Christ-mind is a living mind. A man with such a mind has used faith and has been made alive. Such a man has been helped to a high level and has been awoken from the sleep of the dead. But there is still more work to be done even with Christ-mind so that every residue of dead works in the soul is fully taken away. God will upgrade our judgement (Amen).
Nehemiah 8:5
“And Ezra opened the book in the sight of all the people; (for he was above all the people;) and when he opened it, all the people stood up…”
The book Ezra opened here is the book of the covenant that Moses used. On Monday during the WTV prayer meeting, we saw a difference between victory over the world in Revelation 11 and victory over the dragon in Revelation 12. We saw the two dimensions of the kingdom. We had a major breakthrough on that Monday and there was a separation of waters.
Now, Ezra opened the book as he was above all the people at that time, just like God has helped God's servant (Rev. Kayode Oyegoke) to be ahead of us.
Tongues and Interpretation (1)
“Even in April, that season called April; that visitation that came in April, that open door in April is a major open door for you as a people for the definition of the new phase of my dealing with you. I opened a great door in April and this door is prospering. What you see now is an outflow of what I did in April. Teaching men to overcome spirits that fight men from entering. Therefore I bring blessing, I send my angel to cause doors to be opened in their own accord. I sent help again for the re-digging of the well so that more blessings may flow for it is a season of the great outbreak for many to be blessed. I will grow eyes and legs for men to come to this allocation.”

I sense strongly in my spirit that God has given a high stand to the servant of God (Rev. Kayode Oyegoke) in the spirit, just like Ezra was above all the people.
At a point, Paul had to defend his authority. He devoted two chapters to defend his apostolic calling. The Corinthian church, because of carnality, could not discern Paul. They needed to discern him well for them to receive all God deposited in him. So, we can see that he who God sent, he gave the word. Because of that, there is a place for raising a man above others. It is not self-exaltation. It is by the reason of the word of God. The word of God never leaves you, it works in you to make you a mouthpiece to those he is sending you to.
So Ezra opened the book. When I say “the book”, it has to do with the issue of everlasting life. We have developed some senses concerning the seals. We are now in the matter of the book and so we are discussing the issue of everlasting and eternal life. You cannot read the book if you are not learned. He that is learned is he that has gained sense. In Isaiah, they gave the book to him that is learned (Isa. 29:12).
There is a particular thing that has to do with the seal that if it has not worked on you, you will fall short. The essence of the seals is to help you gain senses. In the book of Revelation chapter 5 verses 2-3, it is asked who was worthy to open the seal and to look therein.
The season we are in is one to look into the book or what James calls looking into the laws of liberty (Jam. 1:25).
1 John 1:1
“That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life…”
Hearing is not a thing you stumble at. It does not stop in hearing alone, there is a place for doing things that are prescribed. Faith has its lessons or commandments that God bring to our hearts. When you do them, they tamper with our senses and person.
2 Corinthians 4:16
“For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.”
A new man is one that has gained a kind of sense for the new testament. To make the inward man new is not just that you say it, it must be worked in us.
Romans 6:4
“Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.”
Ephesians 4:23
“And be renewed in the spirit of your mind…”
That spirit being referred to in that verse is spirit in relation to the soul not your recreated human spirit. All those obediences are things that are necessary to renew the spirit of the mind. You obey righteousness unto holiness. That newness of spirit is by the obedience to doctrine. Because of obedience, you are made free from sin (Rom. 6:17-18).
Sin is a sense. That is why a child can sin without having seen anyone do such. Sin is a sense and righteousness changes our sense.
Nehemiah 8:6-8
“And Ezra blessed the Lord, the great God. And all the people answered, Amen, Amen, with lifting up their hands: and they bowed their heads, and worshipped the Lord with their faces to the ground. [7] Also Jeshua, and Bani, and Sherebiah, Jamin, Akkub, Shabbethai, Hodijah, Maaseiah, Kelita, Azariah, Jozabad, Hanan, Pelaiah, and the Levites, caused the people to understand the law: and the people stood in their place. [8] So they read in the book in the law of God distinctly, and gave the sense, and caused them to understand the reading.”
In verse 7 of Nehemiah chapter 8, “they read distinctly” means they understood well and did not muddle things up. “Those who through use exercise their senses” (Heb. 5:14). The word “use” there is obedience upon obedience. There is a way you should obey.
Anything that is worth paying attention to, attend to it in the morning. Hear twice, faith comes by hearing and hearing the word of faith. So when God's servant is teaching, we are reading. As God's servant comes to teach, God wants us to read it. This is because you cannot alone understand the matter of everlasting life. You need sense to understand.
Understanding carves sense in us. The giving of understanding helps us gain sense. Sprinkling is going on now.
Isaiah 52:13-15
“Behold, my servant shall deal prudently, he shall be exalted and extolled, and be very high. [14] As many were astonied at thee; his visage was so marred more than any man, and his form more than the sons of men: [15] So shall he sprinkle many nations; the kings shall shut their mouths at him: for that which had not been told them shall they see; and that which they had not heard shall they consider.”
This is a very high servant, he is a high priest. They used water for the outer court and that water does something to the flesh. That water is Christ and that is what Ephesians chapter 5 was referring to when talking to husbands about loving their wives as Christ (Eph. 5:25-26).
A man without water (Christ) cannot enter the holy place. We must hear faith over and again that they may provide substance. In the new testament, they wash our inward man with water, the word. There are things He addresses and takes away from us. The teaching of the word of God helps us to access the sanctuary.
Ezekiel 36:25
“Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you.”
What God uses to heal the disease of the inward man is clean water. Healing that Christ brings gradually heals our inward sense from what it is being designed with. Our inward man is an expert in sin.
Worldly sense is a kind of sense and it is sin. We must start seeing sin as a sense. Worldly wisdom teaches us how to keep our sins. These worldly senses are sometimes not obvious or big or messy like murder or rape. These senses can look good to man. Plan B is a kind of worldly sense. What made Cain depart from the presence of God is a kind of sense. These worldly senses have degrees. Some are sins and others are transgressions. There is a water they minister to us in the outer court and the essence is for us to enter the sanctuary. In the sanctuary, what is sprinkled is water (Christ). There is Christ the water and Christ the blood.
There are things that we can never see or consider without the sprinkling. That is why the servants of God come to minister to us. They make us see what we have never seen. To see is to understand; to see is to consider. God is sprinkling us so we can see and consider His thoughts. Those thoughts help us to renew the spirit of our mind. What you think about is what you become because as a man thinks so he is (Prov. 23:7).
The essence of God's servant laboring over us is so we can see and consider things we have never seen. This everlasting life is real and possible. There is an amount of sprinkling that can come to one that such a person will begin to consider some things they never knew they could consider.
When we are being sprinkled, God raises our judgments. I want to charge us to be ready for a great time. As God feasts us, you should know that the words coming to you are not ordinary and you will begin to consider them. Be ready for many sprinklings and the essence of it is for you to see and begin to consider. I thank God that the high priest is in our midst.
Tongues and Interpretation
“For it is me the Father has officiating it. For you see things that pertain to everlasting cannot be officiated by any other than the high priest. Whenever words concerning everlasting life are coming, I am the one officiating it. I am the one. It is I that is declaring it and officiating it. For the Father has committed into my hands, for to officiate it. Do not doubt in your heart. I am the one officiating it and will bring you to the finish. For I have many things to sprinkle upon you, for I will yet sprinkle you until you carry everlasting sense and have entrance to eternal sense. I will sprinkle you to the end, even to the throne.”
Tongues and Interpretation
“For you see I have a mandate of my Father, for to bring many sons unto glory. I have a mandate of my Father and therefore I stand in the midst as one officiating, for to bring many for there is the season of declaring things everlasting, of bringing many sons to glory. Therefore, gird up the loins of your mind, for to be prepared for many sprinklings. It is a mandate given to me by my Father and I stand to see that come to pass. I want to bring many sons to glory. I want to bring you all to glory, to the end. I am declaring it and will yet declare it. I will speak more, it is my mandate and I will fulfill it and accomplish it.”

In this season of everlasting life, our number will triple because many will understand it better. This is because the angel in charge of this has a mandate and has sworn an oath. We are dealing with things of prophecy. People who heard Christ and drew back and did not understand will hear everlasting life and will respond.
Tongues and Interpretation
“It's to bring many sons to glory. It's to bring the multitude that all My courts should be filled. To bring multitudes, and I Jesus the shepherd of the flock, I will open my fountain. I will feed many, for I will possess My vessels much more than ever before. There will be plenty meal. I will bring in many. I will give authority over souls of men. I will give right of men over souls of many, for many will be converted. This is the harvest. There is an upcoming harvest. Many will appear before My Father even before the closing of the age, for to be sprinkled and to be fed, to fight over come and sit. Saith the Lord.”

If you've struggled with the things of Christ and not able to hold on should not make you despise or become cold to these Things. The solution to your issues is in this. Hear and begin to consider.
Tongues and Interpretation
“It's not enough reason for you to draw back. The apparatus by which I am measuring you is not the same you use. For some things you call infirmity and think you should have overcome will be dealt with in the everlasting things. For I know your heart, that you passionately love me and want to please me. Do not be discouraged but gird up yourself rejoice for I am rejoicing over you. Give attention to these things. I am not condemning you. Arise and walk for I see your heart and judge by your heart.”
