Wed

We had Dann talk, and then Kris.

I love the stuff that Dann is talking about... just how the Bible was written, and how John had a completely (90% original) different view on Jesus. I love the background info. Also we are going through a book called "graspig God's word"... it is totally how Bill Johnson reads the Bible... word for word. I just read some chapters in Mathew today, and I automatically read slower though scripture... every word counts, and has been chosen for a specific purpose. I love it. Just reading through some scripture my mind is already looking for connections and lists and structure in the scriptures... its as if seeing in 3D for the first time... and its been there all the time :)

The book reads very easy, and the exercises are straight forward... I think any Christian that is bored of the Bible should get the book and go through it... it makes scripture just come alive...

Then Kris spoke... wow... I missed him... it is as if i can't get enough of him... if BSSM was just him talking, then it would be worth it... yes, i love Bill Johnson... and love his deepness... but I think like Kris, and just love it... anyway...

He spoke on identity... that we have to realize that we are sons of God. Creation knows we are His sons. The enemy knows we are His sons. God knows we are His sons. Angels know we are His sons, but we are the only ones in the dark... we need the revelation... for creation yearns for the revealing of the sons of God.

He also spoke on Daniel 7... how judgement has been made in the favor of the saints, and that we have been given the kingdom of God (Gospels confirms this)... so then it means that the enemy no longer overcomes us, but that we are the ones that are overcoming him.

We have the dominion now. The enemy and his forces no longer have dominion. All the dominion they have is what we actually give to them. The enemy has been placed on earth so that he may be crushed by us. The enemy tried to get dominion, yet was cast out of Heaven. Now we have been given dominion (the very thing that the enemy sought) and we are seated in Heaven. So the enemy is jealous, because we got what he wanted :) And on top of that, God thought it good for us to stomp on the enemy, while he is on earth... before the enemy is thrown into the lake of fire...

So all the enemy can do is bark at us like a japing dog... if we submit to God, and resist the enemy, then the enemy will flee from us.

We have been restored to the original mandate: we have been given dominion over the earth. The enemy is a lier, and wants us to believe we have no dominion... all the enemy can do is talk us into giving our authority to him.

we need the spirit of revelation to know our calling as sons of God - to realize who we already are.

God is good, and He loves you :)
