Message begins..

Our excitement in this season isn’t carnal. There is no need to be excited if we are not being made perfect, if we are not experiencing deliverance and if sin is still remaining in us. We rejoice because we know that it’s God’s intention that the program of sin ends in our lives. If we are not excited about this, then there is a problem. The desire for every soul being saved is total freedom from sin because it is the ordination of truth that sin will not have dominion over us. The season of grace is the season to topple the dominion of sin, and not to use grace as an occasion for lasciviousness. Grace is meant to be used to undo the works of sin in us; and when the Lord brings us into a season like this, a healthy soul should be excited about the possibility of being delivered from sin from its root.

Sin is a wisdom, it’s also a mystery. It’s not something we can easily discover. It can adapt to light and use it to kill a soul that isn’t careful. For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it slew me (Rom. 7:11). Sin knows how to use good things to kill. We will be spiritually ignorant to think that we are free from sin simply because we believe. Indeed, that we are morally upright doesn’t mean we are totally free from sin.

(Luke 16:15) – “And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God.” – Sin is mysterious. In its highest pedigree, it can easily be commended by men rather than condemned. This means that, whatever men exalts and have high regard for, on earth is abominable to God. What man esteems is vanity and corruptible! The journey of our faith isn’t for us to be morally upright, but to address sin in our souls. The Lord needs to upgrade our definition of sin. Sin isn’t just acts, it’s what makes us content with the difference that exists between ourselves and God. Sin is the variance we have with God, which we are at home with, and without us even knowing anything is wrong. Again, sin is what makes us vary, that makes us not see as God sees.

(Isa. 55:7-8) – “Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon. 8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.”

Sin is the reason we vary with God in our thoughts. The reason why we cannot think about our brother the way the Lord thinks, is because of sin. Our thoughts forge our acts, and ways. When someone commits fornication for example, those acts are first as a result of errors in thoughts before they manifest as actions. And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. (Gen. 6:5). Sin did a work that took our minds and thoughts away from God. This is also how Satan killed himself; by thoughts. He said in his heart (Isa. 14:13) he broke the bonds of truth.

Every creature of God is supposed to serve the truth of God and live within the circumference of God’s thought, but Satan jailbreaked and began to see life outside the thoughts of God, which he also sold to man. The first thing he told man was a lie outside of God’s truth (Gen. 3:1-6). We saw how Satan sowed thoughts of discord against God in the heart of Eve. We should strive to live within the confines of God’s thought. If we see sin as it truly is, we will crave for freedom!

Scripture says that every man has gone astray and has his own way (Isa. 53:6). The reason this happened is because man had corrupted the way of God upon the earth (Gen. 6:12). It was in our way that we found things that are vile, however it all began from men taking a corrupt way. Without doubt, our thoughts and ways are as far from the Lord, as from heaven is to the earth, and from the east is to the west.

We should aim to breach the distance between us and God. The distance that exists between our thoughts and God’s thought is the actual mileage of our sin. Men might not see this, in fact, we can think we are sincerely righteous and appear spiritual to men, but the host of heaven can see the variance and gaps that exist between man and God. This is scary, because a man can live and die, without knowing he is at variance with God. What makes us come near and bridge the gap between us and God is flesh and blood. This is what the ministry of the blood will work in us when we hear and believe it.

At the new birth, we did not believe in the blood. We only believed in His death, burial and resurrection. (Rom. 10:9) – “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved” – Nobody is taught about believing in the blood when we become born again. In times past, we used to plead the blood not knowing what it is meant for, just like the Israelites did in Egypt. When the Israelites put the blood on the door posts in Egypt, it did not take care of sin, or the nature of Egypt in them, it only made the angel of death pass over them. Even the mixed multitude that joined them partook of this privilege. It was until they came to the service of God in the wilderness, that the blood for atonement and remedy of their sins was given. The Lord never addressed their sins in Egypt. Indeed, we didn’t explore the power of the blood for the remission of sins when we were born again. The blood of Jesus is not for pleading on our carnal things like car, e.t.c, rather, the blood is to address the issue of sin. It is to change the nature of man and set him free.

We should hear the blood. We should eat the flesh and drink the blood. However, we cannot come into the provisions of the blood just like that, we have to arrive at a place first. We should be excited that God in His mercy, in this season is showing us the secret of closing up the gap that sin created between us and God. That we are born again doesn’t mean that the gap has been closed. Paul was telling believers not to walk anymore in the vanity of their minds. This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ye henceforth walk not as other Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind (Eph. 4:17).

The Lord is expecting us in this season to labour until we eat this meal. (Isa. 55:1-3, John 6:27, 55-58). Let’s labour to eat the flesh and drink the blood of the Son of God, because in it, is the secret of Everlasting life. This is a worthy cause for us to fast, pray and exert pressure on our souls until we attain. It is as we eat and drink of the everlastingness in the Son that we cover the gap between us and God, and become sinless. Freedom from sin is near! Hallelujah. Our approach to hearing the word of God should be better. We should hear the word of God now with a yearning, with a vehement desire, knowing it’s possible to be free from sin.

(Heb. 10:1-3) – “For the law having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect. 2 For then would they not have ceased to be offered? because the worshippers once purged should have had no more conscience of sins. 3 But in those sacrifices there is a remembrance again made of sins every year.”

Every good sacrifice should undo and take away sin. The real essence of the sacrifice is to bring perfection to those that come to Zion, and deliver a life free from sin. If we are not careful, Season of the Spirit can just be an event, a sacrifice that we undertake but leaves us without the perfection it should wrought in us.

Somewhere within ourselves, we still love sin. This is true because when the Lord brings certain demands for us to relinquish sin, we protest and drag our feet. Somewhere, there is still the love of sin, and the wages of unrighteousness. We saw Balaam how though he had a standing with God, yet he secretly had love for the wages of unrighteousness. This made him embark on cursing the people of God, and eventually, set a trap for them, despite God’s warning. We must fight and resist sin and our secret love for it. We must fight until we resist unto blood. The scripture admonished us to consider Jesus who endured the contradiction of sin, and resisted it unto the shedding of his blood (Heb. 12:1-4, 4:15)

We have hope in Jesus. Lets not be weary in our hearts and faint in the fight. Though true we all have our breaking points where Satan has mastery over us but we must resist unto blood all the time.

(Lev. 17:11) – “For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul” – Satan doesn’t want us to get to blood. The blood is where Satan hid the secret of sin; We should suffer long, be patient, and keep all the commandments of God unto blood. Many times we forbear a little but are not able to do so unto blood. Satan knows our sins will remain until we refuse to yield to it to the shedding of blood. We can think we are free from some infirmity, but when heaven puts pressure on us we give in and sin. Jesus was tried at every point, and yet He was without sin. He didn’t yield to sin. Hebrews 4:15 must become our testimony. The reason Jesus attained sinlessness when on earth was because He was taught perfection.

(Heb. 5:7-10) – “Who in the days of his flesh, when he had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that was able to save him from death, and was heard in that he feared; 8 Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered; 9 And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him; 10 Called of God an high priest after the order of Melchisedec.” – Our Lord Jesus learned obedience. He learnt it until He was perfected. Jesus was not born with perfection. He learnt it, mastered it, until He became someone sin cannot tempt. God wants to teach us the same thing Jesus learnt. Hallelujah! God took Jesus through a school of obedience where He learned. The Lord will waken our ears to hear (Isa. 50:4).

What makes us break under pressure is the same thing that makes us vary from God. However it is possible for us to be sinless!

(Heb. 12:3) We need to understand the great contradiction of sinners Jesus endured against Himself. He was the only one in the world in the midst of sinners, yet He obeyed God to perfection. In a world where everyone was unrighteous, where the whole world had gone astray, He warred against the voices of spirits, and wrestled with the hordes of hell everyday, that pushes thoughts that perfection is impossible. He fought! Our Lord Jesus was able to finish the course of perfection because God taught Him something, and by it, He warred through spirits, government, principalities, atmospheres, nations etc; and now He is seated on the right hand of the majesty on High. He did not faint in His mind. He arrived at perfection.

We are at an advantage learning perfection in a company striving together for the same mastery. In truth, we too can obey God to perfection. We should not be weary in our minds. The school of overcoming sin is a long one, it will take years. It’s weariness in our minds that causes us to tire in seeking perfection, and makes us desire other teachings in the Bible. However, there is only one thing the Bible talks about. Any teaching from the scripture that doesn’t witness our Eternal freedom is nothing! Sin doesn’t want us to believe that we can ever be free. There is grace to set at liberty, to lose us from the grip of sin, to judge disobedience in the house. We must trust God for mercy and for the opening of our ears again.

THE END.
