LEAVEN


 



LEAVEN:


1. a substance, typically yeast, that is used in dough to make it rise.

2. a pervasive influence that modifies something or transforms it for the better.

 

 

Lk 13:20-21 “The kingdom of God is like unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till the WHOLE was leavened”. (Kingdom of Heaven Mt 13:33)

 

 

The Kingdom of God IS all about RISING… RESURRECTION. 

 

 

It causes you to “have life… and THAT more abundantly.  ((Jn 10:10)

 

 

Out  of something that was dead and lifeless, as leaven it resurrects you to now WALK IN NEWNESS OF LIFE”. (Rom 6:4)

 

 

Yes, it is important that Christ died. 

 

 

However… it is supremely significant that He was also resurrected!

 

 

Even though He died AS YOU… IN YOUR PLACE…

 

 

He was also RESURRECTED… RAISED AS YOU… with you… in you… through you… you in Christ!

 

 

Colossians 2:12 “Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye ARE RISEN with him!”

 

 

HOW?

 

 

“through the faith OF the operation of God, who HATH RAISED him from the dead…

 

AND NOW YOU ARE SEATED WITH HIM…  “AT THE RIGHT HAND OF THE FATHER… Far above all principality, power,  might, and dominion, and every name that is named…”  (Eph 1:20-22)

 

 

 

Ephesians 2:5–6. Even when we were dead in sins, (HE) hath QUICKENED us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)  And hath RAISED us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:

 

 

Gal 5:9  “A little leaven LEAVENETH the whole lump”. (Also 1 Cor 5:6)

 

 

The Kingdom – rule, reign, authority, and dominion of God has permeated every cell of your body... and HAS RAISED YOU…

 

 

WHOLE!

 

 

 

Romans 8:11 “But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also QUICKEN YOUR MORTAL BODIES by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.”

 

 

The self-same Spirit who raised Christ from the dead resides in you… 

 

 

Raising, revitalizing, renewing,  restoring, and refreshing every fiber of your mortal body 

 

 

with HIS  powerful, resurrecting and sustaining blast/breath of abundant life. 

 

 

WHERE?

 

 

IN YOUR MORTAL BODIES

 

 

YOUR FLESH

 

 

NOW!

LET YOUR FRUIT SPEAK

Image
LET YOUR FRUIT SPEAK?     People say, , “God told me”…  or “Holy Spirit directed me…”or… “this business belongs to Jesus, He tells me what to do!”     WHY?     Why do they preface THEIR works with such statements?     Isn’t it a ruse of the enemy to keep them unapproachable, uncorrectable, and continuing their own way without interference? … ITS INTENT: prevent ANYONE from speaking into them or the situation… After all… “who are YOU to contradict what God has said?”     “Every tree is known by his own fruit.” (Lk6:44) “…by their fruits you shall know them.” (Mtt7:20)   An apple tree does not have to tell you it is one… it just bears apples! …a cherry tree bears cherries.    You can tell a Dogwood Tree by its “Bark”… well… maybe that doesn’t fit the analogy.     If I have to tell you I am a certain type of tree, it is probably because there is NO FRUIT to make identification easy.     “He that speak...

FORMING YOUR WORLD

  Forming Your World     Have you been in a place in life where you feel like your world has no form, reason, nor rationale to it… like it is void of meaning or direction… and it seems like the darkness is so deep and thick that you not only can't see, but are so disoriented you have no clue as to which way is up?     How do you get out of THAT?     Gen1:1-2 describes just that scenario, but on a grand universal scale: “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep.”     The rest of verse 2 begins to show the hope in the midst of the vast void…                   “…And the Spirit of God MOVED UPON the face of the waters.”             “MOVED UPON” is from a primitive Hebrew root word meaning: to brood: to hover, flutte...

CONVICTION

Image
  CONVICTION   I have frequently heard the phrase, “the Holy Spirit CONVICTED me”… or… “I was CONVICTED by the Lord”.  As a young boy I was taught that God was this big eye in the sky continually watching to see if I was being good… and the Holy Spirit, being on my shoulder, would  speak in my ear to bring that guilt… shaming me back to the right path.the moment I stepped out of line   But… why did Jesus send the Holy Spirit to us?     In  Jn16:7 Christ calls the Holy Spirit “ THE COMFORTER ”. He uses the term, “ parakletos ”, which was used in NT times of an  attorney (lawyer)… someone  giving evidence that stands up in court .   It comes from two words: “ para ” (close-beside), and “ kaleo ” (make a call). The word properly means: a legal advocate, advisor, or alongside helper who makes the right judgment- call  because  close  enough to the situation.       Zech3 clearly portrays a courtroom drama u...
