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.
Spend time with your Teacher, the Holy Spirit Who loves you!
Day four of the 40 days will begin on Saturday, March 25.
Day Four: Respond to His Call on your life
Name of God: El Shaddai-The All-Sufficient One, God Almighty (Genesis 17: 1-2: "When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the LORD appeared to Abram and said to him, ' I am Almighty God; walk before Me and be blameless. And I will make My covenant between Me and you, and will multiply you exceedingly.'")
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 El Shaddai-The All-Sufficient One, God Almighty, in healthy fear, with reverence and profound respect? Take time with Him now and ask Him where this hesitancy or doubt began.
Have you responded to His Call on your life? Have you repented first to come into His Kingdom? Have you truly converted from the world and the flesh? Have you then asked Him what is His call on your life? John 15:16 applies not just to those first twelve disciples but also to each of us: " You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you." Ask the Holy Spirit what more He can teach you as to His call on your life. As He reveals this, if you are moved, take the opportunity to confess that sin that you failed to follow His call. 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 John 14: 16,18: " And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that he may abide with you forever---the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you, and will be in you. I will not leave you orphans; I will come to you."
And let this be another guide: El Shaddai-The All-Sufficient One, God Almighty (Genesis 17: 1-2: "When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the LORD appeared to Abram and said to him, ' I am Almighty God; walk before Me and be blameless. And I will make My covenant between Me and you, and will multiply you exceedingly.'") 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."
