Topic: Blind Spots – Ministry of the Word of God
Greetings Sons of God:
In our previous message we left of with our principle of how
our blind spots are revealed is first by the Light of Men, the Holy
Spirit. Now let’s put some Scripture
with this as confirmation. Always
confirm anything with the Word of God, in proper context.
Isaiah 25:6,7: And in this mountain shall the Lord of hosts
make unto all people a feast of fat things, a feast of wines on the lees, of
fat things full of marrow of wines on the lees well refined. And He will
destroy in this mountain the face of the covering cast over all people, and the
veil that is spread over all nations.
First thing I want you to understand that it references a
particular place for us to go where He will destroy the face of the covering
casted over the people. Now we may ask,
where is this place?
Isaiah 2:2: And it shall come to pass in the last days, that
the mountain of the Lord’s House shall be established in the top of the
mountains and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto
it.
This prophetic scripture gives us the answer. We must go to the House of the Lord. In Scripture it is not talking about a
physical edifice but to the family of God.
In addition it says that the Lord will establish it. Now many of you may say well I am in the
Lord’s house as His child. Ok, but why
do so many believers still act carnal and fatherless? Notice the Scripture also states that ALL
nations shall flow unto it. It makes the
reference to the Family of God. This
mountain where the Lord’s house is being established is not a physical mountain
but it is the highest place or position in the earth. Mountains are pictures also of governmental
positions. So the House of God will be
established in the highest governmental position in the Earth. The Kingdom of God is the superior government
on earth and the only government that can established the true order ordained
by God. This is why the creation waits
for the manifestation of the Sons of God.
Because on our shoulders, we carry the government, the Kingdom of
God.
Now let me share this about the last portion of Isaiah 25. It says that He will destroy the face and the
veil that is covering and spread over all the people. Clearly a veil or covering is meant to
conceal or hide something. But the Scripture
says the Lord will destroy this veil and covering. So what is this veil or covering?
Isaiah 60:1,2: Arise,
shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon
thee. For behold, the darkness shall
cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the Lord shall arise upon
thee and his glory shall be seen upon thee.
The veil and the covering is darkness. Darkness is a picture of not only sin but
ignorance. Ignorance to the Lord of
Creation and His ways. Now notice
darkness hides and conceals so your blind spots are dark areas within you that
the enemy uses to attack you. Ignorance
(lack of knowledge) is a reason why the people of God are destroyed. But notice
when we receive the Light of Christ, the Spirit of God it says the Lord will
arise upon us and His glory shall be seen.
Now that sounds great but think about what that means. That means for the Lord to arise upon thee
and glory be seen, darkness must be expelled.
And this is where the ministry of Word comes to play and it is a
five-fold ministry. Five being the
number of grace. Let me show you the
five-fold ministry of the Word that reveals blind spots:
Hebrews 4:12: For the Word of God is quick and powerful and
sharper than any two-edged sword piercing even to the dividing asunder of the
soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the
thoughts and intents of the heart.
1. Quick – Life-Giving
2. Powerful –Enabling
3. Piercing – Offending
4. Dividing Asunder Soul and Spirit
(Your will vs. God’s Will)
5. Discerner
In the next message we will talk about the power of
correction in being healed from blind spots.
Peace and Grace,
