What does it mean that Jesus authors faith in your heart?

When you look to the Lord (2 Corinthians 3:16, Isaiah 45:22), the Father speaks the Word (Jesus) in some form of leading (John 1:1, 14, Hebrews 1:1-2).

If you receive that leading, Jesus authors faith in your heart (Hebrews 12:2, Romans 10:17). This is the faith of the Son of God, God’s Word. When you receive that faith, the Son of God is manifested in you in the form of belief you call “faith” (Galatians 2:20, 2 Corinthians 13:5). You believe, and yet not you, but Christ. At that point, you have the full authority of Christ to do the Father’s will (John 14:12, Matthew 28:18-20). You received the vision and see His image as if looking into a mirror in your brothers and sisters and yourself and realize who you are in Christ and how you fit into His body (Colossians 1:27, 1 John 3:2).

But Christ has not yet finished the work of faith. Faith without works is dead (James 2:26), which is why faith gives you access to grace (Romans 5:1-2, Ephesians 2:8).

And grace then abounds to you through Christ to do the work God has given you to do (2 Corinthians 9:8, Philippians 2:13). The Holy Spirit obeys the Father through you.

Your part is to yield (John 16:13-14, Galatians 5:16-17, Romans 8:14, James 4:7). You let go and let God (Romans 6:13, Romans 12:1).

He says the words by His power or does the acts by His power. That Word (Jesus) the Father spoke is the seed of the Sower that has found good ground in your heart (Luke 8:11, 15). This is transformation (Romans 8:29). It is Christ formed in you (2 Corinthians 3:18, Galatians 4:19). It is a measure of holiness added to you, and, in that thing, you are changed forever.

These minor changes continue from glory to glory (1 John 3:3, 2 Peter 1:5-8) until the day the work will be complete (Philippians 1:6, 2 Corinthians 3:18).

Ask God to answer these questions.
How does God speak the Word (Jesus) to you?
What does it mean that Jesus authors faith in your heart?
What is the power of God’s grace, and what does it do?
How does grace do God’s work through you?
How do you let go and let God?
Bonus questions:

What does it mean for the Holy Spirit to obey the Father through you?
What is the Seed that finds good ground in your heart?
How do these changes happen from glory to glory?
What does it mean to look to the Lord?
How is Christ formed in you?
What does the phrase mean: “faith without works is dead?”
Keep in mind that God doesn’t want you to ever disconnect from Him. He wants to flow through you constantly in knowledge, wisdom, and love.

Spiritual Maturity

God speaks. When you look to the Lord, the Father speaks the Word (Jesus) in some form of leading. If you receive that leading, Jesus authors faith in your heart. This is the faith of the Son of God, God’s Word. When you receive that faith, the Son of God is manifested in you in the form of belief. You believe, and yet not you, but Christ. Faith gives you access to grace. Grace does God’s work through you. You yield. Then the flesh dies a little bit and Christ is formed more fully in your mind.

2 Corinthians 3:18 “But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord.”

You yield to God’s Spirit

Romans 6:13 “Do not present the parts of your body to sin as instruments of wickedness, but present yourselves to God as those who have been brought from death to life; and present the parts of your body to Him as instruments of righteousness.”

God transforms you

Romans 6:19 “I am speaking in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh. Just as you used to offer the parts of your body in slavery to impurity and to escalating wickedness, so now offer them in slavery to righteousness leading to holiness.”

IMPORTANT: Righteousness is Christ working through you to do the Father’s will in the moment. Holiness is Christ permanently formed in you, which is the definition of spiritual maturity.

IMPORTANT: When the Father leads, He is the Sower. He sows the Seed (the Word, Jesus) into your heart. You can reject it. If you receive it, the Seed finds good ground and brings forth fruit. It also transforms you.

Ask God to answer these questions:

1. What happens when you yield to God’s Spirit?
2. How does God transform you?
3. What does it mean to present yourself to God?
4. What is righteousness?
5. How does righteousness lead to holiness?

Bonus questions:

1. How are you transformed into the image of Christ; what is the process?
2. How is that different or the same as you growing into Christ and becoming more like Him?
Keep in mind that God doesn’t want you to ever disconnect from Him. He wants to flow through you constantly in knowledge, wisdom, and love.

God leads you through Scripture and every means of divine revelation mentioned in Scripture.

God speaks. He leads, teaches, and corrects us. He speaks through Scripture and every means of divine revelation mentioned in Scripture. We hear His voice when a brother or sister in Christ speaks by the Holy Spirit. We look for the day when we only speak by the Holy Spirit. When the Father speaks, Jesus Christ (the Word or Utterance of God) authors faith in your heart. You have to be willing to receive this faith. You have to listen to the voice of the Father. God allows you to resist Him, and He forces Himself on no one.

That faith that comes gives you access to God’s grace. God’s grace is God’s power to do or say whatever the Father led you to do or say. You yield to His grace and allow His grace to flow in love through you to do the Father’s will.

Faith accesses grace

Romans 5:1b-2a “our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we stand.”

Ephesians 2:8 “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God,” Note that the grace is through faith.

Grace does God’s righteousness through you

James 1:22 “But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.”

James 2:17 “Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.”

1 Corinthians 15:10 “But by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace to me was not in vain. No, I worked harder than all of them—yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me.”

1 John 1:7 “But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.”

Ask God to answer these questions:

How does the process of receiving faith from God lead to your transformation?
What difference does your willingness to receive God’s faith make in this transformation?
How do you yield to God’s grace?
How can you actively yield to God’s grace in your daily life to allow God’s power to work through you?
Now you know the relationship between faith and grace as described in Romans 5:1-2, Ephesians 2:8. What does that tell you about your dependence on God’s power, rather than your own abilities for daily living?

Bonus questions:

Now that you see the Scriptures (James 1:22, James 2:17, 1 Corinthians 15:10) show the active nature of faith, what does it look like when you live out your faith through your works that are empowered by God’s grace?
Now that you know what it means to “walk in the light” as described in 1 John 1:7, how does your walking in the light affect your fellowship with other believers?
How does God speak to you through other people?
How is God’s grace different from God’s mercy or forgiveness?
How does grace help you do what God wants you to do?
Keep in mind that God doesn’t want you to ever disconnect from Him. He wants to flow through you constantly in knowledge, wisdom, and love. God designed your mind to flow in His Spirit. It won’t work properly without His presence. Learn to stand in God’s presence and hear His voice. Then teach others to do the same.

The human mind is incapable of rational thought on its own.

The human mind is incapable of rational thought on its own. Without truth, there is no rational thought. The human mind can’t reason to truth. Agrippa the Skeptic discovered this about 2,000 years ago, and philosophers have been unsuccessfully trying to get around that fact since then. As a result, every secular form of epistemology is rooted in unproven and unprovable axioms that are taken as facts without any evidence. You can research and find that this is the case.

The only way anyone can know anything is if Someone Who knows all things and Who can’t lie reveals the truth to that person. Fortunately, Jesus Christ is the Light that enlightens every person. God demonstrates His reality to every person.

Some people acknowledge Him, thank Him, and give Him the glory for the knowledge He gives. They continue to walk into ever-greater light and knowledge of the truth. Others refuse to do that and gradually lose the ability to tell the difference between the voice of God and the things their useless mind makes up or even between what God says and what demons whisper into their minds. The eventually can’t tell the difference between reality and make-believe. That’s why you’re seeing so many crazy opinions all around.

Ask God to reveal His process to transform you.

This diagram with keys represents a single step in God’s process for transforming you on your transformation journey. Each step on your journey takes a moment. Go through these Bible verses and pray about this. Ask God to reveal this process to you.

Consider these Scriptures while studying the diagram. Look into faith first and continue with grace. God leads, teaches, and corrects every person. Christ is the Light, and He lights every person. Some people turn away from the Light. They refuse to thank God for the wisdom and knowledge He gives. Others acknowledge the Light and thank God for the Light. All wisdom and knowledge come from God. Those who thank God, listen, and yield to His Spirit walk into ever-increasing Light as Christ is formed in them. Those who refuse to thank God won’t listen to Him or yield to His Spirit. That’s why you see all the evil that’s in the world today.

God leads through His Word (Jesus Christ)

John 18:37b “Everyone on the side of truth listens to me.” (Jesus speaking)

John 10:16 “And I have other sheep that are not of this fold. I must bring them also, and they will listen to my voice. So there will be one flock, one shepherd.” (Jesus speaking)

You hear. Faith comes by hearing the rhema leading of God

Romans 10:17 “So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word (rhema, which means an utterance or statement) of God.”

Hebrews 12:2a “looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith”

Hebrews 11:1 “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.”

Ask God to answer these questions:

How does this diagram represent God’s process for transformation?
How does the “seed” of God’s Word (Jesus Christ) relate to the parable of the sower?
What does it mean for Christ to be formed in you?
How does gratitude to God influence your ability to hear and yield to His Spirit?
Why do some people turn away from the Light?
Bonus questions:

What does it mean when the Bible says Christ is the Light?
What happens to you when you thank God and listen to Him?
Since God’s Word is God leading you any way He leads you, how does God lead you through His Word?
What does it mean when the Bible says your faith comes by hearing the rhema (spoken word) of God?
What is faith, and why is it important to you?

Keep in mind that God doesn’t want you to ever disconnect from Him. He wants to flow through you constantly in knowledge, wisdom, and love.

HAVE YOU BEEN GOING FROM GLORY TO GLORY TO GLORY?

Transformation is both a gradual process and a sudden process. If you have been walking in the Spirit as the Scripture commands, God has been working on your transformation all the while. You have been going from glory to glory to glory to glory, one step at a time. However, a day is coming when there will be a sudden change. The old rebellious fleshly nature will be gone and Christ will be fully mature in you.

“But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.” 2 Corinthians 3:18

“In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.” 1 Corinthians 15:52-53

“For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.” Romans 8:19

“The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.” John 10:10
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” John 3:16

“For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Romans 6:23

“And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.” 1 John 5:11-12

Ask God to answer these questions.

Rather than trusting the fallen human mind to try to answer important questions, ask God. All wisdom and knowledge is hidden in Christ, so ask God about these points:

How can you be transformed from glory to glory?
What is the sudden change called “the manifestation of the sons of God” that will happen in the future?
Why will your old rebellious nature be gone one day?
What does it mean for you to be changed in the twinkling of an eye?
What are the sons of God waiting for?

Bonus questions:

What does it mean to have life more abundantly?
What does it mean to have eternal life through Jesus Christ?
Keep in mind that God doesn’t want you to ever disconnect from Him. He wants to flow through you constantly in knowledge, wisdom, and love.

God wants to transform us into the image and likeness of Christ

The Bible shouts to us of transformation. God wants to transform us into the image and likeness of Christ.

“For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.” Philippians 3:20-21
The adoption mentioned in Scripture is a sort of adoption different from what you may be familiar with. You may be more familiar with the word “adoption” as modern (Western) adoption, meaning taking someone who’s not born into the family and adding that person to the family. That’s a wonderful thing too, but it’s not what Scripture is talking about when it mentions adoption. Biblical (Eastern) adoption is a totally different concept. The person who is adopted must be a born son. The Bible uses the word “son,” but it applies to men and women. In the Scripture, adoption is placing a mature son into a position of authority in the family business. That’s why born again Christians are waiting for the adoption. And that adoption is the redemption of our bodies.

“And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the first fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.” Romans 8:23

“For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.” Romans 8:14

Ask God to answer these questions:

How is the Holy Spirit transforming you into the image of Christ?
How will your body be changed to be like Jesus’ body?
What is the difference between
What is the difference between Biblical (Eastern) adoption to modern (Western) adoption??
What does it mean to be a “born son” in the Bible?
What is the adoption that the whole creation and you are waiting for?

Bonus questions:

What is the adoption, which is the redemption of your body?
What does it mean for you to be led by the Spirit of God?

BE TRANSFORMED. ALLOW THE HOLY SPIRIT TO GIVE YOU A NEW MIND.

God shows you that He’s going to transform you. Consider these Scriptures:

“And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.” Romans 12:2

“Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ.” Philippians 1:6

You were born again by believing God. You accepted Christ as your personal Lord and Savior from sin. The moment you were born again, you became a new creation. Your spirit was joined to God’s Spirit. 1 Corinthians 6:17 says, “But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.” You are a three-part being, spirit, soul or mind, and body. Your spirit is redeemed. In your spirit, you are seated in heavenly places. Now, the battle is for your mind. Satan wants it. You must choose.

“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.” 2 Corinthians 5:17

“I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.” Galatians 2:20

“Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not. Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.” 1 John 3:1-2

Ask God to answer these questions:
What does it mean for you to be born again?
What’s the difference between you being born again and being transformed into the image and likeness of Christ?
What is a new creation in Christ?
What does it mean that your spirit is joined with God’s Spirit?
Why does Satan want your mind?

Bonus questions:
What does it mean for you to be called a son of God?
What does it mean for you to be transformed by the renewing of your mind?
What is the difference between you being born again and growing to maturity in Christ?
What does it mean that you are seated in heavenly places with Christ?
Since the renewing of your mind is in passive voice, Who is renewing your mind and how?

If you want to hear God’s voice more clearly, spend time with Him.

If you want to hear God’s voice, spend time with God. If you want to hear God’s voice more clearly, spend time with God. Engage God. Seek His face and His hand will move on your behalf. Don’t just seek what God can do for you with His hand. Seek friendship with God. Converse with God, and let God lead the conversation. God doesn’t mind your questions. God resists the proud. Come in humility. Remember that pride destroyed Lucifer. Let yourself be the one who doesn’t know. Be dependent on God. If you seek Him, you will find Him. He will answer your prayers. Learn to enjoy the Lord. Enjoy His humor and the riddles He gives. Go deep into conversation with Him without fear.

Consider the three-stewards parable. Two stewards took the risk and invested the gold they had been given. Gold is a type of deity. They invested. One steward played it safe and lost what he had. Don’t play it safe.

Sometimes, when you walk with God, you will make mistakes. You will look like a fool. And yet, God honors the fact that you trust Him. You aren’t afraid to go ahead when you sense the Holy Spirit leading. Your carnal nature has great pride and never wants to make a mistake. Fear comes in and clamps down on the Holy Spirit. Pride-driven fear wants to play it safe. Step out when God tells you to step out. Through obedience and trust, God will develop confidence and discernment in you.

When God gives you something, stand by it. The enemy will test it. Do not waver. The enemy will mock through brothers and sisters in Christ. Stay faithful. Stand strong. You can come back to God and ask Him whether you got it wrong, but receive the confirmation in spite of the physical evidence. Don’t give up on the brink of a miracle.

Ask God to answer these questions.
In what ways do you spend time with God?
How do you seek God’s face?
Why is it important that you seek friendship with God and not just ask for things?
What does it mean if you are humble before God?
Why did the steward who played it safe lose what he had?
Bonus questions:

Why do you sometimes make mistakes when walking with God?
What should you do if you feel like you made a mistake instead of following God’s lead?
How can you guard yourself against pride like Lucifer’s?

UNFOLDING REVELATION. GOD CORRECTS US.

The carnal human mind is corrupted and will try to edit what God gives you or may even put in comments that didn’t come from God. That’s one of the reasons it’s a great idea not to become dogmatic about anything. Let God constantly guide you and correct and complete your understanding of the Bible and everything else.

“For when I brought your fathers out of the land of Egypt, I did not merely command them about burnt offerings and sacrifices, but this is what I commanded them: Obey Me, and I will be your God, and you will be My people. You must walk in all the ways I have commanded you, so that it may go well with you. Yet they did not listen or incline their ear, but they followed the stubborn inclinations of their own evil hearts. They went backward and not forward.” Jeremiah 7:22-24

The original language of the Bible says you need to be diligent and careful in your seeking. In other words, you must ask your questions to Him and only Him, and you must believe He will answer you. It’s not hard. It’s simple. Just direct your mind toward God and don’t get distracted by comments from your carnal mind. Ask God to protect you from other voices, and tell Him you want to hear His voice and His voice alone. Jesus said that your heavenly Father won’t give you the wrong thing, but He is able to give you His Holy Spirit if you ask for it.

Ask God to answer these questions.

Rather than trusting the fallen human mind to try to answer important questions, ask God.

What is your carnal mind?
What can you do to make sure your carnal mind doesn’t deceive you?
Why should you avoid being dogmatic about things?
Why did the people in Jeremiah’s time go backward instead of forward?
How can you make sure you only hear God’s voice?

Bonus questions:

What does it look like if you’re diligent and careful in seeking God?
What does it mean for you to receive the Holy Spirit?
What’s the difference between receiving the Holy Spirit, being filled with the Holy Spirit, and being baptized with the Holy Spirit?
