​As we approach another year in our Lord Jesus Christ, it is needful to consider our short term and long term goals. We do this every year. However, we must keep in mind that Jesus is the ultimate planner and guide and things must line up according to His will and purpose. Those goals that we establish should be both spiritual and natural. While we do recognize that all things are spiritual we refer to those things that are natural as necessities to live such as going back to school or purchasing a new home. The more spiritual aspects include more effective communication, pray more often, read the Word more frequently and the like so that your Spirit man and grow and abound that much more in the love of Christ. How can we have an expectation of spiritual fruits and we are not often doing things of the spirit? Let us seek after the things which are above (Col 3:1-2) so that we may be able to walk in His manifest presence this year. I ask again to some, Do you have the Holy Spirit? If not, why don’t you? If so, How do you know? Do your fruits show? Do you have your prayer language? Seek the face of God with us so that we can continue to build each other in the faith and that we may also can be that much more effective on the battlefield for Jesus Christ. Remember where there is unity there is strength. Two is better than one. Have a clean, safe, and prosperous start to your New Year!  #staythecourse #writethevision #makeitplain

WE HAVE AN UNDERSTANDING OF THE FACTS THAT JESUS CHRIST IS THE REASON FOR THE SEASON. HE LOVED US SO MUCH THAT THE LORD COMMANDED “PREPARE ME A BODY” AND A BODY WAS PREPARED THAT HE COULD COME AND DIE THAT WE COULD BE RECONCILED UNTO GOD. O’ WHAT A LOVE THAT IS! HE IS THE SAME. WE CANNOT FATHOM THE DEPTHS OF THE LOVE HE HAS FOR US. HE SAYS EYES HAVE NOT SEEN , NOR EARS HEARD, NOR ENTERED THE HEART OF MAN THE THINGS THAT ARE PREPARED FOR THOSE WHO LOVE. HE HAS PREPARED A PLACE FOR US IN HIM, YET THERE ARE PREREQUISITES. THE PROMISES IN HIM ARE YE AND AMEN. HOWEVER, IT REQUIRES HIS LOVE. HE HAS RESERVED A PEOPLE UNTO HIMSELF, A HERITAGE OF BELIEVERS THAT LOVE HIM. TO LOVE HIM IS TO BE OBEDIENT TO THE LORD’S WORD AND COMMANDS. HE WANTS A RELATIONSHIP THAT STRETCHES BEYOND MERE KNOWLEDGE OF HIM AND THEOLOGY, BUT TRUE SURRENDER. PAUL STATED THAT HE LEARNED BOTH HOW TO BE CONTENT NO MATTER THE SITUATION OR CIRCUMSTANCE. HE KNEW BOTH HOW TO BE ABASED AND HOW TO ABOUND. IN ORDER THE OVERCOME AND RECEIVE WHAT HAS BEEN PREPARED FOR US WE MUST  LET JESUS CHRIST REIGN AS KING IN OUR LIVES. WE CANNOT GO ON OUR OWN IDEAS AND OUR OWN PLAN AND THINK THAT IT WILL BE PLEASING UNTO GOD. YOU MUST NOT LEAVE THE HEDGE OF PROTECTION. DO NOT BE DECEIVED. THE ENEMY IS CRAFTY AND IF YOU ARE NOT ACTIVELY SEEKING THE FACE OF GOD IT IS EASY TO BE LED ASTRAY AND GO THE WAY THAT SEEMS RIGHT TO A MAN, YET THAT END RESULT IS DESTRUCTION. YOU MUST KNOW HIM FOR YOURSELF. YOU CANNOT LIVE IN THE VISION AND FOUNDATION OF SOMEONE ELSE. JESUS CHRIST GIVES INSTRUCTION AND IS A GOOD SHEPPARD KNOWN BY HIS SHEEP. HE LEADS IN TRUTH. HE IS THE LIGHT AND THERE IS NO DARKNESS IN HIM, NONE. THERE ARE SEDUCING SPIRITS THAT ARE USED TO BLIND THE SAINTS OF GOD. THEY ARE USED TO WEARY THE SAINTS   AND WITHIN THEM THERE IS ALSO DECEPTION. THEY WANT TO MAKE YOU “FEEL” LIKE EVERYTHING IS FINE. THEY WANT YOU TO “FEEL” COMFORTABLE IN YOUR SIN AGAINST THE MOST HIGH. HOWEVER, THE LORD STATED THAT FOR  THE ELECT SAKE HE HAS SHORTENED TIME LEST IF IT WERE POSSIBLE THE VERY ELECT WOULD BE DECEIVED. SO WATCH A ND PRAY THAT YOU WILL ENDURE AND OVERCOME TEMPTATION AND YOU MAY BE FOUND WORTHY UNTO GOD.
PS 106:39-40
THUS WERE THEY DEFILED WITH THEIR OWN WORKS, AND WENT AWHORING WITH THEIR OWN INVENTIONS.
THEREFORE WAS THE WRATH OF THE LORD KINDLED AGAINST HIS PEOPLE, INSO MUCH THAT HE ABHORRED HIS OWN INHERITANCE AND HE GAVE THEM INTO THE HAND OF THE HEATHEN; AND THEY THAT HATED THEM RULED OVER THEM.

​CAN YOU DRINK FROM THIS CUP?

JOHN18:8-11


As the Lord went away into a private place to pray He called on the Father and asked if He would take away the cup from Him. Jesus had already humbled himself to travel through forty two generations to teach the Word and to show forth His miracles, signs, and wonders. He even gave a time for the gentiles to receive Him just as well. Most often people desire the comfort that’s within the cup and all of the goodly rewards that’s within the cup. However, its often hard to swallow and partake of the pain and the suffering for righteousness sake. Even Jesus asked if it could pass. The purified love of Christ is required to drink of the cup of the Lord…to be self-less…to be after God’s own heart is what keeps you drinking of the Lord’s cup. In the cup is righteous judgment and justice. In the cup is persecution. In the cup is discipline and death of the flesh. Jesus was wounded for our transgressions and bruised for our iniquities. By His stripes we were healed. Jesus paid the price that we couldn’t pay. In that same cup comes the communion with Jesus and the other saints who were persecuted for righteousness. There is the fellowship; denying of self and taking up your cross and following after him.
The officers searched for Jesus and once they’d found him the disciples were released to go forth to fulfill the Word that He whom the Lord had been given by the Father, He had lost none.
No one pluckest out of the Lord’s hand. There is no power greater than the power of the true and living God. Attempting to fight on behalf of God, Peter drew a weapon. However, the Lord reminds us that our weapons of warfare are not carnal but powerful and mighty to the pulling down of strongholds. He said His Father had given Him the cup and ought He not drink of it? The Lord’s will and purpose must be done. We must let Him reign as the King of Glory in our lives. Each day has been pre-destined even before the foundations of this world. We must eat of the whole loaf of bread which is the Word of God and the whole cup which is the blood of the lamb which was shed to partake we must walk in the Word where the Lord commanded us to present ourselves a living sacrifice holy and acceptable unto God which is our reasonable service (Rom 12). Some people say that they can drink from the cup when things seem to be going well, yet when the fiery dart starts to pierce the flesh and the trials and tests come to purify us, then it seems like many who said they were all in and sold out for Jesus decided to walk away because He wasn’t worth the death of the flesh. He wasn’t worth suffering for. They say these things with their actions. He said that no one could come to the Father except they be drawn and after making that statement many went away and asked will you do away too? This commitment is not temporary. This is not a consecration that is for a form or fashion. This is not entertainment or propaganda. He really did die and pay the price with His blood to partake with you for eternity. This a commitment to a marriage. This is a lifetime of living sanctified unto the Lord Jesus Christ. The good, the bad, the ugly. Being all things to all men that by all means we may save some. Can you drink of this cup? #allofit  #trust

​JESUS REMAINS THE SAME


HEBREWS 1:8-14

WHILE THE SPIRITUAL WARFARE CONTINUES, IT IS NEEDFUL TO ENCOURAGE YOU IN THE FAITH AND TO ADVISE YOU TO CONTINUE TO PUT ON YOUR WHOLE ARMOR THA TYOU MAY BE ABLE TO WITHSTAND THE FIREY DARTS OF THE ENEMY. MEANING CONTINUE TO PRAISE THE LORD. BE WATCHFUL AND PRAY WITHOUT CEASING. DO NOT TAKE DOWN THE STANDARDS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS THAT HAS BEEN ESTABLISHED IN YOU THROUGH CHRIST JESUS. THE THINGS THAT WE SEE ARE TEMPORARY. THE LOSSES WE COUNT GAIN FOR JESUS CHRIST. THE TRIALS AND TESTS THEY COME AND THEY GO THAT WE MAY ABOUND IN THE FAITH AND LOVE OF GOD FOR HIS GLORY. THE SPIRIT OF GOD REMINDS THAT JESUS IS ON THE THRONE AND HIS IS RGHTEOUS AND IS EVERLASTING. THERE IS NO FOUNDATION LAID BESIDES THAT OF JESUS CHRIST. THOUGH THE HEAVENS AND THE EARTH MAY PERISH, JESUS CHRIST REMAINS THE SAME. HE IS THE SAME TODAY, YESTERDAY, AND EVER MORE. HIS WORD, NO MATTER WHAT YEAR IT IS, REMAINS THE SAME. NO MATTER WHAT LAWS ARE CREATED IN THIS EARTH, THE PROMISES OF JESUS CHRIST REMAINS THE SAME. THERE IS NO DECREE OR PROCLAIMATION THAT IS FORMED WITHOUT THE LORD ALLOWING IT. THERE IS NOTHING HID THAT SHALL NOT BE REVEALED. NO MATTER THE CIRCUMSTANCE OR SITUATION JESUS IS STILL A REFUGE. HE IS STILL A HEALER. HE IS STILL A DELIVERER. HE IS STILL A MENDER OF BROKEN HEARTS. THOUGH YOUR SITUATION MAY CHANGE, JESUS CHRIST REMAINS THE SAME. CAREERS MAY CHANGE, BUT JESUS CHRIST REMAINS THE SAME. YOUR ADDRESS MAY CHANGE, YET HE REMAINS THE SAME. FINANCES MAY BE QUESTIONABLE, YET JESUS REMAINS THE SAME. SO, TRUST IN THE LORD WITH YOUR WHOLE HEART AND STAND ON YOUR MOST HOLY FAITH. HE IS AN ALL CONSUMING FIRE. ALLOW HIM TO GUIDE YOU AND REFINE YOU INTO THE FAITHFUL BEING HE HAS CALLED YOU TO BE. YOU DECREASE AND ALLOW THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD TO INCREASE. DO NOT ALLOW THE ENEMY TO SEDUCE YOU INTO CHANGING YOUR PERSPECTIVE ABOUT WHO JESUS CHRIST IS AND HAS BEEN IN YOUR LIFE. JESUS IS A GENTLEMAN AND IS THE GOOD SHEPPARD. HE WILL LEAD YOU IN THE PATH OF ALL TRUTHS AND RIGHTEOUSNESS. HOLD ON TO THE MOST PRECIOUS THINGS CONCERNING YOUR FAITHAND DON’T LET GO.

​IT IS NEEDFUL TO DISCUSS BETRAYAL IT HAS BEEN PREACHED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS IN CHURCHES IN DIVERSE PLACES. MOST OFTEN WHEN BETRAYAL IS MENTIONED THE DISCIPLE JUDAS IS ALSO MENTIONED. HE WAS A DISCIPLE WHO WALKED WITH JESUS IN HIS INNER CIRCLE FOR THE WRONG REASONS. THOUGH HE KNEW JESUS PERSONALLY TO BE THE SON OF GOD, HIS HEART WAS CONTENT WITH OPERATING IN COVETOUS PRACTICES, LYING, AND DECEIT. MOST OFTEN IT SEEMS WE HEAR OF TROUBLES AND AFFLICTIONS THAT HAVE TAKEN PLACE BECAUSE OF OUR VERY OWN TRUSTED FRIENDS AND RELATIVES WHO CLAIM TO BE SONS AND DAUGHTERS OF THE MOST HIGH. THERE ARE SO MANY “CHURCH HURTS” AS SOME CALL IT. MOST FREQUENTLY THE OFFENSE HAS ORIGINATED FROM WITHIN THE CHRISTIAN SECTOR AND NOT FROM THOSE WHO ARE “OF THE WORLD”.
MATTHEW 11:6
AND BLESSED IS HE, WHOSOEVER SHALL NOT BE OFFENDED IN ME.
DO NOT BE OFFENDED BY THE THINGS THAT TAKE PLACE KNOWING THAT THE LORD HAS ALLOWED ALL THINGS FOR HIS PURPOSE AND REASON.
DO A SELF-EXAMINATION FOR A MOMENT WITHOUT LOOKING AT WHAT OTHERS HAVE DONE TO YOU, BUT LOOK AT WHAT YOU HAVE DONE TO JESUS HAVING NEGLECTED THE THINGS CONCERNING HIS SPIRIT. HE HAS FORGIVEN THEE SEVENTY-TIMES-SEVEN AND MORE. HE HAS LONG SUFFERED AND HAS SHOWN EXCEEDING GRACE AND MERCY TOWARD US. MANY OF US ARE THE WORST OFFENDERS AND THE BIGGEST HYPOCRITES CONCERNINGG FORGIVENESS AND MERCY. MEANWHILE, WE ARE THE ONES WHO NEED IT THE MOST. LOVE COVERS A MULTITUDE OF SINS. LET US ACKNOWLEDGE THE CUSHION OF GRACE TO ABOUND IN THE LOVE OF JESUS CHRIST WITHOUT DISSIMULATION (ROM 12:9). HOLD FAST TO THE TESTIMONY OF OUR SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST THAT HAS BEEN ESTABLISHED WITHIN US.  

Praise the Lord! Let us magnify His name together! O' taste and see that the Lord is good and His mercies endure forever. I thank God for life, health, and strength, victory over my enemies and victory over sin. Thank God that though things in this world continue to change Jesus remains the same! He is the same today, yesterday, and ever more. Where would I be if it hadn't been for the Lord Jesus who had chosen to favor me and look past my faults to meet my needs for righteousness, even when I didn;t think to seek Him or desire to seek for Him. O how wonderous are your works of love toward the children of men! Lift up and praise the Most High, all ye lands. What a might y God we serve.
There are so many things that I do not understand or comprehend regarding the lengths, breadths, and heights of His love toward me. The heavens cannot contain Him! Yet I say thank God. He is. He is He is. Through the struggles, through the tests, through the trials, and even all of my shortcomings, He has favored me with life to bless Him and seek Him one more day. There are time when I cannot grasp Him. I crave Him. I hunger for His touch. I desire for His righteousness and Holiness. There's brokenness, yet by faith I believe for the mending. The passionate pursuit continues minute by minute, desperate wanting to be apprehended by HIM! Surrounded by adversaries, yet I know that it is for His glory. What can they do to me that hasn't already been done to my savior on the cross? What do I have that hasn't been given unto me? O' if I could impart such a thing to you...such a thing as surrender, I would.If I could persuade one to receive the love of Jesus Christ, what a glorious day it would be! I'm just cazy enough to believe that Jesus Christ is still on the throne and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek after Him. Let Him take the throne in your life completely. He is not a man that He should lie or the son of man that He should repent. His ways are higher than our ways and His thoughts are higher than our thoughts! Thank Jesus that He is the first, the last, the beginning and the end. He is all to all me that He may by all means save some. Thank God for the numerous testimonies that have been used to save me out of the miry pit. There is no love like the love of Jesus Christ.   Strengthen me to endure. Make me to be an overcomer in Jesus' name! #praiseHim #Pickupyourweaponsandfight

HOWEVER, WE MUST CONTINUE TO WALK BY THE SPIRIT AND NOT TAKE DOWN OUR STANDARDS OF WHAT THE LORD HAS TAUGHT US TO BE RIGHTEOUSNESS. REMAIN WISE AS SERPENTS AND YET GENTLE AS A DOVE.

SHOW HIM HE CAN TRUST YOU WITH HIS WORD AND USE IT TO SPEW THE ADVERSARIES IN THE TIME OF TRIAL.PUT ON YOUR WHOLE ARMOR AND AGAIN I SAY, STAND. BELIEVE ONLY.
2 THESS 1:4-7
SO THAT WE OURSELVES GLORY IN YOU IN THE CHURCHES OF GOD FOR YOUR PATIENCE AND FAITH IN ALL YOUR PERSECUTIONS AND TRIBULATIONS THAT YE ENDURE:
WHICH IS A MANIFEST TOKEN OF THE RIGHTEOUS JUDGMENT OF GOD, THAT YE MAY BE COUNTED WORTHY OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD, FOR WHICH YE ALSO SUFFER:
SEEING IT IS A RIGHTEOUS THING WITH GOD TO RECOMPENCE TRIBULATION TO THEM THAT TROUBLE YOU;
AND TO YOUWHO ARE TROUBLED REST WITH US, WHEN THE LORD JESUS SHALL BE REVEALED FROM HEAVEN WITH HIS MIGHTY ANGELS,
