Are You Grounded in Reality?
Dearly beloved of God, after we are born again of God’s spirit we must bring our minds in alignment with God’s divine nature that is born within us. God gave us great and precious promises so that we could become partakers of His divine nature. This is the reality.
The divine nature does not change our minds for us; we must change our own minds. It is our responsibility to feed our minds with information from the Word of God. The process of renewing our minds is what grounds us in the reality that is born within us.
Beloved, now we are the sons of God; do we think about ourselves this way, or does the old thinking of the flesh dominate our thinking processes? We must put on the mind of Christ if we are to be grounded in reality.
We have the spirit of Him that raised Jesus from the dead dwelling in us, power from on high. Do you think according to the reality dwelling in you when confronted with a situation that requires you to manifest this power? Do you have boldness and confidence that reflects the power born within you?
In Christ, we are the righteousness of God, redeemed, sanctified, holy and without blame before our Father, and unimpeachable in His sight. We are dearly beloved and highly favored in Christ by the Father. Do you approach the throne of grace with the certainty of this mind set?
“Do not be fashioned by this age, but be transfigured by the renewing of the mind so that you may prove what is the good and well-pleasing and mature will of God.”
If we will bring our thinking in alignment and harmony with the divine nature born within us, manifesting the power of God in our lives will become the norm. Living the love of God will become our rule. Giving will become standard operating procedure. Signs, miracles, and wonders will become common place. We are living epistles of Christ in ones; that is reality.
Our Father delivered us from the power of darkness, and He gave us citizenship in the kingdom of His beloved Son. In his kingdom we are one with him, members of His body. We are as he is, complete in him, filled to the full with all he accomplished; the Father freely gives us all things with Christ. Are we renewing our minds to this reality? Does our attitude reflect the reality of the divine nature within us? Do we tackle our challenges with this mind set?
Beloved, we ought to think of ourselves as citizens of the heavenly realm because we are. We must get to the place that the Word of God has absolute preeminence in our thinking and believing. We must get to the place that we do not have a single doubt about who we are in Christ, nor of the power that dwells in us. It is Christ in us; that is the reality. When we align our thinking with the reality of the divine nature within us, it activates the power of God in our lives.
Christ Jesus the Lord is the vine and we are his branches. Without him we can do nothing; with him we can do all things through Christ that strengthens us.
The key to manifesting the exceeding greatness of His power toward us is to bring our thinking in alignment and harmony with the reality of the divine nature that God created in us. We are God’s workmanship created in Christ Jesus. We ought to think and walk in this reality.
Dearly loved ones, the reality is that you are who God says you are, so say what the Word of God says. Think what the Word says to think, believe what the Word says we are to believe, act on what the Word says. Be grounded in the reality of who you are in Christ and think accordingly.
Dearly beloved, align your thinking with the reality He created within you; that’s the key to activating the power of the divine nature within you, dearly beloved.
