I heard the Lord Say,
7 If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. John 15:7
And the Lord Says
Don’t think you are under punishment when it is your time to bear fruit. Feel My hand at work when trouble comes.
Feel Me pruning and shaping character in your soul. Children I desire you to be outstanding during the test of times – standing apart from indignation.
Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast. Isaiah 26:20
Children I AM working so that you may have a perfect “Outward Show”. All the gifts of the Spirit and working of miracles come through faith.
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men’s bones, and of all uncleanness.
Matthew 23:27
4 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. 5 And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord. 6 And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all. 7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal. 8 For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit; 9 To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit; 10 To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues: 11 But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will. 1 Corinthians 12:4-11
I AM working to change the way you look because – people are noticing your outside. I want man to see My children looking just like Me. Children you are to be busy proving My Word – not showing you can do worldly tricks, Peace Out
But the LORD said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart. 1 Samuel 16:7
1 I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. 2 Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. 3 Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. 4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. 5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. 6 If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. 7 If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. John 15:1-7
My thoughts
I look up the word Abide in Strong’s Greek Dictionary – μένω meno (ménō) μένω ménō, men’-o: A primary verb; to stay (in a given place, state, relation or expectancy):—abide, continue, dwell, endure, be present, remain, stand, tarry (for), × thine own.
The Lord is showing us how to position ourselves for a completed work He wants to do within His people.
Consistency is key. The object in fulfillment in God’s Word is to stay the course. Fulfillment comes at repeatedly staying in the Word of God.
We must remain in His Word no matter what outward shows appear. If a live electrical wire falls on a car or over a door – we are told do not open the door until the danger passes. The same principle applies in difficult situations while applying the word of truth.
People of God must endure hardships like good soldiers – knowing reinforcements are coming.
And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.
Luke 9:62
A cleansing process takes place when we allow the Lord to Purge and purify the human mind, body, and soul. It is necessary to take a full bath – not a sponge bath. If we want all of God we must surrender all of ourselves. Let us surrender our will for the perfect will of the Lord.
Imagine a person planting seeds for an apple tree. It never sprouts any leaves or branches. Suddenly apples start emerging from the belly of the tree. Immediately they fall to the ground and rot.
God’s Word must take root in our spirits. Unfruitful things cannot bear fruitful things.
The Lord is telling His people that they are blending in too much like unsaved people. He is seeing too much compromise, not enough love, loyalty or obedience.
43 For a good tree bringeth not forth corrupt fruit; neither doth a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. 44 For every tree is known by his own fruit. For of thorns men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes. 45 A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.
Luke 6:43-45
If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:14
