Turning the Sons Away….

by theparacleteshammer, posted in Anthropology, Principles, Principles Of Relationships

Gang, for those of you who know me, I am an insufferable advocate of women in ministry, especially in the pastorate. I have never shied away from supporting a woman doing WHATEVER she felt called to do.

I set that up as a qualifier to frame what I am about to say, lest someone falsely accuse me of a track record of supporting women in anything other than a sterling and wholly-consistent manner.

There is a passage in Deuteronomy that struck me this morning and I wanted to share it with you.

“…for they would turn your SONS away from following me, to serve other gods. Then the anger of the L-RD would be kindled against you, and He would destroy you quickly.

Deuteronomy 7:4 ESV

Gang, the sons, the men, are critical to to the survival of the nation’s serving the L-rd. This is not diminishing the dignity of the women in a nation’s design, but, given the statistics regarding families who serve the L-rd, and the reality that when men serve the King, a greater percentage of the full family also comes to the L-rd, (according to one LifeWay study, as much as 93% chance likely that the rest of the family comes to the L-rd if Dad does) is something to consider.

Meaning, sons’ moving toward or away from the King has a greater impact on families than all other factors.

And when we castigate the men in a culture (not saying chauvinism or sexism toward females ought be our practice) we do so to our own peril.

So, ladies who follow the L-rd, pray pray pray pray pray, and believing men and children, pray.

G-d has an anchoring purpose for the men in your life.

Encourage them as often as you might.

And be at peace.

Blessing 9: WOR September Blessings: Reconciled to G-d: Names of G-d: The G-d Whom Moves Us From Season To Season

by theparacleteshammer, posted in Principles, September Window of Reconcilaiton Blessings: Reconciliation to G-d

Beloved, I would like to speak to your spirit,

Spirit, listen to the word of G-d for you for today

It is eleven days’ journey from Horeb by the way of Mount Seir to Kadesh-barnea. The L-rd our G-d said to us in Horeb, ‘You have stayed long enough at this mountain.”

Deuteronomy 1:2, 6 ESV

“And without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him.”

Hebrews 11:6 ESV

Spirit, there are season where we move, and seasons where G-d moves.

There are also seasons where, as Smith Wigglesworth once said, “If G-d doesn’t move me, I move Him.” So, seasons of a push/pull with G-d.

And then there are seasons where G-d instructs us to move. And it may come to if we don’t move, He will move us.

In one such situation, I have a friend who did not want to take a new job with his company in a different city. His boss presented the opportunity and asked “who is moving from this place to the new branch office? He did not want to move. But his spirit, who knew it was a better opportunity and, as my friend retells the situation, he heard a voice inside himself say “sign me up.”

At which point, the transition began.

Now, spirit, faith expresses itself in a number of ways. In some cases, G-d looks for us to allow Him to move. And at other times, He looks for us to move, and still other times, He looks to partner with us as we move together. But the bottom line is that faith, to be living, necessitates some kind of movement that increases the Kingdom on at least some level.

The Kingdom is populated by sons who build.. and that building isn’t done in one simple way in one simple process. It is creative and unique and not always initiated by the same catalyst.

And for those who got hung up on the “sons” populating the kingdom and not daughters, I will say this. If I as a man can handle being called a Bride of Messiah, you as a woman can handle being called a Som of G-d.

Congratulations, life is uncomfortable for everyone.

Now, back to blessing your spirit.

Spirit, there are coming times when you will hear the voice of the L-rd tell you: it’s time to make the transition.

And not all transitions will look the same. Some transitions will be initiated by you (as in the very initiative-taking behavior of the Daughters of in Numbers 36), and some by the King (who said, “separate for me Saul and Barnabas”), and yet again, some by a partnership.

There are no sausage factories in the Kingdom.

We will have a series of situations where different types of movement in the spiritual realm will happen.

And we need to observe the sorts of movements necessary.

“You have spent too much time in this place.”

“Ten generations is long enough for your family in this county and states and nation.”

“That town has been a boat anchor around your legs for long enough. Leave.”

“You need to leave to put some geographic distance between yourself and that toxic family member.”

“Time for you to move.”

“Why don’t you take that new job?” (not a command, but a playful remark aimed at upping your curiosity at a situation).

Fill in the blank.

Spirit, there are going to be new seasons where you need to change your location at the prompting of the L-rd because His grace for a location has lifted.

And it’s not something you can explain to anyone. And if you tried explaining, they’d call you crazy.

So, spirit, I bless you to hear the L-rd when he speaks about transitions. When He speaks and says, “enough time dwelling here. Turn northward.”, I bless you with not only the skill to hear, but also the strength of will to follow through.

Moving can be incredibly destabilizing. But it is sometimes necessary to refresh a life.

I bless your move to be smooth-flowing and as you arrive at the new place made for you, I bless you to put down deep roots. I encourage you to not remain in a constant state of transition. Between transitions, each season is best marked by deepening roots.

I bless the transition to be nimble.

I also bless your desire to be in the new place to grow and increase so that you do not get comfortable with either Egyptian slavery or the arid wilderness.

I bless the home you are selling to look to the King for its life, and to not latch onto you or anyone or something anything else as its hope or promise of hope.

I bless you to know where G-d designed for you and to move in the direction of a place that will feel like HOME to you.

I bless your desires, spirit, for you to be able to articulate those desires, and for G-d to partner with you to give you a home that aligns with your desires and His desires.

I bless you that when you are transitioning to your new homestead, that you will see the land for what it is. Not merely a physician set of resources and assets to be looted and pillaged or used, but as a valuable place that exists in the spirit and impacts and is impacted by, the spiritual realm.

I bless you to see and perceive what the L-rd wants you to know about the place where you live.

And I bless you to steward that place effectively with an eye in the spirit to what is happening to your land beyond just what you see.

I bless you to make the transitions out of the desert and to move when the King tells you to move.

I bless that communication to be open and free, and I bless you to arrive at your desired haven and safe place.

I bless that series of transitions under the hand of the G-d Who Moves Your From Season To Season.

I bless you with those realities, in the name of Yeshua.

Blessing 8: WOR September Blessings: Reconciled to G-d

by theparacleteshammer, posted in Blessings, Principles, September Window of Reconcilaiton Blessings: Reconciliation to G-d

Beloved, I invite your spirit to commune with me for a few minutes.

Spirit, listen to the word of G-d for you for today

and in the wilderness, where you have seen how the L-RD your G-d carried you, as a man carries his son, all the way that you went until you came to this place.

Deuteronomy 1:31 ESV

Spirit, the end of the season in the wilderness, and just before they entered the promised land, the generation of Israel was getting used to the idea that G-d had raised them up and viewed them as sons.

He did not view them as slaves.

And likewise, under the New Covenant, WE ARE NOT SLAVES.

I am going to say it a different way.

If you refer to yourself as a slave under the New Covenant, which is better than the Old Covenant, you are doing it wrong.

Spirit, you cannot partake of fullness if you adopt the mentality you are a slave or even only or primarily a servant.

Slaves do not have a birthright or access to an inheritance. On the other hand, sons do.

Spirit, if Jesus views you as a son, you are a son. And I bless you with this deep revelation that you are a son.

Soul, if Jesus views you as a son or a friend and you view yourself as a servant, one of you is wrong, and it won’t be Jesus.

Soul, listen to the spirit who will tell you what you are.

Spirit, it might require seasons of fighting and warring against dumb and religious mentalities, and just because Paul called himself something or described himself as something does not serve as an indicator you are supposed to call yourself the same thing, especially if your mindset is currently bastard worm who is barely even saved.

Paul’s mindset was transformed from the murderer who thought more highly of himself than he ought, to a better perspective RELEVANT to him.

And just because Scripture DESCRIBES something does not mean it PRESCRIBES IT for everyone that reads it.

Rather, our job is to take on the mindset of Jesus who WAS A SON. Sure there was an element of humility, however, that wasn’t the only or first mindset that He had.

As the Son of G-d.

We are often coached through a sausage factory that we are responsible to blast ourselves and not allow ourselves to be raised up to be seated in the heavenly places as the sons that we areS

“No longer do I call you servants, but rather friends.”

You cannot carry, in a healthy manner, the mindset of being a son, unless you are willing to receive ALL aspects of who you are. Son. Friend, brother, fill-in-the-blank.

If you try to carry the mindset of a servant and you abandon the reality and mindset of a son or a friend, for which reconciliation Jesus died that you would be called friends and sons (John 1:12) then you will grow toxic as you work to earn his love.

And as sonship come through suffering with Hom, Spirit, I bless you in a few ways.

I bless you to allow Father to carry you when you are weak.

I bless you to walk in the revelation that you are a son and a friend of the King.

I bless you to hear the voice of this Friend while you work, while you do chores, while you are will the your friends and children, and while you are with your animals

I bless you to hear and receive his affection even in the wilderness.

I bless you to resist only carrying the mindset of a servant and not also carrying the mindset of friend and son.

I bless you to see sons and friends around you.

I bless you with deep compassion and affection.

And bless you to deeply understand and seek for what your King and Father are doing.

I bless you to ask questions.

I bless you to build and I bless you to feel the freedom necessary to build creatively.

I bless you to fight the mindset that you are only a servant or a slave.

I bless you to see what He is doing in and with you and I bless you to see more than you have ever seen before.

I bless you to know not just his majestic voice, but also his still small voice, the quiet and intimate whisper of a friend, and also his friendly voice, that voice that jokes and kids around and tells you stories.

I bless you with the freedom that, even though the L-rd knows what you are going to say before you say it, that you feel freedom to share stores that make you come alive, spirit.

I bless you with deep compassion and zeal for the things He made you to do.

I bless your unique design that is not subject to be conformed to any other man’s ideas or will.

I bless you, spirit, with a full compliment of expressions tied to your design.

I bless you with the revelation that even though you have a different deisgn, the L-RD made you and KNOWS the full measure of your design.

I bless your skill in acquiring new tools that the institutional church may not have vetted, but tools that the King has vetted.

I bless you to see creation in places where you first did not realize creation was there.

I bless you, spirit, to flow deeply as a son.

In the name of Yeshua.

Amein.

Blessing 7: Window of Reconciliation: Reconciled to G-d

by theparacleteshammer, posted in Filial vs. Bridal, September Window of Reconcilaiton Blessings: Reconciliation to G-d

Beloved,

I invite your spirit to connect with me no matter their state, in the name of Yeshua.

Spirit, listen to the Word of G-d for you for today.

Afterward Moses and Aaron went and said to Pharaoh, “Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, ‘Let my people go, that they may hold a feast to me in the wilderness.’” But Pharaoh said, “Who is the LORD, that I should obey his voice and let Israel go? I do not know the LORD, and moreover, I will not let Israel go.” Then they said, “The God of the Hebrews has met with us. Please let us go a three days’ journey into the wilderness that we may sacrifice to the LORD our God, lest he fall upon us with pestilence or with the sword.” But the king of Egypt said to them, “Moses and Aaron, why do you take the people away from their work? Get back to your burdens.” And Pharaoh said, “Behold, the people of the land are now many, and you make them rest from their burdens!” The same day Pharaoh commanded the taskmasters of the people and their foremen, “You shall no longer give the people straw to make bricks, as in the past; let them go and gather straw for themselves. But the number of bricks that they made in the past you shall impose on them, you shall by no means reduce it, for they are idle. Therefore they cry, ‘Let us go and offer sacrifice to our God.’ Let heavier work be laid on the men that they may labor at it and pay no regard to lying words.”

So the taskmasters and the foremen of the people went out and said to the people, “Thus says Pharaoh, ‘I will not give you straw. Go and get your straw yourselves wherever you can find it, but your work will not be reduced in the least.’” So the people were scattered throughout all the land of Egypt to gather stubble for straw. The taskmasters were urgent, saying, “Complete your work, your daily task each day, as when there was straw.” And the foremen of the people of Israel, whom Pharaoh’s taskmasters had set over them, were beaten and were asked, “Why have you not done all your task of making bricks today and yesterday, as in the past?”

Then the foremen of the people of Israel came and cried to Pharaoh, “Why do you treat your servants like this? No straw is given to your servants, yet they say to us, ‘Make bricks!’ And behold, your servants are beaten; but the fault is in your own people.” But he said, “You are idle, you are idle; that is why you say, ‘Let us go and sacrifice to the LORD.’ Go now and work. No straw will be given you, but you must still deliver the same number of bricks.” The foremen of the people of Israel saw that they were in trouble when they said, “You shall by no means reduce your number of bricks, your daily task each day.” They met Moses and Aaron, who were waiting for them, as they came out from Pharaoh; and they said to them, “The LORD look on you and judge, because you have made us stink in the sight of Pharaoh and his servants, and have put a sword in their hand to kill us.”

Then Moses turned to the LORD and said, “O Lord, why have you done evil to this people? Why did you ever send me? For since I came to Pharaoh to speak in your name, he has done evil to this people, and you have not delivered your people at all.”

But the LORD said to Moses, “Now you shall see what I will do to Pharaoh; for with a strong hand he will send them out, and with a strong hand he will drive them out of his land.”

God spoke to Moses and said to him, “I am the LORD. I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, as God Almighty, but by my name the LORD I did not make myself known to them. I also established my covenant with them to give them the land of Canaan, the land in which they lived as sojourners. Moreover, I have heard the groaning of the people of Israel whom the Egyptians hold as slaves, and I have remembered my covenant. Say therefore to the people of Israel, ‘I am the LORD, and I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and I will deliver you from slavery to them, and I will redeem you with an outstretched arm and with great acts of judgment. I will take you to be my people, and I will be your God, and you shall know that I am the LORD your God, who has brought you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians. I will bring you into the land that I swore to give to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob. I will give it to you for a possession. I am the LORD.’” Moses spoke thus to the people of Israel, but they did not listen to Moses, because of their broken spirit and harsh slavery.”

Exodus 5:1-6:9 ESV

Spirit, He is the G-d Over The Brickyard, Who Prioritizes Freedom Over Labor Relations. Sit with that reality for a few minutes, spirit. For this May be an unpopular idea at the moment. And there while there are times when the L-rd will sort out what is happening in the brickyard and the field and on the job site and between disparate people, G-d has a strong and vested interest in liberty and if trying to make things easier and more comfortable in the brickyard makes us more comfortable with slavery and less comfortable with the risk associated with freedom, G-d will almost certainly always ignore the brickyard to prime us to be ready to walk in freedom as we grow out of slavery and into sonship.

So, spirit, I bless you to writhe at and be revulsed at the mere though of more bondage.

I bless you to wrestle with and for your liberation from captivity.

I bless you to rest in the strong plans of the G-d of the Brickyard. I bless you to grow dissatisfied with your current state of being, and to increase in your place of design. Spirit, you were made for liberty. You were not designed for the brickyard.

I bless you to endure being refined and proven and tested in the crucible for a fight that awaits a future date.

I bless your capacity to endure hardship and to handle being placed for a season under harsh leadership as you grow with a deeper vision against the day of your release.

I bless you as you are feeling pain and heartache that that pain would not be in vain and the enemy would suffer casualties as a result of your endurance. I bless you, spirit, to grow in “integrity of heart and skillful hands” both as you are working through hard seasons in the brickyards.

I bless you to find rest in The Anchor’s stability.

I bless you to hear my out clarity the voice of the G-d of the Brickyard and to allow Him to set your eyes where they need to be.

I bless your seasons to be fruitful, and I bless you to be a damaging source for the enemy and a thorn in his side even as G-d is growing you.

I bless you to not waste a moment of your days, even in your sleep.

I also bless you to be a knife and a sword and a catapult in the hands of the L-rd as He uses you as a peculiar weapon in His hands with which to harass the enemy.

I bless you to hold the line and stay the course.

I bless you with that reality and set of revelations, in the name of Yeshua.

Amein.

Blessing 6: Window of Reconciliation: Reconciled to G-d

by theparacleteshammer, posted in Principles, September Window of Reconcilaiton Blessings: Reconciliation to G-d

Beloved, I invite your spirit forward, in Jesus’ name.

Spirit, listen to the Word of G-d for you today

“We have this as a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul, a hope that enters into the inner place behind the curtain,”

Hebrews 6:19 ESV

Spirit, our hope does not twist or turn like a wish as does the worldly forms of hope, as in, “I hope or desire or which this would happen.”.

Spirit that is not the way of G-d or His variety of hope.

I have taught this before, but hope is the root and fuel of everything to do with prophecy and prophets and prophetic gifting or unctions.

Spirit, on of the names of our King, and one of the most ancient of church symbols, is Anchor.

A place that holds fast and grips when thrown into something where it sticks.

Spirit, our hope and our anchor holds within and behind the veil within the spiritual fabric of the Mercy Seat.

We depend upon, and seek, and favor His Mercy Seat

For there you cover

Ev’ry lie I spoke

And ev’ry promise that I’ve broke

And ev’ry dreamer than I’ve woke

The Waiting “The Mercy Seat”

That Mercy Seat full of his Mercies and Mercy is a sure place that will never break apart and will be a deep ocean into which we can drop our anchors.

And He is the anchor, the securing point when everything is awash in turgid maelstrom.

Spirit, I bless you to HOLD FAST.

I bless you to lash your rope to the anchor, when you are roughed-up.

I bless you to find and deeply test the strength of that Anchor.

He wrote his covenant with you because many times He knew there would be entities that would seek to destabilize your ability to trust him.

I bless you to ask the questions and see hard answers to hard questions and to hear His heart honestly.

💜

I bless you to anchor deep and be found in a place of stabilizing force when all other powers and authorities would seek to force you to move in different ways.

Spirit, be at deep and abiding peace. And rest securely in that anchor that holds behind the veil.

I bless your boat and ship to survive and harness the storms for which it was designed.

“I find this freedom in this little ship.” -Kevin Max Smith-

I bless you to find freedom as you chart your course knowing the Anchor, He is every present.

Be blessed, spirit, and reconciled to the Son in this fashion.

Blessing 5: Window of Reconciliation: Reconciled to G-d: September 2021

by theparacleteshammer, posted in Principles, September Window of Reconcilaiton Blessings: Reconciliation to G-d

Beloved, I would like to invite your spirit forward to connect with me.

Spirit, listen to the Word of G-d for you for today.

Shall not the Judge of all the Earth do what is just?

From Genesis 18:25

Spirit, this post is about one of the names of G-d.

That name, “the Judge of all the Earth”, describes G-d in the process of weighing a group of cities for judgment, which simply means “decision”.

And further, Spirit, He is not merely the Judge of one person or people group or one chunk of land. Rather He is the Judge of ALL THE EARTH.

This story of Sodom and Gomorrah and the rest of the cities in the plane was a story about deciding the fate of a piece of land due to, not just the people crying out, but also the land crying out as an entity itself against the distressing injustice occurring within its borders.

G-d can be counted on to hear and handle unjust situations.

He will respond to those who are mistreating others.

He will hear the outcry of victims of all kinds of violence.

He will act and judge and decide switfly when violence happens to his kids.

So, spirit, I bless you to rest in the king’s judgment, and to depend on Him to act with justice.

His idea of justice May differ from you idea of justice, but He will act.

I bless you to trust the King is not slack concerning His promises to act.

I bless you to let go of your ideas of justice and to take on the King’s ideas of justice.

I bless you to rest and observe when a case is taken up by the Judge. I bless you to get curious as to how the Judge handles cases of injustice. And I bless you to watch when justice is rendered in a case that is not yours.

I bless you to not fall apart when the Judge renders a verdict that does not align with your idea of justice.

I bless you to get to know the love of the Judge for you. And I bless you to feel and know the love and affection of the Judge for the land.

I bless you to hear His voice and to see the memos and papers getting marked and the court orders getting signed.

I bless you, spirit, to help others see the Judge’s process of justice.

I bless you to rest on the earth as the Judge metes out His ruling which will affect not only people, but also chunks of land.

I bless you with that revelation in the name of Yeshua.

Blessing 4: Window of Reconciliation: Reconciled to G-d:

by theparacleteshammer, posted in Principles, September Window of Reconcilaiton Blessings: Reconciliation to G-d

Beloved,

I invite your spirit to come forward.

Spirit,

Listen to the Word of G-d for you for today

Do not be deceived, my beloved brothers.

James 1:16 ESV

Spirit, I do not know precisely how possible it is to be deceived.

But I IMAGINE this.

And I ask you to imagine with me.

SIDEBAR

Yes, I know people might be wont to lecture me saying “Dave, our faith isn’t about what we feel but about what we KNOW. HARD EVIDENCE.”

Actually, it’s about the skillful negotiation and dancing between knowledge and feeling; son mode and bride mode; reins, heart, and brain; black/white/shades of gray and hues of color; giving and receiving; male and female modes; building and creating vs. intimacy and connection; life and death; praise in which we extol the greatness of our King and worship in which we make the blood sacrifice that costs us something; work and rest; spouse and children; friends and family; rivers and oceans; mountains and beaches; day and night; sun, moon, and stars; and so forth.

Just imagine with me and picture the possibilities, spirit.

Imagine with me, if you will, a Father whose capacity and desire and skill to lead you into all truth outstrips and outpaces the enemy’s capacity to deceive.

To which will you latch?

It is a decision we must make each of us.

And so, spirit, I bless you to be an early warning system for the person in whom you dwell. I bless you to speak long and loudly when something just isn’t quite right.

I bless you to resist deception and to be able to recognize it and so flag it for others to see.

I bless you with freedom from the fear of being deceived.

I bless you to not keep in step with the spirit of this age that exalts the ease of being deceived over the ease of being led into all trough by the Spirit of the True and Living G-d.

I bless your interactions with the Holy Trinity in the midst of the Divine Counsel.

I bless the Trinity to respond to your hungering and thirsting with and equivalent or greater response.

I bless your relationship with the L-rd to not be characterized by deception, but by truth and kindness and compassion.

I bless you to have clear eyes and sight to see what the L-rd is doing in your midst.

I bless you with a sequence of live-giving relationships marked by a mutual desire to improve and edify one another.

I bless you with that reality in the name of Yeshua ha-Mashiach.

Blessing 3: Blessing For the Season: Window of Reconciliation: September, Reconciliation to G-d,

by theparacleteshammer, posted in Blessings, Principles, September WOR Blessings: Reconciled to G-d, Window of Reconciliation Blessings

Beloved, I invite your spirit forward to connect for a few minutes.

Spirit, listen tot he word of G-d for you for today.

The L-RD said to Cain…

From Genesis 4:6, 9 ESV

Spirit, this text clearly says that, when Cain sinned in unrighteous anger and in the execution of murder both times, it never says he went to G-d. Rather, the text seems, at least to me, to indicate G-d came to him.

Let me say that again a little louder for those in the back.

Spirit, after Cain messed up twice, G-d didn’t consign him immediately to hell or Sheol or banish Cain. G-d came to Cain to help coach him to fix the problem.

Cain chose to leave G-d’s presence, not the way we typically hear this preached.

Nor was Cain this “ooooohhhhh wicked rebellious sinner beyond redemption.”

And this whole overgrown “a holy G-d cannot look on sin” nonsense that we have constructed off on own or two proof texts.

Plainly, after Cain sinned and before any sort of repentance take place, G-d approached him when there was still blood on his hands and offered to help him out of it.

Spirit, after our mess-ups and before the repentance bears forth, there is a moment in which G-d comes to visit us with His kindness and which His offer to help us to a better place.

So, Spirit, I bless you to speak up when we each screw up and to say “HEY! THIS IS THE WAY BACK HOME!!!!!”

I bless your voice to be among the oldest in our ear and presenting the kindness of the King as the way back home, even if the way back home may be difficult.

I bless you to latch onto and to display the reconciling desire of the Father’s heart when we are missing it.

I bless you to remind the person in whom you dwell that the way back home is already ready already (pardon that odd syntax), and the door is already flung wide for you to come back home, and the Father waits to kill the fatted calf in celebration of your return.

I bless you to be full of the purposes of the L-rd as you come back home and as you respond to the voice of the L-rd who is ever near the screwed-up.

I bless you to light on the path and the place where we ought to go.

If we are exhorted, spirit, to come boldly before the throne of grace, what’s to stop the Father from boldly coming to us with kindness to make…

all things new….

Be reconciled, you who have messed up, to a Father that wants you home.

In the name of Yeshua.

So be it.

Blessing 2: Blessing For the Season: Window of Reconciliation: September, Reconciliation to G-d, How G-d Works With Our Spirit In Part and Blessing 2

by theparacleteshammer, posted in Blessings, Window of Reconciliation Blessings

NOTE ABOUT WORKING WITH THE HUMAN SPIRIT:

We have too many people that treat themselves as Slaves of the Master rather than Noble Subjets of the King: Those that wish to only think with their souls, their natural minds, and what they can perceive with their senses, which are all great gifts from the King, but do not account for the reality and knowledge of the things of the spirit. Obedience is part of the equation of how we walk with the L-rd, but it is not the end goal. Further, if we treat ourselves only as slaves, we will never step into the fullness of who we are as sons who build and create in partmership with the King. Gang, you are noble, and you are sons (And I have said this before, and I will say it again. Ladies: if men can be the bride of Christ, you can be called sons of G-d. Congratuations, life is uncomfortable for all of us). We need way more believers who want their spirits leading, because it is on the level of the spirit where the King does most of His interactions and work with us. And it is the spirit leading that enables us to be the most productive as followers of Messiah. And it is the spirit that is active from conception, while the soul requires the functioning of the mylenated nerves in order to function. G-d, in handicapping our souls for the first portion of our lives, and causing our spirits to be active and engageable from conception, enabled us to move to a place of strength in accordance with His design. So, when I construct a blessing for the spirit, it is precisly because I am following the design and blueprint G-d set up, as that we could have gthe easiest time walking as sons, overcomers, and those who will walk toward holiness and righteousness rather than constantly struggling with sin. We were made for walking as spiritual beings, and not merely soulish beings.

So, without further adieu, and knowing that Scripture teaches that we be sanctified in spirit, soul, and body, let’s jump into the next several blessings for this window.

As we enter the season that includes the Holy Days of Awe (Rosh Hoshanah and Yom Kippur), Sukkot, and the Simchat Torah, please know that the days surrounding the Autumnal Equinox, which is often known as a holy time for the witchcraft community and defiled for us, were made to be set apart and holy by the L-rd. These twenty days between September 10 and September 30, and especially the 21st were intended by G-d to be days where we deeply connect and recover lost ground with Him, and with that…

Beloved, I would like to invte your spirit to be present for the next few minutes.

Spirit, listen to the word of G-d for you for today

The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places;

Yes, I have a good inheritance.

Psalm 16:6 ESV

Spirit, in our reconcilation to the L-RD in this season, there is room for the Father to provide many different good and perfect gifts to us. Part of the blessing that G-d the Father wants to give to us is the blessing of protection. Secure boundaries. And boundary LINES that are set up where HE wants them to be set up. Not boundary lines that we have set up. And certainly not boundary lines that the enemy can set up and move whenever he wants to.

Boundary lines that are G-d-ordained are set up for a purpose. They protect and help secure our inheritance. And in this security, we have the opportunity to walk with the King as He establishes our territory,

Our inheritance is not just heaven, spirit. Our inheritance is tied to our destiny in the near-term and present here on earth as we walk as sons who expand the kingdom, while the whole earth groans in anguished expectation as it waits for the manifestation of SONS of G-d.

And all parts of that inheritance are valuable, spirit. And they all merit the protection that the L-rd.

So spirit, I bless you to recognize the blessing and favor of the L-rd.

I bless you to be discerning enough to know when the enemy is attempting to fool you about a boundary marker that he has put in place. I bless you, spirit, to resist the boundary markers of the enemy.

I bless you to hear the boundaries the L-rd has set in place, and as you keep those boundaries.

I bless you to know the full measure of the territory (physical, generational, spiritual) that is yours to steward.

I bless you to rejoice at the bounty of the Father’s heart for you. He does not give boundaries to keep you fenced in, but rather so that you can establish and secure governance over what is legetimately yours.

Spirit, I bless you with the tenacity to fight for the full extent of your territory. And I bless you to remove those enemies that do not belong on your land.

Be at peace, spirit, and be more deeply reconciled with your G-d, who has given you boundary lines that surround what will ultimately become pleasant places.

I bless you to find your way back home to the place in the spirit where you belong.

You are loved in many ways, spirit.

I bless you with those realities in the name of Yeshua.

So be it.
