As new sons of God awaken to the reality of the Kingdom of God, two powerful concepts provide a roadmap for walking in clarity and strength: the Triad Relationship and the Mirror Principle. These principles help new believers understand how the Father works within them and through them, shaping their lives in the Kingdom and empowering them to live in alignment with divine truths.
In this article, we’ll explore how the Triad Relationship clarifies our divine connection with the Father, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit, and how the Mirror Principle reflects the work of the Father in our lives, making us more clear and strengthened as sons of God.
The Triad: The Father, The Son, and You
The Triad Relationship describes the interaction between three fundamental elements in the Kingdom of God: God the Father, Jesus Christ the Son, and you—the newly awakened son or daughter of God. Understanding this divine connection brings clarity to how God works in our lives, making us more aware of our role and identity in the Kingdom.
God the Father: The Father is the source of all creation, the initiator of divine work in our lives. When Jesus said, "the Father who dwells in me does the works" (John 14:10), He highlighted an important truth: the Father is the one doing the work through us. As His children, we are vessels through which the Father manifests His will, grace, and power in the world.
Jesus Christ the Son: Jesus is our example and mediator, the one who connects us to the Father. Through His sacrifice, we are brought into a direct relationship with God. Jesus teaches us how to live as sons of God, walking in the Spirit and allowing the Father to work through us, just as He did.
You (The Child of God): As a son or daughter of God, you are now part of this divine triad. Your role is to align yourself with the will of the Father and allow His work to manifest in your life. This means yielding to the Holy Spirit, following Christ’s example, and trusting that the Father’s work will be reflected in your daily walk.
The beauty of the Triad Relationship is that it reveals a truth that may be overlooked: it is not by our own strength or ability that we manifest the Kingdom of God, but by the Father working through us. This realization takes the burden off of our shoulders and places our confidence in God, who promises to complete the work He began in us (Philippians 1:6).
The Mirror Principle: Reflecting the Father’s Work in Your Life
The Mirror Principle is an essential concept for understanding how God works in us and through us. It teaches that our external reality is often a reflection of what’s happening within us spiritually. As new sons of God, the more we align ourselves with the Father’s truth, the more we will see His work reflected in our daily lives.
When Jesus said, "I only do what I see the Father doing" (John 5:19), He was explaining the Mirror Principle. Jesus’ life was a perfect reflection of the Father’s will because He was constantly aligned with the Father’s work. As we walk in the Kingdom of God, we are called to do the same—allowing our lives to mirror the work of the Father.
Here are three key ways the Mirror Principle operates in the life of a new son of God:
The Father’s Work is Reflected in Your Transformation: The first thing you’ll notice as a new son of God is the inner transformation that begins to take place. The Father is at work renewing your mind, healing your heart, and aligning your desires with His will (Romans 12:2). As this inner work unfolds, it is reflected in your outward life. You begin to live differently—your actions, words, and relationships begin to mirror the changes happening within you. This is the evidence of the Father’s work, making you clearer in your identity and purpose.
The Mirror Shows Where Growth is Needed: The Mirror Principle also works to reveal areas in your life that still need alignment with God’s will. When you encounter difficulties or patterns of struggle, these are often reflections of internal beliefs or habits that are not fully in tune with the Kingdom. The Father uses these reflections to guide you into deeper transformation, showing you where growth is needed. By allowing the Father to do the work in these areas, you become more aligned with His purpose and stronger in your walk as a son of God.
Living in the Father’s Strength, Not Your Own: The most powerful aspect of the Mirror Principle is the realization that you do not need to strive or struggle to make things happen. It is the Father who does the work, and your role is to reflect His will. As you grow in this understanding, you become more reliant on the Father’s strength rather than your own. Jesus said, “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest” (Matthew 11:28). This rest comes from knowing that the Father is the one at work in your life, and your job is simply to trust, follow, and reflect.
The Father Does the Work: Aligning with His Will
A key revelation for new sons of God is understanding that the Father is always working in the background, orchestrating events, shaping our hearts, and guiding us toward His will. Jesus’ entire ministry was based on this truth—He did nothing out of His own initiative but only what the Father was doing.
In the same way, as sons of God, we must learn to trust in the Father’s work. Here’s how this alignment with the Father strengthens us and brings clarity:
Daily Surrender to the Father: Just as Jesus surrendered to the Father’s will, we must surrender daily to God’s work in our lives. This means being willing to let go of control and trust that God’s plans are higher than our own (Isaiah 55:9). As we surrender, the Father is able to work more freely through us, bringing about His will in ways we could never accomplish on our own.
Listening and Obeying: The Father’s work often requires us to listen for His voice and respond in obedience. As we grow in our relationship with Him, we become more attuned to the Holy Spirit’s leading. Jesus said, “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me” (John 10:27). Obedience to the Father’s voice strengthens our ability to reflect His will and walk in His power.
Living in Faith, Not Fear: One of the greatest barriers to seeing the Father’s work in our lives is fear. Fear comes when we believe we have to do everything on our own, but faith grows when we understand that the Father is the one doing the work. As we step out in faith, trusting that the Father is guiding us, we become more clear in our purpose and walk with greater strength in the Kingdom.
Strengthening Your Walk in the Kingdom
As you continue to awaken to your identity as a son of God, here are some practical ways to grow in the understanding of the Triad Relationship and the Mirror Principle:
Spend Time with the Father in Prayer: Cultivate a deeper relationship with the Father through daily prayer. Seek His will, listen for His voice, and allow Him to guide your steps. As you grow closer to the Father, you will see His work more clearly in your life.
Meditate on the Word of God: The Word of God is a mirror that reflects who we truly are in Christ. By meditating on scriptures that affirm your identity as a son of God, you will strengthen your faith and align yourself more with the Father’s will (James 1:22-25).
Walk in the Spirit: Walking in the Spirit means living in alignment with the Father’s work in your life. When you walk in the Spirit, you allow the Father to work through you, manifesting His love, power, and wisdom in every area of your life (Galatians 5:16-18).
Conclusion: Trust the Father’s Work in You
As a new son or daughter of God, you are awakening to a life of clarity, strength, and divine purpose in the Kingdom. The Triad Relationship reveals the beautiful connection between the Father, Jesus, and you, while the Mirror Principle shows how the Father’s work is reflected in your life.
Trust that the Father is doing the work in you, and as you align yourself with His will, you will grow stronger and clearer in your identity as a child of God. Allow the Mirror Principle to guide you in your walk, knowing that as you reflect the Father’s will, you will manifest the Kingdom of God in your life and the world around you.
