The Strength of Light
The essence of light is to judge corruption in us. The word of God is a two-edged sword that destroys every opposition (man). As we see the face of God, we lose everything of man in us. (Acts 5:3, Heb. 4:12)
As believers, we must not be in a hurry to shine; this is because we cannot shine forth God's glory as we ought without mortality being taken away from us.
We cannot touch the glory of God until we arise, and this cannot be done arise except we lay down our lives/die. (Isa. 60:1-2)
As we behold the face of God, heaven exposes hidden depths in us that can oppose His light. We must first develop in our stature and be established, laying a foundation that cannot pass away.
Things done in haste are corruptible and cannot stay when the light of God is shining. The foundation of a soul must be rightly laid in God to bear His weight; it is raising that can perform this, not anointing. God is raising a people who can bear His weight.
Light is always a preparation to show forth the magnitude of the glory of God. When gross darkness has covered a generation, we need to be raised in judgment to address certain issues in our society. This is the time to press into the day of God. (Isa. 60:1-2)
In this season, there is a spiritual infiltration of darkness lowered from the second heaven. Therefore, we are not meant to argue with darkness but to shine.
We, however, cannot shine unless we are brought into His rest and reign with Him. The only hope for the church is for us to arise and lay hold on the light of God.
Darkness must be judged in us; we must love light. Our vision must be entirely processed by light. The emphasis of the Spirit in this season is for us to let the light shine forth from us that all men might see and turn to God. (Isa. 60:3)
Church gatherings or meetings where the focus is to 'get' God are no longer common in our days; rather, men only gather in churches for mundane things.
Therefore, we must remain faithful to this course of getting God and He will use our faithfulness to draw in many. The Spirit is turning hearts to the waters as the water level is rising and will rise to overflow. (Ez. 47:1-5)
To take heed is to be discerning; this is a season where we cannot afford to be complacent as we must try spirits, not words or charisma. There are many rumblings in the body and in the world which are signs of the end. (Matt. 24:5-12, 1 Jhn 4:1)
Matthew 24 shows that iniquity is the subtle work of Satan that causes our love for God to wax cold; it compromises our love for God.
Iniquity helps fan man's desire for ministry. We must, however, continue in the salvation program for us to be able to overcome iniquity, this is an assurance that we will overcome the dragon. (Rev. 12:10-11)
The admittance of our errors is what works salvation in us. Repentance does not always have to do with sin, but with entrance into the kingdom. Truth delivers us from our former positions but sin nature configures the soul into a position. (Acts 3:19-21)
The restitution of all things is the reconstruction of our souls; this is what brings the glory of God to the earth and brings us into His reign.
The blueprint of our making is with God and must be downloaded for us to be reconstructed by the truth. The truth must confront and destroy former natures and veils; this is when we can showcase the kingdom of God and His glory.
It is the Spirit and the bride that must cry for God to come. The Spirit is the witness of the Father, but the bride must be awakened for the duo to cry.
We must relinquish our will to the Spirit; this is a death process that the bride must go through. It is by the daily process of dying that we are rid of flesh and filth to be given incorruptibility. (Rev. 21:2-4, 22:17)
The company of those who will be victors are those who are of no reputation. We must be converted and become like a lamb, tender in the spirit, and unable to resist the dealings of the Lord. God is raising a church that will be worthy to open the seals. (Rev. 5:9)
In the process of being made a bride, we will go through tears as self is being mutilated in us. The end is that we will overcome many enemies, even death.
The Zion church is not known for its strength in ministry, but in dying. This is the church that God is raising; a people who can stay for their enemies to be dealt with in them.
Our desire for God must transcend every other desire we have. Many spiritual dysfunctionalities we have and our strivings in the flesh are a result of our background and experiences. It is only the waters (the word of God) that can heal us of these dysfunctionalities.
