“Bless the LORD, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word. [21] Bless ye the LORD, all ye his hosts; ye ministers of his, that do his pleasure. [22] Bless the Lord, all his works in all places of his dominion: bless the Lord, O my soul.” (Psa. 103:20-22). From the verses above, the heavens are arranged in a descending order, verses 20 and 21 being the first and second heavens respectively. These heavens do not refer to a geographical location but to the inhabitants of that habitat. “O my soul” is the realm of a living soul; it is a heaven beneath the heaven of the angels. This was where God placed the first man – Adam. Just like the angels, he was not born but was created with a heavenly age (stature). John the Baptist was also a kind of “O my soul”, but it was Jesus (the last Adam) that could attain the Adamic stature and fulfill the original intent of God. As such, Satan was always angry at the men who were of this Adamic order.
“And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, after his image; and called his name Seth …” (Gen. 5:3). The men in the book of Genesis all waited decades before they begat. God delayed birth in that time so that He could raise children who would bring pleasure to Him. This was why Adam had to live for one hundred and thirty (130) years before he begat a son in His own image. If they had given birth quickly, God would not have finished working on them. No man can nurture another man until he has become what God would make him. The Lord had to first raise them for the image of an Adam to be properly formed in them; this was what Satan was warring against.
Genesis is the account of Adams and the patriarchs. These men were not just ordinary fathers, they were some kinds of sons of God. These men in Genesis 5 had a testimony — a hidden law — that cannot be comprehended by a normal man. One needs to know the laws of scriptures to know the testimony they bore. Before Enoch was translated, he had the testimony that he pleased God (Heb. 11:5). He had a revelation of the life of faith from the spoken voice of the blood of Abel. This was because Abel's lifestyle generated a kind of faith life (Heb. 11:4). His blood was speaking of a faith life that latched unto his generations, and it became stronger as men began to call upon the name of the Lord.
“But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels, [23] To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect, [24] And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel.” (Heb. 12:22-24)). As against the misconception that the blood of Abel was crying for vengeance, His blood was actually speaking something wonderful. Although the blood of Abel spoke of a faith life, this blood of sprinkling speaks something better. The blood of Jesus (the blood of sprinkling) is speaking from heaven (Heb. 12:25), while the blood of Abel was speaking from the earth (Gen. 4:10).
“And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them, [2] That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose. [3] And the Lord said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.” (Gen 6:1-3). These sons of God were not angels, but men. The Spirit of God did not permit them to marry the daughters of men, but these sons of God went ahead to do so. These daughters of men were a kind of dark lady-prophets; they had the wisdom of cohabiting with spiritual men. They could give a kind of pleasure that hindered the sons of God journeying to God. In the scriptures, a daughter refers to one who has been nurtured by a father; she is the manifestation of a female son.
Those who are responsible for housing God are His sons. When we have a lot of God's sons on the earth, Satan’s reign would be cut short; this is why he is afraid of the sons of God. He gave the sons of God who were alive at the time of the book of Genesis something that dispossessed them of their inheritance in the heavens — he produced daughters in the name of marriage. But that marriage was not an ordinary one because it was the kind that would divorce man from God's purpose and make them settle for an earthly life. Satan took time to raise these evil daughters, such that they carried a negative home (rest, Eden, pleasure, and dream) to lure those men. Satan can be very deliberate and determined, therefore, we have to be careful.
Satan was not of our heaven but of a higher firmament. He ruled in the second heaven and was a covering for seraphims, but God dislodged him from the heavens. He then found a place in the air, due to man’s disobedience and took it. He took that realm along with the spirits that fell with him. Thus, some spirits are in the air. Whatever we see on the earth is influenced by the spirits who provide the wisdom of the rule of that kingdom. How these evil spirits keep men subjected to them is by their conversations or courses. So when we are being taught deliverance out of such courses, we are being yanked off their grip.
The course of this world is tied to a conversation. Every nation has courses that are controlled by a prince. It is possible for people (believers inclusive) to be blessed naturally, and yet, this course would not be tampered with in their souls. This is why a true minister of the New Testament is saddled with the responsibility of helping people break free from the course of this world. Courses are also known as paths and they are embedded within the world’s systems. A powerful church is one that stops courses from operating in the lives of men. As men are being delivered from the courses of this world and to begin to follow the course of God, those wicked spirits would no longer have anyone worshipping them. Consequently, they would fall.
Satan and his angels are still in the air because of our disobedience. We allow him to retain his position in the air by remaining entangled with the work he gave us to do — disobedience (Eph 2:2). Disobedience is the name of a course. Course means path and path means way. A way/path is the strength of a prince (a high evil spirit). Walking a path can be likened to being tied to a loin or girdle. Therefore, when a man walks through the path of these wicked spirits, he is bound to them through his mind.
“Bless the LORD, O my soul. O LORD my God, thou art very great; thou art clothed with honor and majesty. [2] Who coverest thyself with light as with a garment: who stretchest out the heavens like a curtain: [3] Who layeth the beams of his chambers in the waters: who maketh the clouds his chariot: who walketh upon the wings of the wind: [4] Who maketh his angels spirits; his ministers a flaming fire…” (Psa. 104:1-4). In Psalm 103:20-22, His angels are the first dimension of heaven (the first heaven), followed by ministers of His (the second heaven) and works in all places of His dominion (the third heaven) and lastly, ‘O my soul’ (the living soul realm). However, in Psalm 104, ‘O my soul’ began the list of the strata. A soul that can x-ray God is not an ordinary soul.
“Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him. But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.” (Heb. 10:38-39). ‘My soul’ refers to a saved soul, which is the soul of God or the soul of salvation, or an everlasting soul. In the New Testament, a restored or saved soul is 'O my soul'. A soul that can come into this state is a soul that has the laws of God (Heb. 8:10). However, there is still a higher soul than this. It is called “Mine soul”, which is the eternal soul.
“And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly: yea, he did fly upon the wings of the wind.” (Psa. 18:10). These winds and their wings are not particularly angels; they are cherubims. They are not messengers but are kind of cherubs who are attached to the throne. They are higher than the angels. Their spirit is not in them but in the wheel of the throne. Another word for these winds is creatures or beasts.
“Who layeth the beams of his chambers in the waters: who maketh the clouds his chariot: who walketh upon the wings of the wind…” (Psa. 104:3). This therefore means that the clouds and the cherubs are one. However, the clouds are a higher state of a cherubim. Even the angels are not complete cherubims; the living creatures are the complete ones. The end of the cherubims is that they should become beasts who are sold to the throne; they no longer have a will of their own but are controlled by the throne. God is not riding on entities that are robots or toys; they are beings who have submitted their will completely. They are farther in the realm of commitment than the ones who hearken (Psa. 103:20). These ones do not hearken before they act. Before God says it, they move. They are under the throne and move with it. That is how the Bride of Christ is supposed to be with the Bridegroom.
The sons of the morning and the wings of the winds are of two different realms. The wings of the wind (the cherubims) constitute the head, while the sons of the morning are a manifestation of the eternal power in that dimension.
In Psalm 104:3, we see the revelation of God’s fatherhood, in touching the realm of creation. God is typified as the Father, who Israel calls Yahweh. The word “Yahweh” means Father, the trainer, the adopter of children. The Father is the revelation of God who works and His work is resurrection, for He raises through the doctrine of resurrection. His work is not creating heaven and the earth, for this is only a shadow work. The real work is the raising of sons for Himself. On the other hand, the work of Satan is to produce a son of the wicked one like Cain (1 John 3:12).
“Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be removed for ever. [6] Thou coveredst it with the deep as with a garment: the waters stood above the mountains.” (Psa. 104:5-6). Water is actually a boundary to keep creation from touching anything else. Immediately God laid the foundations of the earth, He covered it with the deep because He did not want any spirit here on earth. If the earth was not covered, Satan would have taken it over when he fell. That the waters stood above the mountain means that the height of the water is a distance that cannot be reached.
However, the realm of the cloud is different. The cloud is the last economy of water; it is an inferior economy of the water. The cloud was not God’s initial intention. It was in Genesis 6 (after nearly 2,000 years) that we began to hear of rain. The rain was not God’s initial plan. He sent rivers to water the ground and the water (river) encompassed different places across the earth. Before the rain came, the mist and rivers accomplished their duties on the earth, watering it. But after the fall, rain set in.
The wings of the cherub is their doctrine (Psa. 104:3). It is a great privilege for the cherubs to carry God and this is how God is able to stay in heaven. He is humbling Himself to behold heaven. These creatures are doing a lot for creation: they are helping us have God in creation. They kept God above with creation until Christ showed up.
There is a heaven that is higher than the present heaven. New heavens are not necessarily plains; they are abodes and are a world in the Father which God gave a man. Heavens are blessings in God. God calibrated the blessing in Him as heavenly places. The blessings of heaven are to make you holy and without blame before Him in love. The word “Heaven” is from the root word “heave” which means to raise higher or be exalted. When God is saying “I have blessed you with all spiritual blessings” (Eph. 1:3), He means that He has lifted you higher than the earth.
“Who layeth the beams of his chambers in the waters: who maketh the clouds his chariot: who walketh upon the wings of the wind…” (Psa. 104:3). These waters are higher than the heavens; they are not ordinary waters, for they are the glass of God. This water takes its appropriate place in the realm of God. When one travels through the water, it is to resolve the voice of the water. This water creates the boundary between creation and our Father. As we learn the water, we learn everlasting life. God found a man who can preach this water in Jesus Christ, therefore, He was ministering the water. He carried the waters in full to His chambers. That chamber is the pillar of fullness which the waters measure up to. When you finish the course of the water course, you have finished the course of everlasting life. This was where Jesus got to and said, “I have finished the work” (John 17:4).
“Who coverest thyself with light as with a garment: who stretchest out the heavens like a curtain…” (Psa. 104:2). These heavens that are stretched out are of two realms. They are not created but are above the waters. The heavens mark a division between Eternal Life and everlasting life. You cannot break into eternity without the heavens. If you want to get to God, you must pass through those heavens. Heavens are curtains (veils); they are the flesh Jesus wore.
“Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus, [20] By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh…” (Heb. 10:19-20). If Jesus is seen right now, His flesh might look like our body but it is not; there is a power that has worked on Him. Jesus said “eat My flesh” (John 6:53). When a man is not eating it, he will not enter into the heavens. But when we have ‘eaten the waters’, we would overcome the dragon. After a man has overcome, he would be given a linen, white and clean, which shows that he is a warrior.
“And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.” (Rev. 19:8). The man-child had done the commandment, warred with the dragon and moved into his mother’s womb to eat. While he was in the womb, he was eating heavens — the child was feeding on veils. When the child came out of the womb, he was caught up to God and to His Throne. Our Lord’s flesh is heavens, not the present heaven but the heavens in God. This is the heavens that the Godhead wants to construct us with. This is also why Jesus' body is a quickening spirit.
Satan is also a covering, but with false heavens. Jesus’ flesh is one that can house God. There is something about the body or flesh of Jesus; it is the curtain/veil of the present heavens. You cannot get to God without passing through it. Jesus' flesh is given through teachings. A priest should eat the flesh of Jesus for the veil to be opened for access, and nothing must remain. A man should not eat Jesus halfway and leave Him. Do not eat His flesh and run away, otherwise, you would be cut off and will die spiritually (Lev. 10:12).
When we do what we hear, we are eating. When we eat the flesh of Jesus, we would be lifted up into the realm of the Eternal God. The next thing we would then be learning is how to look at the Eternal God — to learn how to wear the garment He is wearing. God is raising glorious people. Therefore, we must eat this flesh, even when we are struggling. The food is meant to deal with our nighttime which is our limitation or death
Blessings!
Transcript Summary
1. The men in the book of Genesis all waited decades before they begat sons. God delayed birth at that time so that He could use them to raise children who would bring pleasure to Him (Gen. 5:3). The Lord had to first raise them, for the image of an Adam to be properly formed in them. No man can nurture another man until he has become what God wants to make him into.
2. Those who are responsible for housing God are His sons. When there are a lot of sons of God on earth, Satan’s reign would be cut short. This is why he is afraid of the sons of God. He fought the ones in Genesis 6 through marriage, the essence of which was to divorce them from God's purpose and make them settle for an earthly life
3. Satan and the angels that fell with him are the spirits that constitute the air (the heavens of man - Eph. 2:2). They influence the things that happen on earth by their wisdom and keep men in subjection through their conversations and the courses of this world. However, we can be yanked off their grip through teachings.
4. Satan and his angels are still in the air because of our disobedience. We allow him to retain his position in the air by remaining entangled with the work he gave us to do — disobedience (Eph. 2:2). When a man walks through the path of these wicked spirits, he is bound to them through his mind.
5. God rides on the wings of the wind. This is made possible by high cherubs who have submitted their will completely to Him (Psa. 104:3). This is how the Bride of Christ (the Church) is supposed to be with the Bridegroom.
6. The Father is the revelation of God who works and His work is resurrection. He raises sons for himself, through the doctrine of resurrection. On the other hand however, the work of Satan is to produce a son of the wicked one, like Cain (1 John 3:12).
7. Heavens are blessings in God; He calibrated the blessing in Himself as heavenly places. The blessings of heaven are to make you holy and be without blame before Him in love (Eph. 1:4). Therefore, when God is saying “I have blessed you with all spiritual blessings” (Eph. 1:3), He means that He has lifted/raised you higher than the earth.
8. You cannot break into eternity or get to God without the heavens. We enter into the heavens by eating Jesus’ flesh, which is the heaven in God, not the present heaven (John 6:53). It is the heaven that the Godhead wants to construct us with, for it is this flesh that can house God.
9 The body or flesh of Jesus is the curtain/veil of the present heavens. You cannot get to God without passing through it. This flesh is given to us through teachings.
10. When we do what we hear, we are eating in the realm of the spirit. When we eat the flesh of Jesus, we would be lifted up into the realm of the Eternal God. God is raising glorious people, therefore, we must eat this flesh, even when it may not be convenient. This is because this food is meant to deal with our nighttime — which is our limitation or death.
