Beyond Faith
Believers of God from all Religions or "Faiths", as some
prefer to be known, are now facing a time where to
believe and to trust is not enough. We have not
appropriated enough of His essence to project us into
the next phase of existence on this plane, only enough
to try and maintain it, and at this stage of our
evolution, to maintain what we have without advancing is
to lose ground. I know that it is prudent to maintain
what you have but you also must move with what you have
less stagnation and passivity set in. We must not be
like the foolish and unwise virgins, nor let the
Laodicean spirit of this age have free course in our
life. We cannot become as our predecessors and not take
advantage of the open door before us. We cannot afford
to choose not to take advantage of what could have
already been acquired even with the limited amount of
knowledge and awareness that we now possess. Sitting and
waiting for something to happen is not faith, it is
passivity . To have faith is to rely on your beliefs
until you can acknowledge what you are believing for by
the absolution of knowing and experiencing it .
Passivity is to sit and wait for something to happen
that would motivate you to keep on believing, instead of
being motivated to make something happen yourself.
Even though some of us have journeyed past the bonds of
Christian and religious doctrine, the depth at which
these bonds exist has caused us to still be subjected to
the same reactions that held us in bondage as
beforehand. This continues because we have to get beyond
religion and doctrine and purge ourselves from the
conditioning of humanity as a whole. It is impossible to
please God in the flesh. This doesn?t mean that we are
forever bound by the limitations of this flesh which our
spirits are encased in. What it means is that we
determine our existence by the essence of our spirit
instead of the conditioning and limitations of the
flesh.
The
roll call of faith is filled with men of God that have
gone before us of whom the scriptures state that we are
not worthy to be numbered with. They have moved on in
their journey to other planes without seeing and
experiencing the things that are now being made
available to us. These are those times which the old men
dreamed of and the young men saw visions about. They
shared these experiences with us through the written or
spoken word, and through spiritual impartation and
revelation. There is a time and place in eternity where
the Sons take the throne and rule and reign with the
Father. A time when the past, present and future merge
in a fusion of God?s energy that causes the promises
from the past to explode into the fulfillment of the
present and continues on throughout eternity.
It
is easier to sustain a religion or a faith by having an
unattainable goal which requires a blind obedience
without a working faith that produces results. It keeps
you in bondage with that old "pie in the sky" mentality
that causes you to accept delay and non- fulfillment as
part of God?s plan and purpose. This is done to assure
that those in "power" keep their followers imprisoned in
an aura of dullness rather then to believe and come into
knowing that every promise in the book belongs to us and
it is ours to be had right now, Jehovah Jirah.
This does not apply only to the false shepard, but to
the false sheep as well. They willingly allow themselves
to be suppressed and restrained so that they will have
an excuse for not having to face God on their own.
Having faith for someone is believing to see the will of
God fulfilled in their life. Having patience with
someone is enduring their life process until it reaches
its own conclusion. A son of God takes faith that his
gifts will expedite the establishing of His kingdom on
this plane. A false son uses his gifts to enhance his
existence on this plane; such as Judas and Balaam.
Having faith for something is to take what has been made
real to you that you have not seen, yet believe without
an expiration date or time limit until it comes to past.
It is to believe without limitation or boundary -- to
believe that what has been promised will be fulfilled in
the course of God?s timing or through the intervention
of our prayers and intercession.
"I
believe, help my unbelief".
This makes our personal relationship with God the only
way that we can see our life quest be fulfilled. It can
only be fulfilled by each and every one of us having and
sustaining a personal relationship with God.
Interdependent with others who have this same pursuit,
yet independent of a need to rely on or be sustained by
each others humanity. We have been taught to look for
the second coming when all along it has been us. I can?t
believe that the one who I have been waiting on all this
time is me. It is also the same for you. The redemption
and redeemer that we have waited for us has already come
and is in us.
Beyond faith is to take what has been promised but not
yet seen and bring it into a relative working manner on
this plane through your eternal connection with the
Father and the proper linking with the eternal forces of
His will.
The
difference between just having faith and walking in
sonship can be compared to Elisha, who had enough faith
to believe that when Elijah would be caught up that he
would receive a double portion. After Elijah was caught
up it was time where Elisha could either continue to
just have faith and wait for something to happen, or do
as he did after crying out "My father, my father the
Chariots of Israel"! . It has always been stated in a
manner where all of the attention was being focused on
Elijah being caught up in a whirlwind. Now we must start
to see the importance of Elisha?s transition from just
having faith, to adding works or action with his faith;
which creates sonship. We must duplicate the impartation
which came from being in the presence of God that
created his permanent transition into sonship. Not
having known God on the level that Elijah had, he
subsequently addressed God in his initial encounter as
"where is the God of Elijah?" However from the moment he
channeled the energies of God for the first time as a
son in what we refer to as the miracle of the ax head,
he changed. From that moment on he has been united with
the Father in a oneness that never caused him to relate
to God from a third party situation ever again. This
once again highlights the importance of our pursuit of a
personal relationship with God. Even after he crossed
over, the synergism of his oneness with God and the
eternal existence of the energy of a oneness with God
caused a person who was dropped into his tomb as a dead
man to be revived.
There is nothing wrong with having faith, its just that
faith without works is dead. The works are the actions
we take along with our faith that is not content with
just believing , but to have the corresponding action
that causes things to happen right now. The faith that
the son of man will find on his return will be the faith
that has been created by the union of the sons with the
Father because of our personal relationship with Him.
Faith by itself leaves an option for delay -- Sonship
causes absolution because it aligns you with the ability
to only do the things that we see the Father do, and
only speak the things we hear the Father say. To have
faith is the permissive will of God -- Sonship is the
perfect will of God.
Faith overcomes, sonship conquers and eliminates. Beyond
faith is the Kingdom, beyond faith is sonship. By faith
we pursue a personal relationship with God, sonship is
the completion of that pursuit Faith is the victory that
overcomes the world, Sonship is the vehicle that ushers
in the kingdom.
It
is placement not position. You can take faith to be a
son, but only God can and does place us in the body as
He pleases. Many are called but few are chosen. Being
called can get you threw the door. Being chosen will
seat you at His right hand. A position is to desire a
place other than what God has for you. To be placed is
to be set in the body according to God?s will and plan
for your life. It is to be aligned in the eternal
synergism of God?s essence and omnipotence along with
the rest of God?s elemental?s and terrestrials that make
up His creation. Faith is like manna. Faith will get you
to the Kingdom, sonship will assure you entrance. Faith
without fulfillment has caused some of God?s people to
fall away because their faith was based on position not
fulfillment. Faith is not a duel to the death with
negativity and unbelief. It is a building block for sons
during their incubation period between the time of just
believing and -- coming into really knowing. To just
believe does not always make things happen. This is why
a lot of your so-called ministries of faith or faith
healers end up disappearing off the scene. You can take
faith to see something happen or to get something
started, but it takes the application of sonship to
bring it to pass.
Our
quest is for sonship, our goal is His perfect will, our
joy is to worship him in spirit and in truth, our reason
for existing is to bring forth his Kingdom on earth and
every other dimension, as it is in Heaven. |
