Christianity is primarily not a religion of doctrine; it is a religion of relationships!

Religion is the relationship between humans and what they consider to be Sacred, Holy, Spiritual, or Divine.

Relationship is what The Holy Spirit is emphasizing by every means possible.  You can be totally right in all your doctrines and totally wrong in all your relationships.

Peter wrote by The Holy Spirit in 1^st Peter chapter 3:

8 Now, this is the goal: to live in harmony with one another and demonstrate affectionate Love, sympathy, and kindness toward other believers. Let humility describe who you are as you dearly Love one another.

9 Never retaliate when someone treats you wrongly, nor insult those who insult you, but instead, respond by speaking a blessing over them—because a blessing is what God promised to give you.

10 For the Scriptures tell us: Whoever wants to embrace true Life and find beauty in each day

11 must stop speaking evil, hurtful words and never deceive in what they say. Always turn from what is wrong and cultivate what is good; eagerly pursue peace in every relationship, making it your prize.

12 For the Eyes of the Lord YAHWEH rest upon the Godly, and His Heart responds to their prayers. But He turns His Back on those who practice evil.

The above passage reiterated what was conveyed by The Holy Spirit in Psalm chapter 34:

12 Do you want to live a long, good life, enjoying the beauty that fills each day? Then never speak a lie or allow wicked words to come from your mouth.

14 Keep turning your back on every sin, and make “peace” your life motto. Practice being at peace with everyone.

15 The Lord sees all we do; He watches over His friends day and night. His Godly ones receive the answers they seek whenever they cry out to Him.

16 But the Lord has made up His Mind to oppose evildoers and to wipe out even the memory of them from the face of the earth.

A symphony requires a conductor (The Holy Spirit), a musical score (The Word of GOD) and a group of musicians who are playing in one accord and in harmony with each other (believers).  The result is a pleasant and desirable result.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in 1^st Timothy chapter 2:

1 Most of all, I’m writing to encourage you to pray with gratitude to God. Pray for all men with all forms of prayers and requests as you intercede with intense passion.

2 And pray for every political leader and representative, so that we would be able to live tranquil, undisturbed lives, as we worship the awe-inspiring God with pure hearts.

3 It is pleasing to our Savior-God to pray for them.

4 He longs for everyone to embrace His Life and return to the full knowledge of the Truth.

Who are we to pray for as a high priority?  Political leaders and representatives!  What is the expected result?  That we would be able to live tranquil, undisturbed lives, as we worship the awe-inspiring God with pure hearts.

We should include this priority in our daily prayer time.  The new administration coming to power of January 20^th, 2025, has its highest priority, to promote peace, lawfulness, honesty, and prosperity.  This is the definition of good government.

Those who oppose these mandates will be dealt with in the appropriate fashion.  Warmongers, the lawless, and those who have compromised the health of the nation for money, will be removed from their positions of power. 

We need to take Paul’s encouragement seriously!  Prayer in the spiritual realm will impact the physical realm.

The ekklesia is in the world to demonstrate the victory Jesus achieved at the cross and resurrection!

These Words of Jesus are vital to be embraced for us to demonstrate the power and authority given to us by Jesus Himself.

As written yesterday-

Jesus spoke in Matthew chapter 28:

18  And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth (nothing is left out).

And in John chapter 20:

21 So Jesus said to them again, “Peace to you! As the Father has sent Me, I also send you.“

Sadly, my internal development has been lacking.  When I look back, I was too focused on other matters which resulted in slower spiritual development.  My priorities were not fully in line with the commands of Jesus.  As a result, I have had inconsistent success in the critical areas.  Thankfully, FATHER’S grace and mercy prevailed in my life.

Any and all rebellious thoughts must be brought into captivity.  Our thought life must be brought into captivity to the obedience of Christ.  Deep down, I know that The Holy Spirit wants us to walk in complete victory in all areas, especially in the area of healing the sick.  Today’s society views the source of healing to be found by use of pharmaceuticals rather than by the laying on of hands of those operating in The Holy Spirit.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in 2^nd Corinthians chapter 10:

3 For although we live in the natural realm, we don’t wage a military campaign employing human weapons, using manipulation to achieve our aims. Instead, our spiritual weapons are energized with Divine power to effectively dismantle the defenses behind which people hide.

5 We can demolish every deceptive fantasy that opposes God and break through every arrogant attitude that is raised up in defiance of the true knowledge of God.

We capture, like prisoners of war, every thought and insist that it bow in obedience to the Anointed One.

We must break through the veil separating the spiritual realm from the carnal realm.  The adversary wants to redirect our focus away from the spiritual realm for he knows that once we pierce that spiritual realm where victory resides, he has lost the battle with us as individuals. 

Every believer has been given the power and authority by Jesus, not just a few selected ones.  Each of us needs to quit belittling ourselves thinking we are not worthy of walking in such power based on the past.  WE ARE new creations in Christ Jesus!  Overcomers, by definition, must overcome the ploys of the devil.

What weapons do we have available?  Prayer, fasting, praise, testimony, preaching, and the gifts of The Holy Spirit.

Jesus instructed us in Matthew chapter 18:

18 “Assuredly (receive this Eternal Truth), I say to you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.

19 “Again I say to you that if two of you agree on earth concerning anything that they ask, it will be done for them by My Father in Heaven.

20 For where two or three are gathered together in My Name, I am there in the midst of them.”

In these verses are contained all the power for anything you ever want done.  When two or three have been led together (by The Holy Spirit) into My Name, there am I in the midst.

Consider what Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Romans chapter 8:

14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are Sons of God.

Does Our Father respond to the Words of His Sons?  Absolutely!   We cannot leave out The Holy Spirit in any Christian activity.  Sons and Daughters must gather around the Name of Jesus Christ in this dispensation.  HIS Name is where the power and authority resides.  This is why the world does not want His Name mentioned at all!
