SIMPLIFYING THE PROPHETIC
Part II: Making It Plain
THE PROPHETIC REVEALS CHRIST
In studying the Bible, you have probably come to understand that the PRINCIPLE thing that God wants from us is the restoration of His family - without spot or wrinkle. His deepest desire is to live and dwell with us in perfect union. There is no mandate IN HEAVEN OR ON EARTH that supersedes this desire or his design to bring it to past.
To fulfill this mandate, God spent the entire Old Covenant revealing himself to humanity. This truth is indisputable. Everything he did was to cause humanity to be restored to its oneness with Him (Deut. 6:1-9). I like to refer to this plan as the God's endgame or his ultimate intention. No matter what it is or what we do -- all PROPHETIC ROADS will lead there if it is of God. I might be teaching on The Scribal Anointing, but with every step we POINT TO THE LORD -- not self, not other people and definitely no other gods.
God sent Jesus.
Jesus's function in the earth was simple: He came to reveal the Father. He declared, I only do and say what I see my Father do and what I hear Him say (John 5:19; John 12:49). Absolutely every action written of Jesus unveils who God is, His love for humanity and His endgame. After Jesus completed his ministry and became the Christ, he sent Holy Spirit to dwell with us.
Christ sent Holy Spirit.
Holy Spirit's function is to reveal Christ to, in and through us. John 16:13-14 declares that Holy Spirit was sent to dwell with the Sons of God specifically to reveal the heart, mind and will of God to us, and help us navigate accordingly in the earth. As part of this release, Jesus delegated authority to us by the power of Holy Spirit (Acts 2) to reveal Christ in the earth. As sons (submitted vessels carrying HOLY SPIRIT), we are responsible for revealing Christ in whatever capacity we are sent in the earth. Christ's mandate continues with us.
We are called to reveal Christ! 1 Corinthians 11:1, "Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ."
As sons, we are one with the Father and his mandate does not change. With every new soul that enters the Kingdom, however, the mandate expands. We don't always need a big plan, what we need is a pliable, willing heart to obey.
Even if we have not entered into a place of recognizing or even understanding the mastery of our own destiny and purpose, we can rest in knowing that TODAY we can do whatever is necessary to reveal the Lord's likeness and image, will, purpose and intention. Our role in the Kingdom is ONLY as complicated as we make it!
And guess what, the most profound tool we have is PRESENCE.... the manifestation of Holy Spirit in, through and around us.
