Boldness
part two
Father has spoken and said that He wants a people with boldness. That same
boldness that we had when we first come to know ABOUT Him, only now , boldness
from those who KNOW HIM AS HE IS. For until they know Him, they cannot know
themselves.
There is a particular boldness that I am talking about. Folks think that we
cannot force boldness, but, you see there is a boldness that has been in us
since before the foundation of the world. It is the same boldness of God. We ARE
created in His image. Does God have a boldness? He has a boldness that when He
speaks He KNOWS what will appear. I am not talking about boldness to witness to
people; or boldness to do things. I talking about the boldness that is the
reason for our being awakened. The reason that our remembrance is returning to
us.
It takes a boldness to know who we are. It takes a boldness to know all that in
within us. It takes boldness to know who and what we are. It takes a boldness to
live HIS LIFE. It takes boldness to believe His Words. For as a man believeth,
so is he.
Gal.2:20, "I am crucified with Christ, nevertheless I live; yet not I, but
Christ liveth in me......."
Are we or have we been really bold enough to believe these words? Think about
it for a little while. IF we really believed that it is Christ who lives in us,
we need to think about His Life. Does His Life have sickness? Does His Life see
death? Just these two questions gives us an answer, even if we don't or won't
admit it. Folks, it takes boldness to change from the carnal way of thinking,
to the way the Mind of Christ thinks. It takes a boldness to meditate day and
night on what Father's Truths tells us. And for those who tells us that we
can't force boldness, then we need to allow them to know that IF we are in the
image of our Father, that boldness IS ALREADY IN US WAITING TO BE BROUGHT FORTH.
You see, we can't pick and choose what we WANT to believe and what we DON'T WANT
to believe. Either we believe the WHOLE TRUTH or we believe none of it. You
see, Father doesn't want us to be "half believers", He wants us to believe the
ball of wax. When we don't believe, we call Father a liar. We have made God in
the image that we want Him to be, instead of us manifesting the REAL God. Some
want Him as a Santa Claus: will You give me this, or , will You give me that?
Please Santa, will You? Some of us want Him as a healer. Oh please heal me and
I'll live for You the rest of my life.
Well, I have good news, because apparently, we haven't really heard it before.
The good news? He's NOT Santa, and He's NOT a healer. Surprised? Well, think
about it. He has GIVEN US ALL THAT HE HAS:
Col.2:10-11, "And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality
and power: In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without
hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of
Christ. Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through
the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead, And you,
being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened
together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses;..."
Now, when Santa gives you your wishes, he has given them, right? Well, look at
what God has given us!! WE ARE COMPLETE IN HIM!!! Do you realize what that
means? Have you just sat and meditated on the meaning of this? We ARE
COMPLETE, that means that we are in need of NOTHING, NO THING!! But, is it
believed? Obviously not. Because we keep saying " will You.....will You....will
You?" What more can He give? When He has given His all, what is left for Him to
give? hmmmmm... So, Santa, He is not. And we need to realize this and have the
boldness to believe it.
As for the healer: doesn't and hasn't He told us about this?
1Peter 2:24, "Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that
we, being dead to sins SHOULD live unto righteousness: BY WHOSE STRIPES WE WERE
HEALED".
IS 53:5, "But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our
iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we
ARE HEALED."
Let me ask; are we in Christ? I sure hope that your answer is YES. Then let me
ask another question: Is there sickness in Him? hmmmmm..... You see folks, it's
all in our head, and it's all lies. IF we believe we are Father's Christ on
earth, which we are, if we are IN CHRIST, then is there really sickness in us?
Is there sin in us? If the answer is yes, then we are calling God a liar, and
we're believing the lie of the carnal mind. That's what keeps folks sick. IF we
are complete in Him, don't we have the same power that is HIS? And yet, folks go
up to every prayer line they can find to ask to be healed. Sad. I want to tell
you something; YOUR MIND ONLY BELIEVES WHAT YOU ALLOW TO BE PUT IN IT!!
Think about it. While you're thinking about it, ask yourself if you're bold
enough to believe what He tells us.
Our Pattern, Jesus, did NOT HAVE to die. He chose to. To give us all that we
are, the exact thing that He was when He walked this same earth......Father's
Christ! He KNEW Who He was. Do we? IF we don't, nothing can save us from
sickness, disease or death, NOTHING. I believe that the ONLY thing that we are
judged for is how we are using the anointing of God. The anointing IS HIS LIFE
and we HAVE IT.
Another thing, can we go a week without thinking about what we will need next
week? Some are/have learned to not think about next week at all. Because He is
a God of NOW, not the past, not the future, He is NOW. He told us,
"take no thought about tomorrow, tomorrow will take care of itself".
Do we worry about money problems? Why should we? Did not He tell us that
He cares more for us than the lilies of the field?
Don't' we hear folks say, all the time, "oh if only I could quit sinning. I
have fought this thing for years and still make sin a part of my daily life,
but, I'm trying to die daily". Well, worry and unbelief is a way of denying
God. Either we are sinners, or we're not. Either we are in His image or we're
not. We need to FOCUS on who and what we are instead of focusing on what the
carnal mind tells us that we are not.
You know, it truly does become a knowing, when we meditate on HIM and HIS
TRUTHS. Experiencing that knowing, is when we stop focusing on anything except
who we are. Everytime the carnal mind tells us that we are sick, we need to tell
it what God says. You see, we keep separating ourselves from Him, because we do
EXACTLY the OPPOSITE of what Jesus did.
"He considered it NOT robbery to be equal with God". Folks,
what are we made out of? GOD!! His VERY substance, so how can it be robbery to
think what we truly are? When you think about it, it's worse to think that
we're NOT equal to God.
Folks, no matter how many pieces you cut an apple into, each slice is still and
apple. It's the same with God. He doesn't change, and neither do we. We are
what He is. We came out of Him. We/ve been lied to, by the carnal mind about
what we are.
1John 4:15-17, "Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God
dwelleth in him, and he in God. And we have known and believed the love that
God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God and
God in him. Hence is our love made perfect, that we may HAVE THE BOLDNESS in
the day of judgment; BECAUSE AS HE IS< SO ARE WE IN THIS WORLD>."
Listen to what this is saying: IF you believe that Jesus is the Son of
God......well we all believe that, right? Well then GOD LIVES IN US AND WE LIVE
IN HIM!! Did you hear that? That makes us what? ONE WITH HIM!! IF we love,
what's it tell us? Then we live in God and God lives in us! That makes us ONE,
doesn't it? Folks, THIS IS the day of judgment. And remember, JUDGMENT simply
means to make right what we've had wrong, in our mind. IF we have any hope at
all, then we'd BETTER BE BOLD ABOUT WHO WE ARE. We need to stop caring what
other folks say about us. Did it stop Jesus, when people called him crazy, or a
liar, or a blasphemer? He cared less. HE KNEW WHO HE WAS!! He acted it, He
confessed it, and He lived it. And how does that scripture end?
"AS HE IS, SO ARE WE IN THIS WORLD!" This
word "this world" means, "in this present arrangement". It doesn't matter where
we are, it doesn't change WHO we are.
I'll tell you something. There are times that I feel just like Jesus must have
felt, when He walked into the temple and tore it up!! It may not sound loving,
but, I just want to SCREAM, "WAKE UP, YOU DUMMIES!!" Please don't get mad at
me, but, when we listen to what the carnal mind says, we ARE dummies!! And I
don't want to look or sound religious, I want to SCREAM "WAKE UP TO WHO YOU ARE!
THERE'S NOTHING WRONG IN KNOWING WHO YOU ARE, THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG IS NOT
KNOWING WHO YOU ARE!!" It's because I love you!! We've been religious long
enough, and where has it got us? Headed for a grave, somewhere. I want ALL to
LIVE and LIVE THE LIFE OF GOD!!
Folks, this IS NOT doing away with God. We are ONE WITH HIM. And we need to
know it and live it. That's when all that is not of Him disappears!! IF we
would believe this and Know it, and live it, could there possibly be any
sickness or death in us? NO!!! We are His VERY REFLECTION!! EXACTLY AS HE IS.
Stop looking at yourself as a human. This body is not us. We ARE SPIRIT
BEINGS!! Look at Genesis 1 and 2. In chapter one, we see God created man in
His image. Then in chapter two, it tells us that there was NO MAN TO TILL THE
LAND. Haven't you ever wondered what happened to the man that had been created?
You see, the LAND was material. A SPIRIT doesn't do the natural. There wasn't a
man to till the land, until Adam was formed!! We WERE and ARE SPIRIT BEINGS. A
Spirit doesn't get sick. A Spirit doesn't see death. We shouldn't see sickness
or death or any kind of hardship. The carnal mind has convinced us that this
flesh body is US and it's not. It's just a vehicle to get around and be seen,
that's all. The real us lives IN the body. Where does the bible tell us that God
lives? In a temple, not made with hands. A vehicle to be seen in this world. Do
you know that everytime you look at someone, that you are looking at God? Even
if they don't know who they are, you do. And instead of allowing the carnal mind
to tell you this person is mean, or stingy, or anything else, YOU tell the
carnal mind that you are beholding God.!! We are ONE, with our God. We cannot
be separated and there will come a time when all know this. WOW!! Then will you
see a difference in everything.
There is not doubt whatsoever, that when I had that first stroke, and God spoke
and said,
"NOTHING can touch me",
that, that's why the stroke did not linger, it was bounced off by the OVERRIDING
POWER that lives in this body. No doubt at all. I was HEARING FATHER, and when
you are hearing Him, the carnal mind can't say a word to you. And that word
"OVERRIDING POWER" stays with me constantly. When I first heard Him say it, this
is what came to mind:
Eph.1:18-21, "The eyes of your understanding being enlightened: that ye may know
what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of glory OF HIS INHERITANCE
IN THE SAINTS. And what is the exceeding greatness OF HIS POWER TO USWARD WHO
BELIEVE , according to the working of HIS MIGHTY POWER."
Did you see where the inheritance that He gave us, is? IN US!!! BUT, you see
what it takes,
"to us who BELIEVE"!!
Now, does it matter what anyone at all thinks? No, it's what YOU BELIEVE! Let's
go on, here. We're talking about that OVERRIDING POWER .
VS 20-22, "Which he wrought in CHRIST (God's anointed), when he raised him from
the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places. FAR ABOVE
ALL PRINCIPALITY, AND POWER AND MIGHT, AND DOMINION, AND EVERY NAME THAT IS
NAMED, NOT ONLY IN THIS WORLD, BUT ALSO IN THAT WHICH IS TO COME. AND PUT
ALL.....ALL....ALL THINGS UNDER HIS FEET, AND GAVE HIM TO BE HEAD OVER
ALL....ALL....ALL THINGS UNDER HIS FEET..."
Now, look back at verse 18-21, where is this inheritance? IN
THE SAINTS!!!
Now, look at verse 23:
"Which IS HIS BODY, THE FULLNESS OF HIM THAT FILLETH ALL IN ALL."
IF we are ONE with Him, THE FULLNESS OF HIM IS IN US!!! Now, listen to this. We
are ONE with Him, right? Then, this scripture is speaking of US TOO:
IS 11:1-3, "And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a
branch shall grow out of his roots: And the Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon
him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might,
the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord; and shall make him of quick
understanding in the fear of the Lord: and he shall not judge after the sight of
his eyes, neither reprove after hearing of his ears: but with righteousness
shall he judge the poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth; and
he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his
lips shall he slay the wicked."
This is speaking of us, as well as it spoke of Jesus. We are the same Spirit
Being that He is, because we came out from within Him, which means that within
us, we HAVE the spirit of wisdom, understanding, counsel, might, knowledge and
the fear of the Lord.. Hallelujah!! The earth that we are smitting is OUR
EARTH, His temple not made with hands. How are smitting our earth? With the rod
of our mouth and with the breath of our lips. HIS TRUTHS!!! And look at how we
are doing it:
"not after the sight of our eyes, or the hearing of our ears"!!
We are taking His Truths, His Words and smitting our earth with them, everytime
the carnal mind tells us anything that is different from what He tells us that
we are!! We are KNOWING WHO WE ARE and by KNOWING WHO WE ARE, ALL sickness and
death cannot live in us, because we are ONE with Him, and
as He is, so are we in this world!!!
As this Truth is raised up in us, and our focus is stayed on Him and who we are
in Him, we began to EXPERIENCE HIS LIFE.
Folks, I pray that you meditate on this. Allow it to be a part of you. Keep your
focus on it. You will see HIM manifest!! This isn't an overnight happening. But,
it is true and the more you meditate on it, the more it becomes such a LIVING
way of Life, HIS LIFE.
Be BOLD!! Throw down all that we've been told. Be BOLD in not
being ashamed of Who you are. Be BOLD to KNOW WITHOUT A DOUBT WHO YOU
ARE. You know, He gave us full salvation. And NOW, He is telling us:
"WORK OUT YOUR OWN SALVATION".(Phil
2:12) It is in us, we have to work it OUT OF US!! It matters not what anyone
else says, because each person has to work it out for themselves, we can't work
it out for them and they can't work it out for us. He tells us to
purify ourselves.(1John
3:3). How do we purify ourself? By taking the trash that we've believed all
these years. By NOT believing that we are sinners; and NOT believing that we are
mere mortals. The changing of the mind will change everything, including the
body. If we have guilt, we're saying that God didn't do what He tells us He did.
NOW, ARE WE SONS OF GOD!!
(1John 3:2) We
should be called Sons of God.
(1John 3:1) Folks,
NOW is the judgment of the world , and NOW is the prince of this world cast out.
(John 12;31) The prince of the world is the carnal thoughts. As we purify our
mind, all is gone but Father, Who we are ONE WITH.
Be blessed.

It is understandable for a child to be afraid of the dark; but, why would an
adult be afraid of the LIGHT?
