AWAKE, ARISE, AND TRIUMPH

WE HAVE HEARD THIS BEFORE
Greetings dear and precious brothers and sisters in Christ. God is so good to give us His Word, it is not hide from us, the children of God, in the least. We can know the Truth of Him and how we relate to Him, nothing held back.
2 Corinthians 4:3-4 (KJV)
3 But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:
4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
For the lost (those without salvation) the gospel is hid not because God has hide it, or that He has chosen some and not others. The Truth is that they have loved the darkness and allowed the “god of this world” to blind their minds.
John 3:19 (KJV)
19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
As we move forward towards our Bible Study for today please take a moment and share this teaching as widely as possible. The featured picture is a stock picture to give some representation of Jesus in Heaven at the right hand of the Father. Now let’s turn our attention to our primary Bible text and read it aloud, yes, our loud.
John 20:17-19 (KJV)
17 Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.
18 Mary Magdalene came and told the disciples that she had seen the Lord, and that he had spoken these things unto her.
19 Then the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.
As we have been discussing for many days now, Jesus is fresh from the grave and He encounters Mary Magdalene just outside the tomb as He is about to ascend to the Father with His own precious sinless Blood. This Blood will be (at that time) and is now (looking back) applied to the Mercy Seat of Heaven and speaks for eternity of our redemption.
Hebrews 9:12 (KJV)
12 Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.
I now want to return to our discussion of at least some of the Words spoken by the Father in the restoration of Jesus again as God. Remember, Jesus is now fully man and He is fully God. Jesus (as the Word and other titles) has always been the second person of the co-equal Triune God and was restored to that position upon His resurrection. On His Resurrection however Jesus is now fully man, with a physical body (bone and flesh). As man He is our advocate, our Heavenly Intercessor, and our High Priest. As the second person of God, He has the same spiritual body as in eternity and functions as our King, and our Lord. He is our brother, the first Son, and the Head of the body. We are the body of Christ, the Anointed persons in the earth to function just as He did in the earth and now with restored authority operate in the greater works. Now, I will return to our text in the Book of Hebrews and let us be reminded that we have heard these Words before.
Hebrews 1:8-9 (KJV)
8 But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom.
9 Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
Now see what the Psalmist prophesied centuries before.
Psalm 45:6-7 (KJV)
6 Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: the sceptre of thy kingdom is a right sceptre.
7 Thou lovest righteousness, and hatest wickedness: therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
Consider the following.
Hebrews 1:13 (KJV)
13 But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool?
And again, see what the psalmist prophesied centuries before.
Psalm 110:1 (KJV)
1 The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.
Isn’t the Word of God just so wonderful? God is so good. Lord willing, I will pick up right here tomorrow.
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).
