How to Walk in the New Law

Psalm 103:10-12 He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.  For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them that fear him.  As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us.
 
Hebrews 8:10-13 *12-13 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.  In that he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the first old.  Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away.
 
“I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more”
 
There is a new law and new priesthood, right? Right. But what are the rules and what are the guidelines.  ??
 
Here is the short version, but to study this will do wonders within our souls….
 
The commandment is to love one another.  As Christ gave his life for us, we should lay down our lives for each other, if it is necessary. If that is what the Lord has purposed for you to do. Wow. That’s a heavy statement. Each soul has a God given purpose to fulfill that honors Abba Father. Seek the Lord concerning your purpose to fulfill.
 
There are lots of scriptures to give us guidelines to how Jesus Christ has instructed us to live.  The gospels are full of them, and so is the rest of the new testament. 
 
Then there is the priesthood that is now after the order of Melchisedec rather than the Levitical priesthood. Hebrews 7:15-17 *17 For he testifieth, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.
 
Then there is the change of the law. Romans 8:2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. The law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus now works within us declaring His Righteousness for our liberty. Read Romans 8 and be blessed in the Lord.  There are other places it reveals of the changing of the law… Let’s look at a couple more in Hebrews.
 
Hebrews 7:12 For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law.
 
Hebrews 8:10-13 which tells us of the New Covenant too.  And this is where we can see that the Lord wants to put His Laws into our minds and write upon our hearts…  THIS is part of that “process” of being born again… A New Law is put in you, and WRITTEN by His Own Hand/Spirit in you. Engraved. Engrafted. 
 
AND in the New Covenant He tells us that our sins and iniquities will no longer be remembered!  He doesn’t see SIN in this new law for those that have this new covenant. It isn’t part of the equation, if you have now received and allowed Jesus Christ to be your Savior.  He removed it out of the way. ! .  Instead GRACE is seen!  And in this GRACE there is now His Righteousness Standing Fast to declare US Righteous so that we may abide in Eternal Life…. now.  
 
Romans 5:20-21 Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound.  But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:  That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.
 
Hallelujah!  A New Law within us now, so that we Walk by the New Law in the Spirit of Life by faith, not the old law that revealed sin and produced death through the works of the flesh man.   
 
Now As We Walk by faith into this Grace in which we stand, and as we are pressing in to His Kingdom from faith to faith and glory to glory…..  say… we… stumble and fall by that unregenerate carnal mind that you might not have been fully freed from yet….  What Happens?
 
In This NEW LAW…. GRACE Abounds where sin once was, and Eternal Life where death once was.  MERCY is speaking on your behalf… because you have invited and received and allowed the Lamb of God to set up house within your soul.  That Blood of Jesus Christ is speaking in you, and upholding you in every situation and step of your walk.
 
If it is revealed in your Soul and Conscience that you’ve done something out of character of the Spirit of Christ, and you feel remorse and the Lord tugging on your heart that it was wrong, then that is when you can turn your heart to the Lord to apologize and ask Him to show you the right way to walk and think and have the situation corrected by either you stop doing what you were doing that was wrong, or by the Lord burning it out of you.  Either way God’s corrective ways in Grace will bring forth more of His Righteousness and Holiness (Hebrews 12). His MERCY, GRACE, and LOVE is providing you the Path to correct that issue or problem or concern without FEAR of being separated from our Father and Kingdom.
 
“…merciful to their unrighteousness…” but does Mercy mean no correction? NO NO NO….  trust me on this…. Our FATHER does Give Correction especially in this New Law. But His correction is not to destroy.  It is to bring forth More Righteousness… less of the carnal mind and more of Christ’s Mind taking over… being subdued unto Him!  Hallelujah!.  Look at Hebrews 12:All.  Here are verses 10-11
 
Hebrews 12:10-11 For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness. Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.
 
Oh Praise you Father! For such Love and Assurance! We love you!
 
So, we can come boldly to the throne of Grace and receive Mercy to fix the issue. It is now about a RELATIONSHIP, and COMMUNICATION with THE FATHER, out of a Just and Humble Heart.  BELIEVING what He Tells Us. Just TALK and COMMUNE with the FATHER, and LEARN of HIM his Ways.  Be Obedient.
 
Listen, Learn, and REST in the Son/Father.  Let obedience and a willing heart come forth in all Wisdom, Knowledge, and Understanding of His Will for you. ENJOY your NEW Life IN the Kingdom of the Lord.  LEARN of Him and find Rest for your souls.  Matthew 11:27-30
 
Amen.
