As God's people we are approaching the feast of Christmas in this month. In our region this feast is celebrated during the cold season (note: less sunlight present), and I would therefore like to explain the secret, i.e. unknown nature of God.
 
God's Longing to Increase Light
 
Although sunlight and temperature decrease in the winter season, God longs to increase the light from the inside, which is connected to the presence of His fire.
 
Celebrating Christmas
 
Even though Jesus wasn't born during December 24th – 26th, it doesn't mean that we can't celebrate Christmas.
The Advent/Christmas season is the period in which Jesus was conceived by Mary through the Holy Spirit.
Therefore it is good to remember during this time that the Heavenly Father sent Jesus Christ to earth to shine as light and to enlighten many people with His light (see John 8:12 i.c.w. Matthew 5:14).
 
John 8:12:
12 When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”
 
Matthew 5:14:
14 “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden.
 
This is the time where we as saints in Jesus Christ should especially remember the love of God, which is JESUS, be thankful for it and bear witness of it.
The Christmas time is a wonderful time to celebrate the love of God.
 
The “Darkness” of God
 
In the way as there is a cold or dark season, whereat the adjective “dark” does not have a negative meaning, there exists also a spiritual time connected to the dark or darkness: It is the darkness, which serves as carrier of the dwelling place of God (see Exodus 20:21 i.c.w. 1 Kings 8:12).
 
Exodus 20:21:
21 The people remained at a distance, while Moses approached the thick darkness where God was.
 
1 Kings 8:12:
12 Then Solomon said, “The LORD has said that he would dwell in a dark cloud; …”
 
This darkness speaks of the outer presence of God, because His inner nature is full of light, and no darkness is in Him (see 1 John 1:5)!
 
1 John 1:5:
5 This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is light; in him there is no darkness at all.
 
This outer darkness of God points towards His hidden nature, i.e. His secret, in which or whom all treasures of wisdom and knowledge are hidden (see Colossians 2:2-3).
 
Colossians 2:2-3:
2 My goal is that they may be encouraged in heart and united in love, so that they may have the full riches of complete understanding, in order that they may know the mystery of God, namely, Christ, 3 in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.
 
The New Room and the New Time
 
The LORD informed me that in times to come we will get in touch with the secret nature of God, which is connected to the power of His eternity and which creates a new room and a new time for us in the earth.
Never before did something like this exist in our lives.
Furthermore the LORD told me, He would use people from the camp of non-believers and people from the religious camp to confirm the place of His presence and the truth of His word in this time
(see Matthew 2:1-2.4-6).
 
Matthew 2:1-2.4-6:
1 After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi from the east came to Jerusalem 2 and asked, “Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him.” …
… 4 When he (note: Herod) had called together all the people’s chief priests and teachers of the law, he asked them where the Messiah was to be born.
5 “In Bethlehem in Judea,” they replied, “for this is what the prophet has written (see Micah 5:1): 6 “‘But you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, are by no means least among the rulers of Judah; for out of you will come a ruler who will shepherd my people Israel.’”
 
Political and Societal “Shock Waves”
 
The confirmation mentioned above will cause shock waves in politics and society, accompanied by the power of the eternal gospel, which will be carried by a special presence of angels and cannot be arrested (see Matthew 2:3 i.c.w. Revelation 14:6).
 
Matthew 2:3:
3 When King Herod (note: politics) heard this he was disturbed, and all Jerusalem (note: society) with him.
 
Revelation 14:6:
6 Then I saw another angel flying in midair, and he had the eternal gospel to proclaim to those who live on the earth – to every nation, tribe, language and people.
 
This special presence of angels results in the fear of the LORD and a higher form of worship because of the righteous presence of God among the people (see Revelation 14:7).
 
Revelation 14:7:
7 He (note: the angel) said in a loud voice, “Fear God and give him glory, because the hour of his judgement has come. Worship him who made the heavens, the earth, the sea and the springs of water.”
 
Confirmation of the Birth of Jesus by an Angel
 
Jesus' birth heralding the beginning of a new time, i.e. the time of the gospel, was also confirmed by the presence and witness of a special angel (see Luke 2:8-9).
 
Luke 2:8-9:
8 And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night.
9 An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified.
 
Paul and the Sign of the “Unknown God”
 
The Apostle Paul was also led to give witness of the creative power of God and His righteousness, when he saw the “sign of the unknown god” erected by non-believing Greeks at the Areopag in his days (see Acts 17:23).
 
Acts 17:23:
23 For as I walked around and looked carefully at your objects of worship, I even found an altar with this inscription: to an unknown god. So you are ignorant of the very thing you worship – and this is what I am going to proclaim to you.
 
The Birth of Jesus and the Dark Night Sky
 
It also pleased God to use the expansion of the dark night sky at the time of Jesus' birth to cause people, who did not know Jesus Christ personally, to confirm Jesus in His kingship by using a little shining light in the big night sky (note: morning star)
It took place, when wise men/magicians presented their gifts (see Matthew 2:9-11).
 
Matthew 2:9-11:
9 After they had heard the king, they went on their way, and the star they had seen when it rose went ahead of them until it stopped over the place where the child was.
10 When they saw the star, they were overjoyed.
11 On coming to the house, they saw the child with his mother Mary, and they bowed down and worshiped him. Then they opened their treasures and presented him with gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh.
 
Little Things Reveal God's Greatness!
 
By the above mentioned explanation we can see that it pleases God to use the existing dark to reveal His greatness and secrets through little, unimpressive things (see 1 Corinthians 1:27-29)!
 
1 Corinthians 1:27-29:
27 But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong.
28 God chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things – and the things that are not – to nullify the things that are, 29 so that no one may boast before him.
 
Looking at the Hebrew word „'ôlām“, which is connected to the hidden or eternal nature of God, clearly shows that the eternal God uses the darkness present to point to His secrets.
'ôlām“ means „eternal, always, furthest time, duration, eternity.“
The Hebrew root word of „'ôlām“ is „'ālam“ and means „to be hidden, to be secret“. This word describes a „cloaked, incalculable time frame“, which refers to the past as in „ancient, prehistoric, always, from ancient times“ and to the future as in „forever, unlimited, continuous, irrevocably“ (part excerpt from the Elberfelder Study bible on the Hebrew word „'ôlām“ with language key number 5886).
 
So, every time God reveals His secrets, they always have an eternal character which is meant to glorify Him in His greatness.
 
God Eternal
 
God Eternal first appears in Genesis 21, where we can read about Abraham who made a treaty or covenant with Abimelek, king of the Philistines about the well of Beersheba which he (note: Abraham) had dug.
 
In conjunction with this, Abraham gave Abimelek seven lambs as a witness and planted a tamarisk tree there and called on the name of the eternal God (see Genesis 21:25-32a.33).
 
Genesis 21:25-32a.33:
25 Then Abraham complained to Abimelek about a well of water that Abimelek’s servants had seized.
26 But Abimelek said, “I don’t know who has done this. You did not tell me, and I heard about it only today.”
27 So Abraham brought sheep and cattle and gave them to Abimelek, and the two men made a treaty.
28 Abraham set apart seven ewe lambs from the flock, 29 and Abimelek asked Abraham, “What is the meaning of these seven ewe lambs you have set apart by themselves?”
30 He replied, “Accept these seven lambs from my hand as a witness that I dug this well.”
31 So that place was called Beersheba, because the two men swore an oath there.
32a After the treaty had been made at Beersheba, …
33 Abraham planted a tamarisk tree in Beersheba, and there he called on the name of the Lord, the Eternal God (note: „'ēl 'ôlām“).
 
It is no coincidence that subject of the contract was a particular depth, namely a well which carried “deep water” (note: the well of Beersheba – seven wells/well of the oath). This contract became valid before God by Abraham giving a gift of seven lambs to the king of the Philistines and planting a tree.
Jesus Christ is the perfect Lamb of God and the tree of life, who came into the world (note: where the prince of the world rules; see John 12:31; John 14:30; John 16:11), and He carries the promise of His Heavenly Father to redeem everyone who believes in Him and to give him eternal life (see John 3:16).
 
John 3:16:
16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
 
Amen and Amen.

PROPHESIED ON THE 18’th OF DECEMBER 2018 | 10’th OF TEVET 5779, NAJOTH BERLIN – SPANDAU
 
“There is the place and time where you find yourself in the midst of a challenge with some people who are close to you! This time of challenge seems like a pressing phase, because the hand of the Lord is working on you from the outside to let you enter into an expansion giving you a greater overview! This increase is linked to a higher level of divine love and His governmental presence, says the spirit of the prophet (see Mark 2:22 i.c.w. John 2:7-10)!
There is the hand of God that raises you up and the presence of His Spirit that expands you (see Genesis 2:7)!
Do not despise the phase of “downloading” because it is paving the way for “uploading” (see Ezekiel 1:28; Daniel 8:18.27; Daniel 10:15-19; Revelation 1:17-18)!
You cannot stand on high in the love of God if you do not have depth in the love of God (see Ephesians 3:17-19 i.c.w. John 12:24)!
There are things that you must hand over to receive something new and greater, says the spirit of the prophet (see Luke 6:38 i.c.w. Acts 20:35)!
Even if it feels as if you are in captivity, be aware that the Lord suddenly appears with His governmental presence and will call you to look deeper at the things He reveals! Don't fear “darkness” because it is the carrier of His feet (see Psalm 18:9 i.c.w. 1 Kings 8:12)!
It is about the walk in the power of faith and in the mysteries of God, says the spirit of the prophet!
Make sure that you stay close to the movement of the Holy Spirit, because He reveals the truth about the greatness of God and His government (see Ezekiel 1:1-3 i.c.w. John 16:13)!
Be aware of the presence of “the river” which carries the potential in order to bring the hidden treasures in Jesus Christ to light in your future (see Genesis 2:10-14 i.c.w. John 7:38-39a; Colossians 2:2-3)!
There is something before you, waiting for you to enter, in order to become your blessing and to bring to the surface this hidden potential within you!
You will be amazed of the potential within you, says the spirit of the prophet!
Your potential is like the “fertilizer” leading that what was about to be judged to become a work of grace for using potentiality (see Luke 13:6-9)!”
 
Amen and Amen.
 
In His Wisdom,

The Paralyzed Man at the Beautiful Gate
 
With reference to the subject of breaking with old mind patterns (note: belief systems) and the moment of God's presence, we would like to refer to the biblical passage from Acts 3:1-10, which deals with the lame man sitting and begging at the so-called beautiful gate of the temple. He was paralyzed from birth and was carried daily to this place by people (see Acts 3:2).
 
Acts 3:2:
2 Now a man who was lame from birth was being carried to the temple gate called Beautiful, where he was put every day to beg from those going into the temple courts.
 
The paralyzed man was negatively influenced over a long period of time by the concept or conviction of his fellow men surrounding him, in that he resigned himself to his paralyzed state and thereby begged at the beautiful gate of the temple. He connected himself with the wrong idea of other people who kept him thinking there was no other way out of his paralyzed state than only to get a little money by begging in order to survive.
 
But God had an appointed time of healing for the lame on a daily basis, which the paralyzed man couldn't recognize because of his relationships with people who didn't believe in the supernatural work of God and His timings (note: appointments with God, divine visitations).
 
When God has determined a particular time, it is very important that this point of time is correctly discerned and recognized by that person.
 
God had repeatedly created moments for the lame man in the past to encounter him. This becomes clear by the Greek word for “beautiful – hōrạịos”, which means “on time, punctual, beautiful, wonderful, well formed”. It is derived from the Greek root word “hōra”, which among other things means “a certain time” or “a point in time”. (note: part excerpt from the Elberfleder Study Bible to the Greek word “hōrạịos – beautiful” and the word “hōra – moment” with the word key number: 5418* and 5417)
 
Since the paralyzed man was a man who had been paralyzed since his birth, we can imagine that he was carried to the place of God's moment by people from his environment for many years without having experienced a supernatural visitation.
 
Because of his paralyzed condition the lame decided to beg from believers who went into the center of the Heavenly Father because he knew that the movement of the kingdom of God was associated with prosperity (note: blessings, wealth).
 
The center of the Heavenly Father in this context is related to the temple because Jesus, when he lived on earth in His youth, referred to it clearly (see Luke 2:46-49).
 
Luke 2:46-49:
46 After three days they found him in the temple courts, sitting among the teachers, listening to them and asking them questions.
47 Everyone who heard him was amazed at his understanding and his answers.
48 When his parents saw him, they were astonished. His mother said to him, “Son, why have you treated us like this? Your father and I have been anxiously searching for you.”
49 “Why were you searching for me?” he asked. “Didn’t you know I had to be in my Father’s house?”
 
Therefore, it is no coincidence that the event with the lame at the beautiful gate is connected to the going up of the two apostles Peter and John, who were about to go into the center of the Heavenly Father to intensify fellowship with Him and the saints (see Acts 3:1).
 
Acts 3:1:
1 One day Peter and John were going up to the temple at the time of prayer – at three (note: ninth hour) in the afternoon.
 
Two Types of Believers
 
Looking at the event in a prophetic context, it is clear that two types of believers are described, the first being people who are captured in a state of immaturity by a false mindset and are unable to enter the center of God with all its rights and privileges. This paralyzed state is caused by a religious spirit that seeks to stop the spiritual development (note: maturity) and movement of the Holy Spirit in the lives of believers.
 
The second type are believers who move in a higher realm of spiritual authority because they are aware of the responsibility in the sonship of God and thus gain deep knowledge and intimacy with the Heavenly Father.
 
What is the Religious Spirit?
 
=> The religious spirit is a demonic power that wants to stop the process of change in the body of Christ with all its might.
This procedure or this attack is carried out by the religious spirit through all ages.
When one considers the literal meaning of religion, the word means “to think about divine things”.
 
Furthermore, the word “religion” has three meanings in the Word of God: external religious acts, such as prayer and going to church; the feeling of absolute dependence; and the observance of moral laws as a divine institution.
 
James 1:26-27 defines “religion” from the Christian point of view:
 
Those who consider themselves religious and yet do not keep a tight rein on their tongues deceive themselves, and their religion is worthless.
Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.”
 
Religion is associated with worship, and when it is pure, it is very powerful. However, religion is also defined as an organizational system of doctrine with a cheap pattern of behavior.
 
This means that the behavior has to demonstrate a proper form of worship. This is where we move from pure and unpolluted religion into a ritual. Demons of doctrines rob people of their freedom to worship the holy God in purity through institutional rules and regulations of worship.
 
The religious spirit resists especially the apostolic and prophetic anointing because demons hate God-given revelation and His pioneering nature for the church. They resist the gifts in the body of Christ which bring revelatory freedom to the members of the body. They try to stone the revelations of the apostles and prophets because their revelatory words establish God's foundation in the church of Christ for this age.
 
1 Corinthians 12:28 establishes an order of governmental gifts in the body of Christ for victory in the world. This order is:
  1. apostles and
  2. prophets.
Religious spirits try to oppose the order of God and His initiated change.
 
It is the Spirit of God who helps people's thoughts and thought processes to implement change on earth. However, it is the carnal mind of man that opposes this and is in enmity with God (see Galatians 5:17).
 
Galatians 5:17:
17 For the flesh desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh. They are in conflict with each other, so that you are not to do whatever you want.
 
Religious spirits try to block strategic thinking for the future.They can bring people into a routine, or into a rut, so that they don't want to go into a change in today's methods associated with victory.
In the New Testament, the disciples of the Lord should have a revelation about how He is, who they are and who their enemies were.
 
Through Jesus Christ, the Pharisees or Scribes were given the choice either to oppose the divine nature of the Son of God or to align themselves with Jesus. It was up to them either to observe the rules of worship at the place where changes in behavior took place in worship, or to begin worshiping in spirit and truth. <= (note: analogously part excerpt from the book “God's Now Time for Your Life,” pages 113-116 by Chuck D. Pierce, ISBN: 0-8307-3834-7)
 
Religiousness and Poverty
 
The religious spirit causes believers to have a mindset of poverty which prevents them from entering into the direct presence of the Heavenly Father. As a result, those believers seek their help in the riches (note: meant here material and immaterial) of the sons of God, instead of personally entering the sonship of God and receiving it in the presence of God themselves (see Acts 3:2-3).
 
Acts 3:2-3:
2 Now a man who was lame from birth was being carried to the temple gate called Beautiful, where he was put every day to beg from those going into the temple courts.
3 When he saw Peter and John about to enter, he asked them for money.
 
Such poverty thinking is devouring of God's resources and should be addressed in love and revelatory truth so that the respective believers may enter their individual sonship of Christ in order to be enabled to become a part of God's economy (note: blessings, prosperity, wealth).
 
The Apostolic and Prophetic Perspective
 
It is the power of the apostolic and prophetic perspective that leads to the dissolution of the paralyzing state and causes believers to move from a cycle of poverty to the moment of God's prosperity in spirit, soul and body (see Acts 3:4-6).
 
Acts 3:4-6:
4 Peter looked straight at him, as did John. Then Peter said, “Look at us!”
5 So the man gave them his attention, expecting to get something from them.
6 Then Peter said, “Silver or gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk.”
 
Before the lame could receive his healing to become a literal sign and wonder for the people around him, it was necessary for him to look into the apostolic and prophetic light of God to be filled with His light and touched by the power of God to obey the apostolic instruction (see Acts 3:4.6-7 i.c.w. Luke 11:34a-b).
 
Acts 3:4.6-7:
4 Peter looked straight at him, as did John. Then Peter said, “Look at us!” …
6 Then Peter said, “Silver or gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk.” 7 Taking him by the right hand, he helped him up, and instantly the man’s feet and ankles became strong.
 
Luke 11:34a-b:
34a-b Your eye is the lamp of your body. When your eyes are healthy, your whole body also is full of light. …
 
The Four Eyes and the Door
 
Here the enlightened eyes of the apostles together with the eyes of the lame that were unenlightened established horizontally the victory of the cross of Jesus in the invisible world in order to create a new man.
The reason lies in the fact that the lame man had to look right and left with his eyes in order to look into the four eyes of the apostles. The number of the involved eyes was six, indicating the new life of the lame man that was about to come because God created man on the sixth day (see Genesis 1:27.31).
 
Genesis 1:27.31:
27 So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them. …
31 God saw all that he had made, and it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morning – the sixth day.
 
The four eyes of the apostles formed the door for the lame man to enter into the higher realm of God, similar to what John saw in the book of Revelation when he saw the door in heaven opened (see Revelation 4:1).
 
Revelation 4:1:
1 After this I looked, and there before me was a door standing open in heaven. And the voice I had first heard speaking to me like a trumpet said, “Come up here, and I will show you what must take place after this.”
 
The number “4” is related to the Hebrew letter “Daleth”, which is connected to an “open tent door” or a “wing of a door” and at the same time is a reference to Jesus Christ, who is the door to enter the presence and provision of God (see John 10:9).
 
John 10:9:
9 I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved. They will come in and go out, and find pasture.
 
The Call of God to Go Higher in the Spirit
 
At the times when God wants to bring about a change in the body of Christ on earth, it is unavoidable that spiritual leaders within the body of Christ will be called by God to step out and move to a higher level of fellowship and improvement in order to bring forth more fruitfulness for His people (see Acts 3:1).
 
Acts 3:1:
1 One day Peter and John were going up to the temple at the time of prayer – at three in the afternoon (note: ninth hour).
 
As a result, spiritual leaders do not fail to face challenges in their lives in order to create the will and moment of God in people's lives, to enable them to enter into apostolic and prophetic worship (note: represented by Peter and John) in the center of God and in authentic fellowship of saints (see Acts 3:8-10).
 
Acts 3:8-10:
8 He jumped to his feet and began to walk. Then he went with them into the temple courts, walking and jumping, and praising God.
9 When all the people saw him walking and praising God, 10 they recognized him as the same man who used to sit begging at the temple gate called Beautiful, and they were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him.
 
Coming Under the Apostolic Wing of God
 
Since the previously paralyzed man went under the authority of the apostolic-prophetic alliance (note: Peter and John), he was given access to the realm of greater wisdom because he joined the apostles and followed them into the colonnade of Solomon causing people to be amazed by it (see Acts 3:11 i.c.w. 1 Kings 4:29-30).
 
Acts 3:11:
11 While the man held on to Peter and John, all the people were astonished and came running to them in the place called Solomon’s Colonnade.
 
1 Kings 4:29-30:
29 God gave Solomon wisdom and very great insight, and a breadth of understanding as measureless as the sand on the seashore.
30 Solomon’s wisdom was greater than the wisdom of all the people of the East, and greater than all the wisdom of Egypt.
 
The Geographical Location of Solomon's Colonnade
 
Solomon's Colonnade was the columned hall on the east side of the temple. Its geographical location prophesied to man, the new day of the Lord, through the assistance of the Spirit of Wisdom who is the Holy Spirit (note: In the east the sun rises and announces the day.).
 
This hall was also the place where Jesus as Messiah confronted the religious leaders by speaking about His obeying sheep following His voice but also about the unity with His Heavenly Father (see John 10:23-30).
 
John 10:23-30:
… 23 and Jesus was in the temple courts walking in Solomon’s Colonnade.
24 The Jews who were there gathered around him, saying, “How long will you keep us in suspense? If you are the Messiah, tell us plainly.”
25 Jesus answered, “I did tell you, but you do not believe. The works I do in my Father’s name testify about me,
26 but you do not believe because you are not my sheep.
27 My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me.
28 I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one will snatch them out of my hand.
29 My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all3; no one can snatch them out of my Father’s hand.
30 I and the Father are one.”
 
The Result of the Released Believers Under the Apostolic Anointing
 
The enrichment of the believers, who were previously in a paralyzed state for a long time and now begin to live in the freedom and order of the Spirit, has the consequence that it comes to astonishment within the body of Christ, because they are in the right apostolic alignment at this time and have a part in the revelatory presence of God.
 
These are believers who become familiar with the facets of the face of God that are:
  1. the face of the lion => The face of the lion is connected with the spirit of the LORD and the spirit of the fear of the LORD.
  2. the face of the bull => The face of the bull is connected to the spirit of strength.
  3. the face of man => The face of man is connected with the spirit of understanding and counsel.
  4. the face of the flying eagle => The face of the flying eagle is connected with the spirit of wisdom and knowledge.
The reason why the four living beings or their faces reflect the face of God is because each face of the four beings reveals a certain measure of God's desire to personally communicate His character to us.
Furthermore, the four faces of the living beings reflect the face of God, because we too are transformed into the image we look at (see 2 Corinthians 3:18).
 
2 Corinthians 3:18:
18 And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.
 
It is similar to the lambs and goats of Jacob at the time of Laban, which looked at the peeled wooden sticks and thus became a powerful flock. The lambs reflected the structure of the sticks they saw (see Genesis 30:37-43).
 
Genesis 30:37-43:
37 Jacob, however, took fresh-cut branches from poplar, almond and plane trees and made white stripes on them by peeling the bark and exposing the white inner wood of the branches.
38 Then he placed the peeled branches in all the watering troughs, so that they would be directly in front of the flocks when they came to drink. When the flocks were in heat and came to drink, 39 they mated in front of the branches. And they bore young that were streaked or speckled or spotted.
40 Jacob set apart the young of the flock by themselves, but made the rest face the streaked and dark-colored animals that belonged to Laban. Thus he made separate flocks for himself and did not put them with Laban’s animals.
41 Whenever the stronger females were in heat, Jacob would place the branches in the troughs in front of the animals so they would mate near the branches, 42 but if the animals were weak, he would not place them there. So the weak animals went to Laban and the strong ones to Jacob.
43 In this way the man grew exceedingly prosperous and came to own large flocks, and female and male servants, and camels and donkeys.
 
From this we come to the conclusion that there is the necessity for the time ahead that it is not enough to have a knowledge of Jesus Christ without a passionate devotion under His guidance. This guidance includes, in addition to submission and subordination to His Word, the willingness to acknowledge higher anointings and to place oneself in the destiny that has been set for one.

We can recognize our destiny only in the readiness to direct the eyes of our heart upwards to the Heavenly Father, in order to be able to be formed like the image of His glory. As we do this, in the process of inner change we must recognize what is to be let go of and actually break this attitude (note: blockades from the past, belief systems holding us back) in order to move in the freedom of the Spirit.
 
Amen and Amen.
 
In His Wisdom,
