Pulled out of the Pit
QUESTION: Are you following Christ out of the pit and into the Kingdom? OR are you clinging (unknowingly or knowingly) to the sides of the pit by remaining in sin and unbelief?
Isaiah 1:18-20 Come now, and let us reason together,” says the Lord, Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; Though they are red like crimson, They shall be as wool. If you are willing and obedient, You shall eat the good of the land; But if you refuse and rebel, You shall be devoured by the sword”; For the mouth of the Lord has spoken
25-26 I will turn My hand against you, And thoroughly purge away your dross, And take away all your alloy. I will restore your judges as at the first, And your counselors as at the beginning. Afterward you shall be called the city of righteousness, the faithful city.
The Kingdom of Righteousness is now being established in the earth. This is how it’s occurring…
The Kingdom starts as a mustard seed and grows. Matthew 13:31-33 It grows from within out. Luke 17:21 Because it’s NOW being established, we NOW have the power and grace of Christ moving IN US pulling us out of the pit and purging us from all corruption; IF we embrace Him, the truth, Word of God. Rev 19:13, 1 Peter 1:13, Isaiah 26:12
Isaiah 40:5 The glory of the LORD shall be revealed, And all flesh shall see it together; For the mouth of the LORD has spoken.
Christ’s spirit IN us transitioning us into the sons/daughters of God is His glory being revealed because this transformation was the purpose of Him entering the flesh and into death. Thus, as Christ’s glory is manifested, those who are truly of God are revealed for His presence in them will become undeniable. John 6:45, Romans 8:18-19
As Christ’s kingdom is established, people are either being pulled out of the pit or clinging to it by remaining in sin. If we cling to it, all will perish for this world of wickedness is passing away. 1 Corin 3:13-15 We will be “burned” by the righteousness of Christ’s spirit as He usurps the wickedness and establishes righteousness. 2 Thess 1:7-8 The spirit of God is the fire to consume the earth. “For our God is a consuming fire.” Hebrews 12:29
Known by Their Fruit
Being pulled out of the pit and into the Kingdom means we are growing in unity with the spirit of wisdom, Christ’s Spirit, speaking to us from within on how to live in righteousness and pure honoring love. As we follow His lead by His power in us, the corruption/sin (anger, bitterness, hypocritical love, judging spirit, lust of eyes/flesh, idols, false images, unbelief, etc.) is purged from our lives. If we aren’t following; it’s not being purged. According to our hearts being changed or not, each one of us is witnessing either increasing good fruit or bad fruit in our lives. Luke 6:44, Proverbs 11:18-19
Proverbs 11:3-5 The integrity of the upright will guide them, But the perversity of the unfaithful will destroy them. Riches do not profit in the day of wrath, But righteousness delivers from death. The righteousness of the blameless will direct his way aright, But the wicked will fall by his own wickedness.
The path we’ve really chosen, despite our professions and religions, is becoming more apparent as our fruit reveals our choice. Until now, the wheat and tares looked similar as the glory of Christ hadn’t been manifested in people’s souls. But as He starts to rise in our hearts, those sowing unity with His spirit will experience increasing peace, love, joy, rest, wisdom, understanding, prosperity, protection, and healing. Those not following His Spirit will experience increasing angst from abiding in the pit of darkness; unrest, suffering, pain, affliction, and hardship. These difficulties serve to turn souls from the paths of death to the paths of life to become renewed unto eternal life. Matthew 13:28-30
Growing Division
This separation caused by the Spirit of Christ will cause a great division in this earth. This division causes the kingdom of darkness to fall; for a kingdom divided can’t stand. As evil’s reign has made ALL a slave to sin; righteousness’ reign will make ALL a slave to righteous love. Isaiah 26:9 , 1 Corinthians 15:22 Christ will reign, until He puts an end to all powers contrary to Him. 1 Corin 15:22-26 It’s a reign within our hearts because that is where the fruit of this earth is produced. Everything starts from within, thus this is were restoration begins and ends.
This earth and all that it is, is being transformed by the souls transitioning into sons/daughters of light. This earth is what it is because of the souls that live in it. Change the souls; change the earth. Change the souls by changing the power of the air from Satan to Christ. Ephesians 2:2
What fruit your heart is producing signifies which way you are headed. If it is in the wrong direction; now is the time to seek the will of God and start following His spirit of wisdom leading you from within in the paths of peace and the purest of love.

Hi Rachel, this is an interesting subject. The more one draws to the Lord, the more the world seams to be colapsing. When speaking of the Spirit, even one’s own faimily thinks we have fallen from the Lord. This may be the first presidentual election that I take no part in. For one canidate follows a false prophet & the other stands for queers & dead babies. This is not depression but fact speaking, for I know whom I have put my faith & trust. I suppose this is the part off, “many will knock but few will enter.” E.W.

Yes, I know exactly what you mean. The world will not accept the things of the SPIRIT – for these things become more and more separate from the teachings of men. I too am avoiding this election – and instead will look to our Father in Heaven to rule this creation in perfect righteousness. Growing peace to you.

Hi Eldon — it’s true … as you draw near to God and He leads you out of this pit .. you’ll feel more and more detached from the world. Strange you love those in it more, but feel more detached from all that is of it.

Bible prophecy has Damascus top of the named list to be a ruinous heap.
Isaiah 17:1
The burden of Damascus. Behold, Damascus is taken away from being a city, and it shall be a ruinous heap.
sadly,i think it really means Damascus will be a ruinous heap.
who do you think is the country is in the Prophecy of Daniel 8?
and
who/what country is living with daughter babylon in Micah
and
and what people are standing wondering why anything bad should happen to them,in Jeremiah?
could the 3 answers all be the same Country?

(NKJV) Zechariah 10:1 Ask the LORD for rain in the time of the latter rain. The LORD will make flashing clouds; He will give them showers of rain, Grass in the field for everyone.
September 12, 2012 at 4:54 pm
Anonymous….theres a few very different ‘pits’ we have to worry about the one the prisoners are in with no water,..Zechariah 9 v11,…or wait for that Rain in Zech 10.
ohhh,..and before that,.. many will have to worry about the prisoners that get out of the other ‘pit’
September 12, 2012 at 7:24 pm
Worry is a sin. Whatsoever is not of faith is sin.
September 13, 2012 at 3:23 am
whats that verse about a gnat?
hmmm,..ok,..i rephrase,i dont want you worrying,
many will believe the lie,and eat the dainty meat of the prisoners that get out of the other ‘pit’
September 13, 2012 at 8:26 am
Ye sought me because you ate the bread of Life and were filled. Labor not for the bread that perisheth, but for the bread that endureth unto eternal life.
September 13, 2012 at 2:10 pm
if you are reading Zechariah and the Books around it,..you’ll only find meat thats hard to swallow,and harder to disgest,….remember what Paul wrote,…meat for the stomach,…and the stomach for Meat.
saying that, if youve eyes to see,..you’ll find hidden manna,…make that if ears to hear,you will hear it!…beautiful hidden manna, for the soul

All who ever came before Me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them.
September 13, 2012 at 6:03 pm
Anonymous,..what does this verse mean,..what is The Shepherd saying to the sheep for them to hear and see?
John 5:43
43 I have come in My Father’s Name, and you do not accept Me; …but if someone else comes in his own name, you will accept him.
September 13, 2012 at 7:44 pm
It means, there is only one who ever came, purely representing the Father, is one with Him, and has completely pure motives. He was only and solely representing the Father, but men prefer someone who represents a group, an agenda, or a political faction. Jesus was able to divest Himself of these motives, and only represent the will of His Father.
September 13, 2012 at 8:31 pm
i totally agree with the first have of your reply.
but lets scrape the last bit a little more on the surface, and the,
‘”but if someone else comes in his own name, you will accept him”
was He hinting or warning the ‘sheep’ that an actual someone will come,..even with a group,..say, of angels,..and they would accept him!
September 13, 2012 at 8:56 pm
He may have been hinting at the ‘lawless one’ that you have referred to in your writings. But in that sense he isn’t warning the sheep, but the Jews. Which brings us back to –a faction, or a group. His sheep don’t represent a group, but a Heavenly Kingdom. My kingdom isn’t from hence, else would my servants fight. They are not Jews who are one outwardly, but the circumcision is of the heart. These are the Children of Abraham, and to thy seed, which is Christ. The Jews are looking for an outward kingdom. In the same way- that they asked God for a king, and God gave them Saul, and then David. It was never God’s Will for them to have a King.

well who He was talking to and what it was He was talking about,..its something we all have to discern
a time of testing is coming,…we need to consider all possible deceptions,..and did that statement relate to it!
whether you like it,..or have read it,..a false one is coming,..and if possible he would fool the elect,..we have got to consider that ,..especially if your not one of the elect!
and
Id disagree,..every word The Shepherd of Israel spoke was to His sheep,.and as Written,thats to who He was SENT,..(you change that if you like)….
He was collecting different groups then and different groups now,..you need to listen hard sometimes!…to The King of Israel.
Rev 11
15 The seventh angel blew his trumpet. There arose loud voices in Heaven and they were saying, “The kingship of the world now belongs to our Lord and to his Christ, and he shall be king for timeless ages!”
anyone of course can come into His Kingdom,..but you have to drink from the One cup
1 Corinthians 10:4
And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.
2 Cor11
22 Are they Hebrews? so am I. Are they Israelites? so am I. Are they the seed of Abraham? so am I.
1 Samuel 12
12 And when ye saw that Nahash the king of the children of Ammon came against you, ye said unto me, Nay; but a king shall reign over us: when the Lord your God was your King.
But you are very mistaken if you dont think that God Almighty Will will be done, here,..and that He, The Messiah, Son and Appointed King,..of His Fathers Kingdom
15 The seventh angel blew his trumpet. There arose loud voices in Heaven and they were saying, “The kingship of the world now belongs to Our Lord and to His Messiah, and He shall be king for timeless ages!”

God’s never asked me to run His business, and He never asked me to worry about it.
September 14, 2012 at 6:27 pm
God Almighty has appointed His Only Son to ‘run His business’….
do you do the things He does ask you to do?
September 14, 2012 at 6:29 pm
No, I always turn away.
September 14, 2012 at 7:30 pm
to the left or to the right?
September 15, 2012 at 10:17 am
To the light. Turn to the Light, lest ye become blind.

E.W. here, —Rachel may I pass on what the Lord has given me on the subject?
Jesus was walking on the Ulai river &called to Gabrie, whom was standing on the bank of the river, & said, “make this man understand the vision.” Gabrie said,”understand, O son of man that the vision (IS FOR) the time of the end.”
The Almighty gave a phisical teaching for Daniel’s time. Medes & Persians was a two-ruling-faction/horns that stood before (water is peoples, tribes nations,tongues) all people of the known world.
In the time of Jesus’ fulfillment, The fourth living creature/angel for God’s purpose/Rome/two legs of iron.
The ten toes, partly iron & partly clay/ten barbaric tribes that made the Roman empire, of which three can no longer be found anywhere in the world/seven world-dominat-nations of western Europe are the setting stage for the TIME of the END
The same as Israel, Babylon, the Medes & Persians, Greece, and Rome God taught the ten toes of His ways & His great power. However, ALL have chosen a form of godliness while deyning the power thereof. ALL prefur to follow the crowing of men.
The one horn goat from the west, crossing the face of the whole earth, WITHOUT TOUCHING THE GROUND/spirit/the world-leader-of decepsion in God’s Word, “he did as he pleased and magnified himself”—“then the he-goat magnified himself exceedingly; but when he was strong the great horn was broken/1789 General Birtheir locked him away in Valance, south France, where he died that same year.General Birthier said, “the Roman empire is finished forever” However, “the great horn was broken, and instead of it there came up four conspicuous horns toward the four winds of heaven”/Churchill, Rosevelt, Muzzilie & Stalin. “Out of one of them came forth a little horn”/1929, God had given time for the world to repent, “But he wouldnot”
The little horn/109 acres, the smallest nation in the world, grew exceedingly great toward the south, toward the east and toward the glorious land. It grew great, even to the host of heaven; and some of the host of the stars it cast down to the ground/in Daniel’s time, Jesus told us of the war in heaven; today, men say the world-leader-of-deception has power to excomunicate angels from heaven.
COMING EVENTS: “the continual burnt offering”/oppurtunity to learn from the Holy Spirit “was taken away from him and the place of his sanctuary was overthrown. and the host”/all that are not in Jesus church of lead by the Spirit of God “was given over to it together with the continual burnt offering(those following the perceived intelligence of their mind/”MY Spirit will not always dwell with man”) through transgression; and truth was cast down to the ground and the horn acted and prospered”
September 15, 2012 at 2:40 pm
You didn’t say who the little nation is that you referred to .
