How to live on the way to eternity.
If that's the first time you've heard a statement like that, then I need to do some explaining.
Come to think of it; if you've been raised in the church and I've heard a statement like that, I need to do some explaining. Sadly, most of us as believers park at the first revelation we have on God's kingdom. When we opened our spirit to Jesus, we were taught that we would live forever. Then, of course, they added that you have eternal life after you die.
Well, the scriptures that capture the words of Jesus are very clear on when that eternal life happens. We don't die to receive eternal life. We believe in Jesus Christ to receive eternal life.
So how am I to live if I believe I am now eternally alive in Christ. Plainly speaking, we shape our lives and plans based on our concept of the future.
This generation of young people that have been through the universities and were raised in Hollywood movies are convinced there's no hope for them in the future. Because of that, the suicide rate among that age group is off the charts. Why?
Because when you have no revelation of the eternal life that Christ has given you, the future is nothing but darkness and gloom.
However, those who put their trust in the Lord live life full of vision and purpose and the joy of the Lord. The reason?
We are now living life this life with eternal life residing in us and flowing out of us because of Christ. Death is not my master; I do not fear it. Why?
Because Christ conquered death and took the sting out of it.
When we were raised with Christ from the dead as he was, we received the same life that he received; it's called everlasting life. That's what we live in today and on into every future day ahead of us.
So rejoice you will never die. Oh, there will be some pretty significant changes along the way, as a matter of fact, some supernatural changes. But no worries, that are in God's hands; he will take care of it.

Heaven is not a retirement club.
It's pretty amazing all the variations and ideas people have about heaven and the afterlife. If you're a non-church person, your idea of heaven has been shaped by Hollywood and the movies they have produced in the last several decades.
Hollywood has trained you that angels are named Charlie, and they ring a bell when they get their wings. The subject of God from Hollywood comes in all forms of thought and perverted ideas.
They have attempted to introduce God in several forms. Of course, all of them are man's ideas and someone's perspective of what they think God would be.
If you're a church person, you have your own set of befuddled teachings and half-baked ideas of heaven and God himself. I don't say this lightly. I was raised in the church, and the message was never really clear and sometimes not understandable.
Of course, this is a statement about the church in general. I am aware that many excellent teachers, pastors, spiritual leaders, etc., understand heaven and who God is.
In the last 15 years, you may have been hearing about people going to heaven on a spiritual journey and coming back, reporting what it's all about. Of course, this is way out of general Orthodoxy in the church, and Orthodoxy means that everybody thinks and believes the same about a particular subject.
Of course, that's what got Jesus, and the apostle Paul in trouble, wasn't it. They refuse to repeat what the elders of Israel have been teaching for centuries.
Pay attention because I believe God wants to peel the onion of revelation concerning heaven and his throne room. He has invited us in, and we don't have to wait to die to go there.
And like Roy Rogers and Dale Evans often said, "happy trails to you."

The dream album and roadmap.
There seems to be renewing interest in dreams and visions in the church. I believe it's healthy for the body of Christ to understand the purpose of both dreams and visions.
So let's talk just a little about those biblical occasions that are referred to as night visions, or you might call them dreams. An essential tool for guidance, revelation, and warnings comes through the Bible called night visions.
In the first book of the Bible, Genesis 46, Israel is instructed by God through a night vision. The book of Job is filled with God speaking and giving direction and instructions through the process of night visions.
The great old testament prophet Daniel received his lengthy and profound prophecies through the method of night visions. Dreams in the night.
Zachariah entered into a series of teaching and experiencing heavenly throne room business in night visions.
Joseph, the stepfather of Jesus, was born in the night vision to flee and go to Egypt.
And of course, the apostle Paul had his most important decisions through this beautiful gift that God has given us as men and women; dreams in the night, Night vision.
With that record in mind, prepare yourself for new adventure's in God and his kingdom through the mechanism of night visions. If you believe you will receive.
Side note: keep a notebook close at hand and write them down.

I'm pressing on the upward way, new heights I am gaining every day.
That's an old song of the church referring to the Christian who is progressing in their developing relationship with their Father.
However, when we use the word "pressing," many would equate that to energy, busywork struggle to go forward.
In reality, to press into God simply means leaning into him like the apostle John did and putting his head on His chest. The scriptures tell us to seek the Lord while He may be found. If we're not careful, that could make us think that He's hiding or doesn't want to be found, so we become nervous and full of anxiety.
I believe that the word press could be exchanged for the word rest. The apostle Paul talks a lot about resting and trusting that what God has done for you will be complete in you.
As a young man in the ministry, I pressed into the Lord, yet much of the time, I had a nervous frustration or anxiety, wondering if God was ever going to come through for me. Oh yes, I had faith in praying for the sick and seeing them healed. And I had faith that men and women would come to Jesus when I preached. And they did.
However, the underlying struggle would have been, am I ever going to reach that place that I desire and believe God has called me to. There were too many years of anxiety that I suffered unnecessarily. Why?
Because my God, my Father is in charge of my advancement.
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart lean not unto your own understanding in all of your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct thy path."

You are God's address, the place where he abides.
When Jesus told his disciples that he was going away to make a place for them where he was, they would also be, that place he made for us was not "a mansion over the hilltop in our home in the sky in the sweet by and by."
Jesus went into the Father's presence with his blood and presented the Father with the ransom for every man and woman that ever came into this earth through the womb.
That mansion over the hilltop that we sing about in our human understanding is a spiritual dwelling place He made in the hearts of men and women.
Because of the cross of the resurrection, God was able to move into temples made without hands, you and I.
In John 17, Jesus said Father make them one just like you, and I are one.
Because of Grace's work on the cross and by the resurrection power, he made it possible to be one with God, dwelling together in that spiritual mansion.
With that revelation hitting our understanding, what are we to do with it?
When we understand what it means to have Christ in us, the hope of glory brings health and peace to our body, soul, and spirit.
We see a glimpse of that lifestyle in Ephesians 317.
That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith that she is 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 passive knowledge that she might be filled with all the fullness of God.
So there you go.

The mind that our creator gave us is beyond our comprehension of its power and its ability to control life in our future. That wonderful scripture in Philippians four, the eighth verse, gives us a list of things to think about. Is this a form of mind control, or is it the principles of life God has given us so that we might live in peace and health?
That list of things to sink on includes purity, honesty good reports. What is that all the mind is to focus on? No, I don't think so. Those instructions that Paul gave us for our mind to focus on have to do with the human side of life.
The real power in our mind is on the spiritual side because it brings us to Christ.
Paul tells us in the book of Ephesians that we are to be renewed in our innermost minds, which is the spirit of your mind.
We have been taught over the years that we need to get the truth of God's word from our minds and drop it down into our hearts. However, I believe it's the other way around.
The revelation of Jesus Christ starts in the heart and captivates the thinking.
The essence of repentance, including the root word of repent, means to have a change of mind.
So the apostle Paul tells us in Philippians two and five, let this mind be in you that was also in Christ Jesus.
Jesus knew exactly where he came from, who he was, and what his purpose on earth was.
Think about it; folks, let this mind be in you.
Know where you came from, why you're here and where you're going.

Years ago, when I was a team pastor in a great church in Southern California. I was the lead pastor for the evangelism team that went out to visit and witness those who came to visit our church. One day my secretary came to me and said Pastor, look at this address; we can't get there from here.
Well, after I explained to her that those dear people got from their house to the church so surely, we could find their house.
We got a good laugh out of that, but later I began to think about the seriousness of the statement; you can't get there from here.
Have you ever heard someone say; I can't get into that?
In other words, there's no doorway for me to go through so I can get into or understand the subject at hand.
Psalms 23 is one of those doorways that allows us to get into the world where God dwells. In this world, we can see and hear clearly and learn all about love in God's world and how God never stops loving us.
Of all the questions I've been asked repeatedly, I suppose the most repeated one is; Pastor, how can I get into God?
Come along with me for a few moments as we journey through Psalm 23. You'll be amazed at how many doorways there are into the things God has prepared for you.

Is there a father in the house?
A statement was made that caught my eye this past week. It was from a prominent man that I have confidence that he knows his business and the society we live in.
He said the central problem in the United States and possibly other Western nations is the absence of fathers in the home. When the presence and influence of a father are missing from the home, the children are affected in so many different ways.
A survey of the prison population will tell you that a vast percentage of the men in prison for crimes they have committed had no father influence in their life. There is something about the hand of the father on a child that not only gives them guidance for life but also puts a governor on childhood rebellion.
I am keenly aware of the single-parent situation in our nation, especially for mothers raising their children alone. We pray for our single mothers; we love them and support them in every way we can.
But the pattern that God made is male and female, which makes the family unit.
Change the law, pervert society, ignore the principles of God, and all you get is chaos and trouble. As someone said, you can put a rat in a cookie jar that doesn't make him a cookie.
So what's the answer?
We need the spirit of fatherhood to return to our society and our churches. God has a way of restoration; He knows how to bring back what was lost.
If you're a father, ask God to make you the best one you could ever be. Ask for wisdom every day on all the little things you do to raise your children.
If you are a pastor, male or female, you have the father position in the house. You have the steady hand and the wise answer that gives peace to the children. You are not lord and master; you are filling the place God gave you, representing the fatherhood of God Himself.
Just because God is our Father doesn't make Him a dictator because pure love always makes way for healing and success.
Is there a father in the house? I say yes, and I call them to rise and be what God has called you to be.

Our worth is defined by His gift.
Imagine with me for a moment that we are much more valuable to God than we have ever considered. Our understanding of the subject of pride needs to be re-interpreted to us. We know pride comes before destruction and a hottie spirit before a fall. We've had that preached to us enough or maybe too much to where we have no pride in who we are or what God made us.
Imagine then how God thinks about us and what value he puts on you and me.
Our value to God is directly connected to the price he paid to redeem us back from the prison that we had lived in since the fall of man.
When Jesus was teaching about the Kingdom in the book of Matthew 13, he said there was a man who found a great treasure in the field, and he sold all that he had to purchase the field.
Then in the 45th first, there was some man who found a pearl of great price and sold all he had to purchase the pearl.
This is directly connected to John 316 we're god so loved the world that he gave the only son that he we begot or birthed. These scriptures concerning the Kingdom of God, which you and I are a part of, tell us that God sold everything he had, his most precious treasure, to redeem us back to himself.
Remember this next time the dark cloud of depression drifts over your head, and you begin to think about how unworthy you are to be a son or daughter of God. Remember the price that your heavenly father paid to redeem you and bring you back into the complete restoration of your sonship and membership in the Kingdom of God.
Remember also; it was the mercy of God that forgave you and the grace of God that empowers you.
Rejoice; you are the treasure he found and the pearl he redeemed.

Our father in heaven- the pattern.
Jesus told the people he was speaking to that he did nothing but what he saw the father do. That's a very interesting statement; it is also life-giving because it is a law of life and is active in our life whether we know it or not. On the natural side of things, you end up doing what you see your father do.
You could put that statement in the category of "the sins of the fathers."
However, because of the cross and resurrection and holy spirit importation, we have been given a new blood system that carries the DNA of our heavenly father.
Therefore we are new creatures in Christ Jesus, and all things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.
What's new?
Because we have been made into his likeness, we know I have the same father.
Some of the old things that have passed away are the generational curses our forefathers passed on to us because of the fall.
Now because of our faith in Christ, we have a new generational line that goes directly to the father's heart because we have come out of his bosom.
What does that mean in real-time? I can do the same thing Jesus does. As a matter of fact, that's exactly what he told us to do after the Holy Spirit came. We are to ask the father largely.
Why can we do that? Because our heavenly father will give us all things richly to enjoy.
And like he did to Jesus in John 5:20, he will show us all things also.
This is Father's Day weekend in our nation, and I am reminded again that my pattern as a father is to be like my heavenly father to my children. Throughout my child-rearing, I was conscious of making my decisions and judgments about my children as my heavenly father would.
If you have bitter memories of a father who did not understand you or did not know the love of a heavenly father. I encourage you to release that to the Lord and remember those things are buried and gone because you were new in Christ Jesus.
You have a heavenly father who cherishes and cares for you and tenderly guides you into all truth. So rejoice in this happy Father's Day.
