The Holy Spirit also empowers our spirit to recognize, perceive and know the comings of the Spirit of God and to identify the goings of the Lord's presence.
Jacob awoke from his
sleep, and said: "Surely the Lord is in this place, and I did not know
it" (Genesis
28:16).
To change our present state of being, it is
essential to take our focus off of what was and that which has hindered and
left us unfulfilled or dissatisfied.
Jesus asks each
person, "Who do you say that I AM?"
The convictions you hold about God and
yourself in Christ directly determine what you display in life.
Being acutely aware of Christ in us makes all
things possible.
“You shall also
decide and decree a thing, and it shall be established for you; and the 'Or'
light of God's favor shall shine upon your ways” (Job 22:28).
God created in us a natural desire to decree
and process something that we desire into existence.
In addition to being consciously aware of its
actuality, we must take on its image and likeness.
Jesus said it this
way: “If I be lifted up, magnified and exalted to a place of consciousness
in your heart, I will draw all men unto Me” (John 12:32).
No one is able to come to Jesus unless His
Father draws that person to Him, for Jesus and His Father are One!
Therefore, the Father is the state of
consciousness (in which the Believer dwells) that draws to us the
manifestations of the things we desire in life.
When we desire Jesus, the Father draws us
unto and then into Jesus.
“No man has ever seen
God at any time; the only unique Son, or the only begotten God, who is in the
bosom in the intimate presence of the Father, He has declared Him.
“He has revealed Him
and brought Him out where He can be seen; He has interpreted Him and He has
made Him known”
(John
1:18).
You must sanction your consciousness to rise
upon Christ until He becomes tangibly touchable or real within you.
It is the Christ in us that gives our spirit
the ability to discern and consciously feel, see, hear and become a spirit that
speaks for Him.
For no one can serve two masters; he or she
will love the One (Christ) and despise the other.
When we are aware of our right state of being
(in Christ) and believe it to be truth (the Spirit of Truth) we will manifest
that reality (Christ consciousness).
By taking on the candor of that attitude, we
mirror that particular mansion or state of being in our life.
Take On the Mind of Christ
A mansion is a large, stately dwelling place
or house.
The English word manse was
originally defined as a property large enough for the parish priest to maintain
himself.
Manor is derived from the same root and
denotes a territorial holding granted to a lord who would remain or dwell
there.
When I speak of a mansion, I am referring to
a spiritual dwelling place, a state of being, an attitude, habitual action,
personality or place of habitation in which we live, dwell, contemplate or
spend most of our time.
A mansion, therefore, is a higher plane, a
different attitude, a different thought process.
It is taking on a new identity. We move out
of old ways of thinking and confessing.
When we take on the mind of Christ, we begin
thinking higher thoughts. This moves us out of one mansion or state of being
into a higher one.
In Scripture, we are called the temples,
houses or dwelling places for the Lord.
Jesus went to prepare a place (mansion) for
us.
The mansion to which He referred is not just
a future place of residency in heaven for us to inhabit after we shed our
earthly bodies.
It is where Christ is — in a higher state of
spiritual existence and being. It is amazing that we can dwell there too.
Jesus makes all of His decisions with His
Father (who exists in a higher spiritual state), the One who sent Him, so His
testimony is reliable and valid.
"’I am One of
the two bearing testimony concerning Myself; and My Father, who sent Me, He
also testifies about Me.’
“Then they said to
Him, ‘Where is this Father of Yours?’
“Jesus answered them
as He stood in the temple treasury, ‘You know My Father as little as you know
Me. If you knew Me, you would know My Father also.’
“Jesus said, ‘I am
going away (into a higher state or mansion), and you will be looking for Me (by
natural means of man's laws, traditions or knowledge), and you will die in
under the curse of your sin. Where I am going (into the spiritual mansions of
heaven), it is not possible for you to come. You are from below (natural,
earthly and sensual; your spirit has not been born again or awakened from the
dead); IAM from above (spiritually alive, eternal and heavenly). You are of
this world, of this earthly order; I am not of this world (IAM from a higher
realm, a heavenly kingdom of mansions). That is why I told you that you will
die in and under the curse of your sins; for if you do not believe that IAM He
Whom I claim to be—if you do not adhere to, trust in and rely on Me, you will
die in your sins’" (John
8:15-24).
Jesus told us that He was going to His
heavenly Father, so that Believers could do greater works than He manifested on
earth.
When we learn how to go into the mansion that
Jesus has gone before to prepare for us, we will emerge as the Bride of Christ
and the Sons of God.
We will do the greater works He foretold.
“Most assuredly, I
say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and
greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father” (John 14:12).
If the greater One is dwelling within us,
orchestrating the visions that cross the screens of our hearts (imaginations),
we cannot help but see how to manifest His greatness here on earth as it is in
heaven.
“For the Father loves
the Son and shows Him all things that He Himself does; and He will show Him
greater works than these, that you may marvel” -(John 5:20).
When the Believer awakens to the reality that
Christ dwells within his or her imagination (Christ consciousness), he or she
is empowered to accomplish miraculous feats.
“For it is impossible
for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted the heavenly gift, and
have become partakers of the Holy Spirit, and have tasted the good word of God
and the powers of the age to come, if they fall away, to renew them again to
repentance, since they crucify again for themselves the Son of God, and put Him
to an open shame”
(Hebrews
6:4-6).
Learning to dwell in the active, life-giving
power of Christ consciousness causes us to be centered in God's perfect will.
The peace of God gives us access to the Holy
Spirit's revelation knowledge.
Prayer, dreams and visions open the window of
revelation that is from another future realm of time, which allows us to reach
inside eternity to retrieve godly wisdom.
When we discover how to access and understand
God's revelation, His knowledge becomes an open gateway.
God's wisdom freely flows from eternity,
reaching into the temporal realm of time, to bring about and display His divine
perspectives.
