Harvesting The Clouds: The Mystery of the Son of Man.

If the clouds be full of rain, they empty themselves upon the earth

The above Scripture is akin to what Paul says concerning the birth and the coming
of the Christ unto the earth. With reference to his birth, he said he was born out of
due season.... when the clouds be full, they empty themselves upon the earth. With
Christ he mentioned that he was sent (emptied upon the earth) in the fullness of
time. It is therefore important that we receive thorough understanding of the
operations of the clouds so as to key in profitably. The cloud is a reservoir for the
formation of the Son of man. In the clouds is a graphical display of how the angels
ascend and descend upon the son of man.
The operations of the heavens get activated when the clouds open. The clouds bear
records of the Son of man in that he is the consummate Christ in whom we are all
bonded and forged together into the Godhead. That means the clouds bear record
of every individual in Christ as well.
In Gen 15:4, God likened the stars of the heavens to the seed of Abraham which we
are. The believer is of the heavens or was poured forth in the fullness of time upon
the earth to accomplish a task and in the end shall vaporize unto his maker which is
biblically known as rapture. So, Paul said, the Lord shall descend from heaven
and we who are alive and remain in him shall be vaporized or caught up together
with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so, shall we be ever with
Him.
However, do not wait till the rapture to make ascension into clouds for therein is
the believer's nourishment. This was the secret of Christ on the earth. John says he
ascended unto the Father yet He was right here on the earth. The essence of the
resurrection power is to empower the believer to equally dwell on earth yet with
the Father in heaven. This is why God baptised the first church on the wilderness
because the cloud has always been an assembly point of God with His people. And
whenever God called for a gathering, He would descend in the clouds.
The revelation of the Son of man in the clouds has no bearing with the woman.
However, it is premised on the history of his humanity. And the humanity of the
Christ is revealed in the corporate body if the church.

iDeclare
I am identified with Christ in His records in the clouds. My feet are planted in the
clouds and I behold the face of the Son of Man in whose image I am.

Harvesting The Clouds: The Cloud of Witnesses

Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses,
let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us
run with patience the race that is set before us

The believer is positioned on earth to run a race and this is done in a theatre and
witnessed by veterans who equally have been on this same journey, watching on to
see how we will fare. You must understand that you are never alone in this life. You
have a company behind you in the clouds. There's a ranking member in the clouds
who was franked with a palatial visit in the days of his sojourning on the earth. He
is the Son of man, Jesus the Christ. And this visit was antecedent to the fulfilment of
the most important reason for which He was poured forth by the Father unto the
earth. Likewise, God releases members of this family who are either earthly or
divine, living or dead to always come to strengthen the believer at strategic
moments of the execution of the records of their destinies in the clouds. The man of
God Elisha was surrounded by a colossal army which in the records of the natural
meant the end of the Prophet’s life but God had released a company of chariots and
horsemen to surround the man of God.
It will now be clear to you that the reason why you escaped certain tragedies was
simply because there was an invisible partner who went with you and wouldn't
watch on for you to be defeated. They are called the cloud of witnesses. They all
bear record of the testimony of Jesus in that they have been baptised into the cloud
which bear the records of the Son of man. You have records in there as well.
Nobody meddles with the clouds in their ascension and return the same. The cloud
is pregnant with tremendous current of Glory and grace for your participation.

And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the
glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth

The operations of the clouds are to essentially release unto us the verities of grace
and glory. Whenever a man contacts grace, glory simultaneously abounds and the
converse is true. Grace is divine ability for supernatural performance. Grace does
not endorse sin since it’s a distortion to the frequency of the glory. Grace rather is
the remedy to the canker of sin.

iDeclare
I am a member of the family of God both in heaven and on earth. I have the
backing of my family both visible and invisible. Power is on my side.

Scripture Reference
2 Kings 6:16, Hebrews 12:1, Matthew 17:3, John 1:14

I am a member of the family of God both in heaven and on earth. I have the
backing of my family both visible and invisible. Power is on my side.
Harvesting The Clouds: Maximising Grace from The Cloud of Witnesses

We have heard with our ears, O God, our fathers have told us, what work thou
didst in their days, in the times of old.

The things that were written aforetime were written for our learning that we
through patience and comfort of scriptures might have hope. The thesaurus of the
records of the cloud of witnesses is not just to fill space but rather for our learning.
The scriptures typified the believer's unflinching union with the son of man in the
picture of the three Hebrew boys and the fourth man who intervened. That rightly
informs the believer that in whatsoever circumstances he finds himself, there's a
partner. David had this understanding etched into the inner chambers of his spirit
and his testimony was that “ye though I walk through the valley of the shadow of
death I will fear no evil for thou art with me. Thy rod and thy staff they comfort
me”.
Decide not to only read and hear of their testimonies but to become a partaker of
the same. Grace does not undermine efforts and works. Grace amplifies works.
Until there's an effort, grace will produce nothing. Its therefore imperative to
understand how to key into such unfailing supplies.
One of the keys is the avenue of meditation on the works of God through the
justified. Meditate upon the works of God because in them lies the prophetic codes
for reproduction. Prophecy is the ability to speak forth something and it comes to
pass. Every testimony has the ability in itself to be repeated. Elisha memorised the
scene of his master parting the river and determined to replicate it and it worked.
Don't criticise testimonies for in them is to the key to replication.

Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may
appear to all.

If you can give yourself wholly to an Anointing which inherent in the life of any
vessel God is working with, you will surely walk in the same.

iDeclare
I take heed to the script of my life in the cloud. It is my meditation all the day long
and my profiting appears unto all.

Harvesting The Clouds: Maximising Grace From The Cloud of Witnesses II

That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience
inherit the promises.

There's an attitude which men who are part of the elect who are to dwell with the
son of man in the clouds must develop. And it’s the spirit of allegiance for them who
have gone ahead of us in the same course we are charting. It is this spirit which
was in John the Baptist for which reason when he was questioned about the Christ,
he answered without mincing words that he was the voice crying in the wilderness
to announce Christ’s coming. He understood that he must decrease that Christ be
increased. This is the spirit of celebrating the testimonies of the justified. John the
Baptist was told of he who was to come after him but his intuition told him also that
the same Jesus is greater than him. The testimonies of the justified are revelations
of God's goodness and power. God is not a respecter of persons. If he did it for one
person, He can repeat it for another person. Learn not to celebrate only the dead
but also the living.

The next key to engage in order to maximise grace and glory in the cloud of
witnesses is honour. Honour them who are justified in Word and in deed. It is a sign
of participation in their history. There are men who have fasted and prayed for
years. Honour will easily make you a partaker of their history. Walking with God
always demands many years of sacrifices in order to bring that man into certain
realms of Glory. Sow financial seeds into their lives. Honour is a spiritual
technology for ascension. Paul spoke of how his people became partakers of his
grace. Decide to let their obedience be your instruction. Any grace you admire on
any man of God was purchased with obedience but Honour will grant you access
into it. If they prayed, you must also pray. Remember, admiration does not transfer
grace; honour does.

iDeclare
My God is not unrighteous to forget my labour of love shown to his vessels and
continue to show. The legacy of the fathers is my heritage. I walk in same and even
greater measures of grace as shown to my fathers.
