2 Corinthians 4: 4 – 9
4 The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel of the glory (the divine nature of God the Father) of Christ, who is the image of God (the Father). 5 For we do not proclaim ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, and ourselves as “your” servants for Jesus’ sake. 6 For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” made His light (illumination of divine truth) shine in our hearts to give us the light (illumination of divine truth) of the knowledge of the glory of God (His divine nature) in the face (the expression of His Son) of Jesus Christ.
7 Now we have this treasure (the divine nature of the Father) in jars of clay to show that this surpassingly great power is from God and not us.
8 We are hard pressed on all sides, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; 9 persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, down but not destroyed.
Political divide, racial tension, economic inequality, murder, corruption, deception, and grasping for the illusion of power are being seen and experienced in our world in real time.
Many are feeling betrayed by the entities and powers that be, that are supposed to protect and serve by providing a better way of life, but instead have offered a bitter cup of doubt, confusion and hopelessness.
We are in an hour where intense fear, anxiety, and fainting of hearts caused by global distress, catastrophic events, and uncertainty of the future has gripped the hearts and minds of many.
The minds of unbelievers, (those who are not yet Spiritually birthed as well as those who are Spiritually birthed but do not know who they are as the Spiritual Son of God), have been blinded by the great illusionist, fear.
This great illusionist, “fear”, has kept many in bondage to the original flesh identity, keeping them from perceiving the good news of Spiritual equality with God the Father through Spiritual birth.
The world is getting darker and darker, but the TRUE LIGHT that is revealed in the Father’s Spiritual Sons is getting brighter and brighter! PRAISE BE TO THE FATHER!
Today’s message is a message of encouragement and standing in faith. Not from the perspective of man-made religion — “trust God and speak life into your situations”, nor from the perspective of the world — “continue to fight for truth, justice and equality in order to make the world a better place.”
Because of lack of and/or incomplete knowledge of faith, many do not understand what the deeper meaning of “standing in faith” implies. And because of this lack of knowledge and understanding they hijack other people’s faith and try to make it their own, and are frustrated when things don’t work out the way they expect.
Today, we will explore what “standing in faith” looks like Spiritually and I trust the Father that revelation knowledge and understanding will come forth in His power and might.
Be encouraged, “stand in faith, and remain firm in the truth God has given to you.”
