O Lord, our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens. Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou ordained strength because of thine enemies, that thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger. When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained; What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him? Psalm 8:1-4
..It changes everything and no longer are you the centre but God is because God is dealing with the self life – with you. That is what the cross does. What is the cross for? It is to take up and die upon. That’s the nature of the cross. The Apostle Paul says we die daily that the life of Christ may manifest in and through us. That can only be achieved when God is centre of our mind and heart and being 24 / 7. That is why I am calling this teaching today ‘ How Big Is God In Your Mind And Conception ? ‘
Pastor Kim
I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily. 1Corinthians 15:31
Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body. 2Corinthians 4:10
Self Centred Or God Centred?
..You see once we understand we begin to get the idea of who God is. Then we begin to understand and know who we are. And there is the problem. All the while man is trying to understand man and he’s delving into this so called evolution which I’ve called devilution he becomes more and more confused. But when you bring God on the agenda – when you begin to acknowledge God – then we begin to understand who we are. This is why we are living now in a godless age and generation. Man’s mind is becoming seared,reprobate. He’s becoming godless because he’s so obsessed with himself. He leaves God out of the equation.
We Have A Choice..
The moment we start to acknowledge God our whole conception and ideas completely change. Now all of that might sound elementary but what I have just spoken about is a thread that runs through our everyday life. You have a choice each day whether you are going to make God centre or yourself centre. We have a choice, and that is why the Lord shows that we are too to take up our cross daily and follow Him as disciples. Not only did He take up His cross but we also do likewise for the very purpose of what I am talking about.
For the Lord is great, and greatly to be praised: he is to be feared above all gods. For all the gods of the nations are idols: but the Lord made the heavens. Honour and majesty are before him: strength and beauty are in his sanctuary. Psalm 96:4-6
I will extol thee, my God, O king; and I will bless thy name for ever and ever. Every day will I bless thee; and I will praise thy name for ever and ever. Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearchable. One generation shall praise thy works to another, and shall declare thy mighty acts. Psalm 145:1-4
Praise ye the Lord. Praise God in his sanctuary: praise him in the firmament of his power. Praise him for his mighty acts: praise him according to his excellent greatness. Psalm 150:1,2
O lord, thou hast searched me, and known me. Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off. Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways. For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O Lord, thou knowest it altogether. Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it. Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence? Psalm 139:1-7
O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out! For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath been his counsellor? Or who hath first given to him, and it shall be recompensed unto him again? For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things: to whom be glory for ever. Amen. Romans 11:33-36
Blessed be the Lord God, the God of Israel, who only doeth wondrous things. And blessed be his glorious name for ever: and let the whole earth be filled with his glory; Amen, and Amen. Psalm 72:18,19
That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God. Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen. Eph 3:17-21
The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power, Eph1:18,19
For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God; Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness; Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son: Colossians 1:9-13
