What is man that You should be mindful of him, and the son of man that You care for him? Yet You have made him a little lower than God, and You crown him with glory and majesty! You make him to rule over the works of Your hands. Psalm 8:4-6.
I will rejoice greatly in the LORD, My soul will exult in my God; For He has clothed me with garments of salvation, He has wrapped me with a robe of righteousness, As a bridegroom decks himself with a garland, And as a bride adorns herself with her jewels. Isaiah 61:10.
Today your LORD (יהוה) God says:
I created you to be a person of dignity and nobility, clothed in royal glory and honor. But Adam stripped himself of his robe of dominion royalty and gave it to the devil and became naked. He made covenant with the devil, and just like when Jonathan made a covenant with David and the soul of Jonathan was knit to the soul of David, Jonathan stripped himself of the robe that was on him and gave it to David, with his armor, including his sword and his bow and his belt. 1 Samuel 18:1-4.
But Jesus came to undo the works of the devil and Jesus made covenant with Me as the second and last Adam. So for those of you who receive Him and are born again of the imperishable seed of My Word, you are no longer in Covenant with the devil. Your soul (mind, will and emotions) is no longer knit to him so that he can control you in fear. You are now part of the body of Christ and I have clothed you and sealed you in Him. You are knit with Me. In Jesus, I gave you back your dignity. You are no longer naked. You are clothed in the garments of Salvation (Jesus) and the robe of righteousness (My own robe that in covenant I have given to you). I released you from your sins by His blood and washed of your filth (filthy rags). In Him I have made you a royal priesthood, a holy nation, My own special people called out of darkness into My marvelous Light. You are not the same old man you once were; you are a new creation in Christ.
The devil deceived Adam of his dominion authority and, in making covenant with him, Adam made the devil the “prince” of the air and the “god” of this world, which had been Adam. The devil stole man’s identity but Jesus took it back for you. Your new identity is now in Christ, where it was when I first created mankind in My image.
Now, I hope you are beginning to understand why you pray to Me and come to Me in Jesus. My apostle Paul understood by divine revelation and it made him call Jesus the indescribable gift. And he advised you by the inspiration of My Spirit, “Whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through Him to God the Father.” Colossians 3:17. All you offer to Me through Jesus becomes pure, perfect, and holy, beyond reproach. Anything that does not go through Him to Me is profane fire on My altar.
I offer you a beautiful opportunity to be one with Me and live as the body of Christ, I give Him to you so you can live your life through Him. He is the filter that purifies. He is My Word and My Word purifies you. Like filtered water. The filter takes out and holds the impurities. Jesus removes your sins, iniquities, lawless deeds, the wrong motives, and any filthy things you have done in your flesh. He is the filter through which I run you, your life, your prayers, and your works to make them holy, blameless and beyond reproach before Me.
I did for you in Jesus what you could not do on your own. In Jesus I make you perfect in My eyes. I tell you that, “For by one offering He has perfected for all time those who are sanctified.” Hebrews 10:14. And the Holy Spirit also testifies this to you; for after saying, “This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, says the LORD: I will put My laws upon their heart, and on their mind I will write them,” and then He says to you, “And their sins and their lawless deeds, I will remember no more.” Hebrews 10:15-16. That is My Covenant. Not only have I cleansed you in Christ, I have also given you a new heart and put My Spirit in you, and I have put My Words in your heart and in your mind. I have put My Words in your mouth and covered you with the shadow of My hand to establish the heavens and the earth. The devil may be running around trying to take your territory as the former “prince” of the air and “god” of this world, but when you are a new creation in Christ for you that is not so. You have back the authority over him. And he knows it so he will try to take it illegally. He is a liar and the father of lies. Do not swallow his bait. He only comes to steal your authority, which is My Word in your mouth, kill, and destroy your destiny. But just as Jonathan gave David his robe and his armor, so too I have given you My righteousness and My armor. So put on the full armor of God that I give you and stand your ground. You have been redeemed. Your soul is knit with Me and not with the devil. You have My joy and My peace and I pour My love in your heart by the gift of the Holy Spirit. So stop entertaining the words of the stranger instead of that of your Shepherd.
Know this, in Jesus I did everything for you that you could not and cannot do. Everything you cannot do, I do for you in Christ. I heal you, forgive you, bless you, strengthen you, provide for you, enlighten you, give you wisdom, give you victory, make you a champion, make you righteous, holy, blameless, beyond reproach, perfect, prosperous and powerful. What an indescribable gift Jesus is, the Holy Spirit is, but they are all one and the same with Me. I am all and all. It is all Me. I was in Jesus reconciling the world to Myself, not holding your sins, your rebellion, against you. This fills all in all but you are part of it. You are One with Me in Christ and the Holy Spirit. And I want all to be One in Me. Let the Word dwell in your richly.
Never unplug, you are on life support system. A branch has to stay on the vine to bear fruit. Do not grieve the Holy Spirit, never unplug from your source. Never disconnect from the filter.
I see and love in you what I see and love in Christ. Christ is the true you. You were created in Him and by Him in the beginning, in His image and likeness. Understand this, I do not love you because of Jesus, I gave you Jesus because I love you. In Him I took away all that estranged us and I broke down the dividing wall that sin had created. In Him, I brought you who were far from Me near to Me. I brought you into Covenant with Me and united with you as One in Him. I took your sentence of condemnation and justly paid it for you in Him. I punished Him in your place. He held all your evil and only let through the pure. He held all the bad and only let through the perfect. In Jesus I restored your identity, nobility and dignity. He paid the ransom for all. You have a paraclete and He sent you another paraclete, the one by your side and also within. I have saved you through and through to your innermost parts.
And anything you ask in His Name, I will do. Through Him it is filtered to the perfect prayer. “In that day,” Jesus told His disciples, and He was speaking of the day I would raise Him from the dead, “you will ask in My Name and I do not say to you that I will request of the Father on your behalf, for the Father Himself loves you because you have loved Me and have believed that I came forth from the Father.” John 16:26-27.
Yes, He came forth from Me and in seeing Him, you are seeing Me. You have seen Me and you know Me, just read the Gospels and you will see Me in action by My Word, teaching, preaching, healing, delivering, blessing, providing, and increasing all who came to Me. My own arm reached down in Christ and brought salvation, and My own arm gathered you to Myself and held you in My bosom. “Behold, the Lord (Adonai) LORD (Yaweh) will come with might, with His arm ruling for Him. Behold, His reward is with Him and His recompense before Him. Like a shepherd He will tend His flock, in His arm He will gather the lambs and carry them in His bosom; He will gently lead the ewes.” Isaiah 40:11.
I have purified you in Christ because of My great love for you. And you were dead in your trespasses and sins, in which you formerly walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, of the spirit that is now working in the sons of disobedience. Among them we too all formerly lived in the lusts of our flesh, indulging the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the rest. But I, being rich in mercy, because of My great love with which I love you, even when you were dead in your transgressions, made you alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), and raised you up with Him, and seated you with Him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, so that in the ages to come I will show the surpassing riches of My grace in kindness toward you in Christ Jesus. For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is My gift; not as a result of works, so that no one may boast. For you are My workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which I prepared beforehand so that you would walk in them. Ephesians 2:1-10.
Receive the abundance of grace and the gift of righteousness and reign in life through Christ Jesus as you were designed to do.
I love you more than you can ever fully comprehend. Never underestimate My power, the power I have entrusted to you have in Jesus and the Holy Spirit. Use it with reverence, nobility, and love in all gratitude.
