Truths of Revival - God’s Priorities 2 (notes)

Truths of Revival - God’s Priorities 2

God Has Priorities

These are events, issues and subjects that are keys in the kingdom of heaven that affect us on the earth today and will guide us into our destiny.

The Church

In order to fulfill our purpose we must adhere to God’s Priorities.

The Blood of Jesus

  • Why is the Blood of Jesus so important to God?
  • The Word tells us that life is in the blood and without the shedding of blood there is no removal of sin. So in order to have a relationship with God we must have our sin removed. Only the Blood of Jesus can do this. This is why God said, there is no other way to be reconciled to Him. Jesus is the Way; His Blood is what clears the way for us.

Communion with God

Leaven is a type of sin and during the feast of unleavened bread they would eat unleavened bread, representing sin pardoned. Under the new covenant, leavened bread was used because God provided justification. Instead of SIN, FAULT AND FAILURE, God sees, through the covering He provided, HOLINESS, BLAMELESSNESS AND PERFECTION.

Those Who Choose rebellion and idolatry voluntarily move out from His covering. Those who choose obedience instead of rebellion voluntarily stay under His covering because they choose to love and serve God above self and the desire to sin.

Heb. 10:14-17

For by that one offering He made forever perfect in the sight of God all those whom He is making holy.”

“And the Holy Spirit testifies that this is so, for He said, ‘This is the agreement I will make with the people of Israel, though they broke their first agreement I will write my laws into their minds so that they will always know my will, and I will put my laws in their hearts so that they will want to obey them.’ And then He adds, ‘I will never again remember their sins and lawless deeds.’”

Jesus Is Alive

Not only is He alive, but it is already written down in God’s book that we who are His will follow after Him in great resurrection.

Believing in the resurrection of Jesus is what Justifies us. (Romans 10:9-10)

Our Prayer

Should be, come Holy Spirit, and He will come and fill us with the Glory of God.

The Glory of God transforms us from glory to glory. II Cor. 3:17

The Coming of The Holy Spirit

Take the grain, grind it into flour, and turn it into bread. Put some leaven in it because the church will never be without sin or evil. God has it covered, but on the inside of the covering where you live, sin often crops up.

He covers His church even though sin (leaven) is present.

Jesus Is The One

Who baptizes us in the Holy Spirit and it is a baptism in fire (glory and purification for power) in our ministry to the world!

Sound The Trumpet the Good News is Jesus defeated the Devil, stripped his army of their weapons, rose with the keys of hell and death and has made it possible for us to be in fellowship with God until the day we stand before Him.

People need to hear this today. It is our job to sound the trumpet of the Good News.

Atonement

When we are born again God’s Spirit gives us new life from heaven, our probation does not just expire, it is canceled.

God Desires us to be with Him forever

The return of Jesus for His church is the great hope of the child of God.
