Charlie just sent Cheryl and I a word that he recorded on his Rumble channel “School of Bass, Treble & Troubled Prophets, Vol 4”. I will set up the prophetic word with the following verses from Janes 1:2-8 (ESV)
“Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, 3 for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. 4 And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing. 5 If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him. 6 But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind. 7 For that person must not suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; 8 he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.
The Apostle Paul penned a similar thought in Romans 8:18-19 (ESV)
For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us. 19 For the creation waits with eager longing for the revealing of the sons of God.
Now, the word:
“We (that is Cheryl, I and Cornerstone) are now qualified to go to that next level in God where there is a treasure waiting for us. It will be poured out on us unmeasured. We will give, give give materially, spiritually, compassionately whatever. We will give, give give.” (This was a “suddenly” moment when the Spirit of God came upon Charlie as he was worshipping).
We must be able to break through into the anointing because it is the anointing that breaks the yoke of bondage. We will need the most powerful anointing of power to break people from the severe bondages they are under. That is why worship will be so necessary because this powerful anointing comes upon us during times of worship. Whatever is weighing you down, that anointing will break the power of that burden. What will be removed will be the burden of man.
Worship removes all the defilement we receive from this world. It removes all the flesh that weighs us down. Once we’re washed and cleansed, we’re then free to go into His presence and commune with Him. Perhaps the greatest example of this is Moses who God called “His friend”. Moses used to go into the “tent of meeting” to commune with God. Here Moses communed with him not just face to face but mount to mouth, Numbers 12:8 (ESV)
“With him I speak mouth to mouth, clearly, and not in riddles, and he beholds the form of the Lord.”
One concept that the early church was taught was the fact that we are now that “tent of meeting”. We don’t have to go somewhere to worship. We can worship right where are because the glory and presence of God exists in each one of us. 2 Corinthians 4:7-11 (ESV)
“But we have this treasure in jars of clay, to show that the surpassing power belongs to God and not to us. 8 We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair;9 persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed;10 always carrying in the body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be manifested in our bodies. 11 For we who live are always being given over to death for Jesus' sake, so that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our mortal flesh.”
Two elements that lead us to that place of intimacy are thanksgiving and praise. King David, the worshipping king said this in Psalm 100 (ESV)
“Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth! 2 Serve the Lord with gladness! Come into his presence with singing! 3 Know that the Lord, he is God! It is he who made us, and we are his;
we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. 4 Enter his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise! Give thanks to him; bless his name! 5 For the Lord is good; his steadfast love endures forever, and his faithfulness to all generations.”
As the Lord brings us into this new area of maturity and freedom, lets continue to worship Him through thanksgiving and praise. The result will be a great move of God and an anointing so powerful; the most difficult yokes will be smashed. Come, Lord Jesus.
