The ONE thing is that I KNOW The Lord has nothing but LOVE! God IS Love! Got children? Kids? What would you NOT do for them? What they are is a part of you!
God was on His ‘hands and knees’ when He created Man. THEN, God breathed The breath of Life into Man.
Hold up! On His hands and knees? Am I speaking out of turn? Think about this!
God fashions Adam from dust and places him in the Garden of Eden. Adam is told that he can eat freely of all the trees in the garden, except for a tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Subsequently, Eve is created from one of Adam’s ribs to be Adam’s companion.
Think about this! An artist, a creator gets down and dirty with his of her art! Mind you, God SPOKE and things came to be! The Sun
– Light, the Universe!, angels…by His Word!
What did God WORK on? AGAIN, let me blow your MIND! Man! Did God breathe into any of creation prior? He used the breath of His Spirit, The Word to create ALL! But, when it came to Creating something in His OWN image, God rolled up His sleeves and got BUSY! When He Who created saw it was AWESOME! God breathed into His Creation and there was Man!
Made different than every other being! Created for a purpose, Amen.
We could go on, but think…what happened? The very same passion that overwhelmed Satan to even consider unSeating God Who created Satan and all, the Unseen in the physical. Made him attempt to unseat a portion of God – Man!
We are not told of what battles in the spirit Adam fought. Important? NO! But the one that was waged AND won, explains life!
I am extremely keenly aware what this sounds like, but I will be honest. I was in bed and was led to sit up and write, this came out. No! I was not thinking of this prior!
The ONE thing is that I KNOW The Lord has nothing but AWESOME in store for us His children, Amen.
Good success, the FULL filling of our wants and needs, that we lack no good thing, that we are covered, shielded and blessed by God. The more I am in The Word,the more filled I am. My uncle Ajayi said yesterday that he sees visions. Why is this important? When I was in the coma he says he saw that I would be fine.
I was blessed to speak with him yesterday. Above, we CLAIM The Word! God is NOT Man that He would ever say what is not!
He knows the plans He has for us, to be in places of high esteem. I claim this in Jesus’ name, Amen.
For I know the plans I have for you,” declares The Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call on Me and come and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. You will seek Me and find Me when you seek Me with all your heart.
Jeremiah 29:11-13 (NIV)
Ask and you shall receive, Amen.
Keep knocking, Amen.
Stretch out your hand in faith AND receive! Receive what?
Now unto Him that is able to do exceeding abundantly ABOVE all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us.
Ephesians 3:20 (ASV)
WHAT power works in us? power. … Power comes from the Latin word potere, which means “to be able.” But things with power are much more than able — they’re able to exert a lot of force. “The powers that be” are those who hold authority, and “the power behind the throne” refers to the people who exert influence without being formally in charge.
We have, use it!
You have been given, utilize it!
BIG question. Do you have The Holy Spirit?
And the only way to be led by the Spirit is to follow God’s command to be filled by the Spirit (Ephesians 5:18). Interestingly, God contrasts being filled with the Spirit with being drunk. Somebody who is drunk with wine or alcohol is controlled by and consumed by alcohol. But somebody who is “drunk in the Spirit” is controlled and consumed by the Spirit, who helps us live holy lives.
How are we filled with the Spirit? The Holy Spirit entered you when you decided to give your life to Christ, to become a Christian. But we need to continually ask the Holy Spirit to lead us, to guide us, to help us do the things God wants us to do. When we’re growing as Christians, we should allow the Spirit to take control over more and more areas of our lives.
The Holy Spirit plays many roles. You can read about some of them in these passages: John 14:15-27, John 16:5-15, Romans 8:1-17, Galatians 5:16-26.
In John 14, for example, Jesus says the Holy Spirit will comfort us when we’re hurting. “I will not leave you as orphans,” Jesus says (14:18), promising that the Spirit will bring us peace (14:27).
Jesus also says the Spirit will help us recall the things we’ve learned about God (14:26)—which also means the Spirit will help us when we tell others about our faith.
In John 16, Jesus refers to the Spirit as a “Counselor” who will guide us in our everyday lives. One way he’ll guide us is by convicting us of sin (16:8). And this is really a good thing: God wants us to get rid of the things that displease him, and the only way to identify those things is to be convicted by the Spirit. The Spirit works through our conscience to make us aware of sin in our lives.
Romans 8 tells us the Spirit will help us stop sinning and do the things that please God. A verse later in that chapter also tells us that the Spirit helps us pray (8:26). We’ve all gone to God and said, “Lord, I’m just not sure how to pray or what to say.” The Holy Spirit helps us in those times, and actually intercedes for us, saying the prayers for us.
Now, the Holy Spirit can’t do all the work for us. We’re still responsible to do our part—especially to consistently read our Bibles and pray, asking the Spirit to show us the truth and teach us how to live.
It’s important to remember that the Spirit will not prompt us to do anything that goes against Scripture. People sometimes justify their actions by saying, “My conscience told me … ” We need to make sure we’re listening to the voice of the Holy Spirit, not the voice of our own desires. And we know which is which by checking this voice against the truth of God’s Word.
How can you tell if you’re being led by The Spirit? By the “fruit” of your life—your attitudes and actions. Galatians And the only way to be led by the Spirit is to follow God’s command to be filled by the Spirit (Ephesians 5:18). Interestingly, God contrasts being filled with the Spirit with being drunk. Somebody who is drunk with wine or alcohol is controlled by and consumed by alcohol. But somebody who is “drunk in the Spirit” is controlled and consumed by the Spirit, who helps us live holy lives.
