Repent: Adjust Your Sails

Are you in spiritual alignment? Are you praying in the right way? How do you even know? Is your course off? Do you need to adjust your sails? 

Listen to this prophetic teaching and glean knowledge from the Spirit of Truth. 

The book of Romans is a great way to start looking for Truth. Consider reading it out of the Complete Jewish Bible (CJB) for a fresh perspective as you compare versions. 

Tammy Toney-Butler, Healing Evangelist, brings a timely word that penetrates bone and marrow, resonates in your heart, and evokes a posture of humility as you look inward and examine your current heart posture before the Lord.

Transcript

Welcome to today's episode of the Reflective Spaces Ministry Podcast. I'm Tammy Toney-Butler, Healing Evangelist. Oh, Holy Spirit, come have your way in this time that we have together. May they hear you and not me. May they see your truth and it resonate in the crevices of their heart. May they be forever changed and turned towards the tree of life, the truth, and live abundantly in your promises as you provide all of our needs according to your glorious riches in Christ Jesus. And you're a good father, Adonai. You provide for your sheep. You're a good father. And we thank you. We praise you. We praise your holy name. and we usher you in to this episode. In the mighty name of Jesus, I pray and declare all things. Amen. In my study of the book of Romans, the important theme that stood out is to position yourself in a place of humility as you spread the good news of the gospel, bearing with one another in love, and recognizing our assignments may be all different. Obedience is the key to what God is directing you to do with keeping your heart pure so that the flow of the spirit's truth cannot be hindered or contaminated by the culture of the world or the politics of the world. Recognizing that God is in control and sovereign overall, he puts up kings and brings down kings. So whoever is in power is there for a reason. We are to honor whoever is in power and not cause strife within the brethren over politics. Political strife leads to confusion. And confusion is not of God. Satan comes to kill, steal, and destroy or distract. Distraction is flowing among the brethren due to infighting over political and world issues. Focus on the kingdom of God. Focus on me. That's what God is saying. And all else shall begin unto you. What is your assignment as a believer? Is it complicated? Is it confusing? No, it is simple. The assignment of the believer is as follows. Number one, preach the gospel. Number two, make disciples. Number three, keep your heart pure and free of the world's contamination. Number four, pray without ceasing. Number five, in all things give thanks to Adonia elohim. Why are we complicating it? We need to be about the father's business. But if we do not know the father, have an intimate relationship with him through his beloved son, Lord Jesus, Yeshua, by way of his holy spirit, the spirit of truth, the spirit of Christ that lives in us. Then how can we know the heart of God? And how can we pray and live in line with his will and build his kingdom on earth as it is in heaven? That is the question he is asking you today. What is in your heart? What is flowing out of your heart? What is your motive? Is it pure? Is it noble? Is it righteous? Is it holy? Is it full of love for your neighbor? love for God. If not, repent. Have the courage to trust and turn and walk his way. Turn. Adjust yourselves and change course. For the kingdom of heaven is at hand. The kingdom of heaven is at hand. The kingdom of heaven is at hand. And as I close, I'm going to read Romans 16 18 out of the Complete Jewish Bible. For men like these are not serving our Lord, the Messiah, but their own belly. By smooth talk and flattery, they deceive the innocent. So, let's go back. Let's go back one or two verses ahead and start at uh Romans 16:17. I urge you brothers to watch out for those who cause divisions and put snares alongside the teaching in which you have been trained. Keep away from them. For men like these are not serving our Lord the Messiah, but their own belly. By smooth talk and flattery they deceive the innocent. For everyone has heard about your obedience. Therefore, I rejoice over you. However, I want you to be wise concerning good, but innocent concerning evil. And God, the source of shalom, that peace, will soon crush the adversary under your feet. The grace of our Lord Yeshua be with you. The grace of our Lord Yeshua, we be with you. The grace of our Lord Yeshua be with you. And that is the message that the Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of truth has for you today.

Go trust in him. Have the courage to repent. Adjust your sails and sail towards victory. in Christ Jesus. Glory be to Jesus.

Glory be to Jesus. Glory be to Jesus.
