Be Transformed!

You will be Transformed …Transfigured…Morphed…Changed!

You will become a new creation. It all begins NOW!

It says in 2 Corinthians 5:17 that if you choose to live in the Kingdom of God… then you will become a NEW CREATURE….what was old will pass away and all things will become NEW! This is the power of change…you’re given this power as a co-creation with the Spirit of God. It is a life changing experience.

When Jesus used the word, “Power” in Mark 9:1, “The kingdom of God comes with power.” That word in the Greek is the word “Dynamis” which is where we get the English word “dynamite!” It is the energy…the intensity…the might of God. That power comes from God within you. It is the same power that created all things. It is the same power that Peter, James and John saw come from within Jesus on the mount of transfiguration.

But do you really believe this? Can this be possible? How?

It is done by raising your consciousness to the truth of “What is!” How do you do that? You must be willing to open up your heart and your mind and allow this change to take place. I am talking about a spiritual transformation…the beginning of a physical transformation.

In Romans 12:2 it says this transformation happens through a process of “Renewing your mind” and by proving what is the perfect will of God. That means you allow the Holy Spirit to change your thinking….you test and experience the purposes of God. You open your heart to knowing God’s intentions, His character and His mind.

To “know“ God is to know and experience this power…it is the love of God. If you have not experienced the power of His love…then open your heart and ask for it.

It also says that you choose to no longer be conformed to this world…you let go of the attachments your ego has made with this world and embrace the things of God. It is the Holy Spirit’s job to reveal to you what exactly that is and He knows exactly how to remove those attachments as you yield to Him as described in verse one….”A living Sacrifice.”

What I have described to you is how you raise your consciousness. Your belief system will be transformed…your spiritual vision of “all things” will be altered. Your heart will be changed. You live and experience, think and behave differently. Note this is an inside job and it is NOT about restraining yourself from the world and being “Religious” but rather allowing the Holy Spirit to do this work from within you.

Do You Resist Evil?

Most Christians would teach…you should resist evil…but Jesus said in Matt 5:39, “Resist NOT evil...” What did Jesus mean by this? Doesn’t this appear to be contrary to what you have been taught by the Church?

Throughout history man has always battled with his enemies and if he didn’t have any enemies he would look for some, motivated by fear that if he did not protect himself he would die. It is the carnal nature of our ego’s to do so. Jesus also said in Luke 10:18-19, “…I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven. Behold, I give to you power….over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.”

In Luke 9:1 it says that he gave his disciples power and authority over all devils. Today all followers of Jesus have power over the devils because of the work that Jesus completed here on earth. The battle is over...evil has no place in you. All you have to do is acknowledge the victory given to you by Jesus.

But instead of accepting victory Christians still want to do battle against Satan as though they have there own authority over him. They scream words of anger and control over the devil commanding him to obey them. This is once again an example of the ego thinking it possesses this power on its own.

God would rather we proclaim the work that has already been done speaking words of victory in love, freedom and gratitude.

Therefore when evil is exposed all you have to do is stay neutral…and claim the victory that has already been done. You don’t have to do battle with evil or the devil…if you do…you only give power to it. What you resist will persist.

Have you heard the saying what you resist, persists? This is not just a cliché. Quantum physics is demonstrating quite clearly…your thoughts give power to what ever you focus upon…therefore you cannot resist something without giving it your attention. In fact, when you resist something you are empowering it. If you push against something, by the natural law, you are giving it power and it will push back against you.

When you want to make changes in your life, make peace with "what is" and then choose what you prefer. Give attention to what you want rather than to what you don't want. Every time you complain or repeat the story about what you don't want, you are giving it power over you.

The Bible says Satan is the ruler of this world….BUT you are not of this world. Therefore be not conformed to this world…but be transformed by the renewing of your mind….read Romans 12:2.

Moving from Force into Power!

"And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force." Matthew 11:12 What did this mean?

First understand that the Kingdom of Heaven and the Kingdom of God are the same thing. The Greek interpretation for the words "Suffer Violence" means: the use of force. The word "Violent" means: the strong and forceful. The word "Force" means: to seize. Therefore...what I believe this means is; until then the spiritual understanding of man...or the consciousness of mankind was controlled by violent or forceful thinking. It seized people's minds which I believe was an act of survival. Allow me to further explain....

The ministry of John the Baptist prepared the way of the Kingdom of God. In that moment in history...based upon our understanding of time...a major shift in consciousness had begun. It is was what I will call "Power verses. Force" as taught by Dr. David Hawkins.

Hawkins explains that "Force" is a lower vibration of energy that has to be constantly fed by more energy like a gas has to be fed into a car to make it run....but "Power" is like Free Energy which comes from within universe in a constant state of being...it does not have to be fed...it just is!

So the verse above is declaring that the consciousness of man's awareness was making a shift out of force the of darkness into the light of God's power.

Today the level of mankind's consciousness is collectively moving into the levels of Power which begins when man understands that he is NOT a victim, there is no one to blame for what is....we have to power to change what is into what we truly desire. It is at this moment we begin to release our attachments to this world and move into the Kingdom of God.

Hallelujah!!!

Non-Attachment???

How would you define Non-Attachment?

When I first became aware of this idea...I was a bit confused...and I could not properly define it.

I knew very little of the Eastern teachings on this subject...but I knew Jesus said, "If any man would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me." Matt. 16:24 Therefore, I thought Non-Attachment was all about "denial." It was not until in recent years that I understood that "Denial" and "Non-Attachment" are not the same thing!

I thought "deny" meant you were in a constant state of avoidance....to shun, refrain, or withdraw. This did not sound like joy to me...this sounded like a life without happiness. I did not understand the process. Denial is only the beginning of the process. This is why Jesus followed the word deny with "Pick up your cross and follow me."

What did that mean? It meant death and resurrection!

It meant death to my attachments... death to the power of my ego's attachments to this world.

The ego has it's purpose...it serves us well until we pass on into the next dimension. But it has been programed to attach it's self to this world...Why? For the purpose of survival.

Once you have been "born from above" and received the Holy Spirit, you now have the power to be freed from your attachments...until then you are a slave to your attachments and your ego has full control of you. The Holy Spirit's work is to free you from attachments. You do Not just avoid them...that alone creates suffering. You can actually be free from attachments as though they never existed.

The work of the Holy Spirit within you is is an on-going process of transformation. Through this process you are set free from your attachments. Read Romans 12:1-2. "...be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind..."

You move up through the higher states of spiritual being...higher states of consciousness...this is the kingdom of God within you. 2 Corinthians 3: 17-18 "...from Glory to Glory..."

Watch the video below and allow the wisdom of God to speak to you.

The Difference Between Religion and “Spirituality”

(This is a guest posting from Joe Martino.)

To start, the reason why “spirituality” is in quotations is because there truly is no label for what I am trying to convey in this article. Also, there has been so much identification and many beliefs created within what some call “spirituality” that have really beaten the word to a new meaning. So as I continue, when I speak of “spirituality,” all I am really referring to is that beyond what we see in front of us, that which is our true essence. I am not referring to any belief system or set of beliefs within any structure.

Generally, we can come to a conclusion on something through a set of thoughts experienced within the mind, which is really nothing more than reading something or being told something and taking it as absolute truth based on that set of thoughts. This is a belief system – Religion. Or we can cease to make our thoughts our identity and remain much closer to our true essence, where we can see without blinders (the mind or set of thoughts) what we are experiencing.

Being religious is essentially an identity the ego grasps onto in order to keep itself fulfilled in a role it is choosing to play. Essentially, the ego now thinks that through thought, which is very limiting, it has found and experienced an absolute truth and in order to keep its identity alive, the very nature of “absolute,” will not allow it to “die.” Since the ego’s main goal is survival, it achieves this very easily by attaching to religion. (thinking, believing a set of thoughts)

It comes down to being locked up in the mind (thought and belief) vs. allowing the ego to not have an identity, not allowing the ego to strive to find a role it can latch onto. There is a general fear that we must BE something or know who we are and what we are about – “we” do not, only our ego does. When you recognize the awareness behind the labels and beliefs you have, you have found the consciousness or SELF behind the ego, showing you “spirituality” – that which lies beyond the false sense of self.

Now, I understand this is a touchy subject for where we are all collectively playing right now, but remember conflict will only come as a result of defense triggered in our minds (ego/reptilian) as it fights for survival because the information just presented was challenging. Use this experience and whatever emotions this article brings as a point of observation. Are you agreeing with it and feeling superior to others? Are you getting mad? Are you feeling some truth to it but are not quite there?

In any case, allow the feelings to be and don’t allow them to charge you. Take observation as to what presented for you. Are you limiting your experience by latching onto thought as absolute truth?

I wish to end this with a quote that came to mind that might spark something. It comes from a very fitting movie:

“Unfortunately, no one can be told what The Matrix is. You have to see it for yourself.” -The Matrix

Peace and love,

Discerning Good and Evil

Those who are spiritually mature...exercise their senses...they have trained themselves to see what is good and what is evil. Hebrews 5:14

I would like to define the words in this scripture by using the original Greek so you will know there true meaning....

The first few words of this scripture mean; "Those who have found the perfect state of all things."

This is a level of consciousness where you see everything in the big picture....you see the unity...the harmony of all that is. You know what the scripture means when it says, "All things work together for the good of them that love God, to them who are called according to his purposes. Rom 8: 28

How are you able to do this? You exercise your senses. The word "exercise" means a regular work out as an athlete would do to stay fit or prepare for a competition. The word "senses" means the minds ability to perceive, understand and discern "what is." It is your awareness.

The word "trained" means to make it a habit or practice to see meaning, to understand or distinguish the difference...

The meaning of the word "good" is beautiful, excellent, useful.

The word "evil" means destructive or troublesome.

Therefore this means if you are spiritually mature...you will posses a higher levels of consciousness...you will know how to discern what is Light and what is Darkness...what is Healthy and what is Unhealthy. This is all done without passing judgement or condemning the darkness...instead you use wisdom and the love of God.
