Knowledge, Understanding, and Spiritual Identity

How do you want to live? Let me show you in Psalm 82 from verse 5. Let’s read this. They know not, neither will they understand. They walk on in darkness.

So what’s the result? Look at it. All the foundations of the earth are out of course. It says things are not working right. The principles that have been established in the earth are not working for a lot of people. Do you realize the Bible says the earth is full of the goodness of God? But why are so many people not experiencing the goodness of God? Because all the foundations of the earth are out of course.

Why? Look at this. Says they know not. Neither will they understand. So, what happens? They walk on in darkness. Look at the next verse. I have said I have said, he says, I already told you. I have said ye are gods. Look at it. And all of you are children of the Most High. But what? Look at the next verse.

But you shall die like men. Why are they dying like men? Says because they know not, neither will they understand. They walk on in darkness. So, you see, gods are living like men. When you are born again, you’re no longer an ordinary person. Doesn’t matter who tells you’re ordinary. The Bible says you’re not.

When you’re born again, you’re special to God. You are the offspring of God. He says ye are gods and all of you are children of the Most High. Children of the Most High. Imagine if you were hearing what the kind of message I’m sharing with you. Imagine if you were listening to this kind of message for the last 5 years.

Imagine what will happen in your life. Think about it. Because it matters what you listen to. Your life will always be the reflection, the outward reflection of what you’ve been hearing. You are the manifestation. Your life is the manifestation of all you’ve been imbibing; all you’ve been hearing and listening to and reading.

Transformation Through the Renewing of the Mind

Your outward life is the expression of the information inside you. You can’t be different from what you have inside. You want to change your life, change the inside first. You have to change your way of thinking. You have to change; you need material to give you new thinking. And that’s what I’m doing for you. But this time is too short. It’s not long enough. You need it after you’ve left here to keep hearing and providing yourself with more material to give you a new way of thinking. Let me show you. Let me show you. Go to Romans chapter 12. I’ll read to you from verse one into verse two. I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. Look at the next verse. And be not conformed to this world. Don’t be conformed to this world. He says, don’t let this world control your life. Do not be conformed to this world, but what? Be it transformed. Transformed it means metamorphosed. Hey, this is amazing. Be transformed by the renewing of your mind.

You see that? He says there will be a metamorphosis of your life. That means a transformation from one level of glory to another. So that if instead of living the life of a lover, you live the life of a butterfly. Yes. A complete metamorphosis. It goes like this. One stage to another, one stage to another. This week a change has taken place. You meditate on the word for another week, another change. Until people start saying, “What’s happened to you? You look different. You sound different.” and you say, “Yes, I’ve been I’ve been imbibing the word of God.” A new type of boldness will be in your heart, in your spirit.

A new type of confidence, not fake confidence, but real confidence in the word of God because it’s producing results in you. Then you find that your work is producing results. Everything you do turns into success. That’s the life that Christ gave you. Yes, sir. Let nobody tell you it’s different. The Bible says Christ in you the hope of glory. The hope of glory.

Christ in you. Not Christ in heaven. Christ in you. When you receive Christ into your heart, glory has come. Your life from then on is from glory to glory. Glory to glory. The Bible says the path of the righteous is as a shining light. Yeah. Your path gets brighter and brighter and brighter onto the perfect day.
