Reliance on the Great I Am is an active and continuous free-will choice we must make throughout every moment of the day: ‘Rejoice evermore. Pray without ceasing. In every thing give thanks for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.’ (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18) Through the multiple valleys, hills, rocks, boulders, pebbles, uncertainties, dust particles, gorges and yes, even those beautifully sound mountain peaks where thick, endlessly luxurious grass appears and we experience His amazingly soft flowing warmth that rejuvenates our tiredness and restores our weariness like nothing else can, obedience to Abba has become as vital to us as our next breath. We have mentally, actively and spiritually learned how doing so opens ourselves up to the Holy Spirit, which allows Him to intimately sift through our thoughts, and replenish our thought pattern as Jesus heals and restores us, all for God’s glory. Our bodies are no longer solitary, but are a beautifully active sanctuary where Jesus’ reign is fully welcomed and intimately known. Regardless of our physical circumstances, regardless of what the next moment may shockingly bring, our lives have miraculously become a vibrant, joyfully active one because we are no longer ruled by our emotions and feelings, but instead are solely led by Him. What led us to get to this level is individually unique and a private and intensely beautiful story each of us has to share, but one thing is definitely similar, John 14:23 is a verse which has been manifested within our lives. ‘Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man loves me, he will keep My words and My Father will love him, and We will come unto him, and make Our abode with him.’ Our Savior’s fortifying Blood continuously heals and flows through these living temples of Abba’s as the Holy Spirit connects with us and keeps us fully reliant on the Great I Am. ‘The Lord taketh pleasure in them that fear Him, in those that hope in His mercy.’ (Psalm 147:11) Reliance on Him is our individual, free-will choice, but it is He, the Great I am, who privately secures, strengthens, fortifies, and safeguards that choice.
