AWAKE, ARISE, AND TRIUMPH

THE LORD
Greetings precious saints of God, brothers and sisters in Christ, in the Kingdom of God. If you are not in Christ (born again, saved) get saved (from the wrath of God for rejecting His Son) right now and enter the Kingdom of eternal life, of light leaving eternal death (separation from God and Hell for eternity) and darkness with torment.
Romans 10:9 (NJB)
9 that if you declare with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and if you believe with your heart that God raised him from the dead, then you will be saved.
As we move forward, please take a moment to share these teachings as widely as possible, forsake being ashamed of the gospel. Thank you for sharing. The beautiful featured picture today was taken during a wonderful road trip last October (2020) with our friends Pastor Tom and Lori Duperry.
Before we move into our primary Isaiah text, I believe the Lord would have me once again review a separate Bible Truth. There is myth in the Church that everything is up to God and completely controlled by God and are just haplessly bobbing along through life. Dear ones, we always have a part and until we do our part, He will not move. He will not under any circumstances violate our freewill doing our part and His. All things are done by faith, in love, without doubt, led of the Holy Spirit. This is everywhere in Scripture but today we will review only the one verse to follow.
1 Peter 5:5 (KJV)
5 Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.
So, what is our part? It is to submit to our elders (spiritual and physical), submit one to another, cloth ourselves with humility, and put of pride. When we do, Grace (Holy Spirit) is released into our lives, this is the Favor of God. However, if we refuse to submit to those in authority over us, and as love (agape) demands, or continue in pride the Grace of God will not be present in our lives in fulness and perhaps not at all. Nobody and nothing, not even God or His Word, effects our lives as much as we do with our decisions, thoughts, and words. The most powerful things in our lives is our thoughts and our words, period. Now, let’s turn our attention to our primary Bible text taken from the Bible Book of Isaiah. Please read it aloud, yes, out loud. You do want to build faith and please your Heavenly Father, right?
Isaiah 6:1-4 (KJV)
1 In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple.
2 Above it stood the seraphims: each one had six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly.
3 And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory.
4 And the posts of the door moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke.
I don’t know about you but I have always found this passage to spark wonderful imaginations about Heaven and our Lord. Uzziah also known as Azariah was the 10th King of Judah and reigned fifty-two years. It appears to me that Isaiah saw the Lord Jesus on the Throne of Heaven. Of course, at that time He was not Jesus but the second person of the co-equal God commonly referred to as the Lord of Hosts (see verse three) or the Word (Genesis 15:1). The phrase “Word of the Lord” occurs 258 times in the KJV of the Bible of which 245 are in the Old Testament. Generally speaking, in the Old Testament this phrase to talking about the Lord speaking to them and in the New Testament it is referring to a speaking or declaring of the written (Logos) or spoken (Rhema) Word of God. The One we know as Jesus, the Christ, our Lord and Savior is the Word and at the direction of the Father has brought us the whole of Scripture. He, Jesus, is the voice of God the Father, the Word. He is the One who the Father used to bring about all things created.
Ephesians 3:9 (KJV)
9 And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ:
Revelation 4:11 (KJV)
11 Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.
These Scriptures from two different witness is not talking only about this current creation of physical things but all things created spiritual and physical, even Heaven itself. Lord willing, I will pick up right here tomorrow.
2 Chronicles 20:20 b (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, doubt it not, 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).
