Growth Many times I find myself experiencing a great desire and wishing I could take what I know about God and the devil and just implant that knowledge into others. I KNOW Jesus often felt the same way but we must stick with the choice plan and process that produces learning and growth IN righteousness! That said prayerfully I can give you some facts that will cause more and swifter growth. God wants us to do the right job the right way and for the right reasons then keep on doing everything this way no matter what other people might do so that we can EXPERIENCE the freedom it gives us. When others say all manner of evil against us we still have a deep peace and spiritual freedom even though we might feel sad or angry because some people are going to believe the lies. We KNOW the devil is real and evil is his tool of warfare so the lies we suffer are for the sake of Jesus. We also KNOW people must be tested and sifted in order to have the STRONG STAND in THE DAY OF THE LORD! We also KNOW how clever and sly the devil is and that makes it easier to forgive others when they error and forgive ourself when we error. We learn more about how to pray helpful prayers for others and how to pray prayers of SELF EXAMINATION for growth in OUR LIFE. There is now no condemnation applies to others in our life and to us as we serve The Lord and grow IN HIM with HIS SPIRIT, THE HOLY SPIRIT, AND THE AGAPE SPIRIT OF OUR HEAVENLY FATHER growing in us. We WILL make mistakes from time to time because the Eternal Person of God is a Spirit and Soul that lives in a body of flesh that is directed by what was a carnal mind with flesh and mind now being made new. The flesh and carnal mind were and are enmity against God which is to say a hateful enemy of God. As we grow and wait for a new body we must fight against what feels good to the flesh and what sounds good to the carnal mind! To do this we must be honest with ourself and face our weaknesses then pray hard and long until we get knowledge and understanding from our Heavenly Father then we proceeded forward one step at a time as The Father gives us discernment to do and say what HE gives us to do and say. You cannot be sure it is not just you if you are not honest with yourself. Start working out YOUR salvation with fear and trembling which is to say knowing God KNOWS the TRUTH about YOU and the situation. You can lie to yourself and others but you will NEVER fool God! Next you must realize but not fear how clever and sly our enemy is. Third, if you are still not sure seek wise counsel. If everyone has done their best and a mistake is made do your best to make things right and set them straight then forgive others and yourself. IF you still feel anger and you find yourself angry at God; remind yourself that HE is NEVER wrong and NEVER makes a mistake! HE IS perfect LOVE that never fails. TRUST that and start looking for more lessons God wants you to learn. GROW GROW GROW :-)
