WHO SHALL ASCEND

Psalm 24:3-4  

Who may ascend into the hill of the LORD? Or who may stand in His holy place?  He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who has not lifted up his soul to an idol, nor sworn deceitfully.

He shall receive the blessing from the Lord and righteousness from the God of my salvation

What God is asking is the question of:

3) Who will [ascend] come higher; or allow oneself to be lifted up--ward to the place where the Lord our God is? To be elevated above level ground. To the place where God dwells, lives, moves; and exists through all times. He who was, is, and is to come; Jehovah [the existing one]. The question continues to be asked of whom should transcend [be or go beyond the range or limits of] where they are right now? Who will remain; rise up. To the dwelling of sanctity, reverence, sacredness, and a dwelling that is separated from uncleanliness. 

4) This individual must stand without fault, clear of guilt from shame caused by one's actions, blameless, innocent, and free. With a heart that is clean, clear, and sincere. This is the seat of the soul; mind, will, and emotions. Of understanding. Governed by clean thoughts and character that represent the mercy of God. One who has not raised, obtained, or continued with an offense. In himself, through the desires of one's flesh, and having an appetite for things that are unclean. And to the one who has not subjected himself to walk falsely in power that is unreal; empty and without worth. This is vanity. One who makes a promise or pledge of no kind. Meaning don't promise to do one thing and turn to another. By not walking in fraud by misrepresentation of the truth. By saying one thing and doing something completely opposite of what you said you were going to do. People deceive in order to swindle, trick, or fool. But these will not ascend [be lifted up in the spirit or able to enter in].

5) This person who follows after the ways of the most High will be given God's favor and protection. He will receive justifiable [reasonable] judgement. From Yeshua [Jesus Christ] who provides safety, prosperity, deliverance, and freedom. 

In a vision I saw people traveling on an elevated highway, and I heard the Lord say, "I want to lift you up and take you higher than you have been before. As you move and stay in this elevated place, it will soon become your new normal. And, from this high place, you will be able to see and understand things that have been beyond your comprehension in times past. Prepare yourself for spiritual elevation." Isaiah 49:11 I will make each of My mountains a road, and My highways shall be elevated.

Paradigm Shift - 1) an important change that happens when the usual way of thinking about or doing something is replaced by a new and different way (Merriam Webster) 2) a time when the usual and accepted way of doing or thinking about something changes completely

In a vision I also saw an ancient scribe seated at a table with quill in hand. There was a light shining through the only window in the room. He was focused and wholly given to the task at hand as he was very careful to write only what the Lord was giving him. It was a word of encouragement from God to His people to not give up, but to stand fast in truth, power and anointing, and to live in Christ continually.  And, I heard the Lord say, "I am doing a deep and profound inner work in My people that will produce purity of heart and life in the Spirit." 

I come today with instructions to tell you to

Position yourself for a new beginning that will follow the changes over the last months that have brought you to a place of order and in alignment with My plans and purposes.  Yield at this time to the moving of My Spirit as I bring you out of a spiritual desert.  And, trust Me with your life, your purpose and destiny, says the Lord.  You are embarking on a new day!  Psalm 118:24 This is the day the Lord has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.

The shift has already begun. What you thought you knew will not carry you through this new season, but what God is bestowing upon you is hidden from the enemies view. That you may complete what the Lord (in this season) has assigned to you.

Be sensitive to the Holy Spirit. Ignite change to come. Pierce through the places of darkness with the spirit that lives within. Be not afraid of the terror that comes by night. Settle your spirit. Be one with God. For He will overthrow the plans of the enemy that come out against you.

There's a lot happening in the spirit right now. A MAJOR shift is under-weigh. Some feel the pressures and take them as judgement's or the result of belief that they went off course and they're traveling the wrong way. But this [for many] not so; this time around.

For the Lord is only re-positioning His people to step into their next season of trust, truth, and responsibility. This will be a time when many will learn to trust completely on Him. Where integrity will take a front seat. And an alignment of new assignments will be positioned just where the Lord would have you to be.

Meanwhile, and until the shift has run it's course, be encouraged. And find your resting place in the arms of the Most High. Trust that God has it all in control.

Jesus was a part of an paradiagm shift. In fact He played the greatest role of all in one. A move derived during His transition from the cross to the throne.

Transitioned for a GREAT MOVE OF GOD to take place in His life.

Simply put this transition placed Him where He needed to be, sitting on the right hand of the Father,  but what I liked most about the transition of Jesus ministry; of His life is that He knew how to prepare for the shift. He knew there was still before his departure work to be done and that he needed to train men to train men that is labor would continue on even after he was gone.

Jesus prepared for the Paradiagm Shift.

Wherever He went there his disciples followed, but they followed because Jesus had a strategy that was effective

He had a mission to accomplish. Winning souls for the Lord.

When Jesus saw Andrew and his brother Simon what were the FIRST words out if His mouth to them; as noted in scripture?

He said to them, "Come let me make you fishers of men"

Jesus was on a mission. He knew His time of departure would soon draw nigh, and there was MUCH work that needed to be done before that time finally arrived.

But Jesus was an intelligent man. He also knew very well that because He was the Son of God, Yes, He probably could have won LOTS of souls doing the work alone, BUT because of His intellect He decided to become more effective and win MORE souls to God He had to build a team.

A team of leaders who would follow after Christ teachings, take note of the strategies that He used, and be willing enough to put in the necessary work themselves for the sake of outreach; going into the hedges and highways to compell the people to come.

The disciples even knew the importance of training for paradiagm shift.

How does one normally remember to do something of importance? Through the process of memorization. Through the process of memorization. Some things come natural to some people but then to others if it just wasn't a part of their lives growing up or it's of no importance to them in the least bit then its just not gone stick with them.

What does this have to do with the word nag?

Simply put when you want someone to do something and they give you the excuse over and over again that I forgot, then you would nag or in other words constantly remind them about doing it.

Jesus went from city to city teaching, healing, and performing miracles so much that people began to talk about what He and his team of disciples were doing to the point that people would travel just to hear or be in the presence of His glory.

You shall not be afraid of the terror by night,

Nor of the arrow that flies by day,

6 Nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness,

Nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday.

7 A thousand may fall at your side,

And ten thousand at your right hand;

But it shall not come near you.

8 Only with your eyes shall you look,

And see the reward of the wicked.

9 Because you have made the Lord, who is my refuge,

Even the Most High, your dwelling place,

10 No evil shall befall you,

Nor shall any plague come near your dwelling;

Be not afraid Joshua's

Be not afraid Esther's

Be not afraid Deborah's

Be not afraid Anna's

Be not afraid Elijah and Elisha's

Be not afraid Disciples

Be not afraid people of the Most High God
