NO EARTHLY GOOD
No Earthly Good
Colossians 3:1-4(KJV)
1If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.
2Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.
3For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.
4When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.
One of the lies of the devil is you shouldn’t be so heavenly minded that you are no earthly good. That is so far from the truth and the church has bought into that saying as being true.
We are instructed as true Christians to base our lives from the heavenly aspect. Seek those things that are above where Christ sits in the place of power and authority. He is the ultimate supplier of ALL that we have need of according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
Set your affection that is to say (intensively to interest oneself in (with concern or obedience) as part of the meaning from STRONGS GREEK AND HEBREW DICTIONARY) to the word affection. If you can remember when you were going out with “the one true love of your life” the one you just couldn’t get enough of. The one you thought about all day long and called every time you got a chance even right you left each other just a few minutes ago. With that kind of intensity seek those things that are above…
Jesus Christ is your life and He is supposed to be seen in you. Your life is NOT supposed to reflect Him but show Him as alive in you. It is not longer I THAT LIVETH BUT Christ that liveth in me. Jesus said we are lights in the world not reflections. The problem in the church is just that. People don’t mind reflecting something because that doesn’t demand that they change but being a light demands we change and be to be seen as light.
You need to be so heavenly minded so as to be some earthly good. You are to be a witness unto the Lord in all the earth. The gospel is to be in power and not just words.

When Thou Hast Brought Forth ---
Exodus 3:9-12(KJV)
9Now therefore, behold, the cry of the children of Israel is come unto me: and I have also seen the oppression wherewith the Egyptians oppress them.
10Come now therefore, and I will send thee unto Pharaoh, that thou mayest bring forth my people the children of Israel out of Egypt.
11And Moses said unto God, Who am I, that I should go unto Pharaoh, and that I should bring forth the children of Israel out of Egypt?
12And he said, Certainly I will be with thee; and this shall be a token unto thee, that I have sent thee: When thou hast brought forth the people out of Egypt, ye shall serve God upon this mountain.
A lot of times we miss what was said in the entire conversation with God. Here is what I see that God said. What God was telling Moses to do was already done as far as God is concerned. God had said I have come down to deliver MY people. He had already identified with them called them His people and said He was about to deliver them. Moses was the one through God chose to work.
Moses questions God at every step and asks. Who am I that I should go unto Pharaoh?
It doesn't depend on who we are but who HE is and what He wants to accomplish through our lives. He would teach what to say and the victory doesn't depend on who you are, what talent you have, how you speak but the victory depends upon the Lord. Just say what He wants said, everything else is on Him. Pastors would do good to understand this. God is the deliverer and He has chosen you as one who will say what He wants said to the people that He wants to say it to. Obedience is better than sacrifice.
You see we are the called according to His purpose! I then with Paul, must apprehend that for which I have been apprehended.
Blessings on Ya!
