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 5 minutes for my international readers who need to translate.
******************************************************************
The bride continues to say in Solomon 1 verse 7, "Tell me O thou whom my soul loveth, where thou feedest, where thou makest thy flock rest at noon. For why should I be as one that turneth aside by the flocks of thy companions?" Now here is the sad thing, even the bride eventually will be forced to leave that blessed fellowship and tend to lower matters. That's why the bride is crying come LORD Jesus, so I don't have to come down. So she says, "Tell me O thou whom my soul loveth, where Thou feedest, where Thou makest Thy flock to rest." So we know that between verse 6 and 7 she was forced out of her place of comfort, of her place of peace, of her place of fellowship. Somehow along the way they forced her out because she had to come down to deal with lower matters. That happens to all of us. But soon the true bride yearns to return to the place where the bridegroom is where He is feeding His flock, that place of fellowship, that place of resting. And she cries out O where are you? I want to be back where You are. Because I haven't been fed by Your presense. I want to be back where the flock is, where Your presense is.
I want to be back where the sun is shining more. I've gotten tired of dealing with lower matters. They've forced me out. But I'm coming back Lord, I'm coming back. I remember this happened to me one time when I was in England. I was in such glory, in such beauty with the LORD. And the woman I was staying at her house kept crying out "Benny lunch is ready come on." And I'm in the presence of God and I'm crying and I'm in fellowship I didn't care about lunch. "Benny come on we're all waiting for you." And I'm in such intensity with the LORD that she kept screaming at me. Finally I said dear Jesus I've got to go and the LORD said to me another minute, just one more minute don't leave me now for another. And I saw how He wanted me so bad and I said I promise I promise I promise I'll be right back I promise. And I ran down and I ran down into emptyness, into darkness, into ugliness, into chaos. Because in comparison that world I did not want it. The meal was good, but it was not as good as the one I was having up there. To the natural body it was marvelous. But I did not want it. When you taste heaven who wants the rest down here. I felt just like this bride, I was eating, screaming where is my shepherd, I have to go back to the flock, I have to go back to the place of that mid day sun where I can explain God's glory. I left that lady in a hurry and said did I miss anything. I'm back LORD. But it took about a whole hour before He came back.
So she says, "Why should I be as one who turns aside by the flocks of Thy companions." Why should I leave where You are and go talk to Your other sheep that don't care about being where You are. That's what happened to me in England. They were all Christian, but they were disconnected. There's a lot of Christians like that. And you lose the presence of God because they force you into their world. She still calls them Your companions, they still belong to You, but they don't seem to want Your fellowship.
Solomon 1 verse 8, "If thou know not, O thou fairest among women, go thy way forth by the footsteps of the flock, and feed thy kids, besides the shepherds tent." He answers her now. Now He replies and says, if you do not know how to find me again, then you must find your nothingness to experience my fullness. That's a little deeper than maybe you want to go. But can we go there please. She's crying out I miss you, I was forced out. Just like that woman forced me out in England. I was forced out. I would rather be with you, but sorry Lord I have to deal with lower matters because these people just won't let me out. Now when you go back He's not there. His presence is gone because He's God. He's not going to wait for you while you take care of the flesh and take care of the world of that flesh. So you've got to go back and start all over again. And so what does He say to you? Find your nothingness and then you will be with me. In other words, empty yourself of what the thing that caused you to go down there. He's a jealous God.
If thou knowest not. Because she just cried out in verse 7, she said please tell me O thou whom my soul loves. Where are you feeding so I can come back there. He says if you don't know where I am feeding, here's how you find it. And He still calls her O fairest of thy women. She's still the bride. Go thy way forth. Go thy way forth means return to that place. Oh my Lord this is awesome. Find that place where you got empty, where you experienced your nothingness so my fullness was revealed there to you. Jesus says look you want me back, empty yourself. And to empty yourself you need time. You can't empty yourself in a second. I demand total emptiness, total death, give it all up or you can't have Me. And then He makes this amazing statement, He says, "You must find your nothingness, then you'll find my fullness, you must go forth from yourself, you must be persuaded by your nothingness to experience God." And then he said this, "You must be obedient to what the true shepherd's have said." Meaning to what the apostle's have said. In other words, I am not going to repeat to you what has already been written. You know exactly what to do to get me back.
And then this amazing verse just jumps at you Solomon 1 verse 9, "I have compared thee, O my love, to a company of horses in Pharoah's chariots." This is awesome. What the Lord is really saying to the bride, you want to find me back, all right but what I really want is when you find me back I want you like a HORSE RUNNING towards me, running out of Egypt out of Pharoah's horses. This is how you'll find me. You were pulled away because of force and pressure by your family. You're looking for me again. All right. Find your nothingness, you'll find My fullness. But I won't accept you unless you run towards me like a company of horses out of Pharoah's chariots. Meaning, you better hate your Egypt so much that you're going to get on your horse and run towards me as fast as you can away from that Egypt. That's when He'll receive you. He'll receive you when you are going to run back to Him.
And then Solomon 1 verse 10, "Thy cheeks are comely with rows of jewels, thy neck with chains of gold." He is still speaking to His bride. Because now she wants Him back. He says your cheeks which represents your inner life and outer life. He says when you return again to me, I'm going to crown you. I'm going to crown you. This is why He talks about the neck, which speaks of true love. I'm going to crown you with Myself, you're going to be most beautiful when you come back. So now she wants to come back. He says all right, you're going to empty yourself to find my fullness, you have to run towards me like a company of horses and when you come back I am going to crown you, you're going to be lovely, even your outer life meaning your cheeks will be lovely, that's what the word calmly means. They'll be with rows of jewels
