GOD'S VIEW
God sees us in a very different way than we see ourselves. It is as though we are stuck within a small box where we are limited in understanding, and mobility to explore our surroundings. God is completely outside of that box as He sees all things and knows not only the small self contained place where we are but He also can see all that is a complete mystery to us.
While we have some understanding of that kind of power most of us are just a little jealous of it. As humans we are very limited because of these bodies we are held captive within, but that is all for a very good reason. Our bodies are kind of like milk cartons that hold the product of life and personality that is our essence. God is interested in the product we are created to be to Him...not so much the container we are in here. Our body is called a temple which basically means that it houses all that is spiritual within us here. If we really look at how Jesus dealt with the Temple that the Jews were so caught up in for worship we find that Christ was all about taking our relationship outside of the Temple mount and allowing our spirit to grow through the increased experiences with God the Father. Our real purpose was to eliminate the space that separated us from God by becoming one with Him and with one another in Spirit.
When we begin to look at that view of life we can see how less important to God the physical things of this world become to Him. Very simply God looks on these containers we are housed in to hold us to this form of life until we have made a serious decision about our love and trust in Him. The purpose for these bodies and this life are all wrapped in that one thing. In God's mind all that really matters is our spirit which is the part of us created to live forever more. The efforts are made to give us the information that we need to make that choice for or against Him. As we look at this world we are in it also has been made for a purpose which it is fulfilling as time goes on. This place has from the very beginning been a prison which has held evil. This evil has been locked away in chains unable to fully effect the lives we have lived here until it is set free for a time to wander the earth seeking whom and what it may devour. It is beyond time for the church to awaken to the fact that this is very real for us. If you feel as though your physical life is in danger ...you are right it is. If you are a Christian you are among the first to be targeted.
We have an obligation as Children of God to fulfill the purpose for which we were created, and that purpose is to become one with God and one with one another through Christ. Our Father is looking at this creation with completely different eyes than we are. While we are trying to patch up the mud huts we live in, and we are so concerned about the mud ball we are on. The fact is that everything is under God's control...He already has a purpose for this world we are in so it is not being wasted...it is just going to return to it's original state as a prison when God is finished with it. Have you ever thought why God put us on the top of a prison rather than create a new and different place for us? How simple is it to take those with Him that He can trust and love while leaving those who are corrupt behind in this prison. God is not fooled and He is not mocked no matter what we may think. The situation that we face right now is simply that we are living in the last days before God completes the plan that He has set into action all along. This is the final days before His judgment on the creation called mankind. When Christ comes again it will be to bring a final judgment to those whom have been given the chance to accept His offer to them, and that time is quickly running out. I cannot help what we want to believe...that we can make everything somehow better by ourselves. The fact is that we are not now or ever have been in control of what is happening; we are here in this body for a purpose...to make a decision this day as to whom we will serve. Is it God or is it self? The decision is yours. May you richly bless God through your life in Him.
