Message 89：BEING ON THE STRAIGHT WAY OF THE LORD; THE HIGHWAY OF HOLINESS:

——Kevin Mirasi April 6, 2016

At this point in time, The LORD God Almighty, The LORD Jesus Christ and The Holy Spirit is going to help us understand a very critical message, the message of being on the straight way of The LORD: The Highway of Holiness.

The First point to note is that it thus becomes very very clear from the onset of this conversation that the first step on the journey towards entering into Heaven is for one to be found on the right path, the right way, the straight way: The Way of The LORD (The Highway of Holiness). From this path, way or highway can one then be able to keep watch for the coming of The LORD Jesus Christ. This is because The LORD Jesus Christ comes through this way and thus picks only those who are found on this way/path/road/highway.

The Second point to note is that it thus becomes very critical and eternally very important to be found on this way because it is the ONLY way that leads to The Kingdom of The LORD God Almighty in Heaven for eternal life. Whoever is not found on this way (highway) of The LORD cannot enter into Heaven whether through the Rapture of the bride of Christ or when one passes on before the rapture of the bride of Christ. It also means that souls who departed from the earth in the past, but had not been walking on the way (the highway) of The LORD before their physical demise (death) did not enter into Heaven but entered into Hell. The souls who faithfully walked on this way (highway) of The LORD before they departed from the earth, for sure entered into Heaven.

The Third point to note is that this way, path or highway of The LORD is a Narrow Road. It is narrow because it is a restricted way (highway/road). Only those who pass the strict test of the ways and requirements to be qualified to walk on it are found on it. It is narrow because there are “Rules of Engagement” on it. You don’t just jump onto it like a bandwagon. One must be “cleared” first before they journey on it. The “Rules of Engagement” for one to journey, walk and be found on the narrow road (way, path, highway) of The LORD is preceded by a “clearance”. This “clearance” is the permission to enter onto the narrow road, path, way or highway of The LORD. The “clearance” includes and entails washing, purification, cleansing, cleaning up, refining and sanctification through The Blood of The LORD Jesus Christ, The Holy Fire from The throne room of Heaven and The anointing of The Holy Spirit to wash away all the sins and to burn up all impurities in the soul, spirit, mind, heart and body. Therefore, this “clearance” and the attainment of the permission to enter on the narrow road is: Being Born Again, which comes by one Repenting of their sins with sincerity in their heart and asking The LORD Jesus Christ to have mercy on them and to forgive them all their sins by washing away all the sins through The Precious Blood of The LORD Jesus Christ that was shed on the cross for the atonement of sins. The direct result of Repentance is the Baptism of The Holy Spirit and Holy Fire, but Water Baptism also still applies to fulfill all righteousness. This is powerfully captured in the book of Luke 3:16 which states as follows:‘“John answered them all, “I baptize you with water. But one who is more powerful than I will come, the straps of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.”’ The same is also very well captured in the book of Mathew 3:13-15 which states as follows: ‘“Then Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan to be baptized by John. But John tried to deter him, saying, “I need to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?” Jesus replied, “Let it be so now; it is proper for us to do this to fulfill all righteousness.” Then John consented.”’

Meaning that only those who are born again can walk and journey on the narrow road as a first step. This is very powerfully captured in the book of Mathew 7:13-14 which states as follows: “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.” The same is also very beautifully captured in the book of John 3:3-8 which states as follows: ‘“Jesus replied, “Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again.” “How can someone be born when they are old?” Nicodemus asked. “Surely they cannot enter a second time into their mother’s womb to be born!” Jesus answered,“Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit. Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit. You should not be surprised at my saying, ‘You must be born again.’ The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.”’

The Fourth point to note is that this way, path or highway of The LORD as we have noted above has got “Rules of Engagement” or “Terms and Conditions”. These by Heavenly vocabulary (terminology) are known as The Ways and The Requirements of The LORD. So once one has got the “clearance” (through the Blood of The LORD Jesus Christ) to walk on this narrow road, the path, the way or the highway of The LORD then one must now adhere to the Ways and the Requirements of The LORD. These are: Repentance(Continues and sustained cleansing, refining, trimming and purification through the Blood of The LORD Jesus Christ and The Holy Fire),Righteousness (Right before The LORD by following the Ways and the Requirements of The LORD), Holiness (Set apart for the glory and honour of The LORD), Truth (Devoid of lies, deception and falsehood) and Complete Surrender to The LORD Jesus Christ (No Lukewarmness; but now Hot for The LORD Jesus Christ). This is very powerfully captured in the book of Isaiah 35:8-9 which states as follows: “And a highway will be there; it will be called the Way of Holiness; it will be for those who walk on that Way. The unclean will not journey on it; wicked fools will not go about on it. No lion will be there, nor any ravenous beast; they will not be found there. But only the redeemed will walk there.”

Moses, the man of God together with the Israelites were also set to begin their journey on this Narrow Road, Way, Path or Highway of The LORD (The Highway of Holiness). So Moses asked The LORD God Almighty to speak to him about the Ways and the Requirements of The LORD (The “Rules of Engagement” or The “Terms and The Conditions”) while journeying or walking on the narrow road, the path, the way or the highway of The LORD. Just as Moses, every human being must adhere to these ways and requirements of The LORD so as to journey on the highway of The LORD (The Highway of Holiness). This conversation of Moses and The LORD regarding the Ways and The Requirements of The LORD while journeying/walking on the Highway of The LORD is very powerfully captured in the book of Exodus 33:12-13 which states as follows: ‘“ Moses said to the Lord, “You have been telling me, ‘Lead these people,’ but you have not let me know whom you will send with me.You have said, ‘I know you by name and you have found favor with me.’ If you are pleased with me, teach me your ways so I may know you and continue to find favor with you. Remember that this nation is your people.”’

The Fifth point to note is that failure to adhere to the Ways and The Requirements of The LORD while journeying/walking on the highway of The LORD, the path, the narrow road, the way of The LORD can lead to one being blotted (removed) out of the highway of The LORD. Therefore walking in Repentance (Continues Repentant heart) Holiness, Righteousness, Truth and Complete Surrender to The LORD Jesus Christ is not negotiable while one is journeying/walking on the highway, the path, the way, the narrow road of The LORD. Meaning that whoever does not adhere to the ways and the requirements of The LORD will not find favour with The LORD and The LORD will blot them out of The Highway of Holiness and the presence of The LORD (The anointing of The Holy Spirit) will no longer be upon them. This happens when one returns to a lifestyle of sin and refuses to Repent of their sin(s).

Therefore no sin must be found in us for us to journey and to continue to journey on the Highway of Holiness. Those who remain (stand) steady and firm on the highway of The LORD (The Highway of Holiness, The Highway of Repentance, The Highway of Righteousness, The Highway of Truth, The Highway of Complete Surrender to The LORD Jesus Christ) will be saved and be victorious as they will enter into Heaven as their names will remain (Be found) written in the Book of Life. This is very powerfully captured in the book of Mathew 24:12-13 which states as follows: “Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved.” The same is also very beautifully captured in the book of Revelation 3:5 which states as follows: “The one who is victorious will, like them, be dressed in white. I will never blot out the name of that person from the book of life, but will acknowledge that name before my Father and his angels.”The same is also likewise captured in the book of Daniel 12:1 which states as follows: “At that time Michael, the great prince who protects your people, will arise. There will be a time of distress such as has not happened from the beginning of nations until then. But at that time your people—everyone whose name is found written in the book—will be delivered.”

When King David, the servant of The LORD recognized his fall as a result of having returned to a lifestyle of sin, he recognized this very important reality that failure to adhere to the Ways and the Requirements of The LORD can lead to one being blotted out (removed) from the Highway of Holiness and the Presence of The LORD (The Holy Spirit) being taken away from them. So he went before The LORD in sincere Repentance for the forgiveness of his sins and pleaded with The LORD to restore him and not to blot him out of the Highway of The LORD (The Highway of Holiness). This is captured very powerfully in the book of Psalm 51:11 which states as follows: “Do not cast me from your presence or take your Holy Spirit from me.”

The Sixth point to note is that on the Path, the narrow Road, the Highway of The LORD (The Highway of Holiness), The LORD Himself is present as His presence is here. The LORD walks with His sons and daughters who journey/walk on the Highway of Holiness. The Holy Spirit helps them, comforts them, guides them, counsels them, directs them and controls them as they walk/journey on the Narrow road of The LORD, the highway of The LORD: The Highway of Holiness. The glory of The LORD fills His sons and daughters as they walk/journey on the Highway of Holiness since the glory of The LORD will be upon those who journey/walk on the highway of The LORD. On this road/highway, The LORD shows mercy and compassion upon His sons and daughters and He gives them rest for their souls. This is very powerfully captured in the book of Exodus 33:15-19 which states as follows: ‘“The Lord replied, “My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.”Then Moses said to him, “If your Presence does not go with us, do not send us up from here. How will anyone know that you are pleased with me and with your people unless you go with us?What else will distinguish me and your people from all the other people on the face of the earth?” And the Lord said to Moses, “I will do the very thing you have asked, because I am pleased with you and I know you by name.” Then Moses said, “Now show me your glory.”And the Lord said, “I will cause all my goodness to pass in front of you, and I will proclaim my name, the Lord, in your presence. I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.”’

The Seventh point to note is that on the Highway of Holiness (The Highway of The LORD/The Narrow road), there is Holy Fire from the throne room of Heaven and there is also Separation from the World (The Broad road). The Holy fire in the Highway of Holiness Refines and Tests those who journey/walk on it as they pray, fast, read the word of God, worships & praises The LORD and serve The LORD.

This refining and testing is so that they become worthy to appear before the throne room of Heaven dressed in purity, humility and faithfulness: a clean garment, a garment of Righteousness, a garment of Holiness, a garment of Truth. The LORD will thus refer to them as: “My People”. They will also say of The LORD: “The LORD is our God”. So, those who journey on this way are God’s people (as The LORD refers to them as: “My People” and The LORD is their God as they declare: “We belong to The LORD”). Essentially, this means that on the Highway of The LORD (The Highway of Holiness/The Narrow Road of The LORD) there is the Rapture of The Bride of Christ into Heaven. Meaning that eventually they (The Bride of Christ/The Holy Church/” My People”)become permanently separated from the wicked (the wicked fools) walking on the broad road of a lifestyle of sins, evil and wickedness.

This is very powerfully captured in the book of Zechariah 13:8-9 which states as follows: ‘“In the whole land,” declares the Lord, “two-thirds will be struck down and perish; yet one-third will be left in it. This third I will put into the fire; I will refine them like silver and test them like gold. They will call on my name and I will answer them; I will say, ‘They are my people,’ and they will say, ‘The Lord is our God.’” The same is also very powerfully captured in the book of Daniel 12:10 which states as follows: “Many will be purified, made spotless and refined, but the wicked will continue to be wicked. None of the wicked will understand, but those who are wise will understand.” This is also captured in the book of Revelation 19:6-9 which states as follows: ‘“Then I heard what sounded like a great multitude, like the roar of rushing waters and like loud peals of thunder, shouting: “Hallelujah! For our Lord God Almighty reigns. Let us rejoice and be glad and give him glory! For the wedding of the Lamb has come, and his bride has made herself ready. Fine linen, bright and clean, was given her to wear.” (Fine linen stands for the righteous acts of God’s holy people.) Then the angel said to me, “Write this: Blessed are those who are invited to the wedding supper of the Lamb!” And he added, “These are the true words of God.”’ This thus becomes the moment to be clothed in a clean spiritual garment (a garment of Holiness) as one walks/journeys on the Highway of The LORD (The Highway of Holiness), and to be found wearing the clean garment during the Rapture as stated in the book of Revelation 16:15 which states as follows: “Look, I come like a thief! Blessed is the one who stays awake and remains clothed, so as not to go naked and be shamefully exposed.”

SHALOM!!! SHALOM!!! SHALOM!!!

PREPARE THE WAY FOR THE COMING OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST IN ABSOLUTE REPENTANCE, RIGHTEOUSNESS, HOLINESS, TRUTH AND COMPLETE SURRENDER TO THE LORD JESUS CHRIST (YESHUA/YAHUSHUA HA MASHIACH). TIME IS ABSOLUTELY OVER; THE MESSIAH JESUS CHRIST IS IMMINENTLY COMING TO PICK HIS BRIDE!!!

REPENTANCE PRAYER:
