When a Man’s hand does the will of the Father that Man’s name is written in the Book of Life”- The Spirit of God – (September 14th 2018)
- The Holy Spirit is our Teacher.
- All revelation concerning Gods written word is found in the scripture.
- All questions for the sake of salvation are welcome.
It has been told and it’s known that every King has a kingdom. God’s Kingdom is in heaven. When Jesus walked the earth he said many times that he was not of this world.
Question: What world was Jesus not of ?
Psalms 24:1 The earth is the LORD’S, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.
It’s very clear that Jesus was not speaking about the world that consist of the earth. Then what world was he not from?. In the book of John 17 Jesus was praying a prayer about that very same world
John 17:14-16 14 I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.15 I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil. 16 They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
The world Jesus was speaking about is the world in absent of the kingdom of Heaven. The earth belongs to God 100%, However in the earth there is a system fighting to over shadow men into deception. Creating a barrier or partition dividing the natural man from God so he cannot understand even unto death. The fall of man did not begin when Adam and Eve sinned. The fall of man began in
Revelation 12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
If Satan was able to convince and deceive 1/3 of the angels in heaven. As mentioned in Rev 12:3-4
However the scriptures says that man was made a little lower than angels. The description of Jesus as a man in the book of Hebrews gives us an indication who we are as we walk in Christ.
Hebrews 2:7 Thou madest him a little lower than the angels; thou crownedst him with glory and honour, and didst set him over the works of thy hands:
Revelation 12:7-8 7 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, 8 And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.
In Revelation 12:7 it looked like Michael and his angels defeated satan the dragon; however it was the God in his kingdom that did the work. Another example of this is found when Jesus asked his disciples “who does men say I am”
Matthew 16:13-17 13 When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am? 14 And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets. 15 He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? and Peter’s confession of him 16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. 17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.
It looked like Peter answered it on his own. However unto further evidence Jesus disclosed who actually answered the question it was God the father in his kingdom. Likewise in during the war in heaven concerning satan the dragon and his angels it was God that defeated him in heaven not, Micheal and his Angels as it appear to be, Because God has a kingdom.
Revelation 12:10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.
The kingdom of God is in heaven, and the kingdom that is in heaven is God and by the power of Christ came on earth, like he did in heaven to destroy the works of the devil
1 John 3:8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
Jesus always proclaim that the kingdom of heaven is near, meaning God and all his power is near you.
In the scriptures the kingdom of God or Heaven refers to what the power of Christ came to do and it’s to destroy the works of the devil.
Matthew 4:17 From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
Luke 10:9 And heal the sick that are therein, and say unto them, The kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.
Matthew 10:7 And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand.
Luke 17:21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.
An example of the Kingdom of God within us; Apostle Peter didn’t even realize the Father in heaven spoke using Peter’s own voice saying “ Thou at the Christ the son of the living God”
During the war in heaven Micheal and his angels had to trust in the kingdom of God and the power of Christ to defeat satan the dragon and his angels. We here on earth, are also equipped with the kingdom of God and the power of Christ to destroy the works of the devil. Like Micheal and the Angels in heaven we are called to TRUST in that very same Kingdom, that not only destroy the works of the devil in heaven, but is now here on earth within us to do the same
