Apostolic Foundational Doctrine
SEEKING AND BEHOLDING THE FACE OF GOD
Seeing the Face of Jesus is Commanded in 1Cor 13:12
Learn to Stay in His Presence daily!
Jeremiah 29:13 “You will seek Me and FIND Me, when you seek Me with ALL your heart.”
Introduction: The purpose of this Bible doctrine is to help you hear the Voice of Jesus and learn to See His Face. Seeing His Face was commanded as an act of repentance in the O.T. and seeing His Face is commanded in the N.T.
As a result of hearing His Voice, you will learn to obey His Voice and do what He says to do! Christians hearing His Voice, are the only hope for America's future and by faith by doing what He commands each Christian to do. Jesus said, "My Sheep Hear My Voice," and "If you Love Me, You Will Obey Me."
In the next life, in New Jerusalem, Christians will also behold the Face of Jesus and the Face of His Father forever. The time to learn and practice seeing the Face of Jesus is today, as promised and COMMANDED in 1Cor 13:12! Moses spoke face-to-Face with God and Jesus, and today we should spiritually work to see His Face daily.
Revivals are very good, but regularly attending church is critically necessary for learning spiritual body ministry and for developing spiritual fruits and is important for understanding the basics of Christianity. Jesus said, "I am the Life," and to have a lifestyle of seeing His Face is commanded for all believers and is offered to all those who seek Him.
Jesus said, "you must be born from above" so as to spiritually see and enter the Kingdom of God John 3:1-21.
In Matthew 28:18 Jesus has been granted ALL authority over Heaven and Earth. Christians having His spiritual authority in Jesus is very good, but using His authority from God and Jesus as He desires so to enter the Kingdom of God as a daily lifestyle directive is required to fellowship with Him and be changed into His "image and likeness," and be changed from "glory to glory."
Christians must learn to be "Led by the Spirit." John 1:12 "But to all who believed Him and accepted Him, He gave the [spiritual] right to become children of God. [Note: Biblical Greek exousia, "authority" of God and Jesus is granted to become sons of God, however, it must be constantly used daily to become a "son of God" and to have the strength to endure to the end so to [ultimately] inherit eternal Life!] 13 They are reborn—not with a physical birth resulting from human passion or plan of man, but a birth that comes [from above] from God."
Jesus said His Father is The Holy Spirit (Holy Spirit Fathered Jesus in Luke 1:32-35) who was and is God.
Babies or infants in their mothers' wombs do not have as much required of them as those more mature Christians have learned to follow the leading of the Holy Spirit and to participate in spiritual "Love Feasts," where "God is Love," at "The Table of the Lord," symbolized by the bread and wine communion of the eucharist. The Bible commands to be "filled to overflowing with the Holy Spirit" and prohibits being drunk with physical wine (Ephesians 5:18).
"For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required," Luke 12:48 KJV. More mature Christians are expected to produce more spiritual "fruits of the Spirit," and to learn to obey the leading of the Holy Spirit, and to do more whatever our Heavenly Father tells each one to do.
Most Christians learn to be led by the Holy Spirit, however "to whom more is given, more is required." Therefore we are to grow up, mature spiritually, and learn to "See His Face" in Jesus" (1Cor 13:12).
As we see His Face, we are changed from "glory to glory" into His Image and likeness (John 17:22).
Nu 6:25 "The LORD make His Face shine on you, And be gracious to you."
John 17:5 "And now, Father, glorify Me in your presence with the ...
And now, Father, glorify Me in your presence with the glory I had with you before the world began."
John 17:22 "I have given them the glory You gave Me, so they may be One as We are One." To be "One" as Jesus and His Father are "One" is the prayer and desire of Jesus and of our Heavenly Father. Jesus has given His Glory to the Church.
Jesus said His Glory was critical for the life of the Church, His Glory is given for His Bride to have, so to be changed into His "Image and Likeness" Genesis 1:26. "He did this to present her to Himself as a GLORIOUS church without a spot or wrinkle or any other blemish. Instead, she will be holy and without fault."
Pray to evangelize and complete the plan of God and Christ that the world may believe: John 17:20-23 "I am not asking on behalf of them alone, but also on behalf of those who will believe in Me through their message. That all of them may be One, as You, Father, are in Me, and I am in You. May they also be in Us, so that the world may believe that You sent Me. I have given them [His Church] the glory You gave Me, so that they may be One as We are one. I in them and You in Me that they may be perfectly united, ["all in one accord"] so that the world may know that You sent Me and have loved them just as You have loved Me."
"Love believes all things." When we are in the presence of the glory of Jesus, think, conceptualize, believe each other as being spiritually "perfect" as Jesus said, "Be PERFECT as your Heavenly Father is PERFECT." This prayer helps others (Mt 18:18-20), to spiritually "touch and agree" in each other's presence, "two or three gathered in the Name of Jesus," so for all to repent of the spiritual weights of sin and all obtain the benefit experience the spiritual "weights" of sin lift off.
Believing each other is "perfect" as our Heavenly Father is perfect (Matthew 5:48) helps releases each one in prayer in the presence of the GLORY of Jesus where Christians gather in His Name, to repent of sins and have those sins to gradually "lift off" and spiritual burdens lifted. "Love believes all things." Believing each other is perfect, despite the fact we are less than perfect, is key to learning to dwell with Jesus and our Heavenly Father and preparing our spirits to be the "Glorious Church" Ephesians 5:27. Give Christians the "benefit of the doubt" and believe they are "perfect" as Jesus commanded so to help them repent of sin and obtain the benefits of seeing His Face and obtaining grace and blessings.
Phil. 3:12 "Not as though I had already attained, either were already PERFECT: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus."
John writes, God lives in us, His love also lives in and is perfected in us (1 John 4:12) and His Holy Spirit dwells in us (1 John 4:13).
2Ch 30:9 “For if you return to the LORD, your brothers and your sons will find compassion before those who led them captive and will return to this land. For the LORD your God is gracious and compassionate, and will not turn His face away from you if you return to Him.”
Jesus said, His yoke was "easy" and His burden was "light." "Love believes all things." Believe the saints in the congregation with the glory of the Lord Jesus being manifest are all wanting to be holy, to be "perfect as your Heavenly Father is perfect." Expect Jesus to keep His Holy Word and expect Him to lift the weight of sin to spiritually lift off as each saint repents of sin in their lives.
Philippians 2:11 "And every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Therefore, my beloved, just as you have always obeyed, not only in my presence, but now even more in my absence, CONTINUE TO WORK OUT YOUR SALVATION with fear and trembling. For it is GOD WHO WORKS IN YOU to will and to act on behalf of His Good Pleasure."
Ephesians 2:8-10 "For by GRACE you have been saved through FAITH. And this is not your own doing; it is the GIFT of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them." "FAITH WITHOUT WORKS IS DEAD." Failure to put legs/actions with your prayers may result in needless loss of lives, property, loss of salvation and loss of eternal life for others that Jesus wishes you to herald and proclaim. Jesus expects Christians to be "led by the Spirit" and when "Prompted by the Holy Spirit" speak of your witness and testimony is of Jesus.
Faith without Good Deeds Is spiritually Dead and will NOT result in having eternal life unless one is an innocent infant who does not know better...
The thief being crucified with Jesus did not have time to be baptized in the Name of Jesus (Col 3:17) and have time to mature and become conformed "into His image and likeness." Most Christians have time to pray today to spiritually grow, mature, see His Face and be "changed from glory to glory" while in His presence in His Glory.
Isa 59:2 "But your iniquities have made a separation between you and your God, And your sins have hidden His Face from you so that He does not hear." Our unrepentant hearts and sins result in Jesus hiding His Face and His Love from us!
Mic 3:4 "Then they will cry out to the LORD, But He will not answer them. Instead, He will hide His Face from them at that time Because they have practiced evil deeds."
James 2:14-17 "What good is it, dear brothers and sisters, if you say you have faith but don’t show it by your actions? Can that kind of faith save anyone? Suppose you see a brother or sister who has no food or clothing, and you say, “Good-bye and have a good day; stay warm and eat well”—but then you don’t give that person any food or clothing. What good does that do? So you see, faith by itself isn’t enough. Unless it produces good deeds, it is [spiritually dead and useless."
Therefore being spiritually "PERFECT" is fulfilling the plan and purpose of The WORD of God for believers to be changed into His Image and likeness were spoken as God and Christ's objective at the beginning of Heaven and Earth, written in Genesis 1:26.
1Cor 15:28 [Our Heavenly] "Father is all in all and is to be expressed as All in All throughout eternity."
1Corinthians 15:28 "When he has done this, then the Son Himself ... ... did subject to Him the All things, that God may be All in All."
Setting our "spiritual eyes" (Eph 1:18) upon the Face of Jesus pleases God and returns some of His Love that He lavished upon us today and forever, in Jesus' Name, Amen.
Ephesians 1:17-23 "I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know Him better. I pray that the EYES OF YOUR HEART may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which He has called you, the riches of His Glorious inheritance in His holy people, and His incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is the same as the mighty strength He exerted when He raised Christ from the dead and seated Him at His Right Hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every name that is invoked, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. And God placed all things under His feet and appointed Him to be head over everything for the church, which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills everything in every way." The Father in eternity in New Jerusalem will make use of everything we expressed of Him in this life as He becomes "All in All" Amen.
In the O.T. God's Commands were the same, Amos 5:4 "Seek My Face and Live!" Hallelujah! Failure of Christians to "Seek My Face" will result in suffering in this life and possible premature spiritual and physical death.
Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and you shall be saved!
Acts 2:40-41 "With many other words he [Peter] testified, and he urged them, “Be saved from this corrupt generation.” Those who embraced his gospel message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to the believers that day."
Acts 2:22-25 “People of Israel, listen! God publicly endorsed Jesus the Nazarene by doing powerful miracles, wonders, and signs through him, as you well know. But God knew what would happen, and his prearranged plan was carried out when Jesus was betrayed. With the help of lawless Gentiles, you nailed him to a cross and killed him. But God released Him from the horrors of death and raised Him back to Life, for death could not keep Him in its grip. King David said this about Him:"
"‘I see that the LORD is always with me.
I will not be shaken, for He is right beside me.
Acts 2:26 "No wonder my heart is glad,
and my tongue shouts his praises!
My body rests in hope.
27For you will not leave my soul among the dead
nor allow your Holy One to rot in the grave.
28You have shown me the way of Life,
and you will fill me with the joy of your presence.’"
29“Dear brothers, think about this! You can be sure that the patriarch David wasn’t referring to himself, for he died and was buried, and his tomb is still here among us.
30But he [David] was a prophet, and he knew God had promised with an oath that one of David’s own descendants would sit on his throne. 31King David was looking into the future and speaking of the Messiah’s Resurrection. He was saying that God would not leave Him among the dead nor allow His body to rot in the grave."
32“God raised Jesus from the dead, and we are all witnesses of this. 33Now he is exalted to the place of highest honor in heaven, at God’s right hand. And the Father, as he had promised, gave him the Holy Spirit to pour out upon us, just as you see and hear today. Acts 2:34 For David himself never ascended into heaven, yet he said,
‘The LORD said to my Lord,
“Sit in the place of honor at My right hand
35until I humble your enemies,
making them a footstool under your feet.”’g
36“So let everyone in Israel know for certain that God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, to be both Lord and Messiah!”
37Peter’s words pierced their hearts, and they said to him and to the other apostles, “Brothers, what should we do?”
38Peter replied, “Each of you must repent of your sins and turn to God, and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. Then you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39This promise is to you, and to your children, and even to the Gentiles—all who have been called by the Lord our God.” 40Then Peter continued preaching for a long time, strongly urging all his listeners, “SAVE YOURSELVES FROM THIS CROOKED GENERATION!”
Ephesians 2:8 "For by GRACE you have been SAVED through FAITH. And this is not by your own doing; it is the gift of God, 9not a result of your works [righteous accomplishments], so that no one may boast. 10For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them."
Although babies in and those out of their mother's womb must evidence their faith God has given to them, with love for joy and maybe "leap for joy" as John the Baptist did in His mother at the presence of the Holy Spirit to be saved.
Scriptural life plans for believers in "The Way."
Here are some listed steps required for maturing Christian believers in Jesus Christ who have the goal to mature and "be Perfect:"
Step 1.) Be Born Again, Born from Above by Heavenly Father.
Step 2.) Be Led by the Holy Spirit.
Step 3.) Seek the Face of God and Live 2Chron 7:14.
Step 4.) Hear the Voice of Jesus in your spirit and in your heart.
Step 5.) Do what the Voice of Jesus tells you to do. Your obedience and action are required!
Ac 4:18 "And when they had summoned them, they commanded them not to speak or teach at all in the name of Jesus."
Ac 16:18 "She continued doing this for many days. But Paul was greatly annoyed, and turned and said to the spirit, “I command you in the Name of Jesus Christ to come out of her!” And it [the demon] came out [of her] at that very moment."
1Th 4:2 "For you know what commandments we gave you by the authority of the Lord Jesus."
2Th 3:6 "Now we Command you, brethren, in the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you keep away from every brother who leads an unruly life and not according to the tradition which you received from us."
2Th 3:12 "Now such persons we Command and exhort in the Lord Jesus Christ to work in quiet fashion and eat their own bread."
1Ti 1:1 "Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus according to the Commandment of God our Savior, and of Christ Jesus, who is our hope."
1Ti 6:14 "You keep the COMMANDMENT without stain or reproach until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ."
1John 3:23 "This is His COMMANDMENT, that we believe in the Name of His Son Jesus Christ, and Love one another, just as He Commanded us."
Keeping the Commandments of God and Jesus are required for maturing believers for salvation and required for the best possible future in the New Covenant:
Re 12:17 "So the dragon was enraged with the woman, and went off to make war with the rest of her children, who keep the COMMANDMENTS of God and hold to the testimony of Jesus." It is part of the Book of Job refining saints as Jesus had been by the "things He had suffered." So the end result is being "Perfect" as your Heavenly Father is Perfect.
Keeping the Commandments of God and Jesus are REQUIRED for maturing believers for salvation and for obtaining the very best possible future in the New Covenant:
Re 14:12 "Here is the perseverance of the saints who keep the COMMANDMENTS of God and their faith in Jesus."
Rev 22:14 "Blessed [are] they that do His COMMANDMENTS, that they may have right to the Tree of Life, and may enter in through the Gates into The City [New Jerusalem]. 15For outside [are] dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie." Obeying God's COMMANDMENTS is required for all maturing believers in order to inherit eternal life.
"I Love obedience!" God our Heavenly Father and the Creator wants His Will to be carefully done on Earth as written in "The Lord's Prayer" Mt 6:9-13. "Pray then like this: 'Our Father in heaven, hallowed be Your Name. Your kingdom come, Your Will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the Evil one."
Jesus said, "My yoke is easy, fitted, and My burden light." Amen
Being "Led by The Spirit" is only the First Step for Christians. Getting close to Jesus, Seeing His Face and Learning to Listen carefully to His "still quiet voice" in one's heart, is a matter of life and death in this life, and in eternity. Willingly doing what Jesus tells you to do and learning from Him and from the Holy Spirit makes one a true disciple of Jesus.
Spiritually work to keep the Holy Spirit in you. Working to be filled to overflowing with Him every day.
1John 2:20 "But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and all of you know the Truth. I do not write to you because you do not know the Truth, but because you do know it and because no lie comes from the Truth. Who is the liar? It is whoever denies that Jesus is the Christ. Such a person is the Antichrist—denying the Father and the Son. No one who denies the Son has the Father; whoever acknowledges the Son has the Father also. As for you, see that what you have heard from the beginning remains in you. If it does, you also will remain in the Son and in the Father. And this is what He promised us—eternal life." Believe and WORK spiritually to be overflowing with the Holy Spirit daily (Eph 5:18).
All American Christians knew in their hearts, at some point in time in their lives, the USA should have been a Christian nation a long time ago! American Christians all heard from the Holy Spirit and were led by the Holy Spirit to believe it was God's Will for America to be a Christian nation, "A city of God's Light on a hill" showing the salvation of God and Jesus to a lost world and helping all those who struggle to come to the Light and Truth of Jesus. Instead of obeying the Truth, American Christians have "hardened their hearts" effectively opposing becoming a Christian nation, opposing Christian U.S. Law so the Gospel could not be preached, if public school teachers desired to, in order save the children and maybe have some spiritual support of God's Love in their lives.
Sometimes churches just comfortably revel in the Charisma gifts of the Holy Spirit, but neglect to work to daily hear the voice of Jesus and be led by the Holy Spirit. Consider, uselessly racing the delivery vans around in circles, that behavior does not deliver the merchandise nor does the failure to do the work of Jesus commanded Christians to do which He also did with His Father before the foundation of the world. "Discipling the nations" to be Christians, continues today to be God's command.
Rev 1:5 has written the kings and the nation's leaders are already under the control of God and King Jesus today! Christians foolishly believe Jesus was mistaken when He said He was the supreme Ruler and He stopped ruling and reigning over the nations, contradicting the Holy Scripture. Either Jesus is reigning now and forever or is He a liar? In the first chapter of Revelation (Rev 1:5), Jesus announces He is already reigning over all the nations and then the apostate churches today teach heresies, that He suddenly starts to reign for a thousand years and then "quits" again! Jesus NEVER QUITS ruling and reigning over the nations of the Earth! It is the APOSTATE Christians who oppose His Kingdom on Earth and oppose Christian Law, even with the catastrophic loss of most children that are turned from believing in Jesus by the time they graduate from high school. Losing the children to the kingdom of darkness. America Christians losing the nation to its enemies by treaties eventually resulting in the coming dark tyranny of the U.N. is demonic. The state religion of Civil Government says mankind may be reformed without Jesus, is from seducing spirits, and it is a fatal heresy that will kill Christianity in the USA in one or two generations.
Jesus never contradicts Himself. Rev 1:5 establishes the fact He is reigning today over the nations and He continues to reign with His Father until life dies on the Earth.
Christians establishing His Kingdom in the nations willing to cooperate with Jesus is a matter of life and death. Avoiding WW3 if possible, if there is repentance by Christians whom oppose the Kingdom of God on Earth today and are opposing the reign of King Jesus on Earth, and then having the supernatural and natural prosperity of the "Millennium" Bible promises of the Old Testament and also made by Jesus for saints that overcome, ruling and reigning with Him today, with His power, grace, and blessings today!
Jesus, our example who wants and will help us becoming changed "into the image and likeness of God," was led by the Holy Spirit of His Father virtually 24/7 in His time in His flesh in His ministry as fulfilling prophecy and God's Law as the Messiah two millennia ago (Matthew 4:1).
Being Led by the Holy Spirit is only the first step. "But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right [Gk: "authority"] to become children of God, even to those who believe in His Name" John 1:12.
The next step in spiritual development is praying and waiting to receive for the "Spirit of Truth," the Lawyer, "the Comforter." "When the Spirit of Truth comes, He will guide you into all Truth. He will not speak on His own initiative, but will tell you what He has heard. He will tell you about the future" John 16:13.
Jesus said, "I Am The Truth."
Charisma "Cessationists," who are taught the charisma gifts ended when the canon of the Scripture was supposedly completed, with the writing of the Book of Revelation, which is usually the last Word they will ever hear. The assertion the Charisma gifts have ended, are refuted by 1Cor 1:7 "so that you do not lack any spiritual gift as you eagerly wait for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ." As long as the saints are waiting for the revelation, Resurrection and "Second Coming" of Jesus Christ, then the Charisma spiritual gifts will continue to exist so as to equip the saints for works of ministry, to build up the body of Christ, Eph 4:13 "until we ALL reach Unity in the Faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God, as we mature to the full measure of the stature of Christ." Eph 4:14 "Then we will no longer be infants, tossed about by the waves and carried around by every wind of teaching and by the clever cunning of men in their deceitful scheming."
However, Jesus defined "Perfect" as His Heavenly Father and not as the surviving books of the Holy Bible from the first century. Only the Perfect Father as "God Incarnate" in His Son Jesus at the Resurrection, the Second Coming will "set all things right." Knowledge of this physical existence will perish when we are given the "New Birth" or "Regeneration" in the New Heaven and New Earth. Until that transformation of those who "endure until the end," all need "The Greater Gifts" of tongues, healings, and the other Charisma Gifts written in the Scripture (1Cor 12:31).
Acts 2:38 "Peter said to them, 'Repent, and each of you be baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.'" Believing in the Name of Jesus involves being "Born Again," "Born from God Above." Moving in Christ and moving in His Body, each supplying each other's needs in the Church.
1Cor 4:2-4 "For he who speaks in an unknown tongue does not speak to men, but he speaks to God. Indeed, no one understands him; he utters mysteries in the Spirit. But he who prophesies speaks to men for their edification, encouragement, and comfort. The one who speaks in an unknown tongue edifies himself."
To be built up, edifying oneself, in the Holy Spirit, with one's private prayer language is God and Paul's desire for all Christians (1Cor 14:5a).
Reading the Holy Scriptures is important, however, speaking in a prayer language is edifying, as Christians are commanded to seek the Face of Jesus in our prayers (1Cor 13:12). Failure to fervently and righteously seek the Face of Jesus may result in unnecessary suffering and perishing prematurely. As Jehovah asks "Why should you die Israel?" "Seek My Face and Live" Amos 5:4.
The Charisma gifts are here to help the Body of Christ function together in worship as the integrated Body of Christ (1Cor 12 to chapter 14) and in being changed from glory to glory into His image and likeness. The Charisma gifts of Jesus will all continue to exist unto the Second Coming in this life.
The biblical number "thousand" does not mean reigning only for a thousand years, where a "fairy tale" or "doctrine of demons" fantasy forcibly takes over America. "Jesus is the same" every year forever. God does not only own the "cattle on a thousand hills" but owns every atom and molecule of the entire universe! It is NOT that Jesus stops reigning after a "thousand years," it is a numerical metaphor for the rebellion of the Christians opposing the reign of Jesus in America, in schools and in government, ruining their children under a democracy! They should have and COULD HAVE DONE SOMETHING to help SAVE the children of the nation. All Christians in America knew, at some time in their walk with Jesus that America should have been a Christian nation!
Instead of obedience to the Voice of Jesus the Good Shepherd, many Christians love the Charisma gifts and Holy Spirit's anointing and continue to oppose having a Christian government in America today, which is bringing God's Wrath upon the nation sometime soon. The answer/solution is enacting Christian U.S. Law. Learn Bible Apologetics at ChristianAmendment.com
Save yourselves, Save your children, Save America and Save Christians from being unnecessarily martyred and persecuted around the Earth! "Make disciples of ALL nations" as Jesus Commanded Mt 28:18.
The beginning, 1Cor 13:12 Seeing the Face of Jesus, however sometimes difficult, it is the Promise of God and King Jesus and His daily command that is to be obeyed by ALL Christians that have an opportunity to hear His Voice. Be led by the Holy Spirit to see His Face and listen to His voice. Jesus said, "My sheep hear My voice."
Jeremiah 29:13 “You will seek Me and find Me, when you seek Me with ALL your Heart.”
Amos 5:4 "This is what the LORD says to Israel: "SEEK ME AND LIVE!" The reverse is also true, the failure to Seek the Face of God through Jesus His Son may result in illness, premature physical death, and may result in a fate worse than death forever. There will be no acceptable excuses before God's angels for the sin of opposing the Will of God and Jesus in the presence of the Holy Spirit, for those who choose idols of demons and seducing spirits, instead of choosing to see The Face of Jesus and Spiritual Drink from the Rivers of Living Water, healings by being in the presence of The King the Kings Jesus. Come to Jesus and Live in Him. He wants you to have the Abundant Life He gives to those who believe in Him forever!
Jesus PROMISED in John 14:18-20 “I will not abandon you as orphans, I will come to you. Soon the world will no longer see Me, BUT YOU WILL SEE ME! True Christians will work spiritually to see the "Face" of Jesus as He PROMISED. This letter explains how to daily see the "Face" of Jesus.
Don't expect those of "the world" to see Jesus, but true believers will see Jesus today (1Cor 13:12)! Jesus said, "Soon the world will no longer see Me, BUT YOU WILL SEE ME!" Jesus-God-Incarnate promises you will SEE His Face in this life and in New Jerusalem on the New Earth. Today is the time to learn to spiritually see His Face so Christians will be more empowered and their prayers answered by seeing the Face of Jesus now and in eternity.
God is True Love. What God and Jesus COMMAND is possible for us to do and for Him to perform in our lives, and He will EMPOWER those who desire His Truth and wish to fellowship with Him and see His Face through His Son King of Kings Jesus in this life.
First, Christians must repent of their sins of unbelief, and believe that He will reward each one that seeks His Spiritual Face by allowing Christians to see His Spiritual Face. By spiritually looking to the warm spiritual spot in their midst, where Jesus, or a delegated angel of His presence, exists somewhere in the GLORY cloud as Christians gather in His Name in Church, in their homes and going about their daily business.
Hebrews 11:6 "And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who approaches Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him."
It is a matter of Life and Death for true Pastors and Bible Teachers to teach all Christians everywhere how to seek the Face of Jesus, or they may needlessly suffer and perish...
In 2Chronicles 7:14 All Old Testament and New Testament believers are COMMANDED to repent of their sins and daily seek The Spiritual Face of God. “If My people who are called by My Name Humble themselves, PRAY AND SEEK My Face, repent and turn from their evil ways, then I will Hear from Heaven, Forgive their sin, and Heal their Land.” While the Land remained under the sovereign ownership of Israel, God was willing to "Heal their Land." The sovereignty of the land of The United States of America has already been compromised and betrayed by the U.S. Congress by passing foolish treaties, advocated by globalists and has been transferred to the U.N. World Government. However, God continues to encourage His people to seek and see His Face through His Son Jesus today and every day.
If Christians would spiritually work daily to see the Face of Jesus, they would see the heresies are wrong and unbiblical, such as giving everything to enemies of God in the coming dark tyranny of the U.N. World Government.
Jesus promised, "If anyone is willing to do the Will of My Father, He will make it known unto him." This explains the Earth's population was able to hear the Voice of God and knew what to do prior to evangelistic efforts of Pentecost in Acts 2 and afterward.
Daily praise and worship God our Father through Jesus coming together in groups of at least two's or three's:
"Speaking to one another with psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit. Sing and make music from your heart to the Lord" Ephesians 5:19. "God dwells in the Praises of His People."
Seek and reveal the presence of God and Jesus by praising Him every day in your heart and have your prayers and petitions answered.
God promises "One Heart and Soul" for those in Christ Jesus in Jeremiah 32:39.
This prophecy of One Heart and actions according to "The Way" was fulfilled at Pentecost (Acts 2) and it remains the Will of Jesus Today in the New Testament.
Jeremiah 32:38-40 "They shall be My people, and I will be their God; then I will give them one Heart and one Way, that they may fear Me forever, for the good of them and their children after them. And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not turn away from doing them good; but I will put My FEAR in their hearts so that they will not depart from Me."
Acts 3:31-33 "31After they had prayed, their meeting place was shaken, and they were all FILLED with the Holy Spirit and spoke the WORD of God boldly. 32The congregation of believers was ONE in HEART and SOUL [In Christ's Soul]. No one claimed that any of his possessions was his own, but they shared everything they owned. 33With GREAT POWER, the APOSTLES continued to give their testimony about the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. And abundant grace was upon them all."
The Jeremiah 32:39 Prophecy is promised supernaturally for becoming "ONE HEART," commanded for all believers, starting at Pentecost two millennia ago. It is with the heart Christians "hear" the Voice of Jesus, for what a man thinks in his heart, so he is. Let Jesus be the Door of your heart and invite Him into you every day to fellowship. "You are the Temple of God" (1Cor 3:16-17; 6:20; 2Cor 6:16; Eph 2:22).
Jesus commended the disciples who both hear and see spiritually the Holy Spirit's teaching anointing, while others want fantasy heresies and are destined to lose everything (Mt 13:16). Jesus repeated God's Command to have "ears to hear what the Spirit is saying." The question is, the Holy Spirit is speaking, are you listening to Him asking Him for "ears to hear" Him, or to follow your own lusts and desires?
The Angel Gabriel said, “you are to Name Him Jesus, for He will SAVE His people FROM their SINS” (Mathew 1:21; Luke 1:31). Jesus said, “My yoke is easy to bear, and the burden I give you is light” (Mt 11:30). His appropriate burden for Christians is light and He will do most of the spiritual work to save you from your sins and help lift your overburdens, and He will help you in His ministry as you submit to Him in all of your life.
1Chronicles 16:10-11 [Let us] “Glory in His Holy Name; Let the heart of those who seek the LORD be glad. Seek the LORD and His Strength; Seek His Face CONTINUALLY.” God asks Christians to seek His Face “continually.” "God is Spirit" and part of being conformed into the image and likeness of God and Christ is a full-time 24/7 investment with our spirit obeying Him with "all of our heart, mind, strength, and soul." Therefore it is of no surprise the Bible has written we are to seek every day "His Face CONTINUALLY."
Psalm 105:4 "Seek the LORD and the strength He gives!"
"Seek his presence continually!"
"Seek the LORD and His strength."
"Seek His Face forevermore."
"Seek His Face and Live!"
Eternal happiness and fulfillment involve seeing the Face of the Father when one looks at the Face of Jesus when one spiritually looks at the Shekinah Glory Cloud that usually appears in true Worship of Him with at least "two or three" worshippers agreeing touching spirituallyin His Name.
Continually being in His Presence and Seeing His Face in this life is the meaning of life itself, it is joy and fellowship with Him everyday, forever. God requires ALL True Christians to seek His Face revealed in His Son Jesus Christ.
There is "one mediator between God and man, the man-Christ Jesus."
1Timothy 2:5 "For there is only one God and one Mediator who can reconcile God and humanity--the man Christ Jesus." Not Mary, or Saint Christopher or anyone else can help. Only Jesus will intercede for you as you call upon Him using His Name. Amen
Jesus the Great High Priest
Hebrews 4:14-16 "Since then we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. 15For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin.
16Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need."
It is not impossible, although it may seem difficult at times, to see His Face as our Creator in His Son requests of true Christians, "as in a mirror dimly." If you want to see His Face, you must spiritually work to stir up your spiritual gifts and worship Him and He will help you find Him and see His Face everyday (1Cor 13:12). God dwells in the praises of His people, praise Him in your heart in melody and He will reveal His Face to you.
Real, authentic Christians who care about being His Presence, will Seek His Face "continually." Fake Christians or nominal Christians will just sit in church, or believe whatever the pastor says is true. They don't fully believe, holding back from being in His Presence. By holding back from giving their all, they deny the spiritual power and absolute authority of Jesus to save them from their sins of unbelief. As a result of their sin of unbelief, fake or weak Christians will give up and not seek the Face of Jesus continually which is commanded for ALL true Christians who want God's true Love described in the Bible's Love Chapter including 1Cor 13:12.
The blessings of seeing His Face results in true forgiveness, and healing of our whole being. Seeking the Face of Jesus will empower Christians so they have the true signs and fruits of the Holy Spirit. Mark 16:17 "And these signs will accompany those who believe: In My Name, they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues [languages]." Seeing the Face of Jesus results in a healthy, loving church of authentic believers. Jesus said true disciples will be known for their exceptional agape-sacrificial love for one another.
John 12:49 KJV "For I did not speak on My own initiative, but the Father Himself who sent Me has given Me a commandment as to what to say and what to speak." This is the objective end development desire that our Heavenly Father wants the Body of Christ to achieve before eternity in the New Heaven and Earth begins.
1Cor 15:28 "And when all things shall be subdued unto Him, then shall the Son also Himself be subject unto Him that put all things under Him, that God may be all in all." ... "For all things as yet are not put under Him in fact; although in the right, God the Father has given to Him an authoritative power over all things, and a right to dispose of them." Being conformed to Christ Jesus and being constantly led by the Holy Spirit is the desire of Jesus and His Father.
John 12:49 CSV "For I have not spoken of Myself; but the Father which sent Me, He gave Me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak." Because of the sinfulness of earthly desires and other sins of the Body of Christ, God has provided a spiritual pathway, that if followed that will define, refine and edify Christians in the most Holy Faith and that is the Gift of the Holy Spirit with speaking in unknown languages according to God's Will so Christians will be helped in their development to be conformed into the image and likeness of God and His Son Jesus.
1Cor 14:4 "The one speaking in a tongue edifies himself, but the one prophesying edifies the church." NASB "One who speaks in a tongue edifies himself; but one who prophesies edifies the church." KJV In prayer, "He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth the church." ALL the translators of the Bible agree speaking in unknown languages is for the good of believers and helps to build them up together in the Holy Faith.
Although Jesus was filled with grace and truth He was not allowed to sin two millennia ago, or all would be lost. Jesus could not hold the keys of Death and Hades and hold those who were unholy in the place of exile, eternal Darkness and for those in the Lake of Fire forever. Jesus passed the test and expects Christians to also pass the test (Mark 10:38), giving His grace for those who fail the tests and trials of this life if we call upon His Name of Jesus in prayer to be saved (Col 3:17).
Unlike sinful human beings, Jesus did NOT speak with sinful motivations. Jesus spoke ONLY as His Father gave Him a vision or commandment. Jesus did not swear, or blaspheme or anything sinful, ever! Whether for thousands of years, or billions of years from the beginning of His creation, Jesus did not need a "go between" as the gift of the Holy Spirit and speaking in unknown tongues or languages to hide His true motivations and wrongful prayer petitions as the Body of Christ needs today and forever. Hebrews has written Jesus is our Mediator, our go between His Holy Father and sinful us. Jesus, for those that believe in Him is their salvation.
"The heart is deceitful above all things." To say Christians do not need the pure and holy intercession of the Mediator Jesus with the "greater gift" of "unknown tongues," is to deceive oneself, believing oneself is "perfect" and in need of nothing as the sinful Laodicean Church (Revelation 3:14-22) that was about to lose their salvation because they were spiritually blind! It is a matter of "Life and Death" for true Christians to "seek the greater gifts" (1Cor 12:31) which includes the greater gift of "unknown tongues," the personal prayer language gift of the Holy Spirit, whom always prays according to the Will of our Heavenly Father and Jesus. Failure to seek repentance, and obtain the "greater gifts," purchased with the blood of Jesus, repenting of sin. The "eye salve" Jesus speaks of, so to spiritually better see His Face, more clearly hear His Will and Voice, and will result in more power to obey what Jesus has told each one to do so to establish the Kingdom of God and Jesus on Earth today as it is in Heaven.
These "greater gifts" listed in 1Cor 12 will last until the "Perfect" comes. Jesus defined "Perfect"as His Father, who is PERFECT. Heavenly Father in Jesus is the "Perfect." "Draw near to God and He will draw near to you." Disciples will work to become "Perfect" as Jesus has commanded Christians to do throughout their lives in Matthew 5:48.
"Binding Satan is ONLY conditioned upon the 'Keys of the Kingdom'" conditions Jesus gave to Peter. Drawing near to God and binding Satan to the boundaries established, away from you by God's Will is what "binding" means. The Amplified Bible Version brings out the previously designed boundaries of "The WORD" in Heaven and Earth. "Loosing on Earth," unleashing, is also strictly defined by God and Jesus establishes the bringing life, liberty, angels, ministering spirits, and happiness to believers on Earth, who wish to dwell in the presence of our Heavenly Father.
"Unknown tongues" Helps us to pray as we ought to as "Sons of God." Unknown tongues Helps us to pray as Jesus did, in holiness and in faithfulness forever from His beginning.
It should be the normative behavior for almost ALL of Christianity to speak daily in the gift of unknown tongues. Satan can hear our thoughts when he and demons are close enough to hear sinful thoughts. That is how he knows how to tempt us. However Satan and demons cannot know what is being said in an unknown prayer language of various "tongues."
For example, people with a problem with vulgar language will be eventually controlled by the demon(s) pushing them to swear and speak perverse things.
Moses spent all night long working to drive off "birds of the air" from his covenant sacrifice with Jehovah. Our bodies are to be a "living sacrifice." We are to drive away demons, whom Jesus defined as "the birds of the air," just as Jesus did by silencing demons and driving them away. Jesus defined "the birds of the air" as demons in Luke 8:12.
Luke 8:11 “Now the parable is this: the seed [1John 3:9 God's seed"] is the WORD of God. 12“Those beside the road are those who have heard; then the devil comes and takes away the WORD from their heart, so that they will not believe and be saved. 13“Those on the rocky soil are those who, when they hear, receive the WORD with joy; and these have no firm root; they believe for a while, and in time of temptation fall away. 14“The seed which fell among the thorns, these are the ones who have heard, and as they go on their way they are choked with worries and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to maturity. 15“But the seed in the good soil, these are the ones who have heard the WORD in an honest and good heart, and hold it fast, and bear fruit with perseverance."
This is partly why Jesus warns that every thought will be judged in this life. Spiritual warfare is sometimes expressed in one's thoughts.
1Cor 14:5 "I wish ALL of you spoke in other tongues [languages], but even more that you prophesied. The person who prophesies is greater than the person who speaks in tongues, unless he interprets so that the church may be built up." It is God's desire and command to seek the gift of praying in a prayer language to Him. God desires precision prayer. Learning to yield one's tongue and spirit to God and Jesus in perfect unison, as Jesus is the Great Conductor for eternity.
1Cor 14:2 "For one who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but to God; for no one understands, but in his spirit he speaks mysteries." God expects the normal behavior for Christianity to pray in a unknown prayer language that only our Heavenly Father understands.
Prophecy and Tongues in church:
1Cor 14:13-15 "Therefore, the one who speaks in a [unknown] tongue should pray that he may interpret. For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my mind is unfruitful. What then shall I do? I will pray with my spirit, but I will also pray with my mind. I will sing with my spirit, but I will also sing with my mind." Tongues are subject to the control of individual Christians, just as the Prophets have discretionary control when to prophesy (1Cor 14:32).
Paul thanked God he spoke in unknown tongues more than most Christians. To be conformed to the "image and likeness" of Jesus Christ our example is the goal of developing with our prayers with His Spirit, makes for a better, vibrant daily living relationship to God through Jesus Christ being developed. Praying in unknown tongues and with understanding with one's minds is key to being refined in the "image and likeness" of Jesus Christ. Seeking the Face of Jesus and His gift of praying by His Spirit in an unknown language that only God understands is the clear WORD of God (1Cor 14:2).
John 8:28 "Jesus therefore said, 'When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am He, and I do nothing on My own initiative, but I speak these things as the Father ... We also see from the Scriptures that even though Jesus was in the form of God, He emptied himself (Phil. 2:5-8). Christians are to learn to speak in unknown languages, and do our Heavenly Father's Will as Jesus did. In a pentecostal Bible college it took three months of daily seeking His Face to obtain the gift of His prayer language. No matter how hard and how long it takes, it is the Command of Almighty God and Jesus for ALL Christians to seek the greater spiritual gifts including a prayer language gift of "unknown tongues."
Jesus gives GRACE to those in ignorance, but to us who know more of the Holy Scripture, we are more required to do His Will and speak in unknown tongues in constant prayers, as much as possible as Apostle Paul did.
Because Jesus Christ is "The Holy One" of God and NEVER spoke sinfully, or amiss, in the presence of His Father, there was never a need for The Father to shield Himself and hide the Truth of what Jesus was actually saying from Him. With sinful Christians, Our Heavenly Father has to often hide the TRUTH of what we are praying or saying in order to maintaining and help conform our human spirit into "the image and likeness of God" (Genesis 1:26). This is why Apostle Paul spoke in "unknown tongues" more than all of the Corinthians. This is why the BIBLE and the WORD COMMANDS, "PRAY ALWAYS." We are to pray without ceasing, as much as possible for all men everywhere. Especially pray for the Body of Christ. How can a Christian not sin with their words? Answer by OBEYING THE COMMAND to speak in unknown tongues with the gift of the Holy Spirit as much as possible. (Usually speaking in unknown tongues with the gift of the Holy Spirit, with our mouths closed so not to offend nonChristians.)
Our Heavenly Father wants us to be in the "image and likeness" of His Son, who has conformed His Life, Heart, and Soul into the "image and likeness" of His Eternal Father forever.
John 1:18 "No one has ever seen God. The One and Only Son, the One who is at the Father's side, He has revealed Him." The Face of Jesus the Son of God continually reveals our Heavenly Father's Face and He is our Creator to us in this life and in eternity in New Jerusalem. "They shall see His Face and His Name shall be on their foreheads" Rev 22:4.
Col 1:15-17 "The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For in Him all things were created, things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities. All things were created through Him and for Him. He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together..." Everything in Heaven and on Earth and EVERYTHING in the New Heaven and New Earth has been created THROUGH the ONLY begotten Son Jesus Christ the Holy One (John 3:16). Only the only begotten Son Jesus (John 3:16) will ever see His Father's Face as He actually is.
Jesus is the only One who has ever seen the Face of His Father and He is the only One who ever will. Seeing the Face of Jesus is the only way to see the Father today and forever. Learning to daily see the Face of Jesus, is a matter of Life and spiritual Death for Christians.
KJV John 1:18 "No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, He hath declared Him." All those who wish to See the Face of Jesus are able to, as God has COMMANDED this to be empowered by His WORD. Commanded by the Holy Scriptures written by Apostle Paul in 1Cor 13:12.
Matthew 13:11-17 Jesus replied, “You are permitted to understand the secrets of the Kingdom of Heaven, but others are not.
To those who listen to my teaching, more understanding will be given, and they will have an abundance of knowledge.
But for those who are not listening, even what little understanding they have will be taken away from them.
That is why I use these parables, For they look, but they don’t really see.
They hear, but they don’t really listen nor understand.
This fulfills the prophecy of Isaiah that says,
‘When you hear what I say,
you will not understand.
When you see what I do,
you will not comprehend.
For the hearts of these people are hardened,
and their ears cannot hear,
and they have closed their eyes—
so their eyes cannot see,
and their ears cannot hear,
and their hearts cannot understand,
and they cannot turn to Me
and let Me heal them.’
“But blessed are your eyes, because they see; and your ears, because they hear.
I tell you the truth, many prophets and righteous people longed to see what you see, but they didn’t see it.
And they longed to hear what you hear, but they didn’t hear it."
Exodus 33:20 “You cannot see My Face, for no man can see Me and live!” Only through the Face of His only begotten Son of God Jesus may Christians see the actual Face of His Father in His absolute Holiness and Power. As He lives to make intercession for those who are seeking the Face of Jesus to live forever. Jesus made it perfectly clear to Apostle Thomas, that to see His Face, is to see the Face of His Father and that will be the case for all of eternity. In the New Jerusalem, through the Face of Jesus all the power and light of the New Heavens and the New Earth are poured through Him. Jesus will be the ONLY source of light in the New Jerusalem.
Seeing the Face of Jesus is truly a matter of LIFE FOR ALL ETERNITY (Rev 22:4). 1Cor 13:12 Seeing the Face of Jesus located in the Bible's Love Chapter is God's centerpiece of having a good spiritual life and a complete and healthy spiritual relationship with God and Jesus.
John 6:46 "No one has seen the Father except the One who is from God; only He has seen the Father." ONLY JESUS HAS SEEN HIS FATHER!!! Because God is Holy, a Mediator between God and unholy man is required. Christ became a "firewall" or access, between "God who is a consuming Fire" and His sinful people. Only Jesus is the only mediator between God and mankind. Only through the Face of Jesus may Christians see the Face of our Heavenly Father who spoke us into existence by His WORD through His Son Jesus. As Jesus said, "He who has seen Me has seen the Father."
"To whom more is given, more is required." For growing healthy Christians who sanctify themselves, praying, learning daily see the Face of Jesus, is a matter of life and death.
2Cor 5:13 NLT "If it seems we are crazy, it is to bring glory to God. And if we are in our right minds, it is for your benefit."
Note: madness and other chastisements sometimes results when Christians disobey the Holy Spirit and oppose the Kingdom of God.
True Christianity is worshipping God seeing His Face through Jesus “in Spirit and in Truth.” Absolute Truth is vital for a true spiritual relationship with our Creator. As Jesus said, “I Am The Truth.” Absolute Truth is vital for a healthy relationship with God The Father who is in Heaven. “God is Spirit” and as Jesus said on the cross, “Father receive My Spirit!” Genesis 1:26a reveals God’s eternal objective by saying, “Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness.” Because “God is Spirit,” it is supremely important to learn to conform our spirit into His “image and likeness,” so by learning to see His Face we will conform our spirits to the desire of His Holy Spirit for all of eternity.
Genesis 1:26b shows the amount of conformity of man’s spirit is limited “so he may rule” on Earth. Christ is the ultimate example of conforming His personal spirit to the Spirit of God His Father and 1Cor 15:25 has written Christ is now ruling and reigning over the kings and nations on Earth today, though many Christians are sinning in unbelief, not believing He is reigning in the absolute authority He said in Matthew 28:18. As a result of unbelief, Christians are not working as one so to effectively overcome the evil one. Many Christians fail to learn to spiritually work with Him and fail to spiritual bond and work with each other, so to reign with Him in their hearts and serve Him with their spirit in all areas of their lives.
As a result of the sin of unbelief King Jesus is actually reigning now, churches and Christians are falling before their enemies... The Scriptures have written King Jesus is reigning today over the leaders and nations, as written in 1Cor 15:25; Rev 1:5. Misinformed Christians are opposing the USA from becoming Christian by U.S. Law in their sinning in "unbelief" (1Cor 15:25; Rev 1:5). The sin of rebellion and sinning in unbelief is so extreme, most Christians seem to want legal polytheism and pagan religions to reign over them and be the dominate element in culture and in government instead. Making it easier for their enemies to immigrate, they overtake and flood the nation with evil spirits, they seduce the children and the easily gullible. Daily seeing the Face of God and Jesus and walking with Him, is critical for believing King Jesus is reigning today. As a result of the sin of rebellion, many churches have severe witchcraft sins.
For example the professional witch who authored the "Harry Potter" series as admitted the novels were written with real tutoring for witchcraft, seducing the children to become witches. As a result in many churches the occult is more popular than reading the Bible. Losing the children to spirits of witchcraft is a tragic testimony.
The sin of witchcraft begins with evil desires, wanting to manipulate others, intimidate, dominate others, and when the Christians are unwilling to hear the voice of God and Jesus, but rather to back off to be led by the Spirit and occasionally doing and speaking/prophesying from human or evil spirits, what is of The Faith. Christians "think" that is "good enough?" Kenneth Copeland in the SouthWest Believer's Convention 2018 A.D. said, "I have NEVER heard the Voice of Jesus." Although he has prophesied and has some success praying for healing of the sick and oppressed and Copeland preaches the WORD of God at times. 2Chron 7:14 shows is the absolute WILL of God for all Christians to seek His Face. "If My people" and not only a few Christian leaders and prophets, but His people who must all seek His Face. American Christianity is mostly apostate, failing to repent and seek His Face, instead of moving up in Heavenly Places with seeing His Face, the churches are sacrificing the minds and souls of most of the children in the state public schools. King Jesus is giving a time for repentance, but He is NOT turning the "other cheek" for the sacrifice of the children's eternal souls on the altars of the public school religions.
Basically in rebellion and unwilling to seek His Face results in self will. For example "I WANT," "I prophesy," prophesying to the lusts of people's spirits, instead of speaking the Oracles the Holy Spirit as the churches fall, losing the majority of Christian children and virtually all the USA's children.
The sin of witchcraft is rooted in "I," "Me," wanting pleasures and seducing spirits or gossip, judging, pride, which was the signature sin of Lucifer, being full of pride instead of seeking to do the Will of God Almighty and Jesus all of the time.
Apostle Paul called himself a "slave/doulos Greek, of His Master Jesus. So should all Christians, except for married Christians, abandon most thoughts of self-pleasure, pride and every thought that exalts itself against "The Mind of Christ." Conforming oneself to the Will of Jesus, the "image and likeness" of God is difficult, however commanded by our Heavenly Father. Christians should consider themselves as "slaves" and not masters of King Jesus at all times.
Because the American church has gone after "seducing spirits" instead of Hearing Jesus and Seeing His Face and DOING HIS WILL the Wrath of God is coming in a few years to the nations. Jesus would love to forgive and give grace, however ruining the minds and destroying the lives of most children, by state psychological conditioning in LGBTQI and other immorality, Jesus is NOT GOING TO TURN THE OTHER CHEEK. The time of grace with Pres. Trump is God's gracious gift and perhaps better times will come if there is repentance and true seeking the Face of Jesus (1Cor 13:12). It is also possible time has run out for America to become a Christian nation as Jesus commanded and the conscience of most Christians knew that America should of been a Christian nation a long time ago continuing to today.
In 1Corinthians 13:12 All Christians are COMMANDED to daily seek The Face of God and actually continually spiritually working to see The Face of Him, “through a glass darkly,” or “mirror obscurely,” or better translated “mirror dimly.”
Jesus is the "gold standard" example of what Christians are called to do, by seeing the Face of Jesus, seeing visions and speaking what they hear Jesus say in the vision to obtain, signs, wonders, healings and miracles.
“For now WE SEE ONLY A REFLECTION AS IN A MIRROR; then we shall See face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know [Jesus] fully, even as I am fully known” 1Cor 13:12 NIV. When we have our new immortal bodies, then we will then be able to survive seeing the Face of Jesus in New Jerusalem, as all of the Light of the New Heaven and Universe will be pouring through Jesus Christ His only begotten Son forever.
2Cor 3:18 “But we all, with unveiled FACE beholding as in a MIRROR the glory of the Lord, are being TRANSFORMED into the SAME IMAGE from glory to glory, just as from the Lord, the Spirit.”
Just as you appreciate people looking directly at your face when conversing, so King Jesus desires His believers and disciples to look upon His Face. "Look upon His Face and Live." Or look away into spiritual darkness and perish forever...
Pastors and churches often neglect teaching the basic Foundational Doctrine and spiritual importance of always “Seeing The Face of Jesus,” as it is a critically needed foundational doctrine of model Christian daily spiritual behavior, and character development (1Cor 13:12). All Christians are commanded to train their spiritual senses daily in their lives, taking time for seeking a spiritual and soulical relationship with Him ("believed with one heart and soul" Acts 4:32) so that we may eventually dwell in His Presence and see the Face of God and Jesus forever in New Jerusalem. Revelation 22:4 “and they shall SEE His Face, and His Name shall be on their foreheads.” With our future immortal bodies we will see the Face of Jesus as He actually is in the New Jerusalem in the eternal Life to come.
1Cor 13:12 "For now we SEE only a reflection [of Him] as in a mirror; then we shall SEE [Him] FACE TO FACE. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known."
Seeing by faith the Face of the Father is always done through seeing the Face of Jesus (1Cor 13:12). Doing what is commanded in God's WORD is true obedience and worshipping God Almighty with one heart and one soul, “in Spirit and in Truth” forever and ever, Amen (Rev 22:4).
Learning to see His Face in this life, as God and Apostle Paul COMMANDED in 1Cor 13:12, is critically necessary to be eligible to see His Face in eternity in New Jerusalem. Either Christians learn now to seek His Face in this lifetime, learning to spiritually see Him, or face the actual possibility of losing out on the comfort of having His blessings of seeing the Face of Jesus forever in New Jerusalem in eternity. Now is the time to fully submit ourselves to Jesus Christ and to The Spirit of Truth and learn from Him today! By repenting of sins, repenting of trespasses against God and Jesus and repenting of sins against people, while seeing His Face, Christians are then able to take His Presence with His Glory in them, in all their daily activities and relationship with our God and Savior.
Note many babies who die in their mothers' wombs will also be expected to spiritually “see” the Face of Jesus in eternity, as John the Baptist, when he was a baby, lept in his mother’s womb, John as a baby, recognizing the Holy Spirit of God as He chose with his free will of his human spirit, so to fellowship with the Holy Spirit in his mother's womb, as well as those people sometimes having “death bed conversions” into Christ must also choose to be “born-again” and have a spiritual relationship with Him. However to us who are alive today, “to whom more is given, more is required.” More is required of us today and thus we are COMMANDED to OVERCOME THE EVIL ONE, as Jesus also did with the Holy Scriptures and Rhema Word of God, (sword of the Spirit) and to seek a better daily relationship with our Heavenly Father as we fellowship in Jesus Christ everyday!
A New Commandment is given in 1John 2:12-14 to overcome the evil one, powers and principalities in high places. "I am writing to you, little children, because your sins have been forgiven through His name. I am writing to you, fathers, because you know Him who is from the beginning. I am writing to you, young men, because you have OVERCOME THE EVIL ONE. I have written to you, children, because you know the Father. I have written to you, fathers, because you know Him who is from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God abides in you, and you have OVERCOME THE EVIL ONE."
Revelation 3:21 "He who OVERCOMES, I will grant to him to sit down with Me on My throne, as I also OVERCAME [including overcoming the evil one] and sat down with My Father on His throne."
Evangelist Derek Prince, a biblical scholar and deliverance minister has correctly taught, that if the mother intentionally exposes herself to the occult and evil spirits, the baby, who has a spirit and a free will, may accept those occult demons in the womb (including LGBTQ demons). Many children and adults have need of spiritual deliverance from evil spirits as also Jesus Himself taught (Mark 16:17 true disciples will drive out the demons "in the Name of Jesus"). Adding to the woe of the nation, others including myself have had visions of a "pit" similar to the pit where Apollyon and his devils were locked and chained are being released as the demonic news media and entertainment media indoctrinate with anti-biblical morals and antiChristian ethics. Opposing King Jesus reigning according to the freedom of conscience results in demons being unleashed upon the nation. Jesus does not reign for only a thousand years and "stop," King Jesus reigns forever (Rev 20:7). Jesus does not have only "a cattle on a thousand hills." Jesus owns every atom of the universe. Rev 20:7 has written the price of Israel in Luke 19:27 in 70 A.D. or the USA today, Jesus commands the demons to be unleashed upon the nations that have known Him better and rejected more Holy Spirit, Light of God, the facts of science so to reject becoming a Christian nation. Most true Christians know America should have been a Christian nation in the beginning and today!
Christians may have spiritual problems for all of their lives, not recognizing they may have inadvertently given a place for demons to influence them early in their infancy as "helpless babies." Jesus wants Christians to be free of demonic influences, regardless if they have been with them "all of their lives." Similarly as nations turn against God, they and their national governments are being overwhelmed by more and more demons and express increasing demonic hatred.
Psalm 33:12 "Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, the people He chose for His inheritance." Before Donald Trump as President, the USA was almost entirely in rebellion to God Almighty and to the Creator of Heaven and Earth.
1John 2:14 “I have written to you who are God's children because you know the Father. I have written to you who are mature in The Faith because you know Christ, who existed from the beginning. I have written to you who are young in The Faith because you are strong. God's Word lives in your hearts, AND YOU HAVE WON YOUR BATTLE WITH THE EVIL ONE!!!”
Mark 11:22 "Have faith in God!" Jesus commanded to have Faith in God His Father.
Jer 1:19 “They will fight against you, but THEY WILL NOT OVERCOME YOU, for I am with you to deliver you,” declares the LORD."
1John 2:14 "I have written to you, fathers, because you know Him who has been from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, because you are strong, and the WORD of God abides in you, and you have OVERCOME the evil one."
1John 4:4 "You are from God, little children, and have OVERCOME them; because greater is He Who is in you, than he who is in the world."
1John 5:4 "For whatever is [spiritually] born of God OVERCOMES the world; and this is the VICTORY that has OVERCOME the world, our FAITH!"
Faithfully keeping His Spiritual presence with you and seeing His Face daily (Mt 18:18-20) is critically important and a matter of eternal life and death. Jesus may or may not speak English, in a conversational manner with you, but He does speak to true Christians, it is His Promise! He will lead Christians with His Holy Spirit and eventually Christians will learn to listen to His Voice as they draw near to God seeking the presence and Face of Jesus so God will draw near to those faithfully seeking to worship Him “in Spirit and in Truth.”
Basically, either Christians learn now to delight themselves in the LORD and daily see His Face, or choose to sin as ancient Israel sinned under Moses and suffered the consequences. As Israel sinned in fear and unbelief, they turned away from His presence, asking God to silence His Voice and Hide His “radiance” of His Face and His Light. Israel sinned by seeking spiritual darkness by their refusal to see God’s Light coming from Moses. In their retreat, and turning back from seeking and seeing God, they begged Moses to cover his face with a veil because they wanted to hide from the Light of God and hide in spiritual darkness, similar to Adam and Eve also sinned and then tried to hide from God.
Jesus showed some of His true nature on the Mount of Transfiguration so Moses who was seeing the Light of God of His Face and spoke to Him in a similar face to Face manner.
Numbers 12:7-9 "Not so, with My servant Moses, He is faithful in all My household; With him I speak Mouth to mouth, Even openly, and not in dark sayings, And he beholds the Form of the LORD. Why then were you not afraid To speak against My servant, against Moses?" So the anger of the LORD burned against them and He departed.…
Hebrews 3:10 "THEREFORE I WAS ANGRY WITH THIS GENERATION, AND SAID, 'THEY ALWAYS GO ASTRAY IN THEIR HEART, AND THEY DID NOT KNOW MY WAYS."
Instead of fellowshipping with God’s Light in their lives, almost all of that rebellious generation under Moses died in the Wilderness, as a result of a lifetime of rebellion, where they refused to repent of their stubborn unwillingness to seek the Face of God and Listen to Him and Obey His Voice as Moses did and refused to learn and follow His Ways. They, as most Americans today, do exactly the opposite of what is commanded by, or required by God and King Jesus. Being superficially righteous is not enough! Seeing the Face of our Father who is in Heaven, seeing Him through the Face of Jesus His Son and letting Him conform our human spirits into His image and likeness is what is commanded for all Christians!
Numbers 12:6-7 “God says, ‘Listen to Me. When there are PROPHETS in your midst, I, the Eternal One, will show Myself to them in Visions, and will sound My Voice in their dreams. It’s different with My servant, Moses. I have entrusted him above anyone else in My whole house.’”
John 1:12 "But as many as received Him, He gave to them AUTHORITY to be children of God, to those believing in His Name."
It is vital to learn from Him, pray for "ears to hear what the Spirit is saying," while daily seeing His Face, and hearing God and Jesus. Listening to the Voice of Jesus well enough so to have prophets today with actual spiritual gifts of being Prophets helping to enable us to be the “sons of the prophets” (Acts 3:25) and we are commanded to clearly hear and listen to the Voice of God and Jesus and follow His leading in our heart. All Christians are commanded to have one-heart and the “mind-of-Christ.” In Acts 4:32 “All the believers were one in heart and mind.” Christians are forbidden to argue in the presence of the Holy Spirit and "quench" The Spirit (e.g. To oppose the Truth "hurts the "feelings" of God" and Holy Spirit anointing is reduced and God begins to withdraw His presence because of sinning against Him and His WORD). 1Thess 5:19-21 “Do not stifle [quench] the Holy Spirit. Do not scoff at prophecies, but test everything that is said. Hold on to what is good.” Hold true to the leading of the Holy Spirit and inherit eternal life.
When Apostles Paul and Barnabas argued and caused a "division," then instead of everyone being healed, only some were healed in the remainder of the time of the ministry of Apostle Paul, all due to their failure to repent of the division and the end of them working together as a "team." God and Jesus have a defacto regulation/precept called "Team Jesus" based upon Mt 18:18-20. ALL Christians need to work together in teams or pairs, to help keep the "Face of Jesus" and be effective ministers and to overcome the demons as Jesus did by "partnering" with His Father to do His Father's Will on Earth as it is done in Heaven.
Lone Ranger Christians working by themselves, without a partner or coworker in Jesus, failing to be working as "Team Jesus" in spiritual harmony may prematurely become sick and die. "It is NOT good for man to be alone." All Christians need to work on a team for life, for as long as possible to have "life more abundantly" and God's Grace in their lives. "For where two or three gather in My Name, there am I with them.” All ministry teams of Jesus need Jesus on their team. It is God's Law and it is the command of Jesus requiring two or three Christians believing, in one accord and willing to serve together in the presence of Jesus regardless of the cost. "Seeing the Face of Jesus" results in reducing spiritual stress loads, miracles, healings, and bring His "rest for your souls."
Psalm 34:1-3 “I will bless the LORD at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth. My soul makes its boast in the LORD; let the humble hear and be glad. Oh, magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt His Name together! "Jesus is LORD!" God's Command continues to be in effect today in Colossians 3:17 "Do All in the Name of Jesus!"
As Christians praise and worship seeking the presence of Jesus in His "Shekinah Glory" or His presence in a spiritual sweet warm spot of the room, somewhere the Holy Spirit will manifest someplace in the midst of "two or three" Christians praising and worshipping seeking Jesus in His Name. Jesus promised He would be those spiritually touching and being of "one accord" with His Holy Spirit (Matthew 18:18-19). Looking spiritually at the spiritual warm spot of Jesus and His Face, that will be locally present with the those seeking to see His Face, although not actually a face, but the Glory cloud contains His Face somewhere within it. So look for His Glory Cloud and Jesus will help you lift the burdens of sin and heal you as you worship Him together in His presence. As Jesus helps you to see Him and to see His Glory (Exodus 33:18) Cloud and He will make it possible for you to see His Face and to see the Father in Heaven.
It is "new age occult" to construct a specific looking angel or Jesus. If God and Jesus gives a vision, that is fine, however with the "eyes of your heart" ask to see His presence in the sweet warm spiritual spot and He will help you recognize, occult or anything else that is NOT of Him.
PRAY FOR EACH OTHER THAT THE EYES OF OUR HEARTS MAY SEE HIM. Ephesians 1:17-19 "And asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in your knowledge of Him. I ask that the EYES OF YOUR HEART may be enlightened, so that you may know the hope of His calling, the riches of His glorious inheritance in the saints, and the surpassing greatness of His power to us who believe. He displayed this power in the working of His mighty strength…"
Prayer for all Believers, Christians, so "that all of them may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I am in You. May they also be in Us, so that the world may believe that You sent Me. I have given them the GLORY You gave Me, SO THAT THEY MAY BE ONE AS WE ARE ONE, I in them and You in Me, that they may be perfectly united, so that the world may know that You sent Me and have loved them just as You have loved Me" (John 17:21-23). The Glory Jesus gives makes us all "One" and helps Christians become One with Jesus and ultimately with His Father through Christ.
"God is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him" and not fantasizing and seeking false visions. The base line reference is being satisfied by seeing His Face, or more precisely the spiritual glory area Jesus promised to dwell in. As you dwell in His presence, make known your prayers to be refined as gold and be made pure and holy by His glory and power while looking at His Face. Jesus will deliver you from sin as "God is Love."
One has to try to give up their idols and lustful desires when looking at His presence in the spiritual warm spot for best results determining what His Truth is and His desires. Jesus and His Holy Spirit with His glory and power will help you to be changed from "glory to glory" into His image and likeness.
Apostle John said in 1John 3:2-3 "Beloved, we are now children of God, and what we will be has not yet been revealed. We know that when Christ appears, we will be like Him, for we will see Him as He is. And everyone who has this hope in Him PURIFIES himself, just as He is pure..." Personal sanctification is COMMANDED and NOT optional.
Psalm 34:4-7 “I sought the LORD, and He answered me and delivered me from all my fears. Those who look to Him are radiant, [As Moses and Stephen while he was being put to death by stoning he showed God’s Light, having the face of an angel reflected by Stephen's face] and their faces shall never be ashamed. This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him and saved him out of All his troubles. The angel of the LORD encamps around those who fear Him, and He delivers them.” Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Psalm 34:8-10 “Oh, taste and see that the LORD is good! Blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him! Oh, fear the LORD, you His saints, for those who fear Him have no lack! The young lions suffer want and hunger; but those who seek the LORD lack no good thing." Those who seek the Face of Jesus will "lack no good thing."
Psalm 34:8 “Taste and see that the Lord is Good.” Learning to taste and enjoy spiritual manna, food for the spirit and soul, is God and Christ’s gift to the Body of Christ. As one spiritually sees the “Glory Cloud” or spiritual “warm spot” in the midst of several believers meeting and “touching” in prayer in agreement the “Face of Jesus” there is Jesus and His Face somewhere in the “Glory Cloud” or spiritual “warm spot” in the midst of believers. Seeing the Face of Jesus as is COMMANDED in 1Cor 13:12 will gradually work to bring believer’s into ABSOLUTE conformity to the SPIRIT OF TRUTH as one works to stay in the presence of the Face of Jesus and God our Father. One has to be willing to abandon heretical denominational dogmas in order to have good results.
Hebrews 1:3 "And He is the radiance of His Glory and the exact representation of His nature, and upholds all things by the Word of His power When He had made purification of sins, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high." Jesus is the radiance of His Father's Glory. Seeing the glory-cloud or warm-spiritual location in the midst of worshipping Christians in one accord "touching and agreeing" is commanded for all Christians.
Ephesians 4 has written Jesus "gave gifts of men of Apostles." Christians do not need an Apostle, though it is best not to reject God's messengers as it is sin. Apostles "equip the saints." However Christians need to gather in Church with the Body of Christ to be equipped, weaponized with the WORD of God as its weapon which is done better by daily "seeing the Face of Jesus."
Seeing the Face of Jesus is a spiritual FAIL SAFE ABSOLUTE to turn from heresies and come into the ABSOLUTE TRUTH of Jesus and the HOLY SPIRIT. Staying in the presence of Jesus and seeing His Face is the absolute FAIL SAFE for doing His Will. God has graciously provided spiritual gifts to all believers and His power is critical to making one’s self available to regularly hear the Voice of Jesus. The gift of the Holy Spirit will gradually lead Spirit filled Christians as each one makes decisions in the presence of the Holy Spirit.
Attending church regularly is a matter of spiritual life and death and of great importance in this life and in the life to come in the Bride of Christ in New Jerusalem in the great congregation for all of eternity. Believers generally feel better spiritually in the spiritual protection provided in the gathering of the Body of Christ in church, becoming "one" with Him, as Jesus commanded in John 17. As Christians “stir up their spiritual gifts” and work to believe and spiritually see the Face of Jesus as the Assembly of God gathers as the Body of Christ, the Church is given grace and mercy of Jesus, as Christians abandon their own ideas and let the supernatural gift of the Mind of Christ prevail over one’s interests as “EVERY THOUGHT is brought into the obedience of the Mind of Christ.” As one has to leave the fellowship of the saints at times, always follow the leading of the Holy Spirit everywhere, at all times possible 24/7.
John 7:38 “He who believes in Me, as the Scripture said, ‘From his innermost being will flow [spiritual] RIVERS of Living Water.’” Christians MUST maintain continuous contact with the Head of the Body in order to have RIVERS of Living Water! Christians must learn to OBEY Jesus and learn to have spiritual Rivers of Life flowing out of them.
Especially for healings, it is critical to learn to remain in and under the Body's Headship of King Jesus the Rock whose [spiritual] RIVER satisfies the body and the souls of those who love and fear Him.
Ps 36:8 "They drink their fill of the abundance of Your house; And You give them to drink of the RIVER of Your delights."
Ps 46:4 "There is a [spiritual] RIVER whose Streams make glad the city of God [New Jerusalem], The holy dwelling places of the Most High."
Psalm 105:41 "He OPENED the ROCK and [spiritual] water FLOWED OUT; It ran in the dry places like a RIVER."
42 "For He remembered His HOLY WORD With Abraham His servant"
43 "And He brought forth His people with joy, His chosen ones with a joyful shout."
44 "He gave them also the LANDS of the NATIONS, That they might take possession of the fruit of the peoples’ labor."
45 "So that they might KEEP His STATUES And observe His Laws, Praise the LORD!"
Jesus always wanted a Christian America by U.S. Law so His people could safely teach the Gospel to the children in the presence of the Holy Spirit in the public schools. Instead of teaching lies, half-truths, immorality of LGBTQ and anti-science in the classrooms which destroy the minds and souls of the children.
To oppose Christian U.S. Law is TREASON to King Jesus and grieves the Holy Spirit.
The River of Healing of Ezekiel 47:1 "In my vision, the man [angel] brought me back to the entrance of the Temple. There I saw a STREAM flowing east from beneath the DOOR of the TEMPLE and passing to the right of the altar on its south side." There Jesus is the "Door" of the "Temple," and Jesus is the Temple of His Father. The stream that became the RIVER passed under the Door (being Jesus the Door), being from Christians who allow Jesus to be their Head and He is the Door flowing with the living streams and Rivers of life then, today and forever! To practice the presence of Jesus being the Head of each man (1Cor 11:3) and Jesus Christ is the head of the Church today is something that is learned today so it may be fulfilled throughout all of eternity in Jesus. Jesus calls all Christians to flow with His power today as we are "seated in Heavenly Places" (Eph 2:6-7) in Jesus. Learn to see His Face and let His Light and Power flow, always ruling and reigning with Him in our hearts and lives, which may also include in the government and in the public schools.
Believing King Jesus is reigning with absolute authority over all of Heaven and Earth is a matter of eternal life and blessings in this life. "To whom more is given, more is required." More spiritual maturity, becoming "perfect" as Jesus commanded results in more power.
The Philadelphia Church was commended by King Jesus for having "a little power." Revelation 3:8 "I know your deeds. Behold, I have put before you an open door which no one can shut, because you have a little power, and have Kept My Word, and you have Not denied My Name."
The Spiritual Rivers of Life flows today (John 7:37-38) and in eternity as written in Revelation 22:1-3 "Then the angel showed me a RIVER of the water of Life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb, down the middle of the main street of the city. On either side of the RIVER stood a TREE OF LIFE, producing twelve kinds of fruit and yielding a fresh crop for each month. And the leaves of the TREE are for the HEALING of the nations."
Adam and Eve being "Born from Above" by God their Father learned to let God's Power and spiritual RIVER of Life flow out of them for as long as they remained holy in the Garden of Eden.
1Cor 12 has written about the Body of Christ, which is made up of many parts, and just as the eye and nose all work together to give life, so the Body of Christ must by led by the Great Symphony Conductor Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit praying in "ONE ACCORD," so to pray for and supply each other their needs, as the Holy Spirit leads and provides.
It is commanded to fellowship and attend church and learn to become “One” as Jesus prayed all Christians would do in John 17 so the Body of Christ grows up into maturity and perfection of their Heavenly Father and each one learns to care for others as they care and love themselves helping to take care of each others in the Church.
John 17:11 “I am no longer in the world; and yet they themselves are in the world, and I come to You. Holy Father, keep them in Your Name, the Name which You have given Me, that they may be ONE even as We are [ONE]."
John 17:21 "That they may all be ONE; even as You, Father, are in Me and I in You, that they also may be in Us, so that the world may believe that You sent Me." Our testimony of Jesus, having love and the fruits of the Holy Spirit and having "rivers of living water flow" from Christians is all possible today and is commanded for all Christians to learn to do everyday.
John 17:22 “The glory which You have given Me I have given to them, that they may be One, just as We are ONE."
2Corinthians 3:18 "But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the Glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from Glory to Glory, just as from the Lord, the Spirit." "Mirror dimly" reflecting as a mirror His Face and His Glory (1Cor 13:12). When seeing the Face of Jesus as in a "mirror dimly," pray for the body of Christ locally and the global Body of Christ that each saint will be forgiven of their sins and they and you will be changed from "GLORY TO GLORY," as God's power flows out from Jesus so to save the Body of Christ from their sins and power to heal them "in the Name of Jesus" (Col 3:17).
John 17:20-23 “I do not ask on behalf of these alone, but for those also who believe in Me through their word; that they may all be one; even as You, Father, are in Me and I in You, that they also may be in Us, so that the world may believe that You sent Me. THE GLORY WHICH YOU HAVE GIVEN ME I HAVE GIVEN TO THEM, that they may be One, just as We are 0ne; I in them and You in Me, that they may be PERFECTED IN UNITY, so that the world may know that You sent Me, and Loved them, even as You have Loved Me."
Ephesians 4:13 "Until we all attain to the UNITY OF THE FAITH, and of the KNOWLEDGE OF THE SON OF GOD, to a mature man, to the measure of the stature which belongs to the fullness of Christ."
John 17:20-23 explains The GLORY of Christ is manifested at each service and hopefully wherever two or three brethren are gathered worshipping that Christians will be "PERFECTED IN UNITY." Jesus, His Presence or angel of His Presence is somewhere in the Shekinah Glory manifested as Christians worship and stir up their Charisma gifts. Christians must try to repent of their sins and seeing His Face we have those burdens of sin lifted off as Jesus said, “My yoke is easy and My burden is light” Matthew 11:30. The spiritual burden of Christ is light and spiritual work in His yoke is easy.
It is a learning process to be conformed to the Spirit of God through His Son every church must practice. Think of the example of dancing in pairs as ONE dancer with the Great King moving together in great harmony and beauty, or the marriage act to conceive progeny (Hebrew word cleaving to God (Deuteronomy 13:4), spiritual movement in perfect harmony, as there is no flesh in heaven as Jesus said), moving in holy spiritual love in conformity to the Holy Spirit of God our Father and Jesus forever. Singing "in the spirit" harmoniously in church is an example of spiritually becoming ONE. Whatever you receive in Rhema WORD or see in visions and spiritually hearing the WORDS the Spirit saying, do it immediately or later as the Holy Spirit leads you.
Jesus said, "If you Love Me, You will OBEY Me!" Jesus loves total obedience in becoming "ONE" as He is ONE for good reasons (2Corinthians 10:6)... This the great "dream" of God and King Jesus, of the Bride of Christ. We are made in His "image and likeness." Old men and women will "dream" and young men and women will see visions. We are to manifest the "Dream" of God the Father and King Jesus His Son to "establish His Kingdom on Earth." Then come the promises of the Millennium rule of Christ, as Christians obey and faithfully follow the leading of the Holy Spirit and establish Christian nations and obey the Commands and Laws of God and King Jesus.
The choice for the USA is either the Dream of God and King Jesus, or suffer the coming Wrath of God on the USA and Sons of Disobedience. Punishing the American harlot churches who have corrupted Christians around the Earth with false doctrines, including the "pie in the sky" futurist, pre-trib version of Christianity when King Jesus wanted America to be a Christian nation by U.S. Law to save the children and to disciple nations on Earth (commanded in Mt 28:18 in the Great Commission).
Matthew 18:18-20 is often twisted by churches by wishful thinking Christians. The correct rendering shows it is ONLY within the WORD, and consistent with the Will of God, will answers to prayers be granted by our Heavenly Father and Jesus.
Matthew 18:18-20 Amplified Bible (AMP) v18 "I assure you and most solemnly say to you, whatever you bind [forbid, declare to be improper and unlawful] on earth shall have [PREVIOUSLY] been bound in heaven, and whatever you loose [permit, declare lawful] on earth shall have [ALREADY HAS] been loosed in heaven." v19 “Again I say to you, that if two believers on earth agree [that is, are of ONE MIND, in harmony] about anything that they ask [within the will of God], it will be done for them by My Father in heaven. v20 For where two or three are gathered in My Name [meeting together as My followers], I Am there among them.” Jesus Honors His Name and performs and activates His Promises and becomes "One" with His believers in His Presence who are spiritual touching and agreeing for His Will to be done on Earth (AUTHORIZED IN THE NAME OF JESUS) as it is already being done or completed in Heaven and it achieves wonderful results here on Earth!
All Christians should be Charismatic, not stifling or quenching the manifestation of the Holy Spirit, but enjoying the expressing of spiritual gifts from God and Jesus and be in "one accord" (Philippians 2:8). Continue seeking in prayer the “greater” spiritual gifts (1Cor 13:24; 14:1). Learning to operate in the Holy Spirit’s Charisma gifts is helpful for us to learn to “worship God in "Spirit and in Truth.” Conforming to His Holy Spirit within us, is the prayer of Jesus in John 17:21-23 (Genesis 1:26). God is Spirit and conforming Christian into His image is the desire and request of Jesus and His Father. Ultimately the Father in Heaven will have His reward of whatever percentage of Christians' spirit that successfully express the Father's perfect Will forever (1Cor 15:28).
Philippians 2:2 "Complete my joy by being of the same-mind, having the same-love, being in full-accord and of one-mind." Christians are commanded to be in "one accord" with the Mind of Christ, the Love of God and Jesus.
Acts 4:32 "All the believers were one in heart and mind. None of the Christians claimed that any of their possessions was their own, but they shared everything they had." Due to the fact Christians had traveled from all ten provinces of the Roman Empire to attend the Pentecost Feast and left most of their possessions behind they shared whatever they could with each other. Note they were commanded to be one heart and one mind of Christ.
Romans 8:14 “For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God.” Being "led by the Spirit is important for seeing the Face of Jesus. The full manifestation of the sons of God in Christ will happen in the future life to come in eternity in our immortal bodies. For the duration of this temporal life in these mortal bodies, “Let your LIGHT shine before others.” "You are the Temple of God" and "God is Light." Let God's Light shine out of you so others may see. As Apostle Paul wrote Pastor Timothy to “stir up the gift within you.” It takes work to stir up one’s spiritual gifts, but the result is supernatural light and more spiritual energy as Christians are in His Presence spiritually “touch and agree” according to the Will of our Heavenly Father. Jesus said, "You are the Light of the World." Let His Light manifest so others may see it and be drawn to you because they sometimes like God's Light and may desire to hear the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
As Christians see the Face of Jesus and are submitting spiritually to Him, spiritual power and the Judgment of Jesus flows out of our bodies as Jesus felt power flow out of Him (Mark 5:30; Luke 8:46). This manifestation of God’s power flowing through Christ out from our body. The temple of God and Jesus, is a wonderful gift of grace for Christians that obey Him. We are commanded to spiritually work so to be “filled to overflowing with the Holy Spirit.”
As God's POWER flows out of Jesus Christ in Christians as each keeps their spiritual eyes on Jesus by looking to the glory cloud or warm spiritual place when two or three Christians worship God through His Son Jesus, then God's RIVER OF POWER FLOWS OUT to local areas. Ultimately God and Jesus America had become a Christian nation where His LIGHT AND POWER FLOWS OUT TO DISCIPLE THE NATIONS. It would have happened already if Christian leaders had not opposed Christian U.S. Laws and if Christians chosen to reign with Christ Jesus in the U.S. Government, in various elected offices and in the public schools.
Hebrews 2:8 "YOU HAVE PUT ALL THINGS IN SUBJECTION UNDER HIS FEET." For in subjecting all things to Him, He left nothing that is not subject to Him. But for now we do not yet see all things subjected to Him." It is the command of Jesus to spiritually work to let King Jesus reign in their lives. As all Christians are subjects to King Jesus. It took centuries of gradual transition, Christians subjecting everything possible to the reign of King Jesus. All Christians possible, "praying always," working to see the Face of Jesus, letting His power flow, for Christians to finally see the answer to their prayers, being the conversion of the Roman Empire to Christianity in 312 A.D. Reigning with King Jesus and subjecting everything to Him is a gradual process. It involves looking at His Face (1Cor 13:12) praying and letting His power flow through you as "rivers of living water."
It is the responsibility of each Christian to overcome the evil one with Love, submitting first to God, resisting the devil and then he will flee. Victorious Christians are commanded to "rule and reign with Christ" now in this life. First in one's heart, hands and work, and in all aspects of one's life.
Psalm 8:6 "You make Him to rule over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under His feet."
1Corinthians 15:25 "For He must reign until He has put all His enemies under His feet."
1Corinthians 15:27 "For 'God has put everything under His feet.' Now when it says that everything has been put under Him, this clearly does not include the One who put everything under Him."
Looking to the "Face of Jesus," empowers Christians to rule and reign with Him in this life.
Romans 3:31 "Do we then nullify the Law through faith? May it never be! On the contrary, we establish the Law." When it is important to establishing the Kingdom of God and Christ with U.S. Law. See Bible Apologetics for the Kingdom of God and Christ at ChristianAmendment.com and other important doctrines. "Do we then cancel the law through faith? Absolutely not! On the contrary, we uphold the law." Christians often lack true "Faith" to save the children and to save America by their opposing Christian U.S. Law as many Christian Leaders and Lawyers do. God's coming Wrath is Not asleep! Failure to overcome the devil, means we fail to work with King Jesus so He may reign over the USA today. It is the sins of unbelief, rebellion, and sacrificing the minds and souls of the nation's children. In fact it will become national suicide, culminating in WW3. Christians should have done everything possible to save as many children as possible, believing King Jesus is reigning in the Name of Jesus...
Matthew 5:17 "Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill." Jesus came to fulfill God's Law, so Christians would have grace to repent of opposing the Commands of Jesus and repent of opposing His Kingdom on Earth. America should have been a Christian nation by U.S. Law a long time ago...
Romans 8:17-25, especially verse 23, clearly shows the manifestation of the sons of God is referring to the manifestation of the saints in their immortal glorified bodies each will receive at the Second Coming of Christ in the Resurrection. However in the meantime Jesus said, “Let your light shine before others” (Matthew 5:16a).
Jude 1:13 "They are wild waves of the sea, foaming up their shame; wandering stars, for whom blackest darkness has been reserved forever." Jude 1:13 has written the lost have a little light as "wandering stars." All people having been created in the image and likeness of God have a little of the light of Jesus, as their soul shines in the darkness of their sin, however true Christians must choose the Light of God and radiate His Light to a lost and dying world as Jesus commanded.
Jesus said, "I Am the Light of the World." Let Jesus and His Light in you shine brightly through you to a lost and dying world.
Matthew 4:14-15 “You are the [spiritual] LIGHT of the world! A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people LIGHT a LAMP and put it under a basket. Instead, they set it on a lamp-stand, and IT GIVES LIGHT TO EVERYONE in the house.” Christians today who diligently seek and spiritually see the Face of Jesus as is COMMANDED (1Cor 13:12) of true Christians, will spiritually radiate the LIGHT of God shown in the Face of Jesus as a “city on a hill." Just as Jesus on the Mount Transfiguration radiated spiritual light, Christians at a lesser level of brightness will reflect His spiritual light that will radiate and reflect in their faces the Light of God and by His angels who minister as Jesus COMMANDS!
The bleeding woman had faith, and as a result the power of God to heal flowed out from Jesus, but He did not know to whom the healing power flowed to. While Christians see the Face of Jesus, stirring up our charisma gifts, the power of God will flow, and it will feel wonderful at times, but just as the woman who was bleeding was healed by her faith, it is sometimes the faith of others why the healing power of the Holy Spirit is noticeably flowing greatly, or at a lower level of flow. The flow of power is usually dependent upon our faith and upon the faith of others who are also seeking the Will of the Father and have faith enough to obey Him faithfully in His presence.
Notice that Christ Jesus did not have to make the decision for the woman who “touched” Him to be healed, “two or three touching,” will be enough, with true faith, to obtain the Father’s Will. Christians sometimes need not make the decisions what to do when God’s Power is flowing. It is only necessary to be “Led by the Spirit” and when seeing visions, as Jesus did what He saw in the visions what His Father was doing, so we also are to do what Jesus did (John 5:19) and make the decision to obey the visions of what He is doing, imitating and performing what we see Jesus doing in the vision (John 5:19 our example is Jesus Himself of how we are to be led by the Holy Spirit). Jesus did not have to speak in unknown languages because He is the only one that will ever be in the presence of His Father, and absolute all Christians are to be "hidden in Christ." Because of the sinful nature of daily fighting the "old man" praying the Will of God our Father through Jesus His Son is His desire and command for all who will obey Him by praying in unknown tongues.
Most of the time, no decision is necessary except to make the decisions necessary to stay in the presence of Jesus and work spiritually daily seeing His Face and speak the oracles of God. “You may all prophesy” remains God’s promise to all believers today! Paul noted that others prayers for him were necessary in order to speak the Oracles of God. "Whoever speaks, as one who speaks oracles of God; whoever serves, as one who serves by the strength that God supplies—in order that in everything God's WORD is may be glorified through Jesus Christ. To him belong glory and dominion forever and ever, Amen" 1Peter 4:11.
While spiritually seeing the Face of Jesus:
(1.) "You can all prophesy" 1Cor 14:31.
(2.) Use the "Spirit of Prophecy" (Rev 19:10) as a weapon in spiritual warfare and prophesy all of the Promises of God written in the Holy Scriptures.
(3.) "Decree and Declare" a Scripture promise of God and Jesus in His Faith and it will be done in the Name of Jesus. "For it is the Spirit of prophecy who bears testimony to Jesus."
(4.) Faithfully bear Witness to the WORD of Jesus.
(5.) Repeat steps 1-4 as many times as faith and the Holy Spirit lead you. Expect a miracle answer to your prayers. Daniel had to pray for 21 days before God's answer arrived. Then the Archangel Michael of God spoke to Daniel the deliverance for Israel he believed for. The answer of Jesus will arrive if it is of God's faith in your heart.
Teach the saints to prophesy. As a beginning I suggest having the saints reading aloud and prophesy the Holy Scriptures, picking out anything that "jumps out at them," catches their attention that the Holy Spirit is leading them to prophesy. Prophesying the Words of Jesus "Red Letter" portions and Book of Psalms is ideal as Daniel had to pray steadfastly for 21 days for the prophecy of God to deliver Israel from Babylon after 70 years of exile and punishment. Learning to be "Led by the Spirit" and learning to prophesy is of extreme importance and commanded for ALL mature Christians (1Cor 14:31).
For more mature Christians John 5:30 has written "By Myself I can do nothing; I judge only as I hear [My Heavenly Father speak], and My judgment is just, for I seek not to please Myself but Him who sent Me." The ultimate goal of Jesus is to conform us into His Father's through being conformed into His own "image and likeness" including in what words we prophesy (John 8:28; 12:49; 14:10).
Although "are all prophets?" Obviously not, however those who seek the greater gifts 1Cor 12:31 should be careful to accept the gifts, including becoming prophets today, and learn from Him and from other prophets, how to use them. Jesus gives spiritual gifts to the saints for the edification of the church whom He loves (Ephesians 4:8; 11-13).
Acts 3:25 "You are the sons of the prophets." The meaning is, not that they were literally the "descendants" of the prophets, but that they were their "disciples," "pupils," "followers." They professed to follow the prophets as their teachers and guides. Today Christians prophesy they follow the teachings of King Jesus and the Holy Spirit, but the heresies of most churches remain as their idols as they love their sins more than saving the nation's children being ruined and turned from believing in God and Jesus.
1John 3:9 "No one who is born of God practices sin, because His SEED abides in him; and he cannot sin, because he is born of God." King Jesus is the PROPHET whose seed in Christians makes us His Son. Some teach Jesus is giving a new DNA, but in reality that is only for the few that need DNA healing miracles. God is speaking of a spiritual "DNA" and generally not a physical "DNA."
1John 3:6 "Anyone who continues to live in Him will not sin. But anyone who keeps on sinning does not know Him or understand who He Is." If "Christians" go on sinning, they cannot prophesy with the Holy Spirit. Therefore "all may prophesy" is only true for those who are not practicing sin and are following the leading of the Holy Spirit who empowers believers.
God and Jesus gave some to be "Prophets." Prophets have the potential of speaking the oracles of God, as Apostle Paul and myself have asked for prayers to speak His WORD. However as one may notice many prophets end up believing in heresies and false doctrines and must spiritually work harder to see the Face of Jesus (1Cor 13:12) and thus learn from Him to not speak incorrectly. Just as one prophet in the O.T. was killed by a lion for listening to lies, falsehoods, imaginations of an old foolish prophet, so today's prophets are under greater judgment for prophesying amiss.
1Cor 3:2 "Brothers, I could not address you as spiritual, but as worldly—as infants in Christ. I gave you milk, not solid food, for you were not yet ready for solid food. In fact, you are still not ready, for you are still worldly. For since there is jealousy and dissension among you, are you not worldly? Are you not walking in the way of man?…" "God is Spirit" and learning to conform one's spirit to His "Image and Likeness" is required for a better blessings in eternity.
I have been recently visited by Jesus and His angel to teach apostles and prophets to wade out into Ezekiel's River of spiritual Power and be washed cleansed from our sins by His blood. The river comes from the Father and throne of through King Jesus (the Door of the Temple) and is there for saints Jesus calls to wade out into His River. "Out of your bellies shall flow RIVERS of living water."
Prophet Kim Clement's surviving daughter recently posted a prophecy stating Pres. Trump would have eight years as president. Thank God, Praise the Lord! Hallelujah!
The fatal flaw of many churches is denying the fulfilled truth of Rev 11:17 where Jesus began to rule and to use His great power was an accomplished fact, circa 70 A.D. King Jesus has been reigning over the kings and nations on Earth for millennia. It takes time to make His enemies into His footstool because Jesus is not willing any should be needlessly lost and damned if it was possible with His Father.
There exists an earthquake fault-line down the middle of the Mount of Olives where Jesus probably came down, in a similar manner as in Acts 1 from the clouds, with an "attitude," and fulfilled the prophecy to return before Apostle John died, also fulfilling the prophecy of Zechariah 4:14.
"Jacob's Trouble," also called "The Great Tribulation" is a reference to the fulfillment of Dt 28 curses promised to those who broke their covenant with God and King Jesus the Messiah.
Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us—for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who is hanged on a tree” (Galatians 3:13). However, Christians seem to be spiritually blind to the fact America should have been a Christian nation along time ago. In fact they turn a blind eye or harden their spiritual hearts about the irreparable harm the nation's public schools are turning almost all the children away from believing in Jesus by the time they graduate. King Jesus expects repentance and not embracing idols of false eschatology deceiving each other that the fall of the USA was inevitable when in fact it was the fault of the Christians, including Woodrow Wilson, Harry Truman and almost all politicians and Christians for the last half century.
In Luke 19:27 Jesus promises to slaughter those in rebellion to Him, and have everyone killed, who rejects His reign on Earth, such as the Christian lawyers and leaders of America today who oppose Christian U.S. Law and His Kingdom on Earth. Every Christian at some point of their relationship with Jesus, intuitively knows America should have been a Christian nation a long time ago and should have been a Christian nation today...
Now, and back in 1968 A.D. when the End of America was prophesied. God "Loves Mercy" however there must be repentance from their rebellion opposing Christian U.S. Law. Prophet Kim Clement prophesied the USA economy and general standard of living would continue to exist, however slowing declining, for twenty years. There was a "hard stop" at twenty years by the Holy Spirit. Perhaps at that time, the "Great Tribulation" for the United States and its death will occur... These are not the "Last Days" of the Book of Revelation, but are actually the "Last Days" of the USA and most life on Earth.
This demonstrates when looking at the "Face of Jesus" that one must be flexible in discarding false doctrines and heresies. Seeing His Face is Good, however disobeying Him is bad and may result in severe chastisements and God's judgment, if there is no repentance.
The basic point is the transition of Heaven and Earth to the reign of King Jesus (Mt 28:18), transferring God's authority from Satan, destroying the works of darkness. Satan has already lost his authority over the nations... Satan was cast out of Heaven with his minions, and has been demoted from "ruler of the Earth" to the "Prince of the power of the air." Jesus is reigning with absolute authority and with great power His Father has given Him!
It is imperative to witness Jesus to Christian Leaders, including to Pres. Donald Trump, to the USA. In order to survive, the USA is commanded to work to save the children by establishing the "Kingdom of God and Christ" in the USA by laws as the Christian America Amendment, at ChristianAmendment.com
The proposed Christian Amendment, is a "Freedom of Conscience" Amendment and it is truly a matter of life and death to enact it into U.S. Law. There is no religious test to hold public office and it restrains government from having a state church. The state church which was so corrupted in the early American colonies the Founding Fathers mostly believed the Bible was a "fairy-tale" and the government continues to have that sinful attitude today that their state religion of Civil Government is acceptable to God and Jesus when in fact it is so terrible the end of mankind in the Earth's northern hemisphere is coming as a testimony of the Wrath of God.
The ChristianAmendment.com has Bible apologetics that categorically shows the need to establish the Kingdom of God and Christ on Earth in America or perish forever! After 40 days of additional instruction on the Kingdom of God by Jesus Himself, the Apostles knew there were suppose to have Christian nations, starting immediately they hoped, but eventually there would exist Christian nations as Jesus said in His response. It is the prophecy of Jesus. The churches need to repent of theological heresies and keep their spiritual eyes on Jesus 1Cor 13:12.
Jesus has absolute authority over Heaven and Earth and He has used His authority and power to confirm His Word and the New Covenant with Christians.
It is a matter of life and death for Christians and the Church to believe Jesus is ALREADY reigning over the Earth's leaders and nations with absolute authority and power (Rev 1:5 Gk Archon). Before the cross Satan was the ruler, Gk Archon. After the cross Jesus was the absolute ruler of the nations, (Gk Archon).
"Everything that does not come from faith is sin" Romans 14:23. Faith is a choice to turn away from spiritual darkness to God's Faith and to the spiritual Light of God. Faith is turning away from your own desires to His Faith and seeking His desires and Will in your life.
When the power of God is present (Luke 5:17), supernatural healing for one’s soul and physical body is available for those whom have faith and are willing to obey God and Jesus.
When possible, Jesus always sent His disciples out in pairs 24/7, teamwork touching in spiritual agreement taking the presence of Jesus with them to minister. Including the pair of Apostles Paul and Barnabas who were to called out together by the Holy Spirit in a Rhema Word to spiritually work together as a team and ALL WERE HEALED in the first part of their ministry, as they were faithful to be a team and work together! Later, after they broke their vow to minister together as a pair, as they were originally called to do by the Holy Spirit. Divisions cause sickness and Apostle Paul became sick and many were not healed due to divisions (1Cor 11:30), although some were healed. Breaking vows made to Lord Jesus to love each other and work together harmoniously with Christians He calls for you to work together with. Failure to do this is sin, and there will be major consequences for having unfulfilled vows (Acts 5:1-11; 18:18).
Christians are commanded to work in pairs 24/7, “two or three” touching spiritually, bonding in ONE Soul, ONE Mind of Christ, ONE purpose results in clearly hearing the Voice of Jesus, and if faithful to obey what He says to do, then it will result in perfect results, healing all, miracles, signs and wonders. It is every Christian’s duty to “seek the greater gifts” of God, while seeking and seeing the Face of Jesus as He desires (1Cor 12:11) for He gives gifts of Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors and Teachers TODAY to equip the Body of Christ and in churches (Eph 4:8).
All Christians are commanded to daily seek His Presence and see the Face of Jesus, listening to His Voice and spiritually submit to Him and be conformed into His “image and likeness.”
Aaron's Blessing, JEHOVAH MAKE HIS FACE SHINE ON YOU! Numbers 6:24-26 “‘The LORD JEHOVAH bless you, and keep you; The LORD JEHOVAH MAKE HIS FACE SHINE ON YOU, And be gracious to you; The LORD JEHOVAH [meaning Jesus' Salvation] lift up His countenance upon you, And give you Peace.’” Jesus gives His Peace today, especially after perhaps in as little of twenty minutes prayer time in what prayer warriors call a “break-through,” which is similar spiritually to obtaining the “second wind” of runners. However after the “breakthrough” or “second wind” spiritually is achieved and realized, then the group prayers usually end prematurely. Christians don’t seem to realize, the peace of Jesus, the spiritual relief or “second wind” of spiritual “rest,” is sometimes just the beginning of hours and days of prayers Jesus is calling Christians to do in teams and groups, making it possible to be with His presence, just as Christ, who is our example prayed “all night.” The “breakthrough” usually signifies the arrival of the presence of an angel from the Lord Jesus who is “lifting” the spiritual load off us and off all those praying to see His Face.
Jesus called a Christian sister recently to three forty-day fasts with only water and then gave her a Book of Acts type of life, a miracle based ministry and experiences in foreign nations with similar healings, signs, wonders and miracles resulting in her with Jesus giving healings, and life more abundantly through her to many people.
Apostle Paul said he spoke in the gifted charisma prayer language of "tongues" more than all the Corinthian Christians. To "pray in the Spirit" is to pray in Tongues the prayer language the gift of the Holy Spirit gives to Christians. Paul wrote, "I thank God I speak in Tongues more than all of you" 1Cor 14:18. To simultaneously pray together in unknown languages, and also with understanding is also God's Will (1Cor 13:18).
"I will pray with my spirit, but I will also pray with my understanding; I will sing with my spirit, but I will also sing with my understanding" 1Cor 14:15. Multitasking by praying in "unknown tongues" by His Spirit and praying with one's understanding is God's Will for a healthy relationship as Apostle Paul had with Him.
John 3:14-16 “And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up; that whoever believes may in Him have eternal life.” “For God so Loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish, but have eternal life.” Whoever looked to see the serpent on the pole of Moses was healed (symbolic of looking upon the Face of Christ bearing sins of others Hebrews 9:28), so Christians today, who obey Him and look upon the Face of Jesus, who was lifted up on the Cross, are healed, made whole, saved from their sins and many will receive eternal life in Him as they are faithful to persevere daily in seeking His Face and His fellowship. "Do not grieve the Holy Spirit!"
A very important and critically necessary aspect of actually seeing the Face of God is to actually be holy in one’s personal spirit and personal behavior. Hebrews 12:14 “Work at living in peace with everyone, and work at living a holy life, for those who are not holy will Not See the Lord.” Not seeing the Face of Jesus results in losing out with God. Anyone that remains “Born Again” on the “Last Day” at the time of the first resurrection will be saved. However, there are severe consequences resulting from continuing to sin (1John 5:18). It is commanded to turn away from sin, (sin in Greek is Hamartia turning away from being led by the Holy Spirit) that may lead to losing one’s “Born From Above” spiritual status and continuing to sin will result in eternal damnation. Failure to seek the Face of Jesus may result in eternal suffering and exile forever in darkness.
“Be Holy as I AM Holy.” In fact, God says He will leave His people, unless they seek His Presence, His Face and be holy! Hosea 5:15 “I WILL GO AWAY and return to My place until they acknowledge their guilt and seek My face; In their affliction, they will earnestly seek Me.” It is a matter of life and death in this life to daily seek the presence and Face of God and also a matter of eternal life, or eternal death in eternity, to continually seek the Face of Jesus (1Cor 13:12). The context Hosea 5:15 is all types of sins that are also punished by God and Jesus in the N.T. “The wages of sin is death” in the Old Testament and “The wages of sin is death” continues as the penalty of continuing to sin in the New Covenant.
Hosea 5:15 “I will go away and return to My place, Until they acknowledge their guilt [sins, transgressions of the Law of God and Jesus] and Seek My Face; In their affliction, they will earnestly seek Me.” In afflictions from God and Jesus, some will seek their Heavenly Father, the God of all comfort, and many others will not seek Him, but turn away and go down into a path of spiritual darkness.
Under Moses, Israel said they did not want to see the Face of God by telling Moses they did not want to hear the Voice of God and told Moses to cover His face so the light of God's presence would be hidden from them. Today the harlot American Christians neither want to see the Face of Jesus nor listen to the Voice of Jesus, as they desire sin and the temporary “pleasures” of the kingdom of darkness. This is the true reason why the Name of God YHWH has been erased and LORD substituted in the Bible over 7,000 times! God desires His Name to be revered and used, just as friends also like their Name used. There are legal covenantal or contractural reasons why the Name of Jesus must be used (Col 3:17).
God gives His Grace to see His Face, however He will not endure being in the presence of spiritually sinning people forever and will gradually withdraw from them. There eventually comes a time for His Judgment where if the sinner does not want the presence of God, nor See His Face that God will withdraw Himself, as Hosea 5:15 has written. Jesus has never changed in His Judgment for sin which is "The Second Death" of the "Lake of Fire," eternal exile, suffering and “outer darkness.” For some people will be eternal torment in the “second death is the Lake of Fire” that Jesus spoke of, that had been created for Satan and the devils. Jesus said the Lake of Fire has been already created and it would be the end of many peoples spiritual journey as people stubbornly refused to repent of their sins!
Matthew 25:41 “Then He will also say to those on His left, ‘Depart from Me, accursed ones, into the eternal fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels.’” Matthew 8:29 also has written the torment of the devils will continue forever. God “Loves mercy” and His mercy will be given in the “Lake of Fire” as the parable has written of the “Lazarus and the Rich man” the rich man accepting his punishment of eternal suffering as an acceptable consequence for his many sins of failing to seek God’s Will for his life and for not doing what Jesus would have wanted him to do. God breathed His Spirit, His life and His essence into Adam. God cannot destroy Himself and His infinite Spirit. Asking God for oblivion is irrational as He cannot destroy His Spirit or end the basic essence of His non-corporeal body. He would have to destroy Himself in order to end the existence of the spirits of people condemned to eternal exile and suffering without His life giving Presence. The false doctrine of “souls annihilation” is heretical, unbiblical, contradicting the clear Scriptures indicating the coming ETERNITY of suffering in the prison where Jesus is the only one who has the only “keys of death and hell” for the ETERNAL punishment of “Second Death.” It will be for ALL those who have rejected His Face and Presence in this life. Jesus having the “keys of death” means He has the power to release from death those who receive the gift of salvation and eternal life with Him that He offers. Also the "sting of death" giving believers a more comfortable transition from life to sleep in the LORD Jesus until the resurrection.
Romans 11:32 "For God has imprisoned everyone in disobedience so he could have mercy on everyone." Just as God and Jesus reduced the number of days of the Great Tribulation (Mt 24:32) so some would survive, so there will be reduced judgment for many in the Lake of Fire because of His Namesake.
All of the problems of America and the harlot Christians are largely due to their continual failure of successfully seeking the Face and Presence of God and Jesus 24/7. If one is actually looking at the Face of God and Jesus then it will be easier to follow the leadings and changing of the anointing of God, as one submits to Him, making an effort to conform one's spirit and mind to the supernatural gift of the "mind of Christ."
Example: Worship God and Jesus, See His Face, Praying for others and the "bubble" of anointing will grow larger as the Kingdom of God grows larger and larger.
In fact, God will greatly increase Christians’ troubles and afflictions with more and more greater and increasing severe afflictions, with wave after wave of increasing spiritual tribulations, unless we earnestly seek His Face daily, repenting of our sins, and most importantly, working spiritually to stay in His presence and working daily seeing His Face (Dt 28 has written God's curses will increase in magnitude and in frequency until all those who refuse to obey Him will perish, Hosea 5:15; 1Cor 13:12).
Amos 5:4,14 “This is what the LORD says to Israel: ‘Seek Me and Live!’” It is a matter of “Life and Death” to seek the Face of Jesus and His presence where “two or three Christians are gathered” so that Christians may live the abundant Life and in Him have everlasting life.
John 6:29 “Jesus answered and said to them, 'This is the WORK of God, that you BELIEVE in Him whom He has sent.’” It is hard spiritual work to believe and vigorously seek His presence and see His Face every day of our lives. God expects more of those to whom more is given, and commanded to produce more results and produce more fruit of the Holy Spirit and work to have more of God and Christ's "works accomplished before the foundation of the world."
Psalm 27:7-9 “Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice, And be gracious to me and answer me. When You said, “SEEK MY FACE," MY HEART SAID TO YOU, "Your Face, O LORD, I shall seek." Do not hide Your Face from me, Do not turn Your servant away in anger; You have been my help; Do not abandon me nor forsake me, O God of my salvation!”
Failure to seek The Face of God and Jesus and failure to seek the Kingdom of God on Earth are important reasons why the American churches are shrinking in numbers and losing the children of the church to the kingdom of darkness (Hosea 5:15).
Failure to seek The Face of Jesus results in increased risk of being distracted by the things and spirits of the world and eventually become "ensnared," mastered by supernatural powers, seducing spirits, partaking of the sins of others and losing the “Mind of Christ” by the power of “the deceitfulness of sin.”
Consider Peter walking on water with Jesus, the moment Peter took his eyes off of focusing on Jesus, then, being distracted, Peter began to sink in the water, and Peter cried for help from Jesus to save him and so should all Christians cry for help to save us and to learn to keep our spiritual eyes and focus on seeing Jesus (1Cor13:12).
King Saul failed to enquire for God’s Will and seek guidance from Jehovah. The price of failure was death, and so as a consequence God put him to death (1Chronicles 10:14). Most Churches today are not paying their personal price of daily seeking the Face of Jesus and the guidance of the Holy Spirit and enquire God's Will in their lives, or America would have been a Christian nation by U.S. Law!
Instead of serving God, the USA has been on God’s list of enemy nations persecuting Christianity and passing antichrist laws banning proselytizing in the workplace and prohibiting the Gospel of Jesus being taught in faith as the empirical absolute Truth and as the example of good moral character in the public schools, as it is the ONLY ultimate solution to effectively help the children throughout their lives forever. Churches are required to seek the daily guidance of the Holy Spirit and King Jesus, or suffer the consequences of sinning as King Saul who paid the ultimate price of failing to seek to obey the Will of God. King Saul failed to seek the Face of God and as a result wiped out The Tabernacle Levites and their families. Similarly for America to drive Jesus out of the public schools, the internet, media, and most of the culture will result in wiping out, erasing Christianity and persecution of most true disciples of Jesus.
Isaiah 53:2 “My Servant grew up in the LORD's PRESENCE like a tender green shoot, like a root in dry ground. There was nothing beautiful or majestic about His physical appearance, nothing to attract us to Him.” Jesus is our example for how to raise the children and Scripture has written it is required of parents to keep the presence of the LORD Jesus and the Holy Spirit around the children, at all costs to one’s personal time and lifestyle interests.
Christians should always have a godly attitude they are responsible to disciple the children to train them in “THE WAY” of God! God and Jesus Christ being “THE WAY” of God to educate and disciple the children in preK-12 and in ALL the public schools.
It is supremely important to maintain the PRESENCE of the LORD Jesus and THE HOLY SPIRIT in every Christian’s home. It is a matter of LIFE and DEATH to keep the presence of the Holy Spirit in one’s household, whatever the cost in one’s spiritual life, for in order to train up the children in the PRESENCE the HOLY SPIRIT for their best possible future for their lives on earth and in the Life to Come in the New Heaven and New Earth!
Jesus promises “where two or three believers are meeting in the Name of Jesus, there I Am in their midst” Mt 18:20. Christians need to seek His presence and stop talking about His "soon coming."
Importantly when Jesus is spiritually present, there is also the presence of His Face. Though Christians usually do not always spiritually clearly “see” a human figure representing Jesus with a nose and ears in visions, but spiritually see the warm presence of the Holy Spirit manifested especially in the worship of Jesus. In the warm comforting presence of The Glory of the LORD Jesus, is His Face. “God Dwells in the Praises of His People” (Psalm 22:3) so praise Jesus in public or praise Him in private and Jesus will meet you in prayer and help you to see His Face (although His facial features may not appear). As you praise Him in the congregation of the Church you may be privileged to enter into the GLORY CLOUD of Jesus and receive His HEALING, His Charisma GIFTS, His grace and His mercy.
Jesus promised we would see Him after the resurrection and for those who believe we will see Him clearly forever (Mt 16:16; Rev 22:4).
“Seek the greater [spiritual] gifts” (1Cor 12:31), “stir up” your charisma gifts (2Timothy 1:6-7), King David worshiped God everywhere, regardless of circumstances and not just in the Temple then, or today in a church building. “Boldly [spiritually] WORK to enter into His presence in the Holy of Holies.” Listen to Jesus and do what He says to do and honor Him before men and especially before the children. Children are especially perceptive spiritually seeing whether adults are honoring the Truth of the Holy Spirit without hypocrisy, or imitate the hypocrisy, because of the adults' sin of saying they obey Jesus when in fact they don’t in their lives. The sin of throwing the children into the government schools to be psychologically conditioned and sacrifice their souls, minds, turning them away from Jesus so to accept the state religions and immoral perversions of LGBTQ are taught as normal behaviors, eventually the antichrist public schools will result in the spiritual death of most of the children, and the coming death of the nation. Failing to believing King Jesus is reigning with full authority and power is the sin of unbelief and rebellion.
As Apostle John wrote in 1John 3:2 “Dear friends, we are already God's children, but He has not yet shown us what we will be like when Christ appears. But we do know that we will be like Him, for then we shall see Him as He really is.” Christ has already received His glorified immortal body and Apostle John writes we do not know what He is like, though some Christians claim the opposite they have seen the Lord Jesus Christ. Indeed Jesus gives visions and dreams depicting Him in a form they may relate to, His actual glorified body is unknown to Christians. Apostle John who rested his head upon the breast of Jesus, the disciple Jesus affectionately loved, wrote Christians do NOT really know what Christ looks like in Heaven (1John 3:2) until we also get our immortal bodies which will be similar to Christ’s immortal Body in the First Resurrection of the righteous. Consider Jesus who is the Light of the New Heaven and New Earth and is radiating all the power from New Jerusalem. Mere mortals cannot "see God" as "God dwells in unapproachable Light."
1Timothy 6:16 "He alone is immortal and dwells in unapproachable light. No one has ever seen Him, nor can anyone see Him. To Him be honor and eternal dominion! Amen."
1John 3:1-3 “Behold what manner of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God. And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know Him. Beloved, we are now children of God, and what we will be has not yet been revealed. We know that WHEN CHRIST APPEARS, WE WILL BE LIKE HIM, for we will see Him as He is. And everyone who has this hope in Him purifies himself, just as He is pure.”
All the power and eternal light of the New Heaven and New Earth is pouring forth from Jesus in the New Jerusalem. This is why our future immortal bodies will be required in the next life to see Him. Our immortal bodies in New Jerusalem will be able to handle His presence of His infinite power and God’s Light so we will live in His Presence forever seeing Him as He is (Luke 9:1; 10:19).
The harlot American churches deny the power of God and Jesus. God’s Power is given to ALL New Testament Believers whom are diligent to pray, as promised in Acts 1:8. Not only to the twelve apostles, but on Pentecost Sunday ALL believers were speaking in unknown languages or tongues as Peter promised to ALL believers they also would receive POWER with the gift of the Holy Spirit in Acts 2:38 as Jesus promised all believers would receive POWER when they receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
Revelation 3:8 "I know your deeds. Behold, I have put before you an open door which no one can shut, because you have a little POWER, and have kept My WORD, and have Not denied My Name." Look to the Face of Jesus when gathering in groups of two or three or more and let His Power flow through you as "rivers of living water."
The harlot American Christians “having the appearance of godliness, but are denying its power. Avoid such people” 2Timothy 3:5. Pro-Forma Christians without the power of the Holy Spirit in Jesus Name are not true Christians in the presence of the Holy Spirit and Jesus, but are harlot Christians betraying the children, betraying the nation to its enemies in the U.N. World Government, and betraying God and King Jesus and are traitors to His Kingdom on Earth Today. Jesus said, “Either you gather [souls] with Me or scatter,” and “He who is not For Me is Against Me.”
1Cor 15:53 describes the metamorphic transformation of our bodies to prepare us for eternity and for His eternal Presence. “For our dying bodies must be transformed into bodies that will never die; our mortal bodies must be transformed into immortal bodies.”
Jesus PROMISED in John 14:18-20 “I will not abandon you as orphans—I will come to you. Soon the world will no longer see Me, BUT YOU WILL SEE ME. Since I live, you also will live. When I am raised to life again, you will know that I am in My Father, and you are in Me, and I am in you.” In verse 19 “BUT YOU WILL SEE ME” is being fulfilled right now, first after the ascension of Christ to be with His Father in His new glorified body where the world could not see Him. Now we see Him as in a “Mirror Dimly,” but in the New Heaven we will have perfect clarity and see Him as He actually is, after we also receive our immortal bodies as all obedient Christians will have in the next life (1John 3:2).
The remaining question is whether we will OBEY King Jesus and seek to Establish His Kingdom on Earth as the “Lord’s Prayer” has written in Matthew 6:10 “Your kingdom come. Your Will be done Holy Father, On earth as it is in Heaven.” Romans 3:31 has written it is God's command to "establish the Law" as opportunities are made available such as in a democracy/republic as in the USA.
John 14:15 “If you Love Me, Obey My Commandments. 16And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Advocate, who will never leave you. 17He is the Holy Spirit, who leads into All truth. The world cannot receive Him, because it isn’t looking for Him and doesn’t recognize Him. But you know Him, because He lives with you now and later will be in you. 18No, I will not abandon you as orphans—I will come to you. 19Soon the world will no longer see Me, but YOU WILL SEE ME. Since I live, you also will live. 20When I am raised to life again, you will know that I am in My Father, and you are in Me, and I am in you. 21Those who ACCEPT My Commandments and OBEY them are the ones who LOVE Me. And because they Love Me, My Father will Love them. And I will Love them and reveal Myself to each of them” (NLT).
John 14:21 "Those who ACCEPT My Commandments and OBEY them are the ones who LOVE Me." If Christians and Churches Love Jesus, then the Commandments of Jesus would be taught and obeyed in the public schools and the Gospel preached so to save as many children as possible.
John 14:23 "Jesus replied, “All who love Me will do what I say! My Father will love them, and We will come and make Our home with each of them ["You are the Temple of God" 1Cor 3:16-17]. 24Anyone who doesn’t love Me will not obey Me. And remember, My words are not My own. What I am telling you is from the Father who sent Me. 25I am telling you these things now while I am still with you. 26But when the Father sends the Advocate as My representative—that is, the Holy Spirit—He will teach you everything and will remind you of everything I have told you" (NLT).
John 14:24 "Anyone who doesn’t love Me will not obey Me." Dwell in God's Love and allow His LOVE to fill you so you will have the strength to Obey Him and His Son Jesus.
Matthew 6:33 “But seek first His Kingdom and His righteousness, and ALL these things will be added to you.”
In Hebrews 13:5-6 It is written as Jesus said, “I will never leave nor forsake you.” Seeing His Face as through “a glass darkly” or “mirror dimly” is always possible and it is His COMMAND. It is written in the Bible’s Love chapter in 1Cor 13:12.
Matthew 18:20 has written, Jesus Christ is there in the midst of believers spiritually touching and agreeing in the Holy Spirit. Therefore since Jesus presence is there in the midst of believers, so is also His Face somewhere in the spiritually warm presence in the midst of two or three believers.
2Corinthians 4:6 “For God, who said, 'Let there be light in the darkness,’ has MADE THIS LIGHT SHINE IN OUR HEARTS SO WE COULD KNOW THE GLORY OF GOD that IS SEEN in the FACE OF JESUS CHRIST.” The same spiritual light God spoke into the spiritual darkness is now shinning in Christians. All Christians are commanded to let their light shine as "a city on a hill.” Matthew 5:14 “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden.” Let God’s Light through Jesus Christ shine out of you to a lost world!
Matthew 18:19-21 “I tell you the truth, whatever you forbid on earth will have been [previously] forbidden in heaven, and whatever you are permitting on earth will have been [previously] permitted in heaven.” “I also tell you this: If two of you agree here on earth concerning anything you ask, My Father in Heaven will do it for you. For where two or three gather together, touching and agreeing in the Spirit, I AM THERE among them.” God and Jesus defines the spiritual and legal boundaries for Christians to optimally live in today, if we do not transgress the Law of Jesus. God and Jesus defines the spiritual and legal boundaries for Christians in the Bride, the New City of New Jerusalem in the next life in eternity.
In the New Jerusalem in Revelation 21:25-27 "Its gates will never be shut at the end of the day, because there will be no night there. 26And into the city [New Jerusalem, New Earth] will be brought the glory and honor of the nations. 27But nothing unclean will ever enter it, nor anyone who practices an abomination or a lie, but only those whose names are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life." With no night there, the New Earth and New Jerusalem will not be made of physical matter, nor will it have anything to do with this old physical Earth and the city Jerusalem in Israel on this Earth. As Apostle John wrote in 1John 3:2-3 "Beloved, we are now children of God, and what we will be has not yet been revealed. We know that when Christ appears, we will be like Him, for we will see Him as He is. And everyone who has this hope in Him purifies himself, just as He is pure.…" Jesus is preparing a place for each one enrolled in the Lamb's Book of Life. All the Light of the New Creation will and is pouring through Jesus Christ in the New Jerusalem.
Physical matter "flesh and blood will not inherit Only those who have salvation in Jesus Christ with their names in the Lamb's Book of Life will dwell in New Jerusalem. Those who call themselves "Christians" yet they do not have the spiritual power of the Holy Spirit and Jesus and they do not "see the Face of Jesus," may only be deceiving themselves and may not have eternal life in Jesus Christ, nor have their names written in eternity in the Lamb's Book of Life... "Do NOT be deceived!"
1Cor 15:49-51 "And just as we have borne the likeness of the earthly man, so also shall we bear the likeness of the heavenly man. 50Now I declare to you, brothers, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable [spiritual beings similar to angels]. 51Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed—." "Flesh and Blood, physical matter will not be part of our existence in the "New Heavens" and in "The New Jerusalem" on "The New Earth." Those who overcome and "See His Face" will become "Pillars" in the presence of Jesus forever!
While looking into the Face of Jesus and Him “standing in the midst” of believers, let your thoughts be brought into total spiritual obedience of the “mind of Christ” (2 Corinthians 10:6) and He will help lead you out of the “miry clay” of believers’ spiritual battles with sin, with the Help of The Holy Spirit.
1Corinthians 2:14-16 “But a natural man does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually appraised. But he who is spiritual appraises all things, yet he himself is appraised by no one. For WHO HAS KNOWN THE MIND OF THE LORD, THAT HE WILL INSTRUCT HIM? But we have the mind of Christ.”
In Romans 12:1-2 Christians are commanded to be living sacrifices transformed by the renewing of one’s mind and to know God’s Will. “Therefore I urge you, brothers, on account of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God, which is your spiritual service of worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to discern what is the good, pleasing, and perfect will of God.”
Philippians 2:5 “Let this Mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus.”
2Cor 10:4-6 “…The weapons of our warfare are not the weapons of the world. Instead, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We tear down arguments, and every presumption set up against the knowledge of God; and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ. And we will be ready to PUNISH every act of disobedience, as soon as your obedience is complete.” Jesus wants total obedience (2Corinthians 10:6). As spiritual maturity is accomplished, so "to whom more is given, more is required." Sometimes God and Jesus gives severe judgment for older Christians who knows better and will not repent of ongoing sins in their lives.
Failure to bring all thoughts into obedience to "the mind of Christ," Christ Jesus will result in PUNISHMENT and chastisement. God is faithful to perform His Promise for Christians to have the “Mind of Christ.” Focus your spiritual attention on seeing Jesus in the midst of believers and spiritually work to keep staying in His Presence and seeing “in His Face.” Jesus would have not made such an “impossible” law to be obeyed (Mt 5:21-37; Rom 2:16). Jesus commands to “bring all thoughts into the obedience of the Mind of Christ” today because He expects us to know “every thought will be judged by God. God would not punish people if obedience were not possible. God and Jesus gives supernatural power and gifts such as the “Mind of Christ” to help us bring the thoughts of ALL Christians into absolute holy compliance with the Mind of Christ. Therefore the Mind of Christ is an important supernatural gift that God desires for each Christian to have in order to obey His Will.
To have God’s power to live His life in Christ and obey the commands of God and Jesus, speaking in unknown languages is required to be edified enough and to be empowered by the Holy Spirit to live the Life of Christ in the world.
Some Christians may have “racing thoughts” (which are actually the voices of demons) for “all of their lives,” however, these devils must be resisted, overcoming them as Jesus did and “every thought comes into obedience to the Mind of Christ.” Whatever God COMMANDS, is something Christians are equipped with and empowered to do, if there is humble repentance in the midst of “two or three” believers in Jesus Christ.” God “watches over His Word to perform it.” It is no surprise people hear "voices." The surprise to the Christian in America, apparently, is Jesus demands true Christians to hear His Voice as He defines it, and seek His Face, and be willing to do and faithfully carry out whatever Jesus commands to each unique Christian as well as the body ministry in church where Jesus may speak if the Church is willing to hear Him speak.
True Christians will hear the Voice of Jesus as Jesus defines it. He will not give a "rock or a snake" but His rhema WORD as He deems it necessary to speak to the Church and to Christians. In the Resurrection, Christians will hear the voice of Jesus alive or in death and be translated into immortality and each given a new body similar to the one King Jesus has.
For Christians with Charisma gifts given from Jesus, stirring up their gifts is easier than ever with the gift and power of the Holy Spirit! The Holy Spirit’s anointing will teach you how to get “into The Face of God.” Everything God COMMANDS is exactly what Jesus expects us to do! “God is not a man that lies.” He does not make wild impossible demands, as God willingly empowers Christians to OBEY ALL of HIS COMMANDS. “The VIOLENT take it by force” (Matthew 11:12). God and Jesus expects believers to exercise force as necessary to compel people (e.g. Gospel in curriculum), sweating blood (Hebrews 12:4) as necessary to take possession of the Kingdom of Heaven and make it the Kingdom of God on Earth, because it is God’s Will on Earth must be done as Christ is reigning now over the nations (Matthew 6:10; 1Cor 15:25; Rev 1:5).
1John 2:27 “And as for you, the anointing which you received from Him abides in you, and you have no need for anyone to teach you; but as His anointing teaches you about ALL things, and is True and is not a lie, and just as it has Taught you, you abide in Him.” Abide in “Love” for God is Love and it makes possible spiritually “seeing His Face through a mirror dimly” (1Cor 13:12). Some Christians want to diminish the IMPORTANCE of the TEACHING by being led by the influence of the changing anointing of the Holy Spirit, however for them it is sin to continue to ignore the changes in the Holy Spirit's anointing, as His concern is to achieve His all-encompassing objective of making willing Christians into His beloved COMPANION as the BRIDE OF CHRIST, now in this life and in the life to come.
Christians grieve the Holy Spirit when His anointing changes for the worse, refusing to repent of their heresies. Many Christians refuse to take correction and fail to listen to the Holy Spirit’s nonverbal and spoken communication with all of their “heart, mind and soul” and do His Will. John 1:12; Romans 8:14 has written ONLY Christians that are “led by the Spirit” are the sons of God and have His authority to enter the Kingdom of Heaven and to ultimately inherit eternal life. "Seek First the Kingdom of God and all these things will be added unto you" Matthew 6:33.
1John 2:27 "As for you, the anointing which you received from Him abides in you, and you have no need for anyone to teach you; but as His ANOINTING teaches you about all things, and is true and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, you abide in Him."
As the Holy Spirit and His anointing has been designed to “lead and guide us into ALL Truth,” Jesus Himself is empirically is “The Truth” with the Holy Spirit’s teaching anointing, He is trying to lead us and teach Christians to be conformed into HIS “IMAGE AND LIKENESS” of Jesus Christ who is absolute TRUTH. Therefore the teaching by the changes in the anointing of the Holy Spirit is important and critical to the eternal status the spirit and soul of every Christian. “God is Spirit” and just as Christians feel affection and love from the human spirits and affection from the souls of pets, so the Holy Spirit of Jesus gives comfort and Love and guidance in the lives of Christians. Every subtle change in the Holy Spirit’s anointing is IMPORTANT and Christians must learn to be teachable by spiritually watching and feeling the changes of the Holy Spirit’s anointing, so to learn from Him the Truth and be spiritually conformed into His “IMAGE AND LIKENESS.”
The Ephesians “five-fold ministry” of apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers is not always critically necessary to be saved in one’s local church. However Ephesians 4:13 has written about “the unity of the Faith,” the perfection of the maturity of Body of Christ are all greatly helped by these “gifts of men” sent by the will of Jesus to help achieve the objective of the Bride of Christ and the perfection of “the unity of the Faith.” Until the time of perfection of the maturity of the saints, and the completion of the Bride of Christ, written in Ephesians 4:11-13 “And it was He who gave some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors and teachers, TO EQUIP the saints for WORKS OF MINISTRY, to build up the body of Christ, UNTIL WE ALL REACH UNITY IN THE FAITH and IN THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE SON OF GOD, AS WE MATURE TO THE FULL MEASURE OF THE STATURE OF CHRIST.” Those who deceive themselves and deceive others that we do not need the authentic “five fold ministry,” given by Christ, are highly deceived in their believing all Christians have already achieved the full measure of maturity of the stature of Christ making the Promise of Eph 4:11-13 moot and unnecessary.
Jesus Christ’s standards and morals are much higher than the harlot Christians who have betrayed God and Jesus in the U.S. Government, and betrayed the nation’s children in the public schools sacrificing their minds and souls by indoctrinating them in the official state religions to their ruin and their souls damnation.
Christians are wrong to oppose accepting the existence today of Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors and Teachers ordained by Jesus Christ Himself. They who oppose apostles are arrogantly saying we already have all matured to the full measure of the stature of Christ (Eph 4:11-13), which is evidently not true. Many remain in need today of perfectly maturing to the “full measure of the stature of Christ.”
The unity of the Body of Christ, is greatly helped by the command and action of Jesus who gave some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors and teachers, to spiritually equip the saints and to help to meet their needs to help Christians become “One” in Jesus Christ, sanctified in “The Truth” of His WORD, as Jesus said, “Thy Word is Truth.” "The Spirit of Truth" is necessary to sanctify the minds and souls of Christian.
Though “man lives by every WORD of God,” being “Born From Above,” “Born Again,” receiving God’s Seed making Christians Sons of God making God our Father spiritually, is the basic entry point for eternal salvation, if the holy “Seed of Christ” remains in Christians, given when Christians are “born from above,” they will have salvation and eternal life in Jesus Christ. The five-fold ministry is really helpful and is a great blessing to have someone to help to teach and maximize spiritual maturity so to obtain spiritual perfection as Christ Himself achieved spiritual perfection and also commands His disciples to be similarly perfect. Jesus said in Matthew 5:48 “Be perfect, therefore, as your Heavenly Father is perfect.” If the Father of Jesus is also your Father, He expects you to obey Him and be perfect as He is perfect as Jesus has command (Mt 5:48).
"Perfect:" Strong's Number G5046 matches the Greek Ï„Îλειος (teleios),
which occurs 19 times in 17 verses in the Greek concordance of the KJV
In exegesis, context of the word determines how the WORD "Perfect" is defined. Unfortunately for the deceived theologians, "Perfect" means PERFECT in the context of God the Creator as the intended object of the word usage of "perfect."
1Cor 15:26-28 "The last enemy to be destroyed is death. For “God has put everything under His feet.” Now when it says that everything has been put under Him, this clearly does not include the One who put everything under Him. And when ALL things have been subjected to Him, then the Son Himself will be made subject to Him who put all things under Him, so that God may be ALL in ALL." As the Father is PERFECT, expecting ALL to conform to His "Image and Likeness" is required and expected from His Church. "God is Holy" and diluting down the meaning of the Greek word teleios to mean merely "mature" in context is a contradiction and a lie.
"God does Not change." "Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever." God is unchanging and when He is "ALL IN ALL" after the Resurrection, only absolute Holiness and being Perfect in the New Jerusalem will be acceptable. Just as one-third of the angels fell to darkness with Lucifer, so also the opportunity to sin will continue to exist forever. It is truly fortunate that Christ Jesus, our "fail-safe," always on the job advocate, mediator between God and man will always be on the job to help us turn away from sinning to being holy and perfect as our Heavenly Father is Holy as He spoke and ordained before the foundation of the world (Genesis 1:26).
As important as apostles and the five-fold ministers are, the teaching anointing of the Holy Spirit is all that is really necessary for salvation (1 John 2:27). As Jesus said in John 7:17, “If anyone is willing to do the Will of My Father, it will be made evident and known to him.” Jesus is NOT going to be responsible for anyone perishing for willing ignorance and a lack of God’s WORD to them. God will make anyone willing to do His Will and be “born from above,” “Born-Again” and help them to connect with those who are willing, to bless them in Jesus Christ His Son, in His Church, and in His Bride.
1John 3:9 “No one who is born of God will continue to sin, because God's Seed remains in them; THEY CANNOT GO ON SINNING, because they have been born of God.” The harlot American Churches do not OBEY what has Jesus commanded. “Few are chosen” as few people make the lifetime choice of always OBEYING JESUS and obeying His COMMANDS. There is supernatural Holy Spirit power available to all Christians to OBEY this COMMAND to stop sinning against the CREATOR. All churches should teach Jesus will SAVE His people from sinning as God’s Seed remains in them. The DOCTRINE of God’s Seed, as Apostle John wrote, will drive out sin from the believers as believers cry out in prayer to Jesus to let His seed dwell in Christians instead of the seed of sin of the evil one. Sometimes hundreds of repetitions may be necessary for relief and deliverance. Ideally Christians should have Christians to help fight spiritual battles and have deliverance from sin (Mt 18:18-19). As it is written, “It is NOT GOOD for man to be alone.” Christians should always have Christian friends and Christian coworkers to help fight the spiritual battles.
Though Body of Christ ministry in Church is important for deliverance from sin, confessing and forsaking sin is a critical command so to inherit eternal life. Self-deliverance prayer therapy is critically needed for most Christians to practice in their daily lives.
God watches over His Word to PERFORM IT (Jeremiah 1:12). Daily quoting God’s PROMISES written in the Holy Scriptures sometimes repeatedly is necessary for deliverance (e.g. getting rid of demons as Jesus Himself continually repeated His commands at times rebuking demons to deliver people from them). For those who are alone without another Christian friend in their household, it sometimes takes more spiritual work to get rid of demons. As demons propagate lies, so in contrast to Jesus who always performs His WORD in TRUTH. The presence of Jesus and the presence of His Holy Seed in Christians will give no place to the devil in the lives of Christians. Read the Bible daily, especially the New Testament. Play Christian music and sing melodies of praise and worship in your heart daily.
Apostle Paul wrote in Eph 6:11-13 "The Armor of God
…11Put on the full armor of God, so that you can make your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this world's darkness, and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13Therefore take up the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you will be able to stand your ground, and having done everything, to stand.…"
Romans 13:14 "Rather, clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ, and do not think about how to gratify the desires of the flesh."
Clothe yourselves with Christ, the "Armor of God" and live by the fact spiritual warfare is a very necessary part of the lives of a true Christian.
Singing And Making Melody In Your Heart to Jesus Scriptures are important! King David singing to then King Saul sang what Scriptures, Psalms he had available to him according to Jewish Historian Josephus. In the new testament it is continued as a COMMAND to sing the Scriptures and SPIRITUAL SONGS. Ephesians 5:19 "Addressing one another in PSALMS and HYMNS and SPIRITUAL SONGS, singing and making melody to the Lord with your heart."

Praise Him with sounding cymbals; praise Him with loud clashing cymbals!"

1Corinthians 14:26 ESV "What then, brothers? When you come together, each one has a HYMN, a lesson, a revelation, a tongue, or an interpretation. Let all things be done for building up."
John 4:24 ESV "God is Spirit, and those who WORSHIP Him must WORSHIP in spirit and Truth.” Truth includes singing the Psalms and Scriptures.
John 4:23-24 ESV "But the hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and Truth, for the Father is seeking such people to WORSHIP Him. God is spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and Truth.”
BBN, a Baptist radio network, was astonished years ago on why the radio audience was asking for more worship music! BBN announced praise music was "good enough" and continued in his lukewarm positions in music and anti-pentecostal doctrines.
Jesus explicitly COMMANDED to worship "in spirit and Truth." Heresies, such as praise music instead of whole hearted worship genre music was "good enough." Half-hearted, lukewarm praise music with an occasional touch of worship genre is NOT good enough. There is very little time left (perhaps twenty years) to have Christian legal freedom of FCC licensed broadcasting of the Gospel.
Full worship "in spirit and Truth" requires being in the Spirit of Christ clothing us as the "armor of God," and whole heartedly spiritually following His Holy Spirit leading in "spirit and in Truth."
For example, BBN and most Baptists, decry "Tongues" and other "greater gifts" listed in 1Cor 12. They claim the "completed" or closed canon of the N.T. is the "Perfect" mentioned in 1Cor 12 when Jesus defined "The Perfect" as His Heavenly Father. It is at the Resurrection or Second Coming the PERFECT of Jesus and His Father in Him Coming that will conclude "knowledge will cease." But apparently the mindset of most of Christianity is the "end of knowledge" has already been attained (satire). Either Jesus is Truth and right about this or the cessationists who claim the greater Charisma gifts have ceased, such as healings etc.
"The Latter Rain" anointing, which made worship so beautifully anointed and refreshing ended in the twentieth century for the USA. Foreign nations, in some cases will have "Latter Rain" anointing, however, without repentance, there is almost no chance the USA will rise again in beauty and power of the Holy Spirit.
Jesus said, "in Truth!" Jesus said "I AM THE TRUTH." Following the Spirit of Truth in Christians is important to obtain the best anointing possible. As thousands of Christian sects exist, there is little chance for leadership to be recognized and utilized. It was only under Moses, that Israel was able to enter the PROMISED LAND. Doctrine: ALL CHRISTIANS knew sometime in their life that America should have been a Christian nation, but they hardened their hearts, turned to sprits of "unbelief" and sinned greatly so much that the USA's children are given over to "doctrines of demons" in the public schools and sacrificed to the gods of the state religions of Secular Humanism, Civil Government, Evolution of Life from the simple to the complex, and other religions forced on the children to entice them, ruin them, and take their souls into the kingdom of darkness of the coming tyranny of the U.N. The "END of AMERICA" is coming says the Holy Spirit! America will eventually become a radioactive DESOLATION FOREVER until the end of this spacetime, the universe, and the end of all matter of Earth. The Christian leaders will be held accountable for their steadfast opposition and rebellion to establishing the Kingdom of God and Jesus here on Earth in America by U.S. Law.
Holding these doctrines of demons to be truth and reasonable, so to oppose having a lawful Christian America, they are worthy of eternal death. King Jesus promises the death sentence for all those in this life that oppose His reign over America and Saving the Children of the nation whenever possible (Luke 19:27). Jesus says, "Let the Children Come to Me." The Christians who have opposed having some Christian Law and went along with the public schools in driving out Jesus and prohibited the children from coming to Jesus, and let the children be taught heresies, will have a tragic future. "Teachers shall incur the GREATER JUDGMENT." Jesus said it would have been better if they had taken their own life in suicide, instead of destroying the souls and ruining the minds of most of the nation's children.
Therefore esteeming the Spirit of Truth and His Doctrines to be true and faithful will help the general anointing of true Church Worship by the Body music ministry of Christ (1Cor 14).

For there is one God, and there is ONE MEDIATOR between God and men, the man Christ Jesus."

For “Whoever desires to love life and see good days, let him keep his tongue from evil and his lips from speaking deceit; let him turn away from evil and do good; let him seek peace and pursue it. For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and his ears are open to their prayer. But the FACE of the Lord is against those who do evil.”
1Peter 2:1-25 ESV "So put away all malice and all deceit and hypocrisy and envy and all slander. Like newborn infants, long for the pure spiritual milk, that by it you may grow up into salvation— if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is good. As you come to Him, a living stone rejected by men but in the sight of God chosen and precious, you yourselves like living stones are being built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ."

Revelation 2:26 “He who OVERCOMES, and he who keeps My deeds until the end, TO HIM I WILL GIVE AUTHORITY OVER THE NATIONS!” OVERCOMING the evil one is COMMANDED for all Christians in order to RULE and REIGN with Jesus today.
Christians usually have a number of contradiction in their beliefs. Such as it is O.K. for Jesus and the saints reigning in a future "millennium," but He is not reigning today! Failure to believe King Jesus is reigning today is a spiritual "poison pill" to the life of the church.
1Cor 15:28 "When all things are subjected to Him, then the Son Himself also will be subjected to the One who subjected all things to Him, so that God may be all in all." Now is the time for all things to be made subjected to God through Jesus. Now is the time to rule and reign with Christ Jesus for those who overcome the evil one. Whether as public officials elected to office or wherever God has placed each Christian. In eternity the Father of Jesus and the Church, will be "All in All" (1Co 15:28).
Romans 12:21 "Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good."
1John 2:13-14 “I am writing to you, fathers, because you know Him who is from the beginning. I am writing to you, young men, because you have OVERCOME the evil one. I have written to you, children, because you know the Father. I have written to you, fathers, because you know Him who is from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, because you are strong, and THE WORD OF GOD ABIDES IN YOU, and YOU HAVE OVERCOME THE EVIL ONE.”
Yes, of course Jesus wants to optimize each life for eternal salvation, so to help make each willing disciple “perfect” as His Heavenly Father is perfect (Matthew 5:48) and move disciples together in church to worship Him and minister in the Body of Christ teaching each member it is their spiritual duty to WORK to supply the rest of the Body of Christ, as the grace, charisma spiritual gift of the Holy Spirit’s anointing teaches every Christian who is teachable and willing to learn from Jesus and the “Teaching Anointing of the Holy Spirit.” Christians are commanded to LISTEN AND OBEY THE WORDS OF JESUS and keep their spiritual eyes on Jesus (1Cor 13:12). Just as Moses lifted up the serpent (representing Christ who took our sins away in Christ 1Peter 2:24) on a pole in the wilderness, all were healed and saved from their sin as a result. Jesus became a curse for us when He was hanged on the tree (Gal 3:13).
1Peter 2:24 “‘He Himself bore our sins’ in His body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; ‘by His wounds you have been healed.’”
John 14:26 “But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My Name, He will Teach you ALL things, and bring to your remembrance all that I said to you.”
In practical terms, when Christians are stirring up their spiritual gifts in worship and prayer, when the Holy Spirit’s anointing increases to an adequate level, then a “warm spiritual area” in the room appears in the midst of “two or three” gathered in His Name of Jesus who is also present as He promised. As Jesus promised He would be with us and be in willing Christians. Jesus Christ is in us and ALREADY HERE reigning over the kings and nations “on earth” (Rev 1:5). Christians do not need to wait for the “Last Day” resurrection of the living and the dead to OVERCOME the evil one. Overcoming and destroying the works of the devil is what Jesus commands. As John writes Christians are commanded to OVERCOME the demons as Jesus did and by doing so will reign with Him in this life on this Earth and not just in eternity.
1John 3:7-9 "…Little children, let no one deceive you: The one who practices righteousness is righteous, just as Christ is righteous. The one who practices sin is of the devil, because the devil has been sinning from the very start. This is why the Son of God was revealed, to destroy the works of the devil. Anyone born of God REFUSES TO PRACTICE SIN, because God’s seed abides in him; he cannot go on sinning, because he has been born of God.…"
When witnessing to lost souls, believers usually need to be in pairs of “two or three,” for in the midst is Jesus presence! Take His presence, the spiritual warmth of His presence with you everywhere you go 24/7, so that God will give you more of His grace in Christ to do whatever He says is possible.
As Apostle Paul writes, “we battle supernatural powers” and either the demons win or Jesus wins, it is your choice to work with Him, stirring up your spiritual gifts so to take His presence with you and you will have more of His help in the daily spiritual warfare!
Churches need to strongly exhort, urge, compel Christians, especially young Christians to pray at the altar in the front of most churches as they are led by the Spirit and NOT hide from the Holy Spirit at the back of the church. The Holy Spirit's anointing is usually better near the pulpit podium area, more intense closer to the front of the church where the ministers are performing and preaching in the Name of Jesus.
Heb 4:15-16 “For we have not a High Priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.”
Feelings of emptiness inside one's soul is spiritual oppression and by looking for the Face of Jesus (1Cor 13:12), He will help take those feelings away, that are not of Him, and He will fill you with the Holy Spirit.
It is also important to pray on one’s knees sometimes so to humble oneself in the presence of God Almighty and His Son Jesus to be more effective in praying and moving one’s spirit in harmony with the symphony conductor of the Holy Spirit. The Scripture also has written other physical positions such as standing, dancing, and other positions and behaviors such as raising one’s hands as Moses consistent in prayer and in worship and in overcoming the evil one.
King David and other saints also prostrated themselves in prayer and worshiped Jehovah-Salvation, YHWH-Salvation, Jesus as they were led by the Holy Spirit inside their heart and in their midst.
It is also especially helpful if the saints gather in front of the church where there is spiritual “soaking” worship music being played. Music moving in harmony in the Holy Spirit, such as Prophetess Ruth Fazal and others perform and compose as King David and professional musicians in the rich worship of God’s Love and His Presence. Praying in “ONE ACCORD,” near the worship leader, who is sometimes playing a beautiful, sometimes “string” instrument such as a violin, electronic keyboard and guitar leading in moving in harmonious one accord in one’s heart and spirit with Jesus inside of you. The brass and wind instruments are also appreciated when beautifully played in worship.
Music should be Holy Spirit anointed enough to drive away demons as the music by King David who did his best playing music for King Saul so to drive away the demon that eventually mad (1Samuel 19:9).
Modern example of driving out Jesus and not seeking His Face is NAZI Germany who went completely mad under Adolf Hitler. So is America's fate if the nation continues to love its idols and demons instead of seeking the Face of Jesus.
The Scriptures have written it is common for demons to afflict Christians. Apostle Paul is an example 2Cor 12:7 "Because of these surpassingly great revelations. Therefore, in order to keep me from becoming conceited, I was given a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me." Many Christian have been deceived and believed lies and as a result have given places to demons to work to "kill, steal and destroy" them. "Discernment of spirits" is one of the "gifts of the Holy Spirit. This is why Apostle Smith Wigglesworth physically hit people as he was "seeing" the devil and he was working to drive them out of their "places" that Christians had inadvertently given to them.
Infants safely carried in their mother's womb, when they are exposed to bad spirits such as occult or feel the demonic barrage of most television programs, their mothers inadvertently afflict the children by watching immoral programs or actually goes to an occult meeting. Christians often partake of "the table of demons" and sin. The babies in the wombs sometimes succumb to the presence of evil spirits or sins of their parents, generational curses, until they find deliverance from sin as Jesus gives each one His grace and blessings.
Jesus commanded Christians to "worship in Spirit and in the Truth." John 8:36 "So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed." Notice Apostle Paul had a demon, "a thorn in the flesh" that Jesus said was necessary to keep Paul humble. Generally most Christians will be "free indeed" as Jesus delivers them from demonic oppression.
“Because the God who said, Out of darkness light shall shine, is the One who shined in our hearts to illuminate the knowledge of the glory of God in the FACE of Jesus Christ. But we have this treasure in earthen vessels that the excellency of His power may be of God and not out of us” (2Corinthians 4:6-7).
Jesus manifests Himself in the presence of gathering Christians as a “warm spiritual area” in their midst, which may or may not include an “angel of His presence.” Matthew 18:20 “For where two or three have gathered together in My Name, there I AM in their midst.” In the warm comforting presence of The Glory of the LORD Jesus, is His Face. “God Dwells in the Praises of His People” (Psalm 22:3), so praise Jesus in public and in private and Jesus will meet you in prayer and help you to see His Face. God always keeps His Promises, Performs and Empowers His Word as we agree with Him.
Take the presence of Jesus Christ with you always, by the COMMAND of "singing melodies praising Him in your heart" (Eph 5:19). "So then do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is. And do not get drunk with wine, for that is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit, speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody with your heart unto the Lord; always giving thanks [to Him] for all things."
"Through many tribulations we must enter the kingdom of God” (Acts 14:22). It is not always easy to keep our spiritual eyes on the Face of Jesus (1Cor 13:12) but it is truly a matter of life and death and worthy of all of our efforts as we “WORK out or own salvation in reverent fear and trembling” of Almighty God and Jesus. Learning how to pay attention to Jesus by being “in His Face,” and listen carefully to Him with spiritual “ears to hear what the Holy Spirit is saying.”
Jesus was severely stressed at various times and “sweat blood” praying to do His Father’s Will on Earth and so we must make the same effort he did “sweating blood” to believe Jesus. Jesus "sweat blood" to see the Face of His Father when necessary and so should Christians make whatever effort is necessary to see the Face of Jesus as it is commanded by God's Love if we really do love Him.
Jesus said, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God.” The journey to salvation starts with the first step of being “Born From Above,” “Born Again,” having the Holy Seed of Jesus Christ conceived in you and then as a baby recognizes the faces of his parents, Christians are to learn to look and pay attention to the Face of God through Jesus Christ. 1 John 3:9 “No one who is born of God practices sin, because His Seed abides in him; and he cannot sin, because he is Born of God [spiritually].”
Because of growing spiritual maturity, God may or may not increase the amount of His speaking instructions with more explicit visions. Giving more vision and speaking more rhema words depends upon how faithful Christians are to listen and hear Him and do His Will with faithful actions as Christ also did (John 5:19). We are ordered to Obey Him by doing what Jesus says to do which becomes more evident when we see His Face.
John 14:10 “Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father is in Me? The WORDS that I say to you I do not speak on My own initiative, but the Father abiding in Me does His works.” “Young men will see visions and old men dream dreams” Acts 2:17.
In Acts 6:8-15 Evangelist Stephen saw a vision of Jesus and Stephen’s face reflected the glory of the angel of God’s presence while his trial’s legal defense last words were given by Jesus and The Holy Spirit in their entirety. As Jesus promised, it was not Stephen speaking at his trial and stoning as a martyr, it was our Heavenly Father who was speaking through Stephen, giving the words to speak through Stephen's will, spirit and voice. “For it is not you who will be speaking--it will be the Holy Spirit of your Father” Matthew 10:20.
As the hymn has written as we look upon His Face, the things of this earth will fade. The hymn ‘Turn your eyes upon Jesus’ Lyrics are, “And the things of earth will grow strangely dim in the light of His glory and grace.”
As Christians turn their spiritual eyes upon the presence of Jesus the weight of sin will gradually lift off the congregation as the anointing and worship reaches the presence and Face of Jesus who helps drive the demons away. “God dwells in the praises of His people.” Jesus desires to lift the burdens of the broken hearted and heal His children’s lives and empower His sons and daughters to do what He tells Christians to do. Jesus gives true freedom to His children. “Therefore, if the Son sets you free, you really will be free” John 8:36.
As the chorus has written, “Where the Presence of the Lord is Liberty.”
Strong’s 4858 sumphonia -- translated into English as symphony, ie music in English, a harmony of instruments and chorale of voices, is God’s great desire for Christians in worship so we will worship Him in the fullness of His Love and spiritually “See His Face” following His leading with His Holy Spirit in a great symphony of our human spirit in His eternal love and spiritual feasting at the gathering of the church and wherever “two or three are gathered” in the Name of Jesus. Just as a symphony orchestra moves in beauty and order led by the human conductor, Jesus the Great Conductor of the music of Heaven and Earth, wishes to lead worship in His Bride with beauty and in the perfect order of His Holiness today and forever. Obedience to being “led by the Spirit,” “seeing the Face of Jesus,” is the very essence and definition to Holiness. Holiness is not only the memorization of Scriptures, but the living relationship of following the leading of the Holy Spirit, moving in harmony and compliance with His leading with His Holy Spirit. Making a strong effort to worship the Holy Spirit, the Great Conductor Jesus as He leads, manifests the spiritual warm spot of His presence in the midst of His people (The Glory of the LORD Jesus). Jesus commands this symphonic harmony of moving with His Holy Spirit in ministry, theology, and in Holy matrimony, wherever “two or three are gathered” in the Name of Jesus. In the warm comforting presence of The Glory of the LORD Jesus, is in the presence of His Face. “God Dwells in the Praises of His People,” so praise Jesus in public or in private and Jesus will meet you in prayer and He will help you to see His Face.
The Holy Spirit’s Charisma manifesting in and with Christians who are filled with the Holy Spirit becomes a daily life style. Learning to move in the Holy Spirit, as the Holy Spirit leads with His power, love, grace and strength. Moving in the Holy Spirit of Worship is God’s Desire for His people. Worship is obedience to being led by the Holy Spirit, making music and singing melodies in our hearts daily.
IMPORTANT: Johann Sebastian Bach said, “I play the notes as they are written, but it is God who makes the music.” ... “The aim and final end of all music should be none other than the glory of God and the refreshment of the soul."
IMPORTANT: Christian Worship Music should always help Christians enter into God’s Glory and be edifying to Christians and always be spiritually refreshing one’s weary soul.
Just as the Spirit gives wisdom and skills in various fields of work and artistry, so God’s Holy Spirit should “quicken” the bodies and hands of musicians.
The Table of the Lord is more than just a regular spiritual communion with Jesus Christ in congregations “touching and agreeing” in the Holy Spirit for our Heavenly Father’s Will to be done on Earth, as it is being done in Heaven. In 1Cor 10:21 is written about the Wedding Feast of Jesus Christ the Bridegroom, which is already in progress. Christians are to recognize they are already present with The Table of the Lord and rejoicing with the Bride of Christ at the wedding feast worshipping Him “in Spirit and in Truth” (Matthew 25: 1-13). Jesus is the “Bread of Heaven” and is “The Life” Himself.
In “the parable of the Ten Virgins” the unbelieving Jews without the oil of the Holy Spirit in their “lamps” were lost in the darkness and shut out from the Marriage Feast of the Table of the Lord by God Almighty and Jesus the Messiah. However the Parable says the Jewish “virgins” would be welcome if they sold themselves, and gave themselves with all of their hearts to Jesus who desires to be their “Bridegroom.” When the Jews are “born from above” “born again” and filled with the symbolic oil of the Holy Spirit becoming Messianic Jews who have received their Messiah in their hearts are welcome to God and Jesus. Celebrating the Love Feast of Jesus and Table of the Lord will continue until the Resurrection and Christians enter the New Heaven and New Earth are given as the eternal habitation for the Holy Saints in their glorified eternal bodies. The Wedding Marriage of the Lamb of God will be consummated spiritually forever in His Love in the next life in eternity of the New Heaven and New Earth in the Bride of Christ, New Jerusalem forever.
Come, banquet in His Presence today and forever.
Because the ongoing Marriage Feast with the Bride Groom, The Table of the Lord (1Cor 10:21) is already in progress (Mt 25:10). The wedding feast is especially evident when worshipping Jesus in His presence, Christians will always find the Holy Spirit’s power, if they are willing, to enter into His glorious presence and have great joy in the Lord whenever the Body of Christ is gathered. It is after the Resurrection the wedding of God and Jesus is consummated. Until then Church worship is feasting at the "wedding" "Table of the Lord."
The parable of the "Ten Virgins" explains, "The Love Feast" at the "Table of the Lord." Jesus said He was and is The Door. In the parable The Door, Jesus, was shut to the spiritual virgins of the Jews who rejected or decided against obtaining enough "oil," symbolizing The Holy Spirit in the Bible. The Parable of the Ten Virgins is fulfilled prophecy two millennia ago and in is collaboration of Luke 19:27 where the King's Son condemned and had killed all those who would not let King Jesus reign over them. Jesus in 1Cor 15:25 was reigning then, now and forever.
"The Harvest of souls" that believe in God and Jesus are the number one priority for the Body of Christ. America had centuries to repent of their rebellion and opposing the reign of King Jesus and opposing His Kingdom on Earth as it is in Heaven.
In 1968 A.D. The Prophecy of the End of America in a future nuclear war, and continues to be the Judgment of Almighty God and King Jesus, the fulfillment of the prophecy may be only a few decades in the future, or sooner... Jesus who is The Door is now Shut and the Wrath of the Lamb has been carried out circa 70 A.D. and His Wrath will be turned upon all the Christians who opposed a Christian America by Law and opposed allowing King Jesus to reign in their lives and opposed teaching "The Way" to God and proclaiming the Gospel in the public schools, government and media before all is truly lost for the USA forever. The prophecy of the Holy Spirit is the United States of America will perish forever from the face of the Path and the survivors in Africa and South America will have to survive in the toxic aftermath of The War.
God and Jesus say, "I Love Mercy." Wouldn't you like to have love and mercy and work spiritually to see the Face of Jesus? God is capable of delaying WW3 or cancelling His Judgment, if the people of America will repent and seek His Face as Christians and work to save the children.
1Cor 10:20-22 “…20 “No, but the sacrifices of pagans are offered to demons, not to God. And I do not want you to be participants with demons. 21 You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons too; you cannot partake in the Table of the Lord and the table of demons too. 22 “Are we trying to provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than He?” Sanctification, separation from ungodly spirits, and repenting of sins becoming Holy are key commands for “Seeing the Face of Jesus.”
“Without Holiness, no man shall see the Lord.” Without learning to be sanctified in one’s heart and spirit, turning away from other “gods” and demons, one will eventually be lost in the confusion and spiritual darkness, and if the sin continues, God’s Judgment will be forever. How can Christians be faithful if they will not learn to discern between lustful carnal spirits and The Holy Spirit? The Creator demands holiness from each Christian in their lives and spirits. “Be Holy as I Am Holy.” Just as Holy Matrimony requires faithfulness and sanctification in refraining from lusting after their neighbor’s wife and in obedience of the Ten Commandments. Learning to obey the Command not to covet your neighbors' wife and their belongings takes a lifetime to learn. Similarly Spiritual sanctification of oneself requires guarding one’s heart and denying its desires from going after other gods-spirits to our harm, ruin and eventual shipwreck and destruction of our souls. Seeing “the Face of Jesus” is key in finding the “Way of Escape” from every temptation.
Note, just as the Bible has written there is “Holy Ground,” where angels of the Presence of Jesus minister, there are also spirits associated with land property and with objects sometimes, as people live in a spiritual world. Living either in the Kingdom of Christ on Earth, or as the living “dead” as Jesus said the unsaved were in His sight, living their lives in the spirits of the Kingdom of Darkness existing in the world. Learning to be sanctified and being holy is necessary for “Seeing the Face of Jesus.”
As Moses was told by God and His Angel to remove his sandals because it is HOLY GROUND. Jesus is always the same and there is usually “HOLY GROUND” with more anointing power and presence of Jesus in the FRONT of the church sanctuary and also to gather in prayer to maximize the effectiveness of listening to the Holy Spirit better, and get more answers to prayer as Christians are obedient to do what the voice of Jesus and the Holy Spirit tells them what to do.
Make the most of the HOLY GROUND in church for ministering as having better anointing yields more results from God and Jesus Christ.
“To whom more is given, more is required.” The more Jesus and the Holy Spirit speaks, the more is required of Christians to act and do the righteous works God has asked to be done.
Leviticus 26:7-9 “‘But you will chase your enemies and they will fall before you by the sword; five of you will chase a hundred, and a hundred of you will chase ten thousand, and your enemies will fall before you by the sword. ‘So I will turn toward you and make you fruitful and multiply you, and I will confirm My Covenant with you.’”
De 32:30 “How could one chase a thousand, And two put ten thousand to flight, Unless their [Christ] Rock had sold them, And the LORD had given them up?” Unless the Churches repent and seek the Face of Jesus diligently every day, the slightest persecution, temptations, spiritual attacks will reduce Church membership as the devils drag off sinful Christians who will not spiritually work to seek the presence and the face of Jesus in their lives so to save their souls. To be sold for their sins is a terrible destiny. As “The Wages of Sin is Death.”
Lev 26:8 “Five of you will chase a hundred, and a hundred of you will chase ten thousand, and your enemies will fall before you by the sword.” As Christian walk together in one accord, one soul, one mind seeing the Face of Jesus then God’s power and authority flows and authority increases. Jesus always sent His disciples out in pair when possible and the same is true today.
It is spiritual WORK to see the Face of Jesus. “Jesus answered and said to them, ‘This is the WORK of God, that you believe in Him whom He has sent.’” Acts 14:22b “Through many tribulations we must enter the kingdom of God.” “Tribulations” may be defined as spiritual “PRESSURE WAVES” as a jet passing through and breaking the sound barrier. It is real spiritual work to enter into His Presence, to stir up one’s spiritual gifts and “See His Face.”
2Cor 3:18 “And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect as in a MIRROR dimly the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into His image with ever increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.” This is why it is commanded in the Bible’s Love Chapter to always spiritually WORK to see His Face as through a “mirror dimly.”
James 1:23 “For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks at his natural face in a mirror.” Demons will tempt and use their power to land on and get Christians to MIRROR them instead of obeying God and MIRRORING Jesus Christ as 1Cor 13:12 and 2Cor 3:18 command for the normal spiritual behavior of true Christians.
It is sin to spiritually mirror demons with one’s face instead of spiritually looking at Jesus and mirror His Face, image and likeness.
The Holy Spirit has taught me to use the “Spirit of Truth” to find “The Way of Escape” from temptations, leading us through every spiritual wave to see His Face in and learn to “OVERCOME the evil one” as Jesus did. “God is no respecter of persons” and will teach all Christians who are willing to be taught by the Holy Spirit.
Be Holy Spirit Sensitive today because He is sensitive to those who seek Him and “a Rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.”
If Christians spiritually look at the presence and Face of Jesus it will become evident “The Way of Escape” from temptations of the “wicked one.” Christians must take “The Way of Escape” that is provided from the temptations in order to obtain the protection and deliverance of our Heavenly Father provided through Jesus who was given, as the angel Gabriel said in Matthew 1:21, “You shall call His Name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins.”
For example, while praying if the devil brings a hunger urge and vision for a hamburger, then I have to spiritually turn away to the Spirit of Truth to OVERCOME the temptation. Temptation after temptation, wave after spiritual wave is necessary to follow the leading of the Holy Spirit in prayers. Note the severity of Christ’s spiritual tribulations and pressure when Christ “sweat drops as blood” in His prayers.
John 3:18 “He who believes in Him is not judged; he who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the Name of the only begotten Son of God.”
John 9:35 “Jesus heard that they had put him out; and finding him, He said, “Do you believe in the Son of Man?”
John 20:31 “But these have been written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing you may have Life in His Name.”
John 16:13 “But when He, the Spirit of Truth, comes, He will guide you into ALL the Truth; for He will not speak on His own initiative, but whatever He hears, He will speak; and He will disclose to you what is to come.”
As Christians work spiritually to be filled with the Holy Spirit and work in the Holy Spirit to fan into spiritual flames stirring up their spiritual gifts. 2Timothy 1:6-7 while looking with their spiritual eyes, and importantly keeping their physical eyes on driving or whatever tasks they are doing throughout the day, looking only with spiritual eyes to the “warm spiritual spot” in the vicinity, (The Glory of the LORD Jesus), is looking at the “Face of Jesus,” as in a “mirror dimly.” Praying and believing for Christians around them in their midst to be “perfected” or “perfect” as “Our Heavenly Father is perfect (Mt 5:48), thinking and believing for the best about each other. Unless their unbelief and lack of repentance from sin is evident, thinking of each other as “perfect,” without sins and physical maladies, then Christians will spiritually feel weights of sins lifting from themselves and from others in their midst being “changed from glory to glory.” Jesus does “the heavy lifting” and helps lift individual spiritual burdens, healing His children and making us whole as His WORD “we are healed,” as written in Isaiah 53:5 and 1Peter 2:24.
John 4:21-26 “Jesus said to her, “Woman, believe Me, an hour is coming when neither in this mountain nor in Jerusalem, shall you worship the Father. You worship that which you do not know; we worship that which we know, for salvation is from the Jews. “But an hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth; for such people the Father seeks to be His worshipers. “God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.” The woman said to Him, “I know that Messiah is coming (He who is called Christ); when that One comes, He will declare all things to us.” Jesus said to her, “I who speak to you am He.” Jesus said true worship would be required of all nations after the Messiah came or God and Christ would bring drought and God’s Judgments.
Jesus said worship in the physical temple in the city of Jerusalem, Israel would be ended on this earth, but true worship would replace The Temple in Jerusalem, Israel (John 4:21-26). Many deceive themselves the ceremonial physical temple must be rebuilt, but it is the sin of unbelief, saying Jesus is a liar and not believing the truth when Jesus actually said true worship would occur without physical buildings in Jerusalem, but all over the earth globally, “in Spirit and in Truth.” On the world wide Mount Zion of Christ our Rock (Daniel 2:35). Therefore clothe yourselves with Christ and be filled with the Holy Spirit and worship Him with “all of your heart.” Worship God and Jesus in “Spirit and in Truth” and the truth is worship in spiritual Mount Zion is what God and Jesus have commanded of New Testament Christians.
Isaiah 33:20 “Look at Zion, city of our festivals! Your eyes will see Jerusalem, an undisturbed abode, an immovable tent; its stakes will never be pulled up, nor will any of its ropes be broken.”
Psalm 102:16 “For the LORD has built up Zion; He has appeared in His glory.” How does God appear in His glory in the New Testament? In Zion, the rock that became a mountain that fills all the earth today!
Psalm 102:21 “That men may tell of the NAME of the LORD in Zion, And His praise in Jerusalem.” The Name of the LORD is Jesus, “the Name above all names.” “Do all in the Name of Jesus” (Col 3:17). Believing in His Name in Mount Zion that covers all the Earth and singing His Praise is God’s Command. How can Christians worship God today in the New Testament if they are not already in Mount Zion singing His praise?
Psalm 87:5 “But of Zion it shall be said, “This one and that one were born in her”; And the Most High Himself will establish her.” The gender “her” is used and those that are “born again” or “born from above” in her (e.g. The Bride of Christ made up of O.T. and N.T believers in the Name of the Messiah Jesus).
Psalm 48:2 “Beautiful in elevation, the joy of the whole earth, Is Mount Zion in the far north, The city of the great King.” How can a physical mountain bring the Joy of God? Because as the “fruit of the Spirit” of Joy it is the Spiritual City of Jerusalem of the Great King Jesus.
Psalm 48:11 “Let Mount Zion be glad, Let the daughters of Judah rejoice, Because of Thy judgments.” How can a physical mountain be glad? Because it is not physical rock but the spiritual Mount Zion of the Messiah filling all the earth.
Psalm 110:2 “The LORD will stretch forth Thy strong scepter from Zion, saying, ‘Rule in the midst of Thine enemies.’” King Jesus rules TODAY with His ROD and SCEPTER smashing the nations of the earth for their sin and rebellion to letting Him rule and reign over the USA and govern the nations of the Earth for their good and not for their harm. It is ESSENTIAL that Christians stop being deceived about having a future fantasy heresy and truly believe Jesus is the Mount Zion that fills all the Earth and we are part of His world wide rule and reigning the nations, if we OVERCOME as Jesus did, reigning with King Jesus today from spiritual Mount Zion the CITY of Jerusalem of the Great King (Daniel 2:35).
Habakkuk 2:14 “For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD as the waters cover the sea.” “Christ is the Glory of God” revealed to man.
Jeremiah 1:10 “See, today I appoint you over nations and kingdoms to uproot and tear down, to destroy and overthrow, to build and to plant.” Today King Jesus invites Christians to rule and reign with Him (Rev 1:5; 2:27-28; 19:15; 20:6) from His spiritual Jerusalem on Mount Zion to reign over the nations of the Earth. Believing the Truth greatly enhances worship. Believing the TRUTH Jesus is ruling today. If only if the American Christians had not sinned in unbelief (similar to the generation Israel who sinned in unbelief by refusing to enter the Promised Land when God told them to), there would be a “Millennium” of blessings now ruling with Him TODAY! Worship is adversely affected when Christians refuse to believe King Jesus is already in absolute control with full authority reigning over all nations (Mt 28:18; Rev 11:17). Christians that receive the gift of the Holy Spirit may instantly perceive when the Holy Spirit is grieved by its “Teaching Anointing” (1John 2:27).
1John 2:27 “But you have received the Holy Spirit, and He lives within you, so you don't need anyone to teach you what is True. For the Spirit teaches you everything you need to know, and what he teaches is true--it is not a lie. So just as he has taught you, remain in fellowship with Christ.”
Therefore when Jesus said, “I Am the Truth.” Jesus is talking about “The Spirit of Truth” which Christians need to invite into their heart and it is the One Spirit of The Spirit of Truth that is necessary for TRUE WORSHIP.
Psalm 31:5 “Into Thy hand I commit my spirit; Thou hast ransomed me, O LORD, God of Truth.”
John 4:23 “But an hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers shall worship the Father in Spirit and Truth; for such people the Father seeks to be His worshipers.”
John 4:24 “God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in Spirit and Truth.”
John 14:17 that is the Spirit of Truth, whom [personhood] the world cannot receive, because it does not behold Him or know Him, but you know Him because He abides with you, and will be in you.
John 15:26 “When the Helper comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, that is the Spirit of Truth, who proceeds from the Father, He will bear witness of Me.”
John 16:13 “But when He, the Spirit of Truth, comes, He will guide you into all the Truth; for He will not speak on His own initiative, but whatever He hears, He will speak; and He will disclose to you what is to come.”
Romans 9:1 “I am telling the truth in Christ, I am not lying, my conscience bearing me witness in the Holy Spirit.”
Ephesians 1:13 “In Him, you also, after listening to the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation--having also believed, you were sealed in Him with the Holy Spirit of Promise.”
2 Thessalonians 2:13 “But we should always give thanks to God for you, brethren beloved by the Lord, because God has chosen you from the beginning for salvation through sanctification by the Spirit and faith in the Truth.”
1John 4:6 “We are from God; he who knows God listens to us; he who is not from God does not listen to us. By this we know the Spirit of Truth and the spirit of error.”
1John 5:7 “And it is the Spirit who bears witness, because the Spirit is the Truth.”
1John 2:27 “But you have received the Holy Spirit, and He lives within you, so you don't need anyone to teach you what is true. For The Spirit Teaches you everything you need to know, and what He Teaches is true--it is not a lie. So just as He has Taught you, remain in fellowship with Christ.”
Beware of Antichrists is taught in 1 John 2:19-26:
19 “They went out from us, but they were not really of us; for if they had been of us, they would have remained with us; but they went out, in order that it might be shown that they all are not of us.”
20 “But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you all know I have not written to you because you do not know the truth, but because you do know it, and because no lie is of the truth.”
[The early apostles did their best to teach the Truth in doctrine. But personally knowing the Spirit of Truth anointing is key to inheriting eternal life and discerning the Spirit of Truth in this life in doctrine and in discerning the spirits.]
22 “Who is the Liar but the one who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the Antichrist, the one who denies the Father and the Son.”
23 “Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father; the one who confesses the Son has the Father also.”
24 “As for you, let that abide in you which you heard from the beginning. If what you heard from the beginning abides in you, you also will abide in the Son and in the Father.”
25 “And this is the promise which He Himself made to us: eternal life.”
26 “These things I have written to you concerning those who are trying to deceive you.”
27 “And as for you, the anointing which you received from Him abides in you, and you have no need for anyone to teach you; but as His Anointing Teaches you about ALL things, and is True and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, you abide in Him.” It is critical for spiritual growth to pay attention to the Holy Spirit as He tries to lead you to be in the "image and likeness" of God and Jesus.
1John 2:27 "As for you, the anointing which you received from Him abides in you, and you have no need for anyone to teach you; but as His anointing teaches you about all things, and is TRUE and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, you abide in Him." Truth helps Christians to abide in Jesus Christ. Learning to repent of ideas when the Holy Spirit’s teaching anointing goes sour or be wary of some people is something Jesus requires of all Christians.
There is less good Holy Spirit anointing generally in the churches due to the sin of being "unteachable." Jesus said He is The TRUTH, but Christians often wanting idols of false doctrines, traditions and deceptions more than being willing to PAY THE PRICE, as the "Parable of the Pearl of Great Price" of everything we own and have.
For example, if grace were everything then everyone would go to heaven instead of most being exiled in “outer darkness.”
The churches usually teach differing doctrines, heresies, and most children are being turned away from believing in Jesus as a result.
Christians need to pay the price to learn to seek the Face of Jesus and Listen to His Voice at all costs daily.
Proverbs 23:23 “Buy truth, and do not sell it, Get wisdom and instruction and understanding.” Pay the price Jesus requires for The Truth in order to have good anointing of the Holy Spirit.
Spiritually seeing the Face of Jesus is key to obtaining more Faith, His Knowledge, His Wisdom and Insight. Ephesians 1:17-19 “Spiritual Wisdom … and asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in your knowledge of Him. I ask that the EYES of your heart may be enlightened, so that you may know the hope of His calling, the riches of His glorious inheritance in the saints, and the surpassing greatness of His power to us who believe. He displayed this power in the working of His mighty strength.”
Jesus further expands the warning to the churches to pay the price of spiritual “gold” or perish being removed the presence of Jesus forever. Rev 3:18 “I advise you to buy from Me GOLD refined by FIRE so that you may become rich, and white garments so that you may clothe yourself, and that the shame of your nakedness will not be revealed; and eye salve to anoint your eyes so that YOU MAY SEE.” Seeing Jesus spiritually is a matter of life and death and of great importance to Jesus that all Christians spiritually see Jesus (1Cor 13:12).
Jesus said, “Many are called and few are chosen.” Do not be discouraged because most Christians refuse to seek the Face of Jesus and ignore the changes in the anointing because of their lusts, desires, heresies and sins of unbelief. Jesus wants to make us like Him, similar to angles with perfect obedience to their Creator.
Whatever God desires, men and women often refuse to do. God wants us to listen to His Voice. Jesus said, “My sheep hear My Voice.”
Exodus 20:19 “And they [tribes of Israel] said to Moses, ‘You speak to us, and we will listen. But don't let God speak directly to us, or we will die!’” Also the people did not want to even see the Light of God radiating from the face of Moses. Today many Christians are also sinning, neither wanting to see the Light of God, nor listen to the Voice of Jesus and the Holy Spirit, rejecting the teaching anointing of Holy Spirit (1John2:27) by holding fast to heresies and legalism sins, instead of having an active, vibrant relationship with the Living God and Jesus Christ.
True Worship of God our Father through Jesus Christ involves repenting of our sins daily in our relationship with Him. Apostle John writes, “we do not sin,” but if we go on sinning we have an advocate with the Father. Jesus Christ the righteous mediator between God and man will mediate between you and our Father in Heaven. As the angel Gabriel said, “you shall call His Name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins.” Jesus gives Christians deliverance from sins and helps Christians to fulfill God’s Command to “Be Holy, for I Am Holy” today! God Commands Christians to stop sinning and “Be Holy” as it is to be done in this life on Earth in our mortal bodies today! Actively seeking and seeing the Face of Jesus helps deliver us from our daily sins.
Most people don’t really want to hear the Voice of Jesus (Exodus 20:19 Most people do not want to hear God’s Voice!) and also they make up false excuses why they do not want to hear and obey God and Jesus. Revelation 6:16b “Hide us from the Face of Him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb!”
Moses spoke “face to face” with God in a conversational manner. It was God’s Will then and is also commanded for today to speak to God and Jesus “face to face.” so we will be able to see His Face and listen to the Voice of Jesus today and forever. “God is no respecter of persons.” 1Cor 13:12 has written todays’ Christians are commanded to see the Face of Jesus as Moses spoke face to face with God.
John 10:25-30 25 "Jesus answered them, “I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in My Father’s name bear witness about me, 26 but you do not believe because you are not among my sheep. 27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. 28 I give them eternal life, and they will never perish, and no one will snatch them out of My hand. 29 My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father’s hand. 30 I and the Father are one.”
The consequences of failing to obey what Jesus wants done, are truly severe and may result in eternal damnation if people go on sinning. Actually listening to the Voice of Jesus is The Way to eternal salvation and joy of being in His Presence and seeing His Face today and forever.
Acts 3:17 “And now, brethren, I know that you acted in ignorance, just as your rulers did also. 18 “But the things which God announced beforehand by the mouth of all the prophets, that His Christ would suffer, He has thus fulfilled. 19 “Therefore repent and return, so that your sins may be wiped away, in order that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord; 20 and that He may send Jesus, the Christ appointed for you, 21 whom heaven must receive until the period of restoration of all things about which God spoke by the mouth of His holy prophets from ancient time. 22 “Moses said, ‘THE LORD GOD WILL RAISE UP FOR YOU A PROPHET LIKE ME FROM YOUR BRETHREN; TO HIM YOU SHALL GIVE HEED to EVERYTHING He says to you. 23 ‘And it will be that EVERY SOUL THAT DOES NOT HEED THAT PROPHET [Jesus] SHALL BE UTTERLY DESTROYED FROM AMONG THE PEOPLE.’ 24 “And likewise, all the prophets who have spoken, from Samuel and his successors onward, also announced these days. 25 “It is you who are the sons of the prophets and of the covenant which God made with your fathers, saying to Abraham, ‘AND IN YOUR SEED ALL THE FAMILIES OF THE EARTH SHALL BE BLESSED.’ 26 “For you first, God raised up His Servant and sent Him to bless you by turning every one of you from your wicked ways.”
Note the future prophet is in the N.T. and is now King Jesus, and God will and does destroy people, removing them from the Body of Christ and erasing their name from the Lamb's Book of Life. Listening to Jesus, taking heed and obeying what He says to do is a matter of eternal "life and death."
This is why America is being destroyed and being given over to its enemies, although having a reprieve with Pres. Donald Trump who was chosen by God to Make America Great Again MAGA as a Christian nation and to SAVE America. The Christian leaders have played "the fool" by opposing God and Christ's Kingdom here on Earth as it is in Heaven.
1John 3:5-7 “But you know that Christ appeared to take away sins, and in Him there is no sin. No one [today] who remains in Him keeps on sinning. No one who continues to sin has seen Him or known Him. Little children, let no one deceive you: The one who practices righteousness is righteous, just as Christ is righteous.”
Matthew 5:20 "For I say to you that unless your righteousness surpasses that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven." This hard requirement of Jesus is fulfilled when Christians, those who have been forgiven of their sins in Christ, look at the spiritual Face of Jesus, spiritually seeing the Face of our Father in Heaven as it is written in Amos 5:4 "Seek My Face and Live!" is fulfilled. Christians must seek the grace that comes through Christ Jesus to see His Face and live! The righteousness of Jesus is given/imputed to us as we "See His Face" and receive forgiveness...
Leviticus 19:2 “Speak to all the congregation of the people of Israel and say to them, You shall be holy, for I the LORD your God am Holy.” Genesis 1:26 has written conforming man into “Our image and likeness” requires Christians to be holy as God is Holy. To have a truly living vibrant relationship with God and Jesus requires Christians to be truly holy today!
Notice the Name of God, Jehovah, Yehovah, Yahweh, YHWH, is deleted and erased from the Holy Scriptures over 7,000 times in most Bible translations, because people today and throughout history, choose to continue in their sins and harden their hearts, and stubbornly REFUSE to “Call upon the Name of the LORD to be saved” (Acts 4:18-20). Refuse to Seek His Face (1Cor 13:12) and refuse to listen and obey His Voice.
Joel 2:32 “And everyone who calls upon the Name of the LORD will be delivered. ... And it shall be that whosoever shall call upon the Name of Jehovah shall be saved.”
Because of the sin of “unbelief” and other deceptions, most Bible translations continue to sin by deleting the Name of the Lord so they will NOT be saved. It is important to HONOR THE WORD of GOD and NOT ERASE God’s Name from History in a false sin of “fear.”
Today, Jesus (meaning YHWH is Salvation) is not erased in the Bible translations, however the SIN of deleting Jehovah and substituting the Name of the LORD over 7,000 times from the Holy Scriptures continues as the time of God’s terrible judgment draws near in these last days.
Notice in Colossians 1:16 Everything in Heaven or on Earth was created through Jesus Christ including angels. Grace came through Jesus Christ in the Old Testament for angels who continued in their rebellion and became devils. God is long-suffering, however the American Churches especially have neglected the Truth of “Seeking My Face,” and listening to the Voice of Jesus and as a result, have greatly harmed themselves and damned most children of the nation.
“Chasing after Love” is commanded, but so is going toward “The Spirit of Truth,” no matter how hard it is. For those who are given more intellectual gifts, more is required by Jesus. For those who are simple and not academically gifted in the complexities of Scriptural grammar and Apostolic Doctrines, chasing after “The Spirit of Truth, entering His presence and “Seeing His Face,” is the Command of God and Jesus.
Learning to appreciate the presence of the Holy Spirit and learning how to not “quench the Spirit” with false doctrines and heresies is of key importance to both Jesus and to His disciples.
Here is an example of “discerning the spirits” and being led by the Holy Spirit in a life and death choice as a nation of “kings and priests.”
Choosing Hillary Clinton who will appoint antichrist judges and take the nation down into ruin and the coming tyranny of the U.N. ruled by God's enemies. Someone, such as Donald Trump who now serves Jesus, or someone corrupting the children and destroying everything, they taking the USA down the broad path of destruction. Christians who voted for Clinton need to repent of their sin of unbelief and serve King Jesus in government, letting Jesus reign in the U.S. Government and public schools.
Pray for Donald J. Trump who will appoint Christian judges friendly to restoring historic freedoms of Christians so to save the children with the Gospel as Thomas Jefferson allowed, and work to keep America from falling before its enemies working hard to save the American people and Christians everywhere possible.
Deuteronomy 30:19 “I call heaven and earth to witness against you today, that I have set before you life and death, the blessing and the curse. So choose Life in order that you may live, you and your descendants.”
As many Christians choose the sin of unbelief and other sins instead of choosing THE TRUTH, the Holy Spirit’s anointing continues to fall in the churches, and most children will lose their souls as a result of ignoring the TEACHING ANOINTING of the Holy Spirit (John 14:26; 1John 2:27).
2Timothy 2:15 “Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the Word of Truth.”
Doctrine is important, however the over arching consideration is moving in “The Spirit of Truth.” The Spirit of Truth of Jesus must be the primary Spirit in the Worship of God. Make Jesus King of Kings and Lord of Lords and worship God in our heart. To abide in Truth is required to abide in Christ Jesus. Jesus commands Christians to “Worship in Spirit and in Truth.” The Holy Spirit and Jesus is the Spirit of Truth.
Jeremiah 32:39 “I will give them ONE HEART and ONE WAY, that they may fear Me always, for their own good and for the good of their children after them.” Godly fear results in Godly reverence and obedience seeking the Face of Jesus and listening to His Voice and OBEYING HIM with “All of our mind, soul, and strength” every day!
Ephesians 4:2-6 “With all humility and gentleness, with patience, showing forbearance to one another in love, being diligent to preserve the UNITY of the Spirit in the bond of PEACE. There is ONE BODY and ONE SPIRIT, just as also you were called in ONE HOPE of your calling; ONE LORD, ONE FAITH, ONE BAPTISM, ONE God and Father of all who is over all and through all and in ALL.”
Jeremiah 29:13 “You will seek Me and find Me, when you seek Me with All your heart.” Where the presence of the Lord is, includes the presence of His Face. Jesus is the “Head of the Church” and His Head has a Face that we are commanded to seek Him look upon His Face today and forever (1Cor 13:12).
There are wonderful promises of God that are granted when Christians seek God.
Jeremiah 29:12-14 “‘Then you will call upon Me and come and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. You will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with ALL your HEART. ‘I will be found by you,’ declares the LORD, ‘and I will RESTORE your FORTUNES and will gather you from all the nations and from all the places where I have driven you,’ declares the LORD, ‘and I will bring you back to the place from where I sent you into exile.’”
Exodus 33:14 “And He said, ‘My presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.’” Emanuel, “God with us,” where the presence of the Lord is, logically includes the presence of His Face (1 Cor 13:12).
Psalm 16:11 “You make known to me the path of life; in Your Presence there is fullness of joy; at Your Right Hand are pleasures forevermore.” Where the presence of the Lord is, includes the presence His Face (1 Cor 13:12).
A technique of prayer in seeking His Face and being changed “into His image and likeness” involves whatever “past sins” or visions one may have, including those of demons, involves asking Jesus what is the meaning of the vision, or why is the demon not “fleeing?” Jesus is faithful and will answer you if you are willing to repent and “see it His Way.” If we are unwilling to repent, Jesus sometimes refrains from more full explanations until we are willing to accept the Truth. Jesus never gives more of a burden than we can bear. Also you may remind Him in prayer He said, “For My yoke is easy to bear, and the burden I give you is light.” The Greek definition for “easy” has a wider range of meaning — good, helpful, kind and profitable. If the spiritual burden is oppressively heavy, Jesus will help you lift it as it is sometimes over the spiritual work limit Jesus has established for you to carry in His kindness. Keep in mind sometimes, “we are members of one another” and “when one member of the Body of Christ suffers, we all suffer.”
Many Christians want a "comfort zone" form of Christianity, however the Book of Job and the suffering of Christ Jesus and New Testament Christians, Hebrews 11, all have written the suffering of Christians is required in order to be in the "image and likeness" of Jesus Christ. "Disciples" means being "Martyrs" as written in the Greek.
1Cor 13:12 “Seeing His Face,” is written in the Bible’s Love Chapter and “God is Love” is The KEY, of the “Keys of the Kingdom,” to overcoming evil with good, obtaining God’s Blessings, having visions, as Jesus had visions seeing His Father’s Will for His Life. As Jesus was willing to faithfully do what He saw in the visions what His Father told Him to do (John 5:19), so also we are to faithfully do what Jesus shows us to do (John 5:19) in the “dreams and visions” He gives each Christian.
Seeing His Face of Jesus results in more healings, and spiritual PROSPERITY and having physical needs fulfilled. “Seeking His Face” empowers Christians to have “Life More Abundantly” and helps obtain more blessings and rewards of being in His presence as He desires.
2Chronicles 26:5 “And he continued to seek God in the days of Zechariah, who had understanding through the vision of God; and AS LONG AS HE SOUGHT THE LORD, GOD PROSPERED HIM.” As long as Christians diligently seek the FACE of Jesus everyday, God will prosper Christians and Messianic Jews.
Psalm 80:7 “Turn us again to Yourself, O God of Heaven's Armies. Make YOUR FACE shine down upon us. ONLY THEN will we be saved.” Only when we “see His Face” as also commanded to in 1Cor 13:12 in God’s “Love Chapter,” then we are saved!
How do you know you are saved? When you are seeing the Face of Jesus you are saved 1Cor 13:12. As long as you are seeing His Face you are saved as Jesus commands! Amos 5:4,14 “This is what the LORD says to Israel: "Seek Me and Live” Hallelujah!
In prayers Christians need to be speaking by faith to the warm spiritual area where the Holy Spirit anointing is, (The Glory of the LORD Jesus). “God dwells in the Praises of His People. When speaking to His presence, singing hymns, teaching and preaching, speak with your spirit to the spiritual presence of Jesus there in your midst and you will have more Holy Ghost Power (Acts 1:8).
Children of Light Children of Light in Eph 5:18 “Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to reckless indiscretion. Instead, be filled with the Spirit. 19Speak to one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs. Sing and MAKE MUSIC IN YOUR HEARTS, 20always giving thanks to God the Father for everything in The Name of our Lord Jesus Christ.…” One should notice the spiritual warmth of the glory cloud as one spiritually sees the Face of Jesus and as one is obedient so does the problems go away, weights of sins, lift off as one enters into His presence.
Entering into His Presence, Seeing the Face of Jesus helps one OVERCOME the evil one as Jesus did. Jesus will make Christians “pillars” to stand in His presence forever if Christians will be as Israel and “prevail with God.”
When under demonic assault and in spiritual warfare, in order not to become spiritual “fodder” by sinning, being captivated and falling before the demonic powers and principalities, it is IMPORTANT to ACT upon God’s nature to “dwell in the praises of His people.” “Making MELODY IN YOUR HEART” helps you draw closer to God and for God and Jesus to draw closer to you and helps create a spiritual opportunity for angels to act upon your prays to God the Father through Jesus Christ His Son.
Ephesians 5:19 “Speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, SINGING AND MAKING MELODY WITH YOUR HEART TO THE LORD.”
Note the Book of Psalms is quoted in the New Testament and Psalms and Hymns with good Holy Spirit anointing remains God’s Command for music ministers as a godly music genre option. One could say in general, if the Holy Spirit’s teaching anointing blesses and His Holy Spirit leads in the music, it is good for Jesus and good for you (John 1:12).
Note: It is important to watch carefully the “teaching anointing” of the Holy Spirit so one does not allow in mesmerizing powers and demons. It is similar to the sin of sorceries. As long as the Holy Spirit’s anointing is “Good,” then chorus repetitions are fine with God and Jesus. The important thing is to please the Lord Jesus Christ in all music, in all that is said, songs flowing with the beauty and leading of the Holy Spirit, and in body movements such as being “Commanded to raise hands” to worship God (1Timothy 2:8). Scripture commands we exalt His Name of Jesus and offer Him our whole-hearted praise.
Practice “speaking in tongues more than you all” as Apostle Paul did. Worship is the opposite of complaining. Practice worshipping God the Father through Jesus Christ all day every day as much as possible.
"Let us come before His presence with thanksgiving; Let us shout joyfully to Him with psalms" (Psalm 95:2). The scripture word “thanksgiving” (todah), according to Strong's No. 8426, is derived from the verb yadah (Strong's H3034). It means to hold out the hand, an extension of the hand, especially to revere or worship with extended hands. Thanksgiving includes to thank and praise God with one's hands extended or upraised, alluding to a “Wave Offering” and to the Lord Jesus’ harvest of souls that Christians are commanded to labor in.
Psalm 47:1 Commands us to clap our hands in praise and worship of God. "Oh, clap your hands, all you peoples! Shout to God with the voice of triumph!" Clap! Shout! Get excited!
Strong's No. 8628 defines clap (taqa') as; to clatter, clang, sound, blow, clap or strike.
Apostle Paul tells believers what is necessary to please God and survive everyday spiritual warfare. In 1Cor 14:5 “What am I to do?
I will-
(1) PRAY WITH MY SPIRIT, but I will -
(2) PRAY WITH MY MIND also; I will-
(3) SING PRAISE WITH MY SPIRIT,
but I will-
(4) SING WITH MY MIND also.”
(1) PRAY WITH MY SPIRIT
(2) PRAY WITH MY MIND
(3) SING PRAISE WITH MY SPIRIT
(4) SING WITH MY MIND
It is best to OBEY JESUS and always have two or three believers with you “touching and agreeing” around the clock everyday 24/7. However these four commands listed in 1Cor14:5, when followed will help individuals pray and fight spiritual warfare and live forever, however sometimes as Jesus suffered praying there is an obedience to His Voice that may cost one’s life.
As Proverbs has written, when one stumbles and falls alone, there is no one to help get him or her get back up. This is why Jesus ALWAYS sent His disciples out in pairs, 24/7 if possible for spiritual “touching and agree” for healings, miracles, prayer requests and warfare needs, so to help keep the presence and protection of Jesus in their walk in life, for accountability to keep each other on The Way, and to help each other get back up on their feet and help them and send them out on The Way when needed. Accountability to each other in the ministry is important, however maintaining the presence of Jesus “where two or three are gathered” is critical for following Him in His Harvest and ministry.
Jesus said, “My sheep hear My Voice.” When you are seeing His Face “through a mirror dimly,” as you make yourself willing in your heart and spirit, you will then listen and hear more clearly the Words of Jesus when He speaks them to you.
Learn to faithfully identify the Voice of Jesus so you will be blessed and not ruined by other voices. The Voice of Jesus calms, comforts, convicts, encourages, enlightens, leads, reassures and stills one’s soul.
Note: Just as human fathers raise their voice and sound angry, so also our Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ gets angry and though there is no volume increase, one may easily discern our Heavenly Father does not appreciate us sinning in the presence of the Holy Spirit. Note the Holy Spirit “DROVE” Jesus into the Wilderness to be tested (Mark 1:12). The Holy Spirit “pushes” spiritually and also devils sometimes push and work to overpower Christians to start sinning. One must discern the difference between spirits in order to be faithful to the Holy Spirit and refuse the deceptions of evil spirits. The translations vary from the Greek manuscripts from “led” to “drove” Jesus in Mark 1:12 “Immediately the Spirit impelled [drove] Christ to go out into the wilderness.” When Jesus drives you to do something, cooperate with Him. You should always willing to follow the leading of the Holy Spirit (John 1:12). When the devil drives you to do something, stand still, submit unto God and Jesus and resist the temptation to take the easy way out and sin.
2Corinthians 2:10-11 “If you forgive anyone, I also forgive him. And if I have forgiven anything, I have forgiven it in the presence of Christ for your sake, in order that Satan should not outwit us. For we are not unaware of his schemes.”
The voices of devils and seducing spirits obsessing one’s spirit, causing worries, condemns, discourages, confuses, pushes, frightens and rushes Christians to do something wrong or stupid.
Remember to “test the spirits” so you will not listen to others’ voices, as you will have spiritual revelation to better listen to Him when in His presence and seeing The Face of Jesus with your spiritual eyes, listen ONLY to Him and not listen to others. John 10:4-5 “When he puts forth all His own, He goes ahead of them, and the sheep follow Him because they know his voice. A stranger they simply will not follow, but will flee from him, because they do not know the voice of strangers.” True Christians know the Voice of Jesus, He will help you to listen and hear His voice. The Holy Spirit’s teaching anointing will help to recognize counterfeit voices of strangers, demons, which can sometimes sound very much like good spirits, but actually are deceiving spirits and devils.
1Cor 13:12 “we always see Face of Jesus” is the spiritual “safety net,” “gold standard,” or “fail safe” to help recognize the true Voice of Jesus and discern deceiving voices, which are sometimes very seductive woman’s voices. The “Spirit of Truth” and “Gift of the Holy Spirit” are very important, however the ultimate testing of spiritual voices is spiritually looking at the Face of Jesus and letting Him sort out the spiritual mess and deceptions of living in a fallen world with a usually rebellious Body of Christ unwilling to fight the good fight of faith to save the children’s souls from the government schools’ indoctrination in the state religions and lies which usually severely corrupt their minds and souls, and with peer pressure, give the children the final push into the Kingdom of Darkness from which they usually never return to find eternal life in Jesus Christ.
1 Cor 13:12 “For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.”
The Face of Jesus is seeing The Father as Jesus said and is of ultimate importance for all of eternity. You are giving respect when you look as His Face and are obeying His Command to “See His Face Always” today and throughout eternity.
Seeing the Face of Jesus (1 Cor 13:12) is obeying the command written in James 4:7 “Submit therefore to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.” Submit to God’s command to seek His presence and look at His Face through Jesus Christ, while you resist the devil and the devils will flee away from you.
It is a matter of respect and friendship to look at the Face of Jesus, your loving Friend who is “closer than a brother.” HE IS your King of Kings, your Master, your Lord of Lords and it is your duty as His creature and possession to OBEY Him and see His Face today and forever (1 Cor 13:12).
The virtuous will SEE HIS FACE. The upright will behold His Face.
Psalm 11:7 “For THE RIGHTEOUS LORD loves justice. The virtuous will SEE HIS FACE.”
In John 13:34 Jesus gave His disciples a "New Commandment to Love One Another" and daily working spiritually to see the Face of Jesus for obtaining God’s Love is a foundational doctrine. 1 Cor 13:12 is in the middle of God’s Love chapter in the Bible. Jesus in the midst of believers in Mt 18:20 the command is to seek His presence and to see His Face in their lives. Hosea 5:15 is in the context of God's unchanging Word and Jesus is Always the same! He has not changed from the beginning (John 1:2; 17:5, Colossians 1:16-17) of the Creation of Heaven and Earth with His Father in the O.T. or in the N.T. Since everything in the Old Testament was created through Jesus Christ, GRACE was also “realized” through Him, as “God Loves Mercy.” The penalty is the same for unrepentant sin in both the O.T and N.T. is the permanent eternal exile in “outer darkness and the “Lake of Fire.” God gives hyper Grace to Christians who repent of sin so we may be made into the “image and likeness of God.” God does not give grace to those who turn from His Face and runs away from His Presence. Grace to repent of sin may be given “Seventy times seven” daily as Jesus said, for the purpose of HOLINESS and because of God’s Love and eternal purpose that those who believe in Jesus Christ may dwell in His Presence forever and see His Face in His Son.
It is a matter of eternal importance to desire to stop sinning so we may see His Face. “Behold, the LORD'S Hand is not so short That it cannot save; Nor is His Ear so dull That it cannot hear. But your iniquities have made a separation between you and your God, And your sins have hidden His FACE from you so that He does not hear” (Isaiah 59:1-2). God makes it clear that His people will NOT SEE His Face if they do not repent of continually sinning.
1 John 3:9 “Those who have been born into God's family do not make a practice of sinning, because God's life is in them. So they can't keep on sinning, because they are children of God.”
Christians sometimes sin by talking to "angels" which are sometimes deceiving spirits disguising themselves, devils (1 Kings 22:19-23; 1 Timothy 4:1), trying to lead spiritually naive people into the sins of ancestor “worship” and pantheism, mimicking their deceased loved ones and animals, such as personal pets, similar Balaam's donkey, which are God's secondary way of pleading and talking to His wayward sinning people. Balaam was told to do something and he disagreed, because he lusted for power and wealth. Balaam disobeyed with what God told him to do originally and instead went on to turn against God and eventually died fighting against God and against Israel. With Balaam's incident with God's angel, God basically told Balaam to go on with Plan “B” and continue to sin as his heart led Him, but asked Him to continue to speak God's Word. If Balaam had a heart to repent of his greed, as Balaam first suggested after seeing the angel with a sword drawn ready to kill Balaam, he would have IMMEDIATELY returned home as God first COMMANDED Balaam. Balaam wanted that money, respect and prestige more than he wanted to OBEY God’s Plan “A.” God never changes, “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever” Hebrews 13:8. Take it to heart to do God’s Voice the FIRST TIME and not corrupt and destroy yourself with God’s Plan “B.”
Acts 2:35 “It is YOU WHO ARE THE SONS OF THE PROPHETS and of the covenant which God made with your fathers, saying to Abraham, ‘AND IN YOUR SEED ALL THE FAMILIES OF THE EARTH SHALL BE BLESSED.’” Christians are called to be led by the Holy Spirit and The Spirit of Truth and NOT be deceived so to destroy the nation’s children by the state religions and DO NOTHING to save them by changing U.S. Laws.
2 Chronicles 32:31b “God left him alone only to test him, that He might know all that was in his heart.” When God leaves His people, withdraws Himself, testing His people at times seeing whether they will return to Him, when His people go on sinning after the Holy Spirit convicts them of the sin of going after other gods and false doctrine to their harm and desire to be deceived wanting money and sinful pleasures. It remains God’s COMMAND today for ALL Christians to “Draw near to God and He will draw near to you” James 4:8a. Yes Jesus promised and said, “I will never leave nor forsake you,” however His promise is dependent on whether we will repent of our sins and seek His Face (2 Chron 7:14). Sins of omission include being “Perfect” as Jesus commanded of His disciples. “Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect” (Mt 5:48). The sin of being far less than “perfect” gives God the legal right to withdraw Himself, watching to see if we will repent of not chasing after Him, as He leaves and He wants to see if Christians do a better job of being Holy as your Heavenly Father is Holy. His absence caused by His withdrawal in Christians lives is adequate motivation and reason to chase after Love and see the Face of God and Jesus in order to establish our relationship with our Heavenly Father through Jesus. “Chase after Love” for “God is Love.”
Repent of not being perfect as Jesus commanded of His disciples, seeking His Face as 1Cor 13:12 commands of N.T. Christians in God's Love Chapter. When seeing that Shekinah Glory Cloud of His Presence, the spiritual warm spot when worshipping with two or three Christians His Face is when God and Jesus answer your prayers.
2 Chronicles 31:21 “And every work which he [King Hezekiah] began in the service of the house of God in Law and in Commandment, SEEKING HIS GOD, HE DID WITH ALL HIS HEART AND PROSPERED.” Today in the New Testament the commandment seeking the Face of Jesus with ALL of our Heart, soul and strength remains God’s Will, His LAW and COMMAND given by King Jesus for us in order to live and prosper.
Many Christians love lies and twisting the Scriptures, such as oversimplification of the Gospel stating, “Salvation is [only]by Grace.” However “without Holiness, no man shall see God.” “Faith without works is dead” and being dead in trespasses and sins eventually results in eternal damnation by God’s Judgment. “Salvation is by Grace” is Truth, however if you truly Love God and Jesus you will OBEY Him when you also seek His Face, Love His Holy Spirit and hear His Voice!
True “Love covers a multitude of sins” requires Christians to repent and leave their sins behind and turning to the Face of Jesus and practicing righteousness, holiness and working to believe Him and in diligently seeking His Face.
In the hypothetical hyperbolic unconditional case of Jesus promising, “I will never leave nor forsake you,” Christians would contradict God’s Word where God warns He will hide His Face and not listen to their prayers if they go on sinning, and it would contradict the unforgivable sin of eating at the Table of the Lord and then sinning by turning entirely to the table of demons, and would negate the need of eternal exile and punishment in the Lake of Fire, of Judas Iscariot banned and exiled forever from the presence of Jesus.
Hebrews 12:14 “Work at living in peace with everyone, and work at living a holy life, for those who are not holy will not see the Lord.” “Holiness” is required to see the Face of Jesus today and see His Face in eternity (Hebrews 12:14). Therefore to choose to go on sinning continually (1 John 3:9) results in NOT seeing the Face of Jesus and will result in separation from God eventual and brings His severe judgment of His Wrath and the Wrath of the Lamb, God’s Son Jesus Christ. The types of God’s Judgment and Curses for Disobedience are listed in Deuteronomy 28:15-68. Christians like to deceive themselves “We are not children of wrath.” However as “Jesus is always the same,” in the same manner as Israel deceived themselves and was punished, the sinful American Churches have also deceived themselves and will eventually incur God’s Wrath!
Curses for sinful, willful disobedience and failing Seeking the Face of God and Jesus.
Deuteronomy 28:15-68

46 “These horrors will serve as a sign and warning among you and your descendants forever.”
47 “If you do not serve the Lord your God with joy and enthusiasm for the abundant benefits you have received, 48 you will serve your enemies whom the Lord will send against you. You will be left hungry, thirsty, naked, and lacking in everything. The Lord will put an iron yoke on your neck, oppressing you harshly until he has destroyed you.”
49 “The Lord will bring a distant nation against you from the end of the earth, and it will swoop down on you like a vulture. It is a nation whose language you do not understand, 50 a fierce and heartless nation that shows no respect for the old and no pity for the young.”
51 “Its armies will devour your livestock and crops, and you will be destroyed. They will leave you no grain, new wine, olive oil, calves, or lambs, and you will starve to death.”
52 “They will attack your cities until all the fortified walls in your land—the walls you trusted to protect you—are knocked down. They will attack all the towns in the land the Lord your God has given you.”
53 “The siege and terrible distress of the enemy’s attack will be so severe that you will eat the flesh of your own sons and daughters, whom the Lord your God has given you.”
54 “The most tenderhearted man among you will have no compassion for his own brother, his beloved wife, and his surviving children. 55 He will refuse to share with them the flesh he is devouring—the flesh of one of his own children—because he has nothing else to eat during the siege and terrible distress that your enemy will inflict on all your towns.”
56 “The most tender and delicate woman among you—so delicate she would not so much as touch the ground with her foot—will be selfish toward the husband she loves and toward her own son or daughter. 57 She will hide from them the afterbirth and the new baby she has borne, so that she herself can secretly eat them. She will have nothing else to eat during the siege and terrible distress that your enemy will inflict on all your towns.”
58 “If you refuse to obey all the words of instruction that are written in this book, and if you do not fear the glorious and awesome Name of the Lord your God, 59 then the Lord will overwhelm you and your children with indescribable plagues.

Deuteronomy 28:63 “Just as THE LORD HAS FOUND GREAT PLEASURE IN CAUSING YOU TO PROSPER, AND MULTIPLY, the Lord will find Pleasure in Destroying you. You will be torn from the land you are about to enter and occupy. 64 For the Lord will scatter you among all the nations from one end of the earth to the other. There you will worship foreign gods that neither you nor your ancestors have known, gods made of wood and stone! 65 There among those nations you will find no peace or place to rest. And the Lord will cause your heart to tremble, your eyesight to fail, and your soul to despair.
66 Your life will constantly hang in the balance. You will live night and day in fear, unsure if you will survive. 67 In the morning you will say, ‘If only it were night!’ And in the evening you will say, ‘If only it were morning!’ For you will be terrified by the awful horrors you see around you.
68 Then the Lord will send you back to Egypt in ships, to a destination I promised you would never see again. There you will offer to sell yourselves to your enemies as slaves, but no one will buy you.”
Deuteronomy 28 has the nation “being the tail of enemy nations” Prophecies of punishment, such as serving God’s enemies in the U.N. World Government, will be soon fulfilled and women eating their afterbirths in secret will be literally fulfilled in the aftermath of WW3, as God and Jesus Curses are poured out upon America in a few decades in starvation following WW3, as has been already prophesied by prophets. The Holy Spirit Warns, the end of the nation is approaching soon. Therefore repent of sins and work to see the Face of Jesus so your prayers will be answered and learn to listen to His Voice and be saved!
“Jesus is always the same,” in both the Old Testament and New Testament! Centuries of chastisement, then destruction was and is His Will for the USA.
Consider what Prophet Jeremiah prophesied to Israel before the chastisement of their move to Babylon. Jeremiah 4:11-12 “The time is coming when the LORD will say to the people of Jerusalem, “My dear people, a burning wind is blowing in from the desert, and it’s not a gentle breeze useful for winnowing grain. It is a roaring blast sent by Me! Now I will pronounce your destruction!”
God and His Prophets have pronounced His coming destruction of the USA in WW3. Only a few survivors will flee to live in South America after WW3. A prophet, who lived two millennia ago, pronounced a “new dispensation” will exist after the year 2,025 A.D. Perhaps meaning the full power of the dark tyranny of the U.N. World Government will be unleashed. Years later survivors living in the radioactive environment of post WW3 will have a living horror to exist in until the end.
Jer 4:16-18 “Warn the surrounding nations [friends of the USA] and announce this to Jerusalem: The enemy is coming from a distant land, raising a battle cry against the towns of Judah. 17They surround Jerusalem like watchmen around a field, for My people have rebelled against Me,” says the LORD. 18“Your own actions have brought this upon you. This punishment is bitter, piercing you to the heart!” Because the sins and rebellion of the harlot Christians are so severe there cannot be a national revival, though individual “revivals” are granted by Jesus as there is heartfelt true repentance of sin. Especially repenting of the sin of failing to see the Face the Jesus and daily doing His Will. This is in part fulfilled, as Apostle Paul said, daily seeking the FACES of the saints who are mirroring dimly the Face of God (1Cor 13:12).
Jeremiah 10:21 “For the shepherds [pastors] have become STUPID And have not sought the LORD; Therefore they have not prospered, And all their flock is scattered.” Many American pastors and churches that have become STUPID need to repent of not always praying and seeking the Face of Jesus (commanded in 1Cor 13:12) opposing and neglecting establishing the Kingdom of God and Christ in the U.S. Government and in the Public Schools, or the American churches will continue to shrink and their flocks will be scattered and given to their enemies. Seeing the Face of Jesus daily is a matter of life and death for all Christians and for Civilization!
Jer 7:23b “Obey Me, and I will be your God, and you will be My people. Do everything as I say, and all will be well!” Seek the Face of Jesus and “all will be well!”
Jeremiah 31:33; Hebrews 8:10 “FOR THIS IS THE COVENANT THAT I WILL MAKE WITH THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL, AFTER THOSE DAYS, SAYS THE LORD: I WILL PUT MY LAWS INTO THEIR MINDS, AND I WILL WRITE THEM ON THEIR HEARTS. AND I WILL BE THEIR GOD, AND THEY SHALL BE MY PEOPLE.” An enduring relationship with our Heavenly Father requires Christian U.S. Law with Christian judges.
Jesus works ALL things in order to save as many lives as possible. Intimidation by threats and God’s consequences for sin in the N.T. are basically the same as written in the O.T. Just as human parents use threats and provide consequences for bad behavior, so similarly does our Heavenly Father and Jesus, which is implied in Romans 8:27-28.
Romans 8:27-28 “And He who searches our hearts knows the Mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the Will of God. And we know that God works ALL things together for the good of those who love Him, those who are called according to His purpose.”
The heresy of antinomianism, of being legally released from obeying the moral Law of Jesus, of the hyper-grace doctrine is unbiblical and contradicts the Holy Scriptures. Losing one’s soul for the price of sin is in the O.T. and also in the N.T., “The wages of sin is death.” Psalm 69:28 “May they be blotted out of the Book of Life, And may they not be recorded with the righteous.” “‘He who OVERCOMES shall thus be clothed in white garments; and I will not ERASE his name from the Book of Life, and I will confess his name before My Father, and before His angels’” (Rev 3:5).
Antinomianism, lawlessness, and thinking oneself is released from obeying the moral Law of God is sin, the heresy of hyper-grace is clearly a false doctrine. Jesus said one would be forgiven a limited number of times, however large the number of times of God's forgiveness of sin, “Seventy times seven,” daily, the Scriptures warn “God will not always strive with flesh.” There will come a time of the end of God's patience and instead of blessing, He will pour forth His Wrath of His terrible judgment and bring His eternal damnation of sinners, if there is not true repentance from the sins of breaking God’s moral Laws and precepts.
Rev 14:12 “Here is the perseverance of the saints who keep the commandments of God and their faith in Jesus.” Keeping God’s moral laws is critically necessary for eternal salvation. With our freedom of having sovereign of daily making free will decisions to stay in His Presence, seeing the Face of Jesus will be required for all eternity. Christians being discipled and trained to daily see the Face of Jesus is a matter of life and death for the churches to teach.
The WORD of God is always qualified and conditional by the rest of the Holy Scriptures. The ceremonial laws of the O.T. are fulfilled, completed, and the Law of God is entirely fulfilled by Jesus The Lamb of God. Yet civil laws and moral laws are still in effect though Christians are commanded to worship in Spirit and in Truth as Jesus told the woman at the well and NOT in the physical temple in the city of Jerusalem in Israel in the N.T. God will never honor another sacrifice of animals as proposed Jerusalem, Israel future Temple.
John 4:21-26 “Jesus said to her, ‘Woman, believe Me, an hour is coming when NEITHER IN THIS MOUNTAIN NOR IN JERUSALEM WILL YOU WORSHIP THE FATHER. 22You worship what you do not know; we worship what we know, for salvation is from the Jews. 23But an hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for such people the Father seeks to be His worshipers. 24God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in Spirit and Truth.’ 25The woman said to Him, ‘I know that MESSIAH is coming (He who is called Christ); when that One comes, He will declare all things to us.’ 26Jesus said to her, ‘I who speak to you am He.’”
It is the rejection of the Lamb, The Lamb of God’s sacrifice and rejection of God’s stated will to worship today “in Spirit and in Truth” instead of ritualistic repetitions in vain that do NOT please the LORD Jesus.
Matthew 10:27 Jesus said, “My sheep listen to My voice; I know them, and they follow Me.” Always be Led by the Holy Spirit and follow the presence of Jesus with your spirit.
Just as you may talk about someone in the same room or focusing your attention on an attractive person, they will notice with their spirit oftentimes, as their spirit leads them to be aware that someone is working spiritually to get their attention.
Sometimes deceiving spirits, such as demons, are involved in such activities (1 Kings 22:19-23). To be spiritually safe and secure always stay in the spiritual presence of Jesus while seeing the Face of God and Christians are COMMANDED “Test the spirits” to verify whether they are from God or from others or from the kingdom of darkness. Jesus knows whether your spirit and “spiritual eyes” are focused upon His Face or not and He is aware whether or not, you are actually spiritually listening to Him. As Jesus warned, “He who has EARS to hear, let them hear what the Holy Spirit is saying.”
“Then Jesus said, ‘Anyone who has EARS to hear should listen’” (Mark 4:9).
“Draw near to God and He will draw near to you!” “Come close to God, and God will come close to you. Wash your hands, you sinners; purify your hearts, for your loyalty is divided between God and the world” James 4:8 NLT.
Pursue, chase after God’s Spirit who is Love, seeking His Face and presence with all of your mind, soul, and strength.
1 Corinthians 14:1 “Pursue Love, and earnestly desire the spiritual gifts, especially that you may prophesy.”
To “prophesy,” notice Acts 15:28 “For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to us.” Speak what “seems good to the Holy Spirit” in you is prophesying. What visions and dreams the Lord Jesus gives you, speak those as it “seems good to the Holy Spirit.” As the anointing of the Holy Spirit changes from moment to moment in prayer. The Holy Spirit doing His BEST to “lead and guide you into all Truth,” speak it boldly in FAITH as “it seems good to the Holy Spirit and to you.”
Pray Jeremiah’s Prayer in Jer 10:23-24 “I know, LORD, that our lives are not our own. We are not able to plan our own course. So correct me, LORD, but please be gentle. Do not correct me in anger, for I would die.”
The mature believer will sometimes hear explicit RHEMA words of Jesus and the Holy Spirit. Prophets have specific gifts and do this better than most Christians. It is VERY IMPORTANT to distinguish between the authentic voice of Jesus, distinguishing it from other seducing voices that will work to deceive believers so their souls will be lost.
Jesus said, “My sheep do not listen to other voices.” John 10:5 “A stranger they simply will not follow, but will flee from him, because they do not know the voice of strangers.” John 10:27 “My sheep listen to My Voice; I know them, and they follow Me.”
Prophesying is the expression of the Holy Spirit anointing and an important part of Christian life in Jesus Christ.
Sometimes Christians may feel spiritually “dry” or weak. However quote a relevant Scripture such as “The Zeal for Thy House Consumes Me” and Jesus will help lift you up and help move you into His Presence of His Spirit and see His Face to find His mercy.
Consider the example given in Song of Solomon 5:1 “My heart went out to Him as He spoke. ... I opened to my Beloved; but my Beloved had withdrawn Himself, and was gone!” It is an allegory of the Bride of Christ’s spiritual relationship to her Betrothed for all of eternity. God will at times withdraw Himself (Hosea 5:15) to see if we will faithfully seek Him again and again as necessary, so seek always to be with Him and be worthy of eternal life. Seek Him to be worthy of Him as you see His Face and hear His Voice. Listen to Him and do what He says to do in this life for “God Loves Obedience” and Jesus said, “If you love Me you will Obey Me.”
Hosea 5:15 “I will go and return to My place, until they acknowledge their offense, and seek My face: in their affliction they will seek Me early.” God will send as many troubles, diseases, enemies, trials, and as much as necessary to either stimulate Christians to seek and be in the Face of Jesus or be overwhelmed and turned away forever. This is based upon the pattern of cursing and blessings written in Deuteronomy 28. “Jesus is Always the Same” and continues to use “carrot and stick” motivation to influence people to seek Him, or pay the price of rejection of the Creator of Life and all that will be forever.
Psalm 13:1 “How long will You forget me, O LORD JEHOVAH? Forever? How long will You hide Your Face from me?”
Sometimes there is a time of testing and sometimes chastisement from God and Jesus so we will learn obedience and discipline. So because of our sin, God will indeed “hide His Face” until we repent and learn to seek Him and His Face instead of seeking the pleasures of sin.
“God left him alone only to test him, that He might know all that was in his heart," (2 Chronicles 32:31b). God is “Always the Same” and every Christian is “tested” by God, “left alone” that He may determine if the Christian will make the effort to seek the presence of the Holy Spirit and Face of Jesus and please God with one’s gift of faith to work to seek God and give oneself fully to the leading of the Holy Spirit. In this case it was King Hezekiah, but in reality it is every Christian is tested. Even Christ was tested in the Wilderness by Satan. All believers will be tested at times by God’s Command so God may KNOW what is in the hearts of His disciples. It is usually the Christians who turn away from the Face of Jesus to the sin and pleasures of spiritual darkness and to the table of demons by Hollywood movies or any other sinful media or to people who are not Christians.
As God tested Abraham to find out all that was in his heart, if Abraham would give 100% to his last breath and even giving the life of his own son Isaac, as similarly our Heavenly Father gave His ONLY BEGOTTEN SON (John 3:16) that we may dwell with Him. God is CALLING all Christians to give 100% and there is sometimes “testing” by withdrawing His Presence to see whether or not Christians will make the choice to diligently seek His Face everyday in this life and in eternity. “Draw near to God and He will draw near to you!”
God gave His All, His 100% in His Son Jesus, in Heaven, Earth and in all of eternity and He wants to see if you, the Christians, if you will give their 100% now and in eternity. The Tithe or ten percent giving is not mentioned in the N.T. except as an O.T. reference. The “Pearl of Great Price” details God’s request for you to give 100% and not merely a tithe of your time, of your life and in “tithes and offerings.” To "worship God in Spirit and Truth" is with 100% of “all of your heart, mind, soul and body.”
Jesus Commanded there ONLY be divorce decrees granted under the extreme circumstances of unrepentant adultery whereas in contrast, Moses made divorce decrees easy to obtain. Romans 12:1 requires 100% of our “bodies as a living sacrifice.” Few are willing to give ALL, sacrifice ALL, overcoming the evil one, and be willing to be made a “pillar” in the presence of God and Jesus Christ forever.
The N.T. started after the “Last Supper” where the New Covenant was given and fulfilled after Christ’s death on the Cross. The Book of Revelation details the opening of the scroll of the N.T. and the beginning of the rule of King Jesus over the nations two millennia ago. Christians are sinning by deceiving themselves with heresies about a futurist rule and reign of Christ, but not helping Jesus reign now today. In the first century Christ was reigning with full authority and power over all the kings and nations as the disciples believed in Acts 1 before His ascension and being installed with absolute authority at the “right hand of His Father” FOREVER. Christ “must reign” until the “Last Trumpet” where the First Resurrection takes place on the “Last Day” as also the Second Resurrection of the damned and lost takes place. There is no one remaining on Earth after the Last Day of mankind’s existence on Earth for a “Millennium” utopian heresy to take place. It would be a Millennium utopia on Earth today if the American Christians had not played the harlot and loved to be deceived by heresies and doctrines of demons so much so that almost ALL OF THE CHILDREN’s SOULS ARE LOST with the Trillion Dollar public school system by psychological conditioning, false doctrines used in turning the students away from believing in Jesus Christ forever!
Deuteronomy 8:2 “You shall remember all the way which the LORD your God has led you in the wilderness these forty years, that He might humble you, TESTING you, to know what was in your heart, whether you would keep His commandments or not.”
Deuteronomy 8:16 “In the wilderness He fed you manna which your fathers did not know, that He might humble you and that He might test you, to do good for you in the end.” It is God’s Will to TEST all Christians to see whether they choose Good and serve Jesus and be led by the Holy Spirit or turn away to evil.
In New Heaven and New Earth will you continue to “seek His Face” and live? Or will you turn away into the eternal darkness to play and forget God and Jesus? Will you blame God? Or will you Seek His Face and Live forever? Are you willing to Seek His Face and Hear His Voice and obey His commands today (1Cor 13:12)? Or do you want to turn back to spiritual darkness, having affections for sins, for devils and for other spirits instead of being faithful and true to Jesus and to The Holy Spirit?
It isn’t just King Hezekiah in 2 Chronicles 32:31 that God wants to pray and seek His Face and Live. God and Jesus commands you also to daily seek His Face and live (1Cor 13:12). If you fail to keep your spiritual eyes on the “Sun of Righteousness,” on the source of Light of God now today and throughout eternity you will inevitably sink in sin as Peter also sank into the waters of the sea until he cried out for Jesus to save him.
As “Jesus is always the same” including the New Testament, similar tests of whether or not Christians will choose to “seek the Face of God through Jesus” daily or turn away into spiritual darkness forever. Christians will have “free will” to sin as the angels will always have free will to sin. The idea angels or people will not sin forever is unscriptural, even angels sin in eternity. There will be grace in eternity as “Grace comes through Jesus Christ” for eternity. The ONLY ONE who is pre-known from eternity to never sin is Jesus Christ, the Mediator between God and man forever. The rest of us are hopelessly sinful, or the fact is Christians would faithfully OBEY GOD and Jesus daily and stop sinning and work to save the nation’s children and work to save America and save the Christians around the Earth!
We are “the Breath” of God. As God “Breathed” into Adam and he became a living soul so our souls, our very being was once part of the Holy Spirit of God in eternity. We are made of same spiritual substance God is made of and His Spirit, or breath in us, cannot be destroyed or annihilated, as some wish to think. Human souls, and the combination of God’s Breath with our physical bodies, may only be eternally stored either in Heaven in the New Jerusalem, or be locked away in eternal exile, by “the Keys of Death and Hades” only possessed by Jesus Christ, and He only has authority over those “outer darkness” and authority over those who suffer the “Second Death” of the Lake of Fire. Jesus having the “keys of death” also means He has the power to release from death those who receive the gift of salvation and eternal life with Him that He offers. Jesus defined those who are existing on Earth as “the dead,” yet physically alive, that need to be released and saved from their sins so to have “abundant life” in Christ in this earthly life.
Just as God and Christ have a “FREE WILL” to be always Holy or we can choose to sin and do wrong as the demons have done, so Christians will have FREE WILL and will NOT be “actualized” in a fantasy lock down position of not being able to sin. Christians will ALWAYS be able to sin in Heaven, but there will be adequate time to repent throughout eternity. Christians will be able to allow the sin of “Pride” to fill their heart or repent and be humble as God and Jesus requires. “Grace and Mercy” came through Jesus Christ for all of eternity forever, if Christians behave themselves and repent.
“The LORD is compassionate and merciful (Heb. gracious); He is patient and demonstrates His great loyal love.”
“As a father has compassion on his children, so the Lord has compassion on His loyal followers. For He knows what we are made of; He realizes we are made of clay.”
Psalm 51:1-21 “Be gracious to me, God,
according to your faithful love;
according to your abundant compassion,
blot out my rebellion.
Wash away my guilt,
and cleanse me from my sin.”
God wanted someone to Love as the Bride of Christ and His Son, His Holy One. Just as Adam needed Eve, someone similar made out of the same material as Adam, so God needs someone similar made out of the same Spirit as He is, so that God could delight in and with for all of eternity. This is why even “thinking” of lust is the sin of adultery as spirits of men desire to go after women’s spirits, “wiles” deceiving spirits, instead of 100% obedience to The Holy Spirit as our Creator Desires.
Christ lives forever to mediate for repentant Christians but Christians MUST always keep from sinning. The corruption of the flesh and the “Tempter” for sinning will be gone forever in eternity having been cast into the Lake of Fire, however multitudes will be in the “Lake of Fire” forever. For example the “666” Caesar and Nero and the False prophet may have ALREADY been cast in the Lake of Fire as Jesus said had already been in existence at the time He spoke of it. “God is a Consuming Fire” and multitudes have earned God’s Wrath as the American harlot Christians also have.
Imagine parents and sometimes churches callously tossing their children into the government indoctrination educational system to be forced indoctrinated, brainwashed by the official state religions and taught pagan religions and multiculturalism, seducing the children to sin with LGBTQ. The Bible FORBIDS indoctrination of the children to the sinful ways of pagan cultures. Turning the children’s spirits, souls and minds away from believing in Jesus and damning them to enter the gates of hell, forcing the children into the kingdom of spiritual darkness. Losing 94% of the public school graduates to the devils that have mastered their minds and souls, is NOT God’s Will! It was God’s Will to have the Gospel of Life in Jesus to have been proclaimed to them in the public schools that they and America may be blessed. God requires America to be a Christian nation today, so He may show grace and grant mercy for tomorrow.
Eze 37:23 “They will no longer defile themselves with their idols [multiculturalism], or with their detestable things, or with any of their transgressions; but I will deliver them from all their dwelling places in which they have sinned, and will cleanse them. And they will be My people, and I will be their God.”
There is a terrible price to be paid for Christians failing to sanctify their homes. 2Co 6:16 “Or what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For we are the Temple of the Living God; just as God said, “I WILL DWELL IN THEM AND WALK AMONG THEM; AND I WILL BE THEIR GOD, AND THEY SHALL BE MY PEOPLE.”
Eze 37:27 “My dwelling place also will be with them; and I will be their God, and they will be My people.” God has fulfilled His Covenant Promise to dwell with Christians as written in 2Co 6:16. Christians are to forsake their idols and work to sanctify themselves and work to save the children being psychologically conditioned so to be turned away from King Jesus in the public schools with the state religions of half-truths and lies.
Luke 4:8 Jesus answered him, “It is written, ‘YOU SHALL WORSHIP THE LORD YOUR GOD AND SERVE HIM ONLY.’”
Mt 12:30 “He who is not with Me is against Me; and he who does not gather with Me scatters.”
Mark 12:29-30 Jesus answered, “The foremost is, ‘HEAR, O ISRAEL! THE LORD OUR GOD IS ONE LORD; AND YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, AND WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND, AND WITH ALL YOUR STRENGTH.’” This is required today for those who desire to remain in the presence of Jesus forever.
John 14:14-16 “If you ask Me anything in My Name, I will do it. If you love Me, you will keep My commandments. And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Advocate [gift of the Holy Spirit] to be with you forever.” This living relationship with the Creator in His Son Jesus is available to all Christians today!
Serving Jesus “in Spirit and in Truth” is required today!
2 Kings 6:17 “Then Elisha prayed and said, “O LORD, I pray, open his eyes that he may see.” And the LORD opened the servant’s eyes, and he saw; and behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.” It remains the duty of Christians to pray for one another daily so that Christians may have their “eyes opened,” so as to “See the Face of Jesus” daily and pray for each other the eyes of our hearts will have the Holy Scriptures opened to our understanding daily.
Psalm 119:18 “Open my eyes, that I may behold Wonderful things from Thy law.”
Psalm 30 is about giving Thanksgiving for Deliverance from Death.
Psalm 30 “I will extol You, O LORD, for You have lifted me up, And have not let my enemies rejoice over me.
O LORD my God, I cried to You for help, and You healed me.
O LORD, You have brought up my soul from Sheol;
You have kept me alive, that I would not go down to the pit.
Sing praise to the LORD, you His godly ones And give thanks to His Holy Name. For His anger is but for a moment, His favor is for a lifetime;
Weeping may last for the night, But a SHOUT OF JOY comes in the morning.
Now as for me, I said in my prosperity, “I will never be moved.”
O LORD, by Your favor You have made my mountain to stand strong; YOU HID YOUR FACE, I WAS DISMAYED.
To You, O LORD, I called, And to the Lord I made supplication:
“What profit is there in my blood, if I go down to the pit?
Will the dust praise You?
Will it declare Your faithfulness?
“Hear, O LORD, and be gracious to me; O LORD, be my helper.”
You have turned for me my mourning into dancing;
You have loosed my sackcloth and girded me with gladness;
That my soul may sing praise to You and not be silent.
O LORD my God, I will give thanks to You forever.”
God also commands Clap Your Hands, All You Peoples in order to worship Him in Spirit and in Truth.
Psalm 47:1-2 “For the choir director.
A Psalm of the sons of Korah.
O clap your hands, all peoples;
Shout to God with the voice of joy.
For the LORD Most High is to be feared,
A great King over all the earth.”
Acts 26:18 “to OPEN THEIR [spiritual] EYES so that they may turn from [spiritual] darkness to light and from the dominion of Satan to God, in order that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those who have been sanctified by faith in Me.”
Revelation 3:18 “I advise you to buy from Me gold refined by fire, that you may become rich, and white garments, that you may clothe yourself, and that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and eye salve to anoint your eyes, that you may see.” Pray for the spiritual EYE salve that you may SEE the manifestation of the Holy Spirit and the presence of Jesus, seeking to spiritually see His Face and understand what God and Jesus call you to do in your life.
Jesus actually threatens the seven churches of the Apocalypse with eternal damnation if they continue to sin by being spiritually blind to Him and oppose His leading their lives. As a consequence of failing to spiritually look at His Face constantly (1 Cor 13:2), Jesus will “spew” and cast them out into the eternal darkness and they will lose their salvation forever (Rev 3:14-22).
Matthew 13:15 “FOR THE HEART OF THIS PEOPLE HAS BECOME DULL, AND WITH THEIR EARS THEY SCARCELY HEAR, AND THEY HAVE CLOSED THEIR EYES, LEST THEY SHOULD SEE WITH THEIR EYES, AND HEAR WITH THEIR EARS, AND UNDERSTAND WITH THEIR HEART AND RETURN, AND I SHOULD HEAL THEM.”
If Christians want to be healed, it is important to ask Jesus to heal their spiritual eyesight, so we may return to the presence of God and see the Face of Jesus.
1 Chronicles 16:11 “Seek the LORD and His Strength. SEEK HIS FACE FOREVER MORE.”
Psalm 105:4 “Seek the LORD and His Strength; SEEK HIS FACE EVERMORE.”
The Command of God and Jesus is to seek His Face Forever-more.
In Revelation 3:14-22 Christ introduced himself to the church at Laodicea as “the Amen, the Faithful and ... He spoke and did only what the Father commanded Him, no matter what the consequences were (John 3:34; 5:36; 12:49). ... The Laodicean church was spiritually blind and about to lose their salvation! Similar to the Laodicean church sins of today where many churches and Christians are also spiritually blind and in danger of losing their souls forever as Jesus also threatened the Laodiceans to repent or lose everything forever.
Ezekiel 12:2 “Son of man, you live in the midst of the rebellious house, who have EYES TO SEE BUT DO NOT SEE [cf Revelation 3:14-22], ears to hear but do not hear; for they are a rebellious house.” Most of the spiritually BLIND American apostate church is a “rebellious house,” failing to seek the Face of Jesus daily and fails to understand it is treason to King Jesus to oppose Christian Law and opposing God and Christ’s Kingdom on Earth and permitting King JESUS sovereignly reign for good, so to restore Christian liberties and freedoms by changing U.S. Law in order to preach the Gospel to save the children in the government schools and save America from her enemies. It is God and Jesus Command to express the Kingdom of God first in your heart and then eventually through the work of your hands and in all other aspects of your life, including in government elections. “Thy Kingdom Come Thy Will be done,” or fight King Jesus and pray Thy Kingdom don’t come, in rebellion, outlawing God’s Name of Jesus (Col 3:17) in Chaplains, government schools and in the media and nation? The choice is yours. “The Wages of Sin is Death.”
Ezekiel 40:4 “And the man said to me, “Son of man, SEE WITH YOUR EYES, hear with your ears, and give attention to all that I am going to show you; for you have been brought here in order to show it to you. Declare to the house of Israel all that you see.” Ask Jesus to heal your spiritual eyes, to heal your ears so to hear the Holy Spirit and open your understanding to His Truth so to save as many souls and lives of men, women and children as much as possible.
“Think about the things of heaven, not about the things of earth” Colossians 3:2. Always “looking for Jesus The Way” and being “Led by the Spirit.”
John 1:12 “But to all who believed Him and accepted him, He gave the [legal] right, power and authority to become children of God.”
Romans 8:14 “For all who are being Led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God.” Being led by the Holy Spirit will lead Christians to “See The Face” of God and Jesus and to receive greater blessings and spiritual success in spiritual warfare.
Galatians 5:18 “But if you are Led by the Spirit, you are not under the Law.” Jesus will NEVER break God’s Law, and if you are following the Holy Spirit you will never break God’s Law. 1 John 2:1 “My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.” Repent of sin and God’s legal defender will move His Father The Judge, to dismiss the charges of sinning against God and will forgive us.
There is no such thing as “secular.” There is only the Kingdom of God and the kingdom of Darkness. Be careful where and how you focus your attention and petition God for His promise of providing the spiritual gift of “the Mind of Christ.” God will keep His Promise to give Christians “The Mind of Christ.”
2 Timothy 1:6-7 (NLT) “This is why I remind you to fan into flames the spiritual gift God gave you when I laid my hands on you. For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, His Love, and self-discipline.” Luke 12:49 Jesus said, “I have come to bring fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled!” Acts 2:3 “And tongues, like flames of fire that were divided, appeared to them and rested on each one of them.”
John the Baptist spoke of The Mission of Jesus in Matthew 3:10-12 "The ax is already laid at the root of the trees; therefore every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. "As for me, I baptize you with water for repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, and I am not fit to remove His sandals; He will BAPTIZE you with the Holy Spirit and FIRE. "His winnowing fork is in His hand, and He will thoroughly clear His threshing floor, and He will gather His wheat into the barn, but He will burn up the chaff with unquenchable FIRE.”
Looking into the “Face of Jesus” is the best time to “TEST THE SPIRITS,” discerning the spiritual voices, which are usually deceiving spirits or devils, and ask Jesus your questions and pray for others with setting preconditions. It is up to those whom you are praying while looking at the Face of Jesus, for them to repent of their sins and it is according to their faith. Jesus will lead you out of the spiritual confusion and help you to get out of spiritual “Babylon.”
The key to power is when looking at the Face of Jesus, you begin to pray for others and THEN you will notice the power beginning to flow from Him through you to others. Just as the woman with the issue of blood, Jesus felt power flow out from Him and so will you and all Christians that obey Him to save themselves working out their salvation in fear and trembling. This is also the key to understanding the basis of Holy Ghost Power flowing through the Philadelphia Church in Rev 3:8. Having God's Power flowing is key to having a healthy church and it helps keeping the door open for successful evangelism recruiting.
Revelation 3:8 "I know your deeds. See, I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut. I know that you have little power (Gk dunamis, dynamite power), yet you have kept my WORD and have not denied My Name."
The anointing of the Holy Spirit “breaks the yoke” of sin. The greater the anointing is then there is more deliverance from sin, more miracles, healings, signs, and wonders.
Rev 3:12 “‘He who OVERCOMES, I will make him a pillar in the temple of My God, and he will not go out from it anymore; and I will write upon him the Name of My God, and the Name of the city of My God, the New Jerusalem, which comes down out of Heaven from My God, and My New Name.” Being made into a “pillar” in the eternal temple of Jesus which does “not go out from it” means always being in the Presence of His Face forever for all eternity.
“Overcoming” defined in 1 John 2:14b “I have written to you, young men, because you are strong, and the WORD of God abides in you, and you have OVERCOME the evil one.” The young, and God also restores the youth of elders (elders are usually older and wiser Christians having gray hair Proverbs 16:31; 20:29), are commanded to OVERCOME Satan and destroy the works of spiritual darkness with Jesus. Staying in The FACE of JESUS is key to defeating and overcoming Satan.
Seeing the Face of Jesus is Key to the Keys of the Kingdom of Jesus for all the blessings and Love Jesus gives to His Church, His Bride.
Jesus came to destroy the works of darkness in your life. “…Little children, let no one deceive you: The one who practices righteousness is righteous, just as Christ is righteous. The one who practices sin is of the devil, because the devil has been sinning from the very start. This is why the Son of God was revealed, to destroy the works of the devil. Anyone born of God refuses to practice sin, because God’s Seed abides in him; he cannot go on sinning, because he has been born of God.… (1 John 3:7-9).
Staying the Face of Jesus is key to deliverance from spiritual oppression. As believers submit unto God and seek or “get in God’s Face,” resisting the devil, the devils and powers of darkness will “flee away,” making the Christians victorious “OVERCOMERS” as repeatedly commanded by Jesus.
“Seeing the Face of Jesus” is key to “Putting On Christ” who is your spiritual armor to protect you from the sometimes fiery darts of demons, written about in Ephesians 6:10-18.
Ephesians 6:16 “In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.” The “shield of faith” is spiritually important and a matter of life and death for our physical bodies so to stay healthy.
Romans 13:14 “Rather, clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ, and do not think about how to gratify the desires of the flesh.” As Jesus said, to even think about sinful things is the same as actually doing them. Therefore God supplies supernatural power as the solution is spiritually seeing the Face of Jesus and He will help you bring all thoughts into obedience to the “Mind of Christ” which is also a supernatural gift.
When Jesus said, “every day our thoughts will be judged,” that day has come as the “Mind of Christ” is required of all Christians and bringing all thoughts into obedience to the “Mind of Christ” is the Command of Jesus for today! “We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ” 2 Cor 10:15.
This is also why boys do better in classes of all boys historically, before Christ was banned from public schools. Boys are able to focus on the subject being taught instead of thinking of sex every few seconds throughout the school day. Since Christ has banned from the government schools, demons are dominating the classrooms resulting in the collapse of the culture and failure of the nation.
To “OVERCOME” and “stay in The Face of Jesus” in this life and make the Christians eligible to made into eternal pillars in The Face and in the presence of Jesus forever in New Jerusalem.
Jesus came to give us an endless supply of Life— “…that you may be filled with ALL the FULLNESS of God” (Ephesians 3:19). A moral decision to repent from sinning is actually a spiritual decision with our spirit. “You shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you…” (Acts 1:8)— power as a gift of the presence of the Holy Spirit; the power is given by the Holy Spirit by God the Father’s sovereign decisions.
As a Christian are “Filled with the Holy Spirit” and yield their spirit wholly to the Will of our Heavenly Father (Matthew 6:10) Christians, the temple of God, as a mirror obscurely reflects Our Heavenly Father and Jesus in His “image and likeness,” from the inside shining out. As Jesus said, “Let your light shine” as “God is Light” and it is Our Heavenly Father’s Will to shine His spiritual Light out into a dark spiritual world of lost souls.
“God is Love” and 1 Cor 13:12 shows it is God’s Love and presence of His Love that empowers Christians to spiritually walk in The Way in this life.
“Love OVERCOMES evil!” By staying in the presence of True Love of God in Jesus, Christians will learn to be true “OVERCOMERS.”
Ro 12:21 “Do not be OVERCOME by evil, but OVERCOME evil with Good.”
“God is Good” and as Christians “run after Love as in a veritable chase,” God Himself, with your free will submitting to His Holy Spirit, will OVERCOME the evil. “OVERCOME evil with Good.”
“Earnestly follow after Love” as in a veritable chase (1Cor 14:1). To obey 1 Cor 13:12 results in seeing His Face through Jesus and receiving more spiritual gifts as He puts it into your heart to worship Him and seek Him with all of your heart, mind, soul, and strength. Jesus will let Himself be found if you are willing to seek Him with all of your heart. “And it is impossible to please God without faith. Who wants to come to Him must believe that God exists and that He rewards those who sincerely seek Him” Hebrews 11:6.
Romans 12:3b “God has distributed a measure of faith to each one.” 2Thess 3:2-3 “Pray, too, that we will be rescued from wicked and evil people, for not everyone is a believer. But the Lord is faithful; He will strengthen you and guard you from the evil one.” “Not all men have faith!” Unreasonable and wicked men do not have the faith that Jesus gives to His people.
Romans 14:23b “Whatever is not of Faith is sin!” “Everything that does not come from Faith is sin.” “If you do anything you believe is not right, you are sinning.” “For whatever does not proceed from Faith is sin.” “Whatsoever is not from Faith is sin.” Whatever that is not from the Faith that pleases God, is sin!” For whatever you have done that is not from Faith cannot please God and Jesus (Heb 11:6a).
The Great Commandment of God and “Jesus said unto him, ‘Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with ALL thy heart, and with ALL thy soul, and with ALL thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets’” (KJV Matthew 22:37-40).
Jesus said, “Be Perfect as your Heavenly Father is Perfect.” God has not changed or reduced His qualifications by allowing entry level, infants babies and “born again” Christians into Heaven. Jesus wants full Charisma spiritual gifts taught, operated and mature Christlike character developed by Christians.
So to worship God with all of your mind means 100% all of the time. To worship God with all of your soul means 100% all of the time. To worship God with all of your strength means your 100% is required all of the time. This fantastic requirement is achieved as Jesus who refrained from His own will and desires and whatever His Father told Christ to do in visions, that is what Jesus spoke and did. As Jesus said in John 6:38 “For I have come down from heaven to do the will of God who sent me, not to do my own will.” Jesus always did what was pleasing to His Heavenly Father and so should all Christians (John 8:29).
As Jesus said He could do nothing on His own initiative, neither may we do anything on our own initiative. It is ONLY by listening to Jesus and to the Holy Spirit, and sometimes listening to angels in the presence of God and Jesus speaking to us as God gives them the words to speak, as the example of Peter listening to the angel that helped him escape from prison and certain premature martyrdom.
“Follow after Love, and earnestly desire spiritual gifts, but especially that you may prophesy” 1Cor 14:1 WEB.
James 4:7 “Submit therefore to God, Resist the devil and he will flee from you.”
True Love of God is as Jesus said, “If you love Me you will OBEY Me.” True Love of God is both following after God’s Love and also faithfully obeying what Jesus has said to do.
True Love is defined as pursuing God’s Love and seeking spiritual gifts. 1Cor 14:1-2 “Earnestly pursue love and eagerly desire spiritual gifts, especially the gift of prophecy. For he who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men, but to God. Indeed, no one understands him; he utters mysteries in the Spirit.”
The Bible COMMANDS to not forbid speaking in tongues as many sinful churches forbid praying in the Holy Spirit in tongues. “Therefore, my brothers and sisters, be eager to prophesy, and do not forbid speaking in tongues” 1 Cor 14:39. Apostle Paul spoke in tongues in praying in the spirit more than Christians at Corinth (1Cor 14:18).
Mark 11:22 “Jesus answered saying to them, “Have faith in God.”
John 3:18 “He who believes in Him is NOT judged; he who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the Name of the only begotten Son of God.” Believe in Christians as the “Temple of God” and believe in God in your Christian friends and Christian leaders. The supernatural power of belief in God in true Christians, as God’s Temple, will help empower each Christian to do the works Jesus has called each one to do.
To please God and to have more effective prayers accomplishing the goals of God and Jesus, prioritize putting your gift of Faith (Romans 12:3) in God in each Christian, as each Christian is the “Temple of God.” Put your Faith in His Name of Jesus in God in His temples of each other as Christians work together in teams daily (Acts 3:16). Accomplish the Will of Jesus Christ by always putting your Faith (Hebrews 11:1) wherever you find Jesus in faithful Christians and have “Life more abundantly.”
Finally, people are spirits, and tend to “mirror” spirits, especially with the countenance of their faces. Married couples faces sometimes spiritually “mirror” each other’s spirit resulting in having similar facial expressions at times. Some people are mirroring spirits of depression and other evil spirits. Married husbands and wives have similar facial expressions as they mirror the same spirit. Possibly each soul/spirit is mirroring the spouses’ soul/spirit as their souls become “one” as the Bible commands (John 17). God wants us to “mirror obscurely/dimly” The Holy Spirit and mirror the Face of Jesus all of our time, instead of only ”mirroring" other spirits and gods, as much as it is possible as each of us learn His Way. The First of the Ten Commandments has written, “You shall have no other gods before Me,” Exodus 20:3. Do your very best not to spiritually mirror demons, devils and the gods of this world with your face and spirit.
Stirring up one’s charisma gifts is good, “fan into flames the gift from God” 1Timothy 1:6, but not necessarily the same as “seeing The Face of Jesus.” Jesus is spiritually manifesting Himself in the presence of “two or three” believers meeting in the Name of Jesus. Matthew 18:20 “For where two or three have gathered together in My Name, I am there in their midst.”
Therefore as Christians “mirror dimly” The Face of Jesus, Christians experience deliverance from demonic oppression and from sinful human spirits of unsaved people. We are to be the same as Moses, speaking “face to face” with God regularly (1Cor 13:12). It remains His desire for all of God’s people today and forever. And to be like Evangelist Stephen in Acts whose face, like Moses’ face glowed by the Light and power of God and the angel of His presence, mirroring obscurely in the “Image and Likeness” of God in Acts 6:15 And fixing their gaze upon him, all who were sitting in the Council saw his face like the face of an angel.”
Jesus always keeps His promises and watches over His WORD to perform it. Jesus promises His disciples, “For it is not you who will be speaking—it will be the Spirit of your Father speaking through you” Matthew 10:20. These were not the last words Evangelist Stephen before the Jewish Council, but “oracles of God” in the last words given by our Heavenly Father for Stephen to speak at the time just before he was martyred.
Matthew 10:19b-20 Jesus said, “Do not worry about how or what you are to say; for it will be given you in that hour what you are to say. For it is not you who speak, but it is the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you.” Pray for one another to speak “The Oracles of God” as Apostle Paul asked Christians to pray that he would actually speak the Oracles of God. It is the Creator, speaking through Christians in their relationship through His Son Jesus Christ.
1Peter 4:11 “Whoever speaks, as one who speaks oracles of God; whoever serves, as one who serves by the strength that God supplies—in order that in everything God may be glorified through Jesus Christ. To him belong glory and dominion forever and ever Amen.” ... Pattern your lives in this respect (Mt 7:29; John 12:49; 14:10; compare yourselves with Paul, 2Cor 2:17).
Christians must daily practice seeking the “Face of Jesus,” the spiritual warm spot in the midst of “two or three Charismatic Holy Spirit filled believers touching and agreeing in prayer. In the warm comforting presence of The Glory of the LORD Jesus, is His Face. “God Dwells in the Praises of His People” (Psalm 22:3), so praise Jesus in public or in private and Jesus will meet you in prayer and help you to see His Face. Many Christians are content to merely stir up their own spiritual gifts and worship God in “signs and wonders” however they often fail to actually seek The Face of Jesus, who is actually in the midst of worshipping Christians, who will listen and help in every way possible as His WORD promises. Thus it is more than only experiencing the presence of Jesus, but actually getting in to see His Face of God today and forever.
Jesus commands true disciples in Mark 5:48 “Be perfect, therefore, as your Heavenly Father is perfect.” This is also achieved as Christians see the Face of God and Jesus spiritually. As Christians spiritually see the Face of Jesus, sometimes there is a vision He gives to us, with Him doing something He wants us to do as Jesus did (John 5:19). Then when this vision happens, it usually becomes easier to hear the Holy Spirit speaking the WORDS of God our Father and Jesus. “So Jesus explained, 'I tell you the truth, the Son can do nothing by himself. He does only what he sees the Father doing. Whatever the Father does, the Son also does'” (John 5:19). Doing what the Father and His Son does is what it means being “Perfect as your Heavenly Father is Perfect.” As long as Christians are actually seeing the Face of Jesus, which is the same as seeing our Heavenly Father as Jesus said in John 12:45 and John 14:9.
Seeing the Face of God our Father and Jesus in New Jerusalem is what the Holy Spirit desires for each Christian to learn to do. As Jesus constantly saw His Father in a vision and did what His Heavenly Father taught Him to do in the vision, so Christians today are commanded to see the Face of God and Jesus in order to be “PERFECT” as our Heavenly Father is PERFECT and learn to OBEY GOD while actually looking at Him spiritually and in visions as Jesus did with His Father (John 5:19). In John 17 Jesus prayed that all Christians would come into the same type of relationship with Our Heavenly Father through Jesus Christ His Son (John 5:19). Becoming “One” with God and being sanctified in Truth is the Will of God and Jesus.
John 17: 20-23 “I do not ask on behalf of these alone, but for those also who believe in Me through their word; that THEY MAY ALL BE ONE; even as You, Father, are in Me and I in You, that they also may be in Us, so that the world may believe that You sent Me. The glory which You have given Me I have given to them, that they may be one, just AS WE ARE ONE; I in them and You in Me, that they may be perfected in UNITY, so that the world may know that You sent Me, and loved them, even as You have loved Me.”
Jesus is our example and as He sought to see the Face of His Father in visions (John 5:19) of what He was to do is how He knew what would result in good works, healings, and miracles.
John 5:19-23 “So Jesus explained, ‘I tell you the truth, the Son can do nothing by Himself. He DOES ONLY WHATEVER HE SEES THE FATHER DOING. WHATEVER THE FATHER DOES, THE SON ALSO DOES.’” Supernatural works of Jesus requires faithful obedience to being led by the Spirit and doing whatever authentic Holy Spirit "visions" show you what to do. True relationship with God and Jesus requires full OBEDIENCE 24/7 (John 5:19). It is a good thing salvation is by grace, as only a few Christians obey Jesus as He desires, or the USA would have been a Christian nation today!!!
John 5:20-23 “For the Father loves the Son and shows Him everything He is doing. In fact, the Father will show Him how to do even greater works than healing this man. Then you will truly be astonished. For just as the Father gives life to those He raises from the dead, so the Son gives life to anyone He wants. Instead, He has given the Son ABSOLUTE AUTHORITY TO JUDGE, so that everyone will honor the Son, just as they honor the Father. Anyone who does not honor the Son is certainly not honoring our Father in Heaven who sent Him.”
As Mt 28:18 has written, Jesus now has ABSOLUTE AUTHORITY and power now, today and there will be no further upgrades in His ABSOLUTE AUTHORITY in the time Mankind has left on Earth to physically exist. For those who want a Millennium Utopia, they had better give a thousand years of repentance starting today that will meet the high expectations of holiness that King Jesus and His Father demand of His people.
Jesus now has ABSOLUTE AUTHORITY as the SUPREME RULER of the Kings of the Earth today (1Cor 15:25; Rev 1:5; 11:17b).
In Rev 1:5 Jesus is not merely a “Prince” as the KJV has written, but the greek word translated as “Prince” is ARCHON, Jesus Christ is the ABSOLUTE SUPREME SOVEREIGN RULER, the KING of Kings and LORD of Lords of all kings and rules over Earth’s nations today!
What confuses people is Satan was the “god of this world” ONLY before the cross in the O.T. After the cross and resurrection of Jesus, Satan was demoted from being the ruler of earth, to being merely “the prince and power of the air.” Satan was reduced from his reign as written in the greek: “ARCHON” and replaced by Christ Jesus as supreme ARCHON of Heaven and Earth over all earth's kings, rulers and nations until the end (Rev 1:5).
The high levels of miracles in the first century are available today if the Christians will repent of their heresies and stop opposing Christian U.S. Law and Christ's Kingdom on Earth today!

After the resurrection in Mathew 28:18 where all authority was given to Christ and Christ being granted His kingdom on Earth and absolute sovereignty over all the nations as Acts 1:7 recognizes in the last and greatest question of the apostles to Christ, before His ascension and sitting down in absolute power and sovereignty at the right side of His Father, the last and greatest question was about having some sovereign Christian POLITICAL nations starting with the kingdom of Israel and not having the pagan Romans rule and reigning over them.
Jesus did NOT rebuke the disciples for wanting earthly nations in Acts 1:7. The Apostles who had years of indoctrination on the Kingdom of God and Christ on Earth as the greatest doctrine of Jesus of having CHRISTIAN NATIONS. But were told they were not to be concerned at that time about the details, but seek the gift of the Holy Spirit in Jerusalem, which was first given at Pentecost in Acts 2.
Jesus is the “Rock” of Daniel’s 70 weeks that grew to “Fill the whole Earth” after His resurrection. Jesus is the Mountain (Zion) that grew to fill the whole Earth.
Zech 14:16-17 refers to the nations going “upto” Jerusalem on the global spiritual Mt Zion which is being fulfilled today by the spiritual MOUNTAIN of Christ the Rock growing to fill the entire earth, along with the “lively stones” of the Temple in the process of being built spiritually today in all nations, with each Christian playing a part with the worship of God in Spirit and in The Truth of Christ Jesus. Each Christian and the nations must go up Mount Zion to Worship God the Father in Jesus Christ His Son or be cursed. Zech 14:16-17 has written about a “future tabernacles feast” fulfillment instead of realizing Christ Jesus is our Tabernacle, our booth in which we already dwell and all Christians are required to go up Mt Zion with the spiritual new city under construction of New Jerusalem. Failure for Christians and nations to spiritually “climb” Mt Zion will result in God’s Curse and demons let loose upon the disobedient Christians as Jesus decides.
Christians are taught a “doctrine of demons” about the futurist deception of a Millennium of the one thousand year rule of King Jesus in Earthly physical Jerusalem, Israel. Can you imagine the “traffic jam” of a billion people going up the physical Mt Zion to worship God in Christ Jesus in a physical Temple every year? Such literalism is demonic and horrifying in the consequences as almost all the children are forced indoctrinated and their souls corrupted with the LGBTQ debauchery in the public schools. Barna Research Group polls have almost all children (94% or more) turned from believing in King Jesus by the time of graduation from high school.
Rev 20:1 “When the thousand years are over, Satan will be released from his prison.” Just as God owning the “cattle on a thousand hills,” Jesus ruling for only “a thousand years” of the Millennium doctrine is diabolical. It is a scheme to deceive the people and to lull them into a tragic stupor while their nation and children are turned away from believing in Jesus so they are damned.
“Thousand” in the Bible means everything, forever, King Jesus rules forever without interruption. It isn’t Jesus who ended His rule, it is the idolatry of heresies, destroying the children and refusing to serve King Jesus in the U.S. Government and in the public schools that ended the grace of God for the nation. The harlot Christians ended all hope of serving King Jesus in America and saving children with Christian U.S. Law. It isn’t the end of Jesus rule, but deceived Christians ending the rule of Jesus in the USA by their apathy, hard heartedness, and rebellion against having a Christian nation by U.S. Law.
Therefore as a consequence of ending the reign of Jesus in the U.S. Government and public schools as much as possible, Jesus lets Satan and the demons, fallen angels, “out of the pit,” out of the captivity where they are imprisoned so they may deceive, torment, and destroy harlot Christians and bring the final ruin and desolation of the USA.
If the Christians harden their hearts and have no repentance of their opposing Christian U.S. Law, means no mercy or very little mercy from King Jesus. Jesus actually expects to be obeyed in this life by Christians on Earth today, and they are not believe doctrines of demons about a golden age utopian Millennium where the Christians will not have to do anything to make the nation Christian by U.S. Law. Jesus said about His Kingdom on Earth to the Roman Governor, "My Servants would Fight" for His Kingdom on Earth. After the cross, after years of teaching on the Kingdom of God having Christian nations on Earth, the last and greatest question the original apostles asked before Christ's ascension to absolute authority and power in Heaven was if it was the time for Israel to be a sovereign nation. Jesus said there would be "times and seasons" for Christian nations (Acts 1:7-8).
The definition of insanity according to some, is “doing the same thing over and over again expecting a different result.” Opposing King Jesus and opposing Christian U.S. Law and making an idol of a hopeless “secular law” “level playing field” or "neutral" ideal for the public schools has resulted in the almost extinction of Christianity in the USA as mandated state religions taught are “driving Christianity to oblivion” as Pope Benedict XVI said.
Protestant Reformer Martin Luther also said the schools, without a discipling Christian curriculum , would eventually drive the children through the “gates of hell.” This has been almost fully accomplished in the American antichrist public school system today! In America, in the government schools, workplace and in public spaces, evangelism/proselytism in Jesus Name has been outlawed by U.S. Law.
The Christian Lawyers oppose Christian U.S. Law making Almighty God and Jesus Terrible Judgment for the coming radioactive desolation of the USA (including the nations of the northern hemisphere) a matter of fact, as evidenced by Russia and others relentlessly building up their nuclear war capability into every part of the military... President Trump is a reprieve from God so Christians in government may serve Jesus and MAGA, "Make America Great Again!" Serving Jesus is what made America great historically and could make America great again. Unfortunately the foolish Christians doing little or nothing to save the nation's children souls by changing U.S. Law.
Morality is made into law by Congress, (example LGBTQ) and by the courts, it is matter of whose morality is made law. Laws enabling wicked men or the Law of King Jesus and His Kingdom on Earth!
This is another important reason why it is imperative the United States immediately become a Christian nation A.S.A.P. by U.S. Law with the Christian Amendment or pay the full terrible price of continuing the sin of treason against God and King Jesus Christ. Christians failing in their duty to the nation’s children, destroying all hope for the idolatry of immoral “secular law” instead of establishing God and Christ’s Kingdom here on Earth in Christian U.S. Law.
Electing a “Pastor in Chief” as the U.S. President uses his "Bully Pulpit" and also voting for all elected leaders who are willing to work to serve Jesus in government so to save the children and save the nation from its enemies by obeying God and Jesus in His policies, is a matter of life or death. It would be optimum for Prophet Judges to be Christian leaders as written in the Book of Judges to rule the nations. However Jesus is realistic and very practical as He worked with King David who was a prophet. Also the truth is God is unwilling that anyone should perish, He is willing to work with imperfect Christians.
God continues to work all things together for good and for the best His infinite genius can accomplish with highly uncooperative (rebellious) Christians and Churches today who fight against The Kingdom of God and King Jesus Christ ruling in U.S. Law. However there comes a time when “God will not always strive with flesh.” Just as Luke 19:27 has written King Jesus will slaughter and kill those who are not willing to let Him be King now in this life at this time. Just as King Jesus stood and watched the slaughter of Jerusalem who rejected His reign and rejected His Salvation.
As Jesus told the woman at the well in John 4:24, the geographical locations of Jerusalem, Israel and the Temple would be NOT used for global worship in the N.T. after His Resurrection, instead there would true “Worship in Spirit and in Truth” world-wide in nations all over the earth.
The Christians all over the Earth are as “lively” stones on the spiritual global Mount Zion (Daniel 2:35), in Christ being built together into a dwelling, a Temple for God, as the Bride of Christ Jesus in the New City of the eternal New Jerusalem.
The Earth’s nations are to go up into Jesus on the spiritual Mount Zion of Christ in their hearts all over the earth in their own nations (Daniel 2:35) and worship Him in “Spirit and in Truth.”
Whether American Christians want to believe the Truth or not believe, Today King Jesus is ruling, and He “must reign until He has put all His enemies under His feet” (1Cor 15:25). There will be no further upgrades in His power and authority, or in His judgments for a fantasy utopia heretical version of the Millennium on this earth. Christ is reigning now as absolute ruler, greek ARCHON, of Heaven and of Earth (Mt 28:18). Before the completion of Christ's work (John 19:30) on the cross when Jesus was tempted by Satan the "ruler (greek ARCHON) of the nations of the earth." After the cross and resurrection King Jesus had ALL authority over the nations (Mt 28:18) transferred to Him and King Jesus is reigning now (1Cor 15:25). Many believe Jesus is not reigning now which is sin. The sin of unbelief, or the sin of rebellion in not wanting the reign of Christ for the sake of fantasies and personal idols of heresies about the Millennium.
1Cor 15:20-28 “But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the first-fruits of those who have fallen asleep. For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead comes also through a man. For as in Adam all die, so in Christ ALL will be made ALIVE. But each in turn: Christ, the first-fruits; then, when he comes, those who belong to Him. THE END WILL COME, WHEN HE HANDS OVER THE KINGDOM [He is already reigning over the nations today!] TO GOD THE FATHER AFTER HE HAS DESTROYED ALL DOMINION, AUTHORITY AND POWER. v25 For HE MUST REIGN UNTIL HE HAS PUT ALL HIS ENEMIES UNDER HIS FEET. The last enemy to be destroyed is death. For He “has put everything under His feet.” Now when it says that “everything” has been put under Him, it is clear that this does not include God Himself, who put everything under Christ. 28When he has done this, then the Son Himself will be made subject to Him who put EVERYTHING UNDER HIM, so that GOD MAY BE ALL IN ALL IN ETERNITY.
Christians who believe Jesus is not reigning now may suffer and lose everything and be without God and Jesus forever. In Luke 19:27 Jesus damns those who will not let Him reign over the Earth's nations then and in the future. The USA must repent and let Jesus reign in Truth and in Law today or will lose everything as Israel did circa 70 A.D.
King Jesus is already reigning from New Jerusalem and Jesus reigns in the hearts of obedient Christians on Earth!
As Mount Zion FILLS, or more precisely is FILLING more and more of the whole Earth, Jesus, from spiritual Mount Zion is ALREADY RULING AND REIGNING over all the kings and Earth's nations today! Merely because the deceived or harlot American Christians are opposing Christian Law and destroying the souls of the children, it does not mitigate the fact that King Jesus is watching and His terrible wrath is coming against the “children of disobedience” the American harlot Christians have become, due to their sin of unbelief. The sin of unbelief cost, the adults twenty years and older, their lives under the leadership of Moses, except Joshua and Caleb who had faith and were willing to obey the Command of God to take possession of the “Promised Land.” America was another “Promised Land” figuratively and should have been a Christian nation by U.S. Law instead of the USA working to erase Christianity from most nations on Earth with the false gods and demons of the supreme state religion of Civil Government.
The Great Commission is Commanded by Jesus in Matthew 28:19.
Matthew 28:18-20 “Jesus came and told his disciples, ‘I HAVE BEEN GIVEN ALL AUTHORITY IN HEAVEN AND ON EARTH. Therefore, go and MAKE DISCIPLES OF ALL THE NATIONS, baptizing them in the Name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Teach these new disciples to obey all the COMMANDS I have given you. And be sure of this: I AM WITH YOU ALWAYS, even to the end of the age.’”
The Christians all over the Earth are “lively” stones on the global Mount Zion (Daniel 2:35), in Christ being built together into a dwelling, a Temple for God and as the Bride of Christ Jesus in New City of eternal Jerusalem (Eph 2:22; 1 Peter 2:5).
Ephesians 2:20b-22 “Christ Jesus Himself being the cornerstone, IN WHOM the whole structure, being joined together, is growing into a holy temple in the Lord. In Him you also are BEING BUILT TOGETHER INTO A DWELLING PLACE for God by the Spirit.” This is another reason why attending church regularly is COMMANDED and is MANDATORY for ALL Christians, when possible, to learn to love each other as Jesus loves us, and learn to stir up our Charisma Gifts, especially in church, so to minister to the needs of each other (1Cor 12:25) while Christ is making us all “ONE” (John 17) in a spiritual structure becoming The Temple of God and the Body of Christ where God dwells for all of eternity.
1Peter 2:5 “You also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.”
The Earth’s nations are to go up spiritually, as they are truly Worshipping in Spirit and Truth in Jesus on the global spiritual Mount Zion of Christ (Daniel 2:35) in their souls and hearts in their own nations world wide and worship Him in “Spirit and in Truth.” If possible, the nations should become Christian nations with national Law. (see Bible Apologetics at ChristianAmendment.com)
If there is to be any Christian nation that protects the children instead of destroying the souls of almost all the children in the government schools and media, Christians must act Now Today to make America a Christian nation by U.S. Law before ALL IS LOST by God and Christ’s Judgment upon the earth of the coming WW3.
In Acts 4:18-20 Disciples are COMMANDED to break Roman law “to Preach and Teach in the Name of Jesus” then at that time. It is commanded, if possible, to advocate and change U.S. Law today, so in the public schools so it is again legal to teach the Gospel in faith and Truth as the only reasonable and wise religion.
The American Christians have cut their own throats figuratively by opposing Christian Law or choosing to do nothing to save the nation’s children from the state religions of Secular Humanism, Civil Government, as Thomas Jefferson defined it as a religion derived from ancient Rome, the anti-science religion of Evolution of life from the simple to the complex life forms, Islam, and indoctrination of other foreign religions with morally corrupting multiculturalism. The Bible FORBIDS teaching and corrupting the children about the sinful practices and ways of pagans as the teachers in the public schools do today.
The Bible warns about importing pagans with their foreign religions that are corrupting the children, as also the ancient nation of Israel was lost after King Solomon corrupted the nation with foreign religions and almost all were lost in one generation!
When Christians love the statement of Christ to the Roman Governor before the Cross, “My Kingdom is not of this earth,” instead of recognizing after the Cross and resurrection, Jesus had indeed received ALL the kingdoms of the entire earth. Christ only had to complete His Father’s will to be the sacrificial “Lamb of God” on the Cross and be resurrected two millennia ago.
In Acts 1:7 the disciples, after years of explanations, knew Christian nations were to be established. They did not know it would take centuries before King Jesus would hand over to Christians on a proverbial “silver platter” the entire Roman Empire. Because the Christians played the harlot and fools under Emperor Constantine and as a result of their harlotries with the world, they reaped the whirlwind of God’s judgment in the Millennium of the dark ages under the reign of the Holy Roman Empire. God would have given a “Millennium” thousand years of His reigns' blessings and His grace, if only the USA’s leaders today chose to faithfully serve King Jesus in the U.S. Government.
Instead Christians sin by opposing Christian U.S. law so to save the children and save Christians around the Earth, the Christians should have chosen LIFE and supported King Jesus and served Him in the U.S. Government and in the public schools as they should of done in the first place.
Only Jesus has seen the Face of the Father (John 1:17) and that is why Heaven and Earth were created PERFECT originally. Now, since sin entered the World through Adam, the physical universe is falling apart and devolving into chaos and disorder.
In the beginning a third of the angels were sinning and were being transformed and punished by being turned into demons. Jesus said the demons were doomed to be eventually imprisoned forever in the Lake of Fire (Matthew 25:45; Revelation 20:10).
As long as Peter kept His EYES on Jesus, then Peter could fulfill the WORD of Jesus and walk on water. Similar to Peter, when Christians keep their spiritual EYES on Jesus (1Cor 13:12) and have ears to listen to the Holy Spirit and OBEY and do what Jesus said through His Holy Spirit and “Dreams and Visions,” then Christians are “PERFECT,” by seeing His Face by a "glass darkly" perfectly expressing at that time the Will of our Heavenly Father in this life as Jesus desires. To be imputed “righteousness” is one consideration, however actually doing the Will of the Father while looking spiritually at the Face of Jesus is what it takes to be “PERFECT.” Similarly angels also express and execute the Will of Our Heavenly Father in real time as true Christians should also do and OBEY Jesus Will, as we earnestly run after His Love and make ourselves willing to be led by His Holy Spirit ALWAYS. Just as Jesus always did what is pleasing to His Heavenly Father. “And the One who sent Me is with Me, He has not deserted Me. For I always do what pleases Him" (John 8:29). Jesus ALWAYS did what pleases His Father as Christians should also so to “be perfect” as our Heavenly Father by perfectly expressing His Will with our will and human spirit as Christians.
Acts 1:14 “These all with one accord [with one mind, with one accord, with one passion] were continually devoting themselves to prayer, along with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with His brothers. Acts 2:1 The first century Church practiced praying in “ONE ACCORD” when gathered together 24/7. The early churched achieved touching spiritually with God and Jesus and received miracles, healings, and blessings in their lives as a result of OBEYING Jesus.
Warning from the Holy Spirit to either learn to pull together in prayer or you may perish being alone. Teaming up with “two or three” Christians daily is important, but learning to pull together as a spiritual eagle flying gaining spiritual altitude is a matter of extreme importance.
Many Christians sometimes like to deceive themselves, over simplifying, twisting the Scriptures to their destruction, quoting in isolation “Salvation is by grace,” which it is entirely true, however it is in the context of the WORD of God which has additional requirements for maintaining our salvation status as Christians mature with the Holy Spirit leading each one. Learning to spiritually “Pull together,” being of “ONE mind” of Christ, “ONE accord,” “ONE Body” of Christ, “supplying each others needs” in the Body of Christ is a command and a matter of life and death for Christians today.
“ONE ACCORD” is transliterated “homothumadon” in the greek manuscripts. A unique Greek word, used 10 of its 12 New Testament occurrences in the Book of Acts, helps us understand the unified harmony of the Christian Church. Homothumadon is a compound of two words meaning to "rush along" and "in unison.” The image is sometimes musical; a number of notes are sounded which, while different, harmonize in pitch and tone. Christians gathered together in Church as the instruments of a great concert under the direction of King Jesus the concert-master, so the Holy Spirit blends together the lives of members of Christ's church. It is also translated “one impulse” and “one mind.” The Holy Spirit’s leading impulses and Christ, achieving the works of God and Jesus, which have been prepared from the foundation of the world, is God’s command and directive for the modern Church.
Just as Apostle Peter supernaturally escaped from jail, being helped and led by God’s Angel, and Paul and Barnabas experienced a miraculous earthquake and their jail chains removed from them, today’s church is also commanded, as the early church also was, to be in ONE Accord, ONE Heart, ONE Soul, ONE Mind of Christ, 24/7 daily in order to help come together in prayer in “ONE Accord” so to better petition God for miracles, healings, signs and wonders to manifest in the Body of Christ. As Apostle Paul said, “Pray for me.” The early church earnestly prayed for one another at prayer meetings, agreeing harmoniously in “ONE accord, and so should today’s church gather together frequently in fervent prayer, praying for ONE another in Jesus Name as many times and as long as it takes! Three or Four Christians gathered together spiritually and vocally “touching and agreeing in prayer in the Name of Jesus” will usually bring better results than praying alone. Spiritual gifts are more easily sustainable when there are more Christians gathered together in the True Church of Jesus, e.g., “Where two or three gathered” and not necessarily a reference for a church building.
Romans 15:6 "So that with 'one' mind and 'one' voice you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ."
In fact, having learned the “hard way” when suffering withering demonic attacks and sometimes fighting off a “spirit(s) of infirmity,” it is incredibly important to ALWAYS find the Face of Jesus (1Cor 13:12), He is faithfully in the warm spiritual spot in the immediate area, even when you are “alone.” Facing Him as our Father through His son and speaking in “tongues” spiritually directing your spiritual face towards His Face in order to spiritually fight the good fight of faith. Jesus really wants our attention as much as reasonably possible, particularly with our spiritual face, turning to follow His Face and presence regardless of where it moves.
Just as Satan the Serpent/Dragon of the Book of Revelation tries to drown the church with demonic “waters,” it remains true sometimes for today’s church.
Praying with committed coworker in Christ, or spouse, is a matter of spiritual life and death. Although some arrogant Christians say they have no coworker, claiming to be “all alone,” yet achieving miracles, note the person(s) receiving the healing miracles are desperate for the presence of Jesus and His healing touch making it “two or three” fulfilling the LAW OF CHRIST’s MINISTRY.
When I am alone, I always listen to Christian music, always “singing and making melody in my heart,” “speaking in tongues,” “Always praying,” stirring up my spiritual gifts, and looking around for that warm place where the angel or presence of Jesus Christ is. There are oftentimes angels we are not aware of in the immediate areas, even when driving a vehicle.
Failing to speak in tongues, when one has the gift of the Holy Spirit, is a sin when facing such horrendous spiritual warfare. Speaking in tongues helps focus one’s spirit, the sword of the Spirit, and learning to submit and conform to the Holy Spirit’s desire. Jesus commanded His Apostles to pray for ten days until Pentecost in Acts 2 before baptizing His disciples with fire and filling each Christian with the gift of the Holy Spirit, evidenced by speaking foreign languages.
As Apostle Paul wrote Timothy, to “stir up the gift into fervent flames" (2Tim 1:6), keeping the spiritual fires burning is key to keeping alive spiritually and to function in the ministry of Jesus. The Scripture has written “He makes His servants a flaming fire” (Matthew 3:11; Luke 3:16; Acts 2:3; Hebrews 1:7). I have seen congregations on spiritual “fire.” And the neighbors, back at the time when the Lord granted a great USA revival in past decades, reported they saw the church’s roof was on “fire” and actually called the town’s fire department! For true revival, true repentance is required.
How to Revive the Church? Teach Christians to First seek the Face of Jesus to live and to speak in tongues (Amos 5:4,14; 1Cor 13:12). The Corinthian Church was pentecostal with the typical sins of the rich usually not befriending and helping the poor as the Holy Spirit leads them as Paul wrote. The church had a problem of spiritually eating at both the table of the Lord and at the table of demons seeking the pleasures of sin. As Jesus said, the children are sensitive and apt to be faithful in their innocence and freedom from sin. Where in contrast the adults often choose to idolize sin, being apathetic, unwilling, or opposing having a Christian nation. Deciding to not serve Jesus in public schools is sin. The public schools and most media are destroying the souls and minds of the children, turning them from believing in Jesus.
How to have a national revival? Seek First the Face of Jesus and Live and be Revived! As Christians seek the Face of Jesus (1Cor 13:12) the Voice of Jesus, the Good Shepherd, will become clearer and clearer and the will and leading of the Holy Spirit in each one’s life will become more obvious and the choice to obey or to sin will be evident. Then the Kingdom of God will be established in the lives of Christians and expressed in culture and in government with greater success!
Philippians 2:2 “COMPLETE MY JOY by being of the SAME MIND, having the SAME LOVE, being in full ACCORD and of ONE MIND.” Jesus gives true Joy when Christians are in “ONE ACCORD.” The word for “FULL ACCORD” is “sympsychos.” Sympsychos is made up of two words syn (together with) and psychos (soul, self, inner life, or the seat of the feelings, desires, affections). So the word for “one accord” or “full accord” or other Scripture word translations for the greek word “sympsychos,” refers to being ‘UNITED IN SPIRIT’ or harmonious. Paul desired the Philippians to be united in their affections, ONE in Christ and ONE in all desires of Jesus Christ!
The Church being gathered together and moving in the Spirit in “ONE ACCORD” is what Jesus desires of true Christians. TRUE CHRISTIANS DO NOT have division over minor issues, it is learning to spiritually harmonize with the Holy Spirit and with Jesus seated in you with His authority. Please note the schism, Paul and Barnabas resulting in fewer people being healed as a consequence. Before their sinful arguing, “all were healed,” after their split up, then only some were healed.
What we see is humble men and women coming together in one place and uniting with one passion, one goal, and one mind to serve Jesus. That’s what being in one accord means. It means setting aside their differences and wholly following the Holy Spirit and Jesus altogether, edifying one another and moving in harmony in the Spirit worshipping God and Jesus “in Spirit and Truth.”
Jesus is inside of every Christian who has invited Him and the Holy Spirit into themselves, letting Jesus be their Master. The Judgment Seat of Christ is in part in Christians as Christ Jesus is seated at the “right Hand” of His Father in Christians and in Heaven. The purpose of the Bema Seat of Christ is an exhaustive evaluation of our lives resulting in His Judgment. First Corinthians 4:5 says the Lord will come and “bring to light the hidden things of darkness and reveal the counsels of the hearts. Then each one's praise will come from God.” As Christians ask Jesus to “Come” with His Presence in their “hearts” Jesus helps each Christian to judge themselves as each one is willing.
Jesus helps us to worship and partake of His Wedding Feast at the “Table of the Lord.” In Heaven the wedding of the Bride of Christ will be spiritually consummated for all those who let Christ rule in their spirits. It is also required to “OVERCOME the evil one” in order to “rule and reign with Christ” right now today, in this life (Rev 2:26; 3:1). After Christ comes on the “Last Day” for the resurrection of His people and on the “Last Day” for the second resurrection of the damned who will live in shame and disgrace for all of eternity, then it will be too late as King Jesus gives EVERYTHING then to His Father and there will be no people left on earth to rule (1Cor 15:28). Christians will have forfeited their opportunity to have a Christian nation and rule and reign with Christ today as they ought to have done…
To “Rule and Reign with Christ” is to also move in spiritual harmony with Christ Jesus leading us on His Bema Seat or spiritual chair in each Christian that is “The Temple of God.”
“By Faith” putting aside doctrinal differences and opinions on all other issues (Romans 14:1-15:13) and by His Faith worshipping in true accord as “One as Jesus and His Father are One.” Jesus is the totality of “The Way, The TRUTH, and the Life.” The Spirit of TRUTH of Jesus is far more infinite than the written Holy Scriptures. TRUTH is the very being of the WORD, Jesus and GOD ALMIGHTY.
Though Abraham did not see New Jerusalem, by FAITH Abraham kept spiritually looking for something he never saw in his lifetime on earth. By Faith, Christians today can put aside their doctrinal differences to a large degree, spiritually seeing The Face of Jesus and BY FAITH “Worship God in Spirit and TRUTH.” Doctrinal Truth affects the Holy Spirit’s anointing to a large degree as the Holy Spirit’s anointing works to lead us to all TRUTH. As Christians successfully spiritually see the Face of Jesus, believing "all things," and the congregation is perfect in Christ as Jesus Commanded His disciples, those hindering spirits will lift off and the congregation will generally feeling spiritually relieved and able to love one another and walk together in the presence of Jesus and the Holy Spirit.
1John 2:27 “But you have received the Holy Spirit, and He lives within you, so you don’t need anyone to teach you what is TRUE. For the Spirit teaches you EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW, and what He teaches is TRUE, it is not a lie. So just as He has TAUGHT you, to remain in fellowship with Christ.” Jesus and the Holy Spirit has TAUGHT YOU personally if you will pay attention to the changing spiritual anointing of the Holy Spirit, as various matters and doctrines are preached by Christians. Despite the best efforts of some to keep the people in the Dark Ages ignorant of important Scriptures, the HOLY SPIRIT’S ANOINTING TAUGHT THEM WHAT THEY NEEDED TO KNOW. " In Essentials Unity, In Non-Essentials Liberty, In All Things Charity .... you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ."
1John 2:27 “As for you, the anointing which you received from Him abides in you, and you have no need for anyone to teach you; but as His anointing teaches you about all things, and is true and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, you abide in Him.” Remaining in fellowship with the presence of Jesus, seeing His Face and in fellowship of the Holy Spirit, enough to be led by His Spirit is of KEY importance for salvation, deliverance and healings. By changing His anointing, Jesus makes it plain when churches have false doctrine such as the "future Millennium" and the heresy of a future Tribulation supposedly written of in the Book of Revelation. Jesus is already reigning and just as His great Wrath was poured out as punishment for those who would not let Him reign as their King circa 70 A.D. so His great Wrath in the form the radioactive ashes as His punishment in the post WW3 age to come. There will be no future Millennium if the survivors do not want King Jesus to reign over them. Christians need to fight today to have a Christian USA by Law or all is lost. Just as the government schools are working to eradicate Christianity, the government schools must work to save the children with the Gospel in order to avoid the coming total desolation of the USA.
Today Churches must be as Holy Spirit “Symphonies” with all Christians spiritually harmonizing, singing in the Spirit as they are led together in worship with the eternal choir of the Body of Christ, all together in the worship of Jesus their Creator. This is why if there is no anointing by the Holy Spirit, or bad anointing, and bad spirits associated with the so called “Christian Music” present, then it is sin. Worship Music must be edifying and have the Holy Spirit’s anointing to be acceptable to God.
John 17:11b-12a “I come to Thee Holy Father, keep them in Thy Name [Jesus], the Name [Jesus] which Thou hast given Me, that they may be One, even as We are [One]. “While I was with them, I was keeping them in THY NAME [Jesus] WHICH THOU HAST GIVEN ME; and I guarded them, and not one of them perished.” Christians need to be in “One Accord” keeping themselves in the Name of Jesus to please God our Father. Jesus identifies His Father gave Him the SAME NAME of JESUS. Therefore Heavenly Father’s Name is Jesus, the ONLY NAME GIVEN that men may call upon so to be saved! Jesus Christ said His Father had given Him His SAME NAME. Until the next life in eternity when God and Jesus giving us His new Name, “Do All in the Name of Jesus” (Col 3:17).
John 17:6 “I MANIFESTED Thy NAME [Jesus] to the men whom Thou gave Me out of the world; Thine they were, and Thou gave them to Me, and they have kept Thy WORD.” Christians are commanded to MANIFEST the Name of Jesus to Christians as Jesus Christ and Apostle Paul commanded (Col 3:17).
Jesus said His Father would desert Him and leave Him alone, if He had failed to do the Will of His Father. Jesus was seeing Him in visions (John 5:19) and being told what do by visions (John 5:19), so Christ, as prophets also should do, would speak the oracles of God His Father instead of the words of a mere soulical man (John 8:29).
Jesus said, “I will never leave nor forsake you!” Which is conditional upon our will to decide to be saved and have His presence daily and enduring to the end to obtain eternal salvation. It is based upon the Will of His Father which includes, seeking His Face and remaining in the presence of Jesus, seeing His Face as commanded in the Bible’s Love Chapter (1Cor 13:12).
As Jesus taught in some parables, the timely obedience of disciples is unfortunately sometimes delayed, however some eventually obey and do God’s Will on earth. This is why the USA is on its way to destruction as Jesus said in Matthew 7:13-14, “For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction” instead of having the gracious blessings of being a Christian nation and working to establish God’s Kingdom on this Earth.
The name America actually means “Kingdom of Heaven.” American Christians should have obeyed God and Jesus and worked to have a Christian nation by U.S. Law and expressed the kingdom of God on earth in us and through us in our bodies, work, mind and by our actions in this life as Jesus Himself would do.
Jesus said, “See that you don't look down on one of these little ones [children] because I tell you that in Heaven their angels continually view the Face of My Father in Heaven.” Christians’ angels are actually viewing the Face of Our Heavenly Father and Jesus as Christians are also commanded to learn to do this spiritually to save their souls. This is of great importance if Christians are willing to Obey God and Jesus and are to be “Perfect as Our Heavenly Father is perfect.”
Seeing the spiritual Face of Jesus today will guarantee one's salvation as one transitions between our physical bodies at death to be in the presence of Jesus forever seeing His Face and the Face of His Father (2Corinthians 5:8).
The implications having most Christians learning to be led by the Holy Spirit and OBEYING God and Jesus are truly of great importance, for example, if they had obeyed then America would have been a Christian nation now by U.S. Law instead of being on the broad path destined for destruction.
It took the existing nation of Uganda a learned lesson of terrible brutal Islamic genocide of having millions of Christians martyred, murdered by the Muslims before they woke up to have a Christian nation by law.
Mark 11:22 “And Jesus answered saying to them, “Have faith in God.” You are the “Temple of God” and as Jesus was the “Temple” by having His Father in Him. Put your faith in God and Jesus in by putting your spiritual gift of faith in God each other in the Body of Christ which is “THE TEMPLE OF GOD,” bonding in His “love without hypocrisy” and you will receive more of God’s answers to prayer through Jesus Christ in you.
Philippians 2:12b “Work out your salvation with fear and trembling.”
Hebrews 4:9-11 “So there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God. For the one who has entered His rest has himself also rested from his works, as God did from His. Therefore let us be diligent and LABOR to enter that rest, so that no one will fall, through following the same example of disobedience.” It is hard spiritual work, believing on Jesus Christ whom the Father has sent into us and into our midst, and laboring to entering into the presence of Jesus and seeing His Face! However, Jesus and His Father completed His works from the foundation of the world and continues His work as necessary today with Christians that believe Him enough to seek His Face continually as Jesus always did what He saw His Father doing in visions (John 5:19).
In John 17 Jesus prayed that true Christians would have the same relation through Him with our Heavenly Father, as He has. King Jesus wants Christians working to establish His Kingdom on Earth and passing laws to grow the end time harvest, instead of wishful heresies that will only result in the loss of most children and the coming doom of the nation.
God will NOT accept any excuses for failure or unwillingness! Everything God commands is possible and provided for. “The Mind of Christ,” “Righteousness,” or “Seeing The Face of Jesus” is real Christian behavior requirements, and enabled by real choices of our Free Will to decide to submit and comply to His WORD and God will “Make it Happen!” Everything God COMMANDS us to do, He also generously EMPOWERS Christians to do with His Holy Spirit and God also Gives enough gifted abilities with His Charisma Gifts to each Christian in order to perform His WORD. However, it is our Christian duty to desire God and “Seek the Greater Spiritual Gifts” with all of our heart in our spiritual life.
1Cor 12:31 “But earnestly desire the greater [spiritual] gifts. And I show you a still more excellent way.”
1Cor 14:1 “Follow The Way of Love and eagerly desire [spiritual] gifts of the Spirit, especially prophecy!
It is NOT always “easy” with God’s empowerment to do His Will, to seek His Face and to listen to Him, and it is more spiritual work to do what He says to do, sometimes our attitude needs correction. God makes it hard sometimes to do His Will, for the reason our example is God our Father also works very hard to sustain the universe fabric of space/time/energy/time and life itself in Heaven and on Earth.
Consider the example of Jesus Christ sweating “drops of blood” in making His decision to OBEY His Father ALL the Way to His last breath of life and death of Christ’s earthly body. It was a great deal of spiritual work to OBEY His Father and we are expected to work just as hard spiritually, at least for some Christians, who God requires all of our being, strength, and mind.
Submitting to the Holy Spirit and NOT yielding to sensual spirits/devils that sometimes powerfully tempt Christians with feelings of lust, to sin is a great effort for some Christians. First call upon the LORD JESUS to be saved from sin, and call for two or three others to agree in prayer to agree for the presence of the Holy Spirit instead of lustful tempting spirits. If necessary call someone on the telephone for prayer to agree for deliverance. Note, if one has the same type of sin in their lives, you will usually drag down each other and go on sinning. It is necessary to agree in prayer with someone who does not have the same type of sin in their lives.
John 4:34 “Jesus said to them, ‘My food is to DO THE WILL of Him who sent Me, and to accomplish His WORK.’”
John 6:27 “Do not WORK for the food which perishes, but for the food which ENDURES to eternal life, which the Son of Man shall give to you, for on Him the Father, even God, has set His seal.”
John 6:28 “They said therefore to Him, ‘What shall we do, that we may WORK the WORKS of God?’”
John 6:29 “Jesus answered and said to them, ‘This is the WORK of God, that you BELIEVE in Him whom He has sent.’”
Jesus makes spiritual gifts of men, “For the equipping of the saints for the WORK of SERVICE, to the BUILDING UP of the Body of Christ." Unity in the Body of Christ is the goal!
… "To equip the saints for works of ministry, to build up the body of Christ" Eph 4:12.
Ephesians 4 Ephesians 4 BLB
Unity in the Body
(Psalm 133:1-3; 1 Corinthians 1:10-17)
"1Therefore I, the prisoner in the Lord, exhort you to walk worthily of the calling to which you were called, 2with all humility and gentleness; with patience bearing with one another in love; 3being diligent to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace; 4one body and one Spirit, just as also you were called into one hope of your calling; 5one Lord, one faith, one baptism; 6one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all."
"7Now to each one of us grace has been given according to the measure of the gift of Christ. 8Therefore it says:"
“Having ascended on high,
He led captive captivity,
and gave gifts to men.”
"9Now what is “He ascended,” except that He also descended into the lower regions of the earth? 10The One having descended is also the same one having ascended above all the heavens, so that He might fill all things."
"11And He gave some indeed to be apostles, and some prophets, and some evangelists, and some shepherds and teachers, 12toward the perfecting of the saints for the work of ministry, for the building up of the Body of Christ, 13until we all may attain to theU of the Faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a complete man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ, 14so that no longer we might be infants, being tossed by waves and being carried about by every wind of teaching [heresies] in the cunning, in the craftiness of men with a view to the scheming of deceit. 15But speaking the Truth in Love, we should grow up in all things into Him who is the Head, Christ, 16from whom the whole Body, being joined together and being held together by every ligament of its supply, according to the working in the measure of each individual part, the increase of the body makes for itself, to the building up of itself in love."
A New Life in Christ is promised.
"17This therefore I say and testify in the Lord: You are no longer to walk as also the Gentiles are walking, in the futility of their mind, 18being darkened in the understanding, being alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance being in them on account of the hardness of their heart, 19who, having cast off all feeling, have given themselves up to sensuality for the working of all impurity, with greediness for more."
"20But you have not learned Christ this way, 21if indeed you have heard Him and have been taught in Him just as the truth is in Jesus. 22You are to have put off, concerning the former way of life, the old man, which is being corrupted according to its desires of deceit, 23and to be Renewed in the spirit of your mind, 24and to have put On the new man, having been created according to God in righteousness and holiness of Truth."
"25Therefore having put off falsehood, let each one speak truth with his neighbor, because we are members of one another. 26“Be angry, and yet do not sin.” Let not the sun set upon your anger, 27neither give opportunity to the devil."
"28The one stealing, let him steal no longer, but rather let him toil, working with the own hands what is good, so that he may have something to impart to the one having need."
"29Do not let any unwholesome word go forth out of your mouth, but ONLY good, for edification of the need, so that it may give grace to those hearing."
"30And do Not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, in whom you were sealed by the Holy Spirit (Eph 1:13) for the day of redemption."
"31Let all bitterness, and rage, and anger, and clamor, and slander, be removed from you, along with all malice. 32And be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving each other, as also in Christ God forgave you."
Philippians 1:6 “For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus."
Php 2:12-13 “So then, my beloved, just as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your salvation with fear and trembling; for it is God who is at WORK in you, both to will and to WORK for His good pleasure.”
Work is defined as Believing in Jesus Christ, and “The Work” of Evangelism and the teaching the doctrines of God and Jesus Christ.
Sometimes it is a great deal of spiritual work to seek the greater charisma gifts and work to spiritually exercise them.
1Corinthians 12:30-31 “Do all have gifts of healing? Do all speak in tongues? Do all interpret? But eagerly desire THE GREATER GIFTS. And now I will show you a way that is beyond comparison.” Speaking in unknown languages is defined by God and Paul as one of a the "GREATER GIFTS."
2 Chronicles 26:4-5 "He did right in the sight of the LORD according to all that his father Amaziah had done. He continued to SEEK God in the days of Zechariah, who had the understanding through the VISION of God; and AS LONG AS HE SOUGHT THE LORD GOD PROSPERED HIM." It remains God's Will to SEE His Face daily in our lives 1Cor 13:12 and as long as we also obey Him we will PROSPER. Matthew 6:33 “SEEK FIRST His kingdom and His righteousness, and ALL these THINGS will be GIVEN to you as well." As long as Christians keep seeking the Face of Jesus they will prosper.
In the Book of Judges, when God's people cried out to be saved, repenting of their sins, Seeking His Face as commanded in 2Chronicles 7:14, then God will also raise up Judges such as the Prophet Samuel to save and rule them. However today's Christians foolishly fail to ask God and Jesus for grace to save them, they often fail to support God’s Prophets Judges deliverers who God raises up and sends, and then they fail to work to make their nation Christian with Christian Law. Christians’ failures to “seek first the Kingdom of God,” results in God and Christ’s coming catastrophic judgment. "Jesus is Always the Same" and is willing to raise up deliverers, prophets, judges today or later if the people will cry out to God and Jesus to save them and America. God loves mercy! WWJD? Jesus would advise Christians to daily seek His Face as commanded in 1Cor 13:12, 2Chronicles 7:14 and He also commands us to do His Will today and forever.
Be like Jesus, and do what He does! "The one who sent Me is with Me; He has not left Me alone, for I always do what pleases Him" John 8:29. You want the PRESENCE of God in your life, mind, soul and body (First Law of God), then "Do what Pleases Him!"
As Moses prophesied, all those who are willing to prevail with God in His Way, the meaning of the Name of Israel, must LISTEN to The Prophet and Apostle Jesus or they will perish (Deuteronomy 18:15).
"Jesus is the same, yesterday, today and yes forever!" God does NOT change from the O.T. to the N.T. although the New Covenant is much better than the Old Covenant.
Psalm 27:7-9 “Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice, And be gracious to me and answer me. When You said, “SEEK MY FACE," MY HEART SAID TO YOU, "Your Face, O LORD, I shall seek." Do not hide Your Face from me, Do not turn Your servant away in anger; You have been my help; Do not abandon me nor forsake me, O God of my salvation!” Seeking the Face of God was the same in the Old Covenant as it is in the New Covenant part of the Biblical requirements for having eternal life...
Psalm 27:7-9 “Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice, And be gracious to me and answer me. When You said, “SEEK MY FACE," MY HEART SAID TO YOU, "Your Face, O LORD, I shall seek." Do not hide Your Face from me, Do not turn Your servant away in anger; You have been my help; Do not abandon me nor forsake me, O God of my salvation!”
2Chronicles 7:14 "If My people, who are called by My Name, will humble themselves and pray and SEEK MY FACE and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land."
Seeing the FACE OF JESUS is required for mature Christians so to inherit eternal life as written in the Scriptures. Amen

Jer 40:3 “Now the LORD has brought it, and has done just as He said. Because you people have sinned against the LORD, and not obeyed His VOICE, therefore this thing has come upon you.”

Jer 44:23 “Because you have burned incense and because you have sinned against the LORD, and have not obeyed the VOICE of the LORD or walked in His Law, in His Statutes or in His Testimonies, therefore this calamity has happened to you, as at this day.”
Da 4:31 “While the word was still in the king’s mouth, a VOICE fell from heaven: “King Nebuchadnezzar, to you it is spoken: the kingdom has departed from you!”
Da 9:11 “Yes, all Israel has transgressed Your law, and has departed so as not to obey Your VOICE; therefore the curse and the oath written in the Law of Moses the servant of God have been poured out on us, because we have sinned against Him.”
Da 10:6 “His body was like beryl, his face like the appearance of lightning, his eyes like torches of fire, his arms and feet like burnished bronze in color, and the sound of his words like the VOICE of a multitude.”
Joel 2:11 “The LORD gives VOICE before His army, For His camp is very great; For strong is the One who executes His word. For the day of the LORD is great and very terrible; Who can endure it?
Joel 3:16 “The LORD also will roar from Zion, And utter His VOICE from Jerusalem; The heavens and earth will shake; But the LORD will be a shelter for His people, And the strength of the children of Israel.”
Zec 6:15 “Even those from afar shall come and build the temple of the LORD. Then you shall know that the LORD of hosts has sent Me to you. And this shall come to pass if you diligently obey the VOICE of the LORD your God.”
Mt 3:17 “And suddenly a VOICE came from heaven, saying, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”
Mt 17:5 “While he was still speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them; and suddenly a VOICE came out of the cloud, saying, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Hear Him!”

John 10:27 “My sheep hear My VOICE, and I know them, and they follow Me.” True Christians follow the leading of the Holy Spirit and hear and do what Jesus and His Holy Spirit says to for us to do.
John 10:27-28 “My sheep listen to My voice; I know them, and they follow Me. I give them eternal life, and they will never perish. No one can snatch them out of My hand.” Jesus is the Good Shepherd and for a life giving RELATIONSHIP with Jesus, Christians must follow the leading of the Holy Spirit, no matter how difficult it may be at times. Jesus said, “wolves will attack” and unbelievers will flee, but true believers will hold on to Jesus forever.
John 12:28 “Father, glorify Your NAME.” Then a VOICE came from heaven, saying, “I have both glorified it and will glorify it again.”
John 12:30 “Jesus answered and said, ‘This VOICE did not come because of Me, but for your sake.’” The Voice of Jesus is rarely audible physically, but as Jesus said, “He who has Ears to Hear what the Spirit is saying will hear a spiritual voice. Whether inside you, as “you are the Temple of God” and Jesus or externally through angels. However please be warned this is how demons speak externally and many are deceived so to “pay attention” and follow after demons, “seducing spirits.”
“God is Light” in the Old Testament and His Light led believers in their lives. King David as a prophet wrote in Psalms 119:104-106 “From Your precepts I get understanding; Therefore I hate every false way. Your Word is a Lamp to my feet And a Light to my path. I have sworn and I will confirm it, That I will keep Your righteous ordinances.” From the beginning of history until today, “Jesus is always the same!” The light of God, as Jesus on the Mount of Transfiguration revealing God’s Light, will always show the Way for those with spiritual “eyes to see and ears to hear what the Spirit has to say” (Rev 3:22 paraphrased).
John 18:37 “Pilate therefore said to Him, “Are You a king then?” Jesus answered, “You say rightly that I am a king. For this cause I was born, and for this cause I have come into the world, that I should bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is of the Truth hears My VOICE.”” Everyone who wishes to have a spiritual RELATIONSHIP with God and Jesus must be “born-again,” born-from-above in the greek manuscripts. Instead of sin conceiving when Christians eat at the table of demons and fulfill their lusts and pay attention to “seducing spirits” Christians must die to selfish desires and follow after the purity of the Holy Spirit and be led by The Good Shepherd Jesus Christ.
Acts 7:31 “When Moses saw it, he marveled at the sight; and as he drew near to observe, the VOICE of the Lord came to him.”
Acts 22:7 “And I fell to the ground and heard a VOICE saying to me, ‘Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me?’”
Acts 22:14 “Then he said, ‘The God of our fathers has chosen you that you should know His will, and see the Just One, and hear the VOICE of His mouth.’”
Acts 26:14 “And when we all had fallen to the ground, I heard a VOICE speaking to me and saying in the Hebrew language, ‘Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me? Is it hard for you to kick against the goads?’”
1Th 4:16 “For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the VOICE of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first.”
Heb 3:7-8 “Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says: “Today if you hear His VOICE, do not harden your hearts, as you did in the rebellion, in the time of testing in the wilderness.”
Heb 3:15 “Today, if you will hear His VOICE, Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.”
New International Version
"Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, 'This is the way; walk in it.'"
New Living Translation
Isaiah 30:21 "'Your own ears will hear him. Right behind you a VOICE will say, 'This is the way you should go,' whether to the right or to the left.'"
English Standard Version
Isaiah 30:21 "And your ears shall hear a WORD behind you, saying, 'This is the WAY, walk in it,' when you turn to the right or when you turn to the left."
2Pe 1:17 “For He received from God the Father honor and glory when such a VOICE came to Him from the Excellent Glory: 'This is My beloved Son, in whom I Am well pleased.'”
Re 1:10 “I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s Day, and I heard behind me a loud VOICE, as of a trumpet.”
Re 1:15 “His feet were like fine brass, as if refined in a furnace, and His VOICE as the sound of many waters.”
Re 3:20 “Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My VOICE and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me.”
Re 8:13 “And I looked, and I heard an angel flying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud VOICE, ‘Woe, woe, woe to the inhabitants of the earth, because of the remaining blasts of the trumpet of the three angels who are about to sound!’”
Re 18:4 “And I heard another VOICE from heaven saying, ‘Come out of her, My people, lest you share in her sins, and lest you receive of her plagues.’”
Re 21:3 “And I heard a loud VOICE from heaven saying, “Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. God Himself will be with them and be their God.”
Christians are commanded to TAKE THE PRESENCE OF JESUS with you by Praising Him and making melodies in your heart and you will "see His Face" (1Cor 13:12).
Re 22:4 "They will see His face, and His Name will be on their foreheads." If we see His Face, His Name is one our foreheads today and forever. Amen
Grace, Mercy, and Love Always to you all in Jesus Christ. Amen
Foundational Doctrine on how to seek and see the Face of God and hear Jesus and The Holy Spirit more clearly and perhaps more frequently as we are found faithful to hear and do His WORD.

Please Note: Capital Letters are used in this document, similarly as the Rotherham Bible Hebrew translation, giving the English reader a dynamic emphasis so to help enhance the explanation and give the reader a more enhanced comprehension of the precise meaning of what is being written in the sentence. SAE Standard American English has been corrupted by multiculturalism and secularism, so as to not CAPITALIZE pronoun references to DEITY as was done for the KJV Bible. Christians should be more reverent of God when addressing Deity and set a more godly writing standard to implement reverence of Deity so and also to help comprehension and reader understanding using CAPITAL LETTERS where helpful so the reader will understand the importance and syntax of what is written. All Bible version publishers should, at the minimum, capitalize pronouns as the published NASB and KJV Bible versions have done.

Incredibly important to sing the Scriptures, because "the LORD said, “That’s right, and it means that I am watching, and I will certainly carry out all My plans.” When there are believers are singing His Words and praying God to keep His prophecies and His Will, God honors His Word and does exactly what He has planned to do (Jeremiah 1:12).

FYI: A very enlightening video biblical study on how to hear God's voice.
It is a great tragedy in this late hour for America that Derek Prince's only book, that I know of was published on how to hear the Voice of Jesus is written in the Russian language. His work and scholarship on hearing the Voice of God is the very best I know of, and it is a matter of life and death for all American Christians to learn to listen to the Voice of Jesus!
