UPON THIS ROCK I WILL BUILD MY CHURCH
This needs to be displayed for another building stone. A nail in a sure place.
Have you ever wrote a book ? I'm thinking that if I write a book , what I'm seeing in my mind is what I'm trying to put on paper. When the book has been finished I can read it and "see" what I was seeing during the writing.
When someone else reads my book they envision as they read, and probably come close to some of the things I was seeing as I wrote, but unless they can get into MY mind they can never experience ALL of what I envisioned as I wrote.
So, to understand the Bible we must be in the mind of God. This is called revelations...
Deuteronomy 29:29 The secret things belong unto the Lord our God; but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of this law.
MATTHEW 16:13-19 When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, He asked His disciples saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am? And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias or one of the prophets. He saith unto them, But whom say YE that I am ? And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. And Jesus answered and said unto Him, Blessed art thou Simon Barjona: for FLESH and BLOOD hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. And I say ALSO unto thee, that thou art Peter, and upon this rock ( REVELATION) I will build My church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it ( the church built on revelation knowledge ). AND I will give unto thee the KEY of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou ( the church built on revelation knowledge ) shalt bind on earth SHALL be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt LOOSE on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
Isaiah 28:9 Whom shall He teach knowledge? And whom shall He make to understand doctrine? Them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts.
1st. Corinthians 2; 14-16 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them because THEY ARE SPIRITUALLY DISCERNED.
1st. Corinthians 2;16 For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that He may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.
1st. Corinthians 2;10 But God hath revealed them unto us BY HIS SPIRIT; for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.
This is also " The Water of the Word ". 1st John 5:7,8 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water ( revelation knowledge ), and the blood : and these three agree in one.
Ephesians 5:25,26 Husbands, love your wives even as
Christ also loved the church, and gave Himself for it; that He might sanctify and cleans it with the washing of water by the Word ( with the revelations brought forth by the Word ).
Revelations 22:17 And the Spirit and the bride say,Come. And let him that heareth say,Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life ( revelation knowledge ) freely.
John 3:5,6 Jesus answered, Verily,verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water ( revelation knowledge ) and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit .
When I was getting into the Lord he gave me a hunger for His Word. I was obsessed.
If there was something in the Word that I didn't understand, I would immediately go into fasting and prayer for the understanding. As I was learning more and more, I came up on scripture that seemed to contradict itself. Immediately I went into fasting and prayer. It was only a few moments and the Lord spoke to me and said: " Forget EVERYTHING you have heard from preachers and teachers, and HEAR what the SPIRIT is saying to the church ". Well, it took awhile to get into the habit of hearing God instead of men, but HALLELUIAH it was worth it !!!
I encourage each of you to diligently seek the revelations of the Word !!! KNOW the mind of God.
There was a time when I was anointed 24/7 that a man came to me and had a bible verse he didn't understand so he asked me to explain it. So I read the scripture and opened my mouth, and the explanation came forth. When I got through, I looked at him and said " I didn't know that ". Soon as I said that, we were both rolling in the floor doubled over in Holy laughter. We rolled on the floor for quite awhile. Then later, I found this scripture : Psalms 126:2 Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing: then said they among the heathen, The Lord hath done great things for them. There was a lot of people around, I guess they thought us to be a bit peculiar.....
PEACE AND LOVE in the HOLY GHOST...
