COMING UP HIGHER

[FAITH]

Ephesians 2:5,6  -  "Even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus."

 

      We are not to see things from an earthly vantage point but from a Heavenly perspective.  It is there that we are seated in the Heavenly places above all demonic forces.  As, we move into deeper realms of intimacy with God, we receive greater revelation and understanding of His purpose for our life, and we have the anointing to establish and plant His Kingdom in the earth.

 

Psalm 18:33  -  "He makes my feet like the feet of deer, and sets me on my high places."

 

       The Lord is calling us up higher to give us the Kingdom elevating assignment He is giving us.

       When God begins to manifest His glory, we need to make sure that we don't try to pitch tents and build debasing structures.  Jesus was transfigured before the eyes of Peter, James and John.  Peter suggested tents be built, but this was not the heart of God.

       When man sees the glory, there is the fleshly reaction to capitalize on what God is doing--building earthly structures, etc.

 

NEW WINESKIN THINKING 

 

Mark 2:22  - "And no one puts new wine into old wineskins; or else the new wine bursts the wineskins, the wine is spilled, and the wineskins are ruined.  But new wine must be put into new wineskins."

 

      If we are to partake in what God is pouring out in this hour, we must have a new mindset--a new wineskin ie. we don't lean on our own understanding.  Leaning on natural thinking and old ways are like crusty and stiff wineskins.  These mindsets cannot carry the new wine of God's glory that is being poured out.  WE SHOULD HOLD TRUE TO THE WORD, BUT REMAIN FLEXIBLE IN REGARDS TO HOW THINGS SHOULD LOOK IN REGARDS TO THE MOVING OF GOD'S SPIRIT.

 

1 Corinthians 2:11  -  "For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him?  Even so, no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God."

     

      As believers, we need to set our natural thinking aside and ask the Lord to help us see with the eyes of His Spirit. We need to see past distraction, discouragement, and adversity. The natural man cannot understand the ways of the Spirit.  But our spirit within us is created to see and understand His ways.  We commit ourselves to see with the eyes of our hearts and allow God to blow our minds with His limitless power!

 

                        Affirmations:

 

NOW IS THE TIME FOR ME TO MOVE INTO GLORY REALM WORSHIP.

 

I APPREHEND THAT TANGIBLE GLORY OF GOD IN MY LIFE AND SETTLE FOR NOTHING LESS!

 

MY MISSION IS TO BEAR FRUIT THAT REMAINS FOR HIS KINGDOM THROUGH CHANGING THE WAY PEOPLE THINK.

 

I AM DRAWN TO HIS HEART BY THE TRUE RICHES OF HIS PRESENCE.

 

I MOVE FROM GORY TO GLORY IN MY CHRIST CALLING AS I GAIN GROUND FOR HIS KINGDOM.
