God's Hidden Intention Revealed

There is a difference in the will of God and his greater intention. The will of God can be thwarted, but his intention, never.

Makes me think of another word that Sis. Dora shared with us..... But first this example: She was in Arkansas and friends took her to see that large passion play that is put on there (can't remember the town) with live animals and 100s in the cast.

She tells how there were main actors with speaking parts, heros and villians and there was just background extras, as well, going thru daily life activities, etc. She even remarked that a couple of young people were stealing a kiss in a stairwell. But when the production was over, everyone came forward to take a bow as the crowd loudly applauded them all. They all received the same applause no matter the part played.

"Now He who is examining me is the Lord. So, be not judging anything before the season, till the Lord should be coming, who will also illuminate the hidden things of darkness and manifest the counsels of the hearts. And then APPLAUSE will be coming to each one from God." 1 Cor. 4:5 Concordant Literal Translation

Every part was necessary in the outworking of God's plan and purpose in the ages for the making of the Man, the New Creation Man.

***************************

God’s Revealed Will versus God’s Hidden Intention was the title of her teaching I wanted to share. “He has hidden these things from the wise and prudent and revealed them unto babes.”

For instance: It was God’s revealed will that Israel be given the Law and attempt to keep the Law, but it was His hidden intention that ultimately they would not and could not, at least not from the flesh or outer man. For they were playing out their part as living object lessons unto us upon whom the end of the ages have come Paul said. They were teaching us spiritual principles by becoming living object lessons.

His revealed will says “Thou shalt not kill”, but in his hidden intention he would offer Himself as the Son who would be. “…the rulers were assembled and combined together against the Lord and against His anointed, Christ the Messiah.
To carry out all that Your hand and Your will and purpose had predestined (predetermined) should occur.” Act 4

The Lamb (this includes the Lamb company) that had been slain in the heavens(the mind of God) before the foundation of the world was now being manifested in the earth…..”testified of in due time”.

His Revealed Will:
“For I tell you that Christ, the Messiah, became a servant and a minister to the circumcised [the Jews] in order to show God’s truthfulness and honesty by confirming the promises [given to our]
fathers.

But His Hidden Intention:
And [also in order] that the Gentiles might glorify God for [His uncovenanted] mercy to them. As it is written, “Therefore I will praise You among the Gentiles, and sing praises to Your name. Psa. 18:49

Again it is said, Rejoice, O Gentiles, along with His [own] people; quoting Deut. 32:43

And again, Praise the Lord, all you Gentiles (nations), and let all the peoples praise Him! Quoting Psa 117:1

Jesus came unto His own, ie Israel as the revealed will of God, but it was his hidden intention to gather all the nations. (thru His many-membered Christ)

If Jesus had come any sooner upon the scene, the consciousness of man would not have been prepared enough or matured enough to hold the seed of Life (they would have aborted it) and if He had come any later, we would not have had the past two days to have our consciousness’ healed and to have our devils (our misperceptions) cast out and to carry the seed to full term and birth. Just as in Gen. 1 on the fourth day, God said, ”Let there be lights…and let them be for signs and to mark seasons, days, and years.”

Ephesians speaks of the “eternal” purpose of God, but if God had an “eternal” purpose, it would never begin and it would never end. So I believe that the Concordant Literal renders it more correctly by saying

“And to enlighten all as to what is the administration of the secret, which has been concealed from the eons in God, Who creates all, that now may be made known to the sovereignties and authorities among the celestials, through the ecclesia, the multifarious wisdom of God, in accord with the PURPOSE OF THE EONS, which He makes in Christ Jesus, our Lord…”

In its higher spiritual sense WE ARE THOSE EONS, and we are the lights that are markers for what day and season and year it is. We are not just passing through the eons, but the eons are passing through us, ie, Innocence, Conscious, Promise, Law, Grace, Truth, Darkness, Light. Etc.....realms of consciousness that we encounter in our journey.

We are, in fact, God’s Day that is the cause that brings the effects to bear.. “The rising sun/son does not fight the night”. It is the changeless cause. We (the Christ company) are the movers and shakers (earthquakes) causing men’s hearts to fail as they call for the “mountains and the rocks” to fall on them. You, as Christ Jesus the rock, bone of his bone and flesh of his flesh, will fall on creation and this stone shall become a great mountain and fill the whole earth!

"Let every “man” (carnal) be called a liar but God (spirit) the truth."

“If we deny him, (can’t see that we are a Christ) he remains faithful for he cannot deny himself (his own Christ nature)." This is what it means to deny the Lord to me.

God is no respecter of persons, right? Why? Because every man IS HIS PERSON ! That’s why he cherishes and chastens EVERY SON , because every son is to be an expression of the Father and He wants an exact image, not a caricature.

The Father is the Unmanifest that just IS, (God IS) but the son is the Father being expressed or manifested. And the Son lives and moves and has his being in Him, the Father. For there is nowhere He (the Omnipresent Father) is not. You can’t get out of God, for he is the inside and the outside of everything that exists.

God knows when the little sparrow falls. Because God IS the sparrow. God is All.

Everything came out of God, and returns to God, but not void. We are the sent words of God that do not return void. Void of what? Void of experience or experiential knowing having our senses exercised to know good and evil.

We are God's hidden intention being made ready to be revealed:
"My frame was not hidden from You, when I was being formed in secret and intricately and curiously wrought in the depths of the earth [in a region of darkness and mystery]
You saw my unformed substance, in Your book all the days of my life were written, before ever they took shape, when as yet there was none of them." Psa. 139: 15

With love,

“God’s love for you overflows from such a full heart that it floods the universe with Light and whispers your name with such tenderness that if your heart were not eternal, it would melt.”
