Filteration: Spiritual Persepective

23 July 2012

God leaves me air locked time and time again. You think God has amazed you and then he does a supernatural stunt superseding the previous supernatural miracle. This is our God, who is like Yahweh. None I tell you, none like my Abba father. This post was inspired when I looked at my bbm (blackberry messenger) when my spiritual Daddy (Pastor Trevor Dolan) was chatting to me, everyone should have a spiritual Dad like mine, a true father; we need fathers to arise on the Earth. That my darlings is another post altogether. (Smiles). 

All I wanted to bbm to Dad the following message “I am looking at your profile picture. You have a funnel. The purpose of a funnel is to ensure no oil spillages”. I planned to type just that message but the spirit took over and I was prophetically inspired. Once a started typing and I could not stop, this is what I ended up typing, I could not believe it. Remember I said I typed “I am looking at your profile picture. You have a funnel. The purpose of a funnel is to ensure no oil spillages. (Continuation) at school with the grade sevens we are doing filtration and use a funnel and filter paper. The filter paper represents the word of God. The funnel is red which represents the blood can be associated with Christ. Filtration is a process where the liquid and solid mixture is separated. Only the water passes through.

I was shocked how it all flowed. Dad replied “don’t be amazed. The Bible says GO FORTH DAUGHTERS OF ZION….therefore inspired words and thoughts are going to come forth”

Girl power (Smirk)

Lets decode it all further

There has to be a physical separation between particles.

Example:

Looking at a mixture of corn seeds, magnets with stones, rocks and water is an example of some of our lives. The magnets are examples of the things we could be attracted to. The water is the word of God. Corn seeds are the seeds we have planted in the depths of our hearts, it can be like us waiting to be multiplied and produce fruit. The stones are like obstacles which stand in our way but the rock is Jesus.

Looking at the picture which Pastor had as a profile picture. Il will upload it again to make it easy for you to look at it and think about it.

Study the picture and think about the following questions.

What would be the case if one poured down oil without using a funnel?

Out of 200ml of oil being poured, how much oil do you think will really be poured into an oil tank of a car?

How is it important that we use a funnel when pouring oil into an oil tank?

Let us look now at a water and stones mixture. We will need a beaker if we are in a lab but since we are relating it to a spiritual aspect, let us say it is a clay jar the potter moulded for us. The funnel is Jesus because through we go to the father, the water represents the word and the holy spirit, the filter paper is the word of God.

When people look at you what do they see, do they see Christ?

24^th May 2012

Sunday

On the 23^rd of May 2012 during my study leave my mum informed me a neighbour needed urgent prayer and around 3 pm we had an appointment at a neighbour’s house a road away to pray and God had a divine appointment. Christopher Pillay (a family friend), Vannessa Govender (Best friend/Spiritual Twin and prayer partner), my mother Vinothi Naidoo and I went on a mission to pray. Before the prayer team and I entered territory of this family. I heard someone scream and I felt as if they looked towards our direction. It was difficult hearing through a noisy car driving by and boys talking nearby accompanied by barking Dogs. We followed the voice to see it was the neighbour who just so happens to be related to me (Maternal-Grandmothers first cousin). Now there is not a place I go where I do not find a family member. I went to campus and found a relative. This my dear friends is in another post altogether.

Aunt Punji (interesting name hey, no pun intended hehehehehhuha) said to my mum to please bring us (prayer team) to pray at her house thereafter because she really needs the prayer. We smiled to see how God opened another door for us as a prayer team show casing Christ, fighting against darkness, representing Kainos Covenant Community and as secret agents (A previous blog post).

 After praying we went next door. This vibrant Lady said to my mother, “I DO NOT HAVE TO ASK WHERE IS YOUR DAUGHTER OR ASK IF THIS IS YOUR DAUGHTER. I CAN SEE IT IN THE FACE”. I blushed and then I laughed because I get that a lot in fact people get so confused it’s hilarious for mum and I. We have accepted it because we are blood and we cannot change it. I am called by my mother’s name in countless occasions.

Once I was poking with my first cousin Jachin Samuel Jainarain who is now 9. Before running away from him I gave him hard hit and ran for my life. I went to my mum’s room and I took a breather on her bed. Jachin comes in and complains to me about ME.

 Can you imagine?

 My acting skills kicked in and I played along. I was convincing up until my mother magically appeared all confused asking Jachin what is going on when she is down stairs.

One of many (thinking)

Looking like your mother is either an insult or it can be a compliment.

 Insult because I look old and compliment all because my mother is smart, young and a pretty lady.

P.S Mum I know you are blushing HEHE

Before we left she made a very important statement which got my brain cells thinking to its maximum. This elderly lady said to me I am the RUBBER STAMP OF MY MOTHER. It is the first time either of us heard these words used to describe the replica and exact image of anything for that matter. When we bid farewell I was the last person to hug and kiss her before I leave the house, our Indian cultures-hugging and kissing, not that I mind, so the hugging type.

She said to me you have the exact face of your mum. I heard her the first time, she did not have any form of Alzheimer’s, that’s for sure but just maybe she was so much in shock of how much at twenty-two I look like my mother double my age. It seemed far beyond looks but character too.

Alexander John Govender (mentioned in my introduction and my post called “When you die what Legacy are you leaving behind?”) jokes around a lot. I laugh myself sick every time I spend weekends in South Africa, Kwa-Zulu Natal, Phoenix. John says if you want to know what your wife (Andrea {Logandrie}Govender)will look like when she is old try looking at her mother  (Angela {Saras} Chetty) {Maternal} and he claims he saw his mother in law and knew it was safe . HEHEHE ummh makes one think

When people look at you do they say you look like Jesus?

Do they say you have character traits of Jesus?

When you look in the mirror, what do you see?

Some of is avoid looking in the mirror because reality kicks in.

(Read post called acting)

Paul in the Bible speaks of being imitators of Christ and we must also be doers of the word.

It makes perfect sense. If we are to become Christ like we need to imitate our role model, which is Christ and Christ is the word made flesh so we need to be doers of the word.

1 Corinthians 4 V 16

I beg you therefore, be imitators of me and goes on in 1 Corinthians 11 V 1 “Be imitators of me, even as I also am of Christ”.

Ephesians 5 V 1 as Beloved Children be imitators

We set examples and are role models to people around us and those whom we influence as Philippians 3 v 17 says “Brother, be imitators together of me, and note those who walk this way, even as you have us as an example”

Remember the previous post on Gods promises; in fact the Bible is full of it. If you want to inherit them, DO NOT BE SLUGGISH. Hebrews 6 V 12 says “Do not be sluggish, but imitators of those who through faith and patience inherited the promises”

We will be protected from evil if we become imitators 1 Peter 3V13 “Now who will harm you, if you become imitators of that which is good”
