Have You Heard This Before?

If we do not step up to do what God is telling us, He will get someone else to do it……. I have heard this and may be even said it or even wrote about it BUT,…….  there is Jonah…. So this bit of a stronghold is thrown out with last week’s garbage too!

You are so important to our God and King…. Do not let anyone or anything tell you differently…. As you are aware of how valuable you are to God, then you are just as important to evil….. Be innocent as a dove and wise as a serpent…..and know the perfect will of God.

The Book of Jonah starts on a stormy night. We see a ship bopping up and down like a little cork on the seas. There in the ship was God’s man, a prophet, called Jonah…. Jonah was nestled asleep in his bunker in the bottom of the ship as this poor ship rocked to and fro in the midst of the rising seas.

The sailors were slightly freaked out because of this system that rose up……The men decided to cast lots to find out who brought this storm on their heads…… They found  the cause by the lot  which pointed toward the guy snoring down in the bottom of the ship……

They urgently awakened the man……. As he rubbed the sleep from his eyes, he acknowledged that he was the cause.

HE KNEW!!!  He  knew he was on wrong  side of God in not heeding His instructions.   He looked at the crew and told them to throw him off the ship and their trouble would end……

Guess what?…… They did.  It was the high dive for the sleeping Jonah.

Guess what? The storm stopped immediately.

Jonah was correct….. The Lord stirred up the storm to get Jonah’s attention…..

Therefore He says, Awake, you who sleep, arise from the dead and Christ will give you light.

See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil.

Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is.

And do not be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation; but be filled with the Spirit,

speaking psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord,

giving thanks always for all things to God the Father in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, submitting to one another in the fear of the Lord, ( Ephesians 5:14-21).

Arise, shine; for your light has come! And the glory of the Lord is risen upon you.

For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and deep darkness shall cover the people; but the Lord will arise over you, and His glory will be seen upon you.

The gentiles shall come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising, ( Isaiah 60:1-3).

 

We as believers know the Lord does rule over the sons of men on this earth.  God had chosen  from before the beginning of time to send Jonah to a place to bring the Light of God. Jonah was sent to a nation whose ways were going farther away from God.

Jonah was chosen to bring the news of the Lord’s intentions….. They had forty days to repent or destruction was coming on the land…..

Jonah was to deliver this message…… He was  chosen and special in the Lord’s eyes to do this hard task……from the beginning of the foundation of the world.

Problem arose: Jonah did not want to bring the message to these people because they had caused trouble to his nation Israel.

So he took a ride on a ship thinking he could hide from God….. Really? Hide from God?

He sees all and knows all…….The God whose Spirit is represented to us by a thousands of eyes on a wheel. This is a metaphor saying our God is all knowing and all seeing…. There is nothing hidden from His sight, even darkness is light to Him……as Psalm 139 states.

As written in Titus 1:15, To the pure all things are pure, but to those who are defiled and unbelieving nothing is pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled. They profess to know God, but in works deny Him, being abominable, disobedient, and disqualified for every good work.

And then in Psalm 18:24-25,With the merciful You will show Yourself merciful; With a blameless man You will show Yourself blameless; With the pure You will show Yourself pure; and with the devious You will show Yourself shrewd.

For You will save the humble people, but will bring down haughty looks.

So back to our story of God’s great love towards men.

Then a huge fish, whale, whatever, swallowed up Jonah.  While Jonah was existing as fish bait in this weird and scary place, Jonah remembered the mercy of God…..One of the reasons Jonah did not obey the instructions of the Lord was due to  his knowledge of  the Lord’s abundance of mercy….. Jonah knew of His great mercy and love for all people….He knew if the people repented He would stop the destruction planned.

Son Jonah took God’s mercy and repented.

So the fish spit Jonah out….  Jonah headed towards the nation and proclaimed God’s intention.

The whole nation repented and fasted from the king to the animals!!

God restored the nation to Him…. because of the obedience of one man to speak out the purpose of God…. So all men would come to know and fear the Lord God of hosts.

This one man was special to God as well as the peoples in this particular nation.

My message is there is a particular purpose you are called to by the Uncreated One.

Listen to Him and obey.

He gives us all the grace we need for living a life of godliness.  He gives us His Spirit to go where He calls us and pray what He wants to be.

But know as written in 2 Tim 3:12, Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution……

The battle  is to remain in the spiritual place He has provided us while we are completing His purpose. He has given us Christ Jesus to live and breath and have our being in and through….

This place is a secret. This place in Christ Jesus, we are hidden,  and we are provided with all the grace we need. We are given the seal and guarantee of His Spirit within us as our glory.  We also receive the comfort of God that is beyond any love we have seen and known yet…..but we are knowing Him more and His blessing over us.

Remember Saul became Paul….. He became small so God grew mightily in Him and through Him….

There is so much more to know and experience in  living in  and by the love of God found in Christ Jesus….

May we dive in and then bask in His greatness.

 

There are many who want to stir the waves up to awaken us away from His place for us.   A place of joy, peace, contentment and fullness.

In Him, all things are a new creation….. A new nation of His redeemed ones from all over the world are called to partake for His purpose, rest in His place.

Each one has a purpose in His plan…..

It is very important to hear and obey God for ourselves.

Do not be concerned, Holy Spirit does not get offended if we ask for confirmation….

He will gladly answer by bringing a dream, scripture or someone just speaking out what the Lord shows them about us…..

After all, the Jesus Christ is the Spirit of prophecy.

When all  is said and done as we meet the Lord and stand before Him……

Let us run boldly into His smiling arms that we did what He asked and by His Spirit we were strengthened to accomplish His task……

He remembers it all  because He received the glory of His greatness and love from His beloved creation.

He has placed us in heavenly places for we are where He is now!

Just think, He is in our midst here and we are there in heavenly places with Him…

Nothing is impossible with God and those who believe.

May this truth become our reality and be settled in this because we have the mind of Christ.

So do not be shocked when all hell breaks loose against  your focus from His place to the world. Remain heavenly minded and not earthly bound.

This is the spiritual battle that men and women go through if they are called His…..

Keep your eyes on the Lord and let His mind be in you…..

Servants are told what to do but sons and daughters have the mind of Christ.

Get rid of the religion- that I am not that important, He will send someone else……

You are His beloved! You are important to His plan and purposes to be accomplished in the earth. And only you are designed for this special task by the Master Craftsman. You are here for such a time as this…..

Walk where He sends you and be where He has called you in Him and by Him, you will be strengthened in His will.

God wants us to be with Him….. and obey His Words to us.

He will even send a storm or a butterfly to capture us into His purpose….

Another religious block is removed as we say- I have been given the mind of Christ for I am His delight as a son or a daughter.

Another religious block is removed as let’s say you are in a storm of persecution, and religion says you brought that on yourself. We can not totally ignore the scripture  of 2 Timothy as written above.  Holy Spirit is greater in us than the world…… We must leave our focus on sin and pursue His righteousness in us.  The focus of many houses of worship is going against His current purpose of His plan and preparation for what is ahead.

Holy Spirit knows how to clean fish way better than man….. See the new creation in you and me and then all things will be as I AM has called us to be.

Do not accept the shame and guilt that evil wants to throw on you as he tries to mislead you from the beautiful place that Christ has placed you in Him……

Reproach for His name sake is a given…..

Stop the lies of the enemy.  Persecution is a given as a Christ bearer.

You are an important, blessed, and incredibly awesome for Christ is in you.

This is your glory and this is my glory, we get to share His.

Rejoice and live loud and shake off the shroud  of the enemy’s voice which is speaking against His beloved, you.

The battle is knowing in Him that who we are is what He says we are.

The stand,  we take while we are kneeling,…..

We are staying where He has called us to be in His presence.

We delight in Him. We ignore the plague of fear and hate and greed…..

We are not stirred or enticed to join the ones who run straight off the cliff with the crowd of culture……

Beloved, please know the propaganda that is being displayed is not real.

This is how  nations who listened and honored God were turned into communistic regimes and  controlled their countrymen by fear. Do not bow or believe.

Know immediately by  His peace disrupted in our hearts….. As written in Colossians in 3:15 -16, And let the peace of God rule in our hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful.

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.

And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of your inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ.

But he who does wrong will be repaid for what he has done, and there is no partiality,                    

( Colossians 3:23-25).

Keep your ears tuned to His Spirit, His Voice.  He will keep us and guard us from all lies….. Mostly, let us live to bring what is not seen or heard to be. So what is being spoken  to a stop by speaking and communing with the One who changes the hearts of men.  Let us bring the unfruitful works of darkness to light so they shall not prosper……

This is our place that we are called to in Him….. You are His voice here. You are His hand here. You are His Voice crying out in the wilderness. Make straight the paths of the Lord.   Keep strong in Him by allowing His strength to be ours.  Keep diligent in the faith as we have His faith of God placed by Christ in us. Let us speak with the courage and boldness of Holy Spirit’s fire within pouring forth to the nation.

God’s ways never change…… Listen and spend your time in Him and His word…..

Turn off the world…..

There is nothing that you need to know by turning on the world……

As He has spoken, He will tell us all things we need to know in 1 John.

There are no shut doors to the ones who call on the Beloved.

He makes a way for His beloved to hear and know and place their feet where He has made their path to be.

He protects us from all deceit and cunning schemes of darkness and greed.

We always grow stronger in God by walking new paths of the Lord’s way…

For everyone who partakes only of milk is unskilled in the word of righteousness, for he is a babe.

But solid food belongs to those who are of full age, that is, those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil, ( Hebrews 5:13-14).

Why did Holy Spirit, say in Hebrews 6:1, Therefore, leaving the discussion of the elementary principles of Christ, let us go on to perfection, not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God.

It is written in Colossians the fullness of God is found in Christ…… So this is the truth, right?

Now to be found in Christ having no righteousness of our own, would be living in the fullness of God in Christ. Right?…

Selah!

This is our home and place in God, beloved…..

Our perfection is not in ourselves. That is a given, right? Thank God for Jesus Christ and the cross and Holy Spirit and His resurrection.

Living in Christ with all our brothers and sisters coming to the knowledge of our inheritance in Christ is our prayer…… We grow in the knowledge of how Christ abides in us as our hope of glory……There the land is beyond what we can imagine or think, but is for us.

We must abide in Him and take all that He has died to give us.

We can be holy because He is holy….. We live and by Him and His strength.    We shall come into maturity, (perfection), by abiding in Christ as we are all being built into a holy temple by His Spirit……He abiding in us as we are abidiing in Him……. Is this the fullness God does desire for His Beloved Son and His bride?

Let us shoot this religious block also in the foot ! His beloved  is walking in and by the grace of the Spirit in God. We are resting on our Beloved’s righteousness and none of our own, for we know  in reality, we have none.  We live by and in His righteousness and have become the righteousness of God by Christ Jesus because we dwell and abide in Him.

So we are a new creation in Christ Jesus and by Christ Jesus.  The works we have not done or done are as filthy rags, but rest in the completed work of the cross that Christ Jesus accomplished.

So  we abide and rest in His love. We then can search to find all He died on that treacherous cross to give us in His word.  This life of God that raised Christ from the dead is ours beloved!

This unconquerable  life and unsearchable riches and wisdom of  God found in the resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ in which we have also risen into and by Him is ours. We partake with this Ancient of Days this day…..

Lord, we are so grateful and our hearts are so overflowing with the incredible knowledge we are comprehending about You and all You have planned for each of us.

Let’s not let the chaos of the world stop our search in knowing our great God and living in His neverending love for us…..

Let’s keep looking onto heaven and for all His good in the land of the living….. I see His goodness in you and you and you and you!

Remain as the blessed and the beloved in Him and let His strength in us be all for His glory.

That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to us the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him,

the eyes of our understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints,

and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power

which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places,

far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in the age which is to come.

And He put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be head over all things to the church,

which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all, ( Ephesians 3:17-23).

Does the creation ask the Creator if the creation may destroy those made in My image?  If you stand by and destroy My creation  and not stand for My truth; who will stand for you?

All  acts against others which were done and are currently done in deceit or as thought to be hidden in the dark are being exposed.  Evil and wicked men think what they are doing is hidden.  As they forsake their mercy for not turning away from their idols of perversion, greed and  hunger for displaced power……

O man, do you not know  the God of justice has hands on this earth to bring the Truth for all to see in My Light.

O man, do you not know His arms of justice  are not shortened?

O man, do you not know the One who makes the rain also made the lightning and thunderings.

Do you not know, o man,  He who made the dove has also made the eagle to soar the highest of heights?

Do you not know, o man, the One who has created the ear, can hear you?

Do you not know, O man, the One who created the eye, sees your all your doing?

Turn from your wicked ways and turn back to Me.

Your eyes are not to covet other’s wives, possessions. or gifts…….

This shall not be found in those that think they dwell in Me.

Turn your eyes in on your own habitation…  Be sure you are found in Me….and I AM to be found in you.

Covet My Spirit for then you shall speak also of  I AM….. Do not look on with eyes that are green.

Look to Me and then your heart shall see the great purpose you have in Me.

What do you see?    Do you see as I AM sees?

Do not forsake your mercy as I AM is calling you to repent and turn from your ways that are an abomination to My eyes.

Turn and forsake all unrighteousness and turn to I AM- be found in I AM.

Return to I AM, while grace is pouring forth as a fountain that never stops.

But, alas, My grace shall halt as My plan unfolds to all.

Time is now, to get the eyes that see and ears that hear Me.

Do not be deceived as there are many who have companionship in the pit…..

My plans for you are higher and greater.   Many are called to speak out for I AM, but My faithful are chosen.

Their declaration of Me has been heard through the time.

My precious ones who point to My place who inhabits beyond the sun?  Come to Me and know Me and be set free.

Do you not see the world is getting ready to roll away?

You can lift a fist to I AM……. Will this work be fruitful for you and I AM?

Turning away is not the way of the wise. Show I AM your  peace?

Know I AM as your peace. I AM has reconciled you to our Father. In Me, there is peace and hope of your days and nights to come…. Ask many of My beloved, why they have forsaken all to come and be with I AM.  Ask them….. They have found their home and joy in Me.  My grace has been great in their need. It is mighty in them and mightily working through them.

I AM shines brightly through the love of My own in Me.

See their light will never be put out. Their  voice will never be stopped for all of heaven hears their prayers and their praises and delight in I AM….

Hear the chorus of My beloved consuming the whole universe as they sing their new song of I AM, the One who came to earth so I AM may bring them to heaven again.

Be wise and seek Me while you have time.

Join the ones who have been marked by My love.

The seal over their lives is My everlasting blood.

My arm has pulled many out of the fires that burn, into My Spirit of unceasing flames of love.    Will you not join them and turn from your wicked ways….?

I AM sees you ?   Let I AM reveal to you My loving eyes. Turn back to Me for I AM where you were created.

Meet Me now before time runs and folds up her lines into My hands…… Do you know what tomorrow holds for you?….. I AM is there.

My beloved little ones,

Know how much I AM is strong in your midst. Lean on Me for all that I AM has called you to be. Do not fret and do not hesitate to bring Me into everything. Alas, I AM there already but I AM waits for your open door.  Trust in Me will grow greater as I AM reveals My known to your unknown.

Be still and rest in Me.  All things are in My hands and I AM knows what is the END from the BEGINNING for I AM….

The flight in Me brings all things clear and bright.  Though the clouds lay low above them you will flow.

Do not stop and do not question as to where you are for you have never been in this new territory, but I AM is there.

Do you know how one days enfolds into another?

Do you know when the mark of years is completed?

By My Spirit, you are changed from My glory to another glory.

Do you know the times of where I AM calls all into a higher calling than what was seen before….

Let all go and cling to Me and you will see all that shall be from Me.

 

Trust Me and know how I AM is in delight because of the cost you pay to hear My Voice and keep I AM in your sight.

I AM knows the eyes of your heart look to understand what is unseen but you will find all you need in Me.

Do not stop or hesitate, just call My name and enter in to what I AM has called  your inheritance.

Do not stand back in awe, but remember what I AM has spoken to you as this has been declared before  a line of time was –

I AM is before and here and there I AM is…..

Walk with Me and remember….

I AM is your past…… I AM is your now. Thank you for allowing I AM to reveal all who are in I AM shall be-

for as I AM you shall be.

 

SELAH !! SELAH!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Wonder Why He Is Called Ancient Of Days?

BECAUSE HE IS UNSTOPPABLE!!!

One of the many names used for our God is Ancient of Days. This name is so comforting and exciting  to me….. He is the same today as He was before and will be forevermore. For He encompasses the same as He was and is and will be  for all eternity. He is the Alpha and Omega and Beginning and End. He is First and the Last.  And we  are there in His midst! Watching this great God. Listening, yes,  listening for His ways which He in His mercy unfolds before men. Heaven does truly reign over the sons of men.  Do you hear a dove coo or an eagle cry or a lion roar?  Do you hear His voice as the thunder rolls?

There is Light spoken over every chaos that has ever happened to man… We do well in speaking  as our God has and still is —LIGHT BE… The unfruitful works are exposed from what men think is in hidden in darkness. Those who are hiding in darkness from hate of men will be freed and the intimidators and false accusers exposed and brought to His light…For He is the same yesterday and today and forevermore.

As written in Ecclesiastes 3:14-15: I know that whatever God does, it shall be forever. Nothing can be added to it, and nothing taken from it. God does it, that men should fear before Him. That which is has already been, and what is to be has already been; and God requires an account of what is past.

We prepared for His Spirit to increase in man’s heart these past months…. Do not lose hope… There is a tropical storm/depression called Cristobal. Do you know what that name means?  Come on, guess…. Cristobal means Christ-bearer… Hello, talk of signs in the sky!!! Nobody can stop our God…His love overcomes all of our obstacles.

The prophet Joel speaks: Chapter 2:27-32: Then you shall know that I AM in your midst of Israel; I am the Lord your God and there is no other. My people shall never be put to shame.

And it shall come to pass afterward that I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh; Your sons and daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions.

And also on My menservants and maidservants I will pour out My Spirit in those days. 

And I will show wonders in the heavens and in the earth; blood and fire and pillars of smoke.

The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the coming of the great and awesome day of the Lord.

And it shall come to pass that whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.

For in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there shall be deliverance as the Lord has said, and amongst the remnant whom the Lord calls.

Do not lose hope for He is our hope and has heard our prayers… Be ready for the refreshing to those who are seeking Him. To those who are seeking hate- change your outlook and look for the One who has never stopped in His purpose!  He loves with an unstoppable love…..EVERYONE!!! And He has set His heart on seeking after you!!!

Let us imagine what is the exceedingly greatness of His power  which is working through us.  Let us prepare. Let’s ask Him to show us all things…. Let us grasp the understanding and perceive the wisdom available to acquire His workings mightily in us.

There is so much of Him and so little of time to explore the great and weighty nature of God. Absorb and see how He is transforming us into His image.  I think and ponder and my gaze turns back to Him and then to the scriptures and then to Him…. He gets larger and brighter as my time in Him grows and lengthens.  My vision is King of glory has taken His rightful places in the center of all men’s hearts that He called from the foundation of the world.

His eyes are seeking  in the world in whom He can show Himself strong on their behalf…… This is the truth- it is written in 2 Chronicles…. Look it up and check Him out! So those who are seeking Him,…. guess what, He is seeking you!!! He is awesome!

I wonder if the three angels or men from heaven that met Abraham were our heavenly Father and Son and Holy Spirit.  I wonder and think WOW!

As Hosea 10:12 has written  many days ago, let’s take heed:  Sow for yourselves righteousness; reap in mercy; break up your fallow ground, for it is time to seek the Lord, till He comes and rains righteousness on you.

No one could have planned this rainstorm with some thunderings and lightnings to pour forth on our dry and thirsty land in Florida at this time but God Himself.  The name Cristobal was put in someone’s mind by God who names the storms for 2020.  The timing of this  Christ bearer storm is all His. Thank You Lord for Your hand always showing You are here with us.  You always answer our prayers and every tear you catch in Your bottle.  Praise belongs to You forever and ever.

Can we turn off the news and pray LIGHT BE IN ME and then LIGHT BE ALL AROUND ME in Jesus Christ’s name, please?

He has made a way for peace to reign for us because He reigns in us…. We must allow Him in and have preeminence as He is knocking on the door of our hearts.

The cross of Jesus Christ is the answer for everything wrong, crooked and full of pride in this land, in fact, every land.

He said, I am the voice crying in the wilderness; make straight the way of the Lord, as the prophet Isaiah said, ( John 1:23).

But if you have bitter envy and self seeking in your hearts, do not boast and lie against the truth. This wisdom does not descend from above, but is earthly, and sensual and demonic. 

For where envy and self seeking exist, confusion and every evil thing are there.

But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy.

Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace, ( James 3:14-18).

Jesus Christ is the Desire of all nations.

God is unstoppable and so is His pursuit for each one of us.

Hear His soft Voice calling to you.

Feel His gentle touch in the middle of the night awakening you to His neverending love.

Get up and be with the King of all kings for He has requested from eternity your time.

He is invading His kingdom into your heart!!!!

Get up and receive Him gladly.

Beloved, this is His prayer that He and you be One in the Father.

Get up…. You have been given an audience of One, the King of all kings.

Get up!!

The news media is not god and has overstepped it’s boundaries. See the comparison to the scripture of James to what you hear in the main media……

After listening to the news- is there peace? Is there hope?   What picture of your future do they paint?   Is there respect for all people?  What fruit of the tree are they offering you?

The Tree of Knowledge or the Tree of Life?  The tree of knowledge may not be the truth…… Knowledge of how to bake a cake with wrong ingredients will not bring forth a cake……

Our God is still speaking….. Tune in to Him and may peace reign.

Instead of speaking words…. Let us turn our gaze towards heaven and pray His words of truth and peace.  Light Be for He is in you and me.

Examine yourselves as to whether you are in the faith. Test yourselves. Do you not know yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you? Unless indeed you are disqualified, ( 2 Corinthians 13:5).

See the Prize He has called us upwards through all our lives.

Hear the Voice that quickens our heart through all our lives.

Behold the One who is brighter than the sun.

Behold this glory that dwells within  as He imparted Himself in us for the reigning and ruling to begin.

He hears the cry of our heart and answers quickly as we say the name that every knee bows.

Many lips whisper their Beloved’s name, Jesus.

This is the only name the angels obey and turn to beckon the hurting one and come their way.

Call His name and see in faith all which changes in us this day.

Nevertheless when one turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away. Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is there is liberty.

But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord, ( 2 Corinthians 3:16-18).

Therefore, since we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we do not lose heart.

But we have renounced the hidden things of shame, not walking in craftiness nor handling the word of God deceitfully, but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God.

But even if our Gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing,

whose minds the gods of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them. 

For we do not preach ourselves, but Jesus Christ the Lord, and ourselves your bondservants for Jesus’s sake.

For it is God who commanded light to shine out of darkness, who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

But we have this treasure in earthen vessels that the excellence of the power may be of God and not of us, ( 2 Corinthians 4:1-7).

Beloved. God is unstoppable……Trust Him.  Delight in Him.

He reveals all things to those who have their heart set on Him and His path for their life. Nothing is hidden. In fact, even in the dark, He gives us His light as written in Psalm 139.  Check out His Word. Learn how you were made in the dark and secret but He brought you into the light of day. Now He wants you to be His light of His Life.

We must believe what we do not see but know all things that are- will not be; and the things that are not -will be revealed and established by all His Truth and mercy.  This is our walk of faith that He delights we live by.  Trust Him and see all the goodness He has and is bringing forth.

Take a deep breath.

Let it out in trust of the Ancient of Days.

There is nothing new to Him that has happened under the sun.

He has an answer and directions for us if we hush and be still.

Listen as He still inhabits His throne.

We look to You, Oh, Ancient One.

We wait in silence.

He speaks as His Voice carries through out the earth past time and to forevermore…..

Know I AM that I AM and will be forever.

My King is enthroned on the praises of His people.

Lift up your heads, My beloved.

Allow My King to enter in.

Open all of your hearts to Him.

This is My plan from the Beginning

Enter into My courts by Him,

His suffering took the evil of men…

His blood cleansed you from your sin…

Now you are dead in Him and live by and in Him…..

This is Him who the angels glory in….

My Beloved Son.

Know your King and Lord,

Jesus Christ.

He is My Light to you.

Let Him in for His desire to shine His love

through you…..to the peoples.

Open up your heart so you may see.

Come to Me as He speaks to you earnestly.

Jesus Christ is the name that sets men free.

Come to Me and believe.

Liberty in peace shall you live your life in Me.

My Door is open to all who believe, but you must come to Me.

The two way street is here- My way is clear for you to arise in Me.

Clear the path for My redeeming balm to clear the past away.

Be Mine and look now and see all the plans I AM has made in you to be in Me.

Dream the dreams that are closed in your heart. I AM releases them right at the start.

See I AM walking in your midst as your eyes have shed the scales of unbelief.

Hear My voice telling you the secrets and delights of My heart……

For now this day your life is Mine and for all to see.

Know and understand what I AM has written is yours this day.

Truth is known and beckons all to come and hear for His mercy has made the way clear.

 

Sit at My feet for this is the place I AM has called you to be.

Personal note-

All lives matter even those who are fearfully and wonderfully made in secret by God Himself——in the womb of the chosen mother who is special in His eyes too.

All lives matter and are important even the unborn have the hand of their Creator on them.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Have We Asked Our King?……After All, He is King

Have we asked the Lord this day, what is His purpose as His presence increases in the hearts of the people? I believe in doing this, we  may then release our preconceived ideas and formulas and rituals…. My we empty ourselves on our wants and hopes and desires….

Let us hear His heart now.

I was invited to a prayer vigil this Saturday……Instructions were to bring up to God our personal sin and the nations’….. Haven’t we sort of done this before…?  Can we start to look up to Jesus Christ and open the eyes of our hearts to heaven and off of us.  Holy Spirit knows how to take care of our sin….. Can we let God be God and just love Him?  I believe Holy Spirit has clearer eyes and many of them for that matter! He is the One who has been commissioned to bring us into the conformity of the Son of God.

May we know His ways so we may help those to know what is coming on them in the days ahead. But may we keep our hands off the work of the Holy Spirit. And a big AND may we call things clean as He does!!

Then fulfill His purpose as written in Ephesians 3:9-11,and to make all see what is the fellowship of the mystery which from the beginning of the ages has been hidden in God who created all things through Jesus Christ: to the intent that now the manifold wisdom of God might be made known by the church to the principalities and powers in the heavenly places, according to the eternal purpose which He accomplished through Christ  Jesus our Lord.

Now here is our Creator- the Uncreated One…. – In Him the galaxies are being increased as I breath in and out. There is no limit to Him…. Why do we put limits on Him? I do not think the 120 in the upper room were sitting there  contemplating their sin and watching their belly button….. I mean studying themeselves…. We know ourselves…. I think they were in prayer for not knowing what God was going to bring ….or how to bring….. or Who was the Promise!

They were quiet long enough to drop all their agendas and desires….. They were in awe and astounded…… I may be wrong, but I think there was a huge sense of wonder in that room as the Holy Spirit was brooding over thier chaos bringing it into Light.

As Jesus was being received into heaven in Acts 1, His crew still were saying to Him…..Is this when the kingdom is being restored to Israel?…… I think they may have thought…. Uh, You are leaving? The kingdom is still under Roman rule…. Are You not forgetting something?  This is our hope, Lord, are You not going to do something?

He told them they would be baptized with Holy Spirit in days from now…… They were saying okay, but what about our agenda?????

Holy Spirit is fire in our hearts and eyes that burns away all that is not pure, so we may remain in love for and with our God. Read Acts, check out how the flame of God rested in the apostles. Then study how they were totally sold out for the cause of Christ- after the baptism of  the Father’s Promise….. There was no other purpose under heaven but magnify Jesus Christ in them and through them by the power and workings of Holy Spirit.

The same purpose that was for them is for us, beloved……

The apostles lost all their agendas and bowed to the King of kings and obeyed the Father’s purpose for them through the power and revelation given to them by Holy Spirit.

Are you ready for His Fire, Beloved?

I did not know there was a Holy Spirit to be given to me. I was set apart at the time for a season asking  Jesus Christ some questions. Sir,this life walking and following You is not cutting it….. HELP ME>>>>By the way, how come riding my horse is not the same anymore?

Then some one at a service asked me, do you have the Spirit of God, His Holy Spirit?…. I said,  I don’t think so…Then they asked me, what do you want us to pray over you?  I thought and said, what He wants, I want. I pointed to heaven.

They prayed in tongues over me, I did not know what that was either… But I trusted Him and I saw Him in their eyes. I was being loved in His presence and just received Him…..BOOM!

He gave me Psalm 45 regarding riding my horses.   I  totally understand  all hearts agendas as well as my own my agenda…. He told me I would ride on His majesty prosperously because of truth, humility, and righteousness; and His right hand shall teach me awesome things.

I still asked okay, cool, but what about riding?…….Well, my riding slowly was set aside for my unsatiable quest of seeking Him out. Holy Spirit was taking me for many rides, even flying.

My life changed. The scriptures opened up to Me. He was alive to me in the Bible…. I could understand. I could pray and I could hear Him clear as myself speaking.  He taught me and showed me how to hit home runs in prayer and to live to be an overcomer in all things through Him. The shedding of the worldly ways just dropped off me as I was smelling the life of His fragrance around me.

I could pray for the sick animals we had, They were healed.

God’s kingdom opened up to me. Most of all my heart sang in tune with His heart.  My hands tingled with His love. My lips spoke His language in secret.

One day my husband tripped on the last step and fell into one of our dogs’ dug out hole at the bottom of the steps. His ankle was not okay. We both prayed over his ankle using the name of Jesus Christ. He got up and walked away fine!  Praise God!

We were like kids as we followed our older Brother teaching us all things that are possible in Christ Jesus.

His Spirit in me totally turned my taste buds for only Him. He had given me so many riches in Christ Jesus that I could never go back…. Go back to where and what?  I learned how I was His beloved daughter and fully pleasing Him by faith  as I lived out in Him.

Maybe, I was naive, but being totally engulfed in God was better than any high I had ever had and better than any meal I had ever eaten. I wanted to know and learn from Him about Him. I had never experienced this love before and no one will ever drag me from His presence.

I now ride on His Spirit and He is the best ride I ever had.   He trains me and I do not have to train a horse anymore to get a good ride. Holy Spirit takes me flying and shows me things I can only believe because I trust in God alone.

The adventures of God should be another name for the Bible. He is so exciting and He is worth laying down all to gain Him.  There is a cost, anyone who follows the King will be persecuted. You can count on it. You are valuable to the King, you are important to the evil one.  But no worries, He strengthens us in the battle and we become His overcomers. We are lifted up above our enemies and He always sets a table before us in the presence of our enemies.

My journey in Christ Jesus is over thirty years old, but my walk In His Spirit is 23 years old.  Learning of My King and My heavenly Father has been the greatest life I could ever have wanted or asked for.

The days of Enoch are here and have been for any who desire to be in Him and lose all to gain Christ. I died to the world and live for His voice. I need to see how He sees things. I need to know how He wants things. The days of Elijah are here because the Spirit of Christ Jesus is here reconciling the world back to Himself..and Father God.

I did not know of the gifts of the Spirit of God.  But He did. I just lived my life in Him.  The life we now live is in Christ Jesus by faith and it is a supernatural life. This is how and to what He is restoring us—into Him again. It does not matter what gifts we live in Him by; it matters how we see as He sees and then believe to live on that truth.

Please come and join the King of all. Please allow His love to carry you where  your imagination never  could comprehend what is yours in Christ Jesus.

Twenty three years ago on Pentecost, His Spirit was poured into me. I really did not know what the word Pentecost meant. Had no clue, but He knew what He wanted in Me and for me so I would live for Him. I always think back in gratitude and joy over all the adventures. He has brought me into and through.

My prayer for His body, His beloved, is we learn to live for our King alone. All the other things will be added in the measure He sees fit for our journey. I have learned to live abased and how to abound because He has strengthened me to do all things in Christ.

Lived to die to the world and only to Him. My greatest joy is to see My King laughing and slapping his hands onto His legs in utter delight. My greatest unrest is to hear His sigh. His plans and His purposes are my desire and my quest.

My prayer is that we all take the next step into His plans which are higher and better than we can ever imagine or preconceive. We must  be ready to be taken to the next plateau with Him. We must be ready to prepare our breath and get rid of our luggage, yes, luggage. We got rid of our baggage years ago, but now we must let go of the good so He may give us His best and better.

Prepare our hearts to live before the audience of One, beloved.  Well, there is actually Three in One…… Get to know Him by His Spirit, beloved. Let go and let God be God. Trust Him.

THERE IS MUCH MORE FOR US IN HIS PLANS.

Are You ready?

Just show up…. He will take you from where you are to where He is. Trust Him. He is gentle. He is more than we can ever think or imagine. His love is greater than any other and His power is more force than we will ever realize…. Think of how the power of His Word is keeping this universe going right now from when it was created and  this Holy Spirit resides on the inside of us!!!

Come on, let’s jump into Him and start to fly!!!

 

Let us take a deep breath as He blows His Spirit in the face of our hearts.

Let us look deep into the eyes of fire that burns with such great depths of love for each of us.

Let us lean back into His shoulder as we rest on Him.

This journey is more that we can bear without His grace in which we share.

Let us live in the liberty that He has given to each.

Let us receive His Spirit humbly and hungrily.

Let us dive into His known and our unknown,

We calmy see we are engulfed by His everlasting mercy.

Look here, there is plenty for all.

His Spirit is not divided as men are.

But unity in Him is where we sit and breath so freely.

We learn to ride the waves in His righteousness and His truth.

We are as lilies shining brightly in humility,

As we crown our King with all honor and glory.

We gather at His feet as saints should be,

We hear Your voice , oh, our King of majesty.

We quiet our hearts and listen as He is speaking,

to all who bend their knee to this beautiful King.

Selah!

 

Children,

Gather around Me and hear My voice! Your voice is so sweet and My delight.  You whisper My name through the night to see if  I AM is here as you would reach to touch a loved one near you in your room. How this holds My heart to your voice. Know My everlasting love for you, My beloved. Know My breath that stills the chaos and brings Me into your sight.

Kings rule by Me. Justice is served by My Hands. Fire burns the lies away by My eyes. Love is captured for Me at My feet. Death is fleeing by My blood. The heavens and the earth are held by the word of My power. Everlasting life is given to all by My breath. Faith to those who believe receive from My Spirit. My heart lives as the righteousness to God in you.

I AM is your righteousness. I AM is your wisdom. I AM is your sanctification. I AM is your all. Gain I AM and gain all you need. You are known as My overcomer  of the world. Gain the world and you have gained death.

I AM is turning many sons into My glory for My glory and renown.

I AM is the Incorruptible Seed. The Seed of I AM is planted in all who are reborn in I AM. I AM all that I AM and more..

Come to Me and see I AM is strong to keep you all from corruption of the world…. Come and taste and then see how I AM mighty to save and keep all who  bow to My name from the evil one. These little ones who have come to Me, are kept in My hand.

Faith is My way to and in I AM.

Children, do you yet not see how special you are to Me?

Why do you judge others by your own eye?

Do you not see the plank blocking your knowledge?

Come and see if you are living in Me?

Come to Me and see all that can be when you come and see the hope found in Me.

Come and see all that there is in Me for you to eat and then believe.

Do not climb to the mountain for the heights.

But, by My Spirit, I  AM is there and you will be where I AM.

By My Spirit, the grace shall put your feet in the set place I AM has called forth.

You may have the mind of Christ so you may see all around you as I AM beholds the sons of men.

Come to Me and then you will see as I AM sees and not judge by Your eyes, but the hearts of men will be revealed unto thee.

Come and see, you still will not partake and believe in Me?

Come to Me and take My hand. I AM is gentle towards your heart.

I will displace it and restore you to Me.  My heart in you shall free you of all your iniquity….

For in Me, you are clean and will be there for all to see what I AM has done in thee.

For in Me, there is liberty. Come and see all that I AM has created in and for thee. Come to Me and believe for I AM shall set your free.

By My Spiirt, you shall live and know all things I AM has prepared for thee. Come to Me and believe. Be set free from your unbelief.

I AM is waiting for your heart to be given to Me. I will open up the Door for your entrance in to Me.

Then My Kingdom is yours , but you must come and believe in Me.

Then all that I AM has called in for you is revealed as you may remain in Me for all eternity.

Come to Me and know I AM all this world needs….. I AM here and waiting.

Turn to Me as the day is drawing to a close. I AM marks the time and then My Father calls it home.

Many think they see but all do not partake to believe.

Pride goes strong before a fall. They are strong in their stance but I AM is not too far to hear…

Will you then cry to Me so I AM may set you free?

The humble are lifted up to see My face. Those that are needy are full in Me.

Those that are full  remain in need.

Which of those shall you be known by Me?

 

SELAH!! SELAH!!

 

 

 

What Kind Of A Song Or Sound Are You Unto The Lord?

I have asked the Lord many times, if I were a flower what kind am I in Your eyes?  Okay…..

If I were a song, what kind of melody am I  for You? Okay…..

If I were a cloud what kind of cloud am I in Your eyes? Okay….

If I were a color what color am I to You in Your eyes?… Okay…..

If I were a bird, what color and kind am I in Your eyes?…. Okay…

If I were an animal am I a majestic white mare or a roaring lion or a wimpy weasel in Your eyes?…. Okay….

Lord, how full of Your Spirit am I and are You pleased?  … Okay……

Fill me up more. Lord. Fill up Your bride…

Lord,  are we waiting on You until all those who are family have joined your ranks or are we blocking you?  Fill us, Lord…..

Show us how You see Your bride this day?

Let us see……

We are Yours. Fill us Lord….. The fire is not to refine us…. We are dead in Christ…

His fire is refine Him? I do not think so.

Jesus Christ needs refining? I do not think so… WRONG!!

When the fire is hot on gold, what comes to the top?

So the fire shows us what is Him and what we are still alive in ourselves… As we  see and release, He increases His throne in us….

Wonder why He said out of our hearts will flow living waters in John chapter 7?….

Well, in Ezekiel, it is written the river flowed from His throne….

He is King over us, right?  So out of us, shall His healing waters flow…..

The more He is King in and over us, the increase of His river flows through us….

If we come to Him full, we go away hungry.

If we come to Him empty, we go away from Him full.

Did you ever notice Psalm 149 is a battle ?

Then the last Psalm 150 is a praise and alleluia song glorifying God by all musical instruments.

Heaven is surrounded with sound…..

We just did not make up surround sound…

Heaven is filled with sounds of heaven; songs and praises and lightnings and thunderings.

All in one surround sound to glorify God and His King who rules in the  lives of men…..

It is the best orchestra ever….

Can we turn our ears from the earth twang to heaven’s orchestra?….

We won’t miss His timing and warnings and instructions if we do.

I have been given a large, actually huge, ability to love music.

It is always playing in my house…. Songs of heaven to and from heaven.

It is easy to keep our hearts in the  heavenly place we have been given, when we surround ourselves in heavenly thoughts of God.  This is the place He won back for us.

We must not get side tracked by the intimidation of the Goliaths in the land….

With five stones- five witnesses of the name of the Lord Most High which  worked through David to take down the bear and the lion.

David took the giant down by David’s knowledge of God’s strength in him showing up in David’s past battles.

SOOOOOO>>>> It took only ONE of the five stones and the name of the Lord Most High that toppled that giant like a little weed.

Our Lord rules in the sons of men.  Do not be deceived He is here and sees all and knows all.

Be steady in our faith. We must know the past battles of God working through us are our weapons of victory.

He has been with us before and is  here today and will be forever…. This is our testimony of His faithfulness.

We know Him just as David did… We have spent time with Him and He has proven Himself as trustworthy….

He is now looking at us to see if we believe of His greatness.  We shout, YES, Lord! You are Great and worthy of all our praise…

Let us be the sounding instruments of praise….as we bring His light to the unfruitful works of darkness….. Yes, we do in God…. David did in God.  Jesus did in God.

For things will be as the Beginning  in the End.  Our end is His Beginning and His End was our Beginning and completeness in Him.

Be still, all is in His plan. Nothing is being completed in the earth that the Lord does not have knowledge of……

He warned us of nations that are barking dogs to keep our eyes on the dog while the snake infiltrates the land…..

We must have our ears tuned into heaven and then take heed to His warnings.

So as we heed His warnings, His  instructions will be sought and then can be be implemented in the earth.

So let us do the math;….. until the fullness of the Gentiles is in,…. then Christ will be all and in all, as written in Romans and Colossians.

In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God. The Word was God, ( John 1:1).

Galatians tells us to walk by faith in His Spirit and be the sons of God— That the life we now live we live by faith in the Son of God…… We have died in Christ….

Ephesians tells us that we are seated with Christ in heavenly places so then we may also know the depth and height and width and length of the love of Christ who has died to give us life..  We now have the ability in understanding to learn of and from Him.

Philippians tells us to count it all loss for the excellence of the knowledge of Him, Christ Jesus our Lord. Then we may gain Him and live for the higher calling.  We may be found in Christ Jesus, having no righteousness of our own but alone in His. Learning of Him and knowing His resurrection power and being conformed to His death.

Colossians tells us the magnificence of our Lord in God. We are found complete in Him. We have died and our life is now hidden in Christ Jesus in God….. Our hope of glory is Christ in us…..For Christ is all and in all.

There is a great transformation in restoration of His bride through out the progression of the New Testament.

Let us jump into His plan and be a living sacrifice so His will may be complete in us.  Let Holy Fire  set us as a burning sacrifice which is never consumed but transformed by His love.

If you are being concerned of “your ” ministry?  Well, if it is centered in Him, then Christ is the fragrance and His life of Christ is being poured out.

The measure of Christ in our lives and pouring out of us will stand the fires of His eyes.  We reconcile the world to Him…. It is actually His ministry or Holy Spirit’s. We are the vessels so that the power may be known to be God’s and not us….God glories in no flesh.

 

All the world is looking for Jesus Christ. The Desire of the nations. Let us make sure we are giving Christ Jesus and His great love for the nations.

This is the season we  hear the heavens opened as His Spirit calling all to His heart and allowing Him to be their home. The Dove shall find a home on this earth in His people.

Let us turn to hear Him and see where His eyes are gazing towards… He desires His beloved. He wants all for there shall be nothing of His fragments left. He gathered all.

Do you know the position of His saints?

See this: Deuteronomy 33:3,Yes, He loves the people; All His saints are in Your hand; they sit down at Your feet; Everyone receives Your words.

So what is written in Luke 10 of Mary has chosen the needful thing and it will not be taken from her is a symbol of  His heart for His people. All to be gathered, sitting  and gazing to hear His words.

Are we listening? Will our works stand the fire of His eyes? Are we standing the fight that the Words of His mouth and our position at His feet will remain our first priority?

Fire of God be our heart. Flame of God be  on His Words in our hearts. Fire of God deepen our knowledge of the Lord King Jesus and His heart.

Fire of God , help us crown Jesus King by our love, our life and thoughts!

Christ in us is our hope of glory as written in Colossians.

Enoch’s day is what He desires now……

His fire is entering those who are waiting and knowing there is more of Him we need.

Moses was told to go deliver His people…… Moses said, Lord, who am I?  This was after forty years of brokenness in the desert.

Then Moses was shown the power of God with him…. How much better now do we have?  Holy Spirit is in us!  We are not orphans or alone.

We sit and listen and pray so we may ride the wave or cut the head off of the intimidator….. Which ever picture you are more comfortable in seeing yourself in Christ accomplish. Believe it, see it and live it!

As written: We can do all things through Christ who strengthens us…. Now let us prove this scripture!

Let us know Him as we have our victories by His name that every knee must bow and tongue confess- our Jesus Christ is Lord.

Flesh must be nothing this day. Our spirit must rule and have the obedience of only His  Word over our hearts.

Allow His flame to burn us but not consume us. Be alive in Christ alone, beloved.  This is the time  He has waited for us, His beloved.

So let us take a big deep breath…..

Open up our heart and repent….

Let us bow down….

Let us gaze up to see His face…

But our tears blur our vision……

Let us give Him our old stony heart…..

Let Him put in us a new heart with His Word written consuming us……

Allow the tears to fall to wash our King’s feet….

Let us feel His mighty hand lift our chin to see His eyes…….

We are learning to turn to see Him…

We gulp as we know we are looking up….

But we melt in the love from His eyes that pours forth on us….

We are stunned as we see…..

He is smiling….

His Words mold our hearts into pure gold as He speaks….

Your are Mine, I have waited for this day….

Come with Me….

I AM will show you all things to come…

Things that you do not know.  I AM will speak….

So as they come to pass, you will know I AM is I AM…..

There is none other…..

Come with Me and I will show you My all for your all.

Do not look back, for there is nothing there but I AM….

Look to Me and keep My step and hear My breath….

Know Me as your all…. For I AM has known you in My all….

We will never be divided again……

You are My beloved. You re Mine……..

 

After we swallow, we say, yes, Lord and I am Yours.

We arise and brush the dirt off our knees and walk in His rhythm…….

Holy Spirit, awaken us to the love of our Great Beloved King….

We allow You to turn us to be His wholly and fully for this is Your Day, Lord, not ours. Amen and Amen!

 

Selah!

 

Children,

Are things shaking around you? I AM says rejoice!  Rejoice in  this day for your prayers are being heard.  Holy Spirit  be an all consuming fire in you this day. Holy Spirit comes to be your vision. He reveals My purpose and will for this time. There is no hinderance anymore to the right nor to the left. All is straight into the righteousness of God which kisses the earth. Do not fear for I AM. Do not hesitate to do what I AM says for this is your place in I AM. Hear and obey  and be what I AM says you are. By My words in you shall show the world to know I AM that I AM. What I AM has spoken in the dark is a light to the nations. What I AM has called light, darkness cannot hinder. It must bow and leave as I AM has spoken it to be.  I AM has loved  the world with an everlasting love.  The evil one has distorted My truth speaking as there is no rewards for actions done on this earth.  He has made the people believe that they may kill with the sword and not know My word that they shall also be killed by the sword. Unless they call I AM that I AM.

I AM is a warrior for My bride. Ask of Me, and I AM will show you things that are to come…. You ask why is this written in the My Book?  And He said to me, Do not seal the words of the prophecy of this book, for the time is at hand. He who is unjust, let him be unjust still; he who is filthy, let him be filthy still; he who is righteous, let him be righteous still; he who is holy, let him be holy still.  And behold, I AM coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to give to every one according to His work. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last.

Because I AM that I AM and all shall know I AM that I AM. All the pharaohs and all the poor. The full come to Me and leave empty and empty come to Me and are filled to overflowing as  I AM  is welcomed in their hearts…. All in time I AM has wanted to dwell in and with My people in the creation that I AM has called forth……… Please Me and walk with Me and in Me by faith.

I AM has come to open your ears this day to show you a better way and peace in your heart, if you will come to Me and turn and repent from your sins…. I AM lowly to swoop down and pick you up in My great affection for you. Turn to Me this day, and I will turn to you, know I AM while I AM open to hear.

Do you not know I AM has sent His Spirit on this earth. He is beckoning My people to turn now everyone from their evil ways. What do you want ? Meet Me in wrath of justice or My mercy and compassion. Come to Me and I AM will forgive and forget. But know this, all who mock at I AM or do not turn for this has come into your ears today…. Destruction and death will be  your path.

Come to Me and learn of Me this day.. Come to Me,. Hear My whisper and My gentle touch on your brow to look up and turn.

Be My song on the earth that tickles and brings pleasure to My ears! Bring Me delight!!

I AM was your purpose on this earth.  Bring joy to Me for I AM has created you to be Mine…. You will bring glory to Me in obedience or in My wrath for I AM will be glorified by My creation. You may count on it or count your past as lost for My sake. Chose the latter and forget your former as I AM has…..

Go back to My Beginning and know Me. I AM God and there is no other. Know the End will be as the Beginning…. For I AM Alpha and Omega. Let your end be My Beginning for you.

SELAH!! SELAH!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What In The World Are We Doing?

Did you ever look at a rose?  A rose is so perfect as it opens up its bud.  The colors that are so brilliant, we know only God can do this! We proclaim how beautiful His creation is.  Only a great Creator could make the beauty that He has.  The mountains speak of His splendor. The ocean speaks of His vastness.  The heat and warmth of the sun speaks of His faithfulness.  His rolling hills speaks of His neverending wisdom and riches. The twinkling of the gazillion stars speaks of His neverending love for the nations of the earth.  He loves us so much that He created this great beauty for us.  He created us to worship Him, the Creator.  How can we not adore the One who makes the sun shine on the waters to make the waters shine.

This same wonderful God who has a great and tender heart gets hurt just like we do…. Did you know that?  Look what is written in Ezekiel 6:9-10; Then those of you who escape will remember Me among the nations where they are carried captive, because I was crushed by their adulterous heart which has departed from Me, and their eyes which play the harlot, after their idols; they will loathe themselves for the evils which they committed in all their abominations.

And they shall know that I AM the Lord; I have not said in vain that I would bring this calamity on them.

When I read the above scriptures how and why God’s heart was crushed. I thought, WOW!  I never imagined God’s heart could get hurt from our turning away from Him…… But we are made in His image…. If we get hurt by injustice or betrayal- so does He.  I wept when I knew God’s heart could get crushed….. How much more did I thank our Heavenly Father for His Son Jesus…..

Jesus also wept over those He came to bring close to Him, because they would not draw close as written in Luke 19:41-42; Now as He drew near, He saw the city and wept over it, saying, If you had known, even you, especially in this your day, the things that make for your peace! But now they are hidden from your eyes.

Our Mighty God has created such beauty because He is beautiful…. Also, out of His treasuries comes the cold and the frost and snow….. Who can stand before His cold?

It is wise to have the fear of the Lord.   It is wise to bow and kneel before Him and honor and obey His commands.  His commands are His instructions to life, His life eternal…..

Think, beloved, a life that never ends but just increases every second…… This life resides inside of us- believers….. He is awesome and now we are. Yup, we are awesome because He is in us!

His commands are not hard to live to a regenerated heart….. A baptized heart hears his or her God in the dawn and in the night…..

He has given us a baptized and tender heart like His own…… Written in our hearts are the Words of our God….

If Jesus Christ is the Word of God, then Jesus Christ is written on our hearts….. He is close….. He is that close….. He does not miss a thing….

His love is a  story to us because His commands are not grievous, but full of life and peace and righteousness.

How can we make the tender heart of our God and His Son weep?

Can we really draw near to Him and think He does not see our double minded heart?  Really?

We draw near with a lot of words and drama, but, in the secret place, He sees our all……

Can we now draw near with our hearts before the Day of His Promise and be honest?

Repent and let Him restore us to His heart. Stillness in our lives allow His breath to blow away the earthly strands that hold us away from Him.

There are to be no other lovers but He wants all of our heart and mind and soul and strength….. He is worthy and He will also show us how to live:

I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.

Allowing His Spirit  to restore his sons and daughters to Himself.  Give him our heart of stone and let Him restore us to Him by putting  in us His Spirit of life …..

A while ago, I said, these are the days of Elijah…… There may be drought, which sort of, shows the drought of our heart not partaking of His Living waters, His Spirit in us.

A pure heart as written shall see God…..Remember, what is in heaven, shall be here.  We bind what is not in heaven and loose what is in heaven here.    The Kingdom of God is within…… Yup!!! Within us? No Way!! And I say, Yay- way!!

As written in Luke 17:21, Now when He was asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, He answered them and said, The kingdom of God does not come with observation; nor will they say, See here! or See there! For indeed, the kingdom of God is within you.

But Jesus also said this……..

Mark 7:14-23; When He had called all the multitude to Himself, He said to them, Hear Me, everyone, and understand:

There is nothing that enters a man from outside which can defile him; but the things which come out of him, those are the things that defile a man.

If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear!

When He entered a house away from the crowd, His disciples asked Him concerning the parable.

So He said to them, Are you thus without understanding also? Do you not perceive that whatever enters a man from outside cannot defile him, because it does not enter his heart but his stomach, and is eliminated, thus purifying all foods? 

And He said, What comes out of a man, that defiles a man.

For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lewdness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness.

All these evil things come from within and defile a man. 

So learning of  the depravity of man.  Learning of our own depravity in our hearts….. O, man, what shall we do?

We bow in thanksgiving to Jesus Christ and our Father for the sacrifice of His Son to take our sin to death and rose…..So where are we now in God’s eyes, if we have believed in Jesus Christ as our Savior?

Romans 8:1-14; There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. 

For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the  law of sin and death.

For what the law could not do  in that it was weak through the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh on account of sin: He condemned the sin in the flesh,

that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit. 

For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.

For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. 

Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be. 

So then, those who are in the flesh cannot please God. 

But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His. 

And if Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.

But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.

Therefore, brethren, we are debtors- not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh. 

For if you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.

For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, theses are the sons of God.

So our beautiful God has given us His Promise, His Holy Spirit. Then by His Spirit  we will live and be in His pleasure by His Spirit.  For we live by faith and not by sight…..

I do not want to ever – ever  crush the heart of my Heavenly Father, ever….. or my King.

I am so grateful you agree too!

We live by His grace and by the Spirit of God who lives big inside of us!  He is not tiny in us, or there is not a small measure…… We are complete in Him and yet, Him in us, is tiny?

NOPE!!!!!

His Spirit is the Spirit of the King of the universe and beyond.  He is King and He is not stingy. We must not judge God as we know mankind…. One of His angels slew 185,000 of God’s enemies….. His riches and blessings towards us are unsearchable….. But we still search Him out!

Think bigger and better of His love for you and me…. He is mighty in pulling down our strongholds of religion and unbelief that stands against His Truth.

His love is greater and mightier than a whirlwind or a mighty Tsunami….. His love breaks open the dry earth of our heart of stone, He puts in us His heart of flesh and brings living waters flowing abundantly out of us!

Do you see and know His beauty now….. It is in you and it is in me…. Beloved, draw near to the rushing waters that are flowing from His throne….. Run – don’t pitter patter here and there….. There is nothing in this world that compares to running to His cross where the blood  and water flows creating His bride.  He is longing to give us the flowing gushing waters of His great love towards us, His Spirit, if we have Him not…… He is in us and longs us to be with Him forever……

See His beauty. See His eyes of love. Turn to Him and His arms stretched out wide waiting for you…..

He has poured forth His love….. Receive Him…. He is walking up and knocking on your door.

You opening it? Let Him in….. I promise you – You will remember this day in greater measure than as you remember your own birthday.

He is unforgetable….. Yet, He tells us always to remember….

How do we forget?…… The world tries to drown Him out and His Word.

Many are speaking of their rights…..

My question to all is what about God’s rights?

This is His creation and we are His creation.

Is not His worship due Him? ……..

If you differ, well, the story of time ends that Jesus Christ will be all and in all……

You always have an alternative, the lake of fire…..

You may choose not to receive His beauty and His love into your heart and believe in His Son……

WHY?

You are missing out of the greatest love and adventure in your life……

Movies are fun to watch but I rather live in His movie….You have a part. We all do.

We are all created to give Him glory- We are either a vessel of His mercy or His vessel of His wrath.

Now the people of Israel missed seeing Jesus, not all of them, but many of them….. Even those who followed Him, thought He was going to restore the kingdom of David. They had their own agenda.

Their hearts were not aligned with the purpose of the Messiah and His Father…..

Elijah’s come to the scene when the current trend is very far away from God’s plan…..

If everyone heard God as their breath, the Elijah’s would not need to bring restoration of His people to our Heavenly Father.

I believe our God desires we all live in Enoch’s day.  I know the Lord’s prayer in John 17;22-23 is answered, but we must apprehend it like we did Jesus’ death on the cross and resurrection to ourselves personally……We take the Truth by faith and live by and in and for Him alone.

And the glory which You gave Me  I have given them, that they may be one just as We are one: I in them, and You in Me; that they may be made perfect in one, and that the world may know that You have sent Me, and have loved them as You have loved Me.

So let us take a deep breath.

Let us let it out as we repent.

Let us turn to see His Voice.

Let us know we have been made  to hear this Holy One.

Let us step into the thunder of heaven.

Let us live in the fire and water of His love.

Let us take up our cross and know the weight is light.

Let us jump in joy as we fly into His purpose.

Let us live by faith in this Son of God for

as the days we walk are as Enoch.

It is no longer I who live but Him in me.

My heart rejoice for My King is here.

I do not need to look here and there;

for He is here!

Selah!

 

Children,

You are so concerned and troubled over many things.  Come to My feet and learn of Me. Your heart will be quieted and peace of Me shall reign. Do you bend your ear to hear Me? Or is the vision you are hearing from the many voices of the world?  Who has your heart?  Does fear awaken you in the night or does My gentle voice singing over you awaken your heart to hear?  Which do you choose?….. Are the many voices speaking  louder captured your heart?  In fear or in My peace.   Your choosing will lead you today and will bring your fruit of tomorrow.  Some choose  television versus My vision…… Come to Me all who weary and heavy laden, and I will give you rest.  Know Me as your Prince of peace.

I AM your good Shepherd. I AM will lead you to still waters where your heart may hear Me…. Watch what you hear, the evil one loves to entangle in fear…. A mighty web is being laid for your heart to fall. Fear is his fruit and death is his goal for you…… Turn to Me and have life.   I AM knows all you need to know. My Spirit will tell you of all things to come, but alas, you do not come…… Your ears are your betrayer. Who do you trust?   I AM the Beginning and I AM the Last…… and the present is Mine. Is My arm shortened that I AM will not save?  I AM God and I AM does not change….

As I AM walked the earth, the fear of the Romans led My people more than I AM….. Do not let the fear of men be sounding louder in your heart then My love…. Trust Me and have peace. Trust Me and have life everlasting. Trust Me and know I AM will never let you go or forsake you.

You do not know Me. Come to Me and I AM will tell you things that you do not know…… and then when they come to pass, you will know that I AM has spoken……  Come to Me, and know you are forgiven and free. Live in I AM and free you will be. Do not hesitate or wait for tomorrow is Mine. You do not own your days, I AM does. Do not be like the child whose father made a wonderful house for him to live and beautiful room for them to share……. He looks for his son, but alas, the son is sitting in the dirt waiting for another day to come and does not turn to hear his father calling him to his new home.

There are many that hear My voice and go on as if it is one of the many voices in the world….. Be the one, who stops and asks Lord, I am listening speak to Me. Let me know Your sweet voice….. Let my heart rejoice that my ears do hear.   Give me Your grace abundantly so I may live the life you have called me to partake.  Pray to be hungry and thirsty. Come to My feet and hear My words. I AM the Light of men, but men wanted to remain dark in their soul or chained to their riches of this world. Do not let this be you.  Come to Me, I will give you rest.

My food is everlasting. My Word is never passing. Believe in Me and so shall you see all that I AM has given thee…. I AM loves you today, yesterday and forever. I AM does not change. Come to Me…. I AM waiting. Please Me and come.

 

SELAH!! SELAH!!

 

Father God, send your rain. The land of our hearts are thirsty for Your Spirit.  We ask for Your grace to prepare our hearts for Your Spirit. Show us how to still our souls for Your arrival.

In Jesus name, we ask….. You said, Lord, anything we ask the Father, in Your name, we will receive…… We are waiting and excited for Your refreshing arrival.

Thank You. We draw near to You with repentant hearts….. We love You.  Teach us to love You more.  We are listening.

Your children

 

 

 

Did We Learn To Ride The Wave?

Did we learn to ride the wave?  What do you mean?

My heart goes to the families that have lost loved ones….. However, we must know all men are appointed to die…..100% sure of it….  My largest prayer to our Heavenly Father, is did they know you and please let them know Your Son, this day…..

We do not know when our last day is on this earth…. Our God does. Is it not imperative to draw close to a God as we have been allowed time?

There may be more waves to come in the future of our days…Some small and some waves seem to multiply into others that grow mightier as time goes on.

As written in Psalm 46: God is our refuge and strength, A very present help in trouble.

Therefore we will not fear, even though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; though its waters roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with its swelling. Selah…..

There is a river whose streams shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacle of the Most High.

God is in the midst of her, she shall not be moved; God shall help her, just at the break of dawn.

The nations raged, the kingdoms were moved; He uttered His voice, the earth melted.

The Lord of hosts is with us, The God of Jacob is our refuge.

Come, behold the works of the Lord, who has made desolations in the earth. He makes wars cease to the end of the earth; He breaks the bow and cuts the spear in two; He burns the chariot in the fire.  

Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth! 

The Lord of hots is with us; The God of Jacob is our refuge.

 

Moreover, brethren, I declare to you the gospel which I preached to you, which also you received and in which you stand,

by which also you saved, if you hold fast the word which I preached to you- unless you believed in vain.

For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received; that Christ  died for our sins according to Scriptures,

and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures,

and that He was seen by Cephas, then by the twelve.

After that He was seen by over five hundred brethren at once, of whom greater part remain to the present, but some have fallen asleep.

After that He was seen by James, then by all the apostles, ( 1 Corinthians 15:1-7. )

 

Until the day in which He was taken up, after He through the Holy Spirit had given commandments to the apostles whom He had chosen,

to whom He also presented Himself alive after His sufferings by many infallible proofs, being seen  by them during forty days and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God.

And being assembled together with them, He commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the Promise of the Father, which, He said, you have heard from Me;

for John truly baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days from now.

Therefore, when they had come together, they asked Him, saying, Lord, will You at this time restore the kingdom to Israel? 

And He said to them, It is not for you to know times or seasons, which the Father has put in His own authority.

But you shall receive the power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.

Now when He had spoken these things, while they watched, He was taken up, and a cloud received Him out of their sight. 

And while they looked steadfastly toward heaven as He went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel,

who also said, Men of Galilee, why do you stand gazing up into heaven? This same Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, will so come in like manner a you saw Him go into heaven, ( Acts 1:1-11).

Because……..as written in 13:8 , Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever.

We look up to where our help comes from, but we have been given a Helper…… Or we may soon be given a Helper, if we ask for Him, if  we do not know or have Holy Spirit,……

Now I wrote the Holy Writ, to emphasize the time we are in now….. Jesus rose from the dead and manifested Himself to many people, over five hundred men and women……then He was received into heaven…. This is the forty days where we are now between Resurrection of our King and His reception into heaven and then………?????

 

Jesus spoke to His crew before they came to take Him away in John 14:13-23: And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

If you ask anything in My name, I will do it.

If you love Me, keep My commandments.

And I will pray to 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, for He dwells with you and will be in you,

I will not leave you orphans; I will come to you.

A little while longer and the world will see Me no more, but you will see Me. Because I live, you will live also.

At that day you will know that I am in My Father, and you in Me and I in you.

He who has My commandments and keeps them, it is he who loves Me. And he who loves Me, will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and manifest Myself to him. 

Judas (not Iscariot) said to Him, how is it that You will manifest Yourself to us, and not to the world?

Jesus answered and said to them, If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him.

Who cannot be overcome and so excited over the Promises Jesus is making to them and now to us?   Do we hear Him? Scriptures states all that are His, hear His voice….. Do we see Him? Scripture above states if we love Him and obey Him, we shall see Him….. The world won’t see but we who have eyes ?

Man, when I read this for the first time, I started to cry that God’s love was so strong and yet, wanted to dwell in Me and with me forever……Yes, Yes, I said, come to me now, please? Please come…..

 

I often question what happened to the five hundred?  Jesus appeared to a lot of people when He was around those forty days……   Have we asked Him that if we draw close to open our eyes?

There were only 120 in the upperroom for the giving of His Spirit upon His believers……. 500-120 equals 380 didn’t show…… They might have come later with Peter’s preaching in Acts 2.

The point I am making…… We are in the same forty day, ( a little less than that today), holding pattern between  His Resurrection and Pentecost…….There were a complete number of fifty days so we can celebrate Pentecost as our God’s jubilee.

We always get what we are seeking…… If we are seeking things of the world, we will get them….. If we are seeking the Uncreated One, we will get Him as He promised.

 

Everyone tends to think forty days are oh oh,  trials and tribulations,  but in these days,  40 days can be the sweetest days  living with Holy Spirit within  us…..

We have no other reliance but on God, if we believe….We have peace in the midst of storms, because He is with us.

HE IS WITH US!  He has not left us or forsaken us….. Shouldn’t we be leaning and clinging to Him as our refuge and help in this time of need?…… He is our Answer and will guide us through or even better over the waves that are before us.

Do not fear. Our God is with us….. Let us be still and trust Him.

Most of all, receive the Promise of the Father!!!!!..… Holy Spirit on and within us….. He speaks to us not in the loud earthquakes, nor in the blowing wind, but sometimes, He comes to us that way…. Nor is He in the fire, but He is the still small voice.. and turns us into His fiery ones.

He will not compete with the noise of the world. If that is what we listen to, He will not be heard….. Our hearts must be prepared for Him, if we have not received Him…..

The forty days can be preparing for His arrival to our hearts, our home…. Get the world out and let the Word of God in…..

 

The idols must be destroyed.  The turning to Him and crying out- You are God and there is no other…. What must I do?

He will let you know….. I promise, He will let you know…. Be washed in His blood and be an empty waterpot for Him to fill up…..

 

These days may be perilous and we must know and live that our God is our refuge. There is no other like our God. But that must be your experience and then testimony.. Only He can give us peace as the storm is swirling around us…..

This world is a stepping stone to our next place of residence….. God’s kingdom in His glory or living and experiencing God’s wrath in th\e lake of fire forevermore…..

He loves us and died for us so we may call Him our God and live in Him by Jesus Christ……TODAY!

We must decide . Tomorrow is not a given.

Satan surely wants you to put off your decision….. This is not written in the Scriptures, but misery loves company…..

Let’s see- peaceful rest in Him or not….. Seems to me to be a no brainer…..Unfortunately, there are many that miss His call,  I pray that will not be you.

 

Please do not mistake God’s silence in your life as your okay…… The noise of the world in your life may be muffling out His tapping you on the shoulder. God always is speaking, we must have the frequency of heaven to hear.  Our heart must be pliable to obey….

Most of all, He must have preeminence.

He loves you and wants you with Him and He wants to be in you to help  you on this narrow road….. Remember as written in the Be Attitudes, wide is the road for destruction.

 

HE IS ALIVE -Beloved, WE ARE ALIVE  IN HIM….

Be still and in one accord.  His arm is not shortened….. Watch the rain, however, do not think  the rain is here, the waves will not rise. Rain is coming from the heaven, vertical. Waves rise on the horizon.

He is the Helper to teach  us to ride the waves and  not be overcome.

Listen to Him and talk to Him often.

He will tell all things to come.  He will strengthen by adversity.  Did you ever get strong sitting in complacency ?  We then will choose the good and right path to His peace and blessing. No matter what is going on, we will overcome.

 

Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and Jesus our Lord,

as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue,

by which we have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. 

But also for this very reason, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue, to virtue knowledge,

to knowledge self control, to self control perseverance, to perseverance to godliness, to godliness to brotherly kindness, and to brotherly kindness love.

For if these things are yours and abound, you will be neither barren, nor unfruitful in the knowledge of  our Lord Jesus Christ. 

For he who lacks these things is shortsighted, even  to blindness, and has forgotten that he was cleansed from his old sins.

Therefore, brethren, be even more diligent to make your call and election sure, for if you do these things you will never stumble;

for so an entrance will be supplied to you abundantly into everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, ( 2 Peter 1:2-11).

Let’s take a deep breath of Him and repent.

Let’s bow our knee to our King as Lord.

Let us ask for His Spirit to abide in us.

Let us let go and grab on to His mane of thunder.

Let us ride on His reign through the kingdom of our God who is mighty to save.

Fly high because we have bowed low.

Be still and hear His roar and  get the sound and move of heaven this day.

Turn to see His voice speaking to you…….  Shhhhh! Listen!

Ask for the dreams of His heart; ask for the visions of His heart.

Beloved, prepare for His coming!  FOR HE IS COMING!!

Listen closely,- can you hear the Spirit and the bride say COME? Even so, Lord Jesus, come!!

Now give Him our time to allow His good and perfect work in us.

Amen!!!

Selah!

Now may the God of peace who brought up our Lord Jesus from the dead, that great Shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant make you complete in every good work to do His will, working in you what is well pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.

Children,

Why watch others, when I AM in your midst.  They cannot save your soul and spirit from your sins and idols…. I AM the Only One who you must come to- so come to Me now as the snow is lightly covering the grass of your heart. I am beckoning you to come to Me now….. Meet I AM now while the sun is still low in the sky.  Come to Me.   I AM that I AM but I AM lowly and gentle this day as I AM knocks on the door of your heart…. Let Me in….. Trust Me… Open up your heart, I AM knows you….. Come to know Me now as the night draws nigh….. I AM closer to you than your breath, but you will not let Me in to help you…. I know you hear Me in the middle of the night when all is silent but your wondering worrying mind for your heart can never be quiet. Come to Me, I AM will quiet your soul with My refreshing water and cleanse you from all your sins with My life blood.   Come to Me…. You say you are not hungry, but you watch My beloved. You say you are satisifed, but you watch My own…… Grab My feet, and you shall be healed of blindness in your issue of life…. Know Me now and forevermore will be Your peace.

Those who hear My tempo, justice is My crown and My feet fall heavy on the oppressors in the lands….. Hear My thunder and lightning come set order  for righteousness. Walk in My footsteps and do not hold back for all is coming to Light. All that is hidden will be disclosed.  All that is spoken in secret will be magnified.  I AM has heard the cries of My beloved. I AM that I AM. Do not fear,  believe My glory is seen and known.  I AM a mighty God and glory I AM is your refuge…… Meet My eyes of fire.   Oh beloved, they are of My everlasting love for you who cling to Me…. My heart is satisfied for you draw close to I AM.   See those things that are not yet as you pray for them to be because I AM with you…… Believe and see My goodness now in the land of the living…. I AM has heard. See in your watch……See and then watch…Believe first and then the seen will be in your watch.  Hear for My sound approaching!   Awake to My new sound. Have I AM not said, I AM doing a new thing!  Will you perceive it?  Allow the new. Are not the waterpots filled with new wine?

I AM the same always, but do you know how I AM will present Himself this day?

SELAH!! SELAH! !!

 

 

 

What Flows From Our Belly? Really?

There  was a shepherd who God sent to deliver a message a long time ago…… God is the Word and His Word is life and alive from yesterday, and today and for evermore.

Can  His Word for us this day be from the past to forevermore? His Word is relevant…. He has not changed….. He intends us to change as we draw near to Him. This happens by His glory found in His Word.

The heart of man and woman is as deceitful as it was in the beginning, but God has not changed. He wants us too…..

So let’s see what He has to say today!  Hebrews 4:7 speaks: again He designates a certain day, saying in David, Today, after such a long time, as it has been said: Today, if you will hear His voice, do not harden your hearts.

This Amos spoke as instructed from God in chapter 4:6- Seek the Lord and live!  

Amos’s  prior chapter reveals the Lord’s heart as He  speaks in 3:6-13, Also I gave you cleanness of teeth in all your cities, and lack of bread in all your places, Yet you have not returned to Me, says the Lord.

I also withheld rain from you, when there were still three months to the harvest. I made it rain on one city,  I withheld rain from another city. One part was rained upon, and where it did not rain the part withered. So two or three  cities wandered to another city to drink water, but they were not satisfied; yet you have not returned to Me, says the Lord.

I blasted you with blight and mildew, when your gardens increased, your vineyards, your fig trees, and your olive trees, the locust devoured them; yet you have no returned to Me, says the Lord.

I sent among you a plague after the manner of Egypt; the young men I killed with a sword, along with your captive horses; I made the stench of your camps come up into your nostrils; yet you have not returned to Me, says the Lord. 

I overthrew some of you, as God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah, and you were like a firebrand plucked from the burning; yet you  have not returned to Me, says the Lord. 

Therefore thus I will do to you, O Israel; Because I will do this to you, prepare to meet your God, O Israel! 

For behold, He who forms mountains and creates the wind, who declares to man what his thought is, and makes morning darkness, who treads the high places of earth- the Lord of hosts is His name.

He then speaks in Amos 4:6-15,- Seek the Lord and live! Lest He break out like fire in the house of Joseph, and devour it, with no one to quench it in Bethel- You who turn justice to wormwood, and lay righteousness in the earth!

He made Pleiades and Orion, He turns the shadow of death into morning and makes the day dark as night; He calls for the waters of the sea and pours them out on the face of the earth; the Lord is His name.

He rains ruin on the strong, so that fury comes upon the fortress.  

They hate the one who rebukes at the gate, and they abhor the one who speaks uprightly.

Therefore because you tread down the poor and take grain taxes from him, though you have built houses of hewn stone, yet you shall not dwell in them; you have planted pleasant vineyards, but you shall not drink wine from them.

For I know your manifold transgressions and your mighty sins; afflicting the just and taking bribes; diverting the poor from justice at the gate.

Therefore the prudent keep silent at that time, for it is an evil time.  

Seek good and not evil, that you may live; so the Lord God of hosts will be with you, as you have spoken. Hate evil, love good; establish justice in the gate. It may be that the Lord God of hosts will be gracious to the remnant of Joseph.

This little book from Amos is very awesome….I hope you sit down and read it.  Though it is written and found in the Book of Prophets, it is a view of God speaking to a hardened heart generation……

It is the whole counsel of God, for He does not change, we are to change…. This helps us understand His ways. If the Old Testament was to be irrelevant for today, Holy Spirit would have not saved all books as He has over two thousand years…..

We can’t use 2 Chronicles 7:14 for us and throw harder exhortation away found in the other books, especially the books of the prophets……

I hear Malachi used a lot for offerings though…….hmmmmm.

Can we learn to adhere to the whole counsel of God which He has left us?….. Who makes the cake without all the ingredients and with out the heat of the oven…… Holy Spirit is the fire…. and we are…….? Part grain and part fat offering?

We know the Day of the Lord is terrible and awesome….. Awesome for believers and terrible for those who lifted their fist towards the Lord….

But as of right now, this is not His Day ,YET!

In reading Amos, I am forever grateful for the Son of Man, Jesus Christ, shedding His blood and washing away our sins. Do you believe?   You believe and live according to His Spirit and Truth, right? YAY!!

Nonetheless as written, we take heed to the knowledge in Hebrews 13:8, Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever…….There shall come forth a Rod from the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots. 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 He shall not judge by the sight of His eyes, nor decide by the hearing of His ears; But with righteousness He shall judge the poor, and decide with equity for the meek of the earth; He shall strike the earth with the rod of His mouth and with the breath of His lips He shall slay the wicked. Righteousness shall be the belt of His loins, and faithfulness the belt of His waist……(Isaiah 11:1-5).

The same Spirit that raised Christ from the dead is in us and the same Spirit who is described in the above scripture resides inside of us who believe….. 

We must know the whole counsel of the Lord.  A good healthy dose of medicine of  the fear of the Lord  should  be established in our heart’s foundational belief. This is the same Jesus Christ who is coming back and is with us now!  This is His mighty Holy Spirit……..  He is not a feeling. He is the firey power of God….. He is the all knowing and seeing Lord Jesus Christ.

The main point is Jesus Christ took the wrath of God, but we must not be ignorant in knowing  the fear of the Lord…The fear of the Lord is more of giving Him all our honor due to all He is and was and is to come. We do not want to trample on the precious blood of Jesus Christ.  We must hold His sacrifice precious….. We live by this scripture, right?  I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live but Christ lives in me; and the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God who loved me and gave Himself for me.

How do we do that ?  By faith in  talking to Holy Spirit to show us !!! For is is written: John 14:26; But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to remembrance all things that I said to you.

So what is suppose to flow out of our belly? The same Spirit that is written in Isaiah 11…..

Let us see God’s purpose for  His Spirit to dwell in us and be with us for now and forever…..

Ezekiel chapter 47:1-12 reveals the inheritance for His people….First, Ezekiel was shown  the instructions to rebuild the temple….. which is symbolic of the temple of the Lord that is now being built in us for Him….. as written in 2 Corinthians, ( check it out).

Then from the throne comes this river…..which is greater and mightier than any found on this earth…..And did you know this river is to heal the nations?

Let us read on this special Holy Writ: Then he brought me back to the door of the temple; and there was water, flowing from under the threshold of the temple towards the east, for the front of the temple faced east; the water was flowing from under the right side of the temple, south of the altar  , ( remember, Jesus Christ is the Door and His sacrifice allowed the Door of heaven to be opened to man again, cool huh?).

He brought me out by way of the north gate, and led me around on the outside to the outer gateway that faces east; and there was water, running out on the right side.  

And when the man went out to the east with the line in his hand, he measured one thousand cubits, and he brought me through the waters; the waters came up to my ankles. 

Again he measured one thousand and brought me through the waters; the water came up to my knees. Again he measured one thousand and brought me through; the water came up to my waist. 

Again he measured one thousand, and it was a river that I could not cross; for the water was to deep, water in which one must swim, a river that could not be crossed.  

He said to me, son of man, have you seen this? Then he brought me and returned  me to the bank of the river. 

When I returned, there,  along the bank of the river, were very many trees on one and the other. 

Then he said to me: This water flows towards the eastern region, goes down into the valley, and enters the sea, its waters are healed. 

And it shall be that everything that moves, wherever the rivers go, will live. There will be a very great multitude of fish, because these waters go there; for they will be healed, and everything will live wherever the river goes.

It shall be that fishermen will stand by it from En Gedi, to En Englaim; they will be places for spreading their nets. Their fish will be of the same kinds as the fish of the Great Sea, exceedingly many. 

But its swamps and marches will not be healed; they will be given over to salt. 

Along the bank of the river, on this side and that, will grow all kinds of trees used for food; their leaves will not wither, and their fruit will not fail. They will bear fruit every month, because their waters flows from the sanctuary. Their fruit will be for food, and their leaves for medicine.

This is also confirmed in the Book of Revelation, chapter 22:1-2: And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding from the throne of God and of the Lamb….. In the middle of its street, on either side of the river, was the tree of life, which bore twelve fruits, each tree yielding its fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were for healing of the nations.

As Jesus was walking a long while, He took a break by a well in Samaria. He was thirsty and a woman came to the well to draw water…. He asked her for some water: Then the woman of Samaria said to Him, How is it that You, being a Jew, ask a drink from me, a Samaritan woman? For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans. 

Jesus answered and said to her, If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, Give me a drink, you would have asked Him, and He would have given  you living water. 

The woman said to Him, Sir, You have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep. Where then do You get that living water?  Are You greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank from it himself, as well as his sons and his livestock?

Jesus answered, and said to her, Whoever drinks from this water will thirst again, but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst. But the water that I shall give him will become a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life. 

The woman said to Him, Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come here to draw…..

Jesus said, go call your husband, and come here……

The woman answered and said, I have no husband.

Jesus said to her, You have said well, I have no husband, for you have had five husbands, and the one whom you now have is not your husband; in that you spoke truly.   

The woman said to Him, Sir, I percieve you are a prophet….( John 4:9-19).

Before we go to Jesus for this Water of Life, we must confess and repent of how we may have more than five idols in our lives….. Our God wants us to cling to Him as our Everything….. If we cling to any but Him, we are probably going to pass by this Spirit of Life in which we desperately need…… Do not look at this woman as so below us, our heart may have many other lovers before our King….. He must be number One and all else bend thier knee to Him.  We hold ourselves back from His great neverending eternal life which flows through us in His Spirit and by His Spirit. We are the ones who block the flow of His Spirit, not Him…. We are the ones who have ears that do not hear Him because they are tuned to our idols and distractions.  He still speaks…… He still is speaking to His beloved…… Watch out though for it is written His Word is also as a hammer and fire…..He is not to be mocked or taken lightly.  Do not mistake His longsuffering and patience for His approval of things that should not be in our lives or resident in our hearts- for this is HIS HOME!

We must come clean and washed anew by His blood….. and then we  can do a high jump into His Spirit, the River of Life.

John chapter 6, Jesus Christ revealed to all that He was the Living Bread that came from heaven….. So we partake of Him, right?  All of Him, we live from His fullness,…… Now we are prepared for the His Precious Spirit to dwell in us and through us…. as He declared to all in John 7:37-39;’On the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus Stood and cried out, saying, if anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink.

He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.

But He spoke concerning the Spirit, whom those believing in Him would receive; for the Holy Spirit  was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.

Again, His voice never ceases calling all to repent and believe in His death and resurrection life….. He never ceases calling His beloved to partake at His table and drink from His cup…. Holy Spirit is given to all who call on the name of the Lord and believe.

Holy Spirit is ready to teach, instruct, guide, comfort and reveal our King in His glory….. You going to jump in or what?  Our God is patient and kind as He is also a consuming fire……   He is knocking at your door, you going to let Him in?…….We are not the owners of this earth. He is and He is coming back to claim His…… Which side of Him are you going to be found?  Do you know if there is a tomorrow?   Do you know when your last day is?  He does….. For those who believe, if we are gone from this earth, we are with Him in glory…… Do you know where you will be found?  Will He know you?  He wants to know you but you must come to Him -His way…. through the sacrifice of His Son, through His blood and bowing at His cross. Then come beloved, and enter in  to the everlasting eternal God for knowing Him is eternal life……

Come on and jump in to the River of God……  Take a deep breath, repent.  Bend your knees to Your Savior and King. Then jump high and fly and  be caught by His Spirit into the adventures of our God……

We must not see the signs of the times around us and down play God trying to get our attention to turn to Him…… His signs confirms His Voice that has been muffled by idols and adulteries of  our hearts.  Let us turn and receive Him. Give glory to the King. Open up the gates!!!!

Take away the barriers to His reigning in our lives for we are the temple of the Living God.     Let the waters flow.  Believe in the impossible being possible…. Look up and see! God is our Medicine for this Day!  Let us eat of Him, for He is the Best Meal we will ever have and in His meal we are found full in Him…. Thank You Father, all we need we have found in You for You are our Medicine for the soul……by and in Christ Jesus our Lord!

I do not cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers,: that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His callimg, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places, far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come. And He put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be head over all things to the church, which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all, ( Ephesians 1:15-23).

SELAH!

 

Father, we have quieted our souls and trust in You. We listen for Your quiet still Voice that thunders the earth with Your greatness. We ask for Your grace to be still, and listen. Thank You for Your Spirit to give us  Your strength we need to obey in living godly lives, holy and acceptable to You… You have given us all things and You are worthy to be praised.  In Jesus Christ’s name , we ask. We thank You and love You….. May our hearts be consumed  with the Spirit of Fire filling us in Your fullness of Life. Father, I pray we understand that we are complete in Your Son and are so humbled by Your Gift of Him to us and the nations.  Amen and Amen.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Remember His Faithfulness!!! Do You Partake?

Roman 8:28 speaks to us today: And we know all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.

All things- even the virus- all things work together for good…….Can we expect the goodness of God today in the land of the living? YES!!!!!! We must believe in His faithfulness.

Once I pretended to drop an envelope on a person laying in a hospital bed….. I asked, if I open my hand, will this piece of mail fall on your lap?  He said, of course it will.  Looking at me a little bewildered…..I asked, why? He said, because I know it will.  I asked again, why?   He answered, because of gravity.  I said, right,  you have experienced gravity first hand right?  He said, yes……. I said, well, God is the same way, we must know Him and experience Him…. He is your Healer because He is faithful to His promise to you and loves you so much He died for you. Trust Him and get to know Him….. Trust Him….. Love Him…. I always say, if you know God, you love Him…… if you love God, it is because you know Him.

It really does not matter where the virus came from other than the obvious, evil…….. The evil one will use who ever he can that is not a believer of Jesus Christ and our Father to do his destruction as written in John 10. Schemes and plans started by evil very early and will continue till the end of this age…… In this, we must know God and His faithfulness……… Through this, even some may be fooled they are doing great work for God, but they are far from Him…. As it is written in the Be Attitudes…… Matthew 7:21-23: Not everyone, who says to Me, Lord, Lord, shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.

Many will say to Me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?

And then I will declare to them, I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness.

Then we see in the Holy Writ in Hebrews 8:10-12, For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord: I will put My laws in their mind and write them on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people.

None of them shall teach his neighbor, and none his brother, saying, know the Lord, for all shall know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them.

For I will be mericful to their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more.

Hmmm, seems hard to understand the Holy Writ, huh?  Nope, let me show you….. He knows our hearts and the directions of our intents formed in our hearts.  If they are not earnestly living in Him.  He knows. We do not need to social distance from God!  It might be the problem that we have!  In this time, alcohol sales are up as well as other yuckie distractions—– Will they save you?  Just asking……Or put you in early living hell so you may then turn to the One who can save your soul.

It is sort of like, trying to take that one cookie that our moms told us not to eat because it would ruin our appetites for the real meal…… How did she know when we did not listen?  Could it be the chocolate stain on our lips and teeth? Well, He sees those agendas/ stains too written on our hearts….. He wants His Word written on our hearts….. We are His redeemed ones—- We are His….. His Word written on our hearts prove we are His or not.

I asked you if you partake?

I am asking when we eat at Lord’s Supper to go for His whole counsel…… We must add to our honoring His sacrifice and then make it our own.

When the Israelites celebrated the Passover, they put the blood of the lamb on the door posts to protect them from the angel of death….. Solomon also built a temple to worship the God of the universe……

It was an outside act of worship. Rules and regulations that were to be obeyed. The worship was observed on our outside person as the temple was also visible….. But God wanted our hearts, the outside was to show what was to be inside of our hearts…… But our hearts were dead until…… we were raised in Christ Jesus …… by our faith.

This worship in Israel was a type and shadow of the coming revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ.

He was the Lamb slain and now by faith we apply His blood over us and- yes, in us… In us, when we drink His blood….. When we eat the Bread of Life, Jesus Christ, symbolized in the little piece of bread, we are partaking of HIM.

We do not only celebrate His dying and resurrection and reception into heaven, we are also partaking all of Him to be in us and us in Him.

We partake of His strength, His Truth, His Spirit, His character.

We now worship Him in Spirit  and Truth as written in John 3….… We can only truly worship Him by abiding in His Word, Jesus Christ, by Holy Spirit and as we do….. then, the transformation happens putting His Word on our hearts.   Did you ever come to a situation, and you stopped to think a minute and ZOOM- the Word of God comes to your mind and is the perfect solution and answer to the dilemma you were facing?   This is revelation of the Lord Jesus Christ being alive in you and written on your hearts…… This means we know Him- not just a memorization- but it is written and been experienced by us, His people, He is alive in us.

This living relationship with Holy Spirit is soo cool. We learn that our hearts are not far away but so close that we feel His breath. We are not running here and there, but can stop and talk to Him.  He is right there listening and He always answers.  He will answer our time of fellowship. Come on taste and see the Lord of hosts and the Lord God of creation and the Uncreated One is so good and exciting.  He never leaves us or forsakes us.

Do you partake?   He does not want us to celebrate His death and resurrection and reception into heaven as a ritual…… How boring that would be if we gathered with our family around a meal and it was only ritual but no talking or joking or just sharing our day…..He wants relationship……HE IS ALIVE!!!!

Romans 12:1-2 speaks today to us: I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service.

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of  your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

The above scripture was not if you feel like it or when ever you get around to it type command……

By our obedience, we get to learn about Him…… and His sacrifice of love pouring forth on us. We learn of His timing, His ways and His majesty…. We really learn that there is none like Him.

As written in  1 John 2:15-17,: Do not love the world or the things in the world. I f anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 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. And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.

Then, John helps us understand His purpose for us as written in 1 John 2:20-29: But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you know all things.

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.

Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is the antichrist who the Father and the Son. 

Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father either; he who acknowledges the Son has the Father also. 

Therefore let that abide in you which you heard from the beginning. If what you heard from the beginning abides in you, you also will abide in the Son and in the Father.

And this is the promise that He has promised us- eternal life.

These things I have written to you concerning those who try to deceive you.

But the anointing which you have received from Him abides in you, and you do not need that anyone teach you; but as the same anointing teaches you concerning all things, and is true, and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, you will abide in Him.

And now, little children, abide in Him, that when He appears, we may have confidence and not be ashamed before Him at His coming.

If you know that He is righteous, you know that every one who practices righteousness is born of Him.

Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, and we should be called the children of God!  Therefore the world does not know us, because it did not know Him.  Beloved, now we are the 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.

And everyone who has this hope in Him purifies Himself,  just as He is pure.

I pray that we really understand the call that He has called us to learn of the unsearchable riches of Christ….. The truth that the Uncreated One wants us to be with Him 24/7 and Him with us 24/7 is inconceivable but is Truth…. So do we partake or what?

I do not pray for these alone, but also for those who will believe in Me through their word; that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; and that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe You sent Me. and the glory who You gave Me I have given them, that they may be one just as We are one; I in them, and You in Me; that they may be made perfect in one, and that the world may know that You have sent Me, and have loved them as You have loved Me,  Jesus prayed after He had the Last Supper with His crew. Hey, do you think His prayer has been answered?

So, beloved, there are indescribable blessings to be explored and received from our God through His Son, Jesus Christ…… Our Lord…… Are we going to dig into His Deeper and Bigger Meal, or what?

Colossians 1:27 is our promise of  how we worship God now in Spirit and Truth: To them God willed to make known what are the riches of glory of this mystery among the Gentiles: which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.

Let’s pray:

May we be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; that you may walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God; strengthened with all might according to His glorious power, for all patience and longsuffering with joy; giving thanks to the Father who has qualified us to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in the light. He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love, whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins,                    ( Colossians 1:9-14).

Do we partake?

Amen and Amen!!

Selah!

As we are to have a restart, may it be a new holy restart.  We need God and His Spirit who dwells within us  to lead us into the best plan He has for us. May we take the next couple of days to turn to Him and see His plans for each of us to prosper.  He has great ideas and plans and strategies for each of us…. Let us partake!! He has it all mapped out, but we must be still, believe He is God and LISTEN! May we remember to give Him thanksgiving in keeping us safe and to lead us into this next stage of walking out His plan these coming days….. Hear this day as  He does speak to each of us……. Look up and believe He is here for us. Please let us look not to get things back to normal….. Let us allow Him to bring us to His plan which is greater and better.

SELAH!! SELAH!!

 

 

Once Upon In Time, In A Country Far Away, But Not Too Far, There Were….

There were millions of people walking through the wilderness in the middle east….. They had a leader who was called Moses.  Moses was known by God and man. God had met him in the wilderness tending sheep for forty years…. Then God instructed Moses to lead His millions of people from Egypt. He was to lead  them out of Egypt. They journeyed from Egypt to the land which God  had promised them generations ago.  This also took forty years.

God had instructed Moses to lead them a way so the people could learn about their God and His supply…..and His protection…..One condition was set by God:…..listen to My words and obey them.

So the journey was a long one. The people grumbled and complained against Moses and even God.  Now was it long because they grumbled and complained?  Just wondering….

God had supplied their water from a rock…… A trillion quail flew in and landed at their feet….. He even gave them something like a wafer every morning for their breakfast.  He gave them instructions on what they should and shouldn’t eat  for their own health protection……..

But they complained and spread contention through the camp against God and Moses……

One day, they really provoked God to anger….. He allowed serpents into the camp which bit the people…….They were dying from these serpents…..Let’s read what is written in Numbers 21-5-9: And the people spoke against God and Moses: Why have you brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? For there is no food or no water, and our souls loathe this worthless bread.

So the Lord sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and many of the people of Israel died.

Therefore the people came to Moses, and said, We have sinned, for we have spoken against the Lord and against you; pray to the Lord that He take away the serpents from us. So Moses prayed for the people.

Then the Lord said to Moses, make a fiery serpent, and set it on a pole; and it shall be that everyone who is bitten, when he looks at it. He shall live.

So Moses made a bronze serpent, and put it on a pole; and it was, if a serpent had bitten anyone, when he looked at the bronze serpent, he lived.

Did you know this symbol of the snake on a pole topped with wings  which represents medicine came from this? Isn’t that cool?

Paul admonishes us this day as when he sent this letter to the Corinthians:  1 Corinthians 10:1-14: Moreover, brethren, I do not want you to be unaware that all our fathers were under the cloud, all through the sea,

all were baptized into  Moses in the cloud and in the sea,

all ate the same spiritual food, and all drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them, and that Rock is Christ.

But with most of them God was not well pleased, for their bodies were scattered in the wilderness.

Now these things became our examples, to the intent that we should not lust after evil things as they also lusted. 

And do not become idolaters as were some of them.  As it is written, the people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.

Nor let us commit sexual immorality, as some of them did, and in one day twenty three thousand fell;

nor let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed by serpents;

nor complain, as some of them also complained, and were destroyed by the destroyer.

Now all these things happened to them as examples, and they were written for our admonition upon whom the end of  ages have come.

Therefore let him who thinks he stands take heed lest he fall.

No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but GOD is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation wll also make a way of escape that you may be able to bear it. 

Therefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry.

There was a day when a learned man named Nicodemus met with Jesus at night……. I call him Nic at night. Anyway, Nic had planned to ask many questions from  this Jesus of Nazareth.  Check out the chapter yourself in  the Gospel of John chapter 3……..Jesus’ reply in verses 3:3-21 : Jesus answered and said to him, Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

Nicodemus said to Him, how can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother’s womb and be born?

 Jesus answered, Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit he cannot enter the kingdom of God.

That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

Do not marvel that I said to you, You must be born again.

The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit.

Nicodemus answered and said to Him, How can these things be?

Jesus said to him, You are the teacher of Israel, and do not know these things?

Most assuredly, I say to you, We speak what We know and testify what We have seen, and you do not receive Our witness. 

If I have told you earthly things and you do not believe, how will you believe if I tell you heavenly things?

No one has ascended to heaven but He who came down from heaven, that is, the Son of Man who is in heaven. 

And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up, that who ever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life.

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world. but that the world through Him would be saved. 

He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the light, because their deeds were evil.

For every one practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed.

But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God.

 

I love that conversation.   Jesus spoke to an avid learned man of God and totally got Nicodemus confused with the Truth.   Jesus came to be lifted up on the cross because our God so loves this world…….

Jesus came to take our punishment of idolatry, complaining, striving and living as unloving beings towards God and our neighbor. Most of all taking our own living breath for granted.

 

Look at verse 14–And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so the Son of Man must be lifted up……    

He was lifted up on the cross at Calvary. The place of the skull…. Crucified to take our thoughts, deeds and actions that were against God and man for us…..

And as we look to Him on the cross, and believe, we shall not perish but have everlasting life because of this GREAT GOD/MAN- named Jesus Christ.

This is where the symbol of medicine has it’s origin…… May we know and believe by every stripe He took on our behalf, we are healed…….

AS written in: 1 Peter 2:23-25: who, when He was reviled, did not revile in return, when He suffered, He did not threaten, but committed Himself to Him who judges righteously;

who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness- by whose stripes we are healed.

For you were like sheep going astray, but  have now returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of our souls.

 

Our President and all his staff and the best doctors in the world , as well as, all our hospitals doctors and nurses and techs should be lifted up continuously in prayer for their sacrifice to help this country through this plague……

But I just wonder, if we all look to Him, who was lifted up on the cross with a crown of thorns and nails in His hands and feet  and slash from a sword on His side…….. If may be, we look to Him, who took all our sins on His shoulders so that  we may be healed and be in everlasting life, that the plague finds no empty host to attack.

Our God so loved this world in all it’s craziness and sent His Son to heal us and bring us into everlasting life today and tomorrow until He returns.  He knows our nature and made a way to escape the temptation of sinning against Him and ending in the lake of fire….. His Son, Jesus Christ, the King of kings and Lord of lords…..

I pray we all look to Him who now sits at the right hand of the Almighty, but He gives us grace to see His eyes looking down at you from the cross, with so much love that we melt at His gaze….. So if, we receive this grace this day from His Spirit, we then will be given more to see the King who has been King over our lives, even though we thought we were……. Oh, the Truth be revealed to our hearts as this next week draws nigh…. May we see the Son was and is and is to come…… So we may fear Him and see Him and bow to Him…..

Repent America and be saved and healed.   Pray to the Lord of hosts to free us from this plague…..   The burden on our President and all his staff is enormous, please intercede for them.  Our government and hospitals are doing everything they can, interecede for them…….

This is a God problem and He has given us the Solution….. His name is Jesus Christ.  May we think of our King and His blood that was shed before we complain or point fingers of judgment…….Who knows if we bow our knee to the King of glory- a vaccine will made visible.. Do you or I know what God may do if we really humble ourselves and turn to Him as a nation? Let us look to the One who has been lifted up and pray.

May our Mighty God give us eyes to see His Son who suffered for you and me……..May we really live this week coming as a holy week,  ( holy simply means set apart to and for Him alone) .  As we draw near to Him, it is written He will draw near us…… And then, – may we see the miracles of His life touch our hearts, our minds and our bodies.

 

May we seek His Truth, the Son of Man whom He sent to us.- There is not one righteous but Him. We thank God for His Son and His mighty Spirit of Grace touching each one now……

 

Let us bow our heads and knees to the Mighty of One, the Holy One that hears our cries.

Heavenly Father,

We thank you for our breath. We thank you for all You are and of Your great love.

We come to You, and repent. We turn from our wicked ways that are against You and Your word.

We apologize for our wicked hearts that do not want to be humble before You.

We ask for forgiveness of our actions and thoughts and disregard that are and were and will be against Your commands to love You with all we have and our neighbor as we love ourselves.

We believe that Your Son, Jesus Christ, took our iniquities and sins on Himself and received our punishment of death….. We believe and we will leave our life behind and grab hold to Your Everlasting Life. We ask Your Holy Spirit come now to dwell within us as as we believe we have been born again.

We ask Your Spirit as He comes to dwell within us and teach us Your ways…. Give us the Grace to live unto righteousness in all we do and say…. May we live for You and be living sacrifices unto You. May You be pleased by our faith as we learn all You have planned and have given us by Your Son.

In Jesus name, we ask this and thank You for Your hand leading us into everlasting life from this moment forward.

We love You and will worship You by our lives of love.

 

AMEN!!! AMEN!!

Happy Resurrection Day!!  May His grace permeate the hearts of every person in this world today…. Lord, I pray they see Your face and know Your hand of Love surrounds them.   Your perfect love casts out all our fear, so we come to learn and know Your never ending never failing love.

 

 

 

 

 

Some One Is Knocking At Your Door? You Going To Open It?

Ooops!  ! I think I meant knocking on your heart. Wait!  I am wrong…. Scripture reads!………..

The valley of decision is approaching everyone these days across the globe!   Our Lord and Savior is knocking on every door of every heart while we are waiting for the plague to die.  Hey, is He not the Resurrected One?  Hmmmm…..

Revelation 3:20: Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come to him and dine with him, and he with Me.

Are you going to let Him in? Are you going to let Him permeate your being?  What do you say?

But there is really more that He spoke to this era then the above scripture…… Let’s look at the whole story…. This is the last letter to the churches written by Jesus Christ  to the Laodicean church; Revelation 3: 14-22, And to the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write, These things says the Amen, the Faithful and True Witness, the Beginning of the creation of God:

I know your works, that you are neither cold or hot.

So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth.

Because you say, I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing- and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked- 

I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire, that you may be rich: and white garments, that you may be clothed, that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see. 

As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore be zealous and repent….

Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come IN TO him and dine with him and he with Me.

To him who overcomes I will grant to sit with Me on My throne, as I also overcome and sat down with My Father on His throne.

He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.

This may seem harsh to a very feeling world right now…….But He is the Truth.  Jesus Christ is the Way.   Jesus Christ is Life.  This is what He sees…… This is what HE SEES!!!! AGAIN< THIS IS WHAT HE SEES……  HE LOVES US AND THIS IS WHAT HE SEES.

All authority has been given to Him and by His name, every name will bow.  All authority has been given unto Him.  For us to see as He does read the be attitudes – Matthew 5-7.  Learn the way of His heart and then we understand how His ways are right and mankind are upside down to His.

There is one written in the Word who Jesus met and took the scales out his eyes so he was not blind. However, he could see but he saw not as Jesus did!…… He had a real GOD moment that lasted three days….. We have a lot longer to be in His presence and allow His work by His Spirit to work in us….. If we allow and admit we are seeking the horizontal fix instead of the vertical.  Check out Acts 9….. and see how He calls His own to hear His Voice.

People have and will always try to discredit the messenger, but their discredit does not ever change HIS WORD OF TRUTH.  The Word of God is the only thing that will last forever all else will pass away….. If you do not believe me, check out the Word of God yourself……So if all else will pass away….. Where are we to be?   In Him, the Word of God!  Do you not see?  He is the Beginning of God’s creation…… In Him, we abide and in Him is the secret place hidden from all ages except from ours….. He is our revealing Savior in us and through us, we live and move and have our being.

Do you see now?…….Do you see and believe?  Then leave the wide highway behind and walk in the narrow holy way in Him….. Don’t be concerned, Holy Spirit will show you His way.   But pick up your cross and come.  Are you ready?  I pray you do not hesitate and miss your Holy God moment that He has designed for you today….. Turn to see the Voice spoken to you today….. He is worth it all and He is beyond what we can hope or imagine….. He is beyond compare…… Come and let Him in and open your heart…. Come and dine with Him….. Come and learn to see as He does!

It is wise to allow Him in at this time while the world has a pause. It is our choice if it is holy or mundane.   He is waiting for us to callout to Him. He is there knocking….. Can you hear Him?   I hear His footsteps approaching….. May we be silent as we allow the Uncreated One in.

Families have Him in their center. Husbands and wives are gazing in understanding His Wisdom which He has bestowed upon them.  Children are seeing this Great Gentle Man who has eyes of fire and a love that penetrates deep into their heart……  There is no television show that compares to His presence.

Turn off the world and tune into Him today…. Open the door to His heart and learn of His love.

He is the Healer of the Nations because He is the Desire of the Nations.

Look to see His Voice today. Be set in His presence and truth today! He is the Desire of the Nations….. I pray He is your Desire today!  I pray you may know how deep and wide and long and high His love is for you this day….. Because this is Truth!

Selah!

Grace to you and peace from Him who is and who was and who is to come, and from the seven Spirits who are before the His throne, and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler over the kings of the earth. To Him who loved us and washed us from our sins in His own blood, and has made us kings and priests to His God and Father, to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.

Behold, He is coming with clouds, and every eye will see Him, even they who pierced Him. And all the tribes of the earth will mourn because of Him. Even so, Amen, ( Revelation 1:4-7).

 

SELAH!! SELAH!!
