Impact

When you look at the world and people around you what do you see and hear?  How does the things you see and hear impact you?

The framework (perspective) of this world we live in is one of scarcity.  We think in terms of life and death, fall and arise, asleep and awake, rich and poor, accepted and rejected, healthy and diseased, exonerate or blame, right and wrong.

What would our lives look like if we approached it from a perspective of abundance?  What if we changed our thinking?  How would our relationships be different with a new perspective?

God never intended us to live, approach, or view life from a perspective of scarcity.  God is a God of abundance.  There is no lack, there is only more.  He is our enough.  He designed our life for this more.  We were meant to be a new creation, one new man — one with the Father as Jesus is one with the Father.

Spiritual transformation brings life in the spirit, being awake in your spirit.

Alive, awake, full

So from now on we regard no one from a human point of view [according to worldly standards and values]. Though we have known Christ from a human point of view, now we no longer know Him in this way. Therefore, if anyone is in Christ [that is, grafted in, joined to Him by faith in Him as Savior], he is a new creature [reborn and renewed by the Holy Spirit]; the old things [the previous moral and spiritual condition] have passed away. Behold, new things have come [because spiritual awakening brings a new life].  2 Corinthians 5:16-17 AMP

For,

…God will liberally supply (fill until full) your every need according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.  Philippians 4:19 AMP

For Jesus,

…came that they may have life, and have it in abundance [to the full, till it overflows].  John 10:10 AMP

Yes! Jesus, our glory

Awake, my glory! Awake, harp and lyre! I will awaken the dawn.  I will praise and give thanks to You, O Lord, among the people; I will sing praises to You among the nations.  Psalms 57:8-9 AMP

For,

“No one sews a patch of unshrunk (new) cloth on an old garment; otherwise, the patch pulls away from it, the new from the old, and the tear becomes worse.  No one puts new wine into old wineskins; otherwise, the [fermenting] wine will [expand and] burst the skins, and the wine is lost as well as the wineskins. But new wine must be put into new wineskins.”  Mark 2:21-22 AMP

Therefore,

…do not be conformed to this world [any longer with its superficial values and customs] but be transformed and progressively changed [as you mature spiritually] by the renewing of your mind [focusing on godly values and ethical attitudes], so that you may prove [for yourselves] what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect [in His plan and purpose for you]. Romans 12:2 AMP

So, everyone

“Arise [from spiritual depression to a new life], shine [be radiant with the glory and brilliance of the Lord ]; for your light has come, And the glory and brilliance of the Lord has risen upon you.  Isaiah 60:1 AMP

We are to:

Declare His glory among the nations, His marvelous works and wonderful deeds among all the peoples.  Psalms 96:3 AMP
