Key Bible verses in order of the Holy KJV Bible reference:

John 15:1-8, “I am the true vine, and My Father is the husbandman. (2) Every branch in Me that beareth not fruit He taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, He purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. (3) Now ye are clean through The Word which I have spoken unto you. (4) Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in Me. (5) I am the vine, ye are the branches: he that abideth in Me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without Me ye can do nothing. (6) If a man abide not in Me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. (7) If ye abide in Me, and My Words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. (8) Herein is My Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be My disciples.”

John 16:22-24, “And ye now therefore have sorrow: but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no man taketh from you. (23) And in that day ye shall ask Me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in My name, He will give it you. (24) Hitherto have ye asked nothing in My name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.”

John 17:21-23, “That they all may be one; as Thou, Father, art in Me, and I in Thee, that they also may be one in Us: that the world may believe that Thou hast sent Me. (22) And the glory which Thou gavest Me I have given them; that they may be one, even as We are one: (23) I in them, and Thou in Me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that Thou hast sent Me, and hast loved them, as Thou hast loved Me.”

Romans 2:10-13, “But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile: (11) For there is no respect of persons with God. (12) For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law (13) (For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.”

Philippians 3:13-14, “Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, (14) I press TOWARD THE MARK for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.”


As a ministry team and family here at Toward The Mark, our mission and vision is to invite and lead everyone we come in contact with into the saving knowledge of our wonder-full King Jesus Christ!

NEW, Mini-Series Weekday 17-18 of 20

*Giving a boost to our day and life, with this 10-minute Weekday Blog*
Our 2nd Blog Mini-Series, each Weekday in JULY!

Thank you for joining us as we
continue this JOURNEY

digging in to the 2nd - 
3rd CHAPTERS of Keith's book,
“Keep the FAITH…Keep Your VISION”!

If you will read this book in its entirety, then you will be equipped to begin walking with the confidence and authority that Jesus Christ came and died to provide for us, in order that we may work *with* Him, be *fulfilled* in our work, lead a *successful life*, and...
      

Days #17 and #18 of 20-day Blog mini-series #2
Chapter THREE, "Rightly Dividing The Word of Truth"
    
"Rightly Dividing The Word of Truth"
            Have you received the gift of The Holy Spirit of truth? Now, please do not confuse the gift of The Holy Spirit with the diversities of spiritual gifts The Holy Spirit brings, such as, word of wisdom, word of knowledge, prophecy, speaking in tongues, and so on (see 1 Corinthians 12). These are manifestations of The Person of The Holy Spirit. The gift of The Holy Ghost precedes all of those. But we must ask The Heavenly Father to give us the gift of The Holy Spirit, "If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your Heavenly Father give The Holy Spirit to them that ask Him?" (Luke 11:13)
            Moreover, if you have not asked for the gift, then you have not received Him; and if that is the case, then you cannot "know the things that are freely given to us of God" because your natural mind "receives not the things of The Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned." Unless we learn the things that are freely given to us of God through The Spirit, we cannot fulfill the purpose for which God created us.

Question to ponder:

Is it possible to be fulfilled in life without The Person of The Holy Spirit being involved?   _________________________________________

Keith's "Comments from the Author":

          "This I have learned: In order to walk in fulfillment, we have to understand that God is The Consummate Family Man. The reason that you are here, and the reason that I am here, is to walk with God, and to work with Him, to fulfill His plan and purpose for all of His Creation. To take what God has given us, when the Scriptures say, ‘God created us for His good pleasure,’ what does that mean? In short, it means that God created us to work with Him 24 hours/day, 7 days/week. He created us to not only work *with* Him but, just as importantly if not more importantly, to rest and trust *in* Him and to *dwell* in Him continually.  Without The Person of The Holy Spirit, this cannot happen.

          Think about that for a moment. The ‘good pleasure’ that God receives from us is not in our fulfilling things f-o-r Him; it’s to be *with* Him constantly – God IN us and us IN Him. I struggled to understand this, early on in my Christian walk. I wondered, ‘How is it that God actually receives pleasure and joy from *spending time* with me?’ This is exactly the point God wants to get across to each of us. And He wants us to understand it so much that He sent His One and Only Son to fulfill His desire and passion to be able to be *with* us continually, *in oneness* with Him. This means that, even though we live on earth, we can, simultaneously, live *in God*, and it is Christ Jesus Who has made it possible for us to be in this world, yet have a dwelling place in God at the same time.  Equally as important is the part that The Holy Spirit plays in making the way for us to partake of *all* that Christ has done for us.  

          Fulfillment is when we use the gifts and the talents that we enjoy the most in our lives, and we use them, together, *with* God. To relay to those around us who don’t know that reality, that GOD IS WAITING with open arms to lead them, too, into fulfillment, is fulfillment as well. When I accomplished things in my business career, using the skills and talents God had wired in me, satisfaction was always temporary and sometimes even painfully so. Where I was channeling my abilities is what needed adjusting, by God. When I asked Him for and received His adjusting, that is when fulfillment came, and it was a lasting feeling like I had never imagined, and continues still, without end. I consulted Him as ‘Chief Operator’ in my life, as well as ‘Manufacturer’ of me and my life. And He continually fills me up, to full and overflowing. What are you waiting for? There's no better time than n-o-w. Selah."  


And we have such trust through Christ toward God.  Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think of anything as being from ourselves, but our sufficiency is from God, Who also made us sufficient as ministers of the new covenant, not of the letter but of the Spirit;[a] for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.  
(2 Corinthians 3:4-9)


*See you tomorrow, and please make sure to invite your friends who are lost or who just need encouragement too! God bless you!*

Day TWO,
Paragraph TWO:

    
Why does it happen that so many people end up taking wonderful visions and dreams, things they carried with them through life, to the grave?  Why is it those people talked about doing great things, but never put them into action to get them out from within their hearts where God placed them?  The answer is simple.  They never found out what God's purpose was for putting them on earth to begin with, so their lives were mere shadows of what they had the potential to be, having no real meaning.  They did not fulfill the purpose for which God created them.   because only in His purpose is the secret to a successful life to be found.

Question to ponder:
What is at least ONE thing that you hold as a passion or vision in your heart, that you haven't done anything with in your life yet?  _________________________________________

Keith's "Comments from the Author":
"This I have learned:  ‘Succeeding’ in something like sports, business, music, and the like, cannot be enjoyed fully based on the world’s standards for success.  True fulfillment can only be enjoyed as you gain those 'successes’ at the same time as you are finding out from God how He wired them in you to be.  And, working *with* Him to fulfill those purposes for which He created your talents and abilities within you to use toward your successes, as you work *with* Him.  Though I won awards for success in the business world, there was always underlying discontentment.  Though I achieved success in the world’s eyes, the fulfillment I was seeking came only when I sought God and what only He could reveal to me as 'Manufacturer' of all I am and that He wired in me to do and to be, *with* Him.  Until that point, succeeding in achieving high-dollar sales and production teams was not enough to override my feeling miserable doing it.”

"Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. &nbspBut seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you."
(Matthew 6:31-33)
