KAIROS - The Fellowship Of The Holy Spirit
There is a right and critically opportune moment in which the Lord God in heaven positions all things in such a way that some people are prepared for the reception of his Holy Spirit. You could call it "the touch of God". It's kind of like a special spiritual plowing of the road, when God comes and makes a way through all the fogs and blizzardy storms of life. We call it KAIROS, or "God's Special Time".
We've seen miracles in these God moments. We've seen lives transformed. We've witnessed sins confessed, and washed away never again to bubble up and punish the redeemed people who God has prepared and forgiven. We've followed up with these people and have witnessed the ongoing ministry of The Holy Spirit continually working within these people, day by day. This is KAIROS, aka The Fellowship of The Holy Spirit.
We are facing off with the world, and the spirit of this world. We are going out, we're going inside, and we're going into battle. And thank God! We are not going alone. For God is going before us.
The world is blinded by the spirit of this world. This world cannot receive the Spirit of Truth from God, sent by Jesus Christ, because the world needs to be prepared. God pours out his Spirit and makes Him available for all, but all cannot receive Him because not everyone is prepared to receive Him. We go inside to prepare the way for the Lord. We go to do battle with the unprepared world.
And we do not go blindly, or naively, we know that the world has been preparing a defense against the Holy Spirit. This world's spirit seeks to harmonize all the earth spirits and religious messages into one universal message of Antichrist (animism), employing the spirits of creation and the worship of the created world. This spirit isn't trying to kill the Christian's Spirit, it's trying to woo them. It's trying to declaw the Christian and instead make them into silent compromising sheep. By enveloping these Christian's into the fold of the spirit of animism, they unconvert them into the congregation of the silent masses. They shush them, and quiet them, they relegate them into keeping to their own private religious clubhouses and coffee-clatches. They, in effect, are not preparing the way for the Holy Spirit to be received by the believers and seekers, but instead are preparing confusion and doubt. Not even the good world, the educated world, the gentle cultured world, can receive the Holy Spirit when they belong to this spirit of the world's creation. These are the first Adam people, they have the spirit of Adam, not the Spirit of Christ. Only the "New Creation" can receive. They are the company of the New Spirit of Christ who hears the Shepherds voice and are prepared to receive the Holy Spirit. This is why we go inside and what we're doing when we get there. We are making a way, preparing the way for The Spirit of Truth.
Hear this word from God -
This is who we are and why we do what we do.
1 John 4:6 John - the Apostle said: "We belong to God, and those who know God listen to us. If they do not belong to God, they do not listen to us. That is how we know if someone has the Spirit of truth or the spirit of deception."
And this is our message, the reason we are being sent to prepare the way.
John 14:15-17 Jesus said to them: “If you love me, obey my commandments. And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Advocate, who will never leave you. He is the Holy Spirit, who leads into all truth.
What does The Holy Spirit teach when He is finally received?
Jesus said to His followers, “For sure, things will come that will make people sin (Luke 17) and He warned against them who teach sin. Jesus said, "Watch yourselves! If your brother sins, speak sharp words to him. If he is sorry and turns from his sin, forgive him."
The teaching is forgiveness of sin, repentance and obedience to God's commandments of Love. It's that simple. We don't teach we must forgive ourselves; we teach that we are forgiven and must receive that forgiveness. In effect we are not forgiving ourselves, we are merely giving ourselves permission to receive His forgiveness. And he cautions us to keep "watch!" because the spirit of this world will attempt to complicate and confuse that simple message.
Conclusion: Our mission during this special time is to prepare the way for the works of The Holy Spirit. He does the work, he makes the transformation happen, we simply prepare the way. We do this because we have heard the word from our Lord and have obeyed his commands. We hear him and we prepare the way for him to be heard by those who God is preparing to receive. That's it, we in effect clear the way for the Spirit. And we do that mostly by getting out of His way. We simply become His witnesses to that message. We are not the message, just the messengers. And we trust that God's message will make a way for us and his word will not return to him void. Kairos is when eternity steps into time. Just the right time, God's time. So as we take each step into that world, know that we are not alone, God's is going before us.
Isaiah 55:10–11 says, “As the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, . . . So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void” (KJV).
