2 Chronicles 20:20 And they rose early in the morning, and went
forth into the wilderness of Tekoa: and as they went forth, Jehoshaphat stood
and said, Hear me, O Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem; Believe in the Lord your God,
so shall ye be established; believe
his prophets, so shall ye prosper.
If you read the rest of the chapter
you’ll find that they were going through a tough time... a battle. But in verse 17 the word of the Lord to them
was to stand fast and believe in the Lord.
Here’s what v17 states:
v17 Ye shall not need to fight in this
battle: set yourselves, stand ye still, and see the salvation of the Lord with
you, O Judah and Jerusalem: fear not, nor be dismayed; tomorrow go out against
them: for the Lord will be with you.
Today we are in Grace; the Battle is
over and won; so HEAR what the Lord’s instructions for you are today, and WALK
in that FAITH of HIS Word for You… THEN
you will SEE the VICTORY of the Lord come forth to your Favor. BUT HEAR HIS INSTRUCTIONS… SEEK HIM on that … THEN GO …
BELIEVE in the Lord your God … So
shall you be ESTABLISHED. SET
in Place… Unmovable.
Ephesians 6:10-18 instructs of
standing fast in the armor of God which is the wisdom, understanding, and
knowledge of Jesus Christ! This IS the
LORD’S PRESENCE IN US – His Power in this World. (Romans 1:16-17)
So, When the Lord ESTABLISHES you In
Truth, You Can Not Be Moved... or depending on the circumstances, you can
say... Once the Blessings of the Lord
are ESTABLISHED in Your Heart, AND YOU IN THE BLESSINGS, then your outcome in
every situation will be BLESSINGS!
FAVOR! HONOR! VICTORY every time!
So how to be Established? First the LORD MUST REVEAL HIS WORD TO YOU… Then
there must be the Lord’s Understanding Revealed in Your Mind/Soul of His Word
and Will for your situation, which may come right away, or may require that you
spend time asking the Lord questions and LISTENING to HIS VOICE in revealing
the MEANING of His Word… wait until that Experience/Revealing is given to
you. Then BELIEVE and WALK in That
Understanding of His Word concerning your situation. Read 2 Chronicles 20:20 again.
Now read Psalm 24:1-2…
Psalm 24:1-2 The earth is the Lord’s,
and the fullness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.
v2 For he hath founded it upon the
seas, and established it upon the floods.
Once the Lord ESTABLISHES the Victory
for you, it is done… secured… unmovable.
YET Now He wants YOU to be ESTABLISHED
in the VICTORY… HOW? Read this...
Proverbs 3:19-20... The Lord by wisdom hath founded the earth; by understanding hath he established the heavens. By his knowledge the depths are broken up,
and the clouds drop down the dew.
UNDERSTANDING will ESTABLISH YOU IN
the LORD’S BLESSING. Read Matthew
13:18-23 below...
Matthew 13:18-23
v19 When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not,
then cometh the wicked one, and catcheth away that which was sown in his
heart. This is he which received seed by
the way side...
v20 But he that received the seed
into stony places, the same is he that heareth
the word, and anon with joy receiveth
it; v21 Yet hath he not root in himself, but
dureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the
word, by and by he is offended.
v23 But he that received seed into
the good ground is he that heareth
the word, and understandeth it;
which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty,
some thirty.
If you don’t understand what the Word
of the Lord means, then ask the Lord to reveal Himself to you so you may
understand the truth. If there is no revelation
(revealing/manifestation/appearing) of Jesus Christ within your soul/mind,
making your soul ‘revived to life’ again (quickening/resurrected), then it
falls to the ground, the way side, profiting you nothing (not mixed with
Faith), or it is as if you hear and receive the word with joy, but because
there is no root (understanding of it) to secure you, then the trials and cares
of the world choke out the benefits of the blessing.
Solution: Receive
the baptism by Jesus Christ of the Holy Spirit, the gift and promise of the
Father.
You will Need the Holy Spirit, which
is the Spirit of Truth, to open your eyes of understanding as He causes you to
hear and receive the revealing (Revelation) of Jesus Christ.
A Manifestation means an encounter.
John 14:21 Jesus says, He that hath my
commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall
be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
Your Encounter of the Lord is
no longer a word from the doctrines/traditions of man trying to be God; but
instead the experience(encounter) within
your soul of the manifestation of the Power of God which Is Jesus Christ
– God’s Salvation that was manifested in the Flesh, in the form of the sinful
man, yet was and is the Lamb of God, the Eternal Sacrifice that takes and took
away our sin, decay and death, so that we may LIVE in HIM who is the LORD, the
Quickening Spirit, that is LIFE ETERNAL today. That by HIS WILL we are ONE with
the ETERNAL GOD ALMIGHTY, yet as a child and student still being taught and
learning continuously of His and Our Kingdom, We abide in HIM who governs all
things, and we walk humbly in reverence of our Father and God of All… and you
and I could go on, and on, and on to Declare such Righteousness abounding!!!
A Teacher can never force themselves
on a student – in order for the student to prosper in the teaching, the student
has to be willing to be taught, AND Ready to make the time for the Teacher to
teach.
So, To the STUDENT: ASK of the Lord to give you: Wisdom, Understanding, and Knowledge of Jesus
Christ.
Ephesians 1:17-18 says the perfect
prayer to ask of the Father:
v17 That the God of our Lord Jesus
Christ, the Father of glory, may give
unto you the spirit of wisdom
and revelation in the knowledge of him:
v18 The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his
calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,...
Understanding
is PERFECT VISION… Perception… Comprehension, which comes
only by that Holy Spirit which is the Lord.
Receive His Word Today, and UNDERSTAND
(see clearly what he is saying and means), and BE ESTABLISHED IN THE PRESENT
TRUTH. (2 Peter 1:1-12)
Amen.
