A LIVING WORD YESTERDAY

SOUND

The Light and Furnace of God For Sacrificial Praises

After studying Abraham, these words came unto me from the Spirit of the Lord,

What I have promised, I will perform. You have believed; therefore, are you counted righteous. You have struggled in vain as you have considered so many things of yourself. Now cease your struggle to make things happen, and enter into the works of the rest. The works performed in the works of the rest are spiritual products and not carnal manifestations of self-righteousness. Enter again into my rest, and cease from your own works of the flesh. Remember, I ceased from my works on the seventh day. Allow me to show you the beauty of the works of the rest.

Look to my sacrifice of the Lamb of God. Behold your death, burial, and resurrection, which was your part in the covenant that I made with you. Know of a surety, that the effects of the covenant are now working on your behalf. You will behold the power of the smoking furnace and the burning lamp in your life continually. Look to me, your furnace and your lamp. I am your light and your consuming fire. Look to this light and this ability to consume the things that need to be consumed.

Avoid the temptations that come with enticing persuasions to draw you into a trust in the flesh. I have not prevented you from receiving the promises given you. In due time, the fulfillment shall manifest itself. The tempter has come to seduce you to lean on the arm of flesh. Beware of the hands near you, which shall become the hands of offerings from the flesh. You must be fully persuaded lest your love for the owner of these hands become the persuasion that convinces you to trust in the flesh. Many have brought upon themselves great sorrow because of their intimacy with the offerings of the flesh. The offspring of these relationships hinder revival in the lives of many even now. The offspring of these intimacies with the works of the flesh are against you at this very moment. Unless you cast out these offspring of the works of your flesh, you shall be bound by their contempt.

Remember the new covenant that I have made with you, and cease your continual war with these offspring. Cast them out, and continue your walk of faith. Know of a truth, that the power of your baptism has assured you of the benefits of the covenant. You are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh as you were buried with me in baptism.

I have revealed myself unto you. Now come, and sup with me, and I will eat of your praise and your worship. With my light and my furnace, I shall consume your offerings as a sacrifice well-pleasing. As a sweet savor of incense, I have received your offerings, and now I will confirm my promises through that which is weak and unlikely. I have promised. It is impossible for me to lie. I will do a marvelous work for my name's sake; therefore, fear not that the promises will not come to pass. I have promised. Consider not your own self, neither the deadness of the things about you. Do not stagger at my promises through unbelief, but be strong in faith while you give glory to me. Be fully persuaded that what I have promised, I will perform.

Pray and your effectual prayers shall avail much. Pray not for those who are not fit. They have declared their unworthiness by their actions. You cannot change my mind concerning these things that I shall crystallize before your face and before the world. Go on to the things that are of purpose, and cease your worrying and praying about the things outside of my will.

Many are drunk on the wine of worry and unbelief. Their spiritual drunkenness has mocked their faith and impregnated them with minds of human reasoning and not the mind of faith. Their spiritual incest has produced the filthy seed of the hour. The seeds have now become abodes for unbelievers who follow not faith. Now abides faith, hope, and charity. Follow the steps of the father of faith. Follow hope. It will not make you ashamed. Follow charity. It will lead you to fulfillment. Follow peace with all men and holiness and then you will see me, the promiser.
