Toward life we go! Amen, Yes and Amen!
To die to the flesh...oh, how we so often have the wrong perception in the flesh or a lie behind the stronghold of spirit, rooted in the flesh of what this death looks like. God is life. He is good. It's not grim; though painful; but not the kind of pain it sounds like...it's the kind of a continual spiritual; ongoing understanding. It's a dying to mental ways and walking toward the ways of the Spirit. God speaks to Spirit. He wants release for you. It hurts mostly because there in those moments of time God's Spirit imparts to you by way of a vessel through a person or by miraculous faculty (that manifests) in several different ways the wisdom that is momumental of what you are going through in that moment. In only lasts but a day because joy comes in the morning. It's bringing the alignment. It brings humility to your heart that inadvertantly, with no help from flesh, speaks volumes of love and generosity to others of God's glory.
I will share these. May it bless you in the walk toward love and goodness so longed to be imparted unto you.
Balance- Psalm 40:2 says...He also brought me up out of a horrible pit, Out of he miry clay, And set my feet upon a rock, And established my steps. and...
Psalm 26:12 says...My foot stands in an even place; In the congregations I will bless the Lord.
Encouragement for you- Isaiah 9:2-3 says this...The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light; Those who dwelt in the land of the shadow of death, Upon them a light has shined. You have multiplied the nation And increased its joy; They rejoice before before You According to the joy of the harvest, As men rejoice when they divide the spoil....and v. 6 goes on to speak of the Prince of Peace...of which we have just celebrated His birth. With that I will continue to say this...Paul says later that he wishes that the one who oppress you would even cut themselves off. Know how much you are dearly and righteously loved! Let the words blow up and off this screen and flow through you like the wine of the Spirit.
Isaiah 30:21-23 says...Your ears shall hear a word behind you saying, "This is the way, walk in it, " Whenever you turn to the right hand or whenever you turn to the left. You will also defile the covering of your images of silver, And the ornament of your molded images of gold. You will throw them away as an unclean thing; You will say to them, "Get way!" Then He will give the rain for your seed with which you sow the ground, And bread of the increase to the earth; It will be fat and plentiful. In that day your cattle will feed in large pastures. OH Glory!
It's the attainment of the knowledge of the Spirit. Also, the atonement of the knowledge of what's been done in Christ. When your lips are touched- you will inevitable carry the scent from on high. When we see with our eyes we fall to our knees and there it is ...the untainted fear of the Lord that the atonement has called forth...the anointing being poured out. You go in, get the understanding and you come out on the other side. Think of it as a passing through. The walking back and forth of the anointing; the giving out. The groaning in the spirit to attain the things of the spirit; a birthing.
Thank Him for what He has done. For He has done wonderful and mighty things in and through you. Do this...never,ever...discount his love in your life. He holds your prosperity on a thousand hills and it all belongs to the church. It's minus the enemies tactics of fear plus the healthy fear of the Lord. Wisdom for your soul. Come buy and eat ...oh the glorious invite...Yes, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price...says Isaiah 55:1b The undeniable gift of abundance that Isaiah 61:7 pours for you and for me, stating boldly, Instead of shame you shall have double honor, And instead of confusion they shall rejoice in their portion. Therefore in their land they shall posses double; Everlasting joy shall be theirs. Ah! there's the double! The walking down the middle in the name of the Lord. Walking in the name of the Lord forever. Call upon His name and ye shall be saved the word says.
2 Corinthians 4:15...Thanksgiving abound. 2 Corinthians 3:18...from glory to glory.
We have passed through into a new season. Call it forth until the days come into being what the calendar calls newness (for the sake of mindfulness) but what is ours in the Spirit, do not wait...Be thankful! Know what is your fullness and go in after it with all that is within in you...all that is in your heart soul, mind and strength. You also shall be refilled should you know not where to reach, call on His name. You do not ask for bread and be given a stone. Oh no. He does not give to you a serpent as you have asked for fish. He is the giver of all good gifts. I write these things for your edification. Spoken to me in blessings to come. I share with you. He is life and life more abundant!
