Daily Rhema: TEMPORAL RESURRECTION OF THE MORTAL BODY

Psalms 37:6 KJV
And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday.

It is the will of God that the life of God in full measure be made manifest in our mortal bodies in this lifetime, causing the redemption of our bodies and brains. The scriptures reveal to us the reality of a temporal resurrection of our mortal bodies in this lifetime! (2Cor. 4:10-11; Rom. 8:11).

We already have the life of God in a measure (Rom.12.3) being made manifest in our mortal bodies when we speak in tongues (Act.2.4), and experience divine healing, (Prov. 4.22).

However, God now wants His life to be made manifest in full measure! This will result in a manifestation of God’s glory that will attract the attention, admiration and reverence of all men; fulfilling 2Thessalonians 1:10 and many other scriptures:

Why are we always delivered unto death for Jesus’ sake?

Now, why is it that we must firstly carry about in our bodies the dying of the Lord Jesus before, we can experience the manifestation of the fullness of the life of God in our mortal bodies?

God allows us to be delivered unto death (meaning to be attacked by Satan with the purpose of killing us physically) to give God a legal basis to punish Satan and his cohorts forever in the lake of fire (2Thess.1:5-9).

It is instructive to note that while we carry in our bodies the dying of the Lord Jesus: experiencing the fellowship of His sufferings and being made conformable unto His death: we will not die physically.

We will die to self: crucifying the lusts of the flesh by the power of the Holy Spirit; doing this will requires physical discipline to deny self and legitimate pleasures (sleeping, eating, etc.) to give extra time in prayer and the Word, fulfilling Luke 9:23, Romans 8:13.

As we practice this, we will feel sometimes to some bearable degree (1Cor. 10.13) in our bodies, the weaknesses and pains of physical death as revealed in 2Corinthians 4:12, 16.

Why does God allow us to feel these weaknesses and pains?

To give a permanent death blow to pride in our hearts: so that when the life of God in fullness is ultimately made manifest in our mortal flesh, we will remain humble and treat other men with mercy, having been touched with the feeling of their infirmities, like the Lord Jesus was with ours (Heb. 4.15).

How does feeling weakness and pain remove pride from our hearts?

Proverbs 20:30 NKJV: Blows that hurt cleanse away evil, as do stripes the inner depths of the heart.

The good news in all of this is that, though we will feel these weaknesses and pains for a while, they will not overwhelm us: we will be able to bear and ultimately overcome them by the power of the Holy Spirit (Pro. 18:14; 1Cor.10:13).

Once the work of permanent humility has been achieved in the heart through the feeling of the weaknesses and pains, God will suddenly allow the fullness of the life God to be made manifest in our mortal bodies permanently.

1Peter 5:10 NKJV
But may the God of all grace, who called us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you.

The daily renewing of the inner man will now be made manifest in the outer man, so fulfilling Malachi 3:1.
