From the Desk of Doctor Paul ..."Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows." James 1:17
"Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence? If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths, you are there. If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast." Psalm 139:7-10
"The lamp of the Lord searches the spirit of a man; it searches out his inmost being." Proverbs 20:27
Where would we be without the precious Holy Spirit? If He were absent from earth, not a single soul could be added to the Lamb's Book of Life, since no man can come to the Father, unless he is drawn by the Third Person of the Trinity.
He is our Standby, the One Who takes hold together with us, against our infirmities and other enemies. The Power Agent will never speak of Himself. Instead, His job description is clearly defined in the Word. Glorifying Jesus is at the top of the list. As a Gentleman, Heaven's Representative won't force the Father's will on anyone. Instead, He awaits our permission to redeem, restore, reconcile and bless. The free moral agency of man is meticulously guarded and honored. However, the Holy Spirit nudges, prompts and pricks, anticipating our yieldedness to the Glory.
What else does He accomplish, as the Believer moves forward on destiny's highway? Revealing, or making alive, the Word, quickening mortal bodies, empowering the Bride, encouraging, comforting and manifesting the Father's intent are included in His acts. The Holy Spirit is the Christian's telephone line, or link, to the Throne Zone, God's heart and blueprint...individual and corporate.
In reality, we need not miss the mark on a single score. Heaven's Public Relations Agent is incredibly dedicated to our success. Everything touched must prosper, be that a fevered brow or decayed corpse, as intimacy with Dad promotes prolific unveilings from the Throne Room. The very Power that raised Christ from the dead abides on the inside of the Family. Consequently, nothing is impossible on our journey.
Several days ago, He spoke to my heart. "Paul, the more time spent in the Word and Glory's Presence, the greater will be one's sensitivity to that still, small Voice. Discernment, conviction and Unction will flow more freely than ever, as one sows unto the Spirit. Desires always follow attention. Speaking forth that which is heard during Our fellowship will bring into tangibility the unseen." How true that is!
As previously stated, whatever becomes more real will have our attention, since influences dominate and control. When a Christian meditates on Covenant, every facet of the Word comes alive, not unlike a life-containing seed, producing fruit.
All begins with a morsel of life. Inherent within each word is its own DNA. In charging up man's spirit, there's a hearing on the inside, an impartation of the Supernatural. The Church literally takes on the Father's essence and nature, while compulsions and other besetting sins lose their death grip, making way for newness.
It's imperative to emphasize this pertinent fact. From spirit to matter, nothing ever remains the same. All in existence is constantly changing, from the physical body, to relationships and ministry. For the Christian, that's a Glory to Glory endeavor, a process whereby we become more like Him in every department, from thoughts and actions, to results. All this culminates into those "greater works" and a manifestation of the sons and daughters of God.
Victory doesn't arrive by might, nor power, but by the Holy Spirit. We, indeed, wrestle not against flesh and blood, but demonic influences in high places. That is where actual battles are either won or lost. In order to be successful, situations, circumstances, and negativity of all forms must be captivated and transported into the arena of faith, Glory's Fifth Dimension, where they expediently yield to the finished work of Christ. Never permit the adversary to drag you into the sense realm. Within that venue, the Bride is like a fish out of water. We are no match for him there.
Perceptions are valid, but not always accurate. Judgment, or discernment, cannot be after the natural, but by way of the Holy Spirit. Again, when faced with a dilemma, go before the Throne. Allow the Revelator to do His job. Never fear a stone for a loaf of bread. You won't be deceived. Sustained joy and peace will underscore that which has been unveiled. Like shifting gears in an automobile, the Christian will find himself automatically deferring to that inward conviction.
Can you handle a few facts? Every good and perfect gift comes from the Father of lights. The Word declares that there's no variableness, neither shadow of turning, in His mindset. It's time for us to settle certain issues, once and for all. The Spirit will never beat up God's Kids. The Standby doesn't shame or evict Himself from Living Epistles, via sickness, poverty and death. Plainly stated, the Standby represents Christ in, and through, the Believer, quickening mortal bodies, imparting dreams and visions, empowering for the miraculous.
Whatever the Revelator accomplishes has two major purposes. The first is to glorify Jesus. The second involves blessing humanity and leading them to the Creator through the Son. He is with the Church as Heaven's Representative.
This is undoubtedly the Holy Spirit's greatest hour, a season for Him to shine through the Christian, both literally and figuratively. Prophetically, I can tell you that former enemies will be seen no longer. They're on the their way out. We're talking about a Glory to Glory progression here, where, in line with the Blood Covenant, sin and its byproducts are eradicated. The Believer is to visibly become the head and not the tail, as blessings come upon and overtake those embracing the Contract. Spirit, soul, body, finances and ministry will bear God's Personal thumbprint, as well.
For many, at this time of year, school has begun. Parents of millions have prepared for that fall transition by getting their children inoculated, spending bundles of money on new clothing, yes, even overpriced designer outfits. Tools, such as pencils, pens, paper and sophisticated calculators, to name a few, are procured before sending our little ones into the educational system.
Would we ever consider launching them off to the classroom in rags, ill-equipped for their respective challenges? Of course not! Neither would Papa. The only way God can shine as the Daddy He truly is, will always be by taking care of us, maintaining health, prosperity and Supernatural Power in the Family. Granting sufficiency in all pertaining to life and godliness is His priority.
We haven't been placed on this planet to fail, but to succeed and illuminate. Until that fact is finally settled in the soul of the Church, the Spirit of Truth will be tremendously hindered. In terms of the Covenant, let's become black and white. There are no shades in between. Each drop of the Redeemer's Blood emphatically speaks from the Mercy Seat. It doesn't make excuses or compromises. That Voice is heard within, affording revelation and direction, as you and I honor the Indwelling One.
Let's yield to His promptings now, as He takes center stage and encourages the Body!
"Patient Child, I have not been idle for the past two-thousand years. A work
has been promoted within the spirit of man, which is Heaven's candle, the
place wherein revelation is to abundantly flow and manifest in the form of signs,
wonders and miracles, the previously impossible. Just as Jesus proceeded from
the tomb, after three long days of abandonment, rejection, and a loss of
hopeless, so are you surfacing from that proverbial graveyard of dead and dry
bones, unbelief, discouragement, hopelessness, powerlessness, delayed answers and
remedies, inferiority, oppression, sickness and financial limitation. You,
Favored Child, are about to venture forth from that cemetery of stagnation and
inactivity, to a walk of resurrection, with a new spring in your step, a
confidence and boldness to read the Word, then listen to the Standby, after which a
gift of faith, or knowing, will propel the Body of Christ into the highways and
byways of life. Have you ever considered why I permitted the establishment of
large gathering places, like super malls, restaurants, movie theaters, civic
centers and other similar locales? The answer has a spiritual spin. During the
days ahead, a display of the miraculous will surely be more prolific in
regions of darkness and need, than in houses embracing a form of godliness, but
denying the Power thereof. As I've said on numerous occasions, pain attracts the
Glory. Where can one go to escape the Holy Spirit's influence and redemptive
intent? He was with Christ on that third day, and the majority of miracles were
almost solely performed amongst the people, on the streets and in homes and
other worldly places. I went where many of the religious never thought of
entering. As you gather together in My name, I will be present, via the Revelator,
imparting a battle plan. But you then must take the strategy, message and
Supernatural love packages of Glory to the four corners of this earth. The Standby
has been instructed to remove all slats and do away with silly boxes. No
longer will We be prisoners, but Deliverers, Comforters and Conduits of Covenant.
Prepare to be set free. The old is passing away!"
