Speaking

 

Speaking What Happens to A Wicked Generation while being called of God & led to faith in Jesus Christ and repentance toward God, every person is performing some measure of work to reach those states. Christ, after all, calls upon us to present fruit fit for repentance even before our baptism (Matthew 3:8). We work to bear fruit that provides evidence that we believe God by turning toward giving our lives to Him. Without holiness, we will not be fit for living within that Kingdom. We would be miserable round pegs in square holes, intensely disliking the pattern of life necessary for God's plans to be carried out. We would be as the demons are today, constantly fighting to impede God's work and truly making everybody else as miserable as possible. We must be holy as He & His Son are holy: we must work with the Father and Son now by yielding to Their purpose for us.

Matthew 12:43-45 When an unclean spirit goes out of a man, he goes through dry places, seeking rest, and finds none. 44 Then he says “I will return to my house from which I came.” And when he comes, he finds it empty, swept and put in order. 45 Then he goes and takes with him seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter and dwell there; and the last state of the man is worse than the first. So shall it also be with this wicked generation.

 Speaking is important. Holiness marks us for His glory and to His praise. Psalm 91 tells us to “say of the Lord”!

 Psalm 91:1-2 NKJV  He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. 2 “I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him I will trust.”

From Psalm 91 we find dwelling in the Secret Place of the Most High abides under the shadow of the Almighty. That place we speak: “I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress; My God in Him I will trust.”

 Psalm 91: 3 Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the perilous pestilence. 4 He shall cover you with His feathers, and under His wings you shall take refuge; His truth shall be your shield and buckler.

From perilous pestilence, God delivers us from plagues. Our feet cannot be caught in nets when we take refuge in Him and speak His truth as our shield and buckler. We reside in Him Who is our fortress. He delivers us from fatal disease.

Psalm 5 You shall not be afraid of the terror by night nor of the arrow that flies by day; 6 Nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness, nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday. 7 A thousand may fall at your right side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it shall not come near you. 8 Only with our eyes shall you look, and see the reward of the wicked.

From verse 5 we are not to be afraid of the terror by night nor of the arrow by day. That of night terrors God already knows. That of day might be missiles short or long range still He is God. we are shelter into His personal care. Pestilence that walks is that made by man and made to move for evil intentions. Some disease is shielded from the sun’s rays and moral evil breeds in the dark!

We have safety even in a massacre. Only with our eyes will we see the wicked perish!

 Psalm 91:9-13….9 Because you have made the LORD, who is my refuge, even the Most High, your dwelling place, 10 No evil shall befall you, nor shall any plague come near your dwelling. 11 For He shall give His angels charge over you, to keep you in all your ways, 12 In their hands they shall bear you up, Lest you dash your foot against a stone, 13 You shall tread upon the lion and the cobra, the young lion and the serpent you shall trample underfoot.

We are insurance against calamity. Because the Savior made the Most High His refuge and His dwelling place, no disaster would strike Him, no calamity would get near Him. We are guarded by angelic beings. We have an escort.

We trample the efforts of the enemy. The devil presented in scripture as a roaring lion: 1 Peter 5:8 and as an ancient serpent seen in Revelation 12:9.

 

Revelation 12:1  Now a great sign appeared in heaven, a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a garland of twelve stars. 2 Then being with child, she cried out in labor and in pain to give birth. 3 and another sign appeared in heaven, behold a great, fiery red dragon having seven heads and ten horns and seven diadems on is heads. 4 His tail drew a third of the stars of heaven and threw them to the earth. And the dragon stood.  Before the woman who was ready to give birth, to devour her Child as soon as it was born. 5 She bore a male Child who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron. And this Child was caught up to God and His throne. 6 Then the woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God. that they should feed her there one thousand two hundred and sixty days. 7 And war broke out in heaven, Michael and his angels fought with the dragon and the dragon and his angels fought, 8 but they did not prevail, nor was a place found for them in heaven any longer. 9 So he great dragon was cast out that serpent of old, called the Devil and Satan who deceives the whole earth and his angels were cast out with him. 10 Then I heard a loud voice saying heaven, “Now salvation and strength and the kingdom of our God and the power of His Christ have come for the accuser of our brethren, who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down. 11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb  and by the word of their testimony and they did not love their lives to the death.

 

Victory over the lion and cobra. Holy Spirit have us nine guarantees of safe conduct to the Son of Man during His life of perfect trust and obedience on earth.  A guarantee of six in writing indeed: 91:14 His spotless life on earth, “Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore I will deliver him; I will set him on high, because he has known My name.”

91:15 His suffering for sins: “He shall call upon Me and I wil answer him: I will be with him in trouble.”

91:16 His present session at God’s right hand and coming kingdom. “With long life I will satisfy him and show him My salvation.

There is safety in the Lord always!

  2024 and 2025 will appear and it will be those who keep these words on their lips declaring their safety in Him. From verse 1 abiding in the shelter of Almighty, we are those to have long life in Him. We are kept by the power of God through faith!

The Almighty: Psalm 17:8 Keep me as the apple of Your eye; hide me under the shadow of Your wings, 9 from the wicked who oppress me, from my deadly enemies who surround me. Deuteronomy 32:10 He found him in a desert land and in the waste land, a howling wilderness; he encircled him, he instructed him, and He kept him as the apple of His eye.

Before salvation: we live in a howling waste, a trackless wilderness, a scene of utter disarray, a desolation and barrenness. But God brings us into order and balance. No longer the confused caught up in chaos, but in order, that right conformity to God and righteous before Him.

 In the secret place: are we in a desert dune, a submarine ride into the depths, a waterfall with freshness filling the atmosphere around us or is it that quiet sunset :Hebrews 13:6 The Lord is my Helper, I will not fear. What can man do to me?  Psalm 118:6 The LORD is on my side; I will not fear. What can man do to me?

Psalm 56:8-11 NKJV 8 You number my wanderings; put my tears into Your bottle; are they not in Your book? When I cry out to You, then my enemies will turn back; This I know, because God is for me. 10 In God (I will praise His word), in the LORD ( I will praise His word), 11 In God I have put my trust; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?

David wrote this: was when David was harassed in the Philistine city of Gath. He had left from the presence of Saul who sought to kill him.

God keeps record: Luke 10:20 Nevertheless do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rather rejoice because your names are written in heaven.

The habitation of the Most High is not a revolving door that we are to go into and then out of; it is to be our "constant." Whether we are resting on our beds or traveling the nations, we dwell in His shelter! A place of habitation for His presence,  is that place where is authority is seen and delegated, it is that place where we are the committed to His command, for  He is never boring but rather the amazing. That Secret Place is a holy place: abides there great power and authority with a humbling comfort and rest. All are welcome to that place!

Christ-confidence is found: Proverbs 3:26: "For the Lord will be your confidence and will keep your foot from being snared."

Psalm 118: 8 It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man. 9 It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in princes.

Psalm 40:4 blessed is that man who makes the LORD his trust, and does not respect the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.

 

Psalm 91:9-10 Because you have made the LORD, who is my refuge, even the Most High, your dwelling (habitation) place, 10 No evil shall befall you, nor shall any plague come near your dwelling.

Proverbs 14:26…. In the fear of the LORD there is strong confidence, and His children will have a place of refuge. A refuge from storm, as a shade from heat. This is a fresh, a flow of life where satisfaction is found.

 Habitation is Not a Visitation: Hebrews 13:5-8 NKJV 5 Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” 6  "So we may boldly say... “the LORD is my helper; I will not fear. What can man do to me?” 7 Remember those who rule over you, who have spoken the word of God to you, whose faith follow, considering the outcome of their conduct. 8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever.

In the presence of God: that habitation, we speak as He speaks, “the LORD is my Helper; I will not fear. What can man do to me.

The Lord counsels us, even in our sleep, He counsels our heart or our inner person! To our heart we receive His counsel, knowing the inheritance but the greatest thing is knowing God above all things!

Psalm 68:5  A father of the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in His holy habitation. The weakest & most vulnerable members of society God helps defend those oppressed.

Deut. 10:8 God separated the tribe of Levi…a priesthood to stand before Him/ who bless His Name continually. That is those who are born-again!

            

By the Holy Spirit, we are choosing life in Jesus daily: Ephesians 2:19-22 Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers & foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints & members of the household of God, 20 having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone, 21 in whom the whole building, being fitted together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord, 22 in whom you also are being built together for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit.

Who has spoken the word of God to us, who has ruled over us with God’s word, directing us into light and not darkness…where faith is active because it relies in a trust that Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever.     Not timid, nor weak

In Habitation We Become sons and daughters: Psalm 144:12 That our sons may be as plants grown up in their youth; that our daughters may be as pillars. sculptured in their palace style; Isaiah 44: 3-5 For I will pour water on him who is thirsty, & floods on the dry ground; I will pour My Spirit on your descendants, & My blessing on your offspring; 4 They will spring up among the grass like willows by the watercourses. 5 One will say, “I am the LORD’S; and another will call himself by the name of Jacob; another will write with his hand, “The LORD’S, and name himself by the name of Israel.

 The Spirit is poured on those who are descendants ;It is the empowering and equipping of the Holy Spirit on God’s children: his sons & daughters:  Acts 2:17 ‘and it shall come to pass in the last days, says God, that I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh; your sons and daughters shall prophesy….The authority of the Spirit is over all “flesh” under the new covenant.

2 Corinthians 6:18 ‘I will be a Father to you, and you shall be My sons and daughters, says the LORD Almighty. Our children should be coming forth in that rest in Jesus ;It is for the glory of the Lord …for in Him, His manifested presence transform us into sons and daughters

He POURS out His Spirit: Upon the ascension of Christ, Jesus left with us Holy Spirit to dwell in our hearts. Holy Spirit works within our hearts to not only give us peace, but also direction. When we seek the Holy Spirit for truth, we are asking to know the route to the will of God in order to be obedient & full of wisdom. Even the groans we profess can be translated by the Holy Spirit to the Father as prayers on our behalf. Communication from God in different forms comes by the Holy Spirit so that we can better know His heart for us through revelation. The Holy Spirit works to be the Helper of God.

Our God is enthroned on our hearts! His righteousness is established.  And in that righteous reign a fulfilling through the son of God, the kingdom has come! Lets abide in speaking what is true and see His will on earth as it is in heaven. Amen
