RULES RE-ALIGNMENT
The rules we use to navigate life with can be destructive or constructive. The scripture we’ve always heard is “ Do unto others as you would have them do unto you “ has been sorely misunderstood. It takes getting to know someone before you can actually treat them like you want to be treated. What you like may be uncomfortable for someone else, and vice/versa.
Personal standards are the internal rules you set for how you must think, act, and allow others to treat you, and “rules realignment” is the process of consciously changing those rules so they actually serve your values instead of sabotaging them. Put simply, values say what matters; rules and standards decide when you’re “allowed” to feel that you’re living up to those values.
What general rules are is a societal conditional belief such as “If X happens (or fails to happen), then I am successful, worthy, safe, loved, etc.”. These rules sit between deep core beliefs and surface thoughts, shaping automatic reactions and emotions in everyday situations.
Typical personal standard rules include things like “I must never disappoint anyone” or “I only deserve rest when everything is done perfectly,” which flow out of deeper beliefs about self‑worth and safety. When these rules are rigid or unrealistic, they create chronic stress, shame, or perfectionism even when life is objectively going well.
Personal standard rules are your chosen expectations for your own behavior, attitudes, and boundaries; they are effectively a self‑authored code of what you will and will not accept in how you live and how others treat you. They show up in domains like work ethic, honesty, health habits, relationships, and time use, and they strongly influence your sense of identity and self‑respect.
Psychology writers note that healthy high standards are linked to adaptive forms of perfectionism, motivation, and positive mood, whereas unrealistically high or harsh standards tend to fuel self‑criticism and distress. In raising your “personal rules standards” means turning vague “shoulds” into non‑negotiable “musts” that align with your values, such as “I must tell the truth, even when it’s uncomfortable” or “I must move my body daily.
How standards and rules interact
Values are the “what” (e.g., love, integrity, contribution), and personal rules/standards are the “how you know you’re living them.” For example, if the value is “being loving,” one person’s rule might be “I’m loving only if everyone approves of me,” while a realigned rule could be “I’m loving when I act with kindness and honesty, even if some people disagree.
Cognitive models describe this stack as core beliefs → rules/assumptions → automatic thoughts, meaning that changing rules and standards is a leverage point for changing emotional experience without necessarily changing deep theology or overall worldview.
In practical personal‑development work, rules realignment is about making your emotional rules fair, under your control, and generous—easy ways to feel you are living your standards, and fewer, narrower paths to conclude you have failed.
A compact way to frame “general rules” and “personal standard rules” is:
• Value: “What matters most here?”
• Old rule: “Right now I only let myself feel I’m living this value when X nearly‑impossible condition is met.
• New standard rule: “From now on, I count myself as living this value whenever I do A/B/C concrete, controllable behaviors in ordinary life.
These concepts are clearly depicted in a walk of the spirit. The fruit of the spirit should be the standard for all of our personal standard rules.
Love is the only way we can negotiate life effectively. For instance, loving your neighbor as yourself is quite different than loving your enemies. You may ask, “ who is my neighbor “? I’ve known people who’ve never even met their neighbors. In this context, your neighbors are those who you have close fellowship with. Scripture also tells us to not love the world neither the things that are in the world…. If we do, then the love of the Father is not in us. Loving the “world “ is referring to the system of the world and the way they deal with life situations.
So, evaluate your rules and and determine if they need to be re-aligned.

This is what’s on my mind:

UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT
We can see in the Old Testament that David had a beautiful relationship with the Holy Spirit. He
had just been confronted by the prophet Nathan over his adulterous relationship with Bathsheba. His heart of repentance is clearly revealed in Psalm 51:10–12:
"Create in me a clean heart, O God,
And renew a steadfast spirit within me.
Do not cast me away from Your presence,
And do not take Your Holy Spirit from me.
Restore to me the joy of Your salvation,
And uphold me by Your generous Spirit."
The cry of his heart wasn't to keep his position as king or to hold on to power. He only wanted to preserve his relationship with God, the Holy Spirit. He had a personal relationship with Him, one that was intimate and real. David had known and loved Him since he was a young boy shepherding the sheep. It was during that season of his life that he experienced the Person of the Holy Spirit working alongside him. Anointed at a young age by the prophet Samuel, David fell in love with God's presence. He was empowered by God for specific roles, but he learned that the presence of the Holy Spirit was worth more than anything else in this life.
Moses also had a deep relationship with the Holy Spirit throughout his life. God's presence meant more to him than the miraculous displays of power they witnessed in their midst.
-Exodus 33:11–15,
“So the LORD spoke to Moses face to face, as a man speaks to his friend. And he would return to the camp, but his servant Joshua the son of Nun, a young man, did not depart from the tabernacle. Then Moses said to the LORD, 'See, You say to me, "Bring up this people." But You have not let me know whom You will send with me. Yet You have said, "I know you by name, and you have also found grace in My sight." Now therefore, I pray, if I have found grace in Your sight, show me now Your way, that I may know You and that I may find grace in Your sight. And consider that this nation is Your people.' And He said, 'My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.' Then he said to Him, 'If Your Presence does not go with us, do not bring us up from here.”
The thunder and lightning on Mount Sinai were for the people to revere God—it wasn't for Moses. He had already established an intimate relationship with Him.
There are many men and women throughout history before the cross who shared that common thread of intimacy with the Person of the Holy Spirit.
The disciples also experienced that same relationship with Him as they walked with Jesus. They too, were before the cross and, therefore, not yet born again.
All of these Old Testament saints experienced the power of the Holy Spirit and were able to know Him in a personal and intimate way. In fact, it is a staple of our teaching today that each of us should build a personal relationship with Him. We are taught to surrender to Him, die to ourselves, and allow Him to pour into us. We even sing songs like "I want to dance as David danced," expressing our desire to know Him more closely.
While this is beautiful and important, Jesus made it clear that this personal relationship was only to be the beginning, not the focus, of our walk with Him.
Many believers have missed this point and remain frustrated that their lives do not reflect the life of Christ. Why would we settle for something made available before the cross when so much more has been made available to us after it?
Jesus told the disciples in John 14:16–17, "And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever—the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you." He told them that, at that moment, before they were born again, they knew the Holy Spirit from the outside.
This is how many in the Church still seek Him: as a personal relationship. While that is powerful and precious, it is also what the saints of old experienced. But, Jesus said, "and will be in you."
This is where I believe the modern Church has missed the mark.
Jesus was telling His disciples that after they were saved, they would receive something entirely new, a work of the Holy Spirit within them. This is greater than an encounter.
Encounters are powerful, but they are momentary. The work He does within us is lasting. It is what transforms us and builds Christ in us, His love, His joy, His peace, His holiness. This is not received from the outside in but built from the inside out. This does not come simply from basking in His presence or attending a church service. This is a work that happens when we allow the river of living water to flow through us.
You can enjoy a live football game from the stands, but it doesn't change you. You can stand in the sun and feel its heat, even get a tan, but if you could take the power of that sun, compress it into a small ball, and place it inside of
you, that would be something entirely different.
In the same way, the Church has placed too much focus on what the Old Testament saints had and
neglected the path to true transformation. When you pray in the Holy Spirit, that is where the deeper work begins, not just around you, but in you. Let's do both: love and experience His beautiful presence on the outside and allow Him to establish Christ within us.
Everything thing changed at the outpouring of the Holy Spirit and he became the new manager ( administrator) of God’s kingdom. Jesus turned the work of the Kingdom over to us and a brand new administration led by the Holy Spirit, along with everything needed to succeed.

QUIT STRAINING TO PRODUCE

Christianity is not behavioral modification going from being bad to being good. And while that is a great start, there is so much more available to you. Christianity is actually moving from living in death to living in life.
In your first birth, you were breathing, but your existence was rooted in a source of darkness and death. But in your second birth, you were born from life—the very life of God. Your old nature of sin was quickened into a nature of righteousness.
This new nature of light is like a seed. Not only is it your source of Godly life, but it also has the potential to form Christ in you. Just as a seed can grow into a giant fruit tree, your new nature can grow the characteristics of Jesus in your inner man. This is not automatic; it is a process called transformation. The life of God that is now in you can bring forth in you the very same life it brought forth in Jesus when He walked on the
earth as a man.
So many believers spend their lives attempting to reshape their outer man to act like Jesus instead of pouring into their inner man and actually becoming like Jesus. The modern church has embraced this path from the pulpit by preaching how we need to love like Jesus, without sharing how to accomplish that incredible commandment.
So many of us have shared our love in the name of Jesus but missed out on the path available to each believer to develop the same love that Jesus walked in every day of His adult life. Acting like Jesus is not enough to win the world over. Maybe you’ve tried confessing that you could be who the Bible said you are. You’ve tried identifying with Christ, and you’ve even acted out putting on the armor of God each morning, piece by piece. All those practices help us but they are unable to complete our ability to become like Christ. Faith alone is the only way to
salvation, but if you want to carry the attributes of Jesus, you must become them through transformation.
Galatians 5:22-23 tells us, “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.” The many different types of fruit mentioned here are talking about the same emotions and attitudes that Jesus had on this earth. They are available to us only as fruit from the new nature of Christ in you. They do not come by faith alone, nor can they come by effort. They only come forward the same way fruit shows up on a mature tree. The clear call is to live life from the fruit of the spirit.
Too many of us have been living the Christian life by striving and working hard in our own strength, depending on
the flesh.
We are called instead to live from this fruit of the spirit. This is what God wants for our lives: to be able to live each day and minister to others from the fruit of Christ.
Fruit does not come automatically from the seed; it only comes forth effortlessly from a mature tree. We cannot produce this fruit by our own striving or by trying harder in the
flesh. A branch cannot bear fruit by itself. ( We’re all guilty of doing this) It must abide in the vine. Jesus said in John 15 that without Him, we can do nothing.
As we abide in Christ, the fruit comes forth. Transformation takes place as we
begin to live from the fruit of the spirit rather than from the good works of the flesh.
Why are we, the church, still striving and living from the works of the flesh? When there is a path to live from the fruit of the spirit. We are invited to stop striving in our own strength, to live from the fruit that comes from the spirit freely.
The same spirit who raised Christ from the dead lives in you. As Christ is formed in you, you will live from this place. Your past has no power to limit you. Your struggles cannot overpower you because you are no longer the source of your own life. You can have as much of God as you want.
The final question is, “How can I build the tree of Christ in me?” Paul gives us the answer in Galatians 6:7-9: “Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap
everlasting life. And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.”
Sow into your spirit (inner man), and the fruit of Christ will come forth. Spend
time praying in tongues, worshiping, and in the Word of God. Don’t lose heart, trust that this process works for you.

TONGUES; What’s the deal?
The language of God that we call tongues is NOT given for mere evidence of the Baptism of the Holy Spirit. It’s a mistake to relegate it to the level of a one time experience.
I’ve had my prayer language since December 31 1973. The church I was raised in vehemently opposed it, so naturally it was a huge deal when I received it. I got married 40 days later and mom and dad came down to Florida ( where I lived ) to attend the wedding. I remember what mom asked me when she was talking to me, she said “ what has happened to you ? You have a completely different personality.”And I told her what happened to me.
Tongues was given to the Body of Christ ( all of it ) to complete the Great Commission with power and authority.
Several years ago God allowed me to see the reaction from Satan’s board room just after the day of Pentecost happened. He (Satan) said ( among many other things ) that we have to stop this because we are not capable of stopping Jesus’ commands with them having this ability. And I might say he has done a wonderful job of stopping it and limiting it in the lives of believers. It’s the single most controversial subject in the whole world especially for ignorant Christians. I used that word on purpose because people ignore this vital operation of the spirit more than any biblical subject.
Time or space will not allow me to elaborate in this forum but I want to leave something for you to ponder.
There are four things that’s born out of praying in tongues.
1Corinthians 14:6 “Now, brethren, if, I come unto you speaking with tongues, what, shall I profit you, except, I shall speak to you either by revelation, or, by knowledge, or, by prophesying, or, by doctrine? “
1. Revelation ( He reveals the Word )
2. Knowledge ( He opens what is knowable to your understanding)
3. Prophesying ( He shows you things to come)
4. Doctrine ( He teaches you as much as you allow him to )
All four of these are derived from the Holy Spirit through praying in tongues which is the Word of God. You hold the reins not God. There are 4 different kinds of tongues and each have their place in our lives.
There’s so much more I can say about this but as I said not on this platform.
In looking into this always remember that your intellect (the natural mind)is the enemy of your spirit because it sees revelation as foolishness.
Seek this with all your heart because what’s coming upon the earth in the near future will require a revelation to walk in every day.

MATURITY: THE FATHER FACTOR

When we speak of fathers and mothers in the faith, we are referring to those who have remained consistently grounded in the Word and active within His church. They have progressed beyond the stage of a mature son or daughter and have developed the ability to parent and mentor other leaders. Attending Bible school, holding a position or title, or even being used in the Gifts of the Spirit does not automatically make one mature. Maturity is knowing God’s heart and His ways so well that we can be trusted to walk the fine line between His justice and His grace as an example for others.
This kind of maturity can only be proven through time and tribulation. It is often observed that you never really know someone until you have gone through a few fires with them. One of the marks of spiritual fathers in the New Testament is that they have walked with people long enough through trials, failures, victories, and seasons of growth that they can genuinely speak into their lives. In that sense, the saying captures a truth that Paul demonstrated with Timothy. Paul was not merely another person in Timothy’s life; he was his patēr—his spiritual father, mentor, and parent in the faith.
Was Paul perfect? Certainly not. Even when speaking of himself near the end of his ministry, he was careful to remember where he came from. Consider what he writes in 1 Timothy 1:15–17:
15 This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief.
16 However, for this reason I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might show all long suffering, as a pattern to those who are going to believe on Him for everlasting life.
17 Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, to God who alone is wise, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen.
“Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief.” Paul pulls no punches here. Even at this stage of his life, he never forgot what he had been saved from. This level of humility seems to be a trademark of each of the apostles we have discussed throughout this series. Paul, Peter, and John all arrived at the level of “father,” yet none of them forgot what they had been delivered from or by whom they had been delivered.
Let us take a closer look at the Apostle John as we conclude this series. In 1 John,we find the term “father” mentioned several times. John understood what it meant to be a father, and he seems to have fully understood the cost required to become one. Like Paul, he does not soften the requirements. Consider what he writes in 1 John chapter 2, where we find one of the most concise progressions from little children to fathers. 1 John 2:12–14:
12 I write to you, little children,
Because your sins are forgiven you for His name’s sake.
13 I write to you, fathers,
Because you have known Him who is from the beginning.
I write to you, young men,
Because you have overcome the wicked one.
I write to you, little children,
Because you have known the Father.
14 I have written to you, fathers,
Because you have known Him who is from the beginning.
I have written to you, young men,
Because you are strong, and the word of God abides in you,
And you have overcome the wicked one.
What is the hallmark of a father? “Because you have known Him who is from the beginning.” This statement carries tremendous significance, especially when considered within the broader context of 1 John. The phrase “you have known Him” is built upon the Greek word Strong’s 1097 – γινώσκω (ginōskō). In this context, the meaning is especially important to our discussion of spiritual fatherhood. It highlights a person who has arrived at a fellowship approved by God and whose witness provides a proper example for those who are spiritually younger. This is precisely what John is emphasizing as he addresses the fathers, little children, and young men. The direction John is taking becomes even clearer when we continue reading in chapter 2:
15 Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
16 For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not of the Father but is of the world.
17 And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.
The role of the spiritual father within the church is clear. He must serve as an example to those who are younger in the faith, helping them take their eyes off the glitter of the world and focus instead on the love of God. This can only be accomplished by those who have themselves matured.
Natural leadership books and leadership training are valuable. I am fully supportive of the practical application of these principles in personal growth. However, natural leadership alone will never produce spiritual maturity. The reason is simple: natural success, apart from genuine fellowship with God, can camouflage spiritual immaturity and quickly redirect our focus toward “the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life.”
This is why spiritual fathers must remain equally committed to expressing the heart of God. Notice where John goes next. 1 John 2:20–21
20 But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you know all things.
21 I have not written to you because you do not know the truth, but because you know it, and that no lie is of the truth.
This is an interesting turn in John’s writing. After addressing fathers, young men, and little children—and emphasizing the responsibility of fathers to model proper fellowship with God—he immediately points everyone back to the abiding strength available within them: “But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you know all things.” The word translated “know” here is different. John uses Strong’s 1492 – εἴδω (eidō), which conveys the idea of perceiving and understanding with complete clarity. It speaks of a settled awareness or confident understanding rather than simply possessing information. John now shifts the focus to the Holy Spirit. He emphasizes how blessed every believer is to have intimate fellowship with the One who “knows all things”, allowing us to trust this anointing to bear witness to the truth.
Perhaps you are saying to yourself, “I do not have a strong spiritual example in my life. I do not have someone who can lead me into the deeper things of God.” John would answer that we have the Holy One and therefore, we are without excuse.
“My pastor is not spiritual enough.”
“My leaders are not spiritual enough.”
“My spouse is not spiritual enough.”
“My workplace is not spiritual.”
“My friends are not spiritual.”
John reminds us that we have access to the Holy Spirit Himself.
“I have not written to you because you do not know the truth, but because you know it.”
Who is John addressing here? The answer is found in verse 18: “Little children.” We discussed this stage earlier in the series as the paidion stage. As we have said repeatedly throughout these letters, spiritual maturity is not determined by titles, positions, or worldly accomplishments. It is measured by fruit. This means every believer has the ability to grow, regardless of where they came from or what their life looked like before Christ. The real question is whether we are willing to do what is necessary to make that growth happen. Notice how John continues in 1 John chapter 3, verses 1–3:
1 Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! Therefore the world does not know us, because it did not know Him.
2 Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is.
3 And everyone who has this hope in Him purifies himself, just as He is pure.
These verses are remarkable in light of everything we have discussed. John says, “Behold what manner of love…that we should be called children of God!” Notice that he includes himself; He says “we.” He then adds, “It has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him.” This is truly the defining characteristic of spiritual maturity: we shall be like Him.
To become like Him, we must know Him through consistent and intimate fellowship. Regardless of how you view yourself, regardless of how others view you, your growth will ultimately be determined by where you place your focus. Keep your eyes on Him. Spend time with Him daily. No amount of time invested in any other pursuit can replace genuine fellowship with the Lord.

WE MUST LEARN HOW TO CHANGE

Romans 12:2 “And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.”
Conformed-syschēmatízō = to conform one's self (i.e. one's mind and character) to another's pattern, (fashion one's self according to) literally to change from the outside in. This is the way of religion.
Transformed-metamorphóō= to change into another form, to transform, to transfigure. To change from the inside out. The way of the Spirit.
What are the 7 characteristics of a transformed life?
A transformed life goes beyond superficial habits to alter your core default settings, bringing lasting changes to your mind, heart, and actions. Rooted in continuous growth, it is typically defined by seven core characteristics:
-A Renewed Mindset: Shifting from worldly values and selfish pride to aligning your thoughts and perspectives with truth and passion.
-Unconditional Compassion: Demonstrating Christ-like love and forgiveness towards others, placing the needs of those around you before your own.
-A Desire for Holiness: Pursuing a lifestyle that is steadfast in righteousness, honest, and separated from destructive or negative habits.
-Active Service & Stewardship: Giving back selflessly and serving others with the specific talents, time, and resources you have been given.
-Consistent Prayer and Worship: Engaging regularly in spiritual disciplines and maintaining a continuous dialogue and focus on God.
-Building Healthy Relationships: Actively seeking reconciliation, honoring your community, and fostering peaceful, uplifting connections with others.
-Patient Endurance: Learning to endure and maintain your faith, finding inner peace and resilience even when facing difficult circumstances.
All lasting change is effortless. Focus is the key. You will gravitate toward what you focus on.
