Righteous Child Of Mine

The Lord is saying:  I Am here, and I Am with you.  Though you have troubles in the earth, this doesn’t mean that I Am distant.  I will never leave you and I Am always attentive to your needs.  Yes, there are times when things go awry and this leads to unpleasant circumstances, and you may even become very frustrated, but I Am still here with you.  Some of you have times when the frustrations of life seem to overwhelm you and you wonder what is happening.  It is in those times I Am teaching you to persevere.  This perseverance will prove you well in the days to come, for I tell you, things in the earth are not going to get any easier, but the way you handle them will.  When your neighbor who is far from Me begins to lose hope, they will see you and wonder why you are so calm in the chaos, and then you have an opportunity to tell them about Me.  You may have told them about Me before and they didn’t listen, but now you have their full attention.  Now My Spirit is able to move and bring in life.  You are not act as the world, but as a righteous child of Mine. 

 

2 Cor 5:11-21 (ESV) Therefore, knowing the fear of the Lord, we persuade others. But what we are is known to God, and I hope it is known also to your conscience. 12  We are not commending ourselves to you again but giving you cause to boast about us, so that you may be able to answer those who boast about outward appearance and not about what is in the heart. 13  For if we are beside ourselves, it is for God; if we are in our right mind, it is for you. 14  For the love of Christ controls us, because we have concluded this: that one has died for all, therefore all have died; 15  and he died for all, that those who live might no longer live for themselves but for him who for their sake died and was raised. 16  From now on, therefore, we regard no one according to the flesh. Even though we once regarded Christ according to the flesh, we regard him thus no longer. 17  Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come. 18  All this is from God, who through Christ reconciled us to himself and gave us the ministry of reconciliation; 19  that is, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation. 20  Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us. We implore you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. 21  For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.
