Eternal Glorious Fountain Ministry (EGFM)
Date: Thursday, 9th December 2021
God told me that there were contentions when the faith of the Son of God was unveiled; and as such, there will also be greater contentions with everlasting life and Eternal Life. He further said that contentions and contradictions are the process of our making. God said, “I will make you everlasting and it will be the making of an ark that will bear My glory”. He also told me that we would have to learn to love in a much deeper way, even in the face of much attack and assault.
Like in the house of Joseph, God has committed a heritage to this house/work (in EGFM) – one in which the whole body of Christ will need in the time of famine. Joseph had to go through a process on behalf of the whole house of Israel for the purpose of salvation.
However, many people would not like to go through that process for the sake of salvation. Thus, we need a lot of attitudes of the spirit to continue on the journey of salvation. Satan wants us to offend God because we have a tendency to react in the face of contradictions. Just like Jesus prevailed, He will teach us to prevail also. Jesus will teach us how to handle contradictions and bear the burden of God.
All the miracles in the book of John archived messages concerning everlasting life; they are not ordinary miracles. They were signatures to the message Jesus brought. In actuality, miracles are supposed to be a sign to the message, which is the actual work our Lord Jesus heralded. His first miracle which involved turning water to wine is a miracle of everlasting life (John 2:1-10). This miracle signified the transition from Christ into the everlasting realm; it is the message He came to preach. This would be the order of miracles in the future; it is the order of the New Testament.
Jesus performed these miracles not as a prophet of the five-fold but as a prophet of God; He demonstrated God by signs. The real work of the Father is higher than the healing of the body. The Father wants to heal man of the forces of corruption because He is the giver of incorruption. Jesus demonstrated that His work is to align with His Father’s work and this work is to raise man.
To raise a man is to heal a man. This means we do the work of healing when we can raise man from the dead. The healing of the man at the pool of Bethesda was a sign that the sole reason for the coming of the Son is to make man whole. This involves restoring man from the state of perishing.
After performing miracles, Jesus began to preach because He came to herald a life. The work of the Father goes further beyond the healing of the body; it involves the recovery of man from corruption. This work involves the raising of men because to raise a man is to heal him. There is a continuous work the Father does (John 5:19), and Jesus understood this work of restoring man back into the state of incorruption.
Without bread there is no life. The breaking of the bread is the opening up of a life. If bread is not broken, life cannot be accessed. The New Testament involves the continuous breaking of bread as signified in our communion. All the syllabus of learnings are bread courses -- from the bread of life, to living bread, and then to Eternal bread or the bread of God (John 6:33-51). God has His own bread which is the hidden manna. The house of God is meant to be a feeding center. As we feed, we access domains of life.
Jesus partook of all these breads. He ate food that we do not know of (John 4:34). The finishing of the work that was done in His soul is the finishing of all the bread. The bread is what supplies strength to do the will of God and in doing so, we enter into dominions of life. One of the greatest needs in the Church are priests who must know how to offer up the bread of God. The house of God must churn out bread at different levels, like a bakery.
The man-child company overcame and sat on the throne by feeding within the womb of God. The secret to overcoming the enemy is in feeding. The attacks of the enemy are to stop us from eating. They try to keep us in the place of hearing without believing. This is because they know that without believing, there is no feeding. When we feed, we go beyond the radar of the dragon. The man-child fed so much that the dragon could not prevail over him (Rev. 12:17).
Our major contention is the argument against eating. Everything that was programmed in us was put there to fight our spiritual feeding; they are to make us resist understanding when it comes. Spirits put different works in our souls to resist the food coming to us. This is because they know that if we feed, we will overcome. Jesus multiplied bread in John 6 to signify the multiplication of life.
Spiritual wickedness cannot be broken with the shewbread of Christ; the living bread is required to deal with such high spirits. Paul had so much food and it was evident in his abundance of understanding, such that a messenger of Satan was sent to buffet him (2 Cor 12:7-9). Attacking the food source of a nation disarms them. We must pray that God will keep our ministers. If the source of our spiritual food is stopped, a generation has been attacked.
The Church retrogresses whenever Satan attacks our food. We are grateful to God that we have bread in the house, so we should feed well. We must eat all the seasons of bread because they are connected. The bread of Christ links to the living bread, and the living bread links to the Eternal bread. If we do not eat the "bread of Christ" well, we will not be empowered to eat the "living bread". By multiplying bread in John 6, Jesus witnessed that the time of abundance had come; and it typified that it was time to move into the everlasting domain.
The will of God is what supplies the template of walk. There are works to be done in the New Testament; and if there is no will, there is no walk. The real walk of a man is carried out (done) by obeying the will of God. We need to do the will of Christ which is supplied by the bread of Christ, and then we can do a higher will. The Father’s will is a higher bread (living bread) that Jesus partook of. The living bread is an injection of power. It is the power that lifts a soul to be caught up to God and to sit on God's throne. To refuse evil is to be kept from the wicked one. As the bread is eaten, there will be power to refuse evil and choose the good (Isa. 7:15).
One must first partake of the bread that is Christ. Bread gives understanding. Eternal Life is an understanding; it is a reasoning and it is a sense. In coming to Eternal Life, one would feed on everlasting life till he breaks into Eternal Life. It will come as thoughts and then it will form ways. This formula is communicated via doctrine. It is through the systematics of doctrine that life is communicated. We need to do Christ to a place of all pleasing before we can come to the Father. This is because the doing of Christ unto all pleasing is our lift into the will of the Father.
“For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; [10] That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God [11] Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness.” (Col. 1:11). The living power communicated the glorious power. It is the power of lift that lifts one above the dragon. All patience is a wisdom in God with which He wars with the dragon. There are weavings of power inside God that do not make Him react to Satan. This is a high level of wisdom that evil spirits cannot understand.
It was because of envy that Egypt thought to destroy the Israelites; but they used their hands to nurture a man who would liberate the people of Israel. Moses was raised in the kingdom of Egypt. This is why God is to be feared; He is the God of all patience and He is not moved by what Satan is doing.
All the doctrines of life (life, everlasting life, Eternal Life) are all levels of bread for the soul to partake of, and they must be broken so that we can enter into all phases of life. This is because the secret of overcoming is tied to our feeding. As we feed, we are doing a work. Feeding is beyond just the hearing of the word; it is also the doing of a work.
Christ purges, but the Father is a greater sanctifier. We are in a very high ground in the spirit, and we must value the work that is being done. There is no point in hearing and not changing. When we hear the word and do not do it, we are wasting the food. The ability not to waste food is a nature of God. At the miracle of multiplication of bread, Jesus told them to gather the leftovers because they are still useful (Matt. 14:20).
Every food has its work. Food is coming because there is work to be done. As we eat, we also undo the works in our souls. Whenever the word is being communicated, our thoughts are being x-rayed. We must be changing, in order to value the food that is being brought. We must do as we hear.
“Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.” (James 1:17). The gifts are food; they are doctrines and understanding. Christ, the Father and God have gifts. The Holy Ghost also has gifts that are for the soul to profit with. The first gift of Christ is the gift of knowledge and understanding.
Once there is defilement of food, everything is contaminated; this is food-poisoning. It means a little leaven leavens the whole lump (1 Corin. 5:6, Gal. 5:9). We must shift into love and never defile truth. Satan would fight us to compromise; this is the warfare of priests. If we do not change our ground into love, we would not be able to stay on the doctrine of life.
The Father's gifts are the good gifts and perfect gifts which are from above (James 1:17). They are lights that would make us not to vary or turn. These are natures in God and they are works that must be done in the soul. God would reject those who compromise doctrine. This is because doctrines are landmarks that God sets. Not varying is a feature of incorruptibility. This feature is done by food. The Father begats with light; He begets with the word of everlasting life (the living bread). The Father wants firstfruits – those who are begotten by truth. The firstfruits have the Father's name on their forehead (Rev. 14:1-5).
The epistle of James was written from an everlasting life point of view. "Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath: [20] For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God. [21] Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word which is able to save your souls. [22] But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves." (James 1:19-22). We lay apart by feeding. This is the realm of everlasting purging. The engrafted word is the work of everlasting life. They want to engraft incorruption -- the nature of God -- in us. Everlasting word is to be implanted into the soul so that we can partake of the fellowship of the Father. Everlasting life can be engrafted in the soul.
The word is to save the soul. To be saved to the uttermost is to be made incorruptible, such that can not vary and cannot turn. The word of salvation is being communicated and we must be doers of the word. Feeding comprises both hearing and doing (James 1:23). We must not be knowledgeable people alone. The word is painting change to us and we must seek to become it; we should have it as an ambition. We move from the law of liberty to the perfect law. We need perfect law to handle hell and death.
We have to stay and dwell in the word; we must continue therein and not linger. If we forget, we cannot do; and if we do not do, we cannot be made. As such, we cannot break spirits. The blessing is to be formidable, kept and preserved, having the features of the Father. A blessed man is an incorruptible man. The Father is an abider; He is a house. We cannot abide in God except we abide first in the Father. The Father has a house called God. We are to do the Father's will; we are expected to do His work and be engrafted in His nature.
“And ye shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; and ye shall be my people, and I will be your God. [29] I will also save you from all your uncleannesses: and I will call for the corn, and will increase it, and lay no famine upon you.” (Eze. 36:28-29). It will take an everlasting man to call for the corn. God has His own bread. In the realm of the reward is the world of Eternal Life. A realm of feasting on the word of God. The realm of Eternal Life is the realm of increase. At His right hand are pleasures forevermore (Psa. 16:11); those are eternal thoughts.
The thoughts of God do not end. We would feed and increase, and there shall be no end to our feeding. God is reigning in Eternal Life and He wants us to come there. He wants us to come to a place where He is reigning in life and stay there.
