Self-Reliance, A Christian Prerogative

“Go with me now un-bound by worldly knowledge and removed from time to a place known as self-reliance strategically located between adolescence and the lack of cognitive awareness. It is a place defined by seven developmental waypoints arranged purposefully so that capturing the first qualifies pursuit of the second, then the third, the fourth, the fifth, the sixth and the seventh at which point self-reliance sits atop the way in which the human life form seeks to define its value. Never before revealed herein lies the only definitive pathway to self-reliance”.

1. First and foremost becoming one with the glorified Spirit of Jesus Christ the Messiah through the invitational Union of redemption, salvation! 

2. Acquiring through prayer, a relationship with the Three In One Creator as directed by his indwelling presence.

3. Perfecting an awareness of self, a holy creation, endowed with giftings infused into the human spirit as a means of developing a vision of life in pursuit of a divine calling immersed in self fulfillment of purpose.

4. Claiming as a Christian inheritance the mind of Christ that equips the remaining two pillars of the soul, the will and the emotions, to recognize and support the vision cast in number three.

5. Believing without doubting the pathway to self-reliance has now been identified and secured by Divine empowerment to overcome any obstacle standing in the way of realizing the vision, now sanctified as to purpose and divinely guarded to resist doubt.

6. Acting upon instinctual glimpses of the vision that suggest a sense of accomplishment providing encouragement to pursue even greater views of the vision.

7. Boldly claiming the vision fulfilled when self-reliance takes its place as a gift of faith.
