SEVEN THINGS GOD WANTS YOU TO KNOW:
INTRODUCTION: This book is about the knowledge of God the Father,
the Lord
Jesus Christ) the manifestation of the sons of God. The message of this
booklet will hold special meaning for those, whose hearts are filled with
expectation and of the appearing of Christ. The seven principles overview
the entire Bible and speak to many of the precious things that I have
been
able to receive from Lord overtime. It is only through knowing Jesus
Christ
and having his ministry in my life that I am able to approach these
mighty
subjects. I sense His anointing this time to share on: "seven
things God wants you to know."
Seven things to illuminate enlarge the understanding of His Word, to
reveal new dynamic place of fellowship and experience in the Holy
Ghost.
Many of the schools that teach about prophesy know very little when it
comes to the seasons when God's prophetic words about to be fulfilled.
Most trying to determine when, what, and where the coming of the Lord
will be or at least new move of God will occur, usually involve? A
system
of facts and number, collaborate theories pointing to some future day
or time, some event will occur. The most famous of these types of
predictions
occurred in the 1840's. It was at that time a great spiritual movement
was torn in America based upon the prediction that the Lord would
return
on a specific date and time. Twice the predicted return of the Lord was
announced and twice the day came and went without any thing occurring
at all. The calculations and study of the prophet timeline that went
into
those predictions was elaborate and precise. I know was no lack of
sincerity
or desire. However, there was a lack of revelation knowledge.
The same could be said of the leaders and priests in Israel at the time
when Jesus appeared the first time. They understood the scriptures
taught
Messiah would come. When they saw who it was, yet did not believe it
was
him. They liked it better when He was just a prophecy to come and not
present truth. Much of what is already revealed from heaven remains a
distant future hope for many in Christendom today. Because so much
teaching
surrounds dates, years and computations, the presence of the Holy
Spirit
working and speak today in the earth is put further and further away
from
the heart and mind of life. Time creates distance and separation
To understand this, when you think of time you also think of distance.
Time can be measured by how long it takes to get from point a to point
b. If I say a thousand miles or three miles you immediately sense the
vast difference between those two distances. If I lived only three
miles
from you and said hop in your car and come over" you might find it
fairly easy to accomplish. However, if I lived three thousand miles
away
the time to get there and back, would feel much longer. When we are
waiting for
events to shape our faith and searching the timeline for where and when
things will happen, it very often
pushes their reality from us and creates a distance, seperation or
space
between where you are and where the word of God is.
SIGN FROM HEAVEN:
I also with the Sadducees
came,
and tempting I see them a sign from heaven.
...and Sadducees came to Jesus and said shew us a miracle the Pharisees
were strict observers of the Torah, They I God. Here they sought a sign
from heaven and he from heaven before their very eyes. They were I
could
not see the times or fulfillment. Is it possible; ling something about
the kingdom of God because of Bason?
be foul weather to day: for the sky is red and lowering the face of the
sky; but can ye not discern the
Ito them, When it is evening, ye say, It will be fair
Do you know what is the Present truth? What is God by lie today and
now?
Most Christians have been I will return one day. But please remember
that
Israels Messiah would come. Once again as we approach we are
looking
for a sign from heaven. Something to engage of the word is applied by
natural I picture is made of what must be understood I are mature must
bear the responsibility to know how to prepare and what He is expecting
from us.
Will appear in the sky and
every eye will see him, the ordinary to show them the way. Like those
old religionist, they seek a sign out of heaven. But the Holy Spirit
came
out of the earth and is present in the earth today and now. The Holy
Spirit
is not a doctrine about himself. He is the person that brings the
reality
of God's presence in Christ to our lives. What is present and ready to
be revealed who cannot discern the signs and season.
An example of this is seen
when Jesus came to the tomb of Lazarus His friend. Martha came running
to Him saying if only you had been here maybe Lazarus would not have
died.
Jesus said your brother will rise again. John 11:23-24
Jesus saith unto her,
Thy brother shall rise again. Martha saith unto him, I know that he
shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day.
Martha could only see into
the hope of the future when that day would come. All the prophets of
Israel
spoke and prophesied in terms of that day to come. But now the day
(Christ)
had arrived. That time of the future creates distance from what is
present
today and Now. Martha could not see the presence of the Lord there that
day to perform His great act.
TIME= AGE= PERCEPTION
Galatians 4:3 Even so
we, when
we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world:
Spiritual
life is parallel. As long as we remain childish in our thinking about
God's plan our relationship prohibits knowing the deeper things of the
Spirit. When we are children, our age determines the level of freedom
that we have. How much liberty to come and go or how much
responsibility
I am trusted with is related to how mature I am. Very little is
expected
of us when we are infants and young children; but when we are of teen
years we add more substance to the lives of our children. This is to
prepare
them to be self-sustaining and productive adults in society. When we
grow
up to young adulthood our level of responsibility increases also. In
the
same way our relationship with God is directly linked with the season
our walk is in with God. The key to prophesy is not time. God has not
subjected us to time. To mimic in a sense something the Lord said about
the Sabbath day. Time was made for man, not man for time. Time is a
tool
for God's process, but it does not limit His purpose through us.
Nothing
can do that except our perception of the truth in Christ.
Galatians 4:9 But
now, after
that ye have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn ye again
to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto ye desire again to be in
bondage? 10 Ye observe days, and months, and times, and years. Time is
not the factor any longer. God has subjected our lives unto Christ and
growing up. Maturing becoming fruitful and bringing forth some a thirty
fold, others sixty fold and yet still others one hundred fold
fruitfulness
in Christ. Beloved now we are the sons of God. It does not yet appear.
Time is not going to make it appear. Christ will appear in us and
through
us when we have put on Christ. The creation awaits the manifestation of
the sons of God. Notice the verse quoted did not specify which
denomination.
