Where Christ is There is Liberty

I praise God that His words are faithful and true.  I praise God that He had a plan to bring all things to the focus of Christ - that He is the word, God's word in the flesh.  I thank Him that His word is alive, living right here within us and eternal.  I thank Him that He discloses all things to us so that we can comprehend that it is His word living out moment by moment within us and around us as we converse with ourselves and others that determines the position and countenance of physical and spiritual lives.

I believe what He says, I trust what He promises and I will stand on it - what about you?

In 2 Corinthians 10:4 (NIV) God states "The weapons we fight with are not weapons of this world.  On the contrary they have divine power to demolish strongholds."

How can we read that and not grab hold of the liberty with hope and joy - the only way is if we don't believe it.  OUCH!  So I am leaving off with The Message translation of 2 Corinthians 10: 3-6.  I pray for us all, we need to do that all day long.  We are one body - every part of us effects the whole whether we know the entire body or not.  Let's grow to see that, let's embrace what God knows.  Let's be mature in Christ so that He can receive in full what He suffered so much to obtain.  He already paid for it, we are just slow to allow Him to have it in His possession fully.

God bless each and every one of you - in Love,
Candace

3-6The world is unprincipled. It's dog-eat-dog out there! The world doesn't fight fair. But we don't live or fight our battles that way—never have and never will. The tools of our trade aren't for marketing or manipulation, but they are for demolishing that entire massively corrupt culture. We use our powerful God-tools for smashing warped philosophies, tearing down barriers erected against the truth of God, fitting every loose thought and emotion and impulse into the structure of life shaped by Christ. Our tools are ready at hand for clearing the ground of every obstruction and building lives of obedience into maturity.
