JESUS-all about Him (THE MAN WITH THE BURING EYES) 11-11-18

VIDEO JESUS IS 2

PROPHETIC WORD FROM MIKE BICKLE: We stand at the crossroads of history. I urged you to prayerfully read the entire contents of this letter, as I am gripped with the rare urgency in my spirit. Opportunities for revival and spiritual breakthrough exist at almost incomprehensible levels along toxic distractions and soul numbing passivity. Cultural decay is dragging our young people into the gutters of oppression and perversion. War on the saints is escalating as a nations heave in the throes of crisis, birth pains, political correctness. Even so I am filled with hope! If we lean into Jesus, on his terms revival could be more swiftly than a raging windswept grass fire at the height of summer. These are true historic days.
However, to be properly position we must take a hard look in the mirror. Too much of our charismatic rhetoric has become both anemic and insufficient relative to the coming storm. Charismatic conferences have been wonderful and useful for many years, but now risk missing the point entirely if they are not deeply attune to the whispering voice of the Holy Spirit. When the cloud of fire disrupt camp to move us into a new territory, we must follow. Times and season of change: if we discern the spirits leading in this we are compelled to obey even if it requires disruption.
I am convinced that we stand on the precipice of a new era in prayer Prophetic, and missions movement. I want to boldly but tenderly say our house is on fire. I mean our nation, the church, society itself. I’m not OK with this and I certainly do not speak in a critical or in a gloating tone. As a shepherd, accountable to God, I feel burdened to speak the truth that I perceive. So let me be even more plan. For years I have said trouble is coming. Now I feel I must say differently: trouble is here. This means the days and years ahead will be of a different caliber of difficulty and complexity then anything we’ve ever known in the past. The new normal will not look like the heyday of the 80s and the 90s. It will be more challenging than people expect but the kingdom opportunities are far beyond what we can imagine.
I need to be very clear on this: nobody has done anything wrong. Yet incrementally, I feel we’ve missed the mark by leaning more on the brilliant marquees then on the man with the burning eyes. This year we are deliberately returning to the mystery of what if? What if God interrupts our plans? What is the Holy Spirit took over? What if we lavish or affection and attention on Him above all of the concerns? What if we become consumed with the one thing all over again? We’re going to plan around the supreme goal and take our chances. Rather than exulting human personalities and celebrity voices, we are deliberately re-centering around the consuming reality of Jesus. His agenda for planet earth His ownership. If we wanna everything God would give the human spirit in this hour of history, a short term, conference buzz can do longer suffice.
I urge you not to miss the signals that the Holy Spirit is giving the church in this hour. These days are great f high transition. God is speaking, but His whisper to demands revelation and unique focus. Voluntarily choose to adjust your life’s Signal-to-noise ratio. The global prayer movement is entering into it’s next critical phase, going far beyond the theater of an event into the Father’s deep desire for total supremacy of his Son to be known among the nations and to raise up a close knit family who deeply values and love one another.

Gal 3:1 You crazy Galatians! Did someone put a hex on you? Have you taken leave of your senses? Something crazy has happened, for it’s obvious that you no longer have the crucified Jesus in clear focus in your lives. His sacrifice on the Cross was certainly set before you clearly enough. MSG

Rev 2:4 But I have this [one charge to make] against you: that you have left (abandoned) the love that you had at first [you have deserted Me, your first love].

1 John 2:1 MY LITTLE children, I write you these things so that you may not violate God’s law and sin.

1 JN 2:1 You are my dear children, and I write these things to you so that you won’t sin. But if anyone does sin, we continually have a forgiving Redeemer who is face-to-face with the Father. Jesus Christ, the Righteous One.

When He had by offering Himself accomplished our cleansing of sins and riddance of guilt, He sat down at the right hand of the divine Majesty on high, MP

RO 5:11 And even more than that, we overflow with triumphant joy in our new relationship of living in harmony with God—all because of Jesus Christ! TPT

¹⁶ And this free-flowing gift imparts to us much more than what was given to us through the one who sinned. For because of one transgression, we are all facing a death sentence with a verdict of “Guilty!” But this gracious gift leaves us free from our many failures and brings us into the perfect righteousness of God—acquitted with the words “Not guilty!”

¹⁷ Death once held us in its grip, and by the blunder of one man, death reigned as king over humanity.

2 COR 8:9 For you have experienced the extravagant grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that although he was infinitely rich, he impoverished himself for our sake, so that by his poverty, we could become rich beyond measure. TPT

Gal 2:16 We know very well that we are not set right with God by rule-keeping but only through personal faith in Jesus Christ. How do we know? We tried it — and we had the best system of rules the world has ever seen!

AMP

Heb 13:8 For Jesus doesn’t change — yesterday, today, tomorrow, he’s always totally himself.

9 Don’t be lured away from him by the latest speculations about him. The grace of Christ is the only good ground for life. Products named after Christ don’t seem to do much for those who buy them. MSG

1 John 5:20 And we [have seen and] know [positively] that the Son of God has [actually] come to this world and has given us understanding and insight [progressively] to perceive (recognize) and come to know better and more clearly Him Who is true; and we are in Him Who is true — in His Son Jesus Christ (the Messiah). This [Man] is the true God and Life eternal.

HIS GOODNESS LASTS FOREVER 11-9-18 VIDEO

Goodness How God describes Himself. God has a treasure of good for His own. He indeed treats His children differently from those who are not. Graciously, joyful, kindly, loving, merry, most, pleasant, pleasure, precious, prosperity, wealth, welfare, “glad” heart. GOOD-goodness, integrity: does good and kindness

It is He (Father God) who wear His goodness like a royal robe around Him and He covers us with that. When Moses asked to see the Lord in His glory he saw His goodness. The Lord came down from heaven and even though Moses face was hidden in the cleft of the rock. He came down and stood beside him and showed Himself to Moses while Moses stood upon the Rock.

Ex 33:19 And God said, I will make all My goodness pass before you, and I will proclaim My name, THE LORD, before you; for I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show mercy and loving-kindness on whom I will show mercy and loving-kindness.  

20 But, He said, You can not see My face, for no man shall see Me and live.

21 And the Lord said, Behold, there is a place beside Me, and you shall stand upon the rock,

22 And while My glory passes by, I will put you in a cleft of the rock and cover you with My hand until I have passed by.   AMP

▼▼▼

Ex 33:19 God said, “I will make my Goodness pass right in front of you; I’ll call out the name, God, right before you. I’ll treat well whomever I want to treat well and I’ll be kind to whomever I want to be kind.”

20 God continued, “But you may not see my face. No one can see me and live.”

21 God said, “Look, here is a place right beside me. Put yourself on this rock.

22 When my Glory passes by, I’ll put you in the cleft of the rock and cover you with my hand until I’ve passed by. MSG

2 Cor 3:10 Indeed, in view of this fact, what once had splendor [the glory of the Law in the face of Moses] has come to have no splendor at all, because of the overwhelming glory that exceeds and excels it [the glory of the Gospel in the face of Jesus Christ]. AMP

Heb 4:2 For indeed we have had the glad tidings [Gospel of God] proclaimed to us just as truly as they [the Israelites of old did when the good news of deliverance from bondage came to them]; but the message they heard did not benefit them, because it was not mixed with faith (with the leaning of the entire personality on God in absolute trust and confidence in His power, wisdom, and goodness) by those who heard it; neither were they united in faith with the ones [Joshua and Caleb] who heard (did believe). AMP

RO 2:4 Do the riches of his extraordinary kindness make you take him for granted and despise him? Haven’t you experienced how kind and understanding he has been to you? Don’t mistake his tolerance for acceptance. Do you realize that all the wealth of his extravagant kindness is meant to melt your heart and lead you into repentance TPT

Jer 15:19 Therefore thus says the Lord [to Jeremiah]: If you return [and give up this mistaken tone of distrust and despair], then I will give you again a settled place of quiet and safety, and you will be My minister; and if you separate the precious from the vile [cleansing your own heart from unworthy and unwarranted suspicions concerning God’s faithfulness], you shall be My mouthpiece. [But do not yield to them.] Let them return to you — not you to [the people].

2 Thess 1:11 Because we know that this extraordinary day is just ahead, we pray for you all the time — pray that our God will make you fit for what he’s called you to be, pray that he’ll fill your good ideas and acts of faith with his own energy so that it all amounts to something. MSG

2 Thess 1:11 With this in view we constantly pray for you, that our God may deem and count you worthy of [your] calling and [His] every gracious purpose of goodness, and with power may complete in [your] every particular work of faith (faith which is that leaning of the whole human personality on God in absolute trust and confidence in His power, wisdom, and goodness).

In a course of one day “Truth” stood before the high priest, the Sanhedrin and finally before Pilate. “The Truth” was lied about, abused, spat upon, and put to death on the cross. But nothing and no one could stop it! Jesus is “the Truth”. “The Truth” has a name, Jesus. So “The Truth” is not a bunch of ideas, it is a person. No one gets to the father without Truth.   The spirit of truth leads all man to him whose name is “the Truth“. Everything that is in the written word or the rhema word is truth because Jesus is Truth.

NO FEAR IN LOVE 1014-18 VIDEO LOVE VS FEAR 3

Fear has always been a stronghold of people. But God‘s love conquers fear, terror, and all oppression. Fear is a clear chain reaction in the brain that starts with stress and ends with release of chemicals that cause a racing heart. Fear is the result of perceived danger. Fear is agreeing with darkness.

Love is a top characteristic of God. The Bible says God is love. God has endowed us with the capacity for love.

1 John 4:16 And we know (understand, recognize, are conscious of, by observation and by experience) and believe (adhere to and put faith in and rely on) the love God cherishes for us. God is love, and he who dwells and continues in love dwells and continues in God, and God dwells and continues in him.

17 In this [union and communion with Him] love is brought to completion and attains perfection with us, that we may have confidence for the day of judgment [with assurance and boldness to face Him], because as He is, so are we in this world. AMP

▼▼▼

1 JOHN 4:16 We have come into an intimate experience with God’s love, and we trust in the love he has for us. God is love! Those who are living in love are living in God, and God lives through them.

¹⁷ By living in God, love has been brought to its full expression in us so that we may fearlessly face the day of judgment, because all that Jesus now is, so are we in this world.  TPT

1 John 4:18 There is no fear in love [dread does not exist], but full-grown (complete, perfect) love turns fear out of doors and expels every trace of terror! For fear brings with it the thought of punishment, and [so] he who is afraid has not reached the full maturity of love [is not yet grown into love’s complete perfection].

19 We love Him, because He first loved us. AMP

▼▼▼

1 John 4:18 There is no room in love for fear. Well-formed love banishes fear. Since fear is crippling, a fearful life — fear of death, fear of judgment — is one not yet fully formed in love.

19 We, though, are going to love — love and be loved. First we were loved, now we love. He loved us first. MSG PUNISHMENT-REJECTION

RO 8:35 Who could ever separate us from the endless love of God’s Anointed One? Absolutely no one! For nothing in the universe has the power to diminish his love toward us. Troubles, pressures, and problems are unable to come between us and heaven’s love. What about persecutions, deprivations, dangers, and death threats? No, for they are all impotent to hinder omnipotent love,

³⁶ even though it is written: All day long we face death threats for your sake, God.
We are considered to be nothing more than sheep to be slaughtered

³⁷ Yet even in the midst of all these things, we triumph over them all, for God has made us to be more than conquerors, and his demonstrated love is our glorious victory over everything!

³⁸ So now I live with the confidence that there is nothing in the universe with the power to separate us from God’s love. I’m convinced that his love will triumph over death, life’s troubles, fallen angels, or dark rulers in the heavens. There is nothing in our present or future circumstances that can weaken his love.

³⁹ There is no power above us or beneath us—no power that could ever be found in the universe that can distance us from God’s passionate love, which is lavished upon us through our Lord Jesus, the Anointed One! TPT

PS 23:1 The Lord is my best friend and my shepherd. I always have more than enough.
² He offers a resting place for me in his luxurious love. His tracks take me to an oasis of peace, the quiet brook of bliss.
³ That’s where he restores and revives my life He opens before me pathways to God’s pleasure and leads me along in his footsteps of righteousness so that I can bring honor to his name.
⁴ Lord, even when your path takes me through the valley of deepest darkness, fear will never conquer me, for you already have! You remain close to me and lead me through it all the way. Your authority is my strength and my peace. The comfort of your love takes away my fear. I’ll never be lonely, for you are near.
⁵ You become my delicious feast even when my enemies dare to fight. You anoint me with the fragrance of your Holy Spirit; you give me all I can drink of you until my heart overflows.
⁶ So why would I fear the future? For your goodness and love pursue me all the days of my life. Then afterward, when my life is through, I’ll return to your glorious presence to be forever with you!

16 “But you have God-blessed eyes — eyes that see! And God-blessed ears — ears that hear!
