" BUILD YOUR KINGDOM HERE "
As I sit and ponder in prayer for this message today my spirit became infused with the realization that the time
for the coming of Christ is so close at hand and yet the world both christians and non christians have drifted off in a self-centered world of their own, so far away from hearing the cry of the Holy Spirit calling the Bride to stand and be prepared for our soon coming king.
Romans 8: 11
But if the spirit of Him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, He that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by His spirit that dwelleth in you.
Recently in prayer the Lord allowed me to invision a multitude of christians, each one crushed under a heavy load of burdens they graciously try to carry on their own, and this has become the normal lifestyle of most of God's children... we tend to try to bear our burdens alone until we get so loaded down that we crumble under the weight and cares of the world around us...
I began to see in the spirit that this is a tool that the enemy is using to keep the body of Christ in bondage and it is a wedge that tears them away from the presence of God like a wall that is erected to keep them out of the Holy Throne Room of God.
I want you to think about what happens when you carry something heavy either weighted on your back or shoulders or in your arms and hands, what happens over a period of time is that the weight begans to cut off the circulation which means no blood flow, now blood represents life to our bodies, and also blood represents the life of our spirit, now when the blood flow gets cut off in our natural bodies, it begans to get numb, we have no feeling, therefore, as the Holy Spirit revealed to me, when we choose to carry those heavy burdens of everyday life over and over again we get burdened down with heavy burdens that cut off our spiritual blood flow and we began to feel the effects of that as our spirit becomes numb, and far away from the presence of the Lord, because we are too carried away with the problems and burdens of this life, and it begans to be a wall to keep us out of the presence of God.
For you see in God's presence there is no fear, there is no darkness, for the Lamb Jesus Christ is the peace and the Light.
Surely if God by His eternal Glory can Light up the Heavens with His countenance, he can shine upon you His peace and Light.
Therefore you need not depend on your own limited strength and endurance.
Romans 8:26
Likewises the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities for we know not what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.
Bring the struggles within your life and your soul to God.
It is a pure movement of your faith that says God I give it all to you...It then becomes not a personal struggle but a release of your faith in a God who cares for you.
The answers to your prayers shall come as you feel the freedom of releasing them to a God who is able to bare all of your burdens.
Romans 8:27
Now he who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God.
How many times do we pray for the will of God in our lives and yet we still ask and wonder if we are truly walking in it.
Well can we just take God at His word.
For when we come to Him, truly releasing our burdens and all of our own desires and admonitions, when we truly release them into the hands of Christ, we have a feeling of weightlessness, a feeling of overwhelming peace and rest because we understand and know that God is in control of all things in our life.
Romans 8:28
And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.
How does this happen? How do we get to this place?
Jesus Christ is calling us to labor in the vineyard of prayer.
We cannot partake of His presence until we have spent time sitting at His feet. It is in His presence that there is fullness of joy.
If we would learn that first and foremost in our everyday life we need to spend time with the King of Kings.
When life brings unpleasant circumstances our way we should all the more desire to be in His presence, for when He is in the midst, all circumstances pleasant and unpleasant began to work in harmony together to bring us blessings at the work of His hands.
For He does not shield us from hardships but He does bring us out in victory and allows us to be strengthened by the vey darts the enemy has thrown our way.
Romans 8:37
Yet in all things we are more than overcomers through Him who loved us.
Oh !!! my children the hour is late and the time for sleeping and slumbering is past.
It's time that we gird upon us the armour of Truth and Righteousness and know that now the battle is in full array.
Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit saith the Lord.
Romans 15:13
May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
Romans 2:6
God will give to each person according to what he has done. To those who by persistence in doing good seek glory,honor and immortality, He will give eternal life.
We cannot fight the enemy in our own fleshly strategy.
It is time for us to stop!!! and listen to the calling of the Holy Spirit.... for we have allowed our heavy burdens and our own standards and strategies to harden our hearts and close off our ears from hearing His call.
Proverbs 29:1
He who is often rebuked, and hardens his neck, will suddenly be destroyed and that without remedy.
1 Corinthians 12:7
But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal.
1 Corinthians 2:12
Now we have recieved, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.
2 Corinthians 4:17
For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory.
It's time for us to walk away from compromise, for it is bringing the church to defeat.
Rise up today and lay claim to the power that is in you, stop allowing the devil to weigh you down, you know what to do.
Lay it all down at His feet, walk into his presence and allow His spirit to rain down upon you peace and restoration.
Stop running on your own thinking you can carry the load by yourself...
Release your faith in a God who will not fail you and walk in the peace and rest of the power of the Holy Ghost.
Trust in your God once again and reveal yourself in all of your weaknesses and strengths and know that all that is committed to His hands is sure to recieve His promise.
It is my prayer today that as you read this message you will feel the presence of the almighty God upon you, release it all to Him and allow His wisdom and strength overshadow you and His peace rest upon you now in Jesus Mighty Name!!
