A NEW SEASON OF FAITH 1-30-22

A season in the Bible means an appointed time, special time, a new chance to try again. It is a time to plant new seeds of faith again expecting a good harvest. The faith we have moves mountains. In this new season of faith we must not think like the world thinks. The Bible tells us about the measure of faith not saving faith but faith that is required for each one in the body of Christ to move forward in their gift from God. Faith gives confidence and grace to fulfill their role in the body of Christ. Jesus taught about faith. He gives people the opportunity to try again. We’re in the season of trying again. Maybe we did not see the results we wanted in the past but we are given a do over to try again. Faith is not just trust . We can say we trust God and “one day we will see what we have asked for come to pass faith” but really faith is alive now. It has wings and feet and power.

Eccl 3:1 TO EVERYTHING there is a season, and a time for every matter or purpose under heaven:  AMP

Eccl 3:1 There’s an opportune time to do things, a right time for everything on the earth: MSG

Gal 6:9 So let’s not allow ourselves to get fatigued doing good. At the right time we will harvest a good crop if we don’t give up, or quit.

10 Right now, therefore, every time we get the chance, let us work for the benefit of all, starting with the people closest to us in the community of faith. MSG

MATT 13:8 But other seeds fell on good, rich soil that kept producing a good harvest. Some yielded thirty, some sixty, and some even one hundred times as much as he planted!

⁹ If you’re able to understand this, then you need to respond.” TPT

LUKE 8:8 Yet some of the seeds fell into good, fertile soil, and they grew and flourished until they produced more than a hundredfold harvest, a bumper crop.” Then Jesus added, shouting out to all who would hear, “Listen with your heart and you will understand!”   TPT

▼▼▼

LUKE 8:8 But the seed which lands in good soil, flourishes and yields a return of a hundred to one! He then cried out with a loud voice, “Now listen up with your inner ears! It is how you hear my word that makes all the difference!”    MIRROR

MARK 11:20 In the morning, they passed by the fig tree that Jesus spoke to and it was completely withered from the roots up.

²¹ Peter remembered and said to him, “Teacher, look! That’s the fig tree you cursed. It’s now all shriveled up and dead.”

²² Jesus replied, “Let the faith of God be in you!

²³ Listen to the truth I speak to you: Whoever says to this mountain with great faith and does not doubt, ‘Mountain, be lifted up and thrown into the midst of the sea, and believes that what he says will happen, it will be done.

²⁴ This is the reason I urge you to boldly believe for whatever you ask for in prayer—be convinced that you have received it and it will be yours.

²⁵ And whenever you stand praying, if you find that you carry something in your heart against another person, release him and forgive himso that your Father in heaven will also release you and forgive you of your faults.  TPT

ROM 12:2 Stop imitating the ideals and opinions of the culture around you, but be inwardly transformed by the Holy Spirit through a total reformation of how you think. This will empower you to discern God’s will as you live a beautiful life, satisfying and perfect in his eyes. TPT

▼▼▼

Rom 12:2 Do not be conformed to this world (this age), [fashioned after and adapted to its external, superficial customs], but be transformed (changed) by the [entire] renewal of your mind [by its new ideals and its new attitude], so that you may prove [for yourselves] what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God, even the thing which is good and acceptable and perfect [in His sight for you].  AMP

Rom 12:3 For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.

4 For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office:

5 So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another.

6 Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith;

7 Or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teacheth, on teaching;

8 Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, let him do it with simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness.  KJV

ROM 12:3-8 God has given me grace to speak a warning about pride. I would ask each of you to be emptied of self-promotion and not create a false image of your importance. Instead, honestly assess your worth by using your God-given faith as the standard of measurement, and then you will see your true value with an appropriate self-esteem.

⁴ In the human body there are many parts and organs, each with a unique function. ⁵ And so it is in the body of Christ. For though we are many, we’ve all been mingled into one body in Christ. This means that we are all vitally joined to one another, with each contributing to the others.

⁶ God’s marvelous grace imparts to each one of us varying gifts. So if God has given you the grace-gift of prophecy, activate your gift by using the proportion of faith you have to prophesy.

⁷ If your grace-gift is serving, then thrive in serving others well. If you have the grace-gift of teaching, then be actively teaching and training others.

⁸ If you have the grace-gift of encouragement, then use it often to encourage others. If you have the grace-gift of giving to meet the needs of others, then may you prosper in your generosity without any fanfare. If you have the gift of leadership, be passionate about your leadership. And if you have the gift of showing compassion, then flourish in your cheerfuldisplay of compassion.TPT

HEB 12:2-3 We look away from the natural realm and we focus our attention and expectationonto Jesus who birthed faith within us and who leads us forward into faith’s perfection. His example is this: Because his heart was focused on the joy of knowing that you would be his, he endured the agony of the cross and conquered its humiliation, and now sits exalted at the right hand of the throne of God!

³ So consider carefully how Jesus faced such intense opposition from sinners who opposed their own souls, so that you won’t become worn down and cave in under life’s pressures.  TPT

HEB 12:2 Look away from the shadow dispensation of the law and the Prophets and fix your eyes upon Jesus. He is the fountainhead and conclusion of faith. He saw the joy [of mankind’s salvation] when he braved the cross and despised the shame of it. As the executive authority of God he now occupies the highest seat of dominion to endorse mankind’s innocence!  

3 Ponder how he overcame all the odds stacked against him; this will boost your soul-energy when you feel exhausted.  MIRROR

MATT 17:20 He told them, “It was because of your lack of faith. I promise you, if you have faith inside of you no bigger than the size of a small mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move away from here and go over there,’ and you will see it move! There is nothing you couldn’t do! TPT

▼▼▼

Matt 17:20 He said to them, Because of the littleness of your faith [that is, your lack of firmly relying trust]. For truly I say to you, if you have faith [that is living] like a grain of mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, Move from here to yonder place, and it will move; and nothing will be impossible to you.  AMP

JOHN 6:47  “I speak to you living truth: Unite your heart to me and believe—and you will experience eternal life!TPT

JOHN 6:47 Of absolute certainty do I declare to you that anyone whose faith ultimately rests in who I really am, in this one the life of the ages resonates.   MIRROR

John 10:37  If I don’t do the things my Father does, well and good; don’t believe me.

38 But if I am doing them, put aside for a moment what you hear me say about myself and just take the evidence of the actions that are right before your eyes. Then perhaps things will come together for you, and you’ll see that not only are we doing the same thing, we are the same — Father and Son. He is in me; I am in him.”  MSG

HEB 11:1 Now faith brings our hopes into reality and becomes the foundation needed to acquire the things we long for. It is all the evidence required to prove what is still unseen.

² This testimony of faith is what previous generationswere commended for.

³ Faith empowers us to see that the universe was created and beautifully coordinatedby the power of God’s words! He spoke and the invisible realm gave birth to all that is seen.  TPT

▼▼▼

HEB 11:1 Persuasion confirms confident expectation and proves the unseen world to be more real than the seen. Faith celebrates as certain what hope visualizes as future.  

2 People of previous generations received the testimony of their hope in faith. It was faith that made their hope tangible.  

3 Faith alone explains what is not apparent to the natural eye; how the ages were perfectly framed by the Word of God. Now we understand that everything visible has its origin in the invisible. MIRROR

2 TIM 1:5 I rejoice in the pure faith that I see in you. Remember that you are the third generation of a strong lineage of faith. The same unwavering persuasion that indwelt your grandmother Lois also resides in your mother Eunice and is now abundantly evident in you.

6 This gives me all the more reason to remind you to fan the flame of God’s grace gift within you into a blazing hot fire. Your life and ministry mirrors mine; I endorsed the gift of God‘s boldness within you when I laid my hands on you.

7 Become fully acquainted with his gift in you, there is nothing timid about it; the dynamic of a mind liberated in the spirit of love is fearless and unstoppable.  MIRROR

Heb 4:14 Inasmuch then as we have a great High Priest Who has [already] ascended and passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession [of faith in Him].  AMP

HEB 10:38 And he also says, “My righteous ones will live from my faith. But if fear holds them back, my soul is not content with them!”

³⁹ But we are certainly not those who are held back by fear and perish; we are among those who have faith and experience true life. TPT

JAMES 2:14 My dear brothers and sisters, what good is it if someone claims to have faith but demonstrates no good works to prove it? How could this kind of faith save anyone?

¹⁵ For example, if a brother or sister in the faith is poorly clothed and hungry

¹⁶ and you leave them saying, “Good-bye. I hope you stay warm and have plenty to eat,” but you don’t provide them with a coat or even a cup of soup, what good is your faith?

¹⁷ So then faith that doesn’t involve action is phony.

¹⁸ But someone might object and say, “One person has faith and another person has works.” Go ahead then and prove to me that you have faith without works and I will show you faith by my works as proof that I believe.

¹⁹ You can believe all you want that there is one true God, that’s wonderful! But even the demons know this and tremble with fear before him, yet they’re unchanged—they remain demons.

²⁰ O feeble sons of Adam, do you need further evidence that faith divorced from good works is phony?  TPT

▼▼▼

JAMES 2:14 My friends, if your faith [in your true identity] is not practical and visible in your conduct it is fake and cannot benefit you in any way.

15 Let’s bring it closer to home, someone in your own family might be struggling financially to the extent that they do not even have the basics as far as clothes and food are concerned.

16 What’s the good if you keep your contact with them very brief and distant and wave them goodbye with empty words, something like, “May the Lord richly bless you brother! Be warm, be fed, ok, bye! Have a great day!” A coat and a cup of soup is going to say so much more!

17 It is clear then that without corresponding acts of kindness, faith on its own is fake.

18 Faith is not in competition with works; the one cannot operate without the other. Faith remains invisible without action; indeed the only way to communicate faith is in doing the things prompted and inspired by faith.

19 Congratulations! So you believe in one God; so do demons; however, their belief in God doesn’t change them it just gives them the shivers.

20 Hey man, if you have nothing to show for your faith your faith is meaningless; it remains a dead doctrine.  MIRROR

2 TIM 4:7 Like a champion athlete I have run my race and completed the course; I have carefully attended to the faith!  

8 My wreath of righteousness awaits me as testimony to the Lord’s righteous judgment. He will crown me in that day, the moment I step out of this body. I will not be the only one receiving a wreath of honor; everyone, loving the brilliance of his appearing will be jointly crowned!  MIRROR

▼▼▼

2 TIM 4:7 I have fought an excellent fight. I have finished my full course with all my might and I’ve kept my heart full of faith.

⁸ There’s a crown of righteousness waiting in heaven for me, and I know that my Lord will reward me on his day of righteous judgment. And this crown is not only waiting for me, but for all who love and long for his unveiling. TPT

Matt 9:29 He touched their eyes and said, “Become what you believe.”  MSG

MERCY AND TRUTH MARRY EACHOTHER  1/28/2022 video I never felt so loved

Mercy and truth speak to us in this season. It is a time to remind us of the faithfulness of the Father. Truth is a quality that is the very nature of God himself. It is the quality of being true. In these days of lies, it is confusion to know what really is true, holy and of a good report. The truth is: mankind is made in the image and likeness of God. Jesus came to redeem mankind into the reality of who they truly are. Mercy means compassion or love expressed in a tangible way. It is a part of God‘s nature and one He requires His children to act or imitate Him in. God‘s mercy unlike human mercy cannot be exhausted.

KISS-signified a death of the past, a renewal of self, and a rebirth into a higher world.

PS 85:9 For I know your power and presence shines on all your devoted lovers. Your glory always hovers over all who bow low before you.
¹⁰ Your mercy and your truth have married each other. Your righteousness and peace have kissed.11 Flowers of your faithfulness are blooming on the earth. Righteousness shines down from the sky.¹² Yes, the Lord keeps raining down blessing after blessing, and prosperity will drench the land with a bountiful harvest.
¹³ For deliverancegoes before him, preparing a path for his steps. TPT

Ps 85:9 Surely His salvation is near to those who reverently and worshipfully fear Him, [and is ready to be appropriated] that [the manifest presence of God, His] glory may tabernacle and abide in our land.

10 Mercy and loving-kindness and truth have met together; righteousness and peace have kissed each other.

11 Truth shall spring up from the earth, and righteousness shall look down from heaven.

12 Yes, the Lord will give what is good, and our land will yield its increase.

13 Righteousness shall go before Him and shall make His footsteps a way in which to walk.  AMP

1 TIM 1:13 Mercy kissed me, even though I used to be a blasphemer, a persecutor of believers, and a scorner of what turned out to be true. I was ignorant and didn’t know what I was doing.

14 I was flooded with such incredible grace, like a river overflowing its banks, until I was full of faith and love for Jesus, the Anointed One! TPT

LUKE 1:49 The Mighty One has worked a mighty miracle for me; holy is his name!

ROM 3:25 Jesus’ God-given destinywas to be the sacrifice to take away sins, and now he is our mercy seatbecause of his death on the cross.

This is the perfect demonstration of God’s justice, because until now, he had been so patient—holding back his justice out of his tolerance for us. So he covered overthe sins of those who lived prior to Jesus’ sacrifice.

²⁶ And when the season of tolerance came to an end, there was only one possible way for God to give away his righteousness and still be true to both his justice and his mercy—to offer up his own Son. So now, because we stand on the faithfulness of Jesus, God declares us righteous in his eyes!TPT

The king of eternity has written your life’s book: A message by James Case

11/21/2022

1. Lets Start from the beginning

ETERNITY- A state to which time has no application.

Psalm 139:16

New Living Translation

16 You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed.

Psalm 139:16

The Passion Translation 16 You saw who you created me to be before I became me![a] Before I’d ever seen the light of day, the number of days you planned for me were already recorded in your book.

Isaiah 43:1

The Passion Translation

Promise of Restoration

43 Now, this is what Yahweh says:

“Listen, Jacob, to the One who created you, Israel, to the one who shaped who you are.[a] Do not fear, for I, your Kinsman-Redeemer, will rescue you.

I have called you by name, and you are mine.

NEW CREATION 1-16-22  VIDEO

What does this mean? It means we consider ourselves as well as our brothers and sisters in the body of Christ as brand-new. No longer looking at others from what they were but now we consider and treat them for who they are. This goes for ourselves also. We have been resurrected into a new life. God did not clean up our old nature nor do we. We have a new nature. It is a gift given to whoever believes. As a new creation we have unbroken fellowship with Christ and with one another.

2 Cor 5:16 Consequently, from now on we estimate and regard no one from a [purely] human point of view [in terms of natural standards of value]. [No] even though we once did estimate Christ from a human viewpoint and as a man, yet now [we have such knowledge of Him that] we know Him no longer [in terms of the flesh].

17 Therefore if any person is [ingrafted] in Christ (the Messiah) he is a new creation (a new creature altogether); the old [previous moral and spiritual condition] has passed away. Behold, the fresh and new has come!

18 But all things are from God, Who through Jesus Christ reconciled us to Himself [received us into favor, brought us into harmony with Himself] and gave to us the ministry of reconciliation [that by word and deed we might aim to bring others into harmony with Him].  AMP

▼▼▼

2 Cor 5:16 Because of this decision we don’t evaluate people by what they have or how they look. We looked at the Messiah that way once and got it all wrong, as you know. We certainly don’t look at him that way anymore.

17 Now we look inside, and what we see is that anyone united with the Messiah gets a fresh start, is created new. The old life is gone; a new life burgeons! Look at it!

18 All this comes from the God who settled the relationship between us and him, and then called us to settle our relationships with each other.  MSG

 ▼▼▼

2 COR 5:16 Therefore, from now on, I no longer know anyone according to the flesh! I no longer see people from a human point of view! This is a radical and most defining moment! No label that could possibly previously identify someone carries any further significance! Even our pet doctrines of Christ are redefined. Whatever we knew about him historically or sentimentally is challenged by this conclusion.

17 Now, in the light of your co-inclusion in his death and resurrection, whoever you thought you were before, in Christ you are a brand new person! The old ways of seeing yourself and everyone else are over. Acquaint yourself with the new!

18 The idea of mankind’s co-inclusion in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ is entirely God’s doing! To now realize that God has indeed brought final closure to the old and for us to see everything and everyone in this new light is to simply see what God has always known to be true about us in Christ; we are not debating human experience, opinion, or their contribution; this is exactly what God believes. In Jesus Christ, God exchanged equivalent value to redeem us to himself. He went to the highest extreme in this act of reconciliation to persuade us of our original worth! This, God has given us as the mandate of our ministry.  MIRROR

EPH 4:24 And to be transformed as you embrace the glorious Christ-within as your new life and live in union with him! For God has re-created you all over again in his perfect righteousness, and you now belong to him in the realm of true holiness.  TPT

AMP

Acts 20:32 And now [brethren], I commit you to God [I deposit you in His charge, entrusting you to His protection and care]. And I commend you to the Word of His grace [to the commands and counsels and promises of His unmerited favor]. It is able to build you up and to give you [your rightful] inheritance among all God’s set-apart ones (those consecrated, purified, and transformed of soul).  AMP

ROM 8:23 And it’s not just creation. We who have already experienced the firstfruits of the Spiritalso inwardly groan as we passionately long to experience our full status as God’s sons and daughters—including our physical bodies being transformed.

²⁴ For this is the hope of our salvation. But hope means that we must trust and wait for what is still unseen. For why would we need to hope for something we already have?

²⁵ So because our hope is set on what is yet to be seen, we patiently keep on waiting for its fulfillment. TPT

▼▼▼

ROM 8:23 We ourselves feel the grief echo of their groaning within us while we are ready to embrace the original blueprint also of our physical stature to the full consequence of sonship. What we already now participate in as first fruits of the spirit, will bloom into a full gathering of the harvest.    

24 For what we already experience confirms our hope and continues to fuel our expectation for what we still cannot see. In the final visible completeness of the harvest, hope has fulfilled its function.

25 In the meantime our expectation takes us beyond visual confirmation into a place of patient contentment. MIRROR

ROM 12:2 Stop imitating the ideals and opinions of the culture around you, but be inwardly transformed by the Holy Spirit through a total reformation of how you think. This will empower you to discern God’s will as you live a beautiful life, satisfying and perfect in his eyes. TPT

ROM 12:2 Do not allow current religious tradition to mold you into its pattern of reasoning. Like an inspired artist, give attention to the detail of God’s desire to find expression in you. Become acquainted with perfection. To accommodate yourself to the delight and good pleasure of him will transform your thoughts afresh from within.  MIRROR

PHIL 3:10 Oh to comprehend the dynamic of his resurrection! His resurrection is evidence of our righteousness! In the revelation of God’s economy of inclusion, I actually co-suffered with him and co-died together with Christ!

12 To know even as I have always been known!  MIRROR

▼▼▼

PHIL 3:10 And I continually long to know the wonders of Jesus and to experience the overflowing power of his resurrection working in me. I will be one with him in his sufferings and become like him in his death.

11 Only then will I be able to experience complete oneness with him in his resurrection from the realm of death.

12 I admit that I haven’t yet acquired the absolute fullness that I’m pursuing, but I run with passion into his abundance so that I may reach the purpose for which Christ Jesus laid hold of me to make me his own.  TPT

Rom 6:6 We know that our old (unrenewed) self was nailed to the cross with Him in order that [our] body [which is the instrument] of sin might be made ineffective and inactive for evil, that we might no longer be the slaves of sin.

7 For when a man dies, he is freed (loosed, delivered) from [the power of] sin [among men].

8 Now if we have died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with Him,  AMP

▼▼▼

ROM 6:6 Could it be any clearerthat our former identityis now and forever deprived of its power? For we were co-crucified with him to dismantle the stronghold of sin within us, so that we would not continue to live one moment longer submitted to sin’s power.

⁷ Obviously, a dead person is incapable of sinning.

⁸ And if we were co-crucified with the Anointed One, we know that we will also share in the fullness of his life.   TPT

ROM 6:10 His appointment with death was once-off. As far as sin is concerned, he is dead. The reason for his death was to take away the sin of the world; his life now exhibits our union with the life of God.

11 This reasoning is equally relevant to you. Calculate the cross; there can only be one logical conclusion: he died your death; that means you died to sin, and are now alive to God. Sin-consciousness can never again feature in your future! You are in Christ Jesus; his Lordship is the authority of this union.  MIRROR

▼▼▼

ROM 6:10 For by his sacrifice he died to sin’s power once and for all, but he now lives continuously for the Father’s pleasure.

11 So let it be the same way with you! Since you are now joined with him, you must continually view yourselves as dead and unresponsive to sin’s appeal while living daily for God’s pleasure in union with Jesus, the Anointed One. TPT

▼▼▼

Rom 6:10 For by the death He died, He died to sin [ending His relation to it] once for all; and the life that He lives, He is living to God [in unbroken fellowship with Him].

11 Even so consider yourselves also dead to sin and your relation to it broken, but alive to God [living in unbroken fellowship with Him] in Christ Jesus.  AMP

⁹ And through the revelation of the Anointed One, he unveiled his secret desires to us—the hidden mystery of his long-range plan, which he was delighted to implement from the very beginning of time.

¹⁰ And because of God’s unfailing purpose, this detailed plan will reign supreme through every period of time until the fulfillment of all the ages finally reaches its climax—when God makes all things newin all of heaven and earth through Jesus Christ. TPT

EPH 1:7 Since we are now joined to Christ, we have been given the treasures of redemption by his blood—the total cancellationof our sins—all because of the cascading richesof his grace.

EPH 2:21 This entire building is under construction and is continually growing under his supervision until it rises up completed as the holy temple of the Lord himself.

²² This means that God is transforming each one of you into the Holy of Holies, his dwelling place, through the power of the Holy Spirit living in you! TPT

Col 2:10 And you are in Him, made full and having come to fullness of life [in Christ you too are filled with the Godhead — Father, Son and Holy Spirit — and reach full spiritual stature]. And He is the Head of all rule and authority [of every angelic principality and power].  AMP

ROM 8:35 Who could ever divorce us from the endless love of God’s Anointed One? Absolutely no one! For nothing in the universe has the power to diminish his love toward us. Troubles, pressures, and problems are unable to come between us and heaven’s love. What about persecutions, deprivations, dangers, and death threats? No, for they are all impotent to hinder omnipotent love,

³⁶ even though it is written: All day long we face death threats for your sake, God.
We are considered to be nothing more than sheep to be slaughtered!

³⁷ Yet even in the midst of all these things, we triumph over them all, for God has made us to be more than conquerors, and his demonstrated love is our glorious victory over everything!

³⁸ So now I live with the confidence that there is nothing in the universe with the power to separate us from God’s love. I’m convinced that his love will triumph over death, life’s troubles, fallen angels, or dark rulers in the heavens. There is nothing in our present or future circumstances that can weaken his love.

³⁹ There is no power above us or beneath us—no power that could ever be found in the universe that can distance us from God’s passionate love, which is lavished upon us through our Lord Jesus, the Anointed One. TPT

A Word from God for a Weary World and for My Body of Believers

by Mary Dorian January 9 2022

Isa 44:24 Here is what Yahweh, your Kinsman-Redeemer, who formed you in his womb, has to say:  “I am Yahweh, Creator of all. I alone stretched out the canvas of the cosmos.  I who shaped the earth needed no one’s help. TPT

Isa 44:24  God, your Redeemer,who shaped your life in your mother’s womb, says: “I am God. I made all that is. With no help from you I spread out the skies and laid out the earth.”  MSG

Rom 11:33 Have you ever come on anything quite like this extravagant generosity of God, this deep, deep wisdom? It’s way over our heads. We’ll never figure it out.

34 Is there anyone around who can explain God? Anyone smart enough to tell him what to do?

35 Anyone who has done him such a huge favor that God has to ask his advice?

36 Everything comes from him; Everything happens through him; Everything ends up in him. Always glory! Always praise! Yes. Yes. Yes.  MSG

▼▼▼

Romans 11:33 Who could ever wrap their minds around the riches of God, the depth of his wisdom, and the marvel of his perfect knowledge? Who could ever explain the wonder of his decisionsor search out the mysterious way he carries out his plans?

³⁴ For who has discovered how the Lord thinks or is wise enough to be the one to advise him in his plans?

³⁵ Or: “Who has ever first given something to God  that obligates God to owe him something in return?”

³⁶ For out of him, the sustainer of everything, came everything, and now everything finds fulfillment in him. May all praise and honor be given to him forever! Amen! TPT

1 Cor 8:5 There is a lot of talk about other gods and demonic powers operating on earth as well as in the heavenly realm; obviously they seem to be empowered by people’s belief in them and conversation about them; so there seem to be many gods “lording” it over people.

6 This does not make them competition to God; we know that for us there is only one God who is the source of all things; there is only one authority, the Lord Jesus Christ. All things exist because of him; we owe our very being to him. He alone gives context and reference to our lives.  Mirror

▼▼▼

1 Cor 8:5  Although there may be many so-called gods in this world, and in heaven there may be many “gods,” “lords,” and “masters,”

⁶ yet for us there is only one God—the Father. Out of him is all things, and our lives are lived for him. And there is one Lord, Jesus, the Anointed One, through whom we and all things exist.  TPT

27 Jesus resumed talking to the people, but now tenderly. “The Father has given me all these things to do and say. This is a unique Father-Son operation, coming out of Father and Son intimacies and knowledge. No one knows the Son the way the Father does, nor the Father the way the Son does.

3 The Messiah-message is what has been on the tip of the Father’s tongue all along! Now he is the crescendo of God’s conversation with us and gives context and content to the authentic, prophetic thought. Everything that God had in mind for mankind is voiced in him. Jesus is God’s language. He is the radiant and flawless mirror expression of the person of God. He makes the glorious intent of God visible and exhibits the character and every attribute of Elohim in human form. His being, announces our redeemed innocence; having accomplished purification for sins, he sat down, enthroned in the boundless measure of his majesty in the right and of God as his executive authority. He is the force of the universe, upholding everything that exists. This conversation is the dynamic that sustains the entire cosmos.  Mirror

26 Starting from scratch, he made the entire human race and made the earth hospitable, with plenty of time and space for living

27 so we could seek after God, and not just grope around in the dark but actually find him. He doesn’t play hide-and-seek with us. He’s not remote; he’s near.

28 We live and move in him, can’t get away from him! One of your poets said it well: ‘We’re the God-created.’

29 Well, if we are the God-created, it doesn’t make a lot of sense to think we could hire a sculptor to chisel a god out of stone for us, does it?

30 “God overlooks it as long as you don’t know any better — but that time is past. The unknown is now known, and he’s calling for a radical life-change.

21 Infinitely above all the combined forces of rule, authority, dominion or governments; he is ranked superior to any name that could ever be given to anyone of this age or any age still to come in the eternal future.

22 I want you to see this: he subjected all these powers under his feet. He towers head and shoulders above everything. He is the head;

23 the Ekklesia is his body. The completeness of his being that fills all in all resides in us! God cannot make himself more visible or exhibit himself more accurately. Mirror

2 Peter 3:10 But when the Day of God’s Judgment does come, it will be unannounced, like a thief. The sky will collapse with a thunderous bang, everything disintegrating in a huge conflagration, earth and all its works exposed to the scrutiny of Judgment.

11 Since everything here today might well be gone tomorrow, do you see how essential it is to live a holy life?

12 Daily expect the Day of God, eager for its arrival. The galaxies will burn up and the elements melt down that day —  

13 but we’ll hardly notice. We’ll be looking the other way, ready for the promised new heavens and the promised new earth, all landscaped with righteousness.

14 So, my dear friends, since this is what you have to look forward to, do your very best to be found living at your best, in purity and peace.

15 Interpret our Master’s patient restraint for what it is: salvation. Our good brother Paul, who was given much wisdom in these matters,

16 refers to this in all his letters, and has written you essentially the same thing. Some things Paul writes are difficult to understand. Irresponsible people who don’t know what they are talking about twist them every which way. They do it to the rest of the Scriptures, too, destroying themselves as they do it.

17 But you, friends, are well-warned. Be on guard lest you lose your footing and get swept off your feet by these lawless and loose-talking teachers. 18 Grow in grace and understanding of our Master and Savior, Jesus Christ. Glory to the Master, now and forever! Yes!   MSG

¹¹ Since all these things are on the verge of being dismantled, don’t you see how vital it is to live a holy life? We must be consumed with godliness

7 There is no other gospel in spite of the many so-called Christian products branded “gospel.” If any hint of the law remains, it is not good news but merely religious people’s ideas, detracting from the gospel of Christ.  

8 I and any of my team would stand equally disqualified, even if we claim to have had a celestial messenger visitation, if what we preach were to stray ever so slightly from the Gospel of the finished work of Christ.

9 Let me be blatant and clear about this: any gospel that does not emphasize the success of the cross is counterfeit and produces nothing but the curse!

10 (In sharp contrast to the time when I needed letters of authority from the religious institutions of the day, endorsing my mission) God is my complete persuasion. I answer to him alone, not anyone else. Christ employs me; I am addicted to his grace. Popular religious opinion will not influence me to compromise my message. (What is the point of an impressive CV, when your Maker is not even asking for it?)

11 I want to make it very clear to you my friends that the message I proclaim is not mere speculation or the product of philosophical or religious debate.

12 This is not my own invention, neither was I spoon-fed by human tuition; my source of reference is the unveiled mystery of  Christ in me. Mirror

Matt 24:13 “Staying with it — that’s what God requires. Stay with it to the end. You won’t be sorry, and you’ll be saved.

14 All during this time, the good news — the Message of the kingdom — will be preached all over the world, a witness staked out in every country. And then the end will come.  MSG

Romans 1:16 I have no shame about sharing the Good News of Christ with anyone; the powerful rescuing act of God persuades both Jew and Gentile alike.

17 Herein lies the secret of the power of the Gospel; there is no good news in it until the righteousness of God is revealed! The dynamic of the gospel is the revelation of 1God’s faith as the only valid basis for our belief. The Prophets wrote in advance about the fact that God believes that righteousness reveals the life of our design. “Righteousness by his (God’s) faith defines life.”  Mirror

Hebrews 9:27 So, every person’s once-off appointment with death is mirrored in the full consequence of this very judgment, which Jesus now disengaged!

28 Thus, in this context Jesus is the ultimate sacrifice. What the first, shadow-dispensation merely prophetically pointed to, he fulfilled once and for all, when he was presented as an offering, to take upon himself the sins of the entire human race! Now, with sin no longer on the agenda, he appears a second time, out of this death, to be clearly seen in everyone’s whole-hearted embrace of him as Savior!  Mirror

▼▼▼

Hebrews 9:27 Every human being is appointed to die once, and then to face God’s judgment.

²⁸ But when we die we will be face-to-face with Christ, the One who experienced death once for all to bear the sins of many! And now to those who eagerly await him, he will appear a second time; not to deal with sin, but to bring us the fullness of salvation. TPT

Rom 15:18 And I will not be presumptuous to speak of anything except what Christ has accomplished through me. For many non-Jewish people are coming into faith’s obedience by the power of the Spirit of God, which is displayed through mighty signs and amazing wonders, both in word and deed. Starting from Jerusalem I went from place to place as far as the distant Roman province of Illyricum, fully preaching the wonderful message of Christ.TPT

Rom 15:19 [Even as my preaching has been accompanied] with the power of signs and wonders, [and all of it] by the power of the Holy Spirit.

POWER OF AGREEMENT  1-7-22 VIDEO

Agreement is harmony of opinion or action. It acknowledges that there are different parts to be played but each party plays their part with regard to the whole.

Harmony is like in a choir or a band it is the blending together of different sounds to bring forth a beautiful song.

1 COR 12:15  The different members co-compliment each other. The hand is not a more valid member of the body than the foot. How silly it would be for the foot to feel inferior to the hand simply because it does not look the same! They fulfill completely different roles but are equally part of the same body.

16 Should the ear say, “Because I am not the eye I am not part of the same body;” does that mean that the ear is right?

17 If the body was just one huge eye, then everything would be silent; if it was all ears, then how could it smell the fragrance of the flowers!

18 God engineered every individual part of the body according to his deliberate design

19 Our individual significance only finds context in relationship to others! MIRROR

▼▼▼

1 COR 12:15 If the foot were to say, “Since I’m not a hand, I’m not a part of the body,” it’s forgetting that it is still a vital part of the body.

¹⁶ And if the ear were to say, “Since I’m not an eye, I’m not really a part of the body,” it’s forgetting that it is still an important part of the body.

¹⁷ Think of it this way. If the whole body were just an eyeball, how could it hear sounds? And if the whole body were just an ear, how could it smell different fragrances?

¹⁸ But God has carefully designed each member and placed it in the body to function as he desires.

¹⁹ A diversity is required, for if the body consisted of one single part, there wouldn’t be a body at all!  TPT

Amos 3:3 Do two people walk hand in hand if they aren’t going to the same place?MSG     

EPH 1:11 Through our union with Christ we too have been claimed by God as his own inheritance. Before we were even born, he gave us our destiny; that we would fulfill the plan of God who always accomplishes every purpose and plan in his heart.   TPT ▼▼▼

Eph 1:11 In Him we also were made [God’s] heritage (portion) and we obtained an inheritance; for we had been foreordained (chosen and appointed beforehand) in accordance with His purpose, Who works out everything in agreement with the counsel and design of His [own] will,   AMP

ROM 8:27 God, the searcher of the heart, knows fully our longings, yet he also understands the desires of the Spirit, because the Holy Spirit passionately pleads before God for us, his holy ones, in perfect harmony with God’s plan and our destiny. TPT

EPH 4:3 Be faithful to guard the sweet harmony of the Holy Spirit among you in the bonds of peace,

⁴ being one body and one spirit, as you were all called into the same glorious hope of divine destiny. TPT

▼▼▼

EPH 4:3 Being alert to treasure our oneness in spirit; encapsulated in peace.  

4 There is only one body and one Spirit. We are inseparably one, in the same hope; there is no plan B. We bear the same surname.  

5 There is only one legitimate Lordship; one faith and one baptism; we are all immersed in the same oneness! MIRROR

1 COR 1:10 I urge you, my brothers and sisters, for the sake of the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to agree to live in unity with one anotherand put to rest any division that attempts to tear you apart. Be restoredas one united body living in perfect harmony. Form a consistent choreography among yourselves, having a common perspective with shared values.

¹¹ My dear brothers and sisters, I have a serious concern I need to bring up with you, for I have been informed by those of Chloe’s house churchthat you have been destructively arguing among yourselves.

¹² And I need to bring this up because each of you is claiming loyalty to different preachers. Some are saying, “I am a disciple of Paul,” or, “I follow Apollos,” or, “I am a disciple of Peter the Rock,”^[ and some, “I belong only to Christ.”

¹³ But let me ask you, is Christ divided up into groups? Did I die on the cross for you? At your baptism did you pledge yourselves to follow Paul?  TPT

ROM 12:15-16 Celebrate with those who celebrate, and weep with those who grieve.

¹⁶ Live happily together in a spirit of harmony, and be as mindful of another’s worth as you are your own. Don’t live with a lofty mind-set, thinking you are too important to serve others, but be willing to do menial tasks and identify with those who are humble minded. Don’t be smug or even think for a moment that you know it all. TPT

ROM 12:15 Do not merely act the role in someone else’s gladness or grief; feel with them in genuine joy and compassion.

16 Esteem everyone with the same respect; no one is more important than the other. Associate yourself rather with the lowly than with the lofty. Do not distance yourself from others in your own mind.  MIRROR

1 COR 12:24 God so structured the body that every single part is equally valued; the less visible parts are often treated with even greater honor and more specific care.

25 Because of the delicate interdependence of the various parts of the body it is natural that no schism can be tolerated; instead every member considers the other with affectionate care.

26 It is impossible for one part of the body to suffer injury without the rest of the body being immediately alerted to it; the pain of the one is the pain of all. In the same way the complete person is honored, not just the fingers that skillfully play the harp. Everyone is equally included in the same joy.  MIRROR

Gal 3:28 In Christ’s family there can be no division into Jew and non-Jew, slave and free, male and female. Among us you are all equal. That is, we are all in a common relationship with Jesus Christ.  MSG

James 3:18 You can develop a healthy, robust community that lives right with God and enjoy its results only if you do the hard work of getting along with each other, treating each other with dignity and honor.  MSG

1 John 5:14 And this is the confidence (the assurance, the privilege of boldness) which we have in Him: [we are sure] that if we ask anything (make any request) according to His will (in agreement with His own plan), He listens to and hears us. AMP

Rom 15:5 May our dependably steady and warmly personal God develop maturity in you so that you get along with each other as well as Jesus gets along with us all.

6 Then we’ll be a choir — not our voices only, but our very lives singing in harmony in a stunning anthem to the God and Father of our Master Jesus!

7 So reach out and welcome one another to God’s glory. Jesus did it; now you do it!   MSG

Matt 18:19 Again I tell you, if two of you on earth agree (harmonize together, make a symphony together) about whatever [anything and everything] they may ask, it will come to pass and be done for them by My Father in heaven.

20 For wherever two or three are gathered (drawn together as My followers) in (into) My name, there I AM in the midst of them.  AMP

MATT 18:19 Again, I give you an eternal truth: If two of you agree to ask God for something in a symphony of prayer, my heavenly Father will do it for you.

²⁰ For wherever two or three come together in honor of my name, I am right there with them!”TPT

This kind of prayer can change the atmosphere of a nation. This is why intercessory prayer is so important. Prophetic words need to have agreement with the Gospel.

Acts 15:15 And with this the predictions of the prophets agree, as it is written,

16 After this I will come back, and will rebuild the house of David, which has fallen; I will rebuild its [very] ruins, and I will set it up again,  AMP

17 So that the rest of men may seek the Lord, and all the Gentiles upon whom My name has been invoked,

18 Says the Lord, Who has been making these things known from the beginning of the world. AMP

1 John 5:7 So there are three witnesses in heaven: the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit, and these three are One;

8 and there are three witnesses on the earth: the Spirit, the water, and the blood; and these three agree [are in unison; their testimony coincides].  AMP

▼▼▼

1 JN 5;6 Jesus Christ is the One who was revealed as God’s Son by his water baptism and by the blood of his cross—not by water only, but by water and blood. And the Spirit, who is truth, confirms this with his testimony.

⁷ So we have these three constant witnesses giving their evidence:

⁸ the Spirit, the water, and the blood. And these three are in agreement.

⁹ If we accept the testimony of men, how much more should we accept the more authoritative testimony of God that he has testified concerning his Son? TPT

John 17:11 For I’m no longer going to be visible in the world; They’ll continue in the world While I return to you. Holy Father, guard them as they pursue this life

That you conferred as a gift through me, So they can be one heart and mind

12 As we are one heart and mind. As long as I was with them, I guarded them

In the pursuit of the life you gave through me; I even posted a night watch.

And not one of them got away, Except for the rebel bent on destruction (the exception that proved the rule of Scripture). MSG

John 17:21 The goal is for all of them to become one heart and mind —  Just as you, Father, are in me and I in you, So they might be one heart and mind with us. Then the world might believe that you, in fact, sent me.

22 The same glory you gave me, I gave them, So they’ll be as unified and together as we are —  AMP

2 Cor 6:16  What agreement [can there be between] a temple of God and idols? For we are the temple of the living God; even as God said, I will dwell in and with and among them and will walk in and with and among them, and I will be their God, and they shall be My people.  AMP

PS 133:1 How truly wonderful and delightful it is to see brothers and sisters living together in sweet unity!
² It’s as precious as the sacred scented oil flowing from the head of the high priest Aaron, dripping down upon his beard and running all the way down to the hem of his priestly robes.
³ This harmony can be compared to the dewdripping from Mount Hermon,which flows down upon the hills of Zion.  Indeed, that is where Yahweh has decreed his blessingswill be found, the promise of life forevermore! TPT

GAL 6:15 Whether a man is circumcised or uncircumcised is meaningless to me. What really matters is the transforming power of this new creation life.
