The fourth element of fourth dimensional spirituality is the area of visions and dreams. I want to write a little longer than usual today to help you get this. I have been given a heart of compassion for God's sheep. I really want to see you receive from God whatever you need today. Let's go...
There is no way for human beings-whether highly educated or not-to go beyond the human dimension in their own strength. To live in God's dimension, we should receive His life and inspiration from His Spirit. That is why Jesus said to Nicodemus, "No one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again." Once one is born again he or she is a candidate for visions and dreams. Acts 2: 17 says; 'In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams.'
THE LANGUAGE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
My spiritual mentor and pastor Dr. Cho of Seoul, Korea says that "visions and dreams are the language of the Holy Spirit." To live in the fourth dimension we must understand this "language." Language is simply a way of communicating. If you go to another country where you cannot understand the language, you would have problems communicating. Let me illustrate; This is one reason why so many Christians are sick. They don't understand the language of healing. For example; they refuse to see themselves healed by the stripes of Jesus before healing manifests. They are living in the third dimension or the realm of the senses. Healing is already yours. Jesus paid the full price for you health upon the cross. They key is to imagine, visualize and SEE YOURSELF HEALED. You must have an inner vision of healing. That's faith!
WE MUST BUILD LARGE CHURCHES
Dr. Cho has built the world's largest church, a church of over 730,000 members (some say over 800,000, but I am being conservative) through understanding this FOURTH DIMENSIONAL principle. He started out financially broke with 5 members (including his future wife and mother-in-law) meeting under an old U.S. Army tent. He said he would preach with his eyes closed and visualize, imagine and see himself preaching to thousands. His faith brought to past the world's largest church. The largest Church in America, Joel Osteen's Lakewood Church only has 43,500 in attendance, which is commendable. I love Joel he preaches good news. (I met his kind dad, the late brother John Osteen years ago at a ministers' conference).
AMERICAN CHURCHES
Dr. Cho has over 730,000 actual members that attend home cell groups every week. That is a miracle! America's largest Churches are small compared to what God has done in Korea. His church has literally changed the economy of Korea through the fourth dimensional spirituality. They have seen as many as 10.000 souls saved and added to the church per month for years. Many corporate executives attend this Full Gospel church and over 3,000 members are millionaires.
The American Church has a long way to go. Most American churches are built on charismatic pastors and not by prayer and visions and dream of the Holy Spirit. We tend boast if we gather a few hundred or thousand people, and the pastor buys a new Lexus, when in Korea a Church of 10,000 is actually considered a small church. WOW!
We need to make our visions and dream big enough for God to fit in them!
OLD WINESKINS
God has been using this language of the Holy Spirit to change many lives, but many of God's people are ignorant of this language. Over the years when I have started teaching on vision, dreams, visualization and imagination, I have always lost some old students and gained some new ones. Jesus said; " you can't put new wine in old wineskins." They say; this stuff about visualization and imagination is evil and brother Smalls you are now teaching New Age doctrine. I am now nonchalant about such ignorance and foolishness. New-Age has taken the concepts of God and used them more than the Church has due to fear and religion. Religious fear is what makes one an old wine-skin. Let's break out of our religion and fear and live in the fourth dimension.
HOW TO BE HEALED
Since we are so limited in time and space, the only way for us to incubate is through our imaginations, through the visions and dreams that the Holy Spirit has given us. The Holy Spirit comes upon us, He will inspire us with His dreams. We need to have the dreams of God inspired by the Holy Spirit. The fourth dimensional dreams incubate the third dimension by giving us definite visions and dreams so that we can have clear-cut goals and objectives. WE MUST VISUALIZE the end result before it happens by faith.
Here is a little fourth dimension assignment. I Peter 2: 24 says 24 who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness-by whose stripes you were healed.
DO YOU REALLY WANT TO BE HEALED?
If you are sick and you want to be healed here is what you should do:
- Get a thick notebook and some good pens.
- Get alone with God and say; I believe I Peter 2: 24!
- Write the scripture (1 Peter 2: 24) down 10, 000 times in your notebook.
- Each time you write it close your eyes and see Jesus bleeding on the cross. He was scourged for your healing - check out this link; http://the-crucifixion.org/scourging.htm
5. See, visualize, and imagine yourself well.
6. Say each time after you write; By His stripes I am healed!
7. Imagine yourself 100% healthy!!!
DON'T BE SPIRITUALLY LAZY
Hebrews 6:11-12 (New International Version) says; We want each of you to show this same diligence to the very end, in order to make your hope sure. We do not want you to become
lazy, but to imitate those who through
faith and patience inherit what has been
promised.
This is just
one way to apply fourth dimensional faith. I have and I have not been to a doctor in over 30 years other than for routine physical examinations. Thank God, by His stripes we
were healed. Thank God for Jesus and His sacrifice! Don't let His scourging be in vain. Rise up! Pray and receive your healing.
You too can SEE YOURSELF HEALED through visualizing Jesus on the cross bearing your sickness and pain!
