Service to Christ

  "Now I rejoice in what I am suffering for you, and I fill up in my flesh what is still lacking in regard to Christ’s afflictions, for the sake of his body, which is the church. I have become its servant by the commission God gave me to present to you the word of God in its fullness."

COLOSSIANS 1:24-25

Our God is a living God. Our father is love - He is a spirit. As we accept Jesus as a man who was born with the spirit of the most high God - we know he lived and walked as a man - died and rose again. God is a living spirit that is accepted into your human body through Jesus Christ. Thus, your new life of serving the Lord takes over.

In living this new life for Jesus - he lives in us using our bodies as his temples. In each of us - his magnificent spirit lives into eternity and all is possible.

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.
