The Supernatural - Living a Life of Holiness

1) It shapes our worldview

2) It defines how we walk through our life

3) walk by Faith - believe God whether I get the outcome I want or not. God moves according to His will and not according to our faith. If I can dictate to Him when He moves then I am playing God.

4) Fear holds us back...fear of the unknown

5) trying to establish our own kingdom

6) unbelief holds us back

7) living a life of holiness

How do we walk out the holy life. If I don't walk holy, no one around me will see holiness.

Galatians 5:16-18 you are not to do whatever you want.

A holy life has to be led by the Spirit and walked out according to Him and His will.

If you wake up and your day is all about you then you are NOT walking holy. Most Christians spend their whole week walking in the flesh however they want. If everything is about you then something is off.

Wake up everyday and be led by the Spirit.

Galatians 5:19 - 21 the acts of the flesh are OBVIOUS: sexual immorality, impurity, and debauchery, idolarty, hatred, discord, witchcraft, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambitions, dissensions, factions and envy, drunkedness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will NOT inherit the Kingdom of God.

Don't try to be the Holy Spirit and do His job by judging those walking in the sin. He hates that you walk in sin.

What a life CAN look like:

Galatians 5:22-24 The fruit of the Spirit love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, gentleness, faithfulness, goodness, self-control & crucify the flesh (the I wants/ I do's).

2Peter 1:3 -4 His divine power has given us everything to escape the corruption in the world caused by evil desires. 2 Peter 1:5 -11 for this reason, make every effort to add to your faith

So I'm re-opening my Bloggy Tour of Homes for Danielle @ Transforming Home 's Blog Home Party. These photos are from 2004, 2005, 2006 and most of the home is still the same although a bit more cluttered these days. :( My daughter's room has changed so I'll see if I can locate a picture of that for here.

It figures tonight would be a full moon...it's a sad, sad day!

I woke up this morning believing that the Lord wanted me to call an aunt of mine and apologize to her for being judgmental toward her...my flesh didn't "WANT" to do that but nevertheless, I did it. It was tough and the conversation wasn't as I had hoped but she "DID" grant me forgiveness. (Thank you Lord!) Heather and I decided to run over and see my uncle who is in the hospital...we got ALL the way over to St. Louis University Hospital and drove through the entire parking garage for 10minutes trying to locate a parking spot. We finally got parked and walked all the way from one of the furthest spots in the garage to the elevators and then across the cross walk to the hospital. Lo-n-behold the receptionist about came unglued when we didn't stop at her desk because apparently, kids are NOT allowed in St. Louis University Hospital...you have to be at least 18 years old...ugh! She told me I was welcome to leave my 10 year old in the lobby (yeah right!) wh...

Vacuum Canning Marshmallows

Image
A few weeks ago I happened upon a steal of a deal at my local Goodwill...I LOVE it when that happens! I snagged a deal on this handy little guy (in black) picture borrowed from Amazon.com (that I must confess I didn't have the SLIGHTEST idea what to do with until I hit some youtube videos) Got him for $9.95...I know a steal of a deal when I see it! I bought him for the vacuum part not so much the sealing part. I then purchased the jar attachments and hose so I could begin dry canning some goods that have been hanging out in bags for quite some time. Hope you enjoy this fun little video of our marshmallow canning: Happy Friday!
