Finding Jesus: Your Guide to Spiritual Clarity

lastwordrecovery

“The people found Jesus on the other side of the lake.”

(John 6:25 )

You recognize the clues to your destiny which come to you from Jesus. Your imagination is the canvass on which He paints the portrait of your future.

You have been given special assignments, but you are unable to understand them until you identify Jesus in the details.

You find Jesus to be a loyal and devoted friend, defending you and keeping you from danger.

You look for Him when you feel lonely, scared, angry or hurt. You look for Him when you can’t find your way. You look for Him when you feel insecure or uncertain of your worth.

You also look for Him when you experience an abundance of joy and just need to express it.

You credit Him for the way you have been made whole and your gratitude spills over into heartfelt praise.

And just as the people in this gospel story found Jesus on the other side of the lake, you too will find Him waiting, when it’s your time to cross over.

lastwordrecovery

“May the Lord bless you and keep you.” (Numbers 6:24)

Being blessed by God, means you have been empowered to succeed.

The fear of failure may drift through your thoughts when you take on a project you feel inadequate to manage but knowing that you have been empowered to succeed by the Creator of the universe, you set aside your fears and face each challenge head-on.

Having been blessed by God, you see His supernatural power at work in all your efforts.

You realize that He is able and willing to make a success out of everything – even the things you thought were failures.

Empowered to succeed, you rise each day with a fresh enthusiasm to find your divine assignment and fulfill it to your best ability.

Sometimes your successes do not appear all that successful at first. There are times that your initial attempts at success may look a lot like failures.

But you live by faith, not by sight, so you do not view failure as the end, but rather, the beginning of a new approach.

“With our own eyes we saw Him work miracles and do terrifying things to our oppressors.” (Deuteronomy 6:22)

Assured that the Creator of the Universe is interested in what happens to those who are harmed by human injustices, you remain alert to any violation of basic human rights.

God promises to hand down a ruling which is just, bringing integrity where there was once corruption; and equality where there was once disparity.

You know that you are called to speak for those who have no voice. You feel impassioned to stand up for those who are crippled by prejudice and inequity.

Like Jesus, you reject any ideology which promotes bigotry or derision.

You often cry out to God about this particular aspect of the human condition. You pursue all peaceful paths available to you in order to eliminate its ugly presence in society.

In answer to your passionate prayers, the Commander of Angel Armies, is empowering other individuals who will help you advance your cause and shed light on the social injustices which have plagued society for centuries.

No human will be able to stand against His plan. Justice will be served, and honor will be given where honor is due.

Experiencing Divine Power: The Quantum Leap

lastwordrecovery

“Then they were glad to take Him into the boat. At once the boat came to land at the place they wanted to go.” (John 6:21 )

When His disciples welcomed Jesus into the boat, they suddenly arrived where they were headed. It was a quantum leap following an amazing chain of events which the disciples would never forget.

The happenings that night demonstrated the divine power of Christ which exists outside of time and space. 

You have your own experience with such supernatural phenomena. There is no rational explanation, but it seems that the less time you spend with Jesus, the less you accomplish and the more exhausted you become. On the other hand, when you spend more time with Him, you seem to be able to accomplish significantly more than you planned, without feeling weary…

“There will be two of every kind of bird, animal, and crawling thing. They will come to you to be kept alive.” (Genesis 6:20)

You care deeply about animals, and you understand their fundamental value to the ecosystem of this planet. You sometimes prefer the company of animals to humans because you appreciate their non-judgmental acceptance.

You realize that the human connection to animals is a deeply spiritual bond. Medical breakthroughs and scientific discoveries are dependent upon the animal kingdom to guide the way.

Animals play a vital role in the development of life-saving medical procedures. Throughout the centuries, animals, both domestic and wild, have been the inspiration for  countless human inventions and technological advancements. By studying and mimicking the unique traits of other species, humanity was able to survive.

You are intrigued by the interconnectedness of the ecosystem. You hold a deep sense of honor and respect for conservationists. You admire people who preserve the natural habitats of untamed creatures who reside on this planet.

You are a good person because you hold deep appreciation for the wild world.

Significance and personal value comes from pursuing your purpose in the Kingdom. You are passionate about sharing the grace you have received and sharing the good news of hope carries its own reward. 

You find the true value of life from a spiritual perspective. You know that life is more important than mere possessions. The true value of life far exceeds things which can only be measured by human currency…

Sheltered by Faith: Understanding Noah’s Journey

lastwordrecovery

“But I promise to keep you safe in the ship, with your wife, and your sons and their wives.” (Genesis 6:18)

The story of Noah began with a simple request from God to build a boat, long before the rain appeared. God selected a good man who was living in the midst of a violent, unjust, hate-filled world. 

Much like Noah, you are a good person living in a very hostile time. And, like Noah, God has selected you for a special task which will protect your family and preserve the values you treasure.

Knowing that it is the Spirit who protects you from evil, you and your loved ones remain in a position of safety and security.

The forces of darkness cannot overpower the Creator of the Light and in this light, you gather your family to safety.

No matter how brutal or relentless the storms of life may be, you and your loved ones are sheltered in the safety of God’s protection.

How Patience with Yourself Leads to Spiritual Growth

lastwordrecovery

We prove ourselves by our purity, our understanding, our patience, our kindness, by the Holy Spirit within us, and by our sincere love.

(2 Corinthians 6:6)

Happy Birthday 6/6

You have an amazing ability to make others feel accepted.  You are known for creating a safe space where people can relax and be themselves.

Sometimes, it seems your patience is offered to everyone except yourself. You struggle to accept your own shortcomings. You are often very impatient with that one child of God you see in the mirror each morning.

You accept the various weaknesses and imperfections of others readily, yet you often expect perfection of yourself.

Even though God has given you an amazing ability to be patient and tolerant with others, you struggle to be consistent in applying that patience to your own shortcomings as well.

But as you practice patience with yourself, you will begin to sense a deeper awareness of the special place you hold in the heart of God.

Creating Safe Spaces: The Role of a Peacemaker

lastwordrecovery

“Surely there is someone in your group wise enough to resolve a complaint between two believers.”

(1 Corinthians 6:5)

In a world filled with humans fighting for power through complaints and arguments, you choose to exhibit the power of praise and peace instead.

You stand out as a beacon of light to those who are lost in a swirling sea of conflict. You are a peacemaker.

The Spirit of God enables you to create a safe space in which differences can be addressed and forgiveness can flow. You are able to make peace when there is conflict and hold onto it when there is a chance it might slip away.

Others rely on your logical input when settling disputes or searching for a reasonable compromise. As you walk in the peace of Christ, which passes all understanding, you are able to guide others toward a common goal.

The peace you bring to your circle of influence is often the glue which repairs broken relationships and holds organizations together.

It is one of your most intriguing talents and even you don’t know exactly how it happens. All you know is, you are delighted to see peace win, and you are thrilled to be a part of making it happen.
