Pure Glory

by Apostle Gabriel Cross

Sometimes you simply need to take a heaven break and think on his GOODNESS…Selah.

God is examining our hearts in this season, make sure you seek the Lord for yourself “wholeheartedly.” The Glory of the Lord is purifying our motives for why we do what we do.

“Be still, and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth!” Psalm 46:10

Be still, desist (cease from doing something), cease striving, be weak, let go, surrender, die to yourself and your desire to control the outcome and know, learn, recognize and understand that I am God. I am in control and I am trustworthy. I will be exalted and honored among the nations! I will be exalted and honored in the earth!  Surrender and honor God!

Fairbanks, Alaska has been a place where the wind does not blow and the air is still. Change, however, is upon Fairbanks and the winds are blowing.  Dead trees are toppling and unproductive branches fall to the ground.  It is impossible to remain unchanged by the wind. The sound of  the wind whistles in the ears. Listen to the wind. The wind is fanning fires that devour the forest and blow smoke into the city.

Winds of change are blowing. It is no longer business as usual. No longer can you say, this is a place where the wind does not blow. Great change is upon you. The expected is no longer seen nor can it be relied upon. Receive the unexpected “suddenly.” Suddenly, the disciples in the Upper Room heard the sound like a mighty rushing wind and flames as of fire appeared, upon their heads. Wind and fire go together. Accept the winds of the Holy Spirit and the accompanying fire.

This is a new season and God’s breath is blowing upon you.  Fire comes with the winds to burn the old and cannot be controlled by men. His wind is making internal changes to you. It is carrying you into a new place that requires new ways of thinking and relating. Listen to the wind of  the Holy Spirit, as it shapes you into Yeshua’s image. Rest and rejoice, as the winds fan the flames that change you! Embrace the winds.

Extensive yard work has been going on in my yard and included trees being cut down. Although I liked the trees, they did not allow anything else to grow. A number of stumps remained. Someone came to me and offered to grind the stumps.  The stump roots were really deep. The first grinding exposed deeper roots.  My intention was to chop them out with an axe. Instead the man returned a second time and ground out the roots. This exposed more hidden roots. The man went back a third time and pulverized the remaining roots.

Although my yard looked like a bombshell had hit it, the roots have all been removed. This is a prophetic picture of how God is cutting roots out of my life that have prevented me from fulfilling all of my destiny. The process of root removal hurts but it brings freedom. The three times that the man returned to remove all the roots is significant. It represents God the Father, Jesus the Son and the Holy Spirit, all working in my life to remove what the enemy planted for sabotage. I have been upset with the surface things but God is removing all the roots.  I had been unable to remove the roots myself and needed God to do his work. Now the yard (my life) is ready to produce new life because it is more fertile.

We must be patient as we allow, the Father through Yeshua and his Spirit, to remove the roots in our lives. This healing and deliverance results in fertility and fruitfulness in our lives.

God has redeemed us and is redeeming our wrongs, rights, health, finances, and our very lives.

Redeem means to buy or pay off; clear by payment: to discharge or fulfill; to obtain the release or restoration of, as from captivity, by paying a ransom. Redeem and ransom both mean to buy back. Redeem is wider in its application than ransom, and means to buy back; To ransom is to redeem a person from captivity by paying a stipulated price, or to redeem from sin by sacrifice: to ransom a kidnapped child. free, liberate, rescue, save. To pay off; To set free; rescue or ransom. To save from a state of sinfulness and its consequences.

To restore the honor, worth, or reputation of: Yeshua did and is in the process of doing all this for you.

If your life or situation seems like it’s dying, let it die so that the Father can RESURRECT it!

by Apostle Gabriel Cross

When you say, you TRUST God with someone or something, you give up your rights to them or it. We only take things back from God, when we do not TRUST him. Father, grace us to TRUST you more.

by Apostle Gabriel Cross

Don’t dress for where you are at, dress for where you’re going. Don’t live for tomorrow, live for today. Don’t make excuses for desiring more and better, pursue more and better on purpose. God gave you Life to Live and enjoy not just to exist.
