This is that ...

On the day of Pentecost, the Holy Spirit came...
 
Many Jews were confused and marveled, “Whatever can this mean?”
 
Then Peter standing up raised his voice and began to speak. “These are not drunk as you suppose...but this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel...” (Acts 2:16)
 
This is that... is a resource to reveal, and give light to scripture...by comparing scripture to scripture. Only God can reveal God. Only His Spirit can “guide us into all truth.” (John 16:13)

When you act on God's Word it will illuminate your purpose and put a fire in your bones and a two-edged sword in your mouth!

What is it?
You and I were born into it.
It directs your life.
You and I cannot control it.
It is always now.
It moves forward.
It never goes backwards.

If allowed, it causes pressure now or in the future. The past is only memories. The future always remains to be seen. The majority of past decisions you or others have made were influenced by it. It controls the earth in seasons which produce food. Everyone makes their plans according to it. Animals are subject to its influence. Humans come and leave earth according to it.
 
God the Father set it in motion but is not subject to it and lives outside of all its boundaries. In all the world only one book is not subject to its restrictions but remains alive and current for each generation on the earth. Father has proclaimed: “I declare the latter end from the beginning…” (Isaiah 46:10)

All of God’s children experience a unique relationship with Him, apart from it.
 
It had no influence on Father when He chose you in Him before the foundation of the world. That is when you were predestined to be adopted. You were predestined to fulfill God’s plan according to it. According to His selected plan, you believed and were marked with a seal. The promised Holy Spirit is a deposit of your divine inheritance until all things reach their fulfillment according to it. By grace you were saved according to this. God prepared good works for you to fulfill beforehand. (See Ephesians 1 and 2.)
 
Your personal relationship with Father depends on your daily decision to rule over this, for if you do not control it, it will dominate and fragment your life, causing anxiety and even anger. That adds up to making bad decisions and a loss of the peace that Jesus desires us to have. 
 
Jesus submitted to it when He came to earth, fulfilling His Father’s plan.
He submitted to it when He said good-bye to His disciples, yet promised them He would send the Helper. His disciples prayed and waited in the upper room for the appointed blessing to occur. And Jesus will again submit Himself to it when He fulfills His promise to return and remove His Glorious Church from earth.
 
All end days scriptures and events written in the Old and New Testament are in subjection to it. One generation, in particular, is waiting for the fullness of it.
 
1948 – 2022
Watching For It

“So you also, when you see these things happening, know that the kingdom of God is near. Assuredly, I say to you, this generation will by no means pass away till all things take place. Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away. But take heed to yourselves, lest your hearts be weighed down with carousing, drunkenness, and cares of this life, and that Day come on you unexpectedly. For it will come as a snare on all those who dwell on the face of the whole earth. Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man.” (Luke 21:31-36)

“And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect’s sake those days will be shortened.” (Matthew 24:22)

 
“Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed—in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. So when this corruptible has put on incorruption, and this mortal has put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written: ‘Death is swallowed up in victory.’ ” (1 Corinthians 15:51-54)
 
Time Says:
*You can only live and experience life in this present moment.
*The past and the future are only thoughts.
*True freedom releases the mind to enjoy and live life fully, right now, in this moment, in this day.
*God has given you this day to enjoy it in Him.
*Jesus will return in the air according to Father’s time.
*Watch!

Two Trees
Now there is only one!

 
On a mountain top that overlooks the Pacific Ocean only one tree is left and that one just barely! The other tree has dried up and died. For many years “Two Trees” was a landmark for my city. What happened? A very slow decrease, year after year, of rain.
 
Two Trees
In God’s garden, He spoke to the earth to bring forth trees that yield fruit, “whose seed is in itself.” (Genesis 1:12) Later, He would speak to His son Adam not to eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for “in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die.” (Genesis 1:17)
 
The Freedom to Choose
You and I can only live in today.
Every day, Father gives us the choice to eat of the Life of Scripture, or to go with the flow of the world. Living life with Holy Spirit is a glorious joy that blossoms with anointed fruit. “Against such there is no law.” (Galatians 5:23) That fruit is a witness to the lost and suffering!
 
June 2022
The unsaved still have a choice to obey God and eat of the tree of life before the climactic event of the Church being removed from the earth.
 
Those who continually harden their hearts against God are becoming crazy! The definition of crazy is mentally deranged, especially as manifested in a wild or aggressive way. Well, they’re eating poison fruit. And so, “God gives them up.” (See Romans 1:18-32) 
 
The Powerful Ministry of Prayer
Yet there’s hope for the blind! You and I have an anointing of power to release those “whose minds the god of this world has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them.” (2 Corinthians 4:4)
 
Fruit of the Latter Rain: One Generation!
The early rain was the first Pentecost- Acts 2:1-21.
The latter rain began in1948 as Israel became a nation. The Pentecostal movement exploded in the1950’s, 60’s, and 70’s!
 
“Assuredly, I say to you, this generation will by no means pass away till all things take place.” (Luke 21:32)
 
“Therefore be patient, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, waiting patiently for it until it receives the early and latter rain. You also be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand.” (James 5:7-8)
 
“Be glad then, you children of Zion, And rejoice in the Lord your God; For He has given you the former rain faithfully, And He will cause the rain to come down for you—The former rain, And the latter rain in the first month.”  (Joel 2:23)
 
“Let us now fear the Lord our God, Who gives rain, both the former and the latter, in its season.” (Jeremiah 5:24)
 
“Let us know, Let us pursue the knowledge of the Lord. His going forth is established as the morning; He will come to us like the rain, Like the latter and former rain to the earth.” (Hosea 6:3)
 
“Ask the Lord for rain in the time of the latter rain. The Lord will make flashing clouds; He will give them showers of rain, Grass in the field for everyone.” (Zechariah 10:1)
 
So ask the Lord for rain!
Remember, dear Saint, you fulfilling your life’s call is dependant on what tree you eat from. The only tree that bears Kingdom fruit is from your Bible as it becomes life within your spirit to re-charge your anointing with power! Scripture is fruit “whose seed is in itself.”
 
“Two trees” in my city stands as a picture of life … without rain.
 
Keeping Your Tree Alive with Fruit
I remember Brother Copeland sharing that once a year experienced pilots do what is called “recurrent flight training” to stay sharp. One company on the internet says recurrent training “empowers you with unwavering calmness and composure needed for all situations, from the everyday to the unusual. We train you to stay sharp, fine tuned, and always prepared.”
 
After over 40 years of walking with the Lord, I still need recurrent training, especially during turbulent times…how about you?
 
I have written over 150 Bible Lessons on what I consider the two most important subjects of Scripture: 1. “Walking/living by Faith in the Word” and 2. Knowing “Who You are In Christ.” Since we are seated in heavenly places in Christ, like pilots, let’s sharpen our spiritual skills from Scripture. Suggestion: Prayer with Purpose Bible Studies.
Have fun!
Get a new notebook, take notes, look up scripture! Anointed prayers that change nations begin at the power station of studying with Holy Spirit.

That is the tree of life, the Kingdom of God!
