RANKS AND ORDERS 1/27/08
Part 1
Everyone believes as he/she believes. Manifestation comes into SIGHT according to each person's belief. "As a man thinketh, so is he." (Prov. 23:7) When I say that manifestation comes into sight, I am speaking of visible sight.
You see, I AM set forth a plan, and that plan IS unfolding exactly as I AM planned it to. Nothing or no one can change one step of that plan. All anyone can do is hinder the length of "time" for the manifestation to appear, AS HIM; OR follow the flow of the LIfe of I AM to flow within and come forth into and AS REALITY.
The first thing that we must realize is that the plan that I AM planned, IS FINISHED in the realm of the Spirit. What I mean by "the realm of the Spirit" is the KNOWING and SEEING as I AM knows and sees. And a thing cannot be known unless that thing is experienced. Yes, I did say SEES the plan finished AND VISIBLE. I AM's plan is that ALL of His Finished works to be SEEN. Why else would there have been a natural earth created, and we were told to take dominion of all things of it? At one time, I am was known as "the invisible God"; He WANTS TO BE SEEN AND LIVE IN THIS NATURAL PLACE, but only as HE SEES IT. The way it is in the Spirit. The natural earth is to manifest the Spirit; heaven and earth coming together.
Now, I know that some will say, "We are not to judge by appearances." We are going to look at this, but first let me say this; most don't even KNOW what "judge" means. It does not mean to condemn or to depend only on what the natural eyes see. It means TO CORRECT WHAT IS INCORRECT. And we are to judge ALL THINGS. I know, those same people will say, "well all IS perfect in I AM's eye". And that is true. But that perfect work that I AM did IS NOT MANIFEST IN THIS EARTH, it is not seen, as yet. It IS manifesting, but that manifesting is a process. He is no longer the invisible God, His Life is US, as US. And we ARE VISIBLE and these visible bodies ARE being changed into a body that can be seen or not seen; that death cannot touch; and a body like I AM, unperishable.
Many do not agree, but I am not worried about what anyone thinks. I was told "work out YOUR OWN salvation" and "purify YOURSELF". I cannot do it for anyone else. Each must do this for themselves. To purify ourselves, does not mean of sin and all that. It means to get the mind right. RE new it. So your beliefs are your beliefs and mine are mine. Yes there is a corporate group who are believing the same thing and will manifest that belief, HIM.
I was shown the plan, in the form of birds. Yep, you heard me, birds. I turned to Prov. 22:20.
"Have not I written to thee EXCELLENT things in counsels and knowledge, that I might make thee know the certianty of the words of truth; that thou mightest answer the words of truth to them that send unto thee?"
This word "excellent" in Strong's Concordance is number 7991 and 7992 in the Heb. means: a three fold measure, also (as an officer) a general of the third rank (upward, i.e. the highest). 7992= a third part, a third day , year, or time; specificly a third story cell; third part, rank, time, three years old.
WOW!! This shows us, not only are there ranks and orders (which we will get to later), but it shows that the knowledge and understaniding that we were given, are different levels, at least three different understandings. Now, think of this, IF we were given three understandings, doesn't that tell you that these understandings ARE PROGRESSIVE? Oh yes, I agree, we HAVE all three (or more) of the levels of understanding, but, NOT MANIFESTED ALL AT ONE TIME! We are told that "first the natural, then the Spiritual", EVERYTHING in the natural IS A PARABLE to what is taking place in the Spirit. THEN we judge that thing (correct it) and allow it or call it forth as the Spriritual truth it IS, in the Spirit realm. THIS IS A PROCESS.
When I said I was shown some of this, as birds, this is what I was shown. There are three types of birds, (parable) , as people.
1) the vucher; the vulcher will eat ANYTHING. Nasty or clean, it will eat anything.
2) the ostrich; the ostirich eats and then when fear or threat comes, they stick their heads into the sand, FOOLING themselves. They imagine that they are safe as long as they don't see the truth of what is threating them.
3) the eagle; the eagle represents the Spirit, working between heaven and earth. Bringing both together.
These birds represent the people of I AM. There are some who will take in anything they hear. They depend on someone else teaching and telling them, and they suck it right up, and then forget it until they start to feel "religious" again. Then there are the ostriches; they think that anything they put their head (belief) in will save them. So they imagine all the beautiful things of I AM, and think that just by believing it, it will appear, it will manifest. They don't have to do anything but believe their beliefs. Then there are the eagles. The eagle flies high, into the heavens (Spirit); it has PERFECT eyesight; it can see a prey from miles away. It flies in the heavens and descends into the earth realm and shares what the heavens have shown him. They depend not on man. They get their own food and are STRONG and WISE. There are many in each group of birds today. Each group is a rank and an order.
I want to look at the word APPEARANCE. There are those who constantly say, "we are not to judge after the appearance of a thing". but I don't think they have bothered to UNDERSTAND this word, appearance.
WEBSTER'S DICTIONARY
APPEARANCE
()The act of appearing, (2)the way something looks, outward aspect, (3)a false show, pretense.
APPEAR:
(1) to come into view, (2) to look or seem to be, (3) to be presented or published, (4) to present oneself. (ex: to present onesself before a court.
IF you combine the 3 definitions together, this is how it reads; "the act of appearing is the way something looks in the outward aspect which is a false show, a pretense, IF you are not seeing through and as the Eye of I AM."
Now, those who believe that EVERYTHING is already perfect here on the earth, just as it is in I AM's plan, can see, IF they WILL see, that the plan is only partly manifested. To be complete, we will SEE all finished works manifested in this natural realm with Spiritual understanding of it. Heaven and earth will be the NEW EARTH spoken of in the bible. (just as the changing of the natural body is a parable of this new earth).
We have to understand that the seeing or appearance or manifestation depends on BELIEFS. But, know this, no matter what we believe; no matter what we want to confess, no matter how much of th imagination we use, NOTHING CAN CHANGE TRUTH!! Truth is truth, regardless of what is believed about that truth, and when the beliefs do not line up with the plan, it is and will be seen as false belief, beliefs of error, and will produce a false show.
The vulcher can eat as it pleases; the ostrich can keep its head in the sand, BUT BOTH WILL EXPERIENCE the death of the natural body. You see, to be an overcomer, death must be beat. And while the head is in the sand, the body is not! The body will die, but the head (mind) will go on learning the truth, but in the invisible realm. I know, many say that it doesn't matter if the body dies or not, IF that were true, why would I AM's plan include CHANGEING THE BODY? (1 Cor. 15:51-54). Sticking our heads in the sand and confessing that disease doesn't exist, will not save us from death. The only thing that will save us from death is DOMINION AS HIM!!! I was asked, "what do we take dominion of? All is in Him." That is true, but, it has not manifested in this realm. Could it be that many do not WANT to take dominion because they fear that they can not? Remember there MUST BE FRUIT SHOWING of a completer thing.
The truth COMES INTO VIEW, when truth is presented and it doesn't SEEM TO BE, it IS AS IT TRUELY IS, SEEN. The plan of I AM IS TO BE SEEN , SEEN, SEEN. When some say, there is no process, then they do away with the PATTERN set for us to gaze upon to know the way we are to step into truth. There are so many examples of PROCESS throughout the bible; and WE HAVE EXPERIENCED THE PROCESS UP TO WHERE OUR TRUTH IS NOW.
Look at the BEST EXAMPLE, I AM. He was God, and invisible Spirit Being. (step 0ne). Then He manifested in the flesh and brought forth sonship. (second step, 1Tim 3:16). The, after laying the pattern that we are to follow, after leaving Sonship, He RETURNED to His True Identity, I AM. He entered each and every person in this whole cosmos and others, He became visible IN US. NOW, the Pattern is to be followed by US. We are to manifest Who we truely ARE, right here on earth, in this visilbe realm. Some are seeing this part of the process of the plan. And IF you don't call what He did a PROCESS, I don't know what you call it.
Another example of PROCESS was HIM AGAIN; When He created, He DID NOT create everything in the same ("time") day. Day one, day two, day three, day four, day five, day six, IS THIS NOT A PROCESS? And then on the seventh day HE STOPPED WORKING!!!!!! Hear this people, He is not working anymore, EXCEPT THROUGH US!!!
Another example, is the Word. Is there not the milk of the word; the meat of the word; the strong meat of the word? You don't get the understanding of all three at one time, it is a process. (1Cor. 3: 1-3)
We ARE in a process. Some in some level, some in another level. In ranks and orders. And our rank cannot be broken, it can only be elevated as our beliefs change to THE truth, because we are what we think, be it in error or not in error. Religious thinking can be the most devious, subtle enemy there is. And we are told that in THESE days that even if possible the very elect would be fooled.
Yes I agree, it is a wonderful, beautiful thing to THINK that all is well and living. But it is not true, at least not in this realm. It is just like Eve did. She had it all, she WAS IT ALL, but she tried to THINK herself into the manifestation of it all, and ended up in a dreamworld. All she had to do was manifest what and Who she actually was, I AM. She deceived herself by putting her head in the ground. You see, in the Spirit, we don't work, it is done and finished (Gen. 1;26-27), but then the natural world was created, flesh and blood came forth and had to "till" the ground" (Gen 2 :5). The Spirit does not do the tilling; a man (body) does the tilling. Yes it starts out as labor, but as it processes, it becomes rest and we receive accept and follow what the TRUE us KNOWS to do. And that is bring heaven and earth together. Now, if you SEE this done, God bless you, but it is the Lord God blessing you, yourself, not I AM.
As we saw, God represents the Spirit realm. JESUS represents the natural realm. You see, God BECAME a natural man. He did the work in the natural realm, through a natural man, that we call Jesus. 1Tim 3:16 and John 17:4-5) Let's look at this and I am going to us A LOT of scripture. (of course, you need the Spirit to give understanding, but this just confirms the PROCESS that we are in.)
I AM REPRESTS THE SPIRIT REALM:
John 4:24, "God is a Spirit; and they that worship him must worship in Spirit and in truth."
2Cor.3:17, " Now the Lord is that Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty."
Eph. 4:4-6, " There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; One Lord, one faith, one baptishm, One God and Father of all, who is alove all, and throug all , and in you all."
All that He brought forth, He brought forth in the Spirit realm, PERFECT, COMPLETE, ALL AS ONE IN HIM:
Duet.32:4, "He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he."
1Cor 15:28, " And when all things shall be subdured unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all."
Eph. 1:4, "According as HE hath chosen us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love; having PREDESTINATED us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of HIS (GOd's) will."
1Tim. 3:16, "And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness; God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory."
This is truth, for understanding's sake, it WAS truth, and IS STILL truth; every word of it. He is perfect, His ways are perfect and all that He creats is perfect, IN THE SPIRIT REALM where He brought them forth. As for the natural realm, Jesus represents that realm. He showed us that WE are to bring forth all of that perfection, from the Spirit realm, into the natural realm. I KNOW not all will agree with what I am about to say, and that is ok. I was told that Jesus SAW all things perfect in this natural realm. I don't agree. IF He saw all things perfect how did He see illness? How did He see anyone dead? (literally). Why did He work miracles? Yes, in His mind, He saw things as He created them, perfect, but He SAW in the natural that HE had to show mankind that THEY would and would produce the finished works, here on earth. It's like folks say, "Jesus never got mad, angry. His emotions were not made up of such a thing as anger". Now you tell me, can you see Jesus, calmly walking into the temple, and in such a sweet loving tone, say, "now fellows, you have made my Father's house a den of money changers, please don't do that?" I don't think so. He WAS ANGRY. Not really at the people, but at the thoughts that were ruling the people. He was angery because they didn' know truth and abide in it. He saw corruption. He saw illness. He saw death. Just as it is seen today. Yes it is a false seeing. A false appearance; but UNTIL we finish the process that we came to do, it will remain seen. He didn't make us to be vulchers or ostriches. To eat just anything, or to hide our minds in the sand, the religious carnal thinking. He meant for us to JUDGE the things of this earth, that is, to CHANGE things the true way they are created. To take dominion of ALL THINGS. This comes from the Spiritual realm, into our natural realm and WE manifest the true. We don't just imagine that it is already done. IMAGINE that you never die, but do not do what He told us to do, and I want to see where anyone who does this, is in 100 yrs. Why did He give us dominion? Why did He tell us to use it? Why did He give us His fullness? To sit around and imagine? This is not my belief.
I hear, all the time, some who are claiming that they have arrived; they are perfect, in this realm, and that all things are finished in this realm and there is no need for anymore teaching. Yet, they are teaching, daily. He is no respector of persons; we are all in this process. Some are further along than othere. They are in a rank not the same as the imaginers. The bible says that everything is a rehappening. I can see this clearly, by looking at the birds. I remember when all thought they would be raptured out. An escape of a kind that they had to do nothing, it would just happen. And I see it the same, rehappening with the ostriches. Stick your head in the sand and think that when you pull it out, everything around you will be changed; you have nothing to do, except believe your beliefs. But, as some are finding out, when they pull their heads out of the sand, nothing has changed, in their body or their life. They have not used ANYTHING that I AM gave them, of His fullness, because they imagine that it isn't needed. But, we saw with Jeus, the Pattern, that He only DID what He heard the Father say to do. That was a process. The process of Jesus' journey was going from doing what He heard Father say, to BEING Father. Friends this did not happen over night. Firends PLEASE, MOVE IN HIM, LIVE IN HIM, HAVE YOUR BEING IN HIM, and allow the process to finish in this realm, as it is in the Spirit realm, Take all of that fullness and use it. USE, includes doing a thing, not just believing a thing.
Let me make this perfectly clear: We ARE all that He says we are; We HAVE all that He has; We CAN DO all that He does, because we ARE HIM, but, we have not completely manifested Him yet. It is coming, and the process will conclude. The RACE will have been run=action. And when this happens, earth will be heaven in more ways than just in our imagination. It will be seen. And each will SEE it, but only in their rank and order.
He is the Finished, we are the manifesters. When we finish manifesting, ONLY HE WILL BE SEEN.
We will look more at ranks and orders in the next apart.
Bessings and love.
