Information Versus Revelation by Dennis Reanier - Identity Network

Information Versus Revelation 

by Dennis Reanier

Identity Network

I was once on a ministry trip in San Diego, California having dinner with a couple who were expecting to be grandparents in the next couple of weeks. While we were eating the woman received a phone call from their daughter who had just returned from an OBGYN appointment, where the doctor had been unable to find the baby's heart beat.
 
 
The woman got off of the phone traumatized as she shared the bad news about her daughter and granddaughter. When I felt quickened by the Spirit to ask them if we could pray. In agreement, we decided to pray as we were leaving the restaurant. Where we stopped and held hands in the parking lot and prayed in agreement for peace for the mother and for the baby to come back to life.

 
The next day I received a phone call from the grandfather saying that his daughter had just returned from the OBGYN. He proceeded to tell me that she had returned for an appointment where doctors were to make plans to remove the dead baby from her womb. But while she was there she asked the doctor to take the heartbeat one last time. The doctor complied with her request surprised to find the baby's heart beating normally. The baby had been raised from the dead in her mother's womb!

 
Can Jesus Really Raise the Dead?

 
I love that God likes to show up where we expect death, and give life.  Can Jesus really raise the dead?  How can it be possible for Him to use you to raise the dead? God doesn't just raise the dead - He is the Resurrection! Now the same Spirit that resurrected Jesus from the dead is the exact same Spirit that has become your new identity.

 
Jesus said that, "I am the way, the truth and the light."  The word truth is actually best translated as the word reality.  In other words, the word truth here is not about right and wrong.  It's about a whole other reality.  Jesus came to bring the reality of His Kingdom into the reality of our world.

 
In the above testimony the dead baby was a reality based on all of the information that we had from this world.  But the supernatural reality of God's Kingdom revealed was different than the natural reality of this mother and her baby. Knowing that like Bill Johnson teaches the inferior reality of this world must submit to the superior reality of His Kingdom.    
       
 
It's not about pretending that your circumstances and situations are not reality. It is about knowing that there is a different reality than the one you might currently be experiencing.  Then believing God's reality over your reality. Helping us to understand that there is a biblical distinction to make between information and revelation. We receive information through the natural senses of our flesh and in the same way, we receive revelation in the spirit through our spiritual senses.

 
Our Union with the Holy Spirit

 
The abundant life is the manifestation of revelation received through our union with Holy Spirit, so we can activate the faith diffused throughout our soul to experience the things that we believe. This is not faith based on our natural ability to hope for positive things. This is faith based on His supernatural reality!

 
Many Christians misunderstand the term faith. They apply it to positive confession based on hope from information received by our body's natural senses. They say things like, "I'm trusting in faith that God is going to give me this new job I applied for yesterday." If God did not say He was giving them a new job, then it is not based in revelation; it is not biblical faith! It is hope!

 
There is nothing wrong with hope. The Bible lists it as one of three things that will remain for all eternity. But hope can only take us so far before we need faith to take over. The problem occurs when hope is disguised as faith. If the above person doesn't get the job described, they can become disillusioned about their faith in God. As they believe they have been deceived and that He has let them down once again, when all along it wasn't Him speaking.

 
Even the Bible can be reduced to information without a relationship with Holy Spirit resulting in revelation, where we can begin to worship the Bible, rather than the God of the Bible. Finding out later that it doesn't work to just quote information from chapter and verse of the Bible without revelation. It is not enough to know about the things of God. You must personally have revelation from God Himself in order to have authority to experience the manifestation of those promises.

 
Living in Purpose and Victory

 
The Holy Spirit gives us revelation so we can live in the purpose and victory of that revelation. When we do not live in the activation of that revelation, we set ourselves up for defeat. The abundant life is about getting a revelation and then living according to that blueprint in our thoughts and actions. The enemy cannot prevail against you when you are resting in Holy Spirit's revelation, but the enemy can prevail against you as you rely on information through your own strength and abilities.

 
Often as believers we can get a little information coupled with hope, go in our own strength and ability, and be deceived as we try to make something happen for ourselves. Then we call it faith, although we are doing our own thing; we expect God to show up and make us look good.  Instead of waiting to hear from Holy Spirit before launching out to do anything in the first place!

 
Like my friend Kris Vallaton would say, "The problem with being deceived, is that you don't know that you're deceived." As a result, God will say, "Let Me get out of your way so you can try it on your own!" As we are reminded that we are not acting like ourselves, and the words of Jesus echo in our thoughts, "Apart from me you can do nothing."  God does not bless all things! He only blesses those things of which He is a part!

FREE eBook on the Blood Moons ✡ "The Sun Shall Be Turned to Darkness"

The sun shall be turned to darkness, and the moon to blood, before the great and awesome day of the Lord comes.

JOEL (3:4)
 

הַשֶּׁמֶשׁ יֵהָפֵךְ לְחֹשֶׁךְ וְהַיָּרֵחַ לְדָם לִפְנֵי בּוֹא יוֹם יְ-הֹוָה הַגָּדוֹל וְהַנּוֹרָא

יוֹאֵל ג:ד

ha-she-mesh yay-ha-faykh l'-kho-shekh v'-ha-ya-ray-akh l'-dam lif-nay bo yom a-do-nai ha-ga-dol v'-ha-no-ra

Shabbat Inspiration

Tonight begins the Hebrew month of Nissan, known as the ‘Month of our Redemption.’ The Talmud teaches that in the month of Nissan we were redeemed from Egypt and it will be in the month of Nissan in which we will be redeemed once again. Many see a Divine message in the upcoming Blood Moon which will occur on the first day of the Passover holiday, and which is preceded by today's exceedingly rare solar eclipse, one that happens only every 100,000 years. What do you think of this extraordinary series of events? Learn more in a fascinating eBook on the Blood Moons from a Jewish perspective.
 

Preview: The Jewish View on Blood Moons

Learn how to ask the right questions in order to make up your own mind about whether the blood moons have a meaning, and if so what?
 

Rare Solar Eclipse Preceding Blood Moon

Today's total eclipse of the sun at the North Pole, a place of significant meaning, on the first day of Nissan, the first month in the Biblical calendar year, may be more than just coincidental, in light of the upcoming Passover Blood Moon.

Europe Anti-Semitism Triggers Record Jewish Exodus

Europe Anti-Semitism Triggers 

Record Jewish Exodus

BRUSSELS and PARIS -- Terrorist attacks and rising anti-Semitism have convinced more European Jews there is no future for them or their children in Europe.
That's leading to an exodus of the Jews unprecedented since the creation of Israel.
European governments seem unable to prevent rising terrorist attacks against Jews, and that's made Jews as fearful as they've been since the Holocaust.
For a lot of Jews, the killing in Paris at Charlie Hebdo and the kosher supermarket was simply the last straw. It's the kind of bloodshed they had feared would happen.
Anti-Semtism in Europe has become stronger both because of more Muslim immigration and because of the leftist European media's constant demonization of Israel.
"We are facing a different kind of anti-Semtism: what we can call the traditional anti-Semtism, which is centuries old anti-Semitism, and a new phase of anti-Semistism, which is anti-Zionism; the critic of Israel who is actually hiding a real anti-Semistim," Joël Rubinfeld, of the Belgian League Against Anti-Semitism, explained.
A special U.S. envoy who recently returned from Scandinavia said Jews are under threat there as well. Rabbis are undergoing self-defense training. Virtually all synagogues in Europe have their own security or police protection.
European governments know that this new exodus of the Jews is a tragedy. But they seem unable or unwilling to do what it takes to stop the violence.
Experts say when Jews leave, it is the sign of a sick society. Jewish leaders CBN News talked to warn that Jews are only the first victims, and that other groups, particularly Christians, will face the same danger someday if something isn't done.

Israeli Christians: We'll No Longer Live a Lie

Israeli Christians: We'll No Longer Live a Lie

Thursday, March 19, 2015 |  Yossi Aloni   ISRAEL TODAY
The National Zionist Congress for Youth convened last week to discuss the phenomenon of emigration from the Land of Israel. On what turned out to be a fascinating panel were Mia Morano, widow of IDF special forces officer Emanuel Moreno who was killed in the Second Lebanon War, Israeli priest Father Gabriel Naddaf and IDF Major Elias Karam, the first Arab Christian to join the naval officers’ school.
Naddaf opened the panel by recalling that he was born in Nazareth when the population was predominantly Christian with a Muslim minority. “Today it is the opposite,” he lamented, noting that Christians should find in Israel a natural home. “Christianity came from Judaism,” Naddaf stated. “Without Judaism, Christianity doesn’t exist.”
But in the rest of the Middle East, the situation is much different.
“During the ‘Arab Spring’ we saw the collapse of governments lead to the Muslim slaughter of Christians. And they still call them ‘brothers,’” said Naddaf. “I can not dress like this in my priestly garments in Iran or Saudi Arabia.”
Father Naddaf went on to address his own son’s recent enlistment in the IDF, which he encouraged: “I sent my son to serve in the Israeli army. The IDF is the most moral army in the world. We don’t arbitrarily kill people.”
As spiritual leader of the Israeli Christian Recruitment Forum that actively encourages all young Arabic-speaking Christians to join the IDF, Father Naddaf explained that he “understands that it is essential to connect Christian Arabs to Israel and the Jews.”
But the Israeli Arab leadership, he said, “has fooled us into living a lie. They call Israel an apartheid state, but when anyone suggests an exchange of territories, [these leaders] protest because they know life is better in Israel.”
Mia Moreno told the youth about her return to Jewish faith and being raised in the Sinai when it was still under Israeli control. “The Jewish faith does not require everyone to be the same,” she noted. “I sit here beside Father Naddaf, he a Christian priest and me a religious Jewish woman, and we can and must live in peace with one another.”
Major Elias Karam told the youth gathering that as an Arabic-speaking Christian he is proud to wear the uniform of the IDF. “I volunteered for the army. I could have been a doctor or a lawyer, but I chose a different path,” said Maj. Karam. “In doing so, I stayed true to my dream.”
Congress organizer Jacob Haguel of the World Zionist Organization said the event, co-sponsored by the Zionist Council in Israel, sought to “bring together the leaders of the next generation. This congress represents the beautiful mosaic that is Israel including…Druze and Jews, religious and secular, periphery and center.”

"A Covenant with Abram" ✡ Are the Settlements Good or Bad?

On that day the Lord made a covenant with Abram, saying: ‘Unto thy seed have I given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates.’

GENESIS (15:18)
 

בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא כָּרַת יְ-הוָה אֶת אַבְרָם בְּרִית לֵאמֹר לְזַרְעֲךָ נָתַתִּי אֶת הָאָרֶץהַזֹּאת מִנְּהַר מִצְרַיִם עַד הַנָּהָר הַגָּדֹל נְהַר פְּרָת

Today’s Israel Inspiration

When Israeli Knesset member Naftali Bennett spoke in New York last year and was heckled by protesters questioning Israel’s right to the Land, he took an ancient coin from his pocket and declared: “This coin, which says ‘Freedom of Zion’ in Hebrew, was used by Jews 2,000 years ago in the State of Israel, in what you call occupied.” He bravely asserted: “One cannot occupy his own home!” Learn more about the real story of the Land of Israel with an informative 30 page softcover book filled with charts, pictures and facts telling the vital truth about Israel.
