Joy in Faith

 "If you keep my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commands and remain in his love. I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete. My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you."

JOHN 15:10-11

The joy of Jesus is the joy of love and its purity. As he pours his Spirit into you - accept him. Continually mold all of your ways of heart and mind into his loving care. Through this close fellowship you are brought to the Father.

God is a Spirit. You are his temple of choice should you openly request and pursue your Lord. In saying "yes" to your heavenly Father you say "no" to the world. In knowing Christ - you become his disciple and your kingdom work will begin.

The joy for Jesus is in relationship to Our Father in Heaven. His joy is measured by being in perfect harmony with God. This is the same joy he is speaking to us about. He is not speaking of Joy in the pursuit of happiness on a line that does not lead directly to God. 

The understanding of God and his immense love is the only joy to pursue. This joy is from Christ and can only be obtained through him while in pursuit of him. It is the very hope of God that we will seek him, pursue his will and come to the understanding that we are called to be his witnesses and boldly proclaim Jesus to all people and all nations.

Live for Christ

 "I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you. However, do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.”

LUKE 10:19-20

In today's busy world full of opinions and false information, people misrepresent God's plan for the western civilization democracy plan and they try to mesh them together so people subordinate like "Good Christians."

Busyness, diligence and personal usefulness have replaced faith, courage and heavenly love. Be free of the falsehoods of the self imposed slavery the government sells. Walk with Jesus - give all to him and you will know that all that you do is for God's purpose - not the worlds.

God has placed you where you are with a purpose. Jesus does not want us to rejoice for the act of service, but rather to rejoice for belonging to him. It is through him that we serve - so therefore, in the place that you are, no matter the location, rejoice in Jesus and thank him for being able to do all things through you. 

Jesus is the living water that gives life and has power and this same water will pour from you to the one that stands before you through The Holy Spirit as you do the will of God. There is no effort you can give to gain access to the living water of Christ - only devotion and faith to Jesus. It is Jesus himself that pours the water through you - this is his will.

Intimate Faith in Christ

 Then Jesus said, “Did I not tell you that if you believe, you will see the glory of God?

JOHN 11:40

Faith is going further then your human mind allows and then going further. It is saying, "No," to the world and "Yes," to Jesus. Without pushing yourself beyond your human capability of understanding, it is difficult to truly know Jesus. He is always with us. In us.

Jesus yearns for us to all leave these mirage lifestyles of success and accompany him with the walk of success he planned for us. It brings sublime heavenly confidence of faith and truth in knowing Jesus.

Faith is to be tested as that is what allows you to be strong for the long term. Tested faith is the good seed that takes deep root and springs forth a crop that will feed many. Testing faith is simply the gaining of truth through action for Christ. Jesus is the opposite of common sense. The way he asks us to be is not common - but supernatural.

To be supernatural for Christ, you must seek the power of The Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is provided by God and powered by your faith exercised in living the life Jesus has prepared for you. It is when you follow Jesus and believe that he died and rose again and sits at the right hand of God that you will see the glory of God. His name will stand before all names for Jesus is the King of the World and the author of life.

The Purpose of Prayer

 One day Jesus was praying in a certain place. When he finished, one of his disciples said to him, “Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples.

LUKE 11:1

In your prayers ask not what God can do for you, but what you can do when you walk with the Lord. We pray for our Lord to live within us, to counsel our minds, hearts and bodies. Ask the Lord to renew your heart and mind into only those things pleasing to him.

Pray for counsel with the Lord, for heavenly wisdom, strength and courage. Desire not things of this world - only the attributes from the heavens. In such, you will be renewed over and over until you walk step in step with Jesus.

The natural disposition of man does not lead to prayer. Those who call Jesus Lord and are baptized with water in the name of the Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit have the Son of God born into them. The Holy Spirit is nurtured and raised from within only by prayer, faith and obedience to Jesus - the Holy Word of God.

Self-sufficiency is the antithesis of a life with God as you rely on your own abilities and understanding to sustain your life. The life of the disciple is on the line that without Christ there is no life and therefore cling to the Word of God and The Way of Jesus through constant prayer. Prayer brings about a new change within you - to allow the light and disposition of the Lord to be seen in you. The obstacle for which you pray may not alter, but the understanding you gain and the wisdom you learn provide the way to navigate through the situation with the Lord as your guide.

Walk in the Light

 “You are going to have the light just a little while longer. Walk while you have the light, before darkness overtakes you. Whoever walks in the dark does not know where they are going. Believe in the light while you have the light, so that you may become children of light.”

JOHN 12:35-36 

When the Lord speaks - you must act in obedience. The more you choose your way or your knowledge of success and not that of Jesus - you drift further from the Lord's words. Lose the false realities of this world. All is not as it seems.

With Jesus not firmly planted at the head of the world stage is not right. Jesus didn't preach politics and spreading democracy. He taught love, healing and divine intervention. He already gave it to us. We must stake claim to our gifts now. Stop everything and call on Jesus.

The light is Jesus and there is no light without him. You must be moral and live without intentional sin to walk in the light. Obedience to Jesus is shown through love actions for others. The manifestation of the life of Christ in you is reflected in the love and light you provide to others through Jesus. Without love action coming out of you - how can the call of Jesus be fulfilled in you?

My Peace I Give You

 "But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you. Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid."

JOHN 14:26-27

Jesus knows the troubles, hardships and perils of this world. He lived it, conquered it and allows us to live with him in his peace. He didn't come to say - "Here, I conquered all - now you do it." No - He conquered life so we too can live.

Forsake this world and give your life to Jesus. He will renew your heart and mind into his heavenly comforts bringing peace and love. Through Jesus alone can we only ever truly say, "Let your heart not be troubled."

Jesus alone is the well for peace. To receive his peace, you must turn to him and seek his amazing grace. There are times where ignorance on a matter may allow temporary peace, but at once you are no longer ignorant a level of uneasiness and disturbance will rise from within. If there is a thing that keeps you from turning to the face of Jesus in the immediate time of distress, seek forgiveness from God. Pray to him and allow the words of your heart to be spoken to him. God is love and desires you to be made whole in him.

Relying on your own understanding to get through worry will not provide the peace of Christ. It is when you come unto the Lord Jesus Christ that you no longer worry because your face is set to him and he will prepare your way.

Friendship With Jesus

 "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."

JOHN 15:15

To lay down your life for Jesus is not a metaphor. Letting go of all that is desired and "coveted" in this world is how you draw closer to Jesus. He lives in the Spirit. You are literally allowed full access to Jesus by simply giving your spirit - your life - to him.

In humbleness he will be there, in sadness and confusion he will be there. After you accept him as savior - love him as one and then also do as the book of life teaches. Jesus is the Only Savior - and he already conquered the world.

There was no mundane aspect to the life of Jesus Christ. He never said, "I suppose I will follow God today and see how that will work out." Every aspect of the life of Jesus was consumed by the will of Our Father in Heaven. His only will was that of his father. Through Jesus, we have access to our perfect heavenly family. Jesus is both Lord and Brother to those that call him Savior and King. 

Jesus desires fellowship with you constantly through The Holy Spirit. Jesus initially selected a small group of people to teach "The Way." Jesus calls us to him freely. He does not impose his will or desires upon us but rather desires to teach us how to love one another. Pure love only comes from God as he is love. The only one that can teach love is King Jesus as that is "The Way" to eternal life in the kingdom of Heaven.

The Gift of Obedience

 “Which of you, if your son asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him!"

MATTHEW 7:9-11

Lord Jesus says that all must be given to him and in such time, you shall receive whatever you ask in his name. First you must get your base foundation set properly. That is - All that you currently are is what your creator has thus far allowed. Turn now to Jesus and say all that is mine is yours - this mind, body and heart - I give all to you in thanks.

Walk with Jesus. He will bring you to the Father. God is a Spirit - the very spirit of life that allows breath and love. Give all to whom it is due.

To be a child of God means that you call Jesus Christ both Lord and Brother. Jesus is The Son of God - sent by God - The Father to save mankind and also to allow you direct fellowship with your Father in Heaven through The Holy Spirit. To remain a child of God means that you choose "The Way" of Jesus in all that you do. It is when you walk in the path guided by the light of Jesus that your prayers are synced with the Will of God.

If you have a disobedient child that refuses instruction, do you reward them? No  - a loving parent will teach their child obedience and show them the way to be a good student so they may grow up in live productive lives. When the child becomes an obedient student and listens to instruction they perform the task at hand well and are rewarded. Is the same not true for your Heavenly Father such that you may receive the rewards he has already prepared for you? 

Jesus Christ is the Risen Lord. The Holy Spirit is alive because he is alive. Seek Jesus for your life and choose his way that he has prepared for you. Seek his word and be blessed through faithful obedience and be set free. Jesus is the truth about life. The word of God will stand forever. Jesus is the living word of God.

The Choice of Prayer

 "But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you." 

MATTHEW 6:6

God is life. The very essence. Allow the Father to renew your heart and mind in to all that is pleasing to him. Give all that you are to him - it is his anyway. Let yourself know that you are nothing more than dust made into flesh to canvass the Spirit of God in "his" image. 

All is Gods - Everything else is simply a false reality.

Our Father in heaven has never been seen for he is a Spirit of Love and a consuming fire. He works in each person separately as all of his people are made perfectly different in him for him.  So therefore, you must seek him in privacy with both a willing mind and heart. God desires to set you apart from those that do not choose him. 

To be set apart, the Lord will work with you and mold you based on the intention in your heart. God speaks quietly through the Holy Spirit in a still calm voice from within. God desires to have consistent private time with you, where you seek him in prayer and fellowship. It is in the private times with God, where faith is strengthened and poured in so everything you do in public before people shall be blessed by God.

Jesus is a light that can never be dulled. The Holy Spirit of Christ is this same light in you. Allow the light of King Jesus to be seen in you - seek the Lord for all wisdom and understanding. Seek the Lord such that his love will flow from you and be seen in you.

He Will Baptize with The Holy Spirit and Fire

 “I baptize you with water for repentance. But after me comes one who is more powerful than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire."

MATTHEW 3:11 

The Holy Ghost allows you to see. In this process of becoming clean through repentance for Jesus, you are literally transformed in the Spirit. The Spirit reveals what was previously unknown. 

The Spirit shows you the truth of the flesh and of the Spirit. As you are made whole through Jesus, your unworthiness and weakness is revealed - in this period - you gain heavenly strength as Jesus conquered all. To do such you must first become clean through Jesus. It is your new foundation of which all can be done.

Repentance is the moment at which you realize you are unworthy and weak. It is when you know you alone can go forward no more. The gate for which Jesus enters your life is the one of repentance and acceptance. If you have not reached the point of repentance to change to the way of Jesus - you have not decided to accept Jesus as Lord of your life. 

Unconscious In Christ

 “Blessed are the poor in spirit,

    for theirs is the kingdom of heaven."

MATTHEW 5:3

Through no works shall any man enter into the kingdom of God. Jesus is love. Jesus is pure, truth and hope. These are intangible inherent items given to you through Jesus Spirit. To the poor, you find inspiration. 

In this world it is only the "seen" that receives praise. In the Lords Kingdom, truly I say, it is the poor that know Jesus for they have nothing except Jesus. Lose not touch in what is truth. Jesus Christ is the only way, the truth and the life.

The life in Christ is only lived by allowing The Holy Spirit of Jesus to live inside you. It is not on the line of conscious decisions based on what we think Jesus might say or do. We do not have his disposition without His Spirit - we cannot be unconscious to the will of Christ without accepting his advocate to help. It is The power of The Holy Spirit of Christ that provides intersession directly with God.

The Lord Jesus Christ is a river of living water that never ceases to flow. Come unto Jesus and submit your will to his most perfect plan for you. Blessed are the poor in Spirit - for you have endured hardship and a difficult path. The weakness of man is required for God to be able to work in you. Is steel re-formed without being placed in the fire? No - to make it new, you must place it in the fire so that it can be shaped. This is the Truth of how God molds his people. We are of no use without being molded by the most high - for only he knows how he wants us to be and where he desires for us to go. Trust in Jesus and come unto his loving way and lean not on your own understanding.

I Will Give You Rest

 "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."

MATTHEW 11:28-29

To lose consciousness while having given all to Jesus is perfect. To no longer think, "what would Jesus do or say," but rather to just act in accordance of The Father's commands is divine oneness of The Spirit given to you.

It is your right to claim because Jesus conquered all. Let him also conquer you by trusting in him for all things. Fear not, you will not fall to the sword. Lord Jesus holds you safe - WE already won - we have simply yet to claim our prize.

Anything that enters your life that allows for the disintegration of Jesus in you must be brought before him at once. A self-conscious life will lead to self pity which is from the enemy, not from Christ. To choose Jesus is to choose his life to be lived in you - not your own. To demand understanding and forgiveness from another person is on the line of self-justification / self-pity - not the love of Jesus.

It is the consciousness of Christ within that is necessary to do the will of Jesus. We are children of God through relationship and acceptance of Christ Jesus - not through any other means. In this - your Heavenly Father desires you to know him as a loving Father that raises his kids and not simply the Creator of life in the abstract. 

Come to Me

 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened..."

MATTHEW 11:28

In your walk with Christ, understand he wants you completely. No more - "maybe's" or I'll "look into Jesus." Jesus already conquered this place. It is our supreme obligation to serve Jesus completely. In such we claim Heaven on Earth in our timing. It is available to be taken right now.

Jesus lives in us, as we accept this truth - we have eternity, peace, no fear, love, safety. Mend the mind God gave you directly and succinctly with the will of Jesus and you will become one flesh through The Spirit.

The Lord desires you to live full in him - therefore, self-consciousness is the antithesis of The Way of Jesus. Jesus asks that you rest not on your own understanding, but rather on his truth about life. Self-consciousness creates a gap between you and Jesus as it separates your mind from his mind. Jesus asks that you become one with him in mind, body, spirit and soul. At the moment self-realization creeps into your mind - pray in the Spirit to Jesus to renew your mind into his loving, peaceful and calm way. This is the practice of renewing your mind by faith in the Spirit of Jesus Christ.

Sorrow Within the Call

 When he heard this, he became very sad, because he was very wealthy. Jesus looked at him and said, “How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of God! Indeed, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.”

LUKE 18:23-25

Jesus is specific. You are his - To choose to be with Jesus is to give all that is asked - then you will say thank you Lord for blessing me. To be a disciple of Christ is to be with the most high. It is the highest honor and purpose of living. There is no life without Jesus. He conquered the world, in such truth, you then owe Jesus your life. In doing so - you will find peace, joy, truth, love and your perfect purpose.

The ask of Jesus is hard but not complicated. The rich man understood clearly what Jesus asked him to do, but he could not bring himself to do the thing the Lord asked. It is the personal will within that must be changed into his will. This occurs from the inside through The Holy Spirit by faith and obedience. The difficult ask by Jesus completed by Faith in full obedience will bring you heavenly rewards. It will unlock The Heavenly Spirit within you and reveal the deep love of Christ with a new understanding - a new awakening.

The Calling of Christ

 When Jesus heard this, he said to him, “You still lack one thing. Sell everything you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.” When he heard this, he became very sad, because he was very wealthy. Jesus looked at him and said, “How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of God! 

LUKE 18:22-24

Lord Jesus demands our attention - All of us individually so that we come together properly as one. All serving his / her perfect life purpose as they were created. Give to God what is his. This is all of you. Your body is created to house the temple for God. Simply put.

All those that accept Jesus are temples of God created from dust. He sees through your eyes and hears through your ears. You are created to give all to God to do as your Lord asks you to do. Eternal life and heavenly rewards await.

Jesus is clear and quite simple. He did not live his life by emotion but only for teaching the truth of the way to eternal life. In this, his message is abrupt, but clear - if there is a thing - that gets in between you and him - remove the thing and come to him - King Jesus. He is The Way. Money is a false God to many - an idol that creates idols. Salvation and life in Jesus Christ are free of charge and will provide eternal rewards.

He Calls His Own Sheep by Name

 "The one who enters by the gate is the shepherd of the sheep. The gatekeeper opens the gate for him, and the sheep listen to his voice. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out."

JOHN 10:2-3

To know Jesus is to love your neighbor. The intimacy of Christ is not the same as flesh to flesh. It is much much deeper. To know Jesus is to know the Spirit of truth. The Father sent Jesus to save the world - and he did. He conquered the world and its evil. 

To know Jesus is to know love - my cup overflows with abundance in the basking of joy that comes in the truth and love of Jesus. The Father is the Son through The Holy Spirit. Let peace and love reign supreme from the creation God has given you.

Jesus calls his sheep by name. He knows you - personally - from the inside. The sheep of Christ are those who choose Jesus as Lord - but also call him brother. Intimacy with Jesus is found within the Spirit provided through Baptism of water and acknowledging him as Lord. Speak to him from within and digest his word. 

The knowledge of Christ is one thing - the experience of a personal relationship with Jesus is overwhelming with love, grace, hope and truth. It is in the personal experience of Jesus where you come to know him as your loving brother. Experience a personal relationship with Jesus. He knows your name and he is calling to you. Be still and say, "I am here."

You Must be Born Again

 “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit. Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit. You should not be surprised at my saying, ‘You must be born again.’ 

JOHN 3:5-7

The acceptance of Jesus is a truth acceptance of a new life. When your mind, body and Spirit accept Jesus completely - your new birth begins. In this acceptance, a spiritual makeover takes place. The heart and mind become renewed into the full digestion of Christ.

In such time, sinning should seize. Not due to mental acts of discipline but rather by divine intersession of the heavenly spirit given by your Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. He Lives!

The new life of Christ is manifested in you through conscious choice and repentance. The new life in you belongs to Jesus and is only given by Jesus - there is no life received on any other line or from any human. To be born again means that you see Jesus - you see his truth and life and have decided to go his way.

Do Not Lose Heart

“My son, do not make light of the Lord’s discipline,

    and do not lose heart when he rebukes you,

 because the Lord disciplines the one he loves,

    and he chastens everyone he accepts as his son.” 

HEBREWS 12:5-6

Let not your fellowship with the Spirit be broken by human weakness. You are frail. God is strong. As the Lord sanctifies you - things in your life will change - some changes will seem like punishments. Being completely sanctified by the Spirit is the willingness to take the journey to the unknown with God.

He will work changes in your heart and mind such that you will be no more and the Spirit of God will magnify through your Temple. Sanctification often times means the loss of your current worldly desires. Fear not, the treasures of heaven have already been given.

Sanctification comes from God and it falls on the line of his image and his way for you. You cannot sanctify yourself as you are not your creator and you cannot fathom the ways of the one who made you. The Lord calls you to be a light - to be this light  -you must shine brightly and be clean before the Lord. 

Do not sulk before the Lord in discontent with the willing thought that Jesus cannot do in you what he said he will. The spirit of God can do all things in you perfectly as you have faith in him to be patient in being molded. The Lord does not desire you to seek your own way and go it alone - but rather to "follow me" and be my disciple. Trust in the truth of Jesus. 

Do Not Quench The Spirit

 "Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. Do not quench the Spirit." 

1 THESSALONIANS 5:16-19

When the spirit checks you, stop. Get straight at that moment with your personal relationship. Re-establish the bond, close the gap and come to Jesus. To fix you into being in harmony with God, you must be in obedience to allow him to fix your life into his most perfect plan.

Fear not what you do not know because you know the Lord and the Lord never changes. He is the rock of love given to anyone who accepts him, and he loves you more than any human could ever desire.

The spirit is the life within from on high. The Lord speaks to you from within in a quiet still voice. You cannot hear his voice in disobedience as you have chosen not to listen to his direction. Do not quench the spirit of Christ - he is your life source.

If you hear the call within repeatedly and choose to not do thing you are asked you will quench the Spirit. The purpose of The Holy Spirit within is to provide you with God himself as your internal speaking guide of life without need for any other person. This is why Jesus gave his spirit at the cross. This was the victory.

Be alert within your Spirit such that you do not grieve The Holy Spirit. Practice discernment of voice from within and seek Jesus always. Be patient, still and calm and wait for his still calm voice from within.

Faith of Experience

 And behold, there arose a great storm on the sea, so that the boat was being swamped by the waves; but he was asleep. And they went and woke him, saying, “Save us, Lord; we are perishing.” And he said to them, “Why are you afraid, O you of little faith?” Then he rose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm.

MATTHEW 8:24-26

God has such faith in us who choose him that when times get difficult he has wired us all to desire to call him - the most high - for help. He puts his trust in you knowing that you will come to him. 

As the world has grown materially, God has been pushed on the outside as man has tried to solve hunger, war, money and jobs. God is working for us to come to him right now.

Seek him and he will be there. He is always here.

The Lord expects us to take up his disposition - the authority of faith in action. Confidence in God is knowing that in the difficult and uncontrollable circumstance - he is there - and he will see you through. Through The Holy Spirit of Christ we are called to be reliable in faith in the storm.

Elijah went up to Heaven in a Whirlwind

As they were walking along and talking together, suddenly a chariot of fire and horses of fire appeared and separated the two of them, and Elijah went up to heaven in a whirlwind. Elisha saw this and cried out, “My father! My father! The chariots and horsemen of Israel!” And Elisha saw him no more.

2 KINGS 2:11-12

As you become purified into the life and spirit of Jesus, stand tall. Your quest is to have learned to change the world - Jesus brings us to a perfect place of oneness and then lets us take over as he has made us right in his image with his teaching.

God is with you when he calls you - he must keep you close at hand to train and hold you up during the trials in the wilderness.

The experience of God is one that you must have on your own. You may have a leader such as Elijah that has demonstrated to you great faith and devotion - but your journey with Christ does not come through "Elijah" but from your experience alone. 

There will be experiences that Jesus asks you to go alone - remain faithful in obedience and allow God to reveal his truth to you. It is your initiative in faith that brings about the truths of God within you.

The will of the Saint

  For it is time for judgment to begin with God’s household; and if it begins with us, what will the outcome be for those who do not obey the gospel of God? And,

“If it is hard for the righteous to be saved, what will become of the ungodly and the sinner?”

 So then, those who suffer according to God’s will should commit themselves to their faithful Creator and continue to do good.

1 PETER 4:17-19

By accepting Jesus, you accept the lessons, teachings, trials, the new heavenly peace, love, guidance, eternity and freedom. To be with Jesus is to be rejoiceful, loving, thankful and blessed.

Be not afraid of what you do not know, be peaceful in knowing God has your beautiful heart softly in his hands - holding you - loving you and keeping you just for the right time.

To suffer for Christ is to choose God's will. It is not the suffering you choose - but rather the will of God to be done in you.  In this choice for God - you choose his way above your own way. Jesus is clear that self-pity is from the devil. Therefore, commit to what is good and pure in him.

Jesus never vindicated himself and he never tried. He did not live on the line of sympathy from people because people did not know why he was here. The purpose of Jesus is for the kingdom of heaven - not the earth. The purpose of The Holy Spirit in you is also for the kingdom of Heaven - and Jesus already has your best use planned and the way for you to go.

I knew that you always hear me

  Then Jesus looked up and said, “Father, I thank you that you have heard me. I knew that you always hear me, but I said this for the benefit of the people standing here, that they may believe that you sent me.”

JOHN 11:41-42

As you slowly become one with The Father through the spirit given in Lord Jesus triumph, the spirit inside renews your heart and mind to all things pleasing to God. Just be free and let go. 

You will begin praying in all moments in your heart for the Lord and he will transfigure you into a renewal that exists out of this world and opens up the heavens. As you live in this world - you start to feel the spirit more and realize you are the temple for God as you allow Jesus to walk step in step.

Jesus had only the mind of his father within his spirit - as they are one - therefore his father always heard his prayers. Our father in heaven always hears the prayers of the Son of God. This is the reason Jesus went to the cross - to give us the same access to our heavenly father through his spirit. To be one with Jesus is to be one with our Heavenly Father.

This is the meaning of "Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give you." You see - In that day - it is he  - Christ Jesus through The Holy Spirit that will be praying inside of you - for you will be one with The Son - and The Son is one with The Father.

The Holy Spirit will come upon you

 “The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the holy one to be born will be called the Son of God."

Luke 1:35

As you become one with the spirit of Jesus - the father will pull you closer and closer. As your heart and mind become renewed daily in your walk with Christ enjoy experiencing a new peace - a calmness within that is only heavenly.

The father renews you through the spirit of life and love given in triumph at the cross. Accept the makeover works from Jesus.

The truth of the birth of Jesus born to Mary, whom was a virgin, is the same as it is with you. In accepting Jesus as Lord and being baptized with water in his name - through your faith in him - he will provide to you his Holy Spirit - himself in you. This is a miracle performed by God for his will to be done.

The Holy Spirit is provided to you by God through faith - and its power source is King Jesus. When you are in communion with Jesus it is his spirit for which you communicate through - it is within you. There is no thing Jesus ever did or said without his Father speaking and working through him by The Holy Spirit. They are one - and Jesus desires you to be one with him as he was with the father.

The search for Jesus

 “Why were you searching for me?” he asked. “Didn’t you know I had to be in my Father’s house?”But they did not understand what he was saying to them.

LUKE 2:49-50

Jesus knew from his early childhood he was responsible for doing his father's work. It is our responsibility to do as he asks - regardless of your life ordeal. I assure you the Lord will not leave you. Turn all things to God. 

He is here - living inside you - waiting to ignite the spirit of love that is rightfully yours - given in Jesus triumph at the cross to all those people that say - Jesus is Lord - risen to be my savior. Then become his student.

Jesus had to be doing his father's will as the spirit inside of him came from the father. Those who call Jesus Lord and are reborn in baptism of The Holy Spirit have the same access to the full spirit of God inside of you. This is the the truth of The Holy Spirit. 

There is one God and one Holy Spirit. There is one Jesus that came - died - and rose again and sits at the right hand of God. There is one name above all others - and there is one name that will set you free. Be diligent in seeking the will of Christ in you as you are his most special possession.

In that day...

 “Though I have been speaking figuratively, a time is coming when I will no longer use this kind of language but will tell you plainly about my Father. In that day you will ask in my name. I am not saying that I will ask the Father on your behalf. No, the Father himself loves you because you have loved me and have believed that I came from God."

JOHN 16:25-27

The part of saying, - "At that day ye shall ask in my name." - is to get to a point of absolute certainty that you are one with the spirit of Jesus. Fear not of what you feel may be an unanswered prayer and realize you are in training.

God's on the job training is the wilderness of life given to navigate through the enemy with the power of Christ. You will not fall - the Lord has you. Give all fears to God and welcome Jesus for your work - he awaits your arrival.

The purpose of prayer is simply for a faithful devotion and trust in God to guide you. It is you - by faith - speaking to God - for life. In the day - you are one with The Holy Spirit - the Lord's life will be seen in you. There will be no discernible quality that separates you from Jesus - as his life will be lived in you. 

The Way of The Lord

“We are going up to Jerusalem, and everything that is written by the prophets about the Son of Man will be fulfilled. He will be delivered over to the Gentiles. They will mock him, insult him and spit on him; they will flog him and kill him. On the third day he will rise again.” The disciples did not understand any of this. Its meaning was hidden from them, and they did not know what he was talking about.

LUKE: 18:31-34

In following Jesus - just go for it. Give it all. Jesus is our example of success. Love him as he loves you. He let his spirit of triumph be given to you in love at the cross. It is where all of us were born.

In walking in complete harmony with Jesus, I know him. He is kind, so loving, courageous and complete. The Lord awaits your renewal - when you turn to him in love and thanks - you bless him with more power in this world. Lets all love him as much as we can!

The life of Jesus to human eyes was a failure. He took his disciples to watch him die. A tragic event to his loving followers - breaking their hearts. However, they had yet to receive the understanding of God to know that his way was triumphant. The purpose of God is not the purpose of man. The understanding of God is not inside man - but resides with The Holy Spirit of God and his given to his followers as the Lord decides.

It is our specific calling to seek communion with Jesus always. We are in his way as we communicate with him, walk with him and are obedient to him. We are with him in prayer and meditation of his word. In this - trust not the appearance of your circumstance but the love of Christ in your heart. It is there you will find him and he will reveal himself to you. Jesus is the Truth of The Way to Eternal Life.

Relationship with Christ

"Jesus took the Twelve aside and told them..."

LUKE 18:31

God is the very essence of life. Jesus gave us his spirit at the cross in triumph as he defeated the world. So therefore, you can live through Jesus for life. Seek Jesus, your Lord in all endeavors. He is with you always - seek him. 

The closer you get to seeking him - the more you feel his love and spirit. The more prayers are answered and more people will be drawn to God in obedience for his great love.

Jesus "took" the twelve aside. He chose you for the purpose of using you for his work. Jesus himself claims you and you have been called -  not because of experience, money, influence or any other such human value. No - he chose you because you were empty and therefore can be filled. It is God in you that is required for the work of Jesus to be done. For God to take hold of you from the inside - you must not maintain a line of self-fulfilling work - as that is your will.

It is your direct personal relationship to Jesus that fills you with the spiritual gifts the Lord has prepared for you. The power is in Christ - the faith and obedience for the task are up to you.

Compelled by God

 Jesus took the Twelve aside and told them, “We are going up to Jerusalem, and everything that is written by the prophets about the Son of Man will be fulfilled."

LUKE 18:31

The beauty of God is that his path is continual. It never ends because it is for eternity. Jesus sought the Father in all he did - so must we as children of God. Be not afraid of the unknown for the unknown is known with Jesus.

He conquered the world and offers his spirit to anyone that chooses the same path to the Father. Accept Jesus as Lord and Savior and he walks with you - Always.

Jerusalem was the final destination for Jesus. The point of Jerusalem was for Jesus to fulfill his mission for his Father. His face was set to this purpose without regard to the world or its influences. God knows the end from the beginning - we do not. We cannot fathom the work of God or the way in which he asks us to be molded because we do not see the final picture as he does. You see - God knows the end - so all things are made in accordance for the will of God to be fulfilled and only he knows the finished work.

I have overcome the world

“Do you now believe?” Jesus replied. “A time is coming and in fact has come when you will be scattered, each to your own home. You will leave me all alone. Yet I am not alone, for my Father is with me. “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”

JOHN 16:31-33

Turning to Jesus for salvation does not mean you gain an instant pot of Gold. It means you will face difficulty but it will not be as difficult for you because the spirit of Jesus will give you great - God-like strength.

Through the trials - you gain strength, purity, fearlessness and you get immense peace and comfort because Jesus already overcame the world. So I know I can never actually fail completely because my Lord Jesus Christ saves me every single time.

It is misunderstood that choosing Christ is deliverance from trouble. It is truth that Jesus is deliverance while in trouble. All children of God will face trouble as spoken by the Lord - and God always provides what is needed in the moment. He does not give you tomorrows spiritual strength today.

It is the strain of hardship that creates spiritual strength within. Without the strain there is no gain. Refinement of character and spiritual growth occur in the fire of faith. Take heart in the fact that there is no thing to great for Jesus to see you through - he has overcome the world and he defied death to be your guide.

The Way of Patience

After Jesus had finished instructing his twelve disciples, he went on from there to teach and preach in the towns of Galilee.

MATTHEW 11:1

Don't lose faith when you feel you are about to receive an answer that you don't get. Jesus is with you - teaching with abundant patience to be certain you are dependent in your life at all times on him.

Lose your mind and prayer of despair. The Lord loves you - he is guiding you to alertness into the spirit world to prepare his students for battle against the evil one.

Be weary of creating certainties of how God will respond in advance but rather remain focused on him throughout. The habit of you thinking for God will leave him out of the situation. God works in patience, faith and obedience. He prepares the way and asks you to follow him at once the preparations are complete.

Wait for the Lord with peaceful patience. He is not constrained to human understanding or time - which is why Jesus requires you to have faith in him. Angst and anxiety are rooted in being unsettled. Choose Peace to take with you on the way. Bring Love along as well. Be certain to wear your belt of Wisdom and Understanding for the journey as it will be required. These supplies are all provided by The Holy Spirit in patience and prayer with the Lord Jesus Christ. The Lord works where you are sent to wait.
