[SPECIAL EDITION]
To all
handmaidens and bondservants of the Lord Jesus Christ:
THE FRUIT OF THE
INNER CHAMBER
SECTION ONE
THERE MUST BE A DISTINCT DRAWING NEAR TO GOD ON OUR
PART IN THE INNER CHAMBER - DAILY
....For the Lord has
chosen Zion; He has desired it for His habitation. This is My resting place
forever; Here I will dwell, for I have desired it. I will abundantly
bless her provision; I will satisfy her needy with bread. Her priests also I
will clothe with salvation, And her godly ones will sing aloud for joy. There I
will cause the horn of David to spring forth; I have prepared a lamp for
Mine anointed. His enemies I will clothe with shame, But upon himself his crown
shall shine....
Psalm 132:13 -18
It is the will of the Father to pour
out the "fullness" of all that He has provided for His precious
children, in Christ. In order for us to partake fully of all that is ours in
the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit there must be a distinct drawing near
to God on our part in the "inner chamber" - DAILY. It is as we are
faithful to do this that the "fruit" of the inner chamber shall begin
to penetrate our lives deeply, and begin to flow forth through us to affect
everyone and everything that crosses our path. As we enter into the holy
presence of our God certain manifestations begin to take place deep within our
being. Firstly, we begin to come to know the love of the Father as never
before, and this produces a divine restoration [spirit, soul and body] and
perfect liberty that can only be described as glorious! When we enter into the
secret place of Gods presence there is a continual light that both shines and
penetrates every last element of darkness and fear that is found in the depths
of our heart. ANY unforgiveness, self-desire, pride, rebellion etc. becomes
totally exposed in this place.
IN THE PLACE OF HOLY CONTRITION BEFORE THE FATHER
THERE IS NO CONDEMNATION OR ACCUSATION - OR ANY OTHER ELEMENT OF DEATH AND
DARKNESS
Related Scriptures: James 4:8a; 1 John
4:8b; Hebrews 12:29; 1 John 4:18;
SECTION TWO
AS ONE COMES INTO A DEEP REVELATION OF THE FATHERS LOVE AND
APPROVAL [ACCEPTANCE] THE FEAR OF MAN [WHAT OTHERS THINK] WILL BECOME A THING
OF THE PAST, AND WILL NO LONGER HAVE ANY POWER OVER ONES LIFE AND MINISTRY
Psalm 2:6
Psalm 50: 2
...."How blessed is the man
whose strength is in Thee; in whose heart are the highways to Zion! Passing
through the valley of Baca, they make it a spring, the early rain also covers
it with blessings. They go from strength to strength; Every one of them
appeareth before God in Zion"....
Psalm 84: 5-7
Another fruit of quality time spent
in the inner chamber is that the child of God will, ultimately, enter into the
place of "abiding" in an absolute faith and trust in the Father and
His Word, alone. It is only in this place of gaining a revelation of the call
to an absolute faith [love] that there will come the total absence of fear in
ones life. One of the great aspects of our Covenant is that, through the Blood
of Jesus shed at Calvary, our perfect liberty was purchased. It must be clearly
understood though that the precious Blood that was shed was so that we, as
Christians, might enter into the place wherein we NO LONGER LIVE FOR OURSELVES.
One of the great problems in the church at large is that vast multitudes
continue to live for themselves - forsaking the exercising of a divine faith
and love to walk in the bondage of fear - and the "wisdom of the world"
that is its spontaneous by-product. Another fruit that is born in the inner
chamber is that our love-walk is perfected. It is in this holy place that every
ground of fear and self-reliance is both exposed and consumed - eternally. As
one comes into a deep revelation of the Father's love and approval [acceptance]
the fear of man [what others think] will become a thing of the past, and will
no longer have ANY power over ones life and ministry.
IT IS THE TIME ONE SPENDS IN THE INNER CHAMBER THAT
NO ONLY INITIATES THE PROCESS OF REVELATION BUT ACCLIMATIZES THAT ONE TO HEAR
THE STILL, SMALL VOICE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
Related Scriptures: 1 John 4:18; 2
Corinthians 5:15; Psalm 119:130; 2 Peter 1:2-11;
SECTION THREE
THROUGH OVER TWENTY CENTURIES SATAN HAS BEEN
ALLOWED TO PERVERT AND DISGUISE THE WILL OF GOD CONCERNING "SPIRITUAL
ZION"
.... that He might
present to Himself the Church in all her Glory, having no spot or wrinkle or
any such thing; but that she should be holy and blameless....
Ephesians 5:27
In these days, it is the Fathers
desire for each and every one of His children to be "filled" with a
revelation of His true purpose and plan for a Glorious Church. There are vast multitudes
of Gods children who are still unaware [although they should be aware] of the
fullness of His plan for a Church that far transcends the bondage and
powerlessness of the denominational structure. Through over twenty centuries
Satan has been allowed to pervert and disguise the will of God concerning
"spiritual Zion" but one has only to diligently study out the
scriptures to both see and understand that - UP UNTIL THIS TIME - the church at
large has fallen far, far short of the Glory of God that will most certainly
manifest in this final hour in the midst of a holy people. There are only two
types of knowledge in this earth: revelation knowledge and sense knowledge.
Those children of God who still maintain a desire to cling to
"sense-knowledge" [an adherence to the five physical senses as ones
final authority] will be found devoid of a revelation of the Fathers plan for a
spotless and unblemished Church - without exception. This causes a great
problem in the midst of Gods people. For in not gaining a revelation of the
true plan of God they are found continually "mentally ascending" to
the Word [Will] of God and, thus, much error and many false doctrines are
the result - including the establishment of many "false" prophetic timetables.
Another fruit of the inner chamber is that one will gain a continually deeper
revelation of the heart of the Father and His Word, and this will produce great
clarity concerning all things - and also produce a smooth and absolute
transition from any form of sin-consciousness into a
righteousness-consciousness and the fullness of Kingdom-living.
IT IS ONLY AN "ABIDING"
RIGHTEOUSNESS-CONSCIOUSNESS THAT WILL PRODUCE A DEEP REVELATION OF ONES
INHERITANCE AND AUTHORITY IN CHRIST
Related Scriptures: Isaiah 26:7a; 2
Corinthians 5:21; John 15:5; Jeremiah 23:1-6; Jeremiah 23:16-22; Matthew
23;
SECTION FOUR
ANOTHER FRUIT OF TIME SPENT IN THE "INNER
CHAMBER" IS BOTH GAINING A REVELATION OF AND EXPERIENCING [WALKING IN]
TRUE RELATIONSHIP
.... Love endures long
and is patient and kind; love never is envious nor boils over with jealousy, is
not boastful or vainglorious, does not display itself haughtily. It is not
conceited [arrogant and inflated with pride]; it is not rude [unmannerly and
does not act unbecomingly. Love [Gods love in us] does not insist on its own
rights or its own way, for it is not self-seeking; it is not touchy or fretful
or resentful; it takes no account of the evil done to it [it pays no attention
to a suffered wrong]. It does not rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness, but
rejoices when right and truth prevail. Love bears up under anything and
everything that comes, is ever ready to believe the best of every person, its
hopes are fadeless under all circumstances, and it endures everything [without
weakening]. Love never fails [never fades out or becomes obsolete or comes to
an end]....
1 Corinthians 13: 4-8a Amplified Translation
Another fruit of time spent in the
"inner chamber" is both gaining a revelation of and experiencing
[walking in] true relationship. In these days, every Christian needs to know
and understand what it is to be loved by the Father. Once one has a deep and
abiding revelation of the Father's love FOR THEM they will NEVER have the
"fear of man" again [seek after the approval and praises of flesh and
blood] - as long as both that revelation and proper relationship with Him are
maintained by the Spirit of Grace. One will never have a problem with
unforgiveness and bitterness - or any "issues" that they may have had
with their own earthly parents [or lack thereof] because they will have come to
the full realization that the Heavenly Father, in reality, is their one, true
Father - and that He has a "perfect" and abiding love towards them.
Having a revelation of the Father's "perfect" love is the catalyst to
one "abiding" in an absolute trust toward [faith in] Him. The essence
of all "true" relationship is based on our fellowship with - and our
obedience to - the Father and His Word. Any "relationship" forged in
the flesh [a relationship forged with a view to one fulfilling their own agenda
and meeting their own selfish desires] leads only to an "emotional
attachment" [soul-tie], and to the degree that that
"relationship" is pursued [maintained] it is to that degree that
Satan is enabled to build a "stronghold" [barrier] of idolatry that
keeps that one separated from a "perfect" fellowship with the Father
in the inner chamber.
THE VISION OF THE "CASCADING" FOUNTAIN
Related Scriptures: Romans 5:5;
SECTION FIVE
A GLORIOUS CONNECTION CAN BE SIMPLY DEFINED AS A
RELATIONSHIP IN THE BODY OF CHRIST THAT HAS BEEN "CONNECTED" OR
JOINED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT - AND IS MAINTAINED BY HIS POWER, ALONE [THE SPIRIT
OF LOVE]
...."Behold, how
good and how pleasant if for brothers to dwell together in unity! It is like
the precious oil upon the head, coming down upon the beard, even Aaron's beard,
coming down upon the edge of his robes. It is like the dew of Hermon, coming
down upon the mountains of Zion; for there the Lord commanded the blessing -
life forever"....
Psalm 133:1-3 NASB
Another fruit of the inner chamber
is that revelation will come forth concerning the "glorious
connections" that the Father has ordained for each one of His children -
with a view to the carrying out of the "Kingdom-service" that they
are called to. A glorious connection can be simply defined as a relationship in
the Body of Christ that has been "connected" or joined by the Holy
Spirit - and is maintained by His power, alone [the Spirit of Love]. It is only
as one spends quality time in the inner chamber that they will ever enter into
an "abiding" obedience, and it is only from that place of obedience
that they will be found in the "right place" at the "right
time" to experience the "glorious connections" that the Father
has ordained for them. The Father is establishing "glorious connections"
in the midst of all those who are truly seeking first His Kingdom - those who
seek to be righteously motivated in all things. He is bringing those together
who will walk in love - at ALL cost to themselves - [first towards Himself and,
then, towards all those He has blessed them with] in order to establish His
perfect purpose [the Glorious Church and the Kingdom] in the earth. One of the
chief characteristics in each of these "holy" relationships that are
being [and have already been] divinely established in this hour is that the
heart of each individual is "wholly given" to the Will of God - both
individually and corporately.
DIVINE CONNECTIONS ARE A HOLY THING IN THE SIGHT OF
THE FATHER - AND WHAT TRANSPIRES THROUGH THEM IN OUR REMAINING TIME IN THIS
DISPENSATION ONLY ETERNITY CAN "FULLY" REVEAL
Related Scriptures: Ephesians 1:17-23;
SECTION SIX
A "TRUE" SPIRITUAL ENVIRONMENT IS
DEFINED SIMPLY AS A PLACE WHERE THE FATHER, THE SON AND THE HOLY SPIRIT CAN BE
ALL THAT THEY DESIRE TO BE IN ANY GIVEN MOMENT
Acts 4:32a
As divine connections are
established by the Father in this hour in the remant Church in every nation it
will produce many true, corporate spiritual environments. A "true"
spiritual environment is defined simply as a place where the Father, the Son
and the Holy Spirit can be ALL that they desire to be in ANY given moment. In a
"true" spiritual environment - an environment where the Word of God
is going forth exactly the way that the Father would have it go forth - the
"incorruptible seed" of His Word will be sown [planted] in the hearts
of the people. As the hearers THEN go forth - in obedience - to spend time with
the Father in the "inner chamber" He is able to enlighten them
further on the "seeds" that have been imparted to their heart. In
this way one can see that great spiritual growth will be produced in these true
spiritual environments in the days ahead, and many shall be perfectly prepared
to enter into the "fullness" of their Kingdom-position in this last
hour. A true, corporate environment will always produce a people who walk by
revelation [faith] - a people in whom there is continually created a deep
hungering and thirsting after righteousness [the Will of God]. Because these
people refuse to speak or move apart from the revelation knowledge abiding in
their heart, one accord and true unity of the Spirit manifest spontaneously in
their midst.
THERE WILL BE NO ENEMY IN THE CAMP
Related Scriptures: Ephesians
4:11-16; Acts 2:42-47; Acts 5:12; Joel 2:1-11;
SECTION SEVEN
ANOTHER FRUIT OF THE "INNER CHAMBER" IS
SUPERNATURAL REST
...."If because of
the sabbath, you turn your foot from doing your own pleasure on My holy day,
and call the sabbath a delight, the holy day of the Lord honorable, and shall
honor it, desisting from your own ways, from seeking your own pleasure, and
speaking your own word, then you will take delight in the Lord, and I will make
you ride on the heights of the earth [see Ephesians 1:20]; and I will feed you
with the heritage of Jacob your father, for the mouth of the Lord has
spoken"....
Isaiah 58:13-14 NASB
Another fruit of the "inner
chamber" is supernatural rest - and the essence of all true rest is trust
in God. The Father is "simplifying" things for us in this hour
through the absolute truth that is coming forth from the Throne Room. Our task
is to be ready to receive, and to enter into the place of rest - "knowing"
that He is faithful in ALL things. The Fathers deepest heart-desire is for us
to come to the place wherein we "trust" Him entirely. The Devils
scheme from the time of ones birth is to cause them to come into a
"mistrust" of God - thus keeping them from entering into the place of
intimate fellowship in the "inner chamber" with Him. This is because
dwelling [abiding] in the presence of the Father and His Word is the key to
receiving the "fullness" of all that the Father has for us -
including our absolute authority, in Christ. It is also the key to a divine
[and perfect] empowerment in ALL things! The Father has a "fool
proof" plan for the Glorious Church but if one does not love Him with
their "whole heart" in this final hour THEN they are going to miss
"their" perfect part in it. Again, revelation is the key for one to
be found abiding in perfect obedience, and the key to one "guarding"
their heart with "all" diligence, acknowledging God in
"all" of our ways - and, thus, coming to the place of "abiding"
in "revelation knowledge" - is the inner chamber.
THE FORCE OF FAITH - WORKING FROM THE POSITION OF AN
ABIDING LOVE - IS THE IMPETUS AND EMPOWERMENT IN ALL TRUE KINGDOM-SERVICE
6 NECESSARY REVELATIONS TO BE GAINED IN THE
"INNER CHAMBER"
1. Every child of God must continually
seek to come to the place wherein they have a revelation of each and every
aspect of the glorious Covenant they have with the Father, in Christ.
2. Gaining and maintaining a deep revelation of
the precious Blood of Jesus - and its powerful effects - is the key to
"consistent" fellowship in the "inner chamber"
3. As one enters into the fullness of their
salvation [inheritance] in Christ in this Third Day they are going to have to
be "continually" clothed and empowered by the precious Blood of Jesus
- in order to both enter into, and carry out, the fullness of their destiny, in
Christ.
4. All true kingdom work is predicated upon one
being solely in [doing nothing apart from] Christ and, therefore, one must have
an "abiding" revelation burning within their heart that THEY ARE
"the righteousness of God, in Christ Jesus".
5. If we have the deep assurance in our heart
[through revelation] that we are in the center of the Father's will and purpose
in any given moment then it is certain that we shall be found standing
[overcoming] in all things. The inner chamber is the key.
6. Every child of God needs to know and
understand what it is to be loved by the Father. Having a revelation of the
Father's perfect love and character is the catalyst to one "abiding"
in an absolute trust and faith in Him.

13-29, Isaiah 35:8-10; Psalm 25:12-14; 1 John 1:9; 1 Corinthians 1:30; 2

Let us hear the words of the Father:
THE KEY TO THE LIFE OF PERFECT OBEDIENCE IS THE
"INNER CHAMBER"

BE PREPARED TO BE CONFRONTED AND TESTED BY THE FIRE OF
MY SPIRIT
1 Corinthians 3:12-15 Now if anyone builds on this foundation with gold,
silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw, each one's work will become clear;
for the Day will declare it, because it will be revealed by fire; and the fire
will test each one's work, of what sort it is. If anyone's work which he has
built on it endures, he will receive a reward. If anyone's work is burned, he
will suffer loss; but he himself will be saved, yet so as through fire.
RISE UP AND REJOICE IN A NEW BEGINNING
Psalm 146:5-10 Happy is he who has the God of Jacob for his help,
whose hope is in the LORD his God, Who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all
that is in them; Who keeps truth forever, Who executes justice for the
oppressed, Who gives food to the hungry. The LORD gives freedom to the
prisoners. The LORD opens the eyes of the blind; the LORD raises those who are
bowed down; the LORD loves the righteous. The LORD watches over the strangers;
He relieves the fatherless and widow; but the way of the wicked He turns upside
down. The LORD shall reign forever-- Your God, O Zion, to all generations.
Praise the LORD!
THIS IS A TIME OF RESTORATION, CONSERVATION, OF
PRESERVATION AND OF GATHERING
1 Corinthians 10:13 No temptation has overtaken you except such as
is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted
beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of
escape, that you may be able to bear it.
YOU WILL NOW BEGIN TO SEE THE UNVEILING OF A NEW ORDER
IN MY KINGDOM
Ephesians 5:25 -27 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the
church and gave Himself for her, that He might sanctify and cleanse her with
the washing of water by the word, that He might present her to Himself a
glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she
should be holy and without blemish.
YOU MUST ALIGN YOUR WILL WITH MINE, SAYS THE LORD,
BY ASKING IN FAITH FOR DIVINE GUIDANCE AND THEN BY YIELDING TO MY DIRECTION

when you run, you will not stumble.
