In this devotional teaching I talk about the disposition of the 144,000 being without guile, as well as the types and shadows of them in Scripture.

This is a prophetic word wherein Father is saying to us that to the same degree you find yourself in despair, the same degree your faith has to match it. Jesus is the Patterned Son, our Forerunner. He said, “Take up your cross and follow Me”. Not all of us have the same crosses to bear. It comes in different forms. It behooves us to discern between spiritual attacks and our crosses to bear. However, what we need to grasp and contemplate is how we bear our cross. Are we without guile? When our buttons are pushed, do we have to defend ourselves? Are we running with the crowd or have we seen the gift that silence truly is? Are we priestly in our lives no matter what we do? Because when Jesus as the spotless Lamb of God laid on the altar, He laid His life down willingly, not trying to save face or defend Himself. His sacrifice was priestly. Overall, this teaching focuses on the priesthood. You will note that the requirement is ultimate, for our God is an ultimate God. He has made a way for us to enter by faith. We are His workmanship, and not only does our heart have to be rented in repentance, but the requirement is HOLINESS UNTO THE LORD. Not a moment in time but a way of living. This is ultimate and only possible by His grace. For of Him, and through Him, and to Him are all things -- to Whom be glory forever. Amen. In this devotional post I share a vision I had wherein the Lord spoke to me about the pearls of wisdom He gave me during a fast. These Pearls of Wisdom are also here on the His Fair Maidens website for you to read and meditate on. The truth is that it took the death of the cross to rent that veil so that we may enter. And yet, some of us find ourselves still in the outer court or inner court. Have you given it any thought that we are found in the heavenly Tabernacle of God when we enter the tent of meeting -- there where we go to find mercy and grace to help in the time of need? Even though we are stuck in our stuffy rooms surrounded with crying kids and demands that require our attention, we have actually entered into that realm that transcends time. No wonder it takes faith. However, the renting that has to take place is the renting of our own hearts. Psalm 102:14: "For thy servants take pleasure in her stones, and favor the dust thereof." This pleasure and favor speak of setting your affection on showing mercy and pity. Who are these servants? Those whom He has prepared for such a time as this. This is something they are as servants and not something they merely do out of obligation… they ARE a compassion for stones and a pity for dust. We know that the apostolic dispensation that will come during the start of the tribulation will be from those stones that have been built in Him, who is their capstone, Jesus Christ, the stone the builders rejected. And He will through His living stones lay the foundations that have been broken down and brought to dust. They will be the builders of the foundation. This teaching is with regard to a vision that I saw of a clown that looked as this picture. It is about a mocking spirit that is rising up in these days to mock God's children, but God will not be mocked. Even though truth is reality, reality is something we have to “step” into for a lack of a better word. I believe such was the case with our Savior when He stepped into the garden of Gethsemané that night… He was stepping into reality. And reality strips you of all pretense and words of grandeur. It causes you to look into a mirror where you no longer can deny what you see or what you are. And I believe that in the Garden, that was the reality that our Lord and Savior stepped into. It was an agonizing of another kind where He was crying out to God, His Father, in utter weakness... baptized in weakness.
Presently His Bride is being persecuted by a flood of words from this world, by the enemy. His mouth is wide open and he is screaming as loud as he can. And let’s face it, it is overwhelming, because he is screaming threats. He is making his plans known and he is making it clear that he is coming after us. The enemy has one aim and that is to wear out the saints. The only safe place is in a place of hiddenness in Him where He keeps us in perfect peace. Jesus hated injustice, but He never lost sight of His Father’s point of view, which is the Kingdom of God. Usually when you want the best view you go to a rock… to have an elevated position and different perspective. Whose kingdom are you really building now? Is it this world’s kingdom you are fighting for? Is it His Kingdom? This world is full of distractions and unfortunately many of His children forget that they are not of this world. During the tribulation there will be those saints who has been pre-destined to lay their physical lives down so that others through their testimony of martyrdom will be saved. However, there are those who will not have a choice, who will instead of being victors will be victims. The difference lies within a disposition that has been wrought in them in all their preparation. Now is the time where He is shaking us so that we may get up, put on our shoes, and focus on that particular office He has prepared us for -- to not be distracted by everything around us but to know that the time is upon us where it will no longer be about anything but the Kingdom of God. Are you willing to let go of what was, so that you may embrace the new life that He has promised? For there will be a price to pay as you get up from your comfy chair. Are you willing to place all on the altar, so that He may shift you and you may step into that which He has prepared? Our love for Him is not measured by how we show Him affection but by how we love one another. “Peter, loveth thou Me, then feed My sheep”. If we cannot love our friends, how shall we love our enemies, those who have every intention of causing us suffering and even death? We cannot feign this love when it comes to our enemies. Only Christ in us can love like this. Being in love is just one of the best feelings ever! Nobody else exists, an infatuation overtakes all your senses, and you become a helpless romantic. All you can think about is the one you love, leaving little love notes or poems and lavishing all your time and attention on the object of your love. There is just nothing quite like being madly in love. We are the object of His love. However, for some, "The thrill is gone". Our tendency is to see things through our own particular filters, especially when we know them to be doctrinally true. And, of course, truth is always to be upheld. However, He the seeing that He wants to bring us into is not seeing the truth about Him, but The Truth - I AM. It is in the secret place where we not only see Him as He truly is but also as we are. Here we learn not only about the Truth but learn to know Him who is the Truth. God has tolerated the hidden sins of His children for so long, but will not bring judgment on the world before He sends it upon His church first. For judgment begins with the house of God first. |
