Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 85

Waiting remains a key to being properly raised; waiting until we die to the excitement to manifest or do exploits without being built within; waiting until casualties in life and ministry are grossly minimized; even until Christ is conceived and well developed in the womb of our souls (Jn. 6:28-29/Jn. 1:11-12, Eph. 3:17). Only by the doctrine of Christ, can we discern, deny and gradually disown such thoughts; even until we receive from heaven, a clean bill of divorce from this world (Eph. 4:20, 1Jn. 5:4).

Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 80

The best manifestation of heaven on earth, or of the will of God in our lives; or the finest interpretation of godliness in the days of our flesh, was designed to take place here on earth. Only by this faith can we be empowered to naturally hate sin until our souls become an irresistible habitation for Christ; a place He would indwell by His faith.

Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 76

Whenever Christ is yet to become the source of our soul’s security, a vacuum of insecurity would exist; even such that would see our souls rather consider scenarios that are to our advantage or that won’t make us look vulnerable before others. But when a walk or an accord is selflessly born between parties against all odds; then, heaven (because of an activity of faith) would show up or manifest its presence in our hearts (Matt. 6:10, Lk. 18:8).

Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 68

A carnal or earthly mind is resident in anyone who is more interested in the good things of this present life that God can give, rather than in the good of the gospel, even things with an eternal origin – that God wants to teach him and thereby cause him to ultimately inherit His nature/throne. Christ is the man carrying God’s approval and eternal blessing, so the degree to which we have been tried and have partaken of His life and light, is the degree to which we have become precious in God’s sight.

God the Father reserves the right to, and His infinite wisdom, won’t allow some believers come into any substantial material increase because it’s clear to Him that, like the young rich man, they won’t keep the commandments meant to enable them secure a good foundation called Christ thereby, and therefore would fall short of laying hold on eternal life. One of the most difficult things for a believer to do at some critical season of life is to, like father Abraham, believe in hope against hope or to keep believing when the dividends of doing so would take many years to come forth; or to dare to always trust the Lord when all the odds are against doing so, even when the devil is using all he can lay hold on to fight them from continuing.

Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 60

By bringing a daily siege and a barrage of distracting thoughts against the mind of a believer whose primary goal is to be a stone in Zion, the devil seeks to discourage us to draw back from the Lord, or to place a low premium on the Faith He authored and finished. The gospel of Christ is what empowers us to do this by enlightening us on the perimeter of Christ’s walk, even His Faith.

Nothing competes with eternal blessings like the pull behind carnal or natural blessings; and the only way we can manage this pull is by being trained to keep the commandments of Faith and Love in Christ Jesus, so we can bring the life and conversation of the world to come which resides in God into our flesh/daily lives. How does Christ gather such scattered souls? By the leading of the Spirit – where various unhealthy busyness and hustling are trimmed down – so we can see the idols of our soul and turn from them.

So the revelations of God’s righteousness in Christ came to enlighten and empower us with the conversations of life and godliness, so we can handle the lustful and corrupt system he created; one that makes men to seek everything else but the will and kingdom of God.

We all were weakened via Adam’s fall, from seeking God for God, and we all started by seeking God for the needs of this present life, but unknown to most believers, the world is designed to perpetually keep us doing so except we rise up against this by the strength of Christ’s Faith. Our hope either emanates from the gospel or from this world, and only the former doesn’t disappoint (Prov. 10:28, Rom. 5:5, 1 Pet. 2:6).

The leading of the Spirit is a leading against a life of ours which is of no use to us and to others, so we can acquire a life from above that would be of use to ourselves and to others; even an anointed life called Christ, that empowers whoever truly subscribe to it to gradually comprehend and inherit God.

When a man finds great grace to do so, he would be unpopular for a season, and unaccepted in some circles – especially among those who build something inferior or contrary to Christ (1Pet. 2:4-7). The remedy for this is to believe headlong, Christ’s report; even His doctrine (Isa. 53:1, Jn. 20:31, 1Jn. 5:1).

There was a dominant thought upon the heart and mind of our Lord Jesus in every hour of His life/walk on earth. That thought/meditation was His Father’s will, which became the food of His soul in no time, and this must someday become ours also.
