Ps.91.1 - He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

 

Psalm 91 presents the world as a battle ground where various evils occur. The passage mentions about the “terror by night“,”arrow that flieth by night“, “pestilence“, and “destruction“. Woe to him that walks about with blindness in such a terrible place. Apostle Paul described the situation as a war with evil spiritual forces of darkness-“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places” (Eph.6:12).

 

In those ancient times, cities or nations used to have fortresses or towers. These were places of safety. They  were characterized by thick walls and high raised portions on the wall wherein a watchman would stand to observe and alert people in case of any approaching danger.

In case of danger and you were outside the gates, you would run into the fortress for your protection. As a Born Again child of God you also need to live in the fortress of God’s Word. This world is dark and our true protection lies in the revelation of God’s counsel for our life.

Dare to come to the secret place of the Most high and do not leave the secret place but dwell there. Your safety and protection in this wicked and crooked generation is not guaranteed if you do not dwell in the secret place. The maintenance of your ignorance about the battle of life gives the devil an advantage over your life. We need to understand the rules of engagement and know how to wage war in this life. This world is not fair and you would never get what you deserve, you must fight and be schooled in the journey of life. The secret place is where God dwells, coming to church is not the same as being in the secret place, the secret place of the Most High must be understood and it must be the quest of every believer to dwell there. 

 

The Old Testament Temple had the outer court where everyone could get access to and come and offer their sacrifices, meet friends and pay their tithes and offerings, I call this level one and the lowest level. At this level, you can meet everyone including Satan and all his cohorts. This level represent our body, everyone has access to your body including the devil .You can not wage war from your body, that is with your own strength, you will fail!  The Holy Place was limited to some people, only the high priest could go there. At the Holy place was  the lamp with seven branches which must burn and give light continually, the show bread was also at this level, and I call it level two. This is the soulish realm of humanity. This realm is the realm of intellectual power and capacity, this realm is the realm of understanding, what we read and understand. Do not forget, we have been told by the scripture that we are the temple of God, which is a prototype of the Old Testament temple. We may think we are very powerful at the soulish realm until we come to the Holy of Holiest, level three and the highest realm of life. This is the realm of the spiritual where the Presence of God dwells. Always remember that the Presence of God is not in your body, neither your soulish realm but in the realms of the spirit. Many christians have not arrived at this level  of spiritual growth and development. The devil can not access this realm where the Presence of God dwells. In your body and soulish realm, the devil will attack you and overcome you. You need to lift up your battles from the body and soulish realm to the realms of the Devine,  the place of the Presence which is called the SECRET PLACE. There  is strength and vitality in the secret place, there is joy in the secret place, there is peace in the secret place, there is knowledge in the secret place. In the secret place everything is possible. This is the realms of the prophetic where you command and it becomes a reality, you speak from the place of authority far above all principalities and dominions. My assignment is to take you from the realm of the flesh( body), carnality, fear, timidity, sin, hatred, selfishness, jealousy, anger, pain to the realms of the PRESENCE. This is where your safety is guaranteed. You do not have safety just because you go to church, dare to come to the presence of the Most High. This is where we get access to the angelic hosts and living creatures, this is where real fellowship takes place. In the realms of the PRESENCE, there is no time, there is no age, the is no lack, there is no darkness and there is no light, God Himself is the light.

 

Can you imagine what many  Christians are losing because they  have not come to the place of His Presence? Just going to church on Sundays does not guarantee your safety, be watchful and pray, fast, eat the word of God, spend time with God and dare to come to His presence. Do not just build your body with six pack and beautify your skin and leave your spirit with malnutrition and growth retardation. In the Presence, you do not need a stage light, God Himself is the light. This message is coming from the PRESENCE, am enjoying the fellowship of the Spirit, our fellowship with God does not happen in our mind but our spirit. Stay tune as I take you from the first realm into the third realm of fellowship.

May you never lack the Presence, may you be empowered to rise to the place of the presence in Jesus name.
