An Architecture for Peace

Ringling Mansion: Sarasota Florida

 

 

We each make a choice of how we walk through our lives. Although many shades of gray between each exist, I see two predominant paths.

We run on our own steam, driving by discipline, strength of character, the most recent seven strategies for success; defining our personal philosophy about how things actually work and what it takes to get where we want to be.

Or we walk with God, guided by his Word, his way and revealed will. Our steps integrated by the winds- the ebb and flow of the Spirit of the Living God- His presence.

The message of the Bible is: we are being lead from bondage and slavery- to freedom and peace-it is defined as a place. A spiritual and natural place: The Promised Land! I have long sought this place and am finding my way into it, now building the fences and walls to keep me safely home!

What are the boundaries and boarders (the walls) that define the Kingdom of YeHoVaH?

  1. Trust in Yahh’s provisions: He knows our needs; Provides for our way. He establishes our place. We can and must trust Him before all that comes before us.
  2. Rest in Him: He fights our battles; Prepares us for them. He trains our hands for war. Nothing befalls us that is not common to to man and we only get the battles we need to prepare us for the next challenge on our way. We have a trainer. The Messiah has over come every adversary known to man rest in his victory-He will bring it about!
  3. Resist and Reject the Lies of the Adversary: The lies that contend with or diminish our life and vitality. Resist the attempts to delay or deny the revelation and actualization of resting and trusting in the reality and provision of God. We have an adversary it is disbelief =dis-be live.
  4. Obey that still small voice: Respond and act in the Word and within the timing of the Spirit.
  5. Repent and Redirect back onto the Path of Trust. Resist the Adversary by obeying tho Word and Spirit. If you slip up simply get up and turn– head back in the right direction. Leave the doubt, fear or disbelief and engage with his Presence. It is available always.
