Society has taught us to gather or get as much wealth and things that we can,while alive. However,the story of a rich man who thought the same way ends up in tragedy,he said,” And I will say to my soul,Soul,thou hast much goods laid up for many years,take thine ease ,eat , drink,and be merry. But God said unto him,thou fool,this night thy soul shall be required of thee;then whose shall things be,which thou hast provided? So is he that layeth up treasure for himself,and is not rich toward God” {Luke 12:19~21}.Then Mark 8:36 said, For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? The goal in life is not riches and success but eternal life,and being rich toward God.
In John 5:39-42 Jesus said ,”Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life, and they are they which testify of me. And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life. I receive not honor from men;but I know you,that you have not the love of God in you”. Are you one of them who make the mistake by assuming that knowledge of the scriptures is eternal life.
However,in John 17:3 Jesus said, this is life eternal, that they might know You the only True God, and Jesus Christ, whom You have sent. Without controversy eternal life is to know the One and Only True God through Christ Jesus only. Then in John 14:6 Jesus says, I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life: no man comes unto the Father, but by Me. And John 3:16 says, For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. It’s not about getting your religion or finances right. It’s about getting your eternal life right. Once you get eternal life right you will see that religion and wealth is not needed,because you can’t take it with you. Now what you need is a relationship with God the Father through Christ Jesus,His only begotten Son,to get started ,go to the top of this blog,then click on to the salvation page and follow the instructions. To God be all the glory,for choosing Him,instead of His things.
GOD ADDS,Satan Divides
God loves to add and multiply;the devil loves to divide and subtract. Jesus came to give life more abundantly,the devil came to steal,kill,and destroy life. The question is why does people spend all their lives seeking things,that will never be beneficial to them ,while others seek things that are detrimental to health,strength,and well being.Why aren’t people interested in seeking God. Didn’t they get the memo,in Hebrews 11:6,which says,”He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him”. However,Luke 12:29-32 says,” And seek not what ye shall eat,or what ye shall drink,neither be ye of doubtful mind. For all these things do the nations of the world seek after,and your Father knoweth that ye have need of these things. But rather seek ye the kingdom of God,and all these things shall be added unto you . Fear not,little flock,for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom “.Psalm 37:4 says, “Delight thyself also in the Lord,and He shall give thee the desires of thine heart”. Then 1 Chronicles 16:10-11 says,”Glory ye in His holy name;let the heart of them rejoice who seek the Lord.Seek the Lord and His strength,seek His face continually.”
There are short and long term benefits when we seek the Lord. Psalm9:10 says,”And they who know thy name will put their trust in thee,for thou,Lord,hast not forsaken those who seek thee”. Why aren’t people seeking the Lord ? Isaiah 55:6 says,”Seek ye the Lord while He may be found,call ye upon Him while He is near”. The reason why He suggested that you call or seek Him now because ,if you should die today without accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior,then you are going to hell. For the Lord is good unto those who wait for Him,to the soul that seeketh Him.(Lamentations 3:25). David when the Lord told him,seek ye my face ,his response,my heart said unto thee,thy face,Lord,will I seek(Psalm27:8). That was the main reason why David,and many others in the Bible were successful.
If my people who are called by my Name,will humble themselves and pray ,and seek my face,and turn from their wicked ways,then will I hear from heaven,and will forgive their sin,and will heal their land. [ 2 Chronicles 7:14].Won’t you seek God today,and see the difference He makes in your life. To get started go to the top of this blog,click on to the salvation page,and get started.
RELATIONSHIP
Relationship is something everybody in this world wants and craves for, we all need someone to relate to in some form or fashion. It drives us crazy if we don’t have someone to talk to, hold us, care for us, be there for us, or feed us, the list goes on and on.
Most people do some strange and extraordinary things just to have a relationship, then at the end of the day or in the long run they find out they don’t have one(a relationship) .
Some folks think they can have a good relationship, because they are educated, have money and all the trimmings that goes with it(house,car,boat,etc.) yet with all that and a bag of chips, they still can’t find the one that satisfies and completes them.
spouses, family, friends, sex, money, or drugs, can never fill that void or emptiness that constantly eats out your gut, and tears out your insides. But God can fill that emptiness.
I tried everything, and nothing or nobody gives me that sweet serenity, peace of mind, joy, or happiness,that God gives me ,through His son Jesus christ.
To experience and get or even understand what I am talking about you have to know God and have a close relationship with Him. The only way to have that relationship is through His son Jesus Christ.
You must understand that going to church is not a relationship, it’s only an external display to the world that you know there is a God. But when you have a relationship you can boldly declare,”In Him I live, and move, and have my being”.(Acts 17:28).
Or we can say,”For me to live is Christ, and to die is gain”.(Philippians 1:21)
All I am trying to tell you is that having a relationship with God, requires for you to know Him, love Him, serve Him, glorify Him, talk to Him, acknowledge Him, and live for Him. Listen you have to change your lifestyle if you want change; love, peace, joy, happiness and all the trimmings that goes with it having a relationship with God.
You can’t share God with no one, unless you are telling them about Him that’s the only time you can share Him. He should be number one in your life.
If you don’t know Him and want to know about Him, get your Bible, and start at John 3:15 – 17;John 14:6;Isaiah 45:21 – 22;Isaiah 59:1 – 2,that’s just to get you started now go the top of this blog and click on to the salvation page,and follow the instructions.
Now for those who believe you must have a righteous and close relationship with God in order to have that kind of peace & joy (John 14:27;Hebrews 13:20-21;John 16:23-24) which only can be received,when you have a righteous relationship with Him through His son (JESUS). When you get into that kind of relationship with God, there is no limitations to anything. May God bless, keep and guide you in His ways and will until He sends His son for us. TO GOD BE THE GLORY, HONOR, PRAISE, AND THANKS FOR USING ME TO INFORM YOU OF PART OF HIS WILL , PURPOSE AND DESIRE FOR US, TO BE HOLY BECAUSE HE IS HOLY. AMEN.
GODLINESS ATTRACTS PERSECUTION
Someone asked me how come you are a Christian now, and you going through so much problems. But can you imagine if I was not, it would have been worse, or I would be dead. “Yea,and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution”[ 2 Timothy 3:13].
You must understand the devil does not trouble those people he already has, he just uses them to frustrate, irritate, and pollute those who turn to Christ or is trying to turn to Christ. Then you have the pretenders, who act like everything is good,smiling on the outside, while dying on the inside. Jesus warns us in John 16:33,” These things I have spoken unto you,that in me you might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation, but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world”.
Imagine the devil using all kinds of tactics,to try to disturb your flow, to distract, frustrate and trample you,so you can be sorry that you stop serving his sorry behind. Psalms 34:19,informs us that,” Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord delivers him out of them all”. There are many occasions in the Bible where the Lord delivers his children,while in some cases,He goes through it with them,as He reminds us in Isaiah 43,either way we are never alone.
That is why we have to study the details of the contract (the Bible), so you know who you are and whose you are?
We were purchased with a price, Jesus blood and righteousness, we are now children of the most high God, because of Jesus. It is in the contract.
1 Peter 4:12 tells us trials are part of the contract, but Isa.43:2 tells us that,’when we walk through the fire, we shall not be burned’. Daniel ,and the three Hebrew boys,proved it.Family you better read the contract God gives us in the Bible, He is the only lawyer that never makes a mistake, and covers every details.
If you are not abiding under His protective custody, as Psalm 91 tells us,then you are not covered. Get God’s divine protection now by accepting His only begotten Son (Jesus) who is the only way to God. Just go to the top of this blog, click unto the salvation page, and get started.
LIP SERVICE,AND NO HEART
Some folks goes to church every Sunday,yet they are far from God. Why? Because,they are hypocrites says, Matthew 15:7~8,”..This people draweth near/nigh unto me with their mouth,and honoreth me with their lips,but their heart is far from me. But in vain they do worship me,teaching for doctrines the commandments of men”. However,Ezekiel 33:31,says it like this,”And they come unto thee as the people come,and they sit before thee as my people,and they hear thy words,but they will not do them ;for with their mouth they show much love,but their heart goeth after their covetousness”. James 1:22 tells us to be doers of the word,and not hearers only,deceiving your own selves. God told Samuel,that He don’t see as men see,because,men look at the outward appearance,but the Lord looketh on the heart. Therefore,you may fool men,but you can’t fool God. People,refuse to obey His word or keep His commandments. It’s plain and simple, “Thou shalt have no other gods before me (Exodus 20:3),so who or what have you put before God,is it self,money,your Job,house,car,spouse,what have you put before Him? “If you love me keep my commandments ” {John 14:15 & 23}.Some folks will be leaving from the church straight to hell,because they are not sincere. “But the hour cometh,and now is,when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth;for the Father seeketh such to worship Him. God is a Spirit,and they that worship Him must worship Him in spirit and truth” according to John 4:23~24. So how have you been worshipping Him? Have you been worshipping Him? If you haven’t here is an opportunity to start,just go to the top of this blog,click unto the salvation page,and get started,before it’s too late,then allow the indwelling Holy Spirit to lead and direct you for the rest of your life. To God be all the glory,praise,and thanks.
OBSERVE THE WARNINGS
Sin has become an acceptable lifestyle all over the world; and most people have ignored the warnings and signs of the destruction that has occurred, and is coming again, because of sin. How many signs and wonders are you going to ignore before you realize that what you are doing is wrong? There is no way around sin, you will not get away with it, and you will not go unpunished. If you are not punished now you will be later because,”the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord” (Romans 6:23). The Lord knoweth how to deliver the Godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgement to be punished as we see in 2 Peter 2:9.
“Now the Holy Spirit tells us clearly that in the last times some will turn away from what we believe; they will follow lying spirits and teachings that come from demons. These teachers are hypocrites and liars, they pretend to be religious, but their consciences are dead.” – 1 Timothy 4:1-2. This you see is obvious with the legalization of same-sex marriages. This shows us that people have gotten to the point where they are mocking God, as Jude 17-18 which warns us,”But beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ; How they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.” Are people aware of what’s happening? We also have confirmation in 2 Peter 3:3, “Knowing this first: that scoffers will come in the last days, walking according to their own lusts.”
In 1 John 2:15-22, we are warned just like Adam and Eve was warned, it says, “Do not love the world or the things in the world, if anyone loves the world the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world is the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, those things are not of the Father but of the world: And the world is passing away, and the lust of it: but he who does the will of God abides forever. Little children it is the last hour, and as you have heard the anti-christ is coming, even now many antichrist have come, by which we know it is the last hour…Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? he is the antichrist, who denies the Father and the Son. Whoever denies the Son, does not have the Father either, he who acknowledges the Son has the Father also.” Where do you stand? Or who do you stand for? God and His son Jesus Christ, who is the way, the truth, the giver of everlasting life, and the only way to God or the devil also known as the antichrist.
Some people take these warnings as a joke, but if you pause for a minute you will see that what 2 Timothy 3:1-7 is actually happening, it reads,”But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God. Having a form of Godliness, but denying its power, and from such people turn away. For of this sort, are those who creep into households, and make captives of gullible women loaded down with sins, led by various lusts, always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.” Are you part of this group?
You don’t have to be part of that group, who doesn’t care about life, you can escape death through His only begotten Son Jesus. Hear what God said, “Behold, the Lord’s hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; nor His ear heavy, that it cannot hear, but your iniquities have separated you from your God; and your sins have hidden His face from you”(Isaiah 59:1-2). He also warns us and wants us to know in, Hebrews 2:3,“How shall we escape if we neglect so great a salvation; which at first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us, by them that heard.” Are you willing and ready to take that step of faith? Are you ready to secure your place and be sealed by the Holy Spirit? “Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says: Today, if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts, as in the rebellion…” (Hebrews 3:7-8). This is the time, take advantage of this opportunity.
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, 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.
WHEN THE ENEMY COMES KNOCKING, IT’S TIME TO FIGHT
When the enemy comes knocking on the door of your life with sickness , debts, fears, doubts, trials and tribulation or anything bad, it’s time for you to fight back, and let him know that it is written, that, “When the enemy comes in like a flood the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against him” (Isaiah 59:19b). Then there is 2 Thessalonians 1:6 “Seeing it is a righteous thing with God to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you”.
Don’t ease up. Keep stomping on him, because, Jesus in Luke 10:19 says, “Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.” Remember also that we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places (Ephesians 6:12). However… though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds, casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ”(2 Corinthians 10:3-5).
Even if the enemy takes you off guard, or surprises you, 2 Chronicles 20:15 & 17 says,
“…Be not afraid nor dismayed by reason of this great multitude (of trouble, debt, or whatever); for the battle is not yours, but God’s. Ye shall not need to fight in this battle, set yourselves, stand ye still, and see the salvation of the Lord…”
You don’t have to fight all the time, sometimes God wants you to just stand still, and let Him handle it. Unfortunately, if you don’t know Him and the power of His might, or have an exclusive relationship with Him, or if you don’t ask Him, how is He going to fight for you?
However, you can change your relationship status today, by going to the top if this blog, clicking on to the salvation page, and follow the instructions. Only then can you boldly declare Isaiah 54:17, “No weapon that is formed against me shall prosper, and every tongue that shall rise against me in judgement I shall condemn. Because, this is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is from Me, saith the LORD.” Psalm 91:11 says, “For He shall give His angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all His ways.” So welcome to the body of Christ.
ARE YOU IN OR OUT ?
Are you living,in the will of God or out? This is not the time to be guessing or wondering? Whose standards are you living by to solidify that you are in or out? Who qualifies you to be in or out ? Only God can.“But I tell you this, brethren, flesh and blood cannot become partakers of Eternal salvation, and inherit or share in the Kingdom of God; Nor does the perishable(that which is decaying) inherit or share in the imperishable(the immortal). Take notice I tell you a mystery (a secret truth, an event decreed by the hidden council of God). We shall not all fall asleep (in death), but we shall all be changed (transformed); In a moment in the twinkling of an eye, at the sound of the last trumpet call. For a trumpet will sound, and the dead in Christ will be raised imperishable (free and immune from decay called sin), and we shall be changed (transformed)…”(1 Corinthians 15:50-55). So are you in or out?
Don’t be destroyed because of a lack of knowledge as written in Hosea 4 :6 ” My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge,because thou hast rejected knowledge,I will also reject you from being priest for me,because you have forgotten the law of your God,I will also forget your children.”Don’t allow God to forget you like those people, because you reject His gift of His son (Jesus Christ). In John 3 :16-17 and confirmed in 2 peter 3:9 it tells us that,God does not wish for anyone to perish,but all be saved. Now that you have this information and knowledge,do you want to be in or out ? Hebrews 2:3 says,” How shall we escape,if we neglect so great salvation…” Time is running out,one way or another,the life expectancy of people has reduced drastically,the choice is yours to be in or out.
This is not the time to play around or think that you have plenty of time. Isaiah 55:6 urges us to,”Seek the Lord while He may be found, call upon Him while He is near, let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts; let him return to the Lord, and He will have mercy on him; and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon.” This does not mean that God is going anywhere, but you will, if you don’t accept God’s gift of His only begotten son (Jesus). The choice of where is yours, that’s why I ask, if you are in or out, because if you are in then you are heaven bound, but if you are out then you are hell bound. You can change all that right now by going to the top of this blog, then click on to the salvation page, and follow the instructions. Then, start living according to Romans 12:1-2 and God’s commands.
All glory, praise, honor, and thanks go to God, the Immortal, Invisible, and only wise one, who used me as one of His messengers to get His message out to the lost and un-saved, in every language, to every country, to every nation, I pray that He will give all who read this and those who pass it on the spiritual necessities to comprehend what the Spirit of the Lord has to say to His people, in Jesus Mighty Name I pray, Amen.
JESUS IS OUR ASSURANCE
Why wait till you hit the bottom to seek God? Why not make Jesus,your first option instead of your last? It’s always when people are at an intersection or cross-roads between a rock and a hard place, that they know who Jesus is,and try to seek Him. It’s the only time, they call on Him day and night, that’s the time they get spiritual and start to sing blessed assurance Jesus is mine, and that’s the time you will have to repent from your sins, then accept and believe on Jesus Christ, before God can truly help you.
Assurance is a positive declaration intended to give confidence. It is also a pledge or guarantee made by someone; but times have changed, and people have changed and the meanings have escape clauses in them. For example; marriage used to be the ultimate assurance that only death will separate a man and a woman who God has joined together in holy matrimony, but that has changed. Politicians promise to bring changes to the community, and when they get in nothing changes.
People used to have the assurance that when a door is closed, God will open a window, that allows us to climb out, without a scratch, bruise or blemish. What has happened to our confidence in our God who owns the universe, and everything in it? How easily we forget that Philippians 4:19 tells us that, “My God shall supply all your needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.” In 1 Peter 5:7, His word tells us to cast all our care on Him, because He cares for us.
How did we ever allow the devil to implant doubt and fear in our minds, when God clearly tells us in 2 Timothy 1:7 that, He (God) never gives us the spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind. So now that you realize that fear is a spirit from the devil get rid of it, cast it out, rebuke it, and bind it in the Name of Jesus Christ, and loose power, love, and a sound mind.
I could fill this blog with assurance scriptures, but if you don’t read them, meditate on them, exercise or put them into practice what good is it. It’s like someone gives you a million dollars, and you never spend it, because you either forget that you have it, you just don’t know how to spend it, or what to do with it, so you just sit on it while you are hungry and in need.
Listen, it’s time to accept God’s positive declarations in the Bible,which assure us of His promises. For example: eternal life (1 John 2:25), He will add everything we need if we seek Him first (Matthew 6:33), He will direct our paths, if we acknowledge Him(Proverbs 3 :5-6), He will never leave or forsake me (Hebrew 13:5, James 1:5), nothing or no one can separate me from His love(Romans 8:38-39).Wow! This is exciting, and the Bible is full of assurances.
Thank God for His word that informs us of our assurances through His son Jesus Christ. Do you have this assurance? What are you waiting for ? Do you want it? It’s already paid for by God’s son (Jesus Christ) His ultimate gift to us. So just go to the top of this blog, click on to the salvation page, and follow the instructions, and for further studies and information, go to www.riversofrevival.com.
All glory, praise, honor, and thanks go to God for using me to write this message. I pray that He will give you everything you need spiritually to read and understand His messages through the Bible, this blog or whatever means necessary. I pray for you to seek Him. In Jesus name, amen.
