Study: # 668 (#483 before) Church in the Houses From: January 18-24, 2011
TOPIC:”I will cast all my anxiety upon Him” Isaiah 11:2 In this life there are many burdens and anxieties that arrive to overcome us, to take hold of us as if we belonged to them. Sometimes we do not know the reason why these burdens come, which want to cause us a great deal of damage. After they destroy those who are careless they leave. But today we must know that Jesus is our head; that we are the body and as such we must be in agreement with Him to face every burden and anxiety in order to destroy them. We must be clear that we must let God lead us and not any of these things. When all these burdens and anxieties come they begin to disturb us and the mind begins to harm us, we are overwhelmed with many fears. But, we must clearly understand that the Holy Spirit is upon us, and even more that He dwells in us. He is the Spirit of wisdom, of intelligence, of counsel, of power, of knowledge and of fear to Jehovah. If fear begins to come out of our mouth, it is placed in the heart. Then evilness will celebrate on our account, it will laugh, and destroy us. Christ suffered everything for us and He also fills everything in us. There are negative things that seize the body, things that disturb. Those who neglect themselves come to be slaves of the evilness that possesses them and that is what they serve. We cannot give it that opportunity. Life must be lived to its fullness and Christ is the life. Disturbance comes to the mind to take away our joy and peace. It is a constant oppression, we live behind our worries and the body escapes with pills, by going to the doctors and walking away from everything. To flee is not for us the believers. We must face adversity with the faith in the power of God. The Holy Spirit will take us to all truth and to all knowledge. Fears and burdens want to overcome us. We must not be moved by what surrounds us because Christ dominates everything and fills all things in us. Mathew 11:28 Jesus brings rest to all who come to Him. We must always go to Him. Ephesians 4:15 We must grow in Christ who is the head following the truth. We are the body and a body cannot be filled with anything else but what flows from the head. The mind begins to send messages to the body and we begin to act according to that. Christ, our head, always sends the best message to his body, the church. As the body we cannot be filled with fears and other things that are in the human mind, but rather to what there is in the mind of Christ. He will lead us to all good things. As the years go by, each one will show if Christ is or is not the head that directs them. Christ has sought for its body, the church, to live in love and holiness, separated from this world. Christ’s thoughts have never been that when He comes to lift the church, to find the church living in conformity with this world. We should be all harmonized and united by all the joints in love. These are God’s thoughts. Colossians 1:18 He is the head of the body that is the Church. What is in the mind of Christ is what should be in our minds and not our own thoughts. Our own thoughts can disturb and opaque the life of Christ in us. Then anxiety arrives and everything becomes a failure, impossible, (1 Peter 5:7) and this is how we begin to speak and the faith comes to an end. Anxiety comes and begins to close the road that God had opened for us. Anxiety drives people crazy; let us be wise and cast all our anxiety upon Jesus. Those who are his children will cast all anxieties upon Jesus. When there is anxiety we become scarce and anguish will seek to destroy us. We must stop making plans and stop struggling with our own human astuteness because who really takes care of us is Jesus. Mathew 11:28 How much fatigue there is in our body because of burdens and anxieties that empower us! When you do not know what to do with so much work and tiredness, come to Jesus, because that was the call that he made. We must not become addicted to pills. John 14:1 We must watch our heart that entangles us, because many thoughts arrive to it, but what must arrive to your heart is what Jesus thinks, which is perfect. May your heart not be disturbed; God will fight for us. Roman 8:15 When fear strikes, there is slavery. Fear does not come from the head which is Christ. We have to get rid of the fear that is in us. When we have Christ in our lives we are saved and free of condemnation, then why are we still slaves of fear? Fear turns people into slaves, it controls the heart. This fear can enter the church and lead the people and in the same way teach others. But, this must not be permitted. Fear paralyzes, but the mind of Christ which is in us wants us to be filled with wisdom, intelligence, advice, power, knowledge and of fear to Jehovah. We must take all the precautions as well as the church. A person who is too anxious cannot lead another person. We have to have the strength and the power of God. Roman 8:4 All of us who are guided by the Spirit of God are children of God. The prophet Isaiah clearly understood the coming of Christ. We should also be very clear about the coming of Christ. Because today there is more written of the Word of God than what Isaiah knew. Then, there are fewer reasons to be deceived by Satan. Christ is coming for us and none of these desires or anxieties will exhaust us. Our desires nowadays, the fear, the anxiety, the burdens and the excessive work wants to destroy. Isaiah prophesized that The Holy Spirit was going to speak in wisdom, science, knowledge, counsel, fear of God and in power. If we afflict the Holy Spirit and it leaves, then sin will begin to abound, evilness and everything will begin to get ugly. Therefore, each day we must depend on Jesus for wisdom, advice and power of God. We cannot conquer and carry out our commission if we are filled with fears. Jesus wants for us as the body to walk according to what there is in His head. The Holy Spirit has arrived to our lives forever, we have the mind of Christ and we are His body to be directed by Him. The Son of God is completely full of wisdom, intelligence, knowledge, power, fear of God and we are not going to be carried from one place to another. If our head is not filled of the extensive knowledge of God, it will be disturbed. The body receives what is in the head and we should receive spiritual and intellectual orders as Christ received it from the Father. We have to be a wise and intelligent town. Jesus was always very accurate and relevant when He gave advice. He was strong, He was brave and that is how He was known. We must be known as men and women with power. Let us be filled with all the plenitude of God and cast all our anxiety upon Him. Amen.
