Enjoy God as the One who is, who was, and who is coming, and as the Sevenfold Intensified Spirit

The experience and enjoyment of the Divine Trinity in full are consummated by the One who is, who was, and who is coming, by the seven Spirits (the sevenfold intensified Spirit), and by Jesus Christ, the faithful Witness, the Firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth (Rev. 1:4-5). Hallelujah!

God wants us to enjoy and experience the Divine Trinity in full, and this has a consummation, as seen in the book of Revelation.

God doesn’t want us to enjoy His peace, His love, and His care; He doesn’t want man to merely know Him as the Almighty One, the sovereign One, the One who rules and reigns over all things.

God wants us, His people, to enjoy Him, partake of Him, and experience Him; the Triune God wants to dispense Himself in His Divine Trinity into man so that man would experience and enjoy the Divine Trinity in full. Amen!

God created man in His image and according to His likeness so that man would be filled with God, enjoy God, and experience God; if we just open to the Lord, if we simply say Amen to His speaking and inner working, the Divine Trinity will fill our being with Himself. Hallelujah!

When God gives Himself to us for our enjoyment and experience, He is not stingy; He gives all that He is to us. God the Father dwells in unapproachable light, and no one has seen Him, for whoever comes near to God needs to be as holy as He is.

But the Son came to manifest God; God the Son was incarnated to be the embodiment of grace to man, for man to know who God is, what God is like, and how much God loves man.

But where is Christ today, and how can we contact Him or enjoy Him?

Christ went through death and resurrection to become a life-giving Spirit, and He comes to us in and as the Spirit of reality, the all-inclusive, life-giving, compound Spirit, to make all that God as love and Christ as grace real to us in our experience.

When we repent and believe into the Lord, we are connected to the circulation of the Divine Trinity, who flows constantly; now we believers in Christ are those in the flow of life, those who enjoy the divine flow of life. Hallelujah!

We just need to open to Him; He is flowing within us, but we need to turn our heart to Him and say Amen to His inner speaking, to His flow.

As we do this, as we open to the Lord by calling on His name, the Triune God flows in us in His Divine Trinity to saturate our inner being with Himself so that He lives in us and is expressed through us.

May we be those who enjoy and experience the Divine Trinity in full for the fulfillment of God’s eternal purpose in man!

Experience God the Father as the One who is, who was, and who is Coming, the great I AM

We need to experience God the Father as the One who is, who was, and who is coming, the great I am (Rev. 1:4); this is the meaning of the name Jehovah – I am who I am (Exo. 3:14, 6).

The experience and enjoyment of the Divine Trinity in full are consummated by the One who is, who was, and who is coming. This is God Himself, God the Father.

If we are so inclined or tempted, we may want to take a mental trip or do research into what is the origin of God – when did He begin, what is His origin.

We can trace the universe back to its origin, which is God’s creation, but even before the universe began, God is.

God doesn’t have beginning or end: He simply is; He was, He is, and He will be, for He is the reality of being, the reality of the expression, “I AM”.

When we realize that God is the great I AM, that He is and was and is coming, we will realize that we are not; He is, and we are not.

His being the I AM signifies that He is the One who exists from eternity to eternity. God is the only One who is, the only One who has the reality of being.

If we come to God, if we want to know God and experience Him, we must believe that He is (Heb. 11:6) and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.

We, men, can seek God; He put eternity in our heart, and there’s a deep seeking in us for God, the One who is and was and is coming.

God doesn’t just exist; man exists, the animals exist, the plants exist, and angels exist, for creatures exist, but God IS – He simply is.

This breaks through the limitations of our mind and brings us to exercise our spirit, for God can be apprehended, contacted, and experienced only in our spirit.

According to Heb. 11:6, God is, and we must believe that He is.

What does it mean that God is? This means that, as the One who is, who was, and who is coming, God is the self-existing One and the ever-existing One, the One whose being depends on nothing apart from Himself, and the One who exists eternally, having neither beginning nor ending (Exo. 3:14).

We are here today but gone tomorrow, and even our memory will fade away; God simply is, without the need of anyone to support Him or uphold Him – He is, He exists eternally, and He depends on nothing apart from Himself. Wow.

This is mind-blowing; our finite mind understands things that exist today and is disappointed that these things are not there in 1 month or one year, but how can it understand that God simply is, no matter what? If we truly realize that God is, we will also realize that He is and we are not.

The fact that God is implies that we are not; He is everything and we are nothing, He has the reality of being and we exist because of Him, and He is but we are not.

Such a vision will humble us, for the great I AM is, but we are not; yet we are because of Him, we live because of Him, and we exist because He is in us and with us.

It is such a liberation to realize that we are nothing, we have nothing, we know nothing, and we can do nothing, but God is the One who was and who is and who is coming – He simply is.

We are not, but He is everything; we have Him in us as the all-inclusive One, the life-giving Spirit who supplies us with everything we need so that we may enjoy and experience the Divine Trinity in full.

The realization that God is and we are not will liberate us; we will no longer be disappointed with ourselves or with others, and nothing will cause us to be discouraged, for we have no more expectations of ourselves or of others.

We simply abide in the Lord and enjoy what comes out of Him to richly supply us; everything we need is in the vine, and we are glad to be nothing but a branch abiding and enjoying.

He must be the only one, the unique one in everything, and we must be nothing in everything (Heb. 11:5; Gen. 5:22-24).

One day it will dawn on us that we really are nothing and God is everything, and we will praise and thank the Lord.

If we don’t see it, it’s ok, we don’t have to pretend; we simply need to enjoy God and open to Him, and He will bring us into the realization that He is and we are not, for He is the I AM and we depend on Him for everything.

Lord, we want to know, experience, and enjoy You as the One who is and who was and who is coming, the Triune Father God. Hallelujah, God is – He simply is, having the reality of being, the self-existing One and the ever-existing One! Amen, Lord, we believe that You are – You are everything, and we are nothing. May it dawn on us that God is and we are not; may we realize that we really are nothing, we can do nothing, we know nothing, but God is everything. Amen, Lord, be everything to us and in us. We simply abide in You to enjoy You, draw our life from You, receive Your divine dispensing, and depend on You moment by moment. Oh, what a joy it is to realize that we’re nothing, we can do nothing, and we have nothing, yet we are joined to the One who is everything, He is the only One and the unique One in everything who richly supplies us! Hallelujah!

Experience and Enjoy the Seven Spirits who are before God’s Throne, the Sevenfold Intensified Spirit

Rev. 1:4 speaks of the seven Spirits who are before God’s throne; before the book of Revelation, the Spirit is always referred to as singular, but in this book, we see from the very beginning that the Spirit is now seven.

In the book of Revelation, the Spirit is called “the seven Spirits” (Rev. 1:4; 4:5; 5:6), the sevenfold intensified Spirit.

This doesn’t mean that God has now seven Spirits but rather, that the one Spirit of God (Eph. 4:4) has been intensified sevenfold.

The seven Spirits in Rev. 1:4 undoubtedly are the one Spirit of God because They are ranked among the Triune God.

These seven lamps in Rev. 4:5 refer to the seven lamps of the lampstand in Exo. 25:37 and the seven lamps of the lampstand in Zech. 4:2.

The seven lamps of fire – the seven Spirits of God – signify the enlightening and searching of the sevenfold intensified Spirit of God, and this is for God’s move and for His building.

The number seven signifies completion in God’s operation; the seven Spirits must be for God’s move on the earth.

We are now living at the end of this age, toward the end of the present age of grace; lawlessness, sin, and immorality have intensified, and hatred, animosity, corruption, and degradation is reaching their peak.

Even in the church all over the earth, the degradation is so deep and prevailing that many don’t know what is God’s economy, what is the Lord doing today, or what is the Body of Christ.

Due to the degradation of the church, the one Spirit of God has been intensified sevenfold to counteract this degradation, to build up the church, to produce the overcomers, and to consummate the New Jerusalem.

In essence and existence, the Spirit of God is one, but in the intensified function and work of God’s operation, this Spirit has become sevenfold.

This title, the seven Spirits, indicates that the Spirit has been intensified sevenfold.

This means that all the elements in the all-inclusive, life-giving, compound Spirit have been intensified sevenfold in all the believers in Christ who open to Him so that they may be produced as the Lord’s overcomers today who end this age and bring in the age of the kingdom.

The sevenfold intensified Spirit intensifies all the elements of the Spirit: divinity, incarnation, crucifixion, resurrection, reality, and grace (Rev. 3:1).

It is not only the seven eyes looking at us as seven lamps of fire burning to purge us of anything that is not of God and infuse us with the very being of God; it is the sevenfold intensified Spirit of life, of the grace, of reality, of the humanity of Jesus, and everything that we need.

Especially as we approach the end of this age and we see pestilence and disease (such as COVID19), wars and rumours of wars (such as the war in Ukraine and the arming of the surrounding nations), and death (as a result of COVID and the war), we need to come to the Lord and allow Him to intensify His organic salvation in us.

Yes, the enemy does attack us, and it seems that his attacks are intensifying; the more we want to pursue the Lord and be one with Him in His move, the more the enemy attacks us in our family, our finances, our workplace, and our health.

However, we can open to the Lord in His intensification as the sevenfold intensified Spirit, and we can experience His sevenfold intensification, and in one year He can do much more in us that He has done in many previous years.

We just need to be open to Him for His ultimate move, and He will work in us in His intensification to not only restore the years that the locusts have eaten but even more to produce us as His overcomers who end this age and consummate the New Jerusalem.

Lord Jesus, we come to You as the sevenfold intensified Spirit to be infused with You, to be searched by You, and to enjoy Your intensified organic salvation. Amen, Lord, intensify Your organic salvation in us. We are open to You for Your move; restore to us the years that the locusts have eaten and advance in us in an unprecedented way. We are nothing and can do nothing, but we open to the inner operation of the sevenfold intensified Spirit for the building up of the church and the consummation of the New Jerusalem. We choose You, Lord, and we choose Your will; flow in us as the Spirit who has been intensified sevenfold, and produce us and the saints as Your overcomers, those who will end this age and bring in the age of the kingdom! Amen, Lord, may we experience and enjoy You as the sevenfold intensified Spirit in Your intensified move and salvation today!
