ARE YOU SEEKING SPIRITUAL DESIRES OR FLESHLY DESIRES?


Are you seeking Spiritual Desires or Fleshly Desires?

The Bible was written for our example, for man to learn from, the Bible is our Owners Manual from God, to His chosen creation, Man and Woman , Born in the Image of God. We are little God’s!

 

In the book of Isaiah the prophet, had a vision. He saw something from a high point of spiritual awareness within himself, something that was not generally seen by his pears’, even though, the information was available to be seen. This spiritual vision prompted him to preach, to write, and to record the book of Isaiah over twenty-seven centuries ago. (written for our example). What ever he saw, whatever came to focus in his consciousness, and whatever he presented to his pear’s, do have meaning to us today, if we look beyond the physical interpretation of his words to the spirit behind the words. It is the spirit behind the words which can give an understanding in the here and now . Note: the meaning is in the spirit of the words and not in the physical words themselves, the physical words are the bridge to the spirit that is a Reality within every person. The spirit is the treasure which contains the real meaning. Remember God is spirit, those that worship Him, must worship Him in spirit and in truth! The vision of Isaiah were based upon an experience with the Lord while he was alive and which allowed him to speak with authority, the authority is in the spirit behind the words and not the words themselves.

While reading Isaiah chapter 2:10-17: Isaiah advises those with ears to hear, the people who are willing to follow the teaching God has given him, to enter into the rock, the rock of the covenant which is the solid place within one’s self. This is a direction to enter into the closet within to do two things, to shut out the opinions and beliefs of the fallen material world in which we find ourselves; and to contemplate on the relationship between yourself and the Lord, our God. There is know one else within the solid -rock relationship of the covenant-agreement that is available between man and creator, between the material human self and the Spiritual Self of the true identity that man is made in the image and likeness of God. The opinions and beliefs of others should be left outside.

In the outside world of human nature with all of its distractions, the lofty looks, the lofty views, of man shall be humbled when the Truth of covenant-agreement is known in one’s own experience. The people in their mistaken beliefs that they are material creatures in a world without the LORD which gives them their attitudes of haughtiness shall be bowed down and brought low when the Truth is known. When the Truth is know, the LORD alone shall be exalted because it will be known that the earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof. There is a material self that shall be brought low; and there is a Spiritual Self that shall be lifted up. The material self cannot be brought low unless it presently occupies a high position in which it does not belong.(Spirit of pride and others).

This error in the position of the false human-ego material self shall be brought low in the day of the LORD of hosts. When it is discovered that there is a LORD of hosts, who is LORD of all the hosts of people everywhere, then, in the day, everyone who is falsely lifted up to where he is proud and lofty, shall be brought low. Note: the cedars of Lebanon and the oaks of Bashan are tall trees which are used as symbols of men and women who have exalted themselves into high positions in the human nature world in the man made scheme of things. Other symbols of wealth and affluence in the material world are symbolized by high mountains, hills, towers and fenced walls, the great ships of Tarshish, and pleasant pictures. These are symbols of fallen man in his effort to raise himself back to the position from whence he has fallen. Man in the false high and elevated position in the fallen world shall be made low and the Lord shall be exalted in that day. When a man knows the LORD, he shall do certain things to demonstrate his new values.

I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. vs.-2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect will of God. (Romans 21:1-2).

God flowed through Isaiah many centuries before the book of Romans was written. People of God, I hear Pastors and lay-people saying all the time that the old testament has passed away, When the new Testament was written, when Jesus died on the cross to save us from our sins. Well I am here to tell you that the word of God was written for our learning, the Bible is man’s owners manual, you can’t throw pages of the book away, you and I must adhere to every part of the word of God daily, this is our reasonable service. So many people have been taken advantage of because of the lack of knowledge, and for their miss guided ways. Our people parish for the lack of knowledge. The Spirit realm is real, there are no short cuts to what God has in store for His people. We must apply line upon line, precept upon precept.

Man in the fallen state must return back to the creator, seek God while he may be found. People of God, we must be real to God and real to self, turn away from the things of the world and turn to God. My desire is for everyone to have ever lasting life and to have life more abundantly. My desire for you and I is to tap into a supernatural relationship with God in order to have all that the word of God said we could have. (the blind to see the lame to walk the death to hear and the dead to rise). Verily, Verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be Glorified in the Son.

If ye shall ask anything in my name, I will do it. (John 14:12-14).

In the time and season that we are in, as people of God we must stand on God’s word, that means we must live a Holy life, a Righteous life and an Obedient life to the Father, the Alpha and Omega. People of God my desire is to see Men and Women of God, get to the place of Spiritual Maturity, walking in a place that our speech and our preaching be not with enticing words of man’s wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of Power; That your faith would not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the Power of GOD.

What God did through Isaiah he wants to do through each one of us. The question is, will we pay the price? will we die to self daily? will we come out of the world system and live according to God’s system?

But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God has prepared for them that love Him.

But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.

For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the Spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.

Now we have received, not the Spirit of the world, but the Spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.

Which things also we speak, not in the words which man’s wisdom teaches, but which the Holy Ghost teaches; comparing Spiritual things with Spiritual.

But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are Spiritually discerned.

People of God it is not about us, It is all about God getting all the Glory. To everyone one that reads this, If you are Ordained or seeking Ordination, Please Go back and read Mark 16:14-20 and Matthew 28:18-20.

LORD WHATEVER YOU ARE DOING IN THIS SEASON PLEASE DON’T DO IT WITHOUT ME!!!!!

TO GOD BE THE GLORY !!

I truly thank you for your time.

With much love: Prophet Gary Becton.

 THE LOVE OF JESUS CHRIST
