THE WORD IS YAHUSHUA
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.
John 1:14 [KJV]
In Genesis chapter one, we saw the manifestation of the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit. The Father spoke the Word and creation happened, while the Holy Ghost was brooding over the surface of the deep. The move of the Holy Spirit alone could not bring about creation. Same today, the move of the Holy Spirit alone in your life, Church, family cannot bring about the creation of your desires. We must learn from the Father, who desired creation and spoke the Word. Creation is a function of the spoken Word and the move of the Spirit. Then, man was created. We had man join the family of The Father, Word and Spirit in the beginning. In the process of time, man sold out to the devil breaking fellowship with the trinity. This resulted in the perfect order being lost and man died (spiritually disconnecting with his source and physically returning to the ground as dust in the process of time) and also inheriting the destiny of Satan which is the lake of fire at the end of the age. To provide man with salvation, the Word had to manifest in the flesh of man. It was the same Word that created all things that was spoken to the virgin Mary that became the Lord Yahushua. The Word was made flesh because He must become like unto his brethren in order to redeem them (see Hebrews 2:17 NET). It must be a man that can redeem the fallen man.

TO BE SUCCESSFUL IN THIS PARTNERSHIP (2): MORTIFY FLESH
But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.
I Corinthians 9:27 (KJV)
The greatest enemy of the recreated human spirit is not the devil. When you were born again, you had dominion over the devil and his gates of hell. The greatest enemy of the born again person is his/her flesh. Self is the greatest enemy of the born again person. There are three forces at war in the life of the born again person: the Holy Spirit, the Flesh and the devil. The flesh is always cooperating with the devil that is why you must put it under. Flesh talks about the cravings of the sinful nature. To be useful and usable in the hands of the Lord of the harvest, you must mortify your flesh. You must come to the altar of burnt offering and lay your body at the altar as a living sacrifice. The reason is that you must be salted with fire to be useful in the hand the Lord (see Mark 9:49). If you are still alive in your flesh, you are not useful and usable for the work of the gospel. With your flesh still alive, you cannot represent the Lord and the gospel in your lifestyle which is the most primary form of evangelism. A self that is still alive is full of pride, easily angry, boastful and self-centered.
THE VALUE OF A SOUL

THE VALUE OF A SOUL
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
John 3:16 [KJV]
The value of a thing is determined amongst others by the price you have to pay for it. So, cost determines value. The value of the soul of man can be seen by the cost our Heavenly Father paid to buy it back from sin and Satan. The soul of man is made to live forever. The Soul of man is what will finally end up in heaven or in hell/lake of fire. The breathe of Yahweh at creation was what gave birth to the soul of man (see Genesis 2:7). So, the soul of man is a spiritual reality. Man is not a body. Flesh and blood cannot not inherit the kingdom of Yahweh (see I Corinthians 15:50). Yahweh created man to be like Him and to be His Authority on Earth. However, man handed this authority to the devil, selling himself as a slave to the devil (see Luke 4:6). Man thwarted the plan of Yahweh in collaboration with Satan. Yahweh in His mercy hashed a redemption plan for man. It is important to understand that nothing in heaven or on earth could do anything about redeeming man because the cost is absolutely not affordable by them.

WHAT FASTING OFFERS (1): MORTIFICATION OF THE FLESH
For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.Romans 8:13 (KJV)
We have said over and over again that fasting does not change Adonai. You are not fasting to get Yahweh to change His mind because He is not a man with shifting shadows (James 1:17 NASB). Fasting is a tool to dethrone the flesh and until fasting has accomplished this task, you have not fasted. In Colossians 3:5, we see what must be put to death, “Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth? fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:” and they are not something that you can do once and for all. That accounts why consecrational fasts should be a regular routine for any serious minded believer that is expecting the rapture. But there is a long fast that breaks the holds of these members of your flesh and disables them that they become no more issues in your life. You must take opportunity of at least one 21 or 40 days total fast just to deal with any form of flesh manifestation in your life. Yours may not be fornication, but what of bitterness, pride, hatred, gossip, wrath, malice, lies, envy and jealousy (see Colossians 3:8-9). Even among ministers, you see a lot of envy and jealousy. You need a total fast to lay yourself down at the altar and let the Lord Holy Spirit expose you to you.
