Settle matters quickly with your adversary

“Settle matters quickly with your adversary who is taking you to court. Do it while you are still together on the way, or your adversary may hand you over to the judge, and the judge may hand you over to the officer, and you may be thrown into prison. Truly I tell you, you will not get out until you have paid the last penny."

MATTHEW 5:25-26

The laws of God are every bit as important to God as recognizing his son as the Only way. Lord Jesus lived through the spirit as God. He DID die for all people. After Jesus is accepted as your only way - live the Lord's commands. The spirit you receive for obeying the Lord will provide everything you need - when the Lord determines it is needed. 

Jesus says to settle quickly with your adversary, not to plead your case and fight for your rights. This is the hidden battle that you must bring before the Lord. Jesus wants you to no longer insist on having your own personal will - but rather submit to his ways. This change in disposition occurs through the spirit of the Lord - it is received through faith and obedience to him. The spirit of the Lord cannot be given to any individual that remains in themselves rather than the Lord's will. The power is in him for his purpose.

Jesus is perfect and he lived a perfect life. His perfect spirit exists for you so you can do the same for him. Be insistent on proving the Lord is right through faith - but never insist in proving that you are right. You see the Lord can only use you if you are willing to do his will. 

Discipline in Christ

"If your right eye causes you to stumble, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell. And if your right hand causes you to stumble, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to go into hell."

MATTHEW 5:29-30

In my life with God - the Lord Jesus has completely changed my mind - renewing me in his body - the body of Christ. In all the things of this world I am forbid - for God has placed with me a covenant of all Lord's people. 

When Jesus has his way with you, you will come away changed. You will no longer be the same nor will you desire to be. At once the revelation of Lord Jesus comes upon you, there is no old life to return to. What was old is dead and gone. It is better to be hindered by Christ in the flesh for the purpose of eternal life than to be consumed by the desires of the flesh which lead to death.

Taken by God

"Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus."

PHIILIPPIANS 3:12-14

I have been called by the Lord, not because of acts or accomplishments but because of the Lord's plan. In faith I know my Lord Jesus well. He saved me - he gave me a new life and body, mind, spirit and soul in him. My task is large but simple as all tasks before the Lord. I am guided by the creator of the heavens, moon, stars and sun. My Lord is my King.

There is no thing I can do apart from my Lord. I am not called simply to claim Jesus as King - but rather to speak and teach the Gospel of Jesus - to teach of the power and truth of the Holy Spirit. To spread the good news of the resurrected Lord who is available for all people. The father is the son through the Holy Spirit. 

The Lord apprehended me and took me as his for his good purpose. It is in him that his work can be done. I alone with human power can do nothing except human things which are all meaningless. With the power of Christ - all things can be done with great purpose for the God of Heaven.

You must go everywhere I send you

“Alas, Sovereign Lord,” I said, “I do not know how to speak; I am too young.”

But the Lord said to me, “Do not say, ‘I am too young.’ You must go to everyone I send you to and say whatever I command you. Do not be afraid of them, for I am with you and will rescue you,” declares the Lord."

JEREMIAH 1:6-8

In deliverance, the Lord has spoken. Lay down you life and you will be given eternity for the Lords work - this is your reward for doing as you are created by the father. Lose yourself and find Jesus. He is King. He lives and he is here.

Deliverance comes from Jesus with you turning all thoughts to your Lord. The blood and body you possess were given by Christ - give to Christ what is his.

People of human nature seek justice and fairness at very turn. This is a false hope. In this world, there is no justice or fairness nor was there ever a design for such purpose. This is a human need that leads to destruction. The Lord says follow me and in times of trouble I will rescue you. He does not say you will be treated fairly with the utmost respect. Lose this false notion and do the will of God.

Seeking justice for yourself is the enemy of God. It takes away your purpose in him to be directed by your own internal sense of justice and fairness. This is human nature not God's nature. You are to remove the nature of self such that you do not pity yourself when you face difficulty. This is not devotion to Jesus but rather identification with the lost self. When you lose your self intentionally for Jesus - he will absolutely hold you close in every moment. He will feed you, clothe you and love you and give you great purpose in peace. 

Now is the day...

 "As God’s co-workers we urge you not to receive God’s grace in vain. For he says,

“In the time of my favor I heard you,

    and in the day of salvation I helped you.”

I tell you, now is the time of God’s favor, now is the day of salvation."

2 Corinthians 6:1-2

The Lord Jesus has given me much. Though materially poor beyond measure without a hope in this world. The Lord has elevated me up to him - to live in peace - to love - to smile and to give all that I can for him. In being poor of this world, I have been made great in the eyes of my Lord.

His reward is a pure heart, a loving embrace and constant fellowship.  The Lord Jesus is very real as are his words and those of the father.

Very truly, the Lord Jesus is calling you now. His salvation and love are available at his moment and any moment you call his name. He is in the now. He lives in the present - and desires you to live in the present seeking him always.

Grace and communion with the Lord occur in prayer. Seek always the grace of God on you. Do not hesitate in prayer - but in each moment call to the one who is wise. Seek the one who provides understanding. Reserve nothing from the one who loves you forever.

Now my soul is troubled, and what shall I say?

 Whoever serves me must follow me; and where I am, my servant also will be. My Father will honor the one who serves me.

“Now my soul is troubled, and what shall I say? ‘Father, save me from this hour’? No, it was for this very reason I came to this hour. Father, glorify your name!”

JOHN 12:26-28

Lord - through the trials of sorrow you have raised me high from my ashes. I thank you for my re-birth into all ways pleasing to my Lord. In sorrow you find the Lord - waiting - comforting - loving you and easing the pain. Do not get lost in sorrow as to lose your Lord. For he IS waiting for you. 

Give all things to your Lord. For you are his. Walk step for step - let your heartbeat become one breath. The Lord lives in you - the spirit - let the Lord reign.

It is in sorrow that the Lord's greatest work can be done in you. The weakest point of the flesh allows the greatest work of God. God is a choice not a force upon you. He has already chosen you - it is up to you to choose him. King Jesus was in anguish and deep sorrow to go to the cross - but it was the very purpose for his life. In the brokenness and weakness of Jesus at the cross - the spirit inside him was made perfect. Before Jesus breathed his last on the cross, he shouted for everyone to hear,  “Father, I entrust my spirit into your hands!"

It is this very spirit that you will have live inside of you when you accept Jesus as Lord and are baptized in his name. It is for this reason he lived and died and rose again - to prove he is God and allow you to have complete access to him at all times.

Remove the sinful nature

"Then Jesus said to the chief priests, the officers of the temple guard, and the elders, who had come for him, “Am I leading a rebellion, that you have come with swords and clubs? Every day I was with you in the temple courts, and you did not lay a hand on me. But this is your hour—when darkness reigns.”

LUKE 22:52-53

To grow and mature is to understand that sin is not acceptable. Jesus Christ DIED so you do not have to. He is OUR savior. Walk closely with your Lord and he will guide all of your ways to be pleasing to the father.

To choose sin after Christ is to be disobedient. To say I know and accept my Lord Jesus, but not follow the commands of Moses and the father is to lie. Though free from the law - choosing Christ will allow you to be obedient to the ways of God. It is faith in Jesus and following his way that removes the sinful nature. Walk closely with Jesus and your path becomes straight.

The reconciliation comes on the line of recognizing sin and turning from it because with God sin is a disobedient choice. Without God, sin is the only choice as without God there is nothing but death. In the acceptance of Jesus as Lord, you will be free from sin to choose to walk with the Lord all the days of your life. Choose Jesus in this day and be set free.

He was despised and rejected by mankind

"He was despised and rejected by mankind,

    a man of suffering, and familiar with pain.

Like one from whom people hide their faces

    he was despised, and we held him in low esteem."

ISAIAH 53:3

Sin kills life. Jesus died to save you. He saved you from having to live a life of sin. In Jesus death - he gave us life through choice. God or sin. The acceptance of whole heartedly believing and loving the Lord Jesus brings new life - the only true life.

This new life is without sin - but with God. The grief and sorrow of what was will fade as all you do begins to radiate light and life as you walk in the presence of the Lord. Jesus came to set us free by giving us a personal choice for deliverance. If sin rules inside you - there is no place for God in you. If Jesus rules inside you - there is no place for sin and it will be snuffed out. 

The very purpose of the Lord Jesus is to set you free from sin. He is the choice. The choice too not sin can only come from the power and grace of Jesus. He is the only choice for life. You do not have the power to not sin as a man without the spirit of God. Jesus is the answer. Jesus is the truth. Seek him and you will find him.

In the same way you judge others, you will be judged

"For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.

“Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye?"

MATTHEW 7:2-4

To judge other people is folly. The Lord Jesus asks that we pick up the cross and love for Christ. This is to give, to love, to shine brightly. Show the world Jesus lives. All good and loving actions and thoughts are from Jesus. No longer judge man. Darkness is over - the light is here. Shine brightly for your Lord Jesus as he did for you.

Those who call Jesus Lord and have been baptized with water in his name are born again from the inside with the spirit of God. In rebirth, the Lord has forgiven your sins and given you a new spirit - his spirit such that you will seek him always and he will guide you always. In this truth of rebirth - do not judge another for you are not the judge. We are judged from on high through the atonement of Christ Jesus - not on the line of sin for which we are all born into the world. So it is better to remain humble with your gaze set firmly in need of the Lord to keep your path straight then to be proud and wise in the ways of the world.

You are a chosen people

"But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light. Once you were not a people, but now you are the people of God; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy."

1 PETER 2:9-10

Turning to Jesus for life means giving all of you to him. Heart, mind and body. What you have been given belongs to God. For this - you must give away your life - for him. And the Lord will see you - come to you and lead you into all the marvelous works of your Lord. Then, all things good will be done in the name of Christ.

You are made perfect in the image of God. You are not made perfect in the image of man, but rather made to decay and go back the way of the earth as you were formed. To be made in the image of God, you must accept Jesus as the risen Lord, be baptized with water and turn from sin to be directed in every moment by the Holy Spirit that will live in you. 

After Job prayed for his friends, the Lord restored his fortunes...

"After Job had prayed for his friends, the Lord restored his fortunes and gave him twice as much as he had before. All his brothers and sisters and everyone who had known him before came and ate with him in his house. "

JOB 42:10-11

The task the Lord has given us as disciples is not to ask for ourselves. Our lives have been given and saved. No - it is to pray, love and help those that do not have the Spirit of Truth in them. Guide them to the Lord through Christ - like actions and truth in prayer. My job is to do all that I am asked. My Lord created me to do his work - save souls.

The power is in God. The purpose in you as a disciple is to be rightly aligned with the Lord. Jesus accomplished the atonement at the cross. There is no work for him left to do. It is finished. It is up to us - the disciples of Christ to live in the Spirit and allow him to do his good work in us. The power is in prayer to the Lord of heaven. The prayer of a disciple is the the power to heal, to love, to teach, to give and do what that Lord asks of you. Let the truth of Christ be revealed in you to save those for whom the Lord brings to you.

Feed my sheep

When they had finished eating, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon son of John, do you love me more than these?”

“Yes, Lord,” he said, “you know that I love you.”

Jesus said, “Feed my lambs.”

Again Jesus said, “Simon son of John, do you love me?”

He answered, “Yes, Lord, you know that I love you.”

Jesus said, “Take care of my sheep.”

The third time he said to him, “Simon son of John, do you love me?”

Peter was hurt because Jesus asked him the third time, “Do you love me?” He said, “Lord, you know all things; you know that I love you.”

Jesus said, “Feed my sheep. 

JOHN 21:15-17

In your death to sin you spring a new life of discipleship and devotion to Jesus Christ. Through that devotion death to sin is the fallen corn. In the death of a single stalk of corn you spring infinitely in seeding your rebirth in Christ.

In your rebirth the Lord asks his sheep to be fed. Give life in speaking the spirit inside all God's creation. This is discipleship. Do not be caught in the idea of Jesus Christ but rather rightly fixate yourself to the one who gives life. Many Christians can get stuck in the notion that once you know the name Jesus, the work is complete in you. To accept Jesus is to acknowledge him as Lord of the living, giver of salvation and forgiver of all sin. It is to accept that Jesus came because God so loved the world, he gave his only son, such that whoever believes in him will not die but have everlasting life. 

Jesus asks for devotion. He will give you life everlasting - but you must choose for his life to be lived in you because HE is the life. You cannot choose Jesus and continue in your own ways and ambitions. This is choosing the world. This is the truth of the world. This is the truth of Christ Jesus. 

Why did you doubt?

“Come,” he said. Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus. 

But when he saw the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, “Lord, save me!”

Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him. “You of little faith,” he said, “why did you doubt?”

MATTHEW 14:29-31

Be not afraid of what comes next, for with your Lord Jesus Christ, it will be exactly what your Lord desires. All good things come from Jesus - thoughts, love, kindness. Do not ignore your Lords desires of love and happiness.

To be reckless is to give all things to God. All fears - all moments - all agendas - all of your life - for it is the Lords. At once you hear the call of the Lord to you, abandon all previous understanding. For if the Lord of Heaven and all creation speaks to you what can he not do for you? With reckless abandon there is little time for thought or understanding just the willingness to do a thing.

Upon first hearing the call of the Lord, Peter immediately stepped out on the water in faith and walked. It was not until he noticed his surroundings that his understood belief of possibility shrank once more. Focus not on the outside obstacles of life, but on the truth of our Lord Jesus Christ. He came to set you free. Accept his free gift of salvation, love and hope and trust in him for he is the one that loves and is love.

Do not judge

“Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you."

MATTHEW 7:1-2

Understand that through being saved into Jesus Kingdom is to be absolutely forgiven. For you to judge another person after the Lord Jesus has given you a new life is not obedient. Live in love for love and for the love of Christ. He is the only savior.

To criticize our brothers and sisters in Christ is to be a hypocrite and hurts the body. For we are one body in Christ used for different purposes with different gifts of the Lord to serve him. He is judge over us and he calls us to love our neighbor. To love is not to hurt. To love is not to shame. To judge another is to claim superiority over another. It is in the feeling of superiority where the critical nature is found. You will be judged in the manner in which you judge. So in this truth it is better to remain humble and diligent in prayer for the Lord will work in another as he does you.  

You are my friends

"Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. You are my friends if you do what I command. I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you.... This is my command: Love each other"

JOHN 15:13-17

I shall honor my Lord Jesus for all my life. The spread of truth is my advocate for a life to work for and with Christ. Through Jesus and only Jesus can you do all things. Become free enough in your belief of Christ to be able to be filled with the spirit.

The specific call of Jesus is to lay down your life for him. Though that understanding is contrary to what you are taught in this world, which is to preserve self. The Lord does not ask you to die for him - for he died for you. It is in his death that you have life and only because of this truth. The perfect spirit that lived in Jesus during his life was given perfectly to his father on the cross so that you too will have access to the father in heaven. This is the truth. He rose again because the spirit of God lives eternally and cannot ever be snuffed out. This is true in you also as you seek the life of Jesus in you.

Make every effort to add...

"His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature, having escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires.

For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness;"

2 Peter 1:4-5

To accept the Lord is the beginning part of the new mission. Let the spirit guide your new habits of daily scripture, prayer and meditation. As you grow in your desire to learn about Jesus and your new life, the daily habits of immersion into your new life for Christ will replace your old ways of spending time. You will thirst for scripture.

In the great moments of the experiences of God we are ready to go and follow him at once. In the mundane daily life of routine and habit there is hardly a whisper of the call of God present. When you are reborn in Christ - you are reborn in Spirit. This is true. The spirit of the most high God - will be born in you. The spirit will be an infant inside you and grow and mature in the wisdom and understanding of the Lord as you fuel his spirit in you by faith and obedience to his word.

Be careful not to be caught only in the beautiful nature of the Lord as he is Love but to be diligent in pursuing his life inside you at all times - for this is the purpose of rebirth in you. When you do this with heartfelt diligence and faith it is the Lord himself that will live in you. You see God is a spirit of Love and he is who is he is.

Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me

"You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you. Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me."

JOHN 15:3-4

To accept Jesus is not simply accepting him and moving along. It is to contort your life to the ways of Christ. It is to pray and to seek to meditate with your Lord as often as possible. Jesus is first. He is sovereign over all aspects of life. Come to him. Stay with him and enjoy the comforts of spending quality time with your Lord and Savior. You will be equipped with all that you need through Christ.

You cannot produce good fruit separate from the Lord. It is him in you that is good. Every thought and constraint that separates you from the Lord must be brought to him. The Lord did no thing separate than what his father asked of him. We are to do the same with Jesus. The Holy Spirit of God desires to live in you and will live in you - feeding you wisdom, understanding, love, grace, hope and patience from heaven. It is in this unification of your mind, body and soul rightly fixated on Christ Jesus that the Lord's will can be done in you.

I will send you out to fish for people

"As Jesus walked beside the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and his brother Andrew casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen. “Come, follow me,” Jesus said, “and I will send you out to fish for people.” At once they left their nets and followed him."

MARK 1:16-18

Jesus is life. With the Lord all things happen. Let the doubt in your mind be expunged by your new life and love for Christ. Seek the Lord and your paths shall become straight.

The very thing God desires most is for you to give your will to him. He asks that you give your right to yourself to him. And in him, he will make you whole. He will work all things to provide you the life he has prepared for you. The world has not prepared a plan for your life. At once, when Jesus spoke to Simon and his brother Andrew, they left their old life and began a new life immediately. This is the calling of the saint - at once the Lord says, "Come, Follow me" - they go.

Come....Follow Me

"Turning around, Jesus saw them following and asked, “What do you want?”

They said, “Rabbi” (which means “Teacher”), “where are you staying?”

“Come,” he replied, “and you will see.”

So they went and saw where he was staying, and they spent that day with him. It was about four in the afternoon.... The first thing Andrew did was to find his brother Simon and tell him, “We have found the Messiah” (that is, the Christ). And he brought him to Jesus....

The next day Jesus decided to leave for Galilee. Finding Philip, he said to him, “Follow me.”

JOHN 1:38-43

Living a blameless, righteous and Holy life is important for the directional flow and love of Christ to be understood. After all has been given to Jesus, live a sin free lifestyle through the power of the Holy Spirit - not you. You can say no to sin and yes to Holiness - Yes to blamelessness and Yes to a complete life with your Lord and Savior.

The interest of self must be completely broken and set aside for you to come to Jesus with completeness. The disciple of Christ is not armed with pride, ego or self reliance, but rather cloaked in love and truth through faith and obedience to do exactly what the Lord asks. "Follow Me, "Come" - these are the words of Christ Jesus in choosing his disciples. The chosen say, "I am here" and walk with the Lord.

The stubborn flesh will proclaim, "I am not a saint." The life of a follower of Christ Jesus is absolutely called to be a saint. Is it too great of a task for the sovereign Lord? Those who say, they are not a saint and continue in sin, proclaim to God that he is not powerful enough to fulfill his word in them. This is blasphemy. Those who say they are too weak to follow God insult their creator. Come unto him and make no thing hidden. The Lord Jesus is Love and loves you. He is calling you into his comforting embrace.

Come to me, all who are weary and burdened

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”

MATTHEW 11:28-30

Committing your life to Jesus is not playing church. It is the full commitment to give everything to your Lord. Hold not one shred of human desire - and the Lord will reign peace unto you as you have not felt. Your path becomes straight. Your walk and prayers become Holy. The Lord is sovereign over everything as soon as you let Jesus remove you from the darkness and into his light.

"Come to me," the Lord says. He does not say do these works and activities then come to me. The Lord Jesus is the river of living water that never ceases from flowing. It is he alone and no other that is Lord of the living. To be alive - seek the Lord. To find the life the Lord as destined for you, you must lose your life and come unto him. For he is the way. It is in him that you will find the purpose of life that provides the fire and passion to live each day with joy and thanksgiving - for the Lord has overcome the world.

Knock and the door will be opened to you

“So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you."

LUKE 11:9

Seek the Lord not only with your mind but with the very fabric of your being. Let it all go. All of it. Give everything to the Lord - he will lead all your paths to his perfect will. Find the Lord all day each day. Repenting once a week without personal life change is not finding the Lord - it is justifying your life. Give your life entirely to your Lord.

To seek is to intentionally look. To find you must focus on the Lord. To ask is to know the Lord as your mighty counselor and helper. Desire God's will for your life. Set your heart and mind on his word and speak to him continuously in spirit. His will is for you to seek him in this way - he will fill you with his love, wisdom and understanding. In this new spiritual wisdom you will be set free from the limits of the human mind and open to the wise ways of the Lord which surpasses human understanding. 

Everyone who asks receives

 "For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened."

LUKE 11:10

To beg is to need - to need is a recognition that you are lacking something. Open it all up to God - let him in. The scriptures are truth - the spirit will be descended as you ask the Lord to guide you and fill you. Walk with the Lord and his spirit will fill you up.

You must ask to receive. The relationship is with the Lord and he is real. He desires nothing more than for you to seek him and call to him. His victory over death was for you - such that you could seek him, call to him and have him guide you into his will. 

No servant is greater than his master

"I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you. Very truly I tell you, no servant is greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him. Now that you know these things, you will be blessed if you do them."

JOHN 13:15-17

The Lords will be done. As you evolve all your thoughts and prayers to Jesus your mind opens to his ways. The Lord will lead you into all his ways as you get closer and closer to Jesus. Find quiet space - go there and breathe - meditate with the Lord. When you find quiet with desire of the heart - Jesus will find you. Go with him and perform his will.

When the Lord asks you to do something. The choice is yours. Do the thing for God and more will be given both in wisdom and understanding of the Lord Jesus - from the Lord Jesus. Choose not to do the thing for God and he will be silent with you as you have chosen to ignore God. The choice is yours. A life directed and lived for God with power from Heaven or a blind life led by sinful people and their misguided ways.

Whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing

"Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it."

JOHN 14:12-14

Through prayer, the Lord cleans my heart and mind. The Lord fills me full of the spirit such that in prayer my Lord removes all bad replacing my will with his most perfect and purposeful will. My creator, my God and my Lord Jesus are all things. 

My mind yearns and needs God for fuel to live, to breathe, to smile, to love, to teach. I am nothing without my Lord and Savior and he honors my servitude as I have committed my life to all aspects of him.

We are created to be used for God for his good purpose. Life in the flesh only occurs because of the atonement of the Lord Jesus Christ. In the truth of Christ - we find the truth of all life. Jesus rose from the dead and overcame the world. God is an everlasting spirit and a consuming fire. His everlasting Holy Spirit is the direct access to the power of heaven. Seek him first - seek him always and be one with the most high.

Work out your salvation with fear and trembling

"Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed—not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence—continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose."

PHILIPPIANS 2:12-13

As I give my life, my body, my spirit, all aspects of my being the spirit of God fills me. The Lord desires my mind and my heart. In all good works you will find Jesus. Lord continue to shape all thoughts and impurities to your will - for I submit all of my being for your purpose. Guide me in all ways pleasing to the Lord. Hold my hand steady and warm me with your embrace. Lord let my body and spirit be free for you - In Jesus name.

It is God in you that will perform the Lord's will. It is up to you to work out the Spirit of God into every aspect of your being. When you choose the Lord with abandon, faith and obedience it is he that is alive in you. It is he in you that will do his will. You see, the Holy Spirit is the power - and he will do the will of God to perfection. It is you who must submit with all your heart, mind and strength to be reconciled to King Jesus and he will fulfill his good purpose in you.

What can mere mortals do to me

"Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said,

“Never will I leave you;

    never will I forsake you.”

So we say with confidence,

“The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid.

    What can mere mortals do to me?”

HEBREWS 13:5-6

The Lord will take you all the way. Faith and patience is the lesson from the father. In learning to understand that the Lord will NEVER leave you is in taking you all the way to the brink of your typical hysteria before his solution is revealed. Taking you to the brink is where patience and TRUE faith lie.

God took Abraham to the brink - Abraham was prepared to sacrifice his son. The knife was almost to his throat - and God's love as Abrahams father and helper were revealed as it will for all.

The Lord himself is your advocate - your helper. No man can penetrate this relationship. The way God says it is - it is. Trust him - not man. The Lord is a constant flow of love and hope. There is no thing he cannot do or change to work his loving will into your life. You can say with absolute confidence, "The Lord is my helper."

Never will I leave you

"Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said,

“Never will I leave you;

    never will I forsake you.”

So we say with confidence,

“The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid.

    What can mere mortals do to me?”

HEBREWS 13:5-6

The Lord created me for a specific purpose. His purpose. Let Go - Both hands - both feet - full heart and open mind - let go. "Be still and know that I am God." The Lord is my guardian, my love, my protector, my hope, my dream. The Lord will not forsake thee. 

Give it all to him. Leave no shred of doubt. The Lord will pick you up and hold you upright. He shall never forsake me as I have been chosen by God to do all good works in Jesus name. Trust in Jesus. He is here to teach you, comfort you, love you, forgive you and guide you into his warm embrace for eternity. 

The Lord confides in those who fear him

"The Lord confides in those who fear him;

    he makes his covenant known to them."

PSALM 25:14

To be saved and filled with the love of Jesus with the Holy Spirit is to be reborn - changed - different. God is your creator. When you submit to his will through acceptance of Jesus Christ as your savior - your mind will be transposed to God's will. If what you hear in your mind is good - it comes from Jesus.

The Lord makes known to you his desires and direction. In being abandoned to Lord with a fearful reverence that he is the creator of all things, the ordinary choices in daily life become simple as he will direct each action and cause you to hesitate in the things not desired. When reconciled to the Lord, he will cause question within your spirit for actions he does not want you to do. Do not question the hesitation, rather, thank the Lord for guiding you.

The Lord shares with you his plans for your future and will work every thing in accordance to his will to ensure that the vision will come to pass. God is truth. Be faithful in Spirit and make every effort to rightly focus on the loving nature and friendship of King Jesus. He is the Lord.

Who...are those who fear the Lord?

"Who, then, are those who fear the Lord?

    He will instruct them in the ways they should choose."

PSALM 25:12

With each breath be consumed by your Lord as the conscious mind and the loving heart intersect in knowing the fact of God's creation is you. As you begin to be transformed by the Holy Spirit meditate in the truth of your existence. Your Lord created you to walk in the vein and flesh of Jesus Christ.

God is your shield, your Armour, your love. His comfort warms like a blanket. His swift touch can calm the biggest of waves. He will take care you of you.

Those who fear the Lord are consumed by the Lord. They are haunted by the all consuming presence of the Lord in their life. It is the state of being absolutely reconciled to the will of God such that disobedience to the Lord brings fear of an all consuming fire. In this state - there is no force that can penetrate the cover of God over you. If God is for us, who can be against us?

Son of man, can these bones live?

"The hand of the Lord was on me, and he brought me out by the Spirit of the Lord and set me in the middle of a valley; it was full of bones. He led me back and forth among them, and I saw a great many bones on the floor of the valley, bones that were very dry. He asked me, “Son of man, can these bones live?”

EZEKIAL 37:1-3

To believe is to believe. To pray and then say, What is our next task is silly when you are with God - working only for the Lord. Your prayers are heard - you are in service to the father and the father will take you into each task of each moment of each day.

God's will be done. Forget your earthly or human goals - take up your cross for Jesus and say forever more..."I know God!" It is easier to be caught up in doing something then to believe in something. The power of the Holy Spirit of God is provided to the believers of Christ by trusting through faith that Jesus is the Son of God and rose from the dead to sit at the right hand of God to speak on your behalf. Trust first in the Lord with all of your heart mind and strength. The spirit of God will renew your heart and mind into his ways.
