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 calling for 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. 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 will focus 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.
Day two of the 40 days will begin on Thursday, March 23.
Day Two: Repent to come into His Kingdom
Name of God: Yahweh-I AM, The Self-Existent One (Exodus 3: 14-15: " And God said to Moses, ' I AM WHO I AM.' And He said, ' Thus you shall say to the children of Israel, 'I AM has sent me to you.' Moreover God said to Moses, ' Thus you shall say to the children of Israel: ' The LORD God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you. This is My name forever, and this is My memorial to all generations.'")
Spend time alone with the Holy Spirit as you spiritually"dine" with Him, your Teacher, today (Revelation 3:20)
Is there any hesitancy or doubt in you holding Yahweh- I AM, The Self-Existent One, in healthy fear, with reverence and profound respect? Take time with Him now and ask Him where this hesitancy or doubt began.
Have you repented to come into His Kingdom? Have you truly converted from the world and the flesh? Ask Him what more He can teach you. As He reveals this, if you are moved, take the opportunity to confess that 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 in Matthew 4: 17: "Repent, the Kingdom of heaven is at hand."
And let this be another guide: Exodus 3: 14: "" And God said to Moses, ' I AM WHO I AM.' And He said, ' Thus you shall say to the children of Israel, 'I AM has sent me to you.' " 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.
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. 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, our Father, Almighty God, in heaven."
