025/365 CULTIVATING KINGDOM HEART
Jeremiah 4:3-4
For thus saith the LORD to the men of Judah and Jerusalem, Break up your fallow ground, and sow not among thorns. Circumcise yourselves to the LORD, and take away the foreskins of your heart, ye men of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem: lest my fury come forth like fire, and burn that none can quench it, because of the evil of your doings. AKJV
God speaks to the people of Judah (Praise) and Jerusalem (Peacemakers) - meaning, these "people" usually have this problem:
i. Unbroken grounds, sowing weeds
ii. Ministering with the foreskin of life
1. We all, are born with fallow grounds. Our first and natural birth is the fallow ground, uncultivated that needs breaking. Our real life still is hid in Christ with God.
Colossians 3:3-4
For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.
There's still a real life that everyone must pursue. It isn't over. We aren't through yet. You need to uncover your real life. For they're three which walk together - YOUR SELF, TRUE SELF and REAL SELF.
Examples Gideon, Virgin Mary - Judges 6:12-14, Luke 1:26-33, etc
Your real self appears only after you die! Read V3 of Col 3. There are about 18 kinds of death, I once taught, maybe I'll teach again. Each of them equivalent to others. No need to drop physically dead! No
HYMN
🎶 Have you been to Jesus for Cleansing power are you washed in the blood of the Lamb? 🎶
That's how to break up your fallow ground - by getting to Jesus!
2. The second challenge is the fronting spirit - life of the foreskin. God said, "Jacob I have loved, Esau I have hated", because Esau is the life of foreskin - of the flesh, uncircumcised.
Now, if this life of foreskins is not circumcised, removed, terminated or pruned off, every effort to be "REAL" will always be aborted.
Here is the conclusion of the whole matter, especially for those in God's service - Lev 10:1-3
"And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took either of them his censer, and put fire therein, and put incense thereon, and offered strange fire before the LORD, which he commanded them not. And there went out fire from the LORD, and devoured them, and they died before the LORD. Then Moses said unto Aaron, This is it that the LORD spake, saying, I will be sanctified in them that come nigh me, and before all the people I will be glorified. And Aaron held his peace." AKJV
There's a FIRE awaiting all those who ignore this warning, not to come serving God with unbroken spirit or uncircumcised heart. O yes, fire!!!
