Paul once addressed the Jews in the synagogue in Athens and said - Acts 17: 16+:
For in Him we live and move and have our being, …. For we are also His offspring.
It is remarkable that we have the title of “Human Beings”. “Being” refers to a state of our life-existence and we are the only creatures in the known universe that have the ability to influence, determine or “decide” over the state that we are in. What is even more important and remarkable is that we are the only creatures in the known universe that have the ability to call on God to influence our state of being.
God announced to Moses the fact that He Himself is the Master of all Beings and who have absolute control over His own state of Being, when He said in Exodus 3:14
I AM WHAT I AM: and he said, Say to the children of Israel, I AM has sent me to you
This clearly indicates that God IS WHO HE IS, but also that He IS to us what we WANT HIM TO BE FOR US, or what we CHOOSE Him to be for us. So if we want God to be our Helper in all need, He will be our Helper in all need – if we want Him to be a malicious, spiteful and cruel God who is out to “punish” us, He will be for us a malicious, spiteful and cruel God who is out to “punish” us – the choice is (ALWAYS) ours. Apostle John said in 1 John 4:17 - Because He IS, so we are …..
Solomon expressed a fundamental fact of “being human” in Proverbs 23:7
Whatever a person “thinketh in his heart, so is he”
The “process” to achieve ANYTHING is to BE, DO and ultimately we will HAVE.
Now follows a most important principle, which, if it is grasped, will become life transforming. As stated above to “BE” is the first step – the first cause – and to be is a STATE, which has its origin in our MIND. As our mind is part of “spirit”, it has NO LIMITS and is not subject to the “rules” of time – you can BE anything, immediately!!
