The faith you have, keep between yourself and God
– Roman 14:22
Jesus is my life, love, and the king of my heart. If anyone knows a bit about of my testimony, I was very lost and now I’m very found. It’s like my brain shut off and I found out my Heart is where I now live. Jesus took away and rescued me from myself.
Jesus lives in the Heart, and thats where I now live through the power of his Spirit,
That Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith that you, being rooted and grounded in love
– Ephesians 3:17
Last night I spend an hour weeping over the word “Faith”. Faith is word for trust, surrender, dependency, and loyalty. In Hebrew it means fully convinced, without expectation. I find if I’m not crying when I read the word, my Heart is not in the right place. My heart is broken for people to know the King of my Heart. I Cried and my spirit was crying to the Father “I don’t know what I’m doing Father, but I know you do”. The gospel of Jesus Christ is worth my whole life.
I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but he who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me
– Galatians 2:20
Jesus is my life and my Heart. My life is lived and saved by dear grace. A whole new world is available and my heart is for my King. I am not ashamed of what God is doing in my life and what is happening to me. I am in love with Jesus, and life is found in him. I know who I am, not because of my life. I live the one that I inherited from my Father through Jesus Christ. My life came to life when I let Jesus become the King of my Heart. My heart functions out of what he did, and living the reality of my Heart. Let me tell you all the good things stayed in my Heart and came to life. I still love Winston, crossfit, fire fighting, people, family, food but.. now I know how love and love what I do. I have a purpose for this life. These are the desires of my Heart, but the desire of my Heart will always be Jesus. It’s like the life came back into me, and I got a new life when Jesus came in. I love because I know how to! This is my life, this what happened, this is what Jesus did! I no longer live in a spinning world of hate, anger, malice, and feel like death. I live in my Heart and live like I should. I see clearly. I was blind, now I see! This is the surface level, there is more! I am living Gods will, not mine. God is a consuming fire,
For the weapons of our warfare are not against flesh and blood but have divine power to destroy strongholds. We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ, being ready to punish every disobedience, when your obedience is complete.
– 2 Corinthians 9: 4-6
How do you keep up with the spirit and on fire for Jesus. Keeping Jesus on and staying sober minded. Keep fanning the flame of life. Here is Gods Word and what he says. Take thoughts captive and guard your Heart. Live like Jesus and walk it out like him. Christianity is not a church it’s the people. The war is never against people. God is for you!
For we are God’s masterpiece. He created us a new in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good work he planned for us
– Ephesians 2:10
God wants all of you and you to remain in his love. He left the greater works for us. The Gospel is simple, keep pressing in. Jesus loves you. The greatest commandment is to,
Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.
– Matthew 22: 37
Life is not my own. I will never conform to this world, I will be transformed by the love of God. Jesus is with me wherever I go and transforms lives.
I could go on, I could go all day long. Jesus keeps his promises when he said
Jesus stood up and said,
If you believe in my, out of your belly shall flow rivers of living water
-John 7:38
