Jacob’s Dream
Genesis 28:10 Then Jacob departed from Beersheba and went toward Haran. 11 He came to a certain place and spent the night there, because the sun had set; and he took one of the stones of the place and put it under his head, and lay down in that place. 12 He had a dream, and behold, a ladder was set on the earth with its top reaching to heaven; and behold, the angels of God were ascending and descending on it. 13 And behold, the Lord stood above it and said, “I am the Lord, the God of your father Abraham and the God of Isaac; the land on which you lie, I will give it to you and to your descendants. 14 Your descendants will also be like the dust of the earth, and you will spread out to the west and to the east and to the north and to the south; and in you and in your descendants shall all the families of the earth be blessed. 15 Behold, I am with you and will keep you wherever you go, and will bring you back to this land; for I will not leave you until I have done what I have promised you.” 16 Then Jacob awoke from his sleep and said, “Surely the Lord is in this place, and I did not know it.” 17 He was afraid and said, “How awesome is this place! This is none other than the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven.”
John 1.50 Jesus answered and said to him, “Because I said to you that I saw you under the fig tree, do you believe? You will see greater things than these.” 51 And He *said to him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, you will see the heavens opened and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man.”
Ephesians 2.1 And you were dead in your trespasses and sins in which you formerly walked according to the . course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, of the spirit that is now working in the sons of disobedience.
Ephesians 3.8 To me, the very least of all saints, this grace was given, to preach to the Gentiles the unfathomable riches of Christ, 9 and to bring to light what is the administration of the mystery which for ages has been hidden in God who created all things; 10 so that the manifold wisdom of God might now be made known through the church to the rulers and the authorities in the heavenly places.
Ephesians1:18 I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened, so that you will know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, 19 and what is the surpassing greatness of His power toward us who believe. These are in accordance with the working of the strength of His might 20 which He brought about in Christ, when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places, 21 far above all rule and authority and power and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in the one to come. 22 And He put all things in subjection under His feet, and gave Him as head over all things to the church, 23 which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.
Not only are we kings and priests, this is one humongous subject that even as Protestants has been lost on us.
The baptism in the Spirit has opened it up a lot. I mean, as evangelicals we rightly understood that the Catholic priest idea was a throwback to the Old Covenant lies of priesthood and laity. And we understood that each of us could be an ambassador to others in evangelism.
But running meetings in the Holy Spirit showed us how real this new priesthood is, with people given divine gifts to build the Body.
But that said, it’s only through ministries that have entered further like Ian Clayton, and people I refer to as thirdlevellers who now see that us being caught up experientially in the heavenlies is quite normal, the purpose for gathering, and where we experience being seated with Christ and part of His heavenly Court function.
No more do we pray up to heaven. We let the Holy Spirit bring us to the conviction that we are in Jesus Christ operating out of His Courts.
Whatsoever he bind will have been first bound in heaven, and whatsoever you loose shall have been loosed in heaven.
Psalm 133 states clearly that unity is not an option. The 40,000 CHRISTIAN denominations are actually the reason nothing moves down here....
When we see Psalm 133, we can progress to our priestly role in psalm 134 to blessing the earth, and psalm 149 to casting down all illegitimate rule.
Acts 2 only happened because the 120 gathered together, confessed their faults and were brought into Psalm 133 unity, upon which the Holy Spirit anointing was sent.
At the first ever sermon it says and Peter began to preach and all the other 11 stood with him.
Our unity is in Christ and to the extent that we each individually know we have died in Him and He lives as us. Typically our divisions are rightbrain fears and bitternesses and leftbrain dry doctrine fragments that are not properly washed in the Blood and with His Revelation eyesalve.

Why we need the baptism in the Spirit and fire? - A study by Chris Welch
The Anointing Oil for Priesthood
The gift of Christ includes the anointing that is now upon Him, and as he comes to be a resident inside you, guess where that anointing resides?
A description is in psalm 133...the priestly anointing oil.
This is the baptism in the Spirit that was first poured out on the day of Pentecost in Acts 2....
and as Jesus must reign until His enemies are made His footstool....then the anointing oil continues to flow ever since that day.
Baptism in the Spirit is only an option if you think it is. Nothing is forced on anybody....
but spiritually speaking, and here I speak in the same terms as the admonition to tell every man to repent....there is no spiritual option....but if we really don't want heaven and spiritual things nobody is there to force us....(apart from Catholics and the CIA)
but spiritually speaking the Holy Spirit and the baptism in the Spirit are no option....
Jesus whole work was to take the Jews first, out of the "outer courts " realms of their experience with God, and take them via the baptism in the Spirit into the "innercourts realm" of the heavenly Temple.
When the Jews weren't interested, apart from the first few thousands in the Jerusalem church, the gospel was thrown open to anybody in the gentile world who WAS interested.
They weren't expected to go through the hundreds and hundreds of years of life experience of Jews first, Jesus Christ included the Gentiles in the same experience straight away that He wanted to take the Jews into.
Christianity
The New Covenant
The new Covenant born again community
ONLY WORK in the realm of baptism in the Spirit and ofcourse new birth or John Chapter 3 spiritual rebirth.
There is no option. If you try to operate without the command to repent, be baptised and be filled to overflowing with the Spirit,you reproduce the Jewish synagogue idea of Rabbi and laity that all evangelical churches have.
Apart from a general experience of rebirth, there is nothing about an evangelical church that functions in the New Covenant.
They may have bought the early Mercedes Benz but it is still being pulled by a cart horse.
You NEED the Baptism in the Spirit to lead you into all Truth, and that includes the basic call to WALK the WAY, to LEARN THE TRUTH and to GET THE Life Jn 16.13 But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth.
CHURCH LIFE
You NEED the baptism in the Spirit to be able to run church. 1 Cor12
"Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit. 5 And there are varieties of ministries, and the same Lord. 6 There are varieties of effects, but the same God who works all things in all persons. 7 But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good." THERE IS NO COMMON GOOD without baptism in the Spirit. The NEEDS of the COMMON GOOD ARE SIMPLY NOT SERVED
You NEED the baptism in the Spirit to interpret what He has already Divinely caused to be written down. It was written in RUACH or breath of God, so it has to be translated from RUACH to be life to anybody.
1 Cor 2 Things which eye has not seen and ear has not heard,
And which have not entered the heart of man,
All that God has prepared for those who love Him.”
10 [d]For to us God revealed them through the Spirit; for the Spirit searches all things, even the depths of God. 11 For who among men knows the thoughts of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so the thoughts of God no one knows except the Spirit of God. ..................
But [f]a natural man does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually [g]appraised.
Baptism in the Spirit takes us out of the realm of natural or carnal man and into the "covered are of the heavenly tabernacle" where there is no natural light or sunlight. WE NEED the Spirit's Illumination in this realm or we are stuffed!!! But we are NOT an OLD COVENANT CONGREGATION , we are learning to be led by the Spirit of God as ones born of the Spirit. See John Chapter 3
WE NEED THE BAPTISM IN THE SPIRIT to experience UNITY,
in ONE LORD, ONE FAITH, ONE BAPTISM. Psalm 133
Ephesians 4
Therefore I, the prisoner of the Lord, implore you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling with which you have been called, 2 with all humility and gentleness, with patience, showing tolerance for one another in love, 3 being diligent to preserve the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. 4 There is one body and one Spirit, just as also you were called in one hope of your calling; 5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6 one God and Father of all who is over all and through all and in all.
SET APART FOR MINISTRY
WE NEED THE BAPTISM IN THE HOLY SPIRIT to know when people are ready for ministry
joints who are "working properly" Ephesians 4
Acts 13: 2 While they were ministering to the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, “Set apart for Me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.” 3 Then, when they had fasted and prayed and laid their hands on them, they sent them away.
4 So, being sent out by the Holy Spirit, they went down to Seleucia and from there they sailed to Cyprus.
WE NEED THE BAPTISM IN THE HOLY SPIRIT for evangelism
Revelation 22:17 The Spirit and the bride say, “Come.” And let the one who hears say, “Come.” And let the one who is thirsty come; let the one who wishes take the water of life without cost.
For Healing the sick, casting out demons, conducting spiritual warfare, for the miraculous gift of utterance in preaching, also for the gifts of word of wisdom and knowledge to help and deliver people completely unknown to us.
NOT BY MIGHT NOR BY POWER BUT BY MY SPIRIT SAYS THE LORD
Then the angel who was speaking with me returned and roused me, as a man who is awakened from his sleep. 2 He said to me, “What do you see?” And I said, “I see, and behold, a lampstand all of gold with its bowl on the top of it, and its seven lamps on it with seven spouts belonging to each of the lamps which are on the top of it; 3 also two olive trees by it, one on the right side of the bowl and the other on its left side.” 4 Then I said to the angel who was speaking with me saying, “What are these, my lord?” 5 So the angel who was speaking with me answered and said to me, “Do you not know what these are?” And I said, “No, my lord.” 6 Then he [a]said to me, “This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel saying, ‘Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,’ says the Lord of hosts. 7 ‘What are you, O great mountain? Before Zerubbabel you will become a plain; and he will bring forth the top stone with shouts of “Grace, grace to it!”’”
He is describing the middle area or first covered area of the heavenly Tabernacle, wherein is the candlestick.
This preeminently is the function of the LOCAL CHURCH
meeting in the Name of Jesus
and being accelerated into full growth as sons as the first disciples were, as described by the third area of the Temple the Holiest Place.
PREPARED FOR EPHESIANS 6 WARFARE
The whole first 5 chapters of Ephesians prepares for Ephesians 6
Warfare
To UNMASK the secondheavens, and the fallen principalities and powers there
to paralyse their usurped rulership over nations
to reclaim our rightful earth under the Lord and Creator Psalm 24
to say to all ancient curses and boundaries : Be lifted up ye Ancient Doors and Let the King of Glory Come In.
FINAL SUMMARY
THERE IS NO OPTION AT ALL ABOUT BAPTISM IN THE SPIRIT.
Without baptism in the Spirit....we see human and spiritual monstrosities such as all the denominations including Catholicism
We see UNPREPARED ministries
We see churches that remain in Old Covenant worship with one leader doing everything
We see Churches exercising no authority and effect over localities, nations and continents, but instead we see the power of the enemy's people grow stronger and usurp more and more territory and laws
we see very few people properly born again and filled with the Spirit and learning to function in the Melchizedek order under their Head King Jesus.

The Covenantal Walk of Psalms 130 through 134

The psalms of Ascent are an incredible study. I have blogged a whole post on them:
http://080808onnowto.blogspot.co.uk/2012/12/gods-building-companygbc-psalms-120-134.html
Psalm 120 describes the negatives which drive us to find an answer. Originally being outer people, we naturally have already formulated that what we want are outer solutions, but God who is wise knows what we are really after is inner answers. Inner answers control the outer world.
Psalms 120- 130 describe some of our story en route to these inner discoveries.
When does redemption occur?
One of the perennial puzzles among Christians is if Passover is the start of our God story, and actually includes the event known as the supernatural tearing of the Veil, how come the actual Day of Atonement is so much later in the Jewish year? It is the start of the last Feast, the Feast of Tabernacles?
Psalm 130 seems pretty penitent, how come it isn't the first psalm of the Ascents?
See, what initially drives us to God is really just the beginning of our tale. We become believers. We become Christians. We experience what 1 John 2 describes as our Child stage of spiritual discovery. The forgiveness of the Lord is real to us. We gaze upon the Passover Cross and we receive forgiveness through the Blood shed by Jesus Christ.
But this is really not our story. This is Christ's. As Daniel Yordy and others have pointed out God is giving us a story. We are our own story. And by psalm 130 we learn Christ inwardly. Psalm 120 taught us forgiveness inwardly, but God is about producing a race of co-brethren, people who actually know Christ grown within them. A people who operate in the same way as Christ. Matthew 5 explains some of the awful awful paths we go down, but as real as childbirth pains lead to the reality of a child, so Christ says we give birth to the reality of the Christ person within us. Yes this is a mystery. It is one of the mysteries labelled as such in the New Testament.
The Day of Atonement happens much later, after we come to a different realisation. I not only need Christ for forgiveness....I need Him in the whole of me...to do anything. I realise the lie of independence and secularism. The lie of the middle man of Genesis 3. The posturing independent self who is meant to then choose between right and wrong. Except through story, God convinces us this very position IS BOGUS. I have only one choice. To have Satan live by me,using my vessel, or to have Christ live by me, again using my container, my vessel.
Adonai, I call to you from the depths;
2 hear my cry, Adonai!
Let your ears pay attention
to the sound of my pleading.
3 Yah, if you kept a record of sins,
who, Adonai, could stand?
4 But with you there is forgiveness,
so that you will be feared.
5 I wait longingly for Adonai;
I put my hope in his word.
6 Everything in me waits for Adonai
more than guards on watch wait for morning,
more than guards on watch wait for morning.(excerpt)
DEPTHS!
PLEADING
LONGINGLY
WAITS>>>MORE THAN GUARDS WAIT FOR THE MORNING
desperation in the extreme....utter utter weakness and helplessness
This is altogether different from being desperate for forgiveness....this is being
desperate that I can do nothing other than sin...my whole being is bent in this direction.
Some crash right into this, like Mary Magdalene....he who is forgiven much loves much.
Some like the rest of the disciples took longer.
The Truth of the day of Atonement.
The Truth of the Cross as related in John Bunyan's Pilgrims Progress a good way into the book
The Truth of Psalm 130 way way after Psalm 120....
is really when the KINGDOM STARTS.
Here is what it looks like.
Psalm 131 states you are wounded...
Like Jacob after Peniel you will limp for the rest of your days.
In this manner....
Adonai, my heart isn’t proud;
I don’t set my sight too high,
I don’t take part in great affairs
or in wonders far beyond me.
2 No, I keep myself calm and quiet,
like a little child on its mother’s lap —
I keep myself like a little child. or as a weaned child.
Weaned means, we are nolonger the central person in the universe.
A baby: I get hungry. I get fed. I am happy again.
We content ourselves with the "next thing" that Christ is doing through us. No more. No less.
This is the very same walk as Jesus. "I only do what I see the Father doing."
Psalm 130 and Psalm 131 are foundational to the life of the Kingdom. Yes other things up to now have been Christian. Have been God. We have blessed others. They have blessed us. But it is now the KINGDOM truly kicks in. We are down to the Rock. To Jesus as my sole source of Life. Before, some measure of all that we were doing was on sand. This helps to explain why such a lot of Christian things appear to implode. That which is built on Rock...may be pruned...but it cannot implode, it is in Christ.
These are individual foundations. They have to occur personally within EACH KINGDOM SAINT....but here's the shocker....in the next two psalms we find we have COME HOME to other walkers in the Covenant. We were never alone. The KINGDOM IS, and always has been CORPORATE.
But you can't BUILD corporate. YOU BUILD by speaking Word to individuals, who then COME HOME to the ROCK which is Christ, the original and ONLY SOURCE OF LIFE IN THE UNIVERSE. All other forms of life are derived forms of this one life...but if you want the TRUE form FIRST HAND....FRESH FROM THE FACTORY...it Has to come from God through Jesus.
"I am the Way(Your STORY), the Truth (of all that you are NOT and All that I am in you) and the LIFE (fully forming itself within you organically as you keep believing upon me by faith)"
For five centuries since perhaps the lowest ebb of the church world wide,since Martin Luther's faith stand, the Church has been picking a fresh corporate path along the psalm of Ascents. Pentecostalism began as being quite an individual experience. A baptism in the Holy Spirit. The later charismatic move through all the church denominations and out among the fresh independent house churches began to renew their vision as Christ building His Body. Not just piles of unrelated stones, but stones knit together, relating in love and faith.
I could see, and I told a leader so, that until at least the 90s, the whole move was built on jelly. There was no real firm foundation, because the inner excavation surrounding the truths of what went wrong in Genesis 3 hadn't been plumbed.
Some had begun, and really to this day, unless I am very much mistaken, this is where they dwell...the glory of psalm 130 and 131...but no further.
Christ in me is insisting that we go further. And Fred Pruitt himself caught something of a whiff of this new Priesthood order that Jesus instituted after His baptism in the Jordan.
http://080808onnowto.blogspot.co.uk/2011/09/fot9-change-in-priesthood.html
“I will not enter the house where I live
or get into my bed,
4 I will not allow myself to sleep
or even close my eyes,
5 until I find a place for Adonai,
a dwelling for the Mighty One of Ya‘akov.” Jacob
For Adonai has chosen Tziyon,
he has wanted it as his home.
14 “This is my resting-place forever,
I will live here because I so much want to......
Everyone that has seemed to rediscovered the great Union truths of us being Vine branches to His Vine, and this includes Daniel Yordy who has to be one of the most farthest seeing of all, fails to see what Paul sees in Romans.
The story is Jesus gathered out from many nations, but ONE with, no dividing wall of hostility with , Israel, who eventually look upon Him who, they have pierced.
Their Unity is our Unity, Jesus in Us in God as a heavenly community. God the All in All. Jerusalem literally will manifest the Spirit Word spoken over it in Psalm 48....the joy of the whole earth.. But current israel is boobytrapped. Ezekiel 28 uses the term briars and declares itself ruled from Sidon....or as it is in fact Tel Aviv area.
Psalm 133 is an incredible thing. It is unity but it is entirely within the context of the Holy Spirit having already established His Covenantal story, His covenantal walk in His people. That's why it couldn't work before. When Jesus announced His Corporate Word of John 17, the very next day the disciples all ran away apart from John.
Psalm 133 is a miracle. The miracle of the Gentile Mount Hermon dew falling on Mount Zion. I believe this is literal, but this picture is repeated over and over. God unites in that which is separated and in that which is impossible in man. The other picture is Aaron. Who is Aaron? Effectively the first high priest. Why does it refer back to the first office, and why not the rest of the Levites? Because this indicates the corporate High Priest, the Body of Jesus in the earth, binding that which can be bound and loosing that which can be loosed. We as a Body share the anointing oil of the Priest of the Order of Melchizedek, the One who ever lives before the Father to make intercession.
Psalm 134 is this new Priesthood going into action while "standing by Night" in the coming events.
The same spirit of psalm 132 is upon me to stir up the individual stones and say you have no option. The Spirit is stirring stones to build a Body on better foundations. A Covenant not made with pen and ink, but one drawn in the Blood of a Saviour and energised and upheld by the indestructible life of Christ
Heb 7:16 who has become such not on the basis of a law of [g]physical requirement, but according to the power of an indestructible life. We are not a Body or church , like a club, to live unto ourselves, just for the sake of it. No this is specific. We are being raised as a particular priesthood with specific tasks. There is absolutely no option of living unto ourselves. Even just of sharing on an individual basis of the truths of Psalms 120-130. No God is on the move. God Himself is breathing, is breathing His breath and prophecy into piles of rattling dead bones, and saying Bones LIVE.
Take your place priesthood. Kings and Priests of our God. All hell is lining up to prevent the people of God from taking this seriously. If they do, Darkness knows it is finished.

Imagine - The Third Level Version.
JOHN LENNON
"Imagine"
Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...
You may say I'm a dreamerI wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one
Third Level Annotations...
Imagine there's no separation from heaven as lived now, with Christ living as us, from a future heaven where all we do is relocate bodily, or receive new bodies in the crowning triumph of Christ's completed work.
Imagine no more dread of hell or separation, because the Knowledge of the Glory of God covers the earth as the waters cover the seas. No more Genesis 3 lies about an evil Father who is holding out on us, but only the knowledge that God has always been mad on us, has always been for us. Even when sin did occur, He initiated the questioning with such pain in His heart(Adam where are you?)...because He felt the separation more dreadfully than even we did. And straight away He'd arranged a temporary covering for us that involved other parts of creation dying in our stead, until the one true covering came, that would cover every single transgression that ever was or ever will be, namely after sending His Son to die in our place.
Imagine all people everywhere only living in the Now of heaven again, not frittering their lives away in remorse at what might have been, not hoping feebly in some never never land promise of what might still be, because everyone is 100% consumed in what Christ is operating through them now, fully AS THEM, and IN THEIR FORM...... knowing
"No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him"--Imagine there's no countries with separate allegiances, separate competing agendas, only groups of diverse originality to contribute to the whole. The former need to fragment nations at Babel is no more, because the mindless drunkenness that comes from a humankind deluded and fixated in the utter lie that a separate existence from the Life of God could ever occur, and which corporately had such a false power and lying energy that literally any wild plan that could be thought up, could virtually be accomplished....but would drag the future further and further into its black hole of godlessness, duplicity, faithlessness.... All this need for fragmentation has now disappeared in the third level knowledge that Life, true Life, has a Cross in it. True life is sacrificial. It is self for others.In this knowledge is true freedom, which needs no corporate fragmentation.
Imagine no religion. Only Life. That form of pasty replica of true relationship with the One Living One who always existed. The formats that replicated themselves as Law Rulebooks. The manifestations of all fake imitations of the One who spoke time and space creation into being. Whether the millionfold Hindu dreams, the fake Jewish and Christian dreamery, the Allah concept,the Sikh,the Krishna imageries....the twisted confusion of Masonry ,witchcraft,druidery....the pagan ideal of a Lucifer, a Light bearing Messiah...who is no Messiah for he leaves mankind in their sins and only demands absolute slavery and mindless worship...
All these images, dreams,philosophies disappearing like morning fog before the reality of humans
Living in the One True Father,in whom dwells Jesus,In whom dwells the Holy Spirit,In which agape community the God tabernacled mankind find their home and their true identity...
not rehearsing endlessly 5 pillars of wisdom, Christian services where one figure paid by tithe speaks at you,books of laws of desperate attempts to find oneness with their god, their deity, their image made in likeness to man....
All this shrivelled to nothing before a Living New Covenant written across the chests of living beings totally in love with the God that they know, they love they touch. No more buildings, for they ARE the buildings. No more to be added, because Christ is the Cornerstone,
He is the capstone with the two cries of Grace,Grace to it!
Grace of forgiveness, of realignment
Grace of complete Union, complete identity rediscovered.
Imagine there's no possessions...
or better still, what John Lennon couldn't himself live
like in Acts 4:32-33
All the believers were one in heart and mind. No one claimed that any of their possessions was their own, but they shared everything they had.
So they had possessions....but weren't claiming them as solely their own.
Anyone who has lived in marxist communities
or Christian communities knows that if no one claims ownership, all
possessions resemble the Council Houses here in Leigh Park which are rented but not owned. No one takes responsibility or pride in them for their maintenance. Someone wrote "Ownership is theft"....But the truth is "Non-ownership is destruction."
You cannot be in one heart and mind with other people who are themselves still fragmented. Our own personal Unity comes within the One who is One. God is One. God is Love.God never Lies. And God remains both always the same BUT always Filled to the Brim with Newness of Life. A Community that is tucked up in this identity will find it easy to share possessions as any has need. Not even John Lennon could do this.
Imagine a brotherhood of man. "The brotherhood of man makes no sense without a Fatherhood".
At the moment put one man with fears alongside another man with fears and they will make up a brotherhood alright. They will yield up to one another things that are sacred and should never be yielded up. But fearful men and women cannot help themselves. So communities are formed locked in fear.
So when you try to help an African community, you discover many doors that you have to pass your aid through....and it is not simply a matter of bypassing those doors, because you see at a fundamental level that African has yielded certain rights over himself and his community that should never have been shared. And so it is too in the West. So it is in China.
And for this reason Babylon remains....a world of fragmented nations trying desperately to unify....but the Union on the INSIDE has never been sorted.
But I believe in the third Level of growth.
I believe in God tabernacling with His people.
I believe in Psalm 133.
I don't imagine this. I have lived it. For long enough periods to know it is on its way, though I see only a cloud the size of a man's hand....
I see in my spirit already the DOWNPOUR.
Psalm 133
A song of ascents. Of David.
1 How good and pleasant it is
when God’s people live together in unity!
when God’s people live together in unity!
2 It is like precious oil poured on the head,
running down on the beard,
running down on Aaron’s beard,
down on the collar of his robe.
3 It is as if the dew of Hermon
were falling on Mount Zion.
For there the LORD bestows his blessing,
even life forevermore.
running down on the beard,
running down on Aaron’s beard,
down on the collar of his robe.
3 It is as if the dew of Hermon
were falling on Mount Zion.
For there the LORD bestows his blessing,
