For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.(Rom 8:5) And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness (Rom 8:10).
The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:
And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together. For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God. (Rom 8:16-19),
We strain for significance is carnal. The striving for material things
is vanity. The one thing we overlook is this. The transformation and
manifestation of the Sons of God. Unknown, their lives are hidden in
Christ. They seek no titles or credit, pulpit or office for their office
is in Christ. They seek no promotion or elevation for Christ has seated
them in heavenly places. They may not own houses, gold, stocks and
shares for they are partaken of a heavenly inheritance where moth dust
and thieves cannot steal or take away. They are the owners of eternal
things, possessing nothing they have all things. Theses are they who
have their robes made of white, dipped in blood. man cannot kill them
and death cannot hold them. Martyrdom cannot defeat them and religion
cannot hold them. Welcome to the manifestation of the true Sons of
God. (Col 3:3 Ephesians 2:6 Rev 7:14).

A REVIVAL Where God gets all the Glory
A REVIVAL WHERE GOD GET'S THE GLORY... Oh the shame of it its true many have found easier ways of getting folks to the altars.
Like raising their hand and repeating a simple prayer, no contrition or
conversion, just commotion. "Just stand a while while the evangelist
prays for you!" No fire. No God, no power. Then he places the pictures on
his website saying he's anointed and is gifted and now should be followed and contacted. Gifted to do
what! Get folks to mock him in his self conceit and pride. The crowds
are never a sign of God's power. If the crowd promotes you then the crowd will use you. If man can set you up man can sit you down. It is the gospel that's preached is the
sign of God power for God alone has power. I want to see a revival where
God alone gets the credit don't You!

Liberty .. The Power of God's Law
I will walk at liberty for I seek they precepts (Psalm 119:45)
The rewards for loving the law are affirmed Great Peace have they which love thy law and nothing shall offend them (119:165).
The Law of Liberty
Man is a slave to political correctness, systems of men, religions of the masses and his own unbelief. We live in a society where the ungodly are easily offended. Since they don't know who they they will criticize a man of God who knows who he himself is. Authority comes from our God, so does liberty. Liberty belongs to those who have truth and it is this God given truth that sets a soul free. I walk in liberty because I seek thy precepts. Because we love God's law. God's law is liberating not enslaving and because of this, nothing offends us. Chew us out, call us devils, say we are a cult! fine, your opinion will die with you. Truth lives on. It's as eternal as the God who is truth. Jesus is his name.
The Peace of Liberty
Secondly the man of God walks in liberty.
I love America but I often wonder whether it really is still the land of the free! But i do know a land where freedom lives. land of true hope and God's glory. That's where the man of peace dwells. Beulah land. Zion city of our God. and as citizens we declare, "Great peace" belongs to us. Do you have this peace? Seek the law of God. Great peace have they that love it.
The Power of Liberty
Groups, networks, infidels and hatemongerers are fighting, even killing for liberty, but one can live in a free country and still not himself be a free man. In fact no man is truly free unless he is free on the inside and to be free on the inside he needs Christ. Christ alone changes the nature. Change all the rules you like and all the laws you like one cannot be free until he comes to Christ and Christ lives in him for only Christ the giver and creator of man can change a mans nature.
If the Muslims makes a nation Islam and impose sharia law, is he a free man simply because there are no Christians there? No. In fact if all he has is his own law then he all the more his own prisoner. his own devil, his own deceiver. Himself his own god. Neither can a man escape God's laws or God himself by getting rid of the bible which holds its law of God
Man will constantly make more and more laws in the hope to obtain more and more freedom for its citizens but the more laws one makes the more freedom one looses, only in Christ and his law can man be free.
Even there are even certain "Christians" want to get rid of the law, however the law which seemingly is our enemy is our best friend. God's laws are also inescapable for they are written on the hearts of man. Man meditates on God's law day and night. O see my friend that is not legalism that's liberty we reward it constantly for we love it eternally! Its not a religious recitation but a living power that frees the man from the snares of human limitation, fears and angers. Wesley taught that the law should be taught and preached as a stepping stone to the gospel. How true this is. Great is thy Law and in it I will meditate day and night for then you will make your way prosperous and then you will have good success (Joshua 1:8).

Conformed, Deformed or Transformed?
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect. (Romans 12:2).
DON'T LET THE WORLD SQUEEZE YOU INTO ITS MOLD
DON'T LET THE WORLD SQUEEZE YOU INTO ITS MOLD
A dear Sister gave her testimony. Its bad and we need to prepare ourselves she said. Its getting worse and worse and we need to prepare" Oh Dear. I thought. are we not a people of faith! The news is bleak, always is. No matter if we are in peace or war. Its bleak!. One reason that I did not listen to the news for one whole year. Why feed your mind on the devils garbage which adds nothing to my soul except misery! To be quite frank with you the Church is just as messed up as some "believers." I'm not sure if "believer" is the right word there, neither am I really sure about the accuracy and validity of our interpretation of the END. Well that's another subject. It seems that when it comes to END times we are the first to get into this negative doomsday way of thinking. People of the faith!OK enough! Let's look at Paul's exhortation here.
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect. (Romans 12:2).
CONFORMED "To be or act in accord with a set of standards, expectations, or specifications" (Dictionary)
be act in accord with a set of expectations or to expect what the world around you expects. To see it as they see it and act like they act as a result.
"Conformed " To be act in accord with a set of expectations or to expect what the world around you expects. To see it as they see it and act like they act as a result. "Conformed" To act, often unquestioningly, in accordance with traditional customs or prevailing standards:" (FREE DICT).
I don't know about you but I don't want to be a part of traditional and customary way of thinking on events that promote fear and retreat in the people of God. Even today's prophets will take what's said in the news then teach it as prophesy.It seems to me that the sicker the news is the more readily some preach it as prophecy. Its a case of hearing the world in conversation and since they are in the dark they talk as if there is no hope. Friend we are not the lost trying to find hope we are the found who have come out of the darkness. Our greatest day is not behind us its ahead!
Every generation has its evils which try to get Gods people to engage, embrace and conform. FW Robertson once said " "In the days of Noah the spirit of the world was violence. In Elijah's day it was idolatry. In the day of Christ it was power, concentrated and condensed in the government of Rome. In ours, perhaps, it is the love of money." To conform is to embrace and take on its spirit. the spirit of whoever shouts the loudest. To CONFORM is to believe as the world believes because it receives what the world readily receives.
NAS: And do not be conformed to this world, KJV: be not conformed to this world: INT: And not fashion yourselves to the age.
I don't want to be con-formed that is and excuse the play on the word here but "formed because of a con" Con- formed. I want to be formed by God and his word to me. Truth in the inward parts. If anything must shape me its truth.Truth will put me in shape, you too! Conforming to the worlds ideas will deform but believing God's will will transform. Don't take on is shape or let the worldly perspective shape your way of thinking which gives you a bleak outlook altogether. If we conform we will be confounded! Here's the solution. Preach Jesus and be TRANSFORMED by his word and the good news for everybody.
Brother Paul.

The One "Echad" God
DEUTERONOMY 6:4 Hear, O Israel: The LLORD our God is one (echad) LORD:
Not one as "united one" not three in one or three persons as one. That's what religion has told us. Notice Lord and God are connected here. "Lord" and "God" are not two persons. Psalms tells us the Lord he is God. (Psalm 100:3) Lord being a human title and God representing deity. so we see the duality of natures not plurality of persons. In saying the Lord is God The Lord himself is revealing the God of both New and Old testament, as being one. Some versions give give Jehovah instead of LORD in capitals. Further proof of the oneness of God. Know that the LORD is God. (NIV) Know that the LORD himself is God (NASB) Realize that the LORD alone is God (GOD'S WORD TRANS). The ONE (Echad) Lord is the true and only God!
