Eyes to God

 “Turn to me and be saved, all you ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is no other. 

By myself I have sworn, my mouth has uttered in all integrity

    a word that will not be revoked Before me every knee will bow;

    by me every tongue will swear. They will say of me, ‘In the Lord alone

    are deliverance and strength.’”

ISAIAH 45:22-24

The Lord is All in All. He is life - he is everything. Shake the mirage of the false realities man has created. Everything is passing away - the only truth - the only constant is Jesus - He is God. He is Lord of my life.

Look not at Jesus like a human friend but like the superhuman God of the universe that he is. Nothing is hard for him. He says, "Turn to me." Take everything to the Lord in faith. Follow his words and walk the path of uncertainty of your eyes knowing that what lies beyond the uncertain path of faith in Jesus is eternal life and a blessed life of abundance in the name of the Lord.

Focus not on the blessing but on obedience to God and a personal relationship to Jesus in which you share all things. Keep no thing private from your Lord. To build your trust you must come unto the Lord and have faith in him that he loves you and has a plan for you. Speak to Jesus in your spirit - discuss all things with him in clarity. 

Focus on Jesus - not the action of the day. Keep your heart and mind diligent in seeking counsel from God - in this - he will provide you patience and a path. 

New Birth in Christ

 "Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel."

ISAIAH 7:14

God is with us - Emmanuel - God in us - We are the temple - the house - the home for the most high God. Our Father brought us Jesus to show us this - the word is given to show validity to the Spirit of the most high God. The Lord Jesus truly lives in us - for us - as you walk in the rebirth of Christ Jesus in your own life.

Be obedient so he can completely manifest totally into your flesh - this is the promise of grace - the truth of Jesus Christ - The Savior of man - The king of the world - in eternity to everlasting to everlasting.

Jesus was a promise from God - and he came from God. He was placed inside a virgin by God - not by humans. He was from God not from the flesh of man. He came from heaven to teach us the way and through rebirth in him - you too shall be a new creation - not by human making - but by the spirit of God himself. 

The sign of a new birth in you is the allegiance for which you live. A new creation in Christ will do the will of Christ. He will work his truth and love out in you and through you for his good use.

Loyal To Christ

"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters." 

ROMANS 8:28-29

The test of loyalty comes in difficulty. Christians today are much like the Jewish people of old - they would not recognize the Lord among them due to his humility. Jesus did not live for praise - but for obedience to the father. It is in this way that we, today, must be.

The Lord will work in us exactly as he did Jesus - The father is the son through the Holy Spirit - Make yourself whole before the Lord and do as Jesus did for you. Give your life to him in the most difficult unimaginable situation. Call on Jesus in your pain and sorrow and he Will be there. Fear only disobedience to Christ - For he is the Only truth.

There are many misunderstandings about Jesus, but the greatest among those who call him Lord is that he can not do in you what he said he can and will do. Jesus lives today. Let him do his work in you.

Life in the Spirit

 "Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit. Let us not become conceited, provoking and envying each other."

GALATIANS 5:24-26

The natural way for God is to create a new you in him. To create something new - you must shed the old - old thoughts, feelings, hobbies, interests - finances. To create a brand new you in Jesus - all of the old you must pass away through faith and obedience to the Lord.

He will make his will known to you. He will share with you his path - through obedience you will walk his path and through this walk all is made new in the truth of Jesus Christ. There is nothing spiritual about money as a goal. Fall hard after Jesus - he is the only Truth.

The great task is to remove all self identification from you such that you only identify with the life of Jesus Christ. Any man that desires to be a disciple of Christ - must deny himself. In choosing Christ - you are choosing a life for which you must deny yourself - self desires. 

The natural life for man is of no benefit to God as it is self serving and leads to death. To say Jesus is Lord and not love your neighbor is not doing the Lords will. To be crucified in the flesh is to allow yourself to end your natural line of living and decision making and turn your heart and mind over to the Holy Spirit of Christ. The Holy Spirit is your advocate and will help you in all situations - speaking - teaching - guiding - directing and loving always.

The Covenant of Faith

  "I have set my rainbow in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth. Whenever I bring clouds over the earth and the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will remember my covenant between me and you and all living creatures of every kind. Never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all life."

GENESIS 9:13-15

Humans are the Lords creation. We are created for his purpose in a battle of faith. Humans are created in the Lords image - we must get rightly consecrated into the pleasing covenant of the Lord to be used by him and enjoy his heavenly blessings of peace, love and joy.

These are given over to you from the Lord as you give up your ways of self and man. He fills you full in his spirit as you dump the old habits and false beliefs. Jesus is the one and only way to salvation - Only through Jesus Christ are you set free.

God is looking for a personal relationship with you. He does not want to teach in the abstract or through methods that do not change your disposition. He made you so that through faith in his son Jesus Christ - his spirit  - the essence of himself - will live with you - inside you - as his Holy Temple. He speaks to you from the inside - within the spirit he provides through faith and Baptism.
