The Ways Of God

God's righteousness is born out of His love nature because He is Love (1 Jn 4:8). It is God's eternal correctness in consistence with His Love nature. It is God being who He is and God's word being what God says it is because of His divine integrity. It is the fundamental force of the judgment of God (what He stands upon to pass judgment). The judgment of God is His decree over a person or circumstance based on His righteousness.

These statements are the raw material for this teaching I am bringing you by God's Spirit. WORDCOMPANY is back and you will be reading a lot of powerful messages designed to guarantee your relevance in this end time scheme of things. God is on the move and only men who can comprehend His ways can be relevant as Moses was relevant. The opening paragraph presents the very foundation of the ways of God as He revealed it to His servants of Old in His Word. Let me say this at this point: God does not and will never want to be a mystery to you. If you draw near to Him, He will draw near to you. I greet you in Jesus name. Welcome to a new journey with Wordcompany.

God is Love and His nature motivates His actions (Jn 3:16; 1 Jn 4:8; Rom 5:6-8). In our dispensation, the righteousness of God is the revelation of Jesus Christ and it is by FAITH to all who believe in His redemptive work and in Him to the end that they are justified by FAITH to receive that same righteousness (Rom 3:21-26; 5:17; 1Cor 5:21). This righteousness is revealed to us by the gospel (Rom 1:16-17) and it is what the Psalmist referred to as the Ways of God revealed unto Moses (Ps 103:7).

In the Old covenant, the righteousness of God was revealed in the Law to the end that all men might be guilty before God. The Law brought about the CONSCIOUSNESS of sin thus waking us up to the need for a Messiah (Rom 3:19-20). To Adam and Eve, the righteousness of God was revealed in the slaying of an animal (whose blood was atonement) whose skin was used to cover their nakedness- an Image of what God has done for the believer with the Blood of Jesus. To Noah and His generation, the Ark was a revelation of God's righteousness.  He will not judge the righteous (Gen 6; 1 Pet 3:20-21; 2 Pet 2:9).

This is an introduction. In the sequel we will begin to answer the following questions:
1. Why does God do what He does?
2. Has God anything in place to align man's motif with His nature?
3.  When we do what we do for God or I  His name, why should we do it?
4. Is it just the things we do God will Judge or the motif behind what we do?

Watch out. Remember, the Truth , our guide. Shalom Yedidim.

The Grace of Our Lord Jesus, the love of God and communion with the Spirit

On the Grace of our Lord, the Father's love and the communion of the Spirit in the life of the Believer. 2Cor 13:14 is a portion of Scripture quoted so often in church that the mention of it brings closing of service or benediction to mind. In this portion of Scripture which indeed is a prayer, is hidden an eternally powerful truth. It is my confidence that the Spirit of God by the will of God will shed light on our spirits as we seek the light of this truth, embrace it and apply it daily in our walk with God. It says "the Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Love of God and the sweet fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all". What a prayer! First it is seen in this prayer, THE WORD, THE FATHER and THE SPIRIT. Once upon a time, in the beginning of time, there was a convocation and in that meeting, Elohim, was there with The Logos and His Pneuma, and the result was creation. What if there is a creative mystery embedded in this prayer in the life of a believer? What ...

Thankful Thinking and Thanksgiving

I have a thought to share this morning. It is on the Thankful thinking and Thanksgiving.  One book of the Bible I really love is the Psalms. I love it because I can identify with it. It is a picture of the relationship between humanness and divinity, insufficiency and all-suffifiency, fallibility and grace. It is a picture of us and God, us swallowed in as we are, in His accommodating grace. David, expresses the principle of the success of this relationship in faith (conviction), trust and absolute dependence.  Thanks flows from a mind that acknowledges provision from a posture of dependence. Paul said we have no bragging rights because there is nothing we have that we have not received (1 Co 4:7). Our ingratitude therefore comes from our ignorance of our plant-to-soil kind of relationship with divinity as set forth by the law of creation: no creature is independent of its creator, every creature draws sustenance from its creator, the creator is source and sustainer of...

Test of Vision and Purpose.

What is Vision? VISION IS A MENTAL PICTURE OF A PREFERABLE FUTURE. It is the ability to see the end of a thing before the beginning. In Gen 1:26, God made male and female in his own image and likeness (all of this was in God's vision, these things were not yet in the physical, they were in the mental realm). In Gen 2, we begin to see how God actually carried out his mission to translate his vision into reality. I prophesy into your life that your dream will not die. If you can dream it, you can achieve it. We see how that there had to be a man to till the earth before seed could grow. What about the man in Genesis 1? He was in the vision realm then. God had to put adam into a deep sleep to produce Eve. What happened to the male and female in Genesis 1? Genesis chapter 1 is an account of the mental picture of the God of all creation, Genesis 2 shows us the process. God created time so that the things in the spritual can pass through the proess of manifestation. Every thing in the ...
