Dear brothers and sisters in our Lord Jesus, part of the growing repentance remnant, cleansing as His Bride, getting ready for His soon return as our Bridegroom,
The Risen Christ is our soon-returning Bridegroom. He sees us as His Bride. We all fall short of the glory of God, and yet He loves us and wishes us to follow Him up His narrow path to holiness. He wishes us to be holy as He is holy.
To support this process, National Day of Repentance is continuing a 40 day repentance cleanse, leading up to a Global Day of Repentance in many nations on Sunday, April 30, 2023. God willing, using the model of Nehemiah, many of us also will sign a new Covenant, confessing where we have failed to honor His Word and Authority. We will pledge to humble ourselves, pray, seek His face and turn from our wicked ways to follow His Word. Using His solution in 2 Chronicles 7:13-14, the Covenant calls upon the Lord, in His Mercy, to hear from heaven, forgive our sins, and heal our lands.
In this forty day time of purification we are focusing not just on removing old sin patterns, but above all knowing Who our Bridegroom is. Jesus IS God; He is the Name above ALL Names. By each day becoming open to knowing His Name, ending with the Name above all Names, we will begin to grasp Who Jesus is, and will thus begin to see ourselves properly as His Bride.
Join in the 40 day repentance cleanse at any point. Begin today. To register please go here: www.globalrepent.com
-- and please sign the Covenant ! Our sister Kathleen in California wrote: "May this new covenant advance God's Holy Kingdom on earth as we all repent and cleanse ourselves from sin patterns and all unrighteousness while we await the coming of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, King of Kings and Lord of Lords. AMEN"
Day ten of the 40 days will begin on Friday, March 31.
Day Ten: Worship Him Continually
Name of God: El Kannah- Consuming Fire, Jealous God (Exodus 34:10, 12-15)
"' And He said: ' Behold, I make a covenant. Before all your people I will do marvels such as have not been done in all the earth, nor in any nation; and all the people among whom you are shall see the work of the LORD. For it is an awesome thing that I will do with you......Take heed to yourself, lest you make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land where you are going, lest it be a snare in your midst. But you shall destroy their altars, break their sacred pillars, and cut down their wooden images ( for you shall worship no other god, for the LORD, who name is JEALOUS, is a jealous God), lest you make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and they play the harlot with their gods and make sacrifice to their gods, and one of them invites you and you eat of his sacrifice...'"
Spend time alone with the Holy Spirit as you spiritually"dine" with Him, your Teacher, today (Revelation 3:20). He wishes you to become an overcomer. (Revelation 3:21).
Is there any hesitancy or doubt in you holding El Kannah- Consuming Fire, Jealous God in healthy fear, with reverence and profound respect? Take time with Him now and ask Him where this hesitancy or doubt began.
Do you believe in Him fully? We are to rely upon God who is a Consuming Fire, a Jealous God. We are not to make covenant with those who don't know Him. He is worthy of our worshiping Him continually! Jesus said to the Samaritan woman: " But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him."
Ask the Holy Spirit what more He can teach you as to where you may have doubted Him as El Kannah- Consuming Fire, Jealous God. To believe in Him fully is central to your faith. Jesus said in John 6: 27-29: " Do not labor for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to everlasting life, which the Son of Man will give you, because God the Father has set His seal on Him. Then they said to Him, ' What shall we do, that we may work the work of God?' Jesus answered and said to them, ' This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He sent.'"
Another confirmation is in His Word at 1 John 5: 3-4: " For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome. For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world--our faith. Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?"
As your Holy Spirit Teacher reveals any of this, if you are moved, take the opportunity to confess any sin. If you do, He will be faithful and just to forgive that sin and to cleanse you from all unrighteousness. 1 John 1:9. And then you can take the next step, and freely decide forever to remove that hesitancy by changing your mind, repenting, and replacing it with His Word, such as this one, in John 1:29: " The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, 'Behold!' The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world." Or these verses: " I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. Therefore let us, as many as are mature, have this mind; and if in anything you think otherwise, God will reveal even this to you. Nevertheless, to the degree that we have already attained, let us walk by the same rule, let us be of the same mind." (Philippians 3:14-16)
And let this be another guide for seeing El Kannah- Consuming Fire, Jealous God as Jesus, prophetically in His Word: Yeshua/ Jesus said that He was bringing FIRE!
John the Baptist says in Matthew 3: 11: " I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire."
And Yeshua/ Jesus said: " I came to send fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled!" Luke 12:49. And in Revelation 20: 7-10, after His saints reign with Christ for 1,000 years, satan will be released; and then God's fire will come down from heaven to destroy the enemy: " Now when the thousand years have expired, Satan will be released from his prison and will go out to deceive the nations which are in the four corners of the earth, God and Magog, to gather them together to battle, whose number is as the sand of the sea. They went up on the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city. And fire came down and devoured them. The devil, who deceived them, was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone where the beast and the false prophet are. And they will be tormented day and night forever and ever."
Let those Words be your guide today, and all days forward, as you walk on His path as a member of His Bride. May the joy of the Lord be your strength. By each day knowing His Name, ending with the Name above all Names, we will begin to grasp Who He is, and will thus begin to see ourselves properly as His Bride. Yeshua/ Jesus is our soon-coming Bridegroom.
Here is a simple prayer which you can use as a model: "Heavenly Father, in Yeshua/Jesus/ Name, help me to remove all that is old and inaccurate, a filter of Who You are. Help me to grow in Christ to know You as You are, to believe in You fully. Help me worship you continually. Please fill me afresh with Your loving Holy Spirit so that I may walk in Your fruits of the Holy Spirit, bringing salt and light to others, being a light so shining before men, that they may see good works and glorify You, Almighty God, in heaven."
