5/24/18 BOND SERVANT!

 

This afternoon I heard the Lord say, BOND SERVANT.  I was very humbled and honored to think I finally made it to His bond servant, remembering Neville’s vision about that honor of access.  Then the Lord brought into memory the phrase, she has given herself to her Master and I understood the protection of such.

 

Philippians 2:5-8 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: 6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not a thing to be grasped to be equal with God: 7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: 8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.

 

Strong's Greek Dictionary
1401. δοῦλος doulos (doûlos)
Search for G1401 in KJVSL; in KJV.

δοῦλος doûlos, doo'-los

from G1210; a slave (literal or figurative, involuntary or voluntary; frequently, therefore in a qualified sense of subjection or subserviency):—bond(-man), servant.

 

Finally I thought of inheritance vs wages and that a servant works for hire/reward, a bond servant works for love and abiding lifelong with His Master.  In Dec 2015 when I finished my 2nd race, I was suffering burn out and He put me on extended rest.  I knew I had to change from duty to passion.  I was MISERABLE but it was necessary, but oh my - did it change me from duty back to passion.

 

Hosea 2:16 (NLT) 16 When that day comes,” says the Lord, “you will call me ‘my husband’ instead of ‘my master.’

 

Matthew 24:45-46 Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season? 46 Blessed [is] that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.

 

NEVILLE JOHNSON’S VISION OF THE BOND SERVANT

One more thing.  I just sat down to watch the news and suddenly I am in another place.  I am in a passport place in an airport.  Passport control.  I noticed the passport officer is an angel.  I was thinking where is this airport?  People were coming up and he would say “Passport please” and then said, no sorry you cant come through.  He said but I’m a deacon.  So I am getting further back now because I don’t have a password.  The next people came up and he said passport please, and they said we don’t have a passport and the angel said show me your ear.  He had a close look and said yes you can come through. And the door became translucent, like Stargate, a bit like that without the noise.  And they walked straight through it.  I thought wow, what is this place? 

 

So the angel looked straight at me and said you.  I thought here we go and I said I don’t have a passport.  And he said, Show me your ear.  So I showed him my ear and he said you can go in.  I said, whats on my ear?  He said nothing, but there is a hole in it.   And then it dawned on me… a bondservant! 

 

I said whats behind that door?  He said the heavenly realm, you can go in and out as you wish.  I said try this out and I walked through it and I’m in heaven.  I turned around and put my hand through and walked back out again and I’m in the passport place.  I said Lord You are trying to teach me something here aren’t you?  He said the entrance into the heavenly realms He wants to open to us in a greater way, a much greater way.  But you’ve got to have a hole in your ear. 

 

In the OT servants could work for a master for 7 years, but they could go free.  But if the servant said I love it here, I love my family and love to be a part of this and want to be your servant forever, they said OK.  They put the ear against the doorpost and the guy takes an awl, like a nail punch and then whack there is a big hole in your ear.  And now you are a bonded servant. 

 

There are 2 kinds of servants, there are servants and bond servants.  The servants got paid wages and could do anything he wanted to do with them and do what he wanted to do what he wanted on his days off.  He could marry anyone he wishes.  But the bondservant he has a hole in his ear, it is an ear exclusively to his master’s voice.  He is not paid any wages.  But the master of the house will provide everything that he needs.  He didn’t have a day off.  He could not just marry anyone, only whom the master approved for him.  He cannot own anything.  We own stuff and that’s alright, but we should keep it for the Lord, it is not ours.  We hold it in trust for His purposes…. We are talking about a major consecration here.

 

QUOTE NEVILLE TRUE AND FALSE JOSEPHS

The Lord also spoke to me about the rise of false Josephs. Much has been preached and written about the Joseph ministries. The problem is much of the teaching on this subject is self-centered. Many are claiming to have a Joseph ministry; however it must be remembered what Joseph went through to come to a place where he could be trusted with the wealth of Egypt. Motive is everything in God’s Kingdom. Jesus had a scathing rebuke to those who prophesied, and those who healed the sick and did miracles but did not really know the heart of God.

 

Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. Mt 7:22-23

 

True Josephs have a heart to see Jesus receive His inheritance, not our inheritance. Our inheritance is the Lord, not things. Only those completely surrendered to His will can function as a Joseph. It is the Bond-Servant relationship that is central to this ministry. It is not about what God wants to give us; it is about us giving to Him our lives in absolute surrender. The line between building His Kingdom and our kingdom so often becomes blurred. Everything Joseph did was for Pharaoh the king, and likewise the same applies to us and the Kingdom of God. The Godly and famous preacher Andrew Murray was once asked, “What is the greatest need for Christians today?” He replied, “Absolute Surrender”. We cannot have all that God has for us until He has all of us. Joseph ministry is not about making you wealthy, it’s about making sure that Jesus  receives His inheritance in this earth. 

 

WORD TO PONDER – TO BE MY BOND SERVANT 5/24/18

Dear ones, to the degree that you have yielded your life to Me, I am replacing your life for Mine.  Throughout the years I have been doing a work in your heart to the place where you serve Me with first love passion, and not because it is the right thing to do.  As this process is completed in your life, you become My bond servant.  I am no longer your Master, but your Husband!  Your yieldedness and obedience gives you My protection and hiddenness from enemy attacks.  You no longer work for Me for wages, but for abiding with Me in fellowship.  You have access to all My heavenly riches in heavenly places.  Come dear bond servants dwell with Me for all that I have is yours!

 

1 Corinthians 7:21-24 (Passion Translation NT) 21 Were you a slave when you heard the call to follow Jesus? Don’t let that concern you. Even if you can gain your freedom, make the most of the opportunity. 22 For truly, if you are called to a life-union with the Lord, you are already a free man! And those who were called to follow Jesus when they were free are now the Messiah’s slaves. 23 Since a great price was paid for your redemption, stop having the mind-set of a slave. 24 Brothers and sisters, we must remain in close communion with God, no matter what our situation was when we were first called to follow Jesus.
