STAY AT THE WELL
JOHN 4:28
THE WOMAN LEFT HER WATERPOT, AND WENT HER WAY INTO THE CITY, AND SAITH TO THE MEN, COME SEE A MAN WHICH TOLD ME ALL THINGS THAT I EVER DID: IS NOT THIS THE CHRIST? IN VERSE 15 THE WOMAN ASKED FOR THE LVING WATER…THEN SHE WAS SO EXCITED ABOUT HEARING ABOUT HER PAST AND ALL THAT SHE EVER DID THAT SHE LEFT HER WATERPOT AND SHE RAN TO TELL OTHERS.
YOU SHOULDN’T LEAVE YOUR WATERPOT NO MATTER THE EXCITEMENT! THERE WILL ALWAYS BE A TIME TO TESTIFY. THERE ARE MANY WHO ARE ABLE TO TELL YOU ABOUT ALL OF THE THINGS YOU DID IN THE PAST, BUT WHAT ABOUT THE PRESENT? WHAT ABOUT THE FUTURE? THE PAST WAS ALREADY LIVED. JESUS ADDRESSED HER PAST SIMPLY TO CLEANSE THE SIN SO THAT SHE COULD PUT AWAY THE OLD MAN AND GO INTO THE NEW. SO WHY RUN AND TELL ABOUT SINS THAT HAVE ALREADY BEEN CLEANSED? BE SURE YOU ARE NOT SO HASTY THAT YOU MISS THE WHOLE PURPOSE OF THE ENCOUNTER! THERE IS SO MUCH MORE TO RECEIVE IF YOU STAY AT THE WELL. YOU WILL LEARN TO GLORIFY THE LORD. YOU STAY AT HIS FEET AND HE WILL SHOW YOU HOW TO RECEIVE THAT WHICH HE DESIRES TO POUR UPON YOU. HE’LL SHOW YOU HOW TO BE COMPLETE. HE ADDRESSED THE SIN TO PRESENT YOU HOLY…THEN YOUR WORSHIP WOULD BE A SWEET SAVOUR. SO DON’T LET GO OF HIS HAND NO MATTER WHAT YOUR REPUTATION IS…YOU MUST STICK WITH JESUS WHO IS THE ONLY ONE TO CHANGE THINGS AND MAKE THEM FOR YOUR GOOD.

​If All I Had Was…
 Some people have much. Some people have little. The widow woman with the mite gave all she had. People who have been blessed with much to give more, but it doesn’t seem like much of a sacrifice. They don’t really seem to be affected by it either way but what about the others that don’t have much to give? What about those that deep down want to give, but can’t? Then we ought to give what we have to give. God gave all he had. He gave His love. He gave His son Jesus. He gave us His Spirit. So, we too, ought to give that which the Lord desires, our all. If all you had was love would you give it? If all you had was a testimony would you give it? If all you had was a praise would you do it? If all you had was a worship would you do it? If all you had was a prayer…and with the privilege of being at the feet of Jesus would you pour expensive oils upon Him? Would you wash His feet and dry them with your hair? What would you do at His feet? Would you surrender completely? Would you allow Him to glorify Himself completely in you? If all you had was Jesus would you tell someone….would you let His testimony reign in you?

​WHAT THEY WEREN’T WILLING TO DO!
Matthew 19:21-22
JESUS SAID UNTO HIM, IF THOU WILT BE PERFECT, GO AND SELL THAT THOU HAST, AND GIVE TO THE POOR, AND THOU SHALT HAVE TREASURE IN HEAVEN: AND COME AND FOLLOW ME.
BUT WHEN THE YOUNG MAN HEARD THAT SAYING, HE WENT AWAY SORROWFUL: FOR HE HAD GREAT POSSESSIONS.
SOME WEREN’T WILLING TO SELL ALL HE HAD
SOME WEREN’T WILLING TO GET DIRTY TO GET CLEAN
2 KINGS 5:10-11
AND ELISHA SENT A MESSENGER UNTO HIM, SAYING, GO WASH IN JORDAN SEVEN TIMES, AND THY FLESH SHALL COME AGAIN TO THEE, AND THOU SHALT BE CLEAN.
BUT NAAMAN WAS WROTH, AND WENT AWAY, AND SAID, BEHOLD, I THOUGHT, HE WILL SURELY COME OUT TO ME, AND STAND, AND CALL ON THE NAME OF THE LORD HIS GOD, AND STRIKE HIS HAND OVER THE PLACE, AND RECOVER THE LEPER.
ARE YOU WILLING TO LOSE YOURSELF TO GET FOUND?
ARE YOU WILLING TO DIE IN ORDER TO LIVE?
ARE YOU WILLING TO DO FOR CHRIST THE VERY THING THAT YOUR FLESH WASN’T WILLING TO DO?
THAT’S WHAT’S REQUIRED!
WERE YOU WILLING TO ASK?
WHY ARE WE SO FOCUSED ON THE ENDING? SOMETIMES THE END IS REVEALED….SO IT SEEMS BUT THE END COULD VERY WELL BE THE BEGINNING BECAUSE CHRIST AND THE I AM ARE ONE. HE IS THE PAST, PRESENT, AND FUTURE. HE IS THE FIRST, THE LAST, THE BEGINNING AND THE END.
LUKE 11:23
JESUS SAID UNTO HER, THY BROTHER SHALL RISE AGAIN.
MARTHA SAID UNTO HIM, I KNOW THAT HE SHALL RISE AGAIN IN THE RESURRECTION AT THE LAST DAY.
WERE YOU WILLING TO PUT YOUR CALM PRETTY ATTITUDE ASIDE IN DESPERATION FOR MORE OF CHRIST INSTEAD OF ANALYZING WHY HE WON’T DO IT? HE MOVED TIME FOR HEZEKIAH JUST BECAUSE HE ASKED INSTEAD OF ANALYZING ALL THE REASONS WHY IT COULDN’T BE.
ARE YOU WILLING TO THINK BEYOND WHAT YOU ALREADY KNOW FOR HIS GLORY?

​What Have You Learned?
An Apostle friend would often allow me to come to him and vent about things I experienced in the “wilderness”. I would get frustrated often and come to him with spiritual temper tantrums and after I was done with all the ranting, he’d sit in his chair and in a smooth, calm voice he’d ask, “Now, what have you learned?” I’ve learned so many things, but to sum it all up I’d say I’ve learned the Lord’s names… I’ve learned simply to be quiet sometimes and listen. I’ve learned to simply watch and pray. I’ve learned to praise my way through in times of hurt, in times of anger, in times of struggle, in times of misunderstandings, in times of disobedience, in times of silence, in times of perplexity. I’ve learned to descend to the lowly estate. I’ve learned how to be abased and how to abound…I’ve learned that Christ is the Almighty. He is the Alpha, the Omega….the God whom the Heaven’s cannot contain…He is the God who swears on Himself! I’ve learned, I’ve learned, I’ve learned the purified Love of Christ. He doesn’t stop pressing. He doesn’t stop fighting. He doesn’t stop praying. He doesn’t stop hoping. He doesn’t let go! It’s ever abounding from faith to faith, from glory to glory. He is truly the God of more than enough!!!

PHILLIPIANS 3:7-10

BUT WHAT THINGS WERE GAIN TO ME, THOSE I COUNTED LOSS FOR CHRIST.
YEA DOUBTLESS, AND I COUNT ALL THINGS BUT LOSS FOR THE EXCELLENCY OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF CHRIST JESUS MY LORD: FOR WHOM I HAVE SUFFERED THE LOSS OF ALL THINGS, AND DO COUNT THEM BUT DUNG, THAT I MAY WIN CHRIST,
AND BE FOUND IN HIM, NOT HAVING MINE OWN RIGHTEOUSNESS WHICH IS OF GOD BY FAITH:
THAT I MAY KNOW HIM, AND THE POWER OF HIS RESURRECTION, AND THE FELLOWSHIP OF HIS SUFFERINGS, AND BEING MADE CONFORMABLE UNTO HIS DEATH.

These are perilous times that we are living in. Paul began giving a testimony about the natural laws concerning promise and his place in genealogy within the Hebrew lineage, but he wanted to focus on the fact that he gave up the natural and carnal for the spiritual and things that were eternal.
When seeking the face of God you’re going to lose some things for the sake of righteousness especially in the end times. Some folks don’t want to let go of anything natural but Think they will still enter into a spiritual kingdom. To lose is to gain.

Acts 4:32

AND THE MULTITUDE OF THEM THAT BELIEVED WERE OF ONE HEART AND OF ONE SOUL: NEITHER SAID ANY OF THEM THAT AUGHT OF THE THINGS WHICH HE POSSESSED WAS HIS OWN; BUT THEY HAD ALL THINGS COMMON.
AND WITH GREAT POWER GAVE THE APOSTLES WITNESS OF THE RESSURECTION OF THE LORD JESUS: AND GREAT GRACE WAS UPON THEM ALL.
NEITH WAS THERE ANY AMONG THEM THAT LACKED; FOR AS MANY AS WERE POSSESSORS OF LANDS AND HOUSES SOLD THEM, AND BROUGHT THE PRICES OF THE THINGS THAT WERE SOLD.
AND LAID THEM DOWN AT THE APOSTLES’ FEET: AND DISTRIBUTION WAS MADE UNTO EVERY MAN ACCORDING AS HE HAD NEED.


We must be willing to suffer and lose things for Christ is the greater gain. Those who are not willing to leave mother, father, sister or brother and deny himself and take up his cross is not worthy of the Lord. Paul stated that the things which happened to him were for the furtherance of the gospel. What we lose...even the sufferings are to gain the kingdom. Our reasonable service is to partake in the sufferings and being made conformable to the death of the Lord Jesus Christ on the cross.
Oftentimes the flesh wants us to attempt to establish our own righteousness based on works of the law and of the flesh. However, the Lord says if we do according to the law then it is no more of the faith and without faith it is impossible to please the Lord. We must follow hard after the Lord that we may obtain and apprehend that which we have been believing for from the beginning. Let us therefore seek after His Spirit that we may do his will and be pleasing in his sight. #hiswill #hispurpose #hiswork #watchandpray

​Proverbs 10:21-22
The lips of the righteous feed many but fools die for want of wisdom.
The blessing of the Lord, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it.
Greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ from whom all blessings flow. Peace and truth be multiplied. These two scriptures are powerful with consideration that we live in the end times. The Lord is sharing that he has given gifts and talents to all men and he is using his righteous to dispense his gospel. Although the Lord uses his chosen to impart the word and his precepts, He mentions that there are those who lack wisdom from on high and the Lord calls them fools. It is foolish to have been privileged with the word, but not use the wisdom to properly apply it to our lives. We must not just be hearers of the word but doers also. The Lord has used his disciple James (see 1:5) to state that if any lack wisdom that they should ask of him and he will freely give it and he will not take it back. The Lord also states that when he blesses, he blesses in abundance. With such abundance and over flow of the gifts of God, they maketh rich; spiritually and naturally. The Lord wants his chosen to know that his promises are yea and amen, when he blesses, it is not a corrupt blessing.
John 14:1
Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
And if I go to prepare a place for you I will come again and receive you unto myself that where I am you may be also.
And wither I go ye know. And the way ye know.
The blessings of the Lord are first spiritual. The Lord said that through the Apostle Peter that our blessings are all things in Christ Jesus. He has given us all things that pertain to life and godliness. He has given us exceedingly great and precious promises. He has given us healing. He has given us deliverance from the care of the world and from the old life of sin. He has mended our brokenness and comforted us with his purified love. Therefore, if he has given us all things, let not your heart be troubled. His gifts are precious and have no sorrow with it. Therefore, we shouldn’t be sorrowful for wanting others to be healed. We shouldn’t be sorrowful for wanting people to be saved and filled with the Holy Ghost. I won’t be sorrowful for every time that I prayed that people understand who Jesus is…that he will have mercy and not sacrifice. He said I go to prepare a place for you. If he did the preparation he will receive you unto himself. He is stating he wants to be with you, so that where he is, you may be also. He is perfecting a body in holiness. His body is being cleansed by the word so that he presents a glorious church without spot and wrinkle (see Eph 5:27). #TRUTH #PRAISEHIM #HEARHISVOICE #SURRENDERANDREPENT #WATCHANDPRAY

​Luke 6:47-49
Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and doeth them, I will shew you to whom he is like:
He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock.
But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that without a foundation built an house upon the earth; against which the steam did beat vehemently, and immediately it fell; and the run of that house was great.
Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. He is the living God who sits on high, looks low, and swears on himself. He is the first and the last, the beginning and the end. He is the God who is, was, and is to come. Jesus is the written Word that is irrefutable, and He stated that whoever comes to him and does His will is like one who has built their house upon a rock and because they were established upon the rock when the storm arose it couldn’t be shaken.
            The Lord has asked what kind of house have we been built upon. Have we allowed Jesus Christ to be our foundation and chief cornerstone? Have you been established upon the rock, the lively stone? The storms of life come and go, and yet Jesus remains the same. Adversaries encompass like a flood, but Jesus has lifted the standard, and the true believers will have Jesus to be their rock and fortress, a very present help in the time of trouble. He stated prophetically that He’s shaking the foundations. When the shaking comes will your fruit remain? When the shaking comes will your works remain? Are you rooted and grounded in the love of Christ? Will your foundation withstand the test of time? When all hell breaks loose, will your faith stand?
Isaiah 66:1-2
Thus saith the Lord, The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool: where is the house that ye build unto me? and where is the place of my rest?
For all those things hath mine hand made, and all those things have been, saith the Lord: but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at my word.
The Lord says where His throne is is where His glory resides also. He is holy. He is to be feared and reverenced as King of Kings. He is patient. He is kind. He is gentle. He is humble. In His presence is the fullness of joy. His house is a house of prayer and a place of rest and peace. Everything that has been done is because of the wisdom and knowledge of God. He has created and appointed all things. Yet, He is with the poor in spirit, the meek, and them that have a reverent fear of His holy Word. #chasingafterJesus #HisSpirit #praise #believeonly

​1 Corinthians 13:1-5
Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
And though I have the gift of prophesy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.
And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.
Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the originator of all glory, honor, majesty, and power. Peace and truth be multiplied. It is needful to encourage you as we endure these last and evil days with a simple word and friendly reminder that we do a work of faith in the love of Christ. He created us in His likeness, meaning that He expects His chosen, who are joint-heirs of His spirit and heritage, to operate and do things after the holiness and pattern established. In the prophetic book of Revelation, the Lord Jesus addressed the church at Ephesus. This church was known as the “desirable” church. He addressed the love. Do not be weary in well doing. Do not faint. He commanded them to return to their first work where love did abide. Guard your heart, but don’t eliminate the love from my works, saith the Lord. I have loved you before foundations were established. We can speak in unknown tongues to edify our spiritual being and as a sign given to the unbeliever, but it means nothing if we are not dong it to win a soul or to edify in the purified love of Christ. In His presence is the fullness of joy and in His right hand pleasures for ever more. It is all talk and sounding brass, it is merely noise if they cannot see our Father through it. When we prophesy and speak of the unknown mysteries, and we do not do it to glorify God, the work is in vain if it is not performed in love. Sometimes, we as believers and chosen of the Most High can do some marvelous things out of obligation. We do things because we are under pressure. We do things because we are intimidated. We do things because we feel there will be consequences from God if we don’t. Yet the Lord says perfect love casts out all fear. If love isn’t present, then He is not present. His love cares, edifies, builds, and is not puffed up. His love is longsuffering and believes that all things are possible. We are living in the end times where men and women are looking for true saints of God, and the Lord has spoken through His Word that you shall know them by their fruits. We must reverence the mysteries of God as being good stewards5 that the Lord’s good is not evil spoken of through us. #SEEKHIM #PRAISE #BELIEVE

Romans 10:12-17
FOR WHOSOEVER SHALL CALL UPON THE NAME OF THE LORD SHALL BE SAVED.
HOW THEN SHALL THEY CALL ON HIM IN WHOM THEY HAVE NOT BELIEVED? AND HOW SHALL THEY BELIEVE IN HIM OF WHOM THEY HAVE NOT HEARD? AND HOW SHALL THEY HEAR WITHOUT A PREACHER? AND HOW SHALL THEY PREACH EXCEPT THEY BE SENT? AS IT IS WRITTEN, HOW BEAUTIFUL ARE THE FEET OF THEM THAT PREACH THE GOSPEL OF PEACE, AND BRING GLAD TIDINGS OF GOOD THINGS!
BUT THEY HAVE NOT ALL OBEYED THE GOSPEL. FOR ESAIAS SAITH, LORD, WHO HATH BELIEVED OUR REPORT? SO, THEN FAITH COMETH BY HEARING, AND HEARING BY THE WORD OF GOD.
It is needful to give a friendly reminder that we must consistently and effectively operate in our gifts and callings unto the Most High. How can they hear and bring forth fruits of righteousness if there is no knowledge of the living God. We must speak the word in season and out…even when it’s not popular and seems like no one is listening. In the last days there will be troublesome times. There will be rumors of wars and judgment with sword, pestilence, and with famine. However, those that call upon the Lord Jesus shall be saved. How can they call on a name that they don’t know? He must be introduced. He must be taught. Miracles, signs, and wonders will follow the believer. The chosen must not be intimidated. We mustn’t fear. We must speak the truth in the midst of a corrupt and perverted society. Tell them that the wages of sin is death and that the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ the son.
Ezekiel 3:17-20
SON OF MAN, I HAVE MADE THEE A WATCHMAN UNTO THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL: THEREFORE HEAR THE WORD AT MY MOUTH, AND GIVE THEM WARNING FROM ME.
WHEN I SAY UNTO THE WICKED , THOU SHALT SURELY DIE; AND THOU GIVEST HIM NOT WARNING, NOR SPEAKEST TO WARN THE WICKED FROM HIS WICKED WAY, TO SAVE HIS LIFE; THE SAME WICKED MAN SHALL DIE IN HIS INIQUITY; BUT HIS BLOOD WILL I REQUIRE AT THINE HAND.
YET IF THOU WARN THE WICKED AND HE TURN NOT FROM HIS WICKEDNESS, NOR FROM HIS WICKED WAY HE SHALL DIE IN HIS INIQUITY BUT THOU HAS DELIVERED THY SOUL.
The true saints of God must utilize the authority God has given to compel people to surrender while they yet have the chance. They are as a “brand plucked” out of the fire.
Jude 21-23
KEEP YOURSELVES IN THE LOVE OF GOD, LOOKING FOR THE MERCY OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST UNTO ETERNAL LIFE.

AND OTHERS SAVE WITH FEAR PULLING THEM OUT OF THE FIRE: HATING EVER THE GARMENT SPOTTED BY THE FLESH. #SEEK #WATCH #CONTENDFORTHEFAITH #TRUST #PRAY

​It is necessary that I write to you concerning two things; forgiveness and idolatry. First, it is needful to share the truth regarding forgiveness in the sense that forgiveness with the Lord is a requirement to enter his kingdom and his forgiveness has conditions.
Matthew 6:14-15
For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly father will also forgive you: But if ye forgive not men their trespasses neither will your father forgive your trespasses.
These passages of scripture include forgiving yourselves for coming short of expectations, the standards set by Jesus Christ, as well as coming short of standards we have set ourselves. When we hold unforgiveness towards ourselves, being a work of Christ, we put ourselves above the knowledge of Christ and with actions we are stating to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ that His death and resurrection is not enough and His grace is not sufficient. This ought not be done. We are not the creator, but it is the Lord who has created all things.
Col 1:16
For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers all things were created by him and for him.
Since He is shaping and making us, we cannot tell the potter what to make or ask, “What is it that thou makest?” Yet, we ourselves should decrease so that we yield to His Spirit and in unity with the father we trust that His work is a perfect work according to his will and purpose.
The Lord has pleaded with his children concerning idols. He said keep yourselves away from idols.
Eph. 5:5
For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.
So, we see that we operate in the sin of self-righteousness, covetousness, and idolatry when we hold ourselves to different standards than what Jesus has already established for us. Do not die a second death because you have made yourself to be an id theh peol. In that is unfruitful works of darkness. Now therefore we can repent, arise from the dead, and walk as children of the light holding dear the inheritance that has been established for us though Jesus Christ. Forgive yourself. Trust the Lord and submit to him completely as the bridegroom. And you being the weaker vessel knowing that in Him is your strength made perfect.
