We are at the point of “Birthing” in the world, like when a woman is about to give birth and she is hanging between life and death as she is getting ready to Bring forth Life.
We are at that point right now where darkness looms and everything is uncertain. There is pressure on the Church, on our lives, and on our spiritual lives.
But we know that change is about to happen. We must press forward!
We mentioned some time ago that just before a revival we begin to feel the presence of the Lord and the power of God and the Voice of the Lord saying that He is coming. There is a change/transition to bring to pass that shift.
We are the Foot Soldiers that will have to march and put pressure on that Gate to break it open.
Where does that pressure come from?
It comes from Prayer because we must birth the season. We must birth by turning the keys and pushing the door open.
If you look at history every 400 years something dramatic happened. It was after 400 years of slavery that the Lord sent deliverance to the people of Israel. 400 years usually marks the end of a turmoil, and the beginning of a new era in deliverance. Let us briefly look back at the history of the world and Christians.
Almost 400 years ago was when there was a major revival that brought about a lot of Pentecostal activities. The Holy Ghost swept over the world through People like Smith Wigglesworth and all those that carry the power of God mightily upon their lives. A lot of things are happening. In their time too there was a time of Intense Prayer. After that that were two World Wars and then came another Revival. There was a mighty revival that birthed Kenneth Hagan Sr. and many other renown prophets of our time. These people were birthed by reason of the Anointing that flowed in through that revival.
BUT that revival did not just pop up like that. People had to be Available and Fervent in Intercession for it to come to pass. That is where we are now. We are at the gate of this next season and we must be in position to birth it. The pressure is mounting as the darkness is thicker.
Read (Isaiah 60:1)
A Darkness has already been released and is hovering the world. This Gross wickedness, gross darkness will call out the people. But the Lord shall Arise upon you and his glory shall be seen.
It will not be hidden. It is something that will be obvious and glaring to the point where you will be targeted and put under the pressure. This is not a physical fight.
We must finish the fighting in the spirit so that the Light will Shine!💡
The first word in verse one says, ARISE. And then SHINE. The church is now in a sleepy state, but God is waking us up to begin to Rise and Stand at our Gate and keep Watch. Praise the Name of the Lord.
This is one of those things to put in perspective. The mind of the darkness that you see, the Antichrist, is already covering the earth and Gross Darkness is covering the people. There is Fear and Death covering the people. But we must Arise.
• How do we arise?
Through intercession that will cause the presence of the lord to breathe forth in us to push this pressure into the next season.
We should not be alarmed. Let us also remember that almost 400 years ago, there was a breakthrough revival that came through intercession.
Some people will be martyred even in our time too. There will be people that will be killed for the sake of their Faith. There will be pressure, sanctions, mandates, and laws that will put us under more pressure.
This is just the beginning, like a trial run. Covid-19 is just a little tester, something bigger than that is coming.
We must know spiritually that we have a Covenant with the Lord. And if you know and trust that Covenant, you are covered, and you will be covered.
(Main Scripture: Exodus 12:2-50)
This was the beginning of the ordinance of the Passover.
The Passover mirrored God sacrificing his only begotten son. God set the ordinance in place because the cry (intercession, weeping, and groaning) of the Children of God reached heaven. Pharaoh was the darkness and wicked hand upon the people.
When God now heard the voice and the cry of his people, He gave instructions to Moses who told the Priests. He told them the specific instructions of the Lord.
What were the instructions?
The instruction was for them to put the blood of the Goat or Lamb without blemish on their door posts.
First, they were to take the Lamb and after 14 days they would kill the lamb, depending on the size of the family. They were not supposed to keep any leftovers. The blood was to be put on every person’s door on the right, left, and on the lintel. The intestines and the inner parts where to be burned.
They had to eat their bread unleavened because there was no time to allow the bread to rise.
And they were supposed to Eat, Dressed up and Ready to go.
Just like Then, the trumpet is sounding right now. We are supposed to be Battle Ready!
Notice how the scriptures says, “EAT” the Passover lamb, not celebrate it. The Passover is referring to the Lamb. The Angels of Death would pass Through, and Over the Homes that had the Sign of the Blood.
The enemy always wants to have his own Counterfeit presentation. He is insisting that people should take the Mark of the Beast so he can identify people he can lock down and claim as his own forever. This will not be our portion in Jesus Mighty Name!
How do we get the Mark of the blood?
• We NEED to believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and RECIEVE Him.
When we receive Him, we have the appropriation of the blood which was poured out. The Angels recognize that Sign. Same way the blood of the goat and the blood of the lamb was poured out of its body and became a Sign on the door of God’s people in Goshen.
We need to stay indoors. Why?
There is no room for experimenting with sin outside the Bloodline. The Church itself has become a place where the devil strikes deals with Pastors and congregants alike.
The Lord says if we are within the bloodline we will be covered. Once we step out of the bloodline, we expose ourselves to be struck down by the angel that is dishing out Death.
Another reason is there is Spiritual Warfare that is taking place. What happened that night was unimaginable. Warfare that you cannot imagine took place in the spirit and played out in the physical and nobody could decode it.
It was a matter of obedience so that you will be in the right camp in the right place. That Angel of death was executing judgement. That Angel that executes justice is blind to who is Jew or not.
It does not matter how many times you have been in the Church, whether you are a Church worker, a Pastor, Bishop, or whoever. There should be a Recognizable Sign of the Blood, not just a dot, but a Splash of the Blood.
The same way, we are at the point where justice is about to be executed and we are under pressure. Darkness may be all around us, but we need to be within the bloodline.
What is the time of intercession?
This is the time for intercession, time to eat and partake in the Passover. The Bible uses the word Eat. When they Ate the Passover, they were supposed to be do it Indoors. There were not supposed to be any leftovers. If the lamb was too big for a family, an agreement between them and the neighbor was made. Then they would Get Dressed and Get Ready.
In (Exodus 12:29) The Lord struck the Firstborns of Egypt. He did not even spare the animals. Pharaoh told Moses and the Children of Israel to leave and go serve the Lord.
The same way, there is going to be a release of the people of God.
Read (Luke 22:11-19 and 1 Corinthians 11:24).
In this scripture, the Passover was being Rehearsed.
When we wait upon the Lord and have communion with him, He does not want interruptions. He wants the perfect Atmosphere and place.
What we call Communion means an Exchange of Life. That is what’s communion is. That was what the Passover was. Life was taken so that Life will be Given.
The Bible says in (Hebrews 9:22) “for without the shedding of the blood, there is no Remission of sin.”
The Lamb was killed so that the lives of the people within the bloodline will be Spared. Same way when Jesus died. He was Killed.
In Luke chapter 22, He was telling the disciples that they were going to enter a New Covenant following his Death and Resurrection.
There is going to be a global breakthrough and the kingdom of God would be spread. From that moment when his blood touched the ground and there was an exchange of life, you will take this gospel to the uttermost parts of the earth.
They wanted to rush His execution, so that they could go and celebrate the Passover. They did not know that the Passover was Who they were just Killing, The Passover lamb was being killed right then.
If only they knew that that was the Passover of God coming to Pass.
Ask yourself.
How do we get ready? How do we prepare?
- Eat the Lamb and partake in Him. Receive His life that was exchanged for you. How do you eat? Exchange of body fluids. He is giving His life for us to take it. We are the Bride of Christ. He is the husband of the Church.
- Taste and see that the Lord is Good. The word “Koinonia” means to Exchange, Fellowship, and Participation. Ask the Lord to visit with you. Get close to Him. Switch off from the world around you.
Communion is fellowship between you and the Lord is the pleasure of getting to know Him. Remember how he has already poured out His Blood so we can receive.
The excess we were talking about in (Exodus 12) means anything that makes you say, “that’s just the way I am” or “you have to deal with it” Must Go. That is the Sacrifice that needs to be Burned to ashes.
We need to Stay in our Watches so we can Hear, See and, Experience what the Spirit of the Lord is saying.
It is in that Presence that we can Love and Desire to Study the Word. The more He blows it open in your spirit the more understanding will be given to you.
To Wrap it All Up:
• Always be Ready to Go. Put on the whole armor of God. (Ephesians 6:10)
• We need to be in “readiness” while we seek the Passover within the bloodline.
• Be ready with the Word. Gird your feet with the Preparation of the Gospel and Proclaim it because there will be a famine.
• In the middle of everything, God is going to bless those who are in right standing with him.
