Call To The Altar Of Worship

Pastor Precious Gabriel

Song Of Solomon 1:4

_Draw Me, We Will Run After Thee: The King Hath Brought Me Into His Chambers: We Will Be Glad And Rejoice In Thee, We Will Remember Thy Love More Than Wine: The Upright Love Thee._

*Prayer*

_Lord Enable Our Heart To Run After You. As He Is Drawing Us That We May Have The Strength To Run After Him._

Man Has Journeyed Much More Far From God, So Coming Back To God Has To Do With You Being Able To Run After Him.

For A While Now We Have Been Looking At From The Altar To The Throne. We Have Been Dwelling On The Articles Of The Holy Place And By Understanding The Lord Has Brought Us To The Place Of The Altar.

If Your Read Hebrews 8 And 9 You Will Understand Why Sometimes We Make Reference To The Tabernacle That God Told Moses To Build.

*Hebrews 8:2*

_A Minister Of The Sanctuary, And Of The True Tabernacle, Which The Lord Pitched, And Not Man._  

There Is A Tabernacle That Man Pitched And A Tabernacle That God Pitched. The Tabernacle That Man Pitched Is That Of Moses, There Is A Tabernacle In The Spirit. The Picture That God Made Moses To See When He Told Him To Build According To The Pattern He Has Showed Him. He Brought Moses To The Mountain And Showed Him A Picture Of The Tabernacle On The Mountain, He Told Him To Replicate It On Earth. We Are Not Just Trying To Draw Something That Doesn’t Exist From The Spirit.

*Hebrews 9:24*

_For Christ Is Not Entered Into The Holy Places Made With Hands, [which Are] The Figures Of The True; But Into Heaven Itself, Now To Appear In The Presence Of God For Us:_  

The Holy Place Is In The Tabernacle Of Moses.

The Tabernacle Of Moses Is Called The Figure Of The True, You Should Be Asking What This Represents There Is A True Tabernacle But The Tabernacle We Can See Is A Figure Of The True Tabernacle.

They Likened Heaven To A Tabernacle. That Is Why Sometimes Reference Is Made To The First, Second Heaven And Third Heaven. When You Are Entering The Tabernacle The Journey Is Forward But If You Look At It From The Aspect Of Heaven You Are Going Upward. The Same Journey That Is Upward Is The Same Journey That Is Forward. They Are Trying To Teach Us How To Move In A Physical Tabernacle And At The Same Time They Are Trying To Describe An Upward Journey. Each Time Someone Makes A Reference To Outer Court Or Most Holy Place, You Should Ask, In The Spirit What Does It Mean?

We Can Say That The Physical Tabernacle Of Moses Typifies The Layers Of Heaven That Is Existing Now For The Sake Of Redemption.

When Christ Resurrected He Went To Heaven With His Blood, The Book Of Hebrews Make Us Know That The Same Way A High Priest Will Go Into The Tabernacle Of Moses With Blood Jesus Went Into The Heavens With His Blood. He Passed Through The Heavens, He Journeyed. The Same Way He Passed Through Is The Same Way We Are Passing Through. It Is Very Important That These Things Are Clear Because They Help Our Journey A Lot.

The Golden Altar Of Incense Is One Of The Articles In The Holy Place. We Have Three Articles In The Holy Place; In All We Have About Six Articles Starting From The Outer Court. Often Times The Outer Court Is Not Mentioned.

*Revelation 11:1-2*

_And There Was Given Me A Reed Like Unto A Rod: And The Angel Stood, Saying, Rise, And Measure The Temple Of God, And The Altar, And Them That Worship Therein.  But The Court Which Is Without The Temple Leave Out, And Measure It Not; For It Is Given Unto The Gentiles: And The Holy City Shall They Tread Under Foot Forty [and] Two Months._  

Even Though The Journey Of A Believer Begins At The Outer Court, He Is Not To Remain At The Outer Court; He Is Supposed To Enter The Holy Place Because That’s Where The Work Begins.

In The Tabernacle Of Moses There Is A Court That Was Made; It’s Like Having An Open Space And Fencing The Open Space And Then Inside The Open Space There Is A Building. So When People Come To The Outer Court, They Don’t Enter The Building Yet. The Building Itself Is What Is Called The Sanctuary. The Sanctuary Is Made Up Of Holy Place And The Most Holy Place. Often Times In The New Testament They Don’t Make Much Reference To The Outer Court. 

The Business Is In The Holy Place That Is Where They Sit Over Us As Refiner Fire With The Aim Of Bringing Us Into Where God Is.

At The Outer Court We Have Two Articles; We Have The Brazen Altar Where Burnt Offerings And Offering By Fire Are Offered To God. It Is Symbolic Of When A Believer Comes To Christ As The Lamb Of God, The Lamb That Was Slain. This Is What Happens At New Birth.

The Next Article Is Brasen Laver, Made Of Brass. But The Things In The Holy Place Are Made Of Gold. Brass Is Symbolic Of Judgement, Judging Sin. The First Place Is Symbolic Of Our New Birth Experience; The Laver Is Symbolic Of Baptisms. We Have Baptism Of Water, Baptism Of Holy Spirit And Baptism Into The Body. A Believer Must Go Through The Three. The Brasen Laver Is Symbolic Of The Baptisms A Believer Is Supposed To Go Through. 

After That They Are To Move Into The Holy Place. In The Holy Place There Are Three Articles The Priests Are To Fellowship With; The Table Of Shew Bread, Golden Lampstand And Golden Altar Of Incense. In The Outer Court, There Is The Light Of The Sun But In The Holy Place The Place Is Dark The Only Thing That Lightens It Up Is The Candle Stick. God Gave Them An Ordinance That The Light Must Never Go Off And From Time To Time They Have To Pour Oil So That It Will Never Go Off.

*John 4:24*

_God [is] A Spirit: And They That Worship Him Must Worship [him] In Spirit And In Truth._

Reference Was Made To Worship, Spirit And Truth. The Table Of Bread Is Symbolic Of Truth, Symbolic Of The Bread (John 6:48). On The Table They Place Twelve Loaves Of Bread. There Is Another Bread In The Most Holy Place, A Priest Is Supposed To Eat The Two *(Leviticus 21:22)*. He Cannot Eat That In The Most Holy If He Has Not Eaten The Bread In The Holy Place Placed On The Table Of Shew Bread.

*You Cannot Come To A Place Of Worship Until You Have Known Spirit And Truth*.

The Golden Candle Stick Is Symbolic Of Your Interaction With The Holy Ghost And The Seven Spirits.

*Isaiah 11:1-3*

_And There Shall Come Forth A Rod Out Of The Stem Of Jesse, And A Branch Shall Grow Out Of His Roots:  And The *spirit Of The LORD* Shall Rest Upon Him, The *spirit Of Wisdom And Understanding*, The *spirit Of Counsel And Might*, The *spirit Of Knowledge And Of The Fear Of The LORD*;  And Shall Make Him Of Quick Understanding In The Fear Of The LORD: And He Shall Not Judge After The Sight Of His Eyes, Neither Reprove After The Hearing Of His Ears:_

*Revelation 1:4*

_John To The Seven Churches Which Are In Asia: Grace [be] Unto You, And Peace, From Him Which Is, And Which Was, And Which Is To Come; And From The Seven Spirits Which Are Before His Throne;_  

*Revelation 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._  

*Revelation 5:6*

_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 Had Been Slain, Having Seven Horns And Seven Eyes, Which Are The Seven Spirits Of God Sent Forth Into All The Earth._  

*Zechariah 4:2*

_And Said Unto Me, What Seest Thou? And I Said, I Have Looked, And Behold A Candlestick All [of] Gold, With A Bowl Upon The Top Of It, And His Seven Lamps Thereon, And Seven Pipes To The Seven Lamps, Which [are] Upon The Top Thereof:_  

They Also Spread Through The Scriptures, But Their Work Is Hidden. 

Seven Spirits Is Not Just A Man’s Imagination. It Is Not The Same As Holy Spirit Even Though You Can’t Access The Seven Spirits Without The Holy Ghost. The Holy Ghost Is The Oil That Powers The Candle Stick. 

*Ephesians 1:15-18*

_Wherefore I Also, After I Heard Of Your Faith In The Lord Jesus, And Love Unto All The Saints,  Cease Not To Give Thanks For You, Making Mention Of You In My Prayers;  That The God Of Our Lord Jesus Christ, The Father Of Glory, May Give Unto You The *spirit Of Wisdom And Revelation In The Knowledge Of Him*:  The Eyes Of Your Understanding Being Enlightened; That Ye May Know What Is The Hope Of His Calling, And What The Riches Of The Glory Of His Inheritance In The Saints,_  

*Colossians 1:9-11*

_For This Cause We Also, Since The Day We Heard [it], Do Not Cease To Pray For You, And To Desire That Ye Might Be Filled With The *knowledge Of His Will In All Wisdom And Spiritual Understanding*;  That Ye Might Walk Worthy Of The Lord Unto All Pleasing, Being Fruitful In Every Good Work, And Increasing In The Knowledge Of God;  Strengthened With All *might*, According To His Glorious Power, Unto All Patience And Longsuffering With Joyfulness;_  

*Ephesians 3:16*

_That He Would Grant You, According To The Riches Of His Glory, To Be Strengthened With *might By His Spirit* In The Inner Man;_

Menorah Also Means Seven Spirits, It’s The Hebrew Word For Lampstand. When A Believer Is Filled With The Holy Ghost And You Seem To Be Doing Well, Then The Holy Ghost Knows You Are Ready For The Ministry Of The Seven Spirits, They Reveal Only One Thing, Christ. It Is Possible That The Ministry Of The Seven Spirits Is Active In Your Life But You Are Not Aware.

It’s A Reality In The Spirit. Without The Golden Candle Stick Shinning In The Holy Place Nobody Can Access The Bread. If You Cannot See How Do You Interact With This Table? Our Interaction With These Two (golden Candle Stick And Shew Bread) Is Feeding On Christ, Knowing Who Christ Is.

We Need To Understand How He Arrived At The Cross, The Need For The Cross And What Happened After The Cross.

*Ephesians 4:10*

_He That Descended Is The Same Also That Ascended Up Far Above All Heavens, That He Might Fill All Things.)_  

*Psalm 16:10*

_For Thou Wilt Not Leave My Soul In Hell; Neither Wilt Thou Suffer Thine Holy One To See Corruption._  

Christ Actually Went To Hell And It Took The Glory Of God To Bring Him Out.

*Romans 8:11*

_But If The *Spirit Of Him* That Raised Up Jesus From The Dead Dwell In You, He That Raised Up Christ From The Dead Shall Also Quicken Your Mortal Bodies By His Spirit That Dwelleth In You._  

Jesus Went So Low Because Hell Is Beneath. He Descended So Low And God Also Raised Him, He Ascended So High, Higher Than The Heavens.

We Need The Seven Spirits To Understand Who Christ Is. The Ministry Of The Seven Spirits Can Be Activated In The Life Of A Believer. Anywhere You See Christ Unveiled, The Menorah Is Active In That Place.

*Revelation Chapter 2 And 3 The Churches There Are Menorah Churches. Any Church That Is A Menorah Church, You Will See The Lord Walking In Their Midst.

A Gathering Of God’s People Can Only Be A Body Of Christ If They Are Connected To The Head. If Nothing Is Flowing Form The Head (Christ) Down, Then You Are Not A Body Of Christ.

Before A Believer Can Enter The Holy Place And Experience The Things Of The Holy Place He Must Be Baptised Into The Body.

From The Parable Of The Foolish Virgin And The Wise Virgin I Was Able To See That The Category Of The Foolish Virgin They Only Had Lamp, But The Category Of The Wise Virgins They Had Lamp, Vessel And Oil. *(Matt 25:1-4)*

  *Interpretation Of Tongues*

_Thank You Jesus. You Are The Fountain Of Life In Thy Light That We See Light. You Are The Fountain Of Life; It Is In Thy Light That We See Light. You Are The Fountain Of Life, It Is In Your Light That We See Light I Hear In My Spirit I Bring You Light, I Bring You Light Even To Lighten Your Heart. I Bring You Light In This Time Of Darkness Even In The Times Of Night, Even In The Times When Judgements Are Been Perverted. I Bring You Light To Walk, I Bring You Light To Walk Circumspectly, I Bring You Light For You To Walk As You Ought To Walk, I Bring You Light That You May See And That You May Walk, For No One Walk If He Has Not Seen Therefore I Am Bringing You Light That You May See That You May Walk By The Things You Are Seeing. I Am Bringing You Judgement Says The Spirit That You May Judge Between That Which Is Profane And That Which Is Holy, I Bring You Judgement To Discern Between Good And Evil, Therefore Take Heed To The Speaking Because These Things Are Things That Makes For Even The Garnishing Even The Beautification Of Your Heart Even Of Your Heart That My Word May Fully Dwell Even There In Says The Lord._

*Message Continues*

It Is Not Enough To Just Be A Virgin It Is Important That Wisdom Is In Place. Folly Is Not Just A State Of Ignorance, It’s That You Know Something But What You Know Is Not The True Knowledge.

Why Would The Lord Say To The Foolish Virgins I Don’t Know You? *(Matthew 25: 12)*.

The Remnants Of Our Seed Are Not In The Same Category Of The Foolish Virgin.

Foolish Virgins Are A Special Category Of Believer That At The End Of The Day May Be Rejected Of The Lord. 

Foolish Virgins Are Workers Of Iniquity *(Luke 13:27*. All They Believe In Is That Man Is A Spirit; They Never Made An Attempt For Their Souls To Be Changed. They Believe That The Spirit Is Perfect Which Is True.

*1 John 3:9*

_Whosoever Is Born Of God Doth Not Commit Sin; For His Seed Remaineth In Him: And He Cannot Sin, Because He Is Born Of God._  

*Job 32:8*

_But [there Is] A *spirit In Man*: And The Inspiration Of The Almighty Giveth Them Understanding._

*2 Timothy 2:20-21*

_But In A Great House There Are Not Only Vessels Of Gold And Of Silver, But Also Of Wood And Of Earth; And Some To Honour, And Some To Dishonour.  If A Man Therefore Purge Himself From These, He Shall Be A Vessel Unto Honour, Sanctified, And Meet For The Master's Use, [and] Prepared Unto Every Good Work._  

The Vessel That The Wise Virgins Had Is What Was Referred To As Man. The Soul Of Man Is Central To All That God Is Doing. When We Became Born Again, Our Souls Did Not Change; Our Soul Is The Same.

*Ephesians 5:26-27*

_That He Might Sanctify And Cleanse It With The Washing Of Water By The Word,  That He Might Present It To Himself A Glorious Church, Not Having Spot, Or Wrinkle, Or Any Such Thing; But That It Should Be Holy And Without Blemish._

This Is The Soul.

*Revelation 6:9*

_And When He Had Opened The Fifth Seal, I Saw *under The Altar The Souls* Of Them That Were Slain For The Word Of God, And For The Testimony Which They Held:_  

Everybody Is To Have A Lamp Which Is Symbolic Of The Spirit; You Are To Have A Vessel And To Have Oil In That Vessel.

*John 4:23-24*

_But The Hour Cometh, And Now Is, When The True Worshippers Shall Worship The Father In Spirit And In Truth: For The Father Seeketh Such To Worship Him.  God [is] A Spirit: And They That Worship Him Must Worship [him] In Spirit And In Truth._  

That Place Of The Altar Is A Place Of Worship. Nobody Can Arrive At The Altar Without First Knowing Spirit And Truth. It Is Somebody At The Altar That Can Be Journeying To The Throne. We Must Come To That Place Because The Time Is Short.

*Exodus 30:6*

_And Thou Shalt Put It Before The Vail That [is] By The Ark Of The Testimony, Before The Mercy Seat That [is] Over The Testimony, Where I Will Meet With Thee._

It’s At The Place Of The Altar The Lord Will Meet With Us.

*Psalm 99:5*

_Exalt Ye The LORD Our God, And Worship At His Footstool; [for] He [is] Holy.  

*Psalm 132:7*

_We Will Go Into His Tabernacles: We Will Worship At His Footstool._  

The Place Of The Altar Is The Place Of The Feet, The Place Of The Footstool. The Altar Is Symbolic Of Worship. There Can’t Be Worship Without A Man Knowing The Place Of The Footstool.

*Worship Means To Honour With Extravagant Love And Extreme Submission*. Worship Is Not Singing; You Can Be Singing And You May Not Be Worshipping. Worship Is A Life That Has Been Found On The Altar; A Life That Has Come To A Place Of Loving The Lord Extravagantly. It Is Someone That Has Come To A Place Of Extreme Submission. Worship Is Coming To A Place Where Everything About You Is Laid On The Altar.

This Worship Is The Altar Life And Not About Singing Here. It Is Beyond That.

*Luke 7:37-38*

_And, Behold, A Woman In The City, Which Was A Sinner, When She Knew That [Jesus] Sat At Meat In The Pharisee's House, Brought An Alabaster Box Of Ointment,  And Stood At His Feet Behind [him] Weeping, And Began To Wash His Feet With Tears, And Did Wipe [them] With The Hairs Of Her Head, And Kissed His Feet, And Anointed [them] With The Ointment._  

People Scolded Her Because They Felt She Wasted The Ointment But Jesus Made A Comment That;

*Luke 7:44*

_And He Turned To The Woman, And Said Unto Simon, Seest Thou This Woman? I Entered Into Thine House, Thou Gavest Me No Water For My Feet: But She Hath Washed My Feet With Tears, And Wiped [them] With The Hairs Of Her Head._  

Feet’s Washing Was A Common Culture Among Them. The Feet Are Always Dusty And When A Person Comes On A Visit The First Thing You Do Is Remove The Shoes And Wash The Person’s Feet.

The Feet That The Woman Was Washing Was Actually Dusty.

*Mark 14:3-9*

_And Being In Bethany In The House Of Simon The Leper, As He Sat At Meat, There Came A Woman Having An *alabaster Box Of Ointment Of Spikenard Very Precious*; And She Brake The Box, And Poured [it] On His Head.  And There Were Some That Had Indignation Within Themselves, And Said, Why Was This Waste Of The Ointment Made?  For It Might Have Been Sold For More Than Three Hundred Pence, And Have Been Given To The Poor. And They Murmured Against Her.  And Jesus Said, Let Her Alone; Why Trouble Ye Her? She Hath Wrought A Good Work On Me.  For Ye Have The Poor With You Always, And Whensoever Ye Will Ye May Do Them Good: But Me Ye Have Not Always.  She Hath Done What She Could: She Is Come Aforehand To Anoint My Body To The Burying.  Verily I Say Unto You, Wheresoever This Gospel Shall Be Preached Throughout The Whole World, [this] Also That She Hath Done Shall Be Spoken Of For A Memorial Of Her._  

The First Expression About The Ointment Is That It Was Very Precious; To Be Precious Means To Be Costly. 

A Person That Has Come To The Place Of The Altar Is One Like This Woman That Can Stand At His Feet Whose Heart Is Broken. Before Someone Can Stand At Someone’s Feet Weeping, It Means The Heart Is Broken. 

The Lord Is Directing Our Attention To A Place Where One Is Willing To Yield His All; All Of You, *altar Is A Place That Requires All Of Man*.

*1 Samuel 25:40-41*

_And When The Servants Of David Were Come To Abigail To Carmel, They Spake Unto Her, Saying, David Sent Us Unto Thee, To Take Thee To Him To Wife.  And She Arose, And Bowed Herself On [her] Face To The Earth, And Said, Behold, [let] Thine Handmaid [be] A Servant To Wash The Feet Of The Servants Of My Lord._

What Came To My Mind From The Scripture Is Servant Of Servants.

It Is Servants That Wash Feet As Part Of Their Culture. Abigail Was Making A Request In This Place To Function As A Servant To Wash Their Feet.

 Mary Loved The Lord Passionately With Everything Within Her.

Those Who Are At The Altar Are Those In The Category Of This Woman. Those Who Can Afford To Take On The Form Of A Servant.

*Philippians 2:5-8*

_Let This Mind Be In You, Which Was Also In Christ Jesus:  Who, Being In The Form Of God, Thought It Not Robbery To Be Equal With God:  But Made Himself Of No Reputation, And Took Upon Him The Form Of A Servant, And Was Made In The Likeness Of Men:  And Being Found In Fashion As A Man, He Humbled Himself, And Became Obedient Unto Death, Even The Death Of The Cross._  

*Ephesians 3:8*

_Unto Me, Who Am *less Than The Least Of All Saints*, Is This Grace Given, That I Should Preach Among The Gentiles The Unsearchable Riches Of Christ;_  

These Are The Kind Of People Found On The Altar; People That Can Cast Themselves On Him In Their Entirety, People That Can Give Him Their All And Love Him With Their Whole Heart, People That Will Swear To Their Own Hurt And Will Not Turn Back *(Psalm 15:4)*.

It’s A Call Of The Lord Calling Us To A Place Where We Can Cast The Whole Of Ourselves On Him; These Are The People Found On The Altar.

All These Stories In The Scripture Are Symbolic Of The Bride Of Christ. Ruth Was Willing To Give Her All. One Of The Things That The Lord Warned Them Against Is That They Should Not Marry A Moabite; But There Are Women In The Scriptures Because Of The Love In Their Heart, Protocols Shifted; People Like Rahab And Ruth. They Were Not Just Given Inheritance In Israel They Were Given An Inheritance In The Lineage Of Christ. Heaven Recognise The Heart.

*Psalm 45:10-11*

_*Hearken*, O Daughter, And *consider*, And *incline* Thine Ear; *forget* Also Thine Own People, And Thy Father's House;  So Shall The King Greatly Desire Thy Beauty: For He [is] Thy Lord; And Worship Thou Him._  

This Woman (daughter) Is Symbolic Of The Church.

These Places Show Us Protocols Of Coming To The Place Of Worship, Where Everything In The Heart Can Be Poured Upon The Altar.

Hearken Means To Hear, Consider Means To See. Incline Means To Turn.

Hear, Turn, See And Forget, Then You Will Come To The Place Where The King Can Greatly Desire Your Beauty. 

Nobody Can Arrive At The Altar Of Worship Without Adequate Interaction With Those Two First Articles In The Holy Place. The Place Of Hearing, Seeing And Turning Is Linked To A Believer’s Interaction With Those First Two Articles.

There Has To Be Hearing And Seeing (understanding). There Cannot Be Hearing If The Heart Does Not Love To Hear. There Has To Be A Love For Truth In The Heart.

The Heart Must Desire To Hear And Hear And To Come To A Place Of Understanding

Just Hearing Alone Without Gaining Understanding Cannot Bring A Soul To The Place Of The Altar.

Eyes Cannot See There Cannot Be Understanding For A Believer Outside The Spirit Of Wisdom And Revelation In The Knowledge Of Him; This Speaks Of The Seven Spirits.

There Has To Be Hearing Of Truth And Understanding Of What Is Being Heard.

*1 John 1:1*

_That Which Was From The Beginning, Which We Have Heard, Which We Have Seen With Our Eyes, Which We Have Looked Upon, And Our Hands Have Handled, Of The Word Of Life;_  

There Has To Be Hearing, Seeing And Turning (inclining). It Is Not Enough That I Hear And Come To A Place Of Understanding And There Are No Actions To Justify What I Have Heard And What I Am Seeing.

*John 14:15*

_If Ye Love Me, Keep My Commandments._  

Loving The Lord Is Not Just A Heart Condition

We Must Pray That The Lord Make Us A Doer Of His Pleasure. It Takes Strength To Do His Will; It’s So Easy To Live In The Flesh, But Strength Is Needed For Divine Nature. 

The Golden Altar Which Is The Place Of Appointment With God Is Where The Lord Will Come To Pick The Five Wise Virgins And We All Must Be Found At That Place.

For Someone To Be Found At The Place Of The Altar He Must Have Gone Through Hearing.

Truth Is In Christ. Nobody Can Access Truth Outside The Doctrine Of Christ.

Don’t Go For Less, Hear Speaking Of Light, If The Lord Brings The Opportunity To You, Don’t Walk Away. It Is True That Light Is Demanding; Light Will Reprove Work Of Darkness But The Light Coming To You Is Mercy. The Time Is Short, Heaven Is Doing All It Can Do To Bring Light To A People At This Time, To Cause Them To Hear, See Turn And Bring Them To A Place Where They Can Forget.

Hearken, Consider, Incline And Forget Your Own People.

Actually Man Was Never Made To Have A Life Of His Own Until When Man Turned From God And Started Knowing Another Kind Of Life Which We Were Born Into. There Is A Life We Have Known As Our Life That Was Not Actually Our Life From The Beginning And For God To Say Lay That Life Down And Take My Life Is Like Killing That Man.

We Must Be Willing To Yield To The Lord Completely. Every Demand Of God That Will Come To Us Will Be Demanding The Things That Are Our Own.

*1 Corinthians 2:11*

_For What Man Knoweth The Things Of A Man, Save The Spirit Of Man Which Is In Him? Even So The Things Of God Knoweth No Man, But The Spirit Of God._  

Man Has His Own Things; Our Wisdom, Intellect, Experiences. We Have Things We Have Built Up And Laid Up As Things We Can Fall On. *Coming To That Place Of Altar Means Coming To The Place Of Letting Go Of All You Have Acquired*, Breaking The Box Of Alabaster And Pouring It All On Him. The Place Of Altar Is A Place Of All. Before You Can Come To The Altar It Means They Have Won Your Heart. The Instrument Of Offering On That Altar Is You That Have Come. That Is The Place Where They Do The Final Work And Where They Beat Out Everything That Is Of Man. The Place Of The Altar Means Humanity Being Covered With Divinity; Wood (man) Being Covered With Gold (divine Nature). God Is Requesting From Us Our Own Things For His Own Things. 

We Want The King To Desire Our Beauty Then We Must Be Willing To Forget Our Own Things, Our Father’s House And The Things We Have Inherited Of This Life. We Must Be Able To Say Like Paul Said When Christ Who Is Our Life Shall Appear *(Colossians 3:4)*, You Don’t Know Any Other Life But His. You Can Trust Him Like Abraham Trusted Him After Waiting On Him For Many Years For A Son And God Told Him To Take That Son And Offer Him As A Burnt Offering And He Could Rise Up Early The Next Day And Took Isaac With Him (Genesis 22:2-3)*. 

*Genesis 22:12*

_And He Said, Lay Not Thine Hand Upon The Lad, Neither Do Thou Any Thing Unto Him: For Now I Know That Thou Fearest God, Seeing Thou Hast Not Withheld Thy Son, Thine Only [son] From Me._  

That Is The Place Of Forsaking And Forgetting. When The Blessings God Has Given To Us We Have Them But We Do Not Possess Them.

They Want A Soul That Has Come To The Place Of ‘its Only You That Matter In This Life’. Where None Of The Blessings Of God Can Come Between You And The Lord. We Have A Generation Of Men That Are Seeking For The Hand Of God And Don’t Want His Face.

The Lord Is Calling Us To A Place Of All, A Place Of Yielding, And A Place Where We Forget Our Pride.

Jesus Came To A Place Of No Reputation; Parts Of The Things That Are Things We Have Inherited Are Reputations, The Things Man Seek. We Must Be Willing To Come To A Place Where All That The Lord Is Demanding From Us We Are Willing To Lay Down, We Cast Our All On Him, We Put On The Form Of A Servant.

All We Have Heard Is A Call To The Altar Of Worship, A Call To Follow Him With No Reservations, A Call To Love The Lord With All Of Our Mind, Heart And Strength. *When He Comes Will You Be Found At The Place Of The Altar?*
