A HEART  OF  COMPASSION  

“Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put on tender mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, longsuffering; bearing with one another, and forgiving one another, if anyone has a complaint against another; even as Christ forgave you, so you also must  do.  But above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfection. And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him”{Colossians 3:12‭-‬17}.

“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. And those who  are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another”{Galatians 5:22‭-‬26}.

KNOW THE FACTS 

​”For the word of God is  living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart”,{Hebrews 4:12}.

“All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work”,{2 Timothy 3:16-17}

That’s  why we Study God’s Word,so that we can grow. 

As Hebrews 5:12-14 AMP says,”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!

NEVER WOULD HAVE MADE IT WITHOUT GOD

​Christ in you is always greater than all that you will ever go through; BECAUSE:

“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 }

LISTEN

“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 8:31‭-‬39}.

•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!

RECEIVING GOD’S GIFTS

​How to receive from God? You must first know these things:

1.For the Lord God is  a sun and shield; The Lord will give grace and glory; No good thing will He withhold From those who walk uprightly. O Lord of hosts, Blessed is the man who trusts in You!(Psalms 84:11‭-‬12 )

2. All that God offers is righteous, holy and good. 

3. Know the good and acceptable and perfect will of God (His Word). 

4. Ask and ask in faith. 

James 4:2 …you have not because you ask not. 

John 16:24 

…ask, and all of you shall receive, that your joy may be full. 

1John 5:14-15

 And this is the confidence that we have in Him, that, if we ask any thing according to His will, He hears  us .And if we know that He hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired  of Him. 

4. By faith know that you have what you asked for before you see what you ask for. 

5. Now that you know by faith that you have what you asked for anticipate the manifestation of it at all times until it has manifested. 

•Keep your faith, trust and confidence in God without wavering and without doubt. Be steadfast and immovable in faith in spite of the situation. God is Faithful. He will deliver. He is True to His Word and Promises. 

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

DWELLING IN HIS PRESENCE 

​why wouldn’t anyone want to live in God’s presence,where there is joy and peace.

“You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore”(Psalms 16:11).

How to Live in the Manifested Presence of God .

Psalm 91:1

He that DWELLS (lives) in the SECRET PLACE of the MOST HIGH shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. 

+The SECRET PLACE of the Lord MOST HIGH is HIS MANIFESTED PRESENCE. 

+How do we get into, and dwell in the SECRET PLACE of the MOST HIGH?

John 14:23 

Jesus answered and said:

If a man LOVES me, he will keep my words: and my Father will LOVE him, and WE will come unto him, and make our ABODE (dwell or live) with him. 

+The DWELLING PLACE, SECRET PLACE or MANIFESTED PRESENCE of the Lord begins with us LOVING Him OBEDIENTLY. 

+To LOVE God OBEDIENTLY is to do all things from our hearts in LOVE, TRUTH, RIGHTEOUSNESS, HOLINESS, and FAITH. 

+How do we get into, and dwell in the SECRET PLACE of the MOST HIGH?

Psalm 66:18

If I regard INIQUITY in my heart, the Lord will not hear me: 

INIQUITY: Sin, evil, wickedness and such like things. 

+Before we get into the DWELLING PLACE, SECRET PLACE, or MANIFESTED PRESENCE of the Lord we must repent from all know sins, and make sure that we are living in Love, Truth, Righteousness, Holiness and Faith. 

+The third thing to practice in order to enter the SECRET PLACE of the Lord MOST HIGH and HIS MANIFESTED PRESENCE is Thanksgiving, Praise and Worship. 

Psalm 100:4 

Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and BLESS HIS NAME. 

2 Chronicles 5:13-14

13 It came even to pass, as the trumpeters and singers were as one, to make one sound to be heard in praising and thanking the LORD; and when they lifted up their voice with the trumpets and cymbals and instruments of music, and praised the LORD, saying, For He is Good; for His mercy endures forever: that then the house was filled with a cloud, even the house of the LORD; 

14 So that the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud: for the GLORY of the LORD had filled the house of God. 

+Let us always give unto the Lord the Thanksgiving, Praise and Worship that will maintain His MANIFESTED PRESENCE in our lives. Hallelujahs to Jesus!!!

•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 you are and BLESSED you will always be and to God be all the GLORY. Amen!

STRENGTH

My strength doesn’t come from lifting weights,for it’s when I am weak that God is my strength. For greater is He who is in me,than he that is in the world.

Ephesians 6:10

…be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. 

•Our strength is always in the Lord.

•Anyone that is strong in their own strength is dangerous to them self p  and to others.

Psalms 27:1 

The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of  whom shall I be afraid? 

•When we realized that the Lord is our strength, and the strength of our lives, and the strength by which we live, we will live life without fears. 

•In 1Samuel 17, David faced Goliath, and took him on in the Name of the Lord of Hosts. David didn’t look at the giant size,nor the difference between he and Goliath to determine his victory. David didn’t looked at the strength difference between he and Goliath to determine his victory. David knew the Lord was the strength of his life and the Lord guarantees his Victory. 

•Likewise the Lord is your Strength of your life and He guarantees your Victory. So walk victorious in the Lord.

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

CONSIDER YOUR WAYS 

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! {Haggai 1:5-7}.

“For My eyes are on all their ways; they are not hidden from My face, nor is their iniquity hidden from My eyes. And first I will repay double for their iniquity and their sin, because they have defiled My land; they have filled My inheritance with the carcasses of their detestable and abominable idols.” O Lord , my strength and my fortress, My refuge in the day of affliction, The Gentiles shall come to You From the ends of the earth and say, “Surely our fathers have inherited lies, Worthlessness and unprofitable things. ” Will a man make gods for himself, Which are not gods? “Therefore behold, I will this once cause them to know, I will cause them to know My hand and My might; And they shall know that My name is the Lord” {Jeremiah 16:17-21} .

Let us search out and examine our ways, And turn back to the Lord ; Let us lift our hearts and hands To God in heaven.[Lamentations 3:40‭-‬41]

DELIVERANCE 

​Lord deliver us from everything that breaks your heart.

This I recall to my mind, Therefore I have hope. Through the Lord ’s mercies we are not consumed, Because His compassions fail not. They  are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness.(Lamentations 3:21‭-‬23).

SO LORD:

“Keep back Your servant also from presumptuous sins; Let them not have dominion over me. Then I shall be blameless, And I shall be innocent of great transgression. Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart Be acceptable in Your sight, O Lord , my strength and my Redeemer”.{Psalms 19:13‭-‬14}

‘But the person who does anything presumptuously, whether  he  is native-born or a stranger, that one brings reproach on the Lord , and he shall be cut off from among his people. Because he has despised the word of the Lord , and has broken His commandment, that person shall be completely cut off; his guilt shall  be upon him.’ (Numbers 15:30‭-‬31)

Deliverance means freedom. When God delivers you, you are free from whatever had you bound. “Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed” (John 8:36). The devil is a thief, 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. “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep” (John 10:10‭-‬11).

REMEMBER 

Satan will make every effort to lure you back into bondage. You don’t have to recommit to him. Enjoy your freedom!

THEREFORE:

“Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage”[Galatians 5:1].

+++Freedom In Christ+++

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.

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

WALK IN LOVE 

​We can keep the enemy (Satan the devil) defeated all the times by just simply WALKING IN THE  LOVE of God. 

Ephesians 5:1-2

1 Be you therefore followers of God, as dear children; 

2 AND WALK IN LOVE, as Christ also has loved us…

+WALKING IN LOVE implies the DEMONSTRATION and APPLICATION of LOVE one to another for the glory of Christ our Lord. 

+Remember God is LOVE and LOVE which is God never fails. God’s LOVE has His OMNIPOTENT POWER in it. 

+The SUPERNATURAL OMNIPOTENT POWER that in the LOVE of God is fatally detrimental to the enemy. 

+Wherever and whenever the LOVE of God is APPLIED and DEMONSTRATED the VICTORY we have in Christ is being afflicted and inflected upon the enemy with excruciating intolerable pain, torment and torture. 

+Walking in LOVE is an exercise of our victory in Christ and simultaneously exercising God’s Power over the defeated enemy. 

+Hallelujahs to Jesus!

•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!

YOU CAN’T HIDE YOUR THOUGHTS NOR DEEDS FROM GOD.

​”O Lord , You have searched me and known me. You know my sitting down and my rising up; You understand my thought afar off. You comprehend my path and my lying down, And are acquainted with all my ways. For there  is not a word on my tongue, But behold, O Lord , You know it altogether. You have hedged me behind and before, And laid Your hand upon me. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; It is high, I cannot attain it. Where can I go from Your Spirit? Or where can I flee from Your presence? If I ascend into heaven, You are there; If I make my bed in hell, behold, You are  there. If I take the wings of the morning, And dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea, Even there Your hand shall lead me, And Your right hand shall hold me. If I say, “Surely the darkness shall fall on me,” Even the night shall be light about me; Indeed, the darkness shall not hide from You, But the night shines as the day; The darkness and the light are both alike to  You. For You formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother’s womb. I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Marvelous are Your works, And that my soul knows very well. My frame was not hidden from You, When I was made in secret, And skillfully wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed. And in Your book they all were written, The days fashioned for me, When as  yet  there  were none of them. How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God! How great is the sum of them! If I should count them, they would be more in number than the sand; When I awake, I am still with You”.(Psalms 139:1‭-‬18)

LISTEN 

Ecclesiastes 12:14 says,

For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether  it be evil. 

1Corinthians 3:13-15

“Every man’s work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man’s work of what sort it is. 

If any man’s work abide which he has built thereupon, he shall receive a reward. 

If any man’s work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire. 

•In Christ we have all that pertains to life and godliness. 

Colossians 3:23

And whatsoever all of you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men. 

•Knowing that God’s work done His way will never lack His supply. 

•Put the Love of God in everything you do, and in everything you do put your Faith in God. 

•You will reap many rewards in this life and in the life to come.

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