In Pursuit of His Presence
Matthew 6:33 KJV But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you.
Seeking God is spiritual. It is spirit to spirit. We cannot find God with a mental or soulish approach. Many do not know Him because they seek to know Him in their mind. They do not see His holiness nor fully grasp that He does not think as we do. God is faith and never succumbs to fear. He never changes His judgments. Whatever He has decided is wrong remains wrong. He will break the yoke of anything in our lives that is against Him. Anything that people have begun to worship before Him will be torn down. He is a jealous God. Many choose tradition over God and make the tradition to be god. Many choose people over God. Many choose money over God. Many make themselves their own god.
They that worship Him must worship Him in spirit and in truth. You have to be hungry or thirsty in order to seek. Jesus is the bread of life so we must take time to eat. We search to fulfill our natural urges of hunger and allow our spirit to perish. We, as a people, allow our spirits to linger in hunger or will suppress the hunger with worldly counterfeits. Jesus is the well of living water that we shall drink. He came that we might have life and have it more abundantly.
2019 - The year of judgement (divine judgement). It is divine blessings and acceleration, open heavens and the King being in the field, but it has also been judgement in the land.
You can see the turmoil in the United States of America government and other countries around the globe. God is exposing government, people, intentions, racial tension, wars, etc. (issues of the heart) People are believing lies, blinded, and deceived because they lack a divine relationship with the Father, Yahweh, Abba Father, Christ, and I AM. Many have an image of God but cannot identify with God. This is why many easily proclaim Jesus but eagerly will do something that God does not approve of. They have no fear (reverence) for God.
When we seek God, He leads us to where He is speaking. He directs our steps. He reveals Himself. He was a burning bush for Moses and His finger burned the tablets of stone with the original commandments. Seeking God will cause us to hear the voices of those who really are hearing and speaking the truth of God’s word. Everyone can speak but not everyone speaks from God. Many have said they were from God or prophets of God and were working for the people. They proclaimed visions that God had not given them. This is why we must know the voice of God and the voice of a stranger do not follow.
Many will debate to find things to bring confusion, strife, and argue points that are nonsensical. It is only the enemy bringing division and creating doubt by tricking and manipulating the simple. Sometimes people are problematic and challenge the word of God because of their lack of faith or contaminated environment. Be wise with whom you associate because everyone is not spiritually minded. Some have a form of godliness and do not understand the true power of righteousness or God.
True ministers of God will not manipulate or attempt to control. Control is a form of witchcraft. True ministers of God stick to the Word of God. They are the voices that give divine truth, divine instruction, and divine vision. These voices correct, edify, exhort, rebuke, and do not seek to pacify man or need man’s approval. They are faithful to God. The real voices of God have the sense of injustices and speak boldly and authoritatively. It is the righteous indignation that is expressed in a just way.
The indignation is confrontation towards sin. Example homosexuality, lying, immorality, idolatry, envy, malice, sowing discord, impurity, and all the works of the flesh. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood but against principalities, powers, rulers of the darkness of this world, and spiritual wickedness in high places. The apostles and prophets do not speak to the people, they speak to the spirit in or controlling the people.
We cannot share holy things with common folk. Common does not make it right. Being acceptable to man does not make it acceptable to God. If God has already judged it as wrong, an abomination, or unacceptable than that settles it. He is Holy. Many like being comfortable in conforming to this world. We are not to conform to this world but be transformed by the renewing of our mind. Renewal is a daily task. You pray the word, read it, speak it, praise it, and count it all joy.
Get in the presence of God every day. Meditate, concentrate, and consecrate the word in your heart. Meditate on the truth and declare it daily. Submit your ways unto God (attitudes, behaviors, moods, words, body language, perception, and cause every thought to be brought under the subjection of Jesus Christ). Resist the devil and he shall flee from thee.
God conditions us in His presence. He brings CHANGE to remove CHAINS. This is why we cannot give what is holy to the dogs or cast our pearls before swine. They cannot receive and will only defile that which is holy.
Being in His presence will keep you from being that gossiper and entertainer of foolishness. It will keep you from being that liar, troublemaker, etc. It will make you humble and chaste. It will bring stability in your decision making and thinking/reasoning. It is time to take out the enemy and stop lifting him up.
He is nothing but a crippled bully trying to wear women’s high heels. It is important to be in intimate relationship because God reveals who you can trust, what people are going through, who your enemy is, how you can help others, who is connected to your legacy, who is a helper or voice in your destiny, and above all He reveals you to you.
All change begins with knowledge. God will reveal the enemy’s plan even before the devil initiates it. God is wisdom and He gives understanding.
The scripture says that wisdom is the principle thing and in all thy getting get understanding. Let us say it this way. God is the principle thing and in all you get from Him get understanding. You will know the truth and the truth will make or set you free depending on which verse you want. The truth making you free is bringing clarity so you can move forward. The truth setting you free is breaking the chains so you can become free and be not again entangled with the yoke of bondage.
Despise not small beginnings. Often times we can miss great things by looking for big things. If we can be faithful over a little time being with the Lord, a little revelation and meditate on it, a small dream, or a little wind blowing. We know that the wind is real because we feel it against our skin, but the evidence of the wind is when we see the leaves moving in the tree, wind chimes whistling or windmills turning. The Holy Ghost came in like a mighty rushing wind on the day of Pentecost for 120 people in the upper room. Do you notice His wind?
If we can be faithful over the small wind, the mighty wind will show up and blow our minds. Being faithful over the little raindrop will cause us to recognize the evidence and we can be ruler over the rainfall. If we can be faithful over the sea, it will flow into the river. If we can be faithful over the river, it can flow into the ocean. If we just be faithful over the little in process, we can be faithful over the big in progress. From the stream to the ocean. Waterfall to Niagara Falls.
