THE RIGHTEOUS PERISHETH, AND NO MAN LAYETH IT TO HEART: AND MERCIFUL MEN ARE TAKEN AWAY, NON CONSIDERING THAT THE RIGHTEOUS IS TAKEN AWAY FROM THE EVIL TO COME.
IN PLAIN SIGHT THEY DO WHAT THEY DO. THE ABOMINABLE THINGS THEY DO. WHY HIDE WHEN THE WORLD IS OF THE OTHER ONE? WITH THEIR ACTIONS THEY OPERATE IN HYPOSCRISY, LIES, AND DECEIT.
WHERE IS THE WISE? WHERE IS THE SCRIBE?

ISAIAH 33:14
THE SINNERS IN ZION ARE AFRAID; THE FEARFULNESS HATH SURPRISED THE HYPOCRITES. WHO AMONG US SHALL DWELL WITH THE DEVOURING FIRE? WHO AMONG US SHALL DWELL WITH EVERLSTING BURNINGS?
HE THAT WALKETH RIGHTEOUSLY AND SPEAKETH UPRIGHTLY; HE THAT DESPISETH GAIN OF OPPRESSIONS, THAT SHAKETH HIS HANDS FROM HOLDING BRIBES, THAT STOPPETH HIS EARS FROM HEARING OF BLOOD, AND SHITTETH HIS EYES FROM SEEING EVIL;
HE SHALL DWELL ON HIGH: HIS PLACE OF DEFENCE SHALL BE THE MUNITIONS OF ROCKS; HIS WATERS SHALL BE SURE.

IF WE DELIVER UP OUR RIGHTEOUS, WHO WILL BE THERE LEFT TO PRAY? THE LORD SAID THAT IF THERE BE SICK AMONG US THEN TO BRING THEM TO THE ELDERS THAT THEY MAY LAY HANDS UPON THEM TO PRAY.. HOW HAVE THEY SHUT THE MOUTHS OF THE HOLY ELDERS AND THE HOLY PROPHETS OF WHOM THE LORD WOULD BE WILLING TO HEAR IN THEIR TIME OF CALAMITY?

MATTHEW 23:37

O’ JERUSALEM, JERUSALEM, THOU THAT KILLEST THE PROPHETS,  AND STONEST THEM WHICH ARE SENT UNTO THEE, HOW OFTEN WOULD I HAVE GATHERED THY CHILDREN TOGETHER, EVEN AS A HENGATHERETH HER CHICKENS UNDER HER WINGS, AND YOU WOULD NOT!

O’ , IF YOU COULD ONLY SEE WHAT THE LORD JESUS CHRIST IS WILLING TO DO FOR THOSE WHO  WILL WALK ACCORDING TO HIS WILL AND UPRIGHTLY BEFORE HIM. HOW HE WOULD COVER YOU EVEN WITH THE SHADOW OF HIS WINGS. O’ HOW HE HAS LOVED US WITH A LOVE THAT PASSETH ALL UNDERSTANDING. THEREFORE HATH THE DAYS EVEN BEEN SHORTENED EVEN FOR THE SAKE OF THE ELECT.

​HASN’T THE LORD ALLOWED WHAT HE SAID HE WOULD ALLOW? DIDN’T HE DO JUST WHAT HE SAID HE WOULD DO? THE LORD IS NOT SLACK WITH HIS COMING, BUT IS EVER GRACIOUS AND MERCIFUL TO FULFIL THE WORD IN THOSE WHO ARE OBEDIENT TO DO HIS WILL AND HIS PURPOSE. THERE IS NO FAILURE IN JESUS CHRIST. THERE IS NO CONDEMNATION IN HIM. THE WORLD AS WE HAVE SEEN WILL CONTINUE TO CRUMBLE AND WILL NO LONGER BE. MANY OF THE CHOSEN HAVE BEEN SLAUGHTERED, A SPIRITUAL SLAUGHTER. THE WORDS OF WARNING HAVE BEEN SPOKEN, YET THEY HAVE CONTINUED TO GO THE WAY OF THE ADVERSARY. THEY GO THE WAY OF BAALAM. THE DAILY WALK THEY DO BUT NOT ACCORDIN GTO HOLINESS. A SPIRITUAL SLEEP HAVE THEM WALK IN THE WAY OF DECEPTION AND THEY LIKE IT SO. THE DECEPTION HAS CREPT IN AWARES MOSTLY IN THE CHURCHES, ENTICED WITH COVETOUS PRACTICES UNDER THE VEIL OF DECEIT. THEY HAVE ATTEMPTED TO ELIMINATE THE SPIRIT OF HOLINESS AND HAVE INSTEAD HEAPED UP THEIR OWN TEACHERS, REFORMERS, PROPHETS SAYING SPEAK TO US SMOOTH THINGS. THEY HAVE REFUSED SOUND COUNSEL. THEY RATIONALIZE AND REASON AMONG THEMSELVES WHY THEY MUST GO IN A WAY THAT SEEMETH RIGHT…A PATH THAT IS NOT STRAIGHT…A PATH THAT IS NOT NARROW BUT LEADETH TO DESTRUCTION. HOW HAVE THEY ALLOWED THE ADVARSARY TO STEAL THEIR HEART AWAY? HAVING HAD THEOR CONSCIENCES SEARED AS LIKE UNTO A HOT IRON, DENYING THE POWER OF GOD WITH THEIR ACTIONS OF UNBELIEF. HOW HAVE THEY SAID THE LORD HAS FAILED AT REDEEMING HIS SONS AND DAUGHTERS. JESUS CHRIST CAME AND LAID DOWN HIS LIFE AND PICKED IT UP AGAIN WHITH ALL POWER IN HIS HANDS WHILE THEN WAITIN GFOR HIS ENEMIES TO BE MADE HIS FOOTSTOOL. NOT ONE OUNCE, ONE JOT, ONE TITTLE OF THE WORD OF THE HOLY ONE OF ISRAEL SHALL FAIL. IT MUST GO FORTH AND ACCOMPLISH HIS WILL. THOSE WHO KNOW THE LORD JESUS CHRIST KNOW TO DO HIS WILL AND HIS PURPOSE. HE SAID HE WOULD HAVE MERCY AND NOT SACRIFICE. STAND IN THE GAP AND PRAY. SEEK AFTER HIS HOLY SPIRIT. KNOW THAT WE ARE IN THIS WORLD BUT NOT OF IT. THE WORLD CANNOT DICTATE THE STATUS OF YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS CHRIST UNLESS WE ALLOW IT TO. WHO’S REPORT WILL YOU BELIEVE? WILL YOU STILL STAND AND HOLD TO SOUND DOCTRINE WHEN A WITCH OR WARLOCK COME TO YOU SEEMINGLY IN SHEEP’S CLOTHING WANTING YOU TO STRAY WITH FALSE DOCTRINE AND SEDUCING SPIRITS? WILL YOU STAND AND BELIEVE THE REPORT OF THE LORD WHEN YOU’RE APPROACHED WITH TALL TALES ABOUT YOUR PAST THAT SEEM SO TRUE BUT WILL BE A LIE FROM THE PIT? DO NOT GET CARRIED AWAY WITH THE WHIRLWIND THAT COMES WITH GIVING IN TOTHE CARES OF THIS WORLD. JESUS IS REAL. AND HIS HOLY SPIRIT IS THERE WILLING TO LEAD AND GUIDE YOU IN THE PATHS OF ALL TRUTHS AND RIGHTEOUSNESS. YOU MUST BELIEVE IN THE MIDST OF ADVERSITY. TRUE FAITH HAS SIGNS FOLLOWING. JESUS IS THE SAME YESTERDAY, TODAY, AND EVERMORE. DO NOT BE WEARY. DO NOT BE FAINT. JESUS CHRIST HAS NOT LEFT HIS CHILDREN. UTILIZE YOUR GIFT AND TALENTS DO EFFECTIVELY TO HIS WILL WITHIN THE BODY OF CHRIST. PUT ON YOUR WHOLE ARMOR FOR THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH.

​The Lord Jesus Christ loves you. He died and rose for you. He desires for you to walk by faith in Him. You must allow His Holy Spirit to reign completely. Remember, we wrestle not against flesh and blood but against powers and rulers and spiritual wickedness in high places. The enemy desires to sift us like wheat. We must remain faithful. He commanded His children to not be weary and to not be faint. So not leave His hedge of protection. Obedience is better than sacrifice. He has plans to prosper you. His ways are higher than our ways and His thoughts are higher than our thoughts but we must decrease and He must increase. To live is Christ and to die is gain. You must deny YOURSELF and take up YOUR cross and follow Jesus Christ. There is always going to be warfare but how you process the spiritual warfare is what’s important. The point is not to draw away from the Lord Jesus but to draw closer. Praise Him “the more”. Worship Him “the more”. Seek Him “the more” and love on Him that much more because of who He is throughout all of your circumstances. The enemy’s ultimate goal is to destroy your faith and your relationship with the Savior. Don’t let him. The adversary cannot do anything besides what the Lord allows him to do. So trust in the Lord and do good. There is a reward for those who trouble us. #staythecourse #pickupyourweaponsandfight

​Jesus is very well alive and He is the same yesterday and forever more. I plead with the people called by the name of the Lord to arise and see things with a spiritual eye and not look with a natural eye. The work that the Lord has done has already been signed, sealed, and delivered in the heavenlies. However, who will surrender completely so that the Lord does the work. The church is troubled because they have allowed the enemy to creep in and convince them that they can do the work on their own. They do these things while still proclaiming that Jesus Christ is their Lord and Savior. They say He is their healer. They say that he is their deliverer. They say that He is their refuge, yet with their actions their heart is far from Him.  Who will look to the hills from which cometh their help? Who will give the Lord credit that is due to His name? Who will really allow the Lord Jesus Christ to reign as King in their life. If he was King, he wouldn’t have to push so hard for his people to turn over the plate and walk by His spirit. If He was really king, he wouldn’t have to allow certain situations to occur just so His people would read and supp with him more than a few minutes of the day. The people that Jesus Christ has chosen unto himself as his heritage seek after falsehood. They seek the world for answers. The go into darkness while seeking the rewards of the light. The have itching ears to hear a word from the Lord as if the word given by His true Holy prophets is not good enough. They have broken the Lord’s heart, the one they have called King. They continue to go the way of slaughter because of covetous practices, how the enemies have lured them to their demise. They have stretched him wide and hung him high on that cross. They put a crown of thorns on his head. They have pierced his side. All the while saying in their hearts that they have done a service to the Most High. Who will really surrender to his will? Who will dare to believe? Who will lift his name on high? Who will ask of His majesty what His will is? Who will receive and obey his voice? Who will prepare for the brightness of his coming? Who will speak the Word of truth without fear? Where are the true prayer warriors? Where are the lovers of God more than lovers of themselves? Where are the ones who have said that they would give their lives for the truth? Where are the children who really care about the heart of God and the things concerning his chosen? Where are those who will eat the whole loaf? Those will sit and dine with the King of Glory and not just sit and NOT eat? Will the alarm sound for the army of the Lord to stand and fight for the righteousness of Christ?

Isaiah 29:13-16

Wherefore the Lord said, forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honour me, but have removed their heart far from me, and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men:
Therfore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvelous work among this people, even a marvelous work and a wonder: for the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid.
Woe unto them that seek deep to hide their counsel from the Lord, and their works are in the dark, and they say, Who seeth us? And who knoweth us?
Surely your turning of things upside down shall be esteemed as the potter’s clay: for shall the work say of him that made it , He made me not? Or shall the thing framed say of him that framed it, He had no understanding?

​WORSHIP IS…

IN SPITE OF WHAT MY SITUATIONS AND CIRCUMSTANCES SHOW ME, JESUS CHRIST STATED THAT HE WOULD ALWAYS BE THERE. HE WILL NEVER LEAVE US NOR FORSAKE US THAT WE CAN BOLD SAY THAT HE IS OUR HELPER AND OUR KEEPER. WORSHIP IS WAITING ON THE LORD BY FAITH AND TRUSTING THAT HE WILL ANSWER AND MOVER ON YOUR BEHALF EVEN WHEN YOU MAKE NOT LIKE HOW HE ANSWERS. WORSHIP IS PRAISING EVEN WHEN YOUR CIRCUMSTANCES PUT YOU IN POSITION TO CRY INSTEAD OF LIFTING UP THE NAME OF JESUS. PRAISE THE LORD JESUS SIMPLY BECAUSE HE IS WORTHY. WORSHIP IS PRAYING IN THE MIDST OF FRUSTRATION AND AGGITATION. PRAY WHEN IT SEEMS LIKE JESUS IS NOT LISTENING. WORSHIP IS DOING RIGHTEOUSNESS AND NOT COMPROMISING YORU FAITH WHEN IT SEEMS LIKE THE WORKERS OF INIQUITY PROSPER IN THEIR WAY. WORSHIP IS STANDING IN THE GAP TO STRENGTHEN THE FOUNDATION OF SOMEONE WHO IS HAVING TROUBLE STANDING ON THEIR OWN. WORSHIP IS SINGING A SONG OR HYMN AND REJOICING IN THE MIDST OF CIRCUMSTANCES WHEN YOUR HEART WOULD RATHER SCREAM AND THROW A SPIRITUAL TEMPER TANTRUM. WORSHIP IS SOWING SEEDS OF LOVE IN A PLACE THAT SEEMS BARREN AND DESOLATE WITH THE NATURAL EYE. WORSHIP IS SPEAKING THE WORD OF LIFE TO A SITUATION THAT SEEMS TO BE ON THE BRINK OF DEATH. SPEAKING THOSE THINGS THAT BE NOT AS THOUGH THEY WERE. WORSHIP IS EATING THE WHOLE LOAF AND RECEIVING IT ALL WHEN SOME PORTIONS ARE LES TASTEFUL THAN OTHERS. WORSHIP IS EVERLASTING. IT IS NOT DEPENDENT UPON CIRCUMSTANCE. WORSHIP IS A VOW AND A COMMITMENT TO THE TRUTH. WORSHIP IS REAL AND IT’S A LIFESTYLE. WORSHIP IS SURRENDER AS THE WEAKER VESSEL TO ALLOW FOR THE GLORY OF GOD TO MAKE HIS PRESENCE KNOWN. WORSHIP IS THE ACKNOWLEDGMENT THAT FHE IS ALL THINGS TO ALL MEN THAT BY ALL MEANS HE MAY SAVE SOME. WORSHIP IS LOVING ANYWAY, EVEN WHEN YOU DON’T KNOW THE NEXT STEP. BY FAITH YOU HOLD THE LORD’S HAND AND SAY, “I’LL GO WHEREVER YOU TAKE ME. JUST TAKE ME WITH YOU!” TRUE WORSHIPPERS IS WHAT HE IS SEEKING.

JOHN 4:22-24
YE WORSHIP YE KNOW NOT WHAT: WE KNOW WHAT WE WORSHIP: FOR SALVATION IS OF THE JEWS.
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 IN TRUTH. 

​God is love. The purified love of God is eternal and everlasting. There is no way to contain contain Him into one small segment. However, it is essential to mention the love of Jesus Christ and the power therein is the basis of our spiritual warfare and battles we are fighting.
What most people tend to do sometimes without necessarily realizing it; they attempt to label or categorize the love of Jesus Christ. The purified love if Christ exists in three persons: The Father, The Son, and The Holy Ghost. He is. It’s that simple. God is! It’s not a religious thing. He’s the truth. He is. Love stands on His own as the originator of all things. There is none greater, therefore, He swears on Himself. He is the ancient of days. He is the all-seeing, all-knowing, God who is everywhere.
When you’re in the midst of warfare, love is there. No matter the circumstance, no matter the situation. He is there. Love cannot be personified. Though He exists in most people, love is a spirit. It is necessary to understand because we cannot put our confidence in man. Man has shortcomings. The purified love of Christ is coupled within the Holy Spirit. The expectations of such a gift cannot be compounded to the standards of man’s wisdom. When you need love to present himself in your life, there is rarely any confusion of who He is when you really want him. Love recognizes himself in others, especially when He’s pure and true.

A TESTIMONY OF LOVE

As a young teenager, the Lord Jesus Christ placed in me a heart of worship. I would attend worship services, and though I was a shy personality, I wanted to worship the Lord with the confidence that the others had around me. My passion for His presence was personal. I longed for Him to manifest His presence upon me. I hungered and thirst for His righteousness. However, the worship I kept secret. I was heavy laden in sin and I didn’t want anyone to see my wretchedness. So, when I prayed I found a secret place where I could pray to the Lord. Most of what I did was done in secret. It wasn’t just because I wanted to hide my faults and shortcomings, but I also walked with the perspective that no one loved me or cared about me one way or the other.
On the outside things seemed to be alright. However, on the inside was bottled up hurt, pain, lonliness, frustrations, and misunderstandings. I misunderstood my purpose in Christ. I misunderstood the role that Jesus Christ was intending to have in my life as King, Father, and Savior.
To experience the overcoming power of God and achieve the victory in battle, you must believe only and surrender completely to the Lord’s will and purpose. Oftentimes, troubles come simply because we love. There is absolutely nothing that can separate of from the love of Jesus Christ other than sin. If we love the Lord, then we wil obey His commands.
All of this love that the Lord Jesus Christ has poured upon our lives and the children of God is to lead and guide us to our expected end. The reward and the victory is in the finish. We must endure to the end.
The more that you seek the face of God and all of His righteousness, the more the enemy will attempt to bring warfare into your life. However, God is the author and the finisher of our faith. He is in control. He will not allow more than we can bear. The more we draw closer and know the Lord Jesus, the more the enemy will attempt to make us think we don’t know the Lord at all. That’s why we walk by faith and not by sight knowing that we are in the Lord’s hands. With the revelation of Jesus Christ there is much resistance from the adversary. However, we must love the Lord Jesus more than we love our own life.
Rev 12:11
And they overcame him by the blood of the lamb, and by the word of the testimony, and they loved not their lives unto the death.
Through Jesus Christ we have overcome the world. The victory in battle is given through the blood of the lamb and the word of their testimony, even unto death. We know these things because we are believers. Therein is the purified love of Christ and the power of God unveiled. That kind of love…that kind of victory is worth fighting for. So, PICK UP YOUR WEAPONS AND FIGHT!

YOU'RE LOST ALREADY (A COMMON FORM OF DECEPTION)

​There was an appointed time when I had been doing a great bit of work in the ministry, more actively than usual. I had consented to some speaking engagements and because of that I had more contact with demonic forces. There were some ministries I ministered within and yet when I refused to come in league with them and become a minister under them, all hell broke loose on my life. I subjected myself to a major spiritual attack which originated from a simple yes to a speaking engagement. As much as we love the Lord Jesus, we must be certain that our ministering no matter the form, is according to his will and not our own. You can say no. Don’t be afraid to say no. While I was under siege by those demonic forces, they were so strong and powerful. It was terrible. Those demonic forces that I encountered knew my strengths and my weaknesses. They brought up nearly all of the wrongs of my past, my short comings. They told me my works of righteousness had been done in vain. My husband didn’t really love me or understand me. They told me I ministered to people too harshly the times I told them to repent. I abused my authority. Jesus didn’t want me anymore. His Spirit had left because I should have had a covering.
 Nearly within the same time frame my biological father had become ill and passed away. There was a play on my emotions and the love that I had for my dad. “If you loved him, you would have prayed more. You prayed, the Lord didn’t answer. You didn’t have the power like you used to. Since your natural father is gone, your spiritual father left also. You’re a vagabond. You’re a heathen. You’re a bastard.”
Those fiery darts kept coming back-to-back with guilt and all sorts of falsehood. When I was in the midst of this battle it was a struggle to overcome the strongholds. I had to fight. I had to praise. I had to overcome. I was fighting for my own life while responsible for being the gatekeeper for the souls of others. I was almost convinced that Jesus had forsaken me and that I was lost and destined for the pit of Hell. Someone on the outside looking in would wonder how one could think such things. The spiritual warfare is real. The devastation is real. The battle for redemptions and salvation is real. This is not for entertainment. Jesus Christ is not a myth. His Holy Spirit is real. The enemy used the tactic of deception so that I wouldn’t put on my whole armor.
Some days I was convinced after not hearing the voice of God for some time, that he really did leave. There were days I didn’t praise, I said, “What’s the point, he’s not listening?” All this happened because of me. It’s my fault”, I said to myself. However, thank God for his grace and his mercy as well as his longsuffering and compassion. The more I allowed the adversary to keep shooting those fiery darts and hesitating to speak the Word of God into the atmosphere, the longer it took me to overcome and get back on the battlefield for Christ. The prayers of the righteous surely availeth much. I am a living testimony of that fact. Jesus Christ gives us choices. We must let him reign completely. I must admit that there have been several times I put some of my armor down and it caused injury and could have possibly caused casualties. I’m also grateful that the Lord gives angels charge over us to handle those battles in the spiritual realm that we don’t have strength to fight. Jesus will never leave you. He will never forsake you. Hold onto his hand and if you don’t have strength to do anything else, open your mouth and call on the name of Jesus.
II Tim 1:7-8
For God hath not given us the spirit of fear, but of power, and of love, and a sound mind. Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but thou partaker of the afflictions of the Gospel, according to the power of God.
Clearly, the Lord does not want us to be fearful. The Word states that with fear is torment. He doesn’t want us tormented. He has given us the power that comes with love and a sound mind. All three are in a package. Though, we maintain reverent fear of the Lord Jesus Christ, he doesn’t want us to be afraid or intimidated.
There is power that comes with faith in the Most High. The more faith you have, the more power you have to move in that faith. Therefore, be not ashamed of the testimony that the Lord Jesus is establishing in you. There will be many afflictions because of the Gospel wherein we are partakers. However, we walk in the power of God with the purified love of Christ. The Lord stated that he gave the Spirit of Power, Love, and a Sound Mind. The adversary will attempt to affect those three with the Spirit of Fear.
Fear can affect your soundness of mind. If you allow it. Remember, we must kill on contact those things which affect our mind of Christ. Fear, when entertained can make a person act crazy and irrational. Without the soundness of mind, you can react to situations with poor judgement which could potentially have your good evil spoken of. Let the spirit of a sound mind and purified love of Christ cast out all fear. With those three you can do all things through Christ that strengthens you and overcome. No matter what type of fear and intimidation the adversary shoots toward you, stand in the truth. In the moment of truth, you must ask yourself, “Will you remain faithful to the Most High?’ He is the author and the finisher of your faith. Don’t take down because of doubt, fear, deception, or intimidation. The overcomers shall see God. Stayed armed and dangerous! Pick up your weapons and contend for the faith.
#PICKUPYOURWEAPONS #VICTORYINBATTLE #OVERCOMERS

You’re Not Ready/Qualified (a common deceptive tactic)
We all have tests and trials for the increasing of our faith. Some trials seem greater than others, sometimes seeming like our breakthrough is farther than we can fathom. Yet, we grow leaps and bounds and overcome.
One appointed time in my life when I was weaker in the faith, I was a pastor in my youth, and I started waling in my calling, and praying for the sick, and teaching the Gospel. I had no clue of the opposition I would face simply because of my obedience to do the will and purpose of Christ. I just went forth and did what the Spirit of God led me to do. People were healed, delivered, and set free. Lives were changed for the good. While these works of faith continued to manifest, the adversary used people who were of the Christian sector to intimidate us into quitting.
 When I received an unction from the Lord Jesus to go forth and do a work, I didn’t come out of a church organization. I hadn’t been a deaconess for ten years or an assistant pastor who served up the ranking for some big bishop. There wasn’t this great ordination service. I simply answered the Voice of God. So, the form of intimidation that other pastors, apostles, and many people used was to say that I was out of order. They said God does things in decency and in order and I needed an apostle and I needed a church building. They even went so far to say that women weren’t pastors and that I was outside the will of God. Meanwhile, I just knew that I loved the Lord and I wanted to please him. I didn’t often guard my heart in those situations and because of it I often cried to the Lord. I couldn’t grasp the concept of how many people could say that they loved the Lord God and those same people could put so many restrictions on that love and the power of God that accompanied such a love during those times the Lord would minister to my Spirit and let me know that he was with me no matter the circumstance and no matter the situation. I didn’t have very many opportunities to fellowship, but the signs, miracles, and wonders that he used me to do were beyond the walls of the church, just as the days of old. Nonetheless, the work and His will was still accomplished. There were often times of discouragement and even moments of full-blown anger, but I didn’t give up, we kept trusting, seeking, and persevered through it.

I JOHN 2:24-29

LET THAT THEREFORE ABIDE IN YOU, WHICH YE HAVE HEARD FROM THE BEGINNING. IF THAT WHICH YE HAVE HEARD FROM THE BEGINNING SHALL REMAIN IN YOU, YE ALSO SHALL CONTINUE IN THE SON, AND IN THE FATHER.
AND THIS IS THE PROMISE THAT HE HATH PROMISED US, EVEN ETERNAL LIFE.
THESE THINGS HAVE I WRITTEN UNTO YOU CONCERNING THEM THAT SEDUCE YOU.
BUT THE ANOINTING WHICH YOU HAVE RECEIVED OF HIM THAT ABIDETH IN YOU, AND YE NEED NOT THAT ANY MAN TEACH YOU: BUT AS THE SAME ANOINTING TEACHETH YOU ALL THINGS, AND IS TRUTH, AND IS NO LIE, AND EVEN AS IT HATH TAUGHT YOU, YE SHALL ABIDE IN HIM.
AND NOW LITTLE CHILDREN, ABIDE IN HIM; THAT, WHEN HE SHALL APPEAR, WE MAY HAVE CONFIDENCE, AND NOT BE ASHAMED BEFORE HIM AT HIS COMING.
IF YE KNOW THAT HE IS RIGHTEOUS, YE KNOW THAT EVERY ONE THAT DOETH RIGHTEOUSNESS IS BORN OF HIM.

FRIENDLY REMINDER TO KEEP THOSE THINGS NEAR AND DEAR TO YOU WHICH THE LORD JESUS CHRIST HAS ESTABLISHED IN YOU FROM THE BEGINNING. HE IS THE TRUTH. HE IS THE LIGHT AND IN HIM IS NO DARKNESS AT ALL. BE NOT DECEIVED. THERE ARE FALSE BRETHREN WHO HAVE ATTEMPTED TO CREEP IN AWARES. TRY THE SPIRITS TO KNOW WHETHER THEY ARE OF GOD. WHEN THE HOLY SPIRIT IS IN OPERATION, HE IS PURE AND HOLY. IN THE PRESENCE OF THE LORD GOD IS THE FULLNESS OF JOY. THERE IS NO “ALMOST THERE” OR “MAYBE” WHEN IT COMES TO THE MOVE OF HIS HOLY SPIRIT AND THE OPERATIONS OF HIS SPIRITUAL GIFTS. THAT’S WHAT MAKES THEM GIFTS BECAUSE OF HIS COMPLETENESS. THERE ISN’T PARTIAL HEALING OR DELIVERANCE. HE MENDED MY HEART A “LITTLE BIT”.  HE IS! HE IS COMPLETE. THERE IS NO HALF-WAY. HE IS THE AUTHOR AND THE FINISHER OF OUR FAITH. HE DOESN’T POUR HIS SPIRIT AND LEAVE CONFUSION. YOU SHALL KNOW THEM BY THEIR FRUITS. THEREFORE, BE WATCHFUL AND PRAYERFUL. SEEK HIS FACE. WALK IN TRUTH AND LOVE AND HIS SPIRIT WILL TEACH YOU WHAT THE WILL OF THE SPIRIT IS.  #PRAISEHIM #SEEKHISSPIRIT
