Three major Factors that affect the quality of the believer’s spiritual, scriptural, and supernatural life… The measure of God’s grace received, by faith; in which, whatever the measure it is always sufficient and more that we truly deserve: 1Corinthians 15:10 But by the grace (Grace is God’s unmerited and undeserved favor, goodness, and blessing received by faith.) of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me. 2 Corinthians 12:7-10 (7) And lest I (the Apostle Paul) should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure. (8) For this thing I besought the Lord thrice (three times), that it might depart from me. (9) And he (The LORD) said unto me, My grace (Grace is God’s unmerited and undeserved favor, goodness, and blessing received by faith.) is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. (10) Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christs sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong. (This not indicating that we should not humble ourselves before the LORD that we might be in a position to receive greater grace, for greater grace we all need. However, we cannot force God’s hand to give us more grace, for such would be of works and only by humbling oneself before God, in repentance and faith, places one in the spiritual and scriptural position to be a recipient of God’s grace. In which, God measures such grace, according to His sovereign degree.) The mental set (attitudes) that one develops and embraces (actions) from the cradle to the grave: Proverbs 23:7 For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he… Depending upon the many various factors that influence the way one thinks (Whether such thoughts are acceptable to God or not are the determining factor.) from the cradle to the grave, greatly determines the quality of our spiritual, scriptural, and supernatural life. Attitudes-beliefs of our inner man, the soul, produce the actions-behaviors of the outward man expressed through our bodies in time and space. Such also includes the physiological effects of the infirmities of the body (sickness) including the infirmities of physical organ of the brain (chemical imbalances, neurological issues, affecting psychiatric issues), for man is a spirit, soul, and body and all three aspects of a man have a cause and effect in their lives, whether for good or evil. Galatians 6:7-8 (7) Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. (8) For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting. (In a sense, we are an accumulation of all the collective attitude-beliefs and actions-behaviors that we have experienced, whether such be of God or not. However, the more we sow to God’s will, way, worth, and works through repentance towards God and faith towards the LORD Jesus Christ, according to the absolute authority of the Scripture through the Spirit, the less we will reap of the flesh, corruption, and the more we will reap of the Spirit, everlasting life. To reap everlasting life is to experience, by faith, the reality of a spiritual, scriptural, and supernatural relationship and fellowship with God, though the LORD Jesus Christ and the Spirit, in this earthly life and to experience the reality of God, by the same, eternally in the next.). The miracle of transformation of one’s mind to the perfect will (mind) of God, by grace, through faith; in which the LORD Jesus Christ is consistently living His righteousness and resurrected life in and through the believer, manifesting the spiritual, scriptural, and supernatural reality of God: Romans 12:1-3 (1) I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, (continually doing such.) holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. (Such is reasonable in light of what God has done for us.) (2) And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed (changed) by the renewing of your mind (with the Scripture through the Spirit and supernaturally), that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. (3) For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith. (Whether one’s stature or stuff is great or less, we are and have because of God’s grace.) 2 Corinthians 3:17-18 (17) Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty (Liberty from sin’s penalty and power, Satan, and succumbing to the world.). (18) But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass (In the Scriptures) the glory (manifestation) of the Lord, are changed (spiritually, scripturally, and supernaturally transformed) into the same image (More specifically this is the LORD Jesus Christ living His righteousness and resurrected life in and through the believer, by the Spirit, in accordance to the Scripture.) from glory to glory (progressively), even as by the Spirit of the Lord. (We are indwell by the Spirit of God, to experience the manifestation of Sovereign God, through the Savior LORD Jesus Christ, according to the absolute authority of the Scripture.) Galatians 2:20 (This is the Apostle Paul’s testimony, even as ours should be…) I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. (If we are to experience the LORD Jesus Christ living His righteousness and resurrected Life in and through us, we must identify our sin nature being crucified with Christ and that we are now alive unto God, by faith, in the LORD resurrection person, power, and purpose being manifested in and through us.) Regardless of the measure of grace received by faith, the mental set of one at any given time, the miracles of transformation one is experiencing the perfect will (mind) of God, by grace, through faith; in which, the LORD Jesus Christ is consistently living His righteousness and resurrected life in and through the believer, manifesting the spiritual, scriptural, and supernatural reality of God, one can who is saved, by faith, in the LORD Jesus Christ can claim the following promise of the LORD Jesus Christ: John 10:9-11 Jesus said, (9) I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved (The LORD Jesus Christ is the door of salvation, but also the door of sanctification, separation, service and all other spiritual , scriptural, and supernatural realities.), and shall go in and out, and find pasture (spiritual, scriptural, and supernatural blessings). (10) The thief (the devil) cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy (The next time the devil deceives you and has his way with you, remind him his day is coming. Revelation 20:10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever. Devil you are a defeated foe, you may at times deceive me and have your devilish way with me, but there is coming a day when you will be eternally condemned. Whereas, I because of the blood of Jesus Christ, I will be eternally blessed with God forever.): I am come that they might have life (eternal), and that they might have it more abundantly (Abundant life is life over flowing with God’s person [the Savior LORD Jesus Christ], presence [the Spirit], power, purpose [found in the Scripture], protection, provisions, and perfect will regardless of the situation and circumstances of one’s life.). (11) I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep. (Our Savior LORD Jesus Christ died for us, for our sins, and arose from the grave to give us eternal life, life more abundantly, newness of life, and so much more.) It is my prayer that the LORD Jesus Christ will be glorified in and through all who have received, read (meditated upon), respond by faith, and may repost or use the above H.O.P.E.
