And He said to them, Assuredly, I say to you that there are some standing here who will not taste death till they see the kingdom of God present with power…… Now after six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John and led them up on a high mountain apart themselves; and He was transfigured before them. His clothes became shining, exceedlingly white, like snow, such as no launderer on earth can whiten them, ( Mark 9:1-3).
I have seen the consummation of all perfection. Your commandment is exceedlingly broad, ( Psalm 119:96).
Revelation chapter 4:1, After these things, I looked and behold, a door standing open in heaven. And the first voice which I heard was like a trumpet speaking with me, saying, Come up here and I will show you things which must take place after this.
The transfiguration up on the mount for us to see Him as He is and as we are in Him will be the consummation of the age- for it will be the seventh day…..Why did the Holy Spirit say- After six days……….Well, after six days come the seventh. He was showing us a progression of the purposes of God to come…… The Holy Spirit was present in prophecy through our Lord…… Jesus Christ is the Spirit of Prophecy as written.
We come, Lord, until the day we will see the Son shining as the sun. We are then found as bright as the new fallen snow in the embrace of our God…. Oh God we come, we come. Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is. And everyone who has this hope in Him purifies himself, just as He is pure,( 1 John 3:2-3).
Our God gave us His only Begotten Son, Jesus Christ, to be sacrificed on the altar or mount of God……. The veil was torn so we may enter in to the Holies of All…… We come Lord, we come. We first enter into His Cross or His altar to be cleansed by the Blood of the Lamb of God. We die there and arise as a born again child of God…… But we come…… We enter in to His place that He has prepared for us today…… The mount of God, the Holiest of All…..beloved, we can enter in……. We may lift up our voice to our God in prayer and He hears and answers us……. Do we believe this?
When someone walks into the room that you have prepared a banquet for……and they are talking to you …… Do you not answer? Our God has planned this day, this age, from before the foundation of the world…….He answers. He wants us to meet with Him…… There have been a lot of meetings and agendas of the Christian people……. Have they availed? Going into our prayer closet….. Where no one sees and no one but God gets the glory…………. May this be our strategy of this day and hour.
As the Lord spoke: you shall see the Kingdom of God in power – was He referring to that time alone or for the age of today? I believe the power is referring to the presence of the Holy Spirit- TODAY…… The Most Powerful outstretched arm of God to man is revealed in the death and burial and resurrection of our Lord Jesus CHrist. He rose to a new life and was here to bestow the Promise of the Father, His Holy Spirit……upon and in us who believe.
The Spirit of Truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you will know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you, ( John 14:17).
Peter in prayer—- God gave him the key to open heaven to the Gentiles…… Paul and Silas prayed and brought about an earthquake in God’s reply in a jail cell……….. Let us be with Him…… Let us shut-up our mouths….. Let us listen…….. Then let us pray as He wills.
The incense rising symbolizes our prayer today….. This incense was prepared and placed in and before the Testimony in the Tabernacle….. But first came the washing in the laver and then the altar and then the incense. Our prayers were kept in a vial until the fulfillment of time, the Lord came to us, Emmanuel. There is so much for us to thank God and glorify our Lord. He has opened the heavens. We know have an open heaven……… To the unbelievable made believable we are know sitting in the heavenlies, yes even us! What mercy and grace has been bestowed on us….. We do not need another to break open the heaven…… It has been done – now and forever. Let alone there is no one among us except Jesus Christ who is qualified……… No not one.
We now may pray according to His will….. We will be heard and answered…… Please, we should know His will, but more important, we must speak our prayers as we are talking to Him and He is there present on His throne answering us….. This is the faith that our Lord is seeking…… It is written often places to pray and not to lose heart…… We won’t lose heart if we pray in faith….. Faith comes by the cleansing our hearts of the dust of the world off of us by “eating ” His Word …… We must read and study the Word of God and our knowledge, met with the illumination of the Holy Spirit, will quicken our faith to believe the Lord for the unbelievable….. And then we bring all others with us…… How awesome the Life that He has given us in Him and all that is now available to live and breath. There is always new ground in our Lord that by our faith we are paving the way for the next generation……….to live in the revealed knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ.
We cleanse ourselves from the daily dust of the world. Then we realize the greatness of the Lord’s cross and sacrifice given to us and we cry out in thanksgiving and awe of our God’s great Love that we have been given by our Lord. Then we petition and enter in to prayer or talking or communion, ( which ever word you prefer) with our God by His Spirit…… He talks back and give us our answers…… We rule in the Lord’s grace and mercy for His kingdom’s expansion….. We are about our Father’s business…..
Forever, O Lord, Your word is settled in heaven, Your faithfulness endures to all generations; You established the earth, and it abides. They continue this day according to Your ordinances, for all are Your servants( 119:89-91).
In our day and age, to be still and quiet before the Lord and be with Him is not viewed as an exalted position by most of the church . It is more highly thought of to be out there preaching and evangelizing…… Which, of course, is needed……. But the most important task at hand today, is to be before the Lord – Gather around His throne to hear and wait… for the okay to then do……. If He is behind us in our doing, it will be fruitful and full of His glory.
Today is the day to hear the Spirit in such a time as this and trust the Lord for the opportune time for the doing…… He wants our attention and it may not please others. When we care more about His hand upon us than others, He knows He can trust us with His secrets…… Then all things falls into place as only His hand can do as we walk with Him as one…….. Let us wait upon our God at His throne…. This is a grand opportunity that He has chosen us for…… especially at this time….. We need to turn off the world and come up to Him and hear.
How sweet are Your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth! Through Your precepts I get understanding; therefore I hate every false way, Your Word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path, ( Psalms 119:103-105).
The Lord prepared a meal for the disciples off shore…… He has prepared a meal for us today- Himself. Let us get our fill and our over abundance in Him…. There is no limit to our delight. We come to His mount in thanksgiving for His sacrifice and His Spirit enjoying and devouring His Word. We then repeat His heart or His Word back to Him out unto over the earth so the nations will be healed. As well as our brother and sisters in other lands are lifted up in Him as well as soon to be believers find their home in Him…….. This is a very special place that has been provided in the plan of God before the foundation of the world for us, beloved, even us. Let us come up to the mount….. Let us gather around His throne and delight His heart and pray and speak out His desires upon the hearts of the nations today.
We must know and be reminded by the Truth of God written in the Word of God. We shall be light and salt as we know the Word as it is etched in our hearts and minds…… His Word will flow out of the abundance of our heart……. The world needs heavenly minded people that are filled with the Holy Spirit. We speak the Word of God in all diligence…
As we pray, we are illuminated by His Spirit of the truth….. Beloved, while I was very diligent to write to you concerning our common salvation, I found it necessary to write to you exhorting you to contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints.
For certain men have crept in unnoticed, who long ago were marked out for this condemnation, ungodly men, who turn the grace of our God into lewdness and deny the only Lord God and our Lord Jesus Christ.
But I want to remind you, though you once knew this, that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed those who did not believe……(Jude 1:3-5). ( READ ALL OF JUDE!!!!).
In the delay of Moses coming off the mountain in Exodus 32, the Israelites started to turn to other gods because they did not have their heart mixed with faith as written in Hebrews….. We have the Word of God before us and His Spirit within us. We should be abounding in our faith the validity of the Word of God and stand strong….. Strong in the receiving of the answers of our prayers and walk in thanking heaven is here upon this earth today. Remember, Stephen through persecution saw the Lord standing in His throne…. Heaven is with us today….. or we are in heaven……
We are also warned of the times we are in.. …. In the days that Moses was detained on the Mountain of the Lord, Moses came down to calf worshiping and the Lord called the people corrupting themselves. The same day 3000 fell and the Lord said that their name would be blotted out from the His book….. This warning is also for the church too….. Remember the letter to the Sardis church….. or all churches as scriptures state in chapter three…….in the Book of Revelation.
The hearts may grow weary waiting upon the return of the Lord, however, in our eyes of faith we must know He is here with us….. Not as in the end of the age, but it does not matter, if we really have eyes of our faith, we have the intimate relationship with Him NOW. He told us often…… to pray and not lose heart. When we pray, we receive our answers….. He speaks to us and shows us His purpose for the day at hand and strengthens us…..He longs to walk with us…… Do we long to walk with Him or our facebook, iphones, etc….Who are we walking with? Where are we sitting as we pray?
If you question God’s response to our prayer, I suggest you read through John 14-17 and also the Book of 1 John.
There is a huge difference between the days of Moses and ours, we have the Spirit of God within us as our Guide….. The Spirit of God which always points us to the cross of Jesus Christ. We are hidden in Christ with God…… But the biggest difference is we are NOW seated in the heavenly places…… There is no one left down at the bottom of the Mountain of the Lord, waiting for a leader or someone to come down from meeting with God……We are all included in being with the Lord in His Kingdom because of our belief in our Savior in the sacrifice of His death on the cross and the ascending into the heavenlies bestowing upon us His Spirit, the Holy Spirit. Yes, we are given leaders, however, we must hear from God first and then they shall confirm His way to us……….We must not put men in the place of God or as what happened to the people in Israel, they did not adhere to the Words of God spoken a mere forty days before………..
So if we are found lax or not watching, shame on us! We do not want to be caught not adjusting to the Lord. Nor be found lax in faith. We must receive His grace and mercy for such a time as this. Then we will be heavenly minded to bring the needed Food of Life to the people. If we fall away, it is our fault.
He is with us and we are with Him always, if we believe…..The communion with the Lord to speak and be spoken to by Him at any time at any place is for us today……. We need to just do it. Turn off the idols. Repent. Turn on His Word and His Spirit will quicken us to Him with our sincerity of seeking Him.
Remember, the Word spoken in Chronicles said for His people to turn from their wicked ways and repent pray and then He would heal the land……. Not the world to repent, but His straying people from Him.
We should be reminded of the blotting our names out from the Lamb’s Book of Life as written in the letter to the Sardis church in chapter 3 of the Book of Revelation…..And to the angel of the church of Sardis writes, These things says He who has the seven Spirits of God and the seven stars: I know your works that you have a name that you are alive, but you are dead. Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die, for I have not found your works perfect before God. Remember therefore how you have received and heard; hold fast and repent. Therefore if you will not watch, I will come upon you as a thief, and you will not know what hour I will come upon you. You have a few names even in Sardis who have not defiled their garments; and they shall walk with Me in white, for they are worthy. He who overcomes shall be clothed in white garments; and I will not blot out their name from the Book of Life; but I will confess his name before My Father and His angels. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches, ( Revelation 3:1-6).
The faith in God and the knowledge of His will and the presence of His Spirit within us is indestructible……….. Indestructible….. The power of God within us…… ….. as He is so are we. We are His body and we speak as the head…… In three days I shall arise……. We are with Him.
Do not fear but take the land before us in the faith of His power and His Truth. He goes before us and has our rear guard…… We are warned over and over again about the reality of God and His warnings of judgment……. He bids no one to perish.
We must read and reread and study and study again these scriptures so we have a deposit from which the Holy Spirit can draw from to remind us of the Truth of the Love of God for us as written: Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor have entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those who love Him. But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God. For what man knows the things of a man except his spirit of the man which is in him? Even so no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God. Now we have received , not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things that have been freely given to us by God, ( 1 Corinthians 2:9-12).
Now it shall come to us in the latter days that the mountain of the Lord’s house shall be established on the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and peoples shall flow to it. Many nations shall come and say, Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob; He will teach us His ways, and we shall walk in His paths. For out of Zion the law shall go forth, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem. …… ( Micah 4:1-2).
He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes I will give to eat from the tree of life, which is in the midst of the Paradise of God, ( Revelation 2:7).
He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches, He who overcomes shall not be hurt by the second death, ( Revelation 2:11).
He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes I will give some of the hidden manna to eat. And I will give him a white stone, and on the stone a new name written which no one knows except him who receives it, ( Revelation 2: 17).
Now to you I say, and to the rest of Thyatira, as many as do not have this doctrine, who have not known the depths of Satan, as they say, I will put on you no other burden, but hold fast what you have until I come. And he who overcomes, and keeps My works until the end, to him I will give power over the nations- He shall rule them with a rod of iron; they shall be dashed to pieces like the potter’s vessels- as I also have received from My Father; and I will give him the morning star. He who has an ear to hear, let him hear what the Spirit is saying to the churches, ( Revelation 2:26-29).
He who overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the temple of My God, and he shall go out no more, I write on him the name of My God, the name of the city of My God, the New Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven from My God. And I write on him My new name. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches, ( Revelation 3:12-13).
To him who overcomes I will grant to sit with Me on My throne, as I also have overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches, ( Revelation 3:21-22).
He has given us all things to pertain to life and godliness. His grace is sufficient and our faith will succor all His Words within our heart until the day of the full revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ….. He is here to listen and answer as we are seated before Him…… Faith is the way to abide with and in our King and we live knowing heaven reigns on this earth.
In Your Blood shed for me, You have washed me white as the new fallen snow.
In Your Truth, You have given me the solid rock in which I stand.
In Your cross, You have given me redemption to belong to only You.
In Your Tabernacle, You have given me the eternal place where I dwell.
In Your Sovereignty, You have given me the trust to know all things work out for good.
In You and in only You, do I live and breath and have my dwelling.
O Mighty One! My God! You have lavished me with Your kindness and mercy.
Where can I go but cling and bind myself in You for all my days and nights,
Until I awake in the likeness of My King, My God! My Hero!
Thank You for all my years in Your abiding power!
Selah!
My Children,
There are many voices sounding today. My Spirit with and in you will point the Way and keep you in all Truth. Know His voice speaking within. Know My whisper. Have I not spoken with you, if two do not agree how then can they walk together.
I AM the God who is always. I AM the God who is now. I AM the God who shall ever be. Again, as I AM has spoken, I AM not far from each of you, even closer than your breath. You do not need to go up to obtain My eye. Nor will you find I AM in the depths of the earth. Yeah, in your darkened nights, I AM. I AM always with you. By your faith, you shall be where I AM sees. By your abiding, all things will be made smooth in your path and for others…. In your walk in I AM, your darkness will be made light. All things will be revealed.
I AM instructs you to behold Wisdom. Heavenly fruit will be within the ones that meditate on My Word. When the wind and the rain come, your eyes will behold the mighty tree of many fruits that takes all and still remains. This is for all who come to I AM. Your heart that seeks after I AM. My eye never rests away from my little ones. I AM keeps them in My eye and the Word of My power. When the waves of deception comes to swallow them, alas, see they are remaining in My hand. No one will ever snatch them away from Me.
As My beloved friend, knew the way of My Spirit upon the earth……. He was knocked down, but he arose in My power……. He was smitten, but grew in My might. He was locked away and forgotten, and is still feeding many today of My Words through His obedience. Not all that is portrayed in front of your eyes is of I AM or His way that are found, today, in His people….. I AM in enmity with this world and its dark ways. I AM has made the way to escape the corruption of this world….. Did I AM not say, to come out from among them and be Mine? Why do you linger between the two ways, even today? The deception from the evil one allowing the two roads to be walked as one will only lead to one harvest……Remember, what way seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death.
I AM the Door. I AM the Way. I AM the Life of the World. I AM the Desire of the nations. I AM the Creator of all.
I AM has given the keys to the Kingdom of God before you……. Do you leave them unattended? I AM has called you up………You do not need to climb up…… I AM has made the Way…… I AM the Way. When I AM beholds the earth, will I AM find the faith that I AM seeks?
I AM is here where I AM has always been. I AM calls you to be where I AM, even today…..I AM the Ancient of Days….. Alas, I AM is not changing. Come into behold My image as if in a mirror ……… in the secret place.
I AM asks you, even today, who do you say I AM? Who is I AM to you? Come behold I AM as in a mirror. Then heaven will be where you are indeed. Come and see all things are possible for those who believe. Then revealed before your heart is the Truth of your faith in who do you say I AM?
Come to Me all who are needing more than you are living in this world. Come to Me all who want My refreshing ointment upon you. Come to Me all who want to meet their Maker and Creator of all……. Come and seek the One who holds your days in My hands.
Come and find what you never knew you needed before I AM. Come and receive the Love that will never leave you or fail you….. Come to Me…… My outstretched arms long to embrace and comfort you…….Do not turn away . There is nothing left undone against I AM that has not been covered and washed away in your lives and others in My blood….. I AM greater than all. My love is greater than all your sins, yeah, than the whole of creation…… I AM greater…..So come and meet the Love of your life, the Great I AM. The Lover who knew you before the world was created. You were found in Me. Come back to Me. My Door is open and My arms are outstretched. Come and take My forgiveness and see Your Creator’s smile…… You are My children, come Home.
SELAH!
