www.sufferwell.org“Spend your time and energy in the exercise of keeping spiritually fit. In other words, train yourself until what comes naturally to you expresses itself as reverence for the Almighty and all He calls sacred or worthy of veneration. This is what it means to truly seek of the heart of Yahweh (1 Timothy 4:7).”
Oh how much joy it brings Me, My plans being fulfilled. I always get what I want and what I want is always good (Romans 8:28). It is glory for Me and mercy and grace for you. I have a plan; it is a deliberate pattern. It is seen in the word, through My Son. It is also written in the word, through My Torah. I will sum it up; I know it will help you.
The stricter your obedience, the more distinct My voice becomes! The more effort you put into knowing Me, the more I reveal Myself. “Blessed are your eyes for they see, and your ears for they hear.” (Matthew 13:16) The more you give Me your heart (mind), the more I mold it to increase its capacity to love. “Draw near to the Mighty One and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded.” (James 4:8)
I know you understand; it is My Spirit in you that I Am speaking to (Romans 8:9). My words are true and they will inspire your effort! Your reward: an everlasting conscience that is free of sin.
How much more shall the blood of the Messiah, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to the Almighty, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living Mighty One? (Hebrews 9:14)
