And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and pleasing and perfect. Romans 12:2.
Today your LORD (יהוה) God (אלהים) says:
Life is a personal gift from Me to you whereby we are joined forever. And I want you to have the best life, if you are willing and obey you will have the good things of the land, but even better now that Jesus has come and died to make you a new creation in Him so that old things have passed away and all things are new.
Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come. Now all these things are from God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ. 2 Corinthians 5:17-18.
But the new creation is about your spirit, which once Adam was born again from life to death by submitting to the corruptible seed of the devil’s lies, had become dead to Me and alive to sin. But now, with the curse reversed for those who have received My Son and confessed Him as Lord, your spirit has been resurrected and born again from death to life by the imperishable seed of My Word, which is truth, and has become dead to sin and alive to Me. In the spirit, you died to sin when Christ died to sin once for all, and when I raised Christ from the dead by the Spirit, I raised your spirit up with Him and seated you above with Christ at My right hand, in Him in the spirit.
But in the flesh you are still of the earth and on the earth. And your soul, which consists of your mind, will, and emotions, is the connection between your spirit and your flesh that will direct your life either by the spirit or by the flesh, depending on whether you are getting the most input from your spirit into your mind or from your flesh into your mind. Where you are drawing your thoughts from is of primary importance. And if you mind is set below and not above, your input is primarily from the flesh and you will be behaving like the unbelievers who are not born again by receiving Jesus, My Word, and confessing Him as Lord.
To be spiritually minded is life and peace, but to be fleshly minded (carnally minded) is death and anxiety (torment). If you are spiritually minded, that is, walking by faith in My Word and not merely by sight (physical circumstances), you can take authority over your body and have a supernatural life of amazing and awesome wonders for the Kingdom and the benefit of all—a life lived to the praise of My glory (My glory is My goodness, presence, and power manifested).
But if your mind is primarily being fed with thoughts from your flesh, you will limit yourself and be trapped in the works of the flesh, which all lead to death. The flesh is not eternal as your spirit and soul are, so it is trying to grab everything temporal it can and consume it while it still is living before it returns to the dust from which it came. And it will try to trap your spirit and soul in the flesh as well, but for you who believe, your spirit and soul will live on forever with Me. I have put eternity in every person’s heart. You will receive a new and glorified body that is immortal and forever soon.
You want to give primary attention to input from your spirit and My Words, which are Spirit and life, will strengthen you in the inner man, that is, they will feed your spirit and your soul. Then your spirit can take authority over your flesh. Revelation, impartation, and direction from My Spirit come into your spirit and then you must renew your mind in My Word so you think, talk, and walk like Me.
You have the opportunity to be entirely transformed by the renewal of your mind in My Word and the offering of your body as a LIVING sacrifice. Jesus died in the flesh to make you alive in the Spirit and now you can offer Me your dominion authority over the earth as part of the body of Christ to bring about Kingdom results on the earth. You have been bought at the price of Jesus’ blood and His life. Glorify God in your body, but aside all else that would demean it and trash it in lust and the works of the flesh.
But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not carry out the desire of the flesh. For the flesh sets its desire against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; for these are in opposition to one another, so that you may not do the things that you please. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the Law. Now the deeds of the flesh are evident, which are: immorality, impurity, sensuality, idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, disputes, dissensions, factions, envying, drunkenness, carousing, and things like these, of which I forewarn you, just as I have forewarned you, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. Now those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live by the Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit. Galatians 5:16-25
There is a very great difference between the works of the flesh and the fruit of the Spirit. Just read over them again and I will ask you a question, which of the two would you rather have as your lifestyle? Which description of the atmosphere in your home would you prefer? Immorality, strife, outbursts of anger, disputes, drunkenness and dissensions? Or love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control? I do not think there is any question as to which atmosphere you would prefer to spend your life. One is hell on earth and one is Heaven on earth. And the difference between the two is based on only one thing: How you treat My Word.
The works of the flesh describes the lives of those who reject My Words and walk in the selfish ways of the flesh and the fruit of the Spirit describes the lives of those who love My Word and delight in keeping it in their hearts, minds, and mouths, in other words, those who taken the time and effort to renew their minds in My Word. And what did that do? Transformed them from sinners to saints, rescued them from darkness into My own marvelous light, a kingdom, priests unto Me.
How do you renew your mind so you can be transformed from darkness to light, from torment to peace, from lack to plenty, from impurity to purity, from sickness to health and from depression to joy unspeakable full of glory? Practice holding your attention on My Word. “Let the Word of God dwell in your richly.” That means for you to be full of My Word in abundance. If you are full of My Word, then nothing else can get in. Worship and singing in the Spirit can get you up quickly into My presence so you can hear what I am saying.
Have you ever studied My Word on putting on My full armor so you can withstand the works of Satan and his demons? Renewing your mind is putting on My full armor. It is girding yourself with truth (and My Word is truth and the truth sanctifies you), protecting your heart with the breastplate of righteousness (established in righteousness you are far from oppression), putting on peace as your footgear (try to be at peace with all men as far as you are able) (how beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news of Salvation), the shield of faith to put out the fiery darts and attacks of Satan, the helmet of Salvation (I have given you the anointed mind of Christ so you may think on what is lovely, pure, and worthy of praise with no fear or worry allowed in), and the sword of the Spirit, which is My Word spoken out of your mouth in every situation and to take down every lie of the enemy with the truth of My Word, and that is the way to trample on Satan and all the forces of his dark realm.
When the devil tries to oppress you with symptoms, fear, lust, immorality, anger, hatred, or any other work of the flesh, you have a higher place to draw from than the trouble, pain, or sickness that attacks you. A higher place to draw on than the flesh, and it is My Word. If you are full of My Word, My Word speaks to you for I am the voice behind My Word, what you put in your heart in abundance your mouth speaks. If it is the Word, you will speak faith.
Make your mouth do it work when trouble shows up. Hearing the Word stores the Word and faith in your heart, but the world is not changed until the Word is spoken and acted upon. You know that from the first chapter of Genesis to the last chapter of Genesis. It is all about believing in your heart and speaking with your mouth. And that is the only way to renew your mind so that you are not conformed to this world and the works of the flesh, but to the Kingdom and the fruit of the Spirit.
People often want to be healed, to prosper, to be happy, and yet they never tap into the source. MY WORDS ARE LIFE TO THOSE WHO FIND THEM AND HEALTH (MEDICINE) TO ALL THEIR FLESH. I SENT MY WORD TO HEAL YOU AND TO DELIVER YOU FROM ALL DESTRUCTIONS.
And that is the source of healing, prosperity, and deliverance, not your body, not your work, not your self help and new age concepts making you the power and source. The power is in My Word for I am My Word.
I give you a very simple and enjoyable way to be transformed to a new you so that your soul and body match your resurrected spirit and it is by meditating, speaking, and doing My Word as your lifestyle. But to do that you must read it, hear it, and spend time with Me in My Word. And for some people that is just too simple for them to think it would heal, prosper, and make their lives into days of Heaven on earth.
Do you remember Naaman, the one who came to Israel to be healed of his leprosy and was sent to the prophet Elisha? He almost missed being transformed because it seemed too simple.
So Naaman came with his horses and his chariots and stood at the doorway of the house of Elisha. Elisha sent a messenger to him, saying, “Go and wash in the Jordan seven times, and your flesh will be restored to you and you will be clean.” But Naaman was furious and went away and said, “Behold, I thought, ‘He will surely come out to me and stand and call on the name of the LORD his God, and wave his hand over the place and cure the leper.’ Are not Abanah and Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them and be clean?” So he turned and went away in a rage. Then his servants came near and spoke to him and said, “My father, had the prophet told you to do some great thing, would you not have done it? How much more then, when he says to you, ‘Wash, and be clean’?” So he went down and dipped himself seven times in the Jordan, according to the word of the man of God; and his flesh was restored like the flesh of a little child and he was clean. 2 Kings 5:9-14.
If you are willing and obey you will have the best. Selah.
I love you. Be very grateful for My Words, it is My Words in your mouth that give you the results you want. What you are grateful for the devil cannot steal from you, for what you are thanking Me for is what you are thinking about and you are releasing faith through gratitude, whether it be for healing, for prosperity, or for peace.
