This morning we had a celebration and a really good message on Resurrection Life coming to us.  A brother spoke about the significance of the resurrection, showed a diagram on the board (see below) and shared many verses regarding this most crucial subject.  He also shared about how the One, Who is Resurrection Life itself ("I Am the Resurrection and the Life!"), made Himself available to mankind to send His life-giving Spirit right into us - we're in Christ & He's in us, bringing this amazing life and power right into us to be our very life (and to transform us into His image)!

Through this sharing I got some light - resurrection is only needed because of death.  Through Adam, corruption and death entered and misery, pain and death becomes the back drop of our whole existence.  Then to rescue and recover man, the Son of Man came and lived a perfect life, completely obedient to the Father, and died the death of a man.  But because of His perfection, God accepts His sacrifice and raises Him from the dead to die no more.  His was complete victory over sin and death!

And now, as a result, the Last Adam became a life-giving Spirit (1 Cor 15:45), so that all He is in resurrection can be imputed into our very being: "That which is born of Spirit is spirit" and "He that is joined to the Lord is one Spirit with Him."  (John 3:6  & 1 Cor 6:17)

And how is resurrection life experienced?  In death!  The sharing brother read several verses about believers experiencing death and being "killed all day long . . . sheep lead to the slaughter" etc.  And this is specifically where some light came to me - we experience all kinds of tribulations, sufferings and death, but why?  In God's loving plan for His children, it is so resurrection life can spring forth in us through those situations, and prove that His life source in us is more than sufficient to meet our every need!

I'm still digesting this, but one thing I can say is HALLELUJAH!  :yeah:

In rereading the above post, it seems real obvious to me that resurrection is only needed where there is death, but I have to say my apprehension of this fact yesterday was more real.  That is, before I had more of a mental comprehension about it, but getting some new light made it fresh!

The main seeing to me was that whenever death comes to us in the form of sufferings or trials or our old life needing to be crossed out, it is to produce resurrection life in us (which is just Christ).

Yeah, stuff gets fluffed up, so to speak. We could talk about THE VALLEY! The one in Psalm 23.

Yes the "shadow of death" . . . yet our portion is: "He makes me to lie down in green pastures" and "He restores my soul!"  That is resurrection life!

Yes, the imagery has both temporal and eternal applications.

    • Exhortation - October 24, 2024

      Albert Finch posted a blog entry in Albert Finch Ministry,

      You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • The Simchat Torah War -- Is this a Water Breaking Moment of Revival?

      George posted a topic in Biblical Topic Videos,

      George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      George posted a topic in Study Group,

      Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2

      George posted a topic in Study Group,

      Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
