WORKING TOWARD AN ENCOUNTER.
I want to show you how to gain assurance of immortality in this mortal body. You need to press on in prayer, to press on in spirit until you have this particular encounter that I am about to share with you.
I am not challenging the eternal life of your spirit. It is there. You are born again. Jesus has given you eternal life in your spirit. But the Father is much happier when we have eternal life in our bodies. Peter revealed to us how eternal life can be transmitted to the human body, how not to die, how to receive the assurance of eternal life for the human body.
“Knowing that I must soon put off this tent, as our Lord Jesus Christ has shown me.” 2 Peter 1:14
God showed me that this revelation went beyond the days when Jesus lived on Earth. Peter had another revelation after Jesus’ departure. And this is an encounter beyond Jesus in the human body. It is an encounter with Christ after the ascension. Peter had an extraordinary encounter in which he met Jesus face-to-face, and Jesus gave him the assurance that this is how he would leave the earth. He knew it because it was a vision of Jesus. And unless you have a vision of the Lord to receive immortality, it may never come.
Immortality is received in the realm of visions. Immortality is received in the realm of encounters. And that is why our ministry is about to propel men and women into the realm of ascension and encounters.
Everyone who has received Christ can have an encounter. It depends on your hunger and your deep-rootedness in the instructions of the Holy Spirit. Encounters are not limited to a few individuals.
“A vision appeared to Paul in the night: a man of Macedonia stood and pleaded with him, saying, ‘Come over to Macedonia and help us.’ After he had seen the vision, we immediately endeavored to go to Macedonia, concluding that the Lord had called us to preach the Gospel to them.” Acts 16:9-10
Thus, the body can be quickened; the body can be revitalized. But it is through the ministry of the Holy Spirit that your body can be revitalized. But before that happens, the first thing is that you must have a vision of Jesus. And secondly, you must receive a word from the Lord Himself.
“He who has My commandments and keeps them, it is he who loves Me. And he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and manifest Myself to him.” John 14:21
Anyone can choose to love Him, and anyone can receive the manifestation of Christ. This is the manifestation of Christ that you lambano (seize, grasp) over immortality. If the one you have is the Jesus of the Bible, the Jesus of the letter, it will not give you immortality until you see the Jesus of the Bible face-to-face. And what is it? Christianity should have been an entirely different matter. Christianity is not about correct doctrines and religious activities.
“All Scripture is given by inspiration of God and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.” 2 Timothy 3:16
The same word is useful for rebuke, profitable for correction with righteousness. But beyond the studied word, it is the encounter with the Living Word. And when you want to have an encounter with Christ, if you are diligent in observing the Lord’s instructions, He will manifest Himself to you. In this vision of Jesus, you cannot die anyway. No.
The man who meets Jesus face-to-face does not die; it is impossible, especially now, for this season is a season of immortality. I said that no one sees Jesus and remains the same. Advance, push day and night. You will be rewarded with immortality. You will be rewarded with the manifestation of Christ. Expect to see visions of Jesus.
Pay the necessary price to encounter Christ. The moment you meet Christ, everything will change. Your Christian life will change. Your faith will change. Your convictions will change…
