Sit and Set 6

Now that Truth of His will for this earth is seen lets look at our calling as priests unto Him and this earth.

"For every high priest chosen from among men is appointed to act in behalf of men in things relating to God, to offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins. He is able to exercise gentleness and forbearance toward the ignorant and erring, since he himself also is liable to moral weakness and physical infirmity. And because of this he is obliged to offer sacrifice for his own sins as well as for those of the people" Hebrews 5:1-3 (Amplified)

We know our High Priest has redeemed us with His blood and has given unto us His Holy Ghost. What we need to see is how we must exercise ‘gentleness and forbearance,’ for we ourselves are prone to be entrapped as they are for we still occupy the body of flesh.

Growth can be slow and at times 1 wonders if any thing is happening at all. I have been in sit and set for some time now for it is my manna for my needs.

"But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a dedicated nation, God's own purchased, special people, that you may SET FORTH THE WONDERFUL DEEDS AND DISPLAY THE VIRTUES AND PERFECTIONS OF HIM Who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light." 1 Peter 2:9

As a priest .... wait not as a priest but a "royal" priesthood I shall go forth among humanity, in the midst of the wheel of everyday life, to show forth His virtues, His graces, His Perfections, His lovely character.

As I see that I lean not upon my strength to do so .... For I know out of my belly shall flow living waters of Life. For what could be days of teaching will come out in minutes and the hearer will receive the flow and walk away changed .....

Beat your plowshares into swords, and your pruninghooks into spears: let the weak say, I am strong. Joel 3:10

But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are:

That no flesh should glory in his presence. 1 Corinthians 1:27-29

Just as Gideon had 10,000 men ready for war and yet God said ""The people are still too many; bring them down to the water and I will test them for you there."

God is God!

He knows the end from the start and He needs not test the heart ..... BUT for the sake of men and His glory He calls them that desires but to bring all glory unto Him.

Let the sons of God knee, to allow this river to flow from within to them without that they may see the glory of Him who has a plan and purpose for all humankind.

I am called and chosen to SHOW FORTH HIS VIRTUES.

Job put it so wisely when he said “Hear diligently my speech, and my declaration with your ears.”  Job 13:7

Peter said “that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light: …” 1 Peter 2:9

 The Greek word given for 'shew' has only been used once in the New Testament, it is EK-AGGELLO. EK means OUT OF, and AGGELLO means angel, or literally MESSENGER.

How one sees that being His royal priesthood that the message and the messenger become one and all that proceeds from the messenger, be it a message in words, or a life expressed, it is to declare that He hath called us out of darkness into his marvellous light!

 We were “not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.”

WHAT TRUTH …. WHAT A MESSAGE TO SHOUT

MY LIFE IS BUT PRAISE UNTO HIM!

It is not only a telling forth, giving voice, but it is a living manifestation OF THE SONS OF GOD.

The Amplified translation gives, 'that you may SET FORTH the wonderful deeds and DISPLAY the virtues and Perfections of Him...

A vessel seen of all reflecting the glory and praises of Him within, seen without by anointed lips!

A belly not given over to the desires of the world but a belly where His Living Words may flow from.

Children of the Light ... not of the darkness.

But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) And hath raised us up together, and made us SIT together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: That in the ages to come he might SHEW the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. Ephesians 2:4-7

The Greek word here for “shew” means "to exhibit, to put on display like a work of art, to demonstrate." The Amplified Bible reads, "He did this that He might CLEARLY DEMONSTRATE through the ages to come the immeasurable (limitless, surpassing) riches of His free grace in kindness and goodness of heart toward us in Christ Jesus."

“Show... demonstrate ... exhibit the riches, of His grace - to those who do not know it.”

I’m telling this world … It is show time!

God’s grace shall be knowing throughout this world by His called sons of God who are sold out to Him as His sons!

GRACE and MERCY in a world of violence and wrath



Daily my heart bleeds as I look about this world and see the suffering from wars, diseases, famine and greed. My heart cries "God my God why!" 

In His gentle and loving way He whispers to me with Words of Life telling me I need to first see before I can make others see.

THE MANIFESTATION OF THE SONS OF GOD!
