Renewal of my mind

When I began to engage the renewal of my mind, God began to deconstruct my thinking and remove the pillars that controlled the way my mind worked and how I framed the world and reality. He began to show me that there was a state of being that was not affected by the memory of what has happened to me here, and that my true identity is who I am intrinsically from God’s perspective and God’s heart, who he made me to be, and who I am in the spirit connected to him in that realm.

485. Having Our Minds Renewed

And therefore, when I began to experience that, it was as if my spiritual memory of who I was and what I was doing before I came into this realm got remapped over the memory of who I am here, to bring me back into alignment with that. So that everything that I am here that does not align to who I was created to be there can be renewed, removed and transformed. It is pure.

Psalm 139, “You are fearfully and wonderfully made”, that is a poetic description of being in the eternal now, having been created in the eternal now and having engaged God’s thoughts. Sometimes it feels like perichoresis is a kind of spinning in the presence of Father, Son and Spirit, as if you are within the midst of that relational life. There is also a sense where there is a conversation that Father, Son and Spirit had in creating me that I can join in with, or listen to, as God’s thoughts about me.

448. The Truth of Who We Are

“How vast are the thoughts he has about me”, as Psalm 139 says. I engage those thoughts in that place, not intellectually but experientially. It is a knowing at a much deeper level than intellectual information about who I am. I begin to know who I am. And then anything that is not aligned to who I am in this realm is open to change, because I do not want to be shaped by my life here, by conditioning, programming, experiences, trauma or anything else. Who I am in God’s heart and in his thinking determines who I am in this realm and how I live, rather than my experience of life.

That then changes my experience of life and renews my mind to come into agreement with who I really am. People call it their perfected self or their original self, and there are many names for it online. I think these are valid ways of describing it, because it is that pure essence of who I am in relationship to who he is.

What I found is that it is so pure and relational that I do not think about anything other than the purity of that relationship. I do not feel anything other than that. It is as if life here does not exist there. Of course, it does exist, and experiences there affect life here, but there I am not thinking about what I am doing today, what I did yesterday or what I will do tomorrow. There is no thought of doing anything. It is a pure state of being.

430. Being You | The Heart of Your Relationship With God

Process of transformation

God does have a desire for the outworking of his kingdom, the government of peace in this realm, and that reflects his desire for this world. So we have what we call heaven, and heaven is made up of different realms: kingdom of God, kingdom of heaven, heaven, heaven of heavens, perfection and eternity. This is not the eternal now itself, but the closest connection to it, the highest place of ascension we can experience in the physical realm in relationship to that non-physical realm, or that spiritual place of pure God.

I found that God took me through a process after I began to experience him purely. He led me through a process of transformation that changed everything from my soul perspective, where I had learned to relate to the world I live in here, which is shaped by experience, fear, concern, worry, anxiety and everything attached to what happens in the soul. What we have learned about this realm comes from the outside in. Our understanding of reality is shaped by information and experience.

So when you begin to experience the purity of God, you cannot remain the same. Life has shaped us here, and then God reshapes us, restoring us back to the original blueprint of our design, as described in the Mirror Bible, so that we can live that way here and be transformed, healed and made whole from everything that has negatively affected us.

There has to be a way of experiencing that. So God took me into a dark cloud of encounter with him. I went through a difficult process in which I came to the point of surrendering my soul, my right to be me in this realm, so that he could bring me into alignment with who I really am and bring those into agreement.

Then I saw God face to face. It says that God hides within a dark cloud. There is a perspective that in this created universe we cannot face God face to face because of the purity of his light. Anything from this realm cannot stand there. Anything that is not true cannot remain in the perfection of truth. It cannot remain a lie in that level of truth.

459. The Dark Cloud 1 | Why Would God Hide From Us?

There is a sense where God wanted me to experience him in this realm, related to who he is in that pure essence, but in a more governmental way. Still pure relationship, but also the outworking of his heart in this realm, whereas in the eternal now there can be no problems: everything is now and within God.

8. The Sword Comes to Divide

Mike Parsons

For the word of God is living and active and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing as far as the division of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart (Heb 4:12).

This passage is not talking about the Bible, despite what we may have been taught. This sword of the Spirit, the word of God, is going to divide our soul and our spirit. It is going to divide what is of the flesh, what is of the soul, and what is of the spirit in our lives, and in the church, and the world. This is the living word spoken into our hearts by the Holy Spirit. He may use scriptures, especially if that is a way we are used to hearing from Him; He may not.

The sword is coming

The sword is coming to our lives, and we cannot avoid it. It is coming from the mouth of Jesus. It is going to divide the thoughts and intentions of our hearts. It is going to show us what our hearts are engaged with, and it isn’t going to be easy, but it is going to transform us and the world in which we live.

The sword is coming to the church. Not just this church, but the church, and it is coming to cause division: ‘Who are for me, and who are against me?’ It will cause division because there is so much of the church that isn’t really the church, it is just people who go along to church.

Church is not a building, we know that, but it’s not a meeting either. The church is a people called out and gathered to meet with the presence of the living God and to serve Him. In charismatic circles we jettisoned the idea that church was about buildings years ago, but then it became about meetings, about going to the meeting. Actually it is nothing to do with meetings, it is about Him, and is about who we are: we are His people and church is 24/7. It is about who we are every day of the week, in our jobs, in our homes, in our neighbourhoods.

A level of holiness

And God is bringing a sword to the church. We need to get ready so that we are prepared to see what God is going to release. We have got to see into that supernatural realm of what is to come. We need to be prepared to be transformed, because if our lives remain in the state they are in now, then when the glory of God starts coming we will not be able to bear it.

I tell you, Ananias and Sapphira couldn’t lie to the Holy Spirit without dropping down dead. I don’t want anyone dropping down dead around here, but the level of holiness required for the church of Jesus Christ to perform the works of Jesus in the world is far higher than the level of holiness we are living in right now. Levels of relationship and responsibility are going to increase, and at the new level God is calling us to, a new level of His presence, there is a corresponding new level of holiness required. What we could get away with before, we will not be able to get away with in what is coming.

And God is going to open up and reveal those things to us. We have to be prepared. We have to be prepared to act. We cannot sit here and do nothing.

We have to be prepared for warfare, because warfare is coming, and what we see today is nothing compared to what we are going to see. We have to be prepared to be ambassadors for the kingdom of heaven on earth. We cannot live by the ways and means of the world; we have to be in it but we cannot be of it. We have to live by the kingdom, and the presence and the power of the kingdom of God. We are ambassadors to bring heaven on earth.

Bring heaven to earth

That is our commission, to bring heaven to earth. As it is in heaven, so it is on earth, through our lives. That’s what God is calling us to. We have to be prepared to be revealed as sons of God, who are going to shine with glory. Because Jesus was transfigured here on earth, that means we can be transfigured here on earth. People are not going to know what to make of it when the glory of God starts shining out of us visibly. But Jesus did it as a demonstration of what we are to do. What did He say? ‘These works that I do, you will do also, and greater things than these’ (John 14:12). Greater things: there’s a whole load more that we will have to grow into. We have to be prepared to take dominion.

God called Adam and Eve to take dominion over the planet. Satan took that from them, Jesus came to restore it. We have to be prepared to operate in the ways of God’s kingdom.

‘Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven’.
