What you believe, and meditate on, and go over and over in your mind and what you speak, can be a life changer for the best. Oh you may have started out in such a destitute situation. Then you get a hold of the good news Gospel. You make a decision of quality to shut down the noise of other things. You press into the vision the word creates by the power of the Holy Spirit, seeing yourself as God sees you and no other way. You combat every, every, every, thought that contradicts what the Almighty has declared about you. Then you begin to take on that purpose that God originally planned for your life. Then, when a counter attack arises, circumstances arise and try to stand up like a billboard before you, declaring, ( because circumstances declare) that the word of God has failed, things are going to get back like they were, your body can’t hold up under these symptoms nor your mind. Suggesting to you to just let go and let negative fate be your lot. But because you determined that God’s Word is law, you continue to persevere. You are lifted into the position that God designed, having your well-being in his heart and mind.
Hebrew 10:22,23
22 Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water. 23 Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)
(The Nations) refer to a large body of people united by common descent, history, culture, or language, inhabiting a particular country or territory. Life hasn’t been to sweet for many. Third world countries have suffered tremendously, but for different reasons then the more advanced and highly sophisticated ones. As a matter of fact the more highly sophisticated nations sufferings stem from a different type of pressure. All suffering wether it is released into a highly advance culture or one that is not as developed originates from one regime, that men either refused to recognize or are unconcerned about. (One Other group exists. There are still those who have not had the Gospel preached to them and are made victims by the leaders of their nations due to the rejection of the Gospel.) What we must realize and not turn a deaf ear to is that there is a spiritual nation behind the nations. Their is an outlaw spiritual world which never ceases to manipulate the minds of those who refuse to honor God’s requirements. We even see this as men declare their faith, and say that Jesus is their Savior but refuse to serve him as Lord. ( We read in the Old Testament that judgement starts first of all with the house of God. Then Jesus reiterates this in the first few chapters of the book of Revelation and throughout the Gospels). God said, the nations, ( those who opened their doors), were to be impacted for good, by the standard that Jesus set forth, “Love one Another as I have Loved you”. And Praise be to God there are those who have followed more closely our Savior words and we see pockets of nationals enjoying the beauty of Salvation together with each other. But to those who have clung to their former preferences, before salvation, we see the suffering of many nations, and many rebellious to the Gospels because of these things. This has been a theme throughout history. Many followers of Christ continue to allow themselves to be subdued by their flesh and the devices of Satan. It’s a very sad picture for some who refuse to repent because when one refuses to do obey God’s word, they deceive their own heart. So wether he be a man of the cloth, or a lay-person, even though it appears that there are no consequences for the things they are doing, he or she will stand before God’s judgement seat and give an account for everything they have done in this life. He may reap what he sows in the next life if the believers aren’t compliant enough with the Holy Ghost now. Remember Ananias and Sapphira?
We pray for those who have felt the rejection of their brothers to continue to persevere. Think about Timothy in the early church. God has deemed that those who hold on to him without denouncing their faith, (having walked through the bitter cast systems orchestrated by Satan but carried out by men,) will be able to walk down the streets of the city and partake of the tree of life, who’s leaves are for the healing of the nations.
Revelation 22:8
down the middle of the great street of the city. On each side of the river stood the tree of life, bearing twelve crops of fruit, yielding its fruit every month. And the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nation
These are words of Jesus
Revelations 3: 11-13
11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown. 12 Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name. 13 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
…when He has already worked it out? Sometimes we must remind ourselves of this important fact. God knew the end from the beginning; before we were ever born. That is one of the things that makes Him God. Now, the very God that fellowships with us today, (while we use our faith), never leaves us in the onset of a sudden trial. No, He wants us to just keep continuing our fellowship, without loosing our composure. Nothing has changed, we don’t even have to flinch. The reason being is that, just as He knows the end from the beginning, He already has a plan prepared to keep us safe, strong, increase us, preserve us, deliver and honor us. WOW! Isn’t that Good News? His plan was mapped out before we were even born.
Psalms 46:1 God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
Psalms 91:15 He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honor him.
That means her too not just him. Lol. Be Blessed Today!
We want to keep our faith ship, in shipshape lol. There is a lighthouse aboard with us. He is the Holy Ghost. For we who operate by faith, attention must be given to the Holiness of our vessels. So that when we sail into the next life, (for faith causes us to sail no doubt amen,) we won’t be fearful at the passage that lies ahead. The principals of these verses are enunciated in the New Testament, but let’s look at them here:
Psalms 15 15 Lord, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill? 2 He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart. 3 He that backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour. 4 In whose eyes a vile person is contemned; but he honoureth them that fear the Lord. He that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not. 5 He that putteth not out his money to usury, nor taketh reward against the innocent. He that doeth these things shall never be moved.
Proverbs 6:16-19
16 These six things doth the Lord hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him: 17 A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, 18 An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, 19 A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren
God is a Love God, and he requires trust, or “Faith.” That’s what Faith is. When you were a baby, naturally your parents took care of you because you were helpless without your parents. A new born baby Christian is like this, provided there is proper nurturing of the more mature around them. But that baby Christian has an advantage if it cleaves to God in its infancy stage, for God can get that baby Christian to the right places if it will cleave to the God of love. The same God that saved can keep if he is trusted. Now, as a natural child grows and develops the trust for his parents, “talking about everything being equal,” the child trusts that parent because the parent has always taken care of him, or her. There is a solid trust and because of this there is a solid love. So when we talk about love and trusting God, if that baby Christian doesn’t cleave to God as a natural child does it natural parents, trust will break up.
Our Father God has said that there was an enemy out to stop us, and if we would keep close to Him in fellowship, and obedience to His word, then nothing could harm us. Our Faith or trust would be as the natural child’s toward his or her parents. Nothing in between, nothing to injure, because we stay in His arms through his word and fellowship. But there is GREAT MERCY. If we have experienced great loss and tragic events, God is reaching out to us and showing us the way back into a secure place. Many years ago, I learned this lesson. God said to me, I will help you, I will build you back up, I will strengthen your mind, I will keep you. I will be with you in trouble, deliver and honor you. Once I was able to relax and trust him again, He has never ceased to fulfill those words in my life. God my Father is Gracious. He want to be gracious to you.
Dwelling in the secret place is a full commitment to diligence, let’s start again, let’s begin. ❤️
Psalms 91
1 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty
Would God ask us to do something he was unwilling to do himself? Think about this, Peter asked Jesus, “how many times shall my brother sin and I forgive him till seven times? Jesus answer was starting and astounding. Jesus reply was till 70 times 7 in a day Matthew 18:22, but wait a minute, you have to look at that in both directions. That means if you miss the mark and sin, how many times will God the father forgive you? Would he require something that he himself was unwilling to do? The answer is no. Take this to heart and go free. Don’t let the devil lie to you and say God will not forgive you anymore. Most of the time we’re in a growth process. No, go ahead and serve the Lord without that condemnation. ( there is another group of people that could care less, we are not talking about those who would play roulette with God.) You can jump forward, and get well and succeed if you never let this truth depart. What he did in the Old Testament, he does more through Jesus our Lord.
Psalms 103: 1-6
1 (A Psalm of David.) Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name. 2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits: 3 Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases; 4 Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies; 5 Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle’s. 6The LORD executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed.
1 John 1: 9 9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
In the highways, across the seas, through the thoroughfares, In hamlets and cottages, in high places, seeking. Seeking for those who have arrayed themselves with garments of meekness and humbleness of heart, that we may bestow upon them the inheritance promised their fathers and show great mercy to their seed in their generation.
Psalms 37:11
“But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace
Matthew 5:5 5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth ◄ 2 Chronicles 16:9
For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him.
Who has the legal right to try the case. Is it within local, state or Federal control? It’s good to find out who is in charged when situations get hot and heavy. Did you know that there is a greater entity at large that overrides those mentioned above? When direct violations occur against the Holy Ghost, and there is know reconciliation, but a further defiant boast, then the adversary of all adversaries comes upon the scene and wreaks havoc in the heavenly arena where pestilence and famine is seen. Lawlessness puts unsuspecting persons under Satan’s jurisdiction. Then to the innocent ones who have no true knowledge of their Christian faith, great sufferings and intensified affliction, while the earth convulses and shakes. We are here to teach all men to follow the precepts that the Lord himself has set before us. God said my people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.
◄ 1 Peter 5:8 ►
Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:
Ohhhh, the peace, the unashamed heart. The confidence, the free following fellowship, that simply turns to hear what the Father says. Nothing hindering, no hesitation, a continuous communion, with the God of Power and Might. This is the testimony of those who chose a life outside of strife.
1 John3:18-22
18 My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth. 19 And hereby we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before him. 20 For if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things. 21 Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, then have we confidence toward God. 22 And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight.
He is moving all around the earth. Visiting hungry hearts, filling them to capacity with his joy. For being born again is the way to enter in. Jesus Saves, Jesus Saves! The announcement has been made. Would you like your hungry heart to be filled? God is moving by His Spirit upon your life right now. Say Jesus, come into my heart, I make you the Lord of my life. Forgive me of my sins. I turn from them.
There is no greater joy than knowing that Jesus is inside of your heart. You will radiate peace.
Hebrews 7:25
Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them
