Knowledge Vs. Revelation

There is a difference between having information and having revelation. Revelation brings forth life and life yields forth light. Through light you can see and move because you have life.

Life is the propeller of divine power that ignites the light of Christ. Life gives the impetus that causes the illumination of light for sight and motion.

Knowledge ought to stem from revelation. Knowledge minus revelation is short of the divine impetus to propel one to access and ignite opportunities to become what you ought to be.

The Voice Of God

To the carnal man, the voice of God is just a reverberation that frightens him. To the spirit man, the voice of God is musical in that he discerns the musical element in God’s voice.

God has always been musical but people tend to hear the sound rather than the expression of the voice in musical form because the carnal nature in man is unable to perceive beyond the surface.

Prophecy is, therefore, much more than hearing the voice of God on the surface.

Light & Life

Life is light. Where there’s life, there must be light. Life is the engine that propels the manifestation of light.

Light is revealed to enable man to see/perceive. Light is the divine lens that enables us to see beyond ourselves.

Sight comes when revelation is disclosed. Nonetheless, it takes the perception of sight to gain insight into the knowledge and wisdom of Christ Jesus to handle the life and the light of men.

The Access Key Of Humility

The heights of heaven are lower in the spirit than we think. The depths of Christ are vested higher than we envision.

Christ Jesus was exalted by His Father because He decided to descend to the lowest level of existence. That’s why He who descended is the same One who ascended. Ascension is not about going up in the physical. What happened on the Mount of Olives was just a manifestation of ascension for the benefit of the apostles.

Humility means that you go higher in the renewal of your mind such that you experience the heights of Christ. Going higher implies that you descend into the lowest level in order to set up a foundation of heaven in your life. The platform of your lowest foundation becomes the pivotal point of divine convocations with God.

Your mind in its renewed state has the ability to carry you beyond your wildest dreams and desires. Foundations are created in the higher zones of created reality. Your spirit man is located within the dimension of eternity that God ordained in your heart.

The lowest realm of your heart is the posture of humility that causes you to build your capacity until you can handle the hidden secrets of God that He ordained in Christ Jesus through the Holy Ghost who leads us.

The Meaning Of Heaven

Heaven is not a destination for you to proceed to. Heaven is a reality to live in. Jesus doesn’t talk about going to heaven. He speaks more about the kingdom and says that we are born again to see/enter the kingdom of God.

The kingdom of God is supposed to be inside of us and not outside.

Heaven is the realm of rulership in Christ and with Him, not a place. It is a realm of relationship with Christ from the perspective of dominion.

Dimensions In God

Multifaceted dimensions of God are interlocked to embody oneness. Foundations of Christ are within. Thus, your salvation ought to grow from within the posture of your heart to the climax of maturing at the summit of your heart. Subsequently, you begin to manifest the growth of your salvation from the summit of the heart to manifest in the natural. We build from within to without.

Paul had a supernova encounter of divine reality that was unlocked within the person of his being because he was functioning in the element of his pristine identity. Your identity is what grants you to access what is forbidden to talk about in earthly lingo because the earthly lingo tends to distort and pervert the purity of expressing heavenly stuff.

Faith is the gadget that switches on the divine codes of reality, which are encoded in Scripture. Faith takes you beyond the Scripture and transports you to the actual spirit behind the Scripture to unlock the intended purpose of what is in the heart and mind of God.

Ancient Paths

The summit of your heart is the epitome of experiencing the reality within before it manifests without. You cannot express what you have not experienced. Grace takes you back to the ancient paths in order for you to access the codes of unlocking divine realities. Grace precedes your walk and creates the necessary context. Grace clears the path and removes the obstacles of sin in order for you to walk into the realms of Christ.

Grace cannot take you forward without going backwards to establish you in the ancient paths. Ancient paths are divine landmarks established by God and actualised through the cradle of mankind.

Principalities

Principalities are systems where matters of earthly existence are moderated. Spiritual beings tend to occupy these realms in order to control the workings of the earth.

God ordained mankind in his pristine state to function within the spheres of principalities. He positioned man within the context of the principality dimension to augment the execution and manifestation of the supernatural dimensions of the kingdom.

God’s Throne

The throne of God is not a chair. It is the projection of His absolute power and authority which is derived from the reality of Who He is.

God the Father is the invisible element of the reality of this throne, seeing as the foundation upon which Christ is seated.

Codes Of The Past

You can only understand the future through the lenses of the past. All divine possibilities and opportunities can be discerned and appropriated in the present when you are able to decode the mysteries of the past.

You cannot walk in the fulfilment of the purpose of God without understanding and accepting the element of your past, because where you come from is part and parcel of the process towards your becoming.

The ancient paths are foundational blocks that cradle the growth of a person. The ancient paths constitute the substance of the law of God, which is projected by the Spirit or the principle of the law of life. Without the principle of the law of life, you cannot become whatever you are ordained to be.

The preceding principle of life is the eternal purpose of God, which fuels the essence of His eternal existence. Purpose is demonstrated through the convergence of the nature and person of God.

You must understand the reality of the future in terms of the past, for the future is cradled within the womb of the past. The past is there to reveal the opportunities and possibilities that God has hidden for you to access, through the process of the Spirit of His holy law. You can access the future depending on how adjustable your heart posture is.

The limitations of process that constitute the past are simply facts of insight into the depth of opportunities and possibilities that lie ahead within the construct of your heart posture. The distance between where you are currently and where you are meant to be isn’t time per se; rather, it’s all about your heart posture.

There are spiritual codes of the past that must be unlocked in order for you to access the dimensions of Christ within the progressive levels of becoming. The codes of your past refer to all experiences that you have had (good/bad). Each element of experience is a coded mystery that gives you access to the loads of divine reality, within which are the opportunities and possibilities meant for you. Faith is being able to discern the codes of your past and using the right password unlock the same to access your opportunities and possibilities.

See Beyond Time & Space

Purpose refers to God’s calling and ordination on a person’s life. It is what God ordained/consecrated/set apart in His creatures.

Purpose isn’t about reputation/fame but God’s calling on a person according to divine appointments. Divine purpose of God for man is vested within the spirit being of man.

Eternity is the dimension where purpose emanates and finds expression of relevance. Even within the dimension of time, purpose can only find expression of relevance so long as the natural sphere allows purpose to relate to eternity within the context of time and space. The relationship between purpose and eternity is what gives impetus to the life of purpose to spring forth.

Without eternity there can never be purpose as purpose can only exist within the realms of eternity. Purpose in light of eternity knows no limitation of time and space.

Within the context of time and space, purpose can only respond to the voice of eternity beckoning it to realign in tandem with the proceeding divine will. The Divine stirs up purpose within a man to call forth the treasures hidden within eternity to release divine benefits due to the human vessel.

God has deeply rooted the idea of eternity in every human heart; and every considerate man sees that all the operations of God refer to that endless duration (Ecclesiastes 3:14). It is only in eternity that man will be able to discover what God has designed by the various works He has formed.

For man to be able to walk in the fullness of the expression of purpose, he must first of all commune with the concept of eternity vested within his inner being. It’s the eternity within man that carries the essence of divine purpose.

The divine purpose vested within man cannot be subject to the limitations of time and space; yet, the Lord in His infinite wisdom ordained that His divine purpose hidden in the eternity realm within man’s inner being shall only find expression at His appointed time. Divine purpose is subject to the set appointed kairos of the Divine, not the contours of nature as determined by chronos.

Eternity is the secret/obscurity within which purpose/mystery of God is vested/hidden. Why is it hidden? Because of the fall of man, which rendered him incapable of perception of divine purpose, thereby, he’s fallen short of capacity.

God has set eternity into men’s hearts means that God has given men capacity to observe all His dispensations in the world within the limitation of the mystery of eternity in the hearts of men. Yet, there are still more mysterious works of God, which man hasn’t fully understood.

What Is Eternity?

The word eternity comes from a Hebrew word, ‘olam’, which means eternal, age-lasting or forever.

Eternity is the sphere and realms of creation outside of and unlimited by time and space. It is the realms where the Creator God originates, dwells and operates. It is the territory of spiritual creation.

Eternity is transcendence of the limitations of temporal durations and successions, where existence resides in one indivisible present. It is the mode of the timeless self- existence of the Absolute Ground of the universe.

Eternity refers to timeless existence – being or entity without change – and not mere everlastingness or permanence through time.

Eternity functions as the positive relation to time of that eternal God, who is King of all the eons. God is eternal in essence and exalted above time.

God has placed this forever essence in the heart of man. He created an eternal dimension into man’s being during creation when He breathed the breath of life (spirit) the into the body of man. The eternity in the heart of man is a God- shaped vacuum or blank, which only the Lord can fill.

Whenever man in his futility dares to fill the vacuum with sex, money, sports, career, or anything else, he’ll never be satisfied. Such efforts lead to a meaningless life. Only when the Lord fills the vacuum can a person begin to comprehend the purpose of God from the beginning to the end.

When God pervades into that vacuum within an unsaved man or woman, God does a work that is eternal. With this kind of divine work, none can add to it nor subtract from it. The Divine pervades in such a way that man discovers that he belongs to God and desperately needs God to live, without which man is rendered to a lifestyle of survival. Immediately man embraces the Divine’s entrance into the eternity within man, God becomes man’s center of focus. Man realizes that he belongs to God and the Lord is His.

Beautiful in His time, God’s works are well done. There is order, harmony, and beauty in all the works of God. Even the child is a finished beauty in all the changes/stages through which he passes, according to time when his structure is properly examined, and the ends kept in view in which each change is to issue.

Nothing of this kind can be said of the works of man.

Supremacy of Heaven

Heaven denotes the executive system of divine reality. The earth cannot fulfill its function without being conformed to the primeval glamour of heaven. In order for the earth to be in accord with the heavens, it must undergo a transmuted process. This is only possible when Deity pervades the realm of time to cause the earthly contours to align with heaven.

To what extent have you allowed Deity to inhabit your life? How has your existence on earth played a role in the overlapping of both the heaven’s and the earth’s?

Depths of God

The deep of today is the shallow end of tomorrow. Deep calls for deep. The knowledge of the Lofty One becomes sweeter as you approach the depth of it.

Reasoning With The Lord

The mystery of God’s word is interlocked by the Spirit of revelation, knowledge, understanding, and wisdom of Christ. God’s word is decoded by the function of covenant relationship with Christ through the Holy Ghost.

The progressive disclosure of God through His word is a journey of heart posture. It takes the adjustment of your mind and heart to traverse through the realms of eternal spirit in accessing the facets of Christ.

Before you are able to reason with God, He must elevate you to His level of consciousness to engage with the element of Christ in the pristine spirit of your identity.

Your level of understanding determines how far you grow or stagnate. Your level of understanding determines your ability to generate the potential within your being to become whom you were meant to be in Christ.

Prophetic words must be understood and embraced within the design and establishment of divine relationships (with God and fellow man). You have no mandate to determine the relationships you need. This is within the divine province of God who works out your life in accordance with the counsel of His will.

When you shun the nature of God’s leading in regards to Him linking you to certain relationships, you will fall short of capturing the overarching perspectives of revelation that unveil the purpose of God for your life. You end up struggling in life, preoccupied in the endless circus of your mind, heart, and will herding together within the limits of circumstances. The counters of your flesh subject you to function based on your physical senses rather than spiritual foresight.
