499 – Conscience and The Renewed Mind
The More Abundant Life
God 499 – Conscience and The Renewed Mind Part three of the series on Thinking and the Renewed Mind. Conscience is the unrenewed mind or the renewed mind or both. In the believer, it is both. It is used 32 times in the Bible, it is the same English word and Greek word. Here's my definition of conscience: It is your mental awareness because of your previous learning, thinking, and experience. Acts 23:1 “And Paul, earnestly beholding the council, said, Men and brethren, I have lived in all good conscience before God until this day.” How could Paul say this? If something seems good or bad,...

The More Abundant Life
God 498 – The Lordship of Jesus Christ - Thinking and The Renewed Mind, Part 2 In this episode, we will look at the lordship of Jesus Christ. When a person is hurt, they often have a wound on their body. The body doesn't get better until you get rid of the cause. When you eliminate the cause, your body can heal quickly and wonderfully, just as God intended. But to get started, let's look at the renewed mind. Romans 12:1 – 2 “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable...

We need to work on our thoughts. That's the reason for this teaching series on thinking and the renewed mind.

No, by believing...

494 – Spiritually Minded with Jesus Christ
The More Abundant Life
God 494 – Spiritually Minded with Jesus Christ Below are all the Scriptures that demonstrate how to be spiritually minded with Jesus Christ. Romans 8:1b “There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus,” There is no condemnation to us who are born again of God's spirit, but we can be spiritually minded. That means we live with a new law or a new rule, a new way of looking at things, we look at things through spiritual eyes. Romans 8:4 – 9 “That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. 5 For...

493 – God Forbid
The More Abundant Life
God 493 – God Forbid Below are all the Scriptures that demonstrate that the phrase 'God forbid' means 'don't even let it cross your mind.' We'll see that, because of all the accomplished works of Jesus Christ, we can stand in the grace of God and the love of God. Romans 6:1 & 2 “What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? 2 God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?” We now live in a new era of independence. The verses to follow ask and answer questions. To see the fullness of this, let's remember what it says in Romans...

God 491 – Paul the Servant of Jesus Christ Below are written all the Scriptures, making it easy for you to follow along with on your devices. In our last podcast episode, number 490, we learned that Paul the Apostle, the servant of our Lord Jesus Christ, longed to see the Saints in Rome. He wanted to impart some spiritual gifts so that they may be established. We're continuing in Romans chapter 1 verse 20 Romans 1:20 “For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so...

God 490 – Romans Chapters One – The Apostle Paul's Goals Below are written all the Scriptures, making it easy for you to follow along with on your devices. Romans 1:1 “Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God,” Servant is the word "doulos" in Greek. In the lands and Times of the Bible, a servant could choose by his free will to continue to work for his master after 7 years as a servant. He could feel like his master was a good Master who cared for him very well, and all his needs were met. So he would decide to continue with the master....

471 – The Manifestation of Prophecy
All the Scriptures and my notes are written below.
1 Corinthians 14:1 – 4: “ Follow after charity, and desire spiritual gifts, but rather that ye may prophesy. 2 For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries. 3 But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men to edification, and exhortation, and comfort. 4 He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth the church.”
The manifestation of Prophecy speaks edification, and exhortation, and comfort. None of the utterance manifestations are for guidance. That is number one. It's not for guidance.
Let's look more at what it is not. It is not the ministry of a prophet.
Let's look at the ministry of a prophet to understand this.
Ephesians 4:11:”And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;”
Ephesians 3:5: “Which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men, as it is now revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit;”
1 Corinthians 12:7 – 11 “But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal. 8 For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit; 9 To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit; 10 To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues: 11 But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will.”
1 Corinthians 12:28 “And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues.”
Deuteronomy 18:22 “When a prophet speaketh in the name of the LORD, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the LORD hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously: thou shalt not be afraid of him.”
A prophet does not just make something up or develop it in his mind.
The manifestation of Prophecy is not revelation.
It is not fore telling of the future.
Let's look at the prophet's way.
Acts 21:10 – 11 “And as we tarried there many days, there came down from Judaea a certain prophet, named Agabus. 11 And when he was come unto us, he took Paul's girdle, and bound his own hands and feet, and said, Thus saith the Holy Ghost, So shall the Jews at Jerusalem bind the man that owneth this girdle, and shall deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles.”
2 Kings 3:14 – 19 “And Elisha said, As the LORD of hosts liveth, before whom I stand, surely, were it not that I regard the presence of Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, I would not look toward thee, nor see thee. 15 But now bring me a minstrel. And it came to pass, when the minstrel played, that the hand of the LORD came upon him. 16 And he said, Thus saith the LORD, Make this valley full of ditches. 17 For thus saith the LORD, Ye shall not see wind, neither shall ye see rain; yet that valley shall be filled with water, that ye may drink, both ye, and your cattle, and your beasts. 18 And this is but a light thing in the sight of the LORD: he will deliver the Moabites also into your hand. 19 And ye shall smite every fenced city, and every choice city, and shall fell every good tree, and stop all wells of water, and mar every good piece of land with stones.”
2 Kings 20:14 – 18 “Then came Isaiah the prophet unto king Hezekiah, and said unto him, What said these men? and from whence came they unto thee? And Hezekiah said, They are come from a far country, even from Babylon. 15 And he said, What have they seen in thine house? And Hezekiah answered, All the things that are in mine house have they seen: there is nothing among my treasures that I have not shewed them. 16 And Isaiah said unto Hezekiah, Hear the word of the LORD. 17 Behold, the days come, that all that is in thine house, and that which thy fathers have laid up in store unto this day, shall be carried into Babylon: nothing shall be left, saith the LORD. 18 And of thy sons that shall issue from thee, which thou shalt beget, shall they take away; and they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.”
The manifestation of Prophecy is always a declaration, never foretelling.
It is not preaching.
It is not fortune-telling.
It is not premeditated.
It is not for guidance or Revelations.
If it were for guidance or revelation, why have the revelation manifestations?
It is not the spiritual ability to tell people's faults.
1 Corinthians 14:3 “But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men to edification, and exhortation, and comfort.”
Until the next time we get together, may God bless you abundantly.
