Intimate Union: Bride of Christ part 4 of 9 Re-Post 10/18/09


I was awakened from a deep sleep earlier this week. When I awoke, I reached for the remote, turned on the television and changed the channel to Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN). Just at that moment, barely awake, Benny Hinn's program was just starting. As I laid there in bed, I asked God what it was he wanted me to know. This was the message Benny Hinn was sharing that very morning. I was in AWE the entire time. Benny Hinn perfectly describes the beautiful personal relationship I share with my heavenly Father and how this nirvana reached me. It's an ongoing process. Benny Hinn has described this union in a way that I could never put into words the way he has. It's a way of living I wish everyone could truly know deep down in the core of their being. Would you please take a moment out of your day to listen to this most beautiful 9 part message that God wants you to know. God loves you soooooooo much! You have always been His precious precious child and He is just waiting for you to embrace Him right where you are. Open your heart, mind, body and spirit to Him and watch your life be trasformed in total amazement. I have typed a transcript of the first 7 minutes of part 4 for my international readers who need to translate.

****************************************************************

It's that engagement season. He's not yet married. She's not yet married. But when that couple are married the journey begins. And the journey begins when they become one. The longer they live together, the more they become like each other. Correct? That's the earthly marriage. So think of it in the spiritual sense. When I got married to Suzanne, I didn't really feel one with her. On the day I said, "I do." I wasn't done. Thirty years later I feel already that she and I cannot be disconnected. Well that's in the natural. Take it a billion times more, strenghten it. We cannot really understand it in the spirit. But take it up way higher than the natural realm. Well that is what Jesus is talking about. That the day will come you are going to become so one with Him. You don't understand it now, but you will then.

If somebody told me thirty years ago that my wife and I would be so connected, so one with each other, it would take a miracle. It took a miracle. Because when you live with someone everything about them starts to rub on you and everything about you rubs on them. And sometimes you don't like the way it rubs, but it's there. Two lives are becoming one and there's a struggle. And that's in the natural realm. So salvation is our engagement if I can say it like that. We make our commitment to become one with Him. But where not there yet. Where it becomes real, where suddenly it becomes part of us is in that Holy of Holy experience. That's where we cannot get away from Him.

I can talk to the Lord in that outer court, but I'm not experiencing anything out of there. Except my, you know I'm praying, I'm making my request known, and I'm struggling, I'm fighting and such things happen in that outer court. But if I don't get any closer, I don't know the glory that is waiting for me in there. But when I experience that glory, that's what pulls me back. But I have to go through the right process, because there is no shortcuts, so I'll say all right I'll gladly go through that area of struggle so I can taste it again. I'll gladly pay the price here so I can enjoy this. And now I get to the deeper realm of prayer, the Holy of Holies that so overwhelms my soul it becomes a part of me. And as it becomes a part of me, if I do not experience that everyday I am not myself. Because the peace, and the tranquility and the joy and the oneness and the union is ONLY in there. This is where my LOVE is on fire. This is where I really LOVE Him. This where He TALKS to me. This is where He is SO REAL to me. This is where He EMBRACES me and I EMBRACE Him. And I miss Him because I've been there yesterday and I've got to go back to Him today. And the more you spend time in the Holy of Holies, the more REAL He is to you. And it's there that He'll kiss you. "Let Him kiss me, with the kiss' of His mouth."

Now you begin on this journey in the Holy of Holies where you begin to experience the depth, and the height. Phillipians talks about that and so does Ephesians. Let me show it to you, turn to Ephesians chapter 3. This is exactly what Paul was talking about. Verse 16 through 19, he talked about this. "That He would grant you according to His riches of His glory, to be strenghtened by might by His Spirit in the inner man; that Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in LOVE, may be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breath, and length, and depth and height; And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with ALL the fullness of God." That's what I'm talking about. You begin by Christ living in your hearts by faith and end up experiencing the fullness of God. Now that's our destination to experience the fullness. That is what let Him kiss me is all about.
