Ken:
It is the beginning of a new day. It is the beginning of something brand new, and yet it is the oldest truth that we have ever acknowledged. Jesus Christ is the Lord. He is the Lord of all. And this is a new day. I know it's a day of preparation. Before the 10 days of repentance. Coming up to the Feast of Tabernacles, but I believe this is an absolute new day.
How many have been struggling in the last week or so? I admit it. It's been hard, but today it was like the Lord just opened up the gates of heaven and said. A new day of beginning. It is a new day and a day of acknowledging he is the Lord. He is the one in charge. He's the one who came and died for our sins.
He's the one that we are justified by. He is the way, the truth and the life, and there is no other. We are in this day together, and the greatest example of his coming is our oneness. Our oneness is a key to the fulfillment of every God. Everything that God wants for us in this world today, the world may be in a complete shamble and I have never seen so many things happening all at once.
And that's what was prophesied in the New Testament. Jesus said these signs would happen if we get our focus off on any other thing. Any other thing that tries to come in. Because I tell you, the enemy only has one tactic, delay and causing division, and I declare that day is over. Jesus Christ is our Lord and our Savior, and he is the one creating us, bringing us forth. We are following Him 110%.
Bill:
There's a shift coming, as it were. You talk about the whatever you want, warfare, battles, situations, distractions. None of those, as far as I'm concerned, are in the realm of spirit. When Satan was cast down, he lost his ability to function on that realm. So he functions on the natural realm.
Whether you're talking about fires or sicknesses, or all the other things that is not in the spirit. I think our challenge is to learn how to walk in the spirit, address those other two realms of soul and flesh. Right now we have a responsibility. You should be a minister, you should be blessing the spirit of your mind.
Never thought of it that way. The renovation, the fixing of our mind, the utilization of our mind is our responsibility. It is not God's responsibility here. So I'm blessing us to begin to think correctly, to begin to utilize the power of our mind. We talk all the time about how the foundations of the world, everything was set in place.
You know what? That includes your mind. You have everything you need already within your mental capacity to have your mind support what's going on in the spirit when we see our fears come up, or our doubts or our lack of trust, whatever it is, and that's not true. I will think. The way the Lord told me to think.
I will think promises, I'll think of the provisions, I'll think of the love. I'll think of the gratitude. I will think on these things, but not just to feel better, to get my mind renovated. So this, it is part of the team that's bringing forth the kingdom.
Mike:
What Enoch saw was today what we're walking in today. He reached in to this day and laid hold of Resurrection Life. And the next thing on the list for us to check off is Resurrection Life. We're just so close to stepping into it. We have the resurrection in. Jesus said, I am the resurrection and the life, and he draws in each and every one of us and the spirit of God quickens these mortal bodies.
We just need to get our brains to connect with that truth, not buy into all of these physical things that are coming our way. Like it was said earlier, Satan doesn't function very well in the spirit realm. He's going after us on that physical soul plane. That's the one he's real familiar with. If we are reaching up to the higher levels and coming into the presence of the Father and the son, and the Holy Spirit and that oneness, he can't touch us.
Ken:
God's perfecting faith. His people to stand, trust in the Lord with all your heart leaning, not on your own understanding on a human level, but trusting the Lord and leaning on him or looking to him, and not being given over to any of the thoughts or ideas of man, oh my God, there's so many people with so many things going on.
No. Our focus is the Lord Jesus Christ, and he's lifted up in our hearts, and all men will be drawn to us because we lift him up in our hearts. That's the unveiling of Christ in us.
Debbie:
It's a time of ascent, a time of ascending into his presence. We go up, it spirals up. I think because we're in the realm of spirit, we're starting to.
Move in the realm of spirit instead of on physical or emotional stage. We're in the day of spirit. In the day of spirit. Ascension is even greater. Our ascension into his presence, our ascension into who were to be and who were to become.
Lois:
We all make room for each other. For the revelation that the Lord GI gives each individual person to have their part to add to the whole God.
God is so magnificent and he's so diversified and he's so big that none of us can think that we have it. We have the answer, but we all have the answer together. We have the answer.
Ken:
Brings me back to thinking about Jesus at the Last Supper. One of the things he did exemplified what he wants for us to do to wash one another's feet.
Now, what does that mean? Is it a thing that we do on a human level and a soulish level? No. This is a spiritual washing and that is our job as sons together. To wash one another's feet, to give each other space to love each other unconditionally. As the Lord loves us, we love each other. Isn't that what the first commandment and the second commandment are?
Love the Lord with all your heart, with all your strength, all your mind, and then your neighbor is yourself. We are each other's neighbor. And this is what we do in the Lord. This is how things happen for us. This is how the oneness really is established. We don't look out for ourselves. We let somebody else look out for us and we look out for them.
Bill:
I think one of the things that we are maturing into is and has to be a comfort level of being in the presence of the father. It was never quite that intimate. It was saying, oh yeah, we're tabernacle, God's in the area, but the word tabernacle saying, Hey, you're gonna be spending time with the father. And it's like when he says, we are going to come and take up our abode with you.
We will be in the apartment over the garage. We won't be too intrusive. But he comes and takes up his boat every morning at the breakfast table. He is going to be there. Asking you questions and talking to you and giving you, so I'm just blessing us to become comfortable in the presence of the Lord and not can I handle this?
Oh, not again. It's gotta be the new normal. Our being and the presence of the Lord and the Father, and they're taking up their boat with us becomes the new normal for us as Sons of God.
Dale:
We're entering into that day of the new normal being poured out upon us. The key to that is we're talking about the washing of our feet.
Remember what he said, unless you drink of my blood and the E of my body, you have no part within me. We do it with a whole heart. And we do with that expectation. Expectation, Lord, we're following you to the right hand of the Father.
