By now you should know if you are part of the First Camp or Group Two. Read Post below should you need to freshen up your understanding!
Most of you who read this Blog have my agenda dialed in.
Number One. Is for all to have the information to decide where they are choosing to spend eternity.
Number Two. To encourage Believers to be Partakes of God’s Kingdom in ‘The Here and Now”!
Number Three. And not near, as important as the first two, is to gather my thoughts on How I see what is going on in this place we live, that is bound by “Time & Space”!
Again, Acts 17:11, not as I think, Nevertheless, to have other things to weigh where you are at, in your walk with (or without) God.
I believe this will lead to where we can mesh the secular truths with what God’s Word proclaims about what HE has put here before us to partake and participate in this HIS Kingdom.
A good place to begin is again to establish that we living in at least two different realms. See 2Co 12:2
I have talked about this before, yet will re-iterate in order to get this rolling. Again be cautioned that our filters built through our lives control not only how we see things, also influence how we think about any and Every thing. I spell those filters out in a little more detail HERE.
Rabbi Moses Maimonides in the 12th century realized by reading The Torah that there are at least ten dimensions. There are four that we are aware of; Length, Width, Depth/Height and Time. What is overwhelming is that there are six dimensions that we are not consciously aware of and only understood and explained by Quantum Physicists and little children. Do not worry, I am not going there. (For right now, anyway!) ;-)
Oh YEA! BUSINESS!
Keep in mind that there are Spiritual aspects of GOD’s Kingdom that some in Group One are not even aware of and some in Group Two utilize every day, though they call it something else.
We have touched on some of these things in the past, yet today … applied to Business. I will endeavor to spell out the Secular view and confirm with Scripture.
Controlled by those filters we think about what is important to the sub-conscious mind. Most of the time, we are not aware that it is in control. It will kill in the extremes to protect us and/or keep us comfortable. (Pro 23:7a for as he reasons in his heart, so is he!) and (Rom 12:2 And be not conformed to this age, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, in order to prove by you what is the good and pleasing and perfect will of God.)
It is a discipline to over come the old ways of thinking and to make deliberate changes that keep us in slavery on the plantation of old thoughts.
What we think about our self is reinforcing who we are and we fall trap to doing the same things the same way, expecting things to change and never seeing fruition. What we think about is actually drawing us from the now into the future of those things from the past. You might call this being in the ‘Loop Mode’.
In other words, whether group one or two, if what we think is Negative, that is “where we Were” which is controlled with “where we are”, which will keep us, “where we will be”! Moreover, the Contrary is, also true! I will use the verse, ‘the lamp of the body is the eye’ again. Mat 6:22&23;What you look upon with darkness will only reveal darkness and to look with light will, for the same reason show you the Positive!
Allow me to finish with this, which will compound, that spelled out above:
Mat 6:21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
Your Business is producing directly proportional to your thinking! Keep in mind, Group two knows this and acts accordingly. It is a Divine Law.
Group one has more going for it, yet like salvation, it needs appropriation. I hear believers over and over again make statements as, “If God wants me rich, HE will drop it on me!” or “If God wants me to speak in tongues, HE will slap me with it!” Or words to those effects. Nevertheless, for either to happen (Which may be a Thought in another post!) would mean, ‘A Bolt of Lightning and a Burning Bush’ happening at the same time!
In the next post we are going to look at what we say and how that effects our Business!
Until then, Be Blessed, 1 aka DP
