When you look into a mirror it reflects exactly what looked into it. When we look into a mirror we see ourselves. This is true in the physical world but what do we see in that mirror in the spiritual?
When we look past the physical attributes and look at our heart, soul and mind. Who are we really and where are those beautiful eyes looking? The eyes are the window to the soul. Where ever our eye is focused that is where the heart and soul is. If our eyes are focused on this world and what it has to offer then so shall our heart and soul desire the things of this world. Jesus tells us:
John 8:23
And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world.
John 12;25
He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal.
Believe it or not the spiritual realm is very real, more real than the world we see around us in the sense that this world will pass away. The spiritual world never passes away..........in fact the spiritual world is where our LORD JESUS CHRIST resides and HE provides a way for us to come home.
Matthew 24:35
Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.
Luke 21:32
Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, till all be fulfilled.
We are this generation my brothers and sisters!!!
2 Peter 3:10
But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
John 3:31
He that cometh from above is above all: he that is of the earth is earthly, and speaketh of the earth: he that cometh from heaven is above all.
Job 34:21-22
For his eyes are upon the ways of man, and he seeth all his goings.
There is no darkness, nor shadow of death, where the workers of iniquity may hide themselves.
In the book of Job there is a wondrous encounter between GOD and his servant Job. Much is revealed from GOD for us. Consider a taste of the wonders of our GOD.
Job 37:14-18
Hearken unto this, O Job: stand still, and consider the wondrous works of God.
Dost thou know when God disposed them, and caused the light of his cloud to shine?
Dost thou know the balancings of the clouds, the wondrous works of him which is perfect in knowledge?
How thy garments are warm, when he quieteth the earth by the south wind?
Hast thou with him spread out the sky, which is strong, and as a molten looking glass?
A molten looking glass, a flowing living mirror.
When the LORD JESUS comes to get HIS people from this earth what will HE see in your eyes?
Will he see a reflection of HIMSELF or will HE say:
Matthew 7:23
And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
Matthew 25:41
Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:
Luke 13:27
But he shall say, I tell you, I know you not whence ye are; depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity.
The very desires of your heart and soul right now....right this minute, in this life, every single day.
What is most important? Are we living for the desires of our flesh or are we looking for higher ground in which the Spirit of Truth resides.
Eph 2:3
Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.
But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,
Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)
And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:
That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.
We will reap that which we sow. Everyday, all day long are we sowing seeds of holiness and righteousness for the Glory of GOD? What do our brothers and sisters see in us?? Most importantly what does GOD see in us??
Hosea 10:12
Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy; break up your fallow ground: for it is time to seek the LORD, till he come and rain righteousness upon you.
2Cor 9:6
But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully.
Oh Beloved, let ME love them thru you. Let us let GOD flow thru us to the world. Surrender ourselves to HIM. HIS GODliness will flow forever with or without us.
Gal 6:7-9
Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.
And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.
Rev 14:15
And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to him that sat on the cloud, Thrust in thy sickle, and reap: for the time is come for thee to reap; for the harvest of the earth is ripe.
We have been and are walking up the Mountain of GOD. Our lives are this purpose. It has created a path and the more times we have traveled up and the higher we have gone the more the path is formed and visible. The hard rock is eroding away as we breathe in the spirit of our LORD. As time passes and many, many trips are undertaken a crevice is formed and creates a river of Living Waters.
Jer 2:13
For my people have committed two evils; they have forsaken me the fountain of living waters, and hewed them out cisterns, broken cisterns, that can hold no water.
Jer 17:13
O LORD, the hope of Israel, all that forsake thee shall be ashamed, and they that depart from me shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the LORD, the fountain of living waters.
Rev 22:1-2
And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.
In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
Praise you Father, all glory and honor are yours!!! Thank you for first loving us.
Let your Living Waters flow and as Jesus prayed for Peter;
But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.
Increase our faith Lord and give us the boldness and courage to stand and help our brethren.
Phl 1:20
According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death.
1 John 4:17
Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world.
In JESUS HOLY name we pray...
Thank you for listening, May the LORD Bless with understanding
