Getting a Wider Perspective of the Will of God

WATCH today’s Global Broadcast teaching as Asher exhorts us to widen our viewpoint of God’s will and His kingdom plan. The influence of western culture on both messianic believers and the Ekklesia has placed too much emphasis on “me, mine and now”. God is interested in our personal needs being met, but He wants us to engage with the fullness of His plan, which includes all the nations of the earth.
According to Einstein, both time and matter are relative, subject to change. But, the speed of light, like God’s will, is absolute. His will has been determined, established. Our will is like a roller coaster that goes up and down based on circumstances. So how do we navigate the path to “His will done on earth as it is in heaven?”
Psalms 110:1 — YHVH said to my Lord, sit at my right hand until I set your enemies as a stool for Your feet.
God’s plan has a starting point and an ending point, but it contains an in-between called “until”. How long is it? What is happening during this period? How do we engage?
His plan also has a “fullness” to it. Even before Abraham had a son, he showed him that his seed would be enslaved for four hundred years (Genesis 15:13-14), “but in the fourth generation they will return here: for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet full” (vs 16).
The “times of the Gentiles” has a fullness as well, according to Luke 21:24. This fullness is connected to the crying out of the Jewish people in Jerusalem, saying, “Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord” (Matthew 23:37-39).
We need to expand our understanding of what it means to wait on the Lord. It’s not all about us in the waiting. He is working in the hearts of mankind to accomplish His purposes and it takes time.

More generations, more fullness, more people
