On Earth as it is in Heaven

I am sorry that I have not been posting to
this email for a while, but I am back now. There will be a testimony on the
webpage in a few day on what has been going on in my life lately. Now I am on my
way to where YH wants me.
I need to share with you something that the Lord placed on my heart about 2
years ago and it has be manifesting every since. I am doing a teaching on the
Lord's Prayer that came to a finish Saturday night this past weekend. You know
He will give you something for the future and then allow it to come to its
fullness over a period of time by meditation, prayer, and other scriptures in
order for the fullness to be received. Well that is what has happened to the
following.
"On Earth as it is in Heaven" I have been looking at that passage for
a lengthy period of time. "On Earth as it is in Heaven", "On
Earth as it is in Heaven". Think about it. Let it dwell in your body, mind,
soul and spirit. Meditate on that. "On Earth as it is in Heaven"! What
does that really mean, On Earth as it is in Heaven!
This morning I was asking Renee my wife if you were in Heaven, would you be sick
in Heaven? "No", she answered! Would you be broke? "No", she
answered, etc.....
Is there anything that we would not have in heaven? No! It is all been taking
care of. So why on earth do we suffer? Why are we broke? Why do we get sick? The
reason in Heaven there is none of that is, they know the Word (Torah, The
Scriptures). It is known inside and out up there. It has been with them since
the beginning of time. They know their rights, they know no less. But the
Scripture says "On Earth as it is in Heaven"!
The Father has shown me that we should live on Earth as they do in heaven. It is
a mirror image of what we are suppose to do on earth. It is in Heaven First,
then on Earth. It started there in Heaven, and then needs to manisfest on earth.
But the catch to this, you have to be open to receive what He has for you on
Earth as He does in Heaven. And The Word (Bible) is the answer. The Word and the
reading of the Word is incredible. In Psalms 1 it says "How blessed are
those who reject the advice of the wicked, don't stand on the way of sinners or
sit where scoffers sit! Their DELIGHT is in YHVH's Torah;(Remember Torah means
the whole Word (Bible), not just the first five books of the Bible) on His torah
they meditate on it day and night! They are like trees planted by streams-they
bear their fruit in season, their leaves never wither, EVERYTHING they do
succeeds!!!!!!
You know that is incredible, to succeed in everything you do. This is referring
to health, wealth, your ministry, your business, your church, witnessing,
friends, everything imaginable. Read the Word. Meditate on it. For those of you
that don't know. Meditation is not necessarily reading the Word constantly. What
it is is getting a scripture and allowing it to go over and over in your mind
and get all the revelatory knowledge that YH has for you to receive from that
scripture. Write that down, then find another scripture to meditate on. Yes, do
read the Word. Don't just read a few scriptures a day or night. Read several
chapters or maybe even books. Get it in you. I know people that can read a thick
novel in one night. Think about reading as much in the Bible as they did in a
novel. You may not understand it all, but it gets into your spirit, and the more
you read it the more you will understand it. There is life in the Word.
Monday of this week, I was pouring out water and the Lord spoke to me and had me
ask a question to a gentleman that was sitting in our store. The question was
simple, "Do you have a personal relationship with the Lord Jesus the
Christ? The answer was "I think I do". I asked him how he knew. He
said " I talk to God, I have read the bible from time to time but I don't
understand it." And at that time my phone rang and I had to go answer it.
But before I left him, I said the answer to the question I asked you is, No!You
don't know Him. Then I left.
Now let me explain something, it seemed rude for me to witness to this person
then go and answer a phone. Well after thinking about what I did, I felt the
Lord showed me what I did was correct to answer the phone. He needed a moment to
sit and think about the answer I gave Him.
When I finally got back to him, he said " You kind of left me
hanging!" What I heard in the spirit was, You left me hear in a fear that I
didn't know Jesus. So he asked me "How do I know that he doesn't know
Jesus. I said, " To know Jesus who is the Word, you need to know the Word.
And if you only read His Word from time to time and then didn't understand the
Word, then you don't know Jesus". You can't know Jesus (YHshua) if you
don't know His Word. It is impossible for you to know the fullness of Him
without the reading and knowing of the Word. So I left him thinking. Hopefully
more to come on that.
So "On Earth as it is in Heaven" is the answer to our problems. Learn
and Read the Word. Meditate on it day and night. Asked the Father to show you
how to have On Earth as it is in Heaven. And have a Blessed time doing it.
BE Blessed!

P.S. Doing your Sunday school lessons or Bible Studies is not reading amd
meditating on the Word day and night, everyday. Those are added additions.
