“Glory to the Precious name of our Lord Jesus Christ”

Psalms 26: 6, 7 I will wash my hands in innocence; so, I will go about Your altar, O Lord,

That I may proclaim with the voice of thanksgiving and tell of all Your wondrous works.

May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen

Hallelujah

The Altar being made holy

My dear brothers and sisters in Christ, in the portion of the Bible that we meditated upon day before yesterday for our Lord Jesus Christ to dwell within us when he arises, his temple in heaven is opened. When his temple is opened, we meditated that from within it smoke rises.

From where that smoke is rising is from our soul. This is because the great Babylonian harlot will keep our soul as her great city (as a city of harlot). How this happens is that – the world is only (Babylon), that desires of the world, lusts of the world, sin, and infatuations such many kinds of desires will be growing in our soul every day and will keep on increasing. Instead of Christ’s words growing and increasing worldly infatuations will be increasing. We will be stuck and will be struggling in many desirable worldly pleasures. As they increase and increase in our lives peace will be lost continually. We will not be aware of how we can receive that peace and we will be afraid. When such things happen, God makes the wind to blow from four directions. In the book of prophet Daniel, we meditated regarding this wind few days back. The wind was stirring up the Great Sea. That sea is our soul which is wicked (our soul which is stuck with many desires). We meditated that when the wind stirs the Sea, four kind of great beasts coming up.

Then we meditated that thrones were put in place there and regarding the throne of our Father God and the throne of the Lamb and the thrones of the twenty-four elders. We also meditated regarding what kind of people were those who ministered to Him and those who stood before Him for judgement.

My dear people, when we read this it would be good if we think about what we meditated few weeks back. 

The court was seated, and the books were opened. That book is each one of us.

Daniel 7: 11 “I watched then because of the sound of the pompous words which the horn (authority) was speaking; I watched till the beast was slain, and its body destroyed and given to the burning flame.

That beast is the dragon (the Babylonian harlot). This is the night vision that was given to prophet Daniel.

Daniel 7: 13, 14 “I was watching in the night visions, and behold, one like the Son of Man, coming with the clouds of heaven! He came to the Ancient of Days, and they brought Him near before Him.

Then to Him was given dominion and glory and a kingdom, that all peoples, nations, and languages should serve Him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and His kingdom the one which shall not be destroyed.

This kingdom is God’s kingdom. It is being established within us. For this God destroyed the body of the great Babylonian harlot (dragon) and when he gives it to the burning flame; from there smoke is rising. This smoke is rising forever. This is because our God who is cleansing us and making us holy every day is doing this in everybody’s soul mainly in the souls of those who have submitted themselves to God with their whole mind.

That is what in Patmos island God is revealing to John to make it known to his servants.

God did not do this for the Old Testament people. God is telling Daniel that shut up the words and seal the book until the time of the end. That is what, it is said that the Lion of the tribe of Judah is worthy to open the book and took the scroll out of Him who sat on the throne. That book is each one of us. The one who is worthy to open this book is our Lord Jesus Christ. Only he can break the seal in our heart and can open the door of our heart. From the heart, which is our soul this above-mentioned smoke arises.

In this manner, our Lord Jesus Christ opens our heart, which is the book, and tests and examines all the things that are within in us and breaks us one by one from all worldly fellowship and unites us together along with Christ and for reigning in us Christ manifests as our altar and only then he gives a salvation to our soul. After that, there should be an end to our world. If any worldly pleasures, desires, infatuations, lusts, desire for things all these are in our soul it is written that we are naked. This is what in Revelation 16: 15 “Behold, I am coming as a thief. Blessed is he who watches, and keeps his garments, lest he walk naked and they see his shame.” This is what God in Mount Sinai (Christ) the Israelites should have garments washed in blood and upon the altar nakedness should not be seen and is showing this as a pattern and telling us and each one of us must know this. Let us all submit ourselves to safeguard our altar with holiness in this manner. Let us pray.

May the Lord bless you all abundantly.
