RESTORATION IS A PROCESS 9-12-21  VIDEO PROCESS OF RESTORATION 2

The definition of restoration is to receive back more than what the loss was to begin with. The church of Pentecost was born anew. They were too advanced and move forward beyond what was lost by Adam in the garden they were to go beyond anything that the law has commanded. And so they did. They were to regain the dominion on the earth as a sons of God by the power of the Holy Spirit and the resurrection power of Jesus Christ. So they did. And they handed things over to the next generation and on from there to us that are alive now. Sadly we seem to have gotten off the assignment of restoration and reconciliation. We are not currently pursuing the total fullness of Christ resurrection power. We are distracted by the world, by the politics, instead of pursuing the kingdom. Our restoration is to bear the image of the man from heaven.

Heb 6:1 THEREFORE LET us go on and get past the elementary stage in the teachings and doctrine of Christ (the Messiah), advancing steadily toward the completeness and perfection that belong to spiritual maturity. Let us not again be laying the foundation of repentance and abandonment of dead works (dead formalism) and of the faith [by which you turned] to God,

2 With teachings about purifying, the laying on of hands, the resurrection from the dead, and eternal judgment and punishment. [These are all matters of which you should have been fully aware long, long ago.]

3 If indeed God permits, we will [now] proceed [to advanced teaching]. AMP

HEB 6:1-3  Now is the time for us to progress beyond the basic message of Christand advance into perfection. The foundation has already been laid for us to build upon: turning away from our dead worksto embrace faith in God,

teaching about different baptisms, impartation by the laying on of hands, resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment.

So with Gods enablementwe will move on to deeper truths. TPT

Isa 58:8 Then shall your light break forth like the morning, and your healing (your restoration and the power of a new life) shall spring forth speedily; your righteousness (your rightness, your justice, and your right relationship with God) shall go before you [conducting you to peace and prosperity], and the glory of the Lord shall be your rear guard.  

9 Then you shall call, and the Lord will answer; you shall cry, and He will say, Here I am. If you take away from your midst yokes of oppression [wherever you find them], the finger pointed in scorn [toward the oppressed or the godly], and every form of false, harsh, unjust, and wicked speaking,   AMP

Acts 3:21 Whom heaven must receive [and retain] until the time for the complete restoration of all that God spoke by the mouth of all His holy prophets for ages past [from the most ancient time in the memory of man].  AMP

Acts 3:21 For the time being he must remain out of sight in heaven until everything is restored to order again just the way God, through the preaching of his holy prophets of old, said it would be. MSG

ACTS 3:21 For he must remain in heaven until the restoration of all thingshas taken place, fulfilling everything that God said long ago through his holy prophets.   TPT

Joel 2:25 "I'll make up for the years of the locust, the great locust devastation Locusts savage, locusts deadly, fierce locusts, locusts of doom, That great locust invasion I sent your way.

26 You'll eat your fill of good food. You'll be full of praises to your God, The God who has set you back on your heels in wonder. Never again will my people be despised.

27 You'll know without question that I'm in the thick of life with Israel, That I'm your God, yes, your God, the one and only real God. Never again will my people be despised.  

28 "And that's just the beginning: After that "I will pour out my Spirit on every kind of people: Your sons will prophesy, also your daughters. Your old men will dream, your young men will see visions.

29 I'll even pour out my Spirit on the servants, men and women both.

30 I'll set wonders in the sky above and signs on the earth below: Blood and fire and billowing smoke,

31 the sun turning black and the moon blood-red, Before the Judgment Day of God,

the Day tremendous and awesome.

32 Whoever calls, 'Help, God!' gets help. On Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there will be a great rescue just as God said. Included in the survivors are those that God calls. MSG

Acts 1:6 So when they were assembled, they asked Him, Lord, is this the time when You will reestablish the kingdom and restore it to Israel?

7 He said to them, It is not for you to become acquainted with and know what time brings [the things and events of time and their definite periods] or fixed years and seasons (their critical niche in time), which the Father has appointed (fixed and reserved) by His own choice and authority and personal power.

8 But you shall receive power (ability, efficiency, and might) when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you shall be My witnesses in Jerusalem and all Judea and Samaria and to the ends (the very bounds) of the earth.  AMP

ACTS 1:6-8 Every time they were gathered together, they asked Jesus, Lord, is it now the time for you to free Israel and restore our kingdom?

He answered, The Father is the one who sets the fixed dates and the times of their fulfillment. You are not permitted to know the timing of all that he has prepared by his own authority.

But I promise you thisthe Holy Spirit will come upon you, and you will be seized with power.You will be my messengersto Jerusalem, throughout Judea, the distant provinceseven to the remotest places on earth! TPT

2 COR 5:19-20 Our ministry declares that Jesus did not act independently of his Father. God was present in Christ when he reconciled the total cosmos to himself. Deity and humanity embraced in him; the fallen state of mankind was deleted; their trespasses would no longer count against them! He now announces his friendship with every individual from within us!

20 The voice God has in Christ he now has in us; we are Gods ambassadors. Our lives exhibit the urgency of God to persuade everyone to realize the reconciliation of their redeemed identity.  MIRROR

2 COR 5:19-20 In other words, it was through the Anointed One that God was shepherding the world, not even keeping records of their transgressions, and he has entrusted to us the ministry of opening the door of reconciliation to God.

20 We are ambassadorsof the Anointed One who carry the message of Christ to the world, as though God were tenderly pleadingwith them directly through our lips. So we tenderly plead with you on Christs behalf, Turn back to God and be reconciled to him.  TPT

2 Cor 5:19  It was God [personally present] in Christ, reconciling and restoring the world to favor with Himself, not counting up and holding against [men] their trespasses [but cancelling them], and committing to us the message of reconciliation (of the restoration to favor).

20 So we are Christ's ambassadors, God making His appeal as it were through us. We [as Christ's personal representatives] beg you for His sake to lay hold of the divine favor [now offered you] and be reconciled to God.  AMP

ROM 8:19-24 The entire universe is standing on tiptoe, yearning to see the unveiling of Gods glorioussons and daughters!

20 For against its will the universe itself has had to endure the empty futilityresulting from the consequences of human sin. But now, with eager expectation,

21 all creation longs for freedom from its slavery to decay and to experience with us the wonderful freedom coming to Gods children.

22 To this day we are aware of the universal agony and groaning of creation, as if it were in the contractions of labor for childbirth.

23 And its not just creation. We who have already experienced the firstfruits of the Spirit also inwardly groan as we passionately long to experience our full status as Gods sons and daughtersincluding our physical bodies being transformed.

24 For this is the hope of our salvation. But hope means that we must trust and wait for what is still unseen. For why would we need to hope for something we already have? TPT   ↕↕↕

ROM 8:19 Our lives now represent the one event every creature anticipates with held breath, standing on tip-toe as it were to witness the unveiling of the sons of God. Can you hear the drum-roll?

20 Every creature suffered abuse through Adams fall; they were discarded like a squeezed-out orange. Creation did not volunteer to fall prey to the effect of the fall. Yet within this stark setting, hope prevails.

21 All creation knows that the glorious liberty of the sons of God sets the stage for their own release from decay.

23 We ourselves feel the grief echo of their groaning within us while we are ready to embrace the original blueprint also of our physical stature to the full consequence of sonship. What we already now participate in as first fruits of the spirit, will bloom into a full gathering of the harvest.    

24 For what we already experience confirms our hope and continues to fuel our expectation for what we still cannot see. In the final visible completeness of the harvest, hope has fulfilled its function.   MIRROR

1 COR 15:45-49 For it is written: The first man, Adam, became a living soul. The last Adambecame the life-giving Spirit.

46 However, the spiritual didnt come first. The natural precedes the spiritual.

47 The first man was from the dust of the earth; the second Man is Yahweh, from the realm of heaven.

48 The first one, made from dust, has a race of people just like him, who are also made from dust. The One sent from heaven has a race of heavenly people who are just like him.

49 Once we carried the likeness of the man of dust, but now let uscarry the likeness of the man of heaven. TPT

PHIL 3:10 Oh to comprehend the dynamic of his resurrection! His resurrection is evidence of our righteousness! In the revelation of Gods economy of inclusion, I actually co-suffered with him and co-died together with Christ!  

11 When confronted with death, I actually come face to face with my own resurrection!

12 To know even as I have always been known! 

13 I am not boasting about this new-found-righteousness as if I came up with the idea; on the contrary, I have distanced myself from everything that the do it yourself -system of the law of works and willpower previously represented in my reference; now I am fully engaged with that too!

14 I have the prize of mankinds redeemed innocence in full view; just like a champion athlete in the public games I refuse to be distracted by anything else. God has invited us in Christ, to lift up our eyes and realize our identity in him.   MIRROR

PHIL 3:10-14 And I continually long to know the wonders of Jesus and to experience the overflowing power of his resurrection working in me. I will be one with him in his sufferings and become like him in his death.

11 Only then will I be able to experience complete oneness with him in his resurrection from the realm of death.

12 I admit that I havent yet acquired the absolute fullness that Im pursuing, but I run with passion into his abundance so that I may reach the purpose for which Christ Jesus laid hold of me to make me his own.

13 I dont depend on my own strength to accomplish this; however I do have one compelling focus: I forget all of the past as I fasten my heart to the future instead.

14 I run straight for the divine invitation of reaching the heavenly goal and gaining the victory-prize through the anointing of Jesus. TPT

REV 22:2-10 The river was flowing in the middle of the street of the city, and on either side of the river was the Tree of Life, with its twelve kinds of ripe fruit according to each month of the year. The leaves of the Tree of Life are for the healing of the nations.

And every curse will be broken and no longer exist, for the throne of God and of the Lamb will be there in the city.His loving servants will servehim;

they will always see his face, and his name will be on their foreheads.

Night will be no more. They will never need the light of the sun or a lamp, because the Lord God will shine on them. And they will reign as kings forever and ever!

6 Then the angel said to me, These words are entirely trustworthy and true, for the Lord, the God of the spirits of the prophets, has sent his angel to show his loving servants what must occur swiftly. The Testimony of Jesus

Behold, I come quickly! Wonderfully blessed is the onewho carefully guards the words of the prophecy of this book!

I, John, am the one who heard and saw these things, and when I heard and saw it all, I fell facedown to worship the messenger who showed me these things.

But he said to me, Dont do it! I am but a fellow servant with you and your brothers, the prophets, and with those who cling to the words of this book. Worship God!

10 And he said to me, Dont keep secret the prophetic words of this book, for the time is near.  TPT
