John 17:24 Father, I desire that they also whom You have entrusted to Me [as Your gift to Me] may be with Me where I am, so that they may see My glory, which You have given Me [Your love gift to Me]; for You loved Me before the foundation of the world. AMP

2 Cor 1:21 But it is God Who confirms and makes us steadfast and establishes us [in joint fellowship] with you in Christ, and has consecrated and anointed us [enduing us with the gifts of the Holy Spirit];

Eph 4:10 And the One who climbed down is the One who climbed back up, up to highest heaven. He handed out gifts above and below, filled heaven with his gifts,

John 3:34 “The One that God sent speaks God’s words. And don’t think he rations out the Spirit in bits and pieces.

35 The Father loves the Son extravagantly. He turned everything over to him so he could give it away — a lavish distribution of gifts.

36 That is why whoever accepts and trusts the Son gets in on everything, life complete and forever! And that is also why the person who avoids and distrusts the Son is in the dark and doesn’t see life. All he experiences of God is darkness, and an angry darkness at that.”  MSG

JOHN 3:34 For the one sent from God communicates God’s gift language from the limitless resource of the Spirit.

36 To be persuaded about sonship as unveiled in the Son is to fully participate in the life of the ages!

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

WISDOM FROM ANOTHER WORLD

WISDOM FROM ANOTHER WORLD VIDEO BILL JOHNSON NATURAL VS SUPER

God has given us wisdom by possessing the mind of Christ. It is a wisdom that this world cannot understand. It is not logical. It is super natural. It is the way God created the world

Job 28:23 “God alone knows the way to Wisdom, he knows the exact place to find it.

24 He knows where everything is on earth, he sees everything under heaven. MSG

Prov 3:19 The Lord by skillful and godly Wisdom has founded the earth; by understanding He has established the heavens. 

20 By His knowledge the deeps were broken up, and the skies distill the dew.

21 My son, let them not escape from your sight, but keep sound and godly Wisdom and discretion,

22 And they will be life to your inner self, and a gracious ornament to your neck (your outer self).

23 Then you will walk in your way securely and in confident trust, and you shall not dash your foot or stumble. 

24 When you lie down, you shall not be afraid; yes, you shall lie down, and your sleep shall be sweet.  AMP

Proverbs 3:19The Lord laid the earth’s foundations with wisdom’s blueprints.

By his living-understanding all the universe came into being.

20By his divine revelation he broke open the hidden fountains of the deep,

bringing secret springs to the surface as the mist of the night dripped down from heaven.

21My child, never drift off course from these two goals for your life: to walk in wisdom and to discover your purpose. Don’t ever forget how they empower you.

22For they strengthen you inside and out and inspire you to do what’s right; you will be energized and refreshed by the healing they bring.

23They give you living hope to guide you, and not one of life’s tests will cause you to stumble.

24You will sleep like a baby, safe and sound—your rest will be sweet and secure. TPT

Proverbs 3:14 As wisdom increases, a great treasure is imparted, greater than many bars of refined gold.

15It is a more valuable commodity than gold and gemstones, for there is nothing you desire that could compare to her.

16Wisdom extends to you long life in one hand and wealth and promotion in the other. Out of her mouth flows righteousness, and her words release both law and mercy.  TPT

1 Corinthians 2:2 For while I was with you I was determined to be consumed with one topic—Jesus, the crucified Messiah.

3I stood before you feeling inadequate, filled with reverence for God, and trembling under the sense of the importance of my words.

4The message I preached and how I preached it was not an attempt to sway you with persuasive arguments but to prove to you the almighty power of God’s Holy Spirit.

5For God intended that your faith not be established on man’s wisdom but by trusting in his almighty power.

6However, there is a wisdom that we continually speak of when we are among the spiritually mature. It’s wisdom that didn’t originate in this present age, nor did it come from the rulers of this age who are in the process of being dethroned.

7Instead, we continually speak of this wonderful wisdom that comes from God, hidden before now in a mystery. It is his secret plan, destined before the ages, to bring us into glory.

8None of the rulers of this present world order understood it, for if they had, they never would have crucified the Lord of shining glory.

9This is why the Scriptures say: Things never discovered or heard of before, things beyond our ability to imagine—these are the many things God has in store

for all his lovers.

10But God now unveils these profound realities to us by the Spirit. Yes, he has revealed to us his inmost heart and deepest mysteries through the Holy Spirit, who constantly explores all things.

11After all, who can really see into a person’s heart and know his hidden impulses except for that person’s spirit? So it is with God. His thoughts and secrets are only fully understood by his Spirit, the Spirit of God.

12For we did not receive the spirit of this world system but the Spirit of God, so that we might come to understand and experience all that grace has lavished upon us.

13And we articulate these realities with the words imparted to us by the Spirit and not with the words taught by human wisdom. We join together Spirit-revealed truths with Spirit-revealed words.

14Someone living on an entirely human level rejects the revelations of God’s Spirit, for they make no sense to him. He can’t understand the revelations of the Spirit because they are only discovered by the illumination of the Spirit.

15Those who live in the Spirit are able to carefully evaluate all things, and they are subject to the scrutiny of no one but God.

16For Who has ever intimately known the mind of the Lord Yahweh well enough to become his counselor? Christ has, and we possess Christ’s perceptions.  TPT

1 Cor 1:21 Since the world in all its fancy wisdom never had a clue when it came to knowing God, God in his wisdom took delight in using what the world considered dumb — preaching, of all things! — to bring those who trust him into the way of salvation.

23 we go right on proclaiming Christ, the Crucified. Jews treat this like an anti-miracle — and Greeks pass it off as absurd. 24 But to us who are personally called by God himself — both Jews and Greeks — Christ is God’s ultimate miracle and wisdom all wrapped up in one.  MSG

Illusion (distorted vision) vs. Reality (Original Identity)

Sunday June 4, 2023 Illusion (distorted vision) vs. Reality (Original Identity)
Video- Man at the pool

Romans 7:21-25 (TPT)21Through my experience of this principle, I discover that even when I want to do good, evil is ready to sabotage me.22Truly, deep within my true identity, I love to do what pleases God 23But I discern another power operating in my humanity, waging a war against the moral principles of my conscience and bringing me into captivity as a prisoner to the “law” of sin—this unwelcome intruder in my humanity. 24What an agonizing situation I am in! So who has the power to rescue this miserable man from the unwelcome intruder of sin and death? 25 I give all my thanks to God, for his mighty power has finally provided a way out through our Lord Jesus, the Anointed One! So if left to myself,the flesh is aligned with the law of sin, but now my renewed mind is fixed on and submitted to God’s righteous principles.

2 Corinthians 11:3-4 (Mirror) 3I am concerned for you that you might pine away through the illusion of separation from Christ and that, just like Eve, you might become blurry-eyed and deceived into believing a lie about yourselves. 4The temptation was to exchange the truth about our completeness (I am) with the idea of incompleteness (I am not) and shame; thinking that perfection required your toil and all manner of wearisome labor

2 Corinthians 11:3-4 (AMP) 3But I am afraid that, even as the serpent beguiled Eve by his cunning, your minds may be corrupted and led away from the simplicity of [your sincere and] pure devotion to Christ. 4For [you seem willing to allow it]if one comes and preaches another Jesuswhom we have not preached, or if you receive a different spirit from the one you received, or a different gospel from the one you accepted. You tolerate all this beautifully [welcoming the deception]

Illusion-

Romans 1:23 (Mirror) 23Their losing sight of God, made them lose sight of who they really were. In their calculation the image and likeness of God became reduced to a corrupted and distorted pattern of themselves. Suddenly a person has more in common with “creepy crawlies” than with their original blueprint.

Romans 6:17-18 (TPT) 17And thanks be to God, for in the past you were servants of sin, but now your obedience is heart deep, and your life is being molded by truth through the teaching you are devoted to 18And now you celebrate your freedom from your former master—sin. You’ve left its bondage, and now God’s perfect righteousness holds power over you as his loving servants.

Romans 6:21-23 (TPT) 21So tell me, what benefit ensued from doing those things that you’re now ashamed of? It left you with nothing but a legacy of shame and death. 22But now, as God’s loving servants, you live in joyous freedom from the power of sin. So consider the benefits you now enjoy—you are brought deeper into the experience of true holiness that ends with eternal life! 23For sin’s meager wages is death, but God’s lavish gift is life eternal, found in your union with our Lord Jesus, the Anointed One.

Romans 8:1-2 (AMP) 1Therefore there is now no condemnation [no guilty verdict, no punishment] for those who are in Christ Jesus [who believe in Him as personal Lord and Savior]. 2For the law of the Spirit of life [which is] in Christ Jesus [the law of our new being] has set you free from the law of sin and of death.

Romans 8:1-2 (TPT) 1So now the case is closed. There remains no accusing voice of condemnation against those who are joined in life-union with Jesus, the Anointed One. 2For the “law” of the Spirit of life flowing through the anointing of Jesus has liberated us from the “law” of sin and death.

Romans 8:9 (Mirror) 9But you are not ruled by a flesh-consciousness, (law of works), but by a spirit-consciousness [faith], God’s Spirit is at home in you. Anyone who does not see themselves fully 1clothed and identified in the Spirit of Christ, cannot be themselves.

Romans 8:12 (Mirror) 12 We owe the flesh nothing

Romans 8:12 (TPT) 12 So then, beloved ones, the flesh has no claims on us at all, and we have no further obligation to live in obedience to it.

Romans 8:14-15 (TPT) 14 The mature children of God are those who are moved by the impulses of the Holy Spirit. 15 And you did not receive the “spirit of religious duty,” leading you back into the fear of never being good enough. But you have received the “Spirit of full acceptance,” enfolding you into the family of God. And you will never feel orphaned, for as he rises up within us, our spirits join him in saying the words of tender affection, “Beloved Father!”.

Romans 6:6 (AMP) We know that our old self [our human nature without the Holy Spirit] was nailed to the cross with Him, in order that our body of sin might be done away with, so that we would no longer be slaves to sin.

Romans 6:6 (TPT) 6Could it be any clearer that our former identity is 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.

John 10:9-10 (AMP) I am the Door; anyone who enters through Me will be saved [and will live forever], and will go in and out [freely], and find pasture (spiritual security).10 The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance [to the full, till it overflows].
John 10:9-10 (TPT) 9 I am the Gateway. To enter through me is to experience life, freedom, and satisfaction. 10 A thief has only one thing in mind—he wants to steal, slaughter, and destroy. But I have come to give you everything in abundance, more than you expect- life in its fullness until you overflow.

Romans 8:28 (Mirror) 28 Meanwhile we know that the love of God causes everything to mutually contribute to our advantage. His Master Plan is announced in our original identity.

Romans 8:28 (Living Bible) 28 And we know that all that happens to us is working for our good if we love God and are fitting into his plans.

Psalm 139:5 (TPT) 5You’ve gone into my future to prepare the way, and in kindness you follow behind me to spare me from the harm of my past.

Romans 8:31 (Mirror) 31All these things point to one conclusion, God is for us! Who can prevail against us?

Romans 8:33 (Mirror) 33God has 1identified us, who can disqualify us? His 2word is our origin. No-one can point a finger; he declared us innocent. (He has placed us beyond the reach of blame and shame, guilt and gossip!)

Psalm 119:133 (AMP) 133Establish my footsteps in [the way of] Your word;
Do not let any human weakness have power over me [causing me to be separated from You].

Psalm 119:133 (NKJV) 133 Direct my steps by Your word, And let no iniquity have dominion over me.

Romans 8:38-39 (TPT) 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. 39There 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!

Corinthians 11:6 (Mirror) 6 I am not here to entertain you with my public speaking skills, or to impress you with me, but to impress you with you! It is not in the plausible sounding words of my conversation; it is in what I know to be true about you. This is clearly evident in all of our dealings with you.

Philippians 3:12-16 (TPT) 12I 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. 13 I don’t depend on my own strength to accomplish this; however, I do have one compelling focus: I forget all of the past as I fasten my heart to the future instead. 14I run straight for the divine invitation of reaching the heavenly goal and gaining the victory-prize through the anointing of Jesus. 15So let all who are fully mature have this same passion, and if anyone is not yet gripped by these desires, God will reveal it to them. 16And let us all advance together to reach this victory-prize, following one path with one passion.

The gift of faith is a special gift, whereby the believer is given extraordinary confidence in God’s promises, power, and presence so much so they can take heroic stands and believe God with heroic actions. If we are born again, then for sure, we have experience saving faith.  All believers have faith but there is the gift of faith comes upon believers to trust God beyond what they thought possible. To believe in some thing they have never seen before. The woman with the issue of blood she had this gift. We see that virtue comes out of Jesus to heal her. it is best described as mountain, living faith. It’s a living faith. 

Eph 2:8 For it is by free grace (God’s unmerited favor) that you are saved (delivered from judgment and made partakers of Christ’s salvation) through [your] faith. And this [salvation] is not of yourselves [of your own doing, it came not through your own striving], but it is the gift of God;

9 Not because of works [not the fulfillment of the Law’s demands], lest any man should boast. [It is not the result of what anyone can possibly do, so no one can pride himself in it or take glory to himself.]  AMP

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.

Matt 17:20 “Because you’re not yet taking God seriously,” said Jesus. “The simple truth is that if you had a mere kernel of faith, a poppy seed, say, you would tell this mountain, ‘Move!’ and it would move. There is nothing you wouldn’t be able to tackle.”  MSG

Matt 21:21 But Jesus was matter-of-fact: “Yes — and if you embrace this kingdom life and don’t doubt God, you’ll not only do minor feats like I did to the fig tree, but also triumph over huge obstacles. This mountain, for instance, you’ll tell, ‘Go jump in the lake,’ and it will jump.

22 Absolutely everything, ranging from small to large, as you make it a part of your believing prayer, gets included as you lay hold of God.”  MSG

7 And will not [our just] God defend and protect and avenge His elect (His chosen ones), who cry to Him day and night? Will He defer them and delay help on their behalf?

Mark 5:35 While He was still speaking, there came some from the ruler’s house, who said [to Jairus], Your daughter has died. Why bother and distress the Teacher any further?

36 Overhearing but ignoring what they said, Jesus said to the ruler of the synagogue, Do not be seized with alarm and struck with fear; only keep on believing.

37 And He permitted no one to accompany Him except Peter and James and John the brother of James.

38 When they arrived at the house of the ruler of the synagogue, He looked [carefully and with understanding] at [the] tumult and the people weeping and wailing loudly.

39 And when He had gone in, He said to them, Why do you make an uproar and weep? The little girl is not dead but is sleeping.

40 And they laughed and jeered at Him. But He put them all out, and, taking the child’s father and mother and those who were with Him, He went in where the little girl was lying.

41 Gripping her [firmly] by the hand, He said to her, Talitha cumi — which translated is, Little girl, I say to you, arise [from the sleep of death]!

42 And instantly the girl got up and started walking around — for she was twelve years old. And they were utterly astonished and overcome with amazement.  AMP

Rom 5:1 By entering through faith into what God has always wanted to do for us — set us right with him, make us fit for him — we have it all together with God because of our Master Jesus.

2 And that’s not all: We throw open our doors to God and discover at the same moment that he has already thrown open his door to us. We find ourselves standing where we always hoped we might stand — out in the wide open spaces of God’s grace and glory, standing tall and shouting our praise.  MSG
