We spend a lot of time wondering who we are. It is almost like there is an intentional efforts to skew our identities. And, there is. If we were to walk in who we should be this world, this life, would be dramatically different.

One of the discoveries I made over the years is “bad parents make bad parents”. The cycle of relationships tend to repeat in following generations unless there is some trigger, some impetus to change the cycle. That comes with making a decision to change. It is even easier when the decision to walk with God is made, and a lifestyle of learning from God begins.

Jesus had come to be one of us, perfect in relationship with God, the Father. Jesus lived his life as example that Man could walk with God in perfect unity. Then, he traded that life to fulfill covenant promises made so that we can have that same life of unity with God, the Father. Because of what Jesus did, we can be one with the Father; if we accept it and walk in it. Many, too many, are passionate in their belief that what they are doing is right; even when it is wrong. Jesus prayed, while on the cross being mocked and ridiculed, “Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.”[1]

It was as if the world had gone crazy. Young men, the best and brightest, those full of hope, were thrown into a churning machine where many perished as soon as they arrived. Millions of Europe’s best hopes expired in the trenches of the battlefield. It was war at its worst. It was dubbed the “war to end all wars”. It ended out of exhaustion on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918.

The Church and the World struggle with the message of Jesus Christ because it is too challenging yet too simple. When Jesus paid for all of it – whatever was or is in the way of you becoming one with the God of the Bible – it became too simple. Before Jesus did what he did there were all of these requirements to righteousness: meaning to be in right standing with the God of the Bible. After Jesus did what he did the complicated challenge became “what’s in my heart, why do I do what I do, how does that honor the God of the Bible”?

There is no doubt the Cross of Christ is controversial. Why would a deity have His son die so brutally for others? For others who mostly did not know Him nor really know or acknowledge His son? It was a stopping point in history; a turning point for Man. The God of the Bible made a trade.

“GOD is GOD and Jesus Christ is Lord”
We should, at all times, pray.
o Luke 18.1; 1 Thess. 5.16-18
Intercession:
* Take up for yourself their case
* Take their place in prayer
* Advocate for them
Isaiah 46.9-10 NIV
“Remember the former things, those of long ago; I AM GOD, and there is no other: I AM GOD, and there is none like ME. I make known the end from the beginning, from ancient times, what is still to come. I say: My purpose will stand, and I will do all that I please.”

Three things are required for faith to work: faith, acts of faith, and ability to deliver. Faith only works when it is actually faith. Faith only works when your every action validates your faith. Faith only works when the one in whom you have put your faith can actually deliver.
BCDR Faith puts you into that category of people who see with their eyes what their hearts knew all along. They see the fruits of their faith manifest. They receive a faith harvest.

“Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.”(1)
Him. It is all about Him. If you met Him you would know. He is life. He is contentment. He should be our objective. Not His stuff. Not our relationship to Him. Not our adherence to His precepts. Just Him.
Doc Rogers writes....
