1 John 1:9 If we confess our
sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from
all unrighteousness.
Many have not continued their
walk because they don’t realize there is more to “enter into” of the kingdom of
God. Yes, you are anchored in Christ. Done deal. Yet there is a growing up into, and a
maturing (or perfecting) of the saints.
From faith to faith. From glory
to glory. Changing of garments.
We could not handle the receiving
of Jesus Christ and the Father in the fullness........ALL AT ONCE. Have you ever been in an anointed meeting and
the presence of the Savior is swallowing you up? All cares are gone. Everything is resolved. The Comforter has wrapped His arms around you
and you are in His heavenly realm. You
don’t want to leave. No one does. This is only a taste of the fullness you are
to eventually experience. But we need
His fellowship for it nourishes us and strengthens us to continue in each day's
issues here in this earthen realm.
Thus He encourages us to seek Him
more, so HE may INCREASE and the carnal falls away. So in the Wisdom of the Father, we are Washed
and Changed and Received by Him, a little at a time. From one revealing of the Son – Transforms
us.... to the next revealing of the Son – Changed Some More.....
Today we can Walk in HIS GLORY
and Heavenly Realm, just at Ephesians 2:6 says (and other places too). We become members of His body that HE works
through to reach others. HE and WE are
One. One Mind. One Spirit. Perfect
Harmony. The Light that shines in the
world.
In 1 John 1:9, it states to
confess your sins and Jesus/God forgives you.
But the truth doesn’t stop there and neither should we... we must press
in and on. How? By allowing the Lord to WASH you and CLEANSE
you from the sins.
Look at these two scriptures...
Ephesians 2:5-6 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with
Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly
places in Christ Jesus:...
Ephesians 5:26-27 ...and gave himself for it; That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of the water by
the word, That he might present it to himself a
glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it
should be holy and without blemish.
We were dead in sins and Christ
joins with us in our sinful state to establish us (make us, set us) holy and
unblameable before God. Done deal.
Yet we find that God wants to
release us from the effects of sin and heal our soul from that carnal spirit
that always sinned. God is washing us by
speaking and revealing His Son Jesus Christ to us. As He appears and is made known to us one
revelation at a time, we too, are changed from death to life.
The Engrafted Word in our soul is
bringing forth after its kind.
The old garments of sin and death
are replaced with His Garment of Righteousness and Eternal Life. Out of darkness and into Life.... without
spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that You should be holy and without
blemish.
So during this process of Washing
and Cleansing us, GRACE abounds as we walk in FAITH of the HOPE that Christ
Jesus the Saviour and Salvation of our Father is working IN US and presenting
us to the Father, Glorious and Victorious.
Here are other scriptures to read
on your own that will also confirm and make clearer His process:
John
6:63; John 15:3; 2 Corinthians 5:4-5; 2
Corinthians 4:14; Ephesians 2:5-6; Philippians 3:21; 2 Corinthians 3:16-18;
Romans 1:16-17; John 1:12-14; John 1:12-14; 1 Peter 1:22-23; James 1:18,21;
Colossians 1:26-27 and many more.
So Allow the Lord time with you
to Reveal and introduce His Son who is Now In you... to raise you up out of
your carnal grave and carnal grave clothes.
Amen.
