When the news about the world economic crisis became more and more widely heard, many people became afraid and then did a lot of ‘outward preparations and various strategies to survive’ in facing this period. That is the response and instinct of living things to ‘adapt and survive’.
This morning I suddenly understood something:
1. WE ARE NOT LIVING THINGS, BUT WE ARE A LIFE-GIVING SPIRIT.
We are not ordinary people, but new creations. So, the instinct that appears should not just be for survival, but for RULING AND REIGNING. The point is, we are not in a pressured position and adapt ourselves to the pressure, but we live from the Word which determines what should happen. So, we have a ‘different world’ from others.
Remember, never leave our true habitat, which is the reality of God’s presence. Make sure every day there is an awareness of the reality of God that surrounds our hearts. Let this grow stronger and deeper. Let us fervent in spirit and serve God!
2. THERE IS ONE VERSE OF THE WORD THAT BECOME A PROMISE OF GOD AND SPEAKS VERY POWERFUL IN MY HEART BECOME A STRONG CONVICTION!
Isaiah 43:1-2 (NKJV) But now, thus says the Lord, who created you, O Jacob, and He who formed you, O Israel: “Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by your name; You are Mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned, nor shall the flame scorch you.
Just make sure that the work of the Spirit and the Word always shapes and molds us into a person who is different from the world’s mold. In this way, we will experience the very real power of God’s sovereignty.
3. THE FATHER IS GIVING US ETERNAL PEACE – UNSHAKABLE PEACE!
We’ll walk on water, we’ll dance on fire! For indeed our footing is the ETERNAL WORD. Death is powerless against eternal life! We will become LIVING WITNESS that God is real and He is still working.
4. MAKE SURE WE ARE GETTING ‘CRAZY’ IN LOVE WITH GOD AND HIS WORD.
This is what will save us from the deceptions of Mammon and wealth. The inclination of our hearts will determine whether we will live or be destroyed in this last age. Make sure the inclination of our hearts is getting stronger, solid and united only in the reality of God!
5. MY SPIRIT IS STRONGLY FERVENT, THERE IS STRONG CONVICTION IN GOD’S PROMISE.
It is a promise that is certain and cannot be failed by anything and anyone. My part is just BELIEVING ONLY. AMEN!
