THE PURE GOSPEL THAT TRANSFORMS
The pure gospel, the life, death, resurrection and ascension of Christ Jesus is the good news of the gospel. Jesus is the power of God to those who will believe it for it creates a new creature in Christ, it transforms lives, changes hearts, causes the spirit to become alive to God again.

Romans 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek.
The pure gospel of the work of the cross is the power of God to those who are being saved. It is the life of dying to the flesh and living in the resurrection power placed within us through Christ. It is the work of pouring His righteousness into us, His holiness. It is the process of being conformed into His image.

I Corinthians 1: 18 For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God
The RAW, PURE, most POWERFUL Gospel is to exalt, lift up and reveal Jesus Christ, the King of kings, the Lord of Lords. Jesus life on earth revealed the Father God. He taught the Kingdom of God. It is a heart Kingdom that operates spirit to Spirit. There is no lack in the Kingdom of God because all things are possible with God. Jesus revealed and gave us the ability to live exactly like He did. He gave us the ability to have the same communion with the Holy Spirit and intimate relationship with the Father God.

He gave us the Holy Ghost who lives with us and IN us forever. (John14:17 & 23)                               He placed within us the complete Godhead that we might be complete in Christ, lacking nothing. (Colossians 2:9-10)                                                                                                                                                                      

Jeus gave us the baptism in the sweetheart of Heaven, the baptism of Love to experience the measure of His great love, He gave us the baptism of power enabling us to live in His grace and truth, and the baptism of fire that we might destroy the works of darkness as He did. When God breathes on something or someone it lives, it becomes what it is supposed to be. There will be no limits. It will be explosive to the enemy plans. To God be the Glory!   JANEE

   The Golden Lampstand:  EXODUS 25:31-40; 37:17-24   HEBREWS  8:5 & 9:1-5

CHRIST IN YOU, THE HOPE OF GLORY! Colossians 1:27 The Son.

In Him was the life, and the life was the light of men John 1:4

Gods power, His life, and His love are all in His lampstand in our inner man.

The 7 Spirits of God, the 9 fruits, the nine gifts. I Corinth 12; Isaiah 11:1-3

The OIL, Holy Spirit the anointing in you. I john 2:20; 2:27

God the Father: One solid piece of pure gold

The golden lampstand is Heavenly. The pattern of the one in Heaven was shown to Moses on the mountain and he was told to make it on earth as it was in Heaven. It was placed into the Holy Place as the only light in the temple. In the new covenant in Christ the believer would receive the Lampstand into his inner man as the light of the Lord. It was to be placed so the light would always shine forward. God’s light is always shining forward into the present and future, never in the past. The lampstand was a hammered piece of work, made of pure gold. We too in our journeys with Jesus are a hammered work for it is the trying of our faith that works in us the  pure gold. This light was to burn day and night. It was to be an eternal light that would never go out. It required keeping the flame of His love and His light burning brightly in us. The Oil for our lampstand is Holy Spirit. This Reminds me of the old song, “Give me oil in my lamp  keep it burning, burning, burning; Keep it burning til the break of day.” Lord let us be of the five virgins who bought plenty of oil to keep their lamps burning until Jesus arrived to take them home.(Matt.25.)

The fire in the lamps reveals the 7 spirits of God, the fire of God that is in Christ and therefore in us. This fire flows out of the love of God that is in us. The 7 spirits of God are listed in Isaiah 11:1-3 speaking of Christ as the branch, the stem, the shoot from Israel. Israel is our roots, and nourishment is found for us in our roots. Jesus came to us as the redeemer and all the promises of God came from our roots. Revelation 5 tells us these 7 spirits were sent out into all the earth. Likewise, in us they are God in us flowing out. The 7 spirits are “The spirit of the Lord, The spirit of the fear of the Lord and spirit of knowledge, the spirit of wisdom and spirit of understanding, the spirit of counsel and spirit of might.

As believers, what is within us is revealed in this lampstand. The Shaft, Jesus was made unto us Wisdom, Righteousness, Sanctification and Redemption.(4 knobs on shaft) 1Corinth 1:30. In Revelation 4 you can see Christ is the Lion, the Eagle, the man, and the calf which represents the 4 Zoa or the abiding presence of Christ in us. His very nature is within us that we can obtain through His promises (2Peter 1:3-4).

From the shoot are the branches on each side. On one side there are 3 knobs-flowers and on the other side there are 3 knobs- flowers. These reveal the gifts of Holy Spirit that flows from us and the fruits of Holy Spirit that is in us. God wants us to have love and power to reach out and build the Kingdom of God. To be the light of the world, the light on a lampstand as Jesus spoke of, we need both love and power as He modeled for us.

The scriptures teach us the lampstand is personal, in every believer. It is in each body of Christ, the city, the nation, the world. In The Ephesians church of Revelation 2:1-7 it is revealed that this lampstand burns in us through our intimate love relationship with the Lord Jesus. It burns out of love; It burns out of faith; it burns out of surrender to the Holy Spirit and His ways that are so much higher than ours. It does not burn out of a religious head knowledge of works; it burns out of pure devoted love for the Lord Jesus which results in love for others as well. So as many sang in church as a small child, “Don’t let the devil blow it out.”  Treat offense, unforgiveness, critical attitudes, judgmental attitudes, and pride as venomous snakes that will poison your inner man and keep your light hidden or in darkness. (I attached notes with this and a picture).

Lastly and briefly Zechariah chapters 2&3 says, there is a prophetic lampstand now in Heaven whereby two witnesses are pouring out oil through pipes attached to the large bowls of oil. It is to rebuild the church on earth, a church without walls, a church with a wall of fire around it and fire in its midst. This oil, anointing, is purifying the priesthood and empowering the kings of the earth.  The heavens are opening to this church. We, the believers, are the kings and priests of the earth. (Rev.1:6) We are to finish the suffering and the work of Christ on the earth and build His kingdom, preparing the way of the Lord.  We are to speak double Grace to it as we build “Not by might, not by power but by My Spirit says the Lord.” There is so much more to these chapters….to be continued.                         Janee Hawks

There are three days in our history, His-Story, which completely defeated the revolt against God both in Heaven and Earth. These three days made the way to restore all creation back into its original harmony. These three days gave all mankind a way back to the glorious life in the Garden of Eden designed by our creator God. Every year we celebrate Good Friday and Resurrection Sunday. We tend to forget there was also a second day, Saturday, when our Lord became “the Champion” over the entire dark Kingdom. Jesus rendered the devil powerless and reversed the fall of all creation.

On Good FridayJesus knelt in the Garden of Gethsemane to pray. His soul suffered to the decree of sweating great drops of blood as He surrendered to His destiny. He saw the cross that the sins of the whole world would lay on Him and knew God would have to forsake Him for a moment of time. This day He died on the cross in the greatest suffering which was the greatest victory ever won. The sacrifice for all sin was made and the debt mankind owed was paid. God Himself, In Jesus, became man, laying His life down as the ultimate sacrifice for all people. Now whoever will believe and repent can become like God living forever with Him. What a great exchange.  He was condemned, we were forgiven; He was forsaken, we were accepted; His soul broken, our soul made whole. The final word Jesus spoke on the cross, “It is finished,“echoed with great power throughout all eternity!

Picture the cross with me; there hung the Word who was with God in the beginning, who was God, the creator, willingly paying the price for the sin debt of the revolt against Him. This was the greatest demonstration of His amazing love.  There on that cross sin died, and the fallen nature of every person who would believe died.  (Galatians 2:20)  Sickness, disease and the curse were conquered. Through faith in His shed blood the DNA of God was transfused to the believer. The Transformation to become like God was made possible and the believer was translated out of the dark orphanage of the devil into the Kingdom of light, the family of God. A great exchange was made, a translation happened, a transfusion was given, and a transformation was made possible for all mankind.  This began the process of the mystery of God to consummate heaven and earth as one in Christ Jesus. (Eph.1:10)  There is so much more!

Jesus looking at the joy that was set before Him, endured the cross, disregarding its shame and is now seated at the right hand of the throne of God. The joy He saw was all people who would believe, of every race, which would be His forever.  So let go of every sin that hinders you and run this race to win as though your life depended on it, because it does. Set your focus on Jesus who birthed His faith in you and will lead you into the finished work of that faith.                                                                   (Hebrews 12:1-3 Eph. 1; Ro.6, Gal.3:20) (Suggest reading Isaiah 53)

One of my favorite songs says it all; “AMAZING LOVE”

I’m forgiven; He was condemned; I’m accepted; He was forsaken.                                                       I’m alive and well, and His Spirit lives within me                                                                                 Because He died and rose again.                                                                                                                Amazing Love, how could it be, that you my King would die for me                                               Amazing Love, I know its true, and it’s my joy to honor you;                                                                         In all I do, I honor you.

TO BE CONTINUED:  Day Two: “The day the Champion conquered”    JANEE

As I spent time with the Lord one day about eternity I ask;  “JESUS, let me look into eternity. Let me know you, Jesus ,in the scope of eternity. I want to live with access to the past present and future in my spirit man.”  Holy Spirit give your understanding and revelation.

 “And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent” Jesus in John 17:3

 “For thus says the High and Lofty One Who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy: “I dwell in the high and holy place, With him who has a contrite and humble spirit, To revive the spirit of the humble, And to revive the heart of the contrite ones. Isaiah 57:15

 Act 15: 18 “Known to God from eternity are all His works

Why does Holy Spirit write in I Corinthians 14:1 Pursue love, and desire spiritual gifts but especially that you many prophesy. And in 14:39 desire earnestly that to prophesy. I believe it is because the realm of prophecy is the eternal realm of past, present and future all of which are eternally present to God. Our spirit man can access this eternal realm with God through various forms of the realms of prophecy. An excellent example in the scriptures is Moses on the mountain in the cleft of the rock asking out of a heart of love and surrender to see God’s glory. I believe Moses was able to access this eternal realm when he met Jesus on the mountain of transfiguration. You could say that Moses went back to the future and saw Christ the hope of glory.

Time is just a gift to us now before we fully enter eternity. Time is like a fast moving train that runs through eternity. We get on this time train when we are born and we get off it when we die bodily, in the natural state. Death is just separation from one place to another. To die in the gift of time is just to separate from this natural world. Enoch jumped the time train into eternity without dying because of how he walked with God. Wow! Selah!

We each had our beginning in the Father God’s heart where we existed as eternal spirits. The Father’s love sent us into time when He knit us into our mothers womb. Every person is born with an eternal purpose to accomplish during their time on the earth. Time is a gift, a chance to shine in our purpose.  Time is a chance to be a partaker of eternal life with God. It is a choice every person must make. We should live every day of our lives with an eternal perspective. Eternity is in us!

” He has made everything beautiful in its time. He also has planted eternity in men’s hearts and minds [a divinely implanted sense of a purpose working through the ages which nothing under the sun but God alone can satisfy], yet so that men cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end.” From Amplified Version: Ecclesiastes 3:10-15

Suffering for Christ body on earth

 Colossians 1:24 [Even] now I rejoice in the midst of my sufferings on your behalf. And in my own person I am making up whatever is still lacking and remains to be completed [on our part] of Christ’s afflictions, for the sake of His body, which is the church. AMV

What is Holy Spirit saying here through Paul the apostle?

                                Colossians 1:24-27 (NKJV)

 I now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up in my flesh what is lacking in the afflictions of Christ, for the sake of His body, which is the church, of which I became a minister according to the stewardship from God which was given to me for you, to fulfill the word of God, the mystery which has been hidden from ages and from generations, but now has been revealed to His saints. To them God willed to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles: which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.

 The message to the church in these verses is this; as believers, our hope of the fulfillment of being completely in His glory presence is having Christ fully alive in us. It is to grow up into the full stature of Christ. However, that will require the sacrifice of suffering what is still left of Christ’s sufferings. God has left us a part of Christ’s sufferings to fulfill in order for us to be completely filled with His glory presence. We must complete the sufferings of Christ that God has ordained for the purpose of the whole body of Christ to come to full maturity. It is our stewardship to fulfill the word of God especially for ministers gifted to mature the church, but also to all as ambassadors of the good news. The call is to all in different ways and levels. Jesus said to God the Father; “You have given me a body to do your will, I am the offering, once for all.” It is still His body on the earth that must do His will, which includes fulfilling the completion of Christ sufferings. Christ fully mature within us is our glory, The sufferings we willingly endure for the sake of a mature empowered church and to advance the Kingdom of God will grace our lives with such an increase of anointing and resurrection power.

I Peter 4:1-2 Therefore, since Christ suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same mind, for he who has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin, that he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh for the lusts of men, but for the will of God.

So Father in Jesus Name let us come before you willing to suffer to do your will for the sake Your Glory in Christ ‘s body on the earth. We are encouraged and thankful that there will be much increased favor and grace on our life.  All we do we do out of love for you Jesus.                                                                    Janee
