“Changing Our Character” Part 3 We Are the ~“US”~ of All Creation

Zechariah 3:8 No listen, Joshua the high priest, you and your friends who are sitting in the front of you – indeed they are men who are a symbol, for behold, I am going to bring in my servant the Branch.

Isaiah 11:1 Then a shoot will spring from the stem of Jesse, And a Branch from his roots will bear fruit. 2 The Spirit of the Lord will rest on him, the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, The Spirit of counsel and strength, the Spirit of Knowledge and the fear of the Lord.

Yes, my humble prayer is for all of US to completely exodus from under the white wig of judgment, and be the character of this new moment where we are all called to LOVE and SERVE ONE ANOTHER on this level ground, which even the prophet Peter already long time declared in his epistles by saying, "church, submit yourself to the ministry, and you the ministry, submit yourself to the church". ~Clement Ilunga~

The action to take in our circles ought not to judge, but to uplift, encourage, advise as the bible says, "emulate one another to good works". This stage of our ministry of US should even make all of US humbler than never before, and grateful for the judgment passed in our favor. Saints should not become the new horn under excitement, but be the Branch.

This change, is not the doing away of the body, but the change of the old nicolaitane which was making slaves "God made man free, man makes slaves"); the order has changed from that to the new order of Loving and Serving one another in the fulfillment of the following promise of the Lord.

JEREMIAH 3:15 And I will give you pastors according to mine heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding. (it's that same promise of raising THE BRANCH ministry)

It is not removing the gifts in the body as they are without repentance, but a change of the character they had been operating and used from the character of dominance to love, honor, cherish, support and serve. It's a holy bond of love. People have to understand that the end comes like an annihilation but what it's really is A CHANGE, the end is THE START of new IN GOD, not a literal destruction of a ministry:

It's not a literal end as many seem to have understood, but a change of CHARACTER in which the gifts were used to a new character of loving and serving one another. this needs not to RUSH with, but to walk conspicuously. some are taking it as in the spirit of "Now, is our turn to take authority", forgetting that "authority without CHARACTER is just intellectual, not the flow of the Spirit.

Let us be more sensitive to what the Spirit has caused to be, not what we want without the unction of the Spirit. These gifts are the very presence of the Lord, you cannot remove that presence of the Lord. It's about the inner change of the ministry in the CHARACTER it was operating to the new order of love and serve, not the removal thereof: I will give you pastors according to mine heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding.

EZEKIEL 34:12 As a shepherd seeketh out his flock in the day that he is among his sheep that are scattered; so will I seek out my sheep, and will deliver them out of all places where they have been scattered in the cloudy and dark day.

EZEKIEL 34:13 And I will bring them out from the people, and gather them from the countries, and will bring them to their own land, and feed them upon the mountains of Israel by the rivers, and in all the inhabited places of the country.

EZEKIEL 34:14 I will feed them in a good pasture, and upon the high mountains of Israel shall their fold be: there shall they lie in a good fold, and in a fat pasture shall they feed upon the mountains of Israel.

EZEKIEL 34:15 I will feed my flock, and I will cause them to lie down, saith the Lord GOD. EZEKIEL 34:16 I will seek that which was lost, and bring again that which was driven away, and will bind up that which was broken, and will strengthen that which was sick: but I will destroy the fat and the strong; I will feed them with judgment.

EZEKIEL 34:18 Seemeth it a small thing unto you to have eaten up the good pasture, but ye must tread down with your feet the residue of your pastures? and to have drunk of the deep waters, but ye must foul the residue with your feet?

EZEKIEL 34:19 And as for my flock, they eat that which ye have trodden with your feet; and they drink that which ye have fouled with your feet.

EZEKIEL 34:20 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD unto them; Behold, I, even I, will judge between the fat cattle and between the lean cattle.

EZEKIEL 34:21 Because ye have thrust with side and with shoulder, and pushed all the diseased with YOUR HORNS till ye have scattered them abroad;

EZEKIEL 34:22 Therefore will I save my flock, and THEY SHALL NO MORE BE A PREY; and I will judge between cattle and cattle. EZEKIEL 34:23 And I WILL SET UP ONE SHEPHERD OVER THEM, and he shall feed them, even MY SERVANT DAVID; he shall feed them, and he SHALL BE THEIR SHEPHERD.

EZEKIEL 34:24 And I the LORD will be their God, and my servant David a prince among them; I the LORD have spoken it. EZEKIEL 34:25 And I WILL MAKE WITH THEM A COVENANT OF PEACE, and WILL CAUSE THE EVIL BEASTS TO CEASE out of the land: and they shall dwell safely in the wilderness, and sleep in the woods.

EZEKIEL 34:26 And I will make them and the places round about my hill a blessing; and I will cause the shower to come down in his season; there shall be showers of blessing.

EZEKIEL 34:27 And the tree of the field shall yield her fruit, and the earth shall yield her increase, and they shall be safe in their land, and shall know that I am the LORD, WHEN I HAVE BROKEN THE BANDS OF THEIR YOKE, AND DELIVERED THEM OUT OF THE HAND OF THOSE THAT SERVED THEMSELVES OF THEM.

EZEKIEL 34:28 And they shall no more be a prey to the heathen, neither shall the beast of the land devour them; but they shall dwell safely, and none shall make them afraid. /react-text EZEKIEL 34:29 And I will raise up for them a plant of renown, and they shall be no more consumed with hunger in the land, neither bear the shame of the heathen any more.

EZEKIEL 34:30 Thus shall they know that I the LORD their God am with them, and that they, even the house of Israel, are my people, saith the Lord GOD. [PARTITION REMOVED] EZEKIEL 34:31 AND YE MY FLOCK, the flock of my pasture, ARE MEN, and I am your God, saith the Lord GOD.

A CHANGE OF CHARACTER UNDER MY SERVANT DAVID, A MAN AFTER HIS HEART OF LOVE IN THE ALL-IN-ALL NEW SETTING. WE SHOULD UNDERSTAND THAT IT'S NOT AN ANNIHILATION OF THE MINISTRY, BUT AN INNER CHANGE OF THE CHARACTER TO BECOME AFTER HIS HEART OF LOVE, MY SERVANT DAVID, THE BRANCH, every verse speaking of the Jesus of this day.
