Face of Jesus

A man is a success if he gets up in the morning and gets to bed at night, and in between he does
what he wants to do. (Bob Dylan)

I believe so...very much so. How is your life? Are you driven by circumstances or people pushing
you around like you were some punch bag or something....OR are you a person who is walking in
your own world, creating your own rules? Well..let me first say that that is an overstatement – you
can not make your own rules, but you most certainly can learn how to become a follower of the Man
himself, the one that lived in total success in all areas of life, regardless of what people or
authority said. How did He do that? He did obey His Father in heaven. He only did what he saw
the Father do – that is real freedom, that is the God-given way to success!!

When one of His friends one day came to Him, asking for money to pay the taxes, he simply said:
"Go and catch a fish! The first one you'll catch will be the one with the solution to your money
problem!” He did see this in forehand, with His Fathers eyes. That's why He said those things, u
know. I think it is possible to learn how to do this thing, how to ”see” in advance and sort of take
control of the whole situation. When we learn to do that, then more and more we will live in total
freedom with NO hang-ups of any kind, no misunderstandings and no frustration . This is the way of
the Master. I think Jesus was living in total freedom, everyday and every night. The price that He
had to pay was the death of His own will, he did not deny that will but instead sacrificed that will
of his – not only on the cross – day by day through obeying His Father. SO His life was a total
success and no one could touch him, He was ”untouchable” in a way.

"But He was the Son of God...He could do anything, even still the waters!"

Well...that is totally wrong, my friend. Firstly, he could do nothing by Himself. Secondly, He was here on earth on behalf off all mankind and therefore calling Himself the "Son of Man"! and through the ministry of John the baptist, He was baptized into the multitudes of people who we are calling "mankind". Until that moment when He was baptized by His cousin John, was He not the same Son of God before, as He was after, the river Jordan experience? Of course He was! But why then did He not do any miracle work before He was in that river Jordan? I mean...He was still the Son of God! He could do NOTHING by Himself, whether before or after that river Jordan. U get that?

What happened in that moment when Jesus was baptized with water? The heavens opened and the Spirit of the living God came over Him, equipping Him to service for all mankind, in all generations to come. The Holy Spirit made all the difference - even for Jesus. Only after this equipping of Gods Spirit, only then did He do whatever He saw the Father do. He did nothing by Himself - instead He denied Himself, all His own will. THAT is Power! It allows God Father to take all the actions needed for any moment in any given situation. That's how God prefered to work in Jesus lifetime and He has not changed His ways nor His will - He is still the same today as then. He is untouchable!
But all the same visible through Jesus, the Son of Man. And all the funny stuff, all that wonders and signs, are the work of that same Spirit that was dwelling over Jesus during His lifetime here on earth.

Isn't that exiting!!!
