When Praising GOD

"When Praising GOD"

    You might ask, do I love to hear praises from My people? Well, the answer is yes I do when the praise comes from a sincere and truthful heart, which sometimes it does not. There are many who tend to praise simply because they see others doing it, in which case, that type of praise does not mean very much at all. Some people just praise because that is what they need to do in order to move Me to do something for them, and no, that type of praise does not mean very much at all to Me. There are those who will praise just because they sound good when they do it, and yes, many there are who do just that, but there is nothing from their hearts involved. Some people will praise Me thinking that it will help to save them from something such as others have done throughout My Word, but again, it means nothing unless the heart is involved.

     Therefore children of Mine in CHRIST, if you plan on praising Me and/or The Lord JESUS CHRIST, do so because of your love for Us and what you feel in your heart first, and not for any other reasons. Do I love to hear people praising Us, yes I do if it is sincerely heartfelt. I do not want to hear from any copycatters, those who are insincere, or from those who are praising because they might be wanting something from Us. Any time people begin to praise just because they feel it in their hearts and for no other reason whatsoever, that is the type of praise that brings Us a great deal of joy. Now usually when a person begins to praise just for the joy of praising, good things will just naturally begin to happen in their lives. It is all because I enjoy a heartfelt praise so much, that bonds end up being broken in the lives of those who are doing the praising. Now may you be or become one who will sincerely praise Us from your heart, in JESUS' Most Precious and Holy Name.

What Do You Believe?

Thursday

"What Do You Believe?"

     It is sometimes so sad to think that there are still people of every race, creed, color, or religion who think that Heaven is as segregated as many of the places are on Earth. Such are the type of people who seem to be under the mistaken impression that somehow race, creed, color, and religion are important things here in Heaven, but they could not be more mistaken. As John 4:23-24 has tried to make clear, (23)a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in the Spirit and in truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks. (24) GOD is Spirit, and His worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in truth. The Lord JESUS tried to set an example by conversing with a woman who the Jews of His day would normally have just ignored if possible, but such is not the way of Heaven.

     So as you go about your days My children, try to remember that as a child of The Living GOD in CHRIST, there is no such separation as race, creed, color, or religion here in Heaven. Those who tend to get hung up on such things only prove that they are not yet prepared for what is in Heaven. To be a person who is determined to hold onto such prejudices and bigotries, is to have a very mistaken view of Heaven and how one is supposed to get along here. As I mentioned earlier, there is no separation by race, creed, color, and/or religion, or anything else for that matter, because the blood that The Lord JESUS shed, was shed on behalf of anyone who would dare to believe in Him. Nothing else really matters except for the fact that you believe in Him as My Only  Begotten Son, that He lived, was crucified, was buried, and was resurrected on the third day with all power in His hands. Now that is what is important, and blessed are you who believe, in His Holy and Most Precious Name.

AMEN

Learning to Be Truthful

 Wednesday

July 03, 2024

"Learning to Be Truthful"

     There are many who tend to tell lies to and for someone, all in an attempt to help them, not really understanding that a lie is still a lie no matter the reason for telling it. You will often see or hear a parent lie for their child who might find themselves in trouble, which is not right or good for them at all. There are times as well when one spouse might lie for the other spouse, and they will believe that they have good reasons for doing this as well. There are also times when friends will be heard doing the same thing also. One might ask the question then, is it ever okay to lie? Well, you could also ask the question is ever okay to steal, to commit murder, to commit adultery, to bear false witness, or to do any number of things such as these? The main reason why I ask these other questions is because I think of lying as being in the same category as them, even though people do not often see things the way that I do.

     From this day forth My children, learn to see the act of lying in the same light as I see it. In order to be holy and righteous, one has to begin to see things in the same light as JESUS CHRIST, The Holy Spirit, and I see them. I know it is not easy to do for most of you, but the more holiness and righteousness you allow into your life, the better at it you will surely become. You see, part of the problem with the world today is that very people tend to view telling the truth as being as serious as I do. Oh yes, most people can and will lie without even giving it a second thought, and they can always find a reason to justify why they had to tell a lie. It would really be nice if telling a lie was as difficult as telling the truth sometimes is for most people. Learn to be truthful individuals in every way possible, and blessed you will surely be for so doing, in JESUS' Most Precious and Holy Name.

AMEN

Knowing Who Is in Control

"Knowing Who Is in Control"

     Have you ever had times when you just have had to stop and think about what you have been through in your life, and just Who might have seen you through those times? I ask that question today simply because a lot of people tend to take everything in life for granted, or they act as if whatever they have achieved, they have achieved it on their own without any help from anyone. There are a few every now and then who do think about the fact that they would not have been able to achieve or do anything if not for JESUS CHRIST, The Holy Spirit, and Me. As many of you know, there are a lot of people who do not give Us or anyone else any credit for what they have achieved, not realizing that they could be taking their last breath anytime and anywhere if I would so choose. Only a foolish person would think that everything that they are is based solely upon who they are and what they have done for themselves, which is why I have My ways of reminding them every now and then.

     So listen to Me, My children, do not be so deaf, blind, and foolish as to believe that you are really like The Lone Ranger, so to speak. I see such people on a daily basis with their chests all puffed out as if they have no need for anyone to do anything for them, which is just ignorance magnified. Some people do tend to walk around as if nothing can touch them, not realizing that their every breath is dependent on Me. Those who do realize that everything that they are and/or can do is because of JESUS, The Holy Spirit, and I, will find themselves being blessed in ways they would never imagine. When you stop to give some thought to who you are as a child of The Living GOD in CHRIST, you will also be able to realize just how blessed you are to even be alive. All I really want is for people to wake up out of their stupors and realize just how blessed they have been, in JESUS' Most Precious and Holy Name.

AMEN

The Deception of Evil

 Monday

July 01, 2024

"The Deception of Evil"

     Almost any and/or everywhere you go in these present times, you can see evil at work all throughout. As shameful as it is, there are billions of people who are doing satan's will at any time of the day or night, and they will one day see what their service to and for him has gotten them. It will not be anything good of course, and it will be an awful thing to witness it. It is not something that many of them are forced to do at all, it is usually a choice made by them as far as walking in the path of evil is concerned. As MyWord says in Matthew 7:13-14, (13)“You can enter God’s Kingdom only through the narrow gate. The highway to hell is broad, and its gate is wide for the many who choose that way. (14)But the gateway to life is very narrow and the road is difficult, and only a few ever find it. Everyone therefore will be choosing a gate, and may wisdom lead you to choose the gate that leads to life.

     So as you take a good look around you today, do not be shocked or surprised to see the evil that is out there in this world. And little to anyone's surprise, evil is seen in places where there should be goodness and righteousness residing. Satan and his cohorts are cunning in many ways, and they often entice people to do things that they would not normally do. A lot of evil is hidden beneath what people might see as just being fun, all the while they are being pulled deeper and deeper into a world filled with darkness and sin. It is difficult for a lot of people to recognize evil, darkness, and sin because of how well everything is often camouflaged. Always be mindful of the fact that satan is indeed very cunning enough to deceive people into believing that nothing is really wrong with the choices they make, and he is really good at what he does. Now may you not be one to fall into his trap, as you stand strong, in JESUS' Most Precious and Holy Name.

Are You Speaking Life or Death?

 Sunday

June 30, 2024

"Are You Speaking Life or Death?"

     With so much negativity, doom, despair, and gloom speech in this world, it is simply wonderful when I am able to hear some positivity, hope, life, and love being spoken on occasion. Some people have just gotten in the habit of speaking negatively until it becomes absolutely normal to them. Almost every time you hear such people speak, they tend to talk about what they cannot do, who they cannot help, what is impossible, and/or what is killing them. Seldom if ever do you hear things like in Philippians 4:13, I can do all things through CHRIST Who strengthens me, or that they would like to speak life and truth over your life and your loved ones. Some people do of course awake every day just expecting bad things to occur in their lives without them ever having to get out of bed or take a step outside. Is it any wonder then that such people who tend to speak negatively about life, have trouble with anything good happening in their lives?

     Therefore My darling children, do not allow your speech to habitually speak such things as death instead of life, doom instead of hope, and gloom and despair instead of peace and joy. Be the type of person who can or will rise above the world of negativity and replace it with positivity. Many people tend to forget that there is power in the words that come from a person's mouth. Proverbs 18:21 makes it clear that the tongue holds the power of life or death, so then one has to choose which one they are going to bring forth. Have you ever known people who are always seemingly facing some trial or test in their lives, yet they seem to hold it together and pray their way through every situation and nothing seems to keep them down? You then have those who tend to fall apart at the smallest hiccup in their life, and then go ballistic as if their whole world is falling apart? Decide therefore for yourself as to on which side you are going to fall, in JESUS' Most Precious and Holy Name.

AMEN

Power Through The Spirit

 Saturday

"Power Through The Spirit"

     As many of you know and have often seen, as sad as it is to have to mention, there are many of the human race who tend to behave like those in the animal kingdom. Some people tend to behave so wickedly that they tend to take pleasure in inflicting pain upon others. Many of them even inflict this pain without any sense of remorse or regret. Many of the acts that I have seen people perpetrate upon one another, tend to sicken even Me sometimes, and that is a difficult thing to do. The awful things that people do to one another in fact, can indeed resemble animalistic behavior, and that is so sad to imagine happening. And oh, when it comes to certain behaviors involving sexual behavior, many people behave as if they have been created without any self-control, and that is definitely not how I have created anyone. What does happen is that they just allow their flesh to take over, and when the flesh is in control, all bets are off, so to speak. That is one of the reasons why fornication means nothing to some people and why it is so prevalent, with even some of the so-called good people failing to see anything wrong with it. It is true that I gave mankind sexual desires, but not so they could be like the animals who cannot restrain themselves. Lust of the flesh is a powerful thing indeed, but he or she who is led by The Spirit shall be able to overcome it.

     Now listen to Me, My children, there is absolutely no excuse for any of you to have to act or behave like you are some kind of animal. You will sometimes hear someone say that they cannot help the way they are, which actually translates into they do not want to relinquish themselves over to the control of The Lord JESUS CHRIST and The Holy Spirit. With JESUS CHRIST and The Holy Spirit in control, there is no room for the flesh and the lusts of the flesh at all. With Them in control, there is no room either for evil to rear its ugly head. Those who claim to have no self-control concerning what they do, are just lying to themselves because I created everyone to be able to have self-control, it is just up to the person whether or not to use it. Sure, it can be difficult at times as far as fighting the flesh is concerned, but Greater is He Who is in you than he who is in the world. As I have said on other occasions, I realize that none of you are perfect, but you also do not have to live in utter defeat to the flesh either. Do not allow yourselves to so easily succumb to the flesh and the lusts thereof, because you are not animals that are devoid of any self-control. Remember what Paul said in Galatians 5: 15-17, (15) But if you bite and devour one another, beware lest you be consumed by one another! (16) I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. (17) For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. Now may you be one who will learn to walk in The Spirit and be an overcomer, in JESUS' Most Precious and Holy Name.

AMEN

Allowing People to Be Themselves

 Friday

June 28, 2023

"Allowing People to Be Themselves"

     One of the most difficult things I have trouble getting people to realize is the fact that not everyone in this life has to be doing the same thing as far as Spiritual or any other pursuit is concerned. One person might be more adept at doing one certain thing than another, but it does not mean that that person is any better than the other. As many of you know, some people are just naturally more talented as far as certain things are concerned than are some others. Some people are blessed with the ability to do more than one thing while some others are somewhat limited in what they can do. Even so, what the other group is able to do, they are able to do it very well. Some people are able to sing, whereas some others cannot carry a note, so to speak, but that does not make the one who can sing is a better individual. Some people are able to run faster than others, but that does not mean that there is something wrong with those who cannot run as fast. Some people tend to have a higher-than-normal intelligence and in their ability to achieve more, but it does not take away from those whose intelligence is not quite as high. 

     Now listen My children, just learn to let people be good and do well in whatever it is that they tend to be best at being or doing. Whether it concerns something Spiritual or not, it can still be important to a certain person in whatever their endeavor might be. I am not very keen on trying to get everyone to do and be the same when it comes to living life, or else one person could never find out what they might do or be better at doing than someone else. One person might do well as far as Preaching is concerned, and another might be better at teaching. One person might be good as far as being able to hear Me, some might be able to prophesy, and then there are some who are very good at interpreting what The Holy Spirit is saying. There are even some people who have the talent to be Spiritually funny and who can make people laugh without using the profanity that some other people use. In other words, My beloved, everyone has their niche in life, and blessed are you if you have found yours and can allow others to find theirs, in JESUS' Most Precious and Holy Name.

AMEN

An Understanding and Loving GOD

 Thursday

June 27, 2024

"An Understanding and 

Loving GOD"

     I hear people daily becoming upset with Me any time things do not work out or go according to the way they have planned. Among the many things that cause people to become upset with Me is when a loved one becomes irreversible ill or even passes away. And because I  have said there is nothing impossible for or with Me, most people feel as if I should be able to stop or prevent anything bad from happening to them or to someone else. In such situations, of course, a person will tend to become deaf and/or blind when it comes to understanding and reasoning what has taken place, and what I could have prevented. Something that you will often hear in many instances is that a certain person left us too soon or before their time. Sometimes you might hear that a certain person has lived longer than they should have, or even longer than expected. Let Me ask all of you this question; just Who is it that determines how long anyone is going to live? Have not the number of a person's days been numbered by Me, whether they be long or short. One must remember that even when you do not like what has occurred, nothing comes as a surprise to Me.

     So go ahead My people and take your anger out on Me, because, unlike mankind, I am big enough to take whatever you can dish out. As a matter of fact, I knew in advance that you were going to be angry or upset with Me before you knew, so I have long been prepared to receive whatever it is you want to foist upon Me, just know that I will love you anyway once you finish. There are some among you who have grown to a point where you are able to understand how things work, and blessed are you who have. In such cases as in having to deal with losing someone early in their life, you are able to be thankful for the minutes, hours, days, months, or even years that you had with the person. Even though it makes it no easier to lose someone you love, at least you realize Who it is Who has the final word. As I mentioned a few days ago, the most important thing that anyone can do is to have and develop a relationship with and in The Lord JESUS CHRIST, because whosoever believes in Him will not perish, but will have eternal life. Now may you and your loved ones be in that number, in and through JESUS CHRIST your Lord and Savior.

AMEN

Being Ye Lovers of the Truth

Wednesday

June 26, 2024

"Being Ye Lovers of the Truth"

     If you care to take notes, My friend, you will find that the truth has often become offensive to many people these days. Now what I am speaking of, are the truths that are found in My Word. As a matter of fact, the truths tend to be offensive to those whose desire is to be friends with and of the world rather than being friends with The Lord JESUS CHRIST, Me, and The Kingdom of Heaven. If you want to choose between the truth of My Word and what the world wants to believe, you will surely find yourself being at odds with the world if you were to choose My Word. Those who are of the world have a desire to please the world, even though that which is presented to them is a lie. It is becoming more and more difficult to be a friend of the world when it is your desire to be a lover of the truth. Those who are in and of the world will often find the truths of My Word to be somewhat harsh and even hateful at times, all because My Word is truth and does not beat around the bush, so to speak.

     Therefore children of Mine in CHRIST, do not be surprised to find out that the world will indeed hate you because it hated The Lord JESUS CHRIST first. Remember that JESUS told His disciples that because He had chosen them out of the world, the world would hate them. He also said that the world would hate them because they hated Him first, and such as it is for those of you who love The Lord JESUS CHRIST as well as the truth. There are many who try to say these days that My Word is outdated and that It does not mean today what It meant in the past, and it is because they do not appreciate the truth of It at all. If you would care to notice one of the many things about The Lord JESUS, He always spoke the truth in every situation, and He did not care what others thought, who was offended, or what they thought about Him. JESUS CHRIST also knew there was power in the truth, and that the truth could and would make people free. So learn to be like The Lord JESUS and be lovers of the truth, and blessed you will be for so doing, in JESUS' Most Precious and Holy Name.

AMEN

No One Is Perfect

 Tuesday

June 25, 2024

"No One Is Perfect"

     As many of you should realize from reading My Word, I do not always choose the best of you through whom to do My bidding, because I look on the inside of a person and not on the outside of an individual as people tend to do. As most of you know from your personal experiences, mankind truly does love to judge one another based on such things as looks, how much money one has, what a person drives and/or wears, how strong does someone seem to be, or any other number of non-essential elements. The way I mainly choose people is primarily based on what I see on the inside of a person as far as their heart's desire. There are of course those few who I have chosen from birth to serve in the Kingdom, but these are the special circumstances of life. I have and will sometimes use liars, adulterers, murderers, and such to carry out My will and My purpose, and all because I knew what was in their hearts. There is nothing that says that I cannot use anyone I so desire except for perfect people to do My will, or else no one would be eligible to serve.

     From this day forth oh child of Mine, try to see other people the same way that I do by trying to judge them inwardly instead of outwardly. Most people are just imperfect human beings just like you, so do not try to judge others as if you are so much more than they are. While others are judging people by what is seen on the outside, I want you who are Mine to look deeper than the surface of an individual. Now granted, there are some people who are not worth their weight in salt, so to speak, so you need to be careful as to how you see others. Some people who see others as being useless or worthless, I am able to see them as being more than useful in every way that I need them to be. Now of course, those whom I do decide to use in My service will end up going through a change into becoming whatever I need them to be at the time. Blessed are all of you who will learn to see deeper than just the outside of an individual, for great things you will be able to see come from them, in and through JESUS CHRIST your Lord and Savior.

AMEN

Having Faith and Trust in GOD

 Monday

 June 24, 2024

"Having Faith and Trust in GOD"

     Sad to say My children, the almighty dollar tends to rule and/or ruin many lives along the way in this life. There are those who will lie, cheat, steal, and commit murder in order to get ahead in this world, and all so that they can make more money. There are even those who will work themselves half to death as well trying to attain as much as they can of those almighty dollars. I have often said that I will provide for and take care of My own, but alas, there are many who tend to be devoid of faith and trust in The Lord JESUS CHRIST and Me.  Many often say and make the claim that they love The Lord JESUS and Me, but they never tend to trust nor come to Us for anything, and that is usually because of their lack of trust and faith in Us. Some people would rather live day to day just scraping out a living instead of seeking help from Us when We are more than willing to help those who call on Us.

     Therefore My darling children, I know there are many of you who are doing well without coming to and seeking Us, but just think how much better things could be with Us in your corner? Even though I have said that  I would never leave nor forsake you who are Mine, I will also not force Myself on any of you who would rather just keep on ignoring JESUS CHRIST and Myself. The Lord JESUS and I would truly love to prove Ourselves to you who will place your faith and trust in Us. There are always the doubters around for sure, but some doubt because they do not feel that they deserve Our blessings, but no one really deserves it anyway. It is because of My grace and My mercy that I do what I do for My children, so just learn to relax and accept My free gifts. There is nothing within reason that I would not do for you who will trust and have faith in Us, and oh how blessed are you who do, in JESUS' Most Precious and Holy Name.

AMEN

No One Can Hide From GOD

 Sunday

June 23, 2024

"No One Can Hide From GOD"

     Sad to say and believe these days, there are many people in this world who have the mistaken idea that they can hide things or themselves from Me. A lot of people would be surprised to know what I have seen them doing and/or have tried to hide as if I am a GOD Who is limited in what I can hear, see, do, and/or be. Nothing, and I mean nothing, is ever or will ever be hidden from Me, and wise are you who realize and understand that fact. The problem oftentimes with mankind is due to the fact that they try to put Me in a box as if I was just another human being like them, being too foolish to realize that I am everywhere and can see everything all of the time. Still, because they have trouble conceiving that concept in their minds, they think that they can get away with things by trying to hide them or themselves from Me, and only a foolish person would believe that to be true.

     Blessed is everyone who does realize and understand the fact that I, Almighty Jehovah, am Omniscient, Omnipresent, and Omnipotent, no matter what anyone else thinks. Those who do realize and understand these attributes of Mine will also realize that it is futile to try and hide anything from Me, especially when it comes to trying to hide themselves. Adam tried to hide to no avail, and so did Jonah, but it did not do them any good at all. There is always some pitiful soul somewhere thinking that they are getting away with or hiding something from Me, but I am not deceived whatsoever. Those who realize that I am indeed all-seeing, all-knowing, present everywhere, and all-powerful, will be able to trust Me in ways that many others will not be able to do. There is very little in life as beautiful to Me as the person who has learned to place their trust in Me completely, and who does not need to try and hide anything from Me. Now may the best of the best be to you who have no need to try and hide yourself or anything else from Me, in JESUS' Most Precious and Holy Name.

AMEN
