The Civil War

When outer powers provoke the inner powers in a body, then it is when the Civil War starts. It is sneaky. You need it though for a whole powerful and a whole heartedly body. A Civil War is needed for a longer term run. Dont avoid Civil Wars. Be thankful for them. Know that it is for your change. It is hard but when it is needed, then a change is good.
Let me share with you a recent Civil War that I have personally witnessed:
It was a beautiful rainy grey day...Cloudy...Fresh air. There was smoke on the top of the mountain. The only alive powers had put their Victory Banner on the top of the Great Mountain. As long as the Holy Wind exists, that  Victory Banner will be waving in the air for the body. For your body. For your future.
It hadn't been easy to reach the top of the mountain. The Civil War was severe, long term and it took many lives.
      The Civil War had taken lives everyday before the Victory Day. However it was worthed. No matter what it  had cost, it was worthed.
      I still remember the bad smell of all the dead powers laying down the Great Mountain...It is scary and disgusting to look down and see them all, feel them all. Although they are disgusting when they are dead, they were more disgusting when they used to be alive...
      I still remember the glorious warriors of both sides..Neither of them had fear..They had one goal in common: It was to put the Victory Banner on top of the Great Mountain. I remember the scary clashes of their heavy swords, the scary noise of their galloping horses..The screams of the lovely mercy..The tears of the precious forgiveness. The bitterness, stabbing the sweetness. The Old Nature, roaring at the New Nature. The shame, shading the beauty of true repentance. The rudeness, breaking the sense of fairness. The lack of love, hurting the kindness. The bleeding self esteem, running away from the insulting voice's sword. The selfishness, cursing the self curicification..
     I know I said 'they are the glorious warriors of both sides..' However don't you think in this picture one side looks more powerful and the other side looks just losing ? Power is not what you can see always: Power can be sometimes what you cannot see yet. We see the current situation, the current war, but God sees the end , He knows the end, and The End is good. It is gonna be hard but it is gonna be good.
     God said" The first will be the last."
     It is the sinful powers in a body that looks winning at first, but they will be the last!
     The sinful powers and their servants, no matter how hard they want to be the first, they have to be the last.
     So remembering this, I tried not to be too scared of this picture of the Great Civil War.
     Each person's civil war can take a different period of time. Depending on how much you are renewed by your Commander, how much you are walking close to Him in this civil war, how much you are obeying His Words and Commands determine your steps. 
     I remember the joy of the Victory Day.. The enemy wasn't defeated through violence but through obedience to the Great Glorious Commander and renewing of the mind in the Word.
    I won't forget the moment when His Glorious Warriors reached the peak of the Great Mountain and put the Victory Banner: It said on it: The love of the King of Kings.
    I won't forget the symbol on the banner either: It was: the Cross ...When I looked carefully on the Cross, I saw His Blood and His Tears too.
    A daily life is hard but the Commander is alive.
    The Commander has defeated the enemy side.
    It has been a long time since the rightiousness and justice has been kissing and hugging eachother.
    They celebrate the Victory Day, the Great Victory Mountain, the Commander and His Banner.
    So rejoice! Whenever you smell the stinky dead powers, rejoice in His power. Dont let the stinky smell scare you or discourage you: Remember that they dont have power over you, they are dead in their graves.
