Ascension Day - Lest I forget . . .

Greetings ‘O Ye Little Flock’! Just a small nudge into your destiny.
ASCENSION DAY – A HOLY DAY
As we progress into God’s Divine Plan for His image-beings wherein was incorporated Jehovah-God’s GREAT REDEMPTIVE PLAN to allow man to be brought/bought back to Himself after the first Adam’s disobedience had brought death to ALL of mankind – many in the ecclesia are ‘seeing’ the facts/knowledge of GOD being progressively unveiled – and many in the WAY (Jesus) are rejecting pagan-worship, forms-of-godliness and ritualism. Moreover we are also regretting and confessing our errors of OMISSION.

Another forgotten milestone in God’s diary is that day – 40 days after the RESURRECTION! THE DAY CHRIST ASCENDED!

True worshippers all over the globe are beginning to chisel out the defilements that have so clouded the TRUTH of God’s acts of KINDNESS and His PLAN for His satellite-rule of creation through His Image-being: MAN and are becoming enlightened by the Holy Spirit of God (RUACH)– our anointing, our comfort ,our teacher!
The emerging ‘little flock’ ‘true worshippers’ are rejecting paganism, ritualism and idol-worship (Exodus 20:2-4 ‘ I am the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. Thou shalt have no other gods before me. Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. 5Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God!’) and are thirsting for truth. (Matthew 5:6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled) and are accurately following the Master and with sincerity are beginning to acknowledge Him through His acts, His WORD.

We have rejected EASTER (Pagan-worship to pagan-god) and are embracing, acknowledging and celebrating the PASSOVER of GOD (Torah) and the PASSION of CHRIST (Gospels). Amen.

The resurrection of Jesus (Jehovah saves) showed that Jesus was indeed the sign spoken of by Prophet Isaiah. It directed our attention to the promised CHRIST/ MESSIAH. Remember that in the day of Christ’s first advent the Jews rejected HIM as Messiah!

The ACENSION of the Christ also speaks to an equal significance of the authenticity of who JESUS is – ‘YESHUA HA’ MASHIACH’. It was prophesied also in the Holy Writ – Psalm 110 referred to in Mark 12:36 – THE LORD (Jehovah) crowns our Lord (JESUS) after His glorious and victorious conquest of sin, death and evil. He thus was crowned our KING-PRIEST after the order of Melchizedek. Forever and ever. Bless His Holy Name!

Acts 1: 9-11 And when he had said these things, as they were looking on, he was lifted up, and a cloud took him out of their sight. 10And while they were gazing into heaven as he went, behold, two men stood by them in white robes, 11and said, "Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into heaven? This Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, will come in the same way as you saw him go into heaven."

The Ascension of Christ also speaks to the COMING of the HOLY SPIRIT – 10 days after He ascended . . . on the DAY of PENTECOST – His INFILLING, His LIFEGIVING, His SEAL/GUARANTEE for completed REDEMPTION.

I kindly exhort all in the Kingdom by the mercies of GOD to take some moments on this auspicious day (2 June 2011) to PRAY in THANKSGIVING to Jehovah-GOD for JESUS our RISEN Lord and ASCENDED Saviour & King.

Gather in our halls, homes and workplaces – Kneel down and bow before God’s awesome Throne and Pray His WILL be done and His Kingdom come.

Remember the Jews did not know what we know now . . . that . . . JESUS CHRIST is MESSIAH! Moreover many amongst us still do not know who the CHRIST is.

May the scales fall from our eyes to see His Glory!
