Knowledge
without revelation is stagnant water, we can even teach knowledge but the fruit
it bears is simply knowledge. Revelation is imparted and expands our lives,
opens up possibilities and transforms our world. The revelation of Christ within
us is too big to view in its fullness, that’s why we are called to meditate on
Him and to enter into his thinking. We cannot enter into His thinking without
laying down the pride of our own thinking, or enter into the fullness of a
revelation without abandoning ourselves to the Lord of the
revelation.
The answers to every mystery are found in Christ. That’s why
the bible says we can know in part and also says that when we see Him we shall
be like Him for we shall see Him as He is.
The important issues of life
are unlocked when we rest and abandon ourselves to gazing upon
Him.
They are found in the communion in the body & the blood. In
the communion there is total provision. Why? Because it is Jesus we are
partaking of and in Him are found all the hidden treasures of wisdom and
knowledge. In the communion there is total provision. He gave it all that we
might gain all.
In partaking of the Body & the blood of Jesus we are
entering into Him and affirming our covenant with Him and He is entering into us
and all of the power of the Godhead is released in that meal. He drinks with us,
thus fulfilling his words in Matthew 6:29. “I say unto you, I will not drink of
henceforth of this fruit of the vine until the day I drink it new with you in my
Fathers Kingdom.”
It appears to me that the Church is neglecting the
most important message; that all of the provision of God is found in Him and he
offers this in the blood & the flesh of his own body freely.
That’s
why the bible says; 1 Corinthians 11:29-30
You should
examine yourself before eating the bread and drinking the cup. For if you eat
the bread or drink the cup without honoring the body of Christ,
you are eating and drinking God’s judgment upon yourself. That is why many of
you are weak and sick and some have even died.
Some of you are sick and
some have even died because you haven’t discerned the body of Jesus. It’s not a
message of condemnation as some have made it. It’s a message of invitation. It’s
a feast of the love of God, it’s an invitation to enter into Him and He into us.
It’s in this mystical union that the fullness of Christ and all that means is
found in the communion.
So I offer to you the invitation from God.
“Come Eat my flesh & drink my blood, enter into the union of heaven and
earth and be filled and satisfied.”
The mystery is ever expanding every
time you partake, being transformed and healed every time you eat and drink.
Jesus called this the food and drink of heaven given by the father. It is
perfect food because it comes from a perfect place.
It’s not a monthly
or weekly event; the early Church took it daily.
Acts 2:46
-And they continued daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking
bread from house to house, they ate with gladness and singleness of
heart.
We are called to live in this communion, it is a moment by moment
event, and we continually live in the provision of the Body and the blood of
Christ.
Reflection on His body and His blood takes us outside of time and
space and into the place where Jesus currently sits in eternity. The emblems we
use on earth to bring us into remembrance are just that, "emblems." The real
transaction of communion takes place as we by faith partake of Him where He
sits, at the right hand of the Father.
We must by faith enter that place
(seated with Him) in order to step into the full provision found in the body and
blood of Christ. We must understand that where he sits there is total
perfection; in that place there is no sickness, suffering, sorrow or satan. So
as we enter in the spirit, into that seat or throne where Jesus currently sits,
what we partake of is more than natural food and drink, It is life. That’s why
Jesus said in John 6, If you eat this food you will never hunger again, and if
you drink this blood you will never thirst again.
I try to eat this meal
in the natural on a daily basis, and my partaking in the spirit is a moment by
moment reflection of his provision in my life.
Some of you will be
healed as you step into the total provision of His body and His blood. Some of
you will find your true purpose in this life and the life to come.
My
prayer is that you will all be blessed beyond measure as you learn to dwell in
the total provision of Christ found in this meal.
As you eat and drink
of this Eternal meal your DNA will be transformed and your earthly life enriched
by its provision. Enjoy.
After nearly forty years of walking in the
faith, I have never tired of this meal, it is more desirable to me today than
when I first began, because the more I eat it the more my DNA is changed and I
appear in His image.
