The past prophetic works are precious jewels and will stand the test of time.
    Our Heavenly Father through His Glorified Son is in charge of the past, the present
    and the future. He and He alone governs over His Word and sets the day and hour
    for its purposes.  With His blessings, we have experienced great and mighty
    fulfillment of many of the prophetic messages posted in this website!

    You will find a rich resource of encouragement and enlightenment as you travel
    through  the Holy Scriptures and Links to other articles and web pages!
    They are the wisdom of God and are applicable not only to the months and years
    in which they were released to the 1st century church, but hold promise, clarity
    and practical insights TODAY into what we can expect as we seek the Heart of God!
    We pray you will receive these dynamic scriptures in spiritual understanding
    of the Light of Truth, Light of Life and Light of the Spirit as revealed in the WORD
    and by the HOLY SPIRIT.

    Let us be certain of who God sees us to be through the Redemptive Revelation
    of Father God, revealed in, by, and through His Begotten Son, Jesus Christ!
    This is a very dynamic message for us to slow down and reflect upon each
    individual word and phrase!

    Jesus chose twelve disciples to walk closely with Him as His friends, witnesses,
    and specially appointed apostles— (forerunners) those who would go forth
    proclaiming the revelation of His Kingdom and the Good News of Redemption.

    Their apostolic calling established a pattern that continues beyond the first
    generation! That's you and me! While the Twelve held a unique foundational
    place in the early Church, the commission to bear witness to Jesus Christ
    and proclaim His Kingdom was never intended to end with them.

    Every generation of believers is called to receive the revelation of Christ,
    to know who we are in Him, and to become living witnesses of His Redemptive
    work! He gave each of us the message and power of the ministry of Reconciliation! 
    We are not merely spectators of what Christ began—we are participants in His
    continuing work of Reconciliation, Kingdom Proclamation, and the Making
    of Disciples to carry on the "Pattern of the Son!"

    The commission therefore reaches us today:
     • to go where Christ sends us,
     • speak what He has revealed,
     • demonstrate His love,
     • and faithfully proclaim the Good News of the Kingdom.

    We become, in our own generation, witnesses of the Light of Christ
    —carrying His truth, His life, and the presence of the Holy Spirit
   into the world around us!

    The question is not merely, “Who were the Twelve?”
    but, “Who does Father God reveal us to be in His Son—
    and how will we faithfully live out that revelation in our generation?”

[Note: apostles are chosen and sent to carry and deliver special messages      for a predetermined purpose.  They fully represent the Sender.      In the case of the initial 12 eye-witness divinely chosen "apostolos,"      the Gospel Message of Christ and the charge to "spread the Good News globally      remains today: The Lord entrusted the revelation of the mysteries of Christ      and His Kingdom, "The Gospel of Jesus Christ" to the first century "creatures."      These men were chosen to lay the foundations for His Church as He taught      and demonstrated to them!      In His Ascension, He gave Gifts to the Church that they be empowered and      equipped by the abiding Holy Spirit to do the works of the Ministry.      Works of the ministry are functional Gifts!      These five functioning ministries are defined as the gifts of the      Ephesians 4:11 [the "function" gifts of Christ given to men (non-gender)      to equip the Body and to build up the Body to do the works of ministry.]       And His gifts were [varied; He Himself appointed and gave men to us]     some to be apostles [function] (special messengers, forerunners, vanguards),     some prophets [function](inspired preachers, expounders and interpreters),     some evangelists [function] (preachers of the Gospel, traveling missionaries),     some shepherds [function] (pastors/overseers of His flock)     and teachers [function] (instructors to impart knowledge by precept, example     or to  lead into experience.)     Mark 16:15 (AMP)     And He said to them, Go into all the world and preach and publish openly     the good news (the Gospel) to every creature [of the whole human race].          2 Corinthians 5:17 (AMP)     Therefore if any person is [ingrafted] in Christ (the Messiah) he is a new creation     (a new creature altogether); the old [previous moral and spiritual condition]     has passed away. Behold, the fresh and new has come!

     Romans 8 Amplified Bible (AMP)
     Therefore, [there is] now no condemnation (no adjudging guilty of wrong) for those
     who are in Christ Jesus, who live [and] walk not after the dictates of the flesh,
     but after the dictates of the Spirit.
     2 For the law of the Spirit of life [which is] in Christ Jesus [the law of our new being]
     has freed me from the law of sin and of death.
     3 For God has done what the Law {HGMI note: Law of Sin and death} could not do,
     [its power] being weakened by the flesh [the entire nature of man without
     the Holy Spirit]. Sending His own Son in the guise of sinful flesh
     and as an offering for sin, [God] condemned sin in the flesh [subdued, overcame,
     deprived it of its power over all who accept that sacrifice],
     4 So that the righteous and just requirement of the Law might be fully met in us
    who live and move not in the ways of the flesh but in the ways of the Spirit
    [our lives governed not by the standards and according to the dictates of the flesh,
    but controlled by the Holy Spirit].
    5 For those who are according to the flesh and are controlled by its unholy desires
    set their minds on and pursue those things which gratify the flesh, but those who
    are according to the Spirit and are controlled by the desires of the Spirit
    set their minds on and seek those things which gratify the [Holy] Spirit.
     -->  Romans 8:6 is continued below...

{Note: the following three (3) actions of the devil are attributes     of death focused on every facet of life and being.     They are the "powers" of the World of Darkness.     These demonic powers separate man from God and His promised blessings.}     John 10:10 (AMP)     The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy.      I came that they may have and enjoy life,     and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows).     {Note: "Remaining," (always being separated ) from God     is the place of DARKNESS on earth and in heaven!}

    Romans 8:6...
    --> 6 Now the mind of the flesh [which is sense and reason without the Holy Spirit]
    is death [death that comprises all the miseries arising from sin, both here and
    hereafter]. But the mind of the [Holy] Spirit is life and [soul] peace [both now and
    forever].
    7 [That is] because the mind of the flesh [with its carnal thoughts and purposes]
    is hostile to God, for it does not submit itself to God’s Law; indeed it cannot.
    8 So then those who are living the life of the flesh [catering to the appetites and
    impulses of their carnal nature] cannot please or satisfy God, or be acceptable to Him.
    9 But you are not living the life of the flesh, you are living the life of the Spirit,
    if the [Holy] Spirit of God [really] dwells within you [directs and controls you].
    But if anyone does not possess the [Holy] Spirit of Christ, he is none of His
    [he does not belong to Christ, is not truly a child of God].
    10 But if Christ lives in you, [then although] your [natural] body is dead by reason
    of sin and guilt, the spirit is alive because of [the] righteousness
    [that He imputes to you].
    11 And if the Spirit of Him Who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you,
    [then] He Who raised up Christ Jesus from the dead will also restore to life your
    mortal (short-lived, perishable) bodies through His Spirit Who dwells in you.
    12 So then, brethren, we are debtors, but not to the flesh [we are not obligated
    to our carnal nature], to live [a life ruled by the standards set up by the dictates]
    of the flesh.
    13 For if you live according to [the dictates of] the flesh, you will surely die.
    But if through the power of the [Holy] Spirit you are [habitually] putting to death
    (making extinct, deadening) the [evil] deeds prompted by the body,
    you shall [really and genuinely] live forever.
    14 For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God.
    15 For [the Spirit which] you have now received [is] not a spirit of slavery
    to put you once more in bondage to fear, but you have received the Spirit of adoption
    [the Spirit producing sonship] in [the bliss of] which we cry, Abba (Father)! Father!
    16 The Spirit Himself [thus] testifies together with our own spirit, [assuring us]
    that we are children of God.
    17 And if we are [His] children, then we are [His] heirs also: heirs of God and fellow
    heirs with Christ [sharing His inheritance with Him]; only we must share His suffering
    if we are to share His glory.  
    18 [But what of that?] For I consider that the sufferings of this present time
    (this present life) are not worth being compared with the glory that is about
    to be revealed to us and in us and for us and conferred on us!
    19 For [even the whole] creation (all nature) waits expectantly
    and longs earnestly  for God’s sons to be made known [waits for the revealing,
    the disclosing of their sonship].
    20 For the creation (nature) was subjected to [frailty (to futility,
    condemned to frustration), not because of some intentional fault on its part,
    but by the will of Him Who so subjected it — [yet] with the hope
    21 That nature (creation) itself will be set free from its bondage to decay
    and corruption [and gain an entrance] into the glorious freedom of God’s children.
    22 We know that the whole creation [of irrational creatures] has been moaning
    together in the pains of labor until now. 
    Romans 8: 23 continued below --> 

{Note: See Mark 16:15 above "you have received the Spirit of adoption    [the spirit producing sonship]" fully contrasts as not being "the whole creation    (of irrational creatures]."    Irrational also denotes "irrational creatures as human": those who live outside    the Light of Jesus Christ... (every creature [of the whole human race)"    God is not referencing things inanimate and without ability to think and choose    Christ as God's Son.      Christ Jesus is the divine "pattern" of the NEW CREATION!    John 14:6 (AMP)    Jesus said to him, I am the Way and the Truth and the Life;    no one comes to the Father except by (through) Me .    Humankind is separated from the inanimate and lower creation of plants and animals     for we are made in the "image" of God. }    Genesis 1:26-27 (AMP)    26 God said, Let Us [Father, Son, and Holy Spirit] make mankind in Our image,    after Our likeness, and let them have complete authority over the fish of the sea,    the birds of the air, the [tame] beasts, and over all of the earth, and over everything    that creeps upon the earth.    27 So God created man in His own image, in the image and likeness of God    He created him; male and female He created them.     Higher creation (mankind) have a free will to choose either to make     a transformation from a life of evil rebellion against God (sin)     or to a life immersed in holiness (consecrated, set apart for service).     The "Born-again" spiritual transformation is reserved for mankind through     cognitive awareness and exercise of free will (free choice).     Only a "Born-again" man (non-gender) who possesses the Holy Spirit has     the ability to read, write and develop spiritual language and spiritual     understanding.    1 Corinthians 2:11-13 (AMP)    11 For what person perceives (knows and understands)    what passes through a man’s thoughts except the man’s own spirit within him?    Just so no one discerns (comes to know and comprehend) the thoughts of God    except the Spirit of God.    12 Now we have not received the spirit [that belongs to] the world,    but the [Holy] Spirit Who is from God, [given to us] that we might realize    and comprehend and appreciate the gifts [of divine favor and blessing    so freely and lavishly] bestowed on us by God.    13 And we are setting these truths forth in words not taught by human wisdom    but taught by the [Holy] Spirit, combining and interpreting spiritual truths    with spiritual language [to those who possess the Holy Spirit].       With total conviction and assurance, Paul writes:    Romans 8:37-38 (AMP)    38 For I am persuaded beyond doubt (am sure) that neither death nor life,    nor angels nor principalities, nor things impending and threatening    nor things to come, nor powers,    39 Nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation will be able to separate    us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

    continuing from Romans 8:22 above...

    23 And not only the creation, but we ourselves too, who have and enjoy
    the firstfruits of the [Holy] Spirit [a foretaste of the blissful things to come]
    groan inwardly as we wait for the redemption of our bodies
    [from sensuality and the grave, which will reveal] our adoption
    (our manifestation as God’s sons).
    24 For in [this] hope we were saved.
    But hope [the object of] which is seen is not hope.
    For how can one hope for what he already sees?
    25 But if we hope for what is still unseen by us, we wait for it with patience
    and composure.
    26 So too the [Holy] Spirit comes to our aid and bears us up in our weakness;
    for we do not know what prayer to offer nor how to offer it worthily as we ought,
    but the Spirit Himself goes to meet our supplication and pleads in our behalf
    with unspeakable yearnings and groanings too deep for utterance.
    27 And He Who searches the hearts of men knows what is in the mind
    of the [Holy] Spirit [what His intent is], because the Spirit intercedes and pleads
    [before God] in behalf of the saints according to and in harmony with God’s will.
    28 We are assured and know that [God being a partner in their labor] all things
    work together and are [fitting into a plan] for good to and for those who love God
    and are called according to [His] design and purpose.
    29 For those whom He foreknew [of whom He was aware and loved beforehand],
    He also destined from the beginning [foreordaining them] to be molded into
    the image of His Son [and share inwardly His likeness], that He might become
    the firstborn among many brethren.
    30 And those whom He thus foreordained, He also called; and those whom
    He called, He also justified (acquitted, made righteous, putting them into
    right standing with Himself). And those whom He justified, He also glorified
    [raising them to a heavenly dignity and condition or state of being].
    31 What then shall we say to [all] this? If God is for us, who [can be] against us?
    [Who can be our foe, if God is on our side?]
    32 He who did not withhold or spare [even] His own Son but gave Him up
    for us all, will He not also with Him freely and graciously give us all [other] things?
    33 Who shall bring any charge against God’s elect [when it is] God Who justifies
    [that is, Who puts us in right relation to Himself?
    Who shall come forward and accuse or impeach those whom God has chosen?
    Will God, Who acquits us?]
    34 Who is there to condemn [us]? Will Christ Jesus (the Messiah), Who died,
    or rather Who was raised from the dead, Who is at the right hand of God
    actually pleading as He intercedes for us?
    35 Who shall ever separate us from Christ’s love? Shall suffering and affliction
    and tribulation? Or calamity and distress? Or persecution or hunger or destitution
    or peril or sword?
    36 Even as it is written, For Thy sake we are put to death all the day long;
    we are regarded and counted as sheep for the slaughter.
    37 Yet amid all these things we are more than conquerors and gain a surpassing
    victory through Him Who loved us.
    38 For I am persuaded beyond doubt (am sure) that neither death nor life,
    nor angels nor principalities, nor things impending and threatening
    nor things to come, nor powers,
    39 Nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation will be able to separate
    us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
