CHRIST PURPOSE WAS TO CREATE IN HIMSELF ONE NEW MAN OUT OF THE TWO, THUS MAKING PEACE, AND IN THIS ONE BODY TO RECONCILE BOTH OF TO GOD THROUGH THE CROSS!

 DEAR FRIENDS, LET US LOVE ONE ANOTHER, FOR LOVE COMES FROM GOD. EVERYONE WHO LOVES HAS BEEN BORN OF GOD AND KNOWS GOD. (1 John 4:7)

WE ARE GOD'S HANDS AND FEET IN THE WORLD, GOD WANTS US TO CARE ABOUT PEOPLE BECAUSE GOD CARES ABOUT PEOPLE. GOD WANTS ALL HIS PEOPLE TO KNOW GOD'S JOY AND GOD'S PEACE AND GOD'S LOVE. GOD WANTS TO RESTORE GOODNESS FOR ALL CREATION. DON'T LET ANYTHING COME BEFORE GOD.

TODAY WE ARE SO DIVIDED BECAUSE OUR ENEMY THE DEVIL HAS  BLINDED US FROM THE TRUTH THAT THE DEVIL IS THE SOURCE OF ALL EVIL. SO WHEN EVIL HAPPENS IN THE WORLD REMEMBER EVIL BELONGS TO THE DEVIL, NOT TO BLAME EACH OTHER FOR WHAT THE DEVIL IS CAUSING TO HAPPEN. WE MUST HOLD EACH OTHER ACCOUNTABLE FOR OUR OWN ACTIONS.

BUT I TELL YOU: LOVE YOUR ENEMIES AND PRAY FOR THOSE WHO PERSECUTE YOU, THAT YOU MAY BE SONS OF YOUR FATHER IN HEAVEN. GOD CAUSES HIS SUN TO RISE ON THE EVIL AND THE GOOD, AND SENDS RAIN ON THE RIGHTEOUS AND THE UNRIGHTEOUS. (Matthew 5:44-45)

THE WORD OF GOD HAS POWER OVER THE DEVIL. WHEN JESUS WAS TEMPTED BY THE DEVIL; JESUS ANSWERED "IT IS WRITTEN" THEN QUOTED THE WORD OF GOD. THE WRITTEN WORD HAS THE POWER TO DEFEAT THE DEVIL AND ALL HIS EVIL FORCES. I INVOKE THE WORD OF GOD IN THE WORLD TODAY BY SPEAKING THE WORD OUT OF MY MOUTH INTO MY HEART, BACK IN MY MOUTH INTO MY HEART. THIS IS A DIVINE CYCLE THAT POWERS GOD'S WORD.

CAN I GET AN AMEN FROM ALL WHO CALL ON GOD. AMEN!

THE DEVIL IS OUR ENEMY, THE DEVIL WANTS TO STEAL OUR JOY IN JESUS, KILL OUR HOPE IN JESUS, AND TO DESTROY OUR FAITH IN JESUS.  WE ARE CHILDREN OF GOD, AND GOD WILL USE US TO CHANGE THE WORLD. ALL WE KNOW IS JESUS CHRIST AND CHRIST CRUCIFIED, JESUS DIED ON THE CROSS FOR OUR SINS AND THROUGH JESUS CHRIST WE HAVE A RECONCILED RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD "NOW" THIS PRESENT MOMENT.

THERE IS ONLY ONE GOD, AND THE ESSENCE OF THE ONE GOD IS, GOD IS ALL POWERFUL, GOD IS ALL KNOWING, GOD IS EVERYWHERE AT ONCE. GOD REVEALS HIMSELF TO US IN THE SCRIPTURES AS THE ALL POWERFUL FATHER GOD, THE ALL KNOWING JESUS GOD, AND THE PRESENT EVERYWHERE AT ONCE HOLY SPIRIT GOD. I GO TO GOD EVERYDAY FOR SPIRITUAL PROCESSING THROUGH THE ESSENCE OF PRAYER.

GOD WE ASK AND WE PRAY CREATE IN US A PURE HEART O GOD AND RENEW A STEADFAST SPIRIT WITHIN US. GOD WE ASK AND WE PRAY DO NOT CAST US FROM YOUR PRESCENCE OR TAKE YOUR HOLY SPIRIT FROM US. GOD WE ASK AND WE PRAY RESTORE TO US THE JOY OF YOUR SPIRITUAL SALVATION AND GRANT US A WILLING SPIRIT TO SUSTAIN US. THEN GOD WE WILL TEACH TRANSGRESSOR YOUR WAYS AND SINNERS WILL TURN BACK TO YOU. (Psalms 51:10-13)

GOD WE ARE BELIEVING CONTINUALLY IN JESUS WORDS, AND GOD WE BIND THE POWER OF THE DEVIL AND GOD WE RELEASE YOUR POWER IN THE EARTH. BECAUSE GOD YOU ARE WORKING IN US AND THROUGH US EVERYDAY!

SO I SAY GOD YOU ARE THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERS AND GOD THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERS TO US IS OUR SPIRITUAL RELATIONSHIP WITH YOU! AMEN.

I DEMONSTRATE MY LOVE FOR GOD BY PRAYING GOD'S LOVING WORDS TO HIM. THIS IS THE TRUTH I STAND UNDER. GOD'S LOVE FOR ME IS GOD'S WORDS TO ME! AND I RENEW THAT LOVE DAILY!

"THIS IS THE COVENANT I WILL MAKE WITH THEM AFTER THAT TIME, SAYS THE LORD. I WILL PUT MY LAWS IN THEIR HEARTS, AND I WILL WRITE THEM ON THEIR MINDS." THEN GOD ADDS: "THEIR SINS AND LAWLESS ACTS I WILL REMEMBER NO MORE."(Hebrews 10:16-17)

WE HAVE NO GOOD APART FROM GOD. THAT MAKES JESUS' CALL TO FOLLOW HIM AN INVITATION TO FREEDOM. THIS IS FREEDOM TO REVEL IN THE SPIRIT'S FRUIT: LOVE, JOY, PEACE, AND PATIENCE. THIS IS FREEDOM TO NOT BE IMPRISONED BY ANYTHING THAT WOULD KEEP US FROM THE FULLNESS OF THE LIFE GOD HAS GIVEN US. THIS IS THE PATH OF LIFE.

TODAY I HAVE A COVENANT WITH GOD, GOD HAS PUT HIS LAWS IN MY HEART AND GOD HAS WROTE THEM ON MY MIND. MY COVENANT WITH GOD IS MY PERSONAL PATHWAY TO GOD. BY SPEAKING THE WORDS OF THIS COVENANT OUT OF MY MOUTH BACK INTO MY HEART IT STRENGTHEN MY FAITH.

AS WE JOURNEY THROUGH THE LENTEN SEASON LET US NOT LOSE FOCUS ON THE PRIZE - THE PRIZE IS RIGHTEOUSNESS! AND LET US NOT FORGET THE REASON FOR THE SEASON.

GOD WE ACCEPT YOUR PLAN FOR OUR SPIRITUAL SALVATION, THAT YOU SENT YOUR SON JESUS CHRIST TO DIE FOR OUR SINS AND THROUGH YOUR SON JESUS CHRIST WE HAVE A RECONCILED RELATIONSHIP WITH YOU GOD "NOW" THIS PRESENT MOMENT. THIS IS THE REASON FOR THE SEASON!

BUT "NOW" IN CHRIST JESUS YOU WHO ONCE WERE FAR AWAY HAVE BEEN BROUGHT NEAR THROUGH THE BLOOD OF CHRIST. FOR CHRIST HIMSELF IS OUR PEACE, WHO HAS MADE THE TWO ONE AND HAS DESTROYED THE BARRIER, THE DIVIDING WALL OF HOSTILITY, BY ABOLISHING IN CHRIST FLESH THE LAW WITH ITS COMMANDMENTS AND REGULATIONS. 

CHRIST PURPOSE WAS TO CREATE IN HIMSELF ONE NEW MAN OUT OF THE TWO, THUS MAKING PEACE, AND IN THIS ONE BODY TO RECONCILE BOTH OF TO GOD THROUGH THE CROSS, BY WHICH CHRIST PUT TO DEATH THEIR HOSTILITY. CHRIST CAME AND PREACHES PEACE TO YOU WHO WERE FAR AWAY AND PEACE TO THOSE WHO WERE NEAR. FOR THROUGH CHRIST WE BOTH HAVE ACCESS TO THE FATHER BY ONE SPIRIT.

CONSEQUENTLY, YOU ARE NO LONGER FOREIGNERS AND ALIENS, BUT FELLOW CITZENS WITH GOD'S PEOPLE AND MEMBERS OF GOD'S HOUSEHOLD, BUILT ON THE FOUNDATION OF THE APOSTLES AND PROPHETS, WITH CHRIST JESUS HIMSELF AS THE CHIEF CORNERSTONE. IN CHRIST THE WHOLE BUILDING IS JOINED TOGETHER AND RISES TO BECOME A HOLY TEMPLE IN THE LORD. AND IN CHRIST YOU TOO ARE BEING BUILT TOGETHER TO BECOME A DWELLING IN WHICH GOD LIVES BY HIS SPIRIT. (Eph.2:13-22)

CHRIST IS THE IMAGE OF THE INVISIBLE GOD, THE FIRSTBORN OVER CREATION. FOR BY CHRIST ALL THINGS WERE CREATED: THINGS IN HEAVEN AND ON EARTH, VISIBLE AND INVISIBLE, WHETHER THRONES OR POWERS OR RULERS OR AUTHORITIES; ALL THINGS WERE CREATED BY CHRIST AND FOR CHRIST. CHRIST IS BEFORE ALL THINGS, AND IN CHRIST ALL THINGS HOLD TOGETHER.

AND CHRIST IS THE HEAD OF THE BODY, THE CHURCH; CHRIST IS THE BEGINNING AND THE FIRSTBORN FROM AMONG THE DEAD, SO THAT IN EVERYTHING CHRIST MIGHT HAVE SUPERMACY. FOR GOD WAS PLEASED TO HAVE ALL GOD'S FULLNESS DWELL IN CHRIST, AND THROUGH CHRIST TO RECONCILE TO HIMSELF ALL THINGS IN HEAVEN, BY MAKING PEACE THROUGH CHRIST BLOOD, SHED ON THE CROSS. (Col.1:15-20)

AS YOU COME TO CHRIST, THE LIVING STONE - REJECTED BY MEN BUT CHOSEN BY GOD AND PRECIOUS TO GOD - YOU ALSO, LIKE LIVING STONES, ARE BEING BUILT INTO A SPIRITUAL HOUSE TO BE A HOLY PRIESTHOOD, OFFERING SPIRITUAL SACRIFICES ACCEPTABLE TO GOD THROUGH JESUS CHRIST.

FOR IN SCRIPTURE IT SAYS: "SEE, I LAY A STONE IN ZION, A CHOSEN AND PRECIOUS CORNERSTONE, AND THE ONE WHO TRUST IN CHRIST WILL NEVER BE PUT TO SHAME." (1 Peter2:4-6)

CHRIST WAS CHOSEN BEFORE THE CREATION OF THE WORLD, BUT WAS REVEALED IN THESE LAST TIMES FOR YOUR SAKE. THROUGH CHRIST YOU BELIEVE IN GOD, WHO RAISED CHRIST FROM THE DEAD AND GLORIFIED CHRIST, AND SO YOUR FAITH AND HOPE ARE IN GOD. (1 Peter 1:20-21)

I AM CHRIST LIKE AND I HAVE BEEN CALLED BY GOD , AND I AM THE FIRSTBORN OF MANY BROTHERS AND I AM A CHILD OF GOD, AND I WORSHIP GOD IN SPIRIT AND TRUTH!

"YET A TIME IS COMING AND HAS "NOW" COME WHEN TRUE WORSHIPERS WILL WORSHIP THE FATHER IN SPIRIT  AND TRUTH, FOR THEY ARE THE KIND OF WORSHIPERS THE FATHER SEEKS. GOD IS SPIRIT, AND GOD WORSHIPERS MUST WORSHIP IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH." (John 4:23-24)
