THE LIFE OF FAITH AND THE GLORIOUS CHURCH - 2009
january 22nd
IN THIS MOST CRITICAL HOUR THE REVEALED KNOWLEDGE OF THE TRUTH
[WORD] WILL BE THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ABSOLUTE VICTORY AND OVERCOMING IN ALL
THINGS AND TOTAL DEFEAT AND FAILURE!
Hebrews 4:12 NASB
Ephesians 1:16-17 NASB
One MUST have revelation
knowledge in order to "fix" their faith [trust] perfectly in the
Father and His Word. It is only from this position of an "abiding"
trust [faith] that one is able to discern between that which is the truth and that
which is a lie [that which is righteous and that which is unrighteous] - and it
is certain that in this most critical hour the "revealed knowledge"
of the Truth will be the difference between absolute victory and overcoming in
all things - and total defeat and failure! It is also this constant exercising
of faith [love and obedience] that allows the Holy Spirit to remove ALL ground
of fear, worry and unbelief from within us. As we enter into this final hour we
must have a deep revelation in our spirit of the fact that the Father desires
each one of His children to walk completely free from fear. As one is faithful
to meditate on the various scriptures concerning our perfect liberty in Christ
they shall see clearly what the Word of God says about this, and come to
understand to a deeper degree the glorious provision which He has made for us
to be free from fear - in order that we might be filled with His faith and His
love [nature].
ANY SELFISHNESS [FEAR, PRIDE, REBELLION] THAT WE CHOOSE TO RETAIN
WILL SURELY PRECLUDE THE EXERCISING OF FAITH IN GOD'S WORD!
Any selfishness [fear,
pride, rebellion] that we choose to "maintain" will
"surely" preclude the exercising of faith in God's Word! Since we
know that Satan is only able to work through the ground of selfishness
[self-desire - pride] and fear within us we must diligently apply ourselves to
the Word of God - day in and day out. For when we are exercising
"faith" in ourselves, we cause the force of fear to put into action
the law of sin and death - in us and around us. On the other hand, as we seek
to live only for the carrying out of the Father's will - at all cost to
ourselves - we, through, that deep and absolute dependence upon His Word, shall
continually release the force of faith and, thus, cause the law of the Spirit
of life in Christ Jesus to work within us and around us - at ALL times.
