Will of the Heavenly Father, Rather than Our Will, Shall Be Done on This Earth (Edited by ChatGPT)
Our faith is
special and easy to follow because the truth is served in a form that is easy
to digest. God first prepared the way for the truth through the law and the
prophets, until it was concluded by prophecy and the ministry of John the
Baptist, who was the forerunner of the Lord.
Then God came
in human form, not only to teach us perfection but to show us perfection in His
life. We touched perfection, we spoke with perfection, we saw perfection, and
we listened to perfection — as perfection was born, grew up, lived, slept, got
hungry, suffered, was tempted by the flesh, prayed for the cross to pass, and
died as a man, only to rise from the dead and sit at the right hand of the
Heavenly Father.
We know the
nature of perfect faithfulness because His name is the Lord Jesus Christ, the
one who never knew sin or disobedience. For us, faith should be easy because we
have seen the perfect temple. Yet, we still debate over the design of the
perfect temple. We have seen perfection, but we want our own abominations and
religious norms to serve as the image of the faithful. Just look at Jesus and
know Him as perfection — and grow toward Him. This is how simple our faith is:
do what Jesus did, or get close to it, knowing He is perfection and you are a
failure saved by grace. The truth is not hidden. The truth is Jesus. But we
resist letting Jesus take over our lives by refusing to die to ourselves.
Instead, we prefer a cocktail of faith — some from Jesus, some from our
preferences, some from our culture, and some even from the devil himself.
How did Jesus
live? Jesus lived in service to His Father and our Father, the Heavenly Father.
He never did anything for Himself but always to please the Father. He was
obedient, taking human form and lowering Himself from the life of God to the
life of man for over 33 years. He was willing even unto the cross, suffering at
the hands of people and the devil. He was born to serve the will of His Father,
lived and worked for that same will, and died for it. His desire was to ensure
the will of the Heavenly Father would be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Jesus never had adequate rest, let alone time to say, “I am happy,” “I am
wealthy,” “I am famous,” or “I am successful.” He ran to serve the Father, even
running to the cross in obedience, despite the temptations of the flesh.
Since the will
of Jesus was only the will of the Heavenly Father, He never doubted that what
He asked in faith would be given to Him. He did not decide based on what He saw
or heard, but through the eyes and heart of the Heavenly Father. The Father
worked through Him. As Jesus and the Father are one, and because Jesus did only
the will of the Father — nothing more, nothing less — He never doubted that
what He commanded would come to pass. He never doubted the might, knowledge, or
holiness of the Father. He always knew the will of the Father and trusted that
what He asked and ordered would become reality.
As God has no
doubt that His word will come true — and as God created everything through His
word — He demands that we have the same faith in Him that He has in Himself,
since He desires to work through us. If we doubt God's might and knowledge, He
will not find it convenient to work through us. He will take His Holy Spirit
from us, and we will no longer see the finger of God at work. Even when God
says whatever you ask will be done, His condition is that what we ask must be
aligned with His will.
God gives us
His Holy Spirit to guide us from within — inside out. When we pray, God is
praying through us. When we speak, God is speaking through us. When we work,
God is working through us. Even when we move mountains to the sea, it is God
moving them through us. His will is at work through us.
We are
crucified with Christ when we are baptized in water — dead to ourselves and
washed clean. Then we are born again in the Spirit to live by the Spirit,
guided by the Holy Spirit, by Jesus, and by the Heavenly Father. Now, we are
dead, but Jesus lives within us. We live for Jesus and die to ourselves. We do
the will of the Heavenly Father so that His will may be done on earth as it is
in heaven.
So faith says:
think like Jesus, live like Jesus, and operate like Jesus, because you are dead
and Jesus lives in you. Let Jesus perform miracles through you. Believe that
whatever Jesus commands through you is truth. When Jesus speaks healing through
you to the sick, know the sick are healed — not by your word, but by Jesus’
word. Jesus is speaking — do not doubt it. That is the truth.
We as human
beings are nothing. No matter what the desolation of abomination says — he who
corrupted Eve and Adam, who corrupted the assemblies of the Lord, who corrupted
the dead religions, and who is the anti-Christ that was, is, and is to come — we
are nothing. But God is everything. Our purpose is to die and fade away so that
Perfection may live in us. Then what we chant will not be “I am rich,” “I am
wealthy,” “I am healthy,” “I am famous,” “I am beautiful,” or other nonsense.
Instead, we will cry, “God is Holy! God is Holy! What a Holy God!”
God says: My
will is holy, all other wills are sin. Yes, sometimes God spoils us by letting
our will become His will. He may say, “You shall eat bread,” and we might ask
for meat with it. Sometimes, He even adds meat. He did it with Moses. For
Fathering sometimes means giving children cookies and cola for their joy to be
complete. But God will not turn our lives into fairy tales. Life is not a movie
to be left to the whims of children.
If we want our
word to create the world, it is simple: let our word be God's word. Let us die
to ourselves and be born again in the Spirit of God, guided by the will of the
Lord Jesus Christ. We must die so that God may live in us, so that we may walk
in His perfection. Then our will shall create the world — because it is no
longer our will, but God's.
What the world
needs is not fools creating reality. What the world needs is a Father who
teaches the way of perfection. The foolish cut ten times after measuring once.
The wise measure ten times and cut once. But our God cuts it right in one step.
I want my will to be about cutting perfectly on the first try — and that
happens when my will dies and the will of God takes over. Our freedom is in our
death, for Perfection is better than both human wisdom and human foolishness,
better than the junky of the ’70s and ’80s reborn in the image of the “gods” of
their own delusions.
Think
otherwise? Then go solve the world’s problems. Try being moral and less
self-obsessed. Say every morning: there is plenty for all, there is good for
all, there is peace and stability for all — declare goodness not just for
yourself but for everyone. Create a better world. Leave behind your
self-obsession and live for the common good. Let us see what fruit you produce.
A criminal may hide in the jungle of society and believe that crime is the way
— selling lies as life-giving gas and declaring that crime is wisdom. But can
criminals run a state? Solve the world’s problems by declaring alone. Go ahead.
Stop obsessing over yourself. Think of the common good. And show us your fruit.
