1 | What is the heavenly calling? | Heb 3:1 | always4him | 111789 | ||
This verse is supposed to be me… a Christian… a person who has accepted Jesus Christ into my heart… so then… consider (think, judge, deem, mull over, reflect on, believe) Jesus. I think of how God has called me to know Him more, more deeply… not just on a shallow worship foundation, but a more intimate walk… where do I go from here as I read this above verse? I know that I have a passion to know Him more.. I feel a determined purpose ignited in my soul! (Philippians 3:10 [For my determined purpose is] that I may know Him [that I may progressively become more deeply and intimately acquainted with Him, perceiving and recognizing and understanding the wonders of His Person more strongly and more clearly]) I know this is what I want, but clearly my plans and my purposes interfere with this… clearly I want my own way, my frustration, discouragement and lack of trust witnesses to this. I want God to do things my way, I want to dictate my plan.. I think it is better.. I think I know best what I want. I wonder if the problem is found in the above verse where it says if I am consecrated and set apart for God … Who share in the heavenly calling… What is the heavenly calling? Do I share in it? Is my heart undivided when it comes to the heavenly calling? I don’t know. I am not sure what this heavenly calling refers to. Do any of these verses explain the heavenly calling? Is there a verse that does? I want to know if I am sharing in the heavenly calling! Philippians 3:14 (amplified) I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. John 17:3 (amplified) "This is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent. Philippians 3:3 (amplified) For we [Christians] are the true circumcision, who worship God in spirit and by the Spirit of God and exult and glory and pride ourselves in Jesus Christ, and put no confidence or dependence [on what we are] in the flesh and on outward privileges and physical advantages and external appearances-- |

2 | Does God Say No For Greater Good? | Heb 2:14 | always4him | 111785 | ||
Is this verse saying to me that Jesus does not always deliver us from the hard things of life, the places where dreams die, the places of extreme betrayal, the places of hurtful disappointments, the physical sickness that rack our body, the places of no understanding…. Is this verse saying that because like Him, Jesus “going through” the death was more valuable and brought more life than if He was to be delivered from the process. Going through death of dreams, hopes, plans… going through physical disease… could it be that we don’t see good the same ways as God does, He sees this as good because it voids out the power of evil, making no effect the power of death… the devil’s power… it voids it… God has a greater plan… it is not our way.. isn’t that better than asking to be totally relieved of the trial, temptation or suffering and God says no or wait because He wants us to “go through” therefore making the devils scheme and power ineffective. Is this what this verse is saying? | ||||||
