30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:
31 That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord. - 1 Corinthians 1:30-31.
This is what Christ in you is to the "believer wife." Have you seen believers go round and round trying to get these things worked out. They promise God they will accomplish these things if it's the last thing they do. It will be the last thing they do because trying to do them will kill you. Sometimes literally because the stress or whatever it is that works you so hard to do them causes you more trouble than you could possibly ever have in the world.
If you notice in a lot of our backsliders we call them. They will go back into the world because they had less trouble when they were in the world. At least those are the thoughts they have. Think of the Children of Israel when they were brought out of Egypt and hit some hard spots, they wanted to go back into captivity because they THOUGHT they had it better there than where they were going. Cast that down and everything else that will try to separate you from moving on in the Lord. It may hurt sometimes and it may hurt bad but you cannot stop, you keep going. There is a place prepared for you you know nothing about. Someone said to me one time "the Lord will not out more on you than you can handle." That is true, but what believers don't understand sometimes is 'you can handle a lot.
Thinking, we are thinkers, we think this about something and we think that about something, and we will do the same thing with scripture "we think." When you're thinking fails we want to pass blame off somewhere. You hear people, I have even heard them on christian forums say things about the word of God. They think-when all the time it is written right under their nose. If you want to think so bad think on these things "it is written" as the text says. If you do not understand scripture don't think just read if that so be the matter but don't start thinking about what life is, read what is written and learn. You can learn.
The scriptures can straighten anyone and anything out if they will stay with it. If you throw your hands up and say "I can't do it" you can't. We want everything now, I need money now the commercial says. I need I need, we don't need anything but Him, you just THINK you need. Cast that down and get fixed by what is written plain and pure.
