Jesus’s Times Alone with the Father

This morning I was thinking of Jesus- how when He walked this Earth, He rally had no time for Himself to get away from others to be alone with the Father and Holy Spirit.   Even while with His disciples, He needed that time alone.. and so He often withdrew to a hillside apart from others in prayer.   I imagine Him climbing a hillside really early in the morning before everyone was awake, just to spend time with the Father.     Isaiah 50:4 reads:  “The Lord GOD hath given me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to him that is weary: he wakeneth morning by morning, he wakeneth mine ear to hear as the learned.”

How beautiful those morning prayers must have been!  More than likely some of His disciples.. perhaps John.. woke up early enough to see Him walking down the hillside all aglow with the Holy Spirit reflecting upon His face- just like Moses before the Isrealites, and this prompted them to ask their Teacher, “Lord, teach us to pray”.

Jesus also prayed for His disciples and the people during those alone times with the Father..    He told Peter how satan had desired to sift Peter as wheat, but that He had prayed for him that his faith would not fail him. In Matthew 14:23, we read, “And when he had sent the multitudes away, he went up into a mountain apart to pray: and when the evening was come, he was there alone.”

No doubt, there were those times at night after everyone fell asleep, that Jesus also prayed with His Father under the stars, thanking Him for being with Him and interceding for others.        When He looked at the stars, I wonder if He thought about all the souls that those stars represent.. all those children of Abraham that the Father showed Abraham he would have to the end of the age… stars as countless as the sands on the seashore.

I asked the Lord if He had anything for me to add to this as I meditated on Him this morning, and this is what I blindly opened to from His words in “He and I” :     “While Moses prayed on the mountain, His arms raised toward  Heaven, the armies fighting in the plain won the victory- but when he grew weary of asking, the men on the field lost ground.   God wants a mediator.  He wanted even His Christ.  You, my brothers, continue My work…”  ♥

Jesus- Our Sacrifice of Love

At the Foot of His Cross-

recent vision shared by Debbie Hollland and posted on the Heart Dwelling With Jesus WordPress blog

I feel that you should post this for the other Heart dwellers as it was life changing for me.  Please pray about it x ….

I was with the Lord last night and it was a very difficult meeting as I saw Him going to the Cross and then I watched Him being nailed to the beams.  I had to watch His agony it was excruciating for me and I knew what I was seeing was only a small fraction of what He was going through.  I wanted to comfort Him but there was nothing I could do only BE THERE with Him.   It was so horrible and my spirit was VERY UNCOMFORTABLE  in this visit.

About 2 weeks ago I had a similar visit where I saw Him lying on His front and His back was a bloody mess and I could see His Ribs – I cried and cried as I watched His agony.  It was so gruesome.  Satan clearly gave Him everything he could throw at Him as He allowed Himself to be our Sacrifice.  Satan knowing He would not retaliate enjoyed hurting Fathers Greatest LOVE.  Vengeful and hateful.  There was so much blood and torn muscles – it looked like a horror movie.

Last night I saw His face contorted in AGONY and heard His cries………………..in the end I had to turn away from this vision as I couldn’t bear it and I asked Him to please stop showing it to me.  At the same time I knew He was telling me I NEEDED to see this.
At that point I looked back and He was now up on the cross and quieter now and He asked me to come forward.  I stood at His feet and looked up.   He then showed me without words all the things in ME He died for……I was looking up at the time of MY OWN REDEMPTION not yours or anyone else’s just MINE.  There is a divine time where each of us is stood at the foot of the Cross and watching our own redemption.  Working out our salvation in fear and trembling.

He showed me a huge list of sin PRIDE – BITTERNESS – VENGEFULNESS – HATRED – MURDER – LIES – COMPROMISE – DISHONESTY – DUPLICITY – FEAR – UNBELIEF – SELFISHNESS.   The list went on and on and I saw it in myself and I saw Him suffering for me and atoning for me.

It was a very cleansing visit and I never fully saw myself through His eyes in such a deep way before.  It is a good thing I feel for all of us to come to the foot of the Cross and see OURSELVES AND OUR SINS BEING ATONED FOR.  The Cross of Yeshua is the door into Heaven the secret place that we go through to enter into HIM.

I always thought that my sins where THINGS that I had done to offend Abba Father or things I had done to hurt His Children….but last night He showed me that it was the CONDITION OF MY HEART that He was dying for and that the things I had done were THE ISSUES OF THAT ROTTEN HEART……..merely an expression of what was deeply diseased and disordered in me because of what Satan had done at the fall.

Our Hearts have to be RIGHT before Him so that they can enter into the Kingdom of Heaven.    The sins are easy to deal with but the HEART IS THE TREASURE WE OFFER TO YESHUA  and it must be an acceptable offering to Him.

Please come before the Cross and offer up the Heart for cleansing and purification to Jesus.  Brides get ready for Your Bridegroom.  He requires clean hearts from his Eternal Brides.
