The Eclipse Of The Mind…
Disconnected souls are blind, confused, and have no divine direction…
Before I can get started, I need to let you see what the word Eclipse means to us as believers. The meaning is this, “obscure the light from or to another celestial body” (as the last piece of the sun was eclipsed by the moon). In other words, light is being blocked by the dark. Umbra is Latin for “shadow” and is the innermost and darkest part of a shadow where the light source is completely blocked by the occluding body. An observer in the umbra experiences a total eclipse, OK, so let’s deal with who created the light and the darkness.
And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness. And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were first day. {Genesis 1:3-5}
Jesus willingly came down from the luxurious heaven, to reinstate the light and remove the darkness from their minds. The word recovery in this article means, to open the eyes of sinners and to reinstate the disconnected souls if they choose to come back to the light, Jesus the Christ. So, now this light of salvation brings with it the power to remove darkness and all that comes within this hidden disconnect. The word darkness in this text will refer to the devil because he is the darkness that wants to convince all lost souls that he is the new and better god of the earth. Listen, very closely, the devil is referred to as the prince of darkness. And one of his cloaks he hides behind, is the covering of a deceiver. He is a master scammer, and he will come after any unprotected soul. Again, he has multiple forms in which he can slip into your life and condemn you. Not only that but he is the father of lies, and he wants nothing more than to take over your mind, body and soul. And if you allow him to do so you shall become one of his children of the night. So lets listen to the word of God:
For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore, it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness, whose end shall be according to their works
{2 Corinthians 12:13-15}.
Once more, the devil has his flake ministers working for in even in the church where you attend. However, if you have redeemed vision, well then, you will know who they are because of their fruit. As it was when the devil was called in question. Now, the word of God has a question for the fallen souls, as he did with the devil.
How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! How are thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my thrown above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north. I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit. {Isaiah 14: 12-15}
OK, the first thing that we need to see is this:
1. The devil was identified by his given name. Then a question was put to him, by our Father; which was, “How did you fall from grace?” And you need to see here, that the creator said, “he was the son of the morning.”
2. God reiterated again, but this time he asked him, “How did you get cut down to the ground?” Which signified Beelzebub, no longer has any divine connection with heaven, nor do he have divine power or insight within him anymore.
3. You have willingly and deliberately weakened the nation for your own selfish desires.
4. The self in the devil said, “I will ascend into heaven.”
5. “I will exalt my thrown above the stars of God.”
6. “I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north.”
7. “I will ascend above the heights of the clouds.”
8. “I will be like the most, High.”
Listen, and please get this: Anyone with this mind set is a doubled minded person. Please digest this bit of nourishment; In this realm, there is absolutely no referendum for any sort of relief associated within this quandary.
A doubled minded man is unstable in all his ways. {James 1:8}
Once again, I am compelled to tender this to you: A doubled minded person cannot receive anything from the Lord because they have been disconnected from the vine of Jesus the Christ of God. Therefore, this is why they are called unstable people. However, if we are children of the light then we do have the mind of Christ, and we know all things because we are constantly renewed through our minds. In this way, we are assured that we can know the good, perfect, and acceptable ways of the Lord is for our lives. Dwelling in this peaceful cove we serve the Father of consistent divine light, and we do so with joy.
Ye are the light of the world. A city that cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put if under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. {Matthew 5:14-16}.
Lovingly I tell you these words: Any soul that hides from the light can never please God, because they are hiding under the shadows of the devil. This means you have willingly rejected God and descended into the throne of the devil. Maybe you don’t know, but when Adam allowed his wife to sin, God called out to him, and asked “where are you?” Adam thought he was hiding from God because he knew he had sinned. As a direct result of his breach, he and his wife were kicked out of the garden of Eden; and they no longer had the divine light guiding them from that point on. Stay with me now! The eclipse comes into your life whenever you will not comply with the will of the Lord. Jesus said, “I came that you may have life and have it more abundantly.” However, the moment we bow down to the level of this fallen angel, we have become blockers of the light, and the truth at that point is no longer within us. I can’t pontificate this enough. I’m not talking about people who make mistakes as they are growing, but rather I am talking about false people who in word say, “I am of the Lord.” Yet they never bear any fruit that can prove otherwise. Listen, I have met some people, which includes men who call themselves pastors, or bishop, who love their wine. But when I broached an inquiry regarding what the words says about wine; they boldly showed anger towards me. So, they have said things like, “The Lord turned water into wine, so you are wrong with your assessment; I can drink wine if I want to.” I want you to keep an eye on the Letter (I) because Fiend uses it a lot. That is how he was cut down…
Listen, if you are really saved you cannot hide under anything because the power within you will shine through. OK, get this. I have been in many stores minding my own business, and someone will come over to me and say something like, “Can you pray for me because I am going on a job interview tomorrow?” I never ask, do you know me and who are you? I just pray and say the Lord will bless you. OK, I want to share this with you: When I first started out in ministry, the Lord placed in my Spirit, That I can no longer work on a job. Now that did not sit well with me, and because of my slothfulness, he allowed me to be hurt on the job and I had to leave. Here is the point. One night the Lord said go down to the unemployment place and file a claim. Well in my mind, I knew that was not going to work. At that time, I had not met the qualifications to receive any benefits. I acquiesced to his call. So, I’m sitting in the unemployment office and this young woman, about 25 who was about eight months pregnant, was sitting across from me. She began to stare at me. Before I knew anything, she came over and sat next to me, and started conversing with me. Without knowing it, I began to minister to her; It seemed like she was telling me her whole life, at least that’s how it seemed to me at the time. OK, that is not the kicker; get this. She followed me home, and without any hesitation. When I got home, she just wobbled inside my apartment behind me. She never stopped talking. Are you getting this? I did not know this young woman, nor did she know me. It was the light in me, it’s the light that drew her to me, just like the woman with the issue of blood, she knew if she kept talking to me, she would be made whole. And I am happy to tell you she got her heart’s desire, and she was definitely set free. I pray that after you have viewed this blog that you can also see the light of the Lord shining from afar so that YOU too can receive your deliverance from the eclipse; otherwise you can be duped into the belief that you can never find your way to the light, which is our Father, God.
And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For everyone that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. But he that doeth truth commeth to the light, that his deed may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God. {John 3:19-21}.
Once more, the light is Jesus:
If you love the light, the Lord is with you and you shall have daily fruit to bare you out.
Condemnation emanates from anyone who has willfully rejected the word and will of the Lord.
Jesus is the light that came into this dark sinful earth so that we all may have a chance to see and be seen through the Lords light of deliverance and truth.
Unsaved men love all things of the dark, because they think it is hidden from everyone, and they can freely bask in their hidden pleasures.
Such people are evil, and they hate the truth which in this case is the light, Jesus the Christ of God.
Saved people have no problem with walking in the light because they have nothing to hide.
Too often people really don’t know that God sits on Hight and looks low. Meaning to say, there is nothing hidden from the Father’s eyes and ears. If I had a conclusion, it might go like this:
In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the Lord, and depart from evil {Proverbs 3:6,7}.
BEHOLD, the Lords hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear: But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear {Isaiah 59:1,2}.
Jesus said unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me {John 14:6}.
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scriptures said, WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH ON HIM SHALL NOT BE ASHAMED. {Roman's 10:9-11}.
