The Cure

Gallery Leave a comment

I saw a tweet. I saw a post. And to me both were inflammatory; yet, I think they were not meant to be. We the People are inflamed and we need no more fuel for the fire. Racism. It sells. It promotes. It hurts. It kills. And it is totally curable.

Abba, I pray for every person of every color and shade in this Country that is contributing to racism that You will confront them, convict them, and convince them to repent of this sin. It seems to me, and You know I want You to correct me every time I am wrong about anything, that racism has been with us too long. And it seems to me that what we humans have been doing is obviously not working to cool the flame. I see nothing on the human horizon that will douse the red hot tempers we witness nearly daily on media screens. But I have seen Your Ways and they work. Every time. You deliver people from racism. I have seen You do it. And it is so good! I want to see more. So I am asking You to make a way; open doors for us to do this thing Your way. This I know, Abba, You are the only way to heal a soul and cure them of racism and that is what I am asking You to do; one by one get all up in our mess, our business, our families, and our friends and heal us I pray in JESUS’ Holy and Mighty Name. 

Ephesians, Questions

That’s a Good Question or Two

Ephesians 3:16 Amplified Bible (AMP) 16 May He grant you out of the riches of His glory, to be strengthened and spiritually energized with power through His Spirit in your inner self, [indwelling your innermost being and personality],  source

In verse 16 Paul sets forth what he is praying for the people.

To be strengthened.
Okay. Who of us does not need to be strengthened?

But he does not stop there.
He says he is praying they will be SPIRITUALLY ENERGIZED WITH POWER. And how and where is this power to come?
From themselves, their own undertakings and doings?
NO. THROUGH HIS SPIRIT.
And where is this SPIRIT OF THE LIVING GOD?
In them, it reads.

Is this still true? Is He in us? Then why are we not so spiritually energized? Why do we conduct ourselves as powerless people?

This is not a feel-good message, is it? Have we had too many feel-good messages? Is that why we conduct ourselves as people with little to no power to see GOD working and changing and transforming our lives and the lives of those we love?

So, now what?
Where will you go from this verse?
Where will I?
