That is all that I can do. I have to believe in God because I am too deep into this. I have to believe that it is him talking to me and guiding me where I should go. I have to keep believing that this is what he wants me to do . . .
This is the message to you . . . you have to keep believing.
Don't Stop Believin'
Remember that song by the band Journey? The song that talks about normal people just trying to make it. Normal people who have dreams hopes and aspirations to achieve something better in life. God is saying that it is possible. All things are possible through Christ Jesus who strengthens us.
Now the thing is, Christians usually would not look at a secular song and say that it has anything to do with the will of God. But I have news for you, God will claim back everything that is his. God will use whom ever he wants and needs to in order to plant seeds of righteousness. He is constantly planting seeds for his kingdom. He wants all his children to receive the message that he is coming back for us. He needs us to help him spread that message. So don't stop believing that this thing is real. God's plan is real . . .
We may not always see or understand how this works but it is real. He sets people out there to be his servants and his witnesses. The best servants to his will are the ones that don't even know they are serving him . . . they probably think they are doing something on their own, but trust and believe that God has this whole thing under his control. So after you put all your trust in him, and after you believe in him; then you need to remember and keep remembering all that he has promised his people.
He is making believers, true believers, a people unto himself. He is making us his children when he chooses us, when he calls us, and when he changes us. Our only responsibility is to humble ourselves and obey what ever he tells us to do. He is telling us to answer the call and we will be part of his kingdom.
There is so much to learn and God has so much to teach us. So can we please answer him. Can we please talk to him and build a relationship with him. Can we please keep believing in his word so that we can be fruitful in his purpose for us.
It is not that hard to do what God has gifted us to do. It is our talent, our gifts, our hopes and our dreams that he wants us to achieve. We can do it for God if we shake off the fear, and if we practice the things that he tells us to practice. Each and everyone of us has what it takes to contribute to the building up of his Kingdom. Each and everyone of us has ideas and goals that we want to accomplish. Let us do it to help others, serve others, inspire and motivate others to do the same. Let us love each other so much that we would only want the best and the brightest for them. Encouraging them to be the very best they can be. Their service to others is a service to God.
I thank God for the understanding that he has given me thus far. One very Important thing that I am understanding is: I can not teach you anymore than what you are willing to learn. I can not teach you the principles of heaven, or the laws of God to the point where you will have full understanding. The understanding and interpretation will only come from the Holy Spirit.
No matter how hard I try to spell it out, or to teach practical wisdom, the mind that is conformed to the world will misinterpret the information and will gather wrong insight and wrong understanding. The word of God is real, alive, and active. It is never changing and it is all powerful. I do not have the place to teach what the greatest teacher needs to reveal to you. My job as a teacher is to catch you up to what has already been revealed so that the Holy spirit can continue the work.
If we do not let the Holy spirit make the increase in understanding the flesh will always change it to what it desires it to be. Our original human nature is selfish, prideful, and without understanding. It is imperative to seek the Lord and his wisdom in order to truly know who God is. It is only by the Holy Spirit increasing understanding to the new spirit that we received from God that we can separate from the sinful nature of the flesh.
I want to know God. There is so much to know. The only way I can do that is to listen and obey him and all that I do. I am seeking the Kingdom of Heaven. I suggest that you do the same.
I understand that you are looking for something more and something better. You can only do this if you are seeking the Kingdom of Heaven and its righteousness. If you are seeking this knowledge for any other reason than to serve the Lord, then you have the wrong understanding. You will not gather insight to the great mysteries of God and his kingdom. Seek God.
God holds infinite knowledge, so it would be wise to continue to talk to the holy spirit, asking, praying, and seeking continuously. Never think that you know enough, for this will hinder your growth and you will be stalled forever in your pride. Continue to be humble, knowing that you will fail. However, you will learn from your failure and continue to grow in the Lord if you don't give up.
Many people are waiting. Many people are looking for more to this life. They are willing to follow anything that will take them to where they desire to go. But most people don't really know where they want to go. Many people are lost and just have a feeling down in their heart that there is something better. They are waiting for something. I am here to tell you that you are waiting for the truth. It is only the truth that will set you free.
So you really know all that is hidden inside of you?
Now, read these lyrics again and see how God can also use you to spread his word.
Don't Stop Believin'"
Just a small town girl
Livin' in a lonely world
She took the midnight train
Goin' anywhere
Just a city boy
Born and raised in South Detroit
He took the midnight train
Goin' anywhere
A singer in a smokey room
The smell of wine and cheap perfume
For a smile they can share the night
It goes on and on, and on, and on
Strangers waiting
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching
In the night
Streetlight people
Livin' just to find emotion
Hidin' somewhere in the night
Workin' hard to get my fill
Everybody wants a thrill
Payin' anything to roll the dice
Just one more time
Some will win
Some will lose
Some were born to sing the blues
Oh, the movie never ends
It goes on and on, and on, and on
Strangers waiting
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching
In the night
Streetlight people
Livin' just to find emotion
Hidin' somewhere in the night
[Instrumental interlude]
Don't stop believin'
Hold on to that feelin'
Streetlight people
Don't stop believin'
Hold on
Streetlight people
Don't stop believin'
Hold on to that feelin'
Streetlight people
Livin' in a lonely world
She took the midnight train
Goin' anywhere
Just a city boy
Born and raised in South Detroit
He took the midnight train
Goin' anywhere
A singer in a smokey room
The smell of wine and cheap perfume
For a smile they can share the night
It goes on and on, and on, and on
Strangers waiting
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching
In the night
Streetlight people
Livin' just to find emotion
Hidin' somewhere in the night
Workin' hard to get my fill
Everybody wants a thrill
Payin' anything to roll the dice
Just one more time
Some will win
Some will lose
Some were born to sing the blues
Oh, the movie never ends
It goes on and on, and on, and on
Strangers waiting
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching
In the night
Streetlight people
Livin' just to find emotion
Hidin' somewhere in the night
[Instrumental interlude]
Don't stop believin'
Hold on to that feelin'
Streetlight people
Don't stop believin'
Hold on
Streetlight people
Don't stop believin'
Hold on to that feelin'
Streetlight people
Don't stop believing that he is coming back.
May God be with you always. May the Holy Spirit lead you to your purpose.
Until next time
