A LIVING WORD YESTERDAY

SOUND

The Light of His Great Name Upon Human Tabernacles of Praise

I heard these words,

A place is prepared for you. Nothing has ever entered into your mind that resembles what I have prepared. This world and the things here can never compare to the heavenly things laid up for those who love me. Your love for me is tested every day by the agents from the prince of the power of the air. The god of the world has stepped up his war against the true church. His wiles are sharp and subtle. The artillery of the enemy is aimed at your mind. Beware of what you hear so that your mind is not corrupted by the words of the enemy. Return to the simplicity that is in Christ Jesus. The simplicity that is in Christ Jesus is the door of the deep things of God.

I have chosen the weak things to confound the wise. Be not high-minded, neither be unthankful, but abound with thanksgiving as you walk by faith. The walk of faith is not a fear of being lost. You must love me more than you fear being lost. You must love me more than you hate evil. The love of God is shed abroad in your heart. Now allow it to be your motivation for all that you do. Only the love of God can bring you to the spiritual understanding required for this holy relationship. The love of God was in Christ Jesus. I have placed the same love in the spiritual body of Christ. The body of Christ is the church. The church is called by my name. I am the head of the body. My name is Jesus. Is my body called by a name different from the head?

What is the name of my body if I am the head?

Beware of spirits proclaiming another Jesus. I am the same yesterday, today, and forever. Give thanks for the name that is above every name. I am God. Have I given another a name above my own?

Lift up your voice in the earth, and proclaim the goodness of God and the revelation of Jesus Christ. My goodness has embraced you in a fleshly tabernacle. It has ushered you out of the slumber of human feelings. It has energized you with strength beyond your abilities. It has followed you to the throne of grace and became an altar for bent knees and a broken heart. I have not despised your brokenness. Your thanksgiving has been received as a sweet savor of incense. Your praises are inhabited by my presence and received as a place to enthrone myself. The fire of my love has turned your offering into suitable ashes of exchange, and the wind of beauty has blown your ashes away. The wind of beauty has manifested itself as a monument of my faithfulness, and my name has taken on a special meaning at this altar of praise and prayer.

My name shall be synonymous with love, mercy, and grace unto you. When you think of my name, you shall think of a great light. The many colors of this light shall be unto you as the many things I am. You do not need to look beyond this one name, for all that I am is represented by and equated to my name. My name is holy. My name is good. I am from everlasting to everlasting and so is my name. As my name is, so am I.

Sing unto me and also sing praises unto my name. Bless me, the Lord and also bless my name. Give unto me the glory due my name. Call upon me and also call upon my name. Enter into my gates with thanksgiving and into my courts with praise. Be thankful unto me, and bless my name. I am good, and my mercy is everlasting. My truth endures to all generations. It has come unto you and made you free. Give thanks unto me. I am the Lord. Call upon my name, and make known my deeds among the people.

Sing unto me. Sing spiritual songs unto me, and talk of all my wondrous works. Glory in my holy name, and let your heart rejoice in me. Give glory unto me, and seek my face continually. Seek my strength, and remember my marvelous works that I have done. I have remembered my covenant forever. I made a covenant with Abraham. I have remembered you, for you are the seed of Christ, and, therefore, the seed of Abraham. Though you are small and few in number, I will stay the hand of your enemies and reprove the mighty if they attempt to do you wrong. Lift up your head, and be encouraged in me today. I am with you to reprove those who touch you and do you harm. "Lift up your head," I say. My name is on you, and you are called by it. Bless my holy name.
