Is It We Who Are Visiting with God?

God will always remain where He is established. He is already comfortable with His habitation. It is us, as His people, that must become confident in remaining in the essence of God. The habitation is with us, and not from God. He is settled. Now is the time that we must become settled in the image of Him that created us!

Could it be that it is we who are living a lifestyle of visitation with God? He remains. The Kingdom cannot be shaken, neither can it be moved. Is it we who are visiting with God? Can the Father cry for habitation for His sons? Can the Father, Himself, be crying in Himself, that His sons become settled in the God-Image? He is wanting to experience a habitation of sons. God is settled in Himself. It's now time for us to become settled in a definite and significant commitment with God.

When we are settled in the Father, we will also become settled with the responsibilities that comes with being a son of God. We are settled with the transitions. We become settled in the movements of the Divine Mover. Our very nature that we share with God will now become settled with the Governmental Strategies of God in the earth.

Oh yes, the habitation is for us, not God. We must become His habitation. He is with us. He will never leave Himself. He is forever settled in the Presence. We are not "flesh" that He would not strive with us. We are His very Nature. He will not strive with flesh, but He will remain with Himself. He will remain with His very own!


Confidence Comes When We Are Established and Remain in Him

When we become established, and embrace the disciplines that come with being partakers of the Divine Nature, we will become settled in the Kingdom's depth. Confidence comes as a result of being in the right place, knowing you are in the right place, and wanting to be in that right place! Confidence comes when options have been done away with. 

Confidence comes when the results have been accepted, even before they have manifested. Paul, in regards to his journey to Jerusalem, had already accepted the possibilities of death. Therefore beatings and imprisonments that were prophesied to him as a result of the impending trip, did not move him at all.

Confidence comes when you cannot be moved. You may not know everything about where you are, but you are unmovable! When we become the Habitation of the Lord, we will not move. We will not reach for our fleshly alternative of living when the Process of Maturity has been increased. We will not seek to be mere humans when the troubles arise against the sons of God. We must become more than a visitation to God. We must become "the sons that remain."


Citizenship vs. Tourism

Those who remain in the Presence will also live from the Presence. When you live from the Presence, you will do those things that are found hidden in the Presence! You can only do what you see God doing. And if you cannot see Him, you cannot do what He is doing! When you are a visitor, options will consistently remain. You will become burdened with the dilemmas of "should I stay, or should I go?" You will become confused with the many alternatives that are at your finger tips.

Visitors are not committed to the long haul. Visitors already have a set priority within themselves, and they are not choosing to become a citizen of the new region. They are in a new region with an I.D. that establishes them with another city. If you are a visitor to God, the ability to even fathom remaining with His Truth is not present. It's not even in the heart of a visitor to become a citizen of the city when their heart is established in their own place!

When your heart is already established in your own place of identity, as well as your own perspectives of life, culture, and experience, habitation is far from your mind. When one becomes an inhabiter of God, and the essence of His Dominion, they function in life from that very Identity.


God Is Standing Where He Has Always Been Standing

God isn't going anywhere. Where can He go? Where can He hide Himself? God is standing where He has always been standing, even before the foundations of the world. But with a heart of visitation, it will be hard to see Him, much less find Him.

Only those who live with God, are living in God. When you are "in God," you are everywhere He is. At the same time! You can be living in a different physical location, and yet be where God is. When you are inhabiting the Life of God, you share in His Omnipresence. God is everywhere because He is already filling everything. He is everything. 

When you are in Him, you too are everywhere with Him. When you are in the Father, you don't need to be in a physical place to experience Him. You are the experience of the Father. The Kingdom is not "over there, or over here." It is not a Place which houses an address, neither does it have a phone number. The Kingdom, the Everywhere, and the Forever, is already within you!


When God Becomes Your Habitation, Wherever the Lamb Goes, You Are Already Going!

When you are inhabiting God, wherever the Lamb goes, you are already going! To "physically move" where His heart is not, is merely a change of scenery. But when you are transplanted physically, or even in the Spirit, to a place that is on His mind, you will have power in that place! 

A visitor has no authority in a place that is not theirs. Authority is only with those who are inhabiting the Kingdom. Habitation is not for God to do, but for believers to do!

Where else can the Father go?
