 "His Voice Today"

June 8

🔸️ We need to see Jesus to run the race of faith and not on ourselves! 🔸️

First of all, we should not live by seeing "in ourselves." God does not teach us to do so! How can we run the "race" by looking within ourselves? I have seen this mistake in the good congregations that preaching holiness. Many in the congregation are still watching "themselves." Doing so will bring us a great deal of stress. Because there is no 'good' in our flesh!

A spiritual man “always” keeps his mind on higher things and not on Earthly things! When we see Jesus in that upward view, in the glory of Jesus, the Holy Spirit will make him to realize His needs (Hebrews 12:1).

It is only when we find ourselves in this rich way that God has created, we will never get tired of it!! Only those who wish to improve their lives "psychologically" will care about themselves only!

When the Holy Spirit, the Comforter comes, "He will show you all that is in me!" Jesus said. An important sign that we are truly walking with the Lord and that we are living in the fullness of the anointing of the Holy Spirit is, "The Spirit of God will reveal and show us Jesus further more!".

While we read Ephesians 4:24 earnestly, it categorically telling... "Put on the new man, who is created in the image of God in true righteousness and holiness." Many who follow holiness today are following "false holiness." The false holiness that is seen as holiness to their own eyes! That is why a spiritual man first sees "Jesus" upward...Then he sees himself in that light and progresses in the holiness of Jesus!!

 Prayer:

Heavenly Father! Thank you very much for the encouragement you have given us, as we are so despondent to see ourselves and thank you for calling us to run towards You! In the name of Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.
