The Bride(STILL in Days of Acceleration)

We as the Bride of Christ are coming into seasons

 of preparation;

specific spiritual things that must be laid upon us

 

in order for us to be presented to The King

 

 

The spiritual Bath Mikveh-The bridal “Shower,” so to speak, is not of the uncleanness of the person, but truly about us encountering and experiencing the Power of The Holy. There are places in which the Word of God prescribes immersions, not only for women, but also for men into these "Spiritual Baths." We must also understand that these are no longer ritualistic performances that have set ways in which we must do them. For we have passed over from those things that are Natural, into a Spiritual realm, even though we ourselves are still natural beings.

Here are some prescriptions that were given in The Old Testament for the Spiritual Bath. 

The scribe who works on a Torah scroll or(the believer who finds himself studying in the Word of God), must first immerse himself before writing God's name(we can say there must come a time of JUST reading The Word before we write out anything we want to study). ALL Converts are required to immerse themselves in the mikveh, marking their rebirth as members of the people of Israel(Baptism which makes us The Spiritual Israel as paul states when he declares circumcision is of the HEART and not the outer flesh). Also, some men and women, in preparation to become "dead" to past sins and begin the year with a pure heart, immersing themselves in this “Spiritual Bath.”

Now, a Spiritual Bath, or the mikveh as the Jews say, is a physical enactment, and a private transforming moment. A mikveh is any body of mayim hayim, literally, "living water,"(Jer2:13). So then, with this given, I would search out verses that have the Words "Living Water," in them, and see what The Lord says your Spiritual Bath is to be for this coming year.

Esther(a secret, hidden amongst the myrtle trees) prepared herself with months of treatments before she was presented to the King, calling for a time of sacrifice with prayer and fasting. It is through this that The King attended to her cry, the decree was changed, and the enemy’s plots exposed.

We are coming into specific seasons, where pieces of the Book of Esther will begin to unfold and release prophetic movements into The Body of Christ, Now! The Lord is preparing Modern Day Mordecai’s who have God’s heart, a spirit of adoption, to prepare Esther, (the Bride of Christ) “for such a time as this.”
The Holy Spirit has been searching for who will be chosen by the King, those of us who sense the “pleasure of the Lord” and where this presence rests. for we are still in “Days of Acceleration,” and we must move when we sense the Momentum of God moving. Prophetic Govt’s must be released in the times of our corporate worship to sense where the Lord is going, and what we are to do once we get there (this does not mean the pastor taking or assuming all 5 offices. We can no longer have just one finger that points, but we need every finger, every office in a different person to form a HAND in order to grasp what The Lord is doing). This must happen, in order for the Church to move forward with the momentum of the Lord through these “Days of Acceleration.” For there are specific things we must do in order to be propelled forward.This will release the Holy Spirit’s fresh oil upon our works, words, and giftedness, speeding up open doors that have been closed and bringing closure to things of the past. God’s presence will release favor upon chosen vessels, and the purposes of God will accelerate at a rapid speed.
