We have entered, a new walk in God. Every step we take, we must hear what the spirit is saying. Walk softly before Him. Walk in the purity of our heart, not our emotions. All of our thoughts, and acts, must be submissive to His will. My desire is walk in the reality, that we were, we are, and we will be. Just as He was, He is, and He will be. “Praise God” We are a cloud of witnesses He ordained. We are His people, where He is there we are also. God is opening our eyes, to behold the beauty, of His appearing in His People.
We do not fear because of this day. We have the words of life, and death, in our mouth, He is telling us to keep our eye upon Him. This is the day He is unveiling Himself in His glory. He is God in control of both good, and evil. He is God, He take the evil and uses if for our good. He does not see light and darkness, He is light and the darkness must keep it’s bounds. You are going to see men stand in God proclaiming life. Death is destroyed. We see the heavens, and their host rejoicing. This, is a wonderful day. This is the day of the Lord. He put His Word in our mouth, to proclaim His Word without fear among man. We rejoicing in the Spirit of life. God didn’t put us here to suffer. He put us in the earth too bring it back to harmony in Him. When we look to the Christ within we see no shame, or condemnation. I believe every experience of the past, was a type, and shadow, of things that now appear. You are His expression, His Body. He filled You with Himself. You are not alone, He has chose you to express Himself. He is bringing us to an understanding of completeness in Him. He may choose a vessel in order to bring understanding to a multitude. Yet He doesn’t honor that vessel anymore than He does the multitude. This this mighty God. He planed it all, spanned it all out, and is now unveiling Himself.
He permitted all this we see as a great turmoil, He sees as a great victory. He created vessels for His use. He created some to abide and express Himself in. You will not have the frustrations of the world, when your understanding is enlightened. You are a vessel in the hands of God. He ordered every step you take. There are some who feel they had a will to accept or reject salvation. They didn’t, choose to be born. Didn’t choose where they were going to be born. Didn’t choose their parents, or their, siblings. In the plan of God He knew you. You were a vessel, He chose in Christ. When it was time for you to be an expression of Him, He chose you to be born. In that day, in that time, in that hour. Not To fulfill your will, or someone else’s will, but to fulfill His will, His plan. He ordered your steps. You, were chosen in Christ before the foundation of the world. (Eph 1: 3-4 “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: According as He hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love.”
We need to lay down every idle thing, that has kept us in bondage all these years. Come alive, and realize we are in the hand of our God, who created all thing. Col 1: 16 Tells us all things, both heaven and earth, were created by Him and for Him, both the seen, and unseen. He created all power, and principalities. 17. He is before all things, and by him all things consist. (made up of diverse elements)
I am reminded of Paul, God told him he was going to Rome. When he started to go, he experienced a shipwreck. Oh the turmoil he was going through, He was still a vessel in the hand of God. God was proving a point. He, was exposing himself to a people. He, was using a vessel in order to do so. When the viper attached itself to Paul’s hand, everyone was waiting for him to die. Dose the viper have hold of your hand? The world is waiting for you to fail. Your circumstances, and frustrations, are waiting for you to give up. You have all this coming at you, God says you are my child, You belong to me. I, have ordered your steps. I, have a paradise for you. I have a glory I have given unto you. Are you going to let the viper kill you? Or will you rise up and say, “God has given me a promise, I shall live and not die, I shall be changed, conformed, to the image of His Son Christ Jesus.” While they waited for him to die. He simply shook off the viper. God said He was going to Rome. He proceeded to accomplish what God had planed for him. Not what he had chosen. I am thinking of another man of great authority, placed in a position where God needed a Vessel. When He was a baby, he was put in a basket, and sent floating down the river. His circumstances didn’t look very good. All other babies were being killed; here he was floating down the river, In a little basket, In an ark, In a place of safety. In a vessel God had formed for Him. Water proof, made to float and not sink. God spoke to the little current, Push the basket over here. He didn’t only control the birth, and the placing, of the baby in the basket. He was speaking to the elements to do, as he wanted them to do, in order to get the basket where He wanted it to go. You are in a basket; you’re in a place in God. You are in an earthen vessel. He is speaking to the elements, I want that vessel here. God is bringing the circumstances your way, You’re going to be exactly where you are suppose to be. God is not going to let you go.
You have not yet accomplished what God has for you. The little basket floated along, carrying this little baby, with all the circumstances around him. Look like all odds were against Him. I, am going to raise Him up. I, am going to bring through Him a Law. He, is going to have an effect on all men. In order to do so there are circumstances He must experience, There are things He must go through.
He had another man with great power, holding God’s people captive. This little baby grew up, and went to that man and said, “let them go.” God had this vessel with authority, but would not let the vessel make his own decision. God, hardened his heart. You are not going to control someone else’s life, nor change circumstance. God is the one who is in complete control. I am not aware of any weakness in God. I am not talking about a God unreachable. I am not talking about a God in some mystic place, hiding himself. I am talking about a God you can know. He is the all in all. Jesus said “Father make them one as we are one.” I believe it when He said, “I come to make my abode in you.” I am learning real quick, not to question circumstances, or question why. I thank God, because I know every little current in the ocean, is not controlled by the moon. It is controlled, by the power of our Father. Every thing that is, or ever will be. He is not a god off in the distances, you are in the midst of Him. His bosom, is your dwelling place. He said I, will not withhold any good thing from you. This God, this creator, has you in His hand. Isn’t it wonderful you go with God, and He goes with you. His hand, guided you to this place. Sit, you down to hear a message today. He, is unveiling himself. Let us see Him, as He is. Let us walk in the reality, He is Christ today. The now God. Like Moses we say, I can’t do these things I stutter. God, overlooks all those things. He overlooks all of our complaints, and weakness. He knows what we are going to do. Just as He knew what Moses was going to do. He prepared another vessel, to do what Moses said He couldn’t do. He didn’t want Moses to do what He said He couldn’t. He wanted someone else to fulfill that obligation. He knew the weakness, and He had a vessel ready. Ok Moses, I will send Aaron, He will be your mouthpiece. Here He comes now, Praise God right on time. Moses, I am going to make you god to Pharaoh. Aaron, will be your mouthpiece.
Praise God, He cause things to happen around us. He, can bring it all to light. You cry out MY God, how are you going to do this? How are you going to bring all this world, back unto harmony? How are you going to make my troubles go away, when they are so heavy? You know what He says? “I have already made a way of escape. I sent an open door. I have prepared a way for you.” But God I can’t, I can’t. We have all kind of I can’t, God knows every one of the I can’t. He knows you can’t, because He didn’t let you. But if I sent you, You would have done it. You see God is in control of all things. From the very minute microscopic things we can’t see. To things so small there isn’t a microscope, strong enough to see it. He makes it a god over its circumstance, Think of it! A little germ on a pin, point of a needle, Is god over His circumstances. We look at something and say, that is not God, That couldn’t be God! We say no, no, no; God is not in that at all. And God is standing in the middle of it, like the noon day sun. He says “I AM.” Beside me there is no God. Out of His own substance every thing that is, came into being. He is not going to divide Himself; neither is He going to lose any member. None of His substance shall be lost.
