It is absolutely
crucial
to come to an overstanding.(Proverbs
2:10,11).of
how the Creator sees you in perfect righteousness but this can only
come to be real in your life according to how you see yourself to
be. One must see himself as happy, healthy, prosperous and having freedom
if he wishes that to be so in his life, because it's according
to your faith; according to what you feel is comfortable for you in
your life, that brings things into your life.
Anything
less, like guilt, is sin or 'missing the
mark' of what true spirituality is all about for an individual's life:.1John
5:17.
The Creator does not cause
things to come upon us according to the low consciousness we have lived
in:.Psalms
103:10 "He has not dealt with us after our sins, nor rewarded us according
to our iniquities."
It is very important
how one sees himself or herself, as it is the way to be under the grace
of the Creator.(2Corinthians
6:1), the way to having the grace
of the Creator active in your life:.Romans
5:21. It through knowing your present state in God.(that
you are indeed righteous).that
you obtain faith:.2Peter
1:1.
This fruit of righteousness
comes only by way of knowing you are at peace with God, that He has nothing
against you:.James
3:18. When you are sure that the Creator sees you as ok, you have peace
with Him and faith can flourish and you can be sure that you are listed
in the book of life. So,
how
do you get there? Clear the path of your life. Be careful what is in your
mind, example.
Seeing yourself as righteous
allows 'seeing' the source.(Isaiah
6:5;
Romans 1:17).of
this gift.(Romans
5:17;
Ephesians 2:8).of
righteousness.
The Creator sees you that
way:.2Corinthians
5:21. In fact God
sees you all ways. When you see yourself that way you can see how
not to be much more clearly too, and have the enthusiasm to hold fast
to what is right.(1Thessalonians
5:21; 2Timothy 1:13; Hebrews
3:6; 4:14; 10:23;
Revelation
2:25).and
no longer worry about any guilt that still may be bothering you:.Romans
8:1;
John 3:17,18.
Now we all know that we could
ask our friends about how righteous they think we are and a different answer
would be there. But God sees things very differently.
Take what God inspired to
be written about ancient Abraham, the."father
of the faithful":.Galatians
3:7, also in Romans 4:18-25
and compare it by reading
how Abraham
really was. That's because righteousness is a gift.(Romans
5:17).from
God enabling
a
relationship with Him, no matter how imperfect everyone knows that
we individually may be.
Know God's gifts for you,
so you can have a wonderful life, here and now and on into eternity. The
Holy Spirit is also a gift:.2Corinthians
6:19. One has to see this and learn how to use it, just like any gift.
What good is the gift of a computer to you if you don't know how to use
it and how it could be used?
My friend installed LNC.(Logic
Numerical Control).and
PLC.(Programmable
Logic Control).controlled
massive machines, machines that could perfectly cut up to 1200 logs an
hour in the exact sizes and finishes wanted. The machines themselves regulated
the feeding of the logs into the precise cutting mechanism. Some of these
machines can be much longer and much wider than a city block. They had
to be meticulously put together from pieces that were shipped to where
the machine was to be assembled.
Anyhow, some of the smaller
sized machines, each doing different things as required, were given as
a gift along with a new building, so workers could be inside, up in the
cold north where these particular machines were to be used. The idea was
to help these people toward having greater prosperity.
About five years later, my
friend Max, was in the vicinity of the area where he had installed the
machines. He wondered how they were doing and so took some time to travel
to where they were. As he got close, he could see the large building. As
he got closer he wondered about all the plastic covering some things up.
As he got closer he could see it was the machines he had installed. He
had to find out what was going on. He found out that the demand had dropped
for the wood products the machines produced, so they took all the machines
outside using cranes, placed them on the ground, covered them up poorly,
let them rust and turned the building into a bingo hall! The people just
didn't seek better ways or better markets for the product.
Lesson being, one has to
elevate the consciousness if he or she is ever to see opportunities for
improvement. And so, it is the same with us. To come out.(*).of
the limited world we know requires an elevated way of thinking. New and
better thoughts believed in, produces results accordingly. Learn
how to leave your limitations behind you, so that you are free to move
into great abundance, as so many others have done in the past.(two
examples).and
even more so today. Learn about these newer
ones.
Come to comprehend that
the Creator calls things as He sees them, not as they presently may be:.Romans
4:17. Creator deals with us by faith, just as He expects us to deal
with Him by faith. It's a spiritual thing. He knows that Christ
is able to 'get us there':.Ephesians
2:10. Do we know this?
James
3:18 "And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that
make peace.".So
it is important to realize that God sent the Comforter.(the
Holy Spirit, the Holy Nature of God as exemplified
in high consciousness).in
order that those who accept Christ
will have His peace.(John
14:26,27).in
spite of severe trials
life often presents, severe trials which often tear our lives to pieces.
Perhaps if that be the case it is time to pray the
prayer Jabez prayed.
Righteousness grows in the
peace we have with God because we have accepted Him, what
He did for us and showing us where
He is.
We accept
Him by believing in Him. We increase believe in Him by thinking, so
as to appreciate, why it is that He came. Appreciation of Him welcomes
Him into our hearts and minds. His attitude.(the
best there ever could be).becomes
our attitude.
When one knows that God views
him/her as being righteous, there is no longer reason to be in a state
of guilt and self condemnation.
In
spite of daily hardships,
we have His joy in our hearts.
It is by faith
we have access to God, not by whether we have eradicated
sin from our lives.
