New Creation/Heavenly Realities

New creation realities.

"Be not content to have them (scriptures) in the Bible for reference, but have them transferred by careful study, by meditation and by prayer, by a loving acceptance, by the Spirit’s teaching, to the fleshly tables of the heart.” Andrew Murray
For as James writes in 1:22 "But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves."
It's not enought to have verses memorized only, we need to be living them.
Hear the Word,
Believe the Word
Become the Word
If any man be in Christ, he is a new creation. Old things pass away, look intently and realize all things have become new. paraphrase of 2Cor.5:17
Stop living according to the old man, and begin to live according to who you are in Christ. Let go of the old habits and addictions and start new.
God's mercies are new every morning. Every day brings forth opportunities to live as Followers of the Way (Jesus).
The question is are you really following Jesus or playing 'church'?
Who is your God, and what difference has He made in your actions and life?
Is He God, or are you still on the throne, living just as you please?
Jesus never died on the Cross to have 'church'. He died to give people a chance to reconnect with God. To become one with Him(them..Father, Son, Holy Spirit). Then live above the sins of this world in complete freedom and access to Heavenly promises.
How long will the precious ones (those who call themselves Christians)live below the realities of what Jesus has purchased?
Freedom from all the curses brought about by the fall of Adam. Freedom from being a slave to sin and all it's forms.
Freedom from sicknesses that cause dis-ease.
Freedom from the negative thoughts that the enemy has sown into your spirit/soul.
Jesus is Love, and He perfectly made a Way for all those who believe to enter into Heavenly realities. There are thousands of scriptures that set out His promises, yet how many take hold of them as Truth and walk out their Salvation.
Scriptures are read every day by well meaning christians and yet not meditated on. They read them but nothing changes in their thinking or their actions. Ask the Lord to reveal the wisdom in His Word, take the time really think and pray about what you have read. Ask for the veil to be lifted from your minds and insight be given to your hearts.
God is looking for His people to take the Kingdom by force. Make a demand upon circumstances that are contrary to the promises given in His Word, and see them change, meaning miracles must happen. It is the right of a believer to expect miracles.
To every man has been given the measure of Faith. Take hold of the Life of God, and put to death the deads of the flesh.
Remember the warning given in the Scriptures from the book of Hebrews: Heb 4:2 For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them,not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.
Faith comes by hearing and hearing, repetition of the Word until it gets deep inside the spirit of a man, then wisdom has it's well of living water which brings life into any situation.
Does the scriptures not say:
My people perish because of the devil?..No!
My people perish because of sin?..No!
My people perish because of money?..No!
It does say however, "that My people perish because of lack of knowledge."
Not having knowledge of the promises, and being an alien to the commenwealth of the Kingdom of God, leaves you without hope for something better. Without hope for the Promises purchased for you by Jesus, when He shed His blood on the Cross. When by the Holy Spirit the temple veil was torn from the top to the bottom, signifying access to the Heavenlies was opened.
Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus,
Heb 10:20 By a new and living way,which he hath consecrated for us,through the veil,that is to say,His flesh;
Heb 10:21 And having an high priest over the house of God;
Heb 10:22 Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience,and our bodies washed with pure water.
This is the assurance of a better covenant. Better Promises. Unlimited access to God, His Love, His Word, His Wisdom, His house is now your house.
Dig into the promises of God, do not take the lies of the devil any longer. Do not take as truth your lifestyle and old habits. Let them go and grab hold of a new and living way.
Be strong and courageous, fight the good fight of Faith, and take back all that is yours to possess.
It is the Fathers good will to give you the Kingdom. Luke 12:32
Amen.
