Mark 4:35 KJV — And the same day, when the even was come, he saith unto them, Let us pass over unto the other side.

Jesus starts by speaking the end from the beginning. He declares, with authority, His hope and expectation that they would pass over unto the other side.

These are not idle words.

This is not a wish or a New Year’s resolution.

In saying, “let us”, Jesus is declaring that which He desires to have.

And even with a great storm coming against the fulfillment of that which was spoken, Jesus has exactly what He was believing for.

That’s how you do it.

Proverbs 21:14 KJV — A gift in secret pacifieth anger: and a reward in the bosom strong wrath.

This could be a bribe.

This could also be something of value that you give in secret in order to create connection and intimacy in your relationship with the other person.

Powerful things happen when you do things in secret.

1 Corinthians 6:17 KJV — But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.

Not your spouse, or your kids, or your pastor, or your parents, or your family, or your career, or your aspirations, or your dreams, or those disappointments, or dashed expectations, or disillusionment, or the trauma…

You are one spirit with the Lord.

Nothing is between you.

Nothing else needs to approve of you in order for you to have relationship with Him.

You’re in the Holy of holies, alone, with the Creator of the Universe.

Everyone and everything else is outside of that.

Proverbs 19:16 KJV — He that keepeth the commandment keepeth his own soul; but he that despiseth his ways shall die.

Keep the Word as part of your budget, and you’ll keep it in your heart.

Time and money spent in the Word is a worthwhile investment.

Proverbs 18:10 KJV — The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.

The name of the LORD is a strong tower.

The name, of the LORD, is a strong tower.

The name, Jehovah, is a strong tower.

The name, “Existing One”, is a strong tower.

God’s name is His nature.

Your relationship with the Existing One is a strong tower.

Your relationship with the true nature of God is a strong tower.

An accurate understanding of who God is and how much He loves you is extremely important and powerful.

Proverbs 17:7 KJV — Excellent speech becometh not a fool: much less do lying lips a prince.

You are a royal priesthood, a holy nation. You are a child of God. You are the temple of the Holy Spirit. You are one spirit with the Lord. You are seated in heavenly places in Christ Jesus.

You are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus.

Now, take a breath. Remember who you really are in Christ.

And then allow your mouth to speak the words of who you are in the spirit, and not who you were in the flesh.

Proverbs 16:17 KJV — The highway of the upright is to depart from evil: he that keepeth his way preserveth his soul.

Watch over the way you do things. Your habits.

Your habits are roads that lead to predictable outcomes. There are road signs that point out your destination. The Word helps you read the road signs.

Watch your habits and preserve your soul: mind +will+emotions

Proverbs 15:9 KJV — The way of the wicked is an abomination unto the LORD: but he loveth him that followeth after righteousness.

God loves you being who He says you are: righteous.

You are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus.

You are forgiven.

You are the Head only and not the tail.

You are loved with an everlasting love.

By Jesus’ stripes you were healed.

Like the delight of a father who sees his child trying to copy him, God the Father loves seeing you imitate in your body what He has placed in your Spirit.

Be who God says you are. He loves it.

Proverbs 14:4 KJV — Where no oxen are, the crib is clean: but much increase is by the strength of the ox.

Leverage the strength of the ox.

You don’t have to be strong enough to pull the plough.

You can just be wise enough to know who and what else can.

Sometimes the strength of your resources is only seen after you identify and accept the areas of your weakness.

Deuteronomy 8:10 KJV — When thou hast eaten and art full, then thou shalt bless the LORD thy God for the good land which he hath given thee.

When you’re hungry, praise the Lord.

When you take a mouthful, praise the Lord.

When you take another mouthful, and one after that, praise the Lord.

That way, when you’re full, you’ll just keep doing what you did when you were hungry.

Praise the Lord.
