To
prove what is the right way:.Romans
12:2 "And be not
conformed to this world, but be you transformed by the renewing
of your mind that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect
will of God.".(note
that it is a changed mind that is able to comprehend
the truth of what's good; and what
does an unchanged mind look like?)
The mind has to be transformed
by the Infinite One we refer to as the Creator or God, which occurs
after one makes a decision to change to be
like the Creator in wholeness, purity, etc., albeit because Creator
was working with you in the first place, or you wouldn't be at all interested
in seeking spiritual
answers to physical problems. Then
one comes to know Creator's will in His life.
Most men and women do what
they feel is right. Some though, do what they know to be wrong, such as
the
Pharisees and Sadducees in the time of Emmanuel life on Earth. In this
is a step of opening to the
dark side.
1John
5:14,15 "And this is the confidence that we have in Him, that, if we
ask
anything according to His
will, he hears us. And if we know that He hears us,.whatsoever
we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of Him."
So we need to know what Creator's
will is in order to be sure of an answer? Things occur in the interaction
between the Creator and Christians through belief in Emmanuel the Christ.
Why?
What's the Creator's will?
To know God's will, one must know that
he
is filled with the knowledge of His will:.Colossians
1:9,10 "For this cause we also since the day we heard it do not cease
to pray for you and to desire that you might be filled with the knowledge
of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; that you might
walk worthy of the Lord.(or,
this
is how one walks worthy of the
Lord).unto
all pleasing being fruitful in every good work and increasing
in the knowledge of God."
And know
this about love.
Things
from the invisible Creator's realm come by believing. The convincing
follows belief. Believing is the decision. We usually have it backwards.
We need convincing to believe. But that's not walking in faith like Emmanuel
did:.1John
2:6 "He that says he abides in him.ought
himself also so.to
walk, even as he walked."
1Thessalonians
4:1 "Furthermore then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort.(instruct).you
by the Lord Emmanuel, that you have received of us how you ought to walk
and to please God, so you would abound
more and more." Hebrews 11:6 "But
without faith it is impossible to please him.
For he that comes to God
must believe that he is and that he is a rewarder
of them that diligently seek him."
Well, what are you asking
for:.Health?
Wealth?
Love.(a
right mate), a
Resurrection of someone you love?; Relief
from troubles.(still
got old troubles?, then you're not asking).Freedom
from fears? Expression.(an
exciting purpose here)?
Protection?
All
your wants that are good are always
provided for those on their spiritual path, those who know how to use
the
gift God has provided.
Creator's will is for us
to be resurrected from the dead:.Colossians
3:3 "For you are dead and your life is hid with Christ in God.
In
Christ you are as good as dead. Christ took away all the bad things
from you, so there's no reason for you to ever again be sad, despondent,
resentful, guilty and think
negative about the experiences in your life. Can a dead physical body
think? Nope! So, think now of the wonderful future that's available for
you. That will help you to leave you limitations behind. And this
will leave them even further behind you.
John
6:40 "And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which
sees
the Son and believes on him may
have everlasting life and I will raise
him up at the
last day.".But
there is something
before that which a person can be resurrected to.
Creator's will is also to
give us physically what we ask for – if we can handle it:.James
4:3 "You ask and receive not, because you ask amiss.(original
Greek implies: 'you ask, but don't receive, because that you ask in order
to ingratiate
your selfish pleasures'), that you
may consume it upon your lusts."
John
10:10 "The thief comes not, but
for to steal and to kill and to destroy. I am come that they might have
life and that they might have it more abundantly."
We say: "Where is it? I've
been asking for years and what have I got?" Well, if we are to believe
God; He says it's as good as done when we ask:.Matthew
6:8; 1John 5:15. It's just that
our
time frame may not be what's best in the long run. How to measure
yourself up, so you are living the incorruptibility
you have in Christ.
In olden times, as recorded
in the Old Testament part of the Bible, God's heart ached to provide
good for men and women, for them who wanted nothing from and nothing even
to do with God: Jeremiah 44:16,17,
20-23.
But perhaps we have.unknowingly.been
off track in trying to please the Creator. Anyone thinking this
way does not overstand
belief.
As far as the Creator's concerned,
what you asked for is yours and is sure to come IF you believe.
And belief is easy! It's simply accepting what the Creator has said as
being true. But, believe
what?
All of the answers to your
prayers
will come, in the great life that will carry on for you into
eternity, but so will answers also come in this life! To God, once
you are Christian, you are an eternal
being with him. Once you are in love, you are in
eternity.
Many Christians need to more
clearly see this, oh so quickly passing physical life, in perspective.
The real joy begins in the next step here.
