Thoughts on God's Life

When I am born again, I am righteous. According to Proverbs 12:28, in the way of righteousness is God’s life and the pathway no death. Therefore, as God’s righteous one, the way before me, my destiny, my future, my pathway is only LIFE HIMSELF.

When I open the door to Jesus, when I am born again, I open the door and Jesus comes in to live with His life, making me His temple, His sanctuary, His dwelling place of life. Then God’s Life lives in me.

When I got born again, Jesus, in the person of the Holy Spirit, the Living Word, came to dwell in my spirit. As I study, meditate and speak His written Word, He comes to dwell in my mind. That written Word is given life by the Living Word Himself Who is dwelling in me. I take in the written word by study, meditation, and confession and the Holy Spirit converts it to His living, life-giving material, heavenly substance called faith.

Every organ, every tissue, every cell in my body operates and functions in the perfection to which God created it to function because Life Himself created my body and Life Himself, Who is in me, sustains me. That’s one of the reasons God wants me to accept Jesus because Life Himself comes to live in me and my body to keep it well through His life flow. He wants me to complete the assignment He has called me to do. He doesn’t want it cut short by my having to vacate the body He has prepared for me while I am here on this earth. It is not God’s design or plan for me to leave here because a diseased body forced an early leaving, before I have accomplished what He called me to do. That is why it is so important that you and I understand the eternal life, zoe, Who is the Holy Spirit living in us, ever pouring forth His Life into us.

So Life Himself is living in me in my spirit, and my spirit is the heavenly connector. Since I live on earth in an earthly, fleshly body, I need my earthly connector, my soul, which consists of my mind, my will and my emotions, to be filled with Life Himself through His Word so that Life flow between my soul (earthly) and my spirit (heavenly) takes care of my earthly body. Why? Because there’s a unity, an agreement between my soul and my spirit and Life is then a continual, uninterrupted flow between the two, with God being the life force orchestrating and taking care of it all.

My soul takes in God’s Word and His Word food is converted into God’s Life force, Life Himself. And my life flow, Life Himself, flows to every cell of my body, keeping me in divine life health, a divinely healthy life. God’s living Word, Jesus, is then free to manifest Himself in my mortal body through the power and person of the Holy Spirit.

As I speak God’s Word, I give His Word a voice, and His Word releases the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus and that law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus frees me, gives me freedom, makes me free from the law of sin and death. This word “makes” here is like you make a pot of soup or make a piece of pottery. It’s made. It’s there. It’s done. It’s established. Even so, you are “made” free.

John 10:10 says that Jesus came so that He could release God’s life in fullness, overflow, abundance. All we have to do is accept Him Who is Life Himself and He is free to operate in us and for us, on our behalf, with His Life.

John 1:16 and Deuteronomy 28:47-----abundance is the fullness of God’s Life.

Every time my heart beats, God’s life is surging through me and cleansing me of all disease, washing away all things that cause pain and continually refreshing me, restoring me with His Life.

God is total life—nothing else—he is in me with total life.

My body will not be deceived by somebody saying to it—you’re sick when I have been made free, when God’s life is flowing through me continually.

Now, I can stop up, dam up that life by the sin of unbelief, doubt, fear, cares, or any other sin like adultery, or lying or disobedience or envy or gossip or criticism or offense.

Jesus, Life Himself, has made His life available to me. What I must do is accept it and enforce it in my body, enforce it in my soul by thinking life and speaking life (my mind full of the life of the Word, my will conformed to His will and Life, my emotions under the control of the Holy Spirit of Life) and enforce God’s Life in my spirit. I enforce God’s life in all three parts of me—spirit, soul and body—by choice, by decision every moment of every day. I CHOOSE GOD’S LIFE. THAT IS MY CHOICE. I REFUSE TO HAVE ANY OTHER CHOICE BEFORE ME. HE IS MY LIFE.
