The Bible tells us that in the last days, God will pour out His Spirit on all flesh (Acts 2:17). These last days have been in effect since the Day of Pentecost, and this promised outpouring of the Holy Spirit includes men, women, young and old; none are exempt. A vital part of this 'last days outpouring' includes a release of the prophetic
Hebrews 7:1-11
THE APOSTOLIC MANTLE – Cause me to gravitate to the book of Genesis, The doctrines of creation, how man ruled and governed the garden, imputation of sin, justification, atonement, depravity, wrath, grace, sovereignty, responsibility, and many more are all addressed in this book of origins called Genesis.
MY PROPHETIC MANTLE – Causes me to draw to the books of – Joshua, Judges, Samuel and Kings) in the Hebrew Bible/Old Testament that constitute a theological history of the Israelites which explains God's law for Israel under the guidance of the prophets.

THE LEVITICAL PRIESTHOOD – Is The Order to Serve
Every Apostolic house have this level of servanthood.
In the O.T. there was only one level to serve as a priest, but in the N.T. all three mantle where at work at once.

The Tabernacle Duties of the Levites,
1. While the people slept they maintained the altar with fire burning and provide wood at all times the fire must not go out.
The fire used to burn the incense was always taken from the altar of burnt offering outside the sanctuary (Leviticus 16:12). Once a year, on the Day of Atonement, the high priest was to put blood on the horns of the altar of incense to cleanse it. The altar of incense was called 'most holy to the Lord' (verse 10).
2. The Levites carried water – They would carry the water and pour it into the laver so the priest could wash their hands.
3. The Levites where responsible for removing the ashes from the altar.
4. The Levites job was to remove all of the animal dung or waste.
5. The Levites where subject to Kronos (time) seasons
Chronos governed linear, chronological time, contrasted with the other Greek word for time, kairos, meaning the indeterminate moment that is right for something to occur.[
A Proper Understanding of Kairos Time
When Paul instructs us in Ephesians 5 to redeem the time, he chooses a particular word to express his concept of time. It's not the Greek word chronos, which means measurable or quantifiable time. It's kairos, which means a season or an opportune time.
Review of Kairos Mindset: Paul describes our time here on this Earth as a series of opportunities. We don't want to keep our heads down and focus, focus, work, work – and miss the opportunities around us to serve others or to do good. The best way to manage your time is not to rigidly schedule and obsess over minutes and seconds. The best way to manage your time is to keep an eye out for the potential around you and then to pounce when the moment is right.
Redeeming Our Opportunities; Here's what's important:
Every second carries with it an opportunity.
Kairos Lifestyle Is Not Passive; Some incorrectly apply the kairos time mindset by thinking that it leads to a tranquil passivity. We patiently wait until presented with a particular situation to which we can respond.
6. Levites had to have their house in order.
Note; These are men and woman who train their family how to behave in the things of the Lord.
THE AARON ORDER: The Order to Worship
The House of Aaron is the Biblical name of the family of Israelite priests ordained by God to serve Him at the Tabernacle in the wilderness and, later, at the temple in Jerusalem. Aaronites were a family within the tribe of Levi.
3. The Melchizedek Order – The Order of Kings, this is the order that reveals God. Genesis 14;18 -20
ROM 5:17 Says we will reign in life through Jesus, the greek word for "REIGN" is derived from the the word for "KING". And means to be a king.
The Word says that two of the anointings that believers have received are
those of Kings, and Priests. Hebrews 6:30 says Jesus "has become a high priest forever in the order of Melchizedek" .
The next verse says that Melchizedek was the KING of Salem (Jerusalem) and PRIEST of God Almighty. By the way Melchizedek means "king of righteousness", and king of salem means "king of peace".
These 2 offices are intertwined under the "Melchizedek" anointing. They are intertwined under Jesus' anointing, and they are intertwined under YOUR anointing, they are inseperable.
You are a Royal Priesthood, a Kingdom of Priests of God, and your calling is an Eternal one just like Melchizedek's and Jesus'.
It is extremly important that we become conscious of these offices that ALL believers are called to stand in.
