It Is A Gift of God

We praise You Father. We magnify You. We lift up Your Holy and Righteous name. You alone are God and You are God all by Yourself. (Isaiah 37; Psalm 86; Deuteronomy 4; 2 Kings 19)

El Shaddai, You are more than enough; all sufficiency is in thee. (Psalm 91) You are He who is, was, and is to come (Revelation 1). We praise You King Jesus! We honor You! Have Your way Father! Your will, Your plan, and Your purpose be done according to Your time!  You are a God of perfection. You do all things perfectly; and we thank You. You are a God who cannot and will not lie. (Numbers 23; Titus 1; Hebrews 6;)

Glorify thyself in Your children: the Called, Chosen, Set-Apart--the Elect of God. Let us not think more highly of ourselves than we aught to (Romans 12), for we are nothing; absolutely nothing without You! Just as Apostle Paul, who said that he was the least of them and that if he boasts, he will boast in his infirmaties that the power of God may rest upon him (2 Corinthians 12).

Like Apostle Paul, "though I would desire to glory, I shall not be a fool; for I will say the truth lest I should be exalted above measure through the, many, many revelations that the Lord Jesus Christ has made known to me." "For this reason the Lord has given me a thorn in the flesh, to keep me humble lest I should think of myself more highly than I should. (2 Corinthians 12)

For this thing I prayed to the Lord, over and over and over again that this situation would change. The Holy Spirit said to me, I am with you whereever you go (Joshua 1)--even until the end of the world (Matthew 28). My grace is sufficient for my strength is made perfect in weakness. (2 Corinthinians 12)

Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong. (2 Corinthians 12)  For I am fully persuaded that neither depth nor height, nor things present, nor things to come shall separate me from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus. (Romans 8)

For by grace through faith are you saved and not of yourselves.

It is a gift of God. (Ephesians 2)

Yes And Amen

Father God in the precious and adorable name of Your son Jesus. We come humbly yet boldly before the throne of grace to praise You and to honor You. You are the most high God, you alone are God. There is no God beside You.

We praise You and adore You. You are El Shaddai. You are Jehovah Tsidkenu. You are more than enough. You are He who was, is and is to come. Lord God you told us in Your word that every hair on our head is numbered. We thank you Lord that You know our downsitting and our uprising and you know our thoughts before we even think them. You are always a breath away. There is nothing hid from You. You go before us and come after us. You surround us on all sides. We are saturated in the blood of Jesus; the Lamb of God, who taketh away the sins of the world.

If we had 10,000 tongues we could not sufficiently thank You enough. Father, we love You. We honor You, we praise You and we give You all the glory. In the name of Jesus; yes and amen.

Lead You Into All Truth

"The city of Corinth was steeped in all the sins, but the gospel still made a way through. Apostle Paul gave the Corinthians a list of sinful behaviors that characterize those who will not enter God’s kingdom, then he declared, “And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God” (1 Corinthians 6:11). (Courtesy of GotQuestions.org)

We are not here to call out sins. Jesus did not come into the world to condemn the world but that the world through Him might be saved. (John 3) “And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.”( Galatians 6) We must never grow weary or tired of being on call 24/7/365 for Jesus.

Apostle Paul speaks about love (1 Corinthians 13) and then tells followers of Christ to stay separate from the world. “Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?” (2 Corinthians)

For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh--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. For we dare not compare ourselves with someone who measures themself by themself, and compares themself among others who compare themselves with each other; are not wise. (2 Corinthians) But he that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord. For not he that commendeth himself is approved, but whom the Lord commendeth.

We aren't a perfect people we are a forgiven people; and we will not use God's "seven times seven times" forgiveness as an excuse (Matthew 18). Just as Paul was an ambassador of Christ to the Corinthians, we too, are ambassadors for Christ (2 Corinthians), as we live in the world in these earthly bodies. And yes, sometimes we feel inadequate or unworthy because we are in our human bodies. Like Apostle Paul we have not yet attained but we press toward the mark to win the prize of the high calling in Christ Jesus! (Philippians 3) 

You can't do this on your own. The Holy Spirit will keep you, guide you, and lead you in to all truth. (John 16) 

Until The End of Time

I am a jealous God (Exodus 34). I called you. I elected you. I chose you and set you apart for My glory (Jeremiah 1). Serve Me. Honor Me. Acknowledge Me. Worship Me in Spirit and in truth. (John 4) Without the Spirit of God you are none of His. (Romans 8) Are you lonely? Are you experiencing loneliness? Have you become battle-weary? It is because you are fighting a battle that is not yours. It is because you have turned away from the God that called You from the womb. I put you in the battle that I specifically prepared you well in advance for. Have you become carnal-minded like my chosen people Israel who turned their backs on me--every time I blessed them and brought them out of dessert places--over and over and over again. My servant Moses whom I spoke with on multiple occasions did not get to enter into the promised land; although I let him see what it looked like from afar (Numbers 21). 

Set your sights on God. He will go before you and come behind you. He will hold your hand and never let it go. Jesus said, you are my sheep. I know your voice and you know mine. (John 10) Believe God. There is no greater love than a man lay down his life for His sheep. (John 15) You are My sheep. Whatever you do shall prosper (Psalm 1). I have made your enemies your footstool (Psalm 110). Stay up on your stool. Be humble. Nothing, not anything shall harm you without My permission; and then, it comes to strengthen you. All things work together for good to them who love Me. (Romans 8)--the good; the bad; and the ugly. I am God and my ways are past finding out. (Romans 11) I have foreordained you and no weapon formed against you shall prosper (Isaiah 54).

I put you in that pit of Hell, that I may get the glory! I am the God of recompense, mercy, justice and vengeance. (Deuteronomy 32) Now glorify Me. Magnify Me! Let your light so shine among hu(man) that they may see your good works and glorify your Father which is in heaven (Matthew 5). I am God and there is none beside Me (Isaiah 45). I am God all by Myself (Isaiah 44). Now go forward. Run through troops and jump over walls. (Psalm 18) Do exploits. (Daniel 11) I am with you whereever you go (Joshua 1). Don't back up; get down on your knees. I will never let go of your hand. (Hebrews 13; Isaiah 41; John 10) Never! I am with you until the end of time! (Matthew 28)

Will You Let Him In?

Wise as a serpent. Harmless as a dove. (Matthew 10) Walk in wisdom towards them who are without redeeming the time for the days are evil. (Colossians 4) Let this proclamation be known to all mankind that Jesus Christ is Lord (Philippians 2). Sing praises to the Lord! (Psalm 47) Lift up praises of thanksgiving to the Father, for He is good and His mercies endureth forever. (Psalm 136) It is He who keeps us and not we ourselves.  It is He who has made us.  He is the author and the finisher of our faith (Hebrews 12).

Oh magnify the Lord with me and let us exhalt His name together! (Psalm 34) How can one chase one thousand and two put ten thousand to flight unless God is with them? (Joshua 3) If God be for you He is more than the whole world against you. (Romans 8) Praise the Lord!  Magnify Him!

Apostle Paul said that I speak in tongues more than all of you. When we speak in unknown tongues we speak to God. Only God can understand. Paul writes that it is better that you prophesy; for when you prophesy, you prophesy unto hu(man). (1 Corinthinians chapters 12, 13, and 14). Preach, teach, exhort! Walk in the Spirit and not after the flesh (Galatians 5) that Christ may get the glory. Wisdom is worthy of her children. (Matthew 11; Luke 7) You are Christ's and you were bought with a price. (1 Corinthians 6) Allow the Spirit (of God) to dwell in you and teach you all things and bring all things to your rememberance. (John 14) Christ is the hope of glory. (Colossians 1)

Jesus Christ stands at the door of your heart and knocks. (Revelation 3) Will you let Him in?  

Hung on The Cross For You!

Watch and pray because your adverary the devil walketh about as a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour. (1 Peter 5) Be humble.  Submit yourself to the Word of God.  Let the Holy Spirt have it's way.  Be meek.  Owe no man anything but to love them. (Romans 13) You are God's and you are bought with a price. (1 Corinthians 6) The price was the Blood of Jesus. Fret not thyself because of evil doers, for they will soon be cast away (Psalm 37)  Jesus tells us to let the wheat and the tare grow together and He will separate them when He comes (Matthew 13).

The earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof; them and they who dwell therein. (Psalm 24) Be of good cheer. (John 16)  Seek peace and pursue it. (Psalm 34)  Follow Christ.  It is not about "them", it is not about "they".  It is about "you".  Be holy. Be righteous and the God of peace that passes all understanding will comfort your heart (Philippians 4).  Walk in resurection power.  Jesus is not dead; He is alive and He sitteth at the right hand of the Father making intercession for you (Romans 8) .....because it's about "you"; what you do; what you think; what you say; what you feel; how you respond; how you behave; according to the Word of God. You've got the power! Holy Ghost power! Child of God, you are not harrassed, persecuted, tortured, and placed in the pit of Hell--according to God's will, purpose and plan for your predestined life because you have no power. THINK! Jesus went down into Hell--He was buried in a grave after being hung on the cross.  After He finished taking care of His business setting the captives free in Hell; He came up out of the grave, appeared to a few people; and they watched as He ascended up into heaven.  His earthly body was taken up to continue His heavenly ministry.  (Acts 1) Glory to God! The devil had no clue that Jesus was on assignment for God. NO CLUE!

Like a sheep led to the slaughter He opened not his mouth. (John 1; Exodus 12; Isaiah 53; Acts 8; 1 Peter 1) Your Lord and Savior was spat upon, cursed at, whipped and stripped naked; publicly; and then hung on the cross--for you!

It's About You, Child of God

It's about you. It's not about anyone or anybody else.  It's about you, Child of God.  It's about your reaction, your response, your thoughts. You are your enemy. The bible tells us that Satan and his cohorts have no power or authority over a child of God.  Every attack against a child of God is to cause a disruption in your flesh....your thoughts, your actions, your emotions...are you keeping up?  

The Word of God tells us that before you were formed in the womb (Jeremiah 1; Psalm 139) God knew you.  The Word of God tells us that those God foreknew He also predestinated. (Romans 8) That means that everything that has taken place in your life since you came out of the womb was ordained by God.  Don't feel ashamed. Dont boast or be bragadocious. God has put your sins as far away from you as the east is from the west, never to rise again. (Psalm 103)  No contrived accusation, no slander, no lie, no mocking and no mimicking--no weapon formed against you shall prosper. (Isaiah 54)  Greater is He who is in You than He who is in the World (1 John 4). Jesus told us that in the world we shall have tribulation (John 16) but to be of good cheer because He has overcome the world. Jesus told us to not think it strange when these firey trials come upon us (1 Peter 4) because He has already told us that they would. There is nothing happening or that has happened or that will happen in the life of a Child of God that God does not already know. The Lord knows our thoughts before we even think them. (Psalm 139) There is no temptation common to man that Jesus has not already made a way of escape (1 Corinthians 10).

The Lord does all things well. Take God at His Word. He cannot fail and He will not lie.  (Hebrews 6)  His Word will accomplish that which He set it forth to do and it will not return to Him void (Isaiah 55).  The work that the Lord has begun in you, He will perform it until the day Christ Jesus calls you home or until Christ Jesus returns; whichever comes first.  You belong to the Lord. Your biggest challenge; your biggest struggle will be/is to humble yourself before God and hu(man). 

If you have not done so already, repent, and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and you shall receive the Spirit of God (1 Corinthians chapters 12, 13, and 14) and gift of the Holy Ghost. (Acts 2) For John truly baptized with water; but you shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days after. (Acts 1) Jesus said, "except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God." (John 3)

If you have accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior but have not experienced the spiritual gift of speaking in unknown tongues as the Spirit of God gives utterance (1 Corinthians chapters 12, 13, and 14) pray and ask God to bless you with this heavenly gift and He will.  (Acts 2; 1 Corinthians 14)
