Cleanse time, land, community, birthright and offices
"Then God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it he rested from all the work of creating that he had done." Genesis 2:3
Holiness is the anchoring joy of having our lives aligned and at rest with Father God. God calls for holiness in five areas of our lives, in this order:
-
Time. When we cleanse time, we restore our timelines back to where they can sync with God's timing. When our timing is at rest or aligned with His timing, we can rest.
-
Land. we can follow the pattern in Hosea 2 where God restored His covenant and then He entered the air and then the earth and then the earth could respond to Him with its harvest, especially in its place of greatest defeat with its greatest consequences - Jezreel.
-
Community. God's people who follow and guard His ways are at rest with Him and are holy. Holy ones represent God in the earth as priests and kings.
-
Birthright. Everyone has a birthright, and our deepest fulfillment comes from possessing it. The first step to cleanse a birthright is to understand what it is. Learn more
-
Offices. When we are assigned an office (son, father, daughter, mother, teacher, president and so forth), we don't want to step into an office defiled by our predecessors. Cleanse the office first. Our first office is the office of personhood.
