The Transformation of
Our Mind
Recently we began to address the existence and power of
the subconscious. In our drive to walk as free sons,
whom Christ has truly set free, we must be able to see
every aspect of our being set free from the world and
the conditioning upon the subconscious brought by the
years of exposure to the thinking of this age. Paul
struggled with this very thing....Romans 7:19:
"wherein the good that I wish to do I do not do, but I
practice the very thing I would not do..." -the
activity of his subconscious was still at play. Before
journeying on in this pursuit of the re-training of the
subconscious, I would like to present to you something
further to think upon. We must, without question,
recognize the need we have to change, or we will not
have the drive necessary to overcome the obstacles that
we will face.
The
limitation you have known exists only within your mind
for you have been given everything pertaining to life
and godliness. The doors to the jail cell have never
existed but within your mind; and these are days where
the light has come and revealed the dark and hidden
recesses of illusion. We are seeing the end of one
chapter, and the beginning of a new one, but first, the
old must be put away. It is time to enter into the
unlimited and eternalness of our existence - according
to the Order of Melchezidek - with neither beginning nor
ending of days.
And
the Ancient of Days came, and judgement was passed in
favor of the saints of the Most High - and they took
possession of the Kingdom.
The
following are highlights from a word which came from the
Lord on March 2nd:
Because of the various teachings and misconceptions of
what God is doing, you will have believers in this day
looking for a fulfillment that may not be what God is
bringing forth. Without a deep change of thinking and
flexibility, there will not be many who will make it out
of the Christian religious path into that which God is
bringing forth in this day. To the new "ager" what God
is bringing forth will appear religious, and to the
religious, it will appear as new age.
The
Christian has become so set in his ways concerning his
doctrines of belief, that the new wine of this day may
appear unpalatable, and the casual Christian will not
have the ability truly recognize His appearing. Those
who will comprise the army of the Lord in this day will
not be composed of many from the religious ranks - not
to say that there will not be 1 of a 1000 as the
scriptures state, but it may well be the harlots and
publicans that make it into the kingdom first. It was no
different in Christ’s day, for it was to the harlots and
publicans that He eventually spoke and saw the greatest
degree of change happen.
In
the days when Christ walked, the Pharisees, who were
the religious of that day, were those to whom Jesus
first approached. And it was the pharisees and religious
of that day who looked for the fulfillment of their
concept of the Messiah who was to come, who missed the
hour of their visitation. When Christ came preaching the
kingdom and casting out devils, not only did the
religious not accept this as the expected fulfillment of
the Messiah, but they referred to Jesus as one who had a
devil.
It
is no different in this day except the "religious"
comprise millions more than walked the earth in Christ’s
day. People are looking for a fulfillment of their
concepts, and they will not recognize what it is God is
doing. More than that, they will persecute the very
thing God is doing.
It
is the scripture about a new garment being put on an
old wineskin, for the new wine will burst the skin.
And so, without the flexibility of change, the new wine
of this day will not be accepted by the Christian
believer, for there is a reproach on the new thing God
is doing, because to those without eyesight, it will
look like, "new age", devil power, or any other term of
the mystical, for this is the time that God is
bringing together the realm of the physical, and the
realm of the spirit. And God has carefully made
a point in attaching a reproach to what He is bringing
forth. Unless you see by revelation, you will most
assuredly reject what He is doing.
We
find perhaps the most accurate fulfillment of the
scripture concerning the wedding feast -- When
the king sent out his servants to invite those who were
to come, (which could be compared with the religious
of this day, or those who love God, but are just locked
in - they still comprise the ranks of the religious)
their response was that they were too busy, and some
even beat those servants. The king then commanded His
servants to go to the highways and bring in anyone so as
to fill the room full. It was only after the room was
filled, that the king then inspected those which came to
see if they had made adequate preparation to be there,
otherwise he cast them out. Some may believe that
scripture speaks of the Christian evangelism of the last
100 years, but that scripture speaks of the time when
the wedding feast was ready, which is only the time of
the end, and at that time the believers and the called
and chosen were the ones to whom the King sent his
servants, and it was they who refused to come.
Those who will walk into this new day of the Kingdom
will be comprised of those whom the Lord has prepared
from many walks of life, and who do not have the mental
conditioning and burdens which would prevent them from
accepting the new wine of what God is bringing in this
hour.
"It
is more difficult for a camel to pass thru the eye of a
needle, than a rich man to enter the kingdom".
This scripture speaks not of the rich man who is rich by
way of earthly means, but it is those who believe they
have become rich, and have need of nothing, who have the
perception and depth of understanding of God’s ways, who
will reject the very thing He is set to bring forth. It
has always been a pattern throughout history, that the
very last movement that walked with God, will persecute
the next level that God brings forth, because there is
not the ability to change and move forward.
Without a deep transformation of the mind, no man will
enter into the portals of the kingdom. And the lesser
amount of baggage you have, the more able you will be to
drop the old, and embrace the new, and allow God to
transform your mind.
To
the believer who has "done his homework", and embraced a
deep working of the cross in his life, to that believer
will be a preparedness to embrace the new. The proof as
to who has done his homework before the Lord, will
become manifest to all. This also refers to the
scripture of the wise and unwise virgins. Both
were called of God, but only one did his homework before
the Lord, and had the much needed "oil" in his vessel,
or the "ability" to see, the hour of visitation.
God
will call 1 of a 1000, but it is not written in stone
whether that 1 of a 1000 will be able to make this
transition into the age of the Kingdom. |
