REVELATION ON JESUS AS ALPHA AND OMEGA
Let’s do a quick recap from last week message on Jesus the Alpha and Omega. Alpha is the first Greek letter of the Alphabet. It is the beginning of all things. Alpha is like a tunnel and there is light at the end of the tunnel.
Omega is rock solid and durable.
Let’s quickly consider why Jesus is the Alpha.
Revelation 1:8 – Jesus said to John the beloved: “I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending …”
Revelation comes from relationship with the Father and not just from dreams.
I am Alpha! What is the meaning of this? There is only one Alpha and it is indisputable. The only beginning. This is unquestionable.
Genesis 1:1-3 – “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form and void: and darkness was upon the face of the deep…”
The messages of the old testament is based on the prophets because they were seers who sees the heart of God for nations and the people and bring judgement down to the people. What the Old Testament prophets said were authentic and this was also validated by the Lord Jesus who kept referring to them. Moses was an Old Testament prophet who was able to write five books solidly based on God’s revelation. Genesis chapters’ one, two & three form the basis of information, illustration and revelation to humanity.
In Genesis chapter 1, Prophet Moses, the servant of God wrote that God created the Heavens and the Earth in the beginning. The creative God is Elohim different from the functioning Jesus – Adonai. The activation of God’s power and glory is Adonai.
There are three personalities yet one God. They come under Elohim – the plurality of Godhead. No nation can know Yahweh more than the nation Israel as God is a foreign entity to gentiles but if we stick close to Jesus we know more of God. Elders
in Israel till date are still diligently studying the Torah. Israel is God’s wisdom for the world. In America today, the nucleus of those involved in the space world and Aeronautics are the Jews who are the harbinger of wisdom and knowledge.
The Hebrew world for beginning is called Bereshit. Hebrew words have the deepest meaning in global history. Created composes of two words: Bara and Ayeta. This simply means God put things together and made them to stand. That is while David said in Ps 93:1 that God establishes the world. Satan is a dummy devil, who has no clue.
God is Elohim. There is no beginning with God but there is a beginning for humanity and all creatures. John 1:8 – Jesus was and is our beginning. Jesus will always be in our beginning.
Begin to say these words in your place of work – Bereshit, Ayeta, Elohim.
This nullifies the dummy theory of Darwin regarding evolution of matter. Matter is contained by the power of God. It is a great thing to know our God. In the beginning was creation; creation of time and nature. Originally there was no time and nature in heaven.
Paul the apostle talks about revelation of 3 heavens , heaven where God the father, Son and Holy Spirit lives, the second heaven where satan is and the third heaven is the earth where we are and been commanded to subdue and dominate. Have you ever asked God about the 24 elders praising him continually in heaven? This is revelation and God does not limit us, He is the repository of wisdom and revelation and we can tap into it.
Our beginning talks about time but God lives in a timeless environment. No time in heaven. What is the functionality of time and what does time stands for? Time denotes day and night. Time is for record purpose. Time is period between two events. Time is precious.
Why is there no time in heaven? Because there is no limit of records of event heaven can accommodate. Heaven is not in a rush or hurry. Why do we always tell people that they must be born-again now? There is an appointed time for salvation. We must understand the ways of God. God does not watch over time in Heaven. There is no vacuum with God.
Bereshit – the beginning talks about being first. When Jesus said I am the first and I am Alpha. He is saying I am the first in all things beginning in place, time and rank. This is the meaning of Bereshit. Every believer is an alpha. We are always in place as far as God’s plan and programme is concerned. That is why God says He will tell Abraham about His plans. No believer should ever be depressed as we go through seasons and our seasons are good as they are in God’s control.
Bereshit explains beginning of time, order and rank. Make sure you are born-again to have record with God. The bible says we are living stones and apple of God’s eyes. God revealed to Peter that we are the house God lives in now. If we need favour, He who is in me will have access to it. I know my calling! God has used me to raise ministers and pastors even though our number in this church may not be great.
Sometime ago, God told me, I am now in my final stages of my ministry. God Has now called me to bless people. Monday was my birthday and no one was at home. Mama was at Cambridge and children away. God told me to spend the day with Him. Say to your neighbour, don’t be ordinary, the best is inside of you, let it bless people. Everyone could see from the recent prayer meetings organised by Pastor Salami that gifts came out and manifested and people were blessed. We will continue in that direction as this is what God wants us to do.
Let us quickly do a recap again. Bereshit means first in place, time order and rank. Bereshit also talked about first fruit. The first fruit of Salvation is Jesus Christ. Israel is the first fruit of Yahweh. The church is the first fruit of Jesus. Jesus is with His church and God is over all. The beginning means the best and the best thing God did for mankind is creating us in His own image. He showed mankind His Love. Let’s begin to ask God why I am here. What is God’s will and purpose for me. We need to acknowledge and discover God’s pathway to make meaningful progress in life.
Bereshit also means the principal thing. We are the most unique being; unique creature of God. We are just like God. Let us see the beauty of God’s work. In our beginning of business, let it be God and not fraud. Those who go into politics to destroy things have no beginning. This is why it is difficult for believers to be in politics. You cannot steal God’s money in church and prosper and say God has to understand. God is not in the beginning of fraudsters. Brothers and Sisters, this should change our orientation. There is better things and direction in God’s word.
In Genesis 1:1-2, in the beginning God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit created heaven and earth and this was without form and void and darkness was …
What is the meaning of this?
Responses from brethren:
- Earth was meaningless, no life, no light.
- Emptiness and the earth was with no pattern
Creation was in stages. It was first God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit who brought what was in the spirit realm into existence. Anything we do without God is void and empty. Anyone without God is empty.
In January, I want to have three solid weeks with the youths. When some of these youths got to the university, things changed in their life in the negative direction. I am very sad, bad reports of people in this church partying and not ready for God. We are in for something good in 2012.
Creation was spoken by the trinity into existence. Creation is in stages. God is God of order. That is why Paul the Apostle told the Corinthian church that let things be done decently and in order. Was it difficult for God to create all things at once? No! But God has a purpose for everything. Don’t put together plans without first consulting God. Everything in Genesis teaches us the way Trinity operates, no disunity. Theologians of today cannot misdirect us on the import of Genesis 1:2. Nobody wants to read Job 17. I have an assignment for everyone in this church to read the bible and finish it in 2012 and the Resident Pastor should coordinate this. This can be done by reading three chapters a day, a book of proverbs per day. If you don’t read proverbs, how can you be wise. Minimum of two chapters of psalm to praise God.
Genesis 1:3 – Let there be light …
Everything is in stages. The second stage is the appearance of the Spirit of God. The Holy Spirit functions to activate things in our life. “And the Spirit of God began to move round… When people are empty of ideas, the enemy takes over.
The third stage: Without other creatures, life will not be complete. God said let there be light and there was light. The trinity began their work together. God the Son who is the light came into the frame or picture to fix things together. Anything the enemies have done wrong in your life God will fix it in Jesus name. Amen. This will be the beginning of a new chapter in your life in Jesus name. Amen.
I commend your love in this place. Keep it up.
