“That they be one as we are one” John 17:22
It is very difficult to stay tuned into Jesus.
This is because He doesn’t think or act like a human being. Jesus has no ego, operates with unconditional love and makes decisions by His words.
You and I are ego driven people whose priorities are prosperity and a quality lifestyle.
These two personalities are in conflict with each other; living for self or living for God.
Religion won’t fix this problem; it covers up the conflict with regulations and works.
The question becomes how do you find the perfect will of God in a world that hates Jesus.
The first step is to recognize a human being can never match up to the standards of Jesus. We need the Living Jesus to personally guide our footsteps, speak to us and protect us from the evils of the world.
This happens through the Holy Spirit. He is the life of Jesus and sealed in all believers. He can help you do the perfect will of Jesus in an imperfect body.
It is essential for the Christ follower to submit to the authority of the Holy Spirit and be in contact with Him at all times. He is your portal to the presence and reality of the Living Christ.
The human nature at birth is a desire to live for self and defy the ways of God. The believer can shift into this nature in a split second.
To keep grounded in Jesus the believer must practice the discipline of pray, read the Bible and listen for the voice of Jesus.
Seek the perfect will of Jesus by committing your works each day to Jesus and live in oneness with Jesus anchored to the Holy Spirit.
Inquire of Jesus in all your decision making and do not make hasty or compulsive decisions. The counsel of Jesus is perfect and brings His order and simplicity into your life.
