Conversations with God- Imitate Jesus

Hi Matthew. It’s the second message from Me today you are doing. You are in a good mood and are ready to type.

Yes. I am in a good mood and was open to doing another message. To be honest, with the last message about being alone I wasn’t finished speaking to You. I was enjoying myself so much I wanted to continue so here we are.

This lesson is all about how I want people to imitate Jesus in the world. I need the world to be blessed with lives that are full of love and mercy. I need people to be giving, compassionate and caring to the world. I need people to touch peoples lives. I need My people who honor My Son to live and act like Him. I am looking for lovers. I am looking for people to spread love all around the world that they live in. I need people to make a difference to the world. You just finished reading the book Following the Rabbi and it really touched you. It was a book about the message of Jesus and what people are called to do on earth if they are Christians. You were really touched by it. I planned for you to read that book and I am so impressed that it touched you so deeply. People really need to know what Jesus was like and they really need to start to live like He did. John wrote this in the scriptures about the Christian life. “He who says he abides in Him ought himself also walk just like Him. (1 John 2:6) This is where John says that a person that says that they are walking hand in hand with Jesus, need to be walking and acting like Jesus did. Many people live lives that are quite far from this standard and excuse themselves by saying that they are just sinners.

Yes, that verse is a convicting verse but it also a very encouraging verse. For John to write a verse like that it means that he lived a life like that. For him to be able to tell other people that they need to walk like Jesus, it means that this was something that was not only possible to do, but something that he has been doing personally. I know Paul said twice in scripture, “Imitate me as I imitate Christ.” (1 Corinthians 11:1, 4:16) Paul would not tell people to imitate him as he imitates Christ if he wasn’t already doing it.

That is so true Matthew. The big lie out there is that Paul was a sinner that could not get on top of his sin life. People think that if Paul wrote about his struggle with sin, then they too are excused from living a holy life. But people do not know that Paul conquered his sin life and lived in a New Creation reality. They do not know that Paul taught that you can live a holy and set apart life. People assume that sin will always be with them, and that they can’t overcome it so they should not even try. Paul wrote, “But now having been set free from sin, and having become slaves of God you have your fruit to holiness and the end, everlasting life”. (Romans 6:22) You can be set free from sin, you can live free of it, and you can walk on this earth just like Jesus did. Paul taught this by telling people to imitate himself. Peter taught that one could be holy. John taught that you could live without sin. There is a lot more to life, more than most people know. You can be transformed and live just like My Son.

It is amazing. It is so refreshing to know.

The people of God need to know what is possible. The people of God need to know that they are gods and they can be divine. They need to know that they can be perfected and refined to live holy and precious lives. They need to know that they can be fruit bearing tress of righteousness.
He shall be like a tree
Planted by the rivers of water,
That brings forth its fruit in season.
Whose leaf also shall not wither;
And whatever he does shall prosper. (Psalm 1:3)

That is one of my favorite verses in the Bible.

Yes, you can be a tree that bears fruit for people to come and eat. You can bear fruit for the sustenance of others. You can go through hard times of spiritual drought and not have you leaves wither. You can live a life in which everything that you do prospers. You can live this verse. When you are living this verse, you life has become like that of My Sons. I have so much more for people. There is so much that I can do for people. There is so much capacity in people. People just need to know what is possible. People need to know that it is not only possible to be a source of freedom for people, and a source of comfort for people, but they can live a life of abundance so that they have enough to be an abundant supply for the needs of others. People only live sub-standard lives because they are not aware of what the Holy Spirit can do through them.

I have been having many of the things I do prosper. I have become a source of supply for people. I have become a fruitful tree. I have begun to prosper and been supplied by You sovereignly. I can testify to this happening in my life.

Yes, we are doing that in your life so that you can testify of it. When We do great things in your life you can share it with others. You can say, “Hey guys all this is possible.” You can share that following Us can be of great benefit to you. Jesus lived with everything that He needed each day. He not only had the anointing and power to heal every sickness but He had a momentary supply so that He could do everything that We wanted Him to do. He had boundless compassion and love and He transformed every person that We wanted transformed. He was very powerful and it was His power that caused the world to kill Him. He was obedient, even to death on a gruesome cross.

Yes, He gave His whole life. He lived every day to do Your will. The good news is that we also can do that. We also can be used powerfully.

That is right. You can live a life that affects many people. You can change the world and the people in it through your witness and your faith. Every single person has a number of people that they can effect. They can bring healing, happiness and joy to the world that they live in. They can be flames of love and can light up the world that they live in. They don’t have to change everyone in the whole world, they just need to affect the people that they know and they do life with. Any person, no matter how popular they are can affect people. Every person that lean into Us, and who draws close to Us can have a lasting affect on other people. Anyone that has My Spirit can live like Jesus and change people.

That is so encouraging. You are so encouraging. It is important for us to know that we don’t have to change the whole world we simply need to have a good and loving affect on the people that we know. We don’t have to be the most popular person in the world, but we can be a powerful force on the people that You choose us to have an influence on.

This is true Matthew. You will never be able to speak to the whole world. No matter how important you become, no matter how powerful you become, you will never be talking to the whole world. What is important therefore is for you to be effective among the people that you do get an audience with. Even though Jesus was the most anointed Man to live on the earth, even though He could heal every sickness and he possessed all knowledge of the Kingdom, not even Jesus had an impact on everyone on the earth when He was here. Not even everyone in the world know of Him now even with modern media. Therefore, you will never reach the whole world, but you are called to live and move in the Spirit at every opportunity so that your words and actions aren’t wasted among the people that we call you to reach. We want you to have a lasting impact on the people that we bring to your voice.

It makes so much sense to me. You have a really simple way of talking to me. You are speaking really plainly. I love that.

Yes, I speak plainly to you and to your readers. I want to be understand and known by your readers. I want to be your friend and I want to lead you from glory to glory. Be at peace. Bye for now.
