COMMAND YE ME - PART I


 

 

COMMAND YE ME

 


Isaiah 45:11  Thus saith the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker, Ask me of things to come concerning my sons, and
concerning the work of my hands command ye me.  12  I have made the earth, and created man upon it: I, [even] my hands, have stretched out the heavens, and all their host have I commanded.  13  I have raised him up in righteousness, and I will direct all his ways: he shall build my city, and he shall let go my captives, not for price nor reward, saith the LORD of hosts. {direct: or, make straight}

 

WHEN JESUS SPOKE TO THE STORM

 

He spoke to the CREATION OF GOD, therefore, speaking to “God,” honorably and respectfully “COMMANDING GOD (His work).”

 

“WE, AS JOINT HEIRS WITH JESUS CHRIST,” “THE REDEEMED” ARE TO SPEAK (command) ACCORDING TO ISAIAH 45:11 AND WE ARE TO SPEAK (COMMAND), IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST BY THE POWER OF THE HOLY GHOST!

 

We DO NOT have the authority to COMMAND Almighty God or Jesus Christ, “The Son of the Living God,” but instead, we are to ask Him about Jesus Christ and “the redeemed Sons of God,” The Joint HEIRS with Jesus Christ!

 

We also have the authority to ASK The Heavenly Father about the HOLY ANGELS and we are to command them according to His will!

 

WE THE REDEEMED, ARE TO COMMAND (“SPEAK TO” WITH GOD’S AUTHORITY)

THE CREATIONS OF GOD!

 

WE ARE TO SPEAK (COMMAND), WHEN AND BECAUSE

THERE IS A DESPERATE NEED

 

Not ONLY because of our own personal want or desires, but a NEED and that NEED be for THAT SPECIFIC PURPOSE! The EVIDENCE is the CALMNESS, when there was a storm previously, before Jesus spoke to the winds and the waves “PEACE BE STILL!” Heb. 11:1 (“God” is the “EVIDENCE THAT IS UNSEEN,” “The Calmness” The “Stillness” which is evident).

 

There must be a specific NEED. The NEED must be one of desperation, whether that specific need is for a specific MIRACLE from God or a healing or something that is a sign, wonder or mighty deed. Something that is a manifestation of the Holy Ghost! Almighty God be praised! “Speak the Word!”

 

For an example: as long as there is a cracker in the cracker barrel, you do not need a cracker! However, when the cracker barrel is empty, it is “then” that you have a need for a cracker!

 

As long as there is fuel in the automobile, you have NO NEED for fuel. You would have a need for fuel if the fuel tank was empty! There is a big difference between a need and a want or desire!

 

You have NO NEED for food, as long as you have something to eat. You have NO NEED for healing when you are not sick or do not have some kind of an affliction.

 

THE MANIFESTATIONS OF THE HOLY GHOST (THE POWER OF GOD), REVEALS

THE EVIDENCE (THE PRESENCE OF GOD) THAT IS NOT SEEN!

 

John 4:24  God  [ is ]  a   Spirit : and they that worship him must worship [him] in spirit  and in truth.

 

[Holy, Clean, Righteous, Spirits cannot be seen by carnal means, they are seen Spiritually because they are revealed by the Holy Spirit and of Almighty God]. However, un-clean, evil spirits, regardless of their kind or type, not only are revealed by the Holy Ghost, but can also, be seen by those that are un-righteous  because they follow Satan, the devil].

 

That is the reason that no man hath seen God “Himself” in the flesh, because God, The Heavenly Father is a SPIRIT like the wind or air. But a person “CAN SEE,” feel and hear, THE EVIDENCE OF GOD, just the same as you cannot see wind or the air, but a person, “CAN SEE,” feel, and hear, the EVIDENCE OF THE WIND OR AIR!

 

Hebrews 11:1  Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, “THE EVIDENCE” OF THINGS NOT SEEN. {substance: or, ground, or, confidence} [The “evidence” is God]

 

Matthew 9:20  And, behold, a woman, which was diseased with an issue  of  blood twelve years, came behind [him], and touched  the   hem   of   his   garment :  21  For she said within herself, If I may but touch  his   garment , I shall be whole.  22  But Jesus turned him about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter, be  of  good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole. And  the  woman was made whole from that hour.

 

The EVIDENCE of God’s presence was, after she touched the hem of Christ’s garment, she “WAS NOT” bleeding nor had a disease, “IT WAS GONE.” That in itself is the “EVIDENCE” OF GOD! No blood, no disease, they were gone. Another evidence that cannot be seen is, when God performs a miracle of healing, He does NOT LEAVE SCARS! No scars can be seen because there are none, regardless of whether that miracle was spiritual or physical.

 

JESUS COMMANDED THE WINDS AND THE WAVES

 

There was a desperate need, therefore Jesus commanded that which was CREATED of God (weather, rain, wind, lightning, water and tempest), saying “PEACE BE STILL!”

 

Mark  4:36  And when they had sent away the multitude, they took him even as he was in the ship. And there were also with him other little ships.  37  And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now full.  38  And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish?  39  And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea,  Peace ,  be   still . And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.  40  And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith?  41  And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, What manner of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?

 

Isaiah 45:11  Thus saith the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker, Ask me of things to come concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hands command ye me.  12  I have made the earth, and created man upon it: I, [even] my hands, have stretched out the heavens, and all their host have I commanded.  13  I have raised him up in righteousness, and I will direct all his ways: he shall build my city, and he shall let go my captives, not for price nor reward, saith the LORD of hosts. {direct: or, make straight}

 

SOME OF THE REASONS, THE MAN OF GOD, HAS THE POWER

AND THE AUTHORITY OF GOD TO

SPEAK AND COMMAND, IN THE PLACE OF GOD, THEREFORE COMMANDING,

THE THINGS OF GOD, BECAUSE ALMIGHTY GOD “HIMSELF,” HAS GIVEN THE MAN OF GOD, THE AUTHORITY TO BE AND RESPOND AS THE ORACLE OF GOD!

 

2 Kings 20:1  In those days was Hezekiah sick unto death. And the prophet Isaiah the son of Amoz came to him, and said unto him, Thus saith the Lord, Set thine house in order; for thou shalt die, and not live. [2] Then he turned his face to the wall, and prayed unto the Lord, saying, [3] I beseech thee, O Lord, remember now how I have walked before thee in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in thy sight. And Hezekiah wept sore. [4] And it came to pass, afore Isaiah was gone out into the middle court, that the word of the Lord came to him, saying, [5] Turn again, and tell Hezekiah the captain of my people, Thus saith the Lord, the God of David thy father, I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will heal thee: on the third day thou shalt go up unto the house of the Lord. [6] And I will add unto thy days fifteen years; and I will deliver thee and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria; and I will defend this city for mine own sake, and for my servant David's sake. [7] And Isaiah said, Take a lump of figs. And they took and laid it on the boil, and he recovered.

   

2 Kings 20:8  And Hezekiah said unto Isaiah, What shall be the sign that the Lord will heal me, and that I shall go up into the house of the Lord the third day? [9]  And Isaiah said, This sign shalt thou have of the Lord, that the Lord will do the thing that he hath spoken: shall the shadow go forward ten degrees, or go back ten degrees? [10] And Hezekiah answered, It is a light thing for the shadow to go down ten degrees: nay, but let the shadow return backward ten degrees. [11] And Isaiah the prophet cried unto the Lord: and he brought the shadow ten degrees backward, by which it had gone down in the dial of Ahaz.

 

THE IRON AXE HEAD SWIM

 

2 Kings 6:4  So he went with them. And when they came to Jordan, they cut down wood. [5] But as one was felling a beam, the axe head fell into the water: and he cried, and said, Alas, master! For it was borrowed. [6] And the man of God said, Where fell it? And he shewed him the place. And he cut down a stick, and cast it in thither; and the iron did swim. [7] Therefore said he, Take it up to thee. And he put out his hand, and took it.

 

“NOTICE,” THAT IN EVERY CIRCUMSTANCE

 

Throughout the entire Holy Word of God, that when there was a desperate need, God would perform a miracle for HIS redeemed! For those that actually believe in Him, worshipped Him and praised Almighty God or His Son Jesus The Anointed One.

 

You will notice also that Elijah commanded the Iron axe head to swim by throwing a wooden stick out upon the water (iron).  (Isaiah 45:11) Elijah commanded the “works, creation or things  of God to respond to the authority of God. Also, when Elijah threw the stick upon the water, Elijah released His faith in God for the axe head to swim and God honored Elijah’s faith therefore the axe head did swim!

 

Our Heavenly Father is no respecter of persons pertaining to His redeemed! What He will do for one He will do for another, if they will only believe in or upon Him and worship Him!  Acts 10:34  Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:

 

BEFORE ANYONE CAN COMMAND THE WORK’S OR THE CREATION OF GOD

OR SPEAK WITH OR BY THE AUTHORITY OF GOD, THERE ARE CERTAIN QUALIFICATIONS

THAT MUST BE FOLLOWED OR THAT IS REQUIRED OF GOD!

 

Some of the qualifications which pertain to and are required of God, (if you are going to act or speak with the authority of God), are found recorded in “God’s Holy Word” for “His Word” is Holy, because He and His Word are One and the Same. 

 

John 1:1  In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. [2] The same was in the beginning with God. [3] All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

 

Now let’s look at Isaiah 45:11  Thus saith the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker, Ask me of things to come concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hands command ye me.

 

QUALIFICATION # 1

 

Matthew 6:33  But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. [seek the righteousness of God and seek ye the Kingdom of God. The Kingdom of God is NOT OF THIS WORLD. Jesus said “My kingdom is not of this world” John 18:36 Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence.]

 

QUALIFICATION # 2

 

Romans 10:9  That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. [10] For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. [11] For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. [12] For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. [13] For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

 

Acts 2:38  Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

 

Matthew 28:19  Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: [20] Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

 

QUALIFICATIONS # 3

 

Seek Holiness before God, Hebrews 12:14  Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:

 

QUALIFICATION # 4

 

Hebrews 11:6  But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

 

2 Corinthians 5:7  (For we walk by faith, not by sight:)

 

QUALIFICATION # 5

 

John 14:17  Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. [18] I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you. [19] Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also. [20] At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you.   [This in only pertaining to those that are redeemed by the blood of Lamb of God]

 

Psalm 119:11  Thyword have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.

 

John 1:1  In the beginning was the “Word,” and the “Word” was “with God,” and the “Word was God.”

 

These are some of the reasons why Jesus said in  John 14:12  Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. [13] And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. [14] If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.

 

It is stated in  1st John 4:4  Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.

 


IF YOU HAVE REPENTED OF YOUR SINS AND HAVE ASKED THE LORD JESUS CHRIST TO FORGIVE YOU OF YOUR SINS AND TO COME INTO YOUR HEART

 


Then you definitely can say
greater is he that is in “me,” than he that is in the world.

 

Provided that you have followed with water baptism (IF YOU HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY) AND MAKE SPECIAL EFFORT TO DO SO, IF YOU ARE SERIOUS and God knows whether you are serious or not!

 

When was the last time that you prayed the prayer of faith, believing and knowing that your Heavenly Father would perform that miracle for you?

 

Have you obeyed the Lord?

Did you give the Lord praise, even when you did NOT get what you wanted?

(Matthew 26:42, Mark 14:36, Romans 8:28)

 

Trust God! He knows what is best for you better than you do!

(Matthew 9:4, Luke 11:17, Romans 8:28)

 

If what you prayed for was actually bad for you, even though you thought it was good,

the Lord will not give it to you!

(Luke 11:11-13)

 

The Heavenly Father will not tempt, or give His Redeemed an evil thing!

(Genesis 1:13-20)

 

GIVE HIM PRAISE, FOR HE IS WORTHY OF ALL PRAISE! Amen!

(Hebrews 13:15, Romans 8:28, Ephesians 5:20, 1st Peter 4:11)

 

The “Lord” has shown (revealed), to me “His” mighty power and authority with this lesson, which is recorded in “His” Holy “Word.” Speak “His” “Word,” for “His” (Almighty God’s) Presence is in “it” and “it” (His Holy Word) will never return void!

 

Psalms 119:10-18, Isaiah 55:11,

 

We are to speak “His” “WORD,” BUT “HE” IS THE ONE THAT DOES THE WORK.

 

John 14:10  Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.
