My River flows for you my children and not by any works of your hands but it is by my Grace , if nothing else was done by you " Behold I AM complete in my sacrifice for all " ,therefore die to self and just allow Me to be your first fruit in and through all for I AM your very breath and spirit !
Now just abide in Me " The Vine" and allow Me to love on you where you are right now by just releasing your yoke of works to Me for I AM your Glory that you seek " Behold" I AM here , What else is there for you to do but to just abide in me ?!
John 17:20-25
20 I am not praying for these alone but also for the future believers who will come to me because of the testimony of these. 21 My prayer for all of them is that they will be of one heart and mind, just as you and I are, Fatherthat just as you are in me and I am in you, so they will be in us, and the world will believe you sent me.
22 I have given them the glory you gave methe glorious unity of being one, as we are 23 I in them and you in me, all being perfected into oneso that the world will know you sent me and will understand that you love them as much as you love me. 24 Father, I want them with methese youve given meso that they can see my glory. You gave me the glory because you loved me before the world began!
25 O righteous Father, the world doesnt know you, but I do; and these disciples know you sent me.
That is the Gospel. Professional Christians with the mortgaged buildings can’t stand it - can they?
The winds of grace are always blowing. It’s up to me to raise my spinnaker.
true surrender is costly huh ! watch to the video it brings in God’s presence thick
amen ! all of us \o/
It is true, there is not a breath we take nor a good we do that is not by God through unmitigated grace. If we were to receive what we deserve we would drop into hell and burn forever. May The LORD be magnified!
amen
Great stuff Jedediah
The river of life flows from grace not works.
True,
Would you also say once converted, there is an expectation of work?
I try to disappear and just let The Father’s will flow through me as I do my best to stay in deep worship,praise,thanksgiving and The Word of God. It keeps me intimate . I usually mix charity driven purely by the Holy Spirit to Bring God joy. The joy of The Lord is my strength. I love the verse in Him we live and move and breathe and have our being !
