Podcast #32 | TRANSCENDING DUALISM: Gratitude, our most accurate response | Dr. Annie Smith
"And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful." Colossians 3: 15 NKJV
Let your unity with Christ rule over your heart and dissolve every doubt. Allow His peace to be present in you at all times through your awareness of your oneness with Him. This higher consciousness produces the peace required to fully participate in His divine plan. Peace is the agreement of our hearts and minds, leading us to respond properly to the grace of God within us. The peace of God watches over our entire being. Yet, what often overwhelms us stems from a distorted perception of life—one that can be corrected through thankfulness.
Christ is our one and only life. His Body is our life, and our life is His Body. This awareness dissolves all dualism—there is no separation, no lack, no deferred hope in Him, for everything is already found within us because He, the Lord over all, indwells us. The prayer and supplication of the believer in Christ is not done expecting something apart of us. We pray with boldness, acknowledging every good and perfect thing that already resides in us through Christ Jesus (James 1:17). What often delays our experience of the fullness of divine reality is not a lack of spiritual provision, but the quality of our responsiveness to the Word of God. The only “precondition” to experiencing what is already true of us in Christ is our gratitude to Him. What we experience in life is deeply connected to what we’ve responded to with joy. When you respond to the Spirit’s leading and direction, He takes you into new dimensions. As you respond to this word, may the Father open your heart and show you new ways to respond accurately to His Word.
