Above and beyond yes He is! Above and beyond let us reach! Above and beyond let go and be on your way! Above and beyond!

Too much too know. Overwhelming, yes, but let show. Submit in all ways. Let Him poor out like rain. Be still and know that He's in this place. You are the head, not the tail. You are on top, not below. You are His child. Made right by the blood of the Lamb, OH REJOICE REJOICE REJOICE!
Overwhelming, yes, but let show!

Out of the acting bit. Submitted to what is natural. Crazy you look - to judging eyes. Crazy you are NOT! You are the head, not the tail. You are on top, not below. You are His child!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Word Of God Speak!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Would You Poor Down Like Rain!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(Kutless - Word Of God Speak)

REJOICE REJOICE REJOICE

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Shine dull as dirt
you can´t assert the kind of light
that might persuade
a strict dictator to retire
fire the army
teach the poor origami
the truth is in
the proof is when
you hear your heart start asking,
"What´s my motivation?"
and try as you may, there isn´t a way
to explain the kind of change
that would make an Eskimo renounce fur
that would make a vegetarian barbecue hamster
unless you can trace this about-face
to a certain sign...
Chorus
shine
make ´em wonder what you´ve got
make ´em wish that they were not
on the outside looking bored
shine
let it shine before all men
let´em see good works, and then
let ´em glorify the Lord
out of the shaker and onto the plate
it isn´t Karma
it sure ain´t fate
that would make a Deadhead sell his van
that would make a schizophrenic turn in his crayons
Oprah freaks
and science seeks a rationale
that shall excuse
this strange behavior
when you let it shine
you will inspire
the kind of entire turnaround
that would make a bouncer take ballet
(even bouncers who aren´t happy)
but out of the glare
with nowhere to turn
you ain´t gonna learn it on "What´s My Line?"

When you talk to your siblings, loved ones, whoever you feel most comfortable around.... Notice how you talk more naturally and from the heart as opposed to talking to a stranger. When you're comfortable, what you're doing is dropping, at least a bit, things that are not of God such as fear of judgement, insecurities, fear of the other person not understanding....etc. So just like that your mind is off of focusing on this acting that you're doing by second nature, because of these insecurities and what not. So then you're more so speaking from the true you. The spirit. Things that are of God.

That's why to be very spiritual, to speak in tongues, to be very TRUE and spiritually powerful, you need to DROP EVERYTHING that is not of God.

If you are worrying about people not understanding you, or thinking you are crazy and what not, you will then hold back from saying exactly what you feel in your heart, (which should be Holy Spirit inspired words that are of God and very powerful) and you'll be altering the truth as your HEART and the HOLY SPIRIT and GOD see it, so that you work within the realm of what you believe they know... You know... so you don't confuse them. Bad idea. So then they never really step out of what they know. If you just let go of everything not of God and speak in the spirit, then BAM, the person listening has to use imagination to explore what you're saying and have God convict them and help them to discern it for themselves. THEN it is POWERFUL TRUTH.

So you can't worry about looking like you're mentally handicapped (As many super-filled people do. The way they talk.) You die of yourself THAT much. And in turn are used by God THAT much more.

Use your imagination and see how dropping anything that you know is not of God will have you seeing more spiritually, seeing reality, and living in the spirit. To name a few things.

The more you die, the more you live.

If you could understand the Bible completely your mind would fry after reading one verse. The depth of, power of, and the reality that His word draws is so far beyond what we know. Powerful is an incredible understatement. It's like there's anough energy in one thing that is of God (Which are everywhere - everythign that is good) to blow this whole universe to pieces literally, and in ways we can't imagine, in realms we know not of, and in dimensions we can only speculate on. The power is the direction of God, so it's not randomly released energy (power) or destructive, it's under the complete control of God.

Use your imagination and take your view of this world from "matter" to "God's will" and all of the sudden the world and flesh is incredibly weak and in Christ you are incredibly powerful. Because you, the real you, is a part of the body. A part of this controled energy. You alone, in Christ, are more powerful than you can comprhend. To make use of what you are you just submit to Him.

Indeed. That is why we receive spiritual impartation form the Holy Spirit - so that we may know the things beyond our knowing. A couple of pounds of gray matter cannot contain this.

Eph 3:16 That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;
Eph 3:17 That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,
Eph 3:18 May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height;
Eph 3:19 And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.
Eph 3:20 Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,
Eph 3:21 Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.

Mark, what you wrote was awesome and deep thoughts. Sounds like a book I'd love to read.

And, Bo, were the verses on your post a song or something?
