PROTECT YOUR MIND

The devil is after your mind, so you must protect it.  With God’s help, you can protect your mind ,and the only way to do this is to obey His every word. Don’t entertain negative  thoughts, nor feelings, to take root in your mind . YOU MUST:

‭”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 paths. Do not be wise in your own eyes; Fear the Lord and depart from evil.  It will be health to your flesh, and strength to your bones.” ( Proverbs 3: 5-8 NKJV).

‭”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.” ( Romans 12:1-2 NKJV).

‭”… casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ “( 2 Corinthians 10:5 NKJV). Don’t allow the devil to blindfold you.

‭”But even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing, whose minds the god 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.” (2 Corinthians 4: 3-4 NKJV).

Allow me to repeat this again:
In whom the god of this world has BLINDED the MINDS of them which BELIEVE NOT…
+Remember, the devil (Satan) uses sins, doubts, lies,fear, and unbelief as a means to blind the minds of individuals when it comes to the things of Christ Jesus and the Kingdom of God. DON’T LET THE DEVIL CAUSE GOD TO GIVE UP ON YOU.

‭” Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves,  who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.  For this reason, God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. 

Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.  And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting;  being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers,  backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,  undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful;

who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.” (Romans 1: 24-32 NKJV).

Let me  repeat what Romans 1:28 says :
And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a REPROBATE MIND to do those things that are not convenient.
+As for those who rejected and the things of God out of their minds, God gave them over to a REPROBATE MIND.
+A REPROBATE MIND is a sinful, wicked, evil, unrighteous, ungodly, and unholy mind that hates and rebels against all the things of God
+It is detrimental to our lives NOT to retain God in our knowledge and in our minds.

‭” But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.  But he who is spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is rightly judged by no one. For “who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct Him?” But we have the mind of Christ.” ( 1 Corinthians 2:14-16 NKJV).

‭” This I say, therefore, and testify in the Lord, that you should no longer walk as the rest of the Gentiles walk, in the futility of their mind,  having their understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God, because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart;  who, being past feeling, have given themselves over to lewdness, to work all uncleanness with greediness. But you have not so learned Christ, if indeed you have heard Him and have been taught by Him, as the truth is in Jesus: that you put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts,  and be renewed in the spirit of your mind, and that you put on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness.”(Ephesians 4:17-14 NKJV).

‭” Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God;  and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.  Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things.” ( Philippians 4: 6-8 NKJV).

.


John 8:32
You shall know the TRUTH and the TRUTH shall MAKE you FREE.

‭” 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]

+Blessed are those who believe in the Lord, Love Him, Trust in Him, and obey Him with all their heart.
•Continue to let the WORD of God be the standard for your life. Always LOVING others like Christ Jesus loves us while keeping our faith, trust, and confidence in Him.
•BLESSED you are and BLESSED you will always be and to God be all the GLORY. Amen!

FAITH

FAITH is a spiritual activity. One step of obedience, in faith, can alter your life forever.

‭James 2:26 KJV‬ says :
For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.

So Jesus answered and said to them, “Assuredly, I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you will not only do what was done to the fig tree, but also if you say to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ it will be done. And whatever things you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive.”(Matthew 21:21‭-‬22).


Then Mark 11:22 states:
And Jesus answering says unto them, Have faith in God.

However, 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.
As Hebrews 11:1 says :
FAITH is the SUBSTANCE of things HOPES for, the EVIDENCE of things NOT SEEN.
•Let your faith in God be your daily exercise.

‭” 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]


•Continue to let the Word of God be the standard for your life. Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to our Lord Jesus Christ be all the glory. Amen!

POWER AND EMPOWERED

+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.” ( Luke 10: 19 NKJV).

‭” But you shall receive 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.” ( Acts 1:8 NKJV)


However,  Ephesians 3:20 says :
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.
  • ‭”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).
    +++Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!

GREATER IS GOD IN US .

Christ in you is always greater than all that you will ever go through.

‭” Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world.  By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world. 

You are of God, little children, and have overcome them because HE WHO IS IN YOU IS GREATER THAN he WHO IS IN THE WORLD.  They are of the world. Therefore, they speak as of the world, and the world hears them. We are of God. He who knows God hears us; he who is not of God does not hear us. By this, we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error.”(1 John 4:1-6 NKJV).

‭” What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?  Who shall bring a charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies.  Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us. 

Who 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 Your sake we are killed all day long; We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.” Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved 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 created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”(Romans 8:1-39 NKJV).


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 them 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.
Again, Romans 8:31 reminds us:
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.

‭” 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].

+++Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!

HE IS WITH YOU

Where is God in all that we are going through? He is there with you.

[6] Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid of them; for the Lord your God, He is the One who goes with you. He will not leave you nor forsake you.”

‭‭Psalms‬ ‭23:4‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
[4] Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; For You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.

[1] I will lift up my eyes to the hills— From whence comes my help? [2] My help comes from the Lord, Who made heaven and earth.

[5] The Lord is your keeper; The Lord is your shade at your right hand. [6] The sun shall not strike you by day, Nor the moon by night. [7] The Lord shall preserve you from all evil; He shall preserve your soul. [8] The Lord shall preserve your going out and your coming in From this time forth, and even forevermore.


Psalm 91:11
For He shall give His angels charge over you, to keep you in all your ways.

‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭43:1‭-‬2‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
[1] But now, thus says the Lord, who created you, O Jacob, And He who formed you, O Israel: “Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by your name; You are Mine. [2] When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; And through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned, Nor shall the flame scorch you.


+And He said in Hebrews 13:5
…I will never leave you or forsake you.
+And in Matthew 28:20
…I’m with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
+Never feel alone, down, hopeless, or helpless. The Lord by His Spirit and is Holy Angels is with us.
+Never let what we are going through determine where we are with the Lord.
+In spite of all that we are going through we are still here, and we are on the winning side and that’s the Lord’s Side.
+Be encouraged and stay encouraged. We got the VICTORY!

[24] 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, [25] To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.


•Continue to let the WORD of God be the standard for your life. Always LOVING others like Christ Jesus loves us while keeping our Faith, Trust and Confidence in Him.
•BLESSED you are and BLESSED you will always be and to God be all the GLORY. Amen!

MINISTERING THE WORD OF GOD.

‭‭ And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned. And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues; they will take up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.” ( Mark 16: 15-18 NKJV).

” And they went out and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the word through the accompanying signs. Amen.” ( Mark 16:20 NKJV).

‭‭”And I, brethren, when I came to you, did not come with excellence of speech or of wisdom declaring to you the testimony of God. For I determined not to know anything among you except Jesus Christ and Him crucified. I was with you in weakness, in fear, and in much trembling. And my speech and my preaching were not with persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, that your faith should not be in the wisdom of men but in the power of God. However, we speak wisdom among those who are mature, yet not the wisdom of this age, nor of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing.

But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which God ordained before the ages for our glory, which none of the rulers of this age knew; for had they known, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. But as it is written: “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.” But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God. For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him?

Even so no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God. Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things that have been freely given to us by God. These things we also speak, not in words which man’s wisdom teaches but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual.

But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. But he who is spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is rightly judged by no one. For “who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct Him?” But we have the mind of Christ.”(1 Corinthians 2:1-16).

LET THE HOLY SPIRIT 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.

‭‭” 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]


++Let Go and Trust God++
Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!

PEACE

Jesus is the Prince of Peace and more. (Isaiah 9:6).
+++Do not let the bad news of the world steal your peace.
Psalms 37:37
Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright: for the end of that man is peace.
John 16:27
Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world gives, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.


John 16:33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me you might have peace. In the world, you shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
+++The peace of God in you has already overcome all the tribulations of the world. Just relax and keep your mind on Jesus.
Isaiah 26:3-4
God will keep you in perfect peace when your mind is stayed on Him: because you trust in God.
Trust all of you in the LORD forever: for in the LORD JEHOVAH is everlasting strength:
2 Corinthians 13:11 Finally, brethren, farewell. Be perfect, be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you.
+++Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!

‭‭Jude‬ ‭1:24‭-‬25‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
[24] 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, [25] To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.

HAVING FAITH IN GOD ONLY.

Fear is the absence of faith or the enemy of faith .

Mark 11:22
And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have FAITH in God.
+++Why have FAITH in God?
Because Hebrews 11:6 says But without faith it is impossible to please Him (God)…
+++Your FAITH in God must be UNCONDITIONAL FAITH. This is a FAITH that has it foundation in the WORD of God and God Himself. This FAITH is flat out and all out in God without conditions.
+++Simply put, Proverbs 3:5-6
5 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
+++This application of FAITH is the Key principle you need to exercise in order to obtain the abundant blessings of God.
+++Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!

POWER WITHIN

‭‭” You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.” (1 John 4:4 NKJV).

You Power ,because of Christ
In Luke 20:1-2, we read :
The Scribes and Elders said to Jesus tell us by what authority you do these things (miracles, signs, wonders, healing and deliverances? or who is he that gave you this authority?
Then Matthew 28:18 says:
And Jesus came and spoke unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
•All-Power speaks of the omnipotence of Jesus. This covers the sum total all and absolute authority and supernatural miracle working mighty power.
•When we received Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior and got baptized with the Holy Spirit, Fire and Power, we entered into the Omnipotence with Christ.
•We on our own are powerless, but in Christ and in Christ alone, we operate in His Omnipotent Power by His Holy Spirit.

Jesus said in ‭‭Luke‬ ‭10:19‬ ‭NKJV‬‬,”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.”


Then Acts 1:8 says :
But you shall receive power. After that, the Holy Ghost is come upon you…
Matt 10:1
AND when he had called unto him his twelve disciples, he gave them power against unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease.
•The rapture of the Church has not yet come. Therefore, the demonstration of the Spirit and Power of Christ continues with us His Church.
+++Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!

‭‭Jude‬ ‭1:24‭-‬25‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
[24] 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, [25] To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.

TRUE FREEDOM

+++Freedom In Christ+++

True freedom is to be free from sin,which means that you’re free from the devil’s control and dictates. JESUS PAID THE ULTIMATE PRICE, for our freedom.

Knowing the TRUTH Helps enable you to be free. As John 8:32 states :
And you shall know the TRUTH, and the TRUTH shall MAKE YOU FREE.
+In regards to all the challenges or problems we will face in life, one of the most important things is to know about them is the TRUTH from God’s Point of View.
+We must Know, Understand, See and Approach all challenges and problems from God’s Point of View.
+God’s Point of View is the ONLY VIEW by which we can see all things correctly and TRUTHFULLY.
+In John 14:6 Jesus is the Way, the TRUTH, and the Life…
+In John 17:17 Jesus said that the Word of God is TRUTH.
+Jesus is the Word of God, the Word of God is Truth. The Truth and the Word are ALL ONE and the SAME.
+Let us therefore VIEW ALL THINGS in the LIGHT of God’s Word (the Eternal and Absolute) TRUTH.
+This sets the stage for Total and Complete Victory In Christ Jesus our Lord, and Victory in every situation. Amen!


Galatians 5:1 encourages us to :
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 knocked 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.


•Continue to let the WORD of God be the standard for your life. Always LOVING others like Christ Jesus loves us while keeping our faith, trust, and confidence in Him.
•BLESSED you are and BLESSED you will always be and to God be all the GLORY. Amen!

‭‭”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 AMPC].
