Joshobel,
Please bear with me. Wanted to move your post to the Prophets forum as well as leave it here. Haven't figured out the workings yet.
But here is Joshobel's response:
In the beginning, God said.... .
And God spoke so many wonderful things into existence!
But, what comes to mind is this: Light be! And light was!
How much more so are we to speak those things that be not as though they were!
In the beginning, of our life, ministry, first walk with Jesus, our second walk with Jesus [because of our 'knowing Him again' in our life], in bringing us into a new place.........that God has made provision. We speak what we see that which God the Father has revealed.
In each beginnings of our lives there is something coming forth....a new birthing of something which has come forth because we have believed on something which we have spoken forth whether it be good or evil [and some of these things are not because we have spoken it forth, but is of the devil's works][Jesus Christ came and was made manifest to destroy the works of the devil], but, nevertheless, a new birthing is taking place within us as we seek God, for revelation comes forth to push us further into HIM through His Son - Jesus, so that we are truly covered by the Son [sum of all things]. HE is our reward indeed. His Kingdom come, His will be done. The Kingdom of God is within us. Jesus Christ is the King! But we must see Him as thus, and proclaim Him as our King!
With His Kingdom comes much authority and power, but as little children we do not know much and use very little of what has been given to us.
But, as we abide in His love for us, we shall grow, and become good stewards of that which He has given unto us 'through the use of His gifts and of His Word'. But we must not look to the gifts, but to the Giver!
God is love, therefore His Kingdom comes full of mercy and full of grace, but judgment does come because of His great love for us........to do away with evil (from our midst).
God is love, therefore His Kingdom comes to set the captives free! And to heal, and to redeem the lost.
His Kingdom comes to be established here on this earth through the Body of Christ who is to be abiding in the Head [who is Jesus]. From Him shall we know all things as He reveals to His prophets and they shall be sent out ones with His message to take it to the nations to declare His Word! His people shall come together as one: one in body, one in spirit, for Christ comes to pull together His Church - a Bride made ready for Himself.
Jesus is our covering (and no other).
Jesus is our Head (and no other).
For by no other name can man be saved by.
Yes! We are be loved!
Time and time again! WE ARE LOVED!
As we abide in Him, we are the Beloved's surprise, because Christ shall be revealed to the world!
God bless you!
