Psalm 18:30 As for God, his way is perfect: the word of the Lord is tried: he is a buckler to all those that trust in him.

Psalm 56:4 In God I will praise his word, in God I have put my trust; I will not fear what flesh can do unto me.

Do we have to understand God before we can trust God? His way is perfect and His Word has proven itself to be true. Do we have to see it tested before we can believe it? The rational mind wants evidence to accept what it does not understand. An irrational mind will not accept the truth even with proof. There is no arguing with an irrational mind.

Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

A transformed life will not follow the path of the worldly mind, the thoughts we developed while living a life without Christ. Now that we are in Christ and Christ is in us, we can live by faith.

2 Corinthians 5:7 (For we walk by faith, not by sight:)

If we have to see it to believe it, then we are operating in our own strength and God is not in it.

Ephesians 3:16 That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;

The strength to be right, to do right, dwells in us in the Spirit. This walk of faith requires us to hear Him by faith, to believe by faith and to obey by faith.

Psalm 121:8 The Lord shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.

Now that we know how to be in communion with the God and silence the liar, it must be noted that God does not desire us to stay there all the time. As much as He loves us, He also loves others and the instruction given to “be Holy for I am Holy” means for us to be a place where Satan has no voice.

Our ministry is to a lost and dying world that needs to hear the truth and shine the light in dark places.

In the past I have mentioned that the Word of God is the Sword of the Spirit, keeping the Way open for us to come in and out in communion with God. That Sword we take with us to make a way for others to see how to enter into communion with God.

Being out in the world does not mean God is not with us. The Holy Spirit is still active even after we have left the sanctuary of our hearts. He is the spirit of truth and as such counters lies with truth in our minds. Our minds are still flesh and subject to hearing lies. There is order in loving God.

Matthew 22:37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.

The order is heart, then soul, then mind. We get the order backwards and seek to understand before we believe and seek to believe before we trust. If we cannot trust God, how can we obey? Loving God comes from a place of agape experience, being embraced by that love and bathing yourself in His love.

We love Him because He first loved us and we experience that love in our hearts where He dwells.

The soul is comprised of the will and emotions. That love will come with experience and then lastly the mind.
