“Assemble together in the Name of Jesus. Use His Name to take authority over any enemy. Call forth whatever is needed to win any battle by invoking the power of His Name. Come into My presence as if He were coming to Me by coming in His Name. Love deeply in His Name. It is the Name above every name. The Name of Jesus brings forth My presence; all that I have and all that I am. Whisper It for peace. Say It whenever you need a Friend. Use It wisely. Never misuse It.”

Isaiah 9:6-7 NIV

6) For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

7) Of the increase of his government and peace there will be no end. He will reign on David’s throne and over his kingdom, establishing and upholding it with justice and righteousness from that time on and forever. The zeal of the Lord Almighty will accomplish this.

John 6:57 AMP

Just as the living Father sent Me and I live by (through, because of) the Father, even so whoever continues to feed on Me [whoever takes Me for his food and is nourished by Me] shall [in his turn] live through and because of Me.”

John 14:12-13 AMP

12) I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, if anyone steadfastly believes in Me, he will himself be able to do the things that I do; and he will do even greater things than these, because I go to the Father.

13) And I will do [I Myself will grant] whatever you ask in My Name [as presenting all that I AM], so that the Father may be glorified and extolled in (through) the Son.

 

If only we would gain a full and complete understanding of the power and majesty of the Name of Jesus, we would only want to be part of whatever is happening wherever He is.

Teach me about You, Lord,

Jim Corbett

“Your innermost man is designed to exist on food from Me through the power of My Holy Spirit. It thrives on My Word. It is nourished only in My presence. You can find no nourishment from the things of the world now that you have been formed to exist in My world. You are a new creation. It is about time you recognize that.

“A diet of worldly food starves the spiritual being that you have become. It has no nourishment for who you are becoming in Jesus. Even pre-digested food, food and wisdom from those who know Me, will not sustain you for long. You will become weak and spiritually lethargic in the ways of the Spirit. You need to spend time in My presence. You need to eat at My banquet table. I need you to be fit and ready for My work. Stop eating the things that your inner being sees as junk food. Receive My power from My Spirit. Learn to eat properly from My hand or you will atrophy to My ways.”

John 4:34 NIV 

”My food,” said Jesus, “is to do the will of Him who sent Me and to finish His work.”

John 6:57 AMP 

Just as the living Father sent Me and I live by (through, because of) the Father, even so whoever continues to feed on Me [whoever takes Me for his food and is nourished by Me] shall [in his turn] live through and because of Me.

Most Christians today are so busy running after the opinions of others regarding Who God is and what He is saying in these end times, that they have forgotten how to hear from Him themselves. It is easier to read how some Bible expert interprets chapters and verses of the Bible than it is to spend the kind of time necessary to receive the rhema Word in our own spirits from the Holy Spirit.

Unless we have an intimate relationship with the Lord from being with our Lord and in His Word, we will not notice when worldly influences creep in and destroy God’s call to holiness. We will become dry and dead if we continue our pursuit of someone else’s opinion and interpretation. We are invited to come into the presence of the One Who spoke the world into existence because of the blood of Jesus. What could possibly be important or powerful enough to stop us from going there?

Teach me to only value Your opinion, Lord,

Jim Corbett

“The explosion at the grave did much more than bring the most important person Who ever lived back to life. It modified the creation model forever, furthering My plan and providing a pathway for mankind to interact with Me eternally through the blood of Jesus. It established new boundaries for My interaction with you for this season of your existence. It set in motion a new eternity and at the same time began the countdown to the end of life as you know it.

“Soon I will usher in a new heaven and a new earth. It will complete the era in which you live and begin another phase of the expression of Who I am. How involved do you want to be in My future plans? Although access to Me is provided for you through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus, your commitment level to Him in this season shows Me much. It shows your sincerity and devotion to Me and whatever I have in mind for the future.

“Understand that I am, at this moment in time, building a generation to interact with Me for eternity. Your life commitment in Jesus is being scrutinized and recorded. How you choose to implement the new life I have given you, and how you take advantage of the unlimited access that you have to Me, greatly impacts how I will use you in My eternal future.”

Eph. 4:12-13 AMP

12) His intention was the perfecting and the full equipping of the saints (His consecrated people), [that they should do] the work of ministering toward building up Christ’s body (the church),

13 [That it might develop] until we all attain oneness in the faith and in the comprehension of the [full and accurate] knowledge of the Son of God, that [we might arrive] at really mature manhood (the completeness of personality which is nothing less than the standard height of Christ’s own perfection), the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ and the completeness found in Him.

Phil. 3:10-11 AMP

10) [For my determined purpose is] that I may know Him [that I may progressively become more deeply and intimately acquainted with Him, perceiving and recognizing and understanding the wonders of His Person more strongly and more clearly], and that I may in that same way come to know the power outflowing from His resurrection [which it exerts over believers], and that I may so share His sufferings as to be continually transformed [in spirit into His likeness even] to His death, [in the hope]

11) That if possible I may attain to the [spiritual and moral] resurrection [that lifts me] out from among the dead [even while in the body].

Rev. 2:26 NIV

“To him who overcomes and does my will to the end, I will give authority over the nations.”

 

Most of us are so short-sighted that we apply what we have been given through Jesus only to our waking moments on this earth. God always interacts from an eternal perspective. We act and react from our limited perspective of what is best for us this very moment.

Until we determine in our hearts to get in line with God’s heart for His reasons, we are missing out on more than we could ever imagine. We are also failing to realize how important our days are. We may think that we are benefiting from consuming all that the Lord has provided on ourselves. We fail to realize the eternal impact of our selfishness.

 Open my eyes, Lord,
