Word 3/23/08

The Word;
Faith pleases Me, those who are not ashamed to ask (the faith in them), for they have swept and garnished their house. I will enter and abide, yet those who turn back, who put Me to open shame (in the sight of man), to the test (God) again, I will reject. I will have mercy on who I will, but those who eat and drink unworthily shall not abide in the congregation of the righteous.

To bring a gift of praise to My presence is not without notice. But to leave undone weightier matters goes before your praise. It causes your offering (as Cain) to be unacceptable and unclean. Do what is right and holy before Me. Do My will, then I will receive your gift, to be found worthy in My presence, and acceptable of My children.

To neglect or leave undone what you know is My will is to tempt Me to anger. In times past grace was extended. But, I tell you this, those who know to do My will and do not will be rejected and take their place with those who do wickedly, I judge a righteous judgment.

Those who dismiss truth as unnecessary will take their place with liars and the twice dead. For I am truth, I am the way, I am life, what part would you deny and be whole? The day of mercy ends and judgment begins, who will stand? Only those who worship Me in Spirit and in Truth, only those who walk after My Spirit, only those who bear the light of Truth and rejoice in knowledge, by wisdom. This is the way, walk in it. Look to My Holy Spirit to reveal all, daily stand before Me for your provision of life (daily bread, every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God). Gather together to strengthen one another. Reject the wild hair, the untamed, those without discipline. For they will break the band of fellowship of My Spirit. Hear Me, I give to you wisdom and understanding.

Comment;
The Lord has been giving me understanding in comparing; those who eat and drink communion unworthily, those who are sick and dying in churches, not discerning the Holiness of the gift, or the meaning of the rehearsal, the meaning of the action. To those who partake of the words the Father speaks by the Holy Spirit unworthily, not doing the will of God, not living holy lives worthy to be the temple of the Holy Ghost. They also eat unworthily not discerning the body, who and what they are baptised into. The candle stand is about to be removed, the light of truth, preparation of God before strong delusion will be sent. Blessing or laying on of hands to impart the Baptism of the Holy Spirit has long been vacant in many churches, and soon will be gone completely, the time of mercy and grace on the earth completed. Those entering tribulation with out, will not have. Those who the have Holy Spirit but are unworthy, what they have will be taken away. This is one of the judgment that will begin in the "House of God", the "Body of Christ", the "Bride" who is being purified. (Those who are stumbling only have a short time to repent and do God's will. God will have mercy on the lame, not those who have!)

During the gathering as we worshiped we sang a song that said, "I see a generation". The Holy brought to mind, not in word or vision, just understanding, that this generation of believers, those who are found worthy to escape the wrath to come, are purposed, called, chosen and anointed for His, the Father's pleasure. A Royal Priesthood, a Chosen Generation set apart for the Glory of God, they will have names better than son and daughters. They are to be keepers of the bride. Not bearing children themselves, but perfecting those who will remain alive till the return of Jesus, Lord of all. Those who will perish from the face of the earth unnecessarily because they say Lord, Lord and do not do His will, do so because of their own unbelief. In spite of what men say and think, not because of, God has a faithful following, of His doing, and it is marvelous in His sight, and ours. God has set in our midst all (apostles, prophets, teachers, workers of miracles, etc) that is necessary for the perfecting of His saints. Jesus himself is our Good Shepherd, the Holy Spirit is His voice. it is up to us to listen, hear, believe and do the will of God.
