ENSURING POWER AND GRACE

ENSURING POWER AND GRACE: IT’S ABOUT PERCEPTION AND REFLECTION!

“And David PERCEIVED that the Lord had established him king over Israel, and that he had EXALTED his kingdom for his people Israel’s sake” 2 Samuel 5:12.

Your REFLECTION of godliness is the outcome of your PERCEPTION of the WORD of God that’s within your reach. When you PERCEIVE wrongly, you REFLECT wrongly. You are REFLECTING what you are today as a result of the PERCEPTION you have of God’s WORD in every subject that concerns you and probably others. Hence, you don’t have to blame any – and it’s irrelevant how long you’ve been on that PERCEPTION trajectory. And if it’s wrong, you can make a change today and now, in order to enjoy the fullness of God in His POWER to FUNCTION and GRACE to BECOME.

PERCEPTION is not a FEELING. PERCEPTION is of the Spirit – spiritual – of your innermost being by the Holy Spirit through the WORD of God, while FEELING is of the flesh – the SENSES – which is a by-product of SUSPICION, by defining matters from how you – see, taste, touch, smell and hear – about it. Living a life of PERCEPTION by the WORD of God DELIVERS from living a life of SUSPICION that makes one REFLECT wrongly about matters of life and godliness in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

Know full well today, that, it’s how you PERCEIVE of God’s WORD in matters of life and godliness that you REFLECT in your world of doing life and godly living.

“And when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, PERCEIVED the GRACE that was GIVEN unto me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we should go unto the heathen, and they unto the circumcision” Galatians 2:9.

And that means, that the level of the operation and manifestations of the POWER of God to FUNCTION and the GRACE of God to BECOME in every way of doing life and living godly, are define within the concept of your PERCEPTION of God’s WORD in any particular subject _ and that gives the outcome that you are currently REFLECTING and may have experience in your worlds.

It’s how you PERCEIVE of God’s WORD that you REFLECT in subject as: Christian marriage, Christian gathering, Christian Prayer and Fasting, Christian giving, Christian and politics, Christian and medicine, Christian and Prosperity, Christian and Leadership, Christian and Unbelieving Relationship and such like.

Just examine these three SCRIPTURAL examples that their PERCEPTION of God’s WORD or SAYING also REFLECTED what brought the changes in their walk with God:

** ABRAHAM – As far as you can PERCEIVE – so you can REFLECT, God told him – Genesis 22:3-19.

** THE BLIND MAN – What do you PERCEIVE, Jesus asked the blind man – I PERCEIVED men as TREES (REFLECTION) and then when helped to PERCEIVED well, he REFLECTED his good sight afterwards – Mark 8:23-25.

** JEREMIAH – what do you PERCEIVE – what he perceived then changed his mischaracterization of himself to REFLECT the new him – Jeremiah 1:11-12.

You can’t LIVE to REFLECT beyond your PERCEPTION of God’s WORD. Hence, the amount of availability of God’s POWER to FUNCTION and GRACE to BECOME is as experienced by the Apostles.

“And when they had PRAYED, the place was shaken where they were ASSEMBLED TOGETHER; and they were all FILLED with the Holy Ghost, and they SPAKE THE WORD of God with BOLDNESS . . . 33 And with GREAT POWER gave the apostles WITNESS of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and GREAT GRACE was upon them all” Acts 4:31, 33.

I PRAY that you begin to study God’s WORD for yourself in order to have your own personal PERCEPTION as Timothy did as he was instructed by Apostle Paul, to give him the needed REFLECTION of himself with God.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, PERCEIVED the GRACE that was GIVEN unto me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we should go unto the heathen, and they unto the circumcision” Galatians 2:9.

“And he took the blind man by the hand, and led him out of the town; and when he had spit on his eyes, and put his hands upon him, he asked him if he SAW (PERCEIVED) ought. 24 And he looked up, and said, I SEE (PERCEIVE) men as TREES (REFLECTION), walking. 25 After that he put his hands again upon his EYES (PERCEPTION), and made him look up: and he was restored, and saw (PERCEIVED) every man clearly (REFLECTION)” Mark 8:23-25 (Emphasis Mine).

“. . . 11 Moreover THE WORD of the Lord came unto me, saying, Jeremiah, what SEEST (PERCEIVE) thou? And I said, I SEE (PERCEIVE) a rod of an almond tree. 12 Then said the Lord unto me, Thou hast well seen: for I will hasten my WORD to PERFORM (REFLECT) it . . .” Jeremiah 1:1-19 Emphasis Mine.

“And when they had PRAYED, the place was shaken where they were ASSEMBLED TOGETHER; and they were all FILLED with the Holy Ghost, and they SPAKE THE WORD of God with BOLDNESS . . . 33 And with GREAT POWER gave the apostles WITNESS of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and GREAT GRACE was upon them all” Acts 4:31, 33.

“But CONTINUE thou in the things which thou hast LEARNED and hast been ASSURED of, knowing of whom thou hast LEARNED them; 15 and that from a child thou hast KNOWN the holy scriptures, which are ABLE to make thee wise unto SALVATION through faith which is in Christ Jesus. 16 All scripture is given by INSPIRATION of God, and is PROFITABLE for DOCTRINE, for REPROOF, for CORRECTION, for INSTRUCTION in righteousness: 17 that the man of God may be PERFECT, throughly FURNISHED unto all good works” 2 Timothy 3:14-17.

“Study to shew thyself APPROVED unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth” 2 Timothy 2:15.

“For the WORD of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. 13 Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do” Hebrews 4:12-13.

“And the Lord brought Abram outside [his tent into the night] and said, “LOOK (PERCEIVE) now toward the heavens and COUNT (PERCEIVE) the stars—if you are able to COUNT (PERCEIVE) them.” Then He said to him, “So [numerous] shall your descendants be (REFLECTION)” 6 Then Abram believed in (affirmed, trusted in, relied on, remained steadfast to) the Lord; and He counted (credited) it to him [a]as righteousness (doing right in regard to God and man)” Genesis 15:5-6 Amplified. (Genesis 22:3-19).

THE DIVINE GOD OF LOVE: LOVE OF THE FIVE SENSES

By Leave a Comment

THE DIVINE GOD OF LOVE: LOVE OF THE FIVE SENSES – CAN’T FATHOM THE DIVINE GOD OF LOVE – NOR GOD’S KIND OF DIVINE LOVE!

There’s the need to KNOW The LOVE Of Christ Which SURPASSES, SUPERCEDES and TRANSCENDS SENSE Knowledge, if you must make sense of God’s default and personified divine LOVE. The divine love of God gives – it’s a GIVING love, meaning, it does not DEMAND to be love because the embodiment is love, and lavishly gives love unconditionally. And divine love is a COMMENDED love because of what Christ Jesus is done for our REDEMPTION in Him.

“For God so loved the world, that he GAVE his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life” John 3:16.

“And hope maketh not ashamed; BECAUSE THE LOVE OF GOD IS SHED ABROAD IN OUR HEARTS by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us. 6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. 7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. 8 But God COMMENDETH HIS LOVE TOWARD US, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us”.

The FIVE SENSES love speaks of the NATURAL – SENSUAL man who operates by material sensory of FEELING/TOUCHING, TASTING, SMELLING, HEARING and SEEING, to make a concise conclusions in order to ensure its definition in love. It tends demand and fight to be love otherwise goes into a mood or mode of irreparable returns at some point.

This FIVE SENSES LOVE requires laboratory test of men for approval, and as such:

** It’s limited and

** It’s subject to change depending on the public poll of acceptance.

** It’s always awaiting all the time for the acknowledging and approval in – friendship, family, work and in places of governance, doing life and such like.

** It’s built of and on human selfishness even though it’s not easily acknowledge or spoken of as if it is or not.

** It’s based on conditionality in expression

** It’s based on sentiments in nearly all its intent.

And because the five senses love is natural and sensual, it can’t fathom the divine God of love nor God personified in His divine kind of love, hence – LAWS and RULES are made to regulate it with CHANGES in times to suit the human demand and supply.

And unfortunately, the SENSE love kind, could be deadly when not fully actualized, as many have been disappointed, derailed, depressed, suicidal and some even passed on untimely, when the expected expectations didn’t materialized and or come to fruition.

Divine Love is Good and is of God. And is lavishly given to all who comes to God in Christ Jesus by the Blessed Holy Spirit that dwells within a born again child of God. Romans 5:5-8.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Now we have RECEIVED, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. . . 14 But the NATURAL MAN receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are SPIRITUALLY DISCERNED” 1 Corinthians 2:12, 14.

“. . . 17 So that Christ may dwell in your hearts through your faith. And may you, having been [deeply] rooted and [securely] grounded in LOVE, 18 be fully capable of comprehending with all the saints (God’s people) the WIDTH and LENGTH and HEIGHT and DEPTH of His love [fully experiencing that amazing, endless love]; 19 and [that you may come] to know [practically, through personal experience] the LOVE of Christ which far SURPASSES [mere] (SENSE) knowledge [without experience], that you may be filled up [throughout your being] to all the fullness of God [so that you may have the richest experience of God’s presence in your lives, completely filled and flooded with God Himself] . . .” Ephesians 3:14-21. Amplified. Emphasis Mine.

“But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath PREPARED for them that LOVE him. 10 But God hath REVEALED them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God” 1 Corinthians 2:9-10.

“And we know [with great confidence] that God [who is deeply concerned about us] CAUSES ALL THINGS TO WORK TOGETHER [as a plan] for good for those who LOVE God, to those who are called according to His plan and purpose” Romans 8:28. Amplified.

“And hope maketh not ashamed; BECAUSE THE LOVE OF GOD IS SHED ABROAD IN OUR HEARTS by the Holy Ghost which is GIVEN unto us. 6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. 7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. 8 But God COMMENDETH HIS LOVE TOWARD US, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” Romans 5:5-8.

IT IS WRITTEN – THE FAITH THAT WORKS

IT IS WRITTEN – THE FAITH THAT WORKS: THE POWER OF THE WRITTEN WORD!

I love photo or pictorial info. I love video info. But the Written Info, surpassed them all in my worlds of grace and life. It takes the WRITTEN WORD to create the potential PICTURED WORD to BECOME the Motion and Kinetic VIDEO WORD. It’s simply for this knowing and Understanding:

** FAITH to do life with God comes by HEARING, the HEARING of the WORD of God – Romans 10:17. FAITH does not come by HAVING HEARD, but by the HEARING – present tense continuous. However, to be APPROVED of God of that FAITH, it comes by STUDYING the WRITTEN WORD of God.

** The acts to and of study requires – READING, MEDITATING which is PONDERING THROUGH the WRITTEN WORD and AFFIRMING the WRITTEN WORD in our human spirit by the Holy Spirit until it takes hold of ones total being.

** And as one begins to make a declaration, that is – testifying or proclaiming or announcing or professing and confessing of the affirmed WORD in our human spirit by the Holy Spirit, we create the atmosphere and realms of the worlds of God, which we enjoy in our REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus. Amen.

Hence, it’s at the WRITTEN WORD that the consciousness of the Living WORD which is the Revealed WORD comes, and through STUDY, it’s developed and transformed into the Incarnate WORD – The WORD that BECOMES FLESH, that’s, the reality, the tangible and the truth in real life terms, for one to enjoy in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

Remember this, that Jesus in humanity said – “IT IS WRITTEN” (Matthew 4:1-11), and He did not day – “IT IS PICTORIAL or VIDEO FORMAT” to enable Him or any, put the Devil and cohorts at bay. It’s simply for the implication of the POWER of the WRITTEN WORD to other means of life communications which I don’t undermine at all.

Therefore don’t take the WRITTEN WORD for granted, simply because of the Picture and Video format of the multimedia worlds; and if the WORD of God must be INCARNATE – a reality and tangible, in your life through FAITH, the WRITTEN WORD is the ANSWER.

“Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man APPROVED of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know” Acts 2:22.

It’s time to HEAR God for yourself; it will SAVE your from being MISTAKEN and DELUDED. FAITH in God is HOPE and ASSURANCE for your today and tomorrow  Hebrews 13:8.

Pleasing God Is by FAITH. FAITH Comes by the HEARING, and HEARING THE WORD. And the Word PLEASES God. And PLEASING God Is REWARDING! It thus Mean therefore: NO WORD, NO FAITH; No FAITH, means No PLEASING of God; No Pleasing God, No God’s kind of REWARD. More importantly, when a man’s ways PLEASE the Lord, He MAKES His ENEMIES to be at PEACE with him – Proverbs 16:7. The easier way to get rid of an Enemy is by FAITH – acting correspondingly on God’s WORD. FAITH PLEASES GOD and makes you VICTORIOUS and THE WORLD OVERCOMER. 1 John 5:4-5.. FAITH takes you out of SIN and SINFUL CONSCIOUSNESS. Romans 14:23.

THEREFORE INCLINE YOUR EAR TO HEAR GOD – HEAR HEALTHILY TO FEED YOUR SPIRIT BEING FOR YOUR OWN GOOD AND GOODNESS OF GOD IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD.

Hearing God, saved you from being MISTAKEN, ERRORS and DELUDED in everyway in doing life with God in His BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. For FAITH in God is hope and assurance for your today and tomorrow well-being. Hebrews 13:8, Matthew 22:29.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“. . . 22 And Jesus answering saith unto them, HAVE FAITH IN GOD . . .” Mark 11:11-14, 20-24.

“So then FAITH cometh by HEARING, and HEARING by the WORD of God” Romans 10:17.

“But without FAITH it is impossible to PLEASE him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a REWARDER of them that DILIGENTLY seek him” Hebrews 11:6.

“When a MAN’S WAYS PLEASE the Lord, he MAKETH even his ENEMIES to be at PEACE with him” Proverbs 16:7.

“My son, attend to my words; INCLINE THINE EAR unto my SAYINGS. 21 Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. 22 For they are life unto those that find them, and HEALTH to all their FLESH” Proverbs 4:20-22.

“For WHATSOEVER is born of God OVERCOMETH THE WORLD: and this is the VICTORY that OVERCOMETH THE WORLD, even our FAITH. 5 Who is he that OVERCOMETH THE WORLD, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?” 1 John 5:4-5.

“And he that DOUBTETH is damned if he eat, because he eateth not of FAITH: for WHATSOEVER IS NOT OF FAITH IS SIN” Romans 14:23.

“Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the JUST shall LIVE by HIS FAITH” Habakkuk 2:4 (Galatians 3:11; Hebrews 10:38; Romans 1:16-17).

THE WORD is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, THE WORD OF FAITH, which we preach; 9 that if thou shalt CONFESS WITH THY MOUTH the Lord Jesus, and shalt BELIEVE IN THINE HEART that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the HEART man BELIEVETH unto righteousness; and with the MOUTH CONFESSION is made unto salvation” Romans 10:8-10.

PRESENTING YOUR BODIES (FLESH – SENSES) TO GOD

PRESENTING YOUR BODIES (FLESH – SENSES) TO GOD: THE EASIEST WAY TO KNOWING GOD’S WILL AND TO TRIUMPH IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD!

I do know that every Believers in Christ wants to live triumphantly and experience the EASIEST way to their daily TRIUMPH; also, wants to KNOW THE HOW and OPERATIVE PRINCIPLE, in God’s WILL, for them, in life and grace, without obstructions.

Being a GOSPEL Minister have given me such rare privilege to know relatively, the questions and the feelings of people who struggles day to day to ensure that they are at peace within themselves, especially on matters affecting their personal relationship with God; and in the how they do life with others and in carrying out their daily earthly affairs. Unknown to some, the solution and matters are simple – it’s for you to PRESENT YOUR BODIES AS A LIVING SACRIFICES UNTO GOD.

But How can one present one’s BODIES to God as a living sacrifice? To present your BODIES simply means to hand over your SENSES which makes you BODY-RULED or FLESH-RULED toward God instead of being SPIRIT-RULED or WORD-RULED to Him. The human body is functional by the operation of the FIVE SENSES: These senses are –

** Sight (Seeing),

** Hear (Hearing/Listening),

** Taste (Tasting),

** Feel (Feeling) or Touch (Touching) and

** Smell (Smelling).

These five senses have made and unmade humanity in various shape in what they have become to themselves and relatives to OTHERS intentionally and unintentionally. It’s of these senses that man failed and fall in the first place with God and himself. And many are still in such a great danger in their daily walk with God.

The scriptures enjoined us to WALK by FAITH SENSE – that’s by the WORD SENSE, for FAITH is functional by the WORD, it comes by the WORD and it’s build up by the WORD; hence we should not WALK by SIGHT – SENSE (Five Senses of seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting and feeling (touching).

More so, FAITH IS SPIRITUAL, and it’s of the Holy Spirit. Therefore, PRESENTING YOUR SENSES TO BE SPIRIT-LED (WORD LED), will ensure EASE and TRIUMPH in knowing and operating in God’s precious – GOOD, SURE, TRUE, ACCEPTABLE and PERFECT (wholesome, mature and complete) WILL for your life and unhindered in the grace wherein you stand in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye PRESENT YOUR BODIES (SENSES) a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. 2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the RENEWING OF YOUR MIND, that ye may PROVE what is that GOOD, and ACCEPTABLE, and PERFECT, WILL of God” Romans 12:1-2 (Emphasis Mine).

“I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air: 27 but I keep under my BODY (SENSES), and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway” 1 Corinthians 9:26-27 (Emphasis Mine)

“For we WALK by FAITH, not by SIGHT (SENSES)” 2 Corinthians 5:7 (Emphasis Mine)

“And they that are Christ’s have CRUCIFIED the FLESH (SENSUAL) with the affections and lusts. 25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit” Galatians 5:24-25 (Emphasis Mine)

It’s simply for the implication of the POWER of the WRITTEN WORD to other means of life communications which I don’t undermine at all.

Therefore, don’t take the WRITTEN WORD for granted, simply because of the Picture and Video format of the multimedia worlds; and if the WORD of God must be INCARNATE – a reality and tangible, in your life through FAITH, the WRITTEN WORD is the ANSWER.

INCLINE YOUR HEARING EARS TO HEAR GOD: The HEARING of FAITH  PLEASES GOD!

It’s time to HEAR God for yourself; it will SAVE your from being MISTAKEN and DELUDED. FAITH in God is HOPE and ASSURANCE for your today and tomorrow  Hebrews 13:8.

Pleasing God Is By Faith. Faith Comes By The Hearing, And Hearing The Word. And The Word PLEASES God. And PLEASING God Is REWARDING! It thus Mean therefore: NO WORD, NO FAITH; No Faith, No Pleasing of God; No Pleasing God, No God’s Kind of Reward. More importantly, when a man’s ways PLEASE the Lord, He MAKES His ENEMIES to be at PEACE with him – Proverbs 16:7. The easier way to get rid of an Enemy is by FAITH – acting correspondingly on God’s WORD. FAITH PLEASES GOD and makes you VICTORIOUS and THE WORLD OVERCOMER. 1 John 5:4-5.

THEREFORE, INCLINE YOUR EAR TO HEAR GOD – HEAR HEALTHILY TO FEED YOUR SPIRIT BEING.

Hearing God, saved you from being mistaken and deluded in everyway in doing life with God in His BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. For FAITH in God is hope and assurance for your today and tomorrow well-being. Hebrews 13:8.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“So then FAITH cometh by HEARING, and HEARING by the WORD of God” Romans 10:17.

“But without FAITH it is impossible to PLEASE him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a REWARDER of them that DILIGENTLY seek him” Hebrews 11:6 

“When a MAN’S WAYS PLEASE the Lord, he MAKETH even his ENEMIES to be at PEACE with him” Proverbs 16:7.

“My son, attend to my words; INCLINE THINE EAR unto my SAYINGS. 21 Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. 22 For they are life unto those that find them, and HEALTH to all their FLESH” Proverbs 4:20-22.

“For WHATSOEVER is born of God OVERCOMETH THE WORLD: and this is the VICTORY that OVERCOMETH THE WORLD, even our FAITH. 5 Who is he that OVERCOMETH THE WORLD, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?” 1 John 5:4-5

THE EASIEST WAY TO KNOWING GOD’S WILL AND TO TRIUMPH

By Leave a Comment

THE EASIEST WAY TO KNOWING GOD’S WILL AND TO TRIUMPH: THIS IS BY PRESENTING YOUR BODIES (FLESH – SENSES) TO GOD!

I do know that every Believers in Christ wants to live triumphantly and experience EASIEST way to their daily TRIUMPH; also, to KNOW the HOW operative principle in God’s WILL for their life in grace without obstructions.

Being a GOSPEL Minister, have given me such rare privilege to know relatively, the questions and the feelings of people who struggles day to day to ensure that they are at peace within themselves, especially on matters affecting their personal relationship with God; and in the how they do life with others and in carrying out their daily earthly affairs. Unknown to some, the solution and matters are simple – it’s to PRESENT YOUR BODIES AS A LIVING SACRIFICES UNTO GOD.

But How can one present one’s BODIES?

To present your BODIES simply means to hand over your SENSES which makes you BODY-RULED or FLESH-RULED towards God, instead of being SPIRIT-RULED or WORD-RULED. The human body is functional by the operation of the FIVE SENSES:

These senses are –

** Sight (Seeing),

** Hear (Hearing/Listening),

** Taste (Tasting),

** Feel (Feeling) or Touch (Touching) and

** Smell (Smelling).

These five senses have made and unmade humanity in various shape. It’s of these senses that man failed and fall in the first place with God and himself. And many are still in such a great danger in their daily walk with God.

The scriptures enjoined us to WALK by FAITH SENSE – that’s by the WORD sense, for FAITH is functional by the WORD, it comes be the WORD and it’s build up by the WORD; hence we should not WALK by SIGHT – SENSE (Five Senses).

More so, FAITH IS SPIRITUAL, and it’s of the Holy Spirit. Therefore, PRESENTING YOUR SENSES TO BE SPIRIT-LED, will ensure EASE and TRIUMPH in knowing and operating in God’s precious – GOOD, ACCEPTABLE and PERFECT (wholesome, mature and complete) WILL for your life unhindered. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye PRESENT YOUR BODIES (SENSES) a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. 2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the RENEWING OF YOUR MIND, that ye may PROVE what is that GOOD, and ACCEPTABLE, and PERFECT, WILL of God” Romans 12:1-2 (Emphasis Mine).

“I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air: 27 but I keep under my BODY (SENSES), and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway” 1 Corinthians 9:26-27 (Emphasis Mine)

“For we WALK by FAITH, not by SIGHT (SENSES)” 2 Corinthians 5:7 (Emphasis Mine)

“And they that are Christ’s have CRUCIFIED the FLESH (SENSUAL) with the affections and lusts. 25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit” Galatians 5:24-25 (Emphasis Mine)
