WHY ARE WE HERE 5-29-22  VIDEO PURPOSE IN LIFE 2

So much is going on in the world, and in these days. On the Internet, we hear and see what is going on. It leaves us with the question why are we here? What should we do with our lives? Will the days that are filled with evil shape us or will we become Christ to this world?

Times and seasons. God the Father knows all things he knows the appointed time and Seasons for everything. Purpose is the reason for which some thing is created for or  which some thing exist to become. The Father has a purpose for us to become just like His Son. Our purpose is to become Christ in this world so we reach the whole world.

Acts 1:7 He said to them, It is not for you to become acquainted with and know what time brings [the things and events of time and their definite periods] or fixed years and seasons (their critical niche in time), which the Father has appointed (fixed and reserved) by His own choice and authority and personal power.

8 But you shall receive power (ability, efficiency, and might) when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you shall be My witnesses in Jerusalem and all Judea and Samaria and to the ends (the very bounds) of the earth.  AMP

Est 4:14  For if you keep silent at this time, relief and deliverance shall arise for the Jews from elsewhere, but you and your father’s house will perish. And who knows but that you have come to the kingdom for such a time as this and for this very occasion?  AMP

Romans 8:28So we are convinced that every detail of our lives is continually woven together for good, for we are his lovers who have been called to fulfill his designed purpose.

29For he knew all about us before we were born and he destined us from the beginning to share the likeness of his Son. This means the Son is the oldest among a vast family of brothers and sisters who will become just like him.

30Having determined our destiny ahead of time, he called us to himself and transferred his perfect righteousness to everyone he called. And those who possess his perfect righteousness he co-glorified with his Son!  TPT

40 And this is the desire of my Father, that everyone who sees the Son, through his eyes, and finds the conclusion of their persuasion in him, will resonate (echo) the life of the ages! And I will raise him up in the final day!   MIRROR

John 6:38 I came down from heaven not to follow my own whim but to accomplish the will of the One who sent me.

39 “This, in a nutshell, is that will: that everything handed over to me by the Father be completed — not a single detail missed — and at the wrap-up of time I have everything and everyone put together, upright and whole.

40 This is what my Father wants: that anyone who sees the Son and trusts who he is and what he does and then aligns with him will enter real life, eternal life. My part is to put them on their feet alive and whole at the completion of time.”  MSG

Rom 14:8 If we live, we live to the Lord, and if we die, we die to the Lord. So then, whether we live or we die, we belong to the Lord.

Romans 9:11-12And before her twin sons were born, God spoke to Rebekah and said:

Galatians 2:20 My old identity has been co-crucified with Christ and no longer lives. And now the essence of this new life is no longer mine, for the Anointed One lives his life through me— we live in union as one!

GAL 2:20 So here I am dead and alive at the same time! I’m dead to the old me I was trying to be and alive to the real me which is Christ in me! Co-crucified, now co-alive! What a glorious entanglement! I was in him in his death; now I discover that he is infused in me, in my life! For the first time, I’m free to be me in my skin, immersed in his faith in our joint-sonship! He loves me and believes in me! He is God’s gift to me! MIRROR

Eph 1:5  For He foreordained us (destined us, planned in love for us) to be adopted (revealed) as His own children through Jesus Christ, in accordance with the purpose of His will [because it pleased Him and was His kind intent] —  AMP

Eph 1:9 Making known to us the mystery (secret) of His will (of His plan, of His purpose). [And it is this:] In accordance with His good pleasure (His merciful intention) which He had previously purposed and set forth in Him,

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,

12 So that we who first hoped in Christ [who first put our confidence in Him have been destined and appointed to] live for the praise of His glory!  AMP

Ephesians 1:9 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.

10And 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 new in all of heaven and earth through Jesus Christ.

11Through 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.

12God’s purpose was that we Jews, who were the first to long for the messianic hope, would be the first to believe in the Anointed One and bring great praise and glory to God!  TPT

1 COR 1:2 I address this writing to the Ekklesia of God in Corinth. You have been restored to the harmony of your original design, made holy in Christ Jesus; no wonder then that you are surnamed saints.

Eph 3:10  [The purpose is] that through the church the complicated, many-sided wisdom of God in all its infinite variety and innumerable aspects might now be made known to the angelic rulers and authorities (principalities and powers) in the heavenly sphere.

Ephesians 3:10 The purpose of this was to unveil before every throne and rank of angelic orders in the heavenly realm God’s full and diverse wisdom revealed through the church.

GAL 3:26   What Jesus Christ believes to be true about you is the final confirmation of mankind’s redeemed sonship. His faith is the only valid reference to your belief!

27 To be immersed in Christ is to be fully clothed with him! He is your brand new wardrobe confirming your sonship!

WHAT IS DIVINE GRACE REALLY 5-27022

WHAT IS DIVINE GRACE REALLY 5-28-22 VIDEO BEAUTY OF GRACE 2 #2

Grace has been imparted to us by the Holy Spirit. Grace is given to show us how to endure trials, stress, how to resist temptation and be strengthened in hard times. The grace of God remains constant in us no matter what we feel.

1 COR 1:7 In receiving the revelation of Jesus Christ as the principal influence in your life (his Lordship), you prove that you lack nothing and that his grace gifts fully compliment you.

8 He establishes you from start to finish; to stand vindicated in your identity in the light of day as evidenced in the Lord Jesus Christ.   MIRROR

2 COR 6:4 In every circumstance we commend ourselves to be jointly positioned as deacons of God; we co-exhibit incarnate grace, regardless of the degree of the contradictions that we might be facing. We remain constant in a fortress of patience, in situations of extreme pressure; even at times where it seems like we have our arms locked behind our backs and we feel squeezed into claustrophobic spaces. MIRROR

Zech 4:7 For who are you, O great mountain [of human obstacles]? Before Zerubbabel [who with Joshua had led the return of the exiles from Babylon and was undertaking the rebuilding of the temple, before him] you shall become a plain [a mere molehill]! And he shall bring forth the finishing gable stone [of the new temple] with loud shoutings of the people, crying, Grace, grace to it!  AMP

Ps 84:11 For the Lord God is a Sun and Shield; the Lord bestows [present] grace and favor and [future] glory (honor, splendor, and heavenly bliss)! No good thing will He withhold from those who walk uprightly. AMP

▼▼▼

Psalms 84:11 For the Lord God is brighter than the brilliance of a sunrise! Wrapping himself around me like a shield, he is so generous with his gifts of grace and glory. Those who walk along his paths with integrity will never lack one thing they need, for he provides it all! TPT

Ps 92:14 [Growing in grace] they shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be full of sap [of spiritual vitality] and [rich in the] verdure [of trust, love, and contentment].  AMP

John 1:14 And so the Living Expression became a man and lived among us!

We gazed upon his glory, the glory of the One and Only who came from the Father overflowing with tender mercy and truth!

15John announced the truth about him when he taught the people, “He’s the One! He’s the One I’ve been telling you would come after me, even though he ranks far above me, because he existed before I was even born.”

16And from the overflow of his fullness we received grace heaped upon more grace!

17Moses gave us the Law, but Jesus, the Anointed One, unveils truth wrapped in tender mercy. TPT

▼▼▼

JOHN 1:14 Suddenly the invisible, eternal Word takes on visible form – the Incarnation, on display in a flesh and blood Person, as in a mirror! In him, and now confirmed in us! The most accurate tangible exhibit of God’s eternal thought finds expression in human life! The Word became a human being; we are his address; he resides in us! He captivates our gaze! The glory we see there is not a religious replica; he is the authentic begotten Son. The glory (that we lost in Adam) returns in fullness!

15 John the Baptist raised his voice to announce emphatically that Jesus was what his ministry and prophetic message were all about. He declared that Jesus, though younger than him, since he witnessed his birth, ranks above him in prominence and in his Messianic mission – because in his I-am-ness, he always was pre-eminent.  

16 He is the source of our completeness. Everyone may now realize their own completeness as evidenced in him. This is grace mirrored in grace!

17 The law was given through Moses; grace and truth have their genesis in Jesus Christ. Against the stark backdrop of the law, with Moses representing the condemned state of mankind, Jesus Christ unveils grace and truth!  MIRROR

Acts 20:24 “But whether I live or die is not important, for I don’t esteem my life as indispensable. It’s more important for me to fulfill my destiny and to finish the ministry my Lord Jesus has assigned to me, which is to faithfully preach the wonderful news of God’s grace.  TPT

Acts 20:32 “And so now, I entrust you into God’s hands and the message of his grace, which is all that you need to become strong. All of God’s blessings are imparted through the message of his grace, which he provides as the spiritual inheritance given to all of his holy ones.

ROM 5: 15 The only similarity in the comparison between the crash-landing and the gift, is that both Adam and Christ represent the masses. However, the grace gift lavished upon mankind in the one man Jesus Christ supersedes the effect of Adam’s failure by far and is beyond comparison in significance to the idea of death and separation.

16 The principle of the gift speaks a different language and brings a radically different equation to the table. Whereas a single sin resulted in a judgment that concluded in condemnation; grace translates countless deviations into acquittal and innocence.

17 Death no longer has the final say. Life rules! If the effect of one man’s crash-landing engaged mankind in a death-dominated lifestyle how much more advantaged is the very same mankind now that they are the recipients of the boundless reservoirs of grace, empowering them to enjoy the dominion of life through the gift of righteousness because of that one man, Jesus Christ. Grace is out of all proportion in superiority to the transgression.  MIRROR

ROM 5:20 The presence of the law made no difference, instead it merely highlighted the offence; but where sin increased, grace superseded it.

21 Death provided sin its platform and power to reign from; now grace has taken over sovereignty through righteousness to introduce unthreatened life under the Lordship of Jesus Christ over us.  MIRROR

ROM 6:1 It is not possible to interpret grace as a cheap excuse to continue in sin. It sounds to some that we are saying, “Let’s carry on sinning then so that grace may abound.”  

2 How ridiculous is that! How can we be dead and alive to sin at the same time?  MIRROR

RO 6:14 Sin was your master while the law was your measure; now grace rules.  

15 Being under grace and not under the law most certainly does not mean that you now have a license to sin.

16 As much as you once gave permission to sin to trap you in its spiral of spiritual death and enslave you to its dictates, the obedience that faith ignites now, introduces a new rule, rightness with God; to this we willingly yield ourselves.  

17 The content of teaching that your heart embraced has set a new standard to become the pattern of your life; the grace of God ended sin’s dominance.   MIRROR

ROM 11:6 Grace cannot suggest debt or obligation at the same time. The word grace can only mean what it says. The same argument goes for mankind’s good works; if salvation or any advantage for that matter is to be obtained according to prescribed regulations of conduct, then that’s it. No amount of grace can change the rules! Grace means grace and work means work.

7 The very thing Israel sought to obtain through their diligent labor they failed to get; yet those who embraced grace as God’s original intent hit the bull’s eye every time, leaving the rest groping around in the dark like blindfolded archers.  MIRROR

2 COR 8:9  You are acquainted with what the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ communicates: He exchanged his riches for our poverty; the extremities of his identifying with our poverty became the reference to our wealth. Everything he has is ours.  MIRROR

▼▼▼

2 COR 9:8 It is impossible to exaggerate the dimensions and detail of the grace of God! Plunge into the extravagance of grace where he exhibits the extreme dynamics of his bountiful dealing with us! We are already advantaged far beyond any calculation of personal merit to be completely self sufficient at all times in every possible situation that we might face! The overflow thereof amply supplies the needs of others in many creative ways to do good! MIRROR

1 Corinthians 15:10 But God’s amazing grace has made me who I am! And his grace to me was not fruitless. In fact, I worked harder than all the rest, yet not in my own strength but God’s, for his empowering grace is poured out upon me.

11So this is what we all have taught you, and whether it was through me or someone else, you have now believed the gospel.  TPT

1 COR 15:10 While my own doing completely disqualified me; his doing now defines me. I am what I am by the grace of God. I am because he is! His grace was not wasted on me; instead I am inspired to labor beyond the point of exhaustion, more than anything I ever did under the law of performance; whatever it is that I accomplish now has grace written all over it. I take no credit for it.

11 Whether you came to faith through my preaching or someone else’s is not important. MIRROR

2 COR 8:1 Allow me to encourage you with the striking testimony of the grace of God evidenced in the churches of Macedonia!  

2 Their mental mettle was tested to the extreme; they found themselves squeezed into a very narrow space. Yet, in the depth of their poverty, their ecstatic joy led them into extravagant generosity! They had discovered the conclusion of grace: no degree of poverty can separate us from our seamless oneness with one another. Grace translates within us a wealth of liberality.MIRROR

EPH 2:5 This is how grace rescued us: while we were yet in that state of deadness and indifference in our deviations, we were co-quickened together with Christ! We had nothing to do with it. Grace freed us, once and for all from the lies that we believed about ourselves under the performance-driven system, and now defines our authentic identity! MIRROR

Ephesians 2:5 Even when we were dead and doomed in our many sins, he united us into the very life of Christ and saved us by his wonderful grace! TPT

2 TIM 1:9 He rescued the integrity of our original design and revealed that we have always been his own from the beginning, even before time was. This has nothing to do with anything we did to qualify or disqualify ourselves. We are not talking religious good works or karma here. Jesus unveils grace to be the eternal intent of God! Grace celebrates our pre-creation innocence and now declares our redeemed union with God in Christ Jesus.  MIRROR

James 4:6 But He gives us more and more grace (power of the Holy Spirit, to meet this evil tendency and all others fully). That is why He says, God sets Himself against the proud and haughty, but gives grace [continually] to the lowly (those who are humble enough to receive it).  AMP

JAME 3 6 A tongue can strike like lightning and turn the harmony of your world into chaos; one little member can stain the whole body. It can disrupt the pattern of your design, taking its spark from the smoldering garbage heaps of Gehenna.

7 From tigers to eagles, cobras to dolphins, humans have succeeded to curb the wild nature of beasts and birds, reptiles and sea creatures.

8 Yet no-one can tame a tongue; no-one can restrain the evil in its fatal venom.

9 We can say beautiful things about God the Father but with the same mouth curse a fellow human made in his mirror likeness.

10 My friends, a blessing and a curse cannot originate from the same source. MIRROR

SOUL 5-20-22 VIDEO YOUR LIFE IS NOT TUFF FOR GOD GRAHAM COOKE

Our soul sometimes needs help. It effects our thinking how we feel emotionally and in our body. Our soul is the principle of life, feelings, emotions, thinking and actions. These are all soul related. Soul encompasses our heart, our  thoughts and our conscience. In the soul realm we cast down imaginations. Jesus bore in his body the pain in our soul.

JOHN   Matt 3:1 While Jesus was living in the Galilean hills, John, called “the Baptizer,” was preaching in the desert country of Judea.

Jesus answered them, “Give John this report:

The blind see again, the crippled walk, lepers are cured, the deaf hear, the dead are raised back to life, and the poor and broken now hear of the hope of salvation!’

And tell John that the blessing of heaven comes to those who are not offended over me.” TPT

WE ARE MADE ALIVE

WE ARE MADE ALIVE  5-1-2022  VIDEO TIM TEBOW LIFE #5

We are made alive. There is a big difference in living life day-to-day, just trying to move past hardship and trials then to being fully alive. Our salvation takes us from just living to being alive. Salvation is more than going to heaven when you die but it makes us truly alive. Safe and free from the curse of the law.

2 Corinthians 3:6 He alone makes us adequate ministers who are focused on an entirely new covenant. Our ministry is not based on the letter of the law but through the power of the Spirit. The letter of the law kills, but the Spirit pours out life.  TPT

2 Corinthians 3:10 What once was glorious no longer holds any glory because of the increasingly greater glory that has replaced it.

2 Corinthians 13:4For although he was crucified as a “weakling,” now he lives robed with God’s power. And we also are “weak ones” in our co-crucifixion with him, but now we live in God’s triumphant power together with him, which is demonstrated on your behalf.  TPT

2 COR 13:4 It seems such a paradox when one considers the frailty of Christ’s frame, how he suffered such a dreadful death on the cross, compared to the power of God so evident in him as his source of life. Our own lives often mirror the same contrasting paradox that we have witnessed in Christ, where our times of weakness become a platform for the power of God to be displayed as the secret source of the life we participate in together with Christ, to encourage you!  MIRROR

Ephesians 2:1And his fullness fills you, even though you were once like corpses, dead in your sins and offenses.

2It wasn’t that long ago that you lived in the religion, customs, and values of this world, obeying the dark ruler of the earthly realm who fills the atmosphere with his authority, and works diligently in the hearts of those who are disobedient to the truth of God.

3The corruption that was in us from birth was expressed through the deeds and desires of our self-life. We lived by whatever natural cravings and thoughts our minds dictated, living as rebellious children subject to God’s wrath like everyone else.

4But God still loved us with such great love. He is so rich in compassion and mercy.

5Even when we were dead and doomed in our many sins, he united us into the very life of Christ and saved us by his wonderful grace!

6He raised us up with Christ the exalted One, and we ascended with him into the glorious perfection and authority of the heavenly realm, for we are now co-seated as one with Christ!  TPT

Eph 2:1 It wasn’t so long ago that you were mired in that old stagnant life of sin.

3 We all did it, all of us doing what we felt like doing, when we felt like doing it, all of us in the same boat. It’s a wonder God didn’t lose his temper and do away with the whole lot of us.

4 Instead, immense in mercy and with an incredible love,

5 he embraced us. He took our sin-dead lives and made us alive in Christ. He did all this on his own, with no help from us!

Eph 2:12  had no idea of any of this, didn’t know the first thing about the way God works, hadn’t the faintest idea of Christ. You knew nothing of that rich history of God’s covenants and promises in Israel, hadn’t a clue about what God was doing in the world at large.

Romans 8:9But when the Spirit of Christ empowers your life, you are not dominated by the flesh but by the Spirit. And if you are not joined to the Spirit of the Anointed One, you are not of him.

11Yes, God raised Jesus to life! And since God’s Spirit of Resurrection lives in you, he will also raise your dying body to life by the same Spirit that breathes life into you!

12So then, beloved ones, the flesh has no claims on us at all, and we have no further obligation to live in obedience to it.
