“Salvation belongs to the Lord” Psalm 3:8
God spoke to me last night about understanding the reality of the gift of salvation and the relationship of God to man.
Salvation is God at work in a human being. It begins with God and has no ending. Salvation is God transforming you into His character. You have no control over your salvation or the ability to manipulate this gift to your advantage.
Salvation is yielding to God without any purpose. Salvation is not writing your own script; you allow God to do with you as He pleases.
Salvation is the work of breaking your compulsive behaviors and fleshly desires.
Salvation is living by faith with obedience to the voice of God.
Salvation has nothing to do with religion. You worship God in Spirit and truth.
You lose your rights to the will of God.
Salvation does not operate on human logic or make any sense in how God directs your pathway.
The goal is to live in oneness with God without seeing any purpose or goal for your life.
Salvation can be nourished by prayer, meditating on the Word, listening to the voice of God, and living under the authority of the Holy Spirit.
The practice of religion, doing works or keeping laws will not enrich your salvation. It will deter you from the heart of the Living Christ.
We attempt to manipulate God by thinking if we do something good for God He is under an obligation to bless us. This is a heresy perpetuated by religion. The blessings of God come by your faith in Christ and in His perfect timing.
Salvation is asking God how you can please Him without any strings attached.
Salvation is the revelation of Christ in the life of a sinner!
