Living To Live Beyond The Sky

Transitioning is a beautiful thing in my opinion. When I pass away from this earth it's my prayer that no one cries out of fear and anguish, but rejoice because I've finally made it home. It's vitally important to live your life right on this earth. Not so that people can say "Ooh, she's a goody two shoes. She does everything right because she's a "Christian"."

If the way you live is based off of pleasing people and honoring other people's perceptions of you, you will never fully experience the joy and peacefulness that right living and Christianity can bring. Being a Christian doesn't mean you live a boring life. It means you live a life with respect for yourself, your image, and the father. It means you live a life of fulfillment and joy. When you become a new creature in Christ you will understand, but until then you will forever be a spectator. Judging and nitpicking every mistake me and others like me make. Christians know persecution comes with the territory; find a new hobby; God will judge us all in the end...you aren't that powerful!

Living your life right is important. We all will die. We all will be judged by Christ. Although, we want to believe when everyone dies they go to heaven; Some of us won't make it in. Living right in the flesh is to secure your place in the spiritual realm. Yes, it's hard. Yes we all sin and fall short of the Glory, but that's when discernment should kick in.

For example, When you know that you're living in sin and think that "if God didn't love me and didn't approve of my sin, He wouldn't bring certain people and things into my life.

God knew us before we made it here on earth. He knew everything He wanted us to do. He also knew everything we would do outside of what He wants us to do. Yes, God created us! Yes, God knows all things! Yes, God is our father...and just like any father in the natural realm He allows us to make decisions and experience life for ourselves. Why? Because if He didn't allow us to go through what we go through we would never have a testimony and without a testimony you will never be able to witness to people. You can't teach people something you've never learned for yourself. I mean, you can. However people can spot a lie and we know when someone has never experienced what we've gone through. This is why God grants His people the spirit of discernment.

- If this is your mentality I pray you receive God into your hearts again. You are not saved, you are still under the hand of the enemy and he has control of your mind. Your thoughts are not Christ-like. God will never encourage sin! Yes, you may have been saved before... DO IT AGAIN! This time do it with an open heart and truly believe that what you're saying out your mouth is truth.

Romans 10:9-10.

In order to rid yourself from the hand of the enemy you must be saved, but you also have to be baptized into the body of Christ. You will never act out of the spirit if you haven't cleansed your flesh and became filled with the Holy Spirit (with the evidence of the speaking of tongues). Being baptized as a child because your mom took you to church that day and you dressed in white and were baptized is not a proper baptismal. I believe no one should be baptized until they can fully comprehend what it is they are doing to their flesh. It's deeper than just baptizing your kids when they're young. Parents you can not save your children. Every single human being on this planet is responsible for allowing Jesus to save them for themselves. When judgement day arrives I will be judged based on the way I lived my life once I became apart of the body of Christ, not based on the influence my mom had on me and what she's done for me to mold me into a Christian. It doesn't work like that. A parents role is to set an example and to teach a child how they should live their life.

Living your life right here on earth prepares a place for you in heaven. It causes God to open new doors for you on earth. Being a Christian is fun! Living your life right is fulfilling! I have more fun operating in the spirit than I've ever had operating in the flesh. You've never really experienced joy until you've experienced Gods peace. Nobody is perfect, I sin sometime. Am I proud of it? Absolutely not! But does me being a Christian make me exempt from temptation? Absolutely not. It seemed like it wasn't until I gave my life to Christ that my temptations went to a whole new level.

My mouth has always been my worse enemy. I have a way with words so much so that I can build a person up and have them feeling like they rule the world, but if they cross me, with the same mouth I can make them feel like they're nothing. My power (power of death and life is in the tongue) is my weapon and I am not ashamed to admit that. My weakness is in my thoughts. Sometimes I fail and let the enemy come in and play with my mind and make me think certain thoughts towards people. However, because I study to show myself approved and lean on the word of God I know how to fight the battle in my mind and make the enemy flee from my thoughts. But then sometimes my second weakness kicks in and blocks me from fighting my thoughts. My anger use to control my actions. And sometimes, to this day, I still struggle with tuning out my emotions. When I can't get my emotions in check I become angry and I lash out. When I lash out I no longer have control over my thoughts and because I have no power over my thoughts my mouth is out of control and I begin to hurt people. I begin to curse and sometimes I get so out of control I have to go into a room and lock myself away until I calm down so I won't physically hurt someone. I know my weaknesses and when I realize I'm not walking in my purpose I pull myself away from the atmosphere that disrupted my peace, I pray that God helps me to get my heart and my thoughts in check. I repent because I should've never allowed myself to get to that point in the first place. We all will face temptation and be put in compromising situations. However when you choose to discern your surroundings and the people you allow around you to influence you then you create a space of protection. You can't go everywhere and hang around everybody. As I reflect I notice that every time this has happened to me, I was where o didn't need to be and with people who I didn't need to associate myself with.

I say all that to say this. I am not perfect, you are not perfect, and when you stop trying to make yourself seem perfect you allow yourself to see yourself for who you really are. You begin to notice your strongholds and those things that keep you from walking into your full potential. When you take the blinders off you can see the light. This past Sunday Pastor Perry taught on God being the God of Times and Seasons. Within his lesson he spoke about strongholds and how the enemy has power and is able to defeat you as long as you are in darkness. We have to fight the enemy in the light because that's where he's weak. Here's an insert of my notes.

It isn't until you make the conscious decision that, I'm not going to live my life based off of those things I've been taught, or whatever religious practices I've been taught...it isn't until I remove all the fear and the influences that are preventing me from growing. Then and only then, when I remove those strongholds, will I be able to seek the truth, believe the truth, understand the truth, accept the truth, and walk in truth. It's not until I escape darkness when I will be able to see the light and also become the light for those who are trapped in dark places. I can't be the light when I'm covered in darkness myself. I have to defeat darkness and succumb to those things that keep me clean and new.

It isn't until you change your lifestyle completely that you will begin to realize that there is no Grey area with Christ. You're either on the winning side or you're losing. You're either living your life right or you're living your life wrong. You can pick and choose when you're going to live your life right and wrong all you want, but when judgement day comes you'll either make it into heaven or you'll burn in hell. There is no in-between, there are no pit stops, and there is no "I'll do it tomorrow". When judgement day comes God does not care about what you were getting ready to do, he cares about what you've done. How did you love His people, How you treated your mom and your siblings, What you did when you were baptized and knew right from wrong, Why you did what you did yesterday when you knew it was out of the will of God for your life....It's time for a change!

It's sad that it takes someone dying to make you realize how important is is for you to live your life right. It's my prayer when people are dying that they make their relationship right with God, even if they're on their death bed. I pray that God answers the Will Of the sick and the Angels of the Lord keeps them safe and comfortable during their time of transition. I pray for peace and fullness of joy. I also pray that God has His way.

Knowing someone has completed their transition is beautiful. Who wouldn't want to be in a place where they are no longer sick and hurting (mentally, physically, or emotionally)? I find joy in knowing that person has made it to the other side. It's sad knowing you won't see your loved one again, but use seeing them again as motivation to get you in alignment with the will of God for your life. Not everyone makes it into heaven, we can only hope that is the case for our family members and loved ones. Do what it takes to ensure you make it there NOW. Stop waiting for tomorrow when tomorrow isn't promised today!

When you allow Christ into your life, your past life is forgotten. You forgive yourself for how you use to live and you focus on living your life right from that day forward. When you know God and His word He holds you up to a standard that you must meet. You are accountable for your actions and how you treat Gods people. If you know God and intentionally sin He will give you a reprobate mind, it's simple. You will never be able to understand His word again. He will block you out and you will be left in the shadows to continue to serve the man you've been serving all along, the devil.

I ask myself, "Chelsie, why would you risk that?"

I never say "Rest in Peace" when someone dies. If you believe in your heart what the word of God says then you know that the deceased is not resting at all, but living with Christ. I can only imagine how great life must be in heaven.

Side note: When I die I pray no one puts my face on a T-Shirt or makes memes saying "R.I.P" *rolls eyes and says, I will not rest I will live!* lol. PLEEEEEEEASE DON'T DO ME LIKE THAT! LOL!

Pray this prayer:

Dear God I know without Jesus I'm lost and I belive your word that if I ask you to save me that you will. Jesus take the throne of my heart and cleanse me of all unrighteousness. I believe in my heart that you died and rose again so I can live. Thank you father for saving me! In Jesus name, amen!

When you are ready to change your life for good and get in right standing with the word of God, I pray that you Join a church that ministers to your needs, teaches you the word of God, and provides you with principles from the word to apply to your life daily so you can know how to fight the fight of faith and save your life on a consistent basis. There is no friend like Jesus. I pray you become filled with the Holy Spirit so you can fully comprehend the word of God for yourself without having to rely totally on others translations of the word; also, so you can communicate with God through the Holy Spirit and he can activate and disburse the blessings he has in store for you into your lives. Lastly, I pray that you become baptized into the body of Christ, publicly washing away the old you and stepping into the new you, so that when your bodies leave its earthly vessels you are also able to live again in heaven with your loved ones who've already made their transition.

Connect with people who support your decision and break away from those who don't. I love you and I pray Gods best for all of our lives. Remember to never get too caught up in your mistakes. You failed, you cursed them out today... Okay! It wasn't right, you know you were wrong. Take it upon yourself to make a change and never stop striving to guard your tongue. Repent, pray for forgiveness and MOVE ON! Only the enemy will try to keep you bound to wrong doings, why? So he can keep your focus on sin! LET IT GO! God forgives you, forgive yourself, do better, pray God changes your heart and renews your mindset and let it go. You can do anything you set your mind to doing. You can change! You can live a life that's pleasing to God without having to perform religious acts (also known as TRADITIONS). Scripture says be not conforming to this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. You don't have to do what people done 100years ago just to be considered a Christian. Christianity isn't long dresses to the ankles and jumping and shouting every Sunday in church. Christianity is a way of life and if the spirit moves you to shouting then, so be it -Get your praise on! Just know that this lifestyle isn't emotion driven. You may stumble, you may fall, but God is the God of a second chance! YOU GOT THIS!

“For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven: If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked. For we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up of life. Now he that hath wrought us for the selfsame thing is God, who also hath given unto us the earnest of the Spirit. Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord: (For we walk by faith, not by sight:) We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord. Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him. For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad. Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are made manifest unto God; and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences. For we commend not ourselves again unto you, but give you occasion to glory on our behalf, that ye may have somewhat to answer them which glory in appearance, and not in heart. For whether we be beside ourselves, it is to God: or whether we be sober, it is for your cause. For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead: And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again. Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more. Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God. For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.”

‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭5:1-21‬ ‭KJV‬‬

“And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment; That ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ;”

‭‭Philippians‬ ‭1:9-10‬ ‭KJV‬‬

“For everyone who continues to feed on milk is obviously inexperienced and unskilled in the doctrine of righteousness (of conformity to the divine will in purpose, thought, and action), for he is a mere infant [not able to talk yet]! But solid food is for full-grown men, for those whose senses and mental faculties are trained by practice to discriminate and distinguish between what is morally good and noble and what is evil and contrary either to divine or human law.”

‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭5:13-14‬ ‭AMP‬‬

“Because if you acknowledge and confess with your lips that Jesus is Lord and in your heart believe (adhere to, trust in, and rely on the truth) that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart a person believes (adheres to, trusts in, and relies on Christ) and so is justified (declared righteous, acceptable to God), and with the mouth he confesses (declares openly and speaks out freely his faith) and confirms [his] salvation. The Scripture says, No man who believes in Him [who adheres to, relies on, and trusts in Him] will [ever] be put to shame or be disappointed. [Ps. 34:22; Isa. 28:16; 49:23; Jer. 17:7.]”

‭‭Romans‬ ‭10:9-11‬ ‭AMP‬‬

“And Peter answered them, Repent (change your views and purpose to accept the will of God in your inner selves instead of rejecting it) and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of and release from your sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.”

‭‭Acts‬ ‭2:38‬ ‭AMP‬‬

“He went and proclaimed God’s salvation to earlier generations who ended up in the prison of judgment because they wouldn’t listen. You know, even though God waited patiently all the days that Noah built his ship, only a few were saved then, eight to be exact—saved from the water by the water. The waters of baptism do that for you, not by washing away dirt from your skin but by presenting you through Jesus’ resurrection before God with a clear conscience. Jesus has the last word on everything and everyone, from angels to armies. He’s standing right alongside God, and what he says goes.”

‭‭1 Peter‬ ‭3:19-22‬ ‭MSG‬‬

Love,
