The Making of Persons through the Ministration of the Blood

Tongues and Interpretation (1)

I am not just alpha,

I am omega,

And I will come to show the omega,

I will come to show that better by far is the end of a thing than the beginning,

For that is my ordination,

For that is the way I ordain blessing,

For where the Father is, the sealing comes, for where the Father is, the crowing comes

The sealing up of the work and the labour,

Even the blessing of the end,

The blessing of sealing,

The blessing of crowning,

For that is the jurisdiction of the Father;

For to bring a seal, to bring a crowning,

To command the blessing,

Even the angel of your Father is here again,

For to do the work of crowning and sealing,

To bring a summation to the good work that has been done,

To the good labour that has been extended,

To seal it all up, to crown it all up,

To bring the blessing of the Father,

For it’s a sure work,

To bring verity and fidelity upon the work,

Saith the Spirit.

Tongues and Interpretation (2)

I have known the end from the beginning thereof,

There is that which I knew,

There is that which I know,

I will bring that knowledge that I have known from the beginning,

For indeed, it’s in my heart the work that I desire to do,

It is in my heart the work that I am set to do,

And I will bring even the honor to undo, to break it open,

For I have been opening it,

But I will bring the full unsealing of that which I have in my heart,

For it’s in my glory to conceal a thing, and the honour of kings to search out this matter in my heart,

I bring that honour over my servant to undo the veil,

To make manifest again the things that I have prepared

I will bless with that knowledge that I know,

I will bless with that authority that I know,

I was prepared for this,

I made provision for this,

Indeed, I have supplied all that is required to undo the seal and open up the blessing,

I am commanding the blessing,

I give authority again to command the blessing, Amen.

Message begins..

(Heb. 13:20-21) — “Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.” — Apostle Paul, being a teacher, understood the issue of prayer. He didn’t just pray carelessly; he had to a great measure a priestly ministry. From his writings, you can tell he was not just a prophet, teacher or apostle. God will have everyone called into ministry to not just end in the fivefold, but every fivefold should aim at coming into the priestly operation.

The full ministry of the ministers of the New Testament is ministers who can write, not just talk and preach. To write, you must have been written upon to make you able minister of the New Testament, not just a preacher. To be an able minister of the New Testament, it means you have insight into the blood. Everything about the New Testament is in the blood (Luke 22:19-20). An able minister of the New Testament has access to what is in the blood. You can’t have access if you have not been written on because it’s the blood that is used to write on the heart.

An able minister of the New Testament is actually a priest (2 Cor. 3:6) – “who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life.” — The full proof of the calling of the fivefold ministry is not seen until they have entered into the priestly order. Even though one does not understand the mystery of the flesh, from the scriptures, from the Old Testament, it can be deduced that it is not just a preacher who will get the job done.

One needs to be able to minister the flesh and the blood because it is in the blood that we find the New Testament. We can’t be made perfect without the testament. (Heb. 7:11) – “If therefore perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the law,) what further need was there that another priest should rise after the order of Melchisedec, and not be called after the order of Aaron?”— Perfection could not be ministered after the order of Aaron. So in the New Testament, the Lord Jesus by His mercy, began the church with the fivefold ministry.

The apostolic order of the twelve apostles had bishoprick, also called lot or allocation, to it (Acts 1:20). It is in the priesthood we find lot/bishoprick. The 12 apostles came into the priesthood ministry. The Lord Jesus knew they had to confront the old order of priesthood, so He raised them beyond just the fivefold ministry. They also touched bishoprick, they had lots, so they had some priesthood touch to their ministry.

(Acts 19:20) — “So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed.” — It doesn’t just take a preacher for the word to grow; the word doesn’t grow because everyone is hearing it, it is because people are changing. People change when there is an operation of the priestly ministry. The priest doesn’t just preach, he deals with blood. He goes into things that are errors and infirmities in the blood. The blood referred to here is the life that man inherited that is running him. The priest begins to correct, unwrite, rewrite, and encode another law.

The Lord gave us privilege in the community of the word of righteousness in a measure to touch the priestly ministry, giving us sight to touch things in the blood (Heb. 5:4-5).

Priests have an installation of the spirit of the New Testament (Urim & Thummim) to minister light and perfection. It is only priests who would have the sight to see and know things that are in the blood of Jesus and the blood of the people. Jesus knew what was in man (John 2:24-23). Urim and Thummim: Light and perfection – these are the portions of the priest. With light, he can see and also give light, and with perfection, he can fully equip and strengthen to do the will (Heb. 13:20-21, 2 Cor. 3:6).

Apostle Paul prayed like a priest. He could decode what was in the blood and write it upon the church. His prayers were highly priestly. The prayer for the Hebrew church was different from that of the Ephesian church, and this is evident in the incense, which is the understanding and knowledge that Paul brought forth.

The incense – knowledge, understanding, and wisdom that he brought forth made up the incense that commanded the prayers that he prayed. He also prayed for them in chapter three, and this was also as a result of incense. Knowledge is incense, but before incense can be generated, one needs wisdom and understanding, which helps to gather the substances for the incense; this is how priests pray. If a priest has not given you knowledge and understanding, he can’t pray such a prayer. Also, if a priest gives you knowledge and you don’t receive it with wisdom and understanding, the priest can see it and not pray that prayer for you. Paul saw their faith in the Lord Jesus and love towards the saints, then he prayed for them.

These days, the church hardly prays New Testament prayers anymore. To a man who is not spiritual, these prayers are boring.

(Rev. 1:6) – “And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.” – The kingdom is priestly; it is a kingdom of priests. It is different from an earthly kingdom. There is no earthly kingdom that is priestly even though there are some earthly kingdoms that try to portray or tailor after it. The church ought to become a kingdom of heavenly priests because perfection is with the priesthood. Every one of us should run towards perfection. (Eph. 4:12) — “for the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:” — Perfection is with the priesthood. To perfect the saints is to bring them to the full measure of their priestly nature, not just priestly calling.

Kings after the real order of kingship are the sons of men. These are the kings God recognizes. Spirits and demons know when you are a king; they know sons of men (Acts 19:15). This is because sons of men know how to deal with the law of an opposite kingdom. This is also why Satan goes after the heads of prophets because they are kings. If you are not a king, you don’t have a head. Head in the spirit is rulership and kingship. These prophets know how to denote the law of the other kingdom (that is, the law of sin and death).

Earthly kings are servants of sin and death, so they are not kings. Prophets like Elijah and Samuel were prophets (2 Kings 2:12, 1 Sam. 15:27-28). Kings are prophets who have come into nature by their walk. Priests are also priests by walk. Samuel was not of the Levitical order, but he was a priest and prophet. So being a prophet, he was a king and a judge. David was also a prophet; he was of the Davidic order, a kingdom of priests.

(Eph. 1:3) — “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:” — There is something in Christ, and we need that thing in Christ before we can come into the Everlasting covenant. The Old Testament could only bring us to a height, but it could not take us to perfection, so we needed the New Testament. For example, the tree of life could not be eaten in Genesis, but it could be eaten in Revelation (Gen. 3:22, Rev. 2:7). Everything in the book of Revelation was all about perfection.

What enabled the apostles to pray the New Testament priestly prayers is the incense/knowledge they had. If you receive a priest with understanding, there is a fruit you should bear, and once they see the fruit, they can pray. Priestly prayer is a prayer to move to the next level. There is a journey to perfection; it is not something that will happen in a day (Heb. 6:1). We must keep going and journeying until we attain perfection. The church today is not interested in going unto perfection but in staying at a point of just receiving blessings from God. The Lord must raise intercessors who will pray and carry the burden of the nation prophetically, and not just pray for the belly.

Our problems were caused by a fallen priest. Satan has set up a system with different professions and definitions; he is the god of this world, a fallen cherub and priest. That is why there is no exit out of his kingdom except by being born again. Satan perfected the system, tightened and tied it to what we will eat, because he knows our whole life is dependent on it. The needs we are trying to meet on earth are needs created by a priest, and there is no way we can escape from the arrangement of that need without seeing something higher (John 3:3). Unless we are delivered from this, we will always hear the gospel and ask how it helps us. The fact that we are born again does not mean that we will see it.

Jesus can come to us, and we can reject the help He is bringing (John 3:19) – “And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.” – Light in the scripture above is to show them the way to walk out of darkness, but men loved darkness because of the work Satan had done in them.

Our real need is God. We are dealing with a fallen priest. He has filled our minds with thoughts of what to eat and how food will be put on our table. Our constant pursuit after what to eat further ties us to rather than disengage us from his kingdom. (Matt. 6:25) — “Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?” — Jesus, in the scripture above, was speaking as a priest. He wants to disengage us from a fallen priest; from a kingdom (Matt. 6:13).

Our heavenly Father knows our needs (Matt. 6:31-33) — “Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.”— Our Heavenly Father not only knows our needs, but He has already supplied them.

The first lesson we must learn is how to disengage from the kingdom of darkness, and it starts with our thoughts. Spirits hook and arrange men down through thoughts. They have wired men down through their thoughts. We must know that all of the rancor, anger, and disobedience we carry out are being recorded in our blood. We need to disobey God for Satan to work in us (Eph. 2:2), the same way we need to obey for God to work in us (Heb. 13:21).

Satan is skillful; he is a priest. He knows how to engage us, but let’s not make him waste our time. Our real need is God, but we can’t see this except that the eyes of our understanding be enlightened.

We should desire God to be with us the way He was with Jesus. (Acts 10:38) — “how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.”. There is nothing we call need that God has not already taken care of. We toil because we don’t believe that God has met our needs. We need to be at rest to see that our need is God and pursue Him. Believest thou this?

It is difficult to believe that God has met our needs because part of what we call needs for example clothes is also lust of the eyes, because we are not just desiring to cover ourselves, but want to glory in the kind of cloth it is. A vain man thinks about the worth of the kind of cloth he is putting on. Food is supposed to be a fuel that energizes us and keeps us going, but we want to glory in the kind of food we eat.

The devil opened our eyes to see something out of nothing so that our soul will keep on doing a work and be exercised in unrighteousness, and it gives him ground to work out disobedience, making us to become children of disobedience and consequently children of wrath (Eph. 2:2). Satan made us see what is not our need as our need.

(Heb. 13:20) — “Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant,” — It can only take the Great Shepherd of the sheep to lead us and deliver us into the hand of another shepherd. Every shepherd is a priest. God is a shepherd, so He is a priest. There is a shepherd who has led us astray and away from God. Our Lord Jesus, while He was here on earth, was the good shepherd (John 10:11,14), but He became great Shepherd or chief Shepherd or chief/high priest by being led and learning obedience. He was led by the Shepherd who dwells between the Cherubims (Psa. 80:1) – “Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, thou that leadest Joseph like a flock; Thou that dwellest between the cherubims, shine forth.” – Our heavenly Father led Jesus until He became the great/chief Shepherd. In leading, there was something He made Jesus do; He made Him do that which is well pleasing in His sight.

One can’t be a shepherd without being a sheep. A sheep is leadable. A sheep is a lamb growing who refuses to become a ram, because a sheep is leadable, unlike a ram, which is not. A ram is almost like a goat, but a sheep can be led. Our Lord Jesus was a sheep to the Father (Heb. 5:9) – “and being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him;” — Being led, God gave Him all the materials for perfection in His blood. That is where the New Testament is.

(Heb. 13:21) — “make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.” – To make you perfect is to equip and strengthen you. In that ‘every good work’ is for us to work out that which is well pleasing in His sight. Only God knows what is pleasing in His sight, but He will strengthen us to every good work.

At every level, there is that which is pleasing in His sight. At the level of milk, there is what is pleasing in His sight, and it is a kind of person; a person that He made because He is the one who worketh in us both to will and to do (Mark 1:11, John 6:29); that person is a personality that the Holy Ghost delivers to a believer. We see that in Stephen, he had the person of the Holy Ghost. Before we become that person, we must have done a work or done obedience (Rom. 8:1). (Eph. 2:2) If we became something by disobedience, we will also walk by obedience to become something in God.

Equipping us is to make us walk, and when we do, a work will be done in us. Walking is doing obedience, and when we obey God, we are being equipped and strengthened. There is no person in God that we can have without doing a corresponding obedience (Col. 1:10-11). We obey even when it is not palatable; with long suffering and endurance, but we do it with joyfulness because we understand that a person will be delivered to us. We can’t just claim the person of God. We have to obey something to become a person in Him.

At the level of milk, what is well pleasing in His sight is the person of the Holy Ghost. He is higher than the person He delivers in milk for He is Eternal, but there is a person He has to deliver because the Godhead are comforters. The Holyghost has His gift; when we get born again, He comes with gifts; gifts of persons, but for us to receive those gifts, we must have done obedience.

At the level of meat, the person of Christ will be delivered to us which is charity, but for charity to be delivered to us, we must have done charity, loved our brethren, shared our goods. Sometimes, we hold on to our goods because we think they will make us better, but we were given those goods to use to inherit their persons. We must see goods as things we must share to get something better – persons of God. To leave an inheritance for our children is to give them God; God is our inheritance.

Jesus, in the days of His flesh, grew into the persons of God. As He was growing, He was coming into the persons of God. What the minister of the blood of the new covenant does is to change nature. If He was killed at the age of 12, His blood was not yet enough to purge sins because the lamb that was to be killed for atonement had to reach a particular age. For our sakes, He became like us to show us how to find our way back to God (Heb. 4:15-16). He was being led by the Father to avoid pitfalls; He did not sin. As He was being led, He was charting a course. All of those leadings are obediences He learnt, and they were being recorded in His blood. What is trapped in His blood is what is summed up as the New Testament that has to be ministered to us.

God is working a person in us because He knows the person that is well pleasing in His sight (Heb. 13:21). When He worked in Jesus, He led Him to the cross and Jesus obeyed God even though He were a Son (Heb. 5:8) and by the time God was declaring Him, He didn’t declare Him before men but before Angels (Heb. 1:6). The New Testament is for us to change nature and deliver persons to us; from person to person to person until we become a perfect man unto the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ.

The person in milk has measures; the person in Christ also has measures. The person in the Father also has measures (1 John 2:14). God also has His own measure. We are not following cunningly devised fables; we are following a roadmap to God. There is something in God that we need, and we only have our lifetime to get it.

The blood contains a lot of things, and the reason for the blood is to change us from being the kind of person we are right now to the kind of person that God wants us to be.

THE END.
