WHEN JEALOUSY IS A GOOD THING

WHEN JEALOUSY IS A GOOD THING When someone is jealous of you it means you have something of value. The greatest treasure you can have on earth is My presence. When you carry My presence to the degree that people are jealous, you have reached the prize of your high calling. You have reached a place of kingdom demonstration, where you walk the talk. The peace, joy and love that comes from My presence are the items that cause the jealousy. "I press on toward the goal to win the supreme and heavenly prize to which God in Christ Jesus is calling us upward." Philippians 3:14 (AMP) No amount of study, or sacrifice, or religious activity  will make this thing happen in you. It is born out of a love experience. When you fall in love with Me, to the degree that you want to spend every spare moment talking with Me, it will happen. When you think of excuses to make time to wait on Me, when your entertainment is Me, when My people are your people, that's when you carry My Presence to this degree. When the word prayer no longer is connected with religion, but becomes an exciting lifeline of constant communication that changes your environment, you will make people jealous. "But when the Jews saw the crowds, filled with envy and jealousy they contradicted what was said by Paul and talked abusively reviling and slandering him." Acts 13:45 (AMP)  There is a single life altering moment, when you must decide that the walk you have now, is not taking you where want to go. This is the moment you decide to come after  Me with your whole heart, and nothing on earth will stop you. It is the moment you recognize I am 100% right. It is the moment you decide to place ALL your faith in Me alone! "And my language and my message were not set forth in persuasive (enticing and plausible) words of wisdom, but they were in demonstration of the Holy Spirit and power a proof by the Spirit and power of God, operating on me and stirring in the minds of my hearers the most holy emotions and thus persuading them, [5] So that your faith might not rest in the wisdom of men (human philosophy), but in the power of God." 1 Corinthians 2:4-5 (AMP) There is a single moment when you decide, bitterness is not worth it, hate doesn't do it, getting even doesn't work, making money can't satisfy. A single moment when you discover drugs, parties and alcohol can't maintain it, lust can't be satisfied, and the worlds wisdom leads to more questions than answers. The single moment when you decide  you will no longer go down this broad path to destruction, but you will do it My way. "Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: [14] Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it." Matthew 7:13-14 (KJV) At this point, you have finally joined the race for the prize! Now you will make a difference. Now you have the enemies attention. Now heavens army is at your disposal. Now you will make people jealous, "So I ask, Have they (the jews) stumbled so as to fall to their utter spiritual ruin, irretrievably? By no means! But through their false step and transgression salvation has come to the Gentiles, so as to arouse Israel to see and feel what they forfeited and so to make them jealous." Romans 11:11 (AMP)
