2/27/20 The Right Thing to Do

Overcoming the world by the power of God through His Holy Spirit is simply the right thing for each of us to do. In the same way, leading our families to a place of safety in Him is the right plan to follow. It is right in God’s eyes, so there should be no other plan for us to even consider.

The strategy of the enemy is to nullify the effectiveness of you and your family. He desires for you to follow your own plans, walk in your own strength, and teach your children to do the same. He knows that by pointing you in that direction, you and your family are no real threat to him and his kingdom.

On the other hand, traveling on the right path with God - walking in kingdom power by fully submitting to Jesus and His ways - nullifies any effect the world and its ways have on you. Living the life of Christ - simply because it’s the right thing to do - creates an ark of safety from the effects of the world. It brings into play everything the cross has won for you. It allows you to walk in the powerful office you have been given. You please God by doing what’s right in His eyes. That leads to amazing things!

2/27/20 His Thoughts, His Ways

“Choose the mind of Christ. Shake off all the thoughts of the world that hinder Our association. Submit yourself to My thoughts. Align with My Word. You are not walking with My presence because you have submitted to thoughts and habits that are not Mine.

"Little by little, you have lost the intensity to follow Me with all your heart. The enemy has crept in and you are now comfortable with some of his ways. Shake off the dullness in which you are living. Wake up to your lethargy. It is part of a plan to destroy your zeal for Me and My plans. Repent. Turn now!”

Ps. 94:11 AMP

The Lord knows the thoughts of man, that they are vain (empty and futile–only a breath).

Matt. 13:22 AMP

As for what was sown among thorns, this is he who hears the Word, but the cares of the world and the pleasure and delight and glamour and deceitfulness of riches choke and suffocate the Word, and it yields no fruit.

Romans 8:5 AMP

For those who are according to the flesh and are controlled by its unholy desires set their minds on and pursue those things which gratify the flesh, but those who are according to the Spirit and are controlled by the desires of the Spirit set their minds on and seek those things which gratify the [Holy] Spirit.

I Cor. 2:16 AMP

For who has known or understood the mind (the counsels and purposes) of the Lord so as to guide and instruct Him and give Him knowledge? But we have the mind of Christ (the Messiah) and do hold the thoughts (feelings and purposes) of His heart.

Gal.3:3 NIV

Are you so foolish? After beginning with the Spirit, are you now trying to attain your goal by human effort?

Gal. 5:7-9 AMP

7) You who were running the race nobly. Who has interfered in (hindered and stopped you from) your heeding and following the Truth?

8) This [evil] persuasion is not from Him Who called you [Who invited you to freedom in Christ].

9) A little leaven (a slight inclination to error, or a few false teachers) leavens the whole lump [it perverts the whole conception of faith or misleads the whole church].

Ephesians 4:22-24 NIV

22) You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires;

23) to be made new in the attitude of your minds;

24) and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.

Colossians 3:1-5a NIV

1) Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God.

2) Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.

3) For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God.

4) When Christ, who is your life, appears, then you will also appear with him in glory.

5) Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature…

Let me settle for nothing less than Your mind and Your heart, Lord,

2/26/20 God’s Kind of Integrity

In a world of throw-away relationships, marginal commitments, and a redefined meaning of integrity, we - as men of God - are called to walk in the kind of no compromise integrity Jesus had. He walked so far above the ways of the world that compromised, hardened individuals couldn’t stand to be with Him. In fact, they had to rid Him from their midst because He walked in the integrity of His Father.

A man known for uncompromised integrity is looked upon in two ways. To those seeking truth, he is an inspiration. His life shines bright in a darkened world. He is sought out by those who have grown weary of the slippery slope half-truths. His life is a refreshing example to follow.

On the other hand, if you walk in God’s kind of uncompromised integrity, every force of evil that dwells in those who hate the ways of God will be loosed against you. You’ll be looked upon as someone who “just doesn’t understand.” Often you’ll be standing alone, sometimes looking like a fool to those who don’t think as you do. Your circle of “friends” will grow smaller and smaller as you walk in a light that shines on the compromise in them. They’ll eventually hate you for who you are and what you stand for. You’ll eventually be looked upon with the same disdain Jesus experienced. What great company to be in!

2/26/20 God Has a Remnant

“Most of those I have sent forth to do My work have become distracted or have fallen asleep along the way. Others have been mesmerized by the trappings of the world and have used My provision to pad their personal comfort zones. It truly looks as if there are very few proclaiming the truth of My Word. Outwardly, it appears as if the money changers have again taken over My temple. You need to look closer. I have a remnant. I have a people who are familiar with the coals at My altar.

"There are those who have embraced My refiner’s fire and have proven their love for Me. They have been faithful in all of their assignments no matter what the cost has been to them. Many have often laced their sandals and prepared for journeys of valor, carrying My hope to others. They are unrecognizable by the world and most of those who are squandering My time and My mercy. They are the quiet few who carry the bridal heart of Jesus wherever I tell them to go. I am about to give them a wedding garment in exchange for their well-worn worker’s clothing. I am about to send forth My Bridegroom for them.”

Matthew 6:19-21 NIV

19) “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal.

20) But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal.

21) For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”

Matthew 16:22-23 NIV

22) Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him. “Never, Lord!” he said. “This shall never happen to you!”

23) Jesus turned and said to Peter, “Out of my sight, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me; you do not have in mind the things of God, but the things of men.”

Matthew 21:28-31 NIV

28) “What do you think? There was a man who had two sons. He went to the first and said, ‘Son, go and work today in the vineyard.’

29) “‘I will not,’ he answered, but later he changed his mind and went.

30) “Then the father went to the other son and said the same thing. He answered, ‘I will sir,’ but he did not go.

31) “Which of the two did what his father wanted?”

If you are slumbering, you need to wake up. If you are distracted, you need to regain your focus and align it with God’s focus for you. If your personal goals do not center around a bridal heart and honorable preparation for attaining it, you have positioned yourself along the sidelines of where God is moving.

Please bring my heart in perfect alignment with Your heart, Lord,

2/25/20 Helpless Before God

Being helpless before God is the opposite of weakness. It allows the believer to tap into the limitless power and supernatural wealth of God and His kingdom. Purposeful helplessness is true to the character of Christ as He did nothing of Himself but only what He saw the Father doing.

As a husband and father, you’re required to create an atmosphere of loving trust and obedience to God. Your example is the best way for your children to learn how to walk as Jesus walked. It’s the place of safety for most wives. When they’re confident that their husbands are submitting to the Lord on their behalf, they find fertile ground to prosper in Christ.

Macho independence - a life of attempting to meet daily challenges and prosper in personal confidence and human strength - is a walk of ignorance. It’s the formula for failure as the world grows darker. It’s the path the enemy would love you and your family to stay on.

Our human strength is no match for the spiritual warfare established against us. Only in the power of God will we be able to withstand the war that’s designed to hinder us from overseeing a prosperous family that’s doing significant work for the Lord. Only in His supernatural strength will any of us be the kind of man the world needs to see as we walk in the character of Christ. We become strong as we deny our own puny human strength and tap into the overwhelming power of our life in Christ. That’s done through a surrendered heart, one that understands its own human frailty and the joy of fully submitting to the power of God.
