Only the Holy Spirit of Truth and Grace can keep you in the right(eous) place, mindset and heart condition that you need to be in. It’s not according to your will or opinion, but to the standard of God’s infallible Word. Grace will show you areas you may have deviated from the Truth and have been overriding the instructions of the Holy Spirit. As you meditate on God’s Word, His Grace will bring you back in alignment and set you right if only you allow. If you find that you’ve been off course, then you’ve just been OFF COURSE! Don’t lie and pretend to be ON when you’re not. That’s not faith but foolishness. God can’t bless who you pretend to be, only who He’s called you to actually B in word and deed. It’s His Grace and Truth that puts and keeps you ON!
“But the [Holy] Spirit distinctly and expressly declares that in latter times some will turn away from the faith, giving attention to deluding and seducing spirits and doctrines that demons teach, Through the hypocrisy and pretensions of liars whose consciences are seared (cauterized),… Practice and cultivate and meditate upon these duties; throw yourself wholly into them [as your ministry], so that your progress may be evident to everybody. Look well to yourself [to your own personality] and to [your] teaching; persevere in these things [hold to them], for by so doing you will save both yourself and those who hear you.” (1 Timothy 4:1-2, 15-16 AMP)
“He refreshes and restores my life (my self); He leads me in the paths of righteousness [uprightness and right standing with Him—not for my earning it, but] for His name’s sake.” (Psalm 23:3 AMP)
It would be a very hurtful thing to be taken out of stewardship of the wonderful opportunities God has lavished your future with. Even more shameful to lose the personal contract of the covenant promises of The BEST because of your own unwillingness to CHANGE and UPGRADE (all of which He’s already supplied to you). Contrary to popular belief, God DOES have conditions that must be met and that are not automatic. There’s no special privileges of entitlement in the spirit that exempt you from doing your part. Grace can’t be misused to opt you out of that but yet is given to empower you to do right by your responsibilities. Take God’s words seriously. Apply their healing balm of Truth to your heart to restore those calloused areas and rejuvenate the seared areas of your conscience. Love rightness, justice and Truth as a true son/daughter of God. Submit to His Wisdom, Knowledge and Understanding in every area ABOVE ALL…. LIVE THE BEST LIFE IMAGINABLE! Your successful results, passions fulfilled and promises kept all live there in that place. May you enjoy a beautiful day and make every moment special! I love you,
LaMecca I’omni Grace*
