DO YOU HAVE
THE MIND OF
CHRIST?!
On a night of March, I heard God ministering
to my heart.
“In all that-the way
how you think and the way how you
do things, make your whole motives right with
me.”
It is all about the
motives behind the things I do, what matters most to God is my heart.
As
I went on wondering what is it all about, I asked the Lord to deepen this knowledge
to me. And
the LORD opened my eyes to this understanding:
He
gave me these two scriptures:
comes the reply of the tongue. All man’s ways seem innocent
to him, but motives are weighed by the LORD (Prov.16:1-2)
(Isa.43:18)
The LORD brought me to read the book
of Haggai:
In the old time, God’s Glory used to
appear in temple built by men with careful instructions from the man of God.
But in the New Testament, God said He is coming to live in us and we are His
habitation.
IN THE BOOK OF HAGGAI: AS FOR TODAY, GOD CALLS US TO PREPARE FOR HIS
GLORY TO BE REVEALED IN US.
As for today Haggai 1:2- We thought that
there will still be time…. enjoying, living our own lives…The LORD will not be
back so soon….thinking that we still have time for repentance. Instead of preparation, we have burdened God
with our sins and wearied Him with our offenses all the more.
Haggai 1:3-4-
The LORD asks: Where will be my resting place?
Where is the
house you will build for me? (Isa.66:1) God is looking for a PURE HEART / BLAMELESS SOUL!!
Haggai 1:5-11-
When we lust/pursue after the things of this world…we can
never feel like we
have enough…we will never be able to experience satisfaction/contentment.
Because the LORD will not permit it. (read Col.3:1-11)
Haggai 1:8-
God calls us to produce good fruit (righteousness) instead of bad
fruit
(wickedness) in all our conducts so that He can come and
manifest His glorious presence in us. READ PSALM 24- THE COMING
BACK OF THE RISEN KING. – Who will be that has prepared?!!
When we are willing to repent of all our sins,
the LORD is eager to assist us and give us victory over all those false gods
(anything that we used to adore, admire or worship and has taken the place of THE TRUE LIVING GOD in
our HEARTS
and in our lives ). – Haggai 1:12-15, 2:1-5
Haggai 2:6, 22 -
God is doing the shaking already/now. He calls us to ready for His Glory. Prepare a whole
pure heart for Him, a whole blameless body for His Glory to manifest. And in
the end, only those who have repented of all their sins and have consecrated
their whole body and mind to Yeshua/Jesus Christ will remain.
May God
himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through.
May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept
blameless at the coming
of the Lord Jesus Christ. (1 Thes.5:23)THE OLD HAS GONE, THE NEW HAS COME! (2 Cor.5:17)
The
earth is just used as a testing place for us, simply a school to get
certificate to examine our motives and determine our destination.
Our
result is based on the kind of spiritual fruits we produce/own/ possess.
“Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past.”
(Isa.43:18)
Let go of all your fear and only think of
whatever is true, noble, pure, lovely and admirable – Anything that is
exceptional and praiseworthy. Dwell on hope, live in love and always follow the
path of peace. And do not go back into slavery again, for God has not called us
to suffer wrath, but to come into the knowledge of the Holy One who can either
destroy the soul or give eternal life.
Walk in the way of Divine Love – On earth we
need to learn and enter into this understanding (the revelation of the Father’s
Love) so that we will not get lost (lost in the past or present want). Only in His Love will we find liberty, joy and
peace. We are created by LOVE Himself.
Our highest calling is to learn to love as the Divine Loves.
He has made everything beautiful in
its time. he has also set eternity in the hearts of
men;
yet they cannot fathom what God has done from the beginning to end. (Job
3:11)
THE AGES TO COME!
He who believes in me will live, even though he dies;
and whoever lives and believes in me will never die.
Do you believes this?” (John 11:25-26)
God made us alive in Christ. He
forgave all our sins and disclosed to all his true followers of Christ the
glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of
glory. Col.1:26-27
Old Testament (Natural) -- New Testament (Spiritual) -- New
Heaven and Earth (Eternal)
We are on the transformation/transition from
Spiritual to Eternal.
We have/need to consecrate/commit to
train ourselves to work out our salvation
so as to change from glory to glory to the level that we can walk up to the
sky/eternity.
Our flesh shall decay, human body
does not last forever. But whoever has the Spirit of the eternal God shall live
forever.
12No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us
and his love is made complete in us. 13We know that we live in him and
he in us, because he has given us his Spirit. (1 John 4:12-13)
Eternity must be led by the Spirit –
dwelling with all those past error will bring us nowhere except leading us into
deception, read Psalm 37, what and how we
think is who we are for our destiny. To get rid of those thought (lies and
wickedness) is to renew our mind with the truth (The living words of God).
When our mind is renewed and we have
the mind of Christ, every motive behind all that we do, there will be no
hypocrisy, selfishness, evil or wickedness. It does not oppress others Rom.13:10.
To cross over to eternity requires
us to be in a higher level, for it is only a pure heart that can see God ! Where we need the Spirit to show us the way to
enter in. And the only way is through
LOVE. The requirement is to walk humbly and in love with your God.
2Jesus said, “In
my Father’s house are many rooms; if it were
not so, I would have told you. I am going
there to prepare a place for you. 3And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will
come back and take you to be with me that you also may be
where I am. (John 14;2-3)
Jesus
answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life.
No one comes to the Father accept through me. (John 14:7)
God is Love!!
