PERFECT OR PERMISSIVE

THERE ARE TWO MAINSTREAM PATHS IN LIFE I WOULD SAY. TO WALK TRUSTING GOD AND WALKING IN HIS PERFECT WILL OR TO WALK IN HIS PERMISSIVE WILL. ONE VERSE I ALWAYS QUOTE IS ROMANS 12:2. TRUE ENOUGH THAT IT VERY MUCH REQUIRES A FOCUSED MIND ON GOD AND WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE FOCUSED AND HOW DO WE BE FOCUSED? AH!!! PLEASE NOTE THAT OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD AND OUR IDENTITY WILL ALWAYS REMAIN THE SAME WITH HIM BUT HOW IS OUR FELLOWSHIP WITH GOD? TO WALK IN HIS PERMISSIVE WILL IS TO GO AHEAD AND THEN ASK GOD TO BLESS YOUR YOUR DECISION.SO THEN WHO IS LORD? YES GOD WILL BE WITH YOU THRU BUT AND PROVIDE FOR YOU AS HIS GRACE IS SUFFICIENT BUT DO YOU WANT HIS PERFECT WILL OR PERMISSIVE WILL.I BELIEVE HIS GRACE IS SHOWN TO LEAD U TOWARD HIS PERFECT WILL,TO A LIFE OF ABUNDANCE,A LIFE YOU'LL KNOW WILL PLEASE GOD.JUST LIKE IN MOSES TIME WHERE THE PEOPLE JUST FOLLOWED WHERE THE PRESENCE OF GOD LED AND MOSES WOULDN'T GO UNLESS GOD IS GOING TO BE THE ONE TO LEAD.BUT WHEN THE PPL REBELLEDAND WANDERED IN THE WILDERNESS AS A RESULT OF CHOOSING THE PERMISSIVE WILL OF GOD,HE STILL PROVIDED FOR THEM BUT THEY WERE LEFT WITH A SENSE OF DISSATISFACTION AS THEY COULD SEE THE PERFECT WILL OF GOD TO ENTER THE PROMISE LAND BUT DUE TO THEIR WILLFULNESS, GOD GAVE THEM TO THEIR SIN BUT HIS GRACE WAS SUFFICIENT ON THEM IN PROVIDING FOR THEM. THE GRACE OF GOD LEADS US TO THAT LIFE OF ABUNDANCE JESUS WAS TALKING ABOUT, ALIKE THAT OF SIN,GRACE LEADS US TO REPENTENCE NOT THAT GRACE WILL BE MORE ABUNDANT IF WE WERE TO SIN MORE AND OUR WILLFULNESS IS SIN,SIN IS HARMATIA IN GREEK. IT MEANS TO MISS THE MARK,THE MARK GOD HAD SET UP FOR US. GOD TAUGHT ME THIS RECENTLY IF YOU REALLY WANT TO GET INTO A RELATIONSHIP,MY RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD HAS VERY MUCH GOTTA BE BETTER THAN THE OTHER PERSON COS HE IS THE SAME YESTERDAY,TODAY AND FOREVER AND HE IS A JEALOUS GOD. THATZ WHY I CHOSE TO PLACE GOD AS THE FOUNDATION AND THE PILLARS , THE ALPHA AND OMEGA OF OUR FRIENDSHIPS AND RELATIONSHIPS WHATSOEVER.
