Consider and hold fast
(some thoughts from Hebrews)
.......................................................................................................................
It's important to consider our Savior and who we are already in Him. Have rest in Him. Your five senses will lie but God's promises will never. Have also boldness to come to the throne. You are not sinners but holy brethren to Jesus. You are not failures but overcomers. Your bodies not a house of sin but the house of Holy God.You are not trying to reach that condition but you have been made like this 2000 years ago when Christ sat down on right hand of the Majesty on high. Only consider Our Apostle and High Priest who He is for us and who we are in Him every moment. Only hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing to the end. Alleluiah!

" But now having been set free from sin, and having become slaves of God, you have your fruit to holiness…"
Praise God! I was told that I am a sinner, that I am programmed for failure and that all my effort and fruit is bad. But that was a lie from Satan because the Truth says I have "been set free from sin". It's all new, supernatural, I am perfect for God's service and His will and it's not difficult. Fruit will be good and holy. When? Now. Don't wait for the new body but act now "as being alive from the dead" (Rom. 6:13). God "calls those things which do not exist as though they did"(Rom 4:17). Yes it's grace, simply by faith.
Ignore your feelings or experiences, that's what the Truth of God says. It cannot be otherwise or God will be a liar. Walk by faith. Reckon yourself this way, consider (Rom 6:11). Know who you are in Christ. Serve our Holy God without fear and fight spiritual battles with the shout of victory. Never grow weary. Jesus never did. And we will not, because we have His righteousness, and we have His access to the Father. We have His life in us. We will do the same works and even greater (John 14:12). We have now power in prayer and proclaiming the Word and power in doing God's will. There's so much one can do if he is set free from sin. Amazing grace through simple faith! Praise God! Praise God!
