REACH

Reach out and touch someone, encourage someone, pray for someone, help someone today, so that we can make this world a better place. Sometimes just a smile or a kind word is worth more than money. People have gotten so selfish these days nobody wants to help anyone in any form or fashion. However, everyone reaches that place in their life where money can’t buy happiness nor contentment, so you have to make that critical decision as to who or what can make you happy and content; who can give you that peace that surpasses all understanding, that when everything is going buck wild, you are just calm. There is only one person I know that gives you that kind of peace in the middle of a crisis, and that person is God.

Everyone reaches that point in their life, where you have to make that crucial decision to serve God with all your heart, soul, and might; Because you have never met anyone who could love you any sweeter or better, after you have messed up so many times. This should propel  you to want to share with people the joys, thrills, and agonies of having someone there with you and for you at all times. Once people see the joy and peace that you display as a child of God they will want to know what makes you so joyful and peaceful.  1 Peter 3:15 tells us to sanctify the Lord God in our hearts and be ready always to give an answer to every man who asked you a reason of the hope that is in you. Jesus never chased anyone down and tried to force Himself on anyone or force them to accept His Father because they had a choice.

In Matthew 28:18-20, He tells us to go out and teach all nations, and baptize them in the Name of the trinity (Father, Son, Holy Spirit), and teach  them to observe all  things that He commands us, and the assurance that He will be with us. This simply means  that  if you are not ashamed of the gospel of Christ which is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes as Romans 1:16 tells us, then the Gospel of Christ is not a secret to keep to ourselves, and it will be the only gossip you spread that will not hurt someone but save them. The thing is we are living in the last days and Acts 1:7-8 tells us, that it’s none of our business or concern the time or seasons which God has put in His own authority, because when we receive the Holy Spirit, we will receive power, to be His witness, and our fear will diminish, since we can now tread on serpents, scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing can hurt us as Luke 10:19 reminds us.

When we accept Christ we are new creatures who obey God and live for God, so we do as Romans 12:1-2 and 1 Corinthians 6:19-20, and present our bodies as a living sacrifice that is Holy and acceptable unto God, because we no longer own ourself we now belong to God, who bought us with a price. Therefore, it’s no longer a secret what God can do, so it’s our duty to let the world know that when we call on the name of the Lord He will save you. However, Romans 10:13-15 says, How will people call on Him, know or believe Him if they don’t know Him,  that’s why our lives must show it, and we have to teach and preach the Gospel of Christ.

However, to teach and preach we must do as 2 Timothy 2:15 tells us, to study to show ourselves approved unto God, so that we are good soldiers in the army of the Lord unashamed and rightly dividing the word of truth. Since we are working for Him we have to hide His word in our hearts to keep us from sinning against Him this is seen in Psalms 119:11. Even though the lesson tries to show us that millions of people don’t know Jesus Christ, I believe the number is less, because with todays advanced technology, more people are reached on a daily basis, it’s just that the enemy has increase their appetite for sin, and has covered their faces with veils so that they don’t hear, see or care.

God has never forced His will or choice on us, and there is no excuse that they have not heard the word or seen His wonderful creation. Why are we limiting God as if He is not powerful enough to reach who He wants to reach and save who He wants to. Isaiah 59:1-2 tells us that the Lord’s hand is not shortened, that it cannot save, neither His ear heavy, that it cannot hear… Which means they will get the word one way or another. The God I serve is limitless and all-powerful, full of mercy, and grace. Anyone who dies not knowing God is not from lack of Him trying, because He will send you to someone or someone to you. So when He sends someone to me or me to them I am ready to do His will, but I will not force them, because God nor Jesus never forced anyone to do anything.

If you have never experienced that peace and tranquility that only God  can give through His only begotten Son Jesus Christ, I would strongly recommend that you try Him. Don’t knock Him until you try Him, trust Him, depend on Him, and build all your hopes on Him, He has never failed me yet, and if anyone says He has failed them it’s because they didn’t stick to the plans He laid out for them. How many people has tried Him then followed their own selfish desires, failed and  then blamed God. When you get to know God and obey His word then you will know without a shadow of a doubt that He never fails or disappoint anyone, He does what He promises to do as long as you do what you promise Him to do.

SEEKING PERFECTION

Wouldn’t you just love for everything and everyone to be perfect as you like? Does it mean that you are selfish? Or are you, just like your Heavenly Father who gives us the best and requires the best from us. So, why should we settle for less when James 1:17 tells us that, “Every good and perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.” Therefore, we see that God’s gifts are good and perfect. If I don’t settle for less, and if I am unsatisfied with imperfection, it does not make me bad; It’s just because I am made in the Image and likeness of my Heavenly Father therefore I adopt His charactereristics and seek the best.

In seeking perfection, it means we have to try to be perfect in everything we do or say. For example, instead of doing bad we do good, instead of hate we love, instead of  war we seek peace, and the list goes on. However, to be perfect, we must emulate the only perfect example that was given to us by God and that was His only begotten Son Jesus Christ. God wants us to be perfect, that’s why Ephesians 4:11-13 reads, “And he gave some, apostles; and some prophets; and some evangelist; and some pastors and teachers; For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ; Till we come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ.”

Perfection is a goal we seek to achieve or reach before Jesus returns to redeem us or we die. How do we acquire perfection or strive towards it?  It requires Holiness and righteousness, which are two of the main ingredients to accomplish this task, along with complete faith and trust in God, through His Son Jesus Christ. There are three stages of perfection, the first is positional perfection, which every believer who accepts Jesus Christ has, as we see in Hebrews 10:14-19, “For by a single offering He has forever completely cleansed and perfected those who are consecrated and made Holy; And also the Holy Spirit adds His testimony to us (in confirmation of this)…For having said, this is the agreement (testament, covenant) that I will set up and conclude with them after those days, says the Lord: I will imprint My laws upon their hearts, and I will inscribe them on their minds (on their inmost thoughts and understanding), He then goes on to say, And their sins and their lawbreaking I will remember no more. Now where there is absolute remission (forgiveness and cancellation of the penalty) of these (sins and lawbreaking), there is no longer any offering made to atone for sin. Therefore, brethren, since we have full freedom and confidence to enter into the (Holy of) Holies (by the power and virtue) in the blood of Jesus.”

Then we have Relative perfection, which is based on spiritual maturity, where as Paul says in Philippians 3:13- 14, “Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehend; but one thing I do, forgetting  those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead; I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.”

As a mature Christian, we should do the will of God (most of them are laid out in the ten commandments), and display Godly traits like  love, purity, holiness, patience, and everything that is Godly. Then we have the Ultimate perfection which is the perfection of Spirit, soul, and body which is knowing Christ to the extent that you know Him (Jesus) and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death, if by any means, I may attain to the resurrection from the dead. Not that I have already attained, or am already perfected; but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also lay hold of me, as Paul said in Philippians 3:10-12. For the child of God, the moral perfection of God is the absolute standard of conduct to aim for, hard as it is to attain, but this is something worth dying to accomplish.

Yes, we all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, but we are justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, whom God set forth as a propitiation by His blood, through faith, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forberance God had passed over the sins that were previously committed, to demonstrate at the present time His righteousness, that He might be just, and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus (Romans 3:23-26). The question is, am I perfect? No, but I am striving to be. How about you? Have you accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior?

All glory, honor, praise and thanks go to God for using me to deliver this message. I pray that He will give all who read this message the spiritual gifts necessary to comprehend and act upon His word. I exercise my power and authority in the name of Jesus to bind every tactic of the enemy, that will try to stop, hinder, or prevent this word from reaching its intended people. I loose the Holy Spirit and the Heavenly angels to secure this word so that it reaches its intended people, according to Matthew 16:19 and Luke 10:19 in the omnipotent name of Jesus, Amen.

SPIRITUAL EMPOWERING

“God’s purpose was to show His wisdom in all its rich variety to all the rulers and authorities in the heavenly realms. They will see this when Jews and Gentiles are joined together in His church; This was His plan from all eternity and it has now been carried out through Christ Jesus our Lord. Because of Christ and our faith in Him, we can now come fearlessly into God’s presence, assured of His glad welcome…

“When I think of the wisdom and scope of God’s plan, I fall to my knee and pray to the Father, the Creator of everything in heaven and on earth. I pray that from His glorious, unlimited resources He will give you mighty inner strength through His Holy Spirit. And I pray that Christ will be more and more at home in your hearts as you trust in Him. May your roots go down deep into the soil of God’s marvelous love, and may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep His love really is.

May you experience the love of Christ, though it is so great you will never fully understand it. Then you will be filled with the fullness of life and power that comes from God. Now glory be to God! By His mighty power at work within us, He is able to accomplish infinitely more than we would ever dare to ask or hope. May He be given glory in the church, and in Christ Jesus forever and ever through endless ages. Amen.” EPHESIANS 3:10-21

Now unto Him who is able to keep us from falling, and to present us faultless before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, to Him who is Immortal and Invisible, the only wise God, our Savior, be glory, praise, honor, and thanks. In Jesus name, Amen.

SO NEAR, YET SO FAR

Most people think they are so near to God, yet they are so far away; while others think that they are so good, that their place in Heaven is secured. Did you know that confession is really good for the soul? Let me remind you of what God says in the Bible, “Wherefore, let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.” – 1 Corinthians 10:12 Not everyone who claims to be religious is going to heaven because they are not living right, so God’s message is, “I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot; I would thou wert cold or hot. So then, because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spew thee out of my mouth. Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing, and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind and naked,” – Revelation 3:15-17 Is this you? So near, yet so far away.

One thing you must realize is that when we don’t confess our sins and turn from our wicked and evil ways, you especially Christians you become weak and miserable, then your bones grow old through groaning all day long, and the longer you wait to confess, your burdens and stress of unconfessed sins will get heavier, because you keep on adding to it, and your strength evaporates like water, instead of just confessing and erasing it all. God says, in 1 John 1:9, “If we confess our sins, He is faithful, and just to forgive us and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” Why should you confess and change? God does not work with filthy and unclean people, because He is Holy.

Listen to what He says in Isaiah 64:6-7, “But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousness are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf, and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away, and there is none that calleth upon thy name, that stirreth up himself to take hold of thee; for thou hast hidden thy face from us, and hath consumed us, because of our iniquities. But now, O Lord, thou art our Father; we are the clay, and thou our potter, and we all are the work of thy hand. Be not exceedingly angry, O Lord, neither remember our iniquity forever; behold, see, we beseech thee, we are all thy people.”   Are you one of the ones who thinks you are so near, yet far from God? Then it’s time to change your status.

They say confession is good for the soul. This is so true, because, when you can come to the full realization that you can’t hide anything from God, and start confessing your sins instead of trying to hide them, then you will be in right standing and on good terms with God. God knows all the skeletons in your closet, so you better confess and clear it out, before the people you don’t want to know finds them. Confess your sins so God can dump them in the sea of forgetfulness, and you can proudly say, “There is, therefore, now no condemnation to them who are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.” – Romans 8:1 Can you say that? Or are you still so near but far away? It’s time to get it right, we are living in the last days. The perilous times are upon us, read  2 Timothy 3:1.

“Seek the Lord while He may be found, call ye upon Him while He is near; let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts, and let him return unto the Lord, and He will have mercy upon him; and to our God for He will abundantly pardon.” – Isaiah 55:6-7 “Many are the afflictions of the righteous; but the Lord delivereth him out of them all” – Psalm 34 :19 Are you in that category or far from it? Do you think you are close to God, yet your actions put you at a distance? Then change all that today. Go to the top of this blog, and click on to the salvation page, then follow the instructions. Then, instead of being far, you can be close.

To God be the glory, praise, honor and thanks for using me to inform you this day. May His Holy Spirit give you the necessary tools needed to grasp and act on His words. And I by the power given to me in Matthew 18:18 and Luke 10:19, I bind the hand of the enemy and its forces, who try to steal this word, and blind your eyes, and harden your heart from receiving this truth and acting upon it. I ask God, the Father of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, to loose the Holy Spirit and the Heavenly angels to secure this word so that it reaches its intended people, according to Matthew 16:19 and Luke 10:19 in the omnipotent name of Jesus, Amen.

BE CAREFUL

Be careful of people who come into your life who think they have all the right answers to liberate you from all your problems, yet they themselves are not liberated. What works for you might not necessarily work for me, because God made us all uniquely different. The things I go through may kill you or the things you endure may kill me, but God tells each and every one of us individually that His grace is sufficient and His strength is made perfect in our weakness (2 Corinthians 12:9). Why people like to play the role of God, just doesn’t make any sence. You can’t pull no one out of their mess, only God can, and all they have to do is ask Him, and go relax, because when you least expect it, God will pull you out.

When we look at the above scripture it did not say your friends grace, and strength, nor your parents, neither your spouse, or even the psychologists strength, it says, “And He said unto me,  My grace is sufficient for thee; for My strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly, therefore, will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore, I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ’s sake; for when I am weak, then I am strong.” The Lord has armed us with strength for the battle, and have subdued those who rose up against us (Psalms 18:39).

However, the most important thing to remember is that the battle is not ours it is the Lord’s (2 Chronicles 20:15). Don’t ever forget that because of Jesus we are more than conquerors, as we see in Romans 8:35-39, “What shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written, for thy sake we are killed all day long; we are accounted as sheep, for the slaughter, nay, in  all these things we are more than conquerors through Him that love us. For I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come; Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

Don’t allow people who don’t have a righteous relationship with God to even whisper in your ears, because that spirit is not of God, so it’s intention is to deceive you, and put you in a situation worse off than where you are. If you read your Bible you will find all the answers you need on life or about life and every circumstance. “For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. For you have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but you have received the spirit of adoption, whereby we cry Abba Father. The Spirit Himself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God; and if children, then heirs— heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ — if so be that we suffer with Him, that we may be also glorified together. For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worth to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.” – Romans 8:14-18

Would you like to receive Jesus and confess Him as Lord? If so, just go to the top of this blog, click on to the salvation page, and follow the instructions.

To God be the glory, praise, honor and thanks for using me to inform you this day. May His Holy Spirit give you the necessary tools needed to grasp and act on His words. And I by the power given to me in Matthew 18:18 and Luke 10:19, I bind the hand of the enemy and its forces, who try to steal this word, and blind your eyes, and harden your heart from receiving this truth and acting upon it. I ask God, the Father of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, to loose the Holy Spirit and the Heavenly angels to secure this word so that it reaches its intended people, according to Matthew 16:19 and Luke 10:19 in the omnipotent name of Jesus, Amen.

YOUR DESIRES

You can have whatever your heart desires, regardless of what your circumstances are. The question is: Are you willing to invest the time, and effort that is required to get what your heart desires? Do you have the necessary faith, commitment, and patience to see your desires manifested? God says, you can have whatever your heart desires, do you believe it? Then it’s settled. So claim it and receive it. God’s word says,” Delight thyself also  in the Lord, and He shall give you the desires of your heart.” However, to receive the desires of your heart, you must  “Commit your way to the Lord, trust also in Him, and He shall bring it to pass” (Psalms 37 :4-5). How do you expect to get your hearts desires, if you do not commit your way unto Him, remember His ways are not like ours as, He distinctively points that out to us in  Isaiah 55:8-9.

To receive the desires of your heart you must have faith, trust, and confidence in the only God, who is the giver of your heart desires and more. Because, it is written in the contract, called the  Holy Bible, which in  Hebrews 11:6 tells us, “But without faith it is impossible to please Him; for he that cometh to God, must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him.” And if you are still not convinced then let me take you to Matthew 6:33, which says,”But seek ye first the Kingdom of God, and His righteousness, and all these things (your desires) shall be added unto you.” Do you still want your hearts desires? Then that’s a few of the rules and regulations you have to follow. You didn’t for one minute think you were going to get it without earning it, did you?

People don’t want to hear the level of commitment and sacrifice it takes to get your heart desires. But you will get them as long as it’s in accordance with God’s plans and will for your life, because He tells us in Jeremiah 29:11-13, “For  I know the thoughts that I think towards you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you, and ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.”  Did you really expect to benefit or be the recipient of God’s good and perfect gifts, without being committed or faithful to Him, without even acknowledging His existence, His power and presence?

To get your hearts desires you must, present your bodies as a living sacrifice, Holy, and acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service; And be not conformed to this world, but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove, what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect will of God, this is written in Romans 12:1-2. What are your true desires? Is it as Colossians 3:1-6 states, “If ye, then, be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth….Mortify, therefore your members which are upon the earth: fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil desire, and covetousness (which is idolatry). For which things the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience.” Do you love the things of the world more than you love God?

“Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world the love of the father is not in him; For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the father, but is of the world.” 1 John 2: 15 -16. We have to abide by God’s commandments in Hebrews 13:5, which tells us, “Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have.” Do you have what you need, yet you are greedy for more? Then your heart desires will not be met. So let’s be obedient to God’s word and set our hearts on the treasures above, because if you want the earthly things more than the heavenly things then, the desires of your heart will never be met. You can change all that by going to the top of this blog, clicking on to the salvation page, and following the instructions, and make sure that Eternal Life through Jesus Christ is the top desire of your heart.

The more you praise, worship and thank God, the better your chances, of having the desires of your heart, because you have made Him your desire, He will fulfil His promises of rewarding you, through the acceptance and acknowledgement of His only begotten Son, you have nothing to lose but plenty to gain when you accept Jesus Christ. I give God all the glory, praise, honor and thanks for using me to deliver this message, to His children, I pray that this word, which is quick and powerful will destroy, and bind every hindrance and plot of the enemy of this word from reaching its intended people and I ask God, the Father of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, to loose the Holy Spirit to deliver this word and all the others that is of God, to its intended people in the omnipotent Name  of Jesus Christ. Amen.

CAN YOU FOLLOW DIRECTIONS?

Can you really follow directions? Whose directions are you following? Let me simplify it for those who can’t and those who think they can follow. There is Mapquest, Google and God, and still, most people find it very difficult to follow directions. Even with life and death situations, they like to follow their gut or instinct even their so-called intellect, which nine times out of ten leads them in the wrong direction, or down the wrong path. We have a book full of directions and most people don’t read it, while others read it and don’t follow or obey its directions and instructions. It’s like a navigation system telling you to go right and you go left, then you wonder why you are lost. To live in this world with its ups and downs, wars, and all kinds of sins we do need a navigator to lead and direct us to God and Jesus was the one.

The Holy Bible is full of directions on everything in life, yet most people don’t acknowledge it, don’t read it and worst of all they don’t obey it. The only book in the world that is full of wisdom, knowledge and understanding we refuse to read it, that’s why God told Hosea that people are destroyed because of lack of knowledge (Hosea 4:6). The  Bible is the unadulterated word of God, created to direct us to His truth, it was not altered, even though men try to come up with all types of disputes, and fallacies because the devil prompt them to cause confusion and division so they can’t see the truth. One person wanted to prove to me that Jesus was black, my answer to him was what difference does it make, what color He was, no other person made the sacrifice on the cross, but Him, and He came and died for everyone, and give us an opportunity to be right with God. Jesus did not come to call the righteous and the know it all, but sinners to repentance (Luke 5:32).

Lets get back to directions and following them. It says in the Bible that, A man’s heart plans his way, but the Lord directs his steps (Proverbs 16:9). So why are you going ahead with your plans? What’s God’s plans?  Only God knows where you are going, so you better ask Him first, before you make a move. The truth and fact of the matter is that, the steps of the Godly are directed by the Lord and He delights in every detail of their lives, and even if they stumble they will not fall, for the Lord holds them by the hand (Psalms 37:23-24). He also tells us in Proverbs 3:5-6, that we should, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your path.” That sounds like some solid and sound directions to me, which leads me to ask, why aren’t you following them?

Why are we getting lost and going down the wrong path? Is it because we are following man’s direction instead of God’s. Long before there was a road map, Mapquest, Google, and navigational systems there was the Bible, and if we allow God’s word to be a lamp to our feet and a light to our path (Psalms 119:105), we will never be lost again if we allow God’s proven navigational system to guide us. If God didn’t show you where to go, and where are you going, then to obey Him is better than sacrificing your life to the lost department. We have a whole lot of witnesses who were God directed in Hebrews 11. So why are we going in the wrong directions? Is it because we have taken our eyes off of our creator to follow our own lust? Are we distracted? Have we lost complete focus of the future? Are we following and running after the things He created, instead of following His direction?

Hebrews 12:1-2 advises us, “Wherefore, seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.” 

Would you like to receive Jesus and confess Him as Lord? If so, just go to the top of this blog, click on to the salvation page, and follow the instructions.

To God be the glory, praise, honor and thanks for using me to inform you this day. May His Holy Spirit give you the necessary tools needed to grasp and act on His words. And I by the power given to me in Matthew 18:18 and Luke 10:19, I bind the hand of the enemy and its forces, who try to steal this word, and blind your eyes, and harden your heart from receiving this truth and acting upon it. I ask God, the Father of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, to loose the Holy Spirit and the Heavenly host to deliver this message safely to whomever God intended it to reach, because it will not return to Him void, but will accomplish what it is meant to do, in the omnipotent name of Jesus Christ I pray. Amen.

YOU CAN’T

There are things in life that you just can’t get without doing certain things. You can’t get the right job without the right qualifications, you can’t get the qualifications without an education; you can’t get educated without going to school. The main thing I would like you to know is that, you can’t get to God without going through Jesus, which means you can’t get everlasting life without accepting Jesus, you can’t accept Jesus without confessing that you are a sinner and want to repent or turn from your sins; you can’t get forgiven of your sins, if you can’t confess that you are a sinner, in order to be saved. You can’t get to heaven unless you believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and that He is the only begotten son of God. John 3:16 confirms that He is the Son of God and John 14:6 confirms that He is the way. What is it, you can’t believe or you won’t believe?

You can’t go to hell if you present your bodies as a living sacrifice, that is Holy and acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service (Romans 12:1-2). The devil can’t win the battle over your mind if you cast down all imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bring into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ (2 Corinthians 10:4-5). You can’t survive in this spiritual warfare as a child of God if you don’t put your whole armor of God on, located in Ephesians 6:11-17. You can’t chase the devil away until you resist him, and submit to God, by drawing nearer to God so He can draw closer to you as we see in James 4:7.

You can’t access your power and authority, or use your keys to retrieve your gifts that the enemy stole if you are not living in righteousness, that Jesus gave back to us (2 Corinthians 5:21). Jesus shows us in Luke 3:21-22 that because He had the word of God in Him when the enemy came with his proposals, that would lead to sin by twisting God’s words, He told him what was written by God, because He had studied to show Himself approved by God, so that He could rightly divide the word of truth.(Read 2 Timothy 2:15)  Are you doing the same? You can’t use the Omnipotent Name of Jesus unless you know Him. Do you know Him? Do you want to know Him? THEN DON’T DELAY! GO TO THE TOP OF THIS BLOG AND CLICK ON TO THE SALVATION PAGE. THEN FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS AND HAVE ACCESS TO GOD AND HIS BENEFITUAL PROMISES IN THE BIBLE.

To God be the glory, praise, honor and thanks for using me to inform you this day, may His Holy Spirit give you the necessary tools needed to grasp and act on His words. And I by the power given to me in Matthew 18:18 and Luke 10:19, I bind the hand of the enemy and its forces, who try to steal this word, and blind your eyes, and harden your heart from receiving this truth and acting upon it, and I loose the Holy Spirit and the Heavenly host to deliver this message safely to whomever God intended it to reach, because it will not return to Him void, but will accomplish what it is meant to do, in the omnipotent name of Jesus Christ I pray. Amen.

WHICH WAY TO TURN?

Have you ever gotten to a turning point or crossroad in your life and wondered where to turn? Life has dealt you a few setbacks and some devastating blows, and now you are older and wiser, but the economy is not looking good, you are one paycheck from broke, or like others you have lost your job, home, car and even your spouse, or you lost a loved one. This is the time when you find out what you are made of and the tough gets going; this is not the time to give up or throw in the towel. Some like to say the fat lady sings, but  the only time the fat lady sings is at your funeral, and if you are reading this it means you are not dead. So, the big question is who do you turn to when you’re facing a setback or when you’re at your turning point? Politicians don’t have the answer or the solution, some of your friends and family members are the last folks you want to turn to or look to for advise or help; So my advise is to do like David said in Psalms 121.

“I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills; from whence cometh my help? My help cometh from the Lord, who made heaven and earth. He will not suffer thy foot to be moved; He who keepeth thee will not slumber. Behold, He who keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep. The Lord is thy keeper; the Lord is thy shade upon thy right hand. The sun shall not smite thee by day nor the moon by night. The Lord shall preserve thee from all evil; He shall preserve thy soul. The Lord shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, even for evermore.”

There is your answer to your prayers, that’s the only way out of your mess, turning to God is the only way out. The Bible has all the promises and is the only book that points the way to God. Are you ready to seek the only way to turn?

“My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge; because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee,” –  Hosea 4:6 

 This message  spoken years ago is also for us today; Then when we look in Ezekiel 18:20 – 24 which says, “The soul that sinneth, it shall die, the son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son; the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him. But if the wicked will turn from all his sins that he hath committed, and keep all my statutes, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall surly live, he shall not die…” Now you see the only way out is God, and the only one you can turn to and depend on is Him. What will your decision be? And which way will you turn? The Bible is full of answers for every occasion, and the only way to God is through His only begotten Son Jesus. If you are willing to go God’s way – get started by going to the top of this blog. Click on to the salvation page and follow the instructions. I don’t need to write a whole sermon on the topic, read the Bible and see it, then experience it for yourself.

To God be the glory, praise, honor and thanks for using me to inform you this day, may His Holy Spirit give you the necessary tools needed to grasp and act on His words. And I by the power given to me in Matthew 18:18 and Luke 10:19, I bind the hand of the enemy and its forces, who try to steal this word, and blind your eyes, and harden your heart from receiving this truth and acting upon it, and I loose the Holy Spirit and the Heavenly host to deliver this message safely to whomever God intended it to reach, because it will not return to Him void, but will accomplish what it is meant to do, in the omnipotent name of Jesus Christ I pray. Amen.

 

SPREAD THE LOVE

If you are reading this it means you are alive. In that case let’s make a special effort today to spread love instead of hate, joy instead of sadness, peace instead of war, forgiveness instead of malice, encourage someone instead of putting them down, give instead of taking or receiving, say something nice to someone, instead of bashing them, help someone in need out of your vast resources, tell someone you love and appreciate them instead of always letting them feel un-loved and under appreciated, and bless someone instead of cursing them, is this too hard to do? Are you so full of hate, that you can’t love; so mean that you can’t give or share? Try it and see what a difference it will make in your life.

“Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamor, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice; and be ye kind one to another, tender-hearted, forgiving one another, even as God, for Christ’s sake, hath forgiven you.” – Ephesians 4:31-32

“Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, strife, jealousy, wrath, factions, seditions, heresies, envying, murders, drunkenness, reveling, and the like; of which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they who do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.” – Galatians 5:19 – 21

“But the fruit of the Spirit is: Love, joy, peace, long-suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, self-control; against such there is no law. And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. If we live in the Spirit let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.” – Galatians 5:22-26 

I can’t add or subtract anything from this, I will just allow the word that is quick and powerful to convict you, and let you know that Jesus is the only way to go. Therefore if you are interested in receiving Jesus, just go to the top of this blog, click on to the salvation page and follow the instructions.
