YOU must first BE before you can DO.
Jesus went to the wilderness by the Spirit, to be tried and tested....not to fast and pray for power.
the issue at stake was His divine identity.
......IDENTITY....
a divine I.D had been pasted on Him by the prophetic word. ( that's what the prophetic word does to you.) "this is My beloved SON in whom I am well pleased!"
but His identity was locked in the voice of God..IN WHAT God said , not a manifestation....
He refused to try to prove His IDENTITY by an ACTIVITY.
He refused to turn stone to bread to prove a point...that He was the SON of God.
He was secure in His identity....and when He was proven to be SECURE IN HIS DIVINE IDENTITY WITHOUT DIVINE ACTIVITY, God released Him into Divine Activity to express (not validate) His divine Prophetic Identity.
AFTER THE PROPHETIC WORD COMES TO YOU AND YOU EMBRACE IT YOU WILL GO THRU A SEASON OF PROVING...proving of your security in your divine identity.
How secure are you in your divine I.D?
THIS IS THE REASON FOR LONG SEASONS OF BELIEVING THE PROPHETIC WORD WITHOUT SEEING ANY DIVINE ACTIVITY AS GOD PROMISED.
Abraham must live and wander on in the wilderness for long seasons (24yrs) with the new name and identity as "Father of Nations"(given by the prophetic word) without a single child to prove it.
David must live and wander seemingly "aimlessly"...(how many times has that word been used to describe you o man of destiny!)...in the wilderness for many years with the new identity as the new king (given by the prophetic word)without seeing anything like royalty...rather quite the opposite...he was a wandering vagabond!
Joseph must go on for years in shame ,reproach and contradictions to the new identity given to him by the prophetic Word and vision, through dreams without a sign of fulfilment...live in the identity...no matter what you see!
YOU MUST ENDURE EVERY CONTRADICTION TO YOUR PROPHETICALLY REVEALED IDENTITY, FOR LONG SEASONS, WITHOUT A SIGN OF FULFILMENT, BEFORE GOD RELEASES YOU!
...word to the wise...
