"Reflections Upon Reflections" [of
The Father's Heart]
...."You, in Your great compassion,
did not forsake them in the wilderness; The pillar of cloud did not leave them
by day, to guide them on their way, nor the pillar of fire by night, to light
for them the way in which they were to go".... Nehemiah 9:19
NASB

IT TAKES FAITH FOR ONE TO ENTER INTO THE
PLACE OF ABIDING IN "SPIRITUAL REALITY"
Words of Prophecy
* When one dwells [abides] in spiritual reality THEN they shall have
spiritual reality [the deeper mysteries of My Word
and Kingdom] continually revealed to their heart [Ephesians 1:17-23].
* One of the
great distinguishing characteristics of those who are faithful [to My Will] in this final hour will be that they
will refuse to "plateau" [level off] and,
thus, they will continue to pursue the fullness of My plan at all cost to
themselves right until the end of the age. Truly I say to you, there is only ONE
way - and that way is found in Christ, alone! Now is the time wherein I will
show Myself strong on the behalf of those whose heart truly belongs to Me and,
in the process, I shall expose all that is apart from Me in the midst of the
congregations [1 Corinthians 3:10-15]. So
carry on, My faithful and obedient ones - KNOWING [having a revelation of the spiritual reality]
that your labor is NEVER in vain, in the Lord [1
Corinthians 15:58], and that surely you will have great reward for your
love and faithfulness - both in this age and the ages to come.
* Did Paul not write, "but one thing I do: forgetting what lies
behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead I press on toward the goal for
the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus" [Philippians 3:13-14], and did he not also write,
"do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your
mind [into the image of Christ], so that you
may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and
perfect" [Romans 12:2]? I call each and
every one of my children to no longer judge [discern] after the mind of the flesh but rather
in [through] the mind of Christ - for it is
only from this latter position that one will be able to discern that which is
"spiritual reality" and that which is not. In this final hour, My remnant Church
shall be found walking non-stop supernaturally, and they will be a people who
refuse to do or discern anything apart from My Spirit. Because of these things,
the revelatory gifts [the word of knowledge, word
of wisdom and the discerning of spirits] will empower them to not only
read the hearts of all those who cross their path like an "open book" but, also,
they will have an abiding and supernatural insight into the schemes of the Enemy
and, because of this, he will be devastated at every turn.
* In
this hour, I shall now begin to "awaken" all those who have chosen to walk apart
from faith, and the "spiritual reality" of the Kingdom - those that take that
which they discern by their five physical senses [their "own" understanding] as their "reality"
instead of Me.
* Those who "abide" [dwell] in Christ [spiritual reality] in the midst of My people will
be persecuted [to some degree] by those who
do not - without exception!
...."we consider and look
not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen; for the
things that are visible are temporal [brief and fleeting], but the things that
are invisible are deathless and everlasting".... 2 Corinthians 4:18 The
Amplified Translation
...."But by His doing you are IN Christ
Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification,
and redemption".... 1 Corinthians 1:30 NASB
...."May grace [God's
favor and empowerment] and peace [which is perfect well-being, all necessary
good, all spiritual prosperity, and freedom from fears and agitating passions
and moral conflicts] be multiplied to you in [the full, personal, precise, and
correct] knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord. For His divine power has
bestowed upon us all things that [are requisite and suited] to life and
godliness, through the [full, personal] knowledge of Him Who called us by and to
His own glory and excellence [virtue]".... 2 Peter 1:2-3 The Amplified
Translation
It takes faith [from the position of a heart that is "wholly given"
to God]for one to enter into the place of abiding in "spiritual
reality" [the reality of who they truly are "in
Christ"]. When one makes the "quality decision" [a decision of the heart from which there is no
turning back] to enter into the place of abiding in "spiritual
reality" [again, the "fullness" of who they
truly are, in Christ] Satan will [without exception] attempt to do anything
he possibly can to cause that one to turn back from that holy [and empowered]place [Ephesians 2:6].
Therefore, it is of the utmost importance for all those who are truly seeking
God [and the fullness of their Kingdom-position
and destiny, in Christ] in this hour to be found guarding their heart
with ALL diligence. For, as they do, "torrents" of living water will continually
proceed forth from deep within them - empowering them to not only rise above
EVERY attempt of the Enemy to hold them back but, also, putting him to flight
[pursuing him until he is consumed] [2 Samuel
22:30-40]wherever the Holy Spirit leads
them.
...."In the way of righteousness is life, and in its
pathway there is no death [no death can remain
standing]".... Proverbs 12:28
NASB
...."Keep and guard your heart with all vigilance and above
all that you guard, for out of it flow the springs of life".... Proverbs 4:23
The Amplified Translation
...."He who believes in Me [who cleaves
to and trusts in and relies on Me] as the Scripture has said, from his innermost
being shall flow [continuously] springs and rivers [torrents] of living
water".... John 7:38 The Amplified
Translation |
