DON’T LOOK AT JUST ONE SIDE (RIGHT OR LEFT) OF THE SPIRITUAL SPECTRUM OF LIFE: LOOK AT BOTH BECAUSE IN THE PROCESS OF DETERMINING WHERE YOUR FAITH LIES IT MAY GET LOST IN THE CONFUSION OF NOT UNDERSTANDING.
The spiritual aspect of our life includes a wide range of levels (as we experience and learn we are elevated into the next level of our walk with YHWH, GOD, through Jesus), it expands beyond the border of the human imagination and is so varied and complexed we would be truly amazed. But when we follow after the Word (Jesus) its revelation becomes clear. But to truly understand the spiritual spectrum, we must get to know the Major and minor players. We need to know this to make a sound decision as to whose team we are going to play on: good or evil.
Let’s look first at who God is. Can He be classified with anything in heaven or on earth? Why not? What is His position on the scale between the two extreme opposite points; the points being good and evil? To see the full spectrum of life you must always desire to know and see the truth. Would you rather have another man over you that you can see, hurt, or destroy, has no special powers nor position, except what God gives him and you allow, cannot defeat the ultimate enemy (Satan), and cannot cause one thing to reverse itself or be still. Or would you rather come to know the One that is the Creator, the all-powerful, in control, GOD of all gods, Who is above all and everything? He, by design is the Spectrum.
When you look at only one side of the spectrum, (not really getting the understanding of either) and use it to try reason, classify, or make any sound decisions regarding YHWH, GOD, it is absurd. You cannot subject God nor anyone or thing, for that matter, to a one-sided agreement between you and yourself. That would suggest a state of confusion. All decisions are to be made from seeking the Truth. God cannot ever, be classified with other idolatry gods, deities, or the latest thing to worship, today, in any terms. Not according to Who He is or what position He holds, on a scale between two extreme or opposite points: He is the Creator of all things and Satan is part of His creation. Evil (devil) may tip the scale but Good (God) is winning. This is why we must see the whole because then you get not just a single view of it but the overall view of your life and what it entails.
Sometimes, instead of searching for the righteous answers, you get lost in the maize of yours and men’s minds. You choose to believe and go in the devil’s direction and choose to listen to man’s rhetoric and misguiding words over the Word (Jesus) of God; the answers to your questions are disturbed and decisions you make are most always shaky. But God’s works, are incomprehensible to us, unless we seek to find the answers through Him. And His thoughts on how He orchestrates answers and solves problems are too deep for us to fathom. It is crucial that we look and stay in His word so that we continue to see the Truth.
We must be very careful when seeking to find the truth regarding what we base our answers to life’s concerns and decisions on; it should not only be based on a worldly view which is at all times one sided. Man has little or no resistance to choosing to be a sinner over being a saint, simply because they are not versed in GOD’S WORD, WILL OR WAY. And, if you notice, to sin is very easy to do, unless you think about what you are doing (think on good things always) and when the bad thoughts come (want to steal, kill, get angry, hate, envious, sad, depressed, worry, no compassion, neglect, etc.) you must replace them with good and righteous ones (love, joy, praise, happiness, patience, peace, care for others, thankfulness, gratitude, belief, trust, etc.). But for those who choose to doubt the sovereign of God and are super skeptical and find it hard to believe that through all this misery and mess there is a glorious bright light at the end. And all of what is going on is “written” and will work out for the good of those who love and honor the LORD. To know the truth they should actually study, diligently, to show himself approved (so that he can find the proof for which he searches).
You see the world and it’s god have shown and spoke to man what he wants to see and hear, and all seems good and is prosperous. Man has no bowing down and worshipping all the material things set before him and being tantalized by the lies that binds him. Satan make it easy to sin because he is the father of lies, confusion, and all other things that go against the will of GOD. To get to really know God, you must study His Word to see how much He loves us and what He has prepared for us while we are earth bound and for eternity. After you have gotten the facts, then and only then will you be able to see that when it comes to experiencing a long, loving, happy, and peaceful life, while journeying to our eternal home with God, there is no need to try and compare YHWH, GOD, with any other means of spiritual or natural (both are the Lords) satisfaction because YAH, will outweigh the others in the final outcome of life.
See who offers the best path to follow (even when it gets bumpy at times) The One (Jesus), who reveal the whole spectrum of life, so that we have a say in who we commit ourselves to, build our relationship with, follow the open path set before us; all which determines the quality of life we experience and how we are to live it. Or will we choose to be subject to the one who gives no rhyme or reason to you but what he offers is based on total destruction of your soul (to take you from the love of God and His good plan for your life and place you in a state of sin, total darkness, and disarray), as it is being done today and man is totally oblivious to it. Their minds have been deceived into thinking that it is them who are in control; a thought authored by Satan.
YHWH, God, is on every side of the spectrum, in some form or fashion (He created it). He gives us the ability to choose right or wrong, there is not an in between. But when we fall, and all of us do at times, He is there, when we ask, to forgive us pick us up, dust us off, and help us to continue on our way. So, before we start making life’s decisions which will have profound effects on our lives, which makes us back track and start over again, we must always converse with the LORD to know which direction He will have us to go.
Ask for wisdom, have faith that you will grow in it enough to receive knowledge and get understanding to see the full spectrum of life, to encourage your heart to change your mind as to how you see the TRUTH; not hold on to the LIE. GODS GOT IT NO WORRY NO FEAR.
Isaiah 26:3
3 Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.
Colossians 2:1-10
2 For I would that ye knew what great conflict I have for you, and for them at Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face in the flesh; 2 That their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ; 3 In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. 4 And this I say, lest any man should beguile you with enticing words. 5 For though I be absent in the flesh, yet am I with you in the spirit, joying and beholding your order, and the stedfastness of your faith in Christ. 6 As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him: 7 Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving. 8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. 9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. 10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:
Hebrews 11:1-3
1 Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. 2 This is what the ancients were commended for.
3 By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.
Psalm 16:11
You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.
2 Peter 3:2
That you should remember the predictions of the holy prophets and the commandment of the Lord and Savior through your apostles,
2 Peter 1:21
For no prophecy was ever produced by the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.
James 1:21
Therefore put away all filthiness and rampant wickedness and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.
