The Deliverer

Aspects of the Prophetic Office - The DelivererBy Lars Widerberg1. Salvation is wholly of God. He alone is the author and perfecter of our faith, Hebr 12:1-2. God is certainly our redeemer, and he will return to Zion to deliver his people, Isa 59:20. Indeed, there is no other name given unto man, through which he will be able to obtain relief. No other method are valid in securing forgiveness and the deliverance from sin than the method of divine substitution, Lev 17:11. No sacrifice will satisfy the demands of God almighty than the one given once and for all at the Cross, Heb 9.Yet, salvation is a matter of careful examination and inquiry. Salvation is substantial. Salvation is meant to bring tangible results. Redemption and deliverance set up sharp and clear borderlines. So does the process of sanctification. Salvation is to be practically applied and worked out, Phil 2:12. Examination and inquiry. Within what limits can I expect God to operate? What does He want to accomplish? How does He do it? How am I to be involved? Salvation is to be prayed for, while probing and searching the rich and long texts of prescriptions and promises.

This is a quote from Pastor Henry Wright's book " A More Excellent Way." "I'm going to tell you that there is a revival coming to this planet, and there is a revival coming to this nation, but it will not be the type of revival that you think it is.The revival coming is one of SANCTIFICATION and PURIFICATION. I will tell you with all the authority of my heart that I can know, that the only waythat it will be ushered inis the same way it was ushered in the first time: by the Lord when He came. The healing of diseases, the casting out of evil spirits, and the establishment of His graceand His mercy-you can go and read about it from Romans to Jude.A lot of people struggle with this: how come we didn't see healing of diseases and the great teaching of healing of diseases and casting out of evil sdpirits after Acts?The reason for that is this: Matthew, Mark, Luke, John are the Lord showing us God's power through Christover evil in spite of sin-all to demonstrate God's love for us.Acts demonstrated the early Churches power over the same thing.After the demonstration was done, it's sanctificationfrom Romans to Jude.Without sanctification, you can't have Matthew, Mark, Luke, John and the book of Acts happening at all. It's not gonna happen.When you have Romans to Jude in your life the blessings will come; the showers of blessing will come. Then the knowledge of God will flow, because God's not going to bless disobediant children long term.I have had to learn this the hard way.Would it be a fair exchange, obedience for disease? Would it be a fair exchange, sanctification for disease? Would it be a fair exchange, obedience for insanity? Would it be a fair exchange,trust in God for fear and anxiety? Would it be a fair exchange to believe and receive God's love versusan unloving, uncleanspirit of self hatred? Would it be a fair exchange to forgive your brother in exchange for the healing of cancer? Would it be a fair exchange to deal with anger and fear in exchange for a heart attack?THIS IS A MORE EXCELLENT WAY"!Clutch :-)

10. Deliverance brings you face to face with a thorough re-evaluation, most certainly in relation to the position God has been allowed to have in your life. He will break away from the pattern established which rules in favour with the old nature. The Cross killed Christ, and it is going to kill every sinner. It dethrones you and installs the Lord on the throne of your heart. This is what we find at the core of the prophetic dimension.Prophets bring the people back to reality, back to order. Their message calls the people to build the Temple and to forsake their own comfort. Words focusing on personal affluence distract and confuse the aim of the people of the Lord. The law of sacrifice cannot be compromised. The altar has to be restored. Elijah confronts the prophets of Baal, and their message of prosperity. Haggai rebukes the minds set on building mansions on earth. Esra restores the dignity of a nation by forcefully preaching moral law. Man brought back to God is man brought back to servanthood. Poor nations are those who have a Church where God is treated as a waiter. Deliverance brings order. Deliverance is the beginning of God’s holiness made to be seen among his people.
