" An intelligent heart acquires knowledge, and the ear of the wise seeks knowledge " - Proverbs 18:15

PRAYER INTENTIONS

We pray for the gift of knowledge, wisdom and understanding. We pray for deliverance from ignorance

Eternal God, in whom mercy is endless and the treasure of compassion inexhaustible, look kindly upon us and increase your mercy in us, that in difficult moments we might not despair nor become despondent, but with great confidence submit ourselves to your holy will which is love and mercy itself. Amen

Why does the Bible give so much credence to our trusting in the Lord and not our understanding? Because in spiritual warfare, we are no match in wisdom or cunning for the devil, but the Holy Spirit is. Only when we rely on the power of the Lord can we hope to do battle with the Dark Kingdom and be victorious.

As the book of Zachariah 4:6 will say “not by might not by power, but by my spirit says the Lord. Obstacles as great as mountains will disappear before you.” Therefore if we are going to encounter and overcome deceit, the best defensive ploy is to have knowledge. When a person knows the TRUTH, that person cannot be deceived. Consequently, when it comes to the armor of God, the first step in fighting against the wiles and deceitful methods of the devil is to know the TRUTH. “Stand, therefore, having your loins girt about with truth" – Ephesians 6:14.

We must strive each day to learn the whole truth of what God is saying to us through his WORD. It is only then that we can remain free. Let me emphasize this truth with a statement which you should never forget- the degree of freedom and truth you possess is directly proportional to the amount of the Bible which you both understand and practice.

“We need to be sober and vigilant; because our adversary the devil walks around like a lion, seeking whom to devour.” – 1Peter 5:8. Satan has been fighting humans since we were created. He knows mankind and what tricks will work against us. He also knows God much better than most of us, don’t forget he was created by God and was in God’s presence for a long time before he rebelled.

You see eerrh, those in the dark kingdom are experts in spiritual warfare. In contrast, we in the church have been ignorant concerning their activities and how they operate. Because of this ignorance about the dark kingdom, our ability to wage successful spiritual warfare has been limited, our ignorance has been bliss for Satan.

I am sure you know by now that before anything ever existed God was, He is the one who was - who is and who is to come. He dwelt in himself before eternity and time was created. What am talking about is a reality that exists in dimension that your mind cannot fathom. So you have to just accept it by faith. That's why scripture says in Hebrew 11:3, “through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God.”

You know, there is an understanding and a syllable of education that exists in a realm that cannot be captured in an articulate context. The only way you can interact with such dimensions is by articulating in your spirit, so ask for your spirit man to be empowered so you can assimilate and comprehend these mysteries.

It took prophet’s that journeyed into realms- eternal to come out with this lexicon of truth. JOHN after he travelled into before the beginning...wrote in the book of Revelation. Revelation is a book, one of those prophetic books that describes before the beginning, after the beginning and the end of the beginning.

You know you can't tell the story of the beginning except to travel to before the beginning. For you to experience the beginning you have to travel to before the beginning - that's the only time, you will have the stature to give a narrative of the beginning - that's why it’s your mother that will tell you how you were born and the circumstances leading to your birth, because she existed before you were born. You cannot tell your father how he was born, unless you have higher revelation.

I am able to talk about the beginning because of a higher revelation I received- just like it happened to the prophets and apostles. So like I was saying- John travelled to a dimension that existed before the beginning, same happened to Paul too, it is the hall mark of the prophets and apostles, the ability to do time travel in the spiritual time line.

1 John 1:5 says “God is light”, Paul says “God dwells in light; in him there is no darkness at all” in 1 Tim 6:16. Light dwelling in light. That's how the beginning was- God dwelling in God, the realm that existed before the beginning is light dwelling in light; Life living in life; Where there is no death or darkness or sin, that is the realm of Yahweh.

When he lived in that context for seasons he spoke to himself and saw the need to bring another realm aside of himself. The first realms he created was eternity- eternity necessitated the creation of spirits, and eternity necessitated the creation of time and all who exist within time. When Moses the prophet journeyed into Horeb, the planes of Zion were opened to him, don’t forget that Moses was not there in the beginning, he appeared in this dimension in Exodus the second book in the Bible, the only reason he could talk about the beginning was the HIGHER REVELATION that he received when he went to be with the Lord on the mountain of Horeb, that’s how come he could author Genesis - Higher revelation. He therefore began the narrative in the beginning "God created the heavens and the earth "

Genesis 1:1, which heavens and which earth? John was taken up into the prophetic and he said in Revelation- “I saw the old heaven and the old earth pass away”- Jesus will also say in Matthew 24:35, heaven and earth will pass away but my words will not pass away - it means that there is a possibility that an earth can pass away and give way to a new earth.

The bible is our biography as humans- have you ever thought about what transpired here before we came unto the scene….

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth- he began the architecture of the angelic realms- so he created some angels as beings of light, others as beings of wisdom, some others as beings of power and some others as beings of worship. If you look at the organization of the kingdom of God before the fall of Satan, you will realize that angels were created with great strength, wisdom, and beauty.

Their main purpose was to help God administer his government and kingdom throughout the universe. Of all the angels some were created with the most wisdom, power, and beauty; notable among them were Michael, Lucifer, Raphael and Gabriel.

I dare to say; back in the days before the rebellion, Lucifer was God's favourite. Kindly read Ezekiel 28:12-17 on your own. You will see the relationship between God and Lucifer back then.

TO BE CONTINUED...

Shalom and God bless you
