Deliverance: Righteousness - David Mitts

Image
“These are the records of the generations of Noah. Noah was a righteous man, blameless in his generation. Noah walked with God. And Noah fathered three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.” (Genesis 6:9-10) To listen to the audio-only version click below  Giving Opportunity Message   Noah was a righteous man. When we speak of deliverance Noah was the first example in scripture of judgment and deliverance. We live in wicked times by any account where the fear of the Lord has been relegated to religion. People of faith have been declared by the ruling authorities as non-essential. Even the simplest choice of whether to inject fetal tissue derived experimental ineffective vaccinations is being attacked. At the core of this is the spiritual reality of true righteousness. The question is what true righteousness is. We read the Apostle Paul who informs us that righteousness is not of works but of faith. “For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation ...

Heart Meditations 12 - Breastplate of Righteousness - David Mitts

"Justice is turned back, and righteousness stands afar off; For truth is fallen in the street, and equity cannot enter. So, truth fails, and he who departs from evil makes himself a prey. Then the LORD saw it, and it displeased Him That there was no justice. He saw that there was no man, and wondered that there was no intercessor; Therefore, His own arm brought salvation for Him; And His own righteousness, it sustained Him. For He put on righteousness as a breastplate, and a helmet of salvation on His head; He put on the garments of vengeance for clothing and was clad with zeal as a cloak." Isa 59:14-17 (NKJV)   We live in times when standing for what is right and truthful and built on the foundation stone of the goodness of God is seen as anachronistic and bigoted. There is a war for the hearts and minds of God’s children. Our thoughts spring out of the meditations of our hearts. What we dwell upon becomes the fuel for our lives. If our meditations can be corrupted, then...

The Established Heart - David Mitts

Now He who establishes us with you in Christ and has anointed us is God, who also has sealed us and given us the Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee. (2Co 1:21-22) Click here to listen to Message " The Established Heart " Giving opportunity - Please listen and give according to your willingness of heart. Feel free to use the "DONATE" button Last week we spoke about first love, the quality of the ‘wow factor’ about God and about our relationships. We looked at the place of honor, and seeing with the eyes of the “new”. This is the process of renewal or revival of our heart in the love of the Lord and the love of others in our lives. It is the process of continually being fresh and alive in our love, and not allowing “knowledge” to bring about the slow process of accommodation and death. This week, I want to press in for the other side of the same coin: the steadfast or established heart. What does it mean to be ‘established’ in something? Our openi...

Righteousness: Who am I - David Mitts

For who among men knows the thoughts of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so the thoughts of God no one knows except the Spirit of God . (1Co 2:11) Click here to listen to " Righteousness: Who am I " Giving opportunity - God went to a widow in a foriegn land to show himself strong during a famine. He desires to move through those willing to listen to His voice. Listen and give according to your willingness of heart. Feel free to use the "DONATE" button One of deepest cries of the human heart is to know that we are significant, that we matter. A chief lie of the enemy of our soul is that there is no meaning to our lives except that which we make up. He wants us to believe that all truth is relative to whoever is thinking a particular truth. In other words, you control your own reality. This is tempting to us because we crave the power of reality control. It stems in us back to Garden when we were promised that when we had our ey...

The Anointing and The Glory - Righteousness - David Mitts

For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.  (2 Corinthians 5:21 NKJV) You could say the purpose of the cross was for us who receive Messiah, to become the righteousness of God, in Him.  We have been pressing in for revelation of what it feels like to operate in the anointing of God.  I know we have been trained not to walk by feelings but by faith in the Word of God.  The Word however contains feelings galore! Listen to " The Anointing and the Glory - Righteousness " For example, David said: Let them shout for joy and be glad , who favor my righteous cause; And let them say continually, "Let the Lord be magnified, who has pleasure in the prosperity of His servant." (Psalms 35:27 NKJV) Favoring the righteous cause of the Lord, like Destiny House, brings a shout of joy and a gladness of heart. There is a shout in heaven and a corresponding shout on earth.  It also brings a true prosperit...

The Substance of the Anointing-Righteousness - David Mitts

Do not offer any part of yourself to sin as an instrument of wickedness, but rather offer yourselves to God as those who have been brought from death to life; and offer every part of yourself to him as an instrument of righteousness. (Romans 6:13 NIV). The anointing is the power that we are clothed with from on high to manifest the will of God in the earth.  It has a purpose, the thoughts and intents of the heart of God, which is called the mind of Christ, or the mind of Messiah.  Christ or Messiah means literally anointing.  So, to be in Christ, is to be operating in the anointing. "I am telling the truth in Christ, I am not lying, my conscience testifies with me in the Holy Spirit,"  Romans 9:1 . Listen to " Substance of the Anointing " In the anointing, the Holy Spirit is speaking to our spirit and we can, if we choose to, tell the truth that we hear from Him, which then testifies with the Holy Spirit in agreement and produces the power of that t...
