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 five of the 40 days will begin on Sunday, March 26.
Day Five: Love Him with all your heart
Name of God: El Olam- The Everlasting God or The Eternal God (Genesis 21: 33: " Then Abraham planted a tamarisk tree in Beersheba, and there called on the name of the LORD, the Everlasting God.")
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 Olan-The Everlasting God or The Eternal 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 love Him with all your heart? Have you left your first love, as did the loveless church in Ephesus? " Nevertheless I have this against you, that you have left your first love." (Revelation 2: 4). Ask the Holy Spirit what more He can teach you as to where you lost this love for the Lord. 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 John 18: 25,26: "O righteous Father! The world has not known You, but I have known You, and these have known that You sent Me. And I have declared to them Your name, and will will declare it, that the love with which You love Me may be in them, and I in them."
And let this be another guide: El Olam- The Everlasting God or The Eternal God (Genesis 21: 33: " Then Abraham planted a tamarisk tree in Beersheba, and there called on the name of the LORD, the Everlasting God.") 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."
