(This is not a complete understanding of heaven, but rather an understanding thus far revealed. There is so much more to see and enjoy! Thank You Father and Lord!)
In John 3: 13 Jesus was standing in heaven while standing in the earth. In Him and by Him heaven and earth was brought together. He filled in the gap. Yet in John 3 Jesus was talking and saying that “the Son of man which is in heaven”… speaking of himself as He dwelled in the earth also. So there was an understanding of what and where heaven truly was and is.
John 3:12-13
12 If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things? 13 And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven.
Where is Heaven…? God is Spirit. So is heaven. So if Jesus Christ is in heaven, and He is IN you, then heaven is there in you too… yet you are also in heaven…. but not all of heaven is revealed to you yet, because it is too awesome to take in at one moment. Read on to understand more.
Have you ever been in a meeting or just in your private time with the Lord, and the anointing begins to flow?
It is a dominion of Righteousness, Peace, Joy and contentment as the Holy Spirit carries us into God’s presence. You are “raptured” “caught-up” “swallowed up” into the presence of the Lord and His kingdom, yet, you are still in the earth and natural body.
The Lord is swallowing up your mortality in eternal life. In that moment, twinkling of an eye, a change takes place… Yet you are experiencing His presence that takes away all bondages, and sets your feet in His dominion where all sorrow flees, all lack disappears, and all is content. Our hearts are filled with love, real love for each other. Bodies are healed, miracles appear, situations and problems get corrected and fixed… eternal life abounds through the righteousness of Jesus Christ that affects all things. And no one wants to leave that meeting and go back to their natural “home.”
Home is where the Lord is, and the Lord is in heaven, now having made His home in our souls, causes us to be joined unto the Father which is in heaven too: Heaven and Earth brought together now in each of you, as His testimony and presence is manifested in and to you.
John 14:20-23 (Jesus is speaking) “At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you. He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me; and he that loveth me shall be love of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him…. and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.”
This is the place and dominion where the saints that have gone on before us, now assemble with us, even though we are still alive and remain in the earth. But Jesus Christ has made provision to bring us and them together, heaven and earth and all that is within them (Colossians 1:16-29). It is done.
Yet we can only enter if we have been redeemed by the blood of the Lamb, born again of His water and Spirit (John 3:3-5). In the twinkling of an eye is the time it takes to change us all, yet each of us in the Father’s own order (1 Corinthians 15:23,52).
The maturing part is a process of growing through experiences that the Father allows for our growth. We are growing up into the head, Ephesians 4 tells us. We are changing in every step and experience which the Lord puts before us to go through. Each step is an experience of the revealing of His Son to us. We go from Faith to Faith… Glory to Glory… and Victory to Victory. A little at a time we press into His kingdom.
Receiving the Lord’s kingdom is an awesome and powerful experience, so a little at a time the Father causes us to behold Him so we too may be changed out of our death clothes and into the garments of Jesus Christ – Righteousness.
As we behold Him, we are changed into the same image, yet it is by the Holy Spirit (Phil 3:21; 2 Cor 3:16-18*) We are raised out of our graves of death and sin, and resurrected by Eternal Life, that Holy Spirit working in us, just as He did in Jesus.
We are entering into the Kingdom of heaven where the Lamb of God sits upon His throne of Authority over all. God our Father is setting each of us within the body of His Son as it pleases Him… all for His purpose and working.
The Second Man has been raised from the grave… now we who Hear His Voice are being joined to the Head who is already risen, assembling together in this age, to allow the Savior to appear in and through His multi member body on earth and in heaven. We are His church, bride, wife, and body. He is the Head of us all. Our souls are the Lamb’s purchased possession.
The Anointing breaks the yoke of traditions, and barriers between the world of the earth and heaven.
The Holy Spirit is God our Father in the full salvation and victory of the Son for us. He is able to deliver us, and bring us fully cleansed and ready to experience the dominion of the Father and Son, even as we that are alive and remain interact with those that have gone on before us… yet only as the Father desires.
He has made spirits angels and ministers flames of fire, to work on our behalf, so that we may receive the fullness of our Salvation through Jesus Christ, Immanuel, God’s Son, Our Savior and Lord. Yet, Jesus tells us to worship the Father, ask of the Father in the name of the Son…or could say in the acknowledgement of all that the Son has done and Is. Now that is Respect and Honor to the King!
So if in and through the Son of God we are redeemed and have been joined unto the head, which is Christ Jesus, and have the Spirit of Christ in us… we walk in the earth with the Lord in us, then we also abide in the Lord who is in heaven. This is how Jesus walked on the earth, yet was in heaven, as it speaks in John 3:13. The Spirit of the Son was the Father, in Him, doing the work and never leaving Him. Jesus was reconciling… bringing the two worlds together, within and through Himself.
Colossians 1: 16-29 (pls read) For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: And he is before all things, and by him all things consist. And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence. For it pleased the Father that in him should all fullness dwell; And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven….. Christ in you, the hope of glory….
What a Mystery!!!
So it is possible for those ones that have received the Spirit of the Son in their own hearts, and worship the Father in spirit and in truth, to also walk on this earth, yet be in heaven also.
As Hebrews 12:22 begins to tell us “We are come unto Mount Zion…”…. It is a Mystery to many, but to the ones that have the Spirit of Christ in them, He will give you the understanding AND Experience of this present Truth.
1 John 5:20 And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.
Don’t let this shatter you… but instead REJOICE as the anointing is flowing and all hearts are praising the Lord for the Victory of the Lamb has made provision for us all… not just in heaven, but in this earth too: spiritually, materially, and monetarily.
He has redeemed us by the Blood of the Lamb, and the word of His Testimony is flowing from the Father in heaven into the earthen realms to declare the Righteousness of the Son.
God will not allow us to experience anymore than we can handle, yet He desires for you to receive all His kingdom and the kingdom you. This is powerful. This is home… our place to rest with Him … in the Son.
So the next time you are praising the Lord, remember you are opening the gates of praise so the King of Glory can reveal Himself to you…. Expect It.
For the Lord is dwelling in you… in His many member body, in the mountain that He so loves…….. the place called heaven.
It’s not the all-ness of heaven, but it is an experience of what is going on in heaven. “…thy kingdom come, thy will be done, as in heaven, so in earth…” Luke 11:2. Matthew 6:10 “…Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven…”
He birthed forth His kingdom, now certain ones are entering in to His kingdom… Luke 16:16, Luke 17:20-21, Hebrews 14:17….
Kingdom of Heaven can only be seen with the Eyes of the Born from Above ones. (John 3:3-5)
Psalm 24:7-10
7 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.
8 Who is this King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle.
9 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.
10 Who is this King of glory? The LORD of hosts, he is the King of glory. Selah.
Psalm 118:19-24
19 Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will go into them, and I will praise the LORD:
20 This gate of the LORD, into which the righteous shall enter.
21 I will praise thee: for thou hast heard me, and art become my salvation.
22 The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner.
23 This is the LORD's doing; it is marvelous in our eyes.
24 This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.
Psalm 87:2
2 The LORD loveth the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob.
Psalm 100:4
4 Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name.
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:
Amen.
