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. 4 No one engaged in warfare entangles himself with the affairs of this life, that he may please him who enlisted him as a soldier. 5 And also if anyone competes in athletics, he is not crowned unless he competes according to the rules. 6 The hardworking farmer must be first to partake of the crops. 7 Consider what I say, and may the Lord give you understanding in all things.

The Truth will equip you.  The church has become the great pretender suggesting that the devil is not actively devouring.  We are called to be soldiers who are willing to do battle and war with the adversary.  It is time to get off one’s posterior and stand up, ready to do battle!

To enter the Promised Land required a war with the existing inhabitants of the land.  The  Israelites were instructed in warfare and FATHER expected them to win every battle HE ordained.  We are at that same point today. 

Paul wrote by THE Holy Spirit in Ephesians chapter 6:

10 Now my Beloved ones, I have saved these most important Truths for last: Be supernaturally infused with strength through your life-union with the Lord Jesus. Stand victorious with the force of his explosive power flowing in and through you.

11 Put on God’s complete set of armor provided for us, so that you will be protected as you fight against the evil strategies of the accuser! 12 Your hand-to-hand combat is not with human beings, but with the highest principalities and authorities operating in rebellion under the heavenly realms. For they are a powerful class of demon-gods and evil spirits that hold this dark world in bondage. 13 Because of this, you must wear all the armor that God provides so you’re protected as you confront the slanderer, for you are destined for all things and will rise victorious.

14 Put on Truth as a belt to strengthen you to stand in triumph. Put on Holiness as the protective armor that covers your heart. 15 Stand on your feet alert, then you’ll always be ready to share the blessings of peace.

16 In every battle, take faith as your wrap-around shield, for it is able to extinguish the blazing arrows coming at you from the evil One! 17–18 Embrace the power of salvation’s full deliverance, like a helmet to protect your thoughts from lies. And take the mighty razor-sharp Spirit-sword of the spoken Word of God.

Pray passionately in the Spirit, as you constantly intercede with every form of prayer at all times. Pray the blessings of God upon all his believers. 19 And pray also that God’s revelation would be released through me every time I preach the wonderful mystery of the hope-filled Gospel. 20 Yes, pray that I may preach the wonderful news of God’s Kingdom with bold freedom at every opportunity. Even though I am chained as a prisoner, I am HIS ambassador.

How committed are you?

Today’s Declaration:

In Jesus’ name, I declare that I was made for victory. The devil has no claim on me when I’m walking in full alignment with the Lord. I’m covered in His blood and I have full access to the spiritual arsenal He’s given me. In Jesus’ name, I break off any assignments of the enemy over my life and declare that from this day forward, I fully surrender my time and allegiance to Him!

In Jesus’ powerful name I pray!

The Beloved Disciple wrote by The Holy Spirit in John chapter 19:

23 Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took His outer garments and made four parts, a part to every soldier and also the tunic; now the tunic was seamless, woven in one piece. 24 So they said to one another, “Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it, to decide whose it shall be”; this was to fulfill the Scripture: “THEY DIVIDED MY OUTER GARMENTS AMONG THEM, AND FOR MY CLOTHING THEY CAST LOTS.” 25 Therefore the soldiers did these things.

But standing by the cross of Jesus were His mother, and His mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene. 26 When Jesus then saw His mother, and the disciple whom He loved standing nearby, He said to His mother, “Woman, behold, your son!” 27 Then He said to the disciple, “Behold, your mother!” From that hour the disciple took her into his own household.

28 After this, Jesus, knowing that all things had already been accomplished, to fulfill the Scripture, said, “I am thirsty.” 29 A jar full of sour wine was standing there; so they put a sponge full of the sour wine upon a branch of hyssop and brought it up to His mouth. 30 Therefore when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, “It is finished! (tetelestai or PAID IN FULL!)” And He bowed His head and gave up His spirit.

What does the Greek word “tetelestai” mean?

Literally translated the word tetelestai means, “It is finished.” The word occurs in John 19:28 and 19:30 and these are the only two places in the New Testament where it occurs. In 19:28 it is translated, “After this, when Jesus knew that all things were now completed, in order that the scripture might be fulfilled, He said, ‘I thirst.’” Two verses later, He utters the word Himself: “Then when He received the sour wine Jesus said, ‘It is finished,’ and He bowed His head and gave up His spirit.”

The word tetelestai was also written on business documents or receipts in New Testament times to show indicating that a bill had been paid in full. The Greek-English lexicon by Moulton and Milligan says this:

“Receipts are often introduced by the phrase tetelestai, usually written in an abbreviated manner…”  The connection between receipts and what Christ accomplished would have been quite clear to John’s Greek-speaking readership; it would be unmistakable that Jesus Christ had died to pay for their sins.

Death came upon the first Adam in the garden of Eden, but eternal life surged through the last Adam in the garden of the cross and his tomb. Man fell in a garden, but man now finds life in that empty garden tomb.  Jesus reversed the curse completely and there is nothing left for Him to do in order for us to place demands on our Covenant with Heaven.  

It is our Covenant and we should start acting like it is ours.  A righteous Son or Daughter does not approach FATHER in a timid fashion hoping to convince HIM of something HE initiated!  HE expects us to expect HIM to release the Kingdoms resources on our behalf… after all it was HIS idea in the first place.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Hebrews chapter 4:

14 So then, we must cling in faith to all we know to be true. For we have a magnificent King-Priest, Jesus Christ, the Son of God, who rose into the Heavenly realm for us, and now sympathizes with us in our frailty. 15 He understands humanity, for as a Man, our magnificent King-Priest was tempted in every way just as we are, and conquered sin. 16 So now we come freely and boldly to where Love is enthroned, to receive mercy’s kiss and discover the grace we urgently need to strengthen us in our time of weakness.

In Acts chapter 4, it is written by The Holy Spirit:

23 As soon as they were released from custody, Peter and John went to the other believers and explained all that had happened with the high priest and the elders. 24 When the believers heard their report, they raised their voices in unity and prayed, “Lord Yahweh, YOU are the Lord of all! YOU created the universe—the earth, the sky, the sea, and everything that is in them. 25 And YOU spoke by the Holy Spirit through your servant David, our forefather, saying:

‘How dare the nations plan a rebellion,

    ranting and raging against the Lord Most High?

    Their foolish plots are futile!

26 Look at how the kings of the earth take their stand,

    with the rulers scheming and conspiring together

    against God and HIS anointed Messiah!’

27 “In fact, Herod and Pontius Pilate, along with Jews and non-Jews, met together to take their stand against YOUR Holy Servant, Jesus the Messiah. 28 They did to Him all that YOUR purpose and will had determined, according to the destiny YOU had marked out for Him. 29 So now, LORD, listen to their threats to harm us. Empower us, as YOUR Servants, to speak the Word of God freely and courageously. 30 Stretch out YOUR Hand of power through us to heal, and to move in signs and wonders by the Name of your Holy Son, Jesus!”

31 At that moment the earth shook beneath them, causing the building they were in to tremble. Each one of them was filled with the Holy Spirit, and they proclaimed the Word of God with unrestrained boldness.

32 All the believers were one in mind and heart. Selfishness was not a part of their community, for they shared everything they had with one another. 33 The apostles gave powerful testimonies about the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and great measures of grace rested upon them all. 34–35 Some who owned houses or land sold them and brought the proceeds before the apostles to distribute to those without. Not a single person among them was needy.

Is today any different than what those in charge of the world system was doing to the church then?  Where is the unrestrained boldness in the church?  Where is the church which is led by The Holy Spirit?  Where are the healings, signs, and wonders?

The Sons and Daughters are those who are meant to access Heaven with great faith and boldness so that we are willing and able to stand up against the enemies of Christ.  I am expecting Heaven to release this full empowerment, how about you?  The sooner the better!  The world should be amazed this year.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in 2 Corinthians chapter 9:

6 Here’s my point. A stingy sower will reap a meager harvest, but the one who sows from a generous spirit will reap an abundant harvest. 7 Let giving flow from your heart, not from a sense of religious duty. Let it spring up freely from the joy of giving—all because God Loves hilarious generosity! 8 Yes, God is more than ready to overwhelm you with every form of grace, so that you will have more than enough of everything—every moment and in every way. HE will make you overflow with abundance in every good thing you do. 9 Just as the Scriptures say about the one who trusts IN HIM:

Because he has sown extravagantly and given to the poor,

    his kindness and generous deeds will never be forgotten.

10 This generous God who supplies abundant seed for the farmer, which becomes bread for our meals, is even more extravagant toward you. First HE supplies every need, plus more. Then HE multiplies the seed as you sow it, so that the harvest of your generosity will grow. 11 You will be abundantly enriched in every way as you give generously on every occasion, for when we take your gifts to those in need, it causes many to give thanks to God.

12 The priestly ministry you are providing through your offering not only supplies what is lacking for God’s people, it inspires an outpouring of praises and thanksgiving to God Himself. 13 For as your extremely generous offering meets the approval of those in Jerusalem, it will cause them to give glory to God—all because of your loyal support and allegiance to the gospel of Christ, as well as your generous-hearted partnership with them toward those in need. 14 Because of this extraordinary grace, which God has lavished on you, they will affectionately remember you in their prayers. 15 Praise God for HIS astonishing gift, which is far too great for words!

My wife and I can attest to the above passage in our lives as we have been generous givers to those in need.  We choose to determine our level of generous giving by what The Holy Spirit instructs rather than using some formula.

What should be the result of revelation in the area of Kingdom authority?  We should walk in it.

The Beloved Disciple wrote by The Holy Spirit in John chapter 1:

12 But those who embraced Him and took hold of His Name

    were given authority to become

    the Children of GOD!

13 He was not born by the joining of human parents

    or from natural means, or by a man’s desire,

    but He was born of God.

14 And so the Living Expression

    became a man and lived among us!

    And we gazed upon the splendor of His glory,

    the glory of the One and Only

    Who came from the Father overflowing

    with tender mercy and Truth!

15 John taught the Truth about Him

    when he announced to the people,

    “He’s the One! Set your hearts on Him!

    I told you He would come after me,

    even though He ranks far above me,

    for He existed before I was even born.”

16 And now out of His fullness we are fulfilled!

    And from Him we receive grace heaped upon more grace!

17 Moses gave us the Law, but Jesus, the Anointed One,

    unveils Truth wrapped in tender mercy.

18 No one has ever gazed upon the fullness of God’s splendor

    except the uniquely Beloved Son,

    Who is cherished by the Father

    and held close to HIS Heart.

    Now He has unfolded to us

    the full explanation of who God truly is! 

Through Jesus, we have been give authority from FATHER to legally bring for HIS Kingdom on earth.  Power without authority will tend toward lawlessness and self promotion. 

Authority should and must come first for the Sons and Daughters to walk according to FATHER’S Divine Intent.  Jesus perfected this authority when He came to the earth He created and perfected our restoration with FATHER through His Blood.  Jesus fully disclosed the Truth of walking in authority granted by FATHER.

Once we truly have the revelation of our authority, we are able to realize the power to heal and deliver those in need.  When power from Heaven arises out of the authority granted to us by Heaven, manifestation occurs.

In order to walk in this authority, unbelief must be removed from our mindset.  Jesus spoke of this Truth in Matthew chapter 8:

5 When Jesus entered the village of Capernaum, a captain in the Roman army approached Him, asking for a miracle. 6 “Lord,” he said, “I have a son who is lying in my home, paralyzed and suffering terribly.”

7 Jesus responded, “I will go with you and heal him.”

8–9 But the Roman officer interjected, “Lord, who am I to have You come into my house? I understand Your authority, for I too am a man who walks under authority and have authority over soldiers who serve under me. I can tell one to go and he’ll go, and another to come and he’ll come. I order my servants and they’ll do whatever I ask. So I know that all You need to do is to stand here and command healing over my son and he will be instantly healed.”

10 Jesus was astonished when He heard this and said to those who were following Him, “He has greater faith than anyone I’ve encountered in Israel! 11 Listen to what I am about to tell you. Multitudes of non-Jewish people will stream from the east and the west, to enter into the banqueting feast with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the heavenly kingdom. 12 But many Israelites, born to be heirs of the kingdom, will be turned away and banished into the darkness where there will be bitter weeping and unbearable anguish.”

13 Then Jesus turned to the Roman officer and said, “Go home. All that you have believed for will be done for you!” And his son was healed at that very moment.

The centurion was well-acquainted with authority and the power behind it.  This equated to him having great faith and no unbelief whatsoever.  Because of this great faith, healing came forth immediately.  This authority was further demonstrated when Jesus spoke in Luke chapter 9:

1 Jesus summoned together His twelve apostles and imparted to them authority over every demon and the power to heal every disease. 2 Then He commissioned them to preach God’s Kingdom realm and to heal the sick to demonstrate that the Kingdom had arrived. As He sent them out, He gave them these instructions: 3 “Take nothing extra on your journey. Just go as you are. Don’t carry a staff, a backpack, food, money, not even a change of clothes. 4 Whatever home welcomes you as a guest, remain there and make it your base of ministry. 5 And wherever your ministry is rejected and not welcomed, you are to leave that town and shake the dust off your shoes as a testimony before them.”

6 The apostles departed and went into the villages with the wonderful news of God’s Kingdom realm, and they instantly healed diseases wherever they went.

We have been given this same authority and power which is now resident in us even though it may be in a dormant state until we deal with any unbelief preventing our faith from being operational at 100%.  Jesus is waiting on us, we are not waiting on Him.

Our Beloved Sister Rute in Brazil is now posting blogs of Servias in Portuguese:

https://blogmakeoveremjesus.wordpress.com/

I appreciate her timely labor of Love!

What should be the result of revelation?  An impartation that causes change in a person’s life.  These writings are not intended to entertain the reader but should ultimately bring forth change in that person’s life.  If there is no change then there is something wrong!

We are to mature in areas such as Divine healing but we should not stop there.  As we mature in the revelation of resurrection power, we should then walk in Divine health.  However, this is not the end of the journey.  We should then mature to the point of walking in the Divine Life where we are totally pleasing to FATHER.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Ephesians chapter 4:

4 As a prisoner of the Lord, I plead with you to walk Holy, in a way that is suitable to your high rank, given to you in your Divine calling. 2 With tender humility and quiet patience, always demonstrate gentleness and generous Love toward one another, especially toward those who may try your patience. 3 Be faithful to guard the sweet harmony of the Holy Spirit among you in the bonds of peace, 4 being one body and one spirit, as you were all called into the same glorious hope of Divine destiny.

5 For the Lord God is ONE, and so are we, for we share in one faith, one baptism, and one Father. 6 And HE is the perfect Father who leads us all, works through us all, and lives in us all!

When you and I walk in the fullness of our Divine destiny, we have achieved our walk in Divine Life.  Why did HE provide us with a five-fold ministry?  It was not to simply keep us sitting in pews and remaining spiritually immature.  It was not to finance programs and buildings arising out of the soulish ambitions of those who have strayed from FATHER’S Divine Intent but placed in charge as though they are the leaders of the saints.

Paul further wrote:

11 And He has appointed some with grace to be apostles, and some with grace to be prophets, and some with grace to be evangelists, and some with grace to be pastors, and some with grace to be teachers. 12 And their calling is to nurture and prepare all the holy believers to do their own works of ministry, and as they do this they will enlarge and build up the body of Christ. 13 These grace ministries will function until we all attain oneness in the faith, until we all experience the fullness of what it means to know the Son of God, and finally we become one perfect man with the full dimensions of spiritual maturity and fully developed in the abundance of Christ.

14 And then our immaturity will end! And we will not be easily shaken by trouble, nor led astray by novel teachings or by the false doctrines of deceivers who teach clever lies. 15 But instead we will remain strong and always sincere in our Love as we express the Truth. All our direction and ministries will flow from Christ and lead us deeper into Him, the anointed Head of His body, the church.

16 For His “body” has been formed in his image and is closely joined together and constantly connected as one. And every member has been given Divine gifts to contribute to the growth of all; and as these gifts operate effectively throughout the whole body, we are built up and made perfect in Love.

The above passage sums up the intended purpose of the five-fold ministry.  Mature believers should be the result and when that occurs, we will walk in Love and true unity as HIS Body.  Any other agenda arises out of man’s carnal nature which ultimately is intended to misdirect and manipulate in order to achieve some self-centered result.

Every one of us has been given Divine gifts to contribute to the growth and maturity of all.  If you are not contributing then you need to do a personal assessment.  Some people simply want to receive all the time without giving to anyone which is an indication of selfishness.  We all need to be known as givers!

Paul continues:

17 So with the wisdom given to me from the Lord I say: You should not live like the unbelievers around you who walk in their empty delusions. 18 Their corrupted logic has been clouded because their hearts are so far from God—their blinded understanding and deep-seated moral darkness keeps them from the true knowledge of God. 19 Because of spiritual apathy, they surrender their lives to lewdness, impurity, and sexual obsession.

20 But this is not the way of life that Christ has unfolded within you. 21 If you have really experienced the Anointed One, and heard His Truth, it will be seen in your life; for we know that the ultimate reality is embodied in Jesus!

22 And He has taught you to let go of the lifestyle of the ancient man, the old self – life, which was corrupted by sinful and deceitful desires that spring from delusions. 23 Now it’s time to be made new by every revelation that’s been given to you. 24 And to be transformed as you embrace the glorious Christ-within as your new life and live in union with Him! For God has re-created you all over again in HIS perfect righteousness, and you now belong to Him in the realm of true Holiness. 25 So discard every form of dishonesty and lying so that you will be known as one who always speaks the Truth, for we all belong to one another.

Revelation opens our eyes, corrects and transforms our mindset.  Revelation brings us into union with Christ Jesus where we will walk in true Holiness.  What else matters?  We will always speak the Truth and promote Agape Love in our relationships with others.  Our ultimate expectation should be to walk in Divine Life!

In order to “wait on THE LORD”, we need to get rid of all distractions.  This includes all forms of media, communications, and technology.  In the following Psalms, The Holy Spirit sets expectations based on us waiting on THE LORD:

Psalm 27:14  Wait on the LORD;

Be of good courage,

And He shall strengthen your heart;

Wait, I say, on the LORD!

Psalm 37:9 For evildoers shall be cut off;

But those who wait on the LORD,

They shall inherit the earth.

Psalm 37:34 Wait on the LORD,

And keep His way,

And He shall exalt you to inherit the land;

When the wicked are cut off, you shall see it.

What happens when you wait on THE LORD?  HE begins to speak to you and give you revelation.  True revelation will cause you to act in a way you haven’t in the past.  Our thoughts begin to line up with FATHER’S Divine Intent.  Revelation demolishes fantasies and deceptions originating in the natural, carnal realm.  FATHER gives us revelation with the intent to apply that revelation to our lives.  When we hear a Truth from Heaven, we should expect to walk in that Truth with power and authority

Paul wrote by THE SPIRIT in 2 Corinthians chapter 10:

3–4 For although we live in the natural realm, we don’t wage a military campaign employing human weapons, using manipulation to achieve our aims. Instead, our spiritual weapons are energized with Divine power to effectively dismantle the defenses behind which people hide. 5 We can demolish every deceptive fantasy that opposes God and break through every arrogant attitude that is raised up in defiance of the true knowledge of God. We capture, like prisoners of war, every thought and insist that it bow in obedience to the Anointed One.

It is written by The Holy Spirit in Hebrews chapter 11:

3 Faith empowers us to see that the universe was created and beautifully coordinated by the power of God’s Words! HE spoke and the invisible realm gave birth to all that is seen.

When FATHER speaks, our faith increases.  HIS Words are filled with power and authority for They are creative and corrective by Their very nature.  With all diligence we should be seeking to hear.  This is done by removing all “voices” of distraction.

When we hear FATHER, our faith is energized and aligns with FATHER’S Divine Intent.  When our faith is fully matured, we will speak with the same power and authority as Jesus.  We then will properly embrace His Words in Mark chapter 11:

22 Jesus replied, “Let the faith of God be in you! 23 Listen to the Truth I speak to you: If someone says to this mountain with great faith and having no doubt, ‘Mountain, be lifted up and thrown into the midst of the sea,’ and believes that what he says will happen, it will be done. 24 This is the reason I urge you to boldly believe for whatever you ask for in prayer—believe that you have received it and it will be yours.”

We will only speak what is needful and appropriate when dealing with such situations for we have been deemed trustworthy with the power and authority granted to us as our reward for diligently seeking and waiting on THE LORD.

You and I are intended to establish the Kingdom of GOD in this realm.  It is already established in Heaven so we are to bring forth the Spiritual into the physical realm here on earth.

FATHER’S Words increase the “vibrations” in us which are life-giving.  Sickness lowers our vibrations whereas HIS Words increase our internal vibrations.  Our internal electrical system reflects such vibrations.  As we immerse ourselves in HIS Word, change will occur in all three areas: spirit, soul, and body.  We must exercise patience as FATHER trains us up even if we suffer pain during the training.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Hebrews chapter 12 concerning our training:

2 We look away from the natural realm and we fasten our gaze onto Jesus Who birthed faith within us and who leads us forward into faith’s perfection. His example is this: Because his heart was focused on the joy of knowing that you would be His, He endured the agony of the cross and conquered its humiliation, and now sits exalted at the right hand of the throne of God!

3 So consider carefully how Jesus faced such intense opposition from sinners who opposed their own souls, so that you won’t become worn down and cave in under life’s pressures. 4 After all, you have not yet reached the point of sweating blood in your opposition to sin. 5 And have you forgotten his encouraging words spoken to you as His children? He said,

“My child, don’t underestimate the value

    of the discipline and training of the Lord God,

    or get depressed when HE has to correct you.

6 For the Lord’s training of your life

    is the evidence of HIS faithful Love.

    And when HE draws you to HIMSELF,

    it proves you are HIS delightful child.”

Be patient and wait on THE LORD!

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Hebrews chapter 11:

6 But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a Rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.

Do you really believe FATHER, Jesus, and The Holy Spirit will reward you as you diligently seek THEM?  What would happen if you caught up to Jesus?  What rewards would be given to you?  What would be withheld from you?  Nothing!

Those who read these daily writings are clearly diligent in their seeking a deeper relationship with Our Heavenly Father… as I am.  I wait on The Holy Spirit to instruct me on what topic to write about even though I sometimes study several areas in an early morning Bible study.  I only want to post what FATHER desires for us to focus on for that day.

A fully mature Son or Daughter will ultimately walk in resurrection power and minister just as Jesus did, Our Example of earthly ministry.  We should not expect anything less if we truly believe that FATHER is a Rewarder of those who diligently seek HIM.

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

11 I have been commissioned to preach the wonderful news of the glory of the exalted God. 12 My heart spills over with thanks to God for the way HE continually empowers me, and to our Lord Jesus, the Anointed One, who found me trustworthy and who authorized me to be His partner in this ministry.

Jesus sought Paul out and commissioned him to minister life and restoration through him, a perfect example of Agape Love.  Paul further testified:

13 Mercy kissed me, even though I used to be a blasphemer, a persecutor of believers, and a scorner of what turned out to be true. I was ignorant and didn’t know what I was doing. 14 I was flooded with such incredible grace, like a river overflowing its banks, until I was full of faith and Love for Jesus, the Anointed One!

15 I can testify that the Word is true and deserves to be received by all, for Jesus Christ came into the world to bring sinners back to life—even me, the worst sinner of all! 16 Yet I was captured by grace, so that Jesus Christ could display through me the outpouring of his Spirit as a pattern to be seen for all those who would believe IN HIM for eternal life.

Paul diligently sought HIM and was rewarded immensely.  Paul’s past was erased by the grace and mercy through the precious Blood of Christ.  Paul fully embraced the importance of The Blood thus he did not let his past keep him from embracing his destiny.  We need to take on this same mindset and accept the fact that our diligence will be rewarded beyond our greatest expectations!

Peter wrote by THE SPIRIT in 2^nd Peter chapter 1:

3 Everything we could ever need for life and complete devotion to God has already been deposited in us by HIS Divine power. For all this was lavished upon us through the rich experience of knowing Him who has called us by name and invited us to come to Him through a glorious manifestation of His goodness. 4 As a result of this, He has given you magnificent promises that are beyond all price, so that through the power of these tremendous promises you can experience partnership with the Divine Nature, by which you have escaped the corrupt desires that are of the world.

One of our rewards is to walk in the Divine Nature of resurrection power.  When we walk in this state, we also will experience Divine health and no longer need physical healing, since our bodies are fully submitted to their intended design and operation. 

Jesus was never sick but ministered healing and restoration to those who were.  We are meant to walk and minister in the same manner.  This is just one of our rewards.  We should be fulfilled in every area and lack nothing.  It is time for us to expect our rewards for our passion and diligence in seeking HIM for HE is not reluctant to reward us.  The only restriction has been our past mindset.  Let us fully embrace the reality of Hebrews 11:6 today.

We are accountable to Our Heavenly Father for our words, actions, and resources.  Make no mistake, there will be a full audit conducted of all three areas and we will not be able to skirt the issues found in our audit.  This is why we must focus our attention on hearing and responding to The Holy Spirit day by day. 

FATHER is not a harsh taskmaster but a Loving FATHER WHO wants HIS children to be HIS expressed image.  HE watches over HIS Words so HE wants us to watch over our words. 

HE takes actions in accordance with HIS Divine Nature and HE wants us to “image” HIS Divine Nature in our actions.  HE is not reluctant to use HIS resources on our behalf and bless those who “image” HIS Divine Nature.  Our mindset needs to reflect HIS in all three areas.

Jesus expressed FATHER’S Character in the following story.  These are His Words not mine.  Why does The Holy Spirit have me write on finances?  It is clearly important to FATHER that we disconnect from the most subtle deception of greed. 

Greed stops the flow from Heaven and people in need suffer from it.  When people see us bless them in a tangible way, often our actions speak much louder than our words.  They want to know more about whom we are and it opens the door to our testimony.

Jesus spoke in Luke chapter 16:

1 Jesus taught his disciples using this story:

“There was once a very rich man who hired a manager to run his business and oversee all his wealth. But soon a rumor spread that the manager was wasting his master’s money. 2 So the master called him in and said, ‘Is it true that you are mismanaging my estate? You need to provide me with a complete audit of everything you oversee for me. I’ve decided to dismiss you.’

3 “The manager thought, ‘Now what am I going to do? I’m finished here. I can’t hide what I’ve done, and I’m too proud to beg to get my job back. 4 I have an idea that will secure my future. It will win me favor and secure friends who can take care of me and help me when I get fired!’

5 “So the dishonest manager hatched his scheme. He went to everyone who owed his master money, one by one, and he asked them, ‘How much do you owe my master?’ 6–7 One debtor owed twenty thousand dollars, so he said to him, ‘Let me see your bill. Pay me now and we’ll settle for twenty percent less.’ The clever manager scratched out the original amount owed and reduced it by twenty percent. And to another who owed two hundred thousand dollars, he said, ‘Pay me now and we’ll reduce your bill by fifty percent.’ And the clever manager scratched out the original amount owed and reduced it by half.

8 “Even though his master was defrauded, when he found out about the shrewd way this manager had feathered his own nest, he congratulated the clever scoundrel for what he’d done to lay up for his future needs.”

Jesus continued, “Remember this: The sons of darkness are more shrewd than the sons of light in their interactions with others. 9 It is important that you use the wealth of this world to demonstrate your friendship with God by winning friends and blessing others. Then, when this world fails and falls apart, your generosity will provide you with an eternal reward.

10 “The one who manages the little he has been given with faithfulness and integrity will be promoted and trusted with greater responsibilities. But those who cheat with the little they have been given will not be considered trustworthy to receive more. 11 If you have not handled the riches of this world with integrity, why should you be trusted with the eternal treasures of the spiritual world? 12 And if you’ve not been proven faithful with what belongs to another, why should you be given wealth of your own? 13 It is impossible for a person to serve two masters at the same time. You will be forced to love one and reject the other. One master will be despised and the other will have your loyal devotion. It is no different with God and the wealth of this world. You must enthusiastically love one and definitively reject the other.”

14 Now, the Jewish religious leaders who were listening to Jesus were lovers of money. They laughed at what he said and mocked his teachings.

15 So Jesus addressed them directly. “You always want to look spiritual in the eyes of others, but you have forgotten the eyes of God, which see what is inside you. The very things that you approve of and applaud are the things God despises. 16 The law of Moses and the revelation of the prophets have prepared you for the arrival of the kingdom realm announced by John. And now, when this wonderful news of God’s kingdom realm is preached, people’s hearts burn with extreme passion to press in and receive it. 17 Heaven and earth will disintegrate before even the smallest detail of the word of God will fail or lose its power.”

Character and integrity are both critical for us to walk in as mature Sons and Daughters.  Everything we say and do is recorded in Heaven… both the good and the bad.  Let us repent daily of those things that are contrary to the mindset of Jesus Christ. 

People wonder why they are not being prospered in the area of resources and the above story may provide them with their answer.  We are meant to walk according to all the teachings of Jesus, not just some of them.  As we do, any flaws in our character will be cleansed and we will achieve a greater level of maturity in Christ. 

Jesus was generous with resources and He only acted in a manner consistent with FATHER.  We should have the same mindset no matter what our current state.  Our mindsets must change in the areas of our weaknesses.  Otherwise, we will not pass our audits.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Romans 14:

 ¹¹ Just as it is written:

“As surely as I am the Living God, I tell you:
    ‘Every knee will bow before ME
    and every tongue will confess the Truth
    and glorify ME!’ ”

¹² Therefore, each one must answer for himself and give a personal account of his own life before God.

And in Hebrews chapter 4:

¹³ There is not one person who can hide their thoughts from God, for nothing that we do remains a secret, and nothing created is concealed, but everything is exposed and defenseless before HIS Eyes, to whom we must render an account.

It is written by The Holy Spirit in Genesis 11:

1 At one time all the people of the world spoke the same language and used the same words. 2 As the people migrated to the east, they found a plain in the land of Babylonia and settled there.

3 They began saying to each other, “Let’s make bricks and harden them with fire.” (In this region bricks were used instead of stone, and tar was used for mortar.) 4 Then they said, “Come, let’s build a great city for ourselves with a tower that reaches into the sky. This will make us famous and keep us from being scattered all over the world.”

5 But the LORD came down to look at the city and the tower the people were building. 6 “Look!” HE said. “The people are united, and they all speak the same language. After this, nothing they set out to do will be impossible for them! 7 Come, let’s go down and confuse the people with different languages. Then they won’t be able to understand each other.”

8 In that way, the LORD scattered them all over the world, and they stopped building the city. 9 That is why the city was called Babel, because that is where the LORD confused the people with different languages. In this way HE scattered them all over the world.

The devil is fully aware of what can take place when people speak the same language, same understanding, and are in full unity.  Nothing they do will be impossible for them.

What did the coronavirus pandemic do?  It separated everyone and caused confusion.  Authorities forbid people to gather in unity.  The pandemic has functioned in a manner similar to what FATHER did to Babylon.  Do the adversary’s devices surprise us?  Not in the least!  This is a desperate attempt to stop the move of THE SPIRIT currently underway so we must not be moved by the world’s current events.

Jesus reversed the confusion of Babylon at Pentecost.  He sent The Holy Spirit to bring us into unity and to speak the same language.  Nothing we imagine as a unified Body should be impossible!  If we will only embrace this reality, we will expand FATHER’S Kingdom like never before.

In Matthew chapter 18, Jesus spoke:

18 “Receive this Truth: Whatever you forbid on earth will be considered to be forbidden in Heaven, and whatever you release on earth will be considered to be released in Heaven. 19 Again, I give you an eternal Truth: If two of you agree to ask God for something in a symphony of prayer, My Heavenly Father will do it for you. 20 For wherever two or three come together in honor of My Name, I am right there with them!”

Jesus spoke Absolute Truth and now is the time for us to fully embrace this passage.  We need to come into full unity with each other and that can only be accomplished by exalting Jesus Christ above all.

I believe that 2021 is the year for us to see good fruit resulting from the unity of the mature Sons and Daughters.  The Holy Spirit will lead and guide us into this manifestation of unity as we fully submit ourselves to be led by THE SPIRIT.  Past doctrines which contained some error will be exposed in order to remove any issues among the brethren.

Paul provided us an example as he wrote by The  Holy Spirit in 1 Corinthians chapter 2:

1 And I, brethren, when I came to you, did not come with excellence of speech or of wisdom declaring to you the testimony of God. 2 For I determined not to know anything among you except Jesus Christ and Him crucified. 3 I was with you in weakness, in fear, and in much trembling. 4 And my speech and my preaching were not with persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, 5 that your faith should not be in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.

Let us embrace this mindset and come into full unity.
