RECALIBRATION


 


RECALIBRATION

 

 

Every person ever used by God has gone through a wilderness experience. 

 

Moses had 40 years following Jethro’s flocks…

 

Joseph had his jailhouse…

 

Jacob to Israel… Supplanter\deceiver to Prince of God

 

Saul to Paul and his time in the desert, now changed from arguing daily in the temple and returning to say, “I don't come to you with enticing words of men’s wisdom (trying to convince), but in demonstration of the Spirit and power” (1Cor2:2-5)

 

 

And these are just a few of the people taken from doing what they were doing and how they were doing it…

·       Wrapped in a cocoon

·       “hung out to dry” in a desert place…

·       Transformed into something new by the renewing of their minds (Rom12:2)…

·       Released in power to accomplish the purpose for which they were birthed into the kingdom…

·       For such a time as this (Esther4:14)…

 

 

recalibration 

noun

to calibrate again

1.     small changes made to an instrument so that it measures accurately for the current time, task, or standard. 

2.     re-examining and subsequently changing one's thinking, a plan, a system of values, etc.

Usage: “Literacy standards were in need of constant recalibration, as each new phase of the war could inflate or deflate the value of existing skills, inflate or deflate the effectiveness of existing induction policies and instructional efforts.”

 

 

Synonyms: adjusted. amended. changed. developed. Reconfigured. reset

 

 

So often we are going through the process and pressure being conformed into the image and likeness of the Messiah - Christ (Rom8:29), 

and we keep straining against everything we perceive is holding us back, 

when in actuality 

we are being TRANSFIGURED from thinking like the mere worm or caterpillar we were…

 

EVEN WHEN INITIALLY CHOSEN AND SENT!...

 

(Rom12:2AMP)

“…TRANSFORMED and progressively CHANGED [as you mature spiritually] 

by the renewing of your mind 

[focusing on godly values and ethical attitudes], 

so that you may prove [for yourselves] 

what the will of God is, 

that which is good and acceptable and perfect 

[in His plan and purpose for you].” 

 

 

RECALIBRATED…

 

 

…into the creature He predestinated…

 

 

2Tim2:21 

·       a vessel unto honor, 

·       sanctified, 

·       meet for the master’s use, 

·       prepared unto EVERY good work”

LET YOUR FRUIT SPEAK

Image
LET YOUR FRUIT SPEAK?     People say, , “God told me”…  or “Holy Spirit directed me…”or… “this business belongs to Jesus, He tells me what to do!”     WHY?     Why do they preface THEIR works with such statements?     Isn’t it a ruse of the enemy to keep them unapproachable, uncorrectable, and continuing their own way without interference? … ITS INTENT: prevent ANYONE from speaking into them or the situation… After all… “who are YOU to contradict what God has said?”     “Every tree is known by his own fruit.” (Lk6:44) “…by their fruits you shall know them.” (Mtt7:20)   An apple tree does not have to tell you it is one… it just bears apples! …a cherry tree bears cherries.    You can tell a Dogwood Tree by its “Bark”… well… maybe that doesn’t fit the analogy.     If I have to tell you I am a certain type of tree, it is probably because there is NO FRUIT to make identification easy.     “He that speak...

FORMING YOUR WORLD

  Forming Your World     Have you been in a place in life where you feel like your world has no form, reason, nor rationale to it… like it is void of meaning or direction… and it seems like the darkness is so deep and thick that you not only can't see, but are so disoriented you have no clue as to which way is up?     How do you get out of THAT?     Gen1:1-2 describes just that scenario, but on a grand universal scale: “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep.”     The rest of verse 2 begins to show the hope in the midst of the vast void…                   “…And the Spirit of God MOVED UPON the face of the waters.”             “MOVED UPON” is from a primitive Hebrew root word meaning: to brood: to hover, flutte...

CONVICTION

Image
  CONVICTION   I have frequently heard the phrase, “the Holy Spirit CONVICTED me”… or… “I was CONVICTED by the Lord”.  As a young boy I was taught that God was this big eye in the sky continually watching to see if I was being good… and the Holy Spirit, being on my shoulder, would  speak in my ear to bring that guilt… shaming me back to the right path.the moment I stepped out of line   But… why did Jesus send the Holy Spirit to us?     In  Jn16:7 Christ calls the Holy Spirit “ THE COMFORTER ”. He uses the term, “ parakletos ”, which was used in NT times of an  attorney (lawyer)… someone  giving evidence that stands up in court .   It comes from two words: “ para ” (close-beside), and “ kaleo ” (make a call). The word properly means: a legal advocate, advisor, or alongside helper who makes the right judgment- call  because  close  enough to the situation.       Zech3 clearly portrays a courtroom drama u...
