I Will Guide You with My Eye

 

Psalm 32                                                                                                                     April 1, 2024

 

     I am not the fool.  I have tested this.  What David knew as he wrote and prophesied, our Lord clearly comes through with understanding.  He desires to lead His little ones with a look, even a slight glance.

     How many of us have had parents or grandparents we have known so well?  We could discern the expression on their face, the holding of their eyes to mean approval or disapproval. And how many of us have seen the joy or sadness when our actions affected them?  It is such a close thing when we know our hurts or comforts in them by the slight expression of their eyes.

     “Couldn’t you tell Grandpa was hurt?  No, he didn’t yell or have to cry, his gazing eyes told the story.”  “Grandma was filled with bubbles!  Her face lit up as she saw again the grandkids on her iphone.”

     We didn’t have to hear.  No great body language to signal us.  We so knew them that we read their souls through windows.

     Can we today have this?  Can we be so sensitive to our Lord’s feelings that He guides us by a simple look of His eyes?

      I testify of this.  It is not of my great doing.  God simply communicates with me this way.  I continually ask Him for His counsel, even in the smallest things.  With cognizance I am aware of His being within me.  That is what His scripture says.  His Spirit now is within me as I have elected Him as my savior and Lord.  He has filled me.  So, there is literally another being living inside of me.

     My pastor can attest to this.  It is the truth he has been preaching for so long now.  We indeed are new creations.  We have been rebooted with a new operating system called “Life.”

     So what does it mean to be sensitive to the Holy Spirit?  He indeed is a person.  He has a job to do.  I voluntarily asked Him to inhabit my body.  Another spirit in addition to mine.  He has overlaid His presence upon mine.  Together we work to animate this carbon character I call my physical presence, my temporary living facility, this vessel which confines me in this X,Y,Z dimensioned world.  Thank God we are spirits locked in to physical flesh.  The police would have a nightmare chasing wanted felons who refused to keep permanent habitations.  Call Ghost Busters!

     This is not a weird thing.  On the contrary, it is very Biblical.  He has created us as spiritual beings who are sensitive to Him and to each other.  I sense my wife’s presence even without sound.  So how much more do I feel God within me?

     When I say He guides me by His eye, I sense His look as I ask Him moment by moment for direction.  I am a man in my position of responsibility and authority who must make quality decision quickly, in real time.  I NEED HELP!  And He comes to me in this way.

     In the days of Seth, men began to call upon the Lord.  I have called, and He has answered.

God's Successive Revelations

  God’s Successive Revelations Search Me diligently, and I will reveal Myself to you.      Yah, that sound like something God would say.   I understand He revealed the Trinity to us.   I plead ignorance in Church history.   Some theologians, perhaps 400 A.D. came upon this gem that we hold true today.   The idea of the rapture is new on the Church radar.   Late 1800’s?      What if God revealed His truth to His people in time?   Surely, Solomon was the wisest man in his day, but did he know about Pentecost?   Daniel, the far seer, was only shown glimpses.   What did he know of Peter and miracles in the temple?   A certain king discovered God’s truth again and that made for a reformation, but what did he know of the beast standing in the sea?   God gives insight in His time.      I have trained seven children.   As young  children, I did not flood them with...

Cyclosporine

  Cyclosporine      Cyclosporine is an immunosuppressive drug given to keep the body from rejecting a transplanted organ.   In other words, the body knows its own and will fight foreign matter from being grafted in.   As a man with stage four kidney disease, this drug may come in handy.       So how is Christ our cyclosporine?   New must come.   In our natural state, our being fights what is not original.   Upon conversion, His Spirit enters in.   Mysteriously His Spirit intertwines with ours being permanently bonded together forever.   Hence, He is needed as we accept Him as our savior.      Acceptance is a huge thing.   What we allow into our heart, mind, and soul influences our spirit which animates our body.   We are as fortresses, walled cities with wooden gates hung upon steel hinges.   He gives us opportunity to stage keepers at each entrance.   They...

She Doesn't Tell You That You Are A Loser

She Doesn’t Tell You That You Are Loser Grace:  The incredible pink cushion between your screwed up decisions and the ramifications wrought by them. Mercy:  withholds the rod.  Grace says, “Now what?  Given you’ve gotten yourself into a marijuana muddied bowl of slime, would you like a hand up?”  She gets her hands dirty. “That’s ok, its just something I have to work through.”  And she does.  Her incredible prayer power burns a hole through overhanging clouds of gloom. My ears pierce in my usual confronting atmosphere.  An auto E.Q. does its job to focus the vibrations to the rear-view mirror.  Anger aligns my head to look straight into traffic.  Twenty minutes of a sub-woofer gets my energy out of the windshield. “Hey, you’re messing with my woman!”  We have an understanding.  She is to be under my wing.  I have violated before, running in a tangent to the graph.  I’ve learned not to overreact.  I conc...
