Q. What is
it that makes life so incredible?
A. The
fulfilling of it.
What’s that
mean?
You are born
into a world that presents itself through the five senses, touch, taste, sight,
hearing, and smell. To many this is all that is needed to acclimate ourselves
to our environment, to stir up wonder and imagination, the impetus that drives
our passions to compete and succeed.
Many of the
most fortunate ones will also experience the love of a Mother or Father to add
value or self-esteem. Knowing that you
are precious to someone is one of the “foundation” building blocks of life.
This is a comfort that some don’t have through family or friends so lasting
peace is hard to find with any depth. So is the “way” of this earthly home, “senses
to experience” and “love to rest in” or have peace. This fulfills the basics of
the carnal side. Our “reality”.
But
certainly, there is more:
Participating
in life as wonderous as it may seem does not make it “incredible”. What’s Truly
incredible is the realization and participation in True Life, as God has
designed it, both in this creation and in the spiritual realm where God meets
man.
God’s design
for life “and that more abundantly” is all inclusively saturated “in Him”. The
carnal must transform into the spirit in order to become complete according to
God’s design.
God knew you
“before you were”. Really knew you. Your
countenance, all your body members, your thoughts, your actions, your
decisions, your personality and your attitude. He knew you intimately “before”.
God then “called”
you into being. He opens and closes the womb. According to your due arrival
time you were conceived. You were born into His creation in which Scripture say’s
“He fills”. You were in His heart before birth, born into His creation at
birth, and attended to throughout life by Him.
According to
your “personality” He crafted the choices in life that you would be given to
guide you back to Him. Romans 11:36 “for of Him and through Him and to Him are
all things”. Before you did one thing right or wrong God Unconditionally Loved
and cherished you. That was God’s plan for your birth and continuance here in His
creation.
The whole journey
and purpose of passage through this life is to come back to knowing and fellowship with Him.
Before you
did one thing right or wrong God Unconditionally Loved and cherished you. That
was God’s plan for your birth and continuance here in His creation. The small “span”
of life we enjoy here was not for glory, wealth, mastery, it was for the “soul”
purpose of “finding our way back to our Creator” according to His Scripture/Word.
So He “for
knew” us.
He “opened”
the womb and called us forth.
He “designed”
our experience here to guide us back to His Love and forgiveness.
He “gave” us
the Word of God as a map to direct us.
Then He gave
us the Holy Spirit to empower us to make the journey with purpose.
He provided
us with all things necessary from start to finish to make our “lives” complete
in Him.
No matter
where you are in this creation we all have the same purpose: fellowship with
our Creator.
We leave our
carnal side of life and start living in the spirit when we are “born again”
according to the Scriptures. Having come to repentance by the Holy Spirit we “confess
with our mouths Jesus is Lord” and “believe with our hearts that God raised Him
from the dead” and we are saved. We begin the journey of dying to ourselves and
living for Jesus by walking in the Spirit. His Word is the manuscript that “lays
out” the things to be aware of so that the Holy Spirit can direct us and
empower us to “do His will”. The more that we die to ourselves and our desires
and live obedient to Christ, (His Word and Spirit), the richer and more
intimate our fellowship with our Father in Heaven will become making this life
productive and complete.
Just a note
here: Nothing in Scripture is optional! “All Scripture is God breathed” which
means that it’s writing was done without error and just the way God intended us
to accomplish it with the help of the Holy Spirit. Of course, if we try to accomplish
it without His help we will fail and have to make up excuses of why we fail. “Let
God be true and every man a liar” Romans 3:4. God’s rules, God’s ways, God’s
Spirit brings to manifestation God’s promises just as God’s Word says it would.
Any change in any one of these “pre-cursers” and all you have is the “works of
man” or worse yet the weak and feeble “doctrines” of man. Which today is called
“religious actions” having no basis in the Scriptures but originating in lies.
Man cannot accomplish the things of God with power by striving in the flesh. No
matter how good they look or seem they fall short of the “glory of God”.
The whole
intent of this obedience to Scripture by the Spirit is to free us from the
flesh and empower us by His Spirit to live in fellowship with God in heavenly
place regardless of where these bodies for the time being. “Walk in the Spirit
and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh”. Walk in the Spirit and God
will make every precious promise that He gave us in Christ come to fruition for
the edifying of the Body of Christ, the manifestation of God’s Love for our
fellow man, and the proof that He is the Way, the Truth and the Life for all to
witness.
We are born
for the sole purpose of being “born again” so that we can be brought (by His Spirit)
back into fellowship with our Father in Heaven and experience eternal life. When
we are filled with His Spirit (baptized in the Holy Spirit) our lives will be
enriched with power while here and completed in Christ when He calls us home to
Heaven.
God bless and
keep.
Love
J&E
