DANIEL180 DANIEL180: IF GOD WERE TO ASK ME.... How do you walk in my Spirit my friend?

"Only you know my Lord!"

The Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil was appealing to their eyes as Good for food to feed their flesh but the result ends up being Evil that feeds my mind.

This is why the Owner of the Garden said, "When you walk in my Spirit you will not fulfill the cravings of the Flesh."

Suddenly I realize the cravings of the Flesh that seem so Good in the Garden comes from my eyes. My eyes are the Windows of the Knowledge which causes my Flesh to Crave.

What I see on the Tree of Knowledge called TV and the Web these days. What I see is how I am going to respond.

When I am offended by others I am in reality being set up by my enemy. When I am wronged the enemy draws me in convinces me that I am better then this! I don't deserve this! I get to have an excuse to get defensive and regretful! I get to have an excuse to be bitter, angry and complain.

When I respond this way it is not Responsible. it is my flesh and mind finding excuses to fall back into my addictions for relief saying,
"I'm the only one that has ever been treated this way! I deserve to have relief from all this anxiety and depression!

The enemy uses these types of things in my life that seem Good to my Eyes and very reasonable to the knowledge if my mind but are far from Good as these things pull me away from Trusting in my Redeemer.

When I don't Trust the Owner of the Garden and His Playbook I grab whatever I can to get relief when I am in doubt. The enemy then plays me like a fiddle.

This is on me and no one else as I have been given the right to Tend His property. This right comes with Responsibility! I have been created just as Adam was. For he was created from the dust of the earth and therefore so was I. I had nothing to do with my being here so I have no right to question the Owner who put me here.

When I feel differently it is my Pride and as my Redeemer always reminds me in His Sacred Scrolls , "Pride Goeth before a fall!"

The Owner of the Garden my Redeemer said,

"Here is what I said when everyone thought I came to take on Caesar. They were very surprised when I said,

"Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you."
Matt 5:11-12

Now I know I must remain Humble with Respect, Honor and Trust knowing my Redeemer has both of our best interest in mind at all times.

Knowing this there is really nothing to Ponder!

I must Want to Walk in the Spirit so I respond the way my Redeemer says,

"Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God."

JUST GO NOW!
NO EXCUSES!
