Purging For Deeper Dimensions

Text: John 15:2
"“Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit”. "

Over the last couple of days, we have seen that the vessel of interest in our dispensation is us and not man-made items, for we see in the plan of God for man, how He moved the temple from those made with hands to our bodies, and having His Spirit dwell within us, thus, making our bodies, who we are and all that we represent become the interest. But God cannot use us if we are not purified.

The Holy Ghost has been given to us to be the guide to our purification by purging us – taking out of us those things that are not consistent with the kingdom. The Holy Spirit does this by a resource of the kingdom; the word. This further emphasizes the truth about the word being the washing element. The bible in Ephesians 5:26 puts it this way ‘That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word’.

One major factor we must always remind ourselves of is that no one is used accidentally by the LORD. Everyone used by God must have gone through a purging process. The bible tells us in Isaiah 6: 1-7, how that the prophet was a man of unclean lips and the Lord had to purge him with a live coal taken from the altar of God. In our time, it has to be the purging by the Holy Spirit. Remember, the first level of God’s blessings is His word which makes us aware, being spiritually educated of the things made for our excelling in Christ, and stirs our hearts to obey His word, by reason of the Spirit of obedience.

Hence, we can begin to journey our way into these things, activating the word in us, and not just hearing to be amazed at the word – being hearers only, but doing the word we hear. The last level of purging reveals something supernatural for the God child, a purging unto deeper dimensions and in our next diet, we will be looking into what this third level holds for the God child.
