NOTE: This is NOT a Summons Message. This is one of a series of questions given to Ruben during visits to Heaven. Today’s question is from Yeshua during a visit in Heaven with Ruben, the Messenger.
For The Journey and Ruben,
Judy
The question: “Are we not supposed to be coming against spirits, fighting against spirits? (Ephesians 6:10-12below). But yet we blame each other. Come against each other. We forget to acknowledge what we have learned time after time after time. It slips away, it slips away what we’re supposed to learn. It’s very sad that we can go higher—men and women who have a powerful title—that we can learn more, study more, be anointed more, be strengthened more, get more love; yet we still fight against one another.
“Where is the forgiveness? Where is the love? Is it not said, ‘If your brother wrongs you, go and show him his fault, between you and him privately. If he listens to you, you have won back your brother?’ (Matthew 18:15 AMPC). What is wrong with going to your sister or brother, tell them how you feel, let them tell you how they feel and forgive one another? What is wrong with that? Is that not what you have been taught? But we keep all the bitterness and hatred inside, we right no wrong. We say, ‘but they’re just pitiful! They’re doing so many things wrong!’ Ohhh—how quick we are to have judgements! But we forget what we speak; do not realize what we’re saying. But what are we doing that is wrong? Are we supposed to just do as we’ve been doing because they’re supposed to know they’re wrong?
“So where is the mercy? Where is the love? So where are those who will go and talk with their brother or sister? Will you just keep it inside yourself for days and weeks and months and years? Just keep it inside? Let it eat you up all this time? Hatred? Bitterness? That’s what we do! And yet we go on praying and singing, and asking God for this and that; but we haven’t made it right with our brother or sister! Whether they’re wrong and we’re right, or they’re right and we’re wrong, it doesn’t matter! But they have not made it right and they go on. Forgetting that all the time they go on focusing on being led by the Spirit—that’s their way of thinking. ‘By the way, we’re operating in the gifts, right? We’re hanging in there, as long as we’re operating in the gifts everything’s going to be okay.’ But deep inside, deep inside we’re holding things against our brother, our sister because we never gave them a chance to talk. ‘Well, I still wave to them.’ Yes, you do. But did you ever go talk to them like the Bible says? Are we too good? Are we too good to go forth with God Who brought them salvation and say, ‘we need to talk, okay? Whether I’m wrong or right it doesn’t matter. I don’t know what happened. We were close together at one time, and we have to acknowledge that we’re not supposed to be against each other, but against spirits that the Bible teaches us come against us daily.’
“Darkness. Evil. So the enemy knows he can push this and push that, and poke this and poke that to come against one another! He’s going to do it! But we go on! We go on! Without realizing that we’re going to be accountable for that. But most of all is this, most of all is this—the gates are narrow! There’s no way out of it. The gates are narrow.”
But the Lord asks: “What do you think? If you read what I have spoken in My Word daily, and you apply it daily, but yet in your heart you never asked for forgiveness? It’s that missing piece for that person. You say it publicly, you say it secretly, but never to that person. Judgement! Judgement, I say unto all people—Judgement! Give heed to My Word! My Word does not return void! It does not go back, is not erased. It is sealed. I say what I say. I do what I do. I mean what I mean. Love. Love.”
Ruben then said: I got so wrapped up in that moment, wow! Of all the teachers in schools, Bible schools; of all professors, He uses someone simple like myself, not to teach it, but to share it, to explain. He says, “Go and share. But most of all do they honor this? See if they go forth and do whatever they have to do.”
Ruben continued sharing: Someday everyone will be able to be a part of that school (in Heaven) and have all the professors, John Paul Jackson, Bob Jones, Apostle Paul, and others instructing us. But in the meantime, the Father wants us to take heed to this word because we have to be pure. Our hearts have to be pure because the Father is looking for a pure Bride for His Son. So unforgiveness, discord, contentions and such things have to go from our hearts. We can’t harbor these things and think because we do everything else right that we’re okay. The Father is looking for pure hearts.
Scriptures to ponder:
“Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.”
Ephesians 6:10-12 NKJV
“I will not talk with you much more, for the prince (evil genius, ruler) of the world is coming. And he has no claim on Me. [He has nothing in common with Me; there is nothing in Me that belongs to him, and he has no power over Me.]” John 14:30 AMPC
“Blessed are the pure in heart, For they shall see God.”
Matthew 5:8 NKJV
“A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another.”
John 13:34 NKJV
”Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few.” Matthew 7:13-14 ESV
