Over this past month or so,many things are changing in both our lives and our minds. We never stop learning, just as we never stop following! And from what each of us in Christ Jesus learns,stays.As His life is eternal,ours with him is also. Holy Spirit has always told me just how important it truly is for each of our relationships with him,to be and stay established in him, and his Word. The nature of our Lord and Savior has not changed, and what is better, cannot change!( heb 13:8,Titus 1:2)The battle believers has always been and will always be in our very own mind.
The flesh wishes to earn things given,it is just the flesh's nature. God is Good,because, God is good!( psalm 27:13) Very tough for people like me to accept this! Receiving something I did not work for? At Christmas time we all give gifts,so even though we receive them,we feel we have earned them as well, as no gift received goes without giving one. Grace is widely misunderstood, for so many reasons.grace without earning it? Grace with the freedom to sin?
One day a man was going to the store who had no money,he was hoping to work for the owner so he could then buy some food.But the store owner said, take what you need,here is my credit card,and for as long as you need to,use it as you will, for you and your family. You see I paid the price already for you,so that you will never fear,or worry!( matt 6:25-34) That every need you have is already meant,just believe,just trust me,just do one thing,and thank me.Grace reigns so that we come from victory,not to it!( rom 8:37-39) Grace is our bridge to our living Jesus,and knowing this, our mind is free on thinking about sin,and more on staying ever thankful to a God who's loves cannot be measured so easy by our own mind or even our own thoughts.Hence grace is not having the ability to sin,but rather to keep from sinning!
Victory in Jesus comes by depending upon Jesus,not sometimes,but daily! Some learn this faster then others,and some go through much because what they do not realize is they have always been fearful for something to go wrong all along. Another words expecting or believing in what they choose to fear.( job 3:25) When this happens we become broken,in both our emotions and feeling as well as in body.( job 17:1) And now, like Moses in the desert,God can prefect his true will for us,because we have been forced out of our sorry flesh!
When our flesh become ready for death,THEN!!!! LIFE can flow! Yes we have much to be taught,and from Holy Spirit teaching,we now as God's children have something we ourselfs can offer another without payment! (John 13:34)The very same love and grace to another,because WE KNOW what it is like to have such great need in our own life! And always being mindful of this( 1 thess 5:18) and thinking upon our Jesus rather then upon our problems( col 3:2)we in Christ Jesus now have a true purpose for ourselves as well as others! Every child of God's ministry!!! ( 2 cor 5:18-20!!!)
We do not count anymore another's wrongs,we appeal to them as servants to become as we are looking to become,reconciled to our Jesus! And our words should match our actions,and our actions many times can really take the place of any words! This nature of love comes from first receiving him!( 1 cor 13:4-8) And you know when this happens because your life is never the same again! Many may ask why does the Lord seem to not speak to me anymore? He used to a lot! Well he is speaking! But we have to be in a position to hear him as well! Abraham went 13 years after ah helping the Lord he thought by having a son named Ishmael, God waited till Abraham knew he could have no more children, then produced for him an Isaac! Only when we have become broken,when we know we can do no more,then Jesus says to us it is about time!
Now the clay is ready for the masters hand to form! ( Jeremiah 18:1-6!!) The Word of God is to replace our words and thoughts,it is not just a book to encourage!It is food to partake of, and eat daily,to become overflowing from us like living water!( john 6:63)( john 7:38) So that we have something from Jesus of great value!! HIM! We like John decease!( john 3:30-31) The flesh does not like to be ignored,it enjoys boasting,it always wants credit! But there is no peace in need,and there is not comfort, from want. Hence why we need to discipline our sorry flesh!( 1 cor 9:23-27!!) We did not come in flesh for the flesh,we came in the flesh like Jesus did to present him! To show others his light!( matt 5:14-16) For no city set upon a hill has light until Jesus brings forth his light unto that city!! US!!! IN HIM! So that verse 16 becomes a reality! Upon my Soul this truth has set me free,and upon your soul can you also become free forever,for grace and truth comes from the very same Father!( john 1:14,verse 17) The result?Freedom!! ( john 8:36!) Free to give,not concerned about receiving from others,free to love not worried if they will love you back,knowing who will always love you,when others may not! ( psalm 103:1-17!!) this is where my soul dwells,let yours to saints!! amen!
