GOD’S WORD IS THE ABSOLUTE TRUTH

So Study God’s Word
Hosea 4:6 says,
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because you have rejected knowledge…
Proverb 15:5 puts it this way,
A fool despises (hates) his father’s (GOD) instruction…
•God is our Heavenly Father, and the Bible His Holy Word is His instructions to us.
•When we DO NOT study God’s Word we are indirectly despising, hating and rejecting our Heavenly Father’s instructions.
•Studying the Word of God is not a suggestion or option. It’s a commandment that we obey out of love for the Lord.
Jesus said in John 14:15 If all of you love me, keep my commandments, and in Luke 6:46 He also said “why all of you call me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?”
•You must Continue to make God’s Word your daily study.

Study God’s Word
(Hebrews 5:12-14 AMP)
For even though by this time you ought to be teaching others, you actually need someone to teach you over again the very first principles of God’s Word. You have come to need milk, not solid food. For everyone who continues to feed on milk is obviously inexperienced and unskilled in the doctrine of righteousness (of conformity to the divine will in purpose, thought, and action), for he is a mere infant [not able to talk yet]!
But solid food is for full-grown men, for those whose senses and mental faculties are trained by practice to discriminate and distinguish between what is morally good and noble and what is evil and contrary either to divine or human law.
•Ignorance to God’s Word is a liability and disadvantageous.
•The Word of God is the manual to live the life of God. As food is to your physical body so is the Word of God to your life, spirit, soul and mind.
•Make God’s Word your daily study.
+++Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!

BY JESUS’S STRIPES YOU ARE HEALED 

“For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. For it is written: “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, And bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.” Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? For since, in the wisdom of God, the world through wisdom did not know God, it pleased God through the foolishness of the message preached to save those who believe. For Jews request a sign, and Greeks seek after wisdom; but we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews a stumbling block and to the Greeks foolishness, but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men”. (1 Corinthians 1:18-25).

LISTEN

God has your back. He never renege on any of His promises. He promised never to leave you or forsake you. Believe in God’s words. He says in Isaiah 41:10 ,

” So do not fear for I am with you. Do not be dismayed for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with My righteous right hand “.( Psalm 30:2).

“Lord my God, I called to You for help and You healed me.

Isaiah 53:4-5, “Surely He took up our pain and bore our suffering, yet we considered Him punished by God. Stricken by Him and afflicted. But He was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on Him, and by His wounds we are healed.”

Psalm 41:2-3, “the Lord protects and preserves them they are counted among the blessed in the land; He does not give them over to the desires of their foes.The Lord “sustains” them on their sick bed, and restores them from their bed of illness.”

Psalm 147:3, “He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds. ” My friends repeat this after me and say this every chance you get. “Heal me, Lord and I will be healed; save me Lord and I will be saved, for You are the one I will praise.

” (Jeremiah 17:14). Finally,Our dear Jesus Christ will answer your prayer by saying, “Daughter or son,your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be freed from your suffering.” (Mark 5:34) these are not my words. I am only a vessel carrying His message. So we can surely and confidently say that ,.”by His stripes you are healed blessings and love always.

ULTIMATE POWER

+You are powered and empowered by God.

Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you. Nevertheless do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rather rejoice because your names are written in heaven.”(Luke 10:19‭-‬20 NKJV)

PERFECT EXAMPLE

“But when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks and laid them on the fire, a viper came out because of the heat, and fastened on his hand. So when the natives saw the creature hanging from his hand, they said to one another, “No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he has escaped the sea, yet justice does not allow to live.”

BUT HE SHOOK OFF THE CREATURE INTO THE FIRE AND SUFFERED NO HARM. However, they were expecting that he would swell up or suddenly fall down dead. But after they had looked for a long time and saw no harm come to him, they changed their minds and said that he was a god.”(Acts 28:3‭-‬6 NKJV).

But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.(John 1:12‭-‬13 KJV)


Ephesians 3:20
Now unto Him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the POWER that works in us…
•Remember the omnipotent, miraculous, supernatural, unlimited and inexhaustible Power of God works in us, through us and for us.
•God the Holy Spirit in us produces the Power that works in us.
• This power is to be exercised and used against sickness, disease, poverty, the devil and demons and the list goes on. For examples on the demonstration of the Power of God please read the Four Gospels and the Book of Acts. You will see the Master (Jesus) in action with His Apostles and Disciples. We are a His Disciples.
•From the very beginning God gave man dominion (authority & Power) over all the earth, Genesis 1:26 & 28.
•Man’s failure to exercise this awesome Power has caused him ALL his troubles, and some of us ignorantly blame God for our troubles.
•For some of us let’s stay on track. For others let’s get back on track, and for all of us let’s live this life of Power that we have of God through our Lord Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit.
+++Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!

FAITH

FAITH is a Spiritual Activity
Mark 11:22
And Jesus answering says unto them, Have faith in God.

In Psalm 27:13 David said:
I had fainted, unless I had BELIEVE TO SEE the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.
•When it comes to God, His Word, and His Kingdom we must FIRST BELIEVE BEFORE WE CAN SEE AND RECEIVE.
•Our FAITH in God becomes the things we are believing God for until those things are manifested or materialized.
•By FAITH we see and receive the promises of God.
Hebrews 11:1
FAITH is the SUBSTANCE of things HOPES for, the EVIDENCE of things NOT SEEN.
•Let your faith in God be your daily exercise.

•Christ in you is always greater than all that you will ever go through.
Romans 8:33-35
Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God’s elect? It is God who justifies.
Who is he that condemns?
•The devil will try but he has no power to condemn you. Only God does and God will never condemn you. There is therefore now no condemnation to then who are in Christ Jesus…
Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?
•No one can, but the devil is dumb enough to try.
• The devil will often try to test you in many different ways to see where he can enter into your life. The devil is all about lying, stealing, killing and destroying.
•But thanks be unto God that Jesus came into our lives that we might have the good life and have it more abundantly.
Romans 8:31
What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? (No one!)
•The devil is defeated and he can never come out of his defeat.
•Yes! Through the redemptive work of Christ the devil is permanently defeated.
+++Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!

LUST

“Where do wars and fights come from among you? Do they not come from your desires for pleasure that war in your members? You lust and do not have. You murder and covet and cannot obtain. You fight and war. Yet you do not have because you do not ask. You ask and do not receive, because you ask amiss, that you may spend it on your pleasures. Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God. Or do you think that the Scripture says in vain, “The Spirit who dwells in us yearns jealously”? But He gives more grace. Therefore He says: “God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble.” Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded. Lament and mourn and weep! Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to gloom. Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up”. (
James 4:1‭-‬10 NKJV).

“Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you. But you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God. Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ and make them members of a harlot? Certainly not! Or do you not know that he who is joined to a harlot is one body with her? For “the two,” He says, “shall become one flesh.” But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with Him. Flee sexual immorality. Every sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body. Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own? For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s “.(I Corinthians 6:9‭-‬11‭, ‬15‭-‬20 NKJV).

“…according to the eternal purpose which He accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord, in whom we have boldness and access with confidence through faith in Him. Therefore I ask that you do not lose heart at my tribulations for you, which is your glory. For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height— to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God. NOW TO HIM WHO IS ABLE TO DO EXCEEDINGLY ABUNDANTLY ABOVE ALL THAT WE ASK OR THINK, ACCORDING TO THE POWER THAT WORKS IN US, TO HIM BE GLORY IN THE CHURCH BY CHRIST JESUS to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.
(Ephesians 3:11‭-‬21 NKJV).

Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.
[Jude 1:24‭-‬25 NKJV].

CONSIDER YOUR WAYS

The closer we get to God the more Satan tries to steal our soul. Satan knows,that his days are numbered ,and is pouring more and more evil temptations into this already sinful world.

We know that God is our shield, our rock, our tower of strength. Fight Satan as Jesus did in the desert using scripture. Remember that Satan was the most beautiful of Gods angels, until he decided he wanted to be God.

LISTEN

Hell was made for Satan and his fallen angels not for us. We have a choice to follow God or Satan. Eternal life in heaven or damnarion in hell.

Because of one man Adam we are all born with sin and are free to choose our own way to live. “He who lives in us is stronger then he who rules the earth.” We are either with God or against him.

Be a blessing to yourself,and serve God. All things are possible with God and he brings all things together for good. Lets decide to serve our King of KINGS!

You meet him who rejoices and does righteousness, Who remembers You in Your ways. You are indeed angry, for we have sinned— In these ways we continue; And we need to be saved. But we are all like an unclean thing, And all our righteousnesses are like filthy rags; We all fade as a leaf, And our iniquities, like the wind, Have taken us away. And there is no one who calls on Your name, Who stirs himself up to take hold of You; For You have hidden Your face from us, And have consumed us because of our iniquities.

But now, O Lord , You are our Father; We are the clay, and You our potter; And all we are the work of Your hand. Do not be furious, O Lord , Nor remember iniquity forever; Indeed, please look—we all are Your people!
[Isaiah 64:5-9]

“For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways,” says the Lord . “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts than your thoughts.( Isaiah 55:8-9)

Now therefore, thus says the Lord of hosts: “Consider your ways! “You have sown much, and bring in little; You eat, but do not have enough; You drink, but you are not filled with drink; You clothe yourselves, but no one is warm; And he who earns wages, Earns wages to put into a bag with holes.” Thus says the Lord of hosts: “Consider your ways! Go up to the mountains and bring wood and build the temple, that I may take pleasure in it and be glorified,” says the Lord .
{ Haggai 1:5-8 }

“See, I have set before you today life and good, death and evil, in that I command you today to love the Lord your God, to walk in His ways, and to keep His commandments, His statutes, and His judgments, that you may live and multiply; and the Lord your God will bless you in the land which you go to possess. But if your heart turns away so that you do not hear, and are drawn away, and worship other gods and serve them, I announce to you today that you shall surely perish; you shall not prolong your days in the land which you cross over the Jordan to go in and possess. I call heaven and earth as witnesses today against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing; therefore choose life, that both you and your descendants may live; that you may love the Lord your God, that you may obey His voice, and that you may cling to Him, for He is your life and the length of your days; and that you may dwell in the land which the Lord swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give them.”
[Deuteronomy 30:15-20]

THIS IS A WARNING:
For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and fiery indignation which will devour the adversaries. Anyone who has rejected Moses’ law dies without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. Of how much worse punishment, do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified a common thing, and insulted the Spirit of grace? For we know Him who said, “Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,” says the Lord. And again, “The Lord will judge His people.” It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
{Hebrews 10:26-31}

how shall we escape if we neglect so great a salvation, which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed to us by those who heard Him, God also bearing witness both with signs and wonders, with various miracles, and gifts of the Holy Spirit, according to His own will?
{Hebrews 2:3-4}

TRUST GOD

++Let Go and Trust God++
•Have you ever had something to say to someone and wanted to say it the right way, at the right time, but you were also angry with the person?
•Here are some fundamental principles of scripture that will help you.
James 1:19-20
Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath, For the wrath of man works not the righteousness of God.
Ephesians 4:26
Be all of you angry, and sin not…
Proverbs 15:1-2
A soft answer turns away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger. The tongue of the wise uses knowledge aright…
James 3:2
…If any man offend not in word, the same is a perfect man…
Ecclesiastes 7:9
Be not hasty in your spirit to be angry: for anger rests in the bosom of fools.
•Always be willing to let the anger go, trust God and communicate in love.
Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!

GOD PROVIDES

Deuteronomy 28:1-9
“Now it shall come to pass, if you diligently obey the voice of the Lord your God, to observe carefully all His commandments which I command you today, that the Lord your God will set you high above all nations of the earth. And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you, because you obey the voice of the Lord your God: “Blessed shall you be in the city, and blessed shall you be in the country. “Blessed shall be the fruit of your body, the produce of your ground and the increase of your herds, the increase of your cattle and the offspring of your flocks. “Blessed shall be your basket and your kneading bowl. “Blessed shall you be when you come in, and blessed shall you be when you go out. “The Lord will cause your enemies who rise against you to be defeated before your face; they shall come out against you one way and flee before you seven ways. “The Lord will command the blessing on you in your storehouses and in all to which you set your hand, and He will bless you in the land which the Lord your God is giving you. “The Lord will establish you as a holy people to Himself, just as He has sworn to you, if you keep the commandments of the Lord your God and walk in His ways.

“Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of 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 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 godliness, to godliness 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 the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ”.(II Peter 1:2‭-‬11 NKJV).


In Matthew 6:33, God says…..
But seek you first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and ALL THESE THINGS shall be added unto you.
Psalm 23:6
Surely GOODNESS and MERCY shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.
+May the promises of these be your everyday REALITIES in the Almighty Name of Jesus Christ. Amen!
•Continue to let the WORD of God be the standard for our lives. Always LOVING others like Christ Jesus loves us while keeping our Faith, Trust and Confidence in Him.
•BLESSED we are and BLESSED we will always be and to God be all the GLORY. Amen!!!

CONFESSION

A SINNERS PRAYER

Remember we all have sinned,and fall short of the glory of God. But God said,”If we confess our sins,He is faithful and just, to forgive us, and cleanse us from all unrighteousness “.(1 John 1:9).

“If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land”.(II Chronicles 7:14 NKJV)

King David’s repentance prayer in Psalms 51:1-10 goes like this:
“Have mercy upon me, O God, According to Your lovingkindness; According to the multitude of Your tender mercies, Blot out my transgressions. Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity, And cleanse me from my sin. For I acknowledge my transgressions, And my sin is always before me. Against You, You only, have I sinned, And done this evil in Your sight— That You may be found just when You speak, And blameless when You judge. Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity, And in sin my mother conceived me. Behold, You desire truth in the inward parts, And in the hidden part You will make me to know wisdom. Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; Wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow. Make me hear joy and gladness, That the bones You have broken may rejoice. Hide Your face from my sins, And blot out all my iniquities. Create in me a clean heart, O God, And renew a steadfast spirit within me”.

THEREFORE,LET THE HOLY SPIRIT ,WHO LIVES IN YOU, SPEAK THROUGH YOU
Matthew 10:19-20…take no thought how or what all of you shall speak: for it shall be given you in that same hour what all of you shall speak.
For it is not all of you that speak, but the Spirit of your Father which speaks in you.
Luke 21:14-15
Settle it therefore in your hearts, NOT to meditate before what all of you shall answer:
For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all of your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist.
•Remember this. God by His Holy Spirit works in you, through you and for you.
++Let Go and Trust God++
Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!

YOU ARE FREE

+++Freedom In Christ+++

God does not remind you or punish you for your past sin! Do not allow past sin to hinder your faith in God or your love for people.

Galatians 5:1
Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ has made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.
Galatians 5:1 AMP
IN [this] freedom Christ has made us free [and completely liberated us]; stand fast then, and do not be hampered and held ensnared and submit again to a yoke of slavery [which you have once put off].
•In Christ Jesus we are totally free spirit, soul, mind and body, past, present and future.
•In Christ Jesus we are free from the world and the devil. There is absolutely nothing in this world that should keep up down.
•You may have gotten knock down with sickness, disease, financial hardship or bad relationships but you don’t have to stay down.
•I command you in The Name of Jesus! Get up! and stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ has made us free. For who the the Son set free is free indeed.
