"Be": The Charge Of This Era

"Be"
The Charge of This Era

I have found how to express why I do not like the way the law of confession is taught. It is true and should be taught (I absolutely adore Pastor Bill Winston and one of my favorite albums is Donald Lawrence's Law of Confession). But many make it the cure and answer, when it is a tool of the answer, Jesus. It is definitely apart of God's manifold wisdom and limitless arsenal, but it is not the totality and fullness of God, much less God. I can say this about a lot of doctrines, like prayer, faith, tithes, eating right, repentance, forgiveness, forsaking not the fellowship aka joining and regularly attending your local church, etc. AND ALL OF THESE THINGS ARE ABSOLUTELY TO BE DONE!
But let me explain further my reasoning.

God said to Moses, tell them "I Am that I Am". Genesis 1:1 starts with, In the beginning - God... We can stop right there, for He is Alpha and Omega. Now, in Him, we live, move and have our being. Its an order, but does not have to be based on chronos time, but kairos, so it can happen simultaneously. But the end result was a state of "Be". A continuum of godliness. To every believer I say, you are that you are. Yes. We are that we are because of the great I Am that I Am.

When the Apostle Paul was bitten by a snake, he did not make a confession over his body to restore it. He did not run to the doctor. He did not suck the poison out. All these things are valid and useful and good. But there is a state of just "be" we are coming into, where truly, no evil shall befall us, neither shall any plague come near our dwelling. Please study all of Psalms 91. Moses tapped into a great, great truth. It has always been, but now God is expecting, especially sons to maintain this state; a sustained, impenetrable perfection. And not only for their own bodies and possessions, but to use it to beautify and defend all of creation. This takes absolute faith that works by Love and a constant meditation, until.... It takes not coming again and again to Jesus to be washed, though we absolutely can and should when necessary. But we are to remain continuously in His presence. This is not to say "heavenly minded, but no earthly good" , nor is it ordaining a bunch of lazy "saints" staying home all day like zombies in a trance. But there is a perfect symbiotic relationship you can have with Christ, in Christ, that allows you to do all daily activities. Else, why would Jesus say pray and not cease if it were not possible.

Now why is this in this generation so vital. Although, I renew the fact, it has always been. We are seated in heavenly (high) places in Christ Jesus, but in the same book of Ephesians, it also says, we wrestle not against flesh and blood but against... spiritual wickedness in high places. Satan is defeated, but he is still the prince of the power of the air. Therefore, though the Word is line upon line, and precept upon precept, and there are many rungs of the ladder in Him, we can perch upon, the enemy comes in like a flood and is like a virus that will keep adapting and mutating until your chosen defense for that particular problem, has no effect even if it worked a thousand times before. So what has God done and always done when the enemy comes like said flood. He raises the standard. It usually happens with individuals first, but then He expects the entire Body to go to the next level and the higher standard unto a perfect man, thoroughly furnished. It is at this height, Satan can never touch you; us. God sees Satan coming closer and closer; getting higher and higher. Let us find the highest, height and stay there. Get high. Stay high. He once winked at our collective ignorance, but now out of love and absolute care, God requires us to close the gap. Again, the enemy has mutated and is close. No condemnation, but no excuses, either.

So, what did Paul do. No confessions. No prayer. He just shook it off. And shaking is not to become a doctrine either (I heard that in my spirit). Paul, only shook his hand to literally drop the beast; the serpent into the fire (now that'll preach), AND FELT NO HARM.

Let me conclude with this. For I am not one of those that teaches its sinful or a lack of faith to go to the doctors, though I know where I am at. Do not try this until you are ready. Start where you are at. Please, take your children to the doctor to get proper care. Please, do exercise and eat right. Encourage others also. Stop bad habits. And yes, of course, speak right words. Words do create. The power of life and death is in the tongue. But do not mistake any of these things for the fullness of God. If God never said a word, still, who could touch Him and bring Him harm. Are we not sons of that God?

Strengthen yourselves. So that IF you get into a place where you cant do whatever, it wont matter. And, strengthen yourselves through faith so that evil can never overtake you and get you in that place in the first place! But, like Jesus, you only voluntarily lay down your life to rescue another. These things we speak of are more than possible, it already is. To the sons, they should no longer be miracles, but mundane aspects of life. For all creation awaits our manifestation that it may experience all goodness, and it also simply "be" on earth as it is in Heaven. If the sons of man are to become sons of God, making ourselves equal with God. Then, it should follow suit, that the home of the sons of man should become as the home of God, and also be made equal.

Amen.

PS. I sometimes purposely leave out scripture references . Study to shew yourself approved. The Barreans were more noble because they received the Word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily to see if these things were so. (Acts 17:10-11) A freebie. :-)
