THE GODS OF THE BIBLE; The Generation of God.


Bidemi Olu-Davies...

Teaching…

The Generation of God… The Gods.

It has been a sort of intrigue to me as I go through  the Scriptures how God manifests in diverse dimensions. After rigorous self study, I discovered that God manifests as a Divine Being with many attributes: when He manifests in Righteousness, He is called Jehovah Tsidkenu (meaning God our Righteousness); as Provider; Jehovah Jireh etc.but this is not what I want to talk about today. In the Authorized King James version of  of the Bible, He manifested in the same diverse ways He always has in my own belief an English perspective of the revelation of the Being, God. Follow me as I take you through an expo of  this Divine Being of the Authorized King James Bible.

Genesis 1:1
In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.

Genesis 2:3
And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it, because that in it he had rested from all his work which he had made.

Genesis 2:4
These are the generations of the heavens and the earth when they were created in the day that the LORD GOD made the earth and the heavens.
From the above three verses of the Hallowed Scriptures, we have seen God as revealed manifesting as God and the LORD GOD.
God creating the earth and the LORD GOD forming or making the earth (from the word, made).

Next! Lets consider Genesis 7:1 when God wants to destroy the earth with a flood.
… and the LORD said unto Noah, come thou, and all thy house into the ark for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation.

Genesis 9:1
And God remembered Noah and every living thing and all the cattle that was with him in the ark and God made a wind to pass over the earth and the water assuaged.
Here, we see the LORD and God manifesting towards the same purpose; the salvation of Noah and his family in the to be destroyed earth.
I would like you to keep in mind the fact that the different elements of the God Head manifests in conjunction with one another and not independently; the Lord God, the Lord and God manifesting individually but not independent of one another fostering the same purpose with a mutual connivance between each of the elements.

Looking at Genesis 14:18-19
And Melchizedek, King of Salem brought forth bread and wine and he was the priest of the most High God. And he blessed him and said, Blessed be Abram of the Most High God the possessor of heaven and earth…
… meaning Melchizedek referred to the element of the God Head of which he is the Priest; the most High God.
In essence, God created the heaven and the earth, the Lord God made the heaven and the earth, the Lord destroyed it with a flood upon seeing the wickedness of man and the most High God is the Possessor of the heaven and the earth. Four manifestations of the elements of the God Head functioning in harmony with the Divine will in the Old Testament!

Let’s now look at the manifestations of the elements of the God Head in the New Testament.

Revelations 4:2-5
And immediately, I was in the Spirit and behold a throne was set in heaven and one sat on the throne.
And he that sat was to look upon like a jasper and a sardine stone; and there was a rainbow round about the throne in sight like unto an emerald.
And round about the throne were four and twenty seats; and upon the seats I saw four and twenty elders sitting clothed in white raiment and they had on their heads crowns of gold.
And out of the throne proceeded lightnings and thunderings and voices and there were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne which are the seven spirits of God.

Revelations 6:1-2
And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder and one of the four beasts saying, come and see.
And I saw, and behold a white horse and he that sat on him had a bow and a crown given unto him; and he went forth conquering and to conquer.

Revelations 19:11,12,15 & 16
And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat on him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.
His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.
And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.
And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and treadeth the winepress of the fierceness  and wrath of Almighty God.
And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.

The elements of the God Head manifested in three dimensions in the New Testament in the Book of Revelations as:
1.     The one seated on the throne surrounded by the twenty-four elders
2.     The rider upon the white horse of the first seal
3.     The rider upon the white horse- the Word of God

PROPHECY (Revelations 10:7, Revelations 22:13)

… Amen! But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished as he hath declared to his servants the prophets… Even so… Amen! I am Alpha and Omega.

A Word about the Lamb…

The Lamb of God slain since the foundation of the world is not Jesus the Christ as erroneously believed in christian circles! But the offering of Abel to God of a sweet smelling savour accepted of The  Father, a firstling of his flock and of the fat thereof. Amen. Worthy is the Lamb, no wonder the LORD had respect unto Abel and his offering. Abel as a type of Christ here. 
Amen.

Revelations  5
And I beheld, and lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it has been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth… (read to the end of chapter)

Read Genesis 4: 4.

The Word of God says, “I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end the first and the last” meaning, God manifested in all the elements of Divinity, maintaining His Divine attributes in all the elements unchangeably.

This reminds me of the law of conservation of energy, “energy cannot be created nor destroyed but can be converted from one form to the other in the course of a reaction”

God manifesting in Seven dimensions with His Power and Divine attributes intact and unchangeable. The Immortal God! Amen!

The seven manifestations of God in the entire Scriptures talks about the Generations of God as seen in the Book of Isiaiah 11:1-3 manifest as the seven spirits of God. See Revelations 5:6.

Isiaiah 11:1-3
And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, a branch shall grow out of his roots. And the spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him,spirit of wisdom and understanding, spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord…

See
1.     GOD; Genesis 1:1 – Spirit of the Lord
2.     The Lord God; Genesis 7:1 – Spirit of Wisdom
3.     The Lord; Genesis 7:1 Spirit of Understanding
4.     The Most High God; Genesis 14: 18-19 – Spirit of counsel
5.     The One seated on the Throne; Rev.4:2-5 Spirit of Might
6.     The Rider upon the white horse of the 1st seal; Rev.6:1-2 Spirit of Knowledge
7.     The rider upon the horse The Word of God; Rev. 19:11-16 Spirit of the fear of the Lord.

Revelations 4:5
And out of the throne proceeded lightnings and thunderings and voices: and there were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God.

Zechariah 3:9
For behold the stone that I have laid before Joshua; upon one stone shall be seven eyes; behold, I will engrave the graving thereof, saith the Lord of hosts and I will remove the iniquity of the land in one day.

Zechariah 4:10
For who hath despised the day of small beginings? For they shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet in the hand of Zerubabbel with these seven; they are the eyes of the LORD , which run to and fro through the whole earth. AMEN!

LOVE IS...


Bidemi Olu-Davies talking about Love in…

LOVE IS…

Everyone knows that love is good and that it’s good to love but what or who is love? Is love a person or a feeling? These and others is what I want to shed more light on in this article, be blessed as you read. Amen.
The King James Bible says God is love and love is of God… have this at the back of your mind dear reader that a simple definition of “good” is “like God”. So I posit, if love is a person how do I love? Love is not definable outside of the person, Love? Looking at 1Corinthians 13, I discovered the following:
Prophesy does not define love
Understanding mysteries does not define love neither does knowledge and faith
Benevolence does not define love neither does self sacrifice.
But, love is defined by the following attributes:
Love suffereth long… the ability to suffer (go through privations) for a very long time without complaining
Love is kind
Love envieth not, vaunteth not itself and is not puffed up
Love does not conduct itself in a manner that is unseemly, seeketh not “her” own
Love is not easily provoked
Love thinketh no evil
Love rejoiceth not in iniquity but in truth
Love beareth all things
Love believeth all things
Love hopes in all situations
Love endureth all things (situations)
The above are the attributes of the person called love, the Person God.
The Bible exhorts us to put on love which is the bond of perfectness.

How do we love? Or what is expected of a person “in love”?

All these elements described above are what perfect love entails and are the attributes in a life that can be said to be in love… it all takes a conscious effort to be loving.
I pray the Lord God Almighty help us to love and be loving as we allow His Holy Spirit to envelop us as we “put on love”.
The Bible says Love never fails, the reason believers end up as failures in life – failing God and themselves is because they lack the spirit of love.
I pray for you, you shall not end up a failure in life and destiny as you walk in love by God’s Grace. Amen!

Shalom!
