Righteousness, Peace, & Joy In The Holy Ghost
Rom 14:17 for the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking [what
one likes], but of righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.
What we don't see in our life and in God's word has everything to do with
how long you stay frustrated, depressed or in fear!!
Eph 1:17 [I always pray] that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of
glory, may grant you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation [that gives you a
deep and personal and intimate insight] into the true knowledge of Him [for we
know the Father through the Son].
Eph 1:18 And [I pray] that the eyes of your heart [the very center and core
of your being] may be enlightened [flooded with light by the Holy Spirit],
so that you will know and cherish the hope [the divine guarantee, the confident
expectation] to which He has called you, the riches of His glorious inheritance in the
saints (God's people),
Eph 1:19 and [so that you will begin to know/SEE] what the immeasurable
and unlimited and surpassing greatness of His [active, spiritual] power is in us who
believe. These are in accordance with the working of His mighty strength
Only when we begin to see things that we haven’t seen will we start thinking in
ways that we haven’t thought.
Only when we start thinking in ways that we haven’t thought will we start
believing things that we haven't really believed.
Only when we start really believing things that you haven’t believed will we
finally... everybody say... Finally
Finally, you will start saying from the heart things that we should be saying.
Our Breakthrough will come out of our mouth before we experience it.
Our Difficulty will come out of our mouth before we experience it.
Rom 14:17 for the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking [what
one likes], but of righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.
Revelation on our Righteousness In Christ has everything to do with what we
SEE, What we Believe and What we Say!!!
Faith in our heart will cause us speak TO our mountain.
Fear in our heart will cause us speak ABOUT our mountain.
John 20:24 One of the twelve wasn’t present when Jesus appeared to them—it
was Thomas, whose nickname was “the Twin.” :25 So the disciples informed him,
“We have seen the Lord with our own eyes!” Still unconvinced, Thomas replied,
“There’s no way I’m going to believe this unless I personally see the wounds
of the nails in his hands, touch them with my finger, and put my hand into
the wound of his side where he was pierced!”
John 20:26 Then eight days later, Thomas and all the others were in the
house together. And even though all the doors were locked, Jesus suddenly
stood before them! “Peace to you,” he said. 27 Then, looking into Thomas’
eyes, he said, “Put your finger here in the wounds of my hands. Here—put
your hand into my wounded side and see for yourself. Thomas, don’t give in
to your doubts any longer, just believe!”
John 20:28 Then the words spilled out of his heart—“You are my Lord, and
you are my God!” :29 Jesus responded, “Thomas, now that you’ve seen me,
you believe. But there are those who have never seen me with their eyes but
have believed in me with their hearts, and they will be blessed even more!”
Heb 10:35 So don’t lose your bold, courageous faith, for you are destined
for a great reward! :36 You need the strength of endurance to reveal the
poetry of God’s will and then you receive the promise in full. 37 For soon
and very soon, “The One who is appearing will come without delay!” :38
And he also says, “My righteous ones will live from my faith. But if fear
holds them back, my soul is not content with them!”
Heb 10:39 But we are certainly not those who are held back by fear and
perish; we are among those who have faith and experience true life!
Heb 13:5 Let your character [your moral essence, your inner nature] be free
from the love of money [shun greed--be financially ethical], being content
with what you have; for He has said, "I WILL NEVER [under any
circumstances] DESERT YOU [nor give you up nor leave you without
support, nor will I in any degree leave you helpless], NOR WILL I FORSAKE
or LET YOU DOWN or RELAX MY HOLD ON YOU [assuredly not]!" :6 SO
WE TAKE COMFORT AND ARE ENCOURAGED AND CONFIDENTLY SAY,
"THE LORD IS MY HELPER [in time of need], I WILL NOT BE AFRAID. WHAT
WILL MAN DO TO ME?"
Psa 46:1 God, you’re such a safe and powerful place to find refuge! You’re a
proven help in time of trouble—more than enough and always available
whenever I need you.
Psa 34:4 Listen to my testimony: I cried to God in my distress and he
answered me. He freed me from all my fears!
Our Faith is located in our heart!!!
ROM 10:10 FOR WITH THE HEART A PERSON BELIEVES
1 Peter 4:12 Beloved friends, if life gets extremely difficult, with many tests,
don’t be bewildered as though something strange were overwhelming you.
13 Instead, continue to rejoice, for you, in a measure, have shared in the
sufferings of the Anointed One so that you can share in the revelation of his
glory and celebrate with even greater gladness!
Make a Joyful Noise to the Lord
Psa 98:4 So go ahead, everyone, and shout out your praises with joy! Break
out of the box and let loose with the most joyous sound of praise! :5 Sing
your melody of praise to the Lord and make music like never before!
