Is your hope in politics? No! Your hope is in Christ. God wants you to acknowledge Him in ALL your ways. God wants you to listen to His voice in ALL your ways. ALL your ways include your careers, social life, politics, and every other aspect of your life.

This current order will eventually fade and fall. However, you live your life in righteousness while you’re here. You stand against evil. Righteousness means being led by the Holy Spirit and only saying the words Christ says through you and only doing the acts Christ does through you. If you do that, Christ will have an impact on your culture. The battle is spiritual and must be fought in the spiritual realm.

Happy Are We

Happy Are We

Happy Are We

Happy are we, who go in
and come out no more,
For the fullness of One
– The Christ – The Son
Is the only door.
The truth is the way,
it’s revealed in this day,
His life has begun.
All flesh must cease
– then He gives peace
Victory has come!

Happy are we, joyful indeed
– we have liberty,
We are born from above,
we are birthed in His love
And His praises we sing.
His covenant are we,
we’re His joy and His peace,
Setting mankind free.
Sorrow has flown
– He’s come into His own,
So rejoice with me!

Listen, trust, and obey God by the power of the Holy Spirit. That makes sense. You can do that. You’ve done it. You’ve known when Christ showed you something was right and that you must do it. You’ve known when Christ showed you something was wrong and that you must not do it. You’ve sensed that something was wrong in a situation, and you avoided it. You’ve sensed the peace of God when something was in God’s will. You may not have given Christ the credit, but you should have.

You need to depend on the Holy Spirit alone. Depend on the Spirit of Christ.

That does bring up some questions. For instance, should you avoid all technical instructions and rather pray God would give you a vision to show you how to program your electronic devices? God could do that, and He could lead you that way. However, the Holy Spirit is likely to give you wisdom and lead you to read the instructions if that’s what’s needed. You need to be in the Spirit to have the wisdom of Christ flowing through you in either case. Should you avoid researching a topic or a procedure? Not necessarily. The Holy Spirit often leads you to look up the needed information. God will guide you in the process. When you come to a problem, you’re in the Spirit and seeking God’s will. The Holy Spirit can guide you to look at a video that shows how to do something technical. He can also give you confidence so you know what needs to be done. Don’t limit God.

Should you throw out your Bible if you depend on the Holy Spirit alone? No. The Holy Spirit will lead you to read your Bible. The Holy Spirit will interpret the meaning of the Bible for you. The Holy Spirit may guide you to look up the original meaning of a word. The Holy Spirit will warn you about false teachers and lead you to teachers and shepherds who will keep you safe from lies. He may lead you to one church body where you grow until you’re ready to move to another church body. You know God’s ultimate plan for the church is unity, but the body of Christ is in that interim between the promise and the full possession. The main thing is that you seek God’s will and yield to His Spirit. God is practical and active in your life.

What about politics in a republic like the United States? Should you avoid voting? Should you totally detach yourself? In the past, many Christians stepped out of politics. They turned their schools over to ungodly people. They turned their lawmaking responsibilities over to ungodly people. That resulted in ungodly laws that grieve the heart of God. And they thought it wouldn’t be a problem. However, it led to serious problems. Those problems are part of why the world is so crazy now.

Some say the Holy Spirit leads them to detach from the world. Some say the Holy Spirit tells them to avoid voting or even being aware of what’s happening in the world. I’m not going to second-guess that. Just be sure you’re listening to and following the Holy Spirit. Be sure you’re not following your own will or rationalized reasoning. It’s between you and God.

Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind. ~ Romans 14:5b

Be sure the Holy Spirit is leading you and not the culture, a persuasive leader, or the news media. Beware of the ungodly counselors in the media and the culture. Beware of false teachers and false prophets.

All your Ways

If you totally depend on Christ, He’s your life. You live, move, and have your being in His utterance as He leads, teaches, and corrects you moment by moment in every situation. You listen to Him and obey Him by His power as He gives you His free gift of righteousness. He speaks His words through you. He does His works through you. You don’t do your own thing anymore. Then, you don’t partially depend on Him and also depend on other sources for decision-making, understanding, wisdom, knowledge, or truth. You depend on Him wholeheartedly. You aren’t double-minded. You depend on Him for everything. You stop looking to ungodly counselors for guidance. You stop depending on your fallen mind. When you hear His voice you yield to His Spirit and allow Him to say His words and do His acts through you. The love of God is shed abroad in your heart by the Holy Ghost. If you continue to do that with a sense of expectation, you’ll know the truth. And the truth will set you free.

The Bible goes into some detail on the whole armor of God. It mentions the parts of this armor: truth, righteousness, the readiness of the gospel of peace, faith, salvation, and the word of God. Even so, it may seem hard to take hold of these parts of your armor and use them. They must become the center of your daily life.

Here’s a problem. Some Christians understand deism is a false doctrine. They know it’s wrong to say, “God created everything and then ran off somewhere far away.” They know God is a personal God. They point out that deists say God doesn’t answer prayer or perform miracles.

They know all this. And yet, they don’t glorify God by acknowledging God’s moment-by-moment leading and teaching in every situation. They find a comfortable place somewhere between full dependency on God and full dependency on their own abilities. They look for something lukewarm since they don’t want to be hot or cold. They want to avoid extremes. They just want to be double-minded, but they don’t want to apply the term “double-minded” to themselves. By the way, I’m struggling with the same tendency to lean on my own understanding. Are you?

Double-mindedness won’t work with what’s coming. God has a plan and pattern for avoiding double-mindedness.

You can be double-minded in several ways. If you depend on your own rationalizing mind so you try to mix your own thoughts and fleshly desires with God’s revelation, you will be double-minded. If you do that, you become spiritually confused because you are adding to God’s utterances or filtering out some of God’s utterances.

If you expose yourself to the many ungodly influencers, you will be double-minded. You could give yourself to newsrooms, classrooms, novels, movies, fact-checkers, or other methods by which ungodly minds seek to mold you to their ways of thinking. The messages of Rationalism, Secularism, Humanism, Evolutionism, Old-earthism, Scientism, Naturalism, and Materialism infuse every form of media and education in the same way the Holy Spirit infuses the Scripture. Can you hold fire in your laps without burning your clothes? If circumstances force you to listen to these influencers, you must be on your guard. And you must be more intimately close to Christ. You need to ask the Holy Spirit to protect your mind and keep you on the track of truth.

the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous. ~ Psalm 1:5

The wicked won’t be able to stand when the judgement comes. You live in a serious hour. You must become single-minded toward Christ. You must give up your allegiance to the worldly systems. You must even give up your loyalty to your own ideas. You must allow the Holy Spirit to continue to lead, teach, and correct every part of your thinking.

Therefore take up the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you will be able to stand your ground, and having done everything, to stand. ~ Ephesians 6:13

Ungodly news, advice, and entertainment media act like a great false prophet in the earth. These are ungodly counselors. Keep in mind their goal is a godless society. If you follow ungodly counselors, you won’t be able to stand on the coming evil day.

Some Christians try to split themselves between walking in the Spirit and walking in the world. They will never have spiritual stability. They won’t be found faithful. Globalists are now trying to set up their godless new world order. If God allows them to have their way, it will be an evil day.

Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked ~ Psalm 1:1

King James Version says, “Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly.”

God is looking for those who will listen to His voice wholeheartedly. The double-minded will receive nothing from the Lord. If you try to straddle the fence, you’ll never develop discernment to tell God’s voice from your own thoughts. You won’t know the difference between God’s voice and the wicked ideas of ungodly people.

GOD IS BUILDING A TEMPLE

GOD IS BUILDING A TEMPLE

In the scriptures it is written,
The saints of God shall live as peculiar people set apart,
For they are holy vessels and sanctified to God,
Temples of the Holy Ghost.

CHORUS:

God is building a temple made of living stones.
They are fitted according to His plan.
They are cleansed and joined together by the blood of the Lamb,
God is building a dwelling place.

Now each stone is chosen as the Lord directs,
Chiseled by testing and by trial.
For they are chosen vessels to fit a certain place,
A holy habitation unto God.

You can be double-minded in many ways, but there’s a common theme. If you depend on human intellect along with following the Holy Spirit, you are double-minded. You make a provision for the flesh. You add your own ideas to God’s revelation and leading. You follow ungodly council. You might follow ungodly news, advice, and entertainment media. You might follow ungodly education. You may read ungodly magazine articles. Often, these aren’t openly sinful, but they’re godless. They look at life from a humanist perspective. Some have a spirituality, but they don’t carry the Spirit of Christ. Those are the worst. Until you develop spiritual maturity, these can draw you in and deceive you.

God warned me about these decades ago. He called them “the great false prophet.” Since those days, I see they’re part of a great false prophet system that seeks to filter and control every message. They pander to human cravings and lusts. They stir up envy, jealousy, fear, and anger. They know sex sells.
