Some trust in Technology, I trust in the name of My God Psalm 20:7

Some trust in Technology, I trust in the name of My God
Psalm 20:7 “…Some trust in chariots and some in horses,
but we trust in the name of the LORD our God…”

I am content to fellowship with the comfort of Jesus' presence in my life, for him to sit by me, to be with me, to be in me, to walk with me to walk behind me, to go in front of me, to be above me, to be below me and to Surround me with His Grace and presence, in pure and simple devotion of Prayer and Trust.

There are those who would surround themselves with technology and find comfort in the latest and the greatest, and those who live for that quest of having the latest and the greatest to enhance there boasting. But the latest and the greatest will wear off, and slump into the old and forgotten until something newer and better comes along.

The wisdom and Knowledge of God is greater than the wisdom and technology of man. Indeed! God is the source of all the technological wisdom and insight of man, yet the arrogance of man centered thinking and the sovereignty of man thinking will not acknowledge the Sovereignty of God to conceal matters, while it is up to man to search them out Proverbs 25:2 It is the glory of God to conceal a matter;
to search out a matter is the glory of kings.

I choose to seek after God's truth and rely in His Knowledge than the greatest technology of man, it all has it's origins in my Sovereign God and Creator.
It comforts me to know that I have the Holy Spirit working in me to will and purpose according to His good pleasure that Christ be glorified in me--and this act of Sanctification is not stimulated, energized nor dependant upon the latest technology and greatest technology; it does not need the sensors of technology to change me, nor the Technology of GPS to give me direction. No! but the Holy Spirit gives me direction through His word. And the Holy Spirit provides sensory perception to His work in me to change and convict me.

Repentance a Great and Healthy Exchange! I John 1:9

I John 1:8-9
If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. 9If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness

The conviction of the Holy Spirit, is like a Demolition ball that breaks through and shatters the demolished condemned walls of an old building. To cause to crumble the wall of sin that would be an affront to His Holy presence in me.

In Repentance, I find a great exchange; the awareness of my sin and helplessness to change, in light of God's Holiness and perfection.

In confession, I find the liberation to give my unworthiness to God only to see His Great work of Sanctification in me to rip out and purge that which would seek to hold me in darkness to keep me from His Holy presence.

Ephesians 4:13 My Definition Found in the Image Of Christ!

Ephesians 4:13
13until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.

Genesis 1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.

God created me uniquely in His image, I am my own person, but in His image. No one defines me, but Christ. I am happy that God created me as a unique person and image bearer of God. Being made in the image of God, I am an image bearer of God's presence. Being made in the image of God, my image was restored in Christ.

My definition is found in Christ, in him is found my fullest potential; He is my all things possible and my positivity! Apart from Him it is all negativity, in him my perfection and righteousness is found!

2 Timothy 3:7 Empty Knowledge

2 Timothy 3:7 ”… always learning but never able to acknowledge the truth…”

There are those who would seek after knowledge through Colleges and Universities and find comfort in this quest. And also, find a positive attitude in learning all the languages of the world and this is all good for a while; but unless your quest for knowledge brings you to the Knowledge of Christ-it is all empty knowledge always learning but never coming to true Knowledge at the foot of the Cross of Christ. If your knowledge does not lead you to the Knowledge of Christ and to Glorify God in your life—Then it is an empty quest a restless evil under the sun, meaningless, meaningless!

In Christ My Spirit cannot be crushed, when Facing my giants! ISamuel 17:45-47

I Samuel 17:45-47: David said to the Philistine, "You come against me with sword and spear and javelin, but I come against you in the name of the LORD Almighty, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied. 46 This day the LORD will hand you over to me, and I'll strike you down and cut off your head. Today I will give the carcasses of the Philistine army to the birds of the air and the beasts of the earth, and the whole world will know that there is a God in Israel. 47 All those gathered here will know that it is not by sword or spear that the LORD saves; for the battle is the LORD's, and he will give all of you into our hands."

In and of myself, I am small and insignificant, and many giants surround me, and threaten to crush and destroy me; I may pale very small in comparison to my biggest giants--However, in my soul and resurrected life in Christ, my life soars like a majestic Mountain making my giants like a moth that burns in the fire and is no more.

That is why David was as bold as a lion when facing Goliath. He had great boldness, faith and righteous indignation against the enemies of God--he saw his insignificance in himself, but reliance upon and faith in God made him soar like an eagle against Goliath;his soul and spirit became a greater giant to Goliath. Goliath may have had great Physical stature,size and strength; but his soul was small, indeed, even dead to God and paled in comparison to David's Soul and Faith in God.

In Christ, my giants become as small as an ant and insignificant to threaten and destroy, and I can't be crushed!

The Sovereignty of God--Directing all things for His Purpose Proverbs 21-1-2

The Sovereignty of God teaches that God works out everything for His purpose and glory, even the wicked for the day of disaster Proverbs 16:4
"The LORD works out everything for his own ends—
even the wicked for a day of disaster."

Even when people choose their own way, they can choose their own will and insist on their own way, but in the end, God is still directing their own choices for His own Glory and purpose.

They will rage and rebel against this idea, because they want to think that they are in control of their own destiny and fate, by the choices they make in life. Yet they are blind to God's Sovereignty directing all things, even in His permissive will for His own glory.

Look at Pharaoh, He chose to harden his heart against God's will to let God's people go, yet little did he know that in his hardened heart and choice to rebel against God--God's purpose was being fulfilled! Wow! This truly highlights the greatness of God, even over our own stubborn will and choices.

So the wicked who rebel against God and his word, may think that they are the master's of their own fate, but little do they know that God is Sovereign directing all things for His will and purpose and He does not answer to anyone for His sovereign plans and purposes.

The Sovereignty of man teaching, will put man at the center of his actions and choices, and indeed, he does make choices that will result in actions, be it sinful or true. But when his will is bound by sin, by which there is no deliverance in and of yourself, when you rage against the cross, your sovereign destiny will be in the hands of God who will determine by your will and choices in this life, whether you are a vessel of Honor or a vessel of dishonor for destruction--and that was determined before the foundation of the world! Truly incomprehensible!

The More time in God's Presence the more Grace to Love others Luke 10:27

Luke 10:27

27He answered: " 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind' and, 'Love your neighbor as yourself."

Before you can love your neighbor as yourself, you need to Love the Lord with all you heart, with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind--

Hello, for Eternal Salvation, that means we must empty ourselves of self, and humbly submit yourself to the throne of Grace and die to self and repent and believe on Jesus for Salvation.

But in our daily walk of Sanctification, we must daily die to our idolatry's and worship of self.

Notice the times that we get angry at someone, why do we get angry? Did they get in our way, did they treat us with contempt, and ignore us? Did they treat us as if they were better than us? Did they treat us as if they were okay, and you were not okay? As if you have a problem and they do not?

All this activity under the sun and responses under the sun is based on a Horizontal plane--When we view our worth and sense of well being by how others treat us and exclude our standing before the presence of the Lord, we then become the Devils playing ground and give him a foothold on our emotions because we initially react.

Instead, we need to Pray, and submit ourselves in Prayer before God and constantly pray and overcome evil with prayer, the more we are tempted to sin the more we should pray. The more other people's sinful behavior attacks us, the more we need to pray and submit ourselves to Christ our stronghold and strength! Submit to prayer and you will discover His Grace sufficient for the need of the moment and the peace of God which transcends all understanding will guard your heart and mind in Christ Jesus! Philippians 4:7
