PEACE IS A PERSPECTIVE

In this conversation with Nate, Bryan is sharing the horrendous experience with a car being totaled due to mis-diagnosis. Through it all Bryan & Tara found peace in the storm that lasted over a year.
Bryan describes the insurance agent asked him how are you so calm? Bryan: "because of my Lord & Savior Jesus Christ, and I believe what God's Word says!"

We must NEVER allow circumstances and situations to dictate who we are in Him. The more we seek first the kingdom of God and deny ourselves we will stand firm on God's promises.
All His promises are Yes and Amen (2 Corinthians 1:20)

Matthew 6:33 AMP
But first and most importantly seek (aim at, strive after) His kingdom and His righteousness [His way of doing and being right—the attitude and character of God], and all these things will be given to you also.

Luke 9:23 AMP
And He was saying to them all, “If anyone wishes to follow Me [as My disciple], he must deny himself [set aside selfish interests], and take up his cross daily [expressing a willingness to endure whatever may come] and follow Me [believing in Me, conforming to My example in living and, if need be, suffering or perhaps dying because of faith in Me].

As we spend time in the Word of God we begin to know and trust Him at His Word. Paul writes in Galatians 5:22-23 about the 9 attributes of the fruit of the Spirit, peace is one of the 9.
5 or so years ago Bryan states his reaction to the situation would not have been the same.. All glory to God.

WALK IN THE LIGHT

Walking in the Light does not mean that we will never face problems, opposition, or difficult circumstances. Sometimes we can mistakenly believe that if God is truly leading us, everything should go smoothly. But Scripture shows us something very different.

“Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If anyone walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees by the light of this world.”
‭‭John‬ ‭11‬:‭9‬ ‭AMP‬‬

Jesus was preparing to return to Judea, the very place where people had recently tried to stone Him. The disciples saw the danger and questioned why He would go back. Yet Jesus knew what the Father was leading Him to do. The presence of opposition did not change His direction.

Light does not mean there are no hazards in the road. Light allows us to see clearly how to walk through them.

The same is true in our walk with God. Being in His will does not guarantee that everything will be easy. Problems are not necessarily evidence that we have missed God, and resistance is not always a sign that we should turn around. Sometimes the road God has called us to walk will require us to trust Him when circumstances tell us otherwise.

Our decisions cannot be based solely on whether something is comfortable, easy, or free from opposition. We must learn to discern the will of God and continue walking in what He has shown us, regardless of the cost.

Peter reminds us that trials should not surprise us.

“Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal which is taking place to test you [that is, to test the quality of your faith], as though something strange or unusual were happening to you.”
‭‭1 Peter‬ ‭4‬:‭12‬ ‭AMP‬‬

When difficulties arise, don't automatically assume you are on the wrong road. Go back to what God has spoken. Go back to His Word. Seek His direction and continue walking in the Light He has given you.

The question is not whether there are problems on the road.
The question is whether God has told you to walk it.
When you know you are following His direction, keep walking in the Light.

YOUR EXPERIENCE DOESN’T GET THE FINAL WORD

One of the things Nate and I talked about in this clip really made me think about how easily our experiences can shape the way we think. When something has been a certain way for years, maybe even our entire life, we naturally begin to believe that is simply the way it is and the way it will always be. Eventually what we have experienced becomes what we expect.

However there is a difference between what we have experienced and what God has said. Our experiences are real. Our circumstances are real. What we have seen, felt and lived through is real. But those things were never meant to have greater authority in our lives than the Word of God.

That is why Romans 12:2 tells us to be transformed by the renewing of our minds. When our thinking begins to change, our perspective begins to change. As our perspective changes, we begin to see our circumstances differently. We stop looking only at what has always been and begin looking at what God Word says.

For years we can rehearse the same thoughts until they become deeply rooted beliefs. This is just who I am. This is how it has always been. Nothing is ever going to change. But when the Word begins renewing our minds, those old ways of thinking start losing their authority. We begin seeing ourselves, our circumstances and our future from God's perspective instead of through the lens of our past.

Our experience may explain why we think the way we do, but it doesn't have to determine how we continue thinking. The Word of God changes our thinking, as our thinking changes, our perspective changes. When our perspective changes, the way we live changes.

So maybe the question isn't simply, what have I experienced?

Maybe the better question is, what have I been thinking because of what I've experienced, and does that thinking agree with what God has said?

Our experience may describe where we have been, but it does not get the final word over where we are going.

God's Word does.

THE FAITH TO FORGIVE

This morning I was reading Luke 17 and something stood out to me that I had not considered before.

Jesus had just been teaching His disciples about forgiveness. He told them that if someone sinned against them and repeatedly returned in repentance, they were to forgive them. Their response was.....
“The apostles said to the Lord, ‘Increase our faith [our ability to confidently trust in God and in His power].’” — Luke 17:5 AMP

Think about it....

These men had watched Jesus heal the sick, cast out demons and perform incredible miracles. Yet we do not see those things causing them to ask Jesus to increase their faith. But when Jesus starts talking about repeatedly forgiving someone who has wronged them, suddenly they realize this is going to require faith.

Jesus gives an interesting answer.... He doesn't point them toward a huge amount of faith. He points them toward something incredibly small, a mustard seed.

“And the Lord said, ‘If you have [confident, abiding] faith in God [even as small] as a mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree [which has very strong roots], ‘Be pulled up by the roots and be planted in the sea’; and [if the request was in agreement with the will of God] it would have obeyed you.’” — Luke 17:6 AMP

The problem wasn't that they needed God to give them a larger quantity of faith. They needed to learn to confidently trust God and exercise the faith they already had.

There is a difference between having faith and using faith.

We can talk about growing in faith without believing that God somehow shortchanged us and didn't give us enough. Our confidence in Him grows. Our understanding of His Word grows. We learn to exercise what He has placed within us. We learn to trust Him where we previously trusted our feelings, circumstances or understanding.

And in the context of Luke 17, Jesus shows us an incredible place where that faith needs to operate: forgiveness.

We often think of great faith as believing for healing, provision, breakthrough or some impossible circumstance to change. But sometimes faith looks like forgiving someone who hurt you.

Sometimes the mountain isn't something happening around us. Sometimes the mountain is the offense we're carrying within us.
Forgiveness requires us to trust God more than we trust our emotions. It requires us to believe that His way is better even when everything in our flesh wants to hold onto the hurt. That is walking by faith.

Instead of continually asking God to give us more faith, we should begin asking whether we are using the faith He has already given us.

Faith isn't only something we possess, it's something we walk in, and one of the greatest demonstrations of faith is simply choosing to forgive.

PURIFY YOURSELF, JUST AS HE IS PURE

This morning’s devotion really challenged me. 1 John 3:3 says, “And everyone who has this hope in Him purifies himself, just as He is pure.”

Think about those last words for a moment: “Just as He is pure.”

Often when we talk about living holy, walking in purity, or living as Jesus lived, the immediate response is, “But we’re only human.” Yet Jesus was truly human. He experienced hunger, exhaustion, emotions, suffering and temptation. He even grew in wisdom and stature.. Hebrews 4:15 says He “was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin.” Being tempted is not the same thing as sinning. Jesus experienced temptation, but He never yielded to it. That distinction matters because Scripture never teaches that the believer has to surrender to the desires of the flesh because we are human.

Paul tells us plainly in Galatians 5:16, “Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.” Notice what he says. He doesn’t say we will never experience temptation. He says when we walk in the Spirit, we will not fulfill the desires of the flesh. That means the question isn’t whether temptation will come. The question is, what are we going to yield to when it does?

Romans 6:11 tells us to “reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Then Paul continues, Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body.

That’s completely different from believing sin has to control us because we are human. In Christ, sin is no longer our master. We have been made alive to God, His Spirit lives within us, and we MUST continually renew our minds by His Word.

Will we have moments when we respond from the flesh instead of yielding to the Spirit? Absolutely. That is why the renewing of our minds is so important. But our failures should never cause us to lower God’s standard to match our experience. Instead, His Word should continually bring our experience into alignment with His truth.

John says, “He who says he abides in Him ought himself also to walk just as He walked.” — 1 John 2:6
Jesus is our example. He is the One we follow.

By the renewing of our minds we're learning to yield to the same Holy Spirit who now lives within us and allowing Him to transform the way we think, speak and live.

Maybe instead of asking, How much sin can a Christian get away with and still be saved? we should be asking a completely different question:

What does my life look like when I truly walk in the Spirit?
Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.
Galatians 5:16

The goal isn’t perfection produced by our own strength. The goal is a life increasingly surrendered to Him, where what He has done inside of us becomes visible through the way we live.

“And everyone who has this hope in Him purifies himself, just as He is pure.” 1 John 3:3
