Your primary gift moves with seasons.
Your gift is key to your reposition,
Your practice perfect the gift,
Deploy the gift to it's purpose,
Pressure develops the gift,
Constantly reevaluate to improve.
Success is loneliness when not shared.
May the Christ in you be the hope of Glory to all who read.

Abide in Me, and I in You-- John 15:4
Abide in Me, and I in You.
There is no deeper word in Scripture. God is in all. God dwells in Christ. Christ lives in God. We are in Christ. Christ is in us: our life taken up into His; His life received into ours; in a divine reality that words cannot express, we are in Him and he in us. and the words, Abide in me and I in you, just tell us to believe it, this divine mystery, and to count upon our God the husbandman, and Christ the Vine, to make it divinely true.
Blessed Lord, thou dost bid me abide in thee. How can I, Lord, except Thou show thyself to me, waiting to receive and welcome and keep me? I pray thee show me how thou as Vine undertaketh to do all. to be occupied with thee is to abide in Thee.
Here I am, Lord, a branch, cleansed and abiding--resting in Thee, and awaiting the inflow of thy life and grace.
May the Christ in you be the hope of Glory to all who read.

Believe with your heart
To believe with the heart or spirit means to believe apart from what the intellect and the five senses can comprehend. Our spirits are designed to believe the word of Goddespite what circumstances indicates.
Therefore, the first step to believing with the spirit is to feed the spirit with the word of God.
1. It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word proceed out of the mouth of God. Matt 4:4.
Jesus was referring to the spirit of man, which is the core of who we are; our spirit lives by the Word of God.
2. The heart of man is the spirit of man. Therefore, we trust God with the heart. Prov 3:5-7.
The physical body is designed to believe the senses. However, the spirit is designed to believe the word of God. a. God and his word are one. When we believe his word, we believe him. b. Therefore, believing with our spirit is believing beyond what the senses detect.
3. We must watch the words we say because our words feed our spirits Eph 4:29
a. We have an inner ear that is direstly connected to our spirits. Therefore, the words we speak either positive or negative deposit good or bad things in our spirit.
b. When we speak words that are corrupt or negative, it grieves the Holy Spirit that dwells within us. Eph 4:30.
c. We must write the truth of the word of God on the tables of our hearts Prov 3:3
We write the truth on our hearts by speaking the word of God. The tongue is like the pen of a ready writer. Ps 45:1.
Therefore, saying what we believe from the word of God produces great results. Spiritual things manifest into physical things when we speak faith-filled words. Matt 17:20
The more time we spend in the word, the more we starve out doubts. Through the word, our spirits can gain the faith that our intellect cannot obtain.
4. The more highly developed we become in either faith or fear; the quicker we will see results.
May the Christ in you be the hope of Glory to all who read.
