JOHN 12:21 The same came therefore to Philip, which was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and desired him, saying, Sir, we would see Jesus.
We are living in the information age. Never before in history has there been so much information available to the average person. You can log on to the Internet and find virtually any information you need within minutes.
The prophet Daniel prophesied about these days when he said there would come a time when knowledge would increase (Dan 12:4).
The word increase here is the Hebrew word rabab H7232: to shoot an arrow. It means to increase by the speed of an arrow flying through the air; in other words, knowledge will rapidly increase. Certainly, we are aware that this is happening now.
1 CORINTHIANS 15:46 first in the natural then in the spiritual… Not only is knowledge increasing at a tremendous rate in the natural, but also in the spiritual. This Christian generation has been given more light and understanding than any previous. The problem is that this can lead to the deception that causes us to believe that because we know more, we are more spiritual. Unfortunately, this is not the case.
The church tends to fill the people with doctrine rather than filling them with deity
We have entertainment, we have music – sometimes good music – but do we have Jesus manifest in our midst? We sing the right songs, the latest choruses, but do we have Jesus? The virtue of any church or Christian institution is not so much in its doctrines, but rather in the quality of people it produces.
1 CORINTHIANS 13:2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not love, I am nothing.
This verse of scripture highlights the danger of knowing but not living the truth. The deception of knowing but not living the truth is very powerful. It is based on pride and God resists the proud. The root characteristic of Satan’s kingdom is pride and God hates pride. He states that it is an abomination to Him (Pro 16:5). Pride has a thousand faces; however, the pride that often comes with knowledge is the cause of much barrenness in the church today.
Jesus moved in Kingdom Authority, but his teaching was primarily about Kingdom Character
The Sermon on the Mount is a picture of Kingdom Character. So much today is about how to achieve, how to succeed, how to become something. When did you last hear a message on the Sermon on the Mount? The words meek and lowly don’t feature in sermons much anymore, even though Jesus clearly said to learn these attributes from Him:
MATTHEW 11:29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
Our quest is not to know more, but to become more and more like Him. The reality is that the more you become like Him, the more you understand and gain true insight into the reality and nature of Who He is and His universe. The meek shall inherit the earth; He gives more grace to the humble.
The prime role of the Church is to conform people to the image of Jesus.
This may start with salvation, but we are saved to become something else – to become like Jesus. Jesus said that when He is lifted, He would draw all men unto Himself. The world is still looking for Christians – “Christ-Like Ones” – to demonstrate unity that is proportionate to the degree to which they have become like Jesus. Unity is not something we can achieve outside of becoming like Jesus. James asked the question: “Where do wars among you come from?” speaking of wars in the church:
JAMES 4:1 From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members?
JOHN 17:22 And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one:
I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.
God said to Moses:
EXODUS 33:19 I will allow my Glory (Goodness) to pass before you.
It is the goodness of God in us that will draw people to the Lord. When the Greeks (gentiles) came to Phillip and said, “we would see Jesus,” it reflected a desire that rings down through the ages and the world is still waiting to see Jesus in the church.
Jesus said:
MATTHEW 8:20 where two or three are gathered together in my name I am in the midst of them
You may say that you believe that this is true. However, unless people feel Him, experience Him, He is not a reality to the man on the street. Faith must be turned into reality or manifestation.
Two kinds of people are highlighted in the book of Malachi
One group spoke with arrogant words and declared out of the abundance of their hearts, “What good has it done that we’ve served the Lord and kept his ordinances?” Mal 3:4). Their pride had deceived them.
The other group, “…spoke often one to another (about the nature of their awesome God)”. The Lord said that this group would make up the jewels in His crown and then it will once again be clear and discernible who really serves God and who doesn’t (Mal 3:16-18). The world is still saying, “We would see Jesus!”
2 CORINTHIANS 4:6 For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ
HEBREWS 12:2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
Knowing Jesus
JOHN 12:21 The same came therefore to Philip, which was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and desired him, saying, Sir, we would see Jesus.
Knowing Jesus must be the principal quest of our lives
Many things take our time in our Christian pursuits, but none are as important as knowing Jesus. You can know the Scriptures without knowing the Lord.
JOHN 5:39 Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. 40. And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life.
The Pharisees were doctors of the Law, the Old Testament scriptures, but they did not know the Lord or the author of the Scriptures – the Holy Spirit. One of the major problems with Bible schools is that the students primarily learn or are given knowledge of the Scriptures and the purposes of God, but, again, you can have all that without knowing Jesus.
JOHN 17:3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.
To know Jesus as a personal friend is the greatest privilege we have. Not just knowing about Him, but really knowing Him. Jesus said to the disciples that He would be their friend. This was not a casual relationship; daily they had access to Him, talked with Him about everything, and heard Him talking. This earthly walk that the disciples had with Jesus is a picture of the relationship He wants with us today:
JOHN 14:25 These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you. 26. But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. 27. Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. 28. Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I. 29. And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come to pass, ye might believe.
JOHN 14:18 I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.
The disciples were troubled because Jesus had told them that He would go away. They could not understand what He was trying to tell them. In hindsight, we know that Jesus was talking about His death, resurrection, and ascension to heaven. However, Jesus clearly said that after He went away, He would come to them again. He was not talking about His Second Coming; He was talking about coming to them via the Person of the Holy Spirit. When the Holy Spirit came at Pentecost, not only were those in the Upper Room empowered, but a new era opened up – an era of the Holy Spirit in His role to enable Jesus to manifest Himself to us.
JOHN 14:21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
The word manifest in this verse in the Greek language is the word emphanizo G718: to exhibit (in person) or appear, declare (plainly), manifest, show.
After His death and before His ascension into heaven, Jesus appeared to the disciples and others at least 12 times:
• On the road to Emmaus (Lk 24:15)
• To Mary Magdalene (Mk 16:9)
• To the 11 apostles (Jn 20:20)
• He appeared to 500 people at one time.
I CORINTHIANS 15:4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the Scriptures: 5. And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: 6. After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. 7. After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles.
We see all these manifestations of Jesus as He appeared to His people, making it very clear that He had not gone to a place where He could not be reached – He wanted them to know that He was still available to them.
The Problem
The problem is that Christians have been taught that this kind of relationship with Jesus is not available on this side of heaven except on very special and rare occasions. This view is contrary to the Scriptures.
Jesus said, “I will MANIFEST myself to you.” I have often heard it quoted, “We walk by faith and not by sight (2 Cor 5:7).”
What the Apostle Paul was clearly saying is that we do not walk in the spirit based on what we see in the natural in this world.
The reality is that we walk by faith and on that basis, we see in the realm of spirit.
Trying to have a relationship with an invisible spirit is difficult. We have to enter the Lord’s realm, which is spirit. With the eyes of the heart, we walk in the spirit realm and have fellowship with Him.
God created two realms: the invisible world and the visible world; both of these worlds are real. In fact, the invisible world is more real than the visible.
COLOSSIANS 1:16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:
When we were born again, we were given the capacity to see into the invisible realm of God.
2 CORINTHIANS 4:18 While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.
Often, we hear that God is invisible, and that is true. He is invisible to those in this natural earthly realm.
1 TIMOTHY 1:17 Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.
However, both Jesus and the Apostle Paul spoke of the reality of seeing into the realm of God while still on this earth:
JOHN 3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
The Kingdom of God is in the realm of spirit. When you were born again you were given the capacity to see into the invisible with the eyes of your heart.
Sovereign experiences vs. walking in the realm of spirit
Much confusion has arisen because of these two seemingly contradictory positions. God does at times in His sovereignty intervene in the affairs of man by appearing to man. This is also true of angels.
However, our walk with God is not made up of occasional sovereign interventions.
Remember – when Moses sent the spies into the Promised Land and they came back with luscious grapes, all that would be available to them if they would just go after it and possess the land.
God often does this with His people – giving them an experience and in doing so saying: I want you to walk in this.
God rarely enters our realm – this natural realm; we have to enter His realm
When the Apostle John was on the Isle of Patmos, he had an incredible encounter with the Lord and entered the realm of the Kingdom of God – the eternal realm. The book of Revelation came out of this experience. Let’s look at how this happened:
REVELATION 1:10 I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet.
Notice first: John was IN THE SPIRIT on the Lord’s day.
What does “in the Spirit” mean?
Well, John’s focus, his mind, and heart were on the Lord and he was aware of the realm of spirit. That was a state that he was responsible for; he placed himself in a condition of being able to enter God’s realm. John had already entered the realm of spirit, God’s realm, and while there he heard the voice of God and saw the Lord.
When Peter walked on water, it was not a sovereign act of the Lord. Peter had to consciously get out of the boat and walk on the water, but as soon as his focus shifted to this realm – the waves and wind – he began to sink. As soon as he took his eyes off the Lord who was in the Spirit he began to lose it.
Seeing Jesus in the midst of trouble
ROMANS 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. Is this really true? Do you really believe this? When some tragedy strikes or things go horribly wrong, do you believe this?
Is it possible to live in such a way that the things happening all around us work towards our good? What about the devil and the things he does in Christians lives – can we say that all these things work together for good?
If you say that this scripture does not mean ALL things, what part of all don’t you understand?
The apostle Paul wrote this under the unction of the Holy Spirit. In other words, the Father had the Holy Spirit write this verse of scripture through the Apostle Paul.
Paul also wrote this:
PHILIPPIANS 1:12 But I would ye should understand, brethren, that the things which happened unto me have fallen out rather unto the furtherance of the gospel.
What had happened to Paul?
2 CORINTHIANS 11:23 Are they ministers of Christ? (I speak as a fool) I am more; in labours more abundant, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequent, in deaths oft. 24. Of the Jews five times received I forty stripes save one. 25, Thrice was I beaten with rods, once was I stoned, thrice I suffered shipwreck, a night and a day I have been in the deep; 26. In journeyings often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in perils by mine own countrymen, in perils by the heathen, in perils in the city, in perils in the wilderness, in perils in the sea, in perils among false brethren; 27. In weariness and painfulness, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness.
Was Paul out of the will of God when these things happened to him? NO!
God was very proud of a certain man in the Old Testament and He said this about him:
JOB 1:8 And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil?
Job was a good man, a very good man, and we all know what happened to him. Those who condemn others by insinuating that when things go wrong in a person’s life it is because they have sinned or they must be out of the will of God show a profound lack of understanding in the ways of God.
Jesus came that we might have life, but primarily the quality of life that Jesus was talking about was that which is found in our spirit:
2 CORINTHIANS 4:16 For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day. 17. For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory.
Seeing Jesus in everything
We recently saw young children die in their school when a crazed gunman shot them. Many would say, “Where was God?” Where were the angels who look after these children? What good can come out of this shocking incident?
Well, firstly, God is good, He does all things well, He loves us all unconditionally. Secondly, God is not the author or propagator of evil. He does not cause evil, nor does He wish us evil, but when it happens, He can turn it around for good. He can cause good to come out of it.
We need to understand that God looks at the eternal perspective; we as humans on this earth tend only to see things in the context of our present lives.
Pharaoh murdered thousands of children in Egypt; many centuries later, Herod would repeat this same atrocity – where was God?
He was grieving in heaven; however, those lives which were snuffed out are spoken about in Mat 2:18:
MATTHEW 2:16 Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked of the wise men, was exceeding wroth, and sent forth, and slew all the children that were in Bethlehem, and in all the coasts thereof, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had diligently inquired of the wise men. 17. Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying, 18. In Rama was there a voice heard, lamentation, and weeping, and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not.
This was a quote from Jeremiah 31:15-17
JEREMIAH 31:15 Thus saith the LORD; A voice was heard in Ramah, lamentation, and bitter weeping; Rachel weeping for her children refused to be comforted for her children, because they were not.
Matthew links this scripture with Herod and the slaughter of the children during the time of Jesus – it was history repeating itself, but look what Jeremiah says immediately afterward:
JEREMIAH 31:16 Thus saith the LORD; Refrain thy voice from weeping, and thine eyes from tears: for thy work shall be rewarded, saith the LORD; and they shall come again from the land of the enemy. 17. And there is hope in thine end, saith the LORD, that thy children shall come again to their own border.
Thy work shall be rewarded. This work is the bearing of the children that were killed.
Note the wording of Jeremiah 31:17 – And there is hope in thine end, saith the LORD, that thy children shall come again to their own border.
These children which were killed will have a special place and destiny in God’s purposes when Jesus returns to this earth. The mothers of these children will also have a special reward.
Do all things work together for good to them that love God? YES! This does not mean that we will be spared grief in this world. We live in a world of evil and gross sin, but in the midst of it all, we SEE JESUS who is causing all things to work together for Good, turning evil into a positive ending with eternal rewards for those who suffer and are willing to trust God in all things, knowing that He doeth all things well.
Down Syndrome children have a special place, purpose, and reward when they finally leave this world. Do you believe that the Lord knew that these children would be born that way? Of course, He knew!
2 TIMOTHY 1:9 Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began.
SEEING JESUS amid TROUBLE AND TRAGEDY BRINGS GREAT COMFORT AND GREAT REWARDS TO THOSE WHO ARE EXERCISED THEREBY
God’s first priority with us is that we are prepared and qualify for the ongoing purposes that God has destined us for in the ages to come. He will do all that is possible for us to reach the highest qualification for our ongoing eternal purpose and destiny in God. If this requires periods of hardship and difficulties, it is not too high a price to pay in light of eternity:
ROMANS 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. 29. For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.
Seeing Jesus in all things
COLOSSIANS 1:16 For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him. 17. And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist.
Before all things – before time, before space, before night or day, before creation had even begun – there was but one thing: a pool of blood, a snow-white Lamb, cold and dead.
Revelation 13:8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.
World G2889: kosmos, the universe. Out of death came life; the universe came into existence and continues to exist because of the Lamb slain before the foundation of the universe.
The seed that fell back then in an existence without time became the life, the very substance or matter of all things, both in the visible universe and in the invisible kingdom of spirit.
The apostle Paul said, “No one lives unto themselves and no one dies unto themselves (Rom 14:7).”
Every death is a process of change. Death, from the beginning, has been the source of life. This is one of the most fundamental realities of life – the very foundation of all that exists.
Metamorphosis has always been the process of change. The caterpillar is transformed by giving up its little grubby life to be free and fly.
You have to lose to gain, give to get, die to live. In the days that lie ahead, death is going to be everywhere; we must not be fazed by this.
We are going to see ever-increasing occurrences of plagues and catastrophes such as earthquakes, roaring tidal waves, nuclear exchanges, and chemical warfare.
The Bible indicates that before Jesus returns to the earth, the human population will be reduced by two thirds.
In the midst of all of this carnage, we are told to LOOK UP, for profound change is coming (Lk 21:28).
ISAIAH 6:1 In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and lifted up, and the train of His robe filled the temple. 2. Above it stood seraphim; each one had six wings: with two he covered his face, with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew. 3. And one cried to another and said: “Holy, holy, holy is the LORD of hosts; The whole earth is full of His glory!”
How could these angels say the whole earth is full of His glory? In a world of misery, war, bloodshed, and treachery, how could this be? It all depends on where you are looking.
The glory of the Lord is all around us; we just have to take time to stop and look. In this continuous cycle of living and dying, one thing I have learned is that… Death is but a graduation, a metamorphosis, a new beginning.
The next decade will be both frightening and glorious.
Frightening to those who only see death and destruction, but glorious to those who see life, transformation, hope, and glory. Why am I writing like this? Because we need to be prepared to face the next few years with hope, and, like the cherubim around the throne, to see the earth as being full of glory.
God will transform death and destruction into unbelievable glory and wonder. In the meantime, stop and smell the roses; the Lord is seen in every flower, every bird, every tree, and, most of all, in every Christian. Without His life and glory in all things, all things would cease to exist.
Take time to look, see, smell, feel, wonder, slow down. Church life can often be hazardous to your health. Slow down.
Busyness does not necessarily equate with fruitfulness; in fact, often it produces barrenness.
This is a time of change. For all of us, in one way or another, this is a time of new beginnings. Grasp the moment, turn every negative, every tragedy, every death into a glorious new day. Grieve if you need to, but bring the grieving to an end and begin a new day. All things are working together for good to them that love God and are called according to His purposes. Time is short. The best years of your life can be ahead of you if, like Paul, you forget the past and press on to the mark, the prize of the high calling. Time is running out; if you are my age, your grandchildren are the last generation.
REVELATION 10:6 And sware by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the things that therein are, and the sea, and the things which are therein, that there should be time no longer.
Your time is now and it soon will end for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh. As the world begins to spiral out of control, the glory of the Lord will increase. As your eyes and mind are opened to see the purposes of God and the wisdom of God, the growing darkness will be light to you.
ISAIAH 60:1 Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee. 2. For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.
Trust the Lord for He does all things well, even when we don’t understand it:
GENESIS 50:20 But as for you, ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as it is this day, to save much people alive.
As we move through the next few years in a world of destruction and death, see Jesus, see His wisdom, His purposes, His compassion, and the seeds of life being sown. He does all things well; God will turn all tragedy into Glory – every abortion will result in more being added to the Kingdom. Satan cannot win. Whatever he does, God turns into redemptive purposes.
The Days Ahead
We need to see that the days that lie ahead don’t cause us to falter. Seeing the purposes of God in the midst of all of this is very important. God knows what He is doing. God’s judgments are redemptive.
ISAIAH 26:9 With my soul have I desired thee in the night; yea, with my spirit within me will I seek thee early: for when thy judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness.
All of the calamities in the earth today are just birth pangs, heralding a new world to come. In the meantime, we must fulfill what God has called us to do in the time we have left.
Kingdom qualities needed for Kingdom warfare
Love overcomes hate, light overcomes darkness, and demons are defeated when they run into God-like qualities in Christians.
As Christians, we either empower the angelic forces around us or we empower the demonic forces around us. It may come to you as a shock that many Christians empower the demonic forces around them in their daily lives. We are told that we must not give place to the devil.
EPHESIANS 4:26 Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath 27. Neither give place to the devil.
Demons feed off what we speak and what we emanate. Harsh words emanate a power that demons feed on. When you speak harshly to your children, you strengthen the demons around them. Negative, destructive words towards one’s spouse feed the evil powers around them.
Words are power, especially when they come from the mouths of spirit-filled Christians.
The Sermon on the Mount is a masterpiece of divine strategy for defeating the enemy. Because we are made in the image of God and God creates through the words He speaks, our words also have enormous power. Do the Scriptures not say that we are gods?
PSALMS 82:6 I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High.
JOHN 10:34 Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods? 35. If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken…
This is why the Bible says that the tongue can be set on fire from hell and is a very dangerous part of our anatomy. It can be used for great good or great evil.
PROVERBS 21:23 Whoso keepeth his mouth and his tongue keepeth his soul from troubles.
JAMES 3:5 Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth! 6. And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell.
10. Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be.
It is all a matter of who you are empowering. If we don’t learn to guard our mouth, the coming darkness will overpower us.
There is a book by Dr. Masaru Emoto called The Hidden Messages in Water.
This ground-breaking work of a pioneer Japanese researcher contains astonishing discoveries about water, documented photographically, and has changed most of what we know about Earth’s most precious resource. Dr. Masaru Emoto was born in Japan and is a graduate of the Yokohama Municipal University and the Open International. University as a Doctor of Alternative Medicine. His photographs were first featured in his self-published books: Messages from Water 1 and 2. The Hidden Messages in Water was first published in Japan, with over 400,000 copies sold internationally. What has put Dr. Emoto at the forefront of the study of water is his proof that thoughts and feelings affect physical reality. By producing different focused intentions through written and spoken words and music and literally presenting it to the same water samples, the water “changed its expression”. When music from Mozart’s Symphony was played the Crystals form into the image. This is very interesting and shows that life in these crystals responded to music and words. When we realize that all things are held together by the life and power of Jesus, we see how that life responds to Love and positive affirmation.
COLOSSIANS 1:16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him. 17. And he is before all things, and by him all things consist
The Greek word consist here is the word sunistao G4921: held together.
When the words “You make me sick, I will kill you” were spoken, the crystals formed into an awful-looking image.
MARK 11:23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.
When the words “Love and gratitude” were spoken the crystals formed into a beautiful image. Beautiful, isn’t it?
PSALMS 19:14 Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer.
Finally, when heavy metal music was played, the crystals formed into a vortex of total confusion. When you realize that we are mostly made up of water, what are the words that we speak and sing and the music we listen to doing to our bodies?
King David said: “Set a watch over my mouth, oh Lord.”
PSALMS 141:3 Set a watch, O LORD, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips.
As we learn to manifest the nature of Jesus and our words become those of grace and love, we will begin to empower the angels around us and begin to see Jesus in ways we have never seen Him before.
