Book excerpt: The Spirit of Direct obedience was a book that flared the creativity of hope within me to continue to write, there were six hundred pages of notes that were scheduled to go into that first book, so after several years, I had to find something to do with all of those notes, and this is the outcome, Spiritual Obedience was a book that told me a lot about who I was, and who I was to become, this writing is not a, this is going to change your life kind of thing, however, if properly applied, and you dedicate your life to study and prayer, then yes, this will change your life. Spiritual Obedience as said, has very little to do with who we are as a people, but it has everything to do with who God is, The reason God sent his Son to die for us, is that through the revealed Glory of who he actually is, we then can find life in Christ, and, we then can find the key to the gate, that will lead us to the path, that will take us all to the Kingdom of God.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are many different levels of Obedience, get my book called Spiritual Obedience, in that book, we talk about many of the different formats there is of obedience, such as, direct obedience, spiritual obedience, and immediate obedience. The word obedience has been mistakenly used for the word authority, they are different, but, they do work together, and they can work against one another, it all depends on the set mindsets that are in place at the time that the situation comes about, for example: we see in political structure of this day {January of 2015} the mindset in place of the House and Congress is against the President, and their idea is to Block whatever the President is trying to do, but on the other hand, they want their agenda pushed and wants the president to go along with whatever they say, even though they won't agree on anything he says or does. It was said to me at one point and time that when you take something that has an appointed use, and you take it out of that certain field of structure, what you then are left with is abuse, for example: when I had my handyman service going, there were many times I needed a chisel for some appointed reason, couldn't find one fast enough so, I used a screwdriver, by pounding on the screwdriver like that, I broke several handles, and even chipped the tooth on the screwdriver once, why? Because the screwdriver that I was using was not designed for that. So the Bible says that God has plans for us, {Jeremiah 1:5} then it says that God has other ideas for us too, {Jeremiah 29:11} many of us are here for a particular purpose, the sad part is, most of us have no clue as to what that purpose is. We will be discussing the notes that should have gone into seven other books that are now published works, these are not rejected notes, but information that should have been used, but in the format of listening to the effectual changes of the spirit, certain pages were pushed aside, until now, so, all seven of these books are coming together to recreate one new work. Spiritual obedience is about opening up ones self to the greater that is within him or her, by doing so, we can then become the visionary that we have been appointed to become, the visionary however is profoundly blessed by God to be the very best that we could imagine, but even greater than we imagined, the word says that; if you can think or imagine it, God can do exceedingly, abundantly more than you can think or imagine. Visionaries are normal everyday people, many are called out by others as either rebellious or evil, but, it is because they listen to God speaking through the Holy Spirit to them, and seemingly, they go in a totally different direction than most would expect. See, visionaries usually go against the grain, they normally take for theirs that information that God gives them, and by doing so, the lord blesses them to go further faster and get more done. When a visionary wants change, he or she will usually administrate what needs to happen, then tell why, the visionary sees what others do not, they take hold of a different line of responsibility, because they want to see positive change happen. most visionaries will apply everything that the Lord has put within them to justify that change is needed, they then will go all out to see that come to pass, by using and utilizing their gifts in direct obedience to what the Lord has said, they then try harder to bless others through the change that is evident. Faith, real, true, Divine Faith, prompts us to live a life, designed by the Lord, not through the avenues of the flesh, it is through much corruption, that many of us find ourselves lacking in the evidence that God exists within us. we are a spiritual based people, loaded down in the authority and the powers of worship, it is through Praise and worship that our true identity is revealed, which is sons a daughters of the most high God. through the years of study under my many mentors.
Download or read book Worn Out by Obedience written by Ron Moore and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 2017-06-06 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you spiritually tired? Many Christians have a deep desire to “turn the corner” in their walk with Jesus. Some don’t know where to start, others are held back by the past, and still others are blinded or calloused by sin. King David, the man after God’s own heart, experienced this very thing, and in Worn Out by Obedience he is presented as a spiritual mentor. David is both flawed and on fire. He is the person we are and the person we want to be. In studying his extended stay in Ziklag (1 Samuel 27–30), readers will see how God often molds our hearts in seasons of brokenness, loneliness, and disappointment—sometimes even in our disobedience. If you are spiritually weary, discouraged, or exhausted, Worn Out by Obedience will help you to keep going—or start moving. You’ll learn the signs of spiritual fatigue and how to avoid them. You’ll see that God uses all our experiences—good and bad—to form Christ in us. And you’ll remember God’s great grace of rescue, recovery, and restoration.
Download or read book The Insanity of Obedience written by Nik Ripken and published by B&H Publishing Group. This book was released on 2014-01-01 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wise Sheep Among the Wolves All Christian disciples have one thing in common: as they carry the gospel across the ocean and across the street, persecution will become the norm for those who choose to follow Jesus. How believers respond in the face of persecution reveals everything about their level of faith and obedience. The Insanity of Obedience is a bold challenge to global discipleship. Nik Ripken exposes the danger of safe Christianity and calls readers to something greater. The Insanity of Obedience challenges Christians in the same, provocative way that Jesus did. This book dares you—and prepares you—to cross the street and the oceans with the Good News of Jesus Christ. Some of Jesus’ instructions sound uncomfortable and are potentially dangerous. We may be initially encouraged by His declaration, “I am sending you out.” But how are we to respond when He then tells us that He is sending us out “like sheep among wolves"? In light of the words of Jesus, how can modern day believers rest comfortably in the status quo? How can we embrace casual faith in light of the radical commands of Jesus which are anything but casual? Ripken brings decades of ministry experience in some of the most persecuted areas of the world to bear on our understanding of faith in Jesus. The Insanity of Obedience is a call to roll up your sleeves . . . and to follow and partner with Jesus in the toughest places on this planet. "We have the high privilege of answering Jesus’ call to go," Ripken says. "But let us be clear about this: we go on His terms, not ours. If we go at all, we go as sheep among wolves." Jesus gives us Himself. And He gives us the tools necessary for those who dare to journey with Him.

Download or read book The Revelations of St Birgitta of Sweden Volume 4 written by Bridget Morris and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2015-08-19 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: St. Birgitta of Sweden (1303-1373, canonized 1391) was one of the most charismatic and influential female visionaries of the later Middle Ages. Altogether, she received some 700 revelations, dealing with subjects ranging from meditations on the human condition, domestic affairs in Sweden, and ecclesiastical matters in Rome, to revelations in praise of the Incarnation and devotion to the Virgin. Her Revelations, collected and ordered by her confessors, circulated widely throughout Europe and long after her death. Many eminent individuals, including Cardinal Juan Torquemada, Jean Gerson, and Martin Luther, read and commented on her writings, which influenced the spiritual lives of countless individuals. Birgitta was also the founder of a new monastic order, which still exists today. She is the patron saint of Sweden, and in 2000 was declared (with Catherine of Siena and Edith Stein) co-patroness of Europe. Birgitta's Revelations present her as a commanding and dauntless visionary who develops a contemplative mysticism that is always interwoven with social engagement and a commitment to the salvation of the world. The varied styles of her revelations are dominated by frequent juxtapositions of memorable images and allegories that illustrate her fierce and fertile imagination, her sharp powers of observation and understanding, and her passionate and receptive storytelling powers. This fourth and final volume of the translation of the Revelations of St. Birgitta of Sweden, comprises The Heavenly Emperor's Book to Kings, The Rule, and Minor Works. While the complete collection of Birgitta's books--called Liber caelestis--ends with Books VII, the eighth book, also referred to as The Heavenly Emperor's Book to Kings, was added after her death. It was compiled by Alfonso of Jaén, and is prefaced by his own treatise, titled The Hermit's Letter to Kings, which examines the ways in which revelations are tested and proven to be true visions conferred by the Holy Spirit. This volume also contains the Birgittine Rule, the Matins readings intended for the nuns, four prayers, and a collection of scattered revelations that lie on the periphery of the main corpus of texts. The translation is based on the recently completed critical edition of the Latin text and promises to be the standard English translation of the Revelations for years to come.

Download or read book True Obedience in the Church written by Peter Kwasniewski and published by Crisis. This book was released on 2022-02-22 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pope Benedict XVI affirmed the ongoing growth and perpetual validity of the Traditional Latin Mass, insisting that "what earlier generations held as sacred remains sacred and great for us too, and it cannot be all of a sudden entirely forbidden or even considered harmful." However, with the 2021 release of Traditionis Custodes, his successor has declared precisely the opposite, sending shockwaves through the Church by calling for the restriction and eventual suppression of her most beautiful and venerable form of worship -- and the one experiencing the most dramatic and impassioned growth. What is a conscientious Catholic to do? In this pivotal book, Dr. Peter Kwasniewski offers an essential treatise on the question of obedience in the Church--whence it derives and how it is to be properly and prudently understood and lived. He explores St. Thomas Aquinas's guidelines on the subject, what type of obedience is necessary for salvation, and which types are lawful and unlawful. Can there be situations where the usual structures of obedience become impediments to, rather than facilitators of, the Church's mission and the good of souls? Have there been instances in Church history where faithful priests have exercised their ministry in violation of ordinary canonical norms? How should the clergy respond if the traditional Latin Mass is forbidden to them or if it were to be declared "abrogated"? What is the proper role of conscience and how are liberal and conservative views of it defective? Other questions on obedience that Dr. Kwasniewski deftly engages include: Is it ever licit for individuals to follow Enlightenment ideology and be their own authority? What should you do when your superior instructs you to do something in contravention of God's law? Why is opposing the traditional liturgy equivalent to opposing the work of the Holy Spirit and harming the Church's common good? Are Catholics required to live in blind obedience, even in situations of anarchy or breakdown, corruption or apostasy? Can Catholics who strive to preserve traditional beliefs and practices ever be credibly denounced as disobedient revolutionaries? Why are unjust laws acts of violence?
