TRUST GOD & HE WILL LEAD YOU

When you trust somebody you believe that they won't lie to you, they won't do nothing wrong to you and they won't mislead you. Trust is the biggest part of any relationship. In Psalm 56:3&4 - "When I am afraid I will trust in you! In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust. I will not be afraid, what can mortal man do to me?" This will eliminate fear, I am convinced when I'm afraid, putting my trust in God. He leads me away from fear.

It's a simple task, all you need to do is ask for his help. Matthew 7:7&8 - "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks find and to him who knocks, the door will be opened." We must talk to God by praying. There will be no relationship with Father God without praying to him. Praying is your main relationship with God. If you don't believe you don't receive. Mark 11:24 - "Therefore, I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you received it, and it will be yours."

Second thing, we must submit to God, to be led by God. I Peter 5:6 - "Humble yourselves therefore, under God's mighty hand, that he may life you up in do time." When facing problems, humble yourself to God and he will lead you, out of your problems, because you have asked him and have submitted to his ways. So trust God and he will lead you every time!

My oldest son Thomas wrote this in 2002, he was ten years old then.

NEW TESTAMENT

Our Wonderful LORD has been impressing upon myself this past week of the importance of New Testament teaching. We are the Church, we find and learn about what we believe about who we are in the New Testament. Paul instructs us on the basis of our foundantion: 1st Corinthians 2:1-3 And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God. For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified. And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling. My brothers and sisters in Chirst, I am appalled and shocked at the teaching and preaching that has come forth from pulpits, it has waxed worse and moved away from Jesus the Christ, Him crucified and Him risen. That is where the "power" is. The power of the Gospel of Jesus the Christ, it's all about what Jesus did!! The stripes, the blood that was shed. Even when Jesus left this earth , He did not leave us alone, but with the Holy Spirit: John 14:16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; Peace has always been Jesus' concern for us!! And as Jesus was the "Great" Teacher, His command was not that we be ignorant also commissioned that Wonderful Comforter to be our Teacher: John 14:26 But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, [even] the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me: Here it is in a nutshell: you want God's direction? Open your Bible and P*R*A*Y, for direction from the Most High God. This is a simple key. Let the Holy Spirit lead you to God's wisdom-the Word of God-the Bible. Today we, the Church, the Body of Christ must open the Bible-seek God's direction and turn from the foolish babble of human worldly wisdom and seek the Truth that comes only from the Precious Word of God. remembering that this walk with God is personal, but as there is only one way to Heaven-through Jesus, there is but one guide book for our walk with God, the Bible. Church we need to get back to the basics of our Life within the Kingdom of God. Some need to be refreshed in these basics, other just need to learn the basics of the New Testament and get rooted and grounded. The results are left up to you, are you dedicated to your personal walk with the Lord?

GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME.........
Brothers and sisters in Christ

This day and age we are facing a very sad situation and we must realize as brothers and sisters in Christ that we are here to edify or lift up our fellow bros/sis' in Christ when they are sad or heading not only down but just plain out. We are family, family made up of sons/daughters of the Most High God in heaven, brother and sisters to Jesus Himself. But too many are turning their backs on "family members" who are in need of a hug; a God bless you; a card; phone call; or just something as simple as a smile. What a shame it is when a person is so busy that they pass by a bro or sis who is hurting and in need for the simple reason they are too busy ot too tired.

It's also sad at how walls have been placed between denominations; come now folks are we called by the name of God, or we called by the name of the denomination we choose to worship at? Think for a moment: am I a Baptist? Methodist? Assemblies of God? or am I a child of God worshiping at the house of God of my choice? Are you defined by your place of worship name? or are you defined by who you are in Christ?

It's time we all, including myself, take a hard look into ourselves and see where our comittment is; am I selfish? is my love walk where it should be? Will Jesus say to me: job well done or: go away from Me I never knew you? I without a doubt want to be on His right hand numbered with the sheep, not on the left with the goats.

GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME...
TIME TO DIVORCE HELL

WALK WITH GOD

Genesis 5:23-24 (New American Standard)
So all the days of Enoch were three hundred years after he became the father of Methuselah, and he had other sons and daughters. And Enoch walked with God; and he was not, for God took him.

Enoch was a man who walked with God. "Walking with God" simply means "living in the presence of God". In order to walk with God, live in His presence, and maintain a life such as Enoch did, we must be sure that our life is regulated by God's will and that we are devoted to God's purpose and plan.

Many people want to walk with God, but they want to walk according to their own terms, their own way. Have you seen or know someone like that? Have you every ran across someone who wanted to live for Jesus and walk with God, but wanted to do it his/her own way? No, we must walk with God according to His purpose and plan, according to God's will.

Living this kind of life requires entire self-surrender. The name "Enoch" means dedicated and carries the action of yielded to God, to be conformed to God's mind and God's will. And in the New Testament, Romans 12:2 (New American Standard) And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect.

Many people's lives would be changed if they would simply renew thir minds and change thier thinking process. You can't take the junk in without it affecting you. It is through the eye-gate and the ear-gate that the devil can and will bring tempting thoughts to your mind. You must renew your mind. If your going to surrender to God, it's all or nothing. God calls for for all of your spirit, soul, and body.
He calls for entire dedication.

We must get this straight in our minds right now: There is only one way to do things. It's not your momma's way, it's not your daddy's way, and it's not someone elses way. It's God's way, and that's the only way.

If we are going to walk with God properly, we must surrender our entire selves to God. It's not our way or that way, it's not a church's way, it's not whoever preaches it this way or that way, It's God's way, and we find God's way by renewing our minds with the Word of God.

Are you willing to walk with God like Enoch did? Are you willing to surrender your entire self? Are you willing to give everything to Him and say, alright God, I don't want my way or someelse's way, but I want Your way and Your way only, I surrender myself to you!

The great thing about walking with God isthat at the end of each day, you will have an intense satisfaction. You can say, God, I lived for You today in every way I knew how. If I didn't please You it wasn't because I wasn't trying. If I did displease You this day, show me and I will change. Please help me to change to Your way, in the name of Jesus, Amen, Amen, and Amen....

GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME!!!
FROM SUCH WITHDRAW THYSELF

Can two walk together, except they be agreed? Will a lion roar in the forrest, when he hath no prey? Will a young lion cry out of his den, if he have taken nothing? Can a bird fall in a snare upon the earth, where no gin (trap) is for him? Shall one take up a snare from the earth, and have taken nothing at all? Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? Shall there be evil in a city, and the Lord hath not done it? Surely the Lord God will do nothing, but He revealeth His secret unto His servants the prophets. The lion roared, who will fear? The Lord hath spoken, who can but prophecy?

And I will smite the winter house with the summer house; and the houses of ivory shall perish, and the great houses shall have an end, saith the Lord. For thus saith the Lord God; the city went out by a thousand shall leave an hundred, and that which went forth by an hundred shall leave ten, to the house of Israel. For thus saith the Lord unto the house of Israel, Seek ye Me, and ye shall live: For all the tables are full of vomit and filthiness, so taht there is no place clean. Whom shall He teach knowledge? and whom shall He make to understand doctrine? Them that are weaned from the milk, and drwn from the breasts. If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the doctrine which is according to Godliness; He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings, perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself.

Amos 3:3-8 GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME........
Amos 3:15
Amos 5:3-4
Isaiah 28:8-9
1st Timothy 6:3-5
A WORD FROM:

November 6th 2000

Not withstanding, continue in faith and charity (love) and holiness with sobriety. Our Lord is faithful, He shall stablish you and keep you from evil. Have confidence in the Lord touching you, that you do and will do the things which He commands you. He will direct your hearts (spirits) into the love of God, and to be patient in the waiting for Christ. Bow unto our Father, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ; of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named. You will be strengthened by His Spirit that Christ be in your hearts (spirits) by faith being planted and rooted in love. To be able to comprehend with all the saints to know the love of Christ, that ye might be filled with the fullness of God. We have all that we ask or even think according to the power that works within us. I am the vine, every branch in Me that beareth not fruit He takes away, and every branch that beareth fruit, He purgeth it, so it may bring forth more fruit. You are clean through the Word that I have spoken to you. Abide in Me and I in you. I am the vine, you are the branches. Ye shall ask and it shall be done. Glorify My Father. In the begining was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God. All things were made by Him; nothing was maade without Him, He is life, He is light. The wind blows, you can hear it but knows not where it comes from, so is everyone born of the Spirit. Verily, verily, I say to you, he that believeth on Me, the works that I shall do he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto My Father. And whatsoever ye shall ask in My name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ye sahll ask anything in My name, I will do it. But ye shall receive power after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you and ye shall be witnesses unto Me. Ye are of God, because greater is He in you, than he who is in the world. No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper, and every tongue that rise up against thee in judgement, thou shalt condemn. For I know you, ye shall call upon Me and go and pray unto Me and I will hearken unto you. And ye shall seek Me and find Me, when ye shall search for Me with all your heart.I will be found of you saith the Lord. Call unto Me and I will answer and show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not. Judge not, and ye will not be judged, condemn not and ye shall not be condemned; forgive, and ye shall be forgiven; give, and it shall be given unto you.

Woe is me for my hurt! My wound is grievous: but I said, truly this is a grief, and I must bear it. My tabernacle is spoiled, and all My cords are broken: My children
are gone forth of Me, and they are not: there is none to stretch forth My tent anymore, and set up My curtains. For the pastors are become brutish, and have not sought the Lord: therefore they shall not prosper, and all their flocks shall be scattered. Behold, the noise of the bruit (rumor) is come, and a great comotion out of the north country, to make the cities of Judah desolate, and a den of dragons.
And the Lord said unto me, a conspiracy is found amoung the men of Judah, and amoung the inhabitants of Jerusalem. They are tured back to iniquities of their forefathers, which refused to hear My words; and they went after other gods to serve them: the house of Israel and the house of Judah have broken My covenant which I made with their fathers. Therefore thus saith the Lord, behold, I will bring evil upon them, which they shall not be able to escape; and though they shall cry unto Me, I will not hearken unto them. Therefore pray not for this people, neither lift up a cry or prayer for them: for I will not hear them in the time that they cry unto Me for their trouble.

I saw the Lord standing upon the alter: and He said, smite the lintel of the door, that the posts may shake: and cut them in the head, all of them; and I will slay the the last of them with the sword (the Word): He that fleeth of them shall not flee away, and he that escapeth of them shall not be delivered. For, lo, I will command, and I will sift the house of Israel amoung all nations, like as corn is sifted in a sieve, yet shall not the least grain fall upon the earth. All the sinners of My people shall die by the sword, (the Word), which say, The evil shall not overtake nor prevent us.

The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and he shall delighteth in his way. Though he fall, he shall not utterly cast down: for the Lord upholdeth him with his hand.

Every word of God is pure, He is a shield unto them that put their trust in Him. It is God that girdeth me with strength, and maketh my way perfect. He that trusteth in his own heart is a fool: but whoso walketh wisely, he shall be delivered.

Let the saints be joyful in glory: let them sing aloud upon their beds. Let the high praises of God be in their mouth and a two-edged sword in their hand; to execute vengence in anger and fury upon the heathen, such as they have not heard.

The Lord looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God. They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is none that doeth good, no, not one. Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end; but establish the just: for the righteous God trieth the hearts and reins. My defense is of God, which saveth the upright in heart. God judgeth the righteous, and God is angery with the wicked every day. If he turn not, he will whet his sword; he hath bent his bow, and made it ready. He hath also prepared for him the insturments of death; he ordaineth his arrows against the persecuters.

For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world throught the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse for them than the beginning. For it had better for them not to have know the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them. But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, the dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that is washed to her wallowing in the mire. Ye therefore, beloved, seeing ye know these things before, beware lest ye also, being led away with the error of the wicked, fall from your own steadfastness.

Ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky and of the earth; but how is it that ye do not discern this time? Yea, and why even of yourselves judge ye not whay is right? When thou goest with thine adversary to the magistrate, as thou art in the way, give dilligence that thou mayest be delivered from him; lest he hale thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and the officer cast thee into the prison. I tell thee, thou shalt not depart hence, till thou has paid the very last mite.

But why dost thou judge thy brother? for we all shall stand before the judgement seat of Christ. For it is written, as I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to Me, and every tongue shall confess to God. So then every one of us shall give an account of himself to God. Let us not therefore judge one another anymore: but judge this rather, that no man put a stumbling block or an occasion to fall in his brother's way. Judge not, that ye be not judged. For what judgement ye judge, ye shall be judged; and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.

But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer. And above all things have frevernt charity amoung yourselves: for charity shall cover a mutitude of sins. Use hospitality one to another without grudging. Be careful for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

All that the Father giveth Me shall come to Me, and him that cometh to Me I will in no wise way cast out. For I come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but the will of Him that sent Me. And this is the Father's will which hath sent Me, that of all which He hath given Me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day. And this is the will of Him that sent Me, that everyone which seeth the Son, and believeth on Him, may heave everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day. No man can come to Me, except the Father which hath sent Me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day. It is written in the prophets, and they shall all be taught of God. Every man therefore has heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto Me.

And be not comformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect will of God. Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, make you perfect in every good work to do His will, working within you what is well pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory for ever and and ever, Amen.

For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. And the world passeth away the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth forever.

If ye willing and obedient, ye shall eat of the good of the land: Look to yourselves, that we lose not those things which we have wrought, but that we receive a full reward. Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompense of reward.

For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise. And ye now therefore have sorrow, but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no man taketh from you. And in that day ye shall ask Me nothing. Verily, Verily, I say unto you, whatsoever ye shall ask the Father, in My name, He will give it to you. Hither to have ye asked nothing in My name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.

Thine hand shall find out all thine enemies: thy right hand shall find out those that hate thee. Thou shalt make them as a fiery oven in the time of thine anger: the Lord shall follow them up in His wrath, and the fire shall devour them. Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth, and their seed from among the children of men. For they intend evil against thee; they imagined a mischievious device, which they are not able to perform. Therefore shalt thou make them turn their back, when thou shalt make ready thine arrows upon thy strings against the face of them. Be thou exaulted Lord, in Thine own strength: so we will sing and praise thy power.
Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the Lord, and against His anointed, saying, Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us. He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision (and in supreme contempt He mocks them).
Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse; A blessing, if ye obey the commandmnets of the Lord your God, which I command you this day: And a curse, if you will not obey the commandments of the Lord your God, but turn aside out of the way which I command you this day, to go after other gods, which ye have not known. And let us not be weary in well doing: for in do season we reap, if we faint not. As we have therefore oppertunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.
And who is he that will harm you, if ye be followers of that which is good? The highway of the upright is to depart from evil: he that keepeth his way preserveth his soul.

But avoid foolish questions and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain. A man that is a heretick (divisive) after the first and second admonition reject: Knowing that he that is such is subverted (warped) and sinneth, being condemed of himself. And let ours also learn to maintain good works for necessary uses, that they not be unfruitful.
Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits. Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things in honest in the sight of all men. If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men. Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, rather give place unto wrath, for it is written vengence is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.
Therefore if thine enemy be hungry, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.
Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord. According as His divine hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and Godliness, through the knowledge of Him that hath called us to glory and virtue: whereby are given unto us exceedingly great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. And besides this, giving all dilligence, add to your faith virtue: and to virtue knowledge, and to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience Godliness; and to Godliness brotherly kindness; and brotherly kindness charity. For these be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Christ Jesus. Wherefore the rather, bretheren, give dilligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things ye shall never fail:
If thou hast done foolishly in lifting up thyself, or if thou hast though evil, lay thine hand upon thy mouth. Surely the churning of milk bringeth forth butter, and the ringing of the nose bringeth forth blood: so the forcing of wrath bringeth forth strife. Every word of God is pure: He is a shield unto them that put thier trust in Him.

Wherefore laying aside all malice, and all guile, and hypocrisies, and envies, and all evil speakings. As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the Word, that ye may grow thereby: Be ye angry, and sin not; let not the sun go down upon your wrath. He taught me also, and said unto me, let thine heart stain my words: keep my commandments and live. Get wisdom, get understanding: forget it not; neither decline from the words of my mouth.
Woe to them that go down to Egypt for help; and stay on horses, and trust in chariots, because they are many; and in horsemen, because they are very strong, but they look not unto the Holy One of Israel, neither seek the Lord! Yet He also is wise, and will bring evil and will not call back His words: but will arise against the house of the evildoers, and against the help of them that work iniquity.
Now the Egyptians are men, and not God; and their horses flesh, and not spirit. When the Lord shall stretch out His hand, both he that helpeth shall fall, and he that helpeth shall fall down, and they all shall fall together.
For thus hath the Lord spoken unto me, like as the lion and the young lion roaring on his prey, when a multitude of shepherds is called forth against him, he will not be afraid of their voice, nor abase himself for the noise of them; so shall the Lord of hosts come down to fight for Mount Zion, and for the hill thereof.
Woe to these that spoilest, and thou wast not spoiled; and dealest treacherously, and they dealt not treacherously with thee! When thou shalt cease to spoil, thou shalt be spoiled; and when thou shalt make an end to deal treacherously, they shall deal treacherously with thee.
Strengthen ye the weak hands, and confirm the feeble knees. Say to them, that are of a fearful heart, BE STRONG, FEAR NOT: behold, your God will come with vengence, even God with a recompense; He will come and save you. Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped.
Not every one that saith unto Me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of the heavens; but he that doeth the will of My Father which is in heaven. Many will say in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Thy name? and in Thy name have cast out devils? and in Thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from Me, ye that work iniquity.
Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves, now that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates? These things I have spoken unto you, that in Me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

The days of visitation are come, the days of recompence are come; Israel shall know it: the prophet is a fool, the spiritual man is mad, for the multitude of thine iniquity, and the great hatred. The watchman of Ephraim was with my God: but the prophet is a snare of a fowler in all his ways, and hatred in the house of his God.They have deeply corrupted themselves, as in the days of Gibeah: therefore he will remember their iniquity, he will visit their sins.
And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots: And the Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and the fear of the Lord; And shall make him of quick understanding in the fear of the Lord: and he shall not judge after the sight of eyes, neither reprove after the hearing of his ears: But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked. And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, and faithfulness the girdle of his reins.
And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for an ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: and his rest shall be glorious. And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea. And he shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth. The envy also of Ephraim shall depart, and the adversaries of Judah shall be cut off: Ephraim shall not envy Judah, and Judah shall not vex Ephraim. But they shall fly upon the shoulders of the Philistines toward the west; they shall spoil them of the east together: they shall lay their hand upon Edom and Moab; and the children of Ammon shall obey them. And the Lord shall utterly destroy the tongue of the Egyptian sea; and with his mighty wind shall he shake his hand over the river, and shall smite in the seven streams, and make men go over dryshod. Ands there shall be an highway for the remnant of his people which shall be left, from Assyria; like as it was to Israel in the day that he came up out of the land of Egypt.
For if Jesus had given them rest, then he not afterward have spoken of another day. There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God. For he that is entered into his rest, he also has ceased from his own works, as God did from his. Let us labor therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the example of unbelief. For the Word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a decerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight; but all things are naked and open unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.
For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God: for God giveth not the Spirit by measure unto him. My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me. If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself. He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.

For the day of the Lord of hosts shall be upon every one that is proud and lofty, and upon everyone that is lifted up, and he shall be brought low; and the loftiness of man shall be bowed down, and the haughtiness of men shall be made low: and the Lord alone shall be exalted in that day. Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nosterils: for wherein is he to be accounted of?
How is the faithful city become a harlot! it was full of judgement; righteousness lodged in it; but now murders thy silver rebellious and companions of thieves: every one loveth gifts and follow after rewards: they judge not the fatherless, neither doth the cause of the widow come unto them. And I will turn My hand upon thee, and purely purge away thy dross, and take away all thy sin: and they shall call them, the holy people, the redeemed of the Lord: and thou shalt be called, sought out, a city not forsaken.
Ye therefore shall keep all My stautes, and all my judgements, and do them; that the land, whither I bring to you to dwell therein, spew you not out. And ye shall not walk in the manners of the the nation, which I cast out before you: for they committed all things, and therefore I abhorred them. But I have said unto you, ye shall inherit their land, and I will give it unto you to possess it, a land which floweth with milk and honey; I am the Lord your God, which have separated you from other people. And ye shall be holy unto Me; for I the Lord am holy, and have severed you from other people, that ye should be mine.
Cursed be their anger, for it is fierce; and their wrath, for it is cruel: I will divide them in Jacob, and scatter them in Israel. Judah, thou art he whom thy brethren shall praise: thy hand shall be on the neck of thine enemies, thy fathers children shall bow down before thee. Therefore thou shalt keep the commandments of the Lord thy God, to walk in His ways, and to fear Him.

While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen, for the things which are seen are temperal; but the things which are not seen are eternal. (For we walk by faith, not by sight). Now faith is the substance of things not seen. Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God.
For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for? But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience waith for it. (For we walk by faith, not by sight). for I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. For the preaching of the cross is to them that persih foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, the just shall live by faith.
For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this world? Hath not not God made foolsih the wisdom of this world? For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.
For the wrath of god is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold truth in unrighteousness. Because that which may be know of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. For the invisible things of them from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse.
For there is no more respect of persons with God. But without faith it is impossible to pleaase Him: For he that cometh to God must believe that He is, and He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him. Draw nigh to God, and He will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners, and purify your hearts, ye double minded.
So then faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the Word of God.

Let this mind be in you, which also was in Christ Jesus: Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made Himself of no reputation, and took upon Him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, He humbled Himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in Him: Rooted and built up in Him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving. Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the traditions of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.
O Foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you? This only would I learn of you. Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith? Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh? Have ye suffered so many things in vain? if it be yet in vain. And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed. So they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham.
And He said unto His disciples, it is inevitable that stumbling blocks should come, but woe unto him through which they come!
Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which He hath purchased with His own blood. For I know this, that after my departing shall grevious wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock.
Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep His commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. For God shall bring every work into judgement, with every secret thing, wether it be good, or wether it be evil.
Many pastors have destroyed My vineyard, they have trodden down My portion under foot, they have made My pleasant portion a desolate wilderness. For the pastors are become brutish, and have not sought the LORD: therefore they shall not prosper, and all their flock shall be scattered. And it shall come to pass, if they will dilligently learn the ways of My people, to swear by My name, The LORD liveth; as they taught My people to swear by Baal; then shall they be built in the mist of My people. But if they will not obey, i will utterly pluck up and destroy that nation, saith the LORD.
For we hear that are some which walk among you disorderly, working not at all, but are busybodies. Now them that are such we command and exort by our Lord Jesus Christ, that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread. But ye, bretheren, be not weary in well doing. And if any man not obey our word by this epistle, note that man, and have no company with him, that he may be ashamed. Yet count him not as an enemy, admonish him as a brother.
And say to Archippus, "Take heed to the ministry which you have recieved in the Lord, that ye may fulfill it.

For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in His blood, to declare His righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom also we have access by faith into His grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: Knowing that tribulation worketh patience; and patience, experience; and experience, hope:
And He said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I gather glory in my imfirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore I will take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in neccesities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: For when I am weak, then I am strong.
But God, who is rich in mercy, for His great love wherewith He loved us, even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) And hath raised us up together, and made us to sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: That in the ages to come He might shew the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. For by grace ye are saved through Christ Jesus. For by grace are ye saved through faith; and not of yourselves; it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were afar off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.

The watchman of Ephraim was with my God: but the prophet is a snare of a fowler in all his ways, and hated in the house of God. Also I set watchmen over you, saying, Hearken to the sound of the trumpet. For there shall be a day, that the watchman upon the Mount Ephraim shall cry. Arise and let us go up to Zion unto the Lord our God. I have made you a watchman unto the house of Israel: therefore hear the word at my mouth, and warn them from me. When I say unto the wicked, O wicked man thou shalt surely die; if thou dost not speak to warn the wicked from his way, that wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thine hand. Nevertheless, if thou warn the wicked of his way to turn from it; if he do not turn from his way, he shall die in his iniquity; but thou hast delivered thy soul. I have set watchmen upon the walls, O Jerusalem, which shall never hold her peace day nor night: ye that make mention of the Lord, KEEP NOT SILENCE. How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of them that bringeth good tidings, that published peace, that brings tidings of good, that published salvation; that say unto Zion, thy God, reigns! The watchman shall lift up the voice; with the voice together shall sing: for they shall see eye to eye, when the Lord shall again bring Zion. How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher? And how shall they preach, except they be sent? As it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things! But hath in due times manifested His word though preaching, which is committed unto me according to the commandments of God our Savior. Behold upon the mountains the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publish peace! O Judah, keep thy solemn feasts, perform thy vows: for the wicked shall no more pass through thee; he is utterly cut off. Behold, I have refined thee, but not with silver; I have chosen thee in the furnace of affliction. I have set thee for a tower and a fortress among thy people, that thou may know and try their way. They are all griefious revolters, walking with slanders: They are brass and iron; they are corrupters. The bellows are burned, the lead is consumed of the fire; the founder melted not in vain: for the wicked are not plucked away. Reprobated silver shall men call them, because the Lord has rejected them.

GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME...
If your Bible isn't dripping the blood of Christ, it is useless!!


Isaiah 40:3-11; Proverbs 12:11

Make smooth in the desert a highway for our God! Preach it as all of you travel on the highways and the byways and threw the desert. Every material thing passes away--but the Word of God stands forever!! Your jobs, homes, cars, will pass away--but God's Word stands foreverlasting!!! Preach it my children! Till the land my children--plant, sow, harvest! Plant my Word everywhere, sow my Word everywhere. I will show you all a harvest none of you can even imagine.

Proverbs 8:12-17

Hate evil, hate sin, hate everything which exalts itself above Me. Power is Mine! Council is Mine! Seek Me in all matters, and I not shall only be found--I will give you wisdom, understanding, and revelation. By Me alone each of you will stand, by Me alone, each of you shall prosper in all you do.

Proverbs 16:20

To give attention simply means to yield to and do. So by studying and doing as the Word says, each of you shall find good and be blessed. Stop complaining and get on with the work at hand; look unto Me, look to My Word and I will give unto you understanding, knowledge, and most of all peace. Now, is your Bible dripping the blood of Christ? Are you using My Word to bring change in your life? For if you're not applying My Word in your life, how can you expect others to be helped in the same way, the Bible becomes useless. For if you are overcoming with the Word of God, your Bible is dripping with the blood of Christ.

God Is Good All The Time!
TIME TO DIVORCE HELL

THE SEASON HAS RETURNED

There is nothing new under the heaven. Again there is nothing new under the heaven. To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven.: We are living in a time of season when we truly are in that "sliver of time" before Jesus calls the church home.

The words nothing new under the heaven were given unto Solomon, the son of King David. So I give unto all who hear or read these words, this: Woe! unto all the peoples of this earth who live during this season before Jesus call the church home. The time is now to return to return to the Living God, your creator! Forsake sin, forsake all evil, forsake all things which exaults itself against Jesus, agaisnt the Word of God, against the Holy Spirit, and against Father God! The word forsake means to turn your back on and leave behind. Each person must turn from and leave behind the sin which has put them into bondage and has seperated them from the blessings, the protection, the abundant life which is reserved for those who follow after and obey the commandments of God. In this season we must do this:
(Proverbs 3:5-6) Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths.

The season has returned for each of us to take hold, a firm hold of the truth, and forsake the lies of satan which have turned us away from not only the mighty presence of our LORD in our lives, but from His blessings. Sin, it is sin which has put Jesus' chuch into the bondage of sickness, the bondage of debt (both spiritually and carnally), it is sin which has caused the breakdown of families, the breakdown of our youth, SIN! This is the season to return to Jesus! The Word of God! Jesus is the answer to all problems! (Proverbs 3:25-26) Be not afraid of sudden fear, neither of the desolation of the wicked, when it cometh. For the LORD shall be thy confidence, and shall kep thy foot from being taken.

In this season of time of life of eternity, how do we break from sin, which has lead to the breakdown of the blessings which our Lord has promised if we do according to His commandments which are found in the Bible? First we must realize sin leads to one thing, death. Death simply means: separation from God; of course there is physical death which is the separation of the spirit and soul from the body. In the case of the born-again Christian sin blocks and stops the blessings from God which will allow each of us to lead an abundant lifestyle. God's plan differs from the world's plan. This plan of the world is controlled by the god of the world-satan. Satan's plan is to not only blind the minds of people, but prevent people from having true peace, which is only available from Jesus the Christ. One living by the world system, remember controlled by satan himself!! can be "rich", own property, automobiles, houses, and have a seemily endless supply of money. But God's Word proclaims this: "For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?" (Mark 8:36) We see here for all that is gained in the world does nothing in preventing us from burning in the fires of hell/lake of fire! All the world system has to offer is eternal separation from God! No real peace, and a go who demands blood. The True Living God is the source of enternal life with Him, peace beyond our knowledge ( not only in the "ever-after" but the here and now!)
and a giver of blood not a demander!

The choice is your own. Do we want a more abundant life or a dead-end life which satan offers; are you willing to repent, turn away from your wrong doings; open the Bible and get into the plan God offers and then begin to live the more abundant life which can only be received by following God's guidelines found in His Word?
(Proverbs 3:35) The wise shall inherit glory: but shame shall be the promotion of fools.

This is the time to return to Jesus. This is the season to stop sinning against God, the time is now to turn away and leave behind satan's lies! The trumpet is set to blow! Jesus is about to call His church home! Will you go home or are you dead set in gaining the things the world and spenting the rest of eternity separated from God? Now! I say now! Turn your eyes to Jesus! Take your eyes off the things of this world! Fix your gaze unto Jesus! Don't allow your spirit/soul to live in hell and then the lake of fire, forever and ever.This is no area to be gambling in! Life and death are what's at stake. I don't mean death in the carnal sense, I mean living with God or living with satan forever and ever, this is a long time, and when the reading of the Lamb's book of life takes place, if your name is not found therein, you are sentenced to the lake of fire, and you find no fire escape there to return you unto Jesus to be saved, the door leading to salvation at that time has been shut and locked tight! Choose Jesus now! Peace and joy shall abound more and more; by choosing satan you're choosing pain heaped on agony heaped on suffering forever and ever! (Proverbs 3:1-2) My son (if your female: My daughter) forget not My law; but let thine heart (spirit) keep My commandments: For length of days, and long life, and peace, shall they be added to thee.

The choice is yours. The age we live in is about to end. The season is changing, all who are born-again are about to be taken out of this world and taken to heaven; those who are refusing the salvation of Jesus are about to go through a season of tribulation and then 1,000 years in hell before being judged and sentenced to punishment in the lake of fire forever and ever, this is their reward, but the way of escape is here, He is waited to be accepted, Jesus is His name, He is the way of escape from everlasting punishment. Accept Him, make Him the Lord of your life, I assure you, you will not regret it.

Choose the salvation offered by Jesus. Forsake, completely refuse, and walk away from the offer of everlasting punishment and never ending pain and suffering offered by satan. (Romans 10:8-10) Amplified Bible: But what does it say? The Word (God's message in Christ) is near you, on your lips, and your heart (spirit); that is, the Word (the meassage, the basiss and object) of faith which we preach, Because if you acknowledge and confess with your lips that Jesus is Lord in your heart (spirit) believe (adhere to, trust in, and rely on the truth) that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart (spirit) a person believes (adheres to, trusts in, and relies on Christ) and so is justified (declared righteous, acceptable to God) and with the mouth he confesses (declares openly and speaks out freely his faith) and confirms (his) salvation.

The GREAT End-Times Coverup

Folks, we are living in a moment of eternity when a “great” cover-up is taking place in our lives. Not only have many apostles/prophets/evangelists/pastors and teachers are part of this and causing the Church to walk in defeat, sickness and on the highway of destruction, but, the secular news is hiding the events taking place around the world that is shaping the return of Jesus. The time of the blowing of the trumpet is sooo close that we must be in ready, be ready to meet Jesus in the clouds!! He is about to take us home!!! And this present world of heartache, pain and suffering will be exchanged for streets of gold and our bodies will be transformed, transformed to glorious bodies that will no longer feel the pains, feel the many years of abuse we have exposed them too. Somebody shout!! Somebody shout somebody!!!
The secular news is not reporting the wide-spread earth-quakes, the secular news is not reporting the wide spread violence that is taking place both here in the US and Mexico, let alone South America, Africa, India, and is only reporting a minute amount from the Middle East. The rebel type warfare taking place in the Holiest of Holiest city of Jerusalem!! Is not uttered in secular news. I will only mention how Jesus is no longer the reason for the season He is named for: Christmas. The name of our Christ taken from the most holy season in the life of a Christian.
I will say this boldly and make no apologies for saying it: The Church today, the Body of Christ today is wimpish and mostly of no effect. It is time for the Body of Christ to rise up and walk in the victory of boldness that we posses as Born-Again Spirit-filled Children of God, speaking the Word of God out aloud over the trials that our enemy throws at each of us, each and every day, trying to take our “trust” in the Word of God away from us, trying to separate us from that “perfect” relationship with our Wonderful LORD.
Hosea 4:6 Tells us this: My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children. This knowledge includes “watching the times”,
Take a look at what is going on all around the world. Be prepared-Be prepared, for His return is as a thief in the night. 1st Thessalonians 5:1-4 But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you. For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness. Praise God, Praise God and Glory to the Lamb, THE God Most-High!!
Have we become so dense, dense to the Word of God? 1st Timony 4:1-2 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; Departing from what faith? The faith in God, His Word, His risen Son, His Holy Spirit, His love!! Giving heed to what seducing spirits? Anything that is contrary to God’s precious Word, preaching and teaching opposite of sound doctrine, which is straight out of the BIBLE!!!
We must look to 1nd Chronicles 12:32 And of the children of Issachar, [which were men] that had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do; the heads of them [were] two hundred; and all their brethren [were] at their commandment. The men of Issachar had understanding of the times, we today need this understanding to be productive, powerful faith-filled Christian walking in the Glorious Light of our Victorious Jesus the Christ. I encourage each of you to open your Bibles and look at both secular news and Christian news a get the understanding of what is going on and don’t be left behind when the trumpet blows!! You will be enlightened in your understanding of the season of time we are living in and realize this present moment in eternity is about to give way to the eternity of that sweet by and by…..Praise God!!!

SPIRIT MAN/NATURAL MAN

Trust in the LORD with ALL THINE heart(spirit); and lean NOT unto thine own understanding. {Proverbs 3:5} But the natural man receiveth NOT the things of the Spirit of GOD: for they are foolishness unto him; Neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. {1st Corinthians 2:14} But WITHOUT faith it is impossbile to please Him(God); For he that cometh to God MUST believe that He IS, and that HE is a REWARDER of them that DILGENTLY seek HIM. {Hebrews 11:6}.

GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME...
DIRECTIVES GIVEN TO US BY JESUS
AS HIS DISCIPLES

Matthew 28:19-20 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, [even] unto the end of the world. Amen.

Mark 16:15-18 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

Luke 24:46-49 And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day: And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem. And ye are witnesses of these things. And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.

John 14:12-14 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater [works] than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do [it].

NOVEMBER 22nd 2000

This is the Word the Lord gave me on November 22nd 2000. Below is a Word our Lord gave me on February 9, 2008 while refreshing myself on the Word from 2000.

NOVEMBER 22nd 2000

And the king said unto the woman, go to thine house, and I will give thee charge concerning the king, my lord, o king, the iniquity be on me, and on my father's house: and the king and his throne be guiltless. And the king said, whosoever saith ought unto thee, bring him to me, and he shall not touch thee anymore.

For the Lord loveth judgement, and forsaketh not His saints; they preserved for ever: but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off. The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell therein for ever. The mouth of the righteous speaketh wisdom, and his tongue talketh of judgement. The law of his God is in his heart (spirit); none of his steps shall slide. The wicked watcheth the righteous, and seeketh to slay him. The Lord will not him in his hand, nor condemn him when he is judged. Wait in the Lord, and keep His way, and He shall exault thee to inherit the land: when the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see it.

Knowest thou this of old, since man was placed upon earth, that the triumphanting of the wicked is short, and the joy of the hypocrite but for a moment? Though his excellency, mount up to the heavens, and his head unto the clouds; yet he shall perish for ever like his own dung: they which have seen him shall say, where is he? He shall fly away as a dream, and shall not be found: yea, he shall be chased away as a vision of the night. The eye also which saw him shall see no more: neither shall his place any more behold him.

Behold, the hour cometh, yeah, is now come, that ye shall be scattered, every man to his own, and shall leave me alone, and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me. These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

2nd Samuel 14:8-10; Psalm 37:28-34; Job 37:4-9; John 16:32-33

GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME....


2nd Samuel 14:8-10 And the king said unto the woman, Go to thine house, and I will give charge concerning thee. And the woman of Tekoah said unto the king, My lord, O king, the iniquity [be] on me, and on my father's house: and the king and his throne [be] guiltless. And the king said, Whosoever saith [ought] unto thee, bring him to me, and he shall not touch thee any more.

Psalm 37:28-34 For the LORD loveth judgment, and forsaketh not his saints; they are preserved for ever: but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off. The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell therein for ever. The mouth of the righteous speaketh wisdom, and his tongue talketh of judgment. The law of his God [is] in his heart; none of his steps shall slide. The wicked watcheth the righteous, and seeketh to slay him. The LORD will not leave him in his hand, nor condemn him when he is judged. Wait on the LORD, and keep his way, and he shall exalt thee to inherit the land: when the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see [it].

Job 37:4-9 After it a voice roareth: he thundereth with the voice of his excellency; and he will not stay them when his voice is heard. God thundereth marvellously with his voice; great things doeth he, which we cannot comprehend. For he saith to the snow, Be thou [on] the earth; likewise to the small rain, and to the great rain of his strength. He sealeth up the hand of every man; that all men may know his work. Then the beasts go into dens, and remain in their places. Out of the south cometh the whirlwind: and cold out of the north.

John 16:32-33 Behold, the hour cometh, yea, is now come, that ye shall be scattered, every man to his own, and shall leave me alone: and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me. These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

Nothing shall separate My love, My compassion, My Holy Spirit, NOR Myself from you. I have sealed you, NOTHING shall separate us for we are one. For I live in you and you in Me. My Church is one body, therefore, all who are true shall bind together and strengthen each other. If My people shall be a strength one to another then the time has come for one to lift up and encourage one another. I see all, and am saddened. My people are torn apart, ripped apart, and are treated as second class citizens, My children are the HEAD and not the tail, they are KINGS and QUEENS, MY joint-heirs. Even My generals need encouragement/support. But, many in the Church are considered much-much less than I can stand!! Who will liftup and support these saints? You think times are tough for you? Open your eyes and truly look at your neighbors!! Be not be judged with the goats, nor the uncompassionate; STOP looking the other way at those in need!! I consider one to be wicked who looks away from the needy!!

No Offense

"He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is none
occasion of stumbling in him."

-- (1 John 2:10)

Whenever you find yourself stumbling into failure or sin, check your
love life. Sit down with the Lord and ask Him to show you if you're in
strife with anyone or if you've taken offense. If you have, the devil
can come in and trip you up.

As a preacher, I've seen that happen countless times. I'll be preaching
about something and some believer will get upset with me about it. He'll
decide I'm wrong and go off in a huff--and first thing you know, he's in
trouble.

Mark 4:17 tells us the devil uses those kinds of offenses to steal the
Word from our hearts. He causes us to get crosswise with each other.
Then he's able to pull the plug right out of us and drain the Word like
water from a bucket.

Don't ever let that happen to you. If you hear a preacher or another
believer saying something that rubs you the wrong way and you catch
yourself getting offended say, "Oh no you don't. You're not stealing the
Word out of me, you lying devil." Then get right down on your knees and
repent before God.

Search the Word and listen to the Spirit within you and find out what
you should do. If you still feel what that person said to you was wrong,
pray for him.

Remember, taking offense never comes from God. He says we're to be
rooted and grounded in love. So reject those feelings of offense. Give
yourself to that person in love and in prayer. You'll be able to walk
right on through that situation without ever stumbling at all.

1st John 2:1-11 My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous: And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for [the sins of] the whole world. And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments. He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him. He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked. Brethren, I write no new commandment unto you, but an old commandment which ye had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which ye have heard from the beginning. Again, a new commandment I write unto you, which thing is true in him and in you: because the darkness is past, and the true light now shineth. He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness even until now. He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is none occasion of stumbling in him. But he that hateth his brother is in darkness, and walketh in darkness, and knoweth not whither he goeth, because that darkness hath blinded his eyes.

PSALM 112
THE EMPOWERED STATE OF GOD'S CHOSEN PEOPLE

Praise the Lord! Blessed (empowered) is the man who fears the Lord. Who delights greatly in His commandments. His decendents will be mighty on earth; the generation of the upright will be blessed (empowered).

Wealth and riches will be in His house. And His righteousness endures forever. Unto the upright there arises light in the darkness; He is gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous.

A good man deals graciously and lends; He will guide his affairs with decretion. Surely he will never be shaken; The righteous will be in everlasting rememberance. He will not be afraid of evil tidings; his heart (spirit) is steadfast, trusting in the LORD.

His heart (spirit) is established; he will not be afraid, wntil he sees his desire upon his enemies. He has dispersed abroad, he has given to the poor; his righteousness endure forever; his horn (strength) will be exalted with honor.

The wicked will see it and be grieved; he will gnash his teeth and melt away; the desire of the wicked shall perish.

MY STUDY PRAYER

PSALM 119:17-19
DEAL BOUNTIFULLY WITH THY SERVANT, THAT I MIGHT LIVE AND KEEP THY WORD. OPEN THOU MINE EYES, THAT I MAY BEHOLD WONDEROUS THINGS OUT OF THY LAW.

THIS IS MY BIBLE. I AM WHAT IT SAYS I AM. I CAN DO WHAT IT SAYS I CAN DO. I HAVE WHAT IT SAYS I HAVE. TODAY I WILL BE TAUGHT THE WORD OF GOD. I BOLDLY CONFESS: MY MIND IS ALERT, MY SPIRIT IS RECEPTIVE. I WILL NEVER BE THE SAME. I AM ABOUT TO RECEIVE THE INCORRUPTABLE, INDISTRUCTABLE, EVER LIVING SEED OF THE WORD OF GOD. I WILL NEVER BE THE SAME, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER AGAIN, IN THE NAME OF JESUS...

ST JOHN 16:13-15
HOWBEIT WHEN HE, THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH IS COME. HE WILL GUIDE ME INTO ALL TRUTH: FOR HE SHALL NOT SPEAK OF HIMSELF; BUT WHATSOEVER HE SHALL HEAR, THAT SHALL HE SPEAK: AND HE WILL SHOW ME THINGS TO COME. HE SHALL GLORIFY JESUS: FOR HE SHALL RECEIVE OF JESUS, AND SHALL SHOW IT UNTO ME. ALL THINGS THAT THE FATHER HAS, ARE JESUS'S: THEREFORE SAID JESUS, THAT HE, THE HOLY SPIRIT SHALL TAKE OF JESUS'S, AND SHALL SHOW IT UNTO ME. IN THE NAME OF JESUS, AMEN AMEN AND AMEN....

TIME TO TAKE A CLOSE LOOK AT OURSELVES



Many things are being taught and said today that does nothing but opens the door(s) for satan to move heavily and mightily in the lives of unsuspecting Christians. It is very scary that this goes on Christian tv being thrust upon the youth! Let’s face the cold hard truth: Too many well meaning preacher/teachers/bishops/evangelists/ect. Are making the path easy for satan and his demons to invade the lives of God’s children.

Lets look at what we should be doing. 1) Keep our eyes on Jesus ONLY. How do we do this? Open your Bible. Get into the Word of God and study the Word. Apply that Word into your life. Pray. Take a close look at what you are praying for. Does it line up with the will God has for your life? (1st John 5:14-15). Don’t allow bitterness to come flooding into your life when prayers don’t seem to be answered. Make both your Bible study and your prayer time a priority in your daily life. Think about the Word constantly and pray much throughout the day, by doing so you will leave no room for satan and his wiles to run around in your mind hindering your thoughts. By keeping your “eyes” on Jesus, your thoughts will be off the cares of this present world which satan is walk to and fro to devour whom he may. 2) Submit to God. James 4:1-12 sums it up. Submit yourself to God, then resist satan, then he will flee from you. How do we submit to God? Plainly, put our own desires aside and put all the things of God first in your life. Put aside what you feel is important to you, and ask Jesus to place a new desire in your life, just say Jesus place within me your desire, your will/plan into my life and help me to put my own desires aside to accomplish Your will. This is the beginning: Keeping your “eyes” on Jesus: studying the Word, prayer, and submitting yourself to God.

Now the scary part: First off I’ve heard preaching and teaching about spiritual warfare that makes no sense. It does nothing but open the door for the demonic. I’ve heard names of demons being called out that don’t exist, I’ve research and found no basis for them, nor any record for them, and this being done to the youth. I will not name them, for there is no reason to name demons. Spiritual warfare in the heavy form needs to be left to individuals anointed for this type of service. We need to lift up the name of Jesus. Praise and worship, and pray to the Father in the name of Jesus for all needs. Praise and worship is the key to stopping the demonic. Don’t get me wrong, there is a need for the spiritual warfare ministry, but for the average Christian their knowledge and training is limited, and that will cause more problems than freedom. I believe on must stay positive, staying positive is clinging to the things of God and Jesus. Opening that Bible and growing in the Word, prayer, and praising Jesus continually. Too many of us are witnessing to all the problems in our lives and not witness to what Jesus has done for us. Keep praising Jesus continually!!!! Keep looking to Jesus and walk by faith not sight, satan was defeated 2,000yrs ago by Jesus and he passed that victory on to us!!!!!

GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME….
ARMOUR OF GOD EVERY CHRISTIAN SHOULD HAVE


Romans 13:12 The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light.
Romans 13:13 Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying.
Romans 13:14 But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to [fulfil] the lusts [thereof].

Ephesians 6:10-18 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high [places]. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;

THE BLESSING MAKER

What a wonderful point in eternity to be living in!! Soon and very soon our Great and Mighty Jesus will be waiting in the clouds to receive us home!! The moment draws nigh. For currently worldly events are showing us that the moment that the trumpet is TO BE is possibly so near we can actually taste it!! Are you awake and waiting and watching attentively? Or are you as the sluggard, thinking and proclaiming, “The apostles thought He’d return in their lifetime?” Which group are you part of?
Well, I tell you this, Jesus is not a liar, but He is a blessing maker. If you are one who has fallen in the group who believes Jesus’ return is not in your lifetime I encourage you to look at the events taking place in the Middle East and in Jerusalem and in Russia and China and events including that of weather worldwide, then open your Bible and study end-time events that will/are taking place this present time in this season of eternity.
John 14:1-3 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house are many mansions: if [it were] not [so], I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, [there] ye may be also. 1st Corinthians 15:51-52 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. 1st Thessalonians 4:16-18 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive [and] remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
Matthew 24:4-8,11-13 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all [these things] must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. All these [are] the beginning of sorrows. And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
Are we seeing the above in greater and greater magnitude? Earthquakes in much greater number, twenty-four during the last week of January 2008 alone!! Here in the US, one under Lake Erie!! It is drawing near, the return of our Great Jesus!! Wake UP People, there are many to be added to the Kingdom of God, Wake UP people, many need the Miracle working power of the Word of God in their lives!! Many Christians are in bondage, set them free with the Word of God!! We are victorious only if we have the Champion Jesus working in our lives by the Holy Spirit!! Fulfill Matthew 24:14 in your life today: And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come. Have you spoke the Word of God in your life, another’s life? Preach (speak-it) into your life, speak-it into another’s life for it will set you and them free!! John 8:32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. The Word, the Word, the Word!!!! It is truth and will free you from all bondage. Jesus is the Word!! John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. Jesus is not a liar!! He is the Blessing Maker, we are Blessed (empowered to prosper by Jesus the Christ), apply the Word(to your life) it will bless you, Jesus is not a liar!!!

GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME…
