The Lost Art of God's Rest in Prayer
John 15 verse 1|- I am the Vine
John 15:1 I Am the Vine My Father is the Husbandman
There are no words that would describe how I felt as I began to open my Bible and read John 15:1 which say, "I am the vine my father is the husbandman." I have been studying God's Rest and Righteousness since 2011, as a Way of Life.
Psalm 97:2 Clouds and darkness are around Him, and righteousness and judgement are the foundation (Habitation) of His throne.
2 Timothy 3:16 All Scripture is given by inspiration of the Holy Spirit....for the purpose of, "Training in God's Rest and Righteousness."
Yet, this night I began to read this Scripture I understand a little more why there is a "Lost art of God's Rest in prayer" as a Way of Life. Often Scripture is interpreted from the outside of finished works of the cross. The Apostle Paul said in Philippians 3:14, "I press on towards the mark of the high call of God in Christ Jesus."
You see, there is a call that is higher than the call of living in Christ Jesus which is called the "High call of God--in Christ Jesus." This word 'in' represents the idea of relation to Rest, or, "God's Rest in Christ Jesus." Let me explain for a moment what I mean. That is, "Jesus was the Door for the Father to enter in and through to make entrance into every heart of the believer." It was through the cross that Jesus was positioned --in perfect harmony with God (Yet He was God in the flesh as part of the Trinity) for the Father to enter in through to have vital commune with God by being born of Him and vitally joined to His ability. In the Gospel of John Christ Jesus says, "He is the Vine" in which the Father who is the Husbandman. In like manner "The Father enters in through the Vine" and where ever the Father enters into that substance is positioned to be One in God.
Here, I want to share a very potent thought of revelation with you. That is, "When the Father entered through Christ Jesus into our hearts, to have access in order for us to be born of Him and His ability--something powerful happened. "It is through the Life of Jesus the Father entered into and through to come into our hearts not only to cause us to be One and born of Him and His ability--but, to join Christ Jesus and the hearts together in vital holy union."
Jesus said, "I am the Vine and my Father is the Husbandman."
A believing heart is now vitally joined to Christ Jesus in holy union.
