IMPORTANT WARNINGS ABOUT 220 POWER

QUOTES FROM BOB JONES SHEPHERD'S ROD 1997

http://www.bobjones.org/articles.htm

On February 20, 1992, the Lord gave a vision and in this vision I was shown a movie projector. Yet I noticed the cord for the movie projector was not plugged in. I asked the Lord to plug the projector in so that it would operate. However, the Lord stated that it wasn't grounded properly and if it were plugged in it would actually burn itself up. The Lord indicated that it needed to be grounded in three scriptures:

(Ephesians 3:17) - Rooted and grounded in love.

(Colossians 1:23) - Rooted and grounded in faith.

(I Timothy 3:15) - Rooted and grounded in truth.

The Lord indicated that the wiring necessary for His sovereign power was 220 wiring. The truth for this can be found in Galatians 2:20. I HAVE BEEN CRUCIFIED WITH CHRIST AND IT IS NO LONGER I WHO LIVE BUT CHRIST WHO LIVES IN ME AND THE LIFE WHICH I NOW LIVE IN THE FLESH I LIVE BY THE FAITH OF THE SON OF GOD WHO LOVED ME AND GAVE HIMSELF UP FOR ME.

The Lord is announcing in this year's Day of Atonement revelation that He has now built sufficient character in some leadership during the past five years essential for maintaining and reflecting the power for end-time ministry. With this character the Lord is saying " I can now begin to show the church previews of things to come".

In addition to this wonderful promise we are also given a warning through Galatians 2:21. This warning clearly stipulates that we should not frustrate nor nullify the grace of God anymore.

The following is a short synopsis of Bob Jones’ vision God’s 220 power. I have done my best to keep the integrity of the Word. This synopsis is from a 9 page article called "The House of God" which can be found at his website: http://www.bobjones.org/articles.htm

SYNOPSIS OF THE ARTICLE CALLED "THE HOUSE OF GOD"

Vision given to Bob Jones; written by Paul Keith Davis

Prior to the end of 1999, Bob was taken in the Spirit to see a beautiful house, but the Lord said, "Yes, this is a very beautiful house, unfortunately, it has no lights."…. Bob saw a reducer on the circuits and this had diminished the power flow. Then he noticed that the ground wire had been severed. A ground wire in electrical language usually touches the earth to protect from shock or burn out. Because the ground wire was severed, the hot wire had burned out. A hot wire is the wire that carries the power flow to the lights.

The Lord explained that the severed ground wire was the "Logos" or written Word of God. And the hot wire was the "Rhema" or the revealed spoken Word of God. He explained that all rhema must have a solid grounding in the Logos Word of God. It is very dangerous to have "hot wire" rhema or revelation that is not grounded in God’s Word. This can cause error and calamity. This is why a reducer had been placed upon the wiring of this beautiful house. The Lord did not want the power flow to destroy the house or its occupants.

QUOTE: "The Lord said that we were not properly wired and equipped to handle the great source of power to be dispersed in this generation. This symbolic expression emphasized the great need for continued preparatory refinement. It is imperative we are properly "grounded" and empowered with both the "Logos" and "Rhema" revelation of the Lord's plans, purposes and will. It is the development of Godly character and maturity essential for the release of this magnitude of power."

SANDY SUMMARY OF ABOVE NOTES

For those operating in the Lord’s 220 power, it is important that they be rooted and grounded in love, faith and truth. Those who have gone through death to self have developed the character to flow in this anointing.

It is important that all experiences in the Lord be grounded in both the scriptures and revelation. (Logos and rhema)

Logos is a Greek Word recorded 326 times in the New Testament with the Strong’s number of 3056 according to PC Bible Soft. Primarily it means the spoken Word of God along with reasoning. Thus, most scholars interpret the word to mean both the scriptures and doctrine. Logos is also the Word for Christ in John 1:1-2,14 where in the beginning was the Word.

Rhema is also a Greek word meaning God’s spoken Word. However it is directly related to a specific matter or topic. Most agree that this relates to the specific revelation or understanding of what God speaks. According to PC Bible Soft, it is recorded 73 times in the NT with the Strong’s number of 4487 (Matt 4:4)
