Becoming like Jesus part 2

Part Eight - Becoming like Jesus part 2 God is bringing forth a new seed in the earth, because it is His seed it will become like Him. He is bringing forth many sons in His image and likeness, as we simply follow the way of Jesus which is the way of love this transformation begins in our lives, it happens simply yet profoundly as by His grace we begin to change. If we have a desire to change and become more like Him and we begin to become love, the change will be automatic. Now that's not hard! As we lose our lives to express He who is love, rapid change will occur within us. Now, it is necessary to explain how this works so we can cooperate with God in this work of transformation. The Pharisees were the theologians when Jesus walked the earth in His flesh. They studied the law and were official authorities in interpreting the scriptures. With all of this learning they did not recognize who Jesus was. They were fastidious in keeping even the finest points of the law yet missed the real truth. Jesus said this about them. John 5:39 Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. 40 And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life. Many Christians know the word of God, but do not know Him, They do not know what He is like. Jesus was saying you study the scriptures but you do not come to Me that you may have life. Matthew 15:17 Do not ye yet understand, that whatsoever entereth in at the mouth goeth into the belly, and is cast out into the draught? 18 But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man. 19 For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies: 20 These are the things which defile a man: but to eat with unwashen hands defileth not a man. If we are to become like Jesus, we must know what He is like. We must know and understand how He transforms us. Jesus said it is that which comes out of us that defiles us Matthew 15:17 Do not ye yet understand, that whatsoever entereth in at the mouth goeth into the belly, and is cast out into the draught? 18 But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man. 19 For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies: 20 These are the things which defile a man: but to eat with unwashen hands defileth not a man. This is a profound statement, and gives us insight into the process of change within us for good or evil. Many years ago in the beginning of my ministry, the Lord opened my eyes to the spirit world. This lasted for weeks until I begged the Lord to shut it down. For weeks upon end my eyes were opened to the reality of the spirit by day and by night, I could not shut it off. Eventually the Lord much to my relief shut it down. During this period I began to understand some of the realities and relationships between the actions of human beings there affect in the spirit realm. We tend to talk about love and hate as abstract manifestations, just feelings, words, or desires etc. However this is not the case. Love is a power and has substance; hate is a power and has substance. All power is manifest as a vibration. This is more clearly seen in sound; sound is simply a vibration and has a wavelength which defines its various manifestations. When I use the word "power" It can be seen as a vibration. These vibrations or power can be beneficial or harmful to us. Angels have a much higher vibration than humans, and unless you are tuned into their vibration level they are invisible to us. The power of God that perfumes creative miracles of healing is a much higher vibration than the power that is used to heal conditions that do not require a creative miracle. Light and sound are vibration which operates within certain frequencies. You say, what has this to do with being transformed into the image of Jesus? Good question; well, It has everything to do with your transformation. Let me describe some of the things I saw and understood during the time in which my eyes were open to the spirit realm. Romans 14:7 For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself. As we walk though life we leave a trail behind us of good and evil, positive and negative effects. These trails or influences remain and often multiply. This is one of the most fundamental realities of life. Not only do we leave behind a trail, but we create our own heaven or hell. Proverbs 23:7 For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Every thought we have, emanates out from us as a power or vibration, this is also true in regard to the words we speak and the strong desires we have. I saw that every thought word, desire, or emotion such as love, Joy, anger, self-pity, or fear is manifest through us as a power which in turn is manifest in the spirit realm as a colour a sound, a smell, and often can be tasted. Your attitudes literally clothe you in light or darkness Self pity clothes you in a terrible dingy colour and smell which keeps you bound in that state, and it affects others around you. That power coming through you will affect your health and mental state. Your attitudes cloth you in light or darkness, we all are constantly emanating something. These emanations from you are a substance and have a profound affect on you. The seven spirits of the Lord around the throne of God are represented by colours they each emanate a different colour of the rainbow Rev Chapters 2 & 4. Fear is such a strong vibration or power it can be picked up by demonic powers from a great distance. Demonic power as well as angels can know what you are manifesting by the colour sound, smell, and taste which is flowing from you. A persons desires for good or evil manifest power a vibration passing though them. This light, colour, sound, smell, passing through you either defiles you or purifies you. Jesus said it is that which comes out of you that defiles you. Every negative, selfish, jealous, angry, unforgiving, or attitude of self pity, is manifest this way. These attitudes will prematurely age you, cause disease and generally cause decay on every level of your existence. On the other hand, every loving, kind, longsuffering attitude will do the opposite and bless you with abundant life. Look at Isaiah 61 Isaiah 61:2 To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn; 3 To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified. Note: the scripture here calls praise a garment. Something you cloth yourself with. Strongs Hebrew dictionary explains this as to cloth yourself with light and colour, to shine Garment 4594. ma'ateh, mah-at-eh'; from H5844; a vestment:--garment. Praise 8416. tehillah, teh-hil-law'; from H1984; laudation; spec. (concr.) a hymn:--praise. This come from the root halal 1984. halal, haw-lal'; a prim. root; to be clear (orig. of sound, but usually of color); to shine; glory, give [light], When you praise God from your heart you begin to emanate light, colour, and sound, this clothes you dispelling the darkness of heaviness (Depression) You are always manifesting or transmitting something. Whatever you are transmitting will either glorify you or destroy you. It's as simple as that. I saw people manifesting hate, this hate passed though them like a dark muddy cloud that enveloped them and spread out from them for many meters. Unbelief is manifest like a very dark colour that slowly destroys people opening their body to disease; it also affected the mind in a negative way. There is tremendous power in our thoughts, as we think we become. Each of us is on different spiritual level and maturity; this is manifest in the quality of light we emanate. This light with its variations shows up in what often is called our aura or what we are spiritual clothed with. The brighter the light the more spiritual advanced you are. This is easily recognizable in the spirit realm. Jealousy has the most depressing dark muddy green colour and has a terrible smell. When this passes through you it affects you physically and mentally, we have all heard the phrase "insane jealousy". For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts these are the thing that defile a man. See Mat15:19-20. When your mind and lips lose the power to hurt the light coming through you will be so brilliant and powerful it will transform you. When Moses came to the end of his like he had perfect health, perfect eye sight, perfect hearing and would have lived on if God had not taken him. Why was this? The scriptures tell us that he was the meekest man that had ever lived. The meekness, humility that he walked in so transformed him that his natural life did not diminish. The second reason for this was that he had spent so much time in the manifest presence and glory of God that it also transformed him. So the ball lies in our court, how are we going to live what are we manifesting? God Bless you Neville Johnson © 2004
