Rev
5:1-14 The revelation of Jesus to
John.
Jesus by His Spirit is always
willing to give His revelation to
you, if you want to hear it.
Taken captive to Patmos, John taken
aside to hear what God had to say to
him.
God will allow circumstances to come
your life to help you to listen to
Him.
Pray that you will always be willing
to hear what He has to say to you.
Desire to rsvp.
V2-3 No one was strong enough to
open the book and break its seals.
Not needed physical strength but
spiritual strength, the character of
God, His Holiness.
For you to open and listen and
respond to Jesus requires a
Spiritual strength.
A strong desire to know Him and all
that He is. The Holy God.
V5 The Lion of the tribe of Judah,
the root of David has overcome and
is able to open.
What had He overcome but sin, death
and the world.
He had the power even as a man on
earth to rule over sin and death and
a desire to serve God.
The power is found by choosing to
live a Holy life without sin, death
and worldliness.
Make friends with the worlds’ ways
and we make ourselves an enemy of
God. Weakens life.
V9 He was found worthy because of
what He did.
Holiness works against all
ungodliness.
V 10 A priesthood to reign. A Holy
Priesthood, A Kingdom of God.
Holy character, priests who can see
through the eyes of the Lord.
Face to face with Him. Nothing evil
in their hearts. Godly people who
love to serve.
These folks will see through the
power of sin and the world, its’
motives and strategies. Only they
will see the prophetic clearly.
These will see the rebellion of
worldliness and sin and choose to
reach out to God.
Those with eyes to see, look for and
pursue Him for a touch of His
Holiness.
He loves to be loved because of His
Holiness, loves to be desired for
who He is.
He loves to be enjoyed, accepted and
honoured.
Loves the intimacy of the oneness of
His Holy Spirit with us.
He hates spiritual adultery,
flirting with the world and its half
hearted attempts to satisfy us. Does
not last.
He hates the things of the world
that steal away our love from Him.
Acting in a natural life rather than
the spiritual life robs Him of the
real life He gave us.
Marriage is to be shared openly and
freely same for Him with us.
Free to love and care for each
other, giving spiritual freedom
because He is Spirit.
Not a worldly freedom, not a sensual
freedom, that steals away the trust
and purity of love.
Love Him? Love His character? Love
His Holiness? Love His faithfulness?
Great
We are betrothed to Him, He is
faithful, we also are to be faithful
to Him.
There are no short cuts to finding
God and His Holiness; it will cost
you much.
The rewards are great. The
persecution and pain will be much.
WORTH IT? YES YES.
V14 Four living creatures cried out
Amen. Amen. Amen.
So be it. This is my will. My desire
is ‘Yes Lord Yes Lord. Your way,
Yahweh.’
“Be still for the presence of the
Lord is moving in this place”
Where are we going as a church?
First where have we come from?
We are not what we were this time
last year, we are different, so we
have handled change.
We have moved into something more of
the freedom of God.
Do not back off from the work and
change of the Holy Spirit.
Learn to flow with Him, we are going
the way of the Holy Spirit.
We are now attached to a movement of
Holiness, and such we shall be.
This is not legalistic or religion
but freedom of the Holy Spirit.
It is this Holiness that carries the
power to open doors that were not
able to be opened before.
Seals, agreements against us will be
broken because of the move of His
Holy Spirit amongst us.
Restrictions have already been
broken and a move of God is
happening, Satan has seen it.
We are opening up to more of His
presence, so this will reveal sin in
the church.
It will reveal worldly ways and
fleshly desires.
It will show who is and who is not
willing to fight through.
The freedom is more now than ever
before, if you have a problem with
this, it is with you and the Lord.
You have a problem with the Holy
Spirit, not the Church.
If you have not brought forth in the
meeting times together words to
encourage the body, prophesied as
from the Lord, built up the body
then you have no spiritual right to
condemn, criticise or speak badly
about His Church body.
I suggest you spend much time with
Father before you talk to others
about it.
He could save you a lot of trouble
and pain.
Will YOU help us to find this love
of and for His Holiness?
Help us to find His love and grace.
Help us in doing that which is born
of the Holy Spirit.
Help us to deal with any hindrances
to the freedom and Holiness of the
Lord we love.
Help us to fulfil the purposes of
why Jesus came, to destroy the works
of the evil one.
Help us to promote the Holiness of
God over the worldliness in the
church in this nation.
Help us to find ways of touching
this town and this area with this
God of Love.
Help us to support those who have
need of living the life of Christ in
the Church.
Supporting each other from being
drawn into the world and its ways.
Help each other from natural
reasoning to spiritual insight and
understanding.
Live the life of a born again
believer.
Are you really born again, letting
the Holy Spirit reign in your life?
Are you dedicated to serving God and
His Holiness?
Then say Yes to God and begin to see
things open up to you.
You will see seals of the past being
broken and a freshness of the Spirit
in our lives.
You will see clearly into the
prophetic view of God through His
eyes.
What a day for change for us all as
we say ‘YES LORD, YES LORD, YES
LORD.’
Living creatures here on earth
Father are saying to You, ‘Amen Amen
Amen.’
