Would
you like to have your life changed? As an authentic Christian, the Holy Spirit
is present to fill us with all the fullness of God, and this is the key to
walking in His serenity each moment of our day, regardless of our circumstances.
What
is it in your life that is causing you a problem right now? Can you do something about it? Then, do it!
If not, then change your focus and completely give the problem to God.
We empty ourselves of
our inner clutter by journaling until we are totally void of our self and our
issues, and totally filled with all the fullness of God (Ephesians 3:14-19,
Amplified).
He gives us wisdom and a
vision for His plan for our life. Often, this terrifies us so much, that we
fall on our face before Him, and pray that He will give us the fortitude and
persistence to accomplish His will.
His Holy Spirit
strengthens us and leads us each moment of the day as God's plan unfolds before
us. We draw closer to Christ in us and completely trust Him with our
circumstances.
Spending time in
continuous prayer all day, we send our roots deeper into the soil of God's
marvelous love. As His children, we experience and understand the four
dimensions of His love for us, and we take heart through our trials (Ephesians
3:18).
God completely fills
every fiber of our being with Himself, and we learn to rely on Him, trust in
Him and walk by the direction of His Holy Spirit every moment of our day
(Ephesians 3:19).
As we simplify our life
by getting rid of the inner clutter first by journaling, then having a garage
sale to rid our home and office of all unnecessary clutter; and then abiding in
the Vine, we allow the Holy Spirit to lead us moment-by-moment throughout the
day and night.
Prayer:
Father God, teach us to
continually dwell with Your Spirit who abides within us in the inner sanctum of
our spirit. As we walk in Your Spirit's direction, we observe as You use us for
Your purposes all through the day, and we enjoy the fruit of our labor and
success in our endeavors. Remind us to relinquish our anxiety to You, and not
to pay attention to Satan's worries and distractions, which attempt to
monopolize our time and energy.
We do not want to run
through life at full speed all day and then fall into an exhausted sleep all
night. We do not want our mind to fill with distracted clutter all day so that
we get pulled in too many directions at one time without Your goals and
purpose. We want to be so Spirit-led in body, soul and spirit that You can use
us to build Your Kingdom on this earth through one heart at a time.
Thought for the Day:
God’s voice cannot
compete with our distractions or penetrate our awareness, because the clutter in
our life is too overpowering and we are not listening for His voice; however, the
fulfilled life, guided by the Spirit of God, takes time and effort and
commitment, but our thoughts which are totally Spirit led, when acted upon,
will bear fruit for the kingdom of God.
