1 Peter 1:3 (NASB20)
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His great mercy has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,

      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In just the same realness as one’s first life was born into the life of this world, in the same realness and essentiality is the second birth…. Just as the first birth starts off with one not being able to walk or fend for oneself, the second birth starts off with the same insecurities and inabilities….  As time is to the growing of the first birth, is learning to trust the life of Christ in one to the second, for as one learns to trust the life of Christ in them these insecurities and inabilities become a thing of the passed, this being the growing of one’s experience with the life of Christ in them…. This being the very life of the faith of the heart, for as this new life grows the more, one learns and gets to know and trust this new life that has been entrusted into them…

For this new life that has been entrusted to one, this new life itself being the most valuable and important thing in all of things, for it being the very life of God Himself….. For it is one’s desire after this new life, this most important possession, that is the arbiter of its growing, that being one’s very hearts desire after it, not after one’s ability to manifest it, for that is an impossibility, for God’s love manifests it in one according to one’s faith and desire after it…. For all of the issues in life are for the purpose of getting the desire of the heart to seek after righteousness, that being the very expression that God Himself would have in all the things of life….

For when Jesus was raised from the dead His life was made available to all that would have the desire for it… For just as real as His death was, is His giving of this new life, for God wrapped up all of humanity in sin that this new life would be available equally to all according to one’s heart’s desire towards it…. For this being the issue before mankind, one looking, one desiring something beyond, above this world and the things of, a looking away from one’s own abilities and desires of creation to the Creator Himself to satisfy, for creation is limited, He is not…..

Unto Him be the desire of our hearts….


In the Beloved, Not me

Good post. As I have lived my Christian life throughout the years, I find that there is only one sure way to become successful in glorifying God. It is found in the verses below.

John 15:7-8 (KJV)
7  If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.
8  Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples.

I understand this to mean that as I live my life in Christ, and allow His words to live in me, then spiritual fruit is the natural outcome. I cannot glorify God by my works or my own efforts to please Him. Spiritual fruit can only be manifested by the Spirit of God that dwells in me. And that only comes from a deep intimate relationship with Christ.

Thanks for the post.

Gary

A very learned and experienced relationship says the above…

Be so very blessed in that relationship, as He Himself grants the increase….

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
