May the Work of God Be Displayed in Your Life

‘NEITHER THIS MAN NOR HIS PARENTS SINNED,’ SAID JESUS, ‘BUT THIS HAPPENED SO THAT THE WORK OF GOD MIGHT BE DISPLAYED IN HIS LIFE’
(John 9:3).

Beautiful One, know that I, the Father of the Heavenly Lights, want you to be healed from the damaging childhood incidents in your life that caused you to feel condemned, shamed, abandoned, and rejected. I want to fill you with My good and perfect Gifts from above.

 But you need to take your focus off the childhood incidents that caused you to feel so guilty and condemned, even now, and turn your focus to My Son, Jesus.  It is not what you did, that matters, but what Jesus did for you, for I, the Perfect Father, did not send My Son into the world to condemn you, but to save you. Therefore, allow My saving work to be displayed in your life, for I satisfy the thirsty and fill the hungry with good things, if you let Me.

 FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD THAT HE GAVE HIS ONE AND ONLY SON, THAT WHOEVER BELIEVES IN HIM SHALL NOT PERISH BUT HAVE ETERNAL LIFE. FOR GOD DID NOT SEND HIS SON INTO THE WORLD TO CONDEMN THE WORLD, BUT TO SAVE THE WORLD THROUGH HIM
(
John 3:16-17).

In the same way, Child, take your focus off your parents or other persons of authority who caused you harm, during your childhood.  It is not about what they did or did not do that matters.  It is about whether you are willing to submit the abandonment, shame, rejection, and condemnation that resulted from the father-of-lies to My Son, Jesus, so My saving work might be displayed in your life.

FOR HE SATISFIES THE THIRSTY AND FILLS THE HUNGRY WITH GOOD THINGS
(Psalm 107:9).

I bless you today to allow the saving work of God to be displayed in your life: His Light in your darkness…His Hope in your hopelessness…His Wisdom in your confusion…His Righteousness in your sinfulness…His Wholeness in your brokenness…His Power in your weakness…His Peace in your anxiety…His Comfort in your sorrow…His Grace in your guilt.

How might you apply “it is not what YOU did that matters, but what JESUS did for you”?

How might you apply “it is not what THEY did, that matters, but what JESUS did for you”?

PRAYER: Lord Jesus, how comforted I am that it is not about what I did or did not do, and it is not about what they did or did not do.  It is all about what You DID for me. Thank you that You came to save me.

Regardless of which pain you have, the determining question is, WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO WITH IT?

The Two Counsels

Selfish Ambitions

HE WAS A MURDERER FROM THE BEGINNING, NOT HOLDING TO THE TRUTH, FOR THERE IS NO TRUTH IN HIM
(John 8:44).

He was a murderer from the beginning, looking for opportunities to instill untruths in you—lies that would take you captive from the inside out.  One of the lies the enemy instilled in me was the belief “I am not needed.”  Some people feel invisible.  Others feel overlooked.  It does not matter what form this lie of unworthiness takes, the common denominator is “I am unnecessary…disposable…unwanted.”

 WHEN HE LIES, HE SPEAKS HIS NATIVE LANGUAGE, FOR HE IS A LIAR AND THE FATHER OF LIES
(John 8:44).

His name is the father-of-lies.  When he lies, he speaks his native language.  This is the only language he knows…and he has been lying to YOU, since childhood.

Realize that the lie “I am unnecessary…disposable…unwanted,” creates pain.  And the pain causes you to want to DO something, so you would BECOME someone who IS necessary…needed…wanted.

FOR WHERE YOU HAVE ENVY AND SELFISH AMBITION, THERE YOU FIND DISORDER AND EVERY EVIL PRACTICE
(James 3:16).

This is exactly what the father-of-lies has planned, all along.  He planted the lie that you are not needed in your heart, so you would develop an ardent desire for fame, rank, and power.  The father-of-lies’ plan works really well, since you would become so busy harboring bitter envy and selfish ambition in your heart, that you would have no time to become quiet before God and find out who you really are.

Do you feel unnecessary…unneeded…unwanted? What have you done to compromise for these painful beliefs from the father-of-lies?

I bless you to bring your lie of feeling unwanted and unneeded to the Lord Jesus, instead of harboring bitter envy and selfish ambition in your heart.  When the Lord Jesus tells you the Truth about you, the father-of-lies will lose his hold on you, and you will become God-oriented instead of goal-oriented.

PRAYER: Lord God, I want to know who I really am. Therefore, I lay my perturbing perceptions of being unnecessary, unneeded, and unwanted at Your feet. Show me the Truth about myself, Lord, so I may find rest for my soul, instead of burning with envy and selfish ambition, from the inside-out.

Love Your Neighbor as Yourself

JESUS REPLIED: ‘LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART AND WITH ALL YOUR SOUL AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND.  THIS IS THE FIRST AND GREATEST COMMANDMENT.  AND THE SECOND IS LIKE IT: LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF’
(Matthew 22:37-39).

There is a set of lies living in my mind that carries a painful, negative message of failure, defilement, and unworthiness.  This compilation of deceit includes the degrading beliefs “You are bad.  You are not worthy to love and be loved.  You are useless.”  This cluster of deceit that lives in my mind—the OLD MAN—was shaped in my mind, one lie at a time, by the father-of-lies, since I was a child.

Because of the message these negative, destructive beliefs convey “You are unimportant, You are unacceptable, You are unwanted,” I have a hard time loving myself.  And because I have a hard time loving myself, I have a hard time loving my neighbor, or my friends, or my family, or my co-workers, or my enemies, as myself.

KNOWING THIS, THAT OUR OLD MAN IS CRUCIFIED WITH HIM, THAT THE BODY OF SIN MIGHT BE DESTROYED, THAT HENCEFORTH WE SHOULD NOT SERVE SIN
(Romans 6:6).

Take note that Jesus was crucified to get rid of the set of negative, destructive OLD MAN beliefs, instilled in your mind by the father-of-lies. But you have an obligation: to BELIEVE and to RECEIVE! You need to believe that the Lord Jesus also died for YOUR OLD MAN beliefs: “You are unimportant, You are unacceptable, You are unwanted.” All you need to do is surrender YOUR OLD MAN beliefs to Him, in faith, and ask Him to show you your new set of beliefs. He will show you that you are loved, you are accepted, and you are worthy.

AND THE SECOND IS LIKE IT: ‘LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF’

And because of your new set of positive, constructive beliefs, you will be able to love yourself.  And because you will love yourself, you will be able to love your neighbor, your friends, your family, your co-workers, and your enemies, too.

Do you love yourself the way God does, or do you feel unworthy, unwanted, and unloved?

How have these accusatory beliefs about yourself influenced your relationships with your neighbor, your family, your friends, your co-workers, and your enemies? What are you going to do about this?

PRAYER: Lord God, bring me to the place where I will be rid of my personal beliefs of being unwanted, unloved, and unworthy. I know that these accusatory beliefs live in my OLD MAN. Therefore, I submit my OLD MAN to Your crucified work on the cross, Lord Jesus. Show me who I really am, so I may love myself, my family, my friends, and my enemies, as well.

The Father Has Life in Himself

I sometimes experience negative, destructive beliefs that really hurt—that I am dispensable…that I am dishonorable…that I am disgraced—and no matter how much I struggle, these painful beliefs stay in my mind.  No amount of struggle, warfare, or arguing can get rid of them.  DEATH reigns in my mind.

FOR AS THE FATHER HAS LIFE IN HIMSELF, SO HE HAS GRANTED THE SON TO HAVE LIFE IN HIMSELF
(John 5:26).

Celebrate that the Perfect Father has LIFE in Himself.  Therefore, He granted His Son, Jesus, to have LIFE, as well…and He sent Jesus to grant that LIFE to YOU.

BUT THESE ARE WRITTEN THAT YOU MAY BELIEVE THAT JESUS IS THE CHRIST, THE SON OF GOD, AND THAT BY BELIEVING YOU MAY HAVE LIFE IN HIS NAME
(John 20:31).

I bless you to believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, who came to bring YOU LIFE in His Name. In His Name, you can experience Truth for the negative, destructive beliefs that you are dispensable, dishonorable, and disgraced.  In His Name, you can receive Hope for your hopelessness.  In His Name, you can encounter Light for your darkness.

YET YOU REFUSE TO COME TO ME TO HAVE LIFE
(John 5:40).

But you have an obligation: to come to the Lord Jesus, so He may give you the LIFE that was given Him by the Perfect Father. Enter into the LIFE He is offering you, instead of trying to take revenge for the negative, destructive beliefs in your mind.  Embrace His LIFE, instead of withdrawing from others in pain.  Ask Him to feed you with His LIFE, instead of trying to fix your heart by yourself. Then, YOU will have LIFE, too.

I AM THE BREAD OF LIFE
(John 6:48).

In what ways and through which negative, destructive beliefs does DEATH reign in your heart?

Considering what you know about the Lord Jesus now, what are you going to do about this death that reigns in your heart, today?

PRAYER: Thank you, Lord Jesus, that You came from the Father to be my BREAD OF LIFE. How encouraging to know that through believing I can also have LIFE in Your name. Lord Jesus, I choose to come to You to receive this BREAD OF LIFE. I am tired of death that has been reigning in me through the accusatory beliefs of the father-of-lies. Draw me close, so my heart may be fed by the BREAD OF LIFE, instead of the negative, destructive beliefs of the father-of-lies.

So, yes, the deepest urge in human nature seems to be the desire to be important–to matter. But, it is not the PRINCIPLE of wanting to be important that is wrong; instead, it is the way we adapt or the means we adopt to meet this most urgent desire of our hearts.

His Blessing of Truth

WHEN I WAS A CHILD, I TALKED LIKE A CHILD, I THOUGHT LIKE A CHILD, I REASONED LIKE A CHILD. WHEN I BECAME A MAN, I PUT CHILDISH WAYS BEHIND ME
(1 Corinthians 13:11).

Understand that the goal of the father-of-lies during your childhood was to produce in you a distorted mind and a disturbed heart: to promote the beliefs “You don’t belong…You are a failure…You are fatally flawed.”  The father-of-lies knew that if you would accept these accusatory beliefs as a child, you would become a slave to them for the rest of your life.

I WILL REPAY YOU FOR THE YEARS THE LOCUSTS HAVE EATEN
(Joel 2:25).

However, God has paid for the years the locusts have eaten: He sent His Son, Jesus, to reverse the lies from the father-of-lies in your heart…if you let Him.  You were bought with a price to become a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, that you should proclaim Him who called you out of the dark beliefs of the father-of-lies, into His marvelous Light of Truth.

BUT YOU ARE A CHOSEN PEOPLE, A ROYAL PRIESTHOOD, A HOLY NATION, GOD’S SPECIAL POSSESSION, THAT YOU MAY DECLARE THE PRAISES OF HIM WHO CALLED YOU OUT OF DARKNESS INTO HIS WONDERFUL LIGHT
(1 Peter 2:9).

Receive God’s blessings of Love, Truth, and Hope He is offering you in exchange for the hopelessness, fear, and deception of your childhood years.  Meet Him face to face.  Experience His Love.  Taste His Hope.  Feel His Power.  Encounter His Truth.  Discover His Comfort.  Absorb His Light, so you may be children of God, without blemish, in the midst of a crooked and twisted generation that lives according to the lies of the father-of-lies.

SO THAT YOU MAY BECOME BLAMELESS AND PURE, ‘CHILDREN OF GOD WITHOUT FAULT IN A WARPED AND CROOKED GENERATION.’ THEN YOU WILL SHINE AMONG THEM LIKE STARS IN THE SKY
(Philippians 2:15).

 The Perfect Father sent you a Redeemer. Will you let Him redeem the years the locusts have eaten?

Are you willing to EMBRACE the pain, EXPOSE the lies, and let your Savior EXCHANGE these years for a whole new life?

PRAYER: Lord Jesus, I acknowledge You as my Savior: the One who is able to redeem…the One who is able to win back the years that have been stolen from me…the One who is able to free me from childhood blame, debt, and the consequences of sin. I lay these years at Your feet, my Lord. Please repair, restore, and reform the years the locusts have eaten.

The Two Counsels

The Light of Life

YOU HAVE MADE KNOWN TO ME THE PATH OF LIFE; YOU WILL FILL ME WITH JOY IN YOUR PRESENCE
(Psalm 16:11).

I often hear people say, “Pain is part of life…and needs to be accepted.”  But, the Perfect Father has made known to me His Path of Life: that pain is a part of life…and needs to be exchanged.

Precious One, pain is a result of the OLD MAN beliefs in your heart from the father-of-lies: that you are not needed here on earth…that you have no value…that you are not worthy to be celebrated.  If you react to your pain, you will walk in darkness. This will cause you to stumble and die.

FOR YOU HAVE DELIVERED ME FROM DEATH AND MY FEET FROM STUMBLING, THAT I MAY WALK BEFORE GOD IN THE LIGHT OF LIFE
(Psalm 56:13).

Beloved, I, the Perfect Father, sent the Light of the World to redeem the negative, destructive OLD MAN beliefs of the father-of-lies, and to exchange them for the Truth.

Your path of life is not only filled with pain, but with the Light of Life. But you have an obligation: to find the OLD MAN beliefs that are causing your pain and submit them to My Son, the Light of the World. He will fill you with joy in My Presence.

WHEN JESUS SPOKE AGAIN TO THE PEOPLE, HE SAID, ‘I AM THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD. WHOEVER FOLLOWS ME WILL NEVER WALK IN DARKNESS, BUT WILL HAVE THE LIGHT OF LIFE’
(John 8:12).

Child, walk in the Light of My Presence.  Do not accept your pain of abandonment. Do not comply with your pain of shame. Do not submit to your pain of condemnation. Instead, follow the Light of the World into the Light of Life.  He is My Answer to your hopelessness, helplessness, and powerlessness.  He will turn your heart’s belief “I am not worthy to be loved” into “I have value.” He will exchange “I am doomed in my darkness” for “I have the Light of Life.” He will deliver you from death and your feet from stumbling.

Do you want to enter a new path?

Realize that if you want to BE someone different, you need to DO something different. Otherwise, you will always end up on the very same path, as before, and be the very same person, as before. Therefore, be ready to try something new, every day, moment-by-moment: find the beliefs that cause your pain, expose them to the Lord Jesus, and let Him take you on a new journey.

PRAYER: Lord Jesus, I am tired of stumbling along on my path of darkness. Please bring me onto Your Path of Life. Help me to follow You, daily, moment-by-moment, one belief at a time.

How much of our misbehavior sprouts from trying to PROVE that we are acceptable, worthy, loved, and wanted, because the OLD MAN character, conveniently formed in us by the father-of-lies, christened us unacceptable, unworthy, unloved, and unwanted?

The Two Counsels

The Presence of God

YOU HAVE MADE KNOWN TO ME THE PATH OF LIFE;
YOU WILL FILL ME WITH JOY IN YOUR PRESENCE
(Psalm 16:11).

Precious Child, why do you feel hopeless? Do you not know that I am mighty to save? Invite My Presence into the circumstances that have filled you with dread, doom, and despair. I will show you the Path of Life.

Beloved, why is your heart trembling with sadness and loneliness? Do you not know that I am with you? Come to Me. I long to fill you with Joy in My Presence.

THE LORD YOUR GOD IS WITH YOU,
HE IS MIGHTY TO SAVE.
HE WILL TAKE GREAT DELIGHT IN YOU,
HE WILL QUIET YOU WITH HIS LOVE,
HE WILL REJOICE OVER YOU WITH SINGING
(Zephaniah 3:17).

Beautiful One, why is your heart filled with rejection and condemnation? Do you not know that I rejoice over you with singing? Come, let Me quiet you with My Love.

My Child, why is your heart sizzling with shame? Do you not know that I take great delight in you? Let Me fill you with My Joy when you come into My Presence.

JOY IS NOT THE ABSENCE OF TROUBLE,
BUT THE PRESENCE OF CHRIST
(William Vander Haven).

What do you usually do with your heart when it feels abandoned, hopeless, or condemned?

Are you willing to try something (or Someone) new, today? Would you pause before succumbing to your usual remedy, and invite the Presence of God into that empty place in your heart, instead? The only words you need to use are: “Help me, Lord Jesus.” Do this often…and you will notice a remarkable difference in your heart.

PRAYER: Lord Jesus, please help me. Please help my empty heart. Please remove the shame, the rejection, the loneliness, the sadness, the hopelessness, and the doom and dread, and fill me with Your Presence.

God, I Praise You

PRAISE BE TO THE GOD AND FATHER OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, THE FATHER OF COMPASSION AND THE GOD OF ALL COMFORT, WHO COMFORTS US IN ALL OUR TROUBLES
(2 Corinthians 1:3-4).

Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praise be to You for being the God of Compassion and the Lord of all Comfort.  You comfort me when I feel lonely.  When I go through the valley of the shadow of death, You assure me of Your Presence.  After everybody has left me, You are still there.

LET THEM PRAISE THE NAME OF THE LORD, FOR HE COMMANDED AND THEY WERE CREATED
(Psalm 148:5).

Perfect Father, I praise You, for when I am hopeless, You command…and Hope is created.  When I am powerless, You command…and Power is brought to life.  When I am in darkness, You command…and Light shines out of darkness.

FOR AS THE EARTH BRINGS FORTH ITS BUD, AS THE GARDEN CAUSES THE THINGS THAT ARE SOWN IN IT TO SPRING FORTH, SO THE LORD GOD WILL CAUSE RIGHTEOUSNESS AND PRAISE TO SPRING FORTH BEFORE ALL THE NATIONS
(Isaiah 61:11).

I praise You, Lord God, for You cause Your Righteousness to spring forth in me, when I do not rely on the righteousness of my own Self.  You fill me with Your Wisdom, when I do not lean on my own understanding.  You give me Peace, all the time, and in every way, when I ask for it.

THE LORD IS MY STRENGTH AND MY SHIELD; MY HEART TRUSTED IN HIM, AND I AM HELPED; THEREFORE MY HEART GREATLY REJOICES, AND WITH MY SONG I WILL PRAISE HIM
(Psalm 28:7).

God, my heart greatly rejoices, for You are my Strength when I am bent over in my own weakness.  My heart trusts in You and I am helped.

For what can you give thanks to God, today: for His Comfort when you were lonely, for His Power when you were weak, for His Light that shone in your darkness, or for His Righteousness that replaced your sinful habits and patterns of escape?

If you cannot praise God for anything He has personally done for you, you might know Him from your head, but not from your heart. If you want to get to know Him from your heart, invite His Presence and Participation into each and every perturbing perception of your heart.

Then, He will meet you there…in your heart.

Therefore, do not despair of the evil done against you: the insincerity…the depravity…the immorality.  They might have meant evil against you; BUT GOD will cancel the effects of any evil done against you, in the past, in the present, and in the future, if you submit to His discipline.

The Two Counsels

More than Conquerors

I live in Nova Scotia, on Cape Breton Island, with the ocean in my back yard.  This means beauty, awesomeness, and excitement, but it also means sea breezes, gales, and hurricanes, and because of this very reason, there is a story about an apple tree in my back yard that built its own defense.  Because of the exposure to the sea storms, the apple tree had a hard time bearing fruit, so it used most of its limbs on the windy side to build a shield against the storms.  Those limbs did not bear fruit.  Then, it grew a few limbs on the wind-protected side of the tree.  Those limbs blossomed and bore fruit. Year after year, we have watched the crooked old apple tree only bear fruit on one side.

HERE ON EARTH, YOU WILL HAVE MANY TRIALS AND SORROWS
(John 16:33).

Precious Child, here on earth, you will have many trials and sorrows—storms of life that will come against you.  You will be tempted to build your own defense mechanisms: shelters to cover your heart against pain…shields to ward off the accusations from blamers…barricades to keep yourself safe from gossip.  You might be so busy building walls of defense that there is no energy left to bear fruit.

BUT TAKE HEART, BECAUSE I HAVE OVERCOME THE WORLD
(John 16:33).

Take heart, Child.  I, Jesus, your Savior, have overcome the world.  Do not be sidetracked when you discover a storm raging towards you. Do not hide. Do not run away. Do not blame. Instead, stay where you are and embrace the storm. Expose the beliefs of your pain-filled heart to Me. Submit the trials and sorrows that the gossip and accusations cause, to Me. Accept Me as your defense against abandonment, shame, and rejection, so you may bear fruit…on all sides. 

‘AND I WILL REBUKE THE DEVOURER FOR YOUR SAKES, SO THAT HE WILL NOT DESTROY THE FRUIT OF YOUR GROUND, NOR SHALL THE VINE FAIL TO BEAR FRUIT FOR YOU IN THE FIELD’, SAYS THE LORD OF HOSTS
(Malachi 3:11).

What mechanisms of defense have you built against the storms in your life—techniques that have kept you from bearing fruit?

What will it take for you to make the Lord Jesus your method of defense, so that you do not have to use your own energy to create a defense mechanism against your enemies? Know that, if you ask Him, the Lord God will rebuke the devourers for your sake, so they will stop destroying your fruit. 

PRAYER: Lord Jesus, become my Defense…my Protection against the storms…my Safeguard against the father-of-lies. Rebuke the devourers for my sake, so that they would not destroy my fruit. Hallowed be Your blessed Name!

The Two Counsels

Strength to the Powerless

I often hear people say, “My SPOUSE attacked me. My COWORKER belittled me. My FRIEND insulted me!”  The truth is it is the FATHER-OF-LIES who assaulted you.  During someone’s offense, the father-of-lies will accuse you of being powerless, helpless, and hopeless, and this is what is really hurting your heart. If someone verbally or emotionally attacks you, it is their problem—their sinful reaction to the pain in their own heart—but if you feel attacked by them, chances are good that you have accepted an oppressing belief from the father-of-lies.

HE GIVES POWER TO THE WEAK AND STRENGTH TO THE POWERLESS
(Isaiah 40:29).

Do not be dismayed about the powerlessness you have been experiencing during verbal and emotional attacks.  Do not be distraught that you have been unable to help yourself feel safe.  Do not be distressed that you feel defenseless…unarmed…open to attack.

BUT HE SAID TO ME, ‘MY GRACE IS SUFFICIENT FOR YOU, FOR MY POWER IS MADE PERFECT IN WEAKNESS’
(2 Corinthians 12:9).

Instead, be encouraged that it is when you are weak that you might give God’s Power the opportunity to strengthen you.  Realize that God’s Power is the only Power that can stand up against the father-of-lies’ verbal and emotional attacks.

AND IF THE SPIRIT OF HIM WHO RAISED JESUS FROM THE DEAD IS LIVING IN YOU, HE WHO RAISED CHRIST FROM THE DEAD WILL ALSO GIVE LIFE TO YOUR MORTAL BODIES THROUGH HIS SPIRIT, WHO LIVES IN YOU
(Romans 8:11).

When you receive the Lord Jesus as your Savior, the same Power that raised Jesus from the dead is living in you to give you victory over your beliefs of powerlessness, helplessness, and hopelessness, when you ask for it.

How do you deal with your emotions and their underlying beliefs from the father-of-lies when you feel attacked by someone?

What will it take for you to surrender your feelings and beliefs of powerlessness, helplessness, and hopelessness to GOD’S POWER, during an attack from the father-of-lies…and receive victory?

PRAYER: Lord God, please remind me, when I am under verbal and emotional attack, that the attack that hurts the most is that from the father-of-lies. Always remind me not to focus on the PERSON who is doing the attacking, but to focus on my own heart…and on YOUR POWER. Remind me to submit the beliefs of helplessness, powerlessness, and hopelessness to You, so I may live in the strength of Your Power.
