    Instagram post 17881919309072222 Stability In your Relationship With God
___
Have you ever felt like your life was an emotional roller coaster of ups and downs?
For example:
One day you feel good and are joyful in the Lord because your life is going great. The next day you’re upset and have a hard time coming to the Lord because you doubt that He has your best interest in mind.
‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭40:4‬ ‭says:
“Every valley shall be lifted up, and every mountain and hill be made low; the uneven ground shall become level, and the rough places a plain.”
The Lord wants to level the uneven places in your life and bring stability so that you can be steadfast in any circumstance.
But He never does it by giving you better circumstances. 
That’s because we get used to coming to God to ask for better circumstances, which only leads to an emotional fall later when things get tough again.
Instead, God wants to teach us to become completely satisfied in who He is in every moment and to abide in the finished work of the cross.
This means that He has to detach us from what He can give us and what He can do for us in our relationship with Him. 
He does this by taking us through the fire and burning away everything that we are still holding on to that controls our relationship with Him.
Although this process often hurts, it ultimately brings stability and peace into your life by creating a no-strings attached relationship with Jesus that isn’t dependent on an outcome.

    Instagram post 17923529953482934 When He was in Galilee, they used to follow Him and serve Him; and there were many other women who came up with Him to Jerusalem. (Mark 15:41)
Have you ever wondered why so many women followed Jesus? 
Isaiah 53:2 says:
“he had no form or majesty that we should look at him, and no beauty that we should desire him.”
Women didn’t follow Jesus because He was attractive or charming. Nor did he use earthly wisdom and clever words to entice them.
The reason why so many women followed Jesus is because God created women for man not man for woman (1 Corinthians 11:9). Women where created by God to follow a true man. It is in their genetic make up and nature to look to man for leadership and Jesus was the perfect man.
What made Jesus a true man?
Jesus was not only truly God, but was truly man because He had no sin in Him. In the beginning, Adam was a true man before He sinned and obtained a fallen state.
So also it is written, “The first man , Adam, became a living soul .” The last Adam became a life-giving spirit.
1 Corinthians 15:45
After Adam sinned, the earth never saw or met a true man until Jesus had come. Jesus was more of a man then anyone else because He was a man without sin.
Being a man isn’t about looking tough or having a macho personality. It’s simply about being transformed into Jesus who was and is the perfect example of what a man was created to be like.
When we are transformed into the image of Christ, we as men will lead women just as a true man should. That’s because it won’t be us leading, but Christ in us.
When Christ is head over a man's life there will be no need to worry about women submitting to them because they will naturally submit to the Christ in them.
As you begin to manifest Christ in your life, only then will you be a true man.

——
Have you ever wondered what it means for man to steal from God’s glory?
First, we have to define what the Glory of God is:
1️⃣ The Glory of God is the Spirit of God. (1 Peter‬ ‭4:14‬ ‭) (‭‭Ezekiel‬ ‭11:22‬ )
2️⃣The Glory of God is His bride because the Spirit of God dwells in the bride. His people are his glory and his prized possession. (Revelation‬ ‭21:10-11‬ )
In other words, man brings God glory by allowing God to draw the bride closer to Himself through man.
On the other hand, Man takes God’s glory when they become the source of the bride’s attention instead of God. 
When the bride starts to see the man as someone that they need to come to in order to receive the blessing, anointing, and fulfillment that they are looking for, the man becomes the source.
As a result, the bride stops seeking God on her own and struggles to grow in intimacy because there is no personal relationship in the secret place.
It is as if the man is flirting with the bride of Christ instead of preparing her for the marriage of Christ.
In practical terms:
⭐️The more you make ministry about yourself and your own self gain, the more you begin to draw the bride to yourself instead of the Lord.
⭐️Set your mind on helping others become dependent on the Lord and over time they will no longer need to come to you to receive from the Lord.
⭐️We are called to equip the bride to seek the groom by helping others grow in their maturity, intimacy, and giftings in the Lord. 
⭐️Go low - The Lord loves humility because He can draw others to himself through you without people thinking that it’s you doing the works.
