2 Corinthians 5:6-8 (NKJV Strong’s Bible)So we are always confident, knowing that while we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord. For we walk by faith, not by sight. We are confident, yes, well pleased rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord.

I will live long and strong as I live by faith. I will meet Jesus in the air.  Can’t wait to be with Him. 

2 Corinthians 5:15-18 (GWT)

He died for all people so that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for the man who died and was brought back to life for them.

So from now on we don’t think of anyone from a human point of view. If we did think of Christ from a human point of view, we don’t anymore. Whoever is a believer in Christ is a new creation. The old way of living has disappeared. A new way of living has come into existence. God has done all this. He has restored our relationship with him through Christ, and has given us this ministry of restoring relationships.

Don’t think from a human point of view.   Praise God!  Our relationship is restored with God through the work of Jesus.

2 Corinthians 5:7 (GWT)

Indeed, our lives are guided by faith, not by sight.

Walking by faith and not by sight.  It’s so easy to go by what you see.  God wants you to live by what you can’t see.

2 Corinthians 4:3-4 (GWT)

So if the Good News that we tell others is covered with a veil, it is hidden from those who are dying. The god of this world has blinded the minds of those who don’t believe. As a result, they don’t see the light of the Good News about Christ’s glory. It is Christ who is God’s image.

Don’t be blinded. See the glory of God working in your daily life!

2 Corinthians 3:16-18 (GWTransl)But whenever a person turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away.

This Lord is the Spirit. Wherever the Lord’s Spirit is, there is freedom. As all of us reflect the Lord’s glory with faces that are not covered with veils, we are being changed into his image with ever-increasing glory. This comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.

We are to renew our minds according to Romans 12:2, but when you seek God you are assured of increase. The blinders of the world are taken away, the glory comes. praise God!

2 Corinthians 3:17 (NKJV)Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.

Religion doesn’t bring you liberty. Money doesn’t bring you freedom. Only the Holy Spirit bring freedom, liberty, and unending peace. 

Where the Spirit of the Lord is there is freedom!

2 Corinthians 4:16 (NKJV)Therefore we do not lose heart. Even though our outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day.

We’ve got to face it. We’re all getting older. That doesn’t mean we should be getting weaker. We get stronger when we renew our mind according to the Word Of God. 

Romans 12:2 (NKJV). And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

its all about speaking the Word in Faith

2 Corinthians 4:13 (NKJV)

And since we have the same spirit of faith, according to what is written, “I believed and therefore I spoke,” we also believe and therefore speak,

Your spirit prays when you pray in tongues. There is nothing better when you don’t know what to pray.

1 Corinthians 14:14 (NKJV)

For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my understanding is unfruitful.
