Most people believe that they can ‘think’ things into ‘manifestation’. Well, how does that explain entropy?…you know the law of Physics that proves all energy is diminishing…hence the reality of Death. Yup!

Bingo! You start out as an embryo. full of life, maximum potential, and then 80 years later
You are walking with a cane, wearing glasses and have trouble sleeping. Yeah. 
That’s Entropy!…Welcome to Death 101….so how can you think yourself out of Death?
Keep reading.
Soon after, I found true freedom in Christ. Not only from that season, but from past hurts and burdens as well.

Are you Serious?

All the Zen meditation, deep sleep, anti-aging bio-hacks will get you so far…but in the end. Your End. Our End remains inevitable. Yet remarkably people blow it off. Refuse to accept their reality. People really believe they are going to live forever. Are you serious?
 
Man is born once than appointed once to die, and then judgement. 
This is what we learn from the Law, the Prophets and by the Word in the 
New Covenant. What does this mumbo jumbo really mean? Here we go.
 
Truth be told, we are spirits confined to a body for period of time.
These bodies will eventually wear out, despite the mad race to replace all our body parts.
So, who made our spirit? And why? To what purpose? Let me tell you about a very famous person.
 
St. Augustine was a Christian a long time ago, but really his story is very current and most relevant.
He tried to have as much fun as possible. He enjoyed the life of pleasure. he maxed out on leisure and the drinking up ‘The Good Life’. Only one big, huge problem. A real dilemma. 
Despite all his efforts, he came to the same conclusion as King Solomon ….Life is empty…meaningless…without God. 
 
St. Augustine wrote once that the human heart has a vacuum. And nothing can fill that void. No not romance, adventure, education, success, toys, sex, drugs and rock n roll. Nope. In fact, the only variable that can fill the void inside our heart is God Himself. Why?
 
He created our spirit. God is our creator. We are made in His image. We are created for greatness and excellence. A well-known Rabbi called Nicodemus came once to meet Jesus in the middle of night. He wanted to know how to fill this void in his heart. Jesus said to him, “Unless a man is born again, he cannot enter the Kingdom of Heaven.” At first, he didn’t get it. But later, Nicodemus was one of the men who buried Jesus after the crucifixion. Nicodemus was to soon experience the eternal power of the resurrection, which is kernel of the story of the Good News! 
 
Yes, we are doomed to die. Physically that is. But spiritually we can have eternal life….but not by freezing your body till 2099. How then? The Good News is simple enough for a child: Faith in Christ’s work on the Cross. His death, as our substitute. And his resurrection as irrefutable proof that eternal life is His to give to us. Why?
 
Why?  
because God loves us. 
That’s right! 
God loves you.
Now that’s Good News!
 
Peace and Joy.

 

We now live in an era where, through Jesus, God wants to reveal and manifest himself to the world. In this era, God’s manifested presence is not meant to be rare or uncommon. It’s meant to be poured out everywhere. It’s meant to be a regular occurrence for believers to experience His presence manifested among us.

All these things uphold our freedom in Christ and allow for us to experience God’s manifested presence. Until Christ returns let’s keep walking in these things and in our assignment to help as many as we can to find and experience the freedom we have in Christ.

In the Old Testament God revealed and manifested himself at different times, but generally it was limited to a few and limited to one nation – Israel. In the New Testament we see that through Christ, God has chosen to manifest and pour out His Spirit on all people, from every nation whether young or old.
