THE
MINISTRY LETTER 2007 ISSUE 12
To all
handmaidens and bondservants of the Lord Jesus Christ:
"EVERY LAST CHRISTIAN WALKING THE FACE OF THIS
EARTH KNOWS THE FATHER JUST AS WELL AS THEY HAVE DESIRED TO KNOW HIM"
In
this final hour people are going to end up exactly where they have chosen to
end up. Every last Christian walking the face of this earth knows the Father
just as well as they have desired to know Him. There are no restrictions upon
knowing Him and His ways, and of course it is His earnest desire that each one
of His children come to know Him to a greater degree with each passing day. It
is extremely important that every Christian make a quality decision to come to
know Him to a continually deeper degree - for it is from this place of intimacy
that ALL things pertaining to the true Christian life are both revealed and
brought into reality - through the perfect empowerment of the Holy Spirit.
There are many people walking the face of the earth in this hour who believe
that everything will work out all right for them - yet they have not tended to
[nurtured-cultivated] their relationship with the Father and His Word - on HIS
terms. Thus, they leave themselves in a place of vulnerability where the vile
attacks of the Evil One are concerned because, quite simply, they have remained
in "his" territory [the world]. When one has the choice to walk
through a "field" with no land mines in it [the Kingdom] or one
filled with land mines [the world] they had better make the right[eous] choice!
"THE END [OR THE LEGACY] OF ONE WHO ABIDES IN
THE PLACE OF BEING RIGHTEOUSLY MOTIVATED IN ALL THINGS IS THE PERFECT
FULFILLMENT OF THEIR DESTINY IN CHRIST"
All
those who continue to allow any ground of "sin-consciousness"
[darkness and unbelief] to remain - ground which remains only because of a
"distinct" lack of intimate fellowship with the Father and His Word -
shall enter into deep darkness and deep sin [rebellion] in this final hour. But
all those who truly desire the fulness of God's will for their life and
ministry shall SURELY enter into the fulness of Kingdom-life and, thus, the
Kingdom-position that is theirs in Christ. The end [or the legacy] of one who
abides in the place of being righteously motivated in all things is the perfect
fulfillment of their destiny in Christ. In other words, EVERYTHING that they
were created for. This is the life of abiding in divine prosperity and
blessing. The fact is, that when an unrighteously motivated person receives
"blessing" [prospers outwardly] they will NEVER acknowledge God in
that, ultimately, because their innermost desire remains the seeking of
"self-glory" and, thus they continually forge a path which seems
good, but its end is death and darkness.
"THE CONTINUED PRACTICE OF TRUST"
It is
written that God will NEVER fail us nor forsake us, and the thing that brings
that into the place of spiritual reality in the heart of the believer is the
continued practice of trust toward the Father and His Word. If one continues to
trust God in any given situation - time after time after time - then they shall
gain a burning revelation of that truth. It will NEVER matter what things look
like or "seem" like they will become a man or a woman of faith. The
Father is preparing His people to withstand - perfectly - any and every attack
of Satan and his forces in this final hour - regardless of the degree of
intensity, and so it is certain that an absolute [perfect] faith is required.
"WHEN ONE IS SO FILLED WITH A DIVINE REVELATION
OF SPIRITUAL REALITY CONCERNING WHO THEY ARE IN CHRIST, AND THE PERFECTION OF
THE FATHER'S CHARACTER AND HEART TOWARDS THEM THEN SATAN CANNOT HANDLE THEM OR
CONTROL THEM"
When
one is so filled with a divine revelation of spiritual reality concerning who
they are in Christ, and the perfection of the Father's character and heart
towards them then Satan cannot handle them or control them. Why? Because they
do not have any fear and that translates into them not having any capacity
within them to believe ANY of his lies. They know beyond a shadow of a doubt
that no matter what Satan attempts he is going to end up experiencing an
absolute defeat, and that they - in their faithfulness - shall end up being
elevated in the Kingdom - empowered to lay an even greater devastation on him
and his forces in the days ahead! This is spiritual reality and this is the
reason why the things that are being preached are being preached and taught in
the "true" spiritual environments throughout the Body of Christ. It
is the ministry of the Holy Spirit to bring each and every child of God into
the place wherein they are continually partaking of - and manifesting - the
nature of God abiding within them. From that place of partaking and abiding one
shall continually be found manifesting His life, His love, His light, His
wisdom and His truth - saying and doing that which is necessary to truly set
the captives free.
Let us hear the words of the Father:
"IT IS NOW A TIME OF GATHERING TOGETHER THOSE OF
MY CHILDREN WHO ARE WALKING IN THE LIGHT"
...."It
is now a time of gathering together those of My children who are walking in the
light; and to those who allow darkness to enter in - they shall reap just as
they have sown, for there is a way which seems right to some of My children,
but truly, truly, its end is the way of death. Again I say to you that all
which comes upon the "sons of disobedience" is designed for their
greatest eternal benefit. Keep your mind set on the things above at every turn
- for great darkness will cover the peoples, and only those who desire to see
Me from their heart of hearts will see Me. For I have not hidden Myself from
them, but rather it is they who have, by an act of their will, removed
themselves from the paths of righteousness [My perfect will]. Guard your heart
with all diligence, My faithful ones, for you shall be great and mighty vessels
of My deliverance to those who have allowed themselves to be held
captive"....
"IT IS A TIME OF GREAT SPIRITUAL DARKNESS...FOR
THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN CONTENT TO RIDE THE CREST [WAVE] OF WORLDLINESS WHICH SEEKS
TO LURE MY PEOPLE AWAY FROM ME"
...."It
is a time of great "spiritual darkness" for those of My children who
have been content to ride the crest [wave] of worldliness which seeks to lure
My people away from Me - and the close intimate fellowship [relationship] I so
desire to have with each and every one of My children. Even some who once
walked with Me have "allowed" themselves to be deceived by the Evil
One and have hardened their hearts against Me. Because of this they have cast
the words which I have delivered through My servants, the prophets, behind
them"....
"THE GREATEST SINGLE CAUSE FOR MY CHILDREN NOT
SEPARATING THEMSELVES WHOLLY UNTO ME IS THEIR REFUSAL TO LET GO OF EVERY
EMOTIONAL ATTACHMENT"
...."The
greatest single cause for My children not separating themselves wholly unto Me
is their refusal to let go of every "emotional attachment", which
serves only to bind and restrict them from carrying out My will. They do not
realize that a continual dependence upon that emotional attachment will
eventually lead them into death and darkness - the end result being separation
from the very thing they attached themselves to. It is a foolish thing for My
children to believe that I, in any way, would hinder any one of their
relationships. But, it is certain that I desire to have each and every
relationship "renewed" by the power of My Spirit - for it is only as
My children have My love shed abroad in their hearts, that will enable them to
be a pure vessel of My love to "all" who cross their path"....
"SOME EVENTS ARE ABOUT TO TAKE PLACE WHICH WILL
CAUSE ALL THOSE WHO LIVE AN IMITATION CHRISTIAN LIFE TO SEE CLEARLY...THEIR
NEED FOR A PERSONAL AND INTIMATE FELLOWSHIP WITH ME"
...."Some
events are about to take place which will cause all those who live an
"imitation" Christian life to see clearly - beyond a shadow of doubt
- their need for a personal and intimate relationship with Me. And because of
these events which shall take place they will be forced to scramble hurriedly
into My presence - and the presence of those who walk with Me - or, in
rejecting Me, by an act of their own will, they shall be attacked openly by the
Evil One!"....
"IN EVERY ENDEAVOUR - NO MATTER HOW SMALL IT SEEMS
- YOU MUST ACKNOWLEDGE ME"
...."In
every endeavour - no matter how small it seems - you must acknowledge Me. It
may be only seconds or it may be hours; but through this you will learn to not
make one move without seeking the Greater One who resides within you. This step
is most important to those truly seeking to walk [abide] in My perfect will,
but there is also another purpose in this. It will enable Me to pour out My
blessing and power through My bondservants and handmaidens to the degree I had
intended - for there will be no blockages [preconceived notions] within them to
hinder the outpouring of My Spirit"....
"THERE IS ONLY ONE WAY TO ESCAPE AND RISE ABOVE
THE EVIL IN THE WORLD AND THAT IS TO ACKNOWLEDGE MY WORD AT ALL TIMES, AND HEED
THE VOICE OF MY SPIRIT"
...."My
children must be obedient, in all things, to My Word and My Spirit - for their
very survival in the earth depends on it! They need to draw near to Me and put
aside the deceptions and fears they have retained [maintained]. How blessed are
those who will hearken to the voice of My servants, the [true] prophets in this
last hour - for success or failure will depend on the reaction of My church to
My Word and to the messages which are given to My messengers, the prophets. For
truly I say to you there is only one way to escape and rise above the evil in
the world and that is to acknowledge My Word at ALL times, and heed the voice
of My Spirit. Bow your knee to no one for I am with you in all that you do, My
beloved ones. Do not concern yourself with the approval of carnal men, for
their eyes are blinded by the darkness in their souls, but behold in you a
great light shall shine forth and, behold, the captives shall be set
free"....
"EACH ONE OF MY CHILDREN IS ON ONE OF TWO PATHS
AT ANY GIVEN MOMENT: THE NARROW PATH OF PERFECT OBEDIENCE OR THE BROAD PATH OF
DESTRUCTION"
...."It
is time for all of My people to understand this one thing: that they are to bow
their knee to no "authority" which is apart from Christ! They are to
acknowledge Me in "all" of their ways, that I might direct their
paths, a direction I might add, without which, they shall surely perish at the
hands of Satan. For each one of My children is on one of two paths at any given
moment: the narrow path of My perfect will or the broad path of destruction - a
path, if which not forsaken, shall lead them into the place of
"non-resistance" to the schemes of Satan and ultimately an
"open" attack upon their lives"....
"SIN-CONSCIOUSNESS...ANY BELIEF HELD TO APART
FROM THE REVELATION KNOWLEDGE IMPARTED BY MY SPIRIT - THE SPIRIT OF WISDOM AND
REVELATION"
...."Sin-consciousness"
is the "mind-set" that believes and practices [holds to] words or
doctrines that are the product of a "mental ascension" to My
Word. It is "any" belief held to apart from the "revelation
knowledge" imparted by My Spirit - the Spirit of wisdom and revelation.
The chief characteristic of ALL "sin-consciousness" is that it denies
to some degree the power of the Precious Blood of My dear Son - a
"power" that is needed for each and every one of My children to
victoriously "rise above" the attempts on their life and ministry by
the Evil One in this last hour - and ALWAYS leaves that one holding to
[believing in] it in a position of "non-resistance" to the
destructive schemes of Satan and his forces. The "refusal" to
separate oneself from the "bondage" and "darkness" of
sin-consciousness in this last hour shall result in that one taking up a
position - by their own choice - outside the Covenants of Promise and thus they
[and those with them] shall be "openly" attacked by Satan and his
forces due to the "lawlessness" at work within them until such a time
as a deep and thorough repentance is forthcoming!"....
"THAT WHICH PROCEEDS FROM THE FLESH IS FLESH,
AND SEEKS ONLY TO EXALT SELF IN ITS ENDLESS PURSUIT OF SELF-GLORY AND
SELF-EXALTATION - AND ITS END IS INCREASING DARKNESS AND DISTANCE FROM MY TRUE
PLAN FOR THEIR LIFE AND MINISTRY"
...."All
those who have allowed themselves to be held captive by a spirit of
self-exaltation are deceived! For they "unconsciously" hold to the
belief that in their own "self-exaltive" practices I shall be
glorified and exalted, but that is "never" the case! Truly I say to
you, that which proceeds from the flesh is flesh, and seeks only to exalt
"self" in its endless pursuit of "self-glory" and
"self-exaltation" - and its end is increasing darkness and distance
from My true plan for their life and ministry. Because of this their eyes
cannot see and their hearts will not hear the "revelation knowledge"
pertaining to My true Church and My true plan in this last hour. And unless a
thorough repentance is forthcoming they shall surely be found fighting against
My obedient ones in this last hour!"....
"A HOLY CAUTION IN MY CHILDREN IS THAT STATE OF
THE HEART WHICH PRODUCES A WATCHFUL EYE FOR MY WORD IN EVERY SITUATION"
...."A
wise man is "cautious" and turns away from evil"....
Proverbs 14:16 Nasb
A holy caution
in My children is that state of the heart which produces a watchful eye for My
Word in every situation. This in no way denotes fear, but rather a continual
trust in Me. This continual trust is an attitude of heart which protects My
children from any "intrusion" [encroachment-infringement] of evil.
"Caution" exercised by one who is double-minded [James 4:8] is always
based in fear. Caution exercised by the pure-hearted believer is always based
on faith - and obedience to My command to be of sober spirit and to remain
alert to the wiles of the Evil One [1 Peter 5:8]. In this true state of heart
the only desire of that one is to remain inside the Covenant they have with Me
- a Covenant which was ratified by the Blood of Jesus - and they are therefore
ALWAYS alert in their dependence upon [acknowledgement] My Word"....
"IN THESE DAYS I AM PLANTING THE SEEDS OF
[TRUE] KNOWLEDGE AND REVELATION IN THE HEARTS OF ALL THOSE WHO TRULY LOVE
ME"
...."As
I seek to establish My spotless and unblemished Church in this last hour, one
can in no way "look" out upon the masses of My children and see what
needs to be seen. My next "key" move is the sending forth of the
"final wave[s]" of My five-fold ministry. In these days I am planting
the "seeds" of [true] knowledge and revelation in the hearts of
"all" those who truly love Me. Then, as I send forth My holy apostles
and prophets, speaking the deepest thoughts and intentions of My heart
concerning My Church and My Kingdom, these consecrated and holy ones of Mine -
through their continued "willingness" to do all of My will - shall
know beyond a shadow of a doubt that the words which have been spoken through
the holy apostles and prophets are Mine, and they shall "freely" obey
and conform themselves to My wisdom [plan] for My Church in this last hour.
Because of these things, the "true" Church, which from before the
creation of the earth was a "spiritual reality" shall become a
"physical" reality - crashing down the boundaries of time and space,
bringing the "true" light into the darkness, the holy into the
secular and the sacred into the profane - kingdom against kingdom!
"GLORIOUS CONNECTIONS - PERFECT SPIRITUAL
POSITIONING"
...."There
is much that many of My children have "mentally-ascended" to
concerning "My" plan for the Church in this last hour and unless they
forsake their "own" ideas they shall never be in the "right
place" at the "right time" to make the "glorious
connections" - and perfect spiritual positioning which I have ordained for
them"....
*****
MEDITATIONS ON THE TRUE CHRISTIAN LIFE:
+ In
the Old Testament times the Holy Spirit's work as indicated in the Scriptures
was in Creation, renewing the face of the earth, inspiring men to write the
holy oracles of God, and coming upon men and women for special operations and
special works of might and leadership. His permanent home then was in the
Tabernacle, afterward, the Temple. The Holy Spirit did not make His permanent
in the body of man then, because man was spiritually dead, a child of the
Devil, though he lived under a blood Covenant and was sheltered by the
Atonement blood as he walked in obedience to God. The Holy Spirit could not
make His home in the human body until man had been recreated. This could not
take place until Christ had come and paid the penalty of sin, taken His seat as
Mediator, and sent Eternal Life to the men who would take Him as Saviour. The
Holy Spirit's work today is: first, that of a convicter of the world. He does
this through the preached Word, through the Living Word in the lives of
believers, through the written Word, the Scriptures, or anointed literature
pertaining to them. His work in the individual members of the family of God is that
of a Teacher, Guide, Comforter, Overcomer, and Sanctifier. The Holy Spirit's
real home is in the heart of God's children, but He does not come into every
believer, in His fulness, at the New Birth. The New Birth is receiving the
life, the nature of God. This makes him a child of God and a human temple of
the Holy Spirit to indwell. After they are born-again, they have a legal right
to ask the Holy Spirit to come into their body to take possession of it.
+ If any man is in
Christ - baptized into His death - through the gateway of the Cross they enter
the sphere where Christ becomes their environment, as well as their new source
of life. Joined to the living Christ, old things pass away, for in Christ there
is a new creation, not an improving, or culture of the old. On the life side of
the Cross the soul united to the living Christ is said to put on the "new
man". By the daily supply of the Spirit of Jesus the "new man"
grows continually to a more perfect knowledge and likeness of their Creator and
grows up "after the image of Him that created him", in the sphere
where "Christ is all and in all". The child naturally grows up in the
likeness of their father, and the new life communicated to the redeemed, grows
up in the likeness of Him who is the Creator of the new creation, if so be that
the death with Christ is inflinchingly recognized, and "old things"
are truly allowed to pass away to make room for the growth of the new man
"which is after God....created in righteousness, and holiness of
truth".
+ We read of Christ's
learning obedience, and so being made perfect. This is the true maturity or
perfection, the true wisdom among the perfect, the knowing and doing God's
will. We read of strong food for the perfect, who by reason of use have their
senses exercised to discern good and evil. Here again perfection is, even as
with Christ, the disposition, the character that is formed when one makes
conformity to God's will, fellowship with God in His holiness, the one aim of
their life.

GOLDEN MANNA FROM THE MOUNT
I HAVE COME TO YOU AS THE LORD OF THE BREAKTHROUGH
Bill Burns
ft111@spiritofprophecy.com
http://ft111.com
What
is it, My people, that you are hearing? Is it not the sound of victory? The
reason that you hear that sound is because I have come to you as the Lord of
the Breakthrough. I will cause you to break through all hindrances, adversity,
and everything that stands in your way. I will interfere with the enemy's
efforts to steal from you, for this is the day of My blessing and favor. I say,
write a decree and make a proclamation, for My word will not return to Me void.
Write it in My name, for I am the Lord of the Breakthrough. I will bring
victory. I stand before the whole creation, and I rule the universe and all
that is in it. Therefore, I give you permission to use My name and write that
which needs to be accomplished in your life that will break you through into
the promise of victory in this season, says the Lord.
THERE IS NO ONE ELSE IN THE WHOLE OF THE WORLD
THAT CAN FULFILL YOUR DESTINY
This
is the sound of the brooding of the Spirit who is now brooding over you, and
encouraging you to come boldly before the throne of grace. Come boldly to
receive. Come boldly in this season, says the Lord, for surely you shall
receive the blessing of the age. Come and know Me and therefore receive
that which I hold in tension for you. For when you arise to that position
of glorious faith it shall be given unto you, good measure, pressed down,
shaken together will I pour out into your life the blessings of the kingdom and
that which I hold for you. There is no one else in the whole of the world that
can fulfill your destiny and your position in My kingdom, says the Lord.
So come and fulfill your destiny. Come and believe with the fullness of
heart. Come and receive with hearts and hands wide open. Come and
be that which I have written into your book of life and that which you will
become, if you so desire, and if you seek Me with all of your heart, says the
Lord God.

I HAVE DRAWN A LINE - A LINE OF DEMARCATION
Marsha Burns
ft111@spiritofprophecy.com
http://ft111.com
I saw a line
that arched over the sanctuary, and it seemed that the light was a silver color
under the line and a golden color above the line. I heard the Lord say,
"I
have drawn a line, a line of demarcation, for you to step over and into a
greater dimension of the power of My kingdom. Those who cross the line will
never go back."
...."
On the same day, when evening had come, He [Jesus] said to them, "Let us
cross over to the other side".....
Mark 4:35
YOU MUST BECOME EMPTY OF YOUR OWN DESIRES, AMBITIONS
AND DISTRACTIONS
Do
not despair when the trials and tribulations seem to overcome you and create
chaos, for out of chaos My order in your life will be established. Such was the
condition of the earth before My Spirit hovered over its surface and before I
spoke and called forth light. I speak to many of My people and tell you that
you must become empty of your own desires, ambitions, and distractions. And
then, My Spirit will come even in your darkness, and I will speak from heaven
and bring forth light and divine order, says the Lord.
...."In the
beginning God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form,
and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was
hovering over the face of the waters. Then God said, "Let there be
light"; and there was light"....
Genesis 1:1-3
RENEW YOUR COVENANT WITH ME
Beloved,
renew your covenant with Me; stir the flames of desire for Me. I speak to
hearts that have been distracted from the pure love and devotion that once
burned. Do not seek to be satisfied with things of the world or things that are
temporary and not eternal. Examine your heart to see what truly motivates you,
for you have come to a crossroad where your choices will determine the
direction you will go. You will either come back to Me in greater determination
and consecration, or you will gradually fall away, says the Lord.
...."I know
your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I could wish you were cold or
hot. So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit
you out of My mouth. Because you say, 'I am rich, have become wealthy, and have
need of nothing' --and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor,
blind, and naked--I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire, that
you may be rich; and white garments, that you may be clothed, that the shame of
your nakedness may not be revealed; and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that
you may see. As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore be zealous and
repent"....
Revelation 3:15-19
BREAKTHROUGH IS A PROCESS
Your
continued effort and progress in breakthrough is very much like giving birth.
You will push and gain some ground, rest and breathe, and then push again. I
have already told you that breakthrough is a process, so expect that you will
have minor triumphs before you actually gain the ultimate victory. Don't give
up, says the Lord.
...."Be in
pain, and labor to bring forth, O daughter of Zion, like a woman in birth
pangs. For now you shall go forth from the city, you shall dwell in the field,
and to Babylon you shall go. There you shall be delivered; there the LORD will
redeem you from the hand of your enemies"....
Micah 4:10
YOU HAVE ENTERED A WINDOW OF TIME IN WHICH YOU CAN TIE
UP LOOSE ENDS
Now
is the time when you can bring resolution to issues that have been unresolved
until now. Your efforts to bring these things to a conclusion in the past have
gone unrewarded. But, you have entered a window of time in which you can tie up
loose ends of various kinds. Be courageous and do not be afraid to settle your
accounts in an effort to move ahead, says the Lord.
"Have I not
commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be
dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go."
Joshua 1:9
I AM CALLING YOU TO ENTER THE HOLY PLACE
Do
you hear My voice? I am calling to you to enter the Holy Place where I dwell
and listen, says the Lord. I am prepared to impart deep revelation and insight
that will truly set you free to fulfill your destiny. Do not come with
hesitation or doubt; come with complete assurance that I will meet with you in
the secret place and commune with you there. Come, My Beloved.
...."But
you, when you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut your door, pray
to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret
will reward you openly"....
Matthew 6:6

THE DAYS AHEAD
PART THREE
THE FATHER IS GOING TO REVEAL THE DEPTHS
OF HIS CHARACTER AND FATHERHOOD TO A CONTINUALLY GREATER DEGREE
In
the days ahead the Father is going to reveal the depths of His character and
Fatherhood to a continually greater degree. It is His very strong desire that
each and every one of His beloved children come into that place of a perfect
and intimate fellowship with Him on a daily basis.
Let us hear the words of the Father concerning this
very thing:
"A FIRE THAT SHALL CONSUME EVERY
MISREPRESENTATION AND LIE CONCERNING ME"
...."I
shall abide in My holy apostles and prophets and they shall abide in Me. And I
shall reveal Myself [My Fatherhood] through them wherever they go and in
whatever they speak. And I shall bless [empower] them with a "special
anointing" of My "Holy Fire" - a Fire that shall consume every
"misrepresentation" and "lie" concerning Me. And this
"anointing of Fire" shall also release great waves of healing and
restoration in the wake of the path that I shall lead them on. And I shall lead
them to many and I shall lead many to them for truly I say to you, the
multitudes shall see a "great light" and as that great light exposes
any and every "ground of irreconciliation" concerning their
relationships with their "fathers" and "mothers" - and
therefore their "irreconciliations" with Me - I shall supernaturally
heal and restore all who will simply cast down any remaining ground of
"unforgiveness" within them - for I cannot and will not honour
unforgiveness in any way, shape or form!
"MANY SHALL COME - FOR THE FIRST TIME - INTO A
PROPER RELATIONSHIP WITH ME"
Because
of these things many shall come, for the first time, into a "proper"
relationship with Me and truly I say to you, from this place they shall
"then" take their true position of leadership [servanthood] within
the Body of Christ and in "their" perfect restoration there shall
"immediately" come forth a great and glorious restoration of the
"family" and a great and glorious restoration of true spiritual
authority in the midst of all those who truly love Me. And there shall not be
"any" religious spirit found to be "standing" in their
path! And thus, shall the final stages of My great and glorious plan come to
pass and in that moment I shall receive My precious sons and daughters into My
very presence for eternity!"....
THE IMPORTANCE OF MAINTAINING A CLEAR AND ETERNAL
PERSPECTIVE
Eternity
has literally begun for us, as Christians. Everything that is being said and
done by us now is having a distinct effect upon our "positioning" -
both now and in the ages to come. As faithful servants of God we must maintain
- with a perfect diligence - a clear, eternal perspective. The more that Satan
can get the child of God to "focus" on the natural realm [self] the
more he can control them! But if we both have, and maintain, eternal
perspective we can move freely and flow freely in the Spirit KNOWING [by faith]
that we are accomplishing everything that the Father has called and empowered
us to accomplish.
"A GLORIOUS TIME - LIKE NO OTHER - IS UPON
US!"
Many
things are unfolding in these days and it should cause a great excitement to
rise up in the heart that is faithful and pure! Our God is in control - and He
is indeed God Almighty! A glorious time - like no other - is upon us! All those
who are faithful and obedient to God are about to enter into a realm they never
thought possible this side of Heaven! But let it be clearly understood: ONLY
those who are "wholly given" to God - those diligently seeking to
walk in obedience to their "heavenly calling" at ALL cost to
themselves will enter into the fulness of that glorious
"Kingdom-position".
"WE ARE GOING TO BEGIN TO SEE UNHINDERED
EXPLOSIONS OF GOD'S POWER THROUGH HIS PEOPLE"
We are called -
as the Glorious Church - to be imparters of the life and light and love and
truth and wisdom of God! In this final hour, as the Glorious Church begins to
rise up in the earth, we are going to begin to see unhindered explosions of
God's power through His people. This will literally turn the "world"
upside down! We should no longer be a people who are attempting to maintain the
"status quo", but rather a people who are constantly and diligently
seeking the fulness of the Father's will and plan for the remainder of this
dispensation. The things which are about to manifest in the glorious days ahead
are literally "incomprehensible" to even the most sanctified
intellect, and this is precisely why we MUST be a people who walk entirely by
revelation knowledge - a people who are "fused" into the mind of
Christ. We must be a people who are "acclimatized" - spirit, soul and
body to the presence and the ways of God. In this final hour, the failure of
one to put themselves in a position to be "acclimatized" will most
certainly cause them to be "paralyzed" [both spiritually and
physically] in their "attempt" to carry out the will of God - the
reason being, they neglected the intimate fellowship that the Father required
of them, and thus they have no "revelation" of His heart or plan.
"A SEARCH AND DESTROY MISSION"
Events
which manifest in the physical [natural] realm are ALWAYS a prelude [pattern,
type and symbol] to the fulness of the Father's plan concerning the Church, the
nations and Israel. Consequently, we can pick up some things from certain
world events that have taken place in the past few years. In the past, the
Church has had many minor - and perhaps some major - skirmishes with Satan and
his forces, pertaining to the strongholds he has established throughout the
centuries. One of the key manifestations of the Glorious Church will be that we
will be a people who are on a "search and destroy" mission that will
take on the same characteristic as the "shock and awe" tactics
witnessed militarily on the world stage - the main mission being to take down
the principalities and powers.
"IN OUR WAKE THERE WILL BE A PATH LEADING TO
FREEDOM THAT PEOPLE CAN READILY FOLLOW - IF THEY TRULY DESIRE TO BE FREE"
As
all of these things begin to unfold we are going to see a great manifestation
of God's presence in the earth and, thus, many great and wondrous things shall
happen. The people of God will be so busy carrying out the Father's will with a
"pin-point accuracy" that many glorious things shall unfold - and in
our wake there will be a path leading to freedom that people can readily follow
- IF they truly desire to be free. If they do not they will run further and
further into darkness and rebellion. The plan of the spirit of Antichrist
continues and continues and continues, but the reality is that God is unfolding
HIS plan according to His perfect purpose. Regardless of what Satan would like
to do in any given time, when God decides to move He simply moves through His
people and their prayers and the Devil and his schemes MUST cease and desist in
that time.
A DEEP AND ABIDING REVELATION OF THE CROSS MUST BE
FOUND IN THE HEART OF ALL THOSE WHO WOULD TRULY LIVE FOR GOD
In
this last of the last hour only those who have laid their lives down ENTIRELY
shall be found fit for the carrying out of the "true" Kingdom works
that the Father so desires to manifest in this season. It is for this very
reason that a deep and abiding revelation of the Cross must be found in the
heart of all those who would truly live for God. Without a deep and abiding
revelation of the futility [vanity] of anything that is apart from Christ then
one shall SURELY be found on the outside looking in - as the Glorious Church
radically impacts the world in this hour. In these days we must not be found
viewing those things which surround us in any sort of natural [spiritual]
progression. These are the days wherein the atmosphere of the Kingdom shall
overtake and consume all those whose hearts are wholly given to God - all those
truly seeking first the establishment of God's Kingdom, first in the hearts of
men and then physically in the earth. What is about to happen has never been
seen in the earth before - apart from a few glorious glimpses over the
centuries and thus we must be a people who have allowed themselves to be
perfectly prepared in every way -from on high. As the prophet Malachi wrote so many
years ago, we shall once again be able to distinguish between those who truly
serve God and those who do not [those who love God with all of their heart and
those who do not] - as the Glorious Church enters into the fulness of her
authority in Christ. As the Church becomes a holy and pure vessel in the hands
of the Father a great light shall begin to shine forth which shall expose every
work of darkness in its path - setting all those who truly desire to be set
free - free indeed!
