Upside Down World Turning Upright
The polarity of the fallen world is upside down and backward in the minds and hearts of many, if not most, of the people in the world.
The redemption of Christ Jesus in this great time of transformation of mankind and the world is restoring God’s true and proper polarity.
One of the popular upside-down issues to be righted is the natural mind’s belief that taking time out of the day to commune with God would decrease the day’s productivity.
Most people, including many Christians, sincerely believe that they have too much that has to be done to have time to commune with God.
In the right-side-up polarity of communing with God, all things are brought into proper perspective and begin to function much more efficiently, flowing more quickly and effortlessly.
Things we were striving to get done seem to flow into place. Some other things that were on our list to get or do simply dissolve from our mind’s need or thought.
A biblical word to describe our upside-down culture is Babylonian. The natural world systems of today are primarily sold out and locked into Babylonian values for their lives.
We, as Christians, are affected by Babylonian culture to some degree.
The mindset of the current Western world is Babylonian and on the verge of destruction by fire.
The rule of Babylon is the upside-down kingdom in which the first goal is acquiring wealth and a luxurious lifestyle to have more and be more than anyone else, by whatever means available.
Babylon is a manifestation or structure of the kingdom of darkness. (Revelation 18).
The highest authority in Babylon is the human intellect enhanced by the spirits of darkness. The superiority and value of mankind are measured by his cunning intelligence and ability to build marvelous things, to be the greatest and richest, to be number one.
Without the one true God of love, demonic darkness invades the hearts and minds of the people, and the culture becomes godless and without hope.
In the Babylonian mindset, man has no God greater than himself.
Theories were devised by mankind that he was not created by a power greater than himself, but that mankind evolved into being by his own volition.
Babylonians are unaware of evil spirits, and their darkened minds come to believe that darkness is light and light is darkness.
New Jerusalem the Mindset of God in Mankind
Biblical New Jerusalem is the right-side-up Kingdom of God, The Kingdom of Light in the world.
God in Christ Jesus, by The Holy Spirit, ruling by love and light within mankind, brings a heavenly-quality life of wisdom, peace, and joy into the world.
The Spiritual heavenly power of God is released into our hearts, and flows into our minds and then into the world.
Heaven’s power working in us, and supernatural, powerful holy angels working with us, can and will bring about greatly increased production of works in the world, accomplishing much more in less time.
How Communing With God Increases Production
We no longer strive to get things to meet our needs and desires. In the loving oneness of communing with God, we seek The Kingdom of God in our lives and on the earth, and our needs and desires are added to us.
“Therefore, I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?
So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?
Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first The Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.” The key is to seek The Kingdom of God first above all else.” Matthew 6:25-33.
What Does It Mean to Seek First The Kingdom of God
Our rational mind might say something like, “Okay, so what exactly does it mean to seek The Kingdom of God? Can you make me a list of what it means or what I have to do?”
Questions from our natural minds are usually not helpful in finding the truth of seeking first The Kingdom of God.
To seek first The Kingdom of God, only our redeemed Spirit can really help us.
Our natural minds cannot do the work of finding what it means to seek first The Kingdom of God.
Our minds also cannot take us to become one with God and commune in pure, holy love with our Father in Christ by The Holy Spirit.
The Kingdom of God, like communing with God, is first Spirit Love in the heart.
Spirit from the heart will reorder the mind to receive the results of the love of Spirit God in the heart.
When we walk in The Spirit, we walk in love by the love of God. We are love as Spirit LOVE fills our heart and, eventually, our mind and life. We become part of The Kingdom of God/ Love and impart love everywhere we go.
Love in us causes us to care about others and enables us to see their needs and begin to seek to supply or fulfill their needs.
This is the beginning of productive activity that becomes a vocation or business, partnering with God to provide for the needs of His people and His world.
God greatly blesses and empowers the job or business with ideas and guidance to be very successful beyond anything we could ever do in our old Babylonian-trained mindset.
There are challenges along the way, but God always guides us through them. Things and opportunities just seem to fall into place.
We are often amazed as we watch God do mighty works as we, in love, continue to do our part in loving God, His people and His world.
The Kingdom of God or the kingdom of heaven is love that fulfills the law. (Luke 10:25-42)
“Jesus said to him, “‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.”“ Matthew 22:37-40.
Right Side Up Spirit World Governance
The Kingdom of God on Earth under King Jesus is the right-side-up world governance. Spirit God and Spirit Jesus abiding in their temple, the fully redeemed people of God, are establishing the love kingdom of heaven on earth.
All knowledge, righteousness, wisdom, and power of love flow from Spirit God through Spirit Jesus as Holy Spirit in the Sons of God on earth, establishing the ways and order of The Kingdom of God/ Love on earth as it is in Heaven.
Some old-line major powers and governments are deteriorating into evil, unthinkable satanic darkness, and are becoming unfit for anything but total annihilation.
It is mercy and love that God’s fire turns evil governance into ashes. Great damage has been done to God’s creation and especially His People.
Vengeance belongs to The LORD, and all things must come into the order of The Love Kingdom on earth, purchased by The Blood of Jesus, The Sacrificial Lamb and now The Lion of God.
The Fire of God’s Love is cleansing the earth and establishing the reality of heaven on earth.
Prayer
Father God, raise up King Jesus within us with the fire of Your Love.
Do all that You desire in and with us.
Take us far beyond ourselves to become Your faithful sons and daughters to facilitate the Fire of Your love into Your world!
“Our Father in heaven, hallowed be Your name.
Your kingdom come. Your Will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.
For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.” Matthew 6:9-13.
“If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.” Mark 9:23.
Be made whole in His love,
