‘’ Praying That the Peace of God will be upon you all for this new year 2019 to come’’

The Testimony of The Christ.

“Leaving the Past in the Dust’’

The Good News of The Gospel of Jesus Christ’’ Hebrews 13:20 Benediction-20 Now may the God of Peace who brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, the great shepherd of the sheep, by the Blood of the eternal covenant,

Hebrews 13:20
Now may the God of peace, having brouhgt out from the dead the great Shepherd of the sheep, our Lord Jesus, by the blood of the eternal covenant, 

1 Thessalonians 5:23
Now may the God of peace himself sanctify you completely and may your whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. He who calls you is faithful, He will surely do it.                                                                                           
                                                       
Jesus Christ Gods Own Prefect Lamb.

He was without fault,

without defect,

without blemish.

Hebrews 9:14
How much more will the Blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, purify our conscience from dead works to serve the living God.

He was a perfect man who walked in a perfect and complete body, soul, and spirit, so He could get that pure Blood over to us.  The Blood was given to affect the soul.  It is the life of the flesh.  When Adam sinned, His bloodline was affected because of that choice, it contaminated his soul and his body was affected as a result.  The body later died although that was not immediate.  Our spirit man is full of the life of Elohim on the inside.

“He’s always ready to go to affect your natural body”

Romans 12:2
Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.

There are fault lines in our soul, but the Spirit of the Lord lays Godly Foundations. It is time to rip up and pull out the fault lines of the generations, fault lines keep us in a cycle of destruction of drug addictions and destructive relationships.

1 Samuel 2:8
He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the ash heap. He seats them among princes and bestows on them a throne of honour. For the foundations of the earth are the LORD’s, and upon them He has set the world.



"From the Dust you came"

Just as he who was a being of dust, so also is that which is of the dust, and just as he who is The Being from Heaven, so also is the Heavenly.

1 Samuel 2:8
“He raises up the poor out of the dust, and lifts up the beggar from the dunghill, to set them among princes, and to make them inherit the Throne of Glory: for the pillars of the earth are the LORD'S, and he hath set the world upon them.”


Isaiah 52:2
Shake thyself from the dust; arise, and sit down, O Jerusalem: loose thyself from the bands of thy neck, O captive daughter of Zion.

I heard the Lord say, "It's time to leave your past in the dust, shake the dust off your feet, and walk in the future and hope I have planned for you." Leaving your past in the dust often means renewing your mind.


 
Luke 2:10
Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, who is Christ the Lord. And this will be a sign for you: : You will find a baby wrapped in swaddling cloth’s and lying in a manger.” And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying: “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among those whom he is pleased!”

“Glory to God in the highest,

and on earth peace among those with whom he is pleased!”


Revelation 22:3
No longer will there be anything accursed, but the Throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it, and his servants will worship Him.

“Behold our God”

Isaiah 25:9
It will be said on that day, “Behold, this is our God; we have waited for Him, that he might save us. This is the Lord; we have waited for him; let us be glad and rejoice in his salvation.”



Isaiah 9:6
For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon His shoulder, and His name shall be called Wonderful Counsellor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.


The book of Isaiah is loaded with messianic prophecies, intermingling his first and second coming in the same context. Take the 11th chapter as a sample, where it states:
“A twig will grow out of the stump of Jesse, and a sprout from his roots will bear fruit. And the spirit of Jehovah will settle upon him, the spirit of wisdom and of understanding, the spirit of counsel and of mightiness, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of Jehovah. And he will find delight in the fear of Jehovah. He will not judge by what appears to his eyes, nor reprove simply according to what his ears hear. He will judge the lowly with fairness, and with uprightness he will give reproof in behalf of the meek ones of the earth. He will strike the earth with the rod of his mouth and put the wicked to death with the breath of his lips’’


Isaiah 11:1-4
A shoot will spring up from the stump of Jesse, and a branch from his roots will bear fruit. The Spirit of the LORD will rest on Him, the Spirit of wisdom and understanding,
the Spirit of counsel and strength, the Spirit of knowledge and the fear of the LORD.
And He will delight in the fear of the LORD. He will not judge by what His eyes see, and He will not decide by what His ears hear, but with righteousness He will judge the poor, and with equity He will decide in favour of the earth’s oppressed. He will strike the earth with the rod of His mouth and slay the wicked with the breath of His lips.

"The Triumphant Lamb of the Apocalypses"

The Triumphant Lamb of the Apocalyses - Book of Revelation 1.

Revelation 5:8
And when he had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each holding a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints.

Abrahamic Lamb

Genesis 22:8
Abraham answered, “God Himself will provide the lamb for the burnt offering, my son.” And the two walked on together.

1 Corinthians 5:6-7
Your boasting is not good. Do you not know that a little leaven leavens the whole lump? Cleanse out the old leaven that you may be a new lump, as you really are unleavened. For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed.




Revelation 22:16
“I, Jesus, have sent my angel to testify to you about these things for the churches. I am the root and the descendant of David, the bright morning star.”

 “Of the Seed of David”

Prophecy: The Lord told Jeremiah six centuries before the birth of Christ that He would come from the lineage of David: “In those days, and at that time, will I cause the Branch of righteousness to grow up unto David; and he shall execute judgment and righteousness in the land”

Jeremiah 33:15
In those days, and at that time, will I cause the Branch of righteousness to grow up unto David; and he shall execute judgment and righteousness in the land”

Fulfillment: Matthew gives us Christ’s genealogy, showing how the Lord is descended from that king of long ago: “The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham. … So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David until the carrying away into Babylon are fourteen generations; and from the carrying away into Babylon unto Christ are fourteen generations”

Matthew 1:1-17
… So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David until the carrying away into Babylon are fourteen generations; and from the carrying away into Babylon unto Christ are fourteen generations”

Despite the humble circumstances of His birth, prophets declared that kings would come to see Christ: “And the Gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising.

Isaiah 60:3
“And the Gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising.


“Visited by Kings and Wise men”


The three Kings recognized Jesus Christ as the Messiah while He was still a child, and travelled thousands of miles to worship him. They doggedly followed a star which led them to Jesus. By the time they met Jesus, he was in a house and was a child, not an infant, implying they arrived a year or more after his birth.

“Three Gifts from Three Kings”

The gifts of the wise men symbolize Christ's identity and mission: Gold for a king, Incense for God, and myrrh used to anoint the dead.


Exodus 40:34
The Glory of the Lord Then the cloud covered the tent of meeting, and the Glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle.


Ezekiel 22:30
So I sought for a man among them who would make a wall and stand in the gap before Me on behalf of the land, that I should not destroy it; but I found no one.

Note that the scripture above speaks about an intercessor standing in the gap before God the Father on behalf of others. We must practice this before God on behalf of our loved ones, ourselves, and those we pray for.

Here you see the level of the authority given us through the power of Christ and His Blood.  Since our Father is not a respecter of persons, these scriptures absolutely apply to us.  We are “Jesus” on this earth through His power, and as such we yield that authority just as the “seventy” Luke 10) did when sent out into the towns by Jesus even before Pentecost or the cross.
                                                  
Luke 10:1-9
Now after these things, the Lord also appointed seventy-two others and sent them in two by two before His face, into every city and place where He Himself was about to go. And he said to them, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few….. And heal the sick in it, and say to them, 'The kingdom of God has drawn near to you.'



Revelation 12:11
And they have conquered him by the Blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, for they loved not their lives even unto death.

1 Peter 1:18-20 
knowing that you were ransomed from the futile ways inherited from your forefathers, not with perishable things such as silver or gold, but with the precious Blood of Christ, like that of a lamb without blemish or spot. He was foreknown before the foundation of the world but was made manifest in the last times for the sake of you.

“My bride has I AM flowing through her veins”

My people, if you want to go into the ark like Noah, you have to cleanse your DNA through applying My blood through repentance, through petitioning in My heavenly courtroom. Remember, your spirit can be Holy and righteous and you can think you are on the right road because of it. But if you do not take the next step through cleansing your DNA and working on your soul dimension, you are divided within yourself – in your spirit, on fire, and in your soul, cold, and therefore you are mixed, mixed and lukewarm. My bride is not mixed, she is single minded and in unity with Me, one in soul and spirit.
                
I want My people to break down the altar, the order and the structure of Baal in your blood (DNA) that your forefathers have cast up. Like Gideon had to break down the altar of Baal. Pull down the altar of Baal that your father has, and cut down the wooden image that is beside it; and build an altar, to the LORD your God on top of this rock laid in proper order [proper arrangement].

Judges 6:25-26
On that very night the LORD said to Gideon, “Take your father’s young bull and a second bull seven years old, tear down your father's altar to Baal, and cut down the Asherah pole beside it.

Revelation 7:14
I said to him, “Sir, you know.” And he said to me, “These are the ones coming out of the great tribulation. They have washed their robes and made them white in the Blood of the Lamb.



Isaiah 29:14
therefore, behold, I will again do wonderful things with this people, with wonder upon wonder; and the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the discernment of their discerning men shall be hidden.”

Revelation 21:3
And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.




Those who have been born of God do not sin, because God’s sperm abides in them; they cannot sin, because they have been born of God

1 John 3:9
Anyone having been born of God does not practice sin, because His seed abides in him, and he is not able to continue sinning, because he has been born of God.

John 1:13
who were born not of blood, nor of will of flesh, nor of will of man, but of God.

Sperm is the Greek word that, as you might imagine, describes the DNA material used in reproduction. In other words,

It is not the children of the flesh who are the children of God, but the children of the promise who are counted as having God’s DNA.

Romans 9:8 NRS
So it is not the children of the flesh who are God’s children, but it is the children of the promise who are regarded as offspring.



John 3:1
You Must Be Born Again. Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews.

John 3:3
Jesus answered him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God.”

John 3:7
Do not marvel that I said to you, ‘You must be born again.’




The idea? That Christ was slain in eternity past–before anything was- before any sin had been done by a single human. The Cross of Jesus was such a cataclysmic and traumatic event within nature-time-space that it sent ripples that echoed in both directions,
                                                                                                         
Impacting eternity past and eternity future a temporal event that manifested itself eternally.

2 Corinthians 4:18
while we don't look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporal, but the things which are not seen are eternal.
                                                                                                                     
"Distinction between the Holy and the common"

Leviticus 10:10
and that you are to make a distinction between the Holy and the common, and between the unclean and the clean; The understanding of the wise man is always expanding and increasing its stores, because his ear is open to instruction, and his ability grows by wholesome exercise

God Created Adam and Eve to rule over all of  the Earth –They were not created to be slaves to God Almighty  but to rule on His behalf over the other living things.
In the Garden Adam and Eve had no knowledge of Evil, under the protection of God they were Not vulnerable to the enemy they only knew the goodness of God Almighty, so the temptation to take what God commanded and had, held no real allure



 
We all sin. That is a fact. But Paul teaches that God promises not to count those who have his DNA as sinners – instead they are God’s children.  In other words, those who desire and allow the Spirit of God to live within them, become a new race of people. The Spirit changes our spiritual DNA. We take on the DNA of Christ. Sadly, we still make mistakes, still miss the mark, still sin, but God sees the DNA of Christ within us and does not count our sins against us.

In addition, the DNA of Christ, like a virus, mutates our spiritual DNA to become more and more like Christ. We call this sanctification in theology class and it is the work of the Spirit. In a way, the Spirit of God is the DNA of Christ joining itself to us and transforming us into usable vessels.


Isaiah 53:1-3
Who has believed our message and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed? He grew up before him like a tender shoot, and like a root out of dry ground. He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him, nothing in his appearance that we should desire him. He was despised and rejected by mankind, a man of suffering, and familiar with pain. Like one from whom people hide their faces he was despised, and we held him in low esteem.

Matthew 27:13
Then Pilate asked him, ‘Don’t you hear the story they are bringing against you?’ But Jesus made no reply, not even to a single charge to the great amazement of the governor”

Isaiah 53:8-9
By oppression and judgment. he was taken away. Yet who of his generation protested? For he was cut off from the land of the living; for the transgression of my people he was punished. He was assigned a grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death, though he had done no violence, nor was any deceit in his mouth.

Jesus was deprived of justice (“judgment”) and was killed. Israel was not “cut off from the land of the living.” It is also clearly untrue that Israel “had done no violence, nor was any deceit in his [Israel’s] mouth.” At times, the prophets charged that our people had morally descended below the gentiles

The Gospels declare that Jesus’ grave was with both the wicked and the rich, as he died with sinners and was buried in a rich man’s tomb.

1 Peter 1:23
since you have been born again, not of perishable seed but of imperishable, through the living and abiding word of God;

Praying that you all might come to know Him More this New Year to come.




Bless You
