SETTING MY SIGHTS ON CLIMBING HIGHER - LILACLADY JUNEBUG2

 



                    SETTING MY SIGHTS

              ON CLIMBING HIGHER

                                                       by Lilaclady Junebug2


  My buddies here are
 on my bed, reminding me
 of loved ones near and far, 
of loved ones I knew who are
 now in Heaven, and others, 
who are still here. 
 Knowing my life
belongs to God through His Son 
the Lord Jesus, 



Romans 12. 1, 2  (1) “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service, (2) and be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.”   

Pull out the stops and let God stretch my heart and soul and mind.    Mull on His Word.   Energize it.    Visualize it.  

Be able to say what God is telling me through His Word. 

  

     II Timothy 2.15  Study to shew thyself approved unto  

God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth 

 

Jesus kept his goal in mind all the time He was here on earth, that He would be the Lamb Slain from before the foundation of the world.   He never let down on that goal.     

 

Philippians 2.5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus, 2.6 who being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God,: 2.7 but made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: 2.8 and being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.2.9 Wherefore God hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 2.10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth: 2.11 and that every tongue shall confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father 

 

Bringing every thing in my life to center upon having this same mind which was also in Christ Jesus, I purpose to let God’s Spirit teach me through His Word, to apply what I know, and to keep listening to the Spirit’s voice in the Word, and to heed what God is asking me to do.      

 

I purpose to SYNERGIZE by doing this. 

The body of Jesus Christ is the Church.   His local church is the means whereby He brings us together into Oneness, striving together in the ministry, that God be glorified through His Son the Lord Jesus.  

                 Still I need to start on my self, not others.

                    As I depend on God to help me, I know 

                        I can trust Him to do the same 

                             for others too. God's time table

                               for me may not be the same 

                                as yours may be.


IF I WANT TO GET SOMEWHERE
I FIRST HAVE TO KNOW
WHERE 
I AM GOING.

SO, I BEGIN 
WITH THE END IN MIND.

ASKING MYSELF SOME 
IMPORTANT QUESTION
HELPS.

MOTIVATING MY SELF
IS ALSO 
VERY IMPORTANT




IMAGINATION 
AND 
FAITH 

STEP ONE 

Philippians 4.8 
Finally, Brethern, whatsoever 
things are true, 
whatsoever things are honest,
whatsoever things are just,
whatsoever things are 
pure, 
whatsoever things are 
lovely,
whatsoever things are of 
good report; 
THINK ON THESE THINGS
Philippians 4.8
