THE PATIENCE THAT EXPANDS US. James 1:4 But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing. That means fullness, no lack, no emptiness, sharing he fullness of his spiritual being, his love, peace and joy. So the perfect work is the increase of our capacity to contain more of this fullness of God within us. God is always at work upon us and in us, to expan...

  James 5:7 Be patient, therefore, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient about it, until it receives the early and the late rains. This is the kind of patience (macrothumia)that learns to wait through the process of sowing and reaping. It is the kind of patience that God honours throughout his Word. Luke 6:38 give, and i...

2 Chronicles 16:9 For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose heart is perfect (peaceable, friendly) toward Him. (The words God speaks to us are relational) God sees a fond heart towards himself as the ground and soil that allows entry for a mustard seed of faith to grow into acts of creative faith. This is where faith begins,...

FAITH IS THE SUPERNATURAL ACTIVITY OF BRINGING TO PASS GOD’S CREATIVE PURPOSE. FATHER PURPOSES, JESUS SPEAKS, HOLY SPIRIT ACTS. The Key point that Paul wants to make in the concluding chapters from Hebrews chapter ten through to chapter thirteen is the difference between Old Covenant faith and New Covenant faith. Faith is a heart decision that releases God’s power. The capacity of the faith heroes...

We are encouraged to approach God’s throne of grace with boldness and confidence in times of need while still recognizing the obvious scale of difference between his perfection and greatness and our imperfection and weakness. We do well to stay in this state of confident helplessness. Those who forsake their confidence risk leaving things to fate with a sense of hopelessness, while those who deny...

Psalm 23:5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; My cup runs over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. You prepare a table before me Remember when Abraham prepared the table for God. Here God prepares the table for David, a man after God’s own heart, who lives the s...

3M FLOW 1. The majesty of The Father 2. The meekness of Jesus 3. The mercies of The Holy Spirit Matthew 11:25 At that time Jesus declared, “I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these things from the wise and revealed them to the children; yes, Father, for such was your gracious plan. All things have been handed over to me by my Father, and no one knows (from the insi...

US IN THEM Genesis 18:1-9 Abraham saw Three in One at Mamre and prepares a meal for his three guests then watches them eat from under a tree. 1John 5:7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit: and these three are one. Now we are at table with them. We are now part of Trinity from the inside, not just thinking about Trinity from the outside. The Tri...

2Timothy 1:5. When I call to mind the genuine faith that is in you … I want to remind you to stir up that gift that is within you … 6 For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of an ordered mind. The spirit of fear was activated when Adam felt separated from God because of a threefold lie from the prince of darkness. A) God does not want the best for you, b) God does...

Staying in touch Luke 8:42… He was surrounded by the crowds. A woman in the crowd had suffered for twelve years with constant bleeding, and she could find no cure. Coming up behind Jesus, she touched the fringe of his robe. Immediately, the bleeding stopped. “Who touched me?” Jesus asked. Everyone denied it, and Peter said, “Master, this whole crowd is pressing up against you.” But Jesus said, “So...

What is the goal of Christian living, according to the New Covenant, the new relational arrangement God has established with us though Jesus. 1. He writes his laws (wisdom/moral values) in our (new) hearts 2. He Invites us all to know how to know him personally – BY WAY OF his mercy/forgiveness. SO – The Christian goal – To know God and to graciously reflect His loving nature and creative power. T...

Isaiah 30:1 “Stubborn children,” declares the Lord, “who carry out a plan, but not mine, and who make an alliance, but not of my Spirit, that they may add sin to sin; who set out to go down to Egypt, without asking for my direction, to take refuge in the protection of Pharaoh and to seek shelter in the shadow of Egypt! Therefore shall the protection of Pharaoh turn to your shame, and the shelter i...

These two men on the road to Emmaus had planned a journey, with a destination. The journey changed, and they didn’t quite reach their planned destination but they encountered Jesus and their lives and all future journeys were changed. We are all on a journey, and some journeys are longer than others, and some seem to be on hold. God is with us on each journey and the journey is always speaking to...

Amos 8:11 “Behold, the days are coming,” says the Lord God, “That I will send a famine on the land, Not a famine of bread, Nor a thirst for water, But of hearing the words of the Lord…wandering…running to and fro…seeking…not finding…  Why? – There are too many voices. But…there is a hunger for reality – to hear a clear voice - ‘Please tell me - what is going on?’ ‘1Corinthians 14:10 There are, it...

Hebrews 12:25 … listen to God who speaks to us from heaven! When he spoke from Mount Sinai his voice shook the earth, but,"Next time,"he says,"I will not only shake the earth but the heavens too." By this he means that he will sift out everything without solid foundations so that only unshakable things will be left. Since we have a Kingdom nothing can destroy, let us please God by serving him with...

FROM THE GRAVE TO THE SKY ‘THE PLAN’ Chapter 21 (edited) At the moment of his death the cosmos convulsed. An earthquake tore a searing gash into the mountainside and people were toppled off their feet. A blanket of darkness fell over the place as rocks split apart and the graves and tombs on a nearby hill cracked open. People ran in fear, but they did not know where to go. At that moment there wer...

The soul is the inner part of us that expresses what is going on in us, past present and ? for the future. It does this through the emotions, good and bad, and the thoughts and imaginations. It forms ideas and opinions of who we are. But where does it get its information? From two sources. 1) What we see and experience on the outside with our senses. And 2) What we receive from the inside with our...

The man brought me to the eastern entrance. There I could see the water flowing out of the east gateway. Measuring as he went, he took me along the stream for a thousand cubits and then led me across. The water was up to my ankles. He measured off another thousand cubits and led me across again. This time the water was up to my knees. After another thousand cubits, it was up to my waist. Then he m...

1 Chronicles 13:2And David said unto all the congregation of Israel … let us send abroad unto our brethren everywhere… that they may gather themselves unto us 3. And let us bring again the ark of the presence of our God to us for we did not enquire of it in the days of Saul.” God was waiting for the enquiring heart of David. David was then moved by God to bring back the ark of God’s presence, and...

Exodus 33:7 Moses took his tent and pitched it outside the camp, far from the camp, and called it the tent of meeting. And it came to pass that everyone who sought the Lord went out to the tent of meeting that was outside the camp. 8. Whenever Moses went out to the tent all the people rose, and each man stood at his tent door and watched Moses until he had gone into the tent. 9. And when Moses ent...

  ENDURING TO THE END ROMANS 11:25 Because I don’t want you to remain ignorant of this mysterious enigma, in case you should be just fooling yourselves, that Israel has become blinded in their minds for only a limited time, until the full number of the rest of mankind who will be made right with God through Jesus is reached, and only God knows that number. 26 And then all of Israel will be made ri...

John 16:33…I have overcome the world. Romans 12:21…overcome evil with good Harm and evil occupy the territory on one side of the veil, and peace and love and faith occupy the other side behind the veil There are only two spiritual laws at work in the universe. Romans 8:2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death. Romans 7:21 I find then a law,...

2Cor 3:16 But when one turns to the Lord, the veil is removed. Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord. Turning, to see or to look is done with our MIND – it is what we are conscio...

Innocence is where God lives in us and outworks wonders. It is not perfection and needs tons of mercy. But our natural mind draws us out into the shadowy territory of harm outside the veil of separation where there is unforgiveness and conflict. An innocent heart anchors itself behind the veil with God. Hebrews 6:19 This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast, and which ent...

Galatians 5:14. But if you attack one another (unforgiveness, anger, guilt etc.), watch out that you don't destroy one another. But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh (Veil). For the desires of the flesh (veil) are against the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit are against the flesh (veil), for these are opposed to each other, to keep you from doing the...
