The Honored Gift

Satan’s plan is to stop the Church from rising in fullness of Power. His position is to weaken the church down and hinder the move of Power of God through counter attacks of doubt, fear, and unbelief of division. Fruit has meaning significant reasons. (1) It can mean an outcome to a product given to a Christian. (2) A fruit on a tree takes time to grow and mature cultivation. (3) Dependable trust need for attributes to live in accord with the Holy Spirit. Bearing fruit describe through thoughts, words, or deeds. To obtain eternal life a soul must prove it has repented of sin by bearing the fruit of the Holy Spirit. The Word says, “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,* v23 Meekness, temperance, against such there is no law.* v24 And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.* v25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit” ( Galatians 5:22-25KJV). In contrast the works of flesh is contrary to walking in the Spirit. Our conversations, every believer crucify the flesh needed to obtain salvation. Our grievous sensitive wounds are downfall to negative behavior to off course our journey of life. Setting broken pieces of heart, and broken bones takes much love applied to wipe tears dry. The Word says, “For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him. Herein thou hast done foolishly: therefore from henceforth thou shall have wars” (2 Chronicles 16:9 KJV) The prescription to ruin is forgiveness through the love of our Savior. Reconciling indifferences can bring “Good Tidings” to the heart to reach out to the lost without hope end. The Word says, “For God so loved the world,that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life” (John 3:16KJV). Love is an attribute of God and divine being is his presence. Actually, contrast is the two different distinction of His love unconditional to our conditional love. Barriers build walls that cannot be proven to fall. However, the joy of the Lord is our strength to gain development throughout much long-suffering. Sometimes, a Christian struggles to grasp joy, because it defines virtue. Given a biblical view of joy can be found in scripture. “Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.* v4 Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.* v5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.* v6 Blessed are they that which do hunger and thirst for righteousness: for they shall be filled.* v7 Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.* v8 Blessed are the pure in heart: they shall see God.* v9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called children of God.* v10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness’ sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.* v11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.* v12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you” (Matthew 5:3-12KJV). The peace of God comes from maintaining love surrendered of our Savior to commit his life for his children. The bond of commitment of love brings an enjoyment of loyalty for servanthood. When a Christian surrenders to life of sacrifice, peacefulness quiets their Soul, to listen attentively to the small “Still Voice of God” to follow. The peace of God borders the limits for the Holy Spirit leading to comfort through any storm. The Word says, “Thou wilt keep in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee” (Isaiah 26:3KJV). This peace goes beyond human comprehensive. This is empathic expression that indicates staying our minds upon the Commandments of God with act of meditation rewards that certain confidence needed to climb to higher level. Our minds have to bestow particular appropriate place to keep peace. And, follow the “Giver of Eternal Life” Christ Jesus our Lord. Additional scripture says, “And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus” (Philippians4:7KJV). The peace of God is a tranquility freeing a believer from fear, and worrying vexation. That peace “guards” the soul, mind, will, and emotions to understanding of the destiny problem to moving forward. A Christian has to stand guard duty to surrender as the gates of entry are open to enter beyond one’s understanding. You must occupy your mind on the right things according to the Will of the Father. Finally, keep in peace with your fellowman. The Word says, “Endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. v4There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling.* v5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism, v6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all” (Ephesians 4:3-6KJV).Oneness of the “Unity of the Spirit” only comes through the peace of God to serve the great commission. The Word says, “Afterwards he appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat, and upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed not them which had seen him after he was risen. v15And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. v16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved, but he that believeth not shall be damned.* v17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; v18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick; and they shall recover. v19 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up to the heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.v20 and they went forth, and preached every where , the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following” Amen. (Mark 16:14-20 KJV)
