Everyday is a Learning Day.
Every day is a learning day, trying to grasp all that God has instored can be overwhelming. God reminds me; "Be still"! He reminded me in todays scripture lesson. James 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
I came across a twitter comment that sort of left me confused, by John Piper, 1 Corinthians 12:3 "No one can say 'Jesus is Lord' except in the Holy Spirit." Christianity at its core is supernatural. Ephesian 6:10 answers that question and I am no longer dumbfounded or confused,"Finally, be strong in the Lord, and in the strength of his might.
6:11: Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
6:12: For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world's rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.
6:13: Therefore, put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and, having done all, to stand.
6:14: Stand therefore, having the utility belt of truth buckled around your waist, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness,
6:15: and having fitted your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
6:16: above all, taking up the shield of faith, with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the evil one.
6:17: And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God;
6:18: with all prayer and requests, praying at all times in the Spirit, and being watchful to this end in all perseverance and requests for all the saints:
6:19: on my behalf, that utterance may be given to me in opening my mouth, to make known with boldness the mystery of the gospel,
I am not a theologian, or a pastor, I am but a mere child who is seeking to learn and grow in my spiritual walk with God. I notice how much of a change has taken place. Often times situation involving a person, prayers to change them would be my constant. God reminded the need to take a different look at the situation. The ultimate goal, striving for eternal life. To Change is to except the truth to see others as God sees us, to love and pray for them. Thank You Lord Jesus for loving me, for teaching me, most of all for dying for my sins. In Jesus name Amen.
