Make The Right Choice

Trouble travels. Each time we face a challenge of any kind we have choices.  Those choices determine our outcome.  We can dwell on the problem and talk about it or focus on the life giving Word of Father God and speak the Truth of what He says about us and our lives.

We become like the people with whom we spend the most time.  We mirror what we gaze upon the most.  

Wow!  What concepts.  What truth.

Father God continually points us to His transforming Word truths.
We are transformed as we spend time marinating in our wonderful blood-bought new covenant.  We are being transformed as we look into the Word and see  our wonderful Jesus, His finished work and how loved we are.  We are transformed into His very image. 

2 Corinthians 3:18 - Mirror Translation
'And we all, with new understanding, see ourselves in Him as in a mirror; thus we are changed from an inferior mindset to the revealed opinion of our true Origin.'

2 Corinthians 3:17, 18 The Message
'They suddenly recognize that God is a living, personal presence, not a piece of chiseled stone. And when God is personally present, a living Spirit, that old, constricting legislation is recognized as obsolete. We're free of it! All of us! Nothing between us and God…our faces shining with the brightness of his face.'
 
 1 Corinthians 2:9-12 Amplified Bible (AMP)
9But, on the contrary, as the Scripture says, What eye has not seen and ear has not heard and has not entered into the heart of man, [all that] God has prepared (made and keeps ready) for those who love Him [[a]who hold Him in affectionate reverence, promptly obeying Him and gratefully recognizing the benefits He has bestowed].

    10Yet to us God has unveiled and revealed them by and through His Spirit, for the [Holy] Spirit searches diligently, exploring and examining everything, even sounding the profound and bottomless things of God [the [b]divine counsels and things hidden and beyond man's scrutiny].

    11For what person perceives (knows and understands) what passes through a man's thoughts except the man's own spirit within him? Just so no one discerns (comes to know and comprehend) the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God.

    12Now we have not received the spirit [that belongs to] the world, but the [Holy] Spirit Who is from God, [given to us] that we might realize and comprehend and appreciate the gifts [of divine favor and blessing so freely and lavishly] bestowed on us by God.

It has been wonderful to hear from so many of you with your prayer requests and your praise reports. I am so thankful that we can encourage you in any way in the Lord.

In His amazing Love,
