True Relevance

Meggan D.Posted in General Discussion The Lord said, “You are holy because I have made you holy. I am in you manifesting through you. Give up your dead works, your efforts, and you’re striving to be relevant. You are not relevant because you are “dead”. We were crucified together and you no longer live, but I live in you. Focus on Me. Marinate in My presence. Then allow Me to move through you, moment by moment. Don’t have an agenda. Try not to figure it out in advance. Just yield to My Spirit. This will be spontaneous and unplanned. Don’t try to protect your reputation because the only opinion that matters is Mine.”👑🕊🔥🌟✨👑🕊🔥🌟✨Galations 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me. Romans 12:1 Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. Psalm 127:1 Unless the Lord builds the house, they labor in vain who build it; Unless the Lord guards the city, the watchman stays awake in vain.

Romans 5:3-4

LIVE OUT OF HIS VICTORY… NOT TOWARDS IT! Pierre Ferreira Posted in Daily Devotionals
During the last season of my life, I have once again learned so much about the human soul. We are so proned to protect ourselves and allow thoughts from the enemy to sneak in and either lift us up or break us down. The enemy is happy with both: one leads to arrogance, and the other is numbness. If we, however, seek God on a daily basis, and ask Him to open our eyes to TRUTH, we start to see Him as Love, and HIS life starts to feed us from the inside. We tend to want our circumstances to change quickly if we are surrounded by trouble or trials, but God uses circumstances to show us our own hearts and thoughts. If we surrender to HIM, and allow HIS life to lift us up, we will be able to gain a heavenly perspective from where HE has won, and our victory is in HIM, not in the circumstances. Faith is not in circumstances, but in JESUS and HIS victory! When we pray, let us make sure to surrender our own hearts before we do so, because if we pray with a predetermined mindset (cunningly planted by the enemy) on what we want GOD to say or what we want to have happen then all the enemy will do is trick you and tell you that GOD does not care about you and tell you what you want to hear. 1 Peter 3:12: “For the eyes of the LORD are on the righteous, and HIS ears are open to their prayer. But the face of the LORD is against those who do evil”. GOD has done everything that needed to be done to make atonement for your sin, so we can’t keep on sinning: Romans 6:1 Well then, shall we keep on sinning so that GOD can keep on showing us more and more kindness and forgiveness?
2-3 Of course not! Should we keep on sinning when we don’t have to? For sin’s power over us was broken when we became Christians and were baptized to become a part of Jesus Christ; through HIS death the power of your sinful nature was shattered. We are to follow HIS commands if we love HIM. 1 John 5:3AMP
For the [true] love of GOD is this: that we habitually keep HIS commandments and remain focused on HIS precepts. And HIS commandments and HIS precepts are not difficult [to obey]. Hebrews 10:1-8 For since the law has but a shadow of the good things to come instead of the true form of these realities, it can never, by the same sacrifices that are continually offered every year, make perfect those who draw near. 2 Otherwise, would they not have ceased to be offered, since the worshipers, having once been cleansed, would no longer have any consciousness of sins? 3 But in these sacrifices there is a reminder of sins every year. 4 For it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins. JESUS died on that cross, paid the full price, and rose again to make atonement for our sins. Strive for heaven every day. 1 Corinthians 9:24: “Do you not know that those who run in a race all run, but one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may obtain it.” Live out of JESUS’ Victory!
