Transformed By God's Truth

“When we change the way we look at things the things we look at will change”- Anonymous

The Lord has placed it on my heart to speak to everyone about a new way of looking at things. Newspapers, Television Shows, commercials, Movies ect. This particular Post ad was shown to me first on this blog: http://sheluvsgod.xanga.com/

This picture had a divine meaning to me. A meaning that wasn’t intended by the artist, but intended by God. After this post please consider looking at things in this life differently from God’s Word point of view. Interested in knowing why she decided to post the picture I asked her what that picture meant to her; She replied,

@REMJrFilms very insightful question! I like to use many of my writings to make people feel loved and warm. So that pic was so warm to me

This is true. It’s a warm pic and it’s warm for a reason. Not the reason the artist intended it to be warm for. See the artist has intentions on promoting “Post”, BUT GOD had a different agenda. The Bible is filled with Parables and so is this World. Be careful though because metaphors can be both light and dark. What I speak of is Wisdom and metaphors that testify to God’s Glory and truth not vain preaching’s and man made philosophies that denotes the divinity of Jesus Christ.

This man in this picture metaphorically represents Jesus Christ. Notice how Jesus is emerged in the Words. The Words are apart of him and he’s apart of the Words. That metaphorically stands for GOD’s Word. His everlasting and unchanging Word. It say’s in John 1:1

“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God”.

Does this verse not represent this picture?

The woman in the picture represents all of God’s children who find comfort in the Word of God. He communicates to us through the Word! He hugs us. We feel at peace. Notice the tagline at the bottom of the picture. “If you really want to touch someone, send them a letter”. Is that not what God has done with us? Has he not sent us a letter. Not only a letter, but he sent a part of himself “Jesus Christ”, which was the walking WORD.

Have you ever got that encouraging Word from God while reading the Bible. Is this not how you feel after a message of hope from our Heavenly Father; After rebuke and correction and yet his love and protection. It say’s in Romans 12:2 “Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind”. Body of Christ It’s time we make a complete change in our minds and put on "Kingdom Bound" thinking.

I encourage everyone to pass this Word on to everyone they know. Be encouraged and read the Word daily because they’re may come a time where we don’t have it. It’s good to know that God speaks to us even in AD’s. Your thoughts on this please. And also if there's anything you find God speaking to his children in please post. Tell the world. No one can look at this picture again it's been transformed by the Truth of God. Be blessed.

God Uses You to Represent Him

While at a meeting I had the privilege of meeting this great photographer. He has lived an accomplished life: Author of 10 extraordinary books and fantastic artwork. After the meeting we still had some things to discuss so he suggested that I stop by his studio. I believe the Lord allows things to happen for a reason so I accepted his offer and I followed behind him in my car.

I parked my car and entered the front door of his studio. I wasn’t surprised to see tons of breathless artwork and a desk filled with many papers because after all, this guy is well known in the town. Our discussion continued on to his office where I took a seat. To my far left over my shoulder there hung a picture of the last supper. Directly in front of me where the Artist sat there hung a picture of Jesus Christ. Seeing this I rejoiced in the spirit and asked the man if he believed in Jesus Christ. Hearing this he replied, “Yea I think he was an alien”. I laughed because I thought it was a joke. So I ask him if he was serious and he say’s “Yes I’m serious” and explains to me his reasoning.

While he spoke I looked up at the picture that was placed directly above the chair he sat in. Jesus stared directly at me, but the photographer didn’t notice him because he had his back toward him. It all came together after that. I thought to myself “Hey I’m Gods representative”. My friend don’t you know you are God’s Representative! He doesn’t have to part waters for every one; he showed you his might so that you may have the faith to bring another to Christ. Truth be told, God led me from ENYFA to Binghamton in part to share my faith with this elderly man. Isn’t God Good? He is the director of all steps. We both though we we’re going to his studio to discuss art and future plan, BUT GOD had another Idea. It was a DIVINE APPOINMENT!

I did a silent prayer and asked the Lord to give me the words to minister to this man without coming across as proud or having a spirit of ‘I’m right your wrong’. The Lord placed parables on my tongue to minister to him with. Not only that, but he also placed on my heart to share some of my testimony with him.

I told him that since I was in foster care the Lord has always placed people in my life to get me to the next level in where God wanted me to be. I spoke to him about a woman whom we both knew named Laura, a woman whom he had just met. While in the meeting earlier he complimented her on her dedication and enthusiasm. She then went on to say she’s the only one at her job with it. I explained to him the first time I met her I said to her, “I know you’re the best at what you do. I know you go above and beyond for your clients because God places these people in my life”. I was able to call it right off the back because of God’s Grace. Needless to say she goes out of her way for her clients beyond the job description you name it. Not only that she tells me that she doesn’t take walk ins, but decided to take me before her way out. DIVINE APPOINTMENT.

I shared this with the elderly artist and like his photography career “He got the picture”. We laughed and peace entered my spirit. It was as if God was telling me “I’ll take it from here”. I ask that you all pray for this man call him "The artist" God will know who you're talking about;)

My friend God will move you to a place where he can use you. With that said the same way a country chooses a leader to represent them in the UN God chooses us to represent his Kingdom in the world- Go out and Represent God
