'The Agape Letters' to the House of Faith!

Volume 4 Chapter 11 Page 9

"Possess HIS Anointing!"

Philippians 3:9-10 (Amplified Bible)
 
And that I may [actually] be found and known as in Him, not having any [self-achieved] righteousness that can be called my own, based on my obedience to the Law's demands (ritualistic uprightness and supposed right standing with God thus acquired), but possessing that [genuine righteousness] which comes through faith in Christ (the Anointed One), the [truly] right standing with God, which comes from God by [saving] faith.
[For my determined purpose is] that I may know Him [that I may progressively become more deeply and intimately acquainted with Him, perceiving and recognizing and understanding the wonders of His Person more strongly and more clearly], and that I may in that same way come to know the power outflowing from His resurrection [which it exerts over believers], and that I may so share His sufferings as to be continually transformed [in spirit into His likeness even] to His death, [in the hope]

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>|||<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

In this letter to the Believers in the Phillipian church, the Lord speaks WORDs of Encouragement through the Apostle Paul, reminding them of the transforming WORK of Holy Spirit, ongoing in his own life as well as theirs.

Paul confirms his zeal to attain the Righteousness of God granted through Christ Jesus, rather than seeking a righteousness by his own strict observance to the Law as a Pharisee.

In HIS Sovereignty, God ordains that anyone who chooses to know HIM and HIS Son, will possess much greater Power with the anointing of Holy Spirit, than what they would ever hope to gain by their own strength.

Only by Faith, by God's Promise of saving Faith, was Paul so driven to Proclaim his earlier endeavors of the flesh as failures, as comparing what God would accomplish through him spiritually as he submits himself totally and completely to Holy Spirit, for guidance in understanding the depths of HIS Provision in Christ Jesus.

I give God thanks for HIS forbearance with me, as I diligently seek to follow Christ Jesus as the Anointed One, an example of Eternal Truth who reveals HIS Glory and Majesty, and as Paul writes, leads me to submit my flesh to HIS Will by serving HIM with humility and conviction.

O'Lord, YOU renew my mind with YOUR WORD,
by YOUR Spirit do YOU guide my footsteps!
Truth brings knowledge of YOUR Glory,
and YOUR Power proclaims Christ as Lord!!
I am made anew and transformed into HIS likeness,
where I must be a living example of YOUR Love!!!
YOUR WORD is Anointed to pierce the heart
of the broken and lost who have no peace,
that only in Christ may they KNOW PEACE,
and receive YOUR Gift of Eternal Life!

Praise the Lamb of God,
HE Lives Forever within my heart!!
Amen!
