This is the concluding part of the series. There are different mountains on which people go to seek the Lord. But, it is unfortunate that God is not always on most of those mountains. Where and how are you seeking the Lord.

But upon Mount Zion shall be
Deliverance, and there shall be
Holiness; and the house of Jacob shall
Possess their possessions.

and Compass, give me a map, so I can
find my way to the Sacred Mountain, to

for any demonic attack & oppression to
reach.

authority from Mount Zion & not
Mount Carmel.

10. Not all Rosy times
Paul was a man dwelling on Mount
Zion, but it was not rosy all the time;
There were times of multiple ship
accident & attack by poisonous
snake.
But in all he had DIRECTION & he
was able to give DIRECTION &
encouragement to others in the ship.
11. Active & Passive Direction
The man of HIS PRESENCE is
always LED of God either Actively
or Passively.
Today God wants to talk to us more
PASSIVELY than actively.
This is why our minds are
conditioned (Rom.12:2) BY His
Presence.
12. Active & Passive Direction
A mind that is not conditioned BY
His Presence can not be led
PASSIVELY.
Such a mind will be making errors
upon errors in every decision
including Who to marry.

And it is those who Embrace the
Truth that TRULY know the Truth.
20. Seeking & Embracing the truth
The proof that you know the Truth is
that you will Embrace it when you

OR
When you WEAR the truth like a
Garment;
THEN the truth CONDUCTS
deliverance on you on a daily basis.
The truth personally CONDUCTS
deliverance on those who embrace it,
without ANY special programme.

HOLY BROTHERS, partners in a
heavenly calling, keep your focus on

union with Christ.
This in turn gives you Access or
Direction to ALL you need both
physical (2Cor.9:8) and spiritual
(Eph.1:3).
32. The Truth also gives ALL your possessions
Unfortunately, Genuine Salvation
has become very rare in the church
today.
Such that the house of Jacob finds it
difficult to possess all her
possessions.
Such that many children lack
Direction on how to possess their
possessions.
33. Seeking & Embracing the truth
How then do you seek the TRUTH
in such a way to embrace?
