Luke 2 -34:35
The sermon blessed them and said to Mary,the baby’s mother”This child is destined to cause many others to rise. He has been sent as a signh from God, but many will oppose him. As a result, the deepest thoughts of many heartswill be revealed. And a sword will piece your very soul”
Simion prophesied about what Jesus was going to do in Israial. People will be build up and others will fall. Many are called but few are chosen, quite often its the people that you would never expect to do well that God lays his anointing upon. This is so he can be glorified to show that anything is possible when he is involved
I say that we as believers are God’s chosen people and that we are Israel. The meaning of Isriaial is God contended or wrestles with God
Whether you know it or not, you as Christians are in a spiritual battle, at war between the Spirit and the flesh, between right and wrong
I am not sure if you can remember them but its a bit like them old cartoons with an angel on one shoulder and a demon on the other whispering in our ears. You have been presented with a choice to oppose what the scriptures tell you or to stand on what it says. Let’s be honest about this, we all know the difference between right and wrong.
You will know them by their fruits which means our actions should be radiating the fruits of the spirit. Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness, Goodness, Faithfulness, Gentleness and Self-control. There is no law against these things .
The deepest thoughts of our hearts will be revealed by the waywe are towards others. For whats on the heart overflows from the mouth. Actions speak louder than wordsand the sword
