Ephesians Chapter Three
1. When I think of all this, I, Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jesus for the benefit of you Gentiles. Assuming, by the way, that you know God gave me the special responsibility of extending his grace to you Gentiles. As I briefly wrote earlier, God himself revealed his mysterious plan to me. As you read what I have written, you will understand my insight into this plan regarding Christ. God did not reveal it to previous generations, but now by his Spirit he has revealed it to his holy apostles and prophets.
And this is God’s plan: Both Gentiles and Jews who believe the Good News share equally in the riches inherited by God’s children. Both are part of the same body, and both enjoy the promise of blessings because they belong to Christ Jesus. By God’s grace and mighty power, I have been given the privilege of serving him by spreading this Good News.
Though I am the least deserving of all God’s people, he graciously gave me the privilege of telling the Gentiles about the endless treasures available to them in Christ. I was chosen to explain to everyone this mysterious plan that God, the Creator of all things, had kept secret from the beginning.
Isaiah Chapter Forty Five
“I will give you the treasures of darkness And hidden wealth of secret places, So that you may know that it is I, The LORD, the God of Israel, who calls you by your name.
As I was praying this morning these verses spoke to me so I read them and was thinking about them when Father spoke to me and asked me to write down these words and share them with you. Here are his words. He said:
My dearly, dearly loved ones; it is the day of the revealing of secret treasures that are endless and abundant. It is the day of great revelation when my true secrets will be revealed. Just as I revealed unto my beloved Apostle Paul things that had never been revealed before so it will be in this time. The things I will be revealing have been hidden for ages just as the message of Christ was hidden in the scriptures and few saw the truth hidden there.
As you begin to awaken from your slumber brought on by generations of false religion then a new day will dawn. There will be unlimited power again in my church and that power will be used to put the earth back into the order of heaven. All this power has resided within you all this time and you didn’t see it because it has been buried in tradition and doubt and unbelief but will not remain hidden much longer.
My loved ones, it is my good pleasure not only to give you the kingdom but to give you every desire your heart could imagine. The day is coming soon when nothing shall be impossible for those who understand how much they are loved and how much they are chosen to bring heaven into the earthly realm.
Remember as my Beloved Son told the apostles: You did not choose me, but I chose you and ordained you that you would bear much fruit. Soon your eyes will be wide open to my plan for the universe. You will fully know and understand who you are as a child and an heir. Soon you will look around you and anything that doesn’t look like heaven to you will be changed because you will not allow it to be anything except heaven.
My loved ones, you are more than conquerors. My Son conquered death, hell, Satan and all your enemies. After he conquered all things he put you in charge. My church has been stuck in fighting mode when they should have been in reigning mode. When you say things like “The devil is running loose and destroying all he can” you are denying the truth of the scriptures. Yes there was a time when evil was in charge but those days are over. Do you not remember what was written in the letter to the Hebrews? Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil.
My church gives way too much credit to my defeated foe because they don’t know the truth of what happened when my Son defeated all enemies. Just as he promised he bound the strong man and sent his disciples to loot his house. Yet my church still magnifies the one my Son made a laughing stock of when he led captivity captive. When the dead were raised then death did not have the final say.
Do you remember what was written to the Romans? The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. May the grace of our Lord Jesus be with you. This was written to people thousands of years ago. So did Paul lie? Was not Satan crushed under their feet? It didn’t say God would crush Satan in a couple thousand years. It said soon and he said it to them. The word "Satan" doesn't just refer to the evil one but it also means adversary. There is no one or no thing that can stand in your way!
My people don’t understand what day they are in. They have been living in the past and not aware of all the works that are all finished. Yes I hear many of you gasping right here and saying “what about all the evil in the world?” There has to be a powerful enemy who is wrecking the world but there again the answer is in the scriptures where it says in the letter to the Galatians:
Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, Envying, murders, drunkenness, reveling, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.
So the evil you see in the world is not from the crooked mastermind you call the devil but it comes from the hearts of men who have not submitted their hearts to the truth and allowed the truth to live in them. Yes even murder and witchcraft and hate are all works of the flesh and not the work of some criminal, spirit, mastermind.
My church thinks they are fighting an enemy that has already been defeated. Do you remember what is written in what you call First John?
For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
So was my Son manifested into the world? So did he destroy the works of the devil or did he fail?
My children you are not fighting some great powerful force that challenges heaven. You are fighting against ignorance and the evils that lurk in the hearts of men. The most powerful beings in the entire world are not principalities and powers and wicked spirits. All these things have been put under your feet. As you were told in Ephesians that you are seated high above all principalities and powers. You sit on the throne with my Son so people are the most powerful beings on earth.
Yet some say. The thief comes to steal kill and destroy, so what about that? Let us look at in context. My Son was not addressing Satan when he said these words. If you look at what is written in John he was addressing the Pharisees when he said:
“Very truly I tell you Pharisees, anyone who does not enter the sheep pen by the gate, but climbs in by some other way, is a thief and a robber. The one who enters by the gate is the shepherd of the sheep. The gatekeeper opens the gate for him, and the sheep listen to his voice. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. When he has brought out all his own, he goes on ahead of them, and his sheep follow him because they know his voice. But they will never follow a stranger; in fact, they will run away from him because they do not recognize a stranger’s voice.” Jesus used this figure of speech, but the Pharisees did not understand what he was telling them.
Therefore Jesus said again, “Very truly I tell you, I am the gate for the sheep. All who have come before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep have not listened to them. I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved. They will come in and go out, and find pasture. The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.
My Son was not speaking of the devil when he said these things but he was telling the Pharisees that they were thieves and robbers. They stole the offerings of the people and gave them nothing but more rules to follow. They put burdens on the people that were never intended. They didn’t care for the sheep. They didn’t give the sheep rest. They were not the true shepherd but my Son was and is the True Shepherd.
So why did I lead you down this trail. You may think I was wandering but these are some of the hidden treasures that are hidden for you in the book and in the kingdom. Knowing who you are and why you are is very important. If you are a king and don’t know it you can be convinced to live like an orphan. If you have all power and don’t know then you can be brought down by the smallest foe. Have you not ever seen a grown man run from a tiny spider?
I am saying these things to awaken you my beloved. It is time to awaken and take your places as heirs of this world. My son didn’t spill his blood to save the world only to see me turn it over to some enemy you mistakenly call the antichrist. Again, there are many years of much ignorance going into that one. My beloved John told you that anyone who says that my Son did not wear a flesh and blood body but was only a spirit is antichrist. He also said there were many antichrists in his day so let go of that ignorance and move into the glorious truth.
Do you hear his words he wrote in his Epistle? Dear children, the last hour is here. You have heard that the Antichrist is coming, and already many such antichrists have appeared. From this we know that the last hour has come.
He didn’t say the last hour would come two thousand years from now. He said it was in their day. All the scriptures that the false religion tells you are for the end of the world as they call it do not pertain to that at all. They were about the end of the age of the Law of Moses and the temple system.
My Son fulfilled the law and the prophets and a new day was born. He prophesied that the temple would be destroyed and no two blocks would be attached to each other in total destruction. He also told the ones who stood before them that some of them would not die until all these things would be fulfilled. He even warned those who saw the armies coming to destroy the city they should flee to the mountains and they did. All who heeded his words left the city before the attack.
Whom did He say destruction was coming to? Do you remember his words when he said?
O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not! Behold, your house is left unto you desolate.
As you were told in the letter to the Hebrews that the old system was about to vanish away and you were also told that the way into the holiest of all was not available until the earthly tabernacle was destroyed.
Under the old system only the high priest could come into the holy place and only once a year. Under the new and everlasting priesthood that my Son established anyone from the least to the greatest can come boldly to the throne of grace any time they want. They are innocent and sinless because of the greatness of the eternal sacrifice of my Son. Each of you is a priest and welcome to come to the throne to find grace when you desire.
So here is the glorious truth. Your only enemy is ignorance of what you possess and who you are. Once you know you are my exalted children who are loved and who have already inherited all things then your lives will change.
Once you accept that the world is not coming to an end but is coming to a beautiful re-awakening where it’s hard to tell if you are on earth or in heaven. To a day when what is true spiritually becomes true physically also. When there is no sickness or war or poverty. A day when you won’t preach to your neighbor or your relatives because all of them will know me as well as you do. A day as promised in scripture when there is no feeble among you and the weakest of all is stronger than my beloved David. A day when a man dies at a hundred years old people will say that he was only a child. All these things sound crazy to you but these treasures are hidden in your own book and if you will take time to search you will find they are written in your heart also.
There are so many endless treasures waiting to be revealed but you must awaken and know who you are and when you are. The mysteries Paul said that had been hidden and yet were revealed in his day were hidden in the scriptures. It’s the same with you.
My church is trying to lay the foundation when they should be building the roof. The foundation was built upon the Apostles with my Son being the chief of all Apostles. He was truly the “sent one” which is the meaning of Apostle. He is the cornerstone and the apostles were built into the foundation. You are the city on a hill. You are the heavenly Jerusalem sent down from above. You are not children of the old slave religion but you are born of my Spirit and you are free.
It’s time to awaken to the truth that is for your day. My church is almost two thousand years behind what is available to them. A few throughout history have found these secret treasures and enjoyed great success but most are still living as if the death and resurrection of my Son never happened. They are still trying to live by laws written on stones and not living by my voice or living by Spirit laws written in their hearts. They read the book but don’t hear the voice behind the book.
They study the letter that kills but ignore the Spirit that gives life. They run around trying to defeat the one who was already defeated while ignorance is destroying their lives. They would rather blame an unseen enemy instead of dealing with the unbelief in their hearts and minds. Do you remember what was written in First John?
We know that everyone who has been born of God does not keep on sinning, but he who was born of God protects him, and the evil one does not touch him.
My loved ones, I know these things may sound harsh but I say them because there is glory available. I love you and I want you to know my love and to live in victory. When you get bruised I ache. When you get cut I bleed. We are one. I greatly long to bring you into the glorious ecstasy of the truth, and see you live a life of heaven on earth. This is available if you will only declare war on ignorance and know who you are.
These endless treasures are already within you. I am not asking you to search the world for truth. I am asking you to search your own hearts for the truth. Come inside the secret place and let me reveal to you the hidden wealth, the hidden manna, the hidden truth that will make you free from all the effects of the world.
You are my beloved children and I want you to experience heaven now and not have to wait until you leave the earth to experience it. You are the very beating of my heart. You are my delightful ones and I am so excited that soon we all walk together in the truth of the finished work of my Beloved Son. So come inside with me and let me give you endless treasures!
This is the end of the words He spoke to me earlier today.
I hope you are encouraged by these words.
Until next time,
Grow Rich in His Grace,
I love you all,
