Ohh thank God! We never have to be deceived. God has given us a sure fire way to find out exactly what’s in a person’s heart. This is such good news. You see where partnerships & relationships and even friendships are concerned, never forget this rule:
A man’s heart stands in his mouth.
Listen to them talk under pressure, what’s done in there will come up to the surface. In doing this you can be warned.
God grant you mercy to hear their heart.
Matthew 12:34b 34 ..For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.
A Remedy
If You’ve made Mistakes, don’t bail, God will guide you through the gale. He will navigate you and your associates to safety.
Psalm 91:15 (ASV) He shall call upon me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble: I will deliver him, and honor him.
My dear brothers and sisters I love you dearly as you know, but listen to this admonition please. It will save you much loss. As long as the devil can keep you in the Arena of reason he will whip you in every combat and every battle.
But if you will hold him in the arena of faith, you will defeat him in every combat and every battle.
You can never rise above the level of your confession.
The moment you say that you can’t, doubt will rise up like a giant and bind you.
But if you set your sights on what God says you are, ( and hold it there, not letting go in the contradicting circumstances of life.) You will rise to the level of what God has already said about you.
If your in a area of hesitation, unsure, unsettled, skepticism, then the devil will knock you over.
Determine to have a bulldog tenacity where the word of God is concerned. Take each promise literally, putting it into your heart, day after day night after night speaking that word down into your heart like he told Joshua knowing this:
The eyes of the Lord run to and fro, throughout the whole earth to show himself strong on the behalf of those who heart is perfect toward him. 2 Chronicles 16:9
So when Satan challenges the message of healing, the message of deliverance, the message of God’s provision in your life. You use up and meet the devil with “ it is written “ and run him off your property, out of your flesh, out of your relationships.
The Bible says submit yourself therefore unto God, (you do that by submitting to his word) resist the devil, and he will flee from you. James 4:7
Flee means to run from as in terror. This makes you dangerous where he is concerned, so definitely stay with it so you can defeat him continually.
As your growing and maturing in the things of the Lord, a greater sensitivity to the Holy Spirit’s direction is needed as well. For He will maneuver you around in a safer manner. For it is the intent of the Lord that you live a long and satisfied life Psalms 91:16, Eph. 6:1-3. Seek to grow in such away, that the Holy Spirit can lead in a whisper, then you will move about in ways of “Grace,” ( His wisdom on your life.) and continue a long and protected race.
Acts 22:17-21
17 And it came to pass, that, when I was come again to Jerusalem, even while I prayed in the temple, I was in a trance; 18 And saw him saying unto me, Make haste, and get thee quickly out of Jerusalem: for they will not receive thy testimony concerning me. 19 And I said, Lord, they know that I imprisoned and beat in every synagogue them that believed on thee: 20 And when the blood of thy martyr Stephen was shed, I also was standing by, and consenting unto his death, and kept the raiment of them that slew him. 21 And he said unto me, Depart: for I will send thee far hence unto the Gentiles.
Mark 3:6,7
6 And the Pharisees went forth, and straightway took counsel with the Herodians against him, how they might destroy him.
7 But Jesus withdrew himself with his disciples to the sea: and a great multitude from Galilee followed him, and from Judaea, 8And from Jerusalem, and from Idumaea, and from beyond Jordan; and they about Tyre and Sidon, a great multitude, when they had heard what great things he did, came unto him.
Everyone has some melody that their singing. Some sing of a desire to be loved, some sing the blues. Some are singing a song of discontent, but Faith’s life song is what we present.To experience life at it’s best, take up the chorus, both day and night. Sing with every fiber of your being. Sing in the winter, sing in the spring. Let your melody fill the air, and walk with God in a very rare, lifestyle set aside for the masses and for the throng, who dare to make faith their life’s song.
Hebrew 11:32-35
32 And what more shall I say? I do not have time to tell about Gideon, Barak, Samson and Jephthah, about David and Samuel and the prophets, 33 who through faith conquered kingdoms, administered justice, and gained what was promised; who shut the mouths of lions, 34 quenched the fury of the flames, and escaped the edge of the sword; whose weakness was turned to strength; and who became powerful in battle and routed foreign armies. 35 Women received back their dead, raised to life again.
Entering into the fullness of all that God has, is the only way to live in this life filled with joy and great satisfaction. But this includes following all that Jesus commands.
John said in Matthew 3:22: I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire.
He was speaking of what Jesus would do for his own.
John 20:22 22 And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost, (for that’s where they were sealed with the Holy Spirit {John 20:22}) He gave them this commandment.
Don’t leave on your assignment until the promise of the Spirit come unto you.
(Luke 24:49 And behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.).
Then, when Jesus commissioned his Apostle to go out into all the world, he told them that these signs will follow them that believe what they preach.
Mark 16: 17,18 17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; 18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.
Brothers and Sisters that’s you and me! Since your a believer, enter into the fullness of what he sent His Holy Spirit into the world to give you. Let’s receive power from on high by following the command of the Lord.
Acts8:14-17
Now when the apostles which were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent unto them Peter and John: 15 Who, when they were come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Ghost: 16 (For as yet he was fallen upon none of them: only they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.) 17 Then laid they their hands on them, and they received the Holy Ghost.
Having an accurate knowledge of faith, an being exercised thereby, we spring into action. Forward motion is our theme. Accomplishing that which seemed, improbable has become or scheme. Indelibly we leave our mark in life, in the creativity of the Spirit Of God, we attain the unattainable which brings God much glory much laud. A production center for life, for health, for birthing new babies into the kingdom, and bringing the young to maturity, by His wisdom. Faith springs forth into action through him who chose to identify, with the power delivered to men & women from God From on high.
John 15:8 King James Version Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciple
You can’t possess real joy without faith. It’s what you believe that carries the real joy. What you believe is the stabilizing force. So come what may, I believe something, and it’s what I believe that I shall receive.
John 16:24
Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full
His thoughts of you radiate with warmth from the Son, for He sees you through His glorious victory the resurrection. Through that tremendous victory that Christ won. He’s looking at you in a Triumphant Light. He sees you equip for victory through the power of His might. For He has deposited Himself inside of your heart. That’s the place where great strategies for victory springs forth. Reflect upon His living word, please consider the things that you’ve heard. This is the victory that over comes the world, even our faith. Become single minded, only procure His thoughts, and your influence will increase and the word of God will be released in strength.
1 John 5:4 King James Version (KJV)
4 For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.
The soul comprises the mind, the will, and the emotions, and has it’s connections with your body or “flesh.” Your heart, which is called “your spirit” is actually the real you. It’s the power house or production center of your life. The word of God is spirit, it’s designed to go past your soul and link up with your spirit, or as Was said, your heart. When the spirit of God’s word gets down into your spirit or heart, it will control your soul. Then your soul, won’t fight against what you know to be true.
How can I get the spirit of God’s word to get pass my mind, my will and my emotions and down into my spirit or my heart? Total immersion is the only way. This is how you renew your mind. That’s why it’s called a transformation. I wish I could say it was simpler than this, but it’s not. It takes everything that you are to become everything God designed you to be.
Romans 12:1-2 King James Version (KJV)
12 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
