What God Is Saying

The Name of Jesus represents the Person of Jesus, just as your name represents you. The Name of Jesus when used by those who represent Jesus, carries His authority and power. This is the Name that is above all names and everything that can be named - in Heaven earth and under the earth. And it has been given to the Ecclesia, the Body of Christ to exercise in the earth for His purposes . .

Jesus is the Head of His Body and the Body is the Body of Christ. Christ is not Jesus' last name, it is the Greek word for the Hebrew word for the Anointed One and/or His Anointing. With the anointing comes a level of authority and power relative to the body part you are. The Body of Christ is an Anointed Body. It does not have power or authority on it's own, it gets them from the Head, Jesus Christ. A head cannot do anything without a body, nor can a body do anything without a head . .

The Ecclesia (Church) of The Lord Jesus was not directly revealed in the Old Testament. It isn't until after Jesus' Resurrection that the Holy Spirit began revealing the types and shadows of Christ and His Ecclesia from the Old Testament. Had the devil known God's plan, he NEVER would have crucified The Lord Jesus! Because the Cross was his undoing and when Christ was raised out of death into life - so were we. The anointing on God's holy people busts up all the devil's work . .

The Bible tells us Jesus was anointed with the power of Holy Spirit and went about "doing good and healing all those oppressed of the devil". Jesus came to destroy the works of the devil. He did that because He had the anointing, not because He was the Son of God. He was and is God's Son before and after He came. Jesus came in the power and authority of the Holy Spirit to show you and me what that same Holy Spirit power and authority would look like in the lives of those who believe in His Name. For these signs follow those who believe in His Name . .

Everything that Jesus did from the time He was taken into custody in Gethsemane to when He was seated at the right hand of God the Father – He did not do for Himself. He did it on our behalf. When He was crucified, I was crucified with Him. When He died, I died with Him. When He was buried, I was buried with Him. When He was made alive, I was made alive with Him. When He was raised, I was raised with Him. When He ascended to Heaven, I ascended with Him. And when He was seated on High, I was seated on High with Him . .

Jesus came to give us Life and life more abundant. Life and death are not events, they are conditions. In relation to man and God this life Jesus came to give us means Union with God. We are supposed to be intimately united with God. Death is separation from God, who is Life. The life Jesus came to bring us makes us more than conquerors, puts us above everything that is not in union with God. Which includes all devils, sin and the world . .

Everything that Adam lost in the Fall, Jesus came and got it back! Hallelujah! That's why two of Christ's titles are the Second Adam and the Last Adam. The devil doesn't want us to know that – but it is too late. It has been written in the Book for all to know. The light of which changes man from failure to overcomer in Jesus' Name.

The Bible says that before God placed man in the Garden of Eden, before Adam was given a wife or named all the animals - God made him sovereign over the earth. His was a dominion of love, much like the God who created him loved him. When Adam sinned and broke fellowship with God, he also surrendered his authority over earth to Satan, the adversary. But God sent Jesus to restore what Adam lost . .

God wants His people to know the spiritual authority and heavenly access they have in Christ - and use it in their daily lives. In this series we will be looking at the significance of what Jesus meant when He gave us the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven. For those who want to pass their tests in these last days, these messages are essential and need to be heard repeatedly. The revelation knowledge here is life changing, and for all believers at all times . .

The Old Testament prophet Amos asked, How can two walk together and not agree? If we want to walk with God we have to learn to agree with God. To agree with God means a whole lot more than knowing a few Bible verses. Agreeing with and walking with God is a heart thing, not just a head thing. We must learn to love what God loves and hate what He hates. The more we do that the more we can experience the fullness of fellowship with God - which results in being Anointed with the oil of Joy! And the joy [of being in union with The Lord] is your strength. Hallelujah!

Unlike other kinds of love, the love that God is (God is Love remember) is not toward everything or everybody. Because it is Divine, we cannot take the love of God and apply it to what God does not love. God loves what He made, which includes the way He made it. Jesus was sent to provide mankind a way back into God's love. No, God doesn't love us the way we are in our sinful state - any more than He loves the sin that destroys us or the devil that tempts us. The Father loves who and how He is making us to be. Which is like Jesus, the Beloved.

God is Love is not some hallmark greeting card quip. The Bible is never being trivial, whether man is or not. God is love is eternal truth revealed in the Scriptures for all to know and believe. That love that God IS has been deposited into the heart of every child of God by the Holy Spirit. We have as many misconceptions about God as we do love and even many Christian's confusion about love is off the charts. God's love inside us is not different from how God Himself is . .

True Faith is a persuasion a confidence a conviction of something Good has said that you are willing to Act upon without seeing it beforehand. It is why we say to do something by faith requires you to "step out". Step out of what? Step out of what you see think or feel, on the Word He gave you. THEN God shows up with His grace. Everybody wants the grace, nobody wants to step out. But stepping out is how you Receive by Faith. .

The Bible refers to the promises of the Blessing as the Christian's inheritance. But just like an inheritance left to children in the earth oftentimes is only given when the child comes of age, there are many promises of God that we cannot partake of until we grow up. Jesus is the full grown Son we must all be growing up into. It is Christ whom the Bible says we are co-heirs with. Yes, becoming like Jesus is going to take faith and much commitment on our part, but we have a lot of help . .

Self control and discipline are two aspects of our faith race which are not popular at all but absolutely essential. If we do not control ourselves from doing wrong and fail to discipline ourselves from doing right - it is possible that we become a "castaway".I didn't say that, the apostle Paul did. About himself. No matter all the good he had done and accomplished for the Kingdom, if he didn't manage his faculties it would have been all for nothing in his case. That's why he began by saying, I do all things for the sake of the Gospel so that I may become a partaker of it . .

Just like the Israelites had to fight to take their Promised Land, we have to fight the good fight of faith to receive what Jesus came to give us. Not because it isn't free, but because we have to Receive it. Faith Receives what God has promised. For example, Healing is a promise in Scripture. But you have to fight the good fight of faith to press through any and all opposition to your faith so you can Receive that promise. Sometimes it is easier than at other times. But do you just quit and give up - or do you keep pressing through determined to possess what God has promised you . .

Another hard saying of Jesus was the Kingdom of God suffers violence and the violent take it by force. What did He mean by that? Isn't violence opposed to the nature of Christ? Certainly in the usual context yes. But when it comes to the evil of the flesh and the pressures of the world around us NOT to be and have and do everything God has invited us into - you cannot be passive. You have to make a decision to take what Jesus paid for you to have, and do everything in your power to overcome those things keeping you out . .

Ideally, everybody wants Life and to have it more abundantly – but they don't want to go through the Narrow Gate, walking the Straight Road to get it! (No you're not the only one.) Jesus said for us to arrive at Life or Destruction is not determined by what we claim, but by the path we take. You can claim Life all day long, but if you go down the broad way – the way you take will determine your destiny. Choose life every day by choosing the Way to life. The Narrow Way . .

What kind of people does God want in His Kingdom? Childlike and humble. In other words, just like Jesus! Childlike is not being childish. A few things about Childlikeness is that it is willing to help, ready to share, teachable and correctable, humble, not proud, forgiving and thankful. Jesus said SUCH AS THESE shall enter in and receive the Kingdom . .

We have seen from the Scriptures that Jesus commanded us to Strive to Enter into the fullness He came to provide. And that without applying ourselves the right way, the promises of God will not just fall on us like ripe cherries off a tree – we will just go without. We do not want that and nor does God. However great the Grace of God is, we still have to fight the good fight of Faith. So it is very important to know the manner of striving Jesus was talking about. It is not a striving of the flesh but of faith in the Word by the Spirit . .

God is throwing a Party – a Salvation Party, a Healing Party, a Blessing Party – and you've been invited! God tells us all in Isaiah 55:1-3 NIV “Come, all you who are thirsty, come to the waters; and you who have no money, come, buy and eat! Come, buy wine and milk without money and without cost. Why spend money on what is not bread, and your labor on what does not satisfy? Listen, listen to Me, and eat what is good, and you will delight in the richest of fare. Give ear and come to Me; listen, that you may live. . .". But you don't have to come, you can do your own thing instead and go without . .

The Lord gave us this powerful message about God's finished work. Which is what our faith is striving to enter. God finished His Work – He expects us to finish ours. Our Labor of Faith. God Rested from His work on the 7th Day of Creation. Our work of faith results in the Rest of Faith, which is the entering of our Rest – the place where all God's promises are fulfilled . .

Grace is a free gift, not that it costs God nothing – but because we are not owed it, do not deserve it and cannot earn it. But that doesn't mean we cannot have it! We just have to receive it the way God says – which is by our Faith. Grace cost God the price of His only Son. Which is why He is not shy about our faith costing us. In truth Jesus told us ahead of time it is going to cost you everything . .

Today we begin a series based on one of the hard sayings of Jesus. Hard not because He is a meanie, but because God's not playin' - whether we ever were or not. There is no reason to make Christianity harder than it actually is and God wants all who will to come in. But there will be a certain Press on our part to attaining all the fullness of God. Jesus wasn't talking about us earning our salvation, but rather us doing our part to value His invitation to this full, overflowing, abundant life He came to give us!

The government of God is not democratic or socialistic. It is a Kingdom and a meritocracy. Jesus is not a president or a prime minister or a dictator. He is The King of kings and Lord of lords. We can be the kings and lords He is King and Lord over - if we are faithful. Salvation is paid in full by Jesus, but Reward is earn by our deeds. And pay day is coming! Faith gets ready . .
