Are You Awake? By Jan Sill

ARE YOU AWAKE

Last year on a quiet afternoon, I was resting with nothing much on my mind. Suddenly, I heard a bold voice say clearly, “Are you awake?”

I Knew immediately this was a message from the Lord. The Prophets have been declaring for the past several years, “The Great Awakening” Honestly, when I first heard Him say, “Are you awake?”, I wanted to say YES, but I stopped to reevaluate my own heart; of which is imperative we all must do.

Am I fully awake? Are you fully awake? It says, if possible, even the elect could be deceived. Deception is everywhere. Christ is coming as a thief in the night. The world is very dark and getting darker so fast. We need to stay Spirit-Filled and refuse to allow our hearts to be darkened. Father, help us to keep the Fire of God in our hearts, and walk in His righteousness. Let me ask, do people see Jesus in you? Looking at the parable of the ten virgins, we see they are all Believers. Those who are wise will have the oil they need, and it is the foolish that will not have enough oil. It is the oil that creates the fire in my lamp. The FIRE of God in us is what causes others to see Christ in us As it gets darker in the world, the fire will grow brighter in us. The Word of God says my ministers are as flaming fire. Keep your lamps trimmed and full of My oil. Be ready! Colossians 1:27 Christ in you is the Hope of Glory. He is our Head and will guide us in all Truth. We are His Body. He is the light that is seen in you. Without the oil, His light cannot be seen. He is warning us…time is slipping away. Keep your armor on and be ready, for we do not know the time, but all signs say His coming could be soon. He said in the last days He would do a quick work

PARTAKERS

1 Peter 1:4 We are being made partakers of His divine nature and par-takers of His great and precious promises. The word Partakers is comprised of two words, Part and Take. We must Take our Part. Isaiah 60:3 For behold darkness and deep darkness are the people; but the Lord will rise upon you and His Glory will appear on you. The Lord Cares about where we are spiritually. Are you taking your part?

Are you prepared?

PREPARE

Looking closely at the word Prepare, PREmeans “before” and PARE-means “to remove the flesh”. Jesus said, I go to PREPARE a place for you and where I am, there you will be also. We must allow our flesh to die that He may live and shine through us. He is the light of the world. Without Him there would be total darkness. Let your light shine.

TESTAMENT

Let us look at the word Testament as in The New Testament. It is comprised of three parts… Test-Amen-T. Notice the Cross is at the end (t). It is all about Him! We are being tested and we must pass the tests of life. to grow into spiritual maturity. (Your testimony). Jesus Christ is Lord. 1 Corinthians 15:51 Behold, I show you a mystery. We shall not all sleep, but shall all be changed.

2 Corinthians 3:18 But we all with open faces, beholding as in a glass, The Glory of The Lord are changed into the same image from Glory to Glory even as by The Spirit of The Lord.

The word "Name" means Nature. His Name or His Nature is Love. I believe that is why we are taught to pray, “In Jesus Name” after every prayer. The fruit of His Spirit was born in us, and therefore He said, you must be born again. It is the seed of Christ in us that will grow up into maturity (sonship). There is neither male nor female in the spirit. His Nature is Love, Joy, Peace, Gentleness, Kindness, Patience, Faith, Self-control, and Long Suffering. His first commandment is to love Him with all our heart, soul, mind and strength, and others as ourselves.

God is watching 2 Thessalonians 1:10 When He shall come to be glorified “In His Saints” and be admired “In” all that believe (because our testimony was believed in that day). Vs 12 That the Name (Nature) of The Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified “in you”, and you in Him according to the Grace of our God and The Lord Jesus Christ. Hallelujah! Revelations 12:11 And they overcame him by the Blood of The Lamb, the word of their testimony, and they loved not their own lives even unto death. This story is deep and wide and much more than I can say. Holy Spirit is our teacher and comforter. Philippians 1:6 Being confident of this very thing, that HE that began a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ.

Proverbs 9:10 The fear of the Lord, is the beginning of wisdom.

John 15:12 Help us to love one another, even as He has loved us.

We will all stand before The Judgement Seat of Christ.

The content of this article is deep and wide. My hope is you will search the scriptures for yourself.

Psalms 51:10 Create in me a clean heart, oh God, and renew a right spirit within me.
