How to win the Battle!
How to win the Battle!
Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things.
Make sure you are getting the right information!
Make sure you are getting the right information!
Today we live a world of mis information. Everyone has a tale to tell.
without the right information you will never win the battle!
The information that we are talking about is the information about who you are, who God is, what life is about, and what is truth. its about what is life and what is death!
where are you getting your information from?
whose table are you sitting at daily?
is it tv, news, talkshow?
We need to examine our information.
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
The renewing of our mind is to be reminded of who we are, who God is, and what are His plans and purposes for our lives.
This is a process we need to undertake daily!
How do we do this?
We feed on Him!
Then Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in you. Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. For My flesh is food indeed, and My blood is drink indeed. He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood abides in Me, and I in him. As the living Father sent Me, and I live because of the Father, so he who feeds on Me will live because of Me. This is the bread which came down from heaven—not as your fathers ate the manna, and are dead. He who eats this bread will live forever.”
Get your information From God!
Get your information From God!
We make sure we are getting the right information when we are getting it directly form God Himself!
we must go to God! daily! all the time! we must make Him our table and abide in him and in His truth.
This is God’s plan for us! that is why He sent us the Holy Spirit, to lead us into all truth!
This isn’t a superficial conversation!
this is eating, chewing on, digesting, tasting, allowing it to go deep into us!
This is drinking, tasting, accepting something to come into you and affect you, allow it to kill your thirst.
We are called to become one with the Father the Son and the Holy Spirit!
do you get what God is all about and what he is doing, can you get drunk on it?
The idea is to get God’s heart and let it burn in our hearts! that is called catching the fire!
Not what goes into the mouth defiles a man; but what comes out of the mouth, this defiles a man.”
He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High
Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress;
My God, in Him I will trust.”
Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler
And from the perilous pestilence.
He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High
Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress;
My God, in Him I will trust.”
casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ,
A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth evil. For out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.
we need diligence
Keep your heart with all diligence,
For out of it spring the issues of life.
