Being Made for a Purpose 3

 unshakable ... unshakable. So many times we forget the "unshakable."

The words “Once more” signify the removal of what can be shaken—that is, created things—so that the unshakable may remain. Therefore, since we are receiving an unshakable kingdom, let us be filled with gratitude, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe. Hebrews 12:27,28

Be FILLED with gratitude. Ohhhhhhhhh Father how we need to put that into our hEARt! For no matter what we face, no matter how we feel, no matter how tough things look, we are sons in Your "unshakable" Kingdom.

No matter how bleak this world looks we must know "we ARE receiving an unshakable kingdom."

YES ... In the midst of all turmoil we are receiving an unshakable Kingdom and we MUST receive it as our rightful place of being. No longer are we citizen of some nation in this world, but we are citizens of the "unshakable kingdom."

“We MUST endure many hardships to enter the kingdom of God,” Acts 14:22

WHAT. You mean this is not a picnic, a walk in the park? You mean we must ENDURE MANY HARDSHIPS to enter.

Sure Acts 14:22 knocks over many today, but that is why there IS A SHAKING!

Time to see and understand that our journey is not one upon streets of gold, it is a wilderness journey and in it we are seeing the magnification works of the Father in all.

Look at the Israelites, they wandered the wilderness and manna fell to feed them, they struck a rock for water BUT NOT ONCE DID THEY STOP TO BUY NEW SHOES OR CLOTHES.

WHY? Father took care of ALL their needs just as He takes care of ALL our needs.

Time to fear not the trouble we face, but to know in trouble, His hand is seen.

Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we stand. And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God.

Not only that, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out His love into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, whom He has given us. Romans 5:1-5

"...rejoice in our sufferings..." I did NOT say that.

Father knows that in our sufferings character is built and that character is the Christ character!

It is when the Christ character is completed within us, that Father's work in our lives is finished, and His very own love will pour forth from our hearts into a world starving for the love of God.

The harder it feels, the more the Adam identity is showing and be assured the consuming fire is truly at work purifying His called to be as pure as He is!

In all of this shaking, I know that the unshakable Kingdom will be seen. ..... His manifested sons!

For His sons know why the shaking, for in the shaking the outer man, the Adam identity is being removed so the Christ identity may be seen!

I, John, your brother and partner in the tribulation and kingdom and perseverance that are in Jesus, was on the island of Patmos (my killing) because of the word of God and my testimony about Jesus. Rev 1:9

Read that verse again, for in it is the wonderful truth of His Kingdom!

"... your Brother ..."
"... your Partner ..."

Where does John find the Kingdom?

YES BETWEEN 'tribulation' and 'perseverance'

GLORY Father!

In the tribulations we face, the Kingdom is, and the Kingdom is seen by the 'perseverance' of them that trust the Word of life.

Here is a call for the perseverance of the saints who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.  Rev 14:12

Do you hEAR the CALL? It is ONLY hEARd in Spirit!

In the trying times we read about in the book of Revelations, is a CALL be sent for them who hEAR what the Spirit says unto the CALLED OUT.

"... Here is a call for the perseverance and faith of the saints. ..." Rev 13:10

Do we NOW see that trough the tribulations we face the CALL is for 'patience,' 'endurance' and 'faith in His Word'.

Do not fear what you are about to suffer. Look, the devil is about to throw some of you into prison to test you, and you will suffer tribulation for ten days. Be faithful even unto death, and I will give you the crown of life. Rev 2:10

What is Father's WORD unto them that suffer tribulation?

"...Be faithful even unto death (NOT THE GRAVE, BUT SELF), and I will give you the crown of life ..."

When self is dead, then one will receive the CROWN OF LIFE!

It is Him who leads us into tribulation so that we will allow His consuming fire to remove the Adam identity so that we may emerged as His FAITHFUL SONS .... His ROYAL PRIESTHOOD!
