THE INNER CIRCLE

-
1Peter 4:17
For the time has come for judgment to begin at the house of God; and if it begins with us first, what will be the end of those who do not obey the gospel of God?

Romans 8:1
 There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.

John 1:12
 But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name:

When you receive the good news of salvation and accept the life in Christ you become part of the family, Jesus  calls us friends.

It is ignorant to believe that we would be treated like outsiders, that we would be judged like those who are not saved.

The truth is " it is a family issue".

Even the enemy knows this.

The relationship between those who have received Christ, and the Father, is truely that of father and son.

David gives us an illustration of this, so also Abraham and Moses people who lived as friends of God. They were previleged to be in the "inner circle".

Psalm 91:1
 He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

Does it mean that those who are in the inner circle are not accountable, that they can live anyhow?

NO!

The sons have more dignity than the slaves. They are nobles, they are royalty.

1Peter 2:9
But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light;

We do not live that way because we are afraid of hell, no, that is our upbringing that is the Spirit we carry.

John 1:13
 who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

1John 5:4
 For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world--our faith.

1John 5:18
 We know that whoever is born of God does not sin; but he who has been born of God keeps himself, and the wicked one does not touch him.

1John 3:9
Whoever has been born of God does not sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God.

The consciousness of sin is actually that which makes one live in sin. A desire to fight to live a life of holiness.

 When we came to Christ "WE DEPARTED FROM SIN". We killed the mortal flesh and live by the Spirit.

Romans 8:1
 There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.

2Timothy 2:19
 Nevertheless the solid foundation of God stands, having this seal: "The Lord knows those who are His," and, "Let everyone who names the name of Christ depart from iniquity."

Are you part of the inner circle (the family)

Then

* think like one
* speak like one
* act like one
* pray like one
* worship like one
* work like one
* evangelize like one
* love like one

Romans 8:19
 For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.

It is foolishness for a man saved to live in fear, no, we do not live in fear because our heart do not condemn us. We talk with God everyday, He lives in us, we would account to Him. So, why the fear? We are not strangers to Him!

Romans 8:33
Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? [It is] God that justifieth.

Romans 8:15
 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.

I see a generation of those who understand that they are in the inner circle. Thus, live the life.

ARE YOU STILL OUTSIDE!

Please come in, the door of the ark is still open. DO NOT DELAY!

God bless you.

Love

DO YOU STILL SEE?

-
Habakkuk 2:3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time; but at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, it will not tarry. It may have been easy when we first believed, to visualize the promises. We reach out with zeal, loving God, seeking to do exploits. That was when we first believed, just as Jesus said: John 3:3 Jesus answered and said to him, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." When we become born again we see God's kingdom, our spirit man is reborn and we count the flesh as nothing. Then time passes by, we are in the world, all its distractions, temptations, responsibilities, challenges and so on begin to reveal themselves. The question then is: * Can we still see heaven? John 3:3 * Are we still zealous? John 2:17 * Are we continuing in those things? Acts 2:42 * Are we walking in love? 1John 4:7 or Has the cares and worries of life and service ta

DO UNTO OTHERS . . .

-
Matthew 7:12 "Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets. It is hypocritical of us to expect people to stand with us when we are experiencing challenges yet when we see others face their own challenges, we begin to imagine what they must have done wrong or maybe they annoyed God or did one evil or the other instead of reaching out to help as we would desire others to do for us. The same thing goes for prosperity, when the Lord opens a door for us and we have abundance of wealth or a breakthrough we expect others to rejoice with us, more so, some would even find it hard to give to others. What is our reaction when someone else gets this breakthrough, do we get suddenly suspicious without reason. Do we expect the person to reach out to us? It is better to stay on the side of encouragement than to sit as a judge or prosecutor. Jesus said, Matthew 7:2 "For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the same

MY YEAR OF FULFILMENT

-
Psalms 57:2 I cry out to God Most High, to God who will fulfill his purpose for me. We just finished the book of 1Samuel, in this book we see the cry of Israel for a king and how God raised Saul to rule them. We also saw how Saul disobeyed God and lost kingship for himself and his generation. He did not stop there, he went on to seek for the death of David, whom he saw as the next heir of the throne. In chapter 31, the last chapter, we see how Saul and all his sons and men were killed, it was tragic, however it was as a sign of relief for David. We could go on counting all the struggles and difficulties we faced in the past year. No, we should not, we should begin to look at all the positives, remembering all the good things God has done for us. If He promised it, He will do it and that is what we hold onto as we go through this year. Hebrews 10:23 Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise. This is the year of fulfilment, and
