Sealing up Vision and Prophecy - Part 2
Pastor Tosin Gabriel
The seventieth week is for the confirmation of the covenant.
Daniel 9:24
Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the Most Holy.
Our Lord Jesus Christ accomplished everything on the cross; when He died and went to hell.
Acts 2:27
Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.
It was the prayer of Jesus that David prayed (Psalm 16:10). The prophets and psalms all spoke about Jesus and made reference to His resurrection from the dead. Jesus’ soul went to hell, His body went to the grave. Jesus Christ parted into three (3); He yielded up His spirit, His soul went to hell and His body was in the grave. Jesus was scattered so that He would be able to gather us together. When the glory of the Father raised Him up, He was put together as one. When Jesus resurrected, He was together Spirit, Soul and Body and when He went to heaven He purged our sins. Jesus first of all paid for our sins. Sin can be paid for without being purged. Jesus first of all paid for our sins on the cross and when He resurrected, He went to Heaven to purge our sins. Our sin is not first of all our sin. Sin did not originate from man. An angel sinned from the beginning; satan sinned from the beginning.
1 John 3:8
He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil.
Anyone who commits sin is of the devil. Sin originated from satan, it wasn’t man’s invention; rather, it was satan’s invention. If Jesus paid for our sins on the cross and didn’t go to Heaven to purge us from our sins, we can never be free from our sins. We wouldn’t be free if our sin was not payed for and purged. Satan sold sin to man in the garden. Adam and Eve were without sin in the garden but satan packaged sin as a life and sold it to man through the fellowship of the knowledge of good and evil. Man became partaker of sin and from that time, he became of the devil because he that committed sin is of the devil. The only legal ground of satan in man is sin.
1 John 3:8
He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil.
Works of the flesh are different from works of the devil. Works of the flesh are the visibility and manifestation of sin. Sin is deeper than works of the flesh. A man can be free from works of the flesh without being free from the works of the devil. When we were younger in the faith, works of the devil were seen as lack of money, headache, malaria, fever, not making it in life etc. Works of the devil are actually the speakings of "making it in life". It is possible to pray a prayer to amplify the works of the devil. The real making it in life means making it in Christ because Christ is Life. We must make it in Christ. Everything must be done in Christ. The idea of making it in life is the sin itself. Such prayer is a prayer desiring to have edge over others; to raise envy in the eyes of others. It is to raise pride of life in man.
Light reveal the works of men and rebukes it which is why man doesn’t like to come to light. The works of the devil is sin. Sin is higher than fornication but is not without it. Judgement raises us as we grow, to see that malice is higher than fornication. Malice is seated deep down in the heart, not visible and can be domiciled in man for many years. This doesn’t mean that fornication is better. They are all sin. Sin must not be normal in us.
The order of our Lord Jesus is that He was led as a sheep to the slaughter that openeth not His mouth. If Jesus opened His mouth, everything about us and Him will be lost.
Isaiah 53:7
He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet He opened not His mouth: He is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so He openeth not His mouth.
The Lord will undo works of the devil in us. Works of the devil is an ambition that every man wants to fulfil and when a soul doesn't fulfill it, he feels unfulfilled.The works of the devil are judgements. The essence of the work of the devil on the inside is to put man down to reason together with the devil and buy into his works.The demand of God over our Lord Jesus Christ was that He dies to enter glory and part of the curriculum of that death is to be led as a sheep to the slaughter without opening His mouth. This is a judgement. A man acquiring the judgement of God in his life will live a different mannerism of life. Abraham didn’t build a house. We won't judge God unfaithful if we don't eventually build a house. This is not our main pursuit on earth. We are on earth to acquire God.
Genesis 1:26
And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
We must not leave the main purpose of living and acquire vanity. Vanity is not our essence of living.
Hebrews 1:2-4
Hath in these last days spoken unto us by His Son, whom He hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also He made the worlds; Who being the brightness of His glory, and the express image of His person, and upholding all things by the word of His power, when He had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high; Being made so much better than the angels, as He hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.
Jesus Christ finished the curriculum of Daniel 9:24; He purged our sins and then sat down. Jesus anointed the most Holy and became the High Priest. As long as there is a going out from the Most Holy, Jesus is not yet anointed. Aaron and his sons entered the most Holy once a year to offer sacrifices for the people; at this, it meant that the Most Holy was not yet anointed because we must have someone who can enter the Most Holy and go no more out. In the Most Holy, we don’t sit, we stand. Jesus entered the Most Holy, offered sacrifice for man and stood there. Aaron offered atonement for sin and went out of the Most Holy (every year). The people still sinned because sin had not yet been fully purged.
Hebrews 9:12
Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by His own blood He entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption [for us].
Jesus entered the Most Holy with His own blood, it is His blood that could do that job. The blood of Jesus is not the blood of Christ but the blood of the Everlasting father. The blood shed on the cross is the blood of the Everlasting Father; it is the blood of God.
Acts 20:28
Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which He hath purchased with His own blood.
Jesus Christ attained to this status. It takes an everlasting blood to purge everlasting works because sin is not spiritual but everlasting because the person who committed sin from the beginning is everlasting in nature but not eternal. Sin is higher than man which is why man became a slave of sin. Man served sin. The life satan gave was a life higher than man. Man is inferior to angels. Jesus was made a little lower than angels but later became higher than angels. It takes something higher than angels to free man from the hold of an angel (satan).
Hebrews 2:9
But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man.
Hebrews 1:4
Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.
Jesus entered the Most Holy, purged our sins and sat down. He went to the root and source of sin and cut it off then began another source which is the administration of everlasting righteousness. This is our assurance, that we will have everlasting righteousness.
Daniel 9:24
Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the Most Holy.
Jesus sat down after purging our sins.
Hebrews 1:3
Who being the brightness of [His] glory, and the express image of His person, and upholding all things by the word of His power, when He had by Himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;
The confirmation of the covenant doesn’t mean the covenant was not there. It has been done between God and man which is the atonement to reconcile God with man through Jesus. Then God made Jesus to became the mediator and minister of the covenant
Hebrews 8:6
But now hath He obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also He is the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises.
On the throne, Jesus Christ is still a minister who obtained a more excellent ministry. The person who gave sin (satan) has an excellent ministry to make man sin to the uttermost which is why Jesus was given a more excellent ministry so that it can overcome the excellent ministry of the devil. From that point after Jesus appeared before God for us and represented mankind by His blood, He became the mediator of a better covenant established upon better promises.
Revelation 5:3-5
And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon. And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon. And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.
Jesus prevailed. When He appeared before God, He could open the book because His sacrifice was a more excellent sacrifice. Jesus Christ is the final sacrifice that God could accept. By this one offering, God will perfect all those who have been sanctified. Our strength is in what Jesus did and overcame. He is a minister and mediator of this better covenant.
Hebrews 8:6
But now hath He obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also He is the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises.
The secret of finishing transgression, ending sins and reconciling iniquity because they are everlasting in nature is the application of a higher everlasting power which is by the administration of the everlasting covenant which is the ministry that will undo transgression, sins, and iniquity. The covenant of God is initiated by God because we don’t have the facility to do so. Jesus initates the everlasting covenant with us by His speakings.
Isaiah 55:2-3
Wherefore do ye spend money for [that which is] not bread? and your labour for [that which] satisfieth not? hearken diligently unto Me, and eat ye [that which is] good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness. Incline your ear, and come unto Me: hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, [even] the sure mercies of David.
If we don’t incline our ears to hear, we cannot be free from everlasting sin, transgression and iniquity because they are all products of hearing. What makes the soul to live is hearing. Without hearing, the soul cannot live. What made man sin is hearing. Satan was conversing with Eve and then she bought into the thought.There is no making of everlasting covenant outside of hearing. We must be skilful in hearing.
Luke 8:18
Take heed therefore how ye hear: for whosoever hath, to him shall be given; and whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he seemeth to have.
Everlasting covenant is what makes us sure. God doesn’t see us as a sure people if we have not yet made everlasting covenant with God. What made God the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is as a result of an everlasting covenant that was made. Even though they have dropped their bodies, they are still living; for God is the God of the living and not the dead. David is a sure man. We will be made as sure as David (Amen).
Isaiah 55:3
Incline your ear, and come unto Me: hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, [even] the sure mercies of David.
Isaiah 28:16
Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner [stone], a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.
Jesus is a sure man and we are going to be made sure like Him. A man is made sure by the everlasting covenant. What the everlasting covenant will do to make us sure is by the speakings of the words of everlasting life. When we begin to receive words of everlasting life, we are being made sure. God wants to build us a sure house. Sure house is our placement in the Most Holy; when we become a pillar that goes no more out. That we enter the Most Holy doesn't mean we are already sure.
Revelation 3:12
Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of My God, and the name of the city of My God, [which is] new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from My God: and [I will write upon him] My new name.
Entering the Most Holy is to teach us how to be sure. Satan fell from the Most Holy; he was in the Most Holy place, yet not sure. God wants to anoint the Most Holy by having olive trees that are sure. Becoming olive trees in the Most Holy is when we become a pillar that can go no more out. Entering and not continuing in hearing and obeying the everlasting covenant will still lead to going out. That we enter the Most Holy doesn’t move satan. Transgression, sin and iniquity are operations of the Most Holy and what they want to deal with in us. In the Most Holy, we may still make transgression but they will be patient with us because they know if we still continue in this word, it will change us and we will be erected as pillars.
Hebrews 12:22
But ye are come unto Mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels,
Mount Zion is the Most Holy place. Welcome to Mount Zion is welcome to the Most Holy. When we enter the Most Holy, they will know that we are still new there and have not yet mastered the place. The job in Most Holy is hearing. If we don’t hear, we can’t do.They don’t expect doing first but excellency in hearing first before we do.
Incline means to ‘gbeti soke’. It is possible to hear and not yet incline. If opinions of this world are still what we hear, we are not yet inclining our ears. Entering the Most Holy doesn’t mean we have overcome the dragon. We are on the building of overcoming. What makes us overcomers is when we enter the ark. Entering the most holy is still under the tutelage of the Father. To be caught up to God is our entrance into the ark. Entering the ark is when we get caught up to God. The ark is the dark room of God. The hidden manna is in the ark and we eat it in the ark. We must be hidden to eat the hidden manna. Jesus was hidden to eat the hidden manna.
Hebrews 1:6
And again, when He bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, He saith, And let all the angels of God worship Him.
This means Jesus entered a place where angels couldn't see Him. Jesus entered the ark to feed on the testament.
Revelation 11:1
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.
Warfare is still in the Most Holy place, just as the Holy Place also has warfare. Holy Place warfare is lower than Most Holy Place warfare. The warfare of Mount Zion (Most Holy place) is the warfare of brethren and brethren who are inclining their ears to hear what the dragon is saying. Balaam is a mount Zion entity. Jezebel, Nicolaitanes are Most Holy Place warfare. This warfare is among brethren who Satan keeps talking to in order to make them incline to what he is saying because sin, iniquity and transgressions have not yet been overcome in them. Sin must be well defined. Malice is higher than fornication but has a superior. The origin of sin itself is the thought of anything outside of God.
1 John 1:8
If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
Our ‘okay-ness’ is when we and God become one; inseparable, because death is separation from God. When hell and death is undone in us, we will do only that which we see our Father do. As long as we can independently generate a way or solution, we are still sinners. Sin is self-help. This is the sin that will be dealt with in the Most Holy. In the outercourt, Holy Place and Most Holy, they will be dealing with different levels of sin in us. As long as we can help ourselves, we are still constituted as sinners. When we enter the Most Holy, we must be helpless. The secret of abiding is in our helplessness. God wants to help the helpless. He is a Father to the needy and the poor. ‘Poor’ means to be helpless.
Matthew 5:3
Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Jesus was anointed without measure but lived everyday as an helpless man. If Jesus didn't see Himself as an helpless man, He would have done what the Father is not doing. Jesus only spoke that which He heard of the Father.
John 8:26
I have many things to say and to judge of you: but he that sent me is true; and I speak to the world those things which I have heard of him.
This is a man who is inclining His ears.
John 8:7-8
So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her. And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.
Jesus consulted judgement from the Father. He consulted from the Living Oracle living on His inside before He could speak. Every time Jesus lived on earth, He consulted the Father. Self-help is the sin that is dealt with in the Most Holy. We must be helpless, contrite, poor and needy in the spirit.
Isaiah 66:2
For all those things hath Mine hand made, and all those things have been, saith the Lord : but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at My word.
Psalm 51:17
The sacrifices of God [are] a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
Physical poverty is not a process. It is possible to have money and still not know what to do. Psalm 51:17 is talking of a man that is living according to the standard of the Father.
Sex is a blessing in marriage. It is a way of portraying fellowship between man and His maker. Sex outside of marriage is perversion of intimacy and if a soul keeps excercising in such, such a soul can go to lake.
Revelation 21:8
But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
The sin of Adam and Eve in the garden is that they resorted to self-help.
Genesis 3:22
And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest He put forth His hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:
'One of us' means man could now make His own decsion. God gave Adam a wife. Adam didn't know he needed a woman, it was God who gave him a wife. When we are too conscious of who to marry, we are engaging in self-help. God was training man on what he needs. God will tell man what he needs and not man telling himself. If we incline our ears to hear, we can get there. The Lord will so work on us that we will not know what we need per time.
Matthew 6:32-33
(For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
These things shall be added. If we get them by ourselves, we are committing sin. We must make sure our Heavenly Father is leading us in all we do, this is judgement. We must not plan our lives outside of God’s leading. When we abound in resources most times, our dependence level in God drops. This is because we start planning outside God which ought not to be so.
Proverbs 3:5-6
Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths.
James 4:14-15
Whereas ye know not what [shall be] on the morrow. For what [is] your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away. For that ye [ought] to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that.

”These are My groanings, these are the vehement tears, vehement cries that you don’t lead yourselves.”

Truly, this is where we give God problem; we are too self-sufficient. To start in the spirit and end in the flesh is using things God has given us against God and it becomes an hinderance to our progress. This is when we start with God and don’t continue with God. Jesus is the perfect man. If Jesus didn’t incline to God, He could have gone contrary to His will.
James 4:15
For that ye [ought] to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that.
Everyone who goes through the Most Holy curriculum and finishes it will become sure. A sure person is an abider. It is a sure man that God will call inside the ark to partake of the testament. What satan did in man is his boast. He feels so sure that man cannot be free from self-help. The thought in satan’s heart was his downfall though he didn't act it.
Isaiah 14:13-14
For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the Most High.
May God conquer our thoughts with divine judgement (Amen).
A man can enter Mount Zion and still be cast out. Such a man will never be the same again. An outcast out of mount Zion is he who sins wilfully.
Hebrews 10:26
For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,
Nothing can remit a man who is receiving the knowledge of the incorruptible seed and does not do its demand, because such a soul has made up his mind to sin wilfully.
Hebrews 10:26
For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,
This is a scripture for those in everlasting life and not Christ.
Hebrews 10:27
But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.
Satan and his angels had the knowledge of truth in their order and still committed sin. They sinned willfully.
Hebrews 10:28-29
He that despised Moses' law died without mercy under two or three witnesses: of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?
May we never come here (Amen). These are sins unto perdition in Mount Zion.
Hebrews 10:39
But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.
This is why they kept warning the Hebrew church because they had come to mount Zion.
Hebrews 12:22
But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels,
The church here has entered Mount Zion.
To finish transgression, end sin and make reconciliation for inquity is the change of our personality. What makes us have self-help is our personality. Our sin is our person. What Jesus is fighting now is our person. As long as our person is intact, there is no change for such a soul. He has to change our person and install His person in us.
Hebrews 1:3
Who being the brightness of [His] glory, and the express image of His person, and upholding all things by the word of His power, when He had by Himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;
Jesus is the express image of God's person. Nothing in Jesus was conflicting with God. The Father has sat comfortably in Jesus and God wants to rest in man too. Self will contend with the throne of God. 666 is number of man in his corruptible estate who has taken full possession of himself. The man of sin is the fullness of the corruptible man.
Revelation 13:18
Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number [is] six hundred threescore [and] six.
The man of sin has become the god of himself. Self-confidence is an exaltation of self in the throne of God so that God can no longer have His throne in man so that God will not have any place in man. May God dethrone self in us (Amen). He has to pull it down so that He can constitute Himself inside of us.
Interpretation of Tongues (2)
"Eye salve, I bring eye salve to wash eyes, to change your judgment I bring eye salve. I am introducing to you resurrection force. For it is in this wise, by this thought that you resurrect out of the estate of the dead. For you see, he is a murderer from the beginning, a liar from the beginning and he sinned from the beginning. For you see, that lie, that sin, that death are all constituted in the word called self. For to self is to die, so therefore I bring you thoughts of resurrection. For it is resurrection when you are totally inclined to God's will, completely abandoned to the will of God. It is resurrection when you can of your own self do nothing, it is resurrection when you are totally dead to self inclination. This is resurrection when you are totally slain and found in God. I bring you resurrection thoughts, I bring you the very reason why you are apprehended, I bring you the very core of My gospel. This is the gospel of everlasting life even to yank, dethrone man out of the throne of his own heart and to this end is the end of My everlasting covenant. It is to make covenant against yourself, against your own will, against your own makeup and constitution, to make covenant against that evil covenant. To make covenant against satan, for satan hides in your self and if you don't take heed, he will fill you unto perdition, if you don't take heed he will fill your heart as he filled the son of perdition. But you can kill that seed, trample, destroy that seed even by the administration of the incorruptible seed. The Lord brings to you the campaign of resurrection."

The incorruptible seed is the answer to undoing self. The day the incorruptible seed drops in us, warfare begins. The incorruptible seed is sent to undo works of the devil in us. Works of the devil is enshrined in self.
1 John 3:8
He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
As we deny self, we are crucifying self. Self is a god that must die.
Luke 9:23
And He said to [them] all, if any [man] will come after Me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily, and follow Me.
Genesis 3:22
And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of Us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:
Man became like God.
Romans 8:14
For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
Leading means we are hijacked by the Holy Ghost which is the making of a son. Thinking on yourself is the way of destruction.
Proverbs 14:12
There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof [are] the ways of death.
Conquering ourselves is by everlasting judgement through the incorruptible seed. The incorruptible seed is in us and has come to war and to conquer our selves in us. For the seed is a warrior and a conqueror.
Prayer:
Lord, conquer us, conquer our thoughts, let us be for You and You alone.
