JANUARY 16TH
PERFECT FELLOWSHIP - TRUE PRAYER
Words of prophecy:
*
Persevere as never before in all things. Be diligent in prayer - and in the
ministry of My Word.
* Fear not, My beloved ones, for I am about
to bless you in a way you could never have comprehended in your own
understanding. Hold fast, for I am with you always. Be diligent in prayer and
in the hearing of My Word - for you shall not wait much longer for the blessing
to arrive. I take great pleasure in seeing My children walk in faith despite
overwhelming circumstances - placing My Word above all else! And truly I say to
you, the world will see those of My children who do so - for I shall exalt them
to a degree whereby all shall see clearly that it is My hand which is upon
them. Therefore, My beloved one, having done everything to stand firm - stand
firm!
Acts 6:4 The Amplified Translation
Perfect fellowship is
defined as time spent in fellowship with the Father and His Word - on His terms
- in the "inner chamber". True [accurate and unceasing] [1 Thessalonians 5:17] prayer is simply the perfect
result of that perfect fellowship with God. Because intimacy with the Father
[and His Word] [John 14:21,23] is the key to
the fullness of transition concerning one's entrance into true "rest"
[Isaiah 58:13-14] and the Kingdom. The onus is
on every last Christian walking the face of this earth to not only enter into
that intimate fellowship with the Father and His Word, but also to do it on His
terms - and on His terms alone! If the child of God will begin to consistently
enter into that place of perfect fellowship in this hour - again, on "His
terms" [by a revelation from the Holy Spirit] - THEN they shall
immediately be catapulted [elevated] into a place spiritually speaking that
they never thought possible this side of Heaven. If one is not found
fellowshipping with the Father and His Word on "His" terms then they
will not come to that place of "knowing" God in His absoluteness.
"UNLESS ONE'S HEART IS PURE AND UNLESS ONE'S HEART
IS SEEKING THE FATHER AND HIS WORD DILIGENTLY THEN THAT ONE IS NOT GOING TO
UNDERSTAND THE KINGDOM AND ITS WAYS"
It is only from a
revelation of God's "absoluteness" that we begin to see clearly the
absoluteness of the Scriptures. Our God is a God Who says what He means and
means what He says, and by the Spirit of wisdom and revelation we are THEN able
to understand what He is saying with pin-point accuracy - according to His most
holy purpose, at ALL times. Unless one's heart is pure, and unless one's heart
is seeking the Father and His Word diligently, then that one is not going to
understand the Kingdom and its ways and, thus they will remain
"attached" to the world and its ways [the world's ways are pride,
selfishness, self-focus, self-exaltation, self-effort, rebellion and fear].
Guarding one's heart with ALL diligence [Proverbs
4:23] and, thus, coming into the place wherein one is acknowledging God
in ALL of their ways [Proverbs 3:5-6] is the
key to one entering into the place of "abiding" in love - and walking
by "revelation" continually. It is a time for "action" in
the midst of all those who truly love God, and that action [flurry of godly
activity] is going to be the result of a total and absolute empowerment by the
Holy Spirit. This place of perfect empowerment is the starting point for all
those desiring to partake of the "fullness" of the end-time plan of
the Father for the raising up of a Glorious Church
[Ephesians 5:27].
"WE MUST BE A PEOPLE WHO ARE A BELIEVING PEOPLE -
A PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT INFLUENCED OR MOVED (CONTROLLED) IN ANY WAY BY SENSE
KNOWLEDGE"
Because it
is the "fullness of time", and because the Father is revealing the
Truth [Jesus] in "His" absoluteness we shall no longer be a
Church that views God in a "spirit of partiality". We are going to be
a holy Church that will cause [through an abiding faith, love and obedience]
the manifestation of the fullness of the Father's will to come forth in
everything that we say and do - wherever we are led. We shall no longer be a
church that sits around talking about the things to come or simply
"hoping" that a prophecy will come to pass. In these days, we must be
a people who are a believing people - a people who are not influenced or
"moved" [controlled] in ANY way by "sense knowledge"
[relying on the five physical senses as our final authority], a people who
continually call those things that do not yet exist into existence - according
to the Father's highest purpose [Romans 4:17].
Again, we need to be a people who are found diligently "maintaining"
a revelation of God's Word - abiding in an absolute faith - working through a
perfect love, manifesting in a perfect obedience and, THEN [as this
"Kingdom cycle" is firmly established in the life of the believer]
the entire work and plan of God in this last hour will accelerate [in great
power and Glory] to a continually greater degree right to the end of the age.
