A faith cocktail

To mix your faith with your life and the activities is the way we're
designed to live. I know this because of a telling symptom...
Confidence.
A person who speaks with confidence, *not blind passion (dogmatism),
empty courage (bluffs) or skillful repetition (parroting)*, speaks
with a certainty of a stone in flight. He/she will land where he/she
says he/she will because he/she knows the influences, patterns & power
that are at work in his/her life. I bring this up because we've had a
mis-education in our lives. We've extended the fallibility of man to
be an attribute of God. This is the blossoming of the weed (do not
giggle) known as a double-mind. God isn't uncertain of His word, which
He values more than His name. A name contains its bearer within the
contexts of it's bearer's perceived abilities & (more importantly)
inabilities. The universe is not the product of a fallible, uncertain
sentience. A double-mind suggests that it is.
As human beings, we cannot easily relate to anything outside a human
context. A sign of this is the giving of names. We aren't the height
of intellect. This evidence suggests to me that God let us name him so
as to accomodate our 'inabilities'. No name of God is given by him,
save one, the tetragammon YHWH, which we can't pronounce for the basic
issue of the absence of vowels. Every other name is based on what he's
done in the lives of those who presented the name to be used.
I'm talking about this for the simple reason that it pisses God off
something fierce when we mix a tainted faith with what He has said.
He's not finite, doubtful or lost. When he says something in the word,
it is not He 'hopes' will happen. 40 years of 'maybe' stole total
manifestation from those who lived most of their lives as slaves in
Egypt. Don't let it steal from you. You might not be able to afford
what you'll lose next.
The coolest thing about the matter for me is that He put it on him. It
doesn't require goose bumps, shivering or a sense of being stunned.
That He said it is enough. Waiting for His word to come to pass in
your life is inevitable, but confidence/faith is what makes it
relevant for you. Is what makes Him happy. You won't brush him into
the generalisation of Luck.

No one is Lucky with God, or fortunate...blessed. He's consciously
involved with your life & the good things that come into it. It is
faith that encourages more of that... He won't share His glory with
anything that man cooked up to explain away the small showings of His
Power.
