JESUS-consciousness
Be JESUS-consious everyone not self-conscious which leads to selfishness.
Psalms 97:11 Light is sown for the [uncompromisingly] righteous {and} strewn along their pathway, and joy for the upright in heart [the irrepressible joy which comes from consciousness of His favor and protection].
There's a light sown for the righteous, the righteous also can see a light strewn along their pathway as long as they are being conscious of JESUS CHRIST in their life. Being conscious of two things in GOD: (1) favor or grace, and (2) protection.
These are the things that a CHRISTian believer should not forget is to being conscious follower of JESUS and we know in ourselves that what we have in this life, gifts, talents, abilities, capabilities, strengths, wisdom and accomplishments are all entrusted to us by GOD and its all by His Grace, His Unmerited Favor , that all things we have we don't deserve but GOD has entrusted them to us with the responsibility of being accountable in each of them.
What we have right now for example this body? This body is not ours, it's not our own that we will mark it down or vandalize it with tattoos but this body is owned by the HOLY SPIRIT that someday we will answer back to the Real Owner - the HOLY SPIRIT of what we have done to this body, how we vandalize it with tattoo.
1 Corinthians 3:16
Don’t you know that you yourselves are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit dwells in your midst?
1 Corinthians 6:19
Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own;
What is His favor?
GOD in His foreknowledge have deployed His Grace or Undeserved Favor to us in the Person of the LORD JESUS CHRIST. No one is conscious of GOD, we are conscious of our abilities, our talents, who we are, everyday we go to the mirror to remember to see ourselves, but we forget to read GOD'S WORDS. See that's humanity. We have all missed the mark.
Romans 3:10-12
Romans 3:10 As it is said in the holy Writings, There is not one who does righteousness;
Romans 3:11 Not one who has the knowledge of what is right, not one who is a searcher after God;
Romans 3:12 They have all gone out of the way, there is no profit in any of them; there is not one who does good, not so much as one:
GOD'S consciousness just came into being when JESUS CHRIST as GOD took the human flesh and form with body and blood and died on the cross, that's when Humans became conscious of GOD. Other people in their pride will say I have done nothing wrong, I am good. Others will still say, in the deepness of the heart of men lie something good. These are all hypocritical claims. These are pride and resulted from over consciousness of self. Now GOD in His goodness have overlooked on this through the years, but sent His Son to deliver us from all of these thoughts and attitudes.
Mark 2:10
But I want you to know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins." So he said to the man,
JESUS' very purpose why He became man is to forgive sins here on earth. That's what JESUS CHRIST did when He was here on earth, 2,000 years ago but what did His detractors did? They crucified Him on a cross.
Matthew 9:6
But I want you to know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins." So he said to the paralyzed man, "Get up, take your mat and go home."
Their greatest alibi is that JESUS CHRIST is a law breaker because He works on a Sabbath day.
John 5:10
and so the Jewish leaders said to the man who had been healed, "It is the Sabbath; the law forbids you to carry your mat."
Such hypocrites never saw that the man was healed, isn't that great? What a miracle! A thing to be proud of JESUS CHRIST but what they saw JESUS as a law breaker, breaking the Sabbath.
These are humanities, the results of Adamic fall. People tend to criticize and put a stop on somethings that they don't know.
John 5:9
At once the man was cured; he picked up his mat and walked. The day on which this took place was a Sabbath,
But people never saw that they need JESUS. They need forgiveness of GOD. So JESUS CHRIST was given to us as both the Consciousness of GOD'S Grace and GOD'S Protection. JESUS CHRIST is all 3 of them: (1) GOD'S Consciousness, (2) GOD'S Grace and (3) GOD'S Protection. You can really see it if you are opening your eyes to GOD'S WORDS. It's plain and simple. We came to know of GOD and the idea and existence of GOD through the LORD JESUS CHRIST, there's no other way around.
Acts 4:12
Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.”
John 14:6
Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
For example, I usually travel at night to get some of our needs in the store. When all of a sudden a car just goes straight to where I am, and it's about an inch that the car got my feet and crush it but I was saved from that situation. Immediately I've given GOD the Glory because I know that it is GOD who protected me from that disaster of being a lame man.
Psalms 91:11
For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways;
And of course satan knows this that's why he tries his best to outwit GOD and destroy us by killing us before our time, why would he know? because satan is a fallen angel.
Luke 4:10
For it is written: "'He will command his angels concerning you to guard you carefully;
And to defeat an angel, GOD needed to send an angel.
To defeat the devil in his own game of destroying us.
Be conscious of His Grace and Protection.
I don't like watching basketball. You know why?
In the show after a match will end. The people or sports commentator will praise and worship all things, the floor, the court, the ring, the crowd or audience having a wonderful audience, the players, the referees, and even the ball, oh what a wonderful ball we have, the game, the theater house, the location, the chairs but they forgot to praise and worship GOD. What's missing? GOD consciousness.
