Paul Keith and Chris Reed A Supernatural Encounter with the Spirit of Reverential Awe

hello everyone uh paul keith davis here with another word for the moment video blog i have a special guest with me again today chris reed pastor christopher from peru indiana welcome chris thank you paul keith it's good to see you good to be here with you again today awesome thank you for that well you know we did a um a blog a little over a week ago or an interview really and um the lord kind of took it an entirely different direction than the way we had originally intended but it went wonderfully we had wonderful responses from people i've gotten a lot of private messages from folks that were so blessed and wanted more and so we uh we're gonna do that today uh chris had a pretty phenomenal supernatural experience with the spirit of reverential awe i don't know if there's can be anything right now more meaty in the church in a manifestation a release and impartation and empowering of the spirit of reverential law the fear of the lord and uh so really without any further ado i just wanted chris to start out sharing his encounter and from there we'll talk more about the seven full spirit of god or the seven lamps of fire the seven spirits of god and the seven horns and the seven's eyes which are all in the book of revelation but chris i just want to turn it over to you and take your liberty and share your encounter as as broadly as you'd like to well thank you yeah so that was a very profound encounter that i had it was actually uh two weeks ago this past uh sunday when i've had it so i think it was on the 29th of november was when i had the encounter of 2020. and i just been doing a lot of a lot more praying and digging in and and fasting and just seeking the face of the lord and i had quite an encounter i i was believe it or not i wasn't in prayer you know as far as kneeling down and praying but i was actually uh raking leaves uh believe it or not and um but you know when when you understand that god walks with us that his presence is with us all the time he's not limited um he's very real he's ever we in him we live and move and have our being as we know but um so i'm i i was actually i've been teaching on um friday nights at our church here in peru indiana on the seven spirits of god and um i've never really did a series or taught on this before but um i was just out raking leaves and i instantly you know i was praying just kind of praying to the lord under my breath praying in the spirit and i was just caught up in a vision um just as real and profound as me looking at you it was an open vision i was caught up in the spirit and being caught up in the spirit the best way that i can describe this is i it was just like a realm of glory there were i remember there were just various colors of lights just in in in the room or the space where i was very bright very just a holy feeling and i saw standing in front of me an angel a red and white he had a blue haze around him and the thing about it is i didn't notice too much about his facial features other than the eyes the eyes the best way i can describe it they were just piercing just like with fire piercing could look through your soul and you just stood there looking at me and of course i'm i'm realizing oh my goodness i'm in a spiritual experience and i'm standing there probably 10 feet you know in my mind just you know that that that distance or so and he looks at me and he goes like this with his index finger he points me to come here and he steps out of the way and there is a door on the other side of this you know space of glory that i'm in with all these bright lights and i walk up to this door and i open the door and walk in and it was like i left the glory atmosphere and walked into a library the best way i can describe it i shut the door behind me i didn't see any angels at that point i didn't see it was literally like walking into a library and if you you know of course if you've ever been in a library you know that you'll see sections of books and bookcases and libraries and they'll have a heading up above the bookcase it'll say perhaps you know fiction or non-fiction or whatever whatever the the type of book that it is and um i i saw this one i mean there were several bookcases but i saw this one that was just highlighted to me and there was a tag written above it which said the supernatural so i walked over to it and the book that caught my eye was like none of the other ones didn't exist i know they did but this one was just zeroed out to me and um this book was was in the bookcase and of course you know how like on the binding of of a book uh there is the title well i i grabbed this thick book and the binding on on the book said the seven spirits of god wow so i took the book out and um on the front cover of the book was written the spirit of the lord which of course these and i'll just tell you ahead of time since then the out of isaiah 11 and 2 it actually articulates uh what i believe the seven spirits of god and really there's no other place in scripture that specifically mentions the seven spirits of god by name but it's a prophecy 700 plus years before christ and i'll just read it quickly for context but isaiah 11 and 1 there shall come forth a wrought out of the stem of jesse at branch a grow out of his roots in isaiah 11 verse 2 the spirit of the lord shall rest upon him the spirit of wisdom and understanding the spirit of counsel and might the spirit of knowledge and the fear of the lord and so on the front cover it said the spirit of the lord well i opened up the front cover and inside of the book were five white pages but they were thick pages i mean it's you know it was almost like it was a book in itself within each page and i turned the the first uh page over i'm sorry the cover over and and i saw you know the spirit of uh wisdom and then i saw the spirit of understanding and i and i flipped through each one counsel the spirit of might the spirit of knowledge and then i flipped i took the book and i flipped it over and on the back cover it said the spirit of the fear of the lord and i looked i glanced up and i was just thinking about what i was seeing in the vision and i looked back down and something interesting had happened the back cover which had the spirit of the fear of the lord on it or the reverential awe was ripped off it was still on top of the book but you could tell the binding had been ripped off and it just puzzled me and i so i grabbed the ripped off back cover that said the spirit of the fear of the lord and when i did i'm holding the book in my left hand the other five pages of the book just fell out onto the floor so all i'm holding is in my right hand the spirit of the fear of the lord cover and then the other one with my left hand which i was holding the whole book in which the front cover said the spirit of the lord and i heard a voice speak behind me i believe it was the angel of the fear of the lord spoke behind me and said what you are seeing is a representation of what is happening in the church when the spirit of the fear of the lord is lost or taken away or ripped out then you lose the spirit of might which is of course miracles signs and wonders you lose the spirit of understanding which is of course revelation knowledge insight into the scripture you lose the spirit of knowledge which is you know words of knowledge um you know and and the spirit of wisdom and all you have left holding in your hand is the front cover which is the spirit of the lord now when i say that i want to make sure that no one thinks i'm in no way taking away from the first of the seven sevenfold spirit which is the spirit of the lord but i understood what the angel meant because most spirit-filled or charismatic pentecostal meetings you go into you really don't see very often the spirit of might you know signs wonders and miracles on on display you don't see uh always revelatory understanding and you don't see words of knowledge words of wisdom on regular display but here's what you will find is you'll hear it said this way wow we feel the spirit of the lord here we feel the presence of the lord here and so when you take away the fear of the lord or the reverential awe then you lose all of the other spirits of the lord or the sevenfold spirit of god knowledge wisdom you know might or power understanding and all you're left with is an atmosphere or a feeling right um and i i re so when i experienced that i came out of the vision i i this point you know i'm i'm weeping because i'm realizing more and more revelation is coming to me you know so much of the and i'll share this quickly but so much of the demonstrations of the spirit of god in these various veins of his spirit or the seven-fold spirit will not happen and even scripturally it is tied to the fear of the lord for instance proverbs says the fear of the lord is the beginning of wisdom there's one of the other spirits wisdom is one of the seven spirits of god the another verse the fear of the lord is the beginning of knowledge there's another one of the spirits um and then you know even angelic activity being restored to the church and experienced by the church is tied to the fear of the lord i believe it's psalms 34 says the angel of the lord encamps round about those who fear him who fear the lord and then in acts chapter 5 i had read an interesting verse that really just you know the scripture talks about many signs and wonders were done by the hands of the apostles the sick were healed peter's shadow walking by was healing and healing people and it actually said and great fear came upon all of the believers and many signs and wonders and miracles were done by the hands of the apostles so here you see the spirit of might the spirit of knowledge the spirit of wisdom the spirit of understanding all of these things are tied to the spirit of the fear of the lord and when it's missing all of the other is missing as well and all you're left with is feeling a spirit and i'll say one more thing that that i that came to me when i was having this spiritual encounter this vision caught up in the heavenly realm something else that really stood out to me was this anytime the fear of the lord is lacking then satan always provides a counterfeit a perversion of the original so when the fear of the lord is lacking the fear of death the fear of coronavirus what whatever you want to say the feet some type of perverted fear replaces it or same thing with wisdom you know the apostle paul talked about a counterfeit wisdom he talked about a wisdom which comes from above that is meek and peaceable and gentle and easily entreated but then he also i believe it was paul or james forgive me but but he said there's a wisdom that does not come from above and it's earthly sensual and devilish and and knowledge i mean there's a counterfeit knowledge um a perverted knowledge an awareness the tree of the knowledge good and evil was partaking of partaking of of the knowledge of knowledge of what's good and evil instead of eating from the tree of life and letting the spirit of god daily guide us and direct us so anytime so any when when when the seven spirits of god are any part and they come as a package that's important if one is missing they're all likely going to be missing but i really believe the lord was showing me that when the fear of the lord returns to the church all forms of counterfeit or perversion of perverted understanding or counterfeit understanding perverted or counterfeit knowledge or wisdom or might you don't have to manufacture anything right any hype or anything when the fear of the lord returns the angelic returns knowledge wisdom understanding and might returns and i believe god is about to restore the fear the reverential all of the lord back to the church so we can see the latter day end time ministry unfold yeah amen so in other words a prayer mandate for us right now should be lord send the fear of the lord empower your people with the revelation all of god um i have some thoughts tell me chris what do you think produces reverential art how do we get there well i believe that a real understanding okay let me back up when isaiah in isaiah chapter 6 when he encountered the lord in the throne room he said in the year the king uzziah died i saw the lord high and lifted up and uzziah represented pride or presumption because he tried to as king thought that as king he could operate as priest and he was smote with with leprosy i believe the bible says and so when pride and presumption was out of the picture the year that king uzziah died uzziah represented that in the end of his life pride and presumption when that's removed then spiritual eyes are open for isaiah and i believe they are for us as well i saw the lord high and lifted up and his train filled the temple and the angels cried one to another holy holy holy and the bible says isaiah said woe is me i'm a man of unclean lips i'm undone he basically said you know i'm wrecked and he asked for a coal from off of the altar to come and touch his lips that he considered unclean john in revelation when he encountered the lord um it he said i fell in my face like a dead man so an increase a return to to prayer to real prayer like the book of acts talks about where they prayed until something happened until the house shook i believe it's in acts chapter 5. and when we begin to encounter god in an intimate way with prayer and fasting again we will encounter his awesomeness again which will return that all that reverential fear absolutely well that's exactly where i thought you would go with that answer that's why i asked because i wholeheartedly concur i believe your experience is absolutely from the lord i don't know if there's a word more relevant to right now than for us to actively pursue the lord to release the spirit of reverential law and i believe that comes by revelation that comes by encounter you know you can read in a book the definition of reverential law but it really doesn't capture the real meaning until you've seen something so overwhelming so real so powerful that you're undone i've had a couple of those and i got to be honest with you you know i'm just to be transparent i have listened to some of the testimonies of some people that say they've been to the throne room and they've encountered the father and i don't sense any all i don't sense any reverential fear and it makes me question the validity of those experiences i'm just sorry that's true and i oftentimes use the whole thing with isaiah you know isaiah said i'm undone i know god the father is our loving father and for god so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son but he's still a consuming fire i mean he's still awesome and powerful and and as long as we're in this tabernacle of flesh when you really encounter that realm you are undone and when you're marked by a supernatural encounter you carry that dimension of this spirit i believe that yeah and so one of the things we are just encouraging is to go behind the veil to encounter god and i had a little something happen this week chris and i'll i'll share it i had put out a post on my facebook page i normally only use my facebook page for um you know just to encourage the body of christ with words of encouragement little little things you know but for about five days i kept feeling this nudge to post a little something about the political environment of oregon and i didn't want to do it i resisted it for several days i thought no that's just my thinking you know and you won't go away you know how it is so i finally posted that you know and and uh and i've gotten a huge number of responses with some on the facebook some privately but i guess it would have been uh two days ago now that i was just praying about this and here's what i was praying chris you know i was i was saying i was praying asking the lord to give the remnant this people more authority to begin to deal with the spirited artist you follow me and then i thought just dropped into me randomly i haven't thought about this is something i read years ago haven't preached it haven't thought about it haven't taught it hasn't been on my radar for many years but i just inside of me and this thought dropped into me and i remembered what is written in the history books from the 16th century scottish reformation where it's reported that the mary queen of scots made this statement that i i fear the prayers of john knox more than all the assembled armies of europe my thought dropped into my head and i said lord where is that dimension of authority that you give your people that the demonic folks the the opposition fear our prayers you know and here's what i heard this was what shocked me chris it dropped into me like a like a bomb and it wasn't a vision but it just kind of exploded on the inside of me i heard this voice say when my people embody the fear of the lord the world will have fear of the church when my people embody the fear of the lord then they will respect what we do in other words wouldn't it be awesome you know if some of these wicked occultic political leaders and that's what i'm dealing with here wouldn't it be wonderful if they have a special meeting you know they call all their guys together we've got a problem the christians are praying we got a problem the christians have been wakened up and their god is moving on their behalf because they're filled with the reverential all of god and say essentially what mary queen of scots said i fear the prayers of john knox more than i fear the assembled armies of europe and you know you get the point there where you know and there's a biblical foundation for that chris and i i believe at least there may be many but one that i feel emphasized right now is second thessalonians chapter 2 where it talks about the mystery of lawlessness and uh how rampant it is and how lawless it is and the mystery of iniquity and and it says that he will be he will be active but he's restrained he is restrained the mystery of lawlessness is restrained by the holy spirit and the holy spirit operates to us so we have this mandate to restrain the mystery of lawlessness until we're taken out of the way you're tracking with me there i may not have explained that exactly the way but i mean we have we have a biblical mandate you know what we are the restraining force and we don't seem to have the authority i'm not being critical the church this i need authority we need more power we need to write all the heavens when we pray and almighty god just can't help himself but to come down and see about us and begin to move and shake and shift i want these demonic structures to say oh my goodness we got a problem the christians are praying and their god has been awakened as if from a slumber and he's taking a stand against darkness and he's pushing it back that's what i want to happen and i believe some of that has to happen uh for us to get in the harvest the way that we're supposed to bring it in and to do some of the things that we're supposed to do right now they don't even want us to have church well that's that's not going to work you know but the the main thing i was getting i don't want to divert too much but though i heard the lord say when my people embody the fear of the lord that then the worldly structures will begin to fear the church and really fear this prayer movement well let me ask you this question then chris you know the seven-fold spirit of god you know has been talked about in the book of revelations do you see it being attached to the fullness of the sons of god that are about to emerge on planet earth absolutely yeah there's no no doubt i'll say this there is when you're operating in the seven-fold spirit of god that is a whole new level jesus didn't operate in a word of knowledge right he operated in the spirit of knowledge you know he didn't operate in the gift of healing or the gift of miracles he operated in the spirit of might and there's a difference you know if i have the gift of healing or miracles if we'll be honest uh we may pray for ten people and and three get healed and seven don't right but because that's a gift of the spirit and i'm in no way minimizing or taking away from the the first corinthians 12 gifts of the spirit but it can it can come and go i don't you know a word of knowledge may come and go you can't a lot of people think you know you can just snap your fingers and and get a word no it's it's totally god inspired yeah but but when you operate in the spirit of knowledge it is a continual flowing river of knowledge and revelation and power and might and this is jesus who who is the the prototype the only begotten son of god he is the one which ultimately it's not going to be just one jesus in the earth but many jesus's in this mighty end time army not saying that your world actually jesus but embodying the fullness of of the spirit of god and doing the greater works of christ in these last days it's going to take more than a gift of healing or miracles it's going to take the spirit of might it's going to take more than the gift of the word of knowledge or word of wisdom it's going to take the spirit of knowledge and being mantled with the spirit of wisdom and the spirit of counsel and all of that cannot come without a return or an absolute outpouring restoration of the reverential fear of the lord and when i encountered that angel the the angel of the fear of the lord i there was a holy ah in reverence about it that i cannot speak just casually about it but it it stirs my innermost being and i believe that when we are stirred again more than just being you know priming the pump or uh you know just getting people fired up in a service on on the weekend i i think this is about returning back to a lifestyle of seeking god to where literally hours of prayer pass by like this and it's not a drudgery it's a delight it's a want to it's a desire when we press into those deeper places with god those throne room encounters and it's just like any the bible talks about our spiritual gifts that by reason of use they they are fine-tuned and they are matured and the same is true with prayer it's a two-way communication the more we learn to talk to god and and and get an ear he that has an ear oh god give us an ear for to hear what the spirit is saying to the churches and i really believe that when we fine-tune that communication and get back to really seeking and pursuing god as we heard and read about in azusa street what we read about in the book of acts where they would pray to the house shook and and people would fall dead just for being dishonest uh you know or king herod took glory and credit for himself and the bible said the angel the lord struck him and he was ate with worms now i know that sounds crazy but this you know this is after calvary this is after the cross and and i think and i love the grace of god if anybody's needed it i do i do but i think this perversion of hyper grace has hurt the fear of the lord and it just a careless lifestyle you know without a conscience being pricked of how we talk how we live how we how we do life not that we are under condemnation or religious spirit no no no in fact when the spirit of the fear of the lord is missing often what will replace it is a religious spirit when the true spirit of the fear of the lord is there you don't need legalism you don't need a religious spirit to try to do what the fear of the lord will naturally produce in us which is a reverential fear of almighty god absolutely you know somewhere there's a passage that says um that if i were to come among you for a moment you couldn't endure it i kind of think we're a little bit right there now that if the lord really manifested himself in our midst the way that we're wanting to um it's not going to get the reaction a lot of people think that it wouldn't um so would you would you think this is a fair statement chris that if we are not if since we are called to do the works christ did and even greater works then we need the same anointing he had would you agree with that stable without a doubt no we can't have anything less in fact i'll add this i was listening to a message this week preached by um paul kane years ago he preached a message entitled the jealousy of god yeah i heard it and um there's several parts to it and it it's as i was actually recently uploaded on youtube and oh my goodness when we understand that god is jealous over us he's jealous over how we spend our time what we're affectionate about what our interests are god has a holy jealousy and and when that jealousy is returned and we allow god to be jealous over us and respond to that then the fear of the lord will respond you know i have a friend who years ago went to many of the voice of healing meetings and um he has he had a television uh broadcast and he when he was younger he had went to a allen meetings he went i believe he said uh oral roberts meetings and he went to the meetings of of william marion branham as well and he said all of them were incredible they there was authentic real genuine signs wonders and miracles but he said that there was a different feeling at the william branham meetings he said anybody in fact he's probably in his late 70s early 80s now and he told me he said my siblings that are because when he was young his dad had a heart condition and he was healed his dad would had a terminal heart condition was healed in a william branham meeting and all brother branham did was he walked past him and either shook his hand or patted him on the shoulder and said lord bless my brother and here he had a terminal heart condition and was healed and lived for like another 40 or 50 years wow um but with that being said he said i've spoke with my siblings many times over the years i think he went to three or four brandon meetings in the 50s and the early 60s and he said and all we went to all the different the voice of healing evangelists he said but there was a different feeling a different atmosphere in the branham meetings he said we he goes i've talked to my siblings and he said they all agree we have never felt an atmosphere of holy all holy terror but somehow the manifest love of god all co-mingled he said we've never felt that and they they've not minimized anybody else's ministry he wasn't saying this in any way yeah to to tear anybody else down he was just saying i've never felt it duplicated anywhere else and here you see this atmosphere this feeling of re reverence and and and holy terror almost so to speak was somehow connected with the most supernatural ministry since the days of the first century church there's definitely a connection you know i have over the last 25 or so years interviewed really anyone that i come in contact with that were in those meetings as you were just talking probably have interviewed at least two dozen maybe closer to three dozen people that's a pretty conservative number of people that were in the meetings and every one of them over all those different years different settings different meetings all said the same thing that the fear of the lord was tangible that was their number one description of of what they felt in that medium of course you know he had what was called the pillar of fire you might even call that the spirit of the lord manifested bringing wisdom and revelation counseling might and knowledge and the reverential fear of the lord and you know um you know we could probably go on here for another hour but you know there are biblical examples of people you know the prophets of old the spirit of the lord would come upon them for a moment and they would do something you know elijah the whole altar of belle you remember you know the bell he's told your god's god we're serving you know call down fire to consume the altar nothing happened you remember and then all of a sudden you know he pours water all these different what is it 12 pots of water whatever it happens to be and he says at the end of that he says lord i have done all of this at your word in other words he had a word of counsel and he said i've done this exactly the way you said do it now let your fire come in other words obedience to the word of counsel released the spirit of might and fire consumed the altar naaman you know here's the word of counsel you want to be healed of leprosy go to the jordan river dip seven times not five not six not eight seven not any other river that's more beautiful with cleaner water go to the dirty muddy river jordan dip seven times kill them and he obedience to that word healed him of leprosy counts and might and so on it goes and what i feel like happened in brother branham's meeting was this realm of open vision hebrews 4 12 the discerning of the thoughts and intents of the heart producing the fear of the lord um and you know you mentioned paul kane and he moved in that for a season in those early years where where the secrets of the heart were revealed and the fear of the lord came and um and i believe this is a secret i believe you know here is my belief and you can come on comment on this once i do you know romans 8 talks about the manifestation of the sons of god that all of creation is groaning waiting for the unveiling the revealing of the sons of god it says in romans 8 15 and romans 8 23 it begins to talk about the spirit of adoption the spirit of adoption and the lord told me not too long ago the spirit of adoption was being poured out like the spirit of faith or the spirit of revelation or the spirit of might there is a spirit of adoption and i believe this adoption is not the becoming of the believer but the placing of a believer into fullness in the maturity where we move beyond first corinthians 12 into the sevenfold spirit of god i believe ephesians talks about that we have an earnest for a season and the gifts of the spirit help us along the way until we experience our adoption the placing of the sun even the word adoption is huiofistia the placing of a mature son and so i feel like i believe and i'm gonna let you comment here but i believe this this the doctrine if that's the right word this spirit of adoption is directly connected to a community of people a remnant of people moving over into the fullness of sonship whereby they are anointed or maybe a better word inhabited by the seventh-hole spirit of god what's they hear yeah i i completely agree um you know there's a verse often taken out of context uh that that many and i'm not i'm not demonizing any group but but in the extreme hyper grace camps um you know you hear first john 4 18 about there's no fear in love perfect love casts out fear one day i had a had a revelation and i don't remember how i got it or who i heard it from um but it really came to me and just really opened my eyes i'd heard that verse misquoted i heard first john 4 18 quoted there's no fear in love for perfect love casts out all fear it doesn't say that it says perfect love casts out fear perfect love doesn't cast out one fear it casts out all fears but one and that is a different kind of fear a pure fear the fear of the lord and um i want to add just something to this real quickly in i believe it was january the 8th 1961 brother branham was teaching in branham tabernacle in jeffersonville indiana which is just two to three hours from where i am here in peru indiana and i've been in there and there is i've talked to people who were in this meeting he was teaching about the seven church ages the seven messengers and while he was teaching and i've heard the audio suddenly this pillar of fire appears in the building where several hundred were sitting and you hear the audio clip i think it's january the 8th of 1960 i believe that it is um and you hear people screaming i mean just freaking out not in a negative way but brother branham spoke calmly he said no no no he says that's just that's just the angel of the lord you know like like you know that that's just the angel of the lord and he said you're seeing a reflection he said what you're seeing back there on the wall is actually what's up here over my shoulder reflecting on the back wall and it was showing those seven church ages and the level of light that was decreasing as time went on ultimately to uh laodicea and i wasn't there i've personally talked to people who were there but here's what i know when the real supernatural and this is the reason why i believe the fear of the lord um and i and i remember right wasn't it bob jones who said of paul kane called him the terror of the lord or wasn't it the lord showed bob jones that the the in the spirit that you know when paul came in his younger days was known as the the terror of the lord well paul king you know ministered directly with with william branham years and years ago and it's interesting there's a coupling brother paul there's a coupling of the seven spirits you mentioned the spirit of counsel and might they're coupled just like on this you know menorah you might see back here behind me up on my bookshelf here well you know and one last one more example of the spirit of counsel and might jesus told the man the blind man go wash in the pool of salome there was counsel what happened when he followed the council the spirit of might opened his blind eyes well two more that are coupled together are the fear of the lord and knowledge and i think that's the reason why men that have operated and i think that no one operated at that level of supernatural knowledge like william branham did and i think the reason being is is because of that and you know you said 20 you know two dozen i've talked to several they all said there was a different atmosphere in those meetings it was the fear of the lord and it revealed the not the secrets of the heart the knowledge of the truth about people's lives their sicknesses discerning their diseases and that's something i have personally sought after and prayed for you know if if i have any prophetic ministry whatsoever i if i ever lose the fear of the lord um then it's it's it's it's nothing at that point but yes we are coming into a place of perfection we are being perfected through through through through discipline from the lord through through his love his kindness and as we grow into those full matured sons right then we are entrusted with um those seven fold spirits of god and i'll add one last thing i believe it's in acts chapter four the bible speaks about jesus and it said whom god who had anointed jesus of nazareth who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed of the devil and i think there's something interesting about the sequence of how that's said acts 4 and 10 i believe it's acts 4 and 10 speaking of jesus who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed of the devil here's what that says to me paul keith that says because he had matured in his nature you know he grew in wisdom of course jesus was fully god fully man yes but he grew in wisdom he grew in understanding in his humanity and because he had the nature of god he could be entrusted with the power of god who went about doing good and healing all who are oppressed of the devil i think that's why there's nine fruit of the spirit to balance out nine gifts of the spirit what good is it to have the gift of healing if you don't have the fruit of meekness and you go around talking about how great you are yeah absolutely yeah you know i think you're recording acts 10 38 the last part of this one about doing good healing all the way oppressor of the devil for god was with him my apologies i yeah yeah okay but here here's the thing about that you know we talked a moment ago about the spirit of the lord came upon elijah called out fire from heaven by the council of god then ran from jezebel the spirit would come upon him and would lift but when the lord was anointed in the jordan river john makes an important part point he said the spirit came upon him and remain and this is where this is where chris i am believing we're going to see this before the end comes where the spirit of the lord is going to come into a union experience with pride of christ the sons of the kingdom which are by the way the same groups of people two sides of the same point and remain and remain there won't be this you know times of seeming separation or or you know that we're going to live in a constant union with the messiah for god is with us all right i believe that um i believe that's what the scriptures promised and prophesied before the last days and i do think what you just said a moment ago people have been through a refining they've been through a preparation there has been something that's been necessary to walk in that realm and not everybody has been willing to pay the price you know you know people this gospel of grace that you've referred to want it to be a gospel without price but it says in revelations that i advise you to buy of me go refined by fire there's a purchase there that means i have a currency what is my currency if the lord is telling me to buy gold refined by fire white garments to cover my nakedness and i said that i may see what's my currency and i think you know our will is a big part of that and the fear of the lord is a big part of that where we have this exchange just this supernatural divine exchange kind of while i'm sharing this i want to comment on one thing before i forget because i want to support something that you said a moment ago um you made a statement that the angel of the fear of the lord spoke to you and i um i had an experience back in 2008 i believe it was when i hosted a conference and one of the things that i talked about in that conference it was in alabama was the the sevenfold spirit of god and i connected it directly to the lampstand and even the colors of the rainbow that's kind of a minor point but here's how i saw it then chris i saw it's almost and i'm gonna try to use language that's descriptive but it's like you have the spirit of counsel but under the jurisdiction of the spirit of counsel or a host of supernatural beings you can call them angels if we want to that carry they are embodied counsel then you had a host that functioned under the jurisdiction or under the authority of the spirit of might and they embody the spirit of might and so forth with wisdom and with revelation and and knowledge in the written in other words this host of heaven angels or created beings whatever they are they carried in their very being those attributes of the holy spirit can i read something real quickly this is something i wrote back when i did this teaching i said god's sevenfold spirit is a wonderful mystery to highlight the functioning of the lord's spirit in the earth it is not in contradiction to the triune nature of god but a perfect and complete expression of his spirit that demonstrates the fullness of his character and power the spirit of the lord doesn't have wisdom in revelation counseling might knowledge in the reference you all he is all of these things he is that that's what he is so when the angel that works under this jurisdiction if that's the right word it works under this authority this divine supernatural authority they embody it and the reason that i taught back then that i think it's important that we begin to recognize these things and you even mention something you said that there was this blue hue in your experience i don't want to gloss over that missed it well according to this coloring of the lampstand we've done if this is right blue is somehow representative of of the fear of the lord now you might say why is that important because i have seen this myself with my own eyes where we were functioning in this anointing and they would come into this room a certain color or a certain attribute and it would be the fear of the lord it would be the spirit of mind it would be revelation whatever it happened to be and my deal was i want to cooperate with the anointing jesus did only what he saw the father doing in other words he didn't try to prophesy when the father was wanting to heal he followed the leading of the spirit and i believe this mature sonship will be in such union in unison with the sevenfold spirit of god that when the lord comes into a room to heal we're not trying to prophesy we're releasing the spirit of might or the spirit of revelation or wisdom or knowledge or reverential fear whatever it happens to be and so that i believe that what we're going to begin to teach is this cooperation between heaven and earth this cooperation between the manifestation of the spirit of the lord and the functioning of the power of god on planet earth um anyway i'll just throw that out there to you that i totally agree yeah the seven colors of the and by the way the bible says in the throne room where in revelation chapter four and in chapter five the seven spirits of god are before the throne it says also there's a rainbow round about the throne one time i was i was preaching the lord showed me that uh by revelation that that rainbow round about the throne you know when you see rainbows here on earth you only see you know a half uh oval a half circle but it says that around the throne of god that it's a rainbow round about the throne right because the rainbow represents the promises of god yeah and in the throne room see here on earth we know impart we prophesy in part but there it's the fullness of his promises that we encounter in the throne room because the rainbow was round about and complete and yes so so there's not a it's not a coincidence that the rainbow round about the throne is right where the seven spirits of god are because of color discerning those seven spirits by by the color and i am fully convinced of that and i'd like to add one more thing to something that you said if i might in revelation 3 where you spoke of where the lord said you know to buy gold uh counsel me to buy gold tried in the fire um and you said something about the currency of heaven now we know we get all things by grace through faith but i believe there is a level of authority entrusted to us because there is a currency of the kingdom and it's your will sacrificing your will and i think they're scriptural to that in fact i would say that the blood of jesus being released being cleansed by his blood was also tied to him overcoming his will now let me explain revelation 13 8 quickly the bible says he was the lamb slain from before the foundation of the world but yet in mark 8 34 jesus said if any man will come after me will come after me let him take up his cross and then of course matthew 26 27 he says this is the blood of the new covenant or the new will so how does the blood change us reform us matures into those we ask sons of god we sing about the blood we talk about the blood but i often sometimes wonder if believers actually know what they're singing about how it's applied you know how we receive of it now so here's the thing the bible says he was the lamb slain from before the foundation of the world so before he was slain in time in the physical realm he was slain in eternity before the time realm so if he was the lamb slain before the foundation of the world in the spirit realm before the world was made which he was actually sacrificed here's the thing there is no blood in the eternal realm in a physical sense if he's the lamb slain from before the foundation of the world you can't have blood unless you take on a physical body in physical realm with time so if he was the lamb slain what was slain before the world was it was his will absolutely not my will sure but dying be done he willed it before the world was before blood was even involved before blood was even created his will is in the spirit to what his blood is in the earth yeah let me say that one more time his will is to the spirit what his blood was to the flesh so how did sin enter into the picture in the war in the world adam sinned with his will that brought problems adam's sin brings death where does death start in the blood the scripture says the life of all flesh is in the blood that's why morticians first step they do in in is in in the embalming they drain the body of blood because blood is where death starts in the body that's why the blood begins to coagulate and the decaying process speeds up so what connects sin to our blood our human will right what connects jesus's blood to us surrendered will yielded will man there's so much power and truth that i'm not trying to get sidetracked but there is a currency in the spirit of them no doubt about it yeah that's um i concur 100 that's the way i have shared it for years you know i had this thing happen to me back in 1990 i was watching a catherine coolman crusade from 1975 or 1976 close to the end of her life big charismatic full gospel businessmen's convention 10 000 people she's doing her animated preaching and not a person was moving not a sound was being uttered and she makes this statement i'll never forget it but she begins to talk about oh we're at this wonderful charismatic convention and you've experienced you know the operating of the gifts i'm paraphrasing everything it's a wonderful thing to be filled with the holy spirit it's a wonderful experience to see the prophecies it's a wonderful experience to experience the power of god she's talking about this charism out of charismata but then she pauses for a long time and she's those wonderful experiences you know how animated she was and she points that bony finger but do you know the experience of having yielded your will to the will of the father i had never heard anything like that in my life but it struck me so hard in 1990 i've never forgotten then she goes on you know you the the fruit of that he says he'll give you power power that you can stand alone a raid against all the forces of hell not because of your own strength but because you're drawing on unseen resources oh man there's a world where you like my heart i'll never forget them i said whatever that experience was i want it so if the will is tied to the power of the blood because as i said in the spirit his will is to what in the flesh his blood is right is it possible that we're not really experiencing the full power of what the blood of jesus offers until we really surrender and break our will and i don't even think we can experience the blood in a salvational way without repentance which is then changing of the mind the breaking of the will but i think the the more we yield and break our will your will be done in earth as it is not my will be done jesus won the battle in the garden of gethsemane he just enforced it on golgotha hill absolutely when he said in the garden it's not my will the the will of the man christ jesus but god it it's it's your will so could it be the the degree to which our will is surrendered and sacrificed and broken through prayer through fasting the degree to which our will is sacrificed is the degree to which we can experience the power of the blood of jesus and what can it do in our personal lives in our services and our meetings and our ministries through healing and signs and wonders the blood the blood the blood hallelujah i believe it's what paul talked about in galatians 2 20. you know and we can't have repentance chris until there's a conviction of sin and i think that's you know repentance is lacking yes but what's really lacking is conviction when the spirit of truth comes which i think we're touching on that now when he the spirit of truth comes he will bring the conviction of sin sin because we do not believe you know this has been a heavy duty interview but you know what it's the run that i'm going to get these are things it is time for these things to be said you know when paul talked about going to the third heavens and seeing things that were not expressible i don't necessarily believe he was just talk saying i don't have words to sing them i really believe he was saying i can't share them now because they're not far now but they're for a future generation yeah i really believe it's kind of connected to what daniel saw in daniel 12 where he was told you know seal these things up because they're for the end time they're for the last days and i think some of what we're talking about are is beginning to tap into this dimension in god things that have been reserved for this right time community of people on the earth this end of the age community that have something woven into their spiritual dna that we may not have everyone understand what we're talking about right now but my my experience has been i've had so many people say i don't really understand all you said but something in me is screaming yes and amen you know that's awakening that seed you know the spirit of truth coming to bring the conviction of sin um and i absolutely believe that and there's going to be this body of people out there it has to happen because there must be the restoration of all things it's going to happen i don't have anything about it it will happen these things will be fulfilled on planet earth i just would like for the lord to let me be a little part of it i know that's what you're saying just don't leave me out now i pray that genesis 18 3 prayer all the time lord jesus if i have found favor in your sight don't pass me by don't leave me out now you know we've come too far well that's just awesome chris awesome revelation anything else you'd like to add no no i um i i just truly appreciate you um i know um we had someone i told you the other day that saw our last video that we did and visit our church here the other day and they'd just been i think two people had been following you for years and and their words were man you know i remember one of the brothers saying paul keith davis he has a handle on the spirit of revelation that we've not found anywhere else and i'm telling you i'm finding that to be accurate and so i just i honor your ministry and thank you for being kind to me and a friend to me and i i hold you in dear esteem as an awesome man of god and i know the people that'll watch this will as well thank you so much i appreciate that well we can't leave chris without you releasing this thing on us so would you do that now just with all that you've got the authority the lord has given to you i want it to i won't be in doubt the spirit of the fear of the lord would you pray for us yes father i thank you today for this revelation of the seven spirits of god lord you have spoken this to me so strongly that it has actually inspired me to write a book about it and i'm doing that under your uh obedience to you lord right now there are people father that are watching this that are saying lord i want to surrender my will i want to yield my will to you i want to be mantled with the seven spirits of god i want to walk in that level of revelation so father right now just as sincere as i know how to be lord i pray in the name of jesus christ that every person watching will encounter in a supernatural way throne room encounters angelic encounters open-eyed vision encounters lord that you will visit them in the night season lord that you will show them you and that they will develop lord that fear of the lord that comes not scared no but reverential all that comes from truly any man or woman encountering you and lord we're praying for an open heaven to be opened over every listener and every person oh god that participates and we just released impartation lord anything that you've ever used me with and for lord i pass on to my brothers and sisters to the degree of the grace and faith that they have to receive it in jesus christ's name we thank you for the blood we thank you lord for the power of the holy ghost and the word of god and lord we just want to walk in the spirit and know that all things that calvary has provided is for ours and we want to function and operate in the full benefits of your finished work in jesus christ's name amen amen i could feel my bones moving i received that too i could feel it on the inside that's just awesome well chris you know i i'm sure there'll be people that are going to want to connect with you you have services on saturday kind of give people that might be watching the information of how to connect with you yeah well the first way they can connect with me if you're on if you have if you're on

congregation here in peru indiana we're about an hour north of indianapolis and we actually gather on saturday mornings at 11 a.m and we're located at 307 wampler street wampler street 307 wampler street peru indiana awesome well chris this was powerful i have a feeling this will not be our last one oh no we have to continue to do a few more of these and just keep expounding on this and releasing the word you know i'm a firm believer that truth goes into the realm of the spirit it just goes into the atmosphere as we prophesy it and we release it and people begin to lift their revelatory antenna even people in other nations will begin to tune into the spirit and hear truth that's been released and begin to preach it so i pray that's what happens that this will begin to multiply that it will begin to take root in the hearts of people and a groundswell of faith will come and a transformation or really a reformation transformation and an awakening will begin to happen in the body of christ that's our prayer well thank you chris bless you man yes sir yes sir god bless you
