January 14 Mighty and Marvelous Glad indeed are the souls with whom I walk. Walking with Me is security. The coming of My Spirit into a life, and the working are imperceptible, but the result is might. Learn of Me. Kill the self. Every blow to self is used to shape the real, eternal, imperishable you. Be very candid and rigorous with yourselves. "Did self prompt that?" and if it did, oust it at all costs. When I died on the Cross, I died embodying all the human self. Once that was crucified, I could conquer even death. When I bore your sins in My own body on the Tree I bore the self-human nature of the world. As you too kill self, you gain the overwhelming power I released for a weary world, and you too will be victorious. It is not life and its difficulties you have to conquer, only the self in you. As I said to My disciples, "I have many things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now." You could not understand them. But as you go on obeying Me and walking with Me, and listening to Me, you will, and then you will see how glorious, how marvelous My revelations are, and My teachings. I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily. 1 Corinthians 15:31 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Show God Calling on your website from Advent Digital |

Thank you for this word today. I am going to print it out and "Did self prompt that?" will be my question to ask regularly. Denise |

That is exactly the words that leaped out at me. Every good question deserves and honest answer. This will be a good time to examine ourselves daily as St. Paul exhorted us. |

GReat! How delighted I am to have some time to dig into the threads I usually have to pass up! This and the Inner Harvest were both good! |

This also struck me as priorites that we have to re-arrange:

So true. Everything is easier in my life when I forget "me" - taking direction at work, dealing with demanding/arrogant coworkers, eating sensibly, thinking about how DH might be affected/feel about something, etc. Jesus sure knew when He was talking about! :) |
