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.

-- 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".
And our sister Cecilia in Michigan wrote: I want no thing between my God and myself that would offend Him. I pray for Him to lead me. To pray for His people Israel and for His complete and perfect bride in all nations, as we are grafted in by His most capable hands. I am blessed to declare that I am a part of this covenant, this new covenant between Him and me, between God and us, His bride.

Day Twenty of the 40 days will begin on Monday, April 10.
Day Twenty: Submit to Him
Name of God : Atik Yogin-The Ancient of Days (Daniel 7:9)
"I watched till thrones were put in place, And the Ancient of Days was seated;
His garment was white as snow, And the hair of His head was like pure wool.
His throne was a fiery flame, Its wheels a burning fire; A fiery stream issued
And came forth from before Him. A thousand thousands ministered to Him,
Ten thousand times ten thousand stood before Him. The court was seated,
And the books were opened."
As the Ancient of Days, Atik Yogin, He urges us every day to submit to Him.
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 Atik Yogin-The Ancient of Days 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 to be zealous to repent every day to be ready for Him when He returns as our Bridegroom.
Ask the Holy Spirit what more He can teach you as to where you may have doubted Him as Atik Yogin-The Ancient of Days. To believe in Him fully is central to our 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.'"
Have you opened the "door" of your heart and mind to have Him come in and "dine" with you to have communion with Him and to "chew" on any old sin issues? If you've not opened the "door" of your heart and mind to "dine" with the Risen Christ/ Holy Spirit, today is the day 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 sin pattern by changing your mind, repenting, and replacing it with His Word, such as this one, in 2 Corinthians 7:1: "Therefore, having these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God."
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 Atik Yogin-The Ancient of Days as Jesus prophetically in His Word:
Daniel 7: 13-14 states: "'I was watching in the night visions. And behold, One like the Son of Man, Coming with the clouds of heaven! He came to the Ancient of Days, And they brought Him near before Him. Then to Him was given dominion and glory and a kingdom, That all peoples, nations, and languages should serve Him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion, Which shall not pass away, And His kingdom the one which shall not be destroyed.'"
In Revelation 1: 10-14 the description of Jesus parallels Atik Yogin the Ancient of Days: " I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s Day, and I heard behind me a loud voice, as of a trumpet, saying, "I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last,” and, “What you see, write in a book and send it to the seven churches which are in Asia: to Ephesus, to Smyrna, to Pergamos, to Thyatira, to Sardis, to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea.” Then I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. And having turned I saw seven golden lampstands, and in the midst of the seven lampstands One like the Son of Man, clothed with a garment down to the feet and girded about the chest with a golden band. His head and hair were white like wool, as white as snow, and His eyes like a flame of fire..."
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 submit to You, to grow in Christ to know You as You are, to believe in You fully. Help me become an overcomer, as You overcame. 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."
