TEACHING AND PROPHETIC ARM – PART FIVE
Saturday – March 28, 2020, Nisan 3, 5780
Greetings to our dear and precious friends and partners of this Ministry and The Three Minute Word blog. God is so, so, good dear ones, and He is nothing but good. No bad thing in our life now or in eternity is the will of God. It is not the will of God that any perish now or after this life.
2 Peter 3:9 (KJV)
9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Whose choice is it to perish or not? If we are in any way perishing now or spend eternity in Hell, the ultimate perishing, we made the choices when there were clear Godly choices. Perishing has to do with being ruined, destroyed, suffering loss, or suffering death. Well where does all this awful stuff come from?
John 10:10 (KJV)
10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
So, the thief (demonic enemies) by deception bring stealing, killing, and destruction (perishing on one level or another) and Jesus made the way for abundant life, overflowing life. This life is not just being alive on the earth it is an abundant overflowing life in finances, health, and so on. Our life here is to mirror what it will look like in Heaven in spite of the fallen nature of the planet. The reason we don’t believe this is that it is not taught, taught right from the Bible dear saints. If it were not possible why would Jesus say, a just God say, the following.
Matthew 6:10 (KJV)
10 Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
Dear ones we are falling far short of the will of God and the primary reason is that something other than the Bible has been taught in Church for centuries now. Oh yes, I know they open the Bible and read various passages and pontificate on it for some period of time but it is watered down, perverted with unbelief, and failure (perishing) somehow justified as the will of God. Give me a break! Just how much stealing, killing, and destroying do you figure is going on in the lives of the people in Heaven? Short answer, zero! Then why are we tolerating it in our lives here in the earth? Is it possible for us to have the will of God operate in our lives in this earth? According to Jesus, the short answer is, yes! The will of God does not include stealing, killing, or destroying.
Matthew 16:19 (KJV)
19 And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
At salvation we receive the keys of the kingdom of heaven (God). What are we doing with the keys? Perhaps we are admiring them, and shouting praise and thanksgiving to God for them. But what are we doing with the keys? Are keys a decoration or a tool? Are these keys for now or the sweet bye and bye? The text makes it clear these keys are for now in the earth. I suspect many reading this have heard preaching or teaching on the subject of binding and loosing. As we look at this in the KJV of the Bible I want to make a couple of points and then I will move to other translations of this Scripture to further illuminate the Truth. One Truth is that we are able to bind or forbid what is already forbidden in Heaven and we are able to lose or give permission to what is permitted in Heaven. The second Truth is that these things we are to bind are only bound when we give the command or make the decree in faith. For example, a tornado will proceed unimpeded unless we issue a command for it to cease (like Jesus on the Sea of Galilee). For example, the loosing of healing power to restore one to health is also only released at our command or decree in faith. We can release our faith for the healing of another but that person must receive by faith the power of God to make them whole. Tornado’s and sickness are not part of our covenant and are forbidden, they are not present in Heaven. God’s Word translation puts it as follows.
Matthew 16:19 (GW)
19 I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven. Whatever you imprison, God will imprison. And whatever you set free, God will set free.”
We see in the Amplified translation that the activity must already be forbidden or permitted in Heaven.
Matthew 16:19 (AMP)
19 I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; and whatever you bind (declare to be improper and unlawful) on earth must be what is already bound in heaven; and whatever you loose (declare lawful) on earth must be what is already loosed in heaven.
Why are we slack concerning bringing the Covenant, the promises of God into our lives? It is not being taught and therefore we do not have readily available examples, testimonies, in our circle or Church. Sickness in our bodies and storms doing damage to the Kingdom of God (Heaven) are our responsibility to cast out and cast down. This may seem to be off track of what this series is about but to the contrary this Ministry is to bring Truth, awaken, and do its part in bringing clarity to the Church. The Power available to each person in the Church, the Kingdom of God is without limit!
John 3:34 (GW)
34 The man whom God has sent speaks God’s message. After all, God gives him the Spirit without limit.
Until our next publication, as a Bible Teacher and Prophetic Voice I speak this blessing over each and every one of you, receive it, believe it, and speak over yourself and your family by faith in Jesus name! Quit asking God to bless you, you are already blessed, you have the Blessing, give Him something to do by the words of your mouth. Once you know the will of God, decree the thing (Job 22:28, Isaiah 45:11, Mark 11:23). (The Blessing is the Holy Spirit) We have left God way to long with nothing to do in our
Numbers 6:24-26 (AMP)
24 The Lord bless you and watch, guard, and keep you;
25 The Lord make His face to shine upon and enlighten you and be gracious (kind, merciful, and giving favor) to you;
26 The Lord lift up His [approving] countenance upon you and give you peace (tranquility of heart and life continually).
