Be Free!
“The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.” (John 3:8)
This verse is out of the very familiar passage in John where Nicodemus comes to Jesus at night and the discussion centers on the new birth. John 3:16 is probably known by most people whether believers or not. And, whether believers or not, most understand he is declaring himself Savior and the absolute need to be ‘born again’ through him to enter into eternal life.
But, there is much more than that, for Jesus speaks of ‘seeing’ the ‘kingdom of God’, and the reality that we cannot ‘see’ the Kingdom which is Spirit unless we are born ‘of’ the Spirit’.
This ‘seeing’ of the Kingdom is NOT merely what happens when we die here and find ourselves before the proverbial ‘pearly gates’ as religion insists. The Kingdom of God is HERE, and is NOW. It is the REALM of the KING Who is PRESENT. The consistent ‘good news’ or ‘gospel’ preached by Jesus and his disciples was the Kingdom of God is at hand. But, it takes the Spirit to reveal it for the Kingdom is OF the Spirit.
The Kingdom of God is advancing in powerful ways as believers of all nations, tribes, tongues, races, ages, embrace their true identity in Christ as ‘sons’ of his Kingdom. As more and more of the Church grabs hold of the reality of God’s Kingdom here and now, there is an increasing manifestation of Kingdom authority and power being released. It has already begun. It is a major part in the release of the Sound of Heaven upon the earth.
The Lord says, “I AM the God of Freedom. I AM the God of Glorious Liberty. I AM unlike all others, for I do not seek to control you; but, to liberate you. MY Blood, My Word, My Spirit all set you free, irrevocably free. These three, My Blood, Word, and Spirit bear witness to the fullness of My Liberating Love.”
“But, you have not walked in this freedom, for you have allowed religion to shackle you to a yoke of slavery. It declares My Blood for the forgiveness of sin; it declares My Word to be the True Word; it declares My Spirit abiding in you. BUT, it DENIES the TRUTH of what is declared. The spirit of religion forces upon you a form of godliness; but, it denies the power for it has no power. No power except what you allow; no authority except what you give it. And, once granted, it only enslaves.”
“NO MORE,” says the Lord, “For My Bride shall not be shackled, My Bride shall not be enslaved. I AM calling you forth, Beloved. I AM calling you to sing your Song, the Song of Deliverance, the Song of Freedom. Let the Sound of Heaven within you rise up to join in the Sound of My Voice blowing like a mighty wind upon the land. COME FORTH NOW.”
“Rise up and join with Me, Beloved. For this alignment with My Voice; this merging of our Sound, our Song, will bring true liberation to all creation.”
The Lord says, “You are LOOSED. Every shackle has been removed, every chain has been broken. Therefore, Beloved, walk out your freedom. Do not allow any yoke of slavery to be placed upon you. You are LOOSED.”
“You will walk unhindered in these days. You will walk unrestricted and unbound; like the wind you will move freely. Disease and poverty shall not throw their nets of death over you. You shall not fall into the pits they dig for you, or be trapped in the snares laid along your path.”
“But, you shall speak to the mountains and they SHALL move from your path. You shall speak to the storms and they SHALL be stilled. You shall say to the sick, ‘Be healed’,; to those tormented by demons, ‘Be loosed’; to those wrapped in death’s embraced, ‘Come forth-live’; to those wandering the land as orphans, ‘Come, come home’. And, it SHALL be done at the sound of your voice. Immediately, as you speak it, so shall it be.”
“For you have come into agreement with Me. You have aligned your Song with Mine. Therefore; Arise, Daughter of Zion; for, I have destined you to do great and glorious things in My Name. You ARE LOOSED, now move forward freely. You are free, now go set others free. You are Liberated, now go Liberate. You are MORE THAN CONQUERORS, now go take possession of the MORE, take the land long bound and bring it into your glorious freedom.”
“I call you forth now, in My Name, to proclaim freedom to the prisoners, give sight to the blind, and release the oppressed from all burdens. I call you forth in My Name, the Name given Me by My Father, the Name above every name; so that every knee shall bow IN FREEDOM, and every tongue will confess FREELY, JOYFULLY, I AM SAVIOR, I AM LORD, I AM KING, and My Kingdom has come.”
“REJOICE! A Great Harvest is at hand! REJOICE! Let your Praise be heard throughout the land. Now, is the Day of Liberation, the Day of Freedom. REJOICE!”
