Becoming God Inside Minded

                                                 

In Leviticus 23:15 God told the Hebrew people to count seven full Sabbaths and one day after the feast of first fruits and celebrate Shavuot with thanksgiving and praise. In Exodus 19:18, God manifested His presence and fire, as He shook the mountain and spoke to His people. Fifteen hundred years later on Shavuot, or Pentecost which is Greek for 50, the church was born. Yet the Jewish people had been celebrating this date for 1500 years. This time God sent His Holy Spirit which sounded like a mighty rushing wind. Instead of speaking to them from a mountain, He came inside them and filled them with His presence and fire and spoke through them (Acts 2). It is God inside of us. In Colossians 1:29 God inside us is described as a mystery "Christ in us the hope of glory".

In Luke 8:27-33, Jesus cast 1000 demons out of a man into 2000 pigs. The 2000 pigs could not contain or handle the 1000 demons and immediately the entire herd ran off a high cliff into the lake below and drowned. What is significant is that the man was able to handle and contain the demons. In Matthew 4:4 Jesus said, "Man shall not live by bread alone but by every word which proceeds out of the mouth of God." God can speak a billion words per second for the next billion years and we are able to hear and live by every single one! If this wasn't true, He would have never told us to live by every word He speaks. 

These two examples tell us that we have an amazingly gigantic spiritual capacity, which must be acknowledged and developed! We have generally thought God was way out somewhere and it has been tough to get His attention. We must line up with His reality. He is in us! Romans 12:2 tells us to renew our minds to truth, His Word.

We must become God-inside minded! Colossians 2:9 says that the entire Godhead bodily dwells in us. Instead of "feeling" the spirit of God on the outside where the enemy and the sense realm is always attempting to deceive, we must be led by the inside-sensations from and of our spirit man. Romans 8:14 says that those led by His Spirit are sons of God (not led by need or opportunity or feelings). Some translations render it mature ones. 

When The Greater One  is living on the inside of us, there is no reason to ever be desperate for God, fearful, alone, impoverished or a victim. He is with us (1 John 4:4), guiding, protecting, fellowshipping and encouraging us if we are listening and yielding.

I challenge you to look at the New Testament, especially the epistles, with new eyes. See Him in you, not way out somewhere waiting to be summoned. He is in us and we are in Him.

• Colossians 3:3  you are hid in Him
• Acts 17:28  In Him we live, move, have our being
• Ephesians 1:4 we were chosen in Him
• Colossians 2:6 we are to walk in Him
• 1 John 4:13 We know that we live in Him and He in us because He has given us His Spirit.

We don't need a touch from God, we don't have to chase Him. He lives in and with us.

In Romans 8, it says the righteousness which is of faith does not say Lord come down and touch or heal me. Rather it says the Word himself is near me, in my heart and in my mouth, that is the word of faith which we preach. 

As born again Spirit filled, Spirit-led Christians we are inside out people. We must be God inside minded.

Shout:  I am God inside minded, and because He lives in me everything I will ever need is in me. I will yield to and flow with Him! The Kingdom of God and the King Himself is in me, with me and I am walking in the fullness of THE BLESSING now!!

Gods will for all men for all time!

The first words ever spoken to man were - (Be Blessed!) Be fruitful! Multiply! Replenish! Subdue ( ALL lack, sickness, disease, and evil) Have Dominion over EVERYTHING!

(except other men, Be BLESSED  to Be a Blessing) -Gen 1:26

This is God's will for all men, for all time.

EVERYTHING He has  EVER said or done has to be in relation to and in light of these FIRST WORDS.

He never changes.

So now you never ever have to misunderstand or be confused about the intent of anything in the Bible as long as you look at it in the light of , and in relation to THE BLESSING!

Everything Jesus taught and did was in relation to and part of this same BLESSING. All blessings are a part of THE BLESSING.

God is able(willing and ready) to make ALL  *Grace  abound to you,  that you always having all sufficiency at all times may ABOUND to every good work! -2 Cor. 9:8

*God's absolute willingness to treat you, and see you as if you had never sinned

Words are spoken to Bless (empower and change) or to curse..... Choose (words of) Life!

Be BLESSED!

A Prayer for Health and Healing

God’s words are life to us and health to all our flesh. (Prov. 4:22)  As you make this prayer your confession, saying it out loud over and over, it will help build an image of health in your spirit. You will become firmly established in the fact that you are a new creation in Christ Jesus, and you will activate faith in your heart. (Romans 10:17)  God watches over His Word to perform it. (Jeremiah 1:12)  He does what His Word says, and it does not return to Him void. (Isaiah 55:11)  So once your words—backed by faith—match God’s words, you will see healing manifest in your life! Say this...

Father, I come boldly before Your throne to obtain grace to help in time of need. I have confidence in Your Word, and I take hold of Your promises to heal me. According to Isaiah 53:5 and I Peter 2:24, I resist sickness and disease. I speak with my mouth and believe in my heart that I am healed of all sickness and disease.

Your Word says that Jesus bore all my sickness and diseases, and He carried my sorrows, so I receive healing now. I know and declare that Jesus is my Healer. I give You all the praise for providing everything I need to walk in wholeness.

Thank You for satisfying me with long life. Father, I am thankful that You are no respecter of persons. What You do for one, You will do for all who ask and believe by faith.

Satan, I declare to you in the Name of Jesus that you have no authority over me. According to Matthew 18:18 I bind you from operating against me in any way. My life is hidden in Christ. You have no power to bring any part of the curse upon me. I take my stand as one who is redeemed from the curse. So you must flee now! I take my place in God and I resist you. Now Father, I worship You. I give You reverence. I confess with my mouth that Your Word will not return to You void. I praise You for Your protection and for Your goodness upon my life. I thank You that Satan is unable to penetrate that. Thank You for bringing total healing to me. Your Word says whatever I ask in the Name of Jesus will be done for me. So I declare this is done. My healing is complete, in Jesus Name...Amen.

Today is the day!

God loves you so much that He gave Jesus to get you! He wants to be not only God, but your Heavenly Father. If you have not invited Jesus into your heart and life, if you do not know Him as Lord, and savior, you can, right now. Pray this prayer and confession...out loud, loud enough for  your own ears to hear...

"Heavenly Father, I come to You in the Name of Jesus. Your Word says, 'Whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved' according to Acts 2:21. I am calling on You. I pray and ask Jesus to come into my heart and be Lord over my life according to Romans 10:9-10: 'If thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God has raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.' I do that now. I confess that Jesus is Lord, and I believe in my heart that God raised Him from the dead.

"I am now reborn! I am a Christian, a child of Almighty God! I am saved!  Lord, you died for me, I'll live for you! Father, you also said in Your Word in Luke 11:13 'If ye then being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: HOW MUCH MORE shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?'  I'm also  asking You to fill me with the Holy Spirit. Holy Spirit, rise up within me as I praise God. I fully expect to speak with other tongues as You give me the utterance according to Acts 2:4... In Jesus' Name. Amen!"

Begin to praise God for filling you with the Holy Spirit. Speak those words and syllables you receive-not in your own language, but the language given to you by the Holy Spirit. You have to use your own voice. God will not force you to speak. Don't be concerned with how it sounds. It is a heavenly language! Continue with the blessing God has given you and pray in tongues each day.

You are a born-again, Spirit-filled believer. You'll never be the same! Now, tell someone about this, pray and read the bible daily, and attend a bible believing church so that God can bless you so that you can be a blessing!

Jesus' Model and Pattern for Effective Prayer

Matthew 6:9  has been called the Lord’s Prayer. Actually John 17 is the Lord's prayer.

Matthew 6:9 is the disciples prayer and it is really a pattern for us to follow.

In verse 9 Jesus said after (or in) this manner (or pattern) pray... It does not tell us to use these words, rather to use this pattern...

Our Father- this represents Relationship- For prayer to be effective there must be relationship. We are His relations... We are family and He is Father..

I am going to give you 12 Facets of God as Father:

1. Elohim-creator Gen1:1
2. Jehovah-Covenant Father Gen 2:7

Blessed to be a Blessing !

Mark 12 gives a brief glimpse of the earth lease in a parable. It reminds us that God is NOT in control.  He has put us in control.  As He is so are we in this world. (1 John 4:17 b)

God wants everyone saved, healed, and redeemed from lack and death. He has already provided for it. But there are many living without these things. Why? It is not because God is waiting for you to obey all the rules. He'd do it for you if He could! He is not a lawbreaker, and there are spiritual laws in place. God wouldn't break His word even if it were to the devil!

People who are living below or apart from His promises are doing so because they either don't know about them, they don't care about them, or they don't know how to receive them. I will simply avoid the second choice because if they don't care then they are just like the man falling out of a 90 story window who- when asked by someone leaning out the 40th floor window, "How are you doing?" He responds with "doing great so far." They don't know that they don't know.

At creation (Gen 1) God "breathed the breath of life" into Adam. It was not a puff of air! He spoke words to create man just like He did to create the universe! He said Let us make man in our image and likeness (His image means to look just like Him, His likeness means to be and have all the attributes and to function just like Him-death and life are in the power of YOUR tongue!). He also said let them be fruitful, multiply have dominion and authority over everything except other men. These words of creation dominion authority- THE BLESSING - were spoken TO create Adam, THEN they were the first words he heard. Everything God does is to BLESS!

We have been given Authority to receive and Walk in THE BLESSING.  God's original intent was for  the garden of Eden (which He placed in us as well as around us) to be spread throughout the entire world, because He intended to move here - HE STILL DOES!  You and I are to be carriers and distributors of  THE BLESSING! Say it out loud right now, I am a carrier and a distributor of THE  BLESSING! I am Blessed! I am Blessed to be a Blessing!

God Blessed us and told us He would NEVER  be angry with us. His Goodness is everlasting!

Isaiah 54: 8-10

In a little burst of wrath I hid My face from you for a moment, but with age-enduring love and kindness I will have compassion and mercy on you, says the Lord, your Redeemer. For this is like the days of Noah to Me; as I swore that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth, so have I sworn that I will not be angry with you or rebuke you. For though the mountains should depart and the hills be shaken or removed, yet My love and kindness shall not depart from you, nor shall My covenant of peace and completeness be removed, says the Lord, Who has compassion on you.

God is Good all the time!

God is our source!

God is our source. He is our ever-present, always willing, and always loving Father. Psalms 34:10 declares that there is no good thing that He will withhold from us.
 

Yet for us there is [only] one God, the Father, Who is the Source of all things and for Whom we [have life], and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through and by Whom are all things and through and by Whom we [ourselves exist] (1 Corinthians 8:6). I have known to some degree that God is my source of life, wisdom and salvation for several years. Recently the Lord has been demonstrating to such a remarkable degree that He is my only source, my provider, my healer, and my peace-nothing broken or missing-in any dimension or facet of my life.

 

2 Corinthians 1:3, Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of sympathy (pity and mercy) and the God [Who is the Source] of every comfort (consolation and encouragement). He is my source of encouragement! He is the Living Word, and therefore the author, finisher, and Source of my faith! Hebrews 12:2 Looking away [from all that will distract] to Jesus, Who is the Leader and the Source of our faith [giving the first incentive for our belief] and is also its Finisher [bringing it to maturity and perfection].

 

The Lord is our source and provider of all good things. He is remarkably encouraging and full of mercy. There have been numerous times when I have missed an instruction, or moved without His agreement and yet amazingly, His response is to give me mercy and grace. His loving way is always to help me to make a course correction. I am reminded of the lyrics to an old hymn that says, "He knew me, Yet He loved me, when He was on the cross, I was on His mind". The story of Jonah is a good illustration of how God remained committed to Jonah's success, and purpose. You can surely trust that He is the same with us. Those who pay regard to false, useless, and worthless idols forsake their own [Source of] mercy and loving-kindness. But as for me, I will sacrifice to You with the voice of thanksgiving; I will pay that which I have vowed. Salvation and deliverance belong to the Lord! (Jonah 2:7-9) God has a strategy and a specific key to unlocking every situation. This is true financially, physically, and spiritually. Our part is to be available to Him and willing to allow Him to be our first and only source.

I truly enjoy golf and occasionally I have the opportunity to play! Last week I asked a couple of friends to go with me after work. They all said that it was going to rain. They were right according to the forecast. It had been raining all week. However, in Psalm 34:7 the Lord said that if I delighted myself in Him that He would give me the desires of my heart. I was prompted by my Source to pray. "Lord I know we need the moisture. However I declare that rain will not interrupt our golfing this day...in Jesus Name." My friends said they agreed but when the afternoon came it was raining hard and dark gray clouds were all around. Most of them cancelled. I said, "I know my Source and I trust Him. I am not moved." I was fully persuaded...and a marvelous thing happened. As I got nearer to the golf course the rain and dark clouds were intense, yet there was a large patch of blue, sky right over the golf course. We played, and then practiced afterwards all the while staying dry. As we were getting into our cars, it began to sprinkle on us. The entire time it had been raining in the surrounding areas.

God is our source for everything good, and while this little golf outing was not a huge matter, like so many of the provisions and protections that He gives freely, it reminded me that He takes pleasure in the outpouring of His goodness on our lives. It is vital that we not only look first to Him but also to trust our loving Father as our only source. It has helped me to remember that grace is His absolute willingness to use His power and ability on our behalf.

God is a Father who desires to commune and communicate as well as answer prayers simply because of His unconditional love for us. Your prayer is not getting Him to do something; it is laying hold of His highest willingness. What do you need, or desire? Ask Him today. He will undoubtedly have more, and better for you than you can possibly ask or think.

Understanding Prosperity

Throughout the Word, God plainly shows that His will is for His covenant people to have a surplus of prosperity.   He promised to make Abraham rich, and the promise of Abraham is ours today (Galatians 3:13-14; Genesis 17:6).  God’s will is prosperity for you—spirit, soul and body.   It is important to learn and apply true Bible prosperity to your own life.

 

Matthew 6:33; James 2:14-17; John 14:21; 2 Corinthians 9:9

True prosperity is the ability to use God’s ability and power to meet the needs of mankind—regardless of what those needs may be.

 

Romans 8:2; Luke 4:18, 6:27-38

Spiritual prosperity is freedom from the law of sin and death.  To be born again and filled with the Holy Spirit puts you in the position to receive from God all the things promised in His word.

 

2 Corinthians 10:5; 3 John 2-4; Philippians 4:7; 1 Thessalonians 5:14

To prosper mentally (in your soul), you must be able to control your mind, your will and your emotions. Prosperity of the mind comes when you use the knowledge you have accumulated from the Word of God—when you are controlling your mind, instead of allowing your mind to control you.

 

1 Peter 2:24; Mark 16:15-20; Luke 6:38; 2 Corinthians 9:8

Physical prosperity is twofold—health and wealth. Jesus redeemed us from the curse of the law—sickness, poverty and death (Deuteronomy 28:15-61). Health and wealth belong to the believer. Meditation on the Word and acting on the Word will bring results (Joshua 1:8). When you act on the Word, mix your faith with it and do not doubt in your heart, the Word will work for you.

 

What produces spiritual, mental and physical prosperity?  What brings all these areas together? The Word of God. Hebrews 4:12 says the Word is alive, powerful and sharper than any two-edged sword. It divides the soul and the spirit, the joints and the marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. When you are walking in the Word of God, you will prosper and be in health.

 

We cannot settle for prosperity in the physical or mental realm only, just as we cannot settle for spiritual prosperity alone. We can’t afford to be lazy and to discount physical and mental prosperity simply because we are saved and filled with the Holy Spirit. It is God’s will for us to be made whole—spirit, soul and body—and to be kept that way until the return of our Lord Jesus Christ (1 Thessalonians 5:23).

 

As you walk in the light of God’s Word, you will become prosperous in every area of your life. (3 John 2)

BLESSED !!!

Real victory is walking( or living continuously) in the Fullness of THE BLESSING.
 

DONT grow weary in well doing, keep sowing, keep giving, remain faithful, God is working on something, and He IS trying to get it to you (trying to get you to receive!) Your part is to be FULLY persuaded, trusting, expecting, and confessing your victory NOW.......We walk in the fullness of T H E BLESSING!! (Romans 15:29) The same Blessing that was pronounced in Eden, on Noah... Abraham... Isaac…. Jacob......  The same Blessing Jesus pronounced on His disciples, The BLESSING… The covenant...the anointing.

 

May the God of ALL hope so fill you with all joy and peace in believing that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound and be overflowing with hope. (Romans 15:13)

 

Guard with ALL DILIGENCE what YOU ALLOW into your gates (eyes, ears, and OUT OF YOUR MOUTH) guard your heart(spirit) for out of it springs the forces of life.  Don't allow words , music, or images that are crosswise to your source (Gods Word, Spirit and His ways of health provision, future, &destiny.)

The key to receiving is Seek, aim at, go full force, first..FIRST, and MOST, after God's ways of doing, and thinking, speaking and being right and THEN, all else you need... and want...WILL be added and multiplied to you!  (Matthew 6:33)

 

Fear Not...ONLY Believe...and (it shall be done for you).  Fear tolerated is faith contaminated.  Perfected (mature, growing) Love casts out ALL fear... Faith works BY Love. Love (the spiritual FORCE of Love) Never Fails!  What you (continually) confess you will possess.

Wisdom is not part of the principle....Wisdom IS THE PRINCIPLE THING… THEREFORE GET WISDOM!

In all thy getting GET UNDERSTANDING!  The wisdom of God is to be cherished above ALL ELSE!

 

Father God...increase our capacity to RECEIVE your wisdom for all situtions, circumstances and opportunities THIS DAY.  JESUS IS LORD!

 

Jesus is Lord... and whatEVER your situation... symptom.... strife... or stress you are facing today MUST bow down and submit to the name of Jesus!

 

Declare victory in Jesus name today, right now , and celebrate.... HE delights in the total life prosperity of His children!!  Eye has not seen, ear has not heard all the things that God has prepared for us (here and now, as well as in eternity).... BUT HE has REVEALED them to us by HIS SPIRIT!!!

Praise God who ALWAYS causes us to triumph in Christ! There is NO THING in this world order (spiritually, physically, financially) that we cannot overcome, change, or rule and reign over by our faith in His faithfulness.  There is no exception to the TRUTH that ALL Power belongs to GOD… and that we have received that power and authority... in the NAME....of Jesus.

Abraham’s blessing is the Eden Blessing! Cursed is everyone that hangs on a tree (cross) SO THAT -THE BLESSING may come upon the Gentiles (you and I) - Galatians 3.  WE are joint heirs with Jesus and heirs according to THE BLESSING! We're not blessed because we're healthy or rich or healed, WE ARE Healed, HEALTHY, and RICH BECAUSE WE'RE BLESSED!

DREAM ON!

Bathe your imagination with your dream (fulfilled)! Draw pictures of yourself in the middle of your (fulfilled) dream.

 

Let it get Big!

 

See your dream become hope and take upon itself faith.

 

You'll begin to expect it to come to pass (sooner, not later). That's when the dream becomes Bible Hope (intense expectation that it's coming to pass now)!  Act and talk as though it has already come to pass! Faith- the substance of things hoped for- is transferring what is already done in the spirit world into the natural world where you need it. (Hebrews 11:1)

 

Let Your Dream Machine go to work!

 

Begin now helping someone else achieve their dreams, it works in your favor. Start right where you are, Don't wait for right timing or circumstances.....Don't wait until you can start big. Small beginnings are GIANT BLESSINGS When they're mixed with faith, love AND CONSISTENT, RIGHT NOW action.

There is greatness in you!!

 

Greater is He who lives in you than he that lives in the world! (1 John 4:4)

 

Dream Big!   God is in it! That's Big!

 

Be Blessed!

Agape love IS the anointing to prosper

God doesn’t just have love, GOD  IS  LOVE, Unconditional love is what  drives everything God does and is, and the  Bible tells us -It is impossible to please God without faith. (Hebrews 11:6)

 

Faith works by Love.  This is how God loves us and how we are to love everyone............... Love is power... and Power is Love.  Love is not a feeling, it is a spiritual force.  Love is a decision, a commitment and Love is an action, and then feelings follow.

 

This is how God loves, and treats us, and He commands us to do the same with others 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 

 

Love suffers long having patience with imperfect people, Love is ever kind and ACTIVE in doing good. Love does not envy, is non possessive, and non competitive, it actually wants others to get ahead, it decreases self for others, does not parade itself, Love does not treat others arrogantly, does not behave rudely, but displays good manners, and courtesy.  Love does not seek its own (insisting on its own rights and demanding precedence) rather it is unselfish. Love is not provoked, irritable or touchy rough or hostile, but is graceful under pressure. Love thinks no evil keeps no record of wrongs done to it, it erases resentments. Love does find fault in the shortcomings of others, spreading an evil, negative report, rather it aggressively advertises the good! Love bears all things puts up with anything, defending and holding other people up.  Love believes the best about others, credits them with good intentions, and is not suspicious. Love hopes all things, never giving up on people, but affirms their future. Love endures all things persevering and remaining loyal to the end. Unconditional love is never defeated, it casts out all fear, and NEVER FAILS.

 

This IS the anointing to prosper spirit, soul, and body, spiritually, physically, and financially...Walk In Love, and prosper!
