And the LORD said unto Moses, Wherefore criest thou unto me?
speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward: But lift thou up thy
rod, and stretch out thine hand over the sea, and divide it: and the children
of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea. (Exo 14:15-16)
Jesus prayed in John 17 that His Body, the church to be one
and to be in Christ as He was one with the Father. It is liken to a pickle
immersed in the pickling solution, the pickle being in the solution and the
pickle infused with the pickling solution; both are one in flavor and aroma. A
nonabsorbent material can never be pickled no matter how long it stays in the solution;
hence it lacks oneness. Baptism in the
Holy Spirit is essentially that the child of God is so deeply immersed in
Christ and out of that immersion he or she has the mind, character qualities
and outworking of Christ nature.
And the LORD said unto Moses, See, I have made thee a god to
Pharaoh: and Aaron thy brother shall be thy prophet. (Exo 7:1)
Intercession is to stand on behalf of another as a priest
before God. When we are one with the Lord Jesus in will and mind there
are prayers that God want us to exercise in the same authority as He would. He is looking for those who would be kings and
priests, not in heaven but on the earth (Rev 5:10). Jesus wants His church on earth to be Him
to the lost and dying world (1 John 4:17). Are willing to be cleansed, set apart, and
molded according to His standards. Aaron’s priestly garments are made in one
size only; it is for us to fit into the role not the role fit into us.
