Bible Ascension is all about Life and Death
“We are not meant to be limited by the natural laws of this dimension. The I AM Presence is the assurance of our access into the Supernatural Miracle Working Power of God. This power is always available to us to bring life, peace, health, prosperity and joy into our lives.”
Hello dear friends,
I am writing to you from Maine. My family and I are spending the month of July on this beautiful coast.
This morning I was reading in the book of Romans. Again I am reminded that the Bible message is all about Life and Death.
Romans 8:11
“But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.”
Romans 8:13-14
“For if you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the flesh you will live.
For as many as are led by the Spirit of God these are the Sons of God.”
Romans 8:2
“For the Law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the Law of Sin and Death.”
Romans 8:5-6
“For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.
For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.”
Romans 8:28
“And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His Purpose.”
These are repeating themes throughout the Bible:
Life and Death
The Law of the Spirit versus the Law of Sin and Death.
To be dead spiritually is to be cut off from the Spirit of God and the Law of the Spirit which is the source of Eternal Life. Eternal Life is all about being connected to God and His Purpose versus being disconnected and struggling in the human condition, already in the process of dying.
Human beings begin the dying process the moment they are born.
Bible Ascension and The I AM Presence
There is no conflict between the concepts of Bible Ascension and the message of the I AM Presence.
The only real difference is the emphasis of the Bible on the redemptive ministry of Jesus: the powerful benefits of His work on the cross, in hell, and the ascension to the right hand of the Father.
Also included in Bible Ascension is the concept of the Great Exchange. This is the understanding that the great gift of God is the exchange of our sin, sickness, mortality and poverty with the righteousness, health, immortality, and abundance found in Jesus.
“Jesus died that we might live.” “He became sin so that we can become the righteousness of God.”
These are important concepts for the student of Bible Ascension but the ideas of the I AM Presence are also powerful tools to use in the Ascension process.
Focusing on the I AM Presence is to be spiritually minded. Focusing on the personal self is to be carnally minded.
It is not just about things that are “sinful” but about the sense of separation from God.
If you understand that the word “flesh” in the Bible refers to the human part of us, the part that is lost in the consciousness of separation from the Spirit of God… not the body, but the consciousness of separation and all that it implies, you will understand what it means to be carnally minded.
When you use the I AM affirmations and meditate on the I AM Presence acting in every area of your life, you have turned to the Spirit… wherein life and peace lies.
When you take your eyes off the Mighty Presence you are focusing on self or the natural law of this dimension. Natural law without God is the Law of Sin and Death.
We are not meant to be limited by the natural laws of this dimension. The I AM Presence is the assurance of our access into the Supernatural Miracle Working Power of God. This power is always available to us to bring life, peace, health, prosperity and joy into our lives.
The I AM Presence is a kin to “Dwelling in the Secret Place of the Most High” reference in Psalms 91.
Understand these simple concepts and you have the key to manifesting the complete will of God into your life!
An Ambassador of His Glory,
Marty Dow
