The AWAKENING

It’s time for עוּר

Becausefor His Bride.

There is an awakening happening right now.

It begins with an individual’s personal spiritual experience in the presence of our Father.

People everywhere are looking for answers, seeking truth and thanks to Ruach HaKodesh/Holy Spirit they are finding it.

Awake, awake, put on your strength, O Zion; put on your beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city; Is 52:1

עוּרִ֥י awake

קִיץ (quts) — arise, be awake, watch strongs 6974 Phonetic Spelling: (koots)

Strong’s Hebrew: 5782. עוּר (ur) — to rouse oneself, awake

Awakenings are not new or unusual, they occur when people cry out to the Father. Believers sense something is happening and they want to know what it is and more importantly they want to get closer to Him.

In the last 2000 years there have been awakenings/revivals in nations all over the world.

Following the dark ages when the Bible was kept from the general public, Martin Luther had a personal apocalypse and an awakening followed.

There was the Welsh revival of 1904 with Evan Roberts,

the revivals of the 1700’s with

John and Charles Wesley

and

Jonathan Edwards.

History records those of the USA,

also called the first revival

and 

the second revival

Some quotes from previous awakenings

Modern society has forgotten the notable Saints who’s writings have been the solace and encouragement to thousands over the centuries.

Born of confinement often from prison cells, voices of godly men and women, such as Paul Bunyan in Bedford Jail for 12 years and Mme. Guyon in France, echo across the ages, scattering and putting to flight desolation and discouragement that so often assails the human heart. It’s grip tries to squeeze out the life of the spirit that sustains it. There are countless others and this list is ever expanding.

Many others in prison for their faith and testimony. It is the epitome of Grace in human flesh to allow the Ministry of Holy Spirit to flow through an imprisoned soul when all seems lost in captivity.

Mark 7:33 and he took him aside from the multitude.

Matthew 5: (KJV)
1 And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him:
2 And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,

Matthew 7:13 (KJV)
13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:

This new walk must show signs and changes in the heart, mind and soul.

But the gate is narrow and the way broad that leads to life because many people who have claimed to have passed through the gate, continue to walk in the broad way.

Matthew 7:13

Many people thrive in view of the multitudes and among the Saints at large, yet how would we respond to sudden confinement faced only with our own flesh?

In the silence of solitude comes the face to face encounter.

First with self and then with the Father. The disturbing realization that we really don’t know ourselves; and we certainly don’t know Him as we should. Only in the quiet place is what is with in us revealed and awakened.

A personal apocalypse!

And it is by His design. For we are accountable for our own life and there will be a reckoning.

Here is the place of awakening.

Once we’ve become a new creature/new birth, through Messiah Jesus/Yeshua, then and only then are we able to truly come to the Father and this communion is a supernatural one. It is a path of Light.

And when we awaken to The Word and The Light then we are to awaken others.

Sadly Christianity has become only about a gate. Ministers stand at the front and tell you that once you ‘walk down the isle’ that this is enough…but it’s more that the walk down the isle.

Asking Messiah Jesus/Yeshua into our hearts is only the first step.

Herein lies the gate.

The scriptures tell us that the only way a man/woman can walk through the gate is because the Father has to have made a supernatural change, and initiates a deep work in his/her life.

2 Corinthians 5: (KJV)

17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

The New birth experience, (Holy Spirit) with man reveals a manifestation, which is equal to Genesis 1, and John 1-the beginning of a new life and His Light enters our world.

This places us in quite the predicament. Because if you truly show the signs of a changed person, we must conform to the Word, not the worLd. Take the L out of your worLd and Life and leave the WORD in. The L’s of life have to go!

The List is in the Word in 2Timothy 3:1-5; Gal.5 :18-21. It’s the list of what people will be like in the last days and Mark 4 tells of the things that choke the Word of life. Love of other things Lusts/desires of the flesh. Looking back to Sodom. Longings, Lies, Loose morals, Loose living..etc

It is the ultimate goal of the pilgrim, the traveler through this realm,

For we are not of this world we are simply passing through.

It could be said that if you’re a believer, and life meets no resistance from the world, from the flesh, from the Devil…then you know you are on the broad path.

Is your life fraught with battles, fighting and conquering? Then, you know you’re on the right path.

This life is a battle. Jesus/Yeshua warns His followers that they will be persecuted because they are not of the world, but have been chosen out of the world, and therefore the world hates them just as it has hated Messiah Yeshua/Jesus (John 15:18-21). This is precisely why Messiah Yeshua/Jesus exhorts His would-be followers to first count the cost. For anyone who is unprepared or unwilling to bear a cross and follow Messiah Yeshua/Jesus, simply cannot be His disciple (Luke 14:25-33).

In choosing the right way we are to discern the state of our faith/heart. But don’t be confused we must not let the heart guide us, instead, we must guide the heart into submission to Him, to the Word – Jesus/Yeshua is the Word. For if we do not, even our hearts can lead us astray. Num. 15:40

The warnings are of a world where there are people who do not walk the walk, they talk the talk; however this is a completely different path.

There is one that leads to life.

Listen to Jesus’/Yeshua’s words:

“Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?”

He’s telling us that those who THINK they are doing right by Him are not!

Why is that?

Because they walk in the path of least resistance. They walk in the world, by the world, for the world. We need to have Conformity to the Word, NOT to the worLd! The L of the world and the world can certainly be L!

(It’s Not scripture, it’s also not wrong!)

In Truth we are spiritual beings

having a human experience –

We are NOT human beings having a spiritual experience.

There is a huge difference between those two statements.

 

There are Spiritual pursuits and earthly based ones.

To be enlightened or awakened does not mean that we are flawless or never make any mistakes or sin, it simply means that we are watching our own thoughts and reactions, aware that the Father above does the same over all His children.

Our awareness is heightened in that we are understanding the truth that as spiritual beings experiencing a human life, for most of the time we are within this physical form, we forget who we are.

It’s critical in this hour that we remember.

It’s essential criteria of the awakening.

The scripture tells us we are one with the Father.

If we could only grasp hold of this simple truth it would relieve our minds of the burdens of this life; they would simply melt away and our spirits would raise up and with it lift the soul and the emotions to a realm high up above, where we are supposed to be….. seated in heavenly places with Him.

We have earthly limitations.. however our hearts cry is echoed in this song as many of us question, how long ’til we awake in your likeness?

There is a part we can play, to prepare our hearts to reach for the higher realms of the Spirit of our Heavenly Father.

When we realized that like Nicodemus we must be born from above.

It is the very beginning of the awakening.

John 3:1-36; 11:11-14

After saying these things, he said to them, “Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I go to awaken him.” The disciples said to him, “Lord, if he has fallen asleep, he will recover.” Now Jesus had spoken of his death, but they thought that he meant taking rest in sleep. Then Jesus told them plainly, “Lazarus has died.

Like Lazarus we are revived from being dead in sin and awaken to the true life – dead to the world and alive in the Spirit, (Ruach), of a Holy, (Kadosh), Heavenly Father.

The quickening of His spirit.

Awake oh sleeper and arise from the dead, and Messiah will shine on you. Eph. 5:14

The awakening causes us to face the reality of eternal issues and our need both to acknowledge them and to do something about it.

The awakening of a sleeping soul means that, we must not become so locked into a false sense of security, (like the proverbial ostrich or the frog in the pan), until the time to wake up has come and gone.

The quickening of the spirit/ruach, to quicken our mortal bodies and make us alive in Him. Rom.8:11.

We need to awake to His truth, to His plan, awakening the one new man because

the plan of the father ultimately to REdeem those who have always been His. 

Jeremiah 1:5 Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations

RE = Second time examples like RE-view and RE-revived and RE-surrected. Re indicates a second occurrence from something that has happened previously.

Many individuals have sensed their destiny since childhood. A knowing that they were not like the mass majority. Never truly fitting in, although many attempts were made. Knowing there was something greater than the life most chose to live, which seem pointless and without a true or significant purpose.

Those ones are among the called, they are beginning to sense an awakening, a quickening, a change in the spirit, a shift in dimensions. A new alignment, a change from that which we are presently in, as the weight of eternity and His coming Glory presses from His realm into ours.

I have chosen you and I have called you. Is 43:1; John 15:16.

The balance of energies of the very Ruach/Spirit of Jesus/Yeshua is disturbing the waters and this time it’s not just the Pool of Siloam, בריכת השילוח‎ – the Breikhat Hashiloah. John 9:7

But the Waters of the very earth itself.

Once more I will shake the heavens and the earth. Hebrews 12:26 Haggai 2:6

Revive us again Lord Ps 85:6

The shaking has begun and those with sensitivity of hearing and discerning spiritual eyes, will perceive with joy, the coming changes that will ultimately bring the return of Messiah to our midst.

The sky will roll up as He returns to raise the sleeping Saints into resurrection life and then we too will be changed from mortality to immortality in the twinkling of an eye at the speed of light. (186000 miles per Second.)

For God is light.

1 John 1:5 – This is the message we have heard from Him and announce to you, that God is Light, and in Him there is no darkness at all.

He is a being of light and we are made in His image, therefore we too are beings of light.

Jesus/Yeshua said, while I am in the world I am the light of the world after I go you are to be the light of the world.

The light of His spirit in and through us is what keeps the darkness at bay. One match can cause the darkness and an entire room to dissipate. It flees from the light, from the Genesis / Begining / Bereshit /בראשית.

Be Light/Light Be

Light was the first word the Father spoke. Genesis 1:3

Light will never be quenched.

It is impossible.

It is of eternal quality and essence, of imperceivable and mysterious elements that we cannot describe or comprehend and yet it is within us. It’s what connects us to Him and to each other.

His life was the light of men John 1:4 it’s His word, it lights our path. Ps. 119:105

It is His power – the lightning’s of Sinai’s presence, the fire of His pillar, the glory of Transfiguration, we call it electricity. The hiding place of His power, Habakkuk 3:4

The glory of His manifested presence, the rhythm of life that keeps our heart beating, with electrical impulses which travel to our brain, they fire bursts of electrical energy between the neurons so we can think and function. We understand so very little, we have become dull of hearing and slow of life.

Are we settling for a spiritual pauper’s existence when the realms of light beckon? – Sometimes a shift in our position is what we need to give us a fresh perspective and it opens up possibilities we had not seen previously.

Awake oh sleeper and arise from the dead, and Messiah will shine on you. Eph. 5:14

Rise up seek His face.

Prepare the way of the Lord. Mark 1:3

It’s time to lift up the gates of our hearts for the Lord of Glory to come in. Ps.24:7

Awaken to His presence and be revived once more – leave behind the mundane, the ordinary, and become all He has called us to be.

Now is the time.

Today is the day of salvation in all of its fullness.

Draw close to Him and He will draw close to us. Seek Him while He can be found and immerse our souls in His light and be transformed by the renewing of our minds.

Allow His word to challenge and change us.

To be all that we are called to be –

the awakening is in motion.

The awakening is in progress.

Don’t miss our day of visitation.

The Resurrection changed EVERYTHING!

We are beings of His light, His glory.

It’s time to shine like never before as beings of that light.

Isaiah 60:1 Arise it’s time to Shine

The light is a metaphor for a number of concepts:

1. The 3rd Temple

2. Messiah

3. Torah 

4. The primordial light of Genesis creation, which they say Father withdrew from the world and will return it in the Messianic Era.

It’s a prophesy about the magnificent future for the kingdom is coming and the glory of the Messianic era will envelop Jerusalem and Isaiah refers to spiritual illumination.

It’s another way of saying…

Let’s shine, we are part of it.

Shalom!
