Things Are Listening

Modern quantum physics is discovering mysteries about the world around us that affirm very ancient teachings about the laws of the universe.
We typically think that God gave humans language for the purpose of communication, but this is not the primary purpose of words. 
The Bible teaches that God created humans in His image, which means, in our original created state, we would have been able to think, talk and act like Him.
Humanity lost connection with our original design when we decided to rebel against His perfect leadership.
But when God sent Jesus, His Son into the world to pay the penalty for humankind's rebellion, He restored us back into a relationship with our Good Designer!
Now, because of what Jesus has done through His death on the cross, each of us can experience daily interaction with God, our loving Father.
By following the Father's advice each day, our lives can find meaning and purpose. Each of us is designed to flourish in this world and accomplish great things for God and ourselves.
So, getting back to the purpose of language, God and people use can words to communicate ideas to one other, but the Bible teaches that God's first purpose for language, was to create things.
"In the beginning [of things] God said [by decree], 'Let there be [things]!' And the result was THINGS. (see Genesis 1)
"Therefore, be imitators of God, as dearly loved children, and walk in love..." Ephesians 5:1 CSB
This is a big verse! It tells us to imitate God by walking in LOVE. That means loving people the way God loves them. That, dear friends, will take a lifetime of practice!
But that verse also means we can imitate God by using language as He does. This also, fortunately, comes with more proficiency in a lifetime of practice.
Jesus, God's Son [the Word (John 1)], used words to communicate God's TRUTH and to release God's sovereign, creative power through Decree.
He was imitating the Father, not just to prove that he had power, but also to show His followers how we would rule the world in the age to come.
By decree, as royalty.
The AGE TO COME began with his death burial and resurrection! Indeed, it is NOW time for us to imitate Jesus the way Jesus imitates the Father!
Modern science has proven that your voice can release power to your environment. Those who farm or garden will attest that TALKING to your plants, or PRAYING for your crops will produce better results!
“The tongue can bring death or life; those who love to talk will reap the consequences.” (Proverbs 18:21, NLT)
The Bible is full of examples of people talking to animals, rocks, bushes and trees. Elijah shut up the heavens, Elisha split the river, and Jesus calmed the wind and the waves, by decree. 

Skeptics and many who worship science believe these Bible stories are merely fairy tales, but lately, Quantum physics brings those stories and teachings of the primitive church into the realm of scientific probability.

Speaking kind and loving words will open up a new reality of possibilities for you, and when those words are grounded in the truth (what you know in your heart to be true) the power from your words increases exponentially!
Moses was commanded to bring water from the rock by decree, but he disobeyed and smote the rock with his trusted staff. God was not happy about it. He really wants us to get this.

Early in the morning, as they were passing by, they saw the fig tree withered from the roots up. Then Peter remembered and said to him, “Rabbi, look! The fig tree that you cursed has withered.” Jesus replied to them, “Have faith in God.
Truly I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says will happen, it will be done for him. Therefore I tell you, everything you pray and ask for — believe that you have received it and it will be yours. And whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him, so that your Father in heaven will also forgive you your wrongdoing.”
Mark 11:20‭-‬25 CSB

BLOOD ROYALTY



If you are IN CHRIST then you must recognize that you have been born into a covenant elite bloodline family.

The difference between this elite bloodline family and the elite bloodline families of the Earth is the METHOD of birth. Your birth is not a GENETIC birth. Your birth is, in essence, SPIRITUAL from above. It is an ADOPTED birth. It is a CHOSEN birth.

You discovered yourself to be an orphan who was presented with the choice of adoption into an elite royal family, the family of God, and you said, "YES, I ACCEPT."  You  ACCEPT that you are ACCEPTED.

This birth happened through a mixture of volition and faith.

You understood that it was the desire, the will, of Father God from the eternity past to create an elite bloodline for all humanity to escape the polluted Adamic bloodline. It would be through the shedding of untainted blood, through the bloody tortured death of his perfect firstborn Son, Yeshua. This was an act of good faith toward humanity on their part.

By accepting his offer of adoption, whether or not you knew it, you came into COVENANT with the Creator of all things, who is above all things, who is before all things and who knows all things.

There is no one above him. There was no one before him. There is no one who can instruct him or tell him anything he doesn't know.

You may have accepted his offer of New Birth out of desperation, or you may have come to understand that it was a logical choice. It was your opportunity to reverse every curse in your life that came through your genetic line.

You may have seen that you would be stepping into a higher plane, into a life of royalty.

You may have understood these things at the point of your decision to accept God's free gift of salvation through Jesus Christ. Or maybe you didn't comprehend all of that, but now you do.

You are growing in your understanding of who you are, of what you are. You are being cultivated like a barren vine cut out of the wild, being grafted into a living vine that produces the best fruit.

You see now that you are more connected to this new family than the family of your first birth. You see now that all the components of your destiny are contained in the seed of God, the nature of God, that is within you from the time you said YES to Christ. There is nothing to do, on your part, except REMAIN in him and DRAW LIFE from him.

You want to dedicate your life to research and discover more and more about who is this God and who you have become in Him. But your education will not change your status in the family. What you know you must use to help educate others so that they can enjoy every benefit of living in this royal elite bloodline, connected to LOVE.

You must have by now discovered that God is LOVE. His motivation to grow his family and to bestow rich blessings upon every member of his family is LOVE.

You cannot, you will not ever fully comprehend the depth, the breadth, the width, the height of this LOVE. But you have come to a place of REST and LIVING FAITH. You are CONTENT and have PEACE within this BELIEF, and no person or circumstance will ever shake you out of it.

WHAT IS THE SPIRIT SAYING TO THE CHURCHES?

 Do you attend a “listening church?”


We know how critical it is for each of us to learn to HEAR what the Spirit is saying so that we can enjoy the status of "favored" believers and avoid the pitfalls of life that are unavoidable to those who walk in darkness. 


How much more important is it that the CHURCHES learn to hear and obey God’s voice?


I have been in a number of staff or board meetings where decisions are made that affect the direction of the church (which of course affect the lives of many individuals and families) which begin and/or end with a hurried, token prayer (thank you God, please bless our plans, guide and direct us), or sometimes not even prayer at all. There is no waiting on God the Holy Spirit to get the mind of Christ. 


Many churches never take the time to wait on God to RESPOND. The people are too busy--their schedules are too packed full. An hour and a half that is spent in church  is never enough time to allow God’s spirit to work beneath the surface of their lives because, even during the prayer, worship and sermon, their minds are anxiously racing.


In Revelation chapters two and three, there are exhortations and promises given by the Spirit of Jesus to seven churches in what is now the nation of Turkey. Each exhortation is summed up with these same words: "He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches." Jesus brings a stern warning to the backslidden churches; Repent or else. It would seem that these churches did not heed these communications, because none of these churches exist today. 


I have been in meetings when the Holy Spirit clearly impressed the group assembled, and all who were there agreed that the message was from the Lord. Perfect unity. This rarely happened when we were unwilling to ask and wait for His input. It never happened when we settled for a “majority vote.”


There is much comfort in hearing the voice of the Holy Spirit to an assembly (as “discernment” and not an audible voice), as much as clearly hearing him in one’s personal prayer closet. The group always found that it has been worth the extra time to tarry, and also when members agree to fast and pray when making critical or controversial decisions.. 


He who has ears to hear (raise your hand!)--LET HIM HEAR!
