Do Not Ask Until You Question All You Know.......

We have discussed our not asking, due to differed hope.  We have also discussed not having hope due to faith in our fear - We are now entering the Honestly Series.  This is taking what we know and seeing if we believe "It is So".  (If you have the information  - If it is So...So it IS - you might want to go over it again).


Since "asking" is pivotal to receiving and the cornerstone of our merger into Unity.  It is apropos that we begin here.  To ask is a process and tomorrow we will go into that.  For today, let's just build the brick road =D.

You know why I think the spirit has to intercede for us? Because if we received only what we asked for we would be destroying ourselves due to not fully understanding. Hosea chapter 4 God tells us that His people perish due to lack of knowledge.

We don’t understand what we are REALLY asking for…….then forget to thank God for not giving it to us till we understand. That requires maturity through seeking truth. Don’t perish….ask your questions! Thank God that he allowed Christ to die so that the spirit could rise up in us. That "one life" multiplied a thousand fold. He would like to do that in each of us too – but we have to believe it, seek it ……and THEN ask because we know it will show up. He is faithful, I pray that our faith not fail HIM.

In James 4 we are told that we do not have because we do not ask. We are warned that when we do not receive then we are to discern our intent (love angle). In Hebrews 10 we are encouraged to live by faith, then warned if we shrink back His soul (his very breath of life) will have no pleasure in us.  Of course his spirit would not have pleasure it is grieving because we have no hope – we have chosen to make the power opposing the holy spirit operative in our life, ultimately saying “be unplugged and sit here and watch as I get pummeled and run all around squandering "the moment that be" like a chicken with my head cut off”.

Think about these points today and write a bit. Be ready to share some of your thoughts….Friday is on the way!

Be ready to give a reason for your hope – that will be what you believe will show up. What do you believe will show up if you were to ask ?
The answer to your question will be what you are holding in your mind and heart. When you speak of fears this is what you expect to show up. It is hard to face, but true. Literally, it is hard to face – this is the reason we shrink back from it. I believe this is what God meant when he stated – My righteous one will stand in faith and if he shrinks back my soul will have no pleasure in him

In Habakkuk God promised that He will show up, and he will! Remember when we discussed Truth and His promises – “If it is So, so it will be” and the second part of that was “whether spoken or unspoken” remember how we discussed God has already spoke; the variable is if we will leave it unsaid – or not be there when he does come.

Don’t be deceived  He will be there! But I must ask.....will you ???
WE are supposed to be asking for His kingdom to come every day. Are you doing that – I am. And every day – I hope it will be there when I look for it on the horizon. Yesterday wasn’t the day……maybe it will be today! “But if not” I know we are one day closer and that is a wonderful, beautiful, exciting thing to my heart, mind and soul.
I pray that we all in one voice cry out to Him - Come Lord Jesus....Come; TODAY!
Kisses,
Candace
