WHO ARE YOU REALLY!!!? 11-12-23   VIDEO WHO ARE

You are not limited by what you have done, nor the mistakes or the sins you once committed. You are not defined by what you do for a living, teacher, doctor, lawyer, whatever. You are defined by who you are living for. Christ has given us his identity.

Deut 7:6 Do this because you are a people set apart as holy to God, your God. God, your God, chose you out of all the people on Earth for himself as a cherished, personal treasure. MSG

Psalms 8:4 Why would you bother with puny, mortal man or care about human beings?

⁵Yet what honor you have given to men, created only a little lower than Elohim, crowned with glory and magnificence.

⁶You have delegated to them rulership over all you have made, with everything under their authority, placing earth itself under the feet of your image-bearers.

7-8 All the created order and every living thing of the earth, sky, and sea—

the wildest beasts and all that move in the paths of the sea— everything is in submission to Adam’s sons.  TPT

Psalms 139:13 You formed my innermost being, shaping my delicate inside

and my intricate outside, and wove them all together in my mother’s womb.

¹⁴I thank you, God, for making me so mysteriously complex! Everything you do is marvelously breathtaking. It simply amazes me to think about it! How thoroughly you know me, Lord!

¹⁵You even formed every bone in my body when you created me in the secret place;

carefully, skillfully you shaped me from nothing to something.

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

17-18 Every single moment you are thinking of me! How precious and wonderful to consider that you cherish me constantly in your every thought! O God, your desires toward me are more than the grains of sand on every shore! When I awake each morning, you’re still with me.  TPT

Isa 43:1 I’ve called your name. You’re mine.

2 When you’re in over your head, I’ll be there with you. When you’re in rough waters, you will not go down. When you’re between a rock and a hard place, it won’t be a dead end — 

3 Because I am God, your personal God, The Holy of Israel, your Savior. I paid a huge price for you: all of Egypt, with rich Cush and Seba thrown in!

4 That’s how much you mean to me! That’s how much I love you! I’d sell off the whole world to get you back, trade the creation just for you.  MSG

2 Beloved, we are [even here and] now God’s children; it is not yet disclosed (made clear) what we shall be [hereafter], but we know that when He comes and is manifested, we shall [as God’s children] resemble and be like Him, for we shall see Him just as He [really] is.  AMP

1 JOHN 3:1 Consider the amazing love the Father lavished upon us; this is our defining moment: we began in the agape of God – the engineer of the universe is our Father!

2 Beloved, we know that we are children of God to begin with, which means that there can be no future surprises; his manifest likeness is already mirrored in us! Our sameness cannot be compromised or contradicted; our gaze will confirm exactly who he is – and who we are. MIRROR

3 Your union with his death broke the association with that world; see yourselves located in a fortress where your life is hidden with Christ in God!

4  The unveiling of Christ, as defining our lives, immediately implies that, what is evident in him, is equally mirrored in you! The exact life on exhibit in Christ is now repeated in us. We are included in the same bliss and joined-oneness with him; just as his life reveals you, your life reveals him.   MIRROR

14 “Here’s another way to put it: You’re here to be light, bringing out the God-colors in the world. God is not a secret to be kept. We’re going public with this, as public as a city on a hill.

15 If I make you light-bearers, you don’t think I’m going to hide you under a bucket, do you? I’m putting you on a light stand.

16 Now that I’ve put you there on a hilltop, on a light stand — shine! Keep open house; be generous with your lives. By opening up to others, you’ll prompt people to open up with God, this generous Father in heaven.  MSG

1 JN 5:18 What was made absolutely clear [in the incarnate Christ] is that whoever is begotten of God cannot be a distorted image of God! Likeness begets likeness. Jesus did not come to reveal the “otherness” of God, but his likeness in human form. There is nothing wrong with mankind’s design, neither with their salvation! To see one’s true revealed and now redeemed genesis in God, is to treasure the person you really are by his divine engineering and to remain unstained in your thoughts by the “I am not-Tree system.” The idea that I am not the expression of his image and likeness can no longer attach itself to my thoughts, neither do I allow it to ignite its destructive cycle of self-righteousness or depression! The system of this world is based on a mentality of separation, which is marked by hardships annoyances and labors! It becomes an all consuming and most exhausting lifestyle of having to prove oneself in every relationship and a futile striving for recognition; with its inevitable results of disappointment, condemnation, rejection and pretense. 

19 We know that we have our origin in God; yet the whole world lies trapped in the blindfold-mode of a lost identity; intoxicated by the poneros system of a futile mentality of hardships labors and annoyances! MIRROR

We are new creations, children of God, friends of Jesus, justified, redeemed, an heir, ambassador, righteous, chosen, adopted, forgiven, the light in Christ, sanctified, the temple of the Holy Spirit, redeemed, forgiven, we live in Christ, raised and  seated in heavenly places, Gods workmanship, Citizens of Heaven, no longer a slave but free.

DO NOT COMPLAIN 11-10-23  VIDEO PEOPLE THANKING AT THE CROSS 3

Complain means to expressed dissatisfaction in someone or something using the words of your mouth. A complainer means one who is discontented with his lot in life. Complaining will make ineffectual the word of God for you that you were standing on. Moses complain to God not to man.  God heard his complaint.

 When Jesus shares about His blood and communion many left and complained about His teachings. David starts off with complains but find something better and that’s praising God.

Ex 16:2 The whole company of Israel complained against Moses and Aaron there in the wilderness.

3 The Israelites said, “Why didn’t God let us die in comfort in Egypt where we had lamb stew and all the bread we could eat? You’ve brought us out into this wilderness to starve us to death, the whole company of Israel!”   MSG

Num 11:12 Why tell me to carry them around like a nursing mother, carry them all the way to the land you promised to their ancestors?

14 I can’t do this by myself — it’s too much, all these people.

15 If this is how you intend to treat me, do me a favor and kill me. I’ve seen enough; I’ve had enough. Let me out of here.”  MSG

THE POWER OF BAPTISM 11-3-23  VIDEO BAPTISM IN US HISTORY 2

Baptism is Gods gift to us. It allows us the way to walk in newness of life. We also receive power from on high to move on in our destiny.

1 Cor 12:13  By means of his one Spirit, we all said good-bye to our partial and piecemeal lives. We each used to independently call our own shots, but then we entered into a large and integrated life in which he has the final say in everything. (This is what we proclaimed in word and action when we were baptized.) Each of us is now a part of his resurrection body, refreshed and sustained at one fountain — his Spirit — where we all come to drink. The old labels we once used to identify ourselves — labels like Jew or Greek, slave or free — are no longer useful. We need something larger, more comprehensive. MSG

EPH 4:5 There is only one legitimate Lordship; one faith and one baptism; we are all immersed in the same oneness!  MIRROR

Mark 1:4 John the Baptizer appeared in the wild, preaching a baptism of life-change that leads to forgiveness of sins.

5 People thronged to him from Judea and Jerusalem and, as they confessed their sins, were baptized by him in the Jordan River into a changed life.

6 John wore a camel-hair habit, tied at the waist with a leather belt. He ate locusts and wild field honey.

7 As he preached he said, “The real action comes next: The star in this drama, to whom I’m a mere stagehand, will change your life.

8 I’m baptizing you here in the river, turning your old life in for a kingdom life. His baptism — a holy baptism by the Holy Spirit — will change you from the inside out.”

9 At this time, Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan.

10 The moment he came out of the water, he saw the sky split open and God’s Spirit, looking like a dove, come down on him.

11 Along with the Spirit, a voice: “You are my Son, chosen and marked by my love, pride of my life.”  MSG

Matt 3:11  “I’m baptizing you here in the river, turning your old life in for a kingdom life. The real action comes next: The main character in this drama — compared to him I’m a mere stagehand — will ignite the kingdom life within you, a fire within you, the Holy Spirit within you, changing you from the inside out.   MSG

Acts 19:3 And he asked, Into what [baptism] then were you baptized? They said, Into John’s baptism.

4 And Paul said, John baptized with the baptism of repentance, continually telling the people that they should believe in the One Who was to come after him, that is, in Jesus [having a conviction full of joyful trust that He is Christ, the Messiah, and being obedient to Him].  AMP

▼▼▼

Acts 19:3 “How were you baptized, then?” asked Paul. “In John’s baptism.”

4 “That explains it,” said Paul. “John preached a baptism of radical life-change so that people would be ready to receive the One coming after him, who turned out to be Jesus. If you’ve been baptized in John’s baptism, you’re ready now for the real thing, for Jesus.”   MSG

Romans 6:3 Or have you forgotten that all of us who were immersed into union with Jesus, the Anointed One, were immersed into union with his death?

⁴Sharing in his death by our baptism means that we were co-buried with him, so that when the Father’s glory raised Christ from the dead, we were also raised with him. We have been co-resurrected with him so that we could be empowered to walk in the freshness of new life. TPT

▼▼▼

ROM 6:3 What are we saying then in baptism, if we are not declaring that we understand our union with Christ in his death?

4 Baptism pictures how we were co-buried together with Christ in his death; then it powerfully illustrates how in God’s mind we were co-raised with Christ into a new lifestyle.  MIRROR

COL 2:11 You were in Christ when he died; which means that his death is your true circumcision. This is not hypothetical; this is the real deal. Thus, sin’s authority in the human body was stripped of its control over you.  

12 In the same parallel [your co-circumcision in his death], your co-burial and joint-resurrection is now demonstrated in baptism; your co-inclusion in Christ is what God’s faith knew when he powerfully raised him from the dead.  MIRROR

▼▼▼

Col 2:11 Entering into this fullness is not something you figure out or achieve. It’s not a matter of being circumcised or keeping a long list of laws. No, you’re already in — insiders — not through some secretive initiation rite but rather through what Christ has already gone through for you, destroying the power of sin.

12 If it’s an initiation ritual you’re after, you’ve already been through it by submitting to baptism. Going under the water was a burial of your old life; coming up out of it was a resurrection, God raising you from the dead as he did Christ. MSG

1 PET 3:20 Because of their disobedience of long ago. For during the time of Noah God patiently waited while the ark was being prepared, but only a few were brought safely through the floodwaters: a total of eight souls.

▼▼▼

1 Peter 3:20  because they wouldn’t listen. You know, even though God waited patiently all the days that Noah built his ship, only a few were saved then, eight to be exact — saved from the water by the water.

 21 The waters of baptism do that for you, not by washing away dirt from your skin but by presenting you through Jesus’ resurrection before God with a clear conscience.  MSG

▼▼▼

1 Peter 3:20-21 the days of God’s great patience during the period of the building of the ark, in which eventually only eight souls were saved in the flood. And I cannot help pointing out what a perfect illustration this is of the way you have been admitted to the safety of the Christian “ark” by baptism, which means, of course, far more than the mere washing of a dirty body: it means the ability to face God with a clear conscience. For there is in every true baptism the virtue of Christ’s rising from the dead. And he has now entered Heaven and is at God’s right hand, with all angels, authorities and powers subservient to him. PHILLIPS

1 John 5:6  Jesus — the Divine Christ! He experienced a life-giving birth and a death-killing death. Not only birth from the womb, but baptismal birth of his ministry and sacrificial death.

NOTHING CAN GET BETWEEN US AND CHRIST’S LOVE AND FORGIVENESS

 11-6-23  VIDEO WE HAVE LOST WHO WE ARE 2

Nothing means- not any thing – in this world, or any other world. Nothing in our fear-based imagination. No part no how, not one thing, never, at now time, nix, not, zip. But sometimes we think our nothing is greater than Jesus ability to love us. Nothing can stop us because he loves us. God’s love and forgiveness for us makes nothing impossible for us.

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

32 The gift of his Son is the irrefutable evidence of God’s heart towards us. He held nothing in reserve; but freely gave everything we could ever wish to have; this is what our joint sonship is all about.

33 God has identified us, who can disqualify us? His word is our origin. No-one can point a finger; he declared us innocent.  

34 What further ground can there possibly be to condemn mankind? In his death he faced our judgment; in his resurrection he reveals our righteousness; the implications cannot be undone! He now occupies the highest seat of authority as the executive of our redemption in the throne room of God.  

35 What will it take to distance us from the love of Christ? You name any potential calamity: intense pressure of the worst possible kind, claustrophobia, persecution, destitution, loneliness, extreme exposure, life-threatening danger, or war? MIRROR

Rom 8:37 None of this fazes us because Jesus loves us.

38 I’m absolutely convinced that nothing — nothing living or dead, angelic or demonic, today or tomorrow,

39 high or low, thinkable or unthinkable — absolutely nothing can get between us and God’s love because of the way that Jesus our Master has embraced us. MSG

▼▼▼ 

ROM 8:37 On the contrary, in the thick of these things our triumph remains beyond dispute. His love has placed us above the reach of any onslaught.

38 This is my conviction; no threat whether it be in death or life; be it celestial messengers, demon powers or political principalities, nothing known to us at this time, or even in the unknown future;

39 no dimension of any calculation in time or space, nor any device yet to be invented, has what it takes to separate us from the love of God unveiled in our Lord, Jesus Christ.   MIRROR

Rom 8:1  With the arrival of Jesus, the Messiah, that fateful dilemma is resolved. Those who enter into Christ’s being-here-for-us no longer have to live under a continuous, low-lying black cloud.

 2 A new power is in operation. The Spirit of life in Christ, like a strong wind, has magnificently cleared the air, freeing you from a fated lifetime of brutal tyranny at the hands of sin and death. MSG

▼▼▼

ROM 8:1 Now the decisive conclusion is this: in Christ, every bit of condemning evidence against us is cancelled.  

2 The law of the Spirit is the liberating force of life in Christ. This leaves me with no further obligation to the law of sin and death. Spirit has superseded the sin enslaved senses as the principle law of our lives. MIRROR

▼▼▼

Romans 8:1So 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.

 2 For the “law” of the Spirit of life flowing through the anointing of Jesus has liberated us from the “law” of sin and death.

³For God achieved what the law was unable to accomplish, because the law was limited by the weakness of human nature. Yet God sent us his Son in human form to identify with human weakness. Clothed with humanity, God’s Son gave his body to be the sin-offering so that God could once and for all condemn the guilt and power of sin.

⁴So now every righteous requirement of the law can be fulfilled through the Anointed One living his life in us. And we are free to live, not according to our flesh, but by the dynamic power of the Holy Spirit!  TPT

2 Sam 7:19 But that’s nothing compared to what’s coming, for you’ve also spoken of my family far into the future, given me a glimpse into tomorrow, my Master God!

21 You’ve done all this not because of who I am but because of who you are — out of your very heart! — but you’ve let me in on it.  MSG

Rom 4:17  We call Abraham “father” not because he got God’s attention by living like a saint, but because God made something out of Abraham when he was a nobody. Isn’t that what we’ve always read in Scripture, God saying to Abraham, “I set you up as father of many peoples”? Abraham was first named “father” and then became a father because he dared to trust God to do what only God could do: raise the dead to life, with a word make something out of nothing.

18 When everything was hopeless, Abraham believed anyway, deciding to live not on the basis of what he saw he couldn’t do but on what God said he would do. And so he was made father of a multitude of peoples. God himself said to him, “You’re going to have a big family, Abraham!”   MSG

[He is condemned for refusing to let his trust rest in Christ’s name.]   AMP

▼▼▼

John 3:18 Anyone who trusts in him is acquitted; anyone who refuses to trust him has long since been under the death sentence without knowing it. And why? Because of that person’s failure to believe in the one-of-a-kind Son of God when introduced to him. MSG

Rom 8:12 So don’t you see that we don’t owe this old do-it-yourself life one red cent.

13 There’s nothing in it for us, nothing at all. The best thing to do is give it a decent burial and get on with your new life.

14 God’s Spirit beckons. There are things to do and places to go!   MSG

1 JOHN 4:11 Loved Ones! If this is true about God’s love for us, it is equally true of his love in us for others!

12 God was never visible to anyone until Jesus brought him into full view; now your love does the same! Our love for one another is evidence of God’s seamless union with mankind as witnessed in his love perfected within us!  MIRROR

Romans 4:6Even King David himself speaks to us regarding the complete wholeness that comes inside a person when God’s powerful declaration of righteousness is heard over our life. Apart from our works, God’s work is enough.

⁸What happy progress comes to them when they hear the Lord speak over them,

LIGHT THE GREATEST OF GOD’S CREATED WORKS  10-1-23 

VIDEO JESUS IS LIGHT 2

Light the greatest of Gods created works. The most important and powerful work of God is light. Without light there would be no form of life. Light is always associated with goodness. Its source is in God and the light defeats darkness. In the Hebrew, the word darkness is misery, destruction, and death. The light is the eternal light of God, which cannot be extinguished. And Jesus is the light of the world. Jesus is not only the manifestation of light. He is the source of all life and light.

GEN 1:1-2 In the Beginning When’ God’ created the heavens and the earth, the earth was completely formless and empty, with nothing but darkness draped over the deep. God’s Spirit hovered over the face of the waters.

3 And God announced; “Let there be light,” and light burst forth!’

4 And God saw the light as pleasing and beautiful; he used the light to dispel the darkness. God called the light “Day,” and the darkness “Night.” And so, evening gave way to morning the first day. TPT

LIVING IN THE FULLNESS OF GOD 9-24-23 VIDEO

What does it mean to live your life in the fullness of God? Fullest means a sense of completion, wholeness, sense of being filled to capacity. Living in God’s fullness or completeness was not possible until Christ came for us. Our fullness impacts everything finding its place in Christ. Our fullness in Christ is our completeness and makes us able to enter into His rest. Spiritual authority, moral excellence and character (holiness, righteousness, love). God wants us to be filled with his fullness both individually and collectively, as the Church. If we have already received the fullness of God, and it’s in us already, let’s not postpone till tomorrow what is ours today.

Eph 3:19 [That you may really come] to know [practically, through experience for yourselves] the love of Christ, which far surpasses mere knowledge [without experience]; that you may be filled [through all your being] unto all the fullness of God [may have the richest measure of the divine Presence, and become a body wholly filled and flooded with God Himself]!  AMP
