Since its no longer I who Live but Christ who lives in me said the apostle Paul, we as priests need to drag ourselves to the altar lay yourself down on the altar as living sacrifices holy and acceptable to God and wait for the holy fire to come down from heaven and burn up the fat The the fleshy nature so that we become fully formed into Christ image, therefore I urge you Brothers on account of gods Mercy to offer your bodies as as living sacrifices holy and pleasing to God which is your spiritual service of worship do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind this is how we get the Mind of Christ 💞 fully formed in us it's done by ministering to the Lord in this priestly service we are called 4 and the holy fire of the spirit of God will come down burn up the dross and the chaff that's left in US as we grow in Christ if you by the spirit you put to death the deeds of the body you will live. Sanctification is a process the spirit undertakes in US through prayer at the altar coming to the cross which was the altar where Christ died and we die when keep coming back to that Cross laying yourselves down. And the resurrection power the fire god will come down and cleanse us from all sin because that resurrection power is really Christ's blood, the life that was in him which now lives in US and we keep going back to the cross for provision and sanctification, the life is in the blood ......lev 17..11For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you to make atonement for your souls upon the altar; for it is the blood that makes atonement for the soul.

You need to lay your whole self down on the alter this time, the spirit won't refresh and revive you unless you're serious, the spirit will be grieved, and it won't be a fun joy-filled time ahead. Seek the Lord while he may found in this season, this season is nearing its end. God will open the door of blessing to all who knock , to all who seek, and to all who ask.

Amen brother Gary

I’m wondering, in prayer I feel God’s presence in and around my head and at times my body very intense at times. It’s like spiritual wind blowing within my mind for lack of any better terms? Now I know our Lord’s ways are way above us, and humble myself before Him. The question should I associate these times daily of spiritually sensing Christ as actually working towards the renewing of my mind with what God’s doing within these times, or is it Him allowing me to know He is present with me. Perhaps both?

16Nevertheless when one turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away. 17Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. 18But 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 [b]by the Spirit of the Lord...................Hi Billy I would say both, laying ourselves down at the cross which is akin to offering your bodies as living offerings, we behold the glory which transforms us, many people think renewing our mind is only done through beholding the written word, but it is written word that in induces faith and it is through faith we are justified and sanctified by the eternal word of god, who is Jesus, the gift of his faith the faith of god becomes our faith and reflects the image back into our soul to transform our soul to match our spirit which is already reborn and one with Christ's spirit, the faith of God which is Christ in us the hope of glory is faith, causes us to pray in the spirit and expect pouring outs of his spirit. Times of refreshing are transforming times to our soul and healing to our bodies, He wants also for you to have faith in his parousia, the presence of God, so you can know he is with you and always near to you , bless you billy with more of his spirit,and may god show you the different activities of the same spirit when he is upon you , it may be that you experience the spirit of prophecy in you devotional times in your prayers or it may be the spirit of pray and supplication, or the spirit of intercession, or the spirit that wants to induce praying in angelic tongues, and so forth, each one will feel a little different in your spirit, and sometimes you should grab a pen and start to write down what flows from your spirit through you soul into your mind , when the prohetic comes on you. . . wait for the holy fire to come down from heaven and burn up the fat The the fleshy nature so that we become fully formed into Christ image, therefore I urge you, brothers, on account of gods Mercy to off your bodies as living sacrifices holy and pleasing to God which is your spiritual service of worship do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind this is how we get the Mind of Christ 💞 fully formed in us it's done by ministering to the Lord in this priestly service .

This thread was bumped forward by a hacker, not me, I noticed it so I posted a few more words, the moderators did a swift job of deleting his post and his account, in case anyone was wonder why I resurrected this old thread, i suppose god works all things for good to those who love God and are called according to his purpose. God bless us
