Tenaciously Standing On This Truth: "As Jesus Is, So Are We, In This World."



Good Morning Precious and Dearly Loved Saint and Child of Our Abba Father!

“As Jesus is, so are you, in this world.” 1 John 4:17.      These are some of the biggest words spoken to us and about us in all the Bible!   We need to really take hold of this Truth with all of our heart even in spite of raging circumstances that may be coming against us!  We need to take hold of this Truth no matter how weak we may be in the flesh because we are not just flesh anymore!!  We are as supernatural and miraculous as Jesus is!   We need to take hold of this Truth no matter how long we may have been sick and suffering!  No matter what life may be throwing at us, no matter how devasting, how painful, no matter how deep the attack is against us; we still need to stand on to this Truth with all of our heart, and never let go or give in to unbelief!!! 

 The enemy is enraged at all of us who are In Christ Jesus.  He is constantly making war against the Saints trying to kill, steal and destroy all of us!  We cannot be blind to his ways!  Nor can we be blind to our ways, to the Truth of who we are In Christ!  People many times think that because circumstances may be going haywire that God has left and forsaken us.  No, it just means that the enemy is still alive on the earth!  The enemy does his evil wiles, then blames God for all the havoc that he, himself, just created trying to get people to believe that God has deserted them.  He tries to torment people with fear, discouragement, weakness, despair, hopelessness… 

 We need to rise up during these times and realize what is happening and not let the dammed enemy have his way in our life!  We need to stand on the Truth that we “More than Conquerors” through Christ’s Love and that “we are as Jesus is, in this world”, that we are one with Jesus, seated in the heavenly realm, in Him, already and completely victorious!!!!  We cannot lose sight of the Truth of what the Father has already done to us and all that He has already given to us! 

 The enemy is trying to get us to take our eyes off of the reality that we are In Christ and are already seated In Christ in the heavenly Spiritual realm!  We need to press into the power and friendship and Love of Holy Spirit and bury ourselves deep in Him during the times of great attack!!!  Holy Spirit is the presence of the Father and Jesus on earth with us today!  Yes, He is by-in-large unseen to the natural mind, but that does not mean that He is not very real and very powerful on our behalf!!! 

 Within Holy Spirit is the flowing of the supernatural and miraculous power of the Father, and He is continually releasing all of His Love and power to us!  We just need to stay in belief and not doubt!  Sometimes this believing takes work!!!  When the attack from the enemy is on, it takes work to stand on the Truth!!!  When fear, doubt, unbelief, discouragement come knocking at your door, it takes work, it takes engaging your heart in the Truth of the Love of the Father through the presence of Holy Spirit!!! 

 We need to join in and partner with the Spirit of Truth with our heart and not let our heart be swayed into the enemy’s land of unbelief, fear, hopelessness….      “Jesus answered, “The work of God is this: to believe in the One He has sent.” John 6:29.                            During the times of attack and really all times, it takes tenacity for us to stand firm.   Some people may say that they are not a tenacious person.   But the Truth of all Born-Again believers is we are In Christ and In Him, and are all filled with the resurrection power of God!!!  The truth is that even if you have been a very weak person in your human nature, you ARE more than a Conqueror in the Spirit!!!! 

 We need to no longer view ourselves in the flesh, by the flesh!  We need to take hold of the Truth with all the power of Holy Spirit, which all believers have, and stand firm in this unending, always flowing, Rivers of Love and Life flowing into us by the Holy Spirit!  This is not about your natural personality, we have become new creations!!!  It is about beholding the Lord’s glory and ourselves in His glory with an unveiled face, completely free of weakness of the flesh!  In Christ, we have ALL of His supernatural and miraculous power, authority! 

 “AS HE IS, SO ARE WE, IN THIS WORLD”!!!!!  To see Jesus is to see yourself!!!!   Are you ready to stand your ground and believe this “against all hope”?   We are as Jesus is!!!!!  He has become our Life inside of us no matter what is happening around us!   Are you ready to tenaciously take hold of the Truth of who you are In Christ?   To see Christ is to see yourself because “As He is, so are you, in this world.”                   SHALOM!!!!!!!!
