Job 24:13 –“They were in God’s world; BUT they knew not His ways; nor did they walk in His paths.”

Today, I read this passage in Job and realized it would demand more thought but spoke of a present condition.   It was Job 24:13.   Notice the words “In His world.”   Where else could they be on Earth?  This is His world, right?  But take that into the realm of the Spirit, and it cries out that they witnessed His majesty but ignored or rejected Him.   Submission is first before knowing His ways and the ability to walk in His paths.

In 2 Corinthians 3, Paul spoke about the veil covering the revelation of Who God is.   They read the Word but are in darkness.    How many go to church, pray, read the Bible, and declare they are Christians but Do Not Know God, His Ways, or His Paths?  They go through the motions without transformation.

• How we talk and think is revelatory about where we are spiritually.   

2 Cor 4:13 – “We have the same spirit of faith; for it is written, I believed and therefore have I spoken; we also believe; therefore, we also speak.”

• What we truly believe is manifested in our words and deeds.

At the end of that chapter, he identifies the results of that level of belief and knowing (intimacy) with God.

There is a place in God where there is no weariness, even in the darkest hours of trial.   Life’s difficulties, disappointments, and loss are viewed as of little importance in light of what we will have eternally.   That is what we have now in the realm of spirit.

We are New Creations in Christ.  We call those things that are not as though they are.  We see the finished product, not just the process.   We believe; therefore, we say what God has said, believe what God says, and act upon that belief.

With those promises as our foundation and hope, we determine that Nothing will defile or defeat us.  We are living manifestations of God’s love, peace, purpose, and power. We are overcomers who know Him, see His path, and are transformed and inspired by His ways. We are living epistles that people can read and see God.

I encourage you to receive your heritage, believe your heritage, and live victoriously.  It is who you are, so be who you are!

Have a great day walking in the fullness of His Provisions!
