"Sleep"
Distant noise infiltrates gradually distracting
attention from peaceful pleasant repose.
Attempts to ignore the
intrusion grow increasing futile.
Becoming more conscious of
the noise, I return to the physical and my eyes open to determine
its origin.
Do I really need pay it
attention? Is it raining? Does it matter?
Do we live in two worlds?
Where is life?
Waking I reluctantly submit
to the heavy physical cloak. Flesh, bones, and desire yearn for
invigoration. For how much longer must I endure this burden?
With every cycle of night
and day in the physical world I am interrupted by gravity and
physical heaviness. Pulled toward earth I have no choice but to
submit.
Looking up through the
window I behold fluttering lush green tree leaves outside. It must
be Summer I think as I attempt return to the spirit dream estate.
Rolling over I adjust the
covers revealing more skin to properly comfort my body quickly
returning to the dreams I prefer.
Later, waking again I know
not of time passing. It could be day or night, Winter, Spring,
Summer, or Fall. It matters not to me. Betwixt and between spirit
and physical I yearn to return to spirit rest.
The realm where I thrive
will continue in my absence as I serve in the lower heavy realms.
Many there are yet unaware of the heavenly state from whence we
come. They yet slumber in darkness as their spirit’s yearn to be
awakened.
The dawning of day provides
precious opportunity to enlighten another soul to it’s true free
destiny. And so I emerge once again physically. Not for me but for
them.
As sure as earth’s sun
dawns, gravity extracts it’s due cause and I am again encased in
physical cloak. “Remember your instructions” I proclaim to whatever
is myself as I struggle against the inevitable draw of physical
world.
I now yield to gravity and
three dimensions of time passing to again submit to the offending
torrent of opposition. Becoming conscious of my body I am reminded
of love and willingly submit.
I am me yet imbued by the
Spirit enjoined in the delight of the place from whence we
originate. Thus I gladly yield and awaken to the dawn of the
worlds sun. Invigorated in the Spirit I rise and inhabit the
physical world.
Time in the dream state does
not pass in like fashion to the physical world.
Where exactly do we exist?
Plant life lives in air with branches reaching up toward the
sunlight and also deep in the earth with roots reaching toward
water. Both equally necessary for sustenance.
Life yet exists betwixt and
between two worlds struggling in the realm of time and light and
simultaneously in the spirit world seeking deeply for equal
nurture.
Sleep is given us to quell
the physical and provide nourishment in the spirit. With periodic
episodes of sleep we exist in both worlds for a season. Were it not
for sleep, our physical bodies would become consumed through lust
for pleasure.
Why we sleep isn’t hard to
understand from the physical perspective. Physical bodies require
restoration. Life in the fallen physical world is actually death in
animation. Striving against opposition is exhausting. Though
invigorated by God's Spirit, the physical realm is ruled by God’s
enemy, Satan.
There would be no sleep nor
rest were it not for God’s Christ going to the cross and dying in
our stead. Each night of sleep, God’s grace is parceled out until
He returns for us. The time of His suffering and death provided the
needed rest for humanity to survive the period of time on earth till
His return.
Necessity of day and night
and sleep is evidenced in the contrast of life before and after
creation, the sleep that befell Adam when God separated the one
making two, and the blindness Paul experienced when encountering
Jesus on the road to Damascus receiving the message of God’s grace.
Life on earth is only a
temporary stopping point in God’s great plan for life. It is as if
along the way, God's car pulls over to the side of the road to fix a
flat tire. Soon we will be back on the road of eternity never to
have a flat tire again.
In God’s original heaven
prior to earth, we existed in potential form. To be fully
manifested, God had to originate us in the foundational depths of
His possible creation and bring us back to Him through passage of
time overcoming darkness and Satan’s deception.
Other created beings exist
in God’s heaven but they are not of the free will nature He gave
mankind. God intends to populate the universe with free will
entitled beings imbued with His nature made in His image. We return
to Him from Him freely by choice.
The entire universe awaits
us as our permanent abode. Once the physical world is rid of
Satanic rule it will be forever sealed and relegated to eternal
darkness. Our destiny is eternal life in light. There will be no
more death nor suffering. We shall be free abounding in light and
unlimited expression of joy and love in praise of our creator God.
Sleep vs Awake: 05/06/06
We live in two worlds simultaneously… as the plant lives in light
above ground and darkness below the ground… so do we live in two
worlds simultaneously… we walk in the light and sleep in the
darkness… we perceive the natural world with our physical senses
and in our soul we experience the spirit… we dream, hope, fear,
aspire, and are inspired by both realms… the mind and the heart…
often at odds though through God’s Spirit renewed mind finds great
delight contemplating heart and mind in agreement… the renewed mind
illuminated by God’s Word is free to traverse depths of delight and
love foreign to natural man.
We are dead men walking… declared dead at the cross when we faced
the ultimate judgment for sin, God’s Son bore the penalty for our
sin… the great exchange… death of the spotless lamb in exchange
for the life of the sinner…
Waking from dreams we face onslaught of opposition… the
natural world ruled by God’s enemy, Satan… every waking second
vexes the Spirit… sin reigns here… the world’s system
arrogantly and proudly parades around as if it actually had defeated
God.
The entire construct of the world is a grotesque façade of the real
life God intended… it was hijacked in the Garden before Adam
and Eve had their first offspring… Satan had to gain control
of the race immediately in order to establish his lordship over
God’s man. He proudly thumbed his nose in the face of God….
Ever since then, mankind was cut off from God’s immediate presence
and became lost in the darkness of flesh controlled impulses…
Satan’s message is now conveyed to us day in day out through secular
humanism, false religion, socialist media, all with the goal of one
world government… as America was once the great melting pot where
people from all nations came together to live freely, Satan’s one
world government will be the ultimate expression of his false
version of heaven.
Sleep vs Awake: 05/28/07
There’s a hole in the universe…
When Lucifer was repelled from God’s presence, the breach of heaven
formed a hole in the fabric of the entire universe. That wound
descending from beginning of time, carried through it a thread
cascading throughout time, space, and everything that ever had and
ever would exist. The blood stained crimson thread is the gospel of
Jesus Christ our Savior Who came from heaven to take us all back to
heaven.
Where was once perpetual light, now exists light AND darkness! Turn
a sphere inside out and you find inverted trumpet shaped vortices,
black holes of imploding matter, immeasurable gigantic hydrogen
fusion balls aflame suspended throughout a formerly potentially
existent infinite blackness now host of the universe where Satan
will face absolute judgment wherein he will be forever relegated and
sealed to never disturb God’s kingdom again.
This universe we temporarily inhabit is our view of the mind of God
in physical expression. No limit to its expanse. It is the macro
manifestation of the micro of the physical. Atomic structure in
magnificent macro expression as displayed upon the screen of the
eye’s retina. We gasp in awe beholding the glorious wonder of it
all.
God is present throughout having full knowledge, purpose for and
control of every element and subatomic particle in manifestation.
Made in His image, we behold it all through the lens of eye
challenged to account for and respond to our purpose in His grand
plan for life.
Thus we find ourselves confined to physical life on earth suspended
perfectly place in orbit around the Sun totally dependent upon Him.
Because of His perfect plan, physical life exists in the dark
inhospitable universe with every need met to sustain us.
Unlike our former estate in heaven, on earth we have day AND night.
Creation experiences light for half of its existence and dark for
the other half. Equal time. Why equal? When Lucifer rebelled and
fell, 1/3 of the heavenly host were deceived and fell with him. Man
spends 1/3 of his life in sleep and 2/3 awake.
The 1/3 of sleep is evidence of the death of Jesus. God is Father,
Son, and Holy Spirit. All equally God yet with unique attributes.
Jesus, as 1/3 of God’s trinity suffered and died on the cross that
we could be forgiven by His sacrifice in our stead and legally
declared righteous by God.
Thus in a manner, we die each night… thus God’s mercies are new
every morning!
Science can find no reason why we should exist at all nor how it’s
possible that life itself exists in this universe. It’s a miracle
that we ever awake from sleep let alone even exist in the first
place!
Do you see that He’s keeping us alive? He’s keeping us alive despite
our sin and has forgiven our sins through the sacrifice of His Son
Jesus Christ! If Jesus hadn’t gone to the cross in our stead,
we all would go to the cross and be lost in our sins forever
expelled from heaven.
The wages of sin is death. Without the shedding of blood there
is no remission of sin. As sinners, we exist in a virtual state of
death, miraculously kept alive by the mercy of God. In order
to be made righteous there must be an acceptable sacrifice.
Death of a sinner will not make that sinner nor any other sinner
righteous. There must be sacrifice of a spotless lamb to cover
the sin of a sinner. God’s 100% pure light and perfection will
not permit anything other that what is perfect to exist in His inner
sanctum of heaven.
Thus the sacrifice of The One Who knew no sin and went to the cross
in our place to die the death He did not deserve, rose to heaven
welcomed by God, and poured out His spirit so that we could have the
eternal life we do not deserve!
