DISCIPLINED DISCIPLES OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST:
MATTHEW 2:9- Here we see the leading of the Lord by
way of a star, that the wise men followed and the
leading of the Lord by an angel in a dream also
Joseph later had a n inner witness not to go back
after fleeing into Egypt he did not go back to
Bethlehem he went to Nazareth to settle down there.
So come the name Jesus of Nazareth, even though Jesus
was not a Nazarene.1 Timothy 3:5 The discipline we
need in the Lord starts from our own house hold, if
we cant rule over our own house how do we rule a church?
John 8:31-32 we have all heard many times the truth
will set you free.
However when we really look into what the Lord Jesus
was saying, He said If you continue in my word, then
are you my disciples indeed; and you shall know the truth,
and the truth shall make you free. We see by this that
it is not truth that makes you free but it is the truth
you know that will make you free. This knowing of truth
only comes by if you continue in the word of God, and get
to know the author of the book. Hence comes a true story
from Carole Mayhall she came into precession of a book that
she could not get interested in after the first couple
of chapters, so she put the book away on the book shelf
and left it there never did read it. Later she went on a
cruise and on this cruise she met a man and falling in
love with him, and concenplating marriage. She said to
this man how strange I have a book on my book shelf and
the author of the book is the same name, He answered and
said my dear Carole that is not so strange, I am the
Author of that book & THE FOUNDER OF NAVIGATORS MINISTRY.
Carole was so glad he did not ask what she thought of
the book, as Carole did not read as yet!
Carole could not wait any longer as the cruise
was over she quickly fled to her book shelf to get
the book that had gathered dust by now and Carole
read the book from cover to cover twice and found
it to be the most interested book she had EVER read.
Now what had changed why did Carole find the book
more interesting now? The answer is obvious Carole
is in love with the Author. The Holy Bible should be
the same way to us if we are in love with the Author
of the Bible then it will be so easy to digest and
understand. JOHN 12: 26-if any man serve me, let him
follow me; where I am there shall also my servant be:
However the prerequisite for this is the understanding
that we have to be like the germ of wheat that dies,
before we shall produce fruit. When we are willing
and indeed die to our own selfish desires and worldly
lust then and only then can we expect the rest of
what Jesus said here. If any man serve me, him will
my father honor.
We have to note what all these scriptures have
in common with each other that there id a discipline,
and conditions to follow before we can say the Spirit
of God leads us. ROMANS 8:14. Hebrews 10 :38 now the
just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back,
my soul shall have no pleasure in him. But we are not
of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them
that believe to the saving of the soul.
We see by these scriptures firstly that it is Faith
that we are obedient to God, we are justified by faith,
saved by faith, and will continue in the word of God
by faith in the love of God for us. If we are in love
with the one that loves us we shall continue, there is
so much we can say about this scripture, however the
point that caught my interest was the soul the word
says MY SOUL shall have no pleasure in him and
[v 39
..Says the saving of the soul, meaning the
purging of the conscience Romans 8:29 For whom
he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed
to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn
among many brethren. Moreover whom he did predestinate,
them he also called: and whom he called them he also
justified: and whom he justified them he also glorified.
There is Christian claiming to have sanctification,
justified, and looking for glorification.
This has happened to some that Jesus has already taken away,
like Mosses and Ilisha when they appeared with Jesus on
the mount transfiguration. We cannot have this Glorification
until the love of God is perfected in us, ROMANS 8:28
And we know that all things work together for good to
them that love God, to them who are the called according
to his purpose. When we are really in love with Jesus
and his word it starts to happen that we receive healing,
Salvation, & deliverance all of which are a small part
of Jesus glorification. I t is part of out inheritance
to receive this Glorification most of us stop at the Salvation,
or being filled with the Spirit of God for the evidence of
speaking of toughs. However this is just the down payment
of Salvation, it is not the full salvation. We have to be
disciplined disciples to receive the full salvation, the
bible says we are saved, we are being saved, and we shall
be saved, meaning it is a progression that we have
through a continued relationship through his word.
John 4:24 & Rev 4: 11 God is a Spirit: we can never
understand the deep things of God unless we are in the
same spirit. They that worship must worship in spirit
and in truth. God has created all things for his pleasure
and that includes you and me. Now to develop self-discipline
is to take possession of your mind, and is to take emotional
and instinctive thoughts out of our mind. For at least until
our minds have been trained to be like Christ. ROM 12:1 &2
I beseech you therefore brethren, by the mercies of God,
that you present you bodies a living sacrifice,
holy acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
And be not conformed to this world: but be you transformed
by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what
is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
PROV 4:2. I give you good doctrine forsake you not the law.
Our life is shaped on our thoughts and the words control
the thoughts, and thus control our deeds. James 1:13 15
Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God:
for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither he tempteth
he any man: but every man is tempted when he is drawn
away of his own lust, and enticed. Then when lust hath
conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is
finished, bringeth forth death. So we see by this the
thoughts, the words, and deeds.
Romans 6: 16 know you not; that to whom you yield
yourselves servants to obey his servants you are to
whom you obey; whether sin unto death, or obedience
unto righteousness? So we see from this we are servants
to whom ever we yield our members too. We must become
more disciplined to yield our members unto God and
his righteousness. 2.Peter: 1-10 be diligent to make
your calling sure.1Peter 2: 11-21 talks about unstable
souls meaning unstable minds, full of lust and all
kinds of evil, this could be a preacher that has gone
wrong. Very serious, these are the false Prophets and
teachers, while they promise liberty they themselves
are servants of corruption: [verse 20] For it after
they have escaped the pollutions of the world through
the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ,
they again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter
end is worse with them than the beginning. For it had
better for them not to have known it, to turn from the
holy commandment delivered unto them. But it is happened
unto them according to the true proverb, The dog is
turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was
washed to her wallowing in the mire. This is not
just for preachers and teachers this can happen to
anyone. The apostle goes on here in [chapter 3] here
goes on to warn us about having our minds pure at all
times. That you be mindful of the words, which are spoken.
This is a true disciplined disciple of Our Lord Jesus Christ,
one whom has his mind and words pure, I stir up youre
your pure minds by way of remembrance.
Psalm 39:1-4 I SAID, I will take heed to my ways,
that I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth
with a bridle, while the wicked is before me.
The bridle the psalmist talks about is the word of God,
just like Jesus he went like a lamb to the slaughter
[verse 4] Lord make me to know my end, the man here
was not suicidal as some may suggest. He knew the pride
of men and the measure of our days compared with all
eternity. How silly we can be not to obey the Lord God
through his word. No this psalmist was saying, that
I may know how frail I am. That if he was reminded how
fail we are in comparison to the Lord, then it is easy
to humble our self under the mighty hand of the Lord.
1 Thessalonians 4:3-4 & 12 For this is the will of God,
even your Sanctification, that you should abstain from
fornication: That every one of you should know how to
possess his vessel in Sanctification and honor; [verse 12]
That you may walk honestly toward them that are without,
and that you may have lack of nothing. So we see by these
scriptures the Lord God wants us to like right and to be
in full control not to give over to the lust that is in
the world. So we see also there are rewards for obedience
to the Lord [Verse 12] Lack of nothing. As a counselor
I get to hear both side of the story saying I am not strong
in Faith to do this, to live this way but the Lord has said
[we lack nothing] we dont lack the strength to do this,
we dont lack nothing. Could this mean nothing as in anything?
I have always seemed to lack some thing someone
might say! Well whatever the lack you think you may have,
when you walk this way in obedience to Gods word you
lack nothing. When we live a concentrated, sanctified
life before God then we will lack nothing, when it
comes to the power of God we shall have it at the time
of need. Mark 5: 2-16 Just like Jesus when he came
to the man of Gadar-enes not only did the evil
spirits recognized him, but knew he had the power
in himself to cast them out. You live a clean life,
and the unclean spirits will know that you are
clean and have power to cast them out.
{THIS IS THE LIFE OF A DISCIPLINED DISCIPLE]
PROVERBS 25: 28 He that hath no rule over his
own spirit is like a city that is broken down,
and without walls. Hosea chapter 4: 6 My people
are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because
thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee,
that thou shalt be no priest onto me: seeing thou hast
forgotten the law of God, I will also forget thy children.
This needs no explanation, remember our subject
being disciplined, disciple of the Lord Jesus Christ,
through knowing his word.
REVELATIONS CHAPTER 3: 21 To him that overcomes will
I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also
overcame, and sat down with my Father in his throne.
He that hath an ear, let him ear what the spirit
saith unto the churches.
