It's been too long of putting on a shelf His request for me to write. Why? Fear? But when you don't let that have a hold anymore, great things can happen! So here I begin again.
When you have been turning up a lot of stuff, battling, processing, leaning in, seeking, listening, obeying and the day to day keeps revealing more truth and revelation, it just culminates to a place of vulnerability and sharing. You know when you hope someone can learn something much quicker than you....so you share with that hope.
Who has control issues?? Most likely, most of us... because if we are not allowing Him complete control and aren't surrendered, then we probably have this issue somewhere!
As earthly beings we live from our soul unless we change our way of thinking. We tend to live aware of our sin and being self conscious. In this case we aren't being spirit led and God-conscious.
Just like Paul we ask, "why do we do the things we don't want to do" and wonder isn't the old man suppose to have died and aren't we a new creation....? Then why do we not function as a new creation?? We have to change the way we think, quit being soul-led and begin to be Spirit led. That takes being intentional! We have to yield to Him and know we are in need of a Savior. We are in Him and He is in us so all the fullness of Him and heaven is in us! That's powerful! That doesn't leave room for any insecurity, because we are good in HIM! Our identity is so secure!
He is completely and more than capable to meet every need!
Our gifts and callings are irrevocable. They are given to us by God so why do we try to get approval of man?? That means we are trying to be defined by a human being!
That will be a hamster wheel you never get off unless you become more GOD CONSCIOUS AND HEAVENLY MINDED!
So who is with me and wants to agree that the old man is dead and choose the privilege of fellowshipping with only the new man and being Spirit led??!
It's really freeing, and peaceful and crazy awesome to not have to strive and get to live out of who He is in us!!
I did it long enough the other way that the fruit of that lifestyle and belief system affected many negatively! You see I experienced hellacious trauma, threats, robbed childhood, lack of safety, no voice, and the result of that was living out of fear which led to control and protecting my self. Well, when the lies are exposed and the truth is where you begin to live from, the burden gets light, the skip returns to your step, you dance like a child again, and the future looks really bright!
So grateful for the first time in my life that my pastors didn't give up on me, ran the race with me, weren't afraid of messy, loved me big and saw the TRUE Angelia!
