Love you all, praying for you,
I just love God’s Word. It’s not just his commands that are to be fully obeyed, it’s how to, and why to and “I’ll help you” and those who walked with Him, and how they did it. God doesn’t just tell us what to do He tells us how, He promises to help us – and He reveals the eternal blessing and the blessing down here. It illuminates the truth that anything we might think is a sacrifice – is truly so miniscule compared to the reward! David revealed his secret – to a heart after God. Psalms 119:110 – The wicked have set a snare for me, but I have not strayed from your precepts. Your statutes are my heritage forever, they are the joy of my heart. My heart is set on keeping your decrees to the very end. David’s Secret to a heart after God? He trained his heart with his mouth. His words always committed himself to obey. It didn’t matter what others were doing, what the enemy was doing against him. He would always tell himself. “I love God’s Word and I will always obey whatever He tells me!” God has two words for you. And they overlap. His first Word is Logos – His written Word. PRISM – immerses you in His written Word – the truth and love that is really life - the only true success! His second Word is Rhema – which the Holy Spirit speaks in your spirit. Things spiritually discerned, not mentally determined. PiVAT is Rhema – God’s plans for you for today. They come from the Holy Spirit – not your mind. His plans and assignments for you today come from His Holy Spirit. If you ask Him, He will tell you. God promised. PiVAT before dinner is a change of direction from man’s way (what your mind can come up with – that seems right to you) to God’s Way – the good that He has planned for you. You can only do one, not the other. He leads you, or something else does. PiVAT is a change of ownership – you no longer set your day plan – He does. PiVAT before dinner gives you God’s plans for you for tomorrow by His Spirit, and PRISM – those 5 things you can do in God’s Word every day – confirms and instructs you in the plans that He has revealed to you. Here is the overlap. Just as the Holy Spirit reveals God’s plans for you – His PiVAT for you for today. So the Holy Spirit reveals His Word to you. Your PRISM for today – can be done with your mind, your opinion, or done with your spirit - through yielding to the Holy Spirit and just ask Him to show you. Not what you think, but what He thinks! He is the One who reveals the mind of Christ, and the plans your Heavenly Father has for you! It’s how your mind is transformed by His Word! Without the Holy Spirit revealing the Rhema Word of God to you – so you hear and understand and receive it… you would just read the Bible with your brain. Your brain cannot understand the Bible, only your spirit does – when the Holy Spirit reveals its truth. The Pharisees knew what the Bible verses said, but they did not understand, so they twisted, and misused it. I Corinthians 2:14 - The person without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God but considers them foolishness and cannot understand them because they are discerned only through the Spirit. So never do PiVAT and PRISM with your brain, do them with your spirit – in the Holy Spirit. God loves you. He promised the Holy Spirit to help you – if you ask. Luke 11:13 – If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children; how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him. Praying that like David – your mouth will always commit your obedience… that your words will commit your hands and feet… that you will always ask the Holy Spirit to do PiVAT for you – to reveal the plans from your Father for you today. And that He would reveal PRISM to you – what God is saying by His Spirit – through His written Word. If you ask – He will surely do it. God promised. It’s how you walk in the Spirit – in God’s Ways for you, not yours. His plans for you are good! More than you could ever imagine. Praying you always walk with someone on a Daily Call – overcoming together, walking in the good that God has stored up for you – and them! Praying that you will join or lead a PiVAT Small Group - especially in these times. It will help you encourage many to walk daily with another - to fulfill His command in Hebrews 3:13 to exhort one another daily - so they can overcome! Your PiVAT Small Group lets you overcome yourself! and see what God is doing in the lives of other obeyers like you. It’s God's fuel for your fire! Love you all, dad
