Honoring Words Until We Become Them
(5 minutes)
"Everything you get from the Kingdom of God comes in seed form. Your part is, will you honor it when it looks like it's worthless? Will you honor it when it looks like it's small? Will you honor something that can do nothing for you in the moment? Will you value it when it can produce nothing for you in the moment? Everything from the Kingdom comes in seed form, and a lot of times we waste the seeds that come from the King because it doesn't look like we want it to look. It's not full-grown. It's not what we asked for. So this is why we're going to review. We believe everything that we're sharing and teaching is from the Kingdom of God and is due honor. That's why we stay with these things. We want to be people who hear a word, receive a word, and become the word. " (Pastor Tim)
We have to hold on to the words we're hearing from Abba. We have to treat them properly and treasure them until we see that word fully mature in us. Are you holding on to the words that Abba is speaking to you?
Our Kingdom family is treasuring Isaiah 61 right now, because we can see Abba's process of healing and wholeness in it. This is the process He has us all in right now.
The mighty Spirit of the Lord Yahweh is wrapped around me because Yahweh has anointed me, as a messenger to preach good news to the poor. He sent me to heal the wounds of the brokenhearted, to tell captives, "You are free," and to tell prisoners, "Be free from your darkness." I am sent to announce a new season (eon) of Yahweh's grace and a time of God's recompense on his enemies, to comfort all who are in sorrow, to strengthen those crushed by despair who mourn in Zion -- to give them a beautiful bouquet in the place of ashes, the oil of bliss instead of tears, and the mantle of joyous praise instead of the spirit of heaviness.
Because of this, they (you, me, us) will be known as Mighty Oaks of Righteousness, planted by Yahweh as a living display of his glory. They will restore ruins from long ago and rebuild what was long devastated. They will renew ruined cities and desolations of past generations. (Isaiah 61:1-4)
Can you see Abba's process of healing and wholeness? This is where we are! We've heard the gospel, but we're not stopping there. We're allowing Abba to heal the wounds of our broken hearts, so we can experience the true freedom of the Kingdom. We're on our way to becoming Mighty Oaks of Righteousness, planted by Yahweh Himself. We're moving towards being beloved, fully alive witnesses in the earth. A people who can shift the direction of an entire city just by being planted there. People who are changing generations with the Kingdom solutions they are carrying. We're letting hope rise inside of us.
As you walk with Abba today, allow Him to take you deeper into the words that you are hearing from Him. You've heard Him whisper your name in certain truths. Take those to Him today and ask Him to take you deeper. Abba, help us descend into these words and honor them until we become them! Ruined cities are waiting on fully alive, beloved sons and daughters to have enough hope to see things changed. It starts right here, with us honoring the Kingdom seeds that we're holding in our hands.
