The need for…NEED!

Posted: November 12, 2011 in Uncategorized

All of our need is directly related to the potential for a wonderful intimate relationship with our loving Father!  He allowed that need, whatever it is, not for us to continue striving, in trying to find a solution, but for the catalyst He uses to draw us to himself and simply present ourselves (yield) to His wonder working Grace!  The same Grace of God who has appeared to us, and is NOW working IN and through us! (Romans 12:1-2)

He will supply ALL of our needs according to His riches IN Christ! (Philippians 4:19)

And my friends, that is the key!  His riches IN Christ!

Do you still hold to a belief in a separated God?  Do you still see A God “up in heaven” or in the coming next event?  Do you still see the Word of God as being contained only in a book?

NO! The Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we beheld His Glory, the Glory of the only begotten Son, full of Grace and Truth!(John 1:14)

The Word IS Christ!  And it’s that WORD, the True and Living Word, He is the One who lives IN us by His Spirit, willing and working of His good pleasure! (Philippians 2:13)

“Now what I am commanding you today is NOT too difficult for you or beyond your reach.  It (He) is not up in heaven, so that you have to ask, “Who will ascend into heaven to get it (Him) and proclaim it (Him) to us so we may obey it(Him)?”  Nor is it (He) beyond the sea, so that you have to ask, “Who will cross the sea to get it (Him) and proclaim it (Him) to us so we may obey it (Him)?”  No, the (Living) Word is very near you; it (He) is IN your mouth and IN your heart so you may obey it (Him).”(Deuteronomy 30:11-14)

Or do you in this moment, NOW see this truth, which is who and whose you are IN Him?  It is of God you are IN Christ!  So the need you see is also IN Him!  And this is why we can count it ALL Joy!  Because it’s ALL IN Him, the need, the time spent waiting, and the answer!
