Staying in touch, the invited bride, both Jew, Gentile and all guests!

It is this ever growing community of people that are connecting “not as the institutional churches necessarily” although that is possible, that awakening needs to happen as well. But it is the essence of “us (individually and as the in community, seekers of God church)” that is growing in the knowledge of the works of God through the prophetic instruction in these last days. Whereby the bride is beginning to form: in one hope, one calling, one faith, one love: being built up by the Spirit into this vast “unity from God” uniting both Jew with Gentile “as one”. And this substance into one faith, one hope, one love, individual workmanship from God, gifted, appointed, called and anointed to meet every need and see every person, none without a loving invitation because we see their value as God sees their value! It is this community that sees the mission of the churched people of God to go into the fields of God that are white (ripe, prepared) to harvest. Now prepared to minister to a lost and dying world, “His love” through whatever need is made obvious to us by His Spirit. Prayed up, Scriptures filling up our hearts in meditating, being observant and obedient, asking to be vessels used in the situation at hand. Asking for hearts to see others, discernment to hear them in their plights, failures, addictions and brokenness, we can bring them to their Maker, who can make all things new becoming a child of God through His salvation in Yeshua (Jesus’) name. Therefore, there is no salvation through any other name in heaven or on earth.

To bring some Scriptural advantage to this concept of both great adventure and the potential agitation of polarized views that occur in any religious circle we tend to need an outside influencer. Ironically, more like prophetically the LORD has given us some insight into this move of God originating from His men, called from the womb from the twelve tribes of Israel. This work of God: one hundred forty four thousands men, all virgins, all males specifically twelve thousand from each of the twelve tribes given by the names of these tribes. The oracles of God will be fully devoted to the service of God, with all of their hearts focused on bringing the salvation of God to every highway and byway, that none can miss knowing about this opportunity. Revelation 7:2-8 gives us this miraculous work of God as a pointed revue of His capacity to show us the difference between “religious pursuits” compared to being the obedient workmanship of God. This fully devoted to the calling and purposes He is leading them, His Revelation disciples to do this mighty work. Consider this work of God compared to the original 12 disciples with Yeshua but now 12 times 12,000 for this grand total of One Hundred Forty Four Thousand. This greater shift needs to be understood that God is bringing proof that our actual pursuit of taking the gospel to the world has been abysmal if we are simply trying to be kind. Have we done some? Certainly, but this work of God will show us what God can do with a man that is fully devoted to Him! Now consider 144,000 of them doing this exact same work because He has called them from the womb purposed for such a time as this! It will be nothing less than the miraculous that can only be accomplished by a work of God outside the norm of what we feel or think we have established as our religious context.

It has been this subjection to worldly institutions and religious authorities that has cluttered the ancient paths with modern polarized views that separate instead of bringing unity through His love. Furthermore this polarization has set religious pathways filled with manmade castings of bronze bringing incorrect judgments. To further problem solve our current status as well we must see the “incorrect, non-justified (christian pretense of) unrighteous warring” for one purpose being “projected political prowess” which are castings of iron. Psalms 107:16 says: For He has shattered gates of bronze And cut bars of iron asunder. (NASB) It is within this informational duet which allows our very understanding from God that should make us repent from our religious exercises! We need again to come, humbly before His throne: desiring to either once again become or now to finally access the kingdom of God as His true disciples functioning from repentence, tender to the Spirit of God, with spiritually hearing ears. Indeed to be His workmanship refined in the fire seven times: now called and purposed to bring forth His Kingdom come, His will be done, readied for the smith. Mark 9:49-50 give us some insight into drawing near to our Father God who is an all-consuming fire saying, (49) “For everyone will be salted with fire. (50.) Salt is good; but if the salt becomes unsalty, with what will you make it salty again? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace with one another.” (NASB) This insight of being salted with fire is the trying of our faith and our capacity to function under that trying circumstance. Now listen to James 1:2-4 which gives us the intention of how we are to look at these trying times knowing that God is desiring to do His work in us saying: (2) Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials, (3) knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. (4) And let endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing. (NASB)

Yes establishing these processes of being tested in the fire: why we are tried, what this work of God should and could mean to us? In knowing these progressing processes of our refining by God for our good: brings understanding to this working of God: minimizes, mitigates some of these conflicts which if unknown bring confusion though our ignorance. This working of God through drawing near to Him as the refiners fire: brings a holiness, a reverence, a repentance, a contemplative wisdom of these intimate connections that God Himself is indeed desirous of making with us, as His people. James 1:5-12 now gives us prayerful opportunity of incorporation of this newly founded insight of relationship saying: (5) But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all generously and without reproach, and it will be given him. (6) But he must ask in faith without any doubting, for the one who doubts is like the surf of the sea, driven and tossed by the wind. (7) For that man ought not to expect that he will receive anything from the Lord, (8) being a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways. (9) But the brother of humble circumstances is to glory in his high position; (10) and the rich man to glory in his humiliation, because like flowering grass he will pass away. (11) For the sun rises with a scorching wind and withers the grass; and its flower falls off and the beauty of its appearance is destroyed; so too the rich man in the midst of his pursuits will fade away. (12) Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial; for once he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him. (NASB)

Lastly in this self limiting insight of choice verses a pursuit God sees alone with His perfect inscrutable judgment James 1:13-27 now has the potential of the prophetic work of God not hidden from our eyes but given to us to know and understand this work and workings of God. Therefore James 1:13-27 now says, (13) Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am being tempted by God”, for God cannot be tempted by evil, and He Himself does not tempt anyone. (14) But each one is tempted when he is carried away and enticed by his own lust. (15) Then when lust has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and when sin is accomplished, it brings forth death. (16) Do not be deceived, my beloved brethren. (17) Every good thing given and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is is no variation or shifting shadow. (18) In the exercise of His will He brought us forth but the word of truth, so that we would be a kind of first fruits among His creatures. (19) This you know, my beloved brethren. But everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger; (20) for the anger of man does not achieve the righteousness of God. (21) Therefore, putting aside all filthiness and all that remains of wickedness, in humility receive the word implanted, which is able to save your souls. (22) But prove yourselves doers of the word, and not merely hearers who delude themselves. (23) For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he has immediately forgotten what kind of person he was. (25) But one who looks intently at the perfect law, the law of liberty and abides by it, not having become a forgetful hearer but an effectual doer, this man will be blessed in what he does. (26) If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man’s religion is worthless. (27) Pure and undefiled religion in the sight of our God and Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself unstained by the world. (NASB)
