The Peculiar People
There is a people in the earth that are not citizens of this world. They are from another place. They are born from above. They are filled with the Spirit of the Almighty. They walk in victory in all situations. The Lord is with them to strengthen them and to guide them into all truth and wisdom. They know no defeat, they are not weary, but are renewed day by day, hour by hour, and moment to moment.
The Father's love flows through them, and the joy of the Lord wells up in them. They speak with other tongues and get revelation concerning the will and purposes of God. The Holy Spirit is manifest in power to reveal the secrets of mens hearts. To show the things of God, to give understanding to their minds. To transform them into the image of Jesus.
They lay hands on the sick and they recover. They cast out devils in the name of Jesus, and God is glorified. These are the worshipers of the Lord. And God leads them out in peace, and fullness of joy. The word of their God is in there mouth and in their mind and in their heart. They count it a joy to bring the lost to the living God, and savoir of their souls. The redeemer of men the Lord Jesus Christ.
These walk in newness of life, the very life of God. They fear neither men nor demons nor plagues or any thing present or yet to come. They are safe in the love of God through Jesus the Lord. The Lord is their sheppard and they have no lack. Their's is the love of the Father, that hastens to do His will. Their's is the trust to follow where ever He leads. With out questions or explaination. Only rejoicing to hear His voice, and do His bidding.
These are the sons of the Most High God. Born of the Spirit, through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. This is their heritage, to do the works prepared for them before the world came into being, by the Father. To show forth His glorious riches to those who believe in His Son.
