DAY 17 (MIDNIGHT TEACHINGS) 2019 BATTLE FOR THE CROWN – THE MYSTERY OF COUNTERFEIT FAITH (2 TIMOTHY 3:8)

15763. EVERLASTING FATHER, WE THANK YOU ON THIS 17TH DAY OF THE BATTLE FOR THE CROWN 👑 2019. TEACH US IN SPEECH BY DAY, AND IN REVELATIONS (PSALM 19:2) BY NIGHT, IN THE NAME OF JESUS

15764. CHOICE BETWEEN NARROW-PATH CHRISTIANITY vs. SOCIAL MEDIA CHRISTIANITY!

MATTHEW 7 :13-14 (NLT):

13. “You can enter God’s Kingdom ONLY through THE NARROW GATE. The highway to hell is broad, and its gate is wide for the many who choose that way.

14. But THE GATEWAY TO LIFE IS VERY NARROW AND THE ROAD is DIFFICULT, and only a FEW EVER FIND IT.

15765. ON A DAY LIKE THIS WHEN WE CELEBRATE THE PASSING TO GLORY OF FIERY EVANGELIST AND APOSTLE OF FIRE 🔥 EVANGELISM, REINHARD BONNKE, WE MUST REVISIT A MESSAGE OF CONSECRATION WHICH TODAY’S CARNAL AND INCONTINENT CHRISTIANS HATE WITH A PASSION.

15766. THE MYSTERY OF COUNTERFEIT FAITH (2 TIMOTHY 3:8)

THERE IS ONE SIMPLE ARITHMETIC OF CONSECRATION WE MUST KNOW THAT LEADS TO THE THRONE OF GOD IN HEAVEN.

THAT FORMULA SAYS: “But without faith it is impossible to PLEASE him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.” (HEBREWS 11:6)

GOD HAS FEELINGS. HE CREATED US IN HIS OWN IMAGE AND HIS VERY LIKENESS. IF GOD HAS FEELINGS, THAT’S THE REASON WHY WE HIS CREATURES ALSO HAVE FEELINGS.

PLEASURE IS A FEELING OF HAPPY SATISFACTION AND ENJOYMENT. YOUR FAITH GIVES PLEASURES TO GOD. WITHOUT IT, YOU CAN NEVER PLEASE HIM (HEBREWS 11:6)

THE ARITHMETIC OF CONSECRATION MAKES A DILIGENTLY OBEDIENT CHRISTIAN OUT OF YOU.

THE ARITHMETIC OF CONSECRATION MAKES YOU TO PAY THE PRICE FOR THE NARROW PATH.

THE ARITHMETIC OF CONSECRATION MAKES YOU READY TO PAY ANY PRICE TO PLEASE GOD

THE ARITHMETIC OF CONSECRATION KNOCKS OUT WORLDLINESS FROM YOUR LIFE AND GIVES YOU THE BINOCULAR THAT MAKES HEAVEN TO BE SO CLOSE AND OUR WORLDLY ENVIRONMENT AROUND US TO BE SO DISTANT AND FARAWAY

15767. CONSECRATION MEANS SHEDDING CARNAL WEIGHT AND INCREASING SPIRITUAL WEIGHT.

THAT GATE IS SO NARROW (MATTHEW 7:13) THAT IT WILL NOT ADMIT ANY FATNESS OF CARNALITY IN OUR LIVES.

LISTEN TO ME. IF YOU DON’T UNDERSTAND HOW NARROW THAT GATE IS, RABBONI EXPLAINED FURTHER THAT BEFORE YOU GET TO THAT NARROW GATE, YOU WILL FIRST WALK THROUGH A VERY DIFFICULT ROAD!

FINALLY HE DELIVERED THE VERDICT, HE SAID ONLY A FEW PEOPLE WILL FIND IT (MATTHEW 7:14)

EVERY WAKING DAY, I MEDITATE WITH DEEP THOUGHTS 💭 ABOUT LIFE AND WHY THE BANDWAGON WILL NEVER MAKE HEAVEN. SO, I CONSCIOUSLY CHOOSE THE NARROW, SACRIFICIAL PATH IN EVERY DESTINY DECISIONS SACRIFICING THE IMMEDIATE PLEASURES OF NOW AND SELFISH DESIRES OF THE FLESH, AND POPULAR TRENDS IN PREFERENCE, FOR THE NARROW AND LONELY ROAD.

I KNOW PEOPLE WHO ARE ANGRY THAT WE ARE FASTING FOR 40-DAYS. IT IS TOO DIFFICULT FOR THEM TO SACRIFICE BREAKFAST FOR 40 DAYS.

LET ME TELL YOU THE TRUTH WHICH YOU’RE AVOIDING TO ADDRESS. ONCE YOU SKIP THAT BREAKFAST 🥣 AND EAT IN THE AFTERNOON. YOU LOSE APPÉTITE FOR THE REST OF THE DAY. THERE ARE MANY DAYS WHEN AFTER BREAKING WITH FRUITS, I DON’T HAVE APPÉTITE FOR ANY FOOD AGAIN. THERE’S JUST NO TIME AND NO SPACE TO SIT DOWN TO THINK EVEN ABOUT FOOD WHEN YOU’RE ALREADY LOST IN HEAVEN😭.

IT’S A STRANGE BUT DIFFICULT 40-DAYS JOURNEY. YOU CAN’T BE TRULY ON THIS JOURNEY AND EAT WITH 10 FINGERS STUFFING YOUR MOUTH AND BELLY WITH JUNKS IN THE NAME OF EATING. MANY DAYS ARE 1-MEAL OR NO-MEAL DAYS FOR ME, EVEN THOUGH I HAVE PRIVILEDGE TO EAT TWICE BEFORE NIGHTFALL, BUT A SECOND MEAL BECOMES DIFFICULT TO SWALLOW AND PASS THROUGH THIS MOUTH BECAUSE, I’M ALREADY LOST IN HEAVEN, THEY DON’T EAT THESE PHYSICAL FOODS WE EAT HERE IN HEAVEN … 😭😭😭 PLEASE, HELP ME HOLY SPIRIT TO COMMUNICATE THE ARITHMETIC OF CONSECRATION TO THY CHILDREN…

AS SOON AS THE 40-DAY MARATHON FAST WAS DECLARED, I LOST APPÉTITE FOR FOOD. THE YEAR IS ENDING, SO I BEGAN TO EMPTY OUT EVERY INDULGENCES OF THE FLESH. THE NARROW GATE WON’T ACCOMMODATE THE FATNESS OF CARNALITY. BY THE TIME YOU SEE ME IN DUBAI CROSSOVER ON 31ST, YOU WILL UNDERSTAND WHY I HAVE SHED CARNAL WEIGHTS TO GAIN SPIRITUAL WEIGHTS 🏋 !

15768. LISTEN TO ME. FASTING IS ABSTINENCE! EVEN WHEN YOU CALLED IT PARTIAL FASTING, YOU CAN’T HAVE PARTIAL ABSTINENCE! 😭

ONCE YOU BEGIN TO ABSTAIN FROM FOOD, YOU CAN’T SUSTAIN IT ON A PARTIAL BASIS. IT WILL SOON ESCALATE INTO FULL ABSTINENCE. YES, AT THE BEGINNING, A LITTLE FRUIT HERE, A LITTLE FOOD HERE, A LITTLE DRINK THERE, THEN… GBAM!💥

IT DAWNS ON YOU. WHY AM I FASTING? IS IT A RELIGIOUS RITUAL OR EARNESTLY SEEKING THE FACE OF GOD IN THIS 40-DAY SEASON? CAN I SEEK HIS FACE PARTIALLY? CAN I SEE HIS FACE IF I’M NOT LOST IN HIM? IF I’M NOT FULLY IMMERSED IN HIM?

BEFORE YOU SAY JACK ROBBINSON, YOUR SPIRITMAN TAKES OVER THE DRIVING SEAT 💺 AND STEERING WHEEL OF YOUR WHOLE LIFE, AND YOU BEGIN TO WITHDRAW FROM THE FLESH. YOU BEGIN TO WITHDRAW FROM FOOD. YOU BEGIN TO SKIP HEAVY MEALS, EVEN THE LIGHT MEALS BECOME INTERMITTENT AND LESSER AND LESSER ATTRACTED. YOU WANT TO MAKE THIS END-OF-YEAR BATTLE COUNT SO YOU DON’T FAST IN VAIN! THE HOLY SPIRIT BEGIN TO ENGAGE YOUR TIME AND TEACH YOU DEEP THINGS ABOUT THE VANITY OF MR. FLESH.

IF YOU TRULY SIT AT THE FEET OF RABBONI, YOU WILL BECOME LIKE MARY WHO LOST INTEREST IN FOOD AND PREPARING IT. WHEN MARTHA WAS SHOCKED 😲 AND COMPLAINED TO RABBONI, SHE RECEIVED A GREATER SHOCK OF HER LIFE WHEN RABBONI REPLIED WITH EMPHASIS SHOUTING HER NAME TWICE! “… Martha, Martha, you are worried and troubled about many things. But ONE THING IS NEEDED, and Mary has chosen that good part, which will not be taken away from her.” (LUKE 10:41-42)

MAY YOU FIND THAT “ONE THING” THAT WILL TURN AROUND YOUR DESTINY FOR GOOD, IN THIS SEASON, IN THE NAME OF JESUS

THE REALM OF “ANOTHER FOOD” (JOHN 4:31-34)

31. In the meantime His disciples urged Him, saying, “Rabbi, eat.”

32. But He said to them, “I have food to eat of which you do not know.”

33. Therefore the disciples said to one another, “Has anyone brought Him anything to eat?”

34. Jesus said to them, “My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me, and to finish His work”

MAY THAT OTHER FOOD LOCATE YOUR LIFE IN THIS SEASON, IN JESUS MIGHTY NAME

IT’S TIME TO KILL EVERY WORRIES THAT FOLLOWED YOU INTO THIS 40-DAY BATTLE. IF YOU DON’T KILL THEM, THEY WILL STOP YOU FROM BASKING IN THE PALACE OF RULERSHIP, AND PREVENT YOU FROM WEARING THE CROWN 👑 AS A KING OVER 2019.

RABBONI SAID IT’S ALL A MATTER OF CHOICE, MARY ABSTAINED FROM FOOD AND RABBONI SAID HER BREAKTHROUGHS WILL NOT BE TAKEN AWAY FROM HER BY ANY ARMY OF CARNALITY WHICH MARTHA WAS INCITING.
