Bearing His Reproach

For you that read my blogs God bless you greatly I am not a teacher nor a preacher I am only sharing with you the very things I battle with every day , yes I am repetitious in my blogs but practice makes perfection .  James says this word has the power to save our souls .  And this is what it is all about  putting to death my old carnal man and fitting myself for the garments of salvation .`

 I had a dream a some time back I dreamed I was walking down a path a well beaten path when I came upon a group of people gathered around two men fighting , and it was a very violent fight    The hitting was powerful and taking its toll . A man came up to me and leaned over and said this is two brothers fighting I took that to mean blood brothers were fighting . I was taken back and said to my self two brothers fighting each other how can this be.   I have brothers myself and I love them no matter what .  As I watched with bewilderment at the two brothers fighting.  There was one that kept his back to me the whole time and he was a well dressed man his hair was combed neatly and he was very good at fighting. The other brother was not kept well , he was haggard and tired but something kept him fighting . The brother that was neatly dressed would punch the other with great precision striking blows to the head with great force.  He had the brother down several times and he would cry out but continue getting up and trying to fight .  When the brother with his back to me he struck the brother in the forehead and his eyes popped out of his head and rolled around on his cheeks yet he continued on. He would stand up and his eyes would go back into their sockets .  He was very weary and tired but he would not stop . The brother with his back to me was very proficient at striking blows and the other brother could not hit him.  They fought around the area and than they came to a white utility trailer parked near by. They fought up to the trailer and than upon the trailer . The brother with his back to me hit the other in the forehead hard and his eyes popped out again and he went down to his knees and groaned . When a person watching the fight jumped upon the trailer between the two and looked at the man on his knees , with  his eyes were on his cheeks  . He said man what are you doing do you not realize you could be killed with this beating.  And the man on his knees with his eyes hanging on his cheeks he looked in the mans direction and said loudly . THAT'S WHAT IT IS ALL ABOUT THE FIGHT !  I want to say that in all of this dream it was in color and it was very late in the evening the sun was setting . We are in the last days friends not much time to work the day is almost over. The blows to the head is the word of God as in   Rom 12:2 ASV - And be not fashioned according to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, and ye may prove what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God.  The word of God is what transforms your mind God takes us from this worldly way of thinking and transforms us into children of light.  If we confess this word and believe     The white utility trailer , white is righteousness and the trailer is an object to carry heavy burdens that a man is incapable of .      Surrendering to Jesus letting him take our burdens   he is our righteousness


  1Jo 1:5 ASV - And this is the message which we have heard from him and announce unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
1Jo 2:8 ASV - Again, a new commandment write I unto you, which thing is true in him and in you; because the darkness is passing away, and the true light already shineth.

I prayed many months for the interpretation of this dream what it meant Lord.  And than one day as I was reading in   1Jo 2:15 ASV - Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
1Jo 2:16 ASV - For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the vain glory of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.
1Jo 2:17 ASV - And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.
Than it came to me the proficient fighter the brother who fought with great skill was Jesus and the one who fought hard but had no skill was myself .  And Jesus is my blood brother in the spirit and his love for me is without understanding .  Jhn 1:12 ASV - But as many as received him, to them gave he the right to become children of God, even to them that believe on his name:
Jhn 1:13 ASV - who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.       No more bound to this earth by my fathers blood the flesh of Adam

I have been walking with God for fifty years now I have fallen and he was always there to pick me up.  The well beaten path was a long time ago when I was young in the Lord and he showed me a vision of him and I walking,  it was a beautiful place trees and grassy slopes . And than we came to a place on the path it had a fork in the path one went left and one went right I continued on to the left and Jesus stop and watched me travel on.   Thirty yeas later I found myself back at that very spot the fork in the path . And there stood Jesus he never left he just waited for me to return . I took his hand and we went to the right .  I know Godly sorrow in my life daily and I have known worldly sorrow in my life .  Pro 18:24 ASV - He that maketh many friends doeth it to his own destruction; But there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.   The cross is what this dream was about dyeing to my fleshly mind putting to death this old carnal man in me .   THAT'S WHAT IT IS ALL ABOUT THE FIGHT !   Your flesh does not want to die it wants to live and enjoy the works of the earth and its working death in you.  Even Jesus when he hung upon the cross in the last moments of his life he cried out Father why hast thou forsaken me , being alone in the garden he cried out father if this cup be not for me take it away but not my will be but yours be done and he sweat great drops of blood .     Moses and Elijah on the mount,  Matt 17  when Jesus was with his disciples and it says they were speaking   to Jesus . My words to stay the course . He is no stranger to your infirmity's  and trials he was a man like you and I .   Yet he had no sin he was the spotless lamb of God                           

The Lamb of God slain for the sins of the world he is our Passover !
 We have an altar to fall upon and be saved its our cross    Heb 13:11 ASV - For the bodies of those beasts whose blood is brought into the holy place by the high priest as an offering for sin, are burned without the camp.
Heb 13:12 ASV - Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people through his own blood, suffered without the gate.
Heb 13:13 ASV - Let us therefore go forth unto him without the camp, bearing his reproach.
Heb 13:14 ASV - For we have not here an abiding city, but we seek after the city which is to come.
Heb 13:15 ASV - Through him then let us offer up a sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of lips which make confession to his name.

 Flesh and blood shall not inherit the kingdom of God . The kingdom of God is not meat nor drink but Righteous Peace and Joy its not about feeding our flesh it about feeding our new man our soul .  And now the mystery has been
reveled to us gentiles .        Col 1:25 ASV - whereof I was made a minister, according to the dispensation of God which was given me to you-ward, to fulfil the word of God,
Col 1:26 ASV - even the mystery which hath been hid for ages and generations: but now hath it been manifested to his saints,
Col 1:27 ASV - to whom God was pleased to make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:  This glory is to some day stand before the king of righteousness clothed in the wedding garments and not be ashamed at his coming .    Mat 10:37 ASV - He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.
Mat 10:38 ASV - And he that doth not take his cross and follow after me, is not worthy of me.

Rev 19:7 ASV - Let us rejoice and be exceeding glad, and let us give the glory unto him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.
Rev 19:8 ASV - And it was given unto her that she should array herself in fine linen, bright and pure: for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints.
Rev 19:9 ASV - And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they that are bidden to the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are true words of God.
Rev 16:15 ASV - (Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walked naked, and they see his shame.)
