Thoughts on the decline of our Lifespan.

We see a continuing decline in the Lifespan of Humanity as we move from the initial span of eternity with a direct walk with the Almighty to the declining span of Adam, Seth, Noah down to Abraham, Isaac, Jacob down to the present day where we are to live for about 120 years and are living a little over half of that amount of time.

Why is this?

When the sinful element of disobedience entered the first created, it ushered in an incompatible element within the dynamic animating spirit (the Holy Spirit) that must be removed as it cannot co-exist with a sin-stained nature. The two are separated through death. It must die as the Holy Spirit is Separate and Distinct from the animating Vital Force. When we consume or take in bad food or incompatible elements into the holy sanctum of our being, we immediately remove it through vomiting and or diarrhea. It must be removed from within our inner sanctum.

Now, this element, commonly called sin, created an environmental distinction between the Holy Spirit and the animating vital force that enlivens all living creatures. By the time we get to the time of Noah, the Lifespan of Humanity is significantly reduced, as sin is pervasive throughout all. Humanity is behaving and doing what it pleases, causing the Almighty to the point of deciding to wipe out all of Humanity.

As the incompatible element of sin continued to have a more significant influence on Humanity, the influence of the Holy Spirit was increasingly compromised to the point of there being no way of redemption. The only thing left to do was to Wipe the Whole thing Out. Fortunately, there have always been elements within Humanity that had enough of the Holy Spirit to be found worthy of being spared. While all of Humanity was wiped out, Noah and his family were spared, and through that one person who had enough spirit to communicate with the Almighty, Noah and his family paved the way for Humanity to continue. Historically, there have been individuals who were found to have enough of the Holy Spirit to find favor in the eyes of the Almighty, who showed enough of a remnant of the Holy Spirit to have communication with the Almighty, which the Almighty could use.

The prophets are a great example. We will call them those who have been called to receive and obey the Almighty through which Humanity may be spared.

As we move through the rest of the Bible, there are those who demonstrate that they have enough of a Holy Spirit to communicate and be used as a living vessel for the Almighty.

Now, who today has enough of a remnant of the Holy Spirit to find favor with the Almighty on their own? No One! Enter the Messiah! A living being, made up of Humanity, filled with the Holy Spirit to resonate with the Almighty. This is our unique relationship with the Messiah, who can resonate with Humanity and the Almighty!

The resonating element that binds the two is FAITH!!

Meeting You Where You Are?

 

Daily Bible Verse & Prayer

Today's Verse - Romans 6:14

For sin shall not be your master, because you are not under law, but under grace.

Romans 6:14

Thoughts on Today's Verse...

As we called on Jesus' name in baptism and trusted him to be our Savior, we died to sin (Romans 6:3-4). By sharing in his death and resurrection, we died to dying (Romans 6:8-10; John 11:25-26). We passed from death to life because of our faith in Jesus and God's power (John 5:24). Our life is joined with Jesus, and his glorious future becomes our own (Colossians 2:12, 3:1-4). We are not under law, but grace. Let's respond to the gift of grace with passion and with zeal to be holy. Let's open ourselves to the transforming work of the Holy Spirit, who is daily at work transforming us to become more like Jesus with ever-increasing glory (2 Corinthians 3:18). We are grace-children. We don't earn our righteousness. We don't keep laws to be owed salvation. In fact, we could never succeed at such a venture. We are not in bondage to sin, but liberated by grace to be all that God has made us to be - his craftsmanship, his artistry created to do good works (Ephesians 2:1-10). So let's refuse to let sin be our master and live fully into the grace we have received!

My Prayer...

Purify my heart, dear LORD, and make it new and alive to your grace and dead to the sin that once entangled me. By grace I rejoice and choose to live by the power of your Spirit. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.

Today's Verse - Titus 2:13-14

We wait for the blessed hope — the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good.

Titus 2:13-14

Thoughts on Today's Verse...

We haven't arrived at our destination (Philippians 3:12-14). We are a people "in waiting" - saved and redeemed but awaiting the full realization of these at the "glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ"! Jesus, who offered his own life for our redemption, will gloriously return to take us home. During our time of waiting, let's not waste our time. Instead, let's be eager to do what is right, good, and holy, showing that we are God's very own people.

My Prayer...

Father, please continue your work of transformation and sanctification in me. Holy Spirit, make me eager to be transformed to become like my Savior. Jesus, make me eager to do what is good and bless others. Please do these things for your praise and for the blessing of those who need to know you better. I am not seeking my own glory, but yours, dear Father. Please forgive me for the times I have settled for mediocrity and stir me to a holy passion to belong to you and be more like you in the life I live here. In Jesus' name and until he returns, I ask for your help and grace to be more like my Savior. Amen.

Today's Verse - Titus 2:11-12

For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men. It teaches us to say "No" to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age...

Titus 2:11-12

Thoughts on Today's Verse...

Grace is not about excuses for our sins, but about a deep-seated thanksgiving for pardon and a life-changing commitment to say, "No!" to all that is evil, corrupt, and wicked, no matter how alluring or how pervasive those temptations and desires may be, and no matter how prevalent they are in our culture. As Paul taught the Ephesians, we have received mercy and grace so we could be saved FROM sin, death, and hell (Ephesians 2:6-8), and so we can be saved FOR doing what is good (Ephesians 2:10).

My Prayer...

LORD, God of Jesus, my Abba Father, I praise you for your costly grace and love demonstrated to me in Jesus. Now, please galvanize my commitment to say "No!" to all those sins that required my Savior's pain and humiliation to cleanse me and empower me to be your child. Through your Spirit, form in me a righteous lifestyle that is self-controlled and that reflects your righteous character, gracious compassion, and faithful love and justice. In the name of Jesus, I pray. Amen.
