TODAY’S DEVOTION (THURSDAY 19TH MAY 2022)
“Jared lived one hundred and sixty-two years, and begot Enoch. After he begot Enoch, Jared lived eight hundred years, and had sons and daughters. So, all the days of Jared were nine hundred and sixty-two years; and he died.
Enoch lived sixty-five years, and begot Methuselah. After he begot Methuselah, Enoch walked with God three hundred years, and had sons and daughters. So all the days of Enoch were three hundred and sixty-five years.
And Enoch walked with God; and he was not, for God took him.Methuselah lived one hundred and eighty-seven years, and begot Lamech.” Genesis 5:18-24 NKJV
WELCOME TO THE 139TH DAY OF OUR YEAR OF AMAZING GRACE
Today is a great day!
Once again, the giver of life has added one more day to us on the face of the earth. He has appointed another day for us to be alive, fear Him, follow His divine ways and plans, and serve our generation according to His will.
To Him be the glory, honor, and worship, in Jesus precious name.
I submit to you that the best person to be in a cruel world is a child of God in spirit and in truth. Yes, it is to be a practical Christian who has sufficient knowledge of how to lead or live this life.
Sufficient knowledge is key to walking in amazing grace. Because it is through knowledge that we increase in grace. People who increase in knowledge will increase in grace and brighten up their lives through wise decisions.
Wise decisions are not decisions we make based on the promptings of the flesh. They are not decisions we make to satisfy our flesh. Wise decisions are decisions we make based on the promptings of the Spirit, using the knowledge we have acquired through learning.
In the kingdom of GOD, learning does not come to an end. It is a constant activity that begins at a supernatural level through genuine salvation encounter, and continues in time through daily or regular encounters with the Spirit of truth and testimony of Jesus Christ, then wrap up in eternity when we fulfill our days and step into the arms of the LORD in the next life.
When I say wrap up, I do not mean come to an end. A particular level of learning comes to an end here and a higher one begins immediately we are out of our bodies.
SO, LEARNING WILL CONTINUE EVEN IN THE NEXT LIFE BUT AT A MUCH HIGHER LEVEL OF KNOWING.
There are a lot of us in Church today who are not yet in the kingdom of God, but just in our church systems. Sadly, we are not even aware of it because of assumptions and deception. We believe things that are not true told us by impure but anointed hearts we call pastors, and walk in outer darkness religious experiences.
It is important that you check your life regularly to know if you are in GOD’s kingdom because there are 12 signs that can help one know.
Apart from the compelling grace that sits on you to limit your life to only things that are God’s will, one other thing that happens if you are in God’s kingdom is a constant desire for more of God; a desire to pursue the revelation of your King.
Knowing Him more and more becomes your way of living if you are in His kingdom. In fact, it becomes as important to you as living. That is why you here men like our father Paul saying,
“that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death, if, by any means, I may attain to the resurrection from the dead.” Philippians 3:10-11 NKJV
In another place He prayed for his spiritual children to come into deeper dimensions of the knowledge of who God is. Bringing his proteges or sons and daughters in faith to the knowledge of GOD through learning was his drive.
For instance, in the school of Tyrannus, he did not gather them and begin to pour oil on their heads, teach them how to raise, silence or break altars and pour olive oil on the streets.
He did not gather them to deal with spirit husbands and wives. He did not gather them and begin to show them how to keep their marriages alive through sexual intimacy.
He did not gather them to sow seeds to redeem their stars, be delivered from demons, or unlock anything in the spirit or redeem their ages. He did not practice or teach any of the doctrines of men or devils practiced and taught in Church today.
Honestly, if this man of God was on earth today, even if his church was at Rome, I will relocate to Rome with my family to go live there.
I WILL NOT WORSHIP IN ANY OTHER CHURCH BUT HIS OWN.
I will be his spiritual son and be content with sitting down at his feet to hear the word and serve the LORD under his apostolic oversight. But thank God he is still with us here through his wonderful books in the Bible. What he did in the school of Tyrannus remains one of the most successful apostolic invasions in the early Church.
All happened because of his desire to bring men to the realm of knowing GOD for themselves. You see all that in how he spent his life and ministry speaking boldly, reasoning and persuading concerning matters of the kingdom of GOD. Not matters of evil altars, money, marriage and etc.
Now let me bring you to the mysteries of two systems in Acts 19 where Paul ministered. Concerning what he did in the school of Tyrannus, the Bible says;
“And he went into the synagogue and spoke boldly for three months, reasoning and persuading concerning the things of the kingdom of God.
But when some were hardened and did not believe, but spoke evil of the Way before the multitude, he departed from them and withdrew the disciples, reasoning daily in the school of Tyrannus.
And this continued for two years, so that all who dwelt in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks.” Acts 19:8-10 NKJV
You see two patterns here. The synagogue system and the Tyrannus system. Paul tried to put what God gave him a synagogue system. I did that too. But thank Jesus for the encounter I had in 2006.
Through the Tyrannus system, the man Paul turned and entire region of old Asia into a school by making sure they all here the word of the LORD Jesus Christ, just in two years. And that was without the kind of communication systems we have today.
He was heavily backed by God because He was not in an outdated system- the synagogue system. He was also not teaching wrong doctrines, but matters of the Kingdom of God.
And because he was in the divinely approved system and teaching the matters of God’s kingdom he prospered.
The Tyrannus system and the teaching of kingdom matters will always be a threat to charlatans, false prophets and teachers who are custodians of the synagogue system. They will persuade their members to speak evil of the way. That was why even in those days there were people who spoke evil of what Paul was teaching.
BRINGING RELIGIOUS MATTERS TO A SYNAGOGUE SYSTEM COULD BE RECEIVED BUT NO KINGDOM MATTER WILL BE ACCOMMODATED.
Matters concerning the kingdom of God has the inherent power to pull down demonic strongholds in the hearts of people, and destroy any money-making, metaphysical, or political structure that spiritual leaders may have built in the guise of church. That is why they are feared!
No one will be treated friendly in a synagogue system if he or she is established in matters of the kingdom. The best option is not to remain there but walk away.
Prophetically, God has taken us from the synagogue systems of running Church to the Tyrannus system of running church. But many are not aware. He said that to me in 2006 during my 30th Birthday prayer time, and I have run church ministry in the Tyrannus system since then.
When we came to Kenya with the system in 2013, many saw it very strange. I told them this is the kingdom of God. This is how Church ought to be. I made sure wherever I stood, in the few places we ministered, I demolished the synagogue system and established the Tyrannus system, at least for the days they allowed me to preach.
I would later take the system to radio and it resulted in a great revival in the hearts of the elects who had been strangulated and zombified.
Sadly, the disputes and disagreements that happened in the days of Paul repeated themselves. But the kingdom of God could not be stopped. Today, some of those preachers who withstood us are copying pasting all we teach. Some in good faith, others in bad faith.
Bad faith because their members have known the truth and they do not want to lose them.
I remember a woman who contributes about 4000 USD monthly to her church been promise by her pastor that he will follow all the LORD teaches through me because she threatened to leave the church due of the false teachings there. He made her the promise to keep her giving.
Then the man began to copy paste our messages to preach. He did that to remain relevant not really to be a true servant of God. Am told he still practices his deceptive things in between.
The Tyrannus system is where God is now, He has left the synagogue system long ago, that is why it now smells with all kind of unclean things. That’s why there is no glory but just noise and hypocrisy of the highest order. You cannot find practical Christianity there. You only find perverted, adulterated and hypocritical Christianity.
UNDER THE TYRANNUS SYSTEM, THE VISION IS TO MAKE YOU A TEMPLE FOR GOD IN THE SPIRIT.
Learning do not come to an end. You move from knowledge to knowledge in your walk with the LORD, until you are not. In other words, until God take you. You come to the Christ pattern revealed in Enoch that I will like to call the Enoch pattern.
Our devotional text says;
“Jared lived one hundred and sixty-two years, and begot Enoch. After he begot Enoch, Jared lived eight hundred years, and had sons and daughters. So, all the days of Jared were nine hundred and sixty-two years; and he died.
Enoch lived sixty-five years, and begot Methuselah. After he begot Methuselah, Enoch walked with God three hundred years, and had sons and daughters. So all the days of Enoch were three hundred and sixty-five years.
And Enoch walked with God; and he was not, for God took him.
Methuselah lived one hundred and eighty-seven years, and begot Lamech.” Genesis 5:18-24 NKJV
This scriptural text looks like a family album or a family tree but it is much more than that. It has a record of moves of God that have been pre-planned for our age and the age to come.
The names that appear in the scripture are prophetic landmarks not just the names of people. For instance, Enoch represents a people and a pattern of the Church age that will experience the rapture, our age. While Methuselah, the man who lived longest on earth, represents the generation of the millennium reign of Christ.
There is more in the scriptures which we will be looking into in our up coming in-house apostolic summits.
But at this point, permit me to speak as a son of Issachar a little. The current emphasis of the Spirit is to align people to the pattern of Christ in Enoch (which we can call the Enoch pattern), so that we can become the Enoch people – a generation that will not see death (spiritual death, eternal death, and maybe natural death).
Sadly, no one can be brought into the Christ pattern in Enoch (or the Enoch pattern) through a synagogue system. You can only be brought through the Tyrannus system, because preachers may teach about Enoch and ask people to emulate his life style but that does not bring any into the pattern.
WHAT BRINGS PEOPLE INTO THE PATTERN IS DEEPER THAN WHAT CAN BE TAUGHT.
It is a work of the Spirit in mantles and apostolic ministries with the divine approval to bring men into the pattern, and not every preacher has it.
You see, What the Bible says about Enoch is very limited. There are only three places in the Bible where he was mentioned. But what is hidden in those portions; what is hidden in the limited things the Bible says about Enoch is absolutely unlimited.
I tell you the truth, it will take eternity to unlock all.
But right here in time only preachers who are of the 3rd day of Christ can unlock what is hidden in the very limited things the Bible said about the man. You will need a Tyrannus system to come into the mysteries.
The synagogue system is the place where altars are raised, spirit husbands and wives are present in the lives of people, acclaimed poverty killers are present, star recovery prophets are on duty, native doctors operating as prophets, dishing out man made and Satan induce miracles, with the ignorant and gullible following and cheering in awe.
The synagogue system is a cesspool of error, false teachings, factual prophecies that flow from people who are having a false spirit and etc. But the Tyrannus system is different. It is a new wine skin for the new wine.
Friend, God sent this word to tell you to change systems in your Christian life if you truly want to fulfill your eternal and prophetic destiny. You have been in the synagogue system where He was, now He wants you in the Tyrannus system where He is.
I rest my case!
The Cry of the Holy Spirit on practical Christianity has been coming to us through the pages of the scriptures for 19 days today. It’s a 31-day journey that have been a blessing so far.
Today the LORD spoke to us about two systems in the Bible that Christians are presently trapped in, and why many lives have not been spiritual sound. He also guided us to the ultimate Heavenly pattern for the now- the Enoch pattern (or Christ’s pattern through Enoch).
I want to submit to us that practical Christianity has its prophetic aspect. The prophetic aspect is that we align with God’s kingdom system for our spiritual upbringing so we can come into His pattern for the now. The kingdom system is the Tyrannus system not the synagogue system that looks more religious, seductive and appealing.
The synagogue system looks all that because it is tailored around people’s earthly needs, the mundane and not the eternal. Buy the Tyrannus system is not.
It is my prayer that God will use these truths to add to the building blocks of our faith in Christ in Jesus precious name. Amen and amen.
MAKE THIS SCRIPTURE AN ADDITIONAL MEDITATION FOR THE DAY!
“By faith Enoch was taken away so that he did not see death, “and was not found, because God had taken him”; for before he was taken he had this testimony, that he pleased God.
But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.” Hebrews 11:5-8 NKJV
