PURIFY YOURSELF

Sin, no matter what kind, will separate us from the love of God. And when we don’t confess our sins to God, as 1 John 1:9 tells us, then the covenant promises has been broken and it leaves us open and vulnerable to the enemy’s attacks on our lives. In Matthew 26:41 Jesus tells us to watch and pray that we enter not into temptation, because the spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak. Despite of our trials we must remember at all times that nothing can separate us from the love of God, and if God is for us who dare to be against us as we see in Romans 8:31-39. There is a song that says, “It is no secret what God can do, what He has done for others He will do for you with arms wide open He will pardon you.”

1 John 1:9 “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”

The Lord does not want us to be sad and depressed when things go wrong. As He told Joshua in verse 10 of Joshua chapter 7, He wants us to get up, confess our sins and move on. Most of us sin and try to find excuses as to why we sin. But God wants us to get it out the way so that He can bless us and so we’ll be more than conquerors through Christ Jesus. In Joshua 7:13 He said, “Get up and purify yourself,” or “sanctify yourself,” according to the King James Version, “in preparation for tomorrow.” God wants us to get up and sanctify ourselves so that He can use us and bless us according to His will. For Him to do anything for us we must be pure and holy.

The only winning strategy is the one God strategizes; which starts with repentance and purification by the blood of Jesus, which opens the doors for God to act on our behalf.

Have you allowed sin to keep you from having a fruitful meaningful relationship with God? Are you a backslider because of a sin you don’t believe is forgivable? or have you committed a sin and don’t know how to get back up into a right relationship with God? Repent to the Lord God and turn away from the very sin that’s holding you back from Him. Receive His forgiveness and embrace His love. Visit the salvation page if you’ve never given your life over to the Lord.

KNOWING GODS WILL

To know Gods will, you must first know Him; to know Him, you must know His word, and follow the word, which is His only begotten son Jesus Christ, who came to introduce us to the true, and living God (John 1:1-14). ‘For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son’ (John 3:16-17), so now we know, that it’s not Gods will for anyone to perish, but for all of us to have eternal life.

To truly know Gods will, there are certain criteria, we must follow: we must accept the gift of His son Jesus Christ(John 14:6), we need to confess our sins, and ask for forgiveness(repentance)(1 John 1:9,Proverbs 28:13), we must seek Him, and His righteousness first (Matthew 6:33).

To be righteous, you must be in right standing with God (Romans 8:10,2 Corinthians 5:21). To be in right standing with God, you must deny yourself, obey His commands and will. You see folks to know God’s will you must know Him, and the power of His might (Psalm 46:8-10). In all your ways, you must acknowledge Him, and He will direct your path(Proverbs 3:6), we know His will when we study His word, ‘study to show yourself approved unto God’ (2 timothy 2:15), we know His will through prayers, ‘confess our faults, and pray for each other, that we may be healed, the effectual fervent prayer of the righteous person availeth much'(James 5:16). ‘For I know the plans I have for you’, says the Lord,’plans to prosper you, and not to hurt you, plans to give you hope, and a future.Then you will call upon me,and go pray to me, and I will listen to you, you will seek me, and find me, when you search for me with all your heart, I will be found by you’, says the Lord,’and will bring you back from captivity’..(Jeremiah 29:11-14).

For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and His ears are open, unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil (1 Peter 3:12). Friends you must trust in the Lord with all your hearts ,and never, ever rely on your own understanding, or your friends (Proverbs 3:5-6). This is the only way you will prove, what is that good, acceptable, and perfect will of God (Romans 12:2). Friends if you seek Him, pray, fast, repent daily, stay in righteousness, meditate on His word, cast down every knowledge, and thought that is not of God, or in His word (the Holy Bible), you will know Gods will, and His plans for you.

If for whatever reason, you don’t know God, His gift of His only begotten son Jesus the Christ, then go to the top of this blog, click onto the salvation page, and follow the instructions, it will be the best thing you ever do, in your entire life. I give God, the glory, praise, honor, and thanks for using me to release His message, to the saved, and unsaved, I pray they will be obedient to His will, and ways in Jesus Name, amen.

SIN IS SEPERATION

Most people don’t realize that, all sins, lead to some sort of separation. From cheating on your spouse, to turning your back on God. However, the consequences are somewhat different, they both lead to divorce, but one leads to eternal death. There was a time years ago, we were doomed forever. Because of our multitude of sins, we used to live just like the rest of the world, full of sin, and obeying satan: who is the spirit at work in the hearts of those who refuse to obey God. We were born with an evil nature, and we were under Gods anger. But God is so rich in mercy, and loves us so much, even while we were doomed because of sin (Ephesians 2:1-4), He found a way to save us, and that’s through His only begotten son Jesus Christ(John 3:16-17, John 6:40,John 14:6). God saved us by His special favor when you believed, and we can’t take credit for anything, it is a gift from God, salvation is not a reward for the good things we did, so no one has any bragging rights. Yes, friends we are Gods masterpiece, who He has created new, through Christ Jesus(Ephesians 2:8-10).

Can you see the devastation, and the destruction we would face, if God didn’t send Jesus Christ. Folks we had no hope, no promise, and no God, and what is sad, is that we didn’t know Him then, and He sent His son to lead, show, tell, and guide us to Him, and people refuse to accept, and believe that God sent Jesus so that we have a way to repent. Imagine, we were separated from God, His hope, and His promises, He sent Jesus, to break down the walls of separation, and become the bridge to bring us closer to our true creator, and people, are refusing Him, seeking someone else, now I understand the meaning of (Hosea 4:6)’my people are destroyed for lack of knowledge’. Why can’t we just, ‘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, and return unto the Lord before its too late…our thoughts and ways are not like His, it’s billions of miles apart'(Isaiah 55:6-9). Jesus  broke down the barriers of separation, so we are no longer strangers, aliens, and foreigners, but citizens, sons, daughters, and joint heirs of the promise of eternal life(John 3:16).

I just can’t figure out how some one could refuse, or neglect so great a salvation (Hebrews 2:3). I pray that God, the glorious Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, may give you the spirit of wisdom, and revelation, so that you may know Him better, and the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that, you may know the hope to which He has called you, and you will see the riches of His glorious inheritance in the saints, and His incomparably great power, for us who believe, that power is like the working of His mighty strength. (Ephesians 1:17-19).
