Programme: Anamnesis Prayer Meeting (Grand Finale)
Date: Thursday, 30th November 2023
Transcript Summary
1. We are in the season when Jesus will be allowed by God to come to men and do the ministry that the Father sent Him to do. The ethics of the ministry of the right hand entails that Jesus cannot of His volition come until the Father deems it fit for Him to come. We must know that Jesus has been sent and there can never be a restitution of all things until He is sent (Acts 3:20-21). Restitution has to do with the restoration of something that was taken, stolen or removed. However, Christ has to be fully preached to a believer before the restitution of all things will come.
2. Jesus cannot be taught to us until He comes to us. But there are many things (different feelings and savours of Satan that are poured out already) that will not make us fully hear Jesus Christ because they are against His appearance. The sending of Jesus after He has been preached is His apostolic ministry and this ministry is not a matter of earthly things. Restitution of all things has to do with heavenly things, for it is beyond earthly things of God. This is what John 3:16 is about. Restitution of all things is beyond being born again. We have to be born again to have a first entrance into God’s kingdom. Then one can ascend and qualify for heavenly things.
3. From the order of God’s things or spiritual things, Jesus cannot come until people go (grow/are raised) up spiritually. When Jesus comes to a man through visions, he has not really come to Him. Jesus must come to us in His ministry. All prophets experience visions, but the prophetic ministry transcends visions. Vision is the power by which the prophetic ministry is expressed. But one can have vision and not have prophecy. Prophecy is understanding or revelation. One who has vision and not prophecy is not yet a true prophet. Every true prophet should have his understanding enlightened. A true prophet of the New Testament is he who discerns scripture by the prophetic oil.
4. The bringing back of Jesus is the restitution of all things. Many people ought to have been a part of this but the blindness that the devil has heaped on the path of His coming has stopped them. Satan wants to make sure that Jesus never ministers again, so he put a lot of things in between the saved Christians on earth and Jesus who is seated at the right hand of the Father. The ministry of Jesus can only come to those who can receive it. The pattern of the ministry of heavenly things differs from the pattern of the ministry of earthly things. As such, heaven can be operating and earth may not know it. But God wants to make sure that the heavens and the earth synchronize (Matt. 6:10).
5. Jesus ascended in His soul; this means some things must have been coming to Him. He had the coming of God while He was on earth and the Father raised Him; this is the same thing we are experiencing. It was as the Lord was appearing to Isaac and Jacob that He became their God (Gen. 35:9). The Spirit of God is presently establishing the ministry of coming or restitution. What appearance really means is to make the ministry of Jesus speak.
6. The enemy fights the ministry of the Lamb — the coming of Jesus. When our soul ascends, Jesus comes. The coming of Jesus means the release of His ministry. When Jesus comes into our midst, He does not come to earth but into heaven. This is because anyone whom Jesus comes to has left the earth. Our Lord Jesus does not come amidst souls who are still carnal (earthly); He comes amidst souls who have ascended and can receive heavenly things or ministry. But before one can get out of the earth, one has to be preached to.
7. If God does not find people who have ascended to heaven, Jesus cannot be brought. Jesus first ascended spiritually in His soul and later on, He physically went up to be retained there. A people need to arise, who will recognise the ministry of Jesus and see the need for it. Satan does not want us to see the need for Jesus. Jesus came to restitute or change what is currently in place. If those things are removed, Satan is done. But as long as those things are in the hearts of men, there is still time for Satan. What Satan builds in the heart of people is a home or an abode for himself.
8. “Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves…” (Isa. 28:15). Lie is a refuge and when it is built in a man, Satan abides in him and becomes his father. When Satan abides in a man, such will also abide in him. But restitution takes away lies and falsehood. Falsehood is a heavenly material and is therefore not easy to resist. This is why Jesus had to come down to remove them. If truth abides in a man, heaven is abiding in him. Truth is heaven. For truth's sake, Jesus had to come and plead reconciliation for the sins of the people. The sins of the people are the lies and falsehood of the people.
9. Lie is the corruptible seed. It is also a life, for someone used it to frame life. This is why it will take the voice of Him that speaks in heaven and the blood of sprinkling to remove lies. Satan is no longer anybody’s master if his lie is no longer in us. This lie is a spirit but Jesus called it flesh because it profits nothing (Jn. 6:63).
10. “That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death…” (Philipp. 3:10). One cannot have truth except such knows God. Knowing God is in grades. To know Him is to know the power of His resurrection. What made Him is what raised Him. The power of resurrection is the power that puts His truth together or that constitutes Him. It is the power that gave birth to Him.
11. “And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them. [28] 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.” (Eze. 36:27-28). There are two lands: the one given to our fathers and the one He wants to possess through us (our hearts). We must dispossess the enemies of God in our hearts. These enemies are the lies and refuges; they are spirits. Satan does not need to be physically in a man because he stays in men by breath. It is the Lamb that has the sword of the Spirit to kill our enemies; this sword will reach to our intents and thoughts.
12. “Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. [15] For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.” (Heb. 4:14-15). Jesus did not sin but He knows all sins. He knows all the Amalekites and Hivites because he lived with men who had them. The powers of death are lies and falsehood. When these things are being removed, we war with sins. As they are removed, the laws of God are written on our souls. Then when laws are written and falsehoods are removed, we will know Him. There are all manner of blessings in knowing or meeting Him. To know God is not just to know His word. The highest blessing that can be given to a man is Him (God).
13. “Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.” (Rev. 1:7). Jesus is announcing the ministry to us and we are privileged to know this or to be aware of His coming when it is not obvious to the world. The true way of seeing Jesus when He appears is by understanding. What will lead to this experience is the appearance of Jesus to His people. Some will see Him before every eye sees Him. We should not lose this allocation. God is a Holy Shrine that a man should not deny when he sees Him, or else such will be doomed. The voice of His mouth is truth or spirit (Acts 22:14). When it speaks, we will hear the restitution of all things.
Blessings!
