My Morning Thoughts: Coming to Jesus to Learn From Him
Recently, I thought I was going through the trying of my faith in a lot of areas in my life ...everything from family to finances. But the more I prayed about it, God showed me it's a training rather than a trial or a test. I was being taught of God to trust in him in a deeper way.
Through the unnerving situation, somewhere during all that was going on, the Spirit led me to read Matthew 11:28-30 and I saw how God wanted me to come to HIM and LEARN from Him. I had read this scripture, God knows how many times before and I thought I had an appropriate understanding. But this time it was different. My needs were different. My burden was extremely heavy. I needed to touch Heaven.
I had such a burden this time around. There was nothing or no one that was able to console me let alone help me. So this scripture pulled something out of me and took on a deeper meaning. Then Jesus (Yeshua) began his work in me to TEACH me what he meant by "learn of me and come to me ." I was faced with a detrimental situation being pressed on all sides, inside and out and I had nowhere to turn but to God.
I had to look deeper than my flesh, the help of man, the help of my family, what the world was saying to do, the help of my own mind, my own thoughts, I had to set all aside because I saw how vain all of it was. None of these things was of any help to me. I believe that God is showing me the difference between help from him- the heavenly, his favor- and the difference between the flesh -the previously mentioned. So I had learned to identify the arm of the flesh and the supernatural power of the God most high my heavenly father.
That was comforting!
It became apparent to me that the truth is what it is, we have been translated from the power of the of darkness to the kingdom of his dear Son Col 1:13. A whole different operation, a whole different way of life. A different way of thinking. Proving that all things ARE new and everything for the children of God COMES FROM THE HEAVENLY REALM the Kingdom Realm! Heb 11:3
There was nothing that I was used to supporting me, that was able to help me so I need it to get rid of the whole mindset, the old man, the old way of thinking on a deeper level and come to Jesus and LEARN of him.
The journey is not over the lesson is being learned from Jesus from faith to faith as I live from day to day.
So, how did it turn out...I needed to swap out my burdens for His and to abide in His Grace taking hold of it to grow and to trust in him. His power is being manifested. It seemed more import for me to learn these things than to receive my need being met because in the spirit it was already taken care of.
Not only did I receive help I needed, after I learned the truth, but his amazing favor showed up and the Grace to receive it came and rest is in my heart.
I am Thankful, humbled and in awe of the power of God working mightily!
