Living His Word

He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him. — 2 Corinthians 5:21

Did you know that those who are in Christ Jesus are righteous? The Apostle Paul says that we are "the righteousness of God." Some may have a problem accepting this, because they are well aware of the sin that remains in their lives. Nevertheless, from God's perspective they too are righteous.

The reason for this is that our acceptance of Jesus as Lord and Savior effectuated an exchange. He became sin for us, while we became His righteousness. The greatest deal there ever has been or ever will be. Although Jesus led a perfectly righteous life, He paid the penalty for our sin by suffering and dying on the cross. In contrast, we are defiled and depraved, but in Him we are treated as the very righteousness of God.

To be righteous means to be blameless before God's moral standards. To be wicked, of course, means the exact opposite. Due to our wickedness, there was no hope of us ever achieving on our own the standing of righteousness before God. The standards are too high and we are too low. The good news is that righteousness is possible for us through our acceptance of what Jesus did on the cross. As a result, one day we will stand before God and He will not see our wickedness, but only Christ's perfection.

It is important that we accept this truth. Failure to fully accept it implicitly implies that somehow we must achieve a righteousness of our own. It is also important for our own well-being. Thinking we must somehow live up to a standard we can't live up to is a heavy burden to bear. It is also important for our relationships to others. Expecting others to live up to unachievable standards can lead us into judgmental attitudes toward them.

Let the peace and comfort that comes from the acceptance of this biblical teaching sink deep into your soul. Let it define you, for you truly are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus.

Consider This: Sometimes, the Best Arguments Have No Words

The eyewitnesses who saw Jesus provided evidence about who he was. When you look closely at what they said, it makes a pretty compelling case. “For consider him [Jesus] that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds.” (Hebrews 12:3 KJV) The uniqueness of Jesus is often overlooked, believe it or not. His parables and teachings have a timeless…

God made Jesus to be sin, for us, for me, for you!

Righteousness is our big win, because our God is true!

Demons, devils, all the same. They will leave in Jesus’ Name!

Through the Holy Spirit’s pow’r, cast them out this very hour!

Stare Yourself Deaf | Eric Gilmour [2 Corinthians 13:5]

The more attention we give to JESUS the higher HE will become in our lives—if you look at Acts 1 this is the ascension of JESUS.

Though this physically took place, HE actually ascended in front of them. There is a spiritual implication, I believe we can pull from this for our daily lives

v.9 it says that after HE had said these things, HE's lifted up while they were looking at HIM. They were looking at HIM & HE was lifted up..

HE was lifted up while they were look -ing at HIM, I'm trying to tell you that as we keep our attention & our gaze

fixed upon CHRIST, HE will rise higher & higher & higher in our lives higher than all the things around us

higher than all the things going on in our government or in our nation— higher than ourselves & others..

This is what is the greatest need is

for CHRIST to be above everything else including ourselves in our hearts

• we don't trust ourselves for guidance • we don't trust ourselves for obedience • we don't obey ourselves

We let CHRIST be lifted higher than us & others

This is happening in the heart that continually looks unto JESUS. Moses endured seeing HIM WHO was unseen.

1.] Focus on JESUS, HE becomes Supreme

So number one JESUS is lifted by staring at HIM, the LORD said to me a couple months back, HE said stare yourself deaf.

I didn't know that a tumult & a torrential downpour of voices from the enemy would come to me & surround me.

it felt like they were in me & above me & around me—I didn't even know that was coming. But JESUS said before this enemy voice attack in my life,

HE said stare yourself deaf

We can look at JESUS so intently that we can't hear the voice of the enemy, and I would say also—the more we remove our attention from the LORD JESUS, the more we will hear the voice of the enemy

And as David says

My soul is restless because of the voice of the enemies. Let us stare ourselves deaf — this means giving CHRIST the highest place above everything.

That's going on everybody, around us & express it & especially above ourselves that's the one because the presence of GOD is experienced by those who are not focused on themselves!

In other words, consciousness of GOD's presence

Praise GOD! Consciousness of GOD's presence comes when we're no longer conscious of our -selves

—we forget ourselves that we might see HIM, oh in order for the bride to come out of herself—she must forget herself

O looking unto JESUS

2.] Long For HIS Return

But look what happens next v.10 & as they were gazing intently at the LORD—as they are gazing intently, they hear of the 2nd coming.

The Angels say,

“This JESUS, WHOM has been taken up into Heaven will come just in the same way as you've watched HIM go.”

In other words, they receive a revelation of the coming of the LORD by staring at the LORD!

I want to submit to you that the more intently we gaze upon CHRIST—not only will HE be lifted higher than everything else in ourselves

—but also we will feel HIS second coming!

Maranatha pumps through the veins of those who stare at the KING, if the KING has all our attention then we expect anticipate & long for HIS coming! Praise GOD!

3.] Union with CHRIST Intercede for Others

Lastly v.14 when they return home from gazing intently upon the LORD, it says they continually devoted themselves to prayer!

They continually devoted themselves to prayer

So I feel like the life of prayer

a life that is bathed in prayer literally overwhelmed in unbroken conscious union with the LORD & soaking other things in prayer whatever we do

we're doing it all with thanksgiving unto the LORD & offering it to the LORD & bathing everything in prayer

it comes from a heart set & fixed upon the MAN CHRIST JESUS & feeling the fact that HE is returning

............................................................................. I would say that we are not a people of prayer to the degree we don't recognize HE's returning &

we are not a people of prayer to the degree HE's not lifted above everything around us & ourselves by gazing intently at HIM. .............................................................................

Those who pray are the ones who are looking unto JESUS, is in the life of prayer.

I've defined prayer often as conscious union just literally conscious of my union with HIM established by HIM, sustained by HIM.

I read in valley vision this morning that HIS work is everything--mine is to cling to HIM WHO is everything..

So all this to say:

if we will look unto JESUS & stay fixed steady staring, we will stare ourselves deaf! HE will be lifted high above all other things

We will feel & tremble with the expectation & anticipation of the return of the LORD & this'll make us a people of prayer!

Yes communion with GOD first & communion with GOD is the heart but also intercession praying for those that GOD has entrusted to us--it's just the highest delight!

I've often said that the essence of intercession is when the tears of CHRIST in Heaven come through my eyes on the Earth

or when the voice of the great intercessor in Heaven is echoed in the Earth by our lips!!!

4.] Closing Prayer

So FATHER thank YOU so much for the simplicity of this--that we can look unto JESUS & be saved & live in salvation & experience this wonderful & glorious salvation!

I praise YOU LORD!

I pray LORD, that YOU do something fresh; & every viewer show us where our gaze has been deviated or inconsistent & LORD show us the liberty & joy & peace & fulfillment that comes from just looking at YOU!

In YOUR precious Name, amen

P.S. You know one more thing just popped up in my mind in 2 Corinthians 13, Paul says this amazing thing he says examine yourselves!

to see if you're in the faith, he's literally just said you can look on the inside & see whether or not you are born again.

He says right here in v.5 test yourselves to see if you were in the faith, examine yourself..

• think & look at your own life • look at your internals • look at what you are

Then he says this or do you not recognize this about yourself that JESUS CHRIST is in you. He is showing us that the evidence of having been born again is the recognition of CHRIST's Presence!

O the recognition of CHRIST's presence that is not only salvation itself because HE saved us from a life apart from HIMSELF,

But it is HIM WHO is salvation!

possessed

This is something that is perceived, we perceive our possession of HIM WHO gave HIMSELF to us that is the evidence & the anchor of our faith.

The MAN CHRIST JESUS, not just theologically but actually! Praise GOD! Thank YOU LORD for this in the HOLY GHOST, I pray that those of you that are watching that you would sense & feel this reality. JESUS CHRIST is in you!

Praise GOD, hey join us on Tuesday nights at 7 p.m we sit together & we read the Scriptures & wait on the LORD & we've been going through Psalm 119

it's been incredible marked by the presence of the LORD. Join us, I'll put a link down below if you want to become one of our patreon supporters & joined the mentoring group. GOD bless you guys

[2 Corinthians 13:5; 2 Peter 1:10-11]

• 2 Corinthians 13:5 | Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test your selves. Can’t you see for yourselves JESUS CHRIST is in you—unless you actually fail the test?

• 2 Peter 1:10-11 | Therefore, brothers, be all the more eager to make your calling & election sure. For if you practice these things you will never stumble,¹¹ & you will receive a lavish reception into the eternal Kingdom of our LORD & SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST.

"PRACTICE SPIRITUAL WARFARE FOR YOUR MARRIAGE"

If I were to choose the most important thing as the key that has kept my marriage united and healthy, I would have to say it is loving my husband and family more than myself and practicing spiritual warfare EVERY DAY! Since we are spiritual beings, we cannot direct our combat against a human person. 2 Corinthians 10:4-5, “For the weapons of our warfare are not physical [weapons of flesh and…

“He replied, “Because your faith is much too small. What I’m about to tell you is true. If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, it is enough. You can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there.’ And it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.” —Matthew 17:20‭-‬21 (NIRV)

“For we live by faith, not by sight.” —2 Corinthians 5:7 (NIV)

“Crazy Faith” Devotional by Michael Todd - Day 4: “Imagine That”:

“If you can’t figure out what your first step of faith should be, use the amazing tool God has given you to walk in baby faith. It’s called your imagination.

Imagination is not mere child’s play; it is a powerful force given to us by our Creator. Its root word is image, and we are created in the image of God with the power to imagine what is not yet tangible but can be realized. That’s crazy! You may have stopped using your imagination because somebody said you need to grow up and start adulting, but I’m telling you, it’s time to revive it again. Imagination is way too powerful to be left sitting in the toy box.

You can be in a place that is the exact opposite of what you desire, then close your eyes and see yourself exactly where you want to be. (Go ahead—try it!)

You could be bedridden in a full body cast, but when you close your eyes, you can imagine yourself healed and walking again.

You and your kids could wake up in your one-bedroom apartment listening to water drip into a bucket under the most recent ceiling leak, but then you close your eyes and see yourself being handed the keys to your beautiful new four-bedroom, two-bath home in a safe, quiet neighborhood.

You could be at Christmas dinner sitting next to your drunk uncle with other family members arguing across the table, but then close your eyes and see a peaceful, joyful family get-together where everyone is showing each other love and sharing testimonies of God’s faithfulness.

You could even be in a jail cell, counting down the days until you’re able to hold your child again, but when you close your eyes, you’re at her seventh birthday party, snapping pics with glittery unicorns and princess tiaras.

Don’t belittle your imagination! It’s God given. It’s divine. Those daydreams could be God trying to show you a glimpse of the future that is possible for you if you would only believe Him enough to move toward it.

If you could change one relationship, one situation in your life, one part of your daily living, what would it be? Close your eyes and imagine. Then ask God to help shape your dreams into reality.”

Charles Spurgeon summarized what this good news is by saying, “The heart of the gospel is redemption and the essence of redemption, is the substitutionary sacrifice of Christ” (1886). The more we let this sink in, the more we realize...

If You Like to Gamble, Try Betting on Sin. It Always Pays Off

Sins are something we hear about from the time we are little. Sure, it starts out as “Make good decisions”, but eventually we know what they are really talking about. There are actions that are forbidden. Some of those actions are big and obvious, and some of them are smaller and don’t seem to mean as much. The truth is, though, everybody commits sins as if there are no consequences. Perhaps…
