James 4:5 (TSI3) Even the Scriptures say, “The Spirit of God who lives in us is jealous and wants a complete faithfullness to Him.” Do you think that verse is just nonsense ?!

Numbers 6:5 (NIV)During the entire period of their Nazirite vow, no razor may be used on their head. They must be holy until the period of their dedication to the Lord is over; they must let their hair grow long.

Luke 14:26 (Easy-to-Read Version) “If you come to me but will not leave your family, you cannot be my follower. You must love me more than your father, mother, wife, children, brothers, and sisters—even more than your own life!

The Holy Spirit keeps bringing out the word ‘bonding’ in my heart these past few weeks. This morning I got the verse above and the explanation below regarding the meaning of the word:

To make our hearts full with complete peace and joy, He wants us to have an ‘bonding only to the Holy Spirit. Because the source of true peace is only from the Holy Spirit. Know that friendship (bonding, sense of belonging) with what is in this world will only make our emotions tossed around.
it seems like ‘inhumane’ when we ‘only direct the bonding that we have completely only to God, not to others’, but that is precisely what will make ‘the closest people to us’ experience the flow of touch of God’s love. Because when we become wholly His, then at that time we will completely become a PORTAL of encounter between man and God and we ourselves will manifest Christ. Isn’t that (Christ) what the closest people to us need?
When our ‘bonding’ is still not entirely to God, then that’s when there is an opportunity for other spirits to manifest themselves through us.

Ephesians 4:26-27 (NIV) In your anger do not sin: Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry, and do not give the devil a foothold.

I comprehend more  the meaning of loving God with all my heart, soul and strength, it speaks fully about our mind being united with God alone. This is the determining factor of unshakable life in His Kingdom: full of truth, peace, and joy.

Believe me, the time will come when large number of people will seek that peace and joy in us. We will show them the way of connecting with the reality of God. This is the only way to enjoy heaven on earth!!

Revelation 21:3-4 (NIV) And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’[a] or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”#ILoveGod

    Romans 4:17-18 (The Message) 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”…
