THE WAY WHERE. PART 2

John 14:6 “Jesus said unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man comes unto the Father, but by me.”

God began to reveal Himself to the Jewish Nation by manifestations into the sense realm which had taken control over man’s life. Spiritual fellowship was impossible because man was spiritually dead due to Adam’s transgression. When Jesus came, He revealed something brand new to the men and women of the fleshly sense realm who surrounded Him. He talked and fellowshipped with Almighty God, the God of the Jews, with a sense of intimacy that they couldn’t even begin to fathom. Ultimately He called their Jehovah God, His Father!

I encourage you to go back to “The Way Where, Part 1” and read it again until you get this truth cemented deep within you. When Paul and others referred to Christians in the Book of Acts, they weren’t known as Christians, or Pentecostals, or followers of the Messiah. They were recognized as members of a movement called “the way.” Check out the 5 Scriptures referenced in Part 1.

This movement was called “The Way” because their Master, Jesus, called Himself “the Way” and everyone knew exactly what He meant! Hebrews 10:8 begins to clear up the matter as Paul writes “…the Holy Spirit indicating this, that the way into the Holiest of All was not yet made manifest while the first tabernacle was still standing.” God’s Presence had been separated from man. Not only had the Relationship between God and man been terminated, but because of man’s sin nature, God could no longer fellowship with His precious creation in the manner in which He longed for.

If we piece together the Gospel accounts of the last moments of Jesus on the Cross, we can narrow the events to these…

Mark 15: 37-38 “And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost. And the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom.”

1) He said “It is finished!”
2) He bowed His head and gave up the ghost
3) The Temple veil was torn in two from the top to the bottom.

I believe that God does not waste His Words. The phrase “It is finished!” followed by His death, and the veil being torn in two are all tied together. Jesus’ loving actions immediately followed His Words. When He spoke those words, and gave up His life, the power behind those Words moved the Holy Spirit into action and He tore, or caused the veil to tear, thereby removing that which hindered God and man from fellowshipping together.

The Holy of Holies was now open to anyone and everyone whom the Blood of Jesus would cleanse. What does this mean for us today? Way back in time, Adam lost the way. Jesus came to point out that He was the reinstatement of the Way! Hebrews 10: 19 “Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus, By a new and living way, which he has consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh.”

God is no longer alone separated from you! He can be approached and He desires for you to approach Him. You can meet with God; speak to God; listen to Him speak to you; receive His wisdom; receive His ability, His power and His authority!

Jesus said in John 14:23 “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word (Walk in obedience); and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him.”

He is no longer in the Holy of Holies; the sin problem has been settled; the separation has been healed by Jesus, “The Way!” Now God says, “I want to come and make My Home with you!”

The very sad news is this: The great majority of the people who will be reading this teaching have spent little or no time alone with Him. This is what “The Way” has secured for us; Eternal Access into the Presence of The Father, and it has already begun. I’m not talking about you shouting out your requests and making your troubles and problems known to Him.

I’m talking about entering into His gates with Thanksgiving

I'm talking about shutting down our senses and fastening our minds on Him with Praise as we enter His Courts.

I’m talking about entering into His Presence, by virtue of “The Way” and speaking not a single word while awaiting His fresh Breath (Acts 3:19), His faith generating Word (Romans 10:17), and the impartation of His Ability, Energy and Strength.

Isaiah 40:31 “But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.”

When is the last time you entered His Presence and lay prostate before Him, with your mouth shut, and your spirit hungry to hear from Him? God is waiting for you to enter into His Presence and commune with Him through the mercies of the Shed Blood of Jesus! Wont’ you spend sometime with Him today and everyday? He is waiting for you!
