The saga of "The Secret of GOD", taken from Romans 12.1, the renewed mind and our victory as foretold.

Jumping right in at verse 3 of Romans 12 with our study of scripture, from the view point of GOD's redeemed man, who lives in His divine salvation of innocence, again. By the gift of GOD's grace


Romans 12:3-8 "For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith. For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office: So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another. Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith; Or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teacheth, on teaching; Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, let him do it with simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness." (KJV)

Romans 12:3-8 "For by the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think with sober judgment, each according to the measure of faith that God has assigned. For as in one body we have many members, and the members do not all have the same function, so we, though many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another. Having gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, in proportion to our faith; If service, in our serving; the one who teaches, in his teaching; The one who exhorts, in his exhortation; the one who contributes, in generosity; the one who leads, with zeal; the one who does acts of mercy, with cheerfulness." (ESV)

Romans 12:3-8 "His grace gift inspires me to say to you that your thinking must be consistent with everything that is within you according to the measure of GOD's faith that GOD has appointed to every individual. [1] Let the revelation of redemption shape your thoughts. (The word [1, G5426] sophroneo means a saved mind.) The parallel is clear. There are many different members in one body, yet not one competes with the other in function. Instead every individual member co-compliments the other. In Christ, the many individuals are all part of the same body and members of one another. Our gifts may differ in function, but his grace is the same. If it is your turn to prophesy, let faith and not a title be your inspiration. The same goes for every aspect of ministry, whether it be serving or to give instruction, or to just be there [1, G3870]alongside someone to remind them of their true identity; always let faith set the pace. You are [3, G573] intertwined with your [2, G3330] gift, wrapped up in the same parcel. Lead with passion; minister with mercy cheerfully. ([1, G3870] parakaleo, alongside, closest possible proximity of nearness; [2, G3330] metadidomi [look at Romans 1:11], and [3, G573] haplous are from[G1] ha , a particle of union and [G4120] pleko , to plait, braid or weave together. You cannot distance yourself from your giving! What GOD now has in us is gift wrapped to the world [Ephesians 4:11].)

Now until next time I wish the LORD's speed and grace for you and yours.
