GOD’S SOVEREIGN WILL

How many times have we prayed for things, and fail to realize that if it’s not Gods will or in His plans for us, our prayers will never be answered. Listen up folks, it is not your will it’s  His. Not your way but His. Not my thoughts but His, Isaiah 55:8-9 states that fact. However, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ demonstrates this to us, in His prayers to God our Father in Matthew 26:39.

If Jesus Christ who is Gods only begotten son, who was perfect in all His ways, and had a right to whatever He wanted, was subjected to Gods will; what could possibly make us think that we are different or special, and that the same rule doesn’t apply to us. Yes God does love us, that’s why He sent Jesus, but it still boils down to His will.

Lets be real folks, lets put on the belt of truth and face the facts, or the music as some would say, why would God or anyone want to do anything for you if you are not faithful to the person. Please stop trying to psychoanalyze God, if it doesn’t work on people it will definitely not work on God, He knows your heart and it’s intent.

Do you know what Gods will for your life is? It’s simple, He does not want you to perish, so obey Him,worship Him in Spirit and truth, accept His gift ,of His only begotten son, and believe that God sent him,and allowed him to die for our sins, then raised him from the dead. That’s just the beginning; then to know Gods will for your life you must seek His kingdom and His righteousness, so that He can start adding to your life (Matthew 6:33). Another one of God’s will is for us to 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 he transformed by the renewing of your mind, that he may prove what is that good and acceptable, and perfect, will of God according to Romans 12:1-2. His will is for us to prosper and be in good as our soul prosper as 3John 2 tells us,from Genesis to Revelation His will is laid out in bold letters, there is no loop holes written in fine print.

To start knowing His will for you, just go to the top of this blog, click on to the salvation page, and follow the instructions. For further teachings and development follow the leading of the Holy Spirit,and study the word.May God equip you with the necessary things to do His will, I give God all the credit for using me to put His message out, so people will know.

GODLY PEACE

The Benefits of having the PEACE of God in our Minds and Hearts:
•PEACE in your MIND prevents frustration and confusion in the mind.
•PEACE in the MIND brings clarity of thinking and opens you up to the Mind and Wisdom of God (Christ).
LISTEN
“Now acquaint yourself with Him, and be at peace; Thereby good will come to you. Receive, please, instruction from His mouth, And lay up His words in your heart.
{Job 22:21-22}.
To have peace you can’t listen to the world,only to God. Therefore, you must do what God says.
“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 12:2].
Our minds are renewed and we have the Mind of Christ.
•PEACE in the HEART (your spirit) causes you to hear the Voice of God.
•PEACE in your HEART makes you sensitive to the inward witness and promptings of the Holy Spirit.
Rom 8:16
The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit…
•The PEACE of God in our Minds and Hearts helps us to walk in the Spirit and not in the flesh. This also helps us to know the good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
•Peace is not based on our circumstances, but on our relationship with God through Christ.
•Remember Jesus is our Prince of Peace, Isaiah 9:6.
Matthew 5:9
Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
•Your peace is a fruit of the Spirit, and it shows your wisdom, strength and faith in the Lord. I pray that you experience the peace of God today and everyday for the rest of your life.
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.
{Philippians 4:6-7 }
+++Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!

WHO IS JESUS TO US

To me He is :
The Son of God (Matthew 2:15).
Immanuel (Isaiah 7:14;Matthew 1:23).
The Word (John 1:1&14).
The Lamb of God (John 1:29).
The Mediator (Galatians 3:19).
King of Kings,and Lord of lords (Revelation 19:16).
The Alpha and Omega (Revelation 2:6).
The Lord of all (Acts 10:3).
The Lord our righteousness (Romans 5:18).
The question is,? Who is He to you? All of the above, some if the above, or none of the above?
It’s time to know ,who Jesus is? And, His purpose for coming?
Christ is our Redeemer ,in
1Peter 1:18-19 Christ is our Redeemer ,and He has redeemed us with His blood.

Then Galatians 3:13 says, Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us…
Psalms 103:4 tells us that,”The Lord redeems our lives from destruction”. Something, no one can do, except for God.
Listen
In Job 19:25 it says, For I know that my redeemer lives, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth:
•The Lord Jesus Christ is our Redeemer. He has delivered us from sin and all the consequences from sin by means of His sacrificial death on the cross and His shed blood.
•As the redeemed people of God in Christ Jesus we have a renewed and eternal life. We have available to us in Christ healing, deliverance, protection, provision, prosperity, godly authority and supernatural power.
•All that we have lost shall be restored to us by Christ Jesus our Redeemer.
Mark 10:30 But you shall receive an hundredfold now in this time…
(Joel 2:25 ERV) …I will pay you back for those years of trouble.
+++Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!

ASK the Lord to fight for you

Plead my  cause, O Lord , with those who strive with me; Fight against those who fight against me. Take hold of shield and buckler, And stand up for my help. Also draw out the spear, And stop those who pursue me. Say to my soul, “I am your salvation.” Let those be put to shame and brought to dishonor Who seek after my life; Let those be turned back and brought to confusion Who plot my hurt. Let them be like chaff before the wind, And let the angel of the Lord chase them. Let their way be dark and slippery, And let the angel of the Lord pursue them. For without cause they have hidden their net for me in a pit, Which they have dug without cause for my life. Let them not rejoice over me who are wrongfully my enemies; Nor let them wink with the eye who hate me without a cause. For they do not speak peace, But they devise deceitful matters Against the quiet ones in the land. They also opened their mouth wide against me, And said, “Aha, aha! Our eyes have seen it. ” This You have seen, O Lord ; Do not keep silence. O Lord, do not be far from me. Stir up Yourself, and awake to my vindication, To my cause, my God and my Lord. Vindicate me, O Lord my God, according to Your righteousness; And let them not rejoice over me. Let them not say in their hearts, “Ah, so we would have it!” Let them not say, “We have swallowed him up.” Let them be ashamed and brought to mutual confusion Who rejoice at my hurt; Let them be clothed with shame and dishonor Who exalt themselves against me. Let them shout for joy and be glad, Who favor my righteous cause; And let them say continually, “Let the Lord be magnified, Who has pleasure in the prosperity of His servant.” And my tongue shall speak of Your righteousness And of Your praise all the day long.
Psalms 35:1-7, 19-28

EXHORTATIONS to CHRISTIANS

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. For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith.{Romans 12:1-3 }.

Therefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and rest your hope fully upon the grace that is to be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ; as obedient children, not conforming yourselves to the former lusts, as in your ignorance; but as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, because it is written, “Be holy, for I am holy.” And if you call on the Father, who without partiality judges according to each one’s work, conduct yourselves throughout the time of your stay here in fear; knowing that you were not redeemed with corruptible things, like silver or gold, from your aimless conduct received by tradition from your fathers, but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot.
{I Peter 1:13-19 }.

And you shall be holy to Me, for I the Lord am holy, and have separated you from the peoples, that you should be Mine.{Leviticus 20:26}

Jude, a bondservant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, To those who are called, sanctified by God the Father, and preserved in Jesus Christ: Mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. Now Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied about these men also, saying, “Behold, the Lord comes with ten thousands of His saints, to execute judgment on all, to convict all who are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have committed in an ungodly way, and of all the harsh things which ungodly sinners have spoken against Him.” These are grumblers, complainers, walking according to their own lusts; and they mouth great swelling words, flattering people to gain advantage. But you, beloved, remember the words which were spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ: how they told you that there would be mockers in the last time who would walk according to their own ungodly lusts. These are sensual persons, who cause divisions, not having the Spirit. But you, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit, keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. And on some have compassion, making a distinction; but others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire, hating even the garment defiled by the flesh. 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 1:1-2, 14-25 }

GOD’S GOOD GIFTS

If the man or woman is a gift from God to you,then you will not walk down divorce road,nor separation lane.

“Do not be deceived, my beloved brethren. Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning”. {
James 1:16-17 }
So,whatever you have if it’s not perfect then it’s not a gift from God. However, Romans 8:26-28 says,
“Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. Now He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God. And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose”.

Yes,we all make mistakes ,but God will work it out for good,if we admit we make a mistake, and trust Him to correct it for us.
But we must obey Him,starting now, God says in Isaiah 1:18-20 :
“Come now, and let us reason together,” Says the Lord , “Though your sins are like scarlet, They shall be as white as snow; Though they are red like crimson, They shall be as wool. If you are willing and obedient, You shall eat the good of the land; But if you refuse and rebel, You shall be devoured by the sword”; For the mouth of the Lord has spoken”.
GOD WANTS TO SATISFY US WITH GOOD THINGS. If and when we do as He says.
Bless the Lord , O my soul, And forget not all His benefits: Who forgives all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases, Who redeems your life from destruction, Who crowns you with loving kindness and tender mercies, Who satisfies your mouth with good things, So that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.{Psalms 103:2-5 }

Now may He who supplies seed to the sower, and bread for food, supply and multiply the seed you have sown and increase the fruits of your righteousness, while you are enriched in everything for all liberality, which causes thanksgiving through us to God. For the administration of this service not only supplies the needs of the saints, but also is abounding through many thanksgivings to God, while, through the proof of this ministry, they glorify God for the obedience of your confession to the gospel of Christ, and for your liberal sharing with them and all men, and by their prayer for you, who long for you because of the exceeding grace of God in you. Thanks be to God for His indescribable gift!
{ 2 Corinthians 9:10-15}

king David said,
What, what would have become of me] had I not believed that I would see the Lord’s goodness in the land of the living! Wait and hope for and expect the Lord; be brave and of good courage and let your heart be stout and enduring. Yes, wait for and hope for and expect the Lord.
[Psalm 27:13-14 AMP]
DO YOU WANT GOD’S GOOD AND PERFECT GIFTS?
Start by accepting ,the gift of His only begotten Son,JESUS. Just go to the top of this blog,click on to the salvation page,and follow the instructions, then allow the Holy Spirit which you receive, if you say the prayer sincerely and in truth,to lead guide and direct you,for the rest of your life.

A DOSE OF THE WORD

Just as how many insist that we take the flu shot. I insist that we take a shot of the word of God. 3 John 2 says, “Beloved, I wish above all things that you prosper and be in health as your soul prospers.

Therefore, if we cast down the devils imaginations and every high thing, like sickness, that exalt itself against the knowledge of God, and bring them into captivity to the obedience of Christ, as 2 Corinthians 10:4-5 says. Isaiah 53:6 reminds us that by His stripes we are healed.

Then we will have successfully submit to God, resist the devil so that he will flee with his sickness and everything else that he has that is not good for us. And draw near to God, so that He can draw near to us as James 4:7-8 suggest.

Remember Jeremiah 29:11, God has said He knows the thoughts he thinks toward us, thoughts of peace and not of evil, and to give us an expected end.

YOU CAN’T SAVE YOUR SELF

It’s so sad ,when people actually think, that the good things they do,will get them into heaven,while others think that they can outsmart God,with their masters,and doctorate degrees. But God wants you to know, that you can only be saved,by His grace and mercy, here is what He said:
“And you He  made  alive,  who were dead in trespasses and sins, in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience, among whom also we all once conducted ourselves in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, just as the others. But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it  is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them”.{Ephesians 2:1-10}
So His suggestion is :
” 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}

Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely; and may your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. He who calls you is faithful, who also will do it. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.
I Thessalonians 5:23-24, 28

GIVING UP IS NOT AN OPTION

+++DON’T YOU ever give up ,Jesus died so that you may have life,and live life abundantly. The devil’s job is to steal your life,joy,peace, and happiness and Jesus warned us about him,in John 10:10,He said:
“The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly”.

All you have to do is pray, and give it all to God as 1Peter 5 says,
” Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you. Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world. But may the God of all grace, who called us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you. To Him be the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.{1 Peter 5:6-11}.

Jeremiah puts it this way,
“Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord , And whose hope is the Lord . For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters, Which spreads out its roots by the river, And will not fear when heat comes; But its leaf will be green, And will not be anxious in the year of drought, Nor will cease from yielding fruit”.{Jeremiah 17:7-8}.

However, 2 Corinthians 4:16-18 wants us to know,that no matter what, it’s working out for our good.
” For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.
For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, works for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal”.
2 Corinthians 5:7 says,
(For we walk by faith, not by sight:)
•You maybe going through a trial but you are on your way out of it.
•This trial cannot stay. It cannot last, and it definitely cannot defeat you.
•Remember the battle is the Lord’s and victory is yours. In Christ you are liberated and victorious.
+++Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!

BLACK FRIDAY

Why would someone call a day black Friday for shopping puposes? And why would civilized folks get caught up into it,when it’s at their expense.
Why not call it temptation Friday,or lust Friday.Sales,Bargains, discounts, and the best deals, is this really true?
Is this the bargain of a life-time?
When you think about it;
It’s just another trick of the enemy to steal,kill,and destroy you,by increasing your debts and keep you in bondage,by maxing out your credit cards,for momentary pleasures,he tempts us with these things,which develops our lust and love for the things of the world.
But,God tells us not to love the world nor the things if the world,for all that is in the world is the lust of the flesh,the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life {1 John 2:15-16}.
However, James 1:14-16 says, “But every man is tempted,when he is drawn away of His own lust,and enticed. Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin,and sin,when it is finished,bringeth forth death. Do not err,my beloved brethren”.Just the name Black Friday alone, should scare you,and tell you something is not right. Can you imagine if God decided to really make it a black friday. Everywhere pitch black, total darkness all around, would you be up all night camping out at some store waiting for bargains, or waking up early to be the first in line at some store? I don’t think so,therefore, because you name it black friday there will be no sun or electricity,and you would be grouping around in the dark, just trying to see where you are or feeling for  your location of something familiar. Are participants of black Friday lovers of the world? Listen, we already have the best bargain in the world that money can’t buy, Jesus gave us the bargain of a lifetime, called everlasting life. The truth is, it’s already paid for and we don’t have to wait for black friday, we don’t have to camp out at any store, and we don’t have to get up early to be at some store waiting for the doors to open. However Jesus’ arms are open wide waiting for you to run to Him. He bargained for your sins with His life so you could be free from the enemy’s trick, which is what black friday is all about; a trick to make you think you are gaining an advantage.

Out of curiosity, how many people would camp out or get up early to be the first in line at the church waiting for communion, which is a better bargain than what the stores have to offer because Jesus guarantees eternal life. The store products are temporary and after a year the product loses its value and purpose, and you are allowing the devil to deceive you. This is just proof of how many folks he has got going to hell with him, because if it’s not glorifying God then it’s glorifying the devil. How long are you going to be tricked? When are you going to see the devil for what he is? Someone who wants to steal from you, kill you, and destroy you.

Please accept the bargains and discounts God has to offer and stop accepting the devils trinkets that controls you like a puppet on his string of people going to hell with him. Wake up and see what’s happening around the world. We are in the last days and the devil knows it so don’t let him trick you anymore, change all that today, right now! Just go to the top of this blog, click on to the salvation page, and follow the instructions, it will be the best bargain you ever get. May God give you the wisdom, knowledge, understanding, and guidance to find a church that believes in God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit, so that you will grow in grace of the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ ;”>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 the Immortal, Invisible, the only wise God, Our Savior, be the glory, praise, honor, and thanks for using me to deliver His message to His children. I pray that He will equip them with the necessary spiritual tools to receive and accept His truth in Jesus Name, Amen.
