As a new creation, you have access to God’s wisdom, strength, provision, protection; you have access to everything God has through what Jesus Christ has accomplished. 2 Corinthians 5:17 – “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.” Philippians 1:6 – “being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ”
It’s possible that we can learn to please God. Jesus said “My Father has not left me. He is always with me because I always do the things that please Him.” In Christ, we already please God because we believe in His Son. Here are some definite ways to please God.
Every generation demands an anointing that is relevant to its time, an anointing that’s in touch with the time. When you understand the level of hostility that the devil has released and is expressing himself in, you’ll understand that the church cannot survive with anything less than a radical, authoritative, governmental and pioneering spirit.
Joseph was the first brother to be lost, and the last to be restored — in this there is a parallel to the apostolic office of the 5-fold ministry. Apostles were the first office lost to the Church, and the last to be restored and accepted.
But you have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, to an innumerable company of angels, to the general assembly and church of the firstborn who are registered in heaven, to God the Judge of all, to the spirits of just men made perfect, to Jesus the Mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling that speaks better things than that of Abel.
Sound is produced when something vibrates. The vibrating body causes the medium (water, air, etc.) around it to vibrate. These are some ways to develop patterns of Christ that release an unmistakable frequency.
The word fullness is pléróma. The image given is of a boat loaded with oarsmen, provision and soldiers to protect the supplies. It has everything it needs to reach it’s destination. Jesus came at the fullness of time, and the fullness of God dwells in Him bodily.
Jesus told his apostles “I give you the keys of the Kingdom.” We are part of the eternal Kingdom. These are keys that will help you to live the kingdom lifestyle, learning meekness and humility from Jesus, operating in rest and bearing fruit to the glory of God.
“…let him take hold of My strength, That he may make peace with Me; And he shall make peace with Me.” -Isaiah 27:5
Faith works through love.
Love is patient.
Between the manifestation of your faith and the release of your faith, there is a time where you must exercise patience.
John 17 – Oh Holy Father maintain a watchful care over them in your name, which you have given me, in order that they may be one as we are one. When I was with them I constantly maintained a watchful care over them in your name, those whom you have given me. And I guided them and no one of them were lost except the son of perdition, in order that the scriptures might be fulfilled.
There are many things that can make us fear our future, so it is important to understand how to address the future. What do we say about our future? The scripture gives us keys to understand and think about our future.
“But what things were gain to me, these I have counted loss for Christ. Yet indeed I also count all things loss for the excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them as rubbish, that I may gain Christ.”
As an apostolic people, we need to understand the inner make-up of a true apostle, knowing that Christ Jesus is our main example as the Apostle and High Priest of our confession of faith (Heb 3:1). Paul’s defense of his Apostleship provides the spiritual technology for unveiling the inner workings of an apostolic mind-set and behavioral patterns for an apostolic reformation church.
So the Lord saved Israel that day out of the hand of the Egyptians, and Israel saw the Egyptians dead on the seashore. Thus Israel saw the great work which the Lord had done in Egypt; so the people feared the Lord, and believed the Lord and His servant Moses.
