SECRETS OF A GOD CHASER
This is everything! The passion, the pain, the frustration...the raw seek and undying love without inhibition of a God Chaser...seeking His face like never before!
DANIEL 2:22 &47
HE REVEALETH THE DEEP AND SECRET THINGS: HE KNOWETH WHAT IS IN THE DARKNESS, AND THE LIGHT DWELLETH WITH HIM.
THE KING ANSWERED UNTO DANIEL, AND SAID, OF A TRUTH IT IS, THAT YOUR GOD IS A GOD OF GODS, AND A LORD OF KINGS, AND A REVEALER OF SECRETS, SEEING THOU COULDEST REVEAL THIS SECRET. 
   Matthew 10:26
fear them not therefore: for there is nothing covered that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known.
what i tell you in darkness, that speak ye in the light: and what ye hear in the ear, that preach ye upon the housetops.

​ REVELATION 3:14 STUDY GUIDE NOTES CHURCH OF LAODICEANS
And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write: These things saith the amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;
The Spirit of God mentions the Lord as the amen to mean the end result “so be it”. He is speaking through the spirit of faithfulness and truth to this church because this church refuses to make a true commitment to the Most High. They have a form of godliness, yet they deny the Power of God. They say with their mouths that they love the Lord and are called by his name, but with their actions, their hearts are far from him.
I know thy works that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.
This church cannot make a decision to choose Jesus Christ as their Savior and to trust him no matter the situation or circumstance. They are partly worldly not willing to surrender completely to do what thus saith the Lord. The Word said that we cannot serve two masters. We cannot serve God and the world. We will love the one and hate the other. Be servants of Christ only. He said come all who labor and are heavy laden for his yoke is easy and his burden is light.
Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing, and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eye-salve, that thou mayest see.
With actions of unbelief and doubt we begin to operate on our own authority. It is fleshly. The worldly church of Christianity operates on a system of money, power, and respect. They operate based on prestige. The walk in the wisdom of the world and store up treasures on Earth. It has become sensual and demonic. In their hearts they say their rich by what they have built up for themselves in the flesh and on outward appearance. They feel like they have “arrived”. However, spiritually they are bankrupt. They are lacking Fruits of the Spirit and true purified love of God that covers a multitude of sins. They are spiritually blinded to see that they need the Holy Spirit to complete them and refine them with fire to cleanse them from the inside-out. They need joy and peace that comes with the Prince of Peace. They buy things (covetous practices) just because of the lusts of the flesh, but the Lord by His Spirit says to come buy of him gold tried in the fire. Come get purified and transformed by the renewing of the mind that you may be spiritually rich and have treasures stored up in Heaven. Spiritual treasures where no thief nor robber can take or where rust nor moth can corrupt. His Spirit gives good gifts that are incorruptible.
Isaiah 1:18
Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow, though they be red as crimson, they shall be as wool. If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land.
He said he would give white raiment though our sins be as crimson. The blood of Jesus cleans and makes us white as snow. The white raiment is “proper attire” for the wedding.
Matthew 22:9
Go ye therefore unto the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the marriage. And when the King came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not own a wedding garment. And he saith unto him, friend, how camest thou hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless.
We must be covered by the Holy Sprit to be kept and to endure these perilous times. He is our righteousness. He will shield and clothe us so that our shame does not appear on the day of visitation.
Matthew 13:13-15
Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand. And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith; by hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive: For this peoples heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
For these reasons the Lord Jesus is compelling his church to anoint their eyes so that they may really see spiritually what his will is and be complete in him before he returns for his church. He also compels us to get our heart right because the heart has us act on what we see and hear. If our heart is not in line with the Spirit of God, then we don’t perceive what the Lord is spiritually attempting to reveal to his chosen. Thus is his statement fulfilled in 1 Corinthians 2:9.
But as it is written, eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.
These things are given by the Spirit of God and we compare spiritual with spiritual.
II Corinthians 4:1-5
Therefore seeing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we faint not; but have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the Word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God. But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost. In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not; lest the light of the glorious Gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them. For we preach not ourselves but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus sake.
This church has one foot in the world and one foot out and because of their indecisiveness the Lord uses Paul in his letter to the Corinthians to speak the Word concerning this ministry. He shares that the Lord has been merciful in given a ministry and commands that we faint not. Do not give in to the cares of the world. Do not faint at the trials and tests. Do not faint and think it a shame to suffer for the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.
 We don’t want to handle the Word deceitful or with craftiness in order to gain the respect and approval of man. We don’t need to add to or take away from the true Word of God to meet the standards of the religious sector. He shared that those that do this deceive their own selves and are blind. They hide their light to those that are lost when in fact they are supposed to use the light to compel men and women to come to the Lord Jesus Christ. They preach prosperity messages and feed into the world system falsehood message theory of money, power, and respect. They run church like a business, and they refuse to allow the Holy Spirit to do the works. We should surrender completely and overcome the falsehood, deception, and covetous practices.
II Corinthians 5:2-3
For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from Heaven. If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked.
The Lord has made us a house us a house unto him, a house not made with hands. Our spirit man has a great desire with earnestness of Spirit to be clothed upon and to be accepted of him. There is more required of us. We must present ourselves a living sacrifice unto the Lord, holy and acceptable that we may be without spot or wrinkle and blameless at the Lord’s coming.
As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Be zealous therefore and repent. Behold, I stand at the door and knock: If any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
Hear what the Spirit of the Lord has to say. Despise not the chastening of the Lord. He corrects those he loves so that they may understand and perceive what the will of the Lord is. Blessed is the man who is not offended in him. He desires that we all come to the knowledge of him and repent. The Lord is a gentleman. He will not force himself upon us. He loves us so much that he is willing to do whatever necessary to “by all means save some”. He looks past our faults to meet our needs. Though we are wretched we are greatly in need of his righteousness. Therefore, He knocks at the doors of our heart with hope that we will receive him forever. Many are called, but few are chosen. His sheep know his voice and are known of him. He says those who receive him will sup with him. If you sup with him. You will eat of the whole loaf. We will not take pieces and deny the Power of God.
To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and set down with my Father in his throne. He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
It is interesting that the Lord mentions that to him that overcometh he will allow them to sit in his throne because those within this particular church are attempting to build their own kingdom with their actions. These are the mega church go-ers and the private jet-setters that often want to be seen and heard of men. However, Jesus said we must overcome and we will share the throne with him and the Father.
