Part 40 of: The Water of the Word of God

Hello unto all on this 2nd day of the 7th month of the 2017th year, which makes this day that we’re speaking of the first day of the week; and as we get back into the topic of the food for thought which is: The Water of the Word of God; we left off in the 28th chapter of the book of Acts. Before moving forward we of the leadership team of Grace Message Church ministries must inform some of you that, if this is your first time joining us in these episodes; you missed quite a bit. For we are on the 40th chapter today, the other 39 chapters are posted on Grace M Church Facebook page, by they being posted there you’re able to read and study them at anytime; that is if you desire the knowledge of God from a higher level, seeing that God Himself demands us saints of the Most High God from the 7th verse of the 4th chapter of the book of Proverbs: through studying His Word “as teaches the 15th verse of the 2nd chapter of the Second book of Timothy” that being skilful or wit in the knowledge of God is the first in place thing: that’s why the temptation in the garden was as if it was to make one wise “as states the 6th verse of the 3rd chapter of the book of Genesis.” Now by us getting this Godly wisdom through studying His Word, that would equip us saints of not being ignorant of Satan’s mind games the Bible calls devices “in the 11th verse of the 2nd chapter of the Second book of Corinthians.” This is why the book of Proverbs informs us: wisdom is the principal thing; therefore procure wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding which is knowledge; so these knowledgeable epistles are for your benefit. In diving back into the lesson, as we are able to remember that Paul was being used by God as shewbread on the island called Melita: in case some of you may not understand what is shewbread. Shewbread is the twelve fresh hot smelling good loaves that was placed upon the table every seven days. This table in which we are speaking of in which the shewbread was upon, it was stationed in the sanctuary part of the Tabernacle in which Moses pitched in the wilderness and that table was made of shittim wood and overlaid with pure gold. This pure gold in which was overlaying the shittim wood in which the table was made of, this piece of instrument was stationed in the sanctuary part known as the holy place BKA the down payment, being a symbolic picture of the wilderness and known as the earnest “pledge” of our inheritance as is shown in the 14th verse of the 1st chapter of the book of Ephesus with these words: which is the earnest of our inheritance “BKA possession” until the redemption “or deliverance and salvation” of the purchased possession, unto the praise of His glory. Yes this earnest of the Spirit is what we saints are sealed with right now, as is stated in the 22nd verse of the 1st chapter of the Second book of Corinthians with these words: who hath also stamped “or certified” us saints, and given us the pledge “earnest” of the Spirit in our hearts. So the ONLY PERSON IN WHICH MAKES US SAINTS, is the down payment of the Spirit of God that is given us; being a saint is not an act or deeds; being a saint is having the Spirit of God as the Comforter in a person’s life, so regardless of the adultery act of David and the killing of Uriah being Bathsheba’s husband, nevertheless by David having the Holy Ghost, he was a saint of God in the eyes of God regardless of what people said, for God still testified after all of this that David was a man after His own heart, Selah! In saying that, God still kept all His promises that He promised David even with the same vessel that most people found fault with David with and that vessel was Bathsheba; what we mean by this is David’s heir was Solomon the son of Bathsheba which was the wife of Uriah. In turning our attention back to the table in which the shewbread was upon being made out of shittim wood, this shittim wood is a symbolic picture of humanity receiving the Spirit of God as on the day of Pentecost. With most saints of today being lazy and unlearnt which makes them ignorant of the hidden mysteries in the Water of the Word of God “even as there are mysteries in the depths of the waters of the sea, and to allow those mysteries to be discovered; a person must dive into the deep: Yhowshua said it this way: launch out into the deep, and once out there, there is where you must let down your nets for a “haul” or draught. Here’s a Bible mystery in which the Holy Spirit is permitting us to uncover; gold in the Bible is symbolic of the Divinity of God; and by the gold overlaying the shittim wood of the table in which the shewbread laid, is a picture symbolic of the Holy Ghost overlaying or coming upon us as was the case with Paul. This shewbread being in the sanctuary drew the attention of the priest when he walked into that earnest realm, for the shewbread being hot and smelling good would draw anyone’s attention; and this is the position in which Paul was in, for all the barbarous people were watching and waiting for Paul to drop dead from the fastened death lock grip of the venomous beast which came out of the heat; isn’t it strange when it gets hot something even negative in the eyes of people shows up? But the down payment of the Holy Ghost “BKA the overlaid gold” which was upon the “shittim wood” body of Paul’s He prevented the viper from overcoming Paul, Selah!!! In Paul overcoming “or subduing” the viper; as God commanded first Adam to do in the 28th verse of the 1st chapter of the book of Genesis. For we are able to see that God instructed mankind to subdue and have dominion over the fish of the sea “so the sea could not kill Paul” and over the fowls of the are “so the boisterous winds could not kill Paul” and to subdue every living thing that moves upon the earth “so the viper could not kill Paul” because his mission was not over, seeing that the angel of the Lord promised that he must stand before Caesar Augustus in Rome and the island of Melita was not Rome. The promises of God are what most saints forget when an attack from the enemy shows up and by them forgetting it throws them into a hissy fit when they are suppose to stay calm and shake things off. These things in which did not destroy Paul in the sight of those onlookers “BKA as wishers of harm upon a saint” which makes them very barbarous people “and these types of people are in the congregations of God today, every time the doors are open seeing that the Bible teaches the love of many saints will wax cold, it did not say they were going to stop coming to synagogue but it reveals they are going to bring their cold attitudes with them. But do not worry and don’t be discouraged, it’s just your turn to be shewbread in their presence and to allow them to see, no matter how you’re watching and waiting for an anointed saint of God to swell up or be inflamed with a fever and fall dead; the gold of God’s presence is overlaying our shittim wood of a body. That’s when the same onlookers, after waiting for a while for disaster to come upon you and demolish you, but God spoiled their desires, then they began to eye you differently. That’s when we see one who was a chief man on the island, his character and authority being popular “as reveals the Greek number 4196 from the Strong’s Concordance of the Bible” nevertheless he was yet common “as states the Hitchcock’s Bible names dictionary” he received those from off of the Alexandria’s vehicle for three days with a friendly mind “in which the 7th verse of the 28th chapter of the book of Acts uses the word courteously” the great significance of Publius receiving Paul and his company, especially after the great demonstration with the viper, with the broken vehicle in which was destroyed, and even with the conditions of the sea in which they all made it through, it had to be something special in this group. Please do not miss this, the enemy is always trying to destroy the support system of the congregation, which would leave the congregation vulnerable and without hope; but there must be a trying first of the congregation’s faith, and this is done by an attack upon the person in which God will be using, this attack will be dangerous and may even hurt a while or a bit. Notwithstanding, this person is able to shake it off, because he has been through much worse; this is one of the reasons why the Bible speaks from the 6th verse of the 3rd chapter of the First book of Timothy against a young inexperienced convert “BKA a novice” being placed in an elevated position for a novice ALWAYS becomes lifted up in pride. Pride is “an inexperienced person being high minded of themselves and an inexperienced person could have been in position for a long time as was the case with Nebuchadnezzar” and they will fall into the call into question “BKA condemnation” of the “slanderer” known as the devil. As Publius was truly showing hospitality or giving a glass of water unto a righteous man; he was about to receive a righteous man’s reward; for the 8th verse of the 28th chapter of the same book of Acts reveals that Publius’ father was constrained with a fever, and if that wasn’t bad enough, his father’s stool had blood in it and it was very painful when a bowel movement came about, which caused him to have to make a bowel movement but to stop the pain most people would try to hold it, can you just imagine that? This is where Paul’s noticeable shewbread begins to thrive at its best in that earnest realm, seeing that he passed the test on himself first. Most novices which like to play grown up among the saints, they not understanding, you will be tested to see if what you’re speaking will stand the test of time; but most fail and turn back as Lot’s wife did; while departing. So shewbread being very noticeable by the acts through Paul and Paul even being the shittim wood in which was overlaid with gold being the Spirit of God, He took into where Publius’ father laid, and laid his, that exact same hand of a ministry on Publius’ father and after Paul prayed and the man was immediately healed. This is one of the reasons why the viper tried to intimidate with venom that hand of Paul’s ministry which was about to be used in bringing deliverance upon a barbarous isolated people. When the shewbread display was done, others joined the healing section and brought their diseased and they were healed; please do not forget; these things were done in the presence of all of the other prisoners who were travelling with Paul, and in the presence of Julius the centurion and his soldiers, and even in the presence of the owner of the vehicle and the shipmates and the helmsmen. These things were mentioned to give you some sort of idea of the meaning of shewbread and how God would cause you to stand out, out of everyone around. Some situations would seem good and some situations would seem bad in the eyes of the beholders, but not in the eyes of God. Here is where we would stop, for enough has been said to make you go hmm, we will speak with you later!!! Remember this; we of the leadership team of Grace Message Church Ministries love you, even if you do not love us, sayonara!!!
