Power of Forgiveness
April 8, 2010

"To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins."(Acts 26:18)

All too often we consider forgiveness a mysterious and spiritual transaction that, once accomplished, is a past event that has little to do with our subsequent lives.

It is certainly true that there is a historical point in our earthly lives where the forgiveness of Christ was granted--even though He was "slain from the foundation of the world" (Revelation 13:.

Christ has subdued, cleansed, and forgotten our sins: "Who is a God like unto thee, that pardoneth iniquity?, he will subdue our iniquities; and thou wilt cast all their sins into the depths of the sea" (Micah 7:18-19). "I, even I, am he that blotteth out thy transgressions for mine own sake, and will not remember thy sins" (Isaiah 43:25). "I have blotted out, as a thick cloud, thy transgressions, and, as a cloud, thy sins" (Isaiah 44:22).

Christ has replaced our sins with His holiness: "Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new…. For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him" (2 Corinthians 5:17, 21).

Christ has given us victory over sin: Since all of the above (and more) is true and active in the lives of all believers, there should be an obvious exhilaration that enables us to confidently stand against whatever "fiery darts" the enemy may throw at us. We are clearly told that "sin shall not have dominion over |us|" (Romans 6:14). And since Jesus already dealt with the "offence" of sin on the cross, we can "reign in life" by Him (Romans 5:17).

+       In the same way that "mountain climbing" in the natural realm is not an easy task, and takes much perseverance, courage, strength and precision, neither is it an easy task for one to "forerun" [lead My children into the fullness of their inheritance]. For it also takes much perseverance, courage, strength and precision [pin-point accuracy] and, in the process, one must face many obstacles - not the least of which is resisting the continual attempts by Satan through demonic interference [hindering spirits and the spirits of disheartenment] tomove them off course. In this most glorious hour, My "forerunners" shall take their rightful place in the midst of all those who truly love Me, and the spontaneous fruit of this new postioning shall be that many other forerunners are raised up who will, then, be sent forth in the power of My Spirit - in order that the "sheep" are no longer led by the "blind" in the midst of My people. For, in these days, I am establishing My true delegated authorities in such a way that they will be a "shining beacon" [in the same way as a lighthouse is to those who are lost in a storm] to all those who are seeking absolute Truth and, at the same time, holy vessels of an unyielding [unrelenting] and all-consuming "fire" [thorn] to all those in their path who hold to [maintain] anything "in My Name" that, in reality, is apart from Christ. Blessed are those who hunger and thirst after righteousness in this hour [those who seek to be righteously motivated in all things] for it is certain that they will have the deepest desires of their heart fulfilled in ways that will continually thrill their heart - both in this age and in the ages [dispensations] to come!

"blind" - unable to see; unwilling or unable to perceive or understand; lacking all consciousness or awareness [of spiritual things];

        ., "So it came about on the third day, when it was morning, that there were thunder and lightning flashes and a thick cloud upon the mountain and a very loud trumpet sound, so that all the people who were in the camp trembled. And Moses brought the people out of the camp to meet God, and they stood at the foot of the mountain. Now Mount Sinai was all in smoke because the LORD descended upon it in fire; and its smoke ascended like the smoke of a furnace, and the whole mountain quaked violently. When the sound of the trumpet grew louder and louder, Moses spoke and God answered him with thunder. The LORD came down on Mount Sinai, to the top of the mountain; and the LORD called Moses to the top of the mountain, and Moses went up",  Exodus 19:16-20 NASB

        , "How blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope [and trust] is in the LORD his God, Who made heaven and earth, the sea and all that is in them; Who keeps faith forever; Who executes justice for the oppressed; Who gives food to the hungry. The LORD sets the prisoners free. The LORD opens the eyes of the blind; The LORD raises up those who are bowed down; The LORD loves the righteous",  Psalms 146:5-8 NASB

Son of God
April 9, 2010

"|God| hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds."(Hebrews 1:2)

The unique divine Sonship of Jesus Christ is emphasized here in Hebrews 1. The above text, for example, introduces the Son as the Creator, then as the revealing Word, and finally as the appointed heir of all things.

This chapter also demonstrates that God's Son was recognized even in the Old Testament. Verse 5 quotes Psalm 2:7: "Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee," and 1 Chronicles 17:13: "I will be his father, and he shall be my son." That this Son is none other than God Himself is confirmed in verse 8, quoting Psalm 45:6: "Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever." That He is the Creator is asserted in verse 10 referring to Psalm 102:25: "Of old hast thou laid the foundation of the earth." That He is now at God's own throne is stressed in verse 13, citing Psalm 110:1: "Sit on my right hand." Thus, He is to be worshipped as God. "Let all the angels of God worship him" (verse 6, taken from Psalm 97:7).

Furthermore, Hebrews 1 notes a manifold description of the meaning of the divine Sonship. He is Son of God by eternal generation, as the "brightness |or 'out-radiating'| of his glory, and the express image of his person" (v. 3). He is Son of God by miraculous conception (v. 5), also quoted in Acts 13:33 (note Romans 1:4) as referring to His Sonship by bodily resurrection. Verse 6 refers to the divine proclamation of the Sonship (also Matthew 3:17; 17:5). Verses 8 and 9 stress the testimony of His uniquely holy nature. "Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity." Finally, as the Son, He is promised universal inheritance from His Father (vv. 9, 13). From eternity to eternity, Jesus Christ is God's only begotten Son! And yet God "gave his only begotten Son" that we might have everlasting life! (John 3:16). HMM

HEAR DIRECTLY FROM ME

I have assignments for each of My children in this day.
You are uniquely and specifically designed and qualified by Me to fulfill your calling.
Now is the time for you to listen and hear Me speak My plans for you into your very heart.
You must be still before Me and seek My instructions unto you. 
Do not try to emulate someone else or their calling.
Do not assume that you know of yourself what you are to do.
You must hear and receive your assignments directly from Me and by My pattern.
I AM your Creator and I have placed hidden treasures, gifts, within you that are to be uncovered and brought forth to catapult
you into your calling in Me.
Now is the time for you to seek Me and My plans for I AM building and perfecting My Living Temple in which
I abide and through which I shall be glorified.


Ephesians 4:
1I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called,

2With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love;

3Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.

4There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;

5One Lord, one faith, one baptism,

6One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.

7But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ.

8Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men.

9(Now that he ascended, what is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth?

10He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things.)

11And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;

12For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:

13Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:

14That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;

15But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:

16From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.

I gave My life as a ransom for many, for whomsoever would come to Me.
I did this gladly.
I could see the wonderful future in store for those who would surrender to Me, accepting My kind offer. 

Yes, I took delight in giving all that many would come into My fold.
Don’t take this gift lightly, dear one.
It is the gift of all gifts.
It is the present of all presents, and I trust that you will treat it as such. 
Yes!  I trust that you will treat this wonderful gift of eternal life for what it is, the gift of all gifts,
the wonder of all wonders, the sacrifice of all sacrifices, for you, beloved. 
For you, I gave My life that you might have the gift of life,
eternal security that is found in knowing Me and accepting My gift,
the cost of which cannot be determined with a monetary price!!!

2Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man:
3And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary.
4And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man;

5Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.

6And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge saith.

7And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them?

8I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?

Luke 11:

9And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.

10For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.

I make all things new! I AM calling you into the new that I have for you.

There is a new year and a new day dawning.
I AM giving you an open door of opportunity to enter in to all the new that I have planned and purposed for you.
It will be a time of new beginnings, of fresh starts, of second (even third, fourth, ) chances.
Lay down all the old to enter in to all the new that I have for you!
Lighten your load that you may rise to your place in Me.
Let go of all unforgiveness, bitterness, hurt, confusion, fear, unbelief, and mistrust brought about by faith and trust in things of this world.
Replace it all with a right and close relationship of love, belief, faith, and trust in Me.
Rise to your place in Me and walk into the newness with Me!
