AWAKE, ARISE, AND TRIUMPH

FROM THE PROPHETS CHAMBER – WEEK NINE
ABRAHAM ARISING PART FIVE
Greetings dear saints of God and welcome back to the Prophets Chamber. Please take a moment and share this Bible teaching as widely as possible to expand the reach of the Truth. I am writing this on the 31st of March, my left total hip replacement is tomorrow and this is being published on the 3rd of April. Speaking by faith I declare and give thanks to God for a perfect surgery with supernatural recovery and healing. Thank you for your prayers. God is so good dear ones. Now to our teaching from the Lord.
A righting is coming to our nation, judgment is coming upon the Church, the government and the others pillars (mountains, spheres of influence). Judgment always comes to the Church first.
1 Peter 4:17-18 (KJV)
17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?
18 And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?
Why does judgment start with the Church, the house of God? Hear the Master, the Head of the Church.
Matthew 16:18-19 (KJV)
18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
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.
Understand what verse eighteen is saying. This passage is very strong and very convicting. Hell, the kingdoms of this world cannot prevail against the Kingdom of God. When will we get serious Church? When will we exercise the authority (which is total) allowing God’s unbounded Power to flow? When Church, when? Now, let’s turn our attention to the topic of “Abraham’s Arising”.
On Monday the 1st of March as I sat with the Lord thinking about what He might give me for today, the following phrase rose up in my spirit from the Lord. “An Abraham is arising; indeed, many Abraham’s are arising.” Perhaps like you just now, I said, Ok, what does this mean? Very quickly the Lord brought a few things to mind. The first thing was the slaughter of the kings in the rescue of Lot. The second thing was that the Lord coupled this (“Abraham’s arising”) with David and the episode at Ziglag. Both were unnecessary however due to the mercy of God; all was recovered in both cases. Was it necessary that anything be lost? Short answer is “no”. Many things that happen in all of our lives were and are unnecessary. The next morning (March 2nd), the Lord reminded me that in the process of time Abraham brought forth Isaac (child of promise) by faith, faith in God. However, prior to that a tryst with Hagar (bondwoman) brought forth an Ishmael (child of the flesh). Hagar represents the world and Ishmael is the organized traditional Church, a snare to the people of God. A form of godliness lacking the Power of God.
Had Abram not brought his dad and Lot out of Ur of the Chaldees and then stopped in Haran. Then when Abram’s father died if he had not brought Lot with him yet again. All of this was delay upon delay to the plan of God which was to have a man (Abram, later Abraham) with whom He could make Blood Covenant, and bring forth the Messiah mankind needed so desperately. Abram at the behest of his wife Sarai (later Sarah) went into Hagar Sarai’s maid and father Ishmael. Have any of us turned from God and to the hand of man? The Apostle Paul refers to Ishmael as the child of the flesh but Isaac is the child of promise, of the spirit. In one, the flesh is death, in the other, the spirit, is life and peace. The world is dealing with the offspring of Ismael in a very big way to this day. He is the father of the Arabs, Islam, and the largest religion to challenge Christianity today. Listen to what the Lord said to Hagar about the child, Ishmael, she is about to bear.
Genesis 16:11-12 (KJV)
11 And the angel of the LORD said unto her, Behold, thou art with child, and shalt bear a son, and shalt call his name Ishmael; because the LORD hath heard thy affliction.
12 And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every man, and every man’s hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren.
Lord willing, I will pick up right here next Saturday.
2 Chronicles 20:20b (KJV)
20 … Believe in the LORD your God, so shall ye be established; believe his prophets, so shall ye prosper.
Until our next publication, as your Bible Teacher and a Prophetic Voice in your life 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!
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).
