God Thinking I - In The Beginning 7

"God has not swerved off the road as some of us have.  God has not forgotten His promises.  God has not missed bringing His prophesies into being.  God has missed nothing. 

Since time began, God has used His creation to bring us about, and bless us.

God’s plan is perfect and it includes you.  You are in it right now.

You are a direct result of God.

You cannot blame God when things go awry, when things go wrong, when sickness, disease, pain, suffering, indiscretions, sin, wickedness and death come your way.

It would be like blaming the potter every time you drop a dish."

The creator has done a perfect job and continues to.  We (humankind) have not stayed true to our creator.

I know that I have belabored the issue, but this is the first step in God thinking.  Without understanding - without wisdom, the next thing I am going to tell you will have no effect."

God Thinking I - In The Beginning 6

"Let’s look at some of the truths that make up God thinking.

The same freewill that you all enjoy is also the same freewill that breaks God’s laws.  It is in this world of broken laws, that you reside.

It doesn’t matter what has happened: Sickness, disease, pain, suffering, indiscretions, sin (willful or unknowing), wickedness and death can all be traced back to the breaking of God’s law. 

Even if you can’t put your finger on it, and there is no ready answer – Even if you have to trace it back to Adam, you will find that all these things came from, and are caused by, the breaking of God’s law - the fall of man - the spiraling down and away from that perfect state of perfection - where sickness, disease, pain, suffering, indiscretions, sin, wickedness and death, at one time did not exist.

God created perfection and continues to uphold His end, in perfection.  God stills showers you with gifts of love and mercy and all good things. 

The Word says:

James 1:17

“Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.”

God thinking requires that you get it right.

  

All mankind before you, under the authority of free will has handed down to you what they have created. 

You have created something too. 

Those before you along with God’s intervention make you who you are today.

In and through everything you have experienced, during your life without God and during your life with God, God remained God - unmoved - unsoiled - unchanged - holding the universe together by His Spirit , with His mind, in perfect accord.

It is this mind of God that remains constant that you must learn to trust.  It is this mind of God that you need to emulate if you want to understand God thinking."

God Thinking I - In The Beginning 5

"Yes, God sees all of your accomplishments and perils. 

Yes, God instructs and directs you. 

Yes, God provides and protects you along the way. 

Yes, God knows when bad things are going to happen in your life. 

Many times you might ask, why doesn’t God do something about it? God does do something about it.  What God does about it can be understood with God thinking.

 

The question shouldn’t be, why does God let bad things happen, the question needs to be, what should you be doing with what God allows to happen?

To answer this question you need to fully understand the connection between God and man. 

You need to understand the fall of man and the boundaries of creation and freewill."

God Thinking I - In The Beginning 4

"What God created initially is the substance that you currently use to create.  All matter, all existence, all natural law, all phenomenon, even supernatural intervention, God created.

Within the boundaries of this creation - you, all angels, all demons, all creatures live.

One thing God did for you that no other creature can do, not even the angels, is make you in His image and likeness. 

  

“In the beginning God created,” - and that is what you are doing with your life also.  You are to be about creating.  You have the power to create within your means.  Within the boundaries of creation you utilize what is available and you create for yourself, who you are - what you are.

God created you to create and co-create with God, your life.

To do this in a way that brings you success and glorifies God, that takes God thinking."

God Thinking I - In The Beginning 3

"If you can dream it - see it - foresee it - If you want it or desire it - God has already created it. 

In the mind of God, He has seen all that was, all that is and all that will be. 

And God goes ahead of you to create an environment that will be perfectly suited to meet your dream or goal.  God’s creation transcends time and He wants (I say wants because you have free will to participate with God or oppose God) you to work with Him in knowledge.

John 1:1-3

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

V2 The same was in the beginning with God.

V3 All things were made by Him; and without Him was not any thing made that was made.”

Colossians 1:9-17

“For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;

V10 That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;

V11 Strengthened with all might according to His glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness;

V12 Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:

V13 Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of His dear Son.

V14 In whom we have redemption through His blood, even the forgiveness of sins:

V15 Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature.

V16 For by Him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers; All things were created by Him, and for Him:

V17 And He is before all things, and by Him all things consist.”    

 

Hebrews 13:8

“Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.”

When God created the heavens and the earth and all that is therein, He stopped for a day to rest as the scripture says, but He has continued to work within the parameters of that creation, creating and co-creating with you, every day, even today."

God Thinking I - In The Beginning 2

"Time is not fleeting, like some think, but plentiful and pure.

There isn’t too little time, but just the right amount of time. 

Your flesh might say, no way, that’s just hype talk. But, when you are on God’s time-line, you have plenty of time to accomplish everything that God has pre-ordained or pre-determined.  God thinking gets you on God’s time-line.

Note: Once you get this concept everything involving where you are in time and how to best use the past, present and future to accomplish the goals at hand, become clear. All worry and fretting should fall off and many worries, stress and concerns should become more than tolerable, because now you know you are exactly where you need to be to get to where you want to go. 

Time expended is of no consequence.  The time you have ahead of you far outweighs that which is behind you.

Note: I can here the rebellion now, but despite what you have been conditioned to believe, what is ahead is far better than what is behind. It is God's way. Believe it.

A brief and fleeting moment used towards reaching your dreams or for the common good of others, has more value than all that has already gone by.

To wallow in despair or discouragement, when your goal has already been thought out by a loving God, is a true sign of a lack of faith.

Time does not care what you have done, where you’ve been, who you have been, or how you’ve done it.  Time awaits you as if you were perfect.

Time shows no prejudice. 

Time singles out no one to favor them. 

Time gives no advantage to the rich

no preference to the cunning

no judgement of merit

no pre-qualification needed

Time does not distort itself to advantage or disadvantage anyone. If time were clay - You are the potter.

God thinking I - In The Beginning 1

"This is the beginning of God Thinking.  God thinking is the kind of thinking that anybody can use.  It is the kind of thinking that thinks forward to create what God has already ordained to be.

Most of your life you want - desire or chase after what God has already placed in pour path aforetime. 

You seek to create or make happen what God has already transformed from thought into reality.

• What you can dream to do
• What has not been done towards accomplishing your goal - your life’s goal. 
• What you seek after with all your heart
• What you really want - Is right now nestled discretely within, what I was inspired to call God thinking.

 Your future has been carefully protected in time. 

This precious gift of time is released equally to all.

To experience your dreams and/or goals, not only in the way of success, but also in the way of glorifying God, you need to take the time you have ahead of you and learn to think like God."
