The Live Transformed Podcast Drs. Bob and Audrey Meisner with Dr. Jim Richards

Obeying the law never made anyone righteous. The law was given to show what love looks like and shows us how to relate to people. When I know righteousness and feel righteous, I have the gift of authority and can renew my mind and write His truth on my heart. Once I believe I am righteous in my heart, I experience harmony, peace and joy!

Would you rather have pain, or fall in love with righteousness? There is pleasure ahead for us as we adjust our ways to his ways. This is when life becomes simple, for God has given us things for our enjoyment. Attempting to enjoy life for the “Outside pleasure” brings external counterfeits, but in reality, we live from the inside out, and God gave us the power and grace to be strongly connected to Him.

If your walk with God is burdensome, then you are trying to become something or force something that isn’t being asked of us. To yield and harmonize with the Holy Spirit is to know the secret to effortless victory. As believers, righteousness is our normal…if we ever feel uncomfortable, it means we are violating our true nature to harmonize with Jesus, the exact representation of God.

The first step to Kingdom living is having a flexible teachable attitude! It’s God’s intention to keep us in the perfect life, and this is told from the beginning as we see the harmony in creation. Man has the authority to choose. Being multi-dimensional in our thinking brings us into the depth of understanding which is the precursor to wisdom.

Miracles are when we use a higher set of laws that we can’t explain scientifically. Faith is when we conceive in our heart, and speak with intention and it comes into being. We try to limit God to fit into our finite mind because we can’t control that which we can’t conceive. We are his workmanship created to influence others.

You will either be a slave to sin or a slave to righteousness. Righteousness is the pathway to life. Mercy, compassion, and love don’t excuse sin. Since the garden, man has the desire to define right and wrong independently of God. The pathway to a fulfilling and rewarding life is about being in harmony with God’s intention.
