Participating in Resurrection Life

MELISSA–What are some practical ways to go about participating in resurrection life? Colossians 3:1 is a great place to start. It simply says to seek the things above. In our modern culture what that means is to put down the phone, turn off the TV and make time with God and His word our number one priority. Is that easy? No. I get it. However, our enemy’s major tools in keeping us occupied so we don’t find out our identity are the news, media, social media and entertainment industries. These have been the primary ways evil has kept Americans brainwashed and zombified. We have trusted our lives with celebrities of all kinds that are paid to spew agenda and twist truth. Turning these influences off will help you to be part of the biggest overturning in history. That overturning is a matter of taking dominion on this earth.


Unshakeable Knowing

Kathy — I  think we sometimes mistake tenacity for faith.  Tenacious means extreme persistence; relentless or enduring.  Tenacity is awesome for getting and keeping the Word in our thinking so it can be an overriding priority in our lives, but tenacity is not faith.  Tenacity is not our goal but it is a powerful element of getting to the goal.  Our goal is faith, a confident, unshakeable knowing.  If faith becomes a matter of tenacity and strain, we’ve simply stopped short of the goal.  The mark of reaching and standing in faith is rest.
