EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER
["Reflections" Of The Father's Heart]
[January 14th 2010]
+ A
spirit of self-righteousness and a spirit of legalism run hand in hand. For
"legalism" is the spontaneous fruit of self-righteousness [spiritual
pride].
...."I
have been crucified with Christ [in Him I have shared His crucifixion]; it is
no longer I who live, but Christ (the Messiah) lives in me; and the life I now
live in the body I live by faith in (by adherence to and reliance on and
complete trust in) the Son of God, Who loved me and gave Himself up for me.
[Therefore, I do not treat God's gracious gift as something of minor importance
and defeat its very purpose]; I do not set aside and invalidate and frustrate
and nullify the grace (unmerited favor) of God. For if justification
(righteousness, acquittal from guilt) comes through [observing the ritual of]
the Law, then Christ (the Messiah) died groundlessly and to no purpose and in
vain. [His death was then wholly superfluous]".... Galatians 2:20-21 The
Amplified Translation
+ Things
are about to break wide open on every front, My beloved ones!
...."And
David came to Baal-perazim, and he smote them there, and said, The Lord has
broken through my enemies before me, like the bursting out of great waters. So
he called the name of that place Baal-perazim [Lord of breaking
through]".... 2 Samuel 5:20 The Amplified Translation
