John 1
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.2 The same was in the beginning with God.3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men.5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.
6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.7 The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe.8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.9 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not.12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth....I have thoughts on this.The word was with God,the word was God.I Love this,the word being God.Men were and have become dark,they have become lovers of themselves as foretold they will become.John writing this sees that to become more of God we need to renew our minds:
Ephesians 4:23 KJV
And be renewed in the spirit of your mind;Ever asked just how do I do this?How can I renew my mind daily?Wake up,pray to God ask him to help you in this,read THE WORD...Next clean your heart.How do I clean my heart?:
Psalm 51:10 KJV
Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.Seems that these two go hand in hand.I have heard that the mind will receive,it will process,it will rationalize,it will compromise,it will help you talk your self out of a sure blessing if you let it.So we renew our minds,we ask God to create a CLEAN HEART.Purrge your hearts unto God,repent,have a sin in your life?Get rid of it,it will cloud your mind,it will ''clutter'' your heart.Starting ones day with God's word will help us all,it will renew our minds it will clean our heart(s)it will help us to become more of the word.I have asked this,just a thought.Above it says the word became flesh and dwelt among us.Now,what if we are to become the word and dwell among God.Being in the word will help one here,reading medidtating on his word will help us here,not religion,not being the ''teacher''or serving so much you have placed yourself so thin that you fall ill.But just slowing down reading what God wants you to do.Do we walk with Jesus daily?or have we placed him in the box..So we have trouble we crank up the ''God in the Box''
We cannot be like this,God is not like that with us is he?I say we get back to basics in the following:Read the word,become more like God,worship God,we do not have to be in church to worship God.I am not saying do not go to church for we are not to forsake the assembly of others.Bur we are to praise him.In all things God's word says we are to do.Having a bad day?praise him,having a great day,praise him,having just an average day?PRAISE HIM.Sing a song to God.I have heard this that a small pebble or grain of sand can stop up a cog and make a machine stop.The devil giving you a fitful day?Sing the most simplest of songs and see what hjappens.We all know it''Jesus loves me this I know,for the bible tells me so..''It works,resist the devil and he will flee form you.Read the word,call the enemy out,don't be afraid of what he thinks he can do,remind him of what GOD can do,what GOD will do,what GOD has done.So again I ask,if we become more of the WORD will we be walking more with GOD?Yes we will I have heard it explained this way.Less Bible less God,More bible MORE GOD.Father in heaven we have seen that we are to become more of your word,more like you you have said we are to be Holy for you are Holy,help us Lord,that we will become more like you,more with you,father we fail on a daily basis we try we stumble,we try to be better,open our minds and eye to see,open our hearts that we will plant your word deep down,placed in our hearts were it will grow,help us to make our lives clutter free.Make our minds re newed,father we praise you for your word,we thank you for your word,we thank you Lord Jesus for carrying all our sins to the cross,and shedding your blood that we may be made clean'God in heave I praise you for today,let us all be in praise,prayer,may we all lift each other up today Lord Jesus,we thank you for all your blessings great and small.Amen
