Living in the Real World


Each and every part/person, making up the family of God, every sibling has been grace wired with an intricacy that only God is able to accomplish.
There is not one person having been grace-wired by the Father that I can not learn something from.

In pondering on this, it came to me, that if I/we do not rightly discern the church, which is His body as it talks about in Corinthians, we will actually be allowing very unneeded repercussions to do damage to it.
I realize the scriptures used in my reference are used in the remembrance, partaking of what folks call, “The Lord’s Supper, but I am seeing something far more than a oft repeated memorial service.

In my opinion the norm for the child of God, his ‘birth-right’ is revelation, a intuitive harmonious flow, out from our inner spirit-union with the Father.
“Man shall not live by bread alone, but buy Every word that flows from the mouth of God.” Jesus said, “I am the true bread of heaven“, and I further believe, He is now in us, which is refereed to as ‘the hidden’ manna.

While waiting for my wife at lunch time to bring her home, the thought crossed my mind, ‘If I am unable to discern-see by revelation the Church, which is His body in its true beauty and wonder, then I will inadvertently only obscure and cloud the issue even further by adding more scaffolding to that which is already blinding so many.’

It has come to my understanding over the past while that when (and maybe not totally confined to this event) Paul was stoned and left for dead, being caught up into the heavenly realm, it was there he was entrusted with the Father’s blue-print of the finished and perfect Church. A shadow type of this was when God gave Moses the blue-print for the tent of meeting and later the Tabernacle and everything associated with it.
I am inclined to believe that is something that didn’t come to an end when Paul left the building, planet; this blue-print has never been altered or changed.

Once again the heart beat of the spirit is resonating within me so loudly I am afraid I might burst with joy. Knowing Papa is making known His patent, his blue-print to those who want Him alone, and not ’their’ own kingdoms!
Oh how we stand in such a needy place Father God, in Jesus name I ask that you would richly and lavishly pour out from your spirit deep within us your church, the spirit of wisdom and revelation, in the TRUE knowledge of your son Christ Jesus, that our inner most being would be flooded with light, seeing and knowing that with you, ALL things are possible.


Pardon my French here, but the poop is going to hit the fan unlike anything Christendom has ever witnessed, as the chaff of religion and its works are exposed through the foolish, weak, base things, us His church. Just as He said, “In the world you WILL have trouble, but be of good cheer, for I have over come the world.”
Also, the gates of hell will rise up against His ordered blue-print for the Church, but they will NOT prevail.



Religion is big business-duh, there are so many wanting the inside straight knowing of how to make ‘their’ church grow. First, it isn’t ‘their’ church in the first place, and second, what I am seeing is that anything that has nothing to do with His perfect Church is going to be done away with much like what Michael Angelo said in response to him being question regarding a famous statue he created. “I simply saw the horse inside, trapped within the marble, I merely chipped, removed everything away that kept it captive.”

Even so Lord, COME!

I wasn’t going to say anything more here, until I listened to the this pod (sowing and reaping) cast for the 4th time, and this time I believe I heard Father speaking to me loud and clear through Brad and Wayne’s conversation. It fits in well with the above thoughts.
They were talking about how so many believers are convinced because of whatever reasons, God is unable to move in their town, county, country where ever. Wayne goes on to say, “God can take over, God’s spirit is already moving, living, thriving where you live. The question is not, is he moving here, it’s really whether I’m seeing it or not, and if I’m not, God would you open my eyes and let me see.”

He is among us, he is among His people, it does not get any closer than where He is, in us as us.
