What Has Love Got to Do with It?

Everything!!!

In thinking of the length, width, depth and height……where does that love begin?  Ephesians 3:14-21..............14 For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15 from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, 16 that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, 17 that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, 18 may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height-- 19 to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God. 20 Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, 21 to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.  NKJV

How much of His power really works in us, so we can ask Him for the impossible?

Was reminded today by the Lord, that I can pray about Him able to do exceedingly abundantly above all we can ask or think, but how much power flows through us, to receive it?  In thinking of how many are breaking laws today, their love must be almost extinct.  I can pray for those who are breaking those laws, but cannot pray for those who are working toward death of others! If we go to that new place is it about really making your life better or just to steal from another person, just like you!

A good thought  should be that God-minded for His love and peace. We will walk today toward this day in whom we have believed. He can do for the righteous what He has said He will do. No doubt here on that scripture, I have seen Him do the miraculous. Seriously speaking though, do we know how much, if any power is in us?  Is your switch on or just low in the words of truth God has spoken?

We should know the Holy Spirit resides in us when we have received Jesus as Lord. But do we pay Him any attention throughout our day?

That power to complete something is an exertion. That power is something that enables us to accomplish that which He desires us to do for Him and His kingdom. It takes a cooperation on our part. How does that work? It works when we continue to take on His likeness and continue to enter His kingdom. Our searching His word strengthens us, and fortifies us to be established before any world storms are driven in our direction. God wants to counsel us and lead us by His Holy Spirit.

Romans 8:26-27..................26 In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express. 27 And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints in accordance with God's will. NIV

Upon entering a dark room at night, the instinct is to go over and turn the power on, right? Finding the light switch, especially if there is a wall switch that will activate the power on, is paramount when one is stumbling in the dark. But when the power comes on, surges through that light bulb and light fills the room, one relaxes knowing they can truly see without stumbling through the room.

I heard this story once about this wealthy Scottish lady who had a nice home. She was widowed for many years, but had extreme wealth. She had wanted lights in her home. She had lived at the turn of twentieth century and had the gas put in, and after a month, the gas people returned to see why she was not using her gas for lighting her home. They wanted to know if she was dissatisfied with the gas installed into her home.  The gas that powered heat and light into her home was available, but she did not activate it. So the gentleman from the gas company showed her again where the "switch" was to turn or activate the gas in her home. She had continued to use candles to light her home and had never walked over to flip "the switch" on!

To me, that was like using the microwave oven or any new thing on the market back in the late 70's. I had one but rarely used it. Had a dishwasher too, but rarely had use of it as the work appeared doubled in loading and unloading it when having two people to wash and dry, the work is done and move on to something else. Of course, you may not have someone who is willing to help in the kitchen right now, but the day will come when each of us has kitchen duty. Ask anyone who has lost a loved one, and had to learn how to cook or even heat something on the stove after the loved one is gone.

Some of the best conversations my sister and I had when growing up, was those at the sink, washing up dishes after a great meal our mother had prepared for us to enjoy. There were times of soap suds floating in the air, but joy and laughter could be heard throughout the house and probably outside as well. It was a moment in time that we came together to do something, not only for our mother, but for ourselves as well. We enjoyed doing something together. Although it could sound like a "fight" who was going to wash and who was going to dry, still today it brings a smile to my face!

POWER!

Being daily rooted and grounded in love:1 John 3:21-24

21 Beloved, if our heart does not condemn us, we have confidence toward God. 22 And whatever we ask we receive from Him, because we keep His commandments and do those things that are pleasing in His sight. 23 And this is His commandment: that we should believe on the name of His Son Jesus Christ and love one another, as He gave us commandment. 24 Now he who keeps His commandments abides in Him, and He in him. And by this we know that He abides in us, by the Spirit whom He has given us. NKJV

Know that love of Christ which passes knowledge = fullness of God:Psalm 61:6-8

6 Increase the days of the king's life, his years for many generations. 

7 May he be enthroned in God's presence forever; appoint your love and faithfulness to protect him. 

8 Then will I ever sing praise to your name 

and fulfill my vows day after day.  NIV

Acts 2:28...28 You have made known to me the paths of life; 

you will fill me with joy in your presence.'  NIV

Knowing Christ in love, is dwelling in His holiness, His wisdom, knowledge as well.

We carry His presence wherever we go!

People are trying to plug into power, but they use some kind of wealth to propel them forward. And if they use it for an amount of time, they find they have bought too much, had way too many parties and never thought of what came next! They may intensify with an amount of wealth, they may use their status to push the envelope for power yet be terribly vulnerable when it comes to devil and his wiles.

For you and I, we must intensify in the presence and power of Jesus Christ. We are told that Paul prayed those believer’s would know

Christ living in them, that their hearts would be of faith in Him. That each would grasp God’s love at the spiritual level and beyond intellectual or theological knowledge and they would be filled with God’s fullness. Meaning this, that Holy Spirit would reveal the things of Christ (John 16) more fuller achieving God’s work in the earth. Each individual would and could be the un-hindered, the un-quenched and the un-grieved.

This will include your walk with others including spouse and children. (socially) It will include your finances. It will include the physical body and the spiritual life with God.  It is used mentally. We are to be God inside-minded!

Jesus  spoke we are to never to worry about what’s going to happen tomorrow, because He has not given us the grace to bear up under tomorrow’s concerns until we get there. You cannot be in two places at one time, but He can. So we will not borrow worries from the future. We Will not borrow trouble from anyone.  People borrow trouble from the news network daily and why?   We are to invest in faith. To choose to look for God’s hand working on our behalf today—and trust Him, in simple faith, for our tomorrow and future.  Without faith we cannot move through life in the spiritual. Spiritual eyes see and spiritual hearts will speak…that is by prayer in the kingdom of God.

Enduring Faith

Enduring by faith: Romans 1:17   NIV

17 For in the gospel a righteousness from God is revealed, a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: "The righteous will live by faith."   Speaking words of faith…

Diligently Seek Him: Hebrews 11:5-6    NIV…..5 By faith Enoch was taken from this life, so that he did not experience death; he could not be found, because God had taken him away. For before he was taken, he was commended as one who pleased God. 6 And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.

Enoch walked with God. He had relationship with Him. He did have to run to catch up to HIM!

 VERSE 6:  Without faith, it is impossible to please God.

Living by Faith, receiving His promises: Hebrews 10:36-39      NIV

36 You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised. 37 For in just a very little while,

"He who is coming will come and will not delay.

38 But my righteous one will live by faith. And if he shrinks back, I will not be pleased with him."   39 But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who believe and are saved.

Philippians 1:25-30   Amplified Bible……………25 Since I am convinced of this, I know that I shall remain and stay by you all, to promote your progress and joy in believing and glorying in Christ Jesus, through my coming to you again. 26 So that in me you may have abundant cause for exultation. 27 Only be sure as citizens so to conduct yourselves [that] your manner of life [will be] worthy of the good news (the Gospel) of Christ, so that whether I [do] come and see you or am absent, I may hear this of you that you are standing firm in united spirit and purpose, striving side by side and contending with a single mind for the faith of the glad tidings (the Gospel) 28 And do not [for a moment] be frightened or intimidated in anything by your opponents and adversaries, for such [constancy and fearlessness] will be a clear sign (proof and seal) to them of [their impending ] destruction, but [a sure token and evidence] of your deliverance and salvation, and that from God. 29 For you have been granted [the privilege] for Christ’s sake  not only to believe in (adhere to, rely on and trust in) Him, but also to suffer in His behalf. 30 So you are engaged in the same conflict which you saw me [wage] and which you now  hear to be mine [still].

From verse 27 are we those worthy of the good news the Gospel so that we stand firm in united spirit and purpose that God sent forth?

It is God’s grace which causes us to throw ourselves at the feet of the Lord Jesus. It should certainly look like praise and much rejoicing for His pleasure. For He granted us salvation through Jesus and by His grace to us,  we have a life abundantly forever which we have not earned nor have we merited. It is only through Jesus that we live, move and have our being.

Hebrews 10:22-25    NIV…………22 let us draw near to God with a sincere heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience and having our bodies washed with pure water. 23 Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful. 24 And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds. 25 Let us not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but let us encourage one another-and all the more as you see the Day approaching.

1 Corinthians 16:13-14    NIV

13 Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be men of courage; be strong. 14 Do everything in love.

May we on this journey with God always maintain what Paul had for all the churches. That whether there were false brethren, danger in the wilderness, sleeplessness with hunger or thirst….may our daily thinking keep watch over ourselves and all the flock of which the Holy Spirit has made us overseers. May we be those shepherds of the church of God, which he bought with his own blood.

 (circle of influence)   So be on your guard

The GUARANTEE of the Holy Spirit: Where Burden Turns to Wonder             

As a Christians have you ever had somebody tell you they're out to get you? They are going to level you? They're going to get you fired, plotting against you, or are out to take your children or spouse? Maybe you've had children or a spouse turn against you. But what God commands is what is to be seen spiritually in our lives.  Heard of this Christian missionary going from their church overseas to be held captive by those who have evil hearts. Steven Riddle and his wife, pastors of a church here in the U. S. but went overseas to help. But in that which hurt came against them. But God gave them His peace that whether shot or not, they would come home and unite with friends and family. And they did. Their peace was preaching to others all the way home and the many months of rehabilitation in another country.

Acts 20:22-31  NIV…………..22 "And now, compelled by the Spirit, I am going to Jerusalem, not knowing what will happen to me there. 23 I only know that in every city the Holy Spirit warns me that prison and hardships are facing me. 24 However, I consider my life worth nothing to me, if only I may finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me-the task of testifying to the gospel of God's grace. (he is speaking of the task, that set before him was to testify)

25 "Now I know that none of you among whom I have gone about preaching the kingdom will ever see me again. 26 Therefore, I declare to you today that I am innocent of the blood of all men.   27 For I have not hesitated to proclaim to you the whole will of God. (the will of God is His Word)

28 Keep watch over yourselves and all the flock of which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers. Be shepherds of the church of God, which he bought with his own blood.  ( circle of influence)

29 I know that after I leave, savage wolves will come in among you and will not spare the flock. 30 Even from your own number men will arise and distort the truth in order to draw away disciples after them. 31 So be on your guard! Remember that for three years I never stopped warning each of you night and day with tears.

Foundational Scripture: 2 Corinthians 1:6-24     NKJV……. 6 Now if we are afflicted, it is for your consolation and salvation, which is effective for enduring the same sufferings which we also suffer. Or if we are comforted, it is for your consolation and salvation. 7 And our hope for you is steadfast, because we know that as you are partakers of the sufferings, so also you will partake of the consolation.      Jesus Christ, the hope of glory in us…Paul was encouraging them in their faith walk…

8 For we do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, of our trouble which came to us in Asia: that we were burdened beyond measure, above strength, so that we despaired ( some doubt) even of life.

Paul is stating information on his trials. From Asia probably meant his trials in Ephesus or even Lystra. He was sharing his trials with them, and how his endurance caused them to reap the benefits. Of those places Paul experienced the miraculous of God in his life. He experienced it by the Holy Spirit. He could walk away from a situation no matter how severe it was at the time.

By these trials, his life had been endangered, perhaps, more than once, and he had been called to look death calmly in the face. Of  all these trials;  he would not have the Corinthians ignorant; but desired that they should be made aware of them, that they might sympathize with him, and that through their prayers they might be turned to his benefit. ….. Paul was speaking of that which he had to contend whether it was with wild beasts or destroyed by the people.

2 Corinthians 11:22-28      NKJV

22 Are they Hebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they the seed of Abraham? So am I. 23 Are they ministers of Christ?--I speak as a fool--I am more: in labors more abundant, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequently, in deaths often. 24 From the Jews five times I received forty stripes minus one. 25 Three times I was beaten with rods; once I was stoned; three times I was shipwrecked; a night and a day I have been in the deep; 26 in journeys often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in perils of my own countrymen, in perils of the Gentiles, in perils in the city, in perils in the wilderness, in perils in the sea, in perils among false brethren; 27 in weariness and toil, in sleeplessness often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness-- 28 besides the other things, what comes upon me daily: my deep concern for all the churches.

 2 Corinthians 4:8-12    NIV

 8 We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; 9 persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed. 10 We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body. 11 For we who are alive are always being given over to death for Jesus' sake, so that his life may be revealed in our mortal body. 12 So then, death is at work in us, but life is at work in you.

Perplexed  from verse 8…  is not having a way out…but not in despair that is…..at a loss…what is the situation and what do you do next…..???

 2 Corinthians 1:9

9 Yes, we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves but in God who raises the dead, 10 who delivered us from so great a death, and does deliver us; in whom we trust that He will still deliver us, 11 you also helping together in prayer for us, that thanks may be given by many persons on our behalf for the gift granted to us through many.

12 For our boasting is this: the testimony of our conscience that we conducted ourselves in the world in simplicity and godly sincerity, not with fleshly wisdom ( not of the old man) but by the grace of God, and more abundantly ( beyond measure the Word was preached)  toward you.       

Living as the new man, in that godly sincerity, it was not in or by any man-made ideas of worship. The grace of God had been displayed by their opportunities to minister there.

Their testimony was to glory in the presence of God.  For it is by our faith our worship  pleases God…..God’s holiness is the foundation of everything else God is  and is totally and completely set in Him.  Whatever Paul did, it was always about serving God as the New Man.  Their trust had to be in God Himself.

 Is our faith, that trust in God??? When we no longer see what was once our home, will we melt or will we stand for the Lord in this hour?

The Strong and the Unflinching


A Prophetic Word…The Lord gave me this word in February of 2017. I had given a teaching that week of the 22nd to give this very word! I send this out again, that we all might be battle ready with faith to see God feared and His plan in us finished as it was in Jesus!

Foundational Scripture:  Deuteronomy 31:6 in the Amplified Bible, “ be strong, courageous and firm; fear not nor be in terror before them, for it is the Lord your God Who goes with you; He will not fail you or forsake you.”  
The courageous do not have to pretend. They have this undaunted courage. These people are going into the Promised Land…there is the “new” before them. All they must do is walk in ………, right?
They ARE TO HAVE no fear, THEY ARE TO HAVE NO discouragement. They are armed with the Presence of God! 

Told our righteousness is revealed is seen  faith to faith….. Romans 1:16-17  NKJV…….For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek. 17 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith, as it is written, “The just shall live by faith.”

  It is active and readily seen in a true worshiper of God.
  It is from a willing heart


Living a Life that is Strong and Unflinching  ….in this Habakkuk speaks about this burden he sees and talks with the Lord. In Chapter 1….and verse 1-2 he sees and cries out at the violence in the streets. He sees justice as a joke….And Habakkuk asks God why He is silent right now at the moment this is all appearing.
Habakkuk 2:1-4   Amplified Bible….1 Oh, I know, I have been rash to talk out plainly this way to God! I will [in my thinking] stand upon my post of observation and station myself on the tower or ..fortress,( not in street traffic, but in a quiet place) and will watch to see what He will say within me and what answer I will make [as His mouthpiece] to the perplexities of my complaint against Him.
Habakkuk 2:2 And the Lord answered me and said,  Write the vision and engrave it so plainly upon tablets that everyone who passes may [be able to] read it easily and quickly as he hastens by. 3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time and it hastens to the end[ fulfillment]; it will not deceive or disappoint. Though it tarry, wait [earnestly] for it, because it will surely come; it will not be behindhand on its appointed day. 4 Look at the proud; his soul is not straight or right within him; but the [rigidly] just and the [uncompromisingly] righteous man shall live by his faith and in his faithfulness.

God has given us faith to live as Jesus did………and He has given us His Holy Spirit to not fear.  He has given us power, love, and a sound mind to prevail in all situations. (2 Timothy 1:7) Righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith…..


Deuteronomy 31:6-17    Amplified Bible    6"Be strong, courageous, and firm; fear not nor be in terror before them, for it is the Lord your God Who goes with you; He will not fail you or forsake you. 7) And Moses called to Joshua and said to him in the sight of all Israel, Be strong, courageous, and firm, for you shall go with this people into the land which the Lord has sworn to their fathers to give them, and you shall cause them to possess it. 8) It is the Lord Who goes before you; He will [march] with you; He will not fail you or let you go or forsake you; [let there be no cowardice or flinching, but] fear not, neither become broken [in spirit, depressed, dismayed, and unnerved with alarm]. Also read Joshua 1:6,7,9,18; 10:25.


Don’t be alarmed at what is being spoken in the streets! (we possess what we have in Jesus Christ)

Amplified Bible 1 And when Rehoboam came to Jerusalem; he assembled of the house of Judah and Benjamin 180.000 chosen warriors to fight against the [ten rebellious tribes of] Israel to bring the kingdom again to Rehoboam. 2 But the word of the Lord came to Shemaiah the man of God sayng, 3 Say to Rehoboam son of Solomon king of Judah, and to all Israel in Judah and Benjamin, 4 Thus says the Lord: You shall not go up or fight against your brethren. Return  every man to his house, for this thing is from Me. And they obeyed the Lord and returned from going against Jeroboam. 5 Jeroboam dwelt in Jerusalem and built cities for defense in Judah.

11 He fortified the strongholds and put captains in them, with stores of food, oil and vintage fruits. 12 And in each city he put shields and spears and made them very strong. So he held Judah and Benjamin 13 And the priests and the Levites who were in all Israel came over to Rehoboam from wherever they lived. 14 For the Levites left their suburbs and their possessions and came to Judah and Jerusalem, for Jeroboam and his sons had cast them out from executing the priest’s office to the Lord. 15 And he appointed his own priests for the high places and for the [idols, of demon] he-goats and calves he had made. (1 Kings 12:28)
16 And after them out of all the tribes of Israel there came to Jerusalem those who set their hearts to seek the Lord, the God of their fathers. 17 So they strengthened the kingdom of Judah and upheld Rehoboam son of Solomon for 3 years; for they walked in the ways of David & Solomon for three years.
Verse 17 says, "So they strengthened the kingdom of Judah and upheld Rehoboam for three years; for they walked in the ways of David and Solomon for three years." As long as they sought after the Lord and walked in His ways they were able to keep the city.


God spoke in this: for this is from Me. And they obeyed the Lord and returned from going against Jeroboam. Rehoboam fortified the cities, the people who obeyed they stored food, oil and vintage fruits, also they put in the strong shields and spears and made them very strong, having Judah and Benjamin on his side. The priests and the Levites who were in all Israel took their stand with him. They left their common lands and their possessions and came to Judah and Jerusalem, for Jeroboam and his sons had rejected those from serving as priests to the LORD.
Jeroboam  was appointing for himself priests for the high places for the demons, and the calf idols which he had made.
The church cannot sanctify something of the world and make it a part of that which is done in God! They tried that in the Catholic Church. That will not work. You cannot sanctify what God has not sanctified! The Catholic Church has Jesus as the son of Mary and states it as Mary the Mother of God! We know Him as in truth the SON of GOD!
We have come to our homes to hear Him and obey Him. We are strengthened in the secret place to obey His heart and not the many voices of men! When we go out of the secret place, we are to openly obey Him and not take to us things of the world to serve Him!
We prepare our homes with that which is needed and expect the Lord to direct our way through any "perfect storm" or circumstance. God is our sufficiency!


Psalm 71: 1-3 Amplified Bible  In You, O Lord, do I put my trust and confidently take refuge, let me never be put to shame or confusion! 2 Deliver me in Your righteousness and cause me to escape; bow down Your ear to me and save me! 3 Be to me a rock of refuge in which to dwell and a sheltering stronghold to which I may continually resort, which You have appointed to save me, for You are my Rock and my Fortress.

Luke 10:19-20   Amplified Bible     19"Behold, I have given you authority and power to trample upon serpents and scorpions, and [physical and mental strength and ability] over all the power that the enemy [possesses]; and nothing shall in any way harm you." 20 Nevertheless; do not rejoice at this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your names are enrolled in heaven.
It was about salvation……..and receiving that salvation by faith…..In that Jesus rules.
·         It is a spiritual walk of faith: that is to obey and hear God speak
·         Anything done in the flesh is taxing to our strength
·         Done in God, we are not exhausted………the Lord never leaves us without strength

Deuteronomy 31:6 in the Amplified Bible, “ be strong, courageous and firm; fear not nor be in terror before them, for it is the Lord your God Who goes with you; He will not fail you or forsake you.”  
·         Our sphere of authority comes out of the place we first seek God face to face….is  by prayer, by teachings…and is in worship…..Jesus was seen at age 12 and in Jerusalem….
Remember: Moses authority came at the place he was tending sheep in the wilderness and it grew from there..Exodus 3…. He met Jethro there and his wife…..Zipporah …Exodus 4
·         We are not just the “saved ones, but those who have the indwelling Holy spirit who empowers us to do exploits.
·         Come to a place that is with God and away from T.V. cell phones and other voices. Come, and notice God's presence and not a mere man!
Pray Our Father, who is Heaven hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, Your will be done on earth, in earth, in me in Jesus name.
Allow His peace to strengthen and allow His peace to help you root out that which must be removed. Remember anything that even represents a work of darkness is meant to keep God’s kingdom from advancing.
·         Wait on Him, receive instruction and move forward.

Wait in humbleness of heart………be not the proud…….but truly seek His face and His voice and write what He gives you.   
In closing: By faith in Him, we have our identification with His Son.
And to be with the Son is to be rejected by human nature. For you and I reside in a spiritual kingdom by faith. It is fasting and praying. It is reading God’s Word and casting out demons, not setting them up to reign!

Matthew 7:13-14         NKJV….(13) "Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. (14) Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it. NKJV
Matthew 7:13-14      Message Bible…..13 Don’t look for shortcuts to God. The market is flooded with surefire, easygoing formulas for a successful life that can be practiced in your spare time. Don’t fall for that stuff, even though crowds of people do. The way to life---to God----is vigorous and requires total attention.

Psalm 118:19-29    Amplified Bible….19 Open to me the [temple] gates of righteousness; I will enter through them, and I will confess and praise the Lord. 20 This is the gate of the Lord; the [uncompromisingly ] righteous shall enter through it. 21 I will confess, praise and give thanks to you, for You have heard and answered me; and You have become my Salvation and Deliverer. 22 The stone which the builders rejected has become the Chief Cornerstone. 23 This is from the Lord and is His doing; it is marvelous in our eyes. 24  This is the day which the Lord has brought about, we will rejoice and be glad in it.
25 Save now, we beseech You, O Lord; send now prosperity, O Lord, we beseech You, and give to us success! 26 blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord; we bless you from the house of the Lord[  you who come into His sanctuary under His guardianship .]   27 The Lord is God, Who has shown and given us light [He has illuminated us with grace, freedom and joy]. Decorate the festival with leafy boughs and bind the sacrifices to the be offered with thick cords [ all over the priest’s court, right up] to the horns of the altar. 28 You are my God and I will confess, praise and give thanks to you; You are my God. I will extol You. 29 O give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; for His mercy and loving-kindness endures forever.

Of this day and time in 2020 (May 3) the word I keep hearing and is mentioned daily is " being conditioned"...but, we are not to be conditioned to the things of this world, but conditioned in that which is Christ Jesus, where heaven is our home, we are but pilgrims passing through...to that which God intended....Hebrews 11:13-16 NKJV 13 these all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off were assured of them, embraced them and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.14 For those who say such things declare plainly that they seek a homeland.15 And truly if they had called to mind that country from which they had come out, they would have had opportunity to return. 16 But now they desire a better, that is, a heavenly country. Therefore God is not ashamed to be their God, for He has prepared a city for them.


Matthew 5:4 Amplified Bible 4 blessed and enviably happy [with a happiness produced by the experience of God's favor and especially conditioned by the revelation of His matchless grace] are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted. Matthew 5:8 Blessed ( happy, enviably fortunate, and spiritually prosperous---possessing the happiness produced by the experience of God's favor and especially conditioned by the revelation of His grace; regardless of their outward conditions) are the pure in heart, for they shall see God!


Meaning is: if you tell lies, you are not the pure in heart! Psalm 24 3-4 Who shall go up  into the mountain of the Lord? Or who shall stand in His Holy Place? 4 He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who has not lifted himself up to falsehood or to what is false, nor sworn deceitfully. You cannot be tuned into those who "give false news" and expect to walk in truth! You cannot expect to remain with those who give truth, if you yourself swear to truth but only speak and give false testimony!


If you require someone to rescue you today when you have Jesus, then you have totally missed Him! For life in Him is a trust. It is a place secure and not a place where the world hands you something and tell you to be secure in it. No, we are to be conditioned, that trained for war, battle ready, in that we pray and seek His plan above all else that what the world may speak or can promise. Are you battle ready? The temple gate is Jesus in us, so we are victors entering with praise, giving thanks for salvation through Jesus Christ.


 That which had been the rejected is being rejected today, but we knew this would happen. THIS  not happenstance. This is God’s Work and it is marvelous in our eyes. Oh God this is all for YOUR glory….. God has acted…and we pray for those in leadership all over this land and around the world will heed the counsel of God, not mourn over that which was only things of the world, but come out armed with God's word and prayer to see the the justice of God prevail.
We are thankful for Jesus, thankful for the life of God, thankful for the blessings of the Lord which makes rich and He adds no sorrow with it! We rejoice, we know God is good and is the One true God. O Lord YOU have bathed us in Your glorious Light. You have brought us onto freedom of that liberty in Jesus Christ. He has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, and has determined their pre-appointed times and the boundaries of their dwellings 27 so that they should seek the Lord, in the hope that they might grope for Him and find Him, though he is not far from each one of us; 28 for in Him we live and move and have our being, as also some of our own poets have said, ‘For we are also His offspring. 29 Therefore, since we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Divine Nature is gold or silver or stone, something shaped by art and man’s devising. 30 Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent. Salvation is a place : 1. The place we dwell is a place of life. It is the place of son-ship. It is not a place of fear but the place where God’s children reside. It is the place we share in Jesus Christ as co-heirs…..2. It is a place of citizenship with our names recorded in a book of Life…..3. It is a place where light dispels darkness; where fruit grows that is of righteousness and justice…..4. It is a place where there is only one true God, one doctrine, one Savior, one Helper, the Holy Spirit, ……5. It is a place that has the presence of God: His peace and His love…….6. It is the place Jesus told us about and that He went to prepare. Tonight we are not to allow our hearts to be troubled. For you and I, have followed the “…the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Jesus.
2 Corinthians 13:14 May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all. Amen!
