GOD'S SPIRIT REVERSES CURSES IN OUR DAILY LIVING

The river of Life is clearly the Spirit of God.
John 7:37-39 In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus
stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and
drink. (38) He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath
said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.
(39) (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on
him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that
Jesus was not yet glorified.)
Isaiah 44:3 For I will pour water upon him that is thirsty, and
floods upon the dry ground: I will pour my spirit upon thy seed, and my
blessing upon thine offspring:
Last week we showed Revelation 22:1’s river of living water was something the Spirit and Bride said to come and drink now.
Revelation 22:1 And he shewed me a pure river of water of life,
clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.
Revelation 22:17 And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let
him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And
whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.
We must allow the Spirit of God to work in our lives.
Romans 8:1-2 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which
are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the
Spirit. (2) For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ
Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
The Spirit has a LAW associated with it.
• A certain way in which it works.
Romans 8:3-5 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak
through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful
flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: (4) That
the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not
after the flesh, but after the Spirit. (5) For they that
are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are
after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.
So there is a distinction between walking after flesh or after Spirit
when it comes to the answer for victory over sinful living.
Our minds must be directed in such a way as to allow the Spirit to work.
Romans 8:5 For they that are after the flesh do mind the things
of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the
Spirit.
• This shows us that the Spirit does not force anything on us.
• We have to CHOOSE to have it work, and understand how He works and work with Him.
1 Timothy 1:5 Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a
pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned:
The END is the PURPOSE or GOAL.
• The commandment and law was intended to instill love, good conscience and true faith in us.
• But Law could not do that.
Romans 8:3-4 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak
through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful
flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: (4) That
the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not
after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
So Jesus came to make a way for the SAME GOAL OF THE LAW to be accomplished with us by another means…. HIS SPIRIT.
So, the very thing the Law tried to do but couldn’t is accomplished by GRACE of God through HIS SPIRIT.
1 Timothy 1:14 And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
Romans 6:11-14 Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead
indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our
Lord. (12) Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body,
that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof. (13) Neither
yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but
yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and
your members as instruments of righteousness unto God. (14)
For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law,
but under grace.
Our mortal bodies do not have to be restricted from the righteous living god desires in us.
We yield to God.
• You choose to do His will.
• Choose think in the way He recommends.
Yield yourself as well as YOUR BODY.
And the Spirit will work in you.
This is learning to WALK IN THE SPIRIT!
• WALK IN THE RIVER OF LIFE!
“The curse is reversed.” ARARAT
• Adam left the Kingdom and left the river of life and tree of life.
• Jesus is new Adam.
• Reverses the picture.
• Goes to the throne by cherubims and four beasts that blocked Adam out.
• A green rainbow of life is there.
• He sits on the throne and pours out the river of SPIRIT KINGDOM POWER.
• Makes saints kings and priests.
It reverses curses in your life.
• Anything from the fall of Adam in your life.
At the END OF EZEKIEL… like END OF REVELATION:
Ezekiel 47:3-5 And when the man that had the line in his hand
went forth eastward, he measured a thousand cubits, and he brought me
through the waters; the waters were to the ankles. (4)
Again he measured a thousand, and brought me through the waters; the
waters were to the knees. Again he measured a thousand, and brought me
through; the waters were to the loins. (5) Afterward he
measured a thousand; and it was a river that I could not pass over: for
the waters were risen, waters to swim in, a river that could not be
passed over.
Ankles, knees, loins.
Psalms BEGINS where Ezekiel and Revelation END.
Psalms 1:1-3 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel
of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the
seat of the scornful. (2) But his delight is in the law of
the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.
(3) And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water,
that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not
wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.
(Recall the TREE OF LIFE by the river with LEAVES AND FRUIT)
People are called trees!
Isaiah 61:3 To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto
them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of
praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of
righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified.
Psalms 92:12-15 The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree:
he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon. (13) Those that be
planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the courts of our
God. (14) They shall still bring forth fruit in old age;
they shall be fat and flourishing; (15) To shew that the
LORD is upright: he is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.
WALK with Ankles
STAND with knees
SIT with loins
Let Spirit river touch all these parts of your life and the CURSES of
ungodly counsel, way of sinners, seat of scornful will be destroyed in
your life.
• You will be like a tree planted by water.
• Leaves and fruit.
• Leaves heal and fruit feeds.
The SEED in the fruit of life reproduces that FRUIT after its kind.
The seed is the WORD OF GOD going into the GOOD SOIL OF A GOOD HEART.
• The Holy Spirit is the power of the KINGDOM and is a CURSE-REVERSING power!
