The Spirit and the bride say, “Come.” Let each one who hears them say, “Come.” Let the thirsty ones Let them come and drink the water of life without charge.” Revelation 22:17come- anyone who wants to.
Thirsty?
Come!
No
matter who you are, no matter how long you have or have not been a Christian-
God wants to change your life!
I believe he said, “Life and Life more abundantly.”
I
believe if life falls short of “abundantly”….
It’s
time to break ranks.
Just
as people cannot break free from the bondage that holds them, people cannot
break ranks unless they turn to Jesus, repent, let go and start letting
God/Jesus teach you to live in the understanding/will of the Spirit of God.
Let
this be a refreshing living word for us
Romans 12:2 says “Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will know what God wants you to do, and you will know how good and pleasing and perfect his will really is.”
I
think we can get into this rut or believe some lie that holds us back and from
breaking rank where we truly experience what God wants for us.
To
truly live as God intends us to live we must “let” be reliant on Him in all
things. I mean how much of the
burden do you carry? Are you “yoked” with God or not?
Our
LORD and Savior Jesus Christ lived in this way of thinking… and because He did,
He continually broke ranks with the ways of men. Think about it. He
crossed lines that men set. He went against the grain of society
norms. Men hated and resented Him and do to this day because of who He IS
-not truly understanding He is God- not us.
He
even breaks ranks in the people He chooses to represent Him expecting us to
break ranks as well and live by His example- in only being captive in Spirit
(Him/God), not to ways of men.
When
we start to believe we are contained by “something” other then God what
happens? I can tell you it’s pretty lousy.
But
what happens to our cup when we allow God to stir and fill it up?
Psalm 23:5-6 says…
“You prepare a feast for me in the presence of my enemies. You welcome me as a guest, anointing my head with oil. My cup overflows with blessings. Surely your goodness and unfailing love will pursue me all the days of my life and I will live in the house of the LORD forever.”
And Proverbs 21:1 says…
“The king’s heart is like a stream of water directed by the LORD; he turns it wherever he pleases.”
Think about it....
