Hi John,
Thanks again for the great classes this weekend from Revelation.
There were a few standout things – the first was about saying, “I didn’t mean to do that” or “I didn’t know I did that”, etc. As you said, it’s merely changing the subject. That will stick with me a lifetime, I believe. If I do something that is not right, it’s because that thing was in my heart. I have a feeling God will give me the opportunities. I want own up to it and get it right with God, and move ON with God – praying that such a desire is in my heart. My actions will tell. That was great.
Another thing was what you said about intimacy/communion with God being a place of “cleansing”. That was an invitation to go/stay there!
And thirdly, was about not blaming anybody for anything. It’s not about them – It’s about God. God is behind everything that comes our way. EVERYTHING.
These three things really went deep for me this weekend.
BUT… I have to say that in addition to these things – among the top highlights for me was you telling about the story of Ahithophel and David. I love it when those stories come to life. I get a great feeling of gratitude “tickle” me when you take us to those places, and it gets so understandable and real life. We should be very, very grateful to have access to solid food and anointed teaching…. it’s so rare and valuable. I feel very blessed to be under and among the people He has joined me to. I look forward to the final episode!
