Tongues and interpretation 1
I am that light, that light of the beginning, even that light that was with God from the beginning. I am the light of all things; I am all things and I have come to give direction. I am here to help. I am here to smile on scriptures, even to birth directions that you might see that which I am saying.

Cherub! Cherub with a blessing, Cherub with a will. I sent to you matters of the will, even the will at the right hand. I sent you matters of that will. Cherub!
Tongues and interpretation 3
Home, home! Low, low! It is he who is low, even he who is meek that can find the way back home. I am bringing things of home, even things of my home. I am bringing judgments of home, even things of my home that you may find your way back home. I am bringing the place of rest; for you cannot overcome the adversary without the incense of home, without the light of my home. Come meek, come low, come home, come to rest.

It is good for us to be used to the spirit because there are many evil spirits out there. But after some time, we would have learned how to put our spirit under, that is, manage the activities of the spirit properly (1 Corinthians 14:32).
It is not an easy realm for women to attain the status of everlasting submission by calling their husband Lord. Their husbands should ask themselves if they are worthy to carry that title of Lord. A man should never get bitter with his wife; the man ought to also submit to the Lord. Men should grow up from being boys.
1 Peter 3:20-21 KJV
Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water. The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ:
The scripture above speaks of a church that has moved from Christ into everlasting life. They have come into enduring substances; from the power of God, which is faith, they have gotten into the realm of salvation. The day of Noah does not depict rapture, but the ark predicted salvation. The program of salvation is not meant to take men away completely from the earth. We will still be on earth but we will be saved by water. The water is God's water; it is the rain of everlasting life.
The knowledge of the glory of the Lord will cover the earth as the waters cover the sea (Habakkuk 2:14). The waters will fill up the sea; so this message of everlasting life will fill the earth, and those who have been called into everlasting life will rise above the water. They will rise by reason of obedience to the instructions of how to be saved by the water. The same water that drowned some people will raise others. Inability to survive the water is death. Something is coming that will sink men, and will raise others. As the day of Noah, so shall the coming of the Son of man be.
Revelations 1:17-18 KJV
And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last: I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.
Jesus would not have been able to access the keys of hell and death without being dead. This key is the last key of the Kingdom. Jesus said to Peter, I will give you the keys of the Kingdom (Matthew 16:19). This particular key of hell and death is the last of the keys. Jesus never collected any key from Satan. In the kingdom of heaven, there are three keys. But in these keys, there are several keys. The keys are according to the dominion of heaven; in the kingdom of heaven, there are kingdoms. The order of the kingdom is typified in Hebrews 7:1-3.
Hebrews 7:1-2 KJV
For this Melchisedec, king of Salem, priest of the most high God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings, and blessed him; To whom also Abraham gave a tenth part of all; first being by interpretation King of righteousness, and after that also King of Salem, which is, King of peace;
Slaughtering kings is relative and also a type of the present-day warfare for dominion. There is no dominion a man will enter without slaughtering kings. You must kill a king to enter dominion, for a king killer is a king. Abraham slaughtered kings, then a king (Melchizedek) came, who has three major crowns. For righteousness, there will be other lesser crowns; those crowns build-up, from one crown to another until the three major crowns are complete.
This king came because of the conquest of Abraham. By the time he was blessing Abraham, he used a particular word (enemies), that Abraham never had a justification for. In other words, the word was not related to what Abraham was. Abraham was not the enemy of those kings. Melchizedek appeared to him as a seal of dominion because he had dealt with certain kings.
Genesis 14:20 KJV
And blessed be the most high God, which hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand. And he gave him tithes of all.
Why will Melchizedek call this scenario of the warfare of Abraham with these kings, as a deliverance of enemies into his hands? Why are they Abrahams enemies? There was a spirit who began to get interested in the place where Abraham settled. If those kings had taken over sodom, they would have stopped the plan of God, for Abraham to possess the land. They would have killed the inhabitants of this land.
Genesis 14:1 KJV
And it came to pass in the days of Amraphel king of Shinar, Arioch king of Ellasar, Chedorlaomer king of Elam, and Tidal king of nations;
Shinar came from Babylon. These kings came together, they migrated; they must have journeyed. Shinar is present-day Iraq. They came down to take Sodom. But Melchizedek was happy that Abraham moved to slay all these kings. They would have taken over Canaan land. Abraham delivered the kingdom of Sodom from these five kings. Sodom should have learned; but after the deliverance of Lot, he still went with Sodom. Sodom should be around Palestine, around the salt sea, which is now the Dead Sea.
It was Satan who moved these kings against Abraham; and Abraham moved as well to deliver Lot, not leaving him. He delivered Lot from these kings. He slewed all of them with just 300 men - 300 men against five terrible kings. A natural man would not have agreed to make that war, such men would have pushed the blame on the rebellious Lot. But Abraham had journeyed with God and had received the strength to make that war. He went for the war in obedience to Gods instructions.
The intention of satan is not just to destroy Sodom. Satan knew Abraham wanted to settle in Canaan land, so he wanted to abort the process of God's nation. Satan can move tribes, men, bandits, to abort the plan of God. But God delivered Abrahams enemy into his hands. All those who are enemies of God's plan will fall.
Melchizedek was a King of righteousness, King of Salem, and also a Priest of the Most High. These are the three major titles of Gods dominion. The kingdom of heaven is pregnant with these three dominions. The last dominion is called, the Kingdom of God. So there is the kingdom of righteousness, the kingdom of peace, and the kingdom of Joy.
The Kingdom of Joy is the kingdom of everlasting life. The Kingdom of peace is the highest crown of Christ. It is the kingdom of the godly man. A godly man is a king of peace. Someone who has come into contentment is a king. He is a king because he has fought with spirits that initiate a life that is not peaceful, a life of one who is not at peace with God, or someone who does not agree with God.
There is the doing of righteousness, and the dominion is called righteousness. You start by doing righteousness and as you continue in obedience, a time will come when you will become a King of righteousness. It means that you have attained a crown of righteousness. The first dominion in heaven is righteousness. The second is to obey and go beyond just being a king of righteousness to become a king of peace. You agree with God, to come into partnership with God. It is therefore required of you to obey Christ to the fullest, to be ready for God.
The first two kings (righteousness and peace) are those who have conquered the law of sin and death. There is a law of sin and that of death. A king of peace is he who has to unwind the law of the first death; who conquers sin or detonates sin and then by further walk, he makes peace with GOD in Christ. Righteousness deals with sin; peace deals with death.
Romans 8:1-2 KJV
There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
The law of the spirit of life in Christ is in two folds. To be carnally minded is sin and death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. To be spiritually minded is not just to renew your mind with scriptures in a few days. It goes beyond the renewal of the mind. The mind thing is the end of a spiritual man. When the heart is equipped so much that it comes into your mind, it becomes the cap you are wearing. So it is not just something that happens within, it appeared. It has already been manifested, and it will be made clear in the realm of the spirit.
The law of sin and death is being enforced, though by spirits. There are spirits in the hierarchy of Satan's dominion. Their dominion is by that law of sin and death. If any man wants to break off their dominion, he has to first kill or deal with the law; so when Abraham slew kings, he slew laws. New Testament saints do not find physical kings but spiritual ones. They are the principalities and powers, rulers of the darkness of this world, and spiritual wickedness in high places. These kings operate by spiritual laws— one of which is the law of sin and death.
A man is not made free by mere quotation of scriptures, but by walk. We possess our land by walking. Walk is both for the establishment of a law and the breaking of another. When God wants to set a man free, he would make him walk on laws not against it. We do not know how to naturally break laws but by the law of the spirit of life in Christ.
Romans 8:13 KJV
For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.
Every true child of God should be a killer (of wrong kings or laws) in the spirit. A ring is the crown of the hand. The prodigal son was given a ring because he overcame (Luke 15:22). He walked against things that held him bound. Returning home requires killing. The prodigal son was able to kill the law that killed him by going back home. He realized that is the power of repentance. The day you are able to kill your laws, you have slayed your kings. Spirits are not handled the way demons are handled. Real influences of spirits come upon men and they wont know. Ministry is real, but we should check our mindset about it. Spirits know how to hijack things. The reason for Christianity is to lay hold on dominions, not to do ministry.
The first sin is from the law of sin and death. And we overcome it by overcoming works in spirit. For you to be free from the hands of a king, you need to be introduced to a king who is stronger than that king. The first king is Christ, who embodies the law of the spirit of life. The law of the spirit of life is in two folds — life and peace.
Peace is an antidote to the death (of sin). The inner man will not rise to the challenge except it is beckoned to it, by the mention of this law of life and peace. This is what the human spirit of a believer is made up of. The spirit of a believer is both righteous and holy.
Ephesians 4:24 KJV
And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.
Satanic dominion is not about carnal oppression, like spirits that cause illnesses, diseases, etc. With prayer and quotation of some scriptures, one can be delivered from certain spirits, but those are carnal deliverances. True deliverance is the unlearning of a law that a man has been using. Laws are involved in the formation of nature in a man. So, the method of deliverance, such as laying of hands, cannot be used to cast out a wrong nature.
Evil spirits build nature and put sicknesses and diseases around nature so that we would only concentrate on the superficial. One can be in this state for a very long time. Jesus said he would reject us if all that we focus on is around the outward man because it amounts to very little in the spirit.
Matthew 7:22-23 KJV
Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
A worker of iniquity focuses on casting out demons but fails to deal with the important things in his soul. Such a heart is not right; because he should have known better that the Lord is more concerned about the inward nature. To cast out demons from a man is not yet an adoption into the kingdom of God. To be adopted, a wrong nature that is in him must have been destroyed. The new birth gives one the ability to break free from a wrong dominion and that is why we first need to be born again.
John 3:5 KJV
"Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
After the new birth, freedom will only come when we begin to obey the water and the spirit. The nature of spirits is that spirits will guide us in their law. They will do anything for a man to do their laws. Evil spirits can teach a man spiritual things that are meant to kill the man. Spirits communicate spirit. The carnal life is borne out of a spiritual law that is against God. One of the dangerous ways for Satan to kill is the extraction of mankind from presence. To make the presence of God of non-importance. All realms outside the spirit are usable by spirit. Even the intellectual world is not free from spirits because even the lecturers are not free, for they carry laws.
There are two major laws of Satan — the first is darkness. Darkness here does not speak of witches and wizards. Darkness is a law that a carnal man uses. There are three major spiritual hierarchies that serve darkness— power, principalities, and rulers of the darkness of this world. The greatest strength in darkness is the rulers.
Judas was under the operation of these spirits and yet he was casting out demons. These spirits are not the demonical operation of Satan that Jesus trained men to cast out; rather, they have to do with spiritual stature. Some anointings can cut down these spirits; they are the anointing for dealing with nature, for anointing differs.
Revelation 1:18 KJV
I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.
The last key is the key of hell and death. Hell and death are different from sin and death. The spiritual wickedness in high places is majorly divided into two — hell and death. Hell and death are laws and they cannot be handled by the laws of life and peace. One needs more than the law of life and peace to deal with hell and death. It was a spiritual wickedness that was sent to Paul while he had some Christ formation. But while he was crying, he saw another man that was higher than his present state. That man operated a higher law that made him be caught up to the third heaven.
Principalities and powers and rulers of the darkness of this world war with the first and second heaven, while spiritual wickedness in high places operates with the third heaven. Lucifer is a third heaven being that fell and around him are spiritual wickedness in high places. All these spirits that are under the devil are no longer the same; they left their first estate. They learned more than the place where they are supposed to be kept. Spiritual wickedness was a spirit of second heaven but because they agreed with a third heavenly being, they learned so well. Satan taught them so much about the third realm of heaven. In trying to be a third heavenly angel, they became twisted. They moved negatively higher and turned. So God delivered them to hell. When Adam fell, they ascended into the heaven of man and they have been there ever since.
Our Lord Jesus spoiled them by killing their laws. He destroyed their laws by destroying him that had the power of death and hell, not just of sin. When Jesus handled that death, He took it and destroyed it. Jesus destroyed the law by obedience, even unto the death of the cross. What happened to Satan also happened in the realm of the spirit. Obedience to the cross is an annihilation of the law.
2 Corinthians 5:21 KJV
For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.
Spiritual wickedness were seraphims before but Satan deceived them by making them also exalt themselves. Satan tempted them with a lift that was not given to them by God. They were the spirits that left their first estate. People have interpreted the fallen state of these angels wrongly. No angel will leave heaven to marry a woman. They have more pleasure than that. Their heavenly sphere is better than the sphere of a fallen man. We should not leave our estate even when Satan is tempting us to do so. Spiritual wickedness has the wicked in their midst, for the wicked do evil. The name "Devil"means the doer of evil.
Revelation 12:12 KJV
Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.
Revelation 12:9 KJV
And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
There are two words here. Devil and Satan. (D)Evil is wickedness, but Satan is another name. The work of Satan is higher than wickedness. Satan taught spirits wickedness and he sent one of his messengers to buffet Paul who had revelations in abundance. The purpose of that spirit was to stop Paul from climbing to the third heaven. So the spirit came to do a wicked work. The wicked work was a thorn in Paul's flesh. The work was not the disease but to keep Paul busy over a matter, and not to be able to ascend. Persecution and distress are there but one of the greatest persecutions of Paul were wicked men;they were raised by that spiritual wickedness.
Alexander the coppersmith did much evil; this evil was an everlasting work of Satan (2 Timothy 4:14). Satan wanted to stop Paul from bursting into life everlasting. He knew the purpose of revelation was to ascend but he never knew that God had a different design for revelation such that when you want to tear apart a man of revelation, it will turn to everlasting glory.
2 Corinthians 4:8-12
We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed; Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body. For we which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus' sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh. So then death worketh in us, but life in you.
2 Corinthians 4:15-16
For all things are for your sakes, that the abundant grace might through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God. For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.
This is not Christ's renewal, it is God's renewal because it is done day by day —such a soul is in the day of God.
2 Corinthians 4:17
For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory;
Spirits war against revelation. The young man wars with the wicked one but to war with Satan is a serious battle. Wickedness is hell while death is satanic. So Jesus said that He has both the keys of hell and death. Wicked works are evil, but the work that is Satan is the hinderer or the adversary. The wicked man and the adversary is such a person that can withstand people. He is in high places doing wicked works and he is also hindering people's work. To overcome these works, you need the keys that Jesus possesses.
There are two works of the devil; all the works of the devil to the seven churches are both wicked works and Satanic works. The work of Balaam is not just wickedness, it is a work of hindering the people of God. All the things that those seven churches, except one, were lured into were both wickedness and satanic work. Before Jesus began to instruct the seven churches, he said "I have the keys of hell and death". This shows that the purpose of Jesus' revelation to them is to deliver them from hell and death.
Revelation 1:19-20
Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter; The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks which thou sawest are the seven churches.
These seven stars are different from seven candlesticks. The stars take a higher position. The candlesticks can be stars. So, in the letters to the churches, they wrote to the stars because it is the stars who will read it to the seven churches. The stars have enough illumination to interpret the mysteries of everlasting life.
One needs more than Christ to deal with hell and death. We need to handle the word of God but before then, we must have done the word of Christ very well. You can attain everlasting life and you still have sin; it means there is something that you are still doing wrong. This is because light has not completely shone in your heart. But when the light fully dawns on you, the daystar will arise in your heart.
The keys of hell and death are not about hell but God. When it is being taught, hell and death roll backward. Hell and death are a law and the law is in Satan. But you need a higher law that Christ possesses - the law is in the fullness of Christ called the Son of God. It is the law of the High Priest. The only one who carries the law is the high priestly development of Jesus. It is the law that is responsible for the making of the son of God. A full doer of that law will come into the fullness of the Son of God. So the Son of God is a personality which, when preached to a man and such man obeys, hell and death are detonated. Hell is not descending nor physical suffering; it can be the highest pleasure on earth. Hell is a home where death is kept. Hell is a shell of death; it is a house of death
Hell protects death. When you get to hell and break it, you will meet death. Death is trickier and tougher. Death is the law of hell. The strength of hell is death. Hell is a facade to keep death from being reached. If you get to death and you refuse to kill it, it will recreate hell. This is the purpose of the gospel of God.
To live in hell is to live by a lower law of death; it is the law that death projects to protect itself. The first life that one will see when in the world of everlasting life is to be taught to war with hell. The first work of the churches is hell while the last is death.
Devil and Satan are both evil but one is the strongest of evil. There is a life higher than sin and death and they are all life or agreements or covenants under the sun. The instruction of everlasting submission is against hell. Satan is presently setting the stage for hell.
The antichrist will also not have regard for women - it is all a center stage for hell. In the days we are coming into, it is going to be a status of pride to be an independent woman. Women will not be able to raise their daughters according to scriptures, because the Bible life will be disdained in the days of gross darkness that is ahead.
Some men will also want to be independent of women. When a man develops himself so much to a point where he does not need respect from anyone, it is evil. Women give life to men. When a woman respects a man, he is being moved towards God.
Ark is for preservation. It will raise a community of people that will preserve mankind. God said they should take things into the ark, male and female. They didnt take in anything that is not male and female. Even for Moses, it was two stones. There is a male and female counterpart of those tablets of stones. God decided to take males and females to preserve the species of how GOD made them. Man is dying to get an expected end, and that is where the antichrist will clutch a man. But God will deliver us from the wrong ends.
