Isaiah wrote by The Holy Spirit in chapter 1:
18 “Come now, and let us reason together,”
Says the LORD,
“Though your sins are like scarlet,
They shall be as white as snow;
Though they are red like crimson,
They shall be as wool.
19 If you are willing and obedient,
You shall eat the good of the land;
We are called to not only be obedient, but we must be willing as well. Our willingness must come from our heart and not our head out of compliance of some legalistic requirement.
Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Romans chapter 8:
1 So now the case is closed. There remains no accusing voice of condemnation against those who are joined in life-union with Jesus, the Anointed One.
If there is just one verse we need to grasp, it is the Good News of our life-union with Jesus! Those accusing voices have no basis by which we can be kept in the chains of our past thoughts and acts for we have truly been redeemed by HIS Blood. This freedom should motivate each of us to seek out the richness of walking with Jesus and in His provision.
We should be looking for ways to be a blessing to others and spread the great news of a life without guilt and deception. There is no more confusion brought on by those voices of condemnation telling you and me we are not “good enough” in some area in order to be accepted. Our Heavenly Father Loves us for who we are for HE formed us in the womb by HIS Design. Why would I challenge HIM and HIS Design for me?
2 For the “law” of the Spirit of life flowing through the anointing of Jesus has liberated us from the “law” of sin and death. 3 For God achieved what the law was unable to accomplish, because the law was limited by the weakness of human nature.
Yet God sent us his Son in human form to identify with human weakness. Clothed with humanity, God’s Son gave his body to be the sin-offering so that God could once and for all condemn the guilt and power of sin. 4 So now every righteous requirement of the law can be fulfilled through the Anointed One living his life in us. And we are free to live, not according to our flesh, but by the dynamic power of the Holy Spirit!
We are meant to live by the dynamic power of The Holy Spirit in all areas of our life, not just on occasion or by some special event, we are to live each day with HIS power flowing through us. This power is to minister life to others whom we come into contact. We are to be a blessing and access the resources of Heaven to distribute according to what the Spirit directs.
5 Those who are motivated by the flesh only pursue what benefits themselves. But those who live by the impulses of the Holy Spirit are motivated to pursue Spiritual realities. 6 For the mind-set of the flesh is death, but the mind-set controlled by the Spirit finds life and peace.
What mind-set promotes life? There are many who are constantly attempting to fill the gaps in their life by external stimulus. If they could just experience something new, surely that would satisfy their flesh. People are trying various forms of stimulus in hope of some fulfillment but that simply will not happen. Only The Holy Spirit can enrich our life with the fruit of THE SPIRIT.
People want life and peace. Instead, many live with fear, uncertainty, and doubt… every day. Fear causes walls to be built up in young children. This is one reason why we help the impoverished kids. We don’t want them to erect walls of protection when we have the capacity to minister normality in their lives. They need to know that someone Loves them without any strings attached. That applies to all we come into contact on a daily basis.
Let us live by those impulses of The Holy Spirit which are accessible to us on a moment by moment basis. This will cause us to eat the good of the land and help provide for others. Our daily priorities reflect our choice!
