PRAYERS AND MEDITATION – OF WHAT USE?
Reading and interpreting from the eighty-second book of Psalms. The Spirit reveals an eternal gathering of elohims (gods) it what we fondly call the church in this present world. This is the gathering of God that has been before this world came into existence, and through it the things whether visible or invisible are created and maintained. In this age, we also call this gathering the body of Christ, the temple of God not made with hands. This is the only gathering where the eternal God can be found; it represents the powerhouse of creation.
Unknown to many, all men of all backgrounds, be it race, tribe, religion, sex etc. are part of this divine gathering of elohims. Many are not aware because they are in a deep state of sleep also likened to death. To stimulate and provoke an awakening in slumbering man, the eternal Spirit within thunders, saying you are god’s: offspring of the Highest, creatures of Himself, but you die like mere mortals because you lack knowledge. God has pronounced this, and He cannot lie: ye are god’s, not born of flesh and blood whose origin is from eternity. The LORD says to my Lord, you must remember this truth and therefore arise from your sleep and ascend to your place upon the everlastings hills. Almighty one, loosen your poor, needy and miserable self from the chains of mortality and death. Arise, stand up, sit and reign of king of glory.
Your prayer and meditation is designed to keep you in sync with this knowledge of divinity within you. In a dead world of forgetfulness where there is absolutely no knowledge, prayers and meditation keep you in remembrance of the son of God that you are. Prayers and meditation is your anchor to life in the invisible, way beyond the comprehension of the natural mind.
The Spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak. The flesh mind is extremely weak and dull in its comprehension and ability to remember truth. Giving way to the weak human flesh lead’s man down the wide steep path into death and destruction where there is absolutely no conscious knowledge of God. In this pitiable state the soul feels itself as orphaned (fatherless) and bears the sensation of an opposition to anything God. This is called death, the sense of infinite separation from the life of God. Sin goes hand in hand with death, it is unbelief that you are the one from above, Christ the son Highest. To varying proportions all men have tasted this sense of unbelief and separation from God. Prayer, mediation, fasting, listening and every excellent work in the Lord is designed to lift you up into the knowledge of Him, and to keep you in remembrance.
We take an example of the man Jesus who also experienced the weakness of the human flesh. He often went out from among men to be alone in prayers. This he had to do because among men we only hear the rantings of the dead; there is absolutely no knowledge of God in this present age, this implies to all the systems of men be it religious or otherwise. In one example Jesus set out to pray upon a high isolated mountain. Shortly before embarking on a three days journey for prayers, in a symbolic gesture he says not everyone standing here will taste death before they see the son of man coming in his Kingdom. To see the son of man coming in his kingdom is to experience the beauty of the life of Christ the son of God. Christ is your life that has been hidden underneath the weak corruptible clay vessel you put on in this material world. Your prayers is that I may know Him, that I may see Him, that I may experience Him, that I may know my try Identity. This is the part of the famous Lord’s prayer that says: “thine kingdom come”.
Jesus’s voyage into the quiet for prayer and meditation was for one thing; “that I may know the glorious son of God in whom is invested the totality of the God head”. In prayers and in meditation he will ask just one thing, “Father glorify me with yourself with the glory I had before this world was”. This is the matured and perfect mindset of those who seek glory. While on the mountain top in fervent prayers, He transfigured and was seen by his three disciples in a somewhat allegorical form. They were seeing what Jesus was experiencing as he prayed. Jesus was experiencing that elevated state of son of God in the congregation (the clouds of witnesses) of the almighty. The Eulogy we read from the eighty-second book of Psalms is heard again said; “This is my beloved Son: hear him”, You are god(s), son(s) of the Most High. This experience is the coming or unveiling of the Christ in you. The hope of your glorification in God is realizing the Christ within you; along with this realization every other thing is added because all power in heaven and earth is given over to you. Realizing this experience is your peace, joy, rest, power and gift of eternal life that can never be taken away from you.
Do not pray like the Gentiles who ask amiss, pray rather to experience the beauty of the true creation of God, aspire to experience the liberty, power and joy associated with rediscovering your pure Christ image in God. Pray to experience resurrection in Him and to maintain yourself in this knowledge forever.
