CASUALLY FERVENT
These two words seem ridiculous when put together,
unless you are describing a kingdom general, who is patterning his life after
Me. This is maturity at it's peak, like walking softly and carrying a big stick,
always knowing that greater am I within you then whoever is in the world.
Casual, in most every instance describes a poor character quality, leaving you
with the feeling of half hearted or a compromiser. However you can be standing
right next to a champion of the kingdom, and never know it, unless an impossible
situation arises. My servant David was a gentle giant killer, casually fervent.
At this point the casual outside cloak falls off, and fervent Holy Ghost power
shoots out and levels the opposition.
The Philistine said unto David, Am
I a dog, that thou comest to me with staves? And the Philistine cursed David by
his gods. [44] And the Philistine said to David, Come to me, and I will give thy
flesh unto the fowls of the air, and to the beasts of the field. [45] Then David
took of the casual clothes and said to the Philistine, Thou comest to me with a
sword, and with a spear, and with a shield: but I come to thee in the name of
the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom thou hast defied. [46]
This day will the Lord deliver thee into mine hand; and I will smite thee, and
take thine head from thee; and I will give the carcases of the host of the
Philistines this day unto the fowls of the air, and to the wild beasts of the
earth; that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel." 1 Samuel
17:43-46 (KJV) After fervency removed his head he went back to
casual.
Sleep is the ultimate casual and one day "there arose a great
tempest in the sea, insomuch that the ship I was in was covered with waves: but
I didn't know it because was asleep. [25] And My disciples came to Me , and woke
Me, saying, Lord, save us: we perish, they were really freaked out. [26] And I
casually said to them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? So I got up and
fervently, rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm." Matthew
8:24-26 (KJV)
One day I casually walked into the temple and "found in the
temple enclosure those who were selling oxen and sheep and doves, and the money
changers sitting there also at their stands. [15] So I casually made a lash (a
whip) of cords, and then suddenly all My casualness dropped off as My fervency
was in plain sight as I drove them all out of the temple enclosure--both the
sheep and the oxen--spilling and scattering the brokers'' money and upsetting
and tossing around their trays (their stands). [16] Then to those who sold the
doves He said, Take these things away (out of here)! Make not My Father''s house
a house of merchandise (a marketplace, a sales shop)! [17] As I put My casual
nature back on My disciples remembered that it is written in the Holy
Scriptures, Zeal (the fervor of love) for Your house will eat Me up. I will be
consumed with jealousy for the honor of Your house." John 2:14-17
(AMP)
It is dangerous to hang around a kingdom champion and have a hidden
agenda. The Holy Spirit knows those who are of like faith and those who are not.
When He says, ENOUGH, the casual clothes come off and Holy Ghost power deals
fervently and then the kingdom moves ahead.
When My people, "Urged on, by
faith, crossed the Red Sea as though on dry land, but when the Egyptians tried
to do the same thing, My Father's fervency said, ENOUGH and they were swallowed
up by the sea." Hebrews 11:29 (AMP)
Rebellious board members who
criticized My leader experienced first hand when My father took off His casual
garment and His fervency came out "And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed
them up, and their houses, and all the men that appertained unto Korah, and all
their goods. [33] They, and all that appertained to them, went down alive into
the pit, and the earth closed upon them: and they perished from among the
congregation. [34] And all Israel that were round about them fled at the cry of
them: for they said, Lest the earth swallow us up also." Numbers 16:32-34 (KJV)
I will put up with a lot, but don't mess with My kingdom. My generals
are on earth to lead in Our kingdom building project. They have our love, power
and faith, making them relaxed and casual, but they are like Me, very very
fervent on the inside, with a heavenly vision that must be fulfilled. "Touch
not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm. Psalm 105:15 (KJV) because My
Spirit will not allow My anointed to be touched or My plan to be thwarted. Flow
with those that are building My kingdom and you will be raised up to do mighty
things. Everyone has a choice, be raise
