We need to access the fruit of THE SPIRIT which has been placed inside us by FATHER!

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Galatians chapter 5:

22  But the fruit produced by the Holy Spirit within you is Divine Love in all Its varied expressions:

joy that overflows,

peace that subdues,

that endures,

kindness in action,

a life full of virtue,

faith that prevails,

gentleness of heart, and

strength of spirit.

Never set the law above these qualities, for they are meant to be limitless.

Faith is our response to what FATHER has already done by HIS grace.  We did not deserve to be saved neither did we deserve what has been deposited in us.  It is HIS gift of grace as a Loving FATHER.  This Truth is better understood as we get a greater revelation of HIS Love.

Faith is a fruit of THE SPIRIT given to us by FATHER… this is the measure of faith and we should expect it to produce unlimited resources.  Why?  It comes from the Spiritual realm and does not rely on our performance other than eliminating unbelief which counters faith’s operation in us.

The above fruit reflects the unlimited riches of HIS Glory on earth.

As Paul mentioned in the revelation given to him by Our Lord Jesus Christ when he wrote by The Holy Spirit in Ephesians chapter 3:

14 So I kneel humbly in awe before the Father of our Lord Jesus, the Messiah,

15 the Perfect Father of every father and child in heaven and on the earth.

16 And I pray that HE would unveil within you the unlimited riches of His glory and favor until supernatural strength floods your innermost being with His Divine might and explosive power.

FATHER’S power flows through us to manifest in the physical realm.  We have power and authority to rebuke the devil.  His only power is that of deception.

17 Then, by constantly using your faith, the Life of Christ will be released deep inside you, and the resting place of His Love will become the very Source and Root of your life.

The Life of Christ is our Source so let us keep this focus on a daily basis.  What will be the result?  Paul continues:

18-19 Then you will be empowered to discover what every Holy one experiences—the great magnitude of the astonishing Love of Christ in all Its dimensions. How deeply intimate and far-reaching is His Love! How enduring and inclusive It is! Endless Love beyond measurement that transcends our understanding—this extravagant Love pours into you until you are filled to overflowing with the fullness of God!

Gaining a greater revelation of FATHER’S Love is our ministry’s focus.  This is the key to full spiritual maturity.

20 Never doubt God’s mighty power to work in you and accomplish all this. He will achieve infinitely more than your greatest request, your most unbelievable dream, and exceed your wildest imagination! He will outdo them all, for his miraculous power constantly energizes you.

The only time Jesus prayed more than once for a person’s healing was due to the man living in unbelief.  He had to be removed from the environment of unbelief in order to receive his healing.

In Mark chapter 8, Jesus went to Bethsaida:

22 Then He came to Bethsaida; and they brought a blind man to Him, and begged Him to touch him. 23 So He took the blind man by the hand and led him out of the town. And when He had spit on his eyes and put His hands on him, He asked him if he saw anything.

24 And he looked up and said, “I see men like trees, walking.”

25 Then He put His hands on his eyes again and made him look up. And he was restored and saw everyone clearly. 26 Then He sent him away to his house, saying, “Neither go into the town, nor tell anyone in the town.”

For clarification of the issue of unbelief, Jesus spoke in Matthew chapter 11:

20  Then Jesus began to openly denounce the cities where he had done most of His mighty miracles, because the people failed to turn away from sin and return to God. [21] He said, “How tragic it will be for the city of Korazin! And how horrible for the city of Bethsaida! For if the powerful miracles that I performed in Korazin and Bethsaida had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have humbled themselves and repented, and turned from their sins.”

The people of Bethsaida were full of unbelief and this is why the blind man required additional attention by Jesus.  Once he began to see “men as trees”, his unbelief dissipated thus allowing Jesus to complete the healing.  Then, Jesus commanded him to not return to Bethsaida where unbelief prevailed.

Let not unbelief hinder our faith and keep the unlimited resources from manifesting.

A report from the teachers leading the effort:

We hit the ground running last week, and it’s been wild and crazy!

Backpacks & Barbecue was absolutely fantastic! We had a great turnout, and the families were so grateful! One of my favorite things was to see the teachers/Villagers sitting in the middle of families interacting and really getting to know them. It was wonderful. The kids were SO excited to come in and get to see teachers and get extra love and attention from them. 

We are going through our list to see which students have returned to Bethany this year and new kids that have moved in that could benefit from the program. We’ve also had several more teachers that are wanting to join. So we’re very excited about the upcoming school year and coming up with new ways we can support these kids and their families!

Mr. E brought the giftcards to us….THANK YOU! Several of our students already have needs that we have been able to meet!

Servias provided backpacks with contents, food, and gift cards to insure a successful event. Thank you!

You and I access the spirit realm through The Holy Spirit and The Word.

Jesus spoke in John 6:

63  The Holy Spirit is the One Who gives life, that which is of the natural realm is of no help. The Words I speak to you are Spirit and life. But there are still some of you who won’t believe.”

Wisdom and understanding must come from the Spiritual realm for us to appropriately deal with the challenges we currently face.  Man’s opinions are at best temporary solutions and frequently lead us down a path of death and destruction.

John wrote by The Holy Spirit in 1^st John chapter 4:

17 By living in God, Love has been brought to Its full expression in us so that we may fearlessly face the day of judgment, because all that Jesus now is, so are we in this world.

In our spirits, we have the same power, authority, faith, Love, and other fruit of The Spirit as Jesus.  Two things must happen.  First, we must realize that those gifts reside on the inside of us.  Secondly, we must get the revelation of how to access them and appropriate their use in our lives to walk victoriously. 

For example, we don’t need more faith, we need to walk in the measure of faith we have been given.

Jesus spoke in Matthew chapter 17:

14  They came to where a large crowd had gathered to wait for Jesus. A man came and knelt before Him

15 and said, “Lord, please show your tender mercy toward my son. He has a demon who afflicts him. He has epilepsy, and he suffers horribly from seizures. He often falls into the cooking fire or into the river.

16 I brought him to Your followers, but they weren’t able to heal him.”

17 Jesus replied, “Where is your faith? Can’t you see how wayward and wrong this generation is? How much longer do I stay with you and put up with your doubts? Bring your son to Me.”

18 Then Jesus rebuked the demon and it came out of him and the boy was instantly healed!

19 Later the disciples came to him privately and asked, “Why couldn’t we cast out the demon?”

20 He told them, “It was because of your lack of (pure) faith. I promise you, if you have faith inside of you no bigger than the size of a small mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move away from here and go over there,’ and you will see it move! There is nothing you couldn’t do!

21 But this kind of demon is cast out only through prayer and fasting.”

Jesus clarified the issue of faith even further in Mark chapter 11:

21  And Peter calling to remembrance saith unto Him, Master, behold, the fig tree which Thou cursed is withered away.

22 And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.

23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.

Unbelief and doubt counteract faith.  The disciples had already been successful in healing sickness and disease but were intimidated when they saw the effects of epilepsy.  They were not prepared for such a sight and allowed themselves to react in their mind.  They had faith but it was impacted by their souls.  Eliminating the soulish response is addressed by prayer and fasting.  The Word will cleanse us of our soulishness as we immerse ourselves in It. 

This is one reason we were led to develop the RENEW app.  Immersion in the Scriptures will bring forth a cleansing effect.  It counteracts the world’s narrative that promotes soulishness.

If you spend more time feeding your soul and less time feeding your spirit, your measure of faith will not operate in its fullness.

You and I are a bridge between the Spiritual and the physical.  Jesus is “seated” and at rest.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Ephesians chapter 1:

3  Every spiritual blessing in the Heavenly realm has already been lavished upon us as a Love gift from our wonderful Heavenly Father, the Father of our Lord Jesus—all because He sees us wrapped into Christ. This is why we celebrate Him with all our hearts!

FATHER imparted all the power and authority we need to walk not only in the same manner as Jesus walked but even in a greater manifestation.  Our spirit man is perfect and full of HIM but we need to bring that power and authority into the physical realm.  It is up to us to bridge the gap.

Jesus spoke in John 4:

14  “but if anyone drinks the living water I give them, they will never thirst again and will be forever satisfied! For when you drink the water I give you it becomes a gushing fountain of the Holy Spirit, springing up and flooding you with endless Life!”

Within us is endless Life and full of Spiritual blessings awaiting the release for others to drink.  John G. Lake of the early 1900’s had over 100,000 confirmed healings in his ministry and closed down a hospital in Spokane, Washington for a period of time.  Should we expect anything less?

Old Testament was based on performance.

New Testament is based on unconditional Love.

If you base your faith and expectation on the Old Testament, you will miss the point of Jesus’ atonement.  As an example, it took 21 days for Daniel to receive an answer but it did not take Jesus any time to heal people.  Jesus needs to be the center of our focus, not Old Testament examples which are based on performance.

I need to release this life on the inside of me.

Since The Holy Spirit is on the inside of me then fruit of The Spirit is already inside of me.

Our spirit is complete and perfected IN HIM.

We have no inadequacy.  Our minds must be renewed to fully access this Truth.

The Beloved Disciple wrote in 1^st  John 4:

17  By living in God, Love has been brought to Its full expression in us so that we may fearlessly face the day of judgment, because all that Jesus now is, so are we in this world.

And Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit 1^st Corinthians 6:

17 But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.

Since we are “one” with Jesus, we must not let unbelief hinder our expectation of manifestation.  Some preachers have misled many in the past by promoting a message of unworthiness resulting in unbelief of what Paul wrote in Ephesians chapter 1: I can do all things through Christ Who strengthens me.

James reinforced the Truth when he wrote by The Holy Spirit in his epistle in chapter 1:

25  But those who set their gaze deeply into the perfecting law of liberty are fascinated by and respond to the Truth they hear and are strengthened by It—they experience God’s blessing in all that they do!

Faith is responding to what FATHER and Jesus has already done.

The physical realm does not fully reflect the spiritual realm because men are not fully led by THE SPIRIT.  As we gaze deeply into The Spirit and respond to the Truth, we will be strengthened and be the “bridge” we are intended to be.

It is time to receive the revelation of what has already done and been deposited in us by FATHER.  Why do you think HE and Jesus are “seated” and at rest?

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Ephesians chapter 1:

3 Every Spiritual blessing in the Heavenly realm has already been lavished upon us as a Love gift from our wonderful Heavenly Father, the Father of our Lord Jesus—all because He sees us wrapped into Christ. This is why we celebrate Him with all our hearts!

Are you walking in Spiritual blessing on a daily basis?  Instead, are you asking for Spiritual blessing to come forth?

Jesus spoke in John 6:

35  And Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger, and he who believes in Me shall never thirst.

Why did Jesus say “never”?

This is because we already have these Spiritual blessings within us once we are born again.  The victorious Son or Daughter is not seeking victory but is enforcing victory which has already been won by Christ Jesus.

The problem with focusing on the Old Testament versus the New Testament is that much of the Old Testament spoke of what FATHER was going to do whereas Paul is now sharing the direct revelation of what has been done by Jesus Christ by Hiis atonement.

Peter wrote by this revelation in 1^st Peter chapter 2:

24  who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness—by whose stripes you were healed.

Are healing occurred when Jesus was raised from the dead and that Spiritual blessing resides on the inside of us now so we don’t need to ask FATHER to heal us, HE has already given us that Spiritual blessing as well as others which are required for our walk.

It is vital that we grasp this revelation.  We don’t need to keep asking for healing, prosperity, etc. when those blessings are already deposited in us.

Peter received this revelation when Jesus appeared to him and the other disciples after His resurrection when He taught them concerning the Kingdom of God for forty days.

How do we know?

It is written by The Holy Spirit in Acts chapter 3:

1 Now Peter and John went up together to the temple at the hour of prayer, the ninth hour.

2 And a certain man lame from his mother’s womb was carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful, to ask alms from those who entered the temple;

3 who, seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple, asked for alms.

4 And fixing his eyes on him, with John, Peter said, “Look at us.”

5 So he gave them his attention, expecting to receive something from them.

They looked at the man and saw that he had faith to receive “something”.

6 Then Peter said, “Silver and gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you: In the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk.”

7 And he took him by the right hand and lifted him up, and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength.

8 So he, leaping up, stood and walked and entered the temple with them—walking, leaping, and praising God.

9 And all the people saw him walking and praising God. 10 Then they knew that it was he who sat begging alms at the Beautiful Gate of the temple; and they were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him.

Peter knew he already had Spiritual blessings which could be used to heal the man.  He didn’t pray asking FATHER to heal the man.  Instead, he drew on what was already deposited in him.

We need to walk in the fullness of this revelation.

Guess who these kids are:

Would you rather live according to justice or in a legal system where the participants can manipulate situations according to their agenda?

Jesus spoke in John chapter 5:

30 “Nothing I do is from My own initiative, for as I hear the judgment passed by My Father, I execute judgment. And My judgments will be perfect, because I can do nothing on My own, except to fulfill the desires of My Father Who sent Me.”

All the Words and actions of Jesus expressed Truth.  The words and actions of the world are derived from their father, the devil.  This is why there is a legal system which is not solely based on the Truth.  Lies and manipulation allow the shrewd, nefarious ones to obtain their desired outcome.

Is a currency which is not backed by hard assets a true measurement of value?  No.

Are searches based on lies, especially hidden, an act of Truth?  No.

Are those who enter a country illegally promoting Truth?  No.

Are campaign promises which are never fulfilled representing Truth?  No.

Are hidden agendas intending to start war promoting Truth?  No.

Are laws passed to further enslave the population promoting the Truth from Above?  No.

FATHER knows the hidden intent of men’s hearts and will evoke righteous judgment based solely on Truth!

What other book throughout history has the certainty and life-changing attributes surrounding it?  None!

Peter wrote by The Holy Spirit in 2^nd Peter chapter 1:

15 Moreover I will be careful to ensure that you always have a reminder of these things after my decease.

16 For we did not follow cunningly devised fables when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of His majesty.

17 For He received from God the Father honor and glory when such a Voice came to Him from the Excellent Glory: “This is My beloved Son, in Whom I am well pleased.”

18 And we heard this Voice which came from Heaven when we were with Him on the Holy mountain.

19 And so we have the prophetic Word confirmed, which you do well to heed as a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts;

20 knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private interpretation,

21 for prophecy never came by the will of man, but Holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit.

As Peter testified, so can I.

After I was baptized in The Holy Spirit in 1971, my life and outlook changed immediately.  My priorities changed and I no longer wanted what had previously been a priority.  I had a heart change due to The Word.  I had read many books but none had such an effect.  The Word had power then and It does now.

I began to hear FATHER speak to me whether you would call It a Word of knowledge or a prophetic Word.  HE led me to my first career-oriented job which fulfilled the need I had at the time.  HE directed me to every position in the business world even though I did not fully understand the path at the time.

HE sent prophets to me which was encouraging just when I needed it.

HE protected me from the adversary’s attempt to lead me to destruction.

HE delivered me from death five times.

Why did HE do this for me?  HE knew my heart towards HIM.  I am sure many of you have similar testimonies, some may not be as obvious as others yet here we are.

HIS Word is alive and is life-changing to those who will embrace It.  No other “book” can make such claims for they are simply man’s perspectives and opinions based on their limited knowledge.  HIS Book is based on unchanging, everlasting Truth.  This is why I focus on It versus any other source.  I trust you are doing the same.

Truth will protect you when then the lies manifest themselves to harm you and me.

It is vital that we keep Psalm 91 before us in these times.  Truth abides under the Shadow of The Almighty! This is one reason FATHER had me include it in our new RENEW app.

The Holy Spirit recorded in Psalms chapter 91:

1  When you sit enthroned under the Shadow of Shaddai, you are hidden in the strength of God Most High.

2 He’s the hope that holds me and the Stronghold to shelter me, the only God for me, and my great confidence.

3 He will rescue you from every hidden trap of the enemy, and He will protect you from false accusation and any deadly curse.

4 His Massive Arms are wrapped around you, protecting you. You can run under His Covering of Majesty and hide. His Arms of faithfulness are a Shield keeping you from harm.

5 You will never worry about an attack of demonic forces at night nor have to fear a spirit of darkness coming against you.

6 Don’t fear a thing! Whether by night or by day, demonic danger will not trouble you, nor will the powers of evil launched against you.

7 Even in a time of disaster, with thousands and thousands being killed, you will remain unscathed and unharmed.

8 you will be a spectator as the wicked perish in judgment, for they will be paid back for what they have done!

9-10  When we live our lives within the shadow of God Most High, our Secret Hiding Place, we will always be shielded from harm. How then could evil prevail against us or disease infect us?

11 God sends angels with special orders to protect you wherever you go, defending you from all harm.

12 If you walk into a trap, they’ll be there for you and keep you from stumbling.

13 You’ll even walk unharmed among the fiercest powers of darkness, trampling every one of them beneath your feet!

14 For here is what the Lord has spoken to me: “Because you have delighted in Me as My great Lover, I will greatly protect you. I will set you in a high place, safe and secure before My Face.

15 I will answer your cry for help every time you pray, and you will find and feel My Presence even in your time of pressure and trouble. I will be your glorious Hero and give you a feast.

16 You will be satisfied with a full life and with all that I do for you. For you will enjoy the fullness of My salvation!”

We have been working on an app for you to be able to listen/read Scriptures by topic. How committed are Believers in renewing their minds? We will get an idea once we roll out this application which began development at the beginning of the year. We currently have the “beta” version operational and available on a limited basis. If you are interested in using this initial release, email me at unity153@gmail.com and I will set you up with a userid and password.

I have been listening to these topics on my phone, tablet, and PC. The current issue with the phone is if you have spotty Internet while you are driving, it will stop playing. We are working on a solution to overcome this issue. This app is platform neutral which means you don’t have to buy a specific device to use it.

Each topic has several verses that cycle through. In addition, you can “autoplay” multiple topics in the order you choose. When I am resting, I use this feature to play Love then Faith, then Healing. I can change these options any time based on what I need.

Think about it… this simply app will allow people all over the world to listen and/or read specific Scriptures based on need. Renewing the mind is all about immersion. The opposition uses immersion by constantly bombarding us with their narrative. Isn’t it time to be immersed in the Truth?

The following are a couple of screenshots from a smartphone to provide you some perspective:

This is another way we can spread the Good News around the world… without anyone’s opinion. We will be adding topics as The Holy Spirit directs us.
