ENTER AND ENCOUNTER GOD'S GLORY

Presence or Glory Consciousness (Holy of Holies)

As we move deeper into the Tabernacle, our consciousness of God increases. We will be more conscious of God’s purity, power and presence. The glory of God will be increased. The Holy of Holies speaks of our spirit – that part of our being which is God conscious. This is the place or realm that we speak of "Glory Consciousness". So from Sin consciousness we move into Grace and Righteous consciousness and into the last realm of Glory consciousness.

The consciousness of God and His presence will permeate us in our lives as we spent time fellow-shipping with God in the Holy of Holies. This is knowing the Father from the beginning.

In First John 2:12 says, "I write to you little children because your sins are forgiven you for His name's sake. (Outer Court) And verse 13. I write to you fathers, because you have known Him from the beginning. (Holy of Holies realm) I write to you young men, (Holy Place realm) because you are strong and the Word of God abides in you and you have overcome the wicked one." Yes, from little children to young men to fathers.

If we want to live a godly life, we must be more conscious of God and chose to live and walk in the realm of the Holy of Holies. When we are more conscious of God’s Presence, power and glory, our faith level will increase and it will be easier for us to believe for miracles. This is the dimension that God wants us to move in our spirit in these last days.  From Glory to Glory things will be changing.

When we enter into the Holy of Holies, we receive 30 fold, 60 fold  and a 100 fold blessings. (Outer court, Holy place and Holy of Holies) Without exception our lives will be fruitful – producing the hundredfold. These are the ones who has passed from the Outer Court and gone beyond the Holy Place and enter into the riches of His glory and blessings. There is an increased spiritual fruitfulness and productivity. This is where we called the realm of multiplication- “Peace and Grace be multiply to you” We are able to touch multitudes like Jesus in our ministry.
Then we go from the good, the better and the Best.

In I Corinthians 12:31 says “But earnestly desire the best….” We want the best. God’s best blessings, richest anointing and powerful presence in our lives. So the Best of the best is in the Holy of Holies where God Almighty dwells. Now Jesus the High Priest of the New Covenant has opened the way for us to personally enter into the Holy of Holies.

In Numbers 18:12 says “All the best of the oil, all the best of the new wine and the grain of their firstfruits which they offer to the Lord, I have given them to you.” All the best blessings are found in the Holy of Holies where the Glory of God dwells – the Ark of the Covenant. The life that we live with grace, beauty, purpose and power in the Spirit.  We can easily hear the voice of God here.

Each of the three areas of the Tabernacle was illuminated by different kinds of light. The Outer Court shines by the natural light from the sun, moon and stars. The light of the Holy Place was the Golden Lampstand. But the Holy of Holies was lit up by glory and from the Shekinah Glory – from God Himself. Out of the three the Shekinah Glory was the brightest that blinded Apostle Paul’s eyes when he saw the glory of Christ. When Stephen died he saw the glory of God as the people were stoning him. He felt no pain.

God says “Let there be light” Psalms 36:9 says, “In Your light we see light.” 

When we see His light, we see things in the light of eternity. You will see everything for a purpose and His Perfect will for your life. In the Outer Court you see “His Permissive Will”, in the Holy Place we see “His Acceptable Will” but in the Holy of Holies we see “His Perfect Will”. And to stop at the Holy place is to stop short of His Perfect will into His ultimate glory realm. From grace to glory and from glory to glory!

For Roman 12:2 says, “Don’t become like the people of this world. Instead, change the way you think. Then you will always be able to determine what God really wants – what is good, pleasing and acceptable, and perfect will of God.”

May the Grace and Glory of God be in you!

Song: We enter the Holy of Holies …. We enter by the blood of the Lamb…

ENTERING AND ENCOUNTERING THE PRESENCE OF GOD

The articles in the Holy Place has three things there. The Lampstand, Table of Showbread and Altar of Incense. These speaks to me about Grace and the Light of Jesus. We press into the realm of Grace. When we are in this place we will be more Grace Conscious, Righteous and Word Conscious. Both the Holy Place and Holy of Holies were made mainly of gold. Gold speaks of purity and the glory of God.

A)     Righteous Consciousness Realm (Holy Place)  (Grace Consciousness Realm)
This is where you are reigning over sin and the enemy.

What is Righteousness?

 2 Corinthians 5:21 & Romans 10:1-3

10:1  “ Brothers and sisters, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for the Israelites is that they may be saved. 2 For I can testify about them that they are zealous for God, but their zeal is not based on knowledge. 3 Since they did not know the righteousness of God and sought to establish their own, they did not submit to God’s righteousness.”

Definition of Righteousness
- Right standing with God
- The ability to stand in the Presence of the Father without any sense of fear, guilt, shame or inferiority   - To stand in the Presence of the Father as if sin never has existed.

The Christian religion has been very proficient in teaching people that they are sinners. Over the years this has developed a sin consciousness in God's people. What religion has not taught us is the reality of righteousness. Those who have not experienced God's righteousness know they are sinful and do not know how to rid themselves of it. It is one thing to know the righteousness of God and another thing to submit to the righteousness of God. To submit to God righteousness is to flow with it and receive it.

When we receive the revelation and realization of redemption and righteousness it releases us from a consciousness of guilt. Once you lose your sin consciousness you will find yourself free from all of the bondage of sin.

2 Corinthians 5:21 - New International Version

“God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.”   

 "The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much." - James 5:16

 We overcame them by the Word and blood.  

Revelation 12:11  -  King James Version (KJV)

¹¹ And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death. 

THE CONSCIOUSNESS OF GOD;S GLORY

When we look into the Old Testament Tabernacle every article has meaning and many spiritual lessons and revelation of Jesus type. All the 3 compartments of the Tabernacle of Moses taught us to move from our self consciousness to God consciousness. The first two are the Outer court and the Holy Place.

The articles in the Outer Court of the Tabernacle we have the brazen altar and the brazen laver where the animal sacrifices were made and the washing of sins. God wants us to move on to the Holy Place and into the Holy of Holies. The Outer Court speaks of judgment upon sin and there is a constant reminder of sins. The believer who dwells in this realm will not able to go forward far in their spiritual lives because they will be constantly burden with guilt and caught by being sin consciousness or self consciousness.

A)     Sin Consciousness Realm or Self Consciousness

The opposite, of course, of a righteousness conscience is a sin-consciousness. The state of being where you feel separated from God. You do not sense your oneness with God, but you are very aware of your sin. You are very aware of your lack. You are very aware of your inability to do that which you want to do. Sin-consciousness is that state where you could want with all your heart to please God, and yet you find within your members that sin-consciousness, the sense of being separated, the sense of failure, the sense of fear. "Oh I would love to be able to pray in a meeting, but I feel so inferior." That is sin consciousness, and that will rob from you and steal from you everything that God wants you to have.     Sin-consciousness destroys faith.

Sin consciousness makes us feel unworthy. How many Christians ever come to a meeting, and feel worthy to have the joy of God come upon them and flow from within them? Very few Christians ever meet together on Sunday morning, or any other time, with a sense of worthiness. It’s always a sense of unworthiness. "I’ve failed God so miserably. I’ve missed God so many times this week, and I have a sense of unworthiness." So when we come together, there is no real joy. There is no real expression. There is no real release of the spirit. There is just a sense of unworthiness. Sin-consciousness is the biggest enemy that the church of the living God has today.

Sin-consciousness makes your prayers ineffectual. The scripture says, "The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much." But if you do not have that consciousness, if you do not know that you are a righteous man, if you have the sense of unworthiness and weakness and failure, your prayers will not avail much. God only answers the prayer that is prayed with the consciousness of His righteousness.  So COME OUT OF SIN CONSCIOUSNESS!  The Answer!

Hebrew 10:1,2 -  Christ's Sacrifice Once for All
1 For the Law, since it has only a shadow of the good things to come and not the very form of things, can  never, by the same sacrifices which they offer continually year by year, make perfect those who draw near. 2 Otherwise, would they not have ceased to be offered, because the worshipers, having once been cleansed, would no longer have had consciousness of sins? 3 But in those sacrifices there is a reminder of sins year by year.…

Hebrews 10:11, 12  - Day after day every priest stands and performs his religious duties; again and again he offers the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins. 12 But when this priest (Jesus) had offered for all time one sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God,

Heb. 10:17, 18  Then he adds: “Their sins and lawless acts  I will remember no more.”^c

18  And where these have been forgiven, sacrifice for sin is no longer necessary. 

God will no longer conscious of our sins – why we are so conscious of our sins.  (Children)- Youth
