God’s Word Is Surety

Hebrews 7:22 (NKJV) 22  by so much more Jesus has become a surety of a better covenant.
Religion has taught us for so long that we must line up with “its” rules, less emphasizing a relationship with God! 2 Corinthians 5:18-19 (NKJV) 18  Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation, 19  that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation.
Reconcile - to restore a relationship, to make things compatible, consistent
Concile - not an english word, but converts to “Council” Proverbs 11:14 (NKJV) 14  Where there is no counsel, the people fall; But in the multitude of counselors there is safety.
The crux of our anxiety is primarily contributed to the lack of seeing naturally, what we are believing Supernaturally!
Our greatest hurdle that we must overcome is our own thinking! A changed mindset equals a renewed Spirit, in you!
That means, when my mindset change; no longer do I think as if I cannot make it, I see it as an opportunity for God’s Glory to be revealed when I do make it!
My confidence is in His Word, because His Word must perform The Work God has set it out to perform!
So it does not matter the state of my circumstance, Because God Said So, I will rejoice!
I will go forward; I have my trust in The Holy Spirit; Who teaches me to listen to The Word of The Lord!
Because God’s Word is foundational, you can build on His Word and know that because He Said it, nothing can change it!
Prov. 3:26 For the LORD will be your confidence, And will keep your foot from being caught.
When those times of calamity seems to be so overwhelming, complaint is your best recourse; instead of seeking complaining, seek God; and your seeking will produce the evidence that God is almighty, and you will see that regardless of the current circumstance, He Loves you and He Cares!
Job 5:9 (KJV) 9  Which doeth great things and unsearchable; marvellous things without number:
When you seek God and search out His Word of Truth, you will be able to endure the testing phase and Job 5:24 (KJV) 24  And thou shalt know that thy tabernacle shall be in peace; and thou shalt visit thy habitation, and shalt not sin.

Beware of bitterness

There are times in your life where you have asked God; Why Me?
God, I have done all that I can to fear You, love You and walk with You, but yet it seems as if trouble is always in my way!
I have helped many, given to those that are in need, gave words of encouragement, but yet Lord it seems that my living is in vain, why me Lord?
Job 6:4 (KJV) 4  For the arrows of the Almighty are within me, the poison whereof drinketh up my spirit: the terrors of God do set themselves in array against me.
When you allow bitterness to take root, and drive your thinking, you will find yourself longing for results but won’t be able to ascertain them because the bitterness will cause you to not allow yourself to be settled in His Word!
Bitterness = sorrow, pain, resentment, anger, hatred, most of all, it is poison (Acts 8:23 (NKJV) 23  For I see that you are poisoned by bitterness and bound by iniquity."
Which are all not fruit of The Holy Spirit, I understand this, and realize what The Word says, but right now, I am in a place of anguish, I cannot see straight because I have allowed bitterness to swallow up my soul. . .
Job 7:11 (KJV) 11  Therefore I will not refrain my mouth; I will speak in the anguish of my spirit; I will complain in the bitterness of my soul.
Don’t get me wrong; yes, you will have moments where this will rise up, we are in the flesh, but we know that we are of The Spirit, so we do not give into the weakness of the flesh, but rely on The Power of The Holy Spirit!
Truth be told, naturally. . . .
Job despised his birth, even to the night he was conceived, because of the weight of bitterness he allowed himself to become swallowed up in; rightfully so, I mean, he went through a lot! But notice how satan stated that he has been to and fro, but he never looked at Job, why?
I believe God had hedged him up so that satan looked at Job as God on earth!
I want to be so raptured by God that when satan looks at me, he keeps moving on because he knows Who my Protector is!
He knows that he cannot touch me; he cannot even look at me!
When you are so raptured up by The Word of God, no longer does the world see you as who you were, because 2 Corinthians 5:17 (NKJV) 17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.

I Smile Because Of The Substance

Substance = Possession
“Now faith is the “Possession” of things hoped for. . .
I must declare ownership of those things I desire in God before I see them naturally! God’s Word is surety to me, bitterness can no longer rob me of what God has intended for me to possess in this earth!
Therefore, regardless of the current, I rejoice and be glad in this day, for God made it!
God did not create us to be in trouble always, He created us for His Glory to be revealed in the earth thru His Only Begotten Son (His Word) and because we know His Word, we know Him and realize that The Light is in me!
Therefore, Because God Said So; as Job persevered, even in the midst of bitterness, he managed to remain steadfast, immovable, trusting and resting in What God Has Said From The Beginning!
Isaiah 55:11 (NKJV) 11  So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.
Because God Said So, your Joy is full, regardless of where you are right now, you can smile!
Proverbs 17:22 (NKJV) 22  A merry heart does good, like medicine, But a broken spirit dries the bones.
When the pressures of life attempts to depress you, just let go and remember the Word of The Lord; Isaiah 55:12-13 (KJV) 12  For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands. 13  Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir tree, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree: and it shall be to the LORD for a name, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off.
Because God Said So - You have Joy - You Have Peace - You Have A Right Relationship With Him!
Because Jesus Lives, and Dwelt among us, full of Grace and Truth; Who He left in you, has equipped you with everything you need in order to keep moving forward!
Stop putting you down, when God has lifted you up; through His Son, and when He was lifted up, He drew all of your judgement to Him!
So if you want a reason to smile today, just think of Christ Jesus, Who brought you out to bring you in!
Lift up your heads! Rejoice in this day, for God has delivered you, He has brought you here for His Purpose and His Will to be done, on earth as it is in heaven!
