I know we are not to be anxious, and worrisome, concerning circumstances. We are to put our trust in our source, which is our Father. He is the source of all life. There is no life outside of him. This we can embrace as our means for existing here on earth. When I say means of existing, I am stating a fact, there is no other way, or means, we can depend on for our needs for life.
It is the Devine mind of our Father that is the cause, and effect, of all things.
Absolutely nothing can happen outside of God’s will, and permission. “I am first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God.” Isa 44: 6 He is perfect in power, wisdom, and goodness; the creator and ruler of the universe. He is I Am, Almighty, Everlasting, Unchangeable , He is a personal God. This my friend brings us to the fact, He exist in man, and man, lives, moves, and has his being in God. He works in us both to will, and do, His own good pleasure. Do you realize we are the Body of Christ. Jesus said “I and my Father are one” He knew who He was in the Father, and who the Father was in Him. This is a fact we are to embrace and confess “I and my Father are one.” It is realizing that in self, we can do nothing. However in Christ, we can do all things, all things belong to us, and He will not withhold, any good thing from us.
The church of this day has failed to understand, we are not separated form the Father, He abides in us, You and I, always has, and always will. We are to disannul, “cancel out” all the old fables, and religious doctrines, we were taught. We were told we were lost, and separated from our Father. This is an untruth, that is still being taught in the churches today. When a child is born, he/she is taught they are a sinner, and separated from God. In order for them to get back to the Father, they must be born again according to the rules of what ever organization they attend. The Ministry today has failed to understand what being born again means. You have more than likely heard it all your life, You must confess your sins and repent and then you are born again, (wrong.) The majority of individuals who take this stand do, experience a change in their lives. Many go on to a life of service; into the ministry, as pastors, teachers, Evangelists, etc, yet they have never truly experienced the spiritual rebirth; of being “born again.”
In Matthew 19 when Jesus was asked, “What must I do to have eternal Life?”, he replied, “Keep the commandments”; honor thy father and thy mother and love thy neighbor as thyself. The Disciples ask Jesus “Who then can be saved?” “With men it is impossible”, he said. You cannot enter the Kingdom of God as flesh and blood! Why? Because it is a state of mind! Being born again is knowing who you are in the Father, and who the Father is in you. God is your reality; your true identity. It is a state of knowing that the I within you is the Father. For this reason He said “I and the Father are One!” We must come to the understanding we are not who we have been taught from childhood we were, but rather know we are the manifestation of God on earth. God is the only life there is. He gives life to all things. A tree, growing is God life manifested as a tree. Anything with life is manifesting God life. So being taught, you are simply a man waiting to die, and go to some far off heaven, if you are good, or a burning hell, if you are bad, is not Scriptural. We are here to manifest our Father, and be one with Him. Just as Jesus is one with the Father. Being taught by your parents, then the Church, That you are a human separated from God. And there is only one way you can get back to him. Live as a man, and die as a man, and just maybe you will make it in. Jesus was God with us, He had a flesh, bone, blood, body, never the less He was God manifested in man. The same Spirit Life of Jesus is the Spirit life living in you and I. The same oneness Jesus had with the Father we have also. I must say once again, “ We lost our identity, and have been taught to believe that we are something we are not.” So now we must lay down all the lies, and traditions, we've been taught, and be quickened to things we have forgotten. Be reconciled back to our true identity, and our oneness with the Father. Scripture teaches us “We shall know the truth, and the truth will make us free.” We will never know the truth outside of Christ. The truth is in Christ, in order to know the truth you must be in Christ. Christ and the Father are one, We, you, and I, are complete in Christ. Our life is in Christ. We are chosen in Him, before the foundation of the world. His life is God life. Only when we realize this, only when we choose to die to self, only when we realize that ‘our’ bodies, are His Body His temple. Eph. 4:14-15 We are no longer to be children, tossed here and there by waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, by craftiness in deceitful scheming. But speaking the truth, we are to grow up in all aspects into Him who is the head, even Christ.
I also want to point out a Scripture in Eph. 1: 13 In Him, you also, after listening to the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation having also believed, you were sealed in Him with the Holy Spirit of promise.
This enlightens us to the fact, we must listen to the message of truth. It is the gospel of your salvation. You hear it you believe it. This is what brings us to the light of Christ within. It isn’t following some form or idea of how it should be done. It is a personal experience and it can take place no matter where you are. You listen to the Gospel believe it and the Holy Spirit of promise will be given you. This will cause a change in your walk. It isn’t a fact of Christ coming in you. It is awakening to the reality He is in you. He is your source of life. He is “the light that lights every man that comes to the world.” Immediately after being awaken to the fact Christ is in you. You will begin to die out to self. The old life style will begin to loose it hold on you. The materialistic things of the world become less important. A hunger awakens in your belly, to know more of this Christ. I know there are those who followed after the forms of man. Going through the motions as required by the organizations. Saying Jesus come into my heart. Now you are saved, they tell you. However they still teach you of a far away God who will one day come for you. As long as you are searching out in the world for answers, you will not find the satisfaction of salvation. You must look to the Christ within. Be still before Him, As I often remind the reader “take no thought” Be very still and hear the Spirit in the depth of your being. He will guide you into all truths. Never leave you, or forsake you. He has, and will always be with you. You can trust Him for all things. I am not against asking Jesus to come into your heart, I am saying you are asking Him to do something He has already done. We are here to be a manifestation of Him in the earth. We are here because, it is the will of our Father that we be here. It was according to His will and purpose we were born. Every one of us has a purpose for being here. Our Father is not a respecter of persons. His love is unconditional for us all. His plan and purpose will not be changed. He is in control of all circumstances. Those we consider bad, and those we consider good. As for me I say Amen to His will, I know in whom I believe.
