From the Desk of Doctor Paul ...For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ (the Anointed One and His Anointing). 2 Corinthians 4:6
You are the very Apple of Daddy's eye, His dream come true! We live for Him, without question. Yet, from His vantage point, He is, also, living for us, desiring, more than the Believer will ever know on this side, to shower His Children with every good and perfect gift.
I was so moved by a recently received letter. At the end of the text, its author closed with a statement that will forever remain burned in my spirit. This is what she wrote..."If God had a wallet, your picture would be in it!"
Beloved, that is precisely how He perceives you! Never question the Lord's commitment or love. Those words made this spirit leap for joy, a rhema (revelation) from Father to Paul, as well as you! And to think, God wants to send us love letters, every day. We are really the object of His affection.
How can we possibly fathom that constantly flowing agape (unconditional love) from the Throne Zone? Nothing but intimacy with the Father, permitting the Holy Spirit to shed His love abroad in our hearts, could possibly convey the intensity of those marvelous feelings toward us.
However, some, even in the Body of Christ, still perceive that the One, who created Children for His joy and fellowship, would, at times, desire to withhold blessings and that costly Covenant of prosperity and success, in all pertaining to life and godliness.
I sense a move of His beautiful Spirit, this very moment, as the Word of the Lord arrives, a fresh breeze of new Life in Him.
"Dear Heart, contemplate the purpose behind the sending forth of My Son. Many
feel that salvation was the sole reason. Certainly, that has always been
paramount. But there was another purpose for the rendered decision. Remember
those words...I so loved the world? That's right. The Savior proceeded from
Heaven's portals to manifest Dad's Presence, preach the Gospel to the poor,
and recovery of sight to the blind, to heal the brokenhearted, deliver the
captives, set at liberty them that are bruised by the enemy. Why? Because I
am in love with you! Would the Kingdom's best (Jesus) be accorded, without
regard for your healing, health, prosperity, empowerment and ministry? No
good thing will be kept from the Kids, in these days of the Spirit. Jesus
went about doing good, healing all oppressed of Satan. So, without a doubt,
healing is (doing good) a good gift, rightfully belonging to the Church.
Remember the widow woman of Nain? She was on her way out of the city to bury
her only son. Death was exiting, but Life (Jesus) was quickly approaching. As
the two intersected, one instantly yielded to the Other, without choice or
comment. That premature funeral was canceled! The Law of the Spirit of Life
in Christ will interrupt many burials, and other plans of the deceiver, as
you are obedient to those nudgings and promptings on the inside. Oh, what joy
we will both experience, when captivity is led captive, light overcomes
darkness, the curse is vitally reversed in this long awaited hour that I have
chosen. Child, you, too, must be blessed with the joy of knowing Him as the
Great Resurrection and Life, before the catching up of the Bride. Nothing is
more fun than dispensing that Glory, observing transformation of torment and
defeat to victory. No demon in hell will hold Me (you) back, now! Just remain
standing at the table, ready to move, while orders are issued by the Great
General."
"For that was a vital moment in history, when the Father, Son and Holy Spirit
gathered together to settle the sin issue, forever. You see, Beloved, perfect
Blood was required to not merely atone for, but remit, all iniquity. Your
Savior, slain from the foundation of the world, was expedient to volunteer,
be that perfect sacrifice. The Holy Spirit, seated at the Table of Heaven,
readily rendered a promise to meet the Master on earth, at just the right
time. And, as He wasn't late with the One who was obedient unto death,
neither will the Helper be tardy in your life and ministry. Consider Jesus'
dependency upon the Power Agent of the Trinity. All hung in the balance. From
moving upon Mary, to the Resurrection, including points in
between...protection, guidance, preaching the Gospel, healing the sick,
raising the dead, He did His job well. So, now, is the Holy Spirit committed
to you, Beloved, in revealing the Covenant, performing those greater works
than these. Listen to that still, small Utterance on the inside. Be fully
responsive and obedient to what is heard. Then, watch Me move in
unprecedented Power. The third day was the most glorious. My Church is at
that juncture, a place where the whole world will be filled with the
knowledge of My Glory, as the waters cover the seas."
"As I am, you have become, on this planet, Living Epistles, Lively Stones,
known and read of all men, impregnated with the Law of the Spirit of Life in
Christ. The Believer is the spout where the Glory comes out. How does Satan
accomplish his works? The answer is obvious...through available and yielded
vessels. Such is the case with your Dad. By being willing and fully
surrendered, crucified with Him, you will venture in and boldly possess this
land, undo the enemy's handiwork. Life begets life. What exudes from the
Church will be a positive contagion of signs, wonders and miracles. There is
an established pathway of recovery for each cell, potential and existing, a
way to reach the unreachable and heal the unhealable. All creation awaits
that manifestation, with heavy burdens that are not only overwhelming, but
illegal and unfair. I say, again, just as diseases are spread, via the mouth
and associated germs (contagion), such will be the case with the Glory...that
Atomic Blast, originating on the inside of your spirit, growing to such an
extent that the Cloud will cover the earth. Remember, the power of life and
death is in the tongue, that pen of a ready writer, poised to speak forth the
oracles of God. And so shall I come, as we are all caught up in Heaven's
Condensation. Rejoice! Your redemption truly draws nigh!"
"When I turn the captivity of Zion, you will be like them that dream! Mouths,
filled with Holy Laughter, will sing forth praises, as the unimaginable
becomes tangible. Watch that spoken Word of Revelation take on flesh and
dwell among men, as your confession lines up with the blueprint. An act (of
obedience) will become a fact. The Bride will no sooner think the miracle,
than it will be made manifest for all to see. In fact, before the calling
reaches Heaven, I shall abundantly answer. Multitudes will be hard pressed to
believe their eyes and ears! But that, which has been written, will come
alive and be handled by, yes, even the doubters. Satan's antics are doomed,
as the tidal wave of My Spirit acquires momentum, hour by hour, day by day.
Ride the crest of the Wave, Dear Child. Walking in the Spirit must be a flow,
not a struggle, a place of knowing, believing, expecting and experiencing.
Let the peace of God be the umpire, that deciding factor, of your heart. Head
in the direction of tranquility....destiny, that dream and vision afforded
long ago. Taste, and see, that I am good, plenteous in mercy unto all,
calling upon My Name. Your Blood-purchased position in the Father will result
in multitudes being added to the Lamb's Book of Life. That revelation is
about to become a globe-shaking reality!"
"Listen not to the opposer of My Glory. He has been a liar from the
beginning. The Truth is not in the enemy of your soul...mind, intellect,
will, emotions, dreams and visions. I am teaching My Church to utilize the
Mind of Christ, drawing from bowels of understanding and compassion. Think it
not strange, concerning the fiery trial of your faith, as Satan uses that
which is common to man. Regardless, the Believer's weapons of warfare are not
carnal (common to man), but mighty, through God, to the pulling down of
strongholds. The intimidator will always attempt to remove you from that
Secret Place of the Most High, into the realm of the senses...sight, smell,
sound, feelings, reason, mostly by way of doubt, fear, guilt and low
self-esteem. Your mandate is to remain in the arena of faith, where the evil
one cannot enter, since he has already been defeated there. Even the very
thought of following you (there) causes him to tremble. Don't be lured by his
crafty devices. But, in all your ways, acknowledge Me. And I will direct
every step!"
Studying and meditating upon Scriptures, pertaining to the Glory, will result
in full expectancy of the promised manifestation. I am expecting Resurrection
Power to accompany me, wherever the Holy Spirit directs...that identical
Presence that shone like fire on the face of Jesus.
The Glory will supply all needs. Within that realm rest His
riches. Everything required
to fulfill your call, and be blessed, is wrapped up in that Unction. It won't
simply float down from above, but will, in actuality, come forth from the
inside. Therein, lies the Truth.
1 Chronicles 16:27 says, "Glory and honour are in His (God's) Presence." And
since the Father, Himself, abides within, via the indwelling Holy Spirit,
that same Glory is already present on the inside.
Our problem isn't a lack of the Glory, but an absence of understanding. You
see, for example, the Believer doesn't have a money or health problem, but a
Word problem. No seed (Word) from God is void of the Life, or Power,
necessary to bring itself to pass.
We haven't really received a revelation of who we are, what the Christian has
become, in Him, or how to cooperation with that Anointing. But, God does not
want us to be ignorant, when it comes to recognizing and dispensing His
Medicine.
Do you often feel left out in the dark? He has commanded the Light to shine,
while granting us a working knowledge, an ability to comprehend and
understand how to use the Glory that has richly taken up residency in your
spirit. We have been given the Mind of Christ (I Corinthians 2:16). In plain
terms, the same Anointing that is on the Mind of Christ is available to us.
You and I are able to think His thoughts and perform the Father's will.
The enemy is not to be a thief and destroyer in your life, any longer! We
don't belong to ourselves, but Him, have been bought with a price, to glorify
God in our earth suit. How is that done, Paul? The answer comes directly from
a good Source. "Be a recipient and conduit of My Resurrection Power!" There's
no need for you to be held back by some mountain of sin, sickness or poverty
the devil has placed in your path. You have the Glory of God working
(inside), twenty-four hours a day, that Anointing to release the
manifestation.
When speaking forth the Word, originating in your heart, expect every
syllable to be drenched with the same Life that caused hell, itself, to bend
its knee, two-thousand years ago. Anticipate the all-powerful goodness of
Daddy to permeate that entire being...spirit, soul and body, until your life
shines with the same Glory that was witnessed on the Master's countenance,
the light that illuminates all Heaven.
Why not ask Him for the knowledge of His Glory? James 1:5 guarantees that He
will give it to you, liberally!
