THE RIVERS OF EDEN
Adam was created in the perfect image of God Jehovah, which meant that He had the Life and Immortality of God in him. Then we read that God created Eve from Adam and she too shared the Life of God as Adam and Eve were one flesh. The Bible tells us that Eve sinned and deceived Adam who joined her sin, and in Romans 5, we are told that “death reigned by Adam’s offence”. They were cast out of Eden and death came on the human race with thanks to Adam.
There was no death in the Garden of Eden, only LIFE, THE LIFE OF GOD, which Adam shared but lost.
I want to tell you that Jesus Christ defeated death when He arose triumphant with the Keys of death and hell. Death no longer reigns: all Glory to Jesus! Romans6:11 says, “come to the conclusion that you can be alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord”. THE LIFE OF GOD REIGNS.
I hear many saying at this point that yes, I have eternal life through Jesus Christ, and some time after physical death, I shall be raised immortal. Yes this is true, but you will die physically because of sin and death consciousness. People have accepted intellectually that they have to die and this reigns in their consciousness. Read about it in Hebrews 10. I challenge you to go into most Christian churches and you will hear them talking of sin. They talk of sin, because of this sin and death consciousness. This is because although they are born-again, they still have the Adamic nature, rather than the Divine Nature of Jesus Christ. Romans8:2 says that there is a “law of sin and death”. Most Christians live under this law because of the consciousness of it. But there is a higher law, the Law of the Spirit of Life in Jesus Christ, which sets free from the lower law.
This Law of the Spirit of Life in Jesus Christ operated in the Garden of Eden, and for centuries the mystery of the entry back into the realm has been hidden, but now has in this generation, been made known to those whose hearts have thirsted for the Living Water of Life. The only way back has been through the fiery sword of God’s perfecting where the persons fallen Adamic nature gets burnt out and they are translated into the Divine Nature of Jesus Christ. These are God’s Elect.
This message is given as a prophetic word of understanding, and to further encourage the Company of the Sons of God on the earth today awaiting the birthing of His Glorious Kingdom Day. This Day is not a revival of the church day, but will be a New Order on this earth with a New Priesthood born after the similitude of Melchizedek. Church leaders are always looking for revival. Why? Because in their thinking, something has died and needs reviving. God is not going to revive, but do a NEW THING in the earth. I speak these words to honor Jesus Christ my Lord and to reveal the great Spiritual Truths He has taught me. May He Bless you as you have ears to hear.
The literal meaning of the Hebrew word “EDEN” is “delight or pleasure”. The natural place of Eden is now a Spiritual realm which can now be accessed just as it was for Adam. This realm is a place of delight and pleasures, birthed from the transfiguration into the image of Jesus Christ as a complete person, spirit, soul and body having His Life and Immortality as the Sons of God.
David found this realm, and we find his prophetic revelation in Psalm 36: 7-9. He speaks of those that put their trust under the shadow of God’s wings, or, find His Secret Place. In V 8 he says they shall be abundantly satisfied, and that “The Lord will make them drink of the river of His Pleasures”. This word “pleasures” is the same word for “Eden”.
Praise Jesus! David prophecies of a people who find the Secret Place, who will drink of the RIVER IN EDEN, which produces Life.
David goes on in V 9: “for with The Lord is the fountain of Life and in His Light shall we see Light”.
Psalm 87:7 says that “all His Living Waters are in Zion”. You will never find His Immortality in religious Babylon. It is in Spiritual Zion where David found it. I want to say to the Church at this point to hear the Spirit of God. Abandon your man-centred plans and schemes of activity, finances, organisation and yes even competition. Cry out to The Lord now. You need to come back to Zion the City of The Great King. Ask The Lord to bring you the prophets in whose hearts are the highways to Zion. They will gently embrace you and lead you to Zion.
The River in Eden is the River of Life. John had a revelation of this too in Revelation 7:17 - “The Lamb will lead to living fountains of water”. And in Revelation 22:1, John saw the Pure River of the Water of Life proceeding out of the Throne of God and of The Lamb. This River watered the Tree of Life whose leaves were for the healing of the nations. It is the same Tree of Life found in the Garden of Eden which sustained Adam’s life.
Now. In John 14:10, Jesus says that “if you know” the gift of God, you would ask Him and He would give you Living Water which is a well of water springing up into Everlasting Life. You see, you have to come to knowledge of these things. This Knowledge comes from the Spirit of God to those that seek. Knowledge births Understanding which births Wisdom. Proverbs 14:33 says that “wisdom rests in the heart of him that has understanding”. Proverbs 15:32 says “he that refuses instruction despises his own soul, but he that hears gets understanding”. Proverbs 10:21, “fools die for want of wisdom”. Proverbs 8:33 - “hear instruction and be wise, refuse it not. Blessed is the man that hears wisdom (v12) watching daily at wisdom's gates and at its doorposts. For those who find wisdom find LIFE and shall obtain favor of The Lord. But he that hates wisdom wrongs his own soul and loves death”. Proverbs 3:18, “wisdom is a Tree of Life to them that lay hold on her...”.
I share these verses with you because I write only that some may come to knowledge of the Truth. I say “some”, because many will not humble themselves as Solomon says. I write that hearts will be caused to cry out to The Lord and He will favor you. I write to rescue those who will humble themselves, from death. There is still a Spiritual Tree of Life to eat from, and it gives Life. The things which I teach here, many will scorn through lack of knowledge. I write as a prophetic teacher having learnt these things from Jesus Himself simply because I humbled my whole life and sought Him. I sound a trumpet. Hear The Lord. I am instructing with words in this message which if you receive, will spring up in you as a well of Living Water. Become Wise and I tell you, your eyes will be opened to hidden Truth which will change you. Do you want to be changed? There are many reading this who are lost and confused, some living in fear. Jesus will change you – He wants to. You can cry to Him and He will hear and answer you.
I want to go on to reveal a mystery which The Lord has unfolded to me.
We go right back to Genesis 2:8
• The Lord planted a Garden eastward in Eden. The East faces the arising Light of the Presence of The Lord. The tribe of Judah always set up their camp facing the east. It’s where The Light of God arises first. This is why Judah were unique – they had a heart for the very best place in God. This is the heart of David and all his seed. And there he put the man whom He had formed. He wanted man in the place of His planting. He still does. Since He expelled Adam from this realm, He has been preparing a people to place back there. These ones like Adam are formed and fashioned by The Lord. The new Adam is fashioned spiritually after the image of Jesus. The apostle Paul writing to the Christians in Galatia said in his letter in Galatians 4:19, “I travail in birth again until Christ be formed in you”. The Greek meaning here of forming is an actual “change in nature”. The Sons of God are the Company of those whom He has chosen to conform into His Divine Image. They have actually come back to Spiritual Eden to partake of His Life, not in the image of fallen Adam but changed into the image of Jesus with His Life flowing in them. I have been accused of thinking that I am superior claiming Sonship and Election. Actually, it is the opposite because to come to this realm you must humble yourself and submit to the flaming sword which will destroy the Adamic nature with all of its pride, ego and self-ishness until there is nothing left of self and your only security is Jesus Christ the Lord. In this change process the Lord uses the circumstances of life. In my life He stripped me of temporal securities, human friends, put me through the humiliation of personal abuse from people who I considered friends and family, until He was my only refuge and strength. I describe it as a conscious death, but like Jesus it has its Glorious triumphant resurrection into the new creation of His immortal Life. Jesus has annulled the appointment with physical death for those who have seen the Glory of the Tree of Life shining through the gate of Eden, and thirsted for the Living Water which only He can give. Glory to His Wonderful Name. Blessed be the Lord God Adonai.
• In the Garden He caused to grow every tree pleasant to the sight and good for food. In the midst He planted the Tree of Life, together with the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. V 16, The Lord commanded Adam to eat freely of every tree of the garden, BUT… in the day that he ate of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, he would surely die, because sin and death consciousness would enter into his soul. Since Adam fell, this sin and death consciousness has entered the soul of every human being. Sadly, sin consciousness permeates the Christian church, where it is spoken to those who have been saved and whose sins have been nailed to the cross of Jesus. It was actually a commandment to eat freely of Life and a forbidding to eat of death! But they broke the commandment and of course it was easy then to be beguiled. Let me sound a warning on this principle. If you break His commandments it becomes a lot easier to justify following the flesh with its desires. Hold o to His commandments and the flesh will not gain victory over you.
• In The Garden He placed a river to water it. The river parted and went into four heads. It is important to understand that the Hebrew word “heads” here literally means “chief place, chief man, company, highest, excellence, ruler”.
THE RIVERS
The River and its Four Heads are a shadow of things that would come. A spiritual shadow is caused by the Light of God shining on a later Spiritual truth which casts a shadow being the earlier actual event. So what did these mean in Eden?
The River is Jesus. The four heads are His Elect who come out of Him as a High Company, whose ministry is to be His prophets revealing the Word of Life and sustaining those who eat of it. He gives His own Life to His Company who is able to impart His Word of Life to those who will partake. “Four” in scripture is the number of the earthly, and this company are in the earth and minister to the earth.
The Bible describes these tributaries of Jesus revealing the natures and ministries of the Sons of God:
1. The river “Pison”, meaning “free flowing”. Nothing will stop this company. They have complete power to act unhindered by obstacles of life or the enemy. They move in the victory of Jesus to bring the water of the Word from Jesus Himself. All who receive their Word will receive from Jesus. They have the power to sustain Life by the Glory of God in them. In Genesis 2:11, this river compassed the whole land of Havilah.
2. The river “Gihon”, meaning “gentleness”. This is the place in Jerusalem where Solomon was anointed king. Solomon is the type of the Sons of God in the Kingdom Day of Jesus who will rule and reign on the earth. This will be a day of peace as in Solomon’s day. And they will gently lead to the fullness of Jesus all who receive their Word. The Sons have the Solomon anointing. This river compassed the land of Ethiopia, which was a name given to the land of Cush who was a grandson of Noah. These tribes dispersed and represent in type the unsaved. The ministry of the Sons of God will compass the lost in the Kingdom Day, with the gentle anointing of God to bring them to peace and Life.
3. The river “Hiddekel”, meaning “rapid and lively”. This denotes action. The Lord will move swiftly through His anointed. The nature of His Sons will be to act with confidence. There will be no debating. This river flows swiftly and with the Word of Life which will capture the hearts of those who will receive. This river goes to the east of Assyria. Many things happened there but it is originally where Nimrod rebelled and founded Babylon, the type of “religious confusion”. At the start of the Kingdom Day in Jesus, His church will be in a state of religious confusion. It is His plan to deliver them from Babylon and with a rapid and Living Word, bring them to Spiritual Jerusalem and the Feast of His Glory. This ministry is given to His Sons who shall move rapidly and with a Living Word to deliver His church.
4. The river of “Euphrates”, meaning “bursting, sweet” . This describes a combination of strength and sweetness. The Word of Life and the nature of His Sons will have strength yet will have that sweetness of taste. The Sons of God on the Kingdom day will burst forth with the Glorious Word of Life bringing sweetness to those who receive. 2 Corinthians 2:15 says that His people are a sweet savor of Jesus to two types: them that are saved and them that perish. To one a savor of Life unto Life. The other a savor of death unto death. Understand that rejection of the word will lead to death.
I want to encourage all who have read this message. My heart is to lead you to the Living Waters. No matter who you are, or your circumstances, I ask you to seek The Lord for understanding. Prophets are not usually popular because they challenge the comfort zones. But Jesus calls you today. The Holy Spirit draws all to Jesus who will seek Him.
The current church day is drawing to a close. We are seeing a lost world dominated by greed, wars, catastrophes, a compromising religious system, the emergence of false religions and idolatry, the pride of man, dominant political order and the lack of respect.
This generation is about to see the birthing of a new order on this earth in the Kingdom of Jesus Christ coming to this earth. His church has been preaching the Gospel on earth for two thousand years, but we are going to see His Glory and Majesty come to this earth which He created, as His Kingdom Priests minister and reveal Him in His rightful position as King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
For one thousand years peace will reign and all darkness will be bound.
Some reading this will die before this happens, some will see it come to pass. If you have never accepted Jesus Christ as your Saviour, I plead with you now. He died for you to pay the price for the sin of mankind. He died that all may be reconciled back to fellowship with Himself. He loves you and calls you. It is so simple to become born-again. Acknowledge to Jesus that you need Him. Confess that He is the Son of God and that He died on the cross for you, and that He arose from the dead. In simple words invite Him to come into your heart, and by the Spirit of God you will be born again. This is His promise. His Holy Spirit will then lead you to walk in newness of life. You will become a child of God. Bless you.
To the Sons of God, I encourage you to stand firm. The Day of the Lord is at hand. All that you have believed and stood for will come to pass. All that you have withstood will seem a small price for the Glory which shall be revealed. The Lord bless you Out of Zion.
ALL GLORY TO JESUS
