Conversation with God

Lord in my weakness throughout my trials, tribulations and temptations, hear my humble cry. I know you’re always with me, please hear and answers my prayer Lord. I am angry, I don’t feel I can keep up with being good all the time, with my human default within, struggling with sin. Whiles I am trying to be faithful and true, I can feel the contamination, contagious work of sin creeping in, I so am angry at the world. Scripture declare, “be angry, and do not sin.” Ephesians 4:26-27 I am trying so hard because people are being possessed unknowingly by Satan, as I watch them taking evil for good. They are adamant that right is wrong, truth is lie and evil is good. I claim it to be possession because they are blinded, can’t recognize truth even if it’s right in front of them, like Judas was against Jesus. Something is terribly wrong and we need you Lord. There’s a continue vision flashing in my mind, a scene of humanity finally realizing the truth and like Judas who betrayed Christ, it’s just too late and we all perish.

Hears my grievances directly at them as I vent out of the depths of my soul. “For all you judgemental Christians I was once like you when the zeal of God had first captivated me, and had consumed my soul, mind and was born again. I had so forgotten, what a wretched sinner I myself was. But because of the convictions of the Holy Spirit within me, I cannot tell a lie. The truth, I can’t hold it down within me, it finds a way to manifest somehow, and I spew it up. I have to be careful not to be judgemental myself, but rather to see through the lenses of the Holy Spirit that is working through and within me. But I am angry, and bitterly so, especially over the blatant hypocrisy of humanity who believe themselves to be Christians( to be Christlike) speaking up on behalf of Christ like the Pharisees try to do,where God was concerned, who didn’t even recognize His son in their presence.

Sometimes we must remember what being Christlike means: resembling or showing the spirit of Christ. Christian: following the teachings or manifesting the qualities or spirit of Jesus Christ. Instead we focus and concentrate on our own selfish desires giving into our emotions giving way to the devil to overcome us, having his way with our mind, soul, and body.

“It’s not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick.” Jesus said, on hearing the Pharisees asking his disciples, why does their teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners. Just remember sinners are the ones Jesus died for, “so stop persecuting them.” Jesus should have said, “if you believe you’re healthy you don’t need a doctor!” The Pharisees like some Christians today, truly believe themselves to be the doctor the people needed and not Jesus. We’re all sinners and have fallen short, but God so LOVE the WORLD, He gave his only begotten son, John 3:16 We must stop persecuting sinners, and leave it God. We are God’s vessels, His instruments, not His replacement.

On abortion! “I just don’t get it.” The sixth commandment, “thou shalt not kill” Think for a moment where in the Bible (word of God), is there any exceptions for killing? Here’s what Jesus says, Matthew 5:21-21 “You have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘you shall not murder; and whoever murders will be liable to judgment.’ But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother will be liable to judgement; whoever insults his brother will be liable to the council; and whoever says, ‘You fool!’ Will be liable to the hell fire. I am trying to comprehend their ideology on what “thou shall not kill means” to me it’s very straight forward a commandment. When we speak of abortion as killing (murder) babies, what about the children and babies in Ukraine, Gaza, Lebanon and all war torn countries, you hypocrites, where are your Godliness to help and prevent what’s going on in our world. Why would you think war is acceptable or having any form of weapons that kills, especially a guns for people to own.

Judge me all you want, hypocrites, abortion like any medical procedures man can do is given by God, whether it’s cosmetic, surgical intervention, operation, medical procedure…I do disagree with anyone who would use abortion as a form of contraception. When Jesus was working all kinds of miracle, like making the blind see, the lame walk, dead come back to life…he told the disciples John 14:12 Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. This is letting us know that every, creative mind, scholar, genius…all comes from God, after all we were created in our Father’s image. If only some of us can realize and understand that. It like saying we shouldn’t use the advance abilities we now have medical to improve our health mentally or physically. What about our advancement with technology I guess it’s a sin to be use also. How quickly we forget that we have a God that’s not a bully or dictator, we can choose and we’re the only ones when making our decisions have to live with the consequences.

When it comes to abortion or any sin we’ve committed, just remember it’s not even our parents who give live to us can speak up on our behalf or anyone for that matter. It is we ourselves, who will be the ones standing before God on judgment day. When we die, just like when we are born it’s always one at a time coming into the world, even if you’re a twin, one comes out first. We can’t take anyone with us and even twins don’t die at the same time or day. You’re on your own with death and judgment before the Lord, “for all you self righteous, religious, judgmental so called Christians.” How do I know? I practice what I preach and I’ve experienced what I preach. We have to stop speaking things we don’t know or understand and stop assuming it’s fact because we’re just guessing or read someone else experience not our own. “We don’t have a heavenly or hell that is of our own, to put anyone in, so spot the judgment.

Jesus didn’t come to judge or condemn the world, John 3:17 For God did not send his son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. I came boldly to the throne of God and confess I am a sinner and found out, sin is sin, no exceptions as a less or greater and all have sinned and fallen short. The worst thing is to come before God not recognizing or accepting like Cain with his brother Abel, that you have sinned Genesis 4:1-16. But we have a merciful, compassionate, understanding, and forgiving God when we do sin, forgives us and says, “go and sin no more.” In other words look at the consequences of sin in your life. Stop sinning and learn from it, don’t be a presumptuous sinner, that you don’t keep repeating it. If you’re liar stop lying, if you’re adulterous stop, you’ve lost your entire family, if you’re murder, stop killings….

All us wicked, cantankerous humans (sinners) are so lucky Jesus never went back to heaven and summoned a last call for our lives as we do towards one another. We must understand according to Romans 7:14-19 The law and sin: We know that the law is spiritual; but I am in spiritual, sold as a slave to sin. I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do. And if I do what I do not want to do, I agree that the law is good. As it is, it is no longer I myself who do it, but it is sin living in meFor I do not do the good I want to do, but the evil I do not want to do-this I keep on doing. Oh, the conflict of sin within us, and it’s a struggle. Matthew 26:41 “The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.”

Lord my anger is sincerely about the miseducation of your WORD, and the true working of the Holy Spirit within us, being clouded by vulnerability of our weaknesses (sin) As we open up ourselves through disobedience for the love and lust for the things of this world. The devil is telling us today like he did Jesus in the wilderness, Matthew 4:8-11 To worship him, and he’ll give us the world. Many people today are going through difficult times to survive, and just as Jesus was hungry in the wilderness after forty days of fasting and prayers, we are hungry and thirsty, but not for you. A lot of us has chosen to given into the devil and began to worship him, because our desires for money, accolades, and fame and all he has to offer us, far outweigh our love and reverence to you God. “I see it and feel it and I am angry.”

Christians are suppose to be the salt of the world and if we begin to be of the world, then we’re definitely losing our saltiness. The world is in subjection to repetition of history, a history we’ve tried and fought so hard to change. Look how far we’ve came to turn back now. If we don’t come together to stop what’s going on; take a look at history, try to comprehend, how well learnt are we not to repeat it.

I am writing this to you Lord, whose a reader of hearts and mind and I could be truthful with my feeling. But there’s a few people I feel the devil uses to provoke my soul I do want to cuss 🤬 for their wicked behaviour. Keep me back Lord, let not my slippery footsteps slide🙏

Drifting away from His truth and righteous?

“Oh righteousness and truth of God that should be within us, where are you?” At a loss for words for the actions of my fellow human beings. What are we perpetrating when we claim to be children of God when with all this hate towards one another and believing in man, rather than trusting and having faith in our God. History has proven that whenever humanity strays away from our Heavenly Father we encounter our own demise, for the Bible tells us so. I picture it like God holding onto us like a parent while crossing a busy road, and like a child wanting our own way, deliberately deciding to wiggle out of His grip and end up being hit by a vehicle. “Who’s then responsible? God, or we ourselves?” This is how I see our world today. We’re out of control with this free will business, free to lie, hate, discriminate, to kill, to threaten, treat each other with cruelty… Some of us are too immature for free will. We have to be grateful our God is loving, caring, forgiving, merciful, compassionate…God for the things we do especially towards one another and all His creations.

“Forgive us Father for we all have sinned and came short of your glory.” We acknowledge sin has been a conflict we’ve been battling within us throughout the ages as written in scriptures. The battle was no longer ours, it became Jesus for our sake and through Him and in Him we got the victory. But yet, once again humanity has gone astray from the path of righteousness and like in the days of Noah, Genesis 5:29, and Sodom and Gomorrah, Genesis 19:24…the lawlessness is so outrageous and out of control that it’s blinding the eyes and the minds even of His chosen. Matthew 24: 23-24 “Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo here is Christ, or there; believe it not. For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders, insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.

It all began with COVID-19 spreading across the entire world. Then, and only then, I believe the division began, sheep from the goats. I remembered the desperation for a vaccine, a cure, for so many lives were being taking by this pandemic and it had no discrimination of persons, regardless of religion, country, nation, government…the wave of it hit us all on plant earth. The division began because of its impact on every aspect of our lives as we had known it. The closing down of everything, the isolation we’ve all experienced and none contact with others as we’ve known and experienced took us into a deep dive in our mental and physical well being as it was out of our normality. This pandemic broke some of us to the point it brought out demons. But I also recognized angels guarded the heart and minds of those who remained strong and faithful because we believed the Lord would see us through, going deeper in faith rather than losing it. This pandemic has drawn out the best in some of us and if we were struggling from the get go the worst. Till now, it hasn’t stopped, because so many people whom had lost sight, is now ever so blinded, sad to say.

Just take a look at what’s going on in our world today, after the pandemic, if you’re somehow confused. Life may not have been perfect, but we weren’t as fearful of living, much less of World War III as we are today. It’s like evil has taken our vulnerability and fears of the apocalypse, armageddon as written in the book of Revelation being revealed in the pandemic and escalated it to where we are right now with the war in Ukraine with Russia, Jerusalem and Gaza, the threats and fears of democracy being eliminated by dictatorships creeping into good countries and nations as such; even to civil unrest within such countries and nations, especially the United States of America the Nation I believe was chosen by God to rule as the beacon of His purpose and will for all countries and nations to follow after their fall (America civil war, cruelty of slavery, segregation… God I believe gives control to those whom he has given power, but can humble themselves to His will like Jesus. Matthew 23:12 For those who exalted themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted. We must humble ourselves under God’s mighty hand that He may lift us up in due time, 1 Peter 5:6.

Are we faithfully carry out the work Jesus has given us to do in his absence until his return? Are we prepared for His return? Instead all of us so called Christians are lying, hating, accepting the deception and temptation of the devil, despising God’s truth for our own…not realizing that like Peter Satan has desires to have us, that he may sift us as wheat. (Luke 22:31) that our faith in God has now failed us. We rather put faith in a man, lies, wars to solve our problems. What happened to following Christ, and being Christ like. Who side are we on, when we rather accept, hatred, division, right out deceptions and lies. We are so blinded, that by sight, in light, we still can’t see and even by hearing, our hearing is distorted to truth. We can only hear what we want to hear, and that is our truth, our prospective of truth. “Help us Lord.”

Man is not falling, we already had fallen, but got up through Christ. But it’s our rebellious, disobedience actions in doing our own thing apart from God that’s causing our suffering. Adam and Eve didn’t have what we have, which is a light, our salvation, a redeemer and a mediator…one who is one with us and have the understanding of our infirmities that we can call on his name and be delivered. We find ourselves in the same predicament though as Adam and Eve because we’re lovers of the things of the world which the devil is using as bait to conform us.

Micah 6:8 He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness and to walk humbly with your God? If following in Jesus footsteps, let’s make no mistake! Remember Jesus disliked the works of the Pharisees and Scribes, so if you have their kind of mentality, check yourself Christians, Matthew 23:23.

The anointing of God to lead

We can’t mistake conning, manipulation, and deception as wisdom. For discernment is needed in administering justice as a leader. 1 King 3:5-8, 9 The Lord appeared to Solomon during the night in a dream,and God said, “ ask for whatever you want me to give you.” Solomon answered, “ your servant is here among the people you have chosen, a great people, too numerous to count or number. So give your servant a discerning heart to govern your people and to distinguish between right and wrong. For who is able to govern this great people of yours?”

When we reverence and fear God, we know to lead in His strength, not our own. The only characteristics needed to be a strong and successful leader begin with obedience to God in keeping His decrees and commandments. Through Him and in Him you’re given wisdom and a discerning heart. Pray always, be humble, love the Lord above all and thy neighbour as yourself, and have the genuine love for all humanity and God’s creation. You have to walk in oneness with the Lord, to have the eyes to see, the ears to hear, the mouth to speak and courage to fight like a warrior.

As I was reading about the wisdom of Solomon pertaining to his judgment on the two women who came to him concerning their babies, one alive, and one dead. Both claimed that the living baby was their own and that the other woman was only pretending to be the mother of the surviving infant, 1 King 3:16-28. To make a long story short, one woman accidentally killed her child and took the other woman’s, claiming the child was her own. They argued back and forth that the dead baby belongs to the other in the presence of the King who decided to cut the child in half and give each of them a part. The real mother of the baby cried out not to kill the baby, she loved him too much, so just give him to the other woman. The other woman shouted to go ahead and cut the baby in half, neither of them should have the baby. Solomon was able to discern the real mother who was willing to sacrifice her child, showing such selfless act to spare the life of the baby she loves so much.

This was an enlightening moment for me reflecting upon the actions of both women and King Solomon in the view of the world we’re living in today. Solomon in his infinite wisdom through God and in Him has shown me the power of God working through him. I saw him as having an added touch of God in him besides the spirit within and all his wealth. I’ve realized that we are God’s vessel and like Solomon, He’s able to fill you up with His strength and power to do the work you’re called to do. Solomon was born and called to lead. Today some people get involved with leadership for power, control…self interest. Solomon like Jesus at that moment has proven when Jesus had said to see me is to see the Father.

We praise Solomon for the wisdom, when it is God’s power working through him. Solomon at that time was so close and connected to God’s mind, body and soul. But like many of us we all know how the story ends, once his focus was taken off his relationship with God, and turned to the things of the world beginning with his wives. Like Adam and Eve tempted by the forbidden fruit in which he ate, sex. He stepped outside his continual presence, and strong relationships with the Almighty and focus on the lust and temptations of the world which through sex with his wives contaminated his soul. Now becoming infectious with sin falling short like his father David over lust, and temptations. Like sex, that intimacy, he once had with God alone was replaced with all his wives leaving him vulnerable to sin as his father David with Bathsheba his mother, 2 Samuel 11.

The two women represent the world we’re living in today; the battle between good (the righteousness of God) and evil (sin within us). Like Solomon, the women came before his presence in judgment so are we before God in His judgement towards us, who judges us wisely in all truth, honesty, and righteousness, not as man does. God is a reader of our hearts and our minds; able to discern our truth from our lies, Jeremiah 17:10.

The woman to whom was willing to sacrifice her child by giving him up, allowing him to have life is considered one of Gods own, because of her unconditional love and selfless act; He’s her shepherd. Scriptures declare that God the Shepherd says, His sheep hears His voice and I know them and they follow me…John 10:27-28. Would you be willing like this woman to make such a sacrifice and be able to stand boldly and declare you are a child of God? We spoke of Abraham for shadowing God in his willingness to sacrifice his son Isaac, but no one speaks of this woman like Mother Mary, the mother of Jesus whom also give up her son, Jesus.

The other woman, I referred to as the spawn of Satan to be so deceptive and cruel. Deceptive in taking the other woman’s baby after hers died and placing it next to her, having the audacity to say cut the baby in half so neither of them would have a baby, 1 King 3:26. It’s not rocket science to figure out who this woman belongs to. She showed herself to be selfish, envious, jealous…definitely not a child of God. Does your conduct and actions say like this woman you belong to Satan? Are you showing signs in your words and actions that you’re a child of God, following Jesus, and willing to sacrifice for the good? Or like your father the devil, are you willing to murder for your own selfish needs? Remember the wages of sin is death, so choose life, life eternal which is found in Christ Jesus. Are you for Him or against? Then let your actions speak louder than words, then make the sacrifice.

If you can only see evil for good and can justify it, I pray for you. Pray like you never prayed before for discernment and deliverance out of the hand of the enemy disguising evil for good as the righteousness of God. The Word, the Word needs to be your sword of your spirit, fight! Pray for an encounter with the Lord, that you couldn’t explain to man that make you so faithful in trusting Him like Saul, whose name was changed to Paul, Luke 22:31.

It’s fearful to me that in our world today, so many people would side with the woman who side to kill the baby so both of them would have no child. There are people who would believe her action as justifiable, saying at least she’s telling the truth. They believe in doing what it takes to be the victor and not the loser. They would claim she showed strength and courage in standing up for what she wants…etc. Lord have mercy on us! The thought that anyone could believe God would condone such action as good and righteous for us to all follow is incredibly misleading.

In the world today so many of us are misguided by the evil influences we’re calling good and righteousness of God.

God sends you out equipped!

Matthew 10: 9-23 1. Do not go among the Gentiles or the town of the Samaritan

2. Take nothing with you, like change of clothing, money, shoes, bag for the journey or staff.

3. Whatever town or village you enter, search there for some worthy person and stay at their house until you leave. As you enter the home, give it your greeting. If the home is deserving , let your peace rest on it; if it is not, let your peace return to you.

4. If anyone will not welcome you or listen to your words, leave that home or town and shake the dust off your feet. Jesus said, “ truly I tell you, it will be more bearable for Sodom and Gomorrah on the day of judgment than for that town.

5. “ I am sending you out like sheep among wolves. Therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves. Be on your guard; you will be handed over to the local councils and flogged. On my account you will be brought before governors and kings as witnesses to them and to the Gentiles. But when they arrest you…for it will not be you speaking, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you. Brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child; children will rebel against their parents and have them put to death. You will be hated by everyone because of me, but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved. When you are persecuted in one place, flee to another. Truly I tell you, you will not finish going through the towns of Israel before the Son of Man comes.

This was the test run for the disciples on what Jesus was here on earth teaching and preparing them to do after his departure. How well learnt were they in doing the will of the Father? Jesus sent them out with power and authority to drive out impure spirits and to heal every disease and sickness. This was a simple test, but the most important test for the twelve disciples. If Jesus can do a good work through them without dying; being resurrected and ascending to heaven, humanity survival from sin, like Noah and his family has hope after all to be saved.

It is important to understand that the Lord never gives us more than we can handle. But with obedience, no devil in hell can prevent you from the will and purpose of the Lord. What may seem impossible for you to do, acknowledge with obedience to God, all things are possible, so give Him glory, for it is a blessings to walk in obedience.

To highlights that should be within us, in our walk with Christ is Matthew 10:14-16. If anyone will not welcome you or listen to your words, leave that home or town and shake the dust off your feet. Jesus didn’t die and ascended to heaven, neither has the Holy Spirit came. The importance of the very dust not clinging to the disciples feet from those people or town who rejected them, represents how much of the blessings and glory of the Lord they are walking with and how it can strongly impact those lives who will accept it. Jesus is saying to the disciples, “leave those who chooses to remain in their darkness at that time, for the time was not yet right, that their eyes be open.” The souls was also vulnerable to be contaminated by powers and principalities of those people, towns and villages bound in sin and they could unknowingly take it with them wherever they may travel.

Matthew 10:16: “I am sending you out like sheep among wolves. Therefore be as shrewd as snake and innocent as dove. Even a shrewd snake knows to strike(bite) if a wrong move is made by someone or anything. If you’re a sheep being sent out among wolves, you must be in survival mode if knowingly you’re going to be eaten by a wolf, you better know to fight. A serpent is wise in knowing how to take down big prey with just one bite. Don’t be fooled that you have to be nice, peaceful and full of wisdom in order to take action for your safety. Jesus never said to run or don’t bite. The innocent of a dove is bring Gods glory and grace (peace, hope, renewal, love, unity…blending in with others.) Jesus didn’t send out the disciples with a boastful, obnoxious, narcissistic attitude.

Matthew 10: 23 When you are persecuted in one place, flee to another. Truly I tell you, you will not finish going through the towns of Israel before the Son of Man comes. This was only applicable to the disciple back in those days? Jesus was prophesying that they would not complete this task because he knew they would go astray once he was arrested and it would take His resurrection and the descendants of the Holy Spirit to enable the disciples with greater power and strength . The disciples lacked in faith after seeing all that Jesus suffered. It was the power of the Holy Ghost which fell on them like tongues of fire empowered them. It took the power and strength through Christ Jesus to empower them all and excluding us today.

Let’s meditate on this wisdom of God. He send us out equipped. The circumstances with following Christ ain’t easy. You are challenged beyond your capabilities, the reason you have to walk in faith. Jesus is standing with us even though we’re equipped, because like the disciples, we sometimes loose faith when situations becomes more than we can bear or handle. The disciples were warned they were going to be arrested, beaten and hated for His sake, but through the power of the Holy Spirit that fell on them, their strength and faith was renewed. The hardest thing is feeling you’re alone in a battle with so many enemies. Jesus who walk among us and took on our infirmities knows when we need our hands to be held, for he, himself cried out to the Father on the cross, why have you forsaken me? He doesn’t ever want us to feel the battle is ours alone. That why He will never leave us comfortless, nor forsake us.

We don’t fight alone. We step into the rink with Christ in a fight, to fight along side with him. He started the war against the enemy we couldn’t conquer on our own and equipped us with the tools and guidance through obedience to continue until He comes to finish it. He enables us to stand up to the bully who continues to try and take us down.

The hidden woman of God

Revelation 12:6 The woman fled into the wilderness to a place prepared for her by God, where she might be taken care of for 1,260 days.

The Lord kept the Mary’s(women) silent until now. He knew the dragon would be after her for what she was about to conceive and birth in the earth to destroy it. He kept her silent for such a time as this. She wasn’t crowned queen of Heaven, the Earth and Crucifix(the cross) for no reason. For her faithfulness, like her son Jesus in the garden of Gethsemane, is fulfilling His will and purpose saying to the angel Gabriel, “behold, I am the servant of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word.” Luke 1:38

Today if you have eyes to see, I pray you’re seeing, and ears to hear I pray you’re hearing the things the Lord is making well known to humanity about sin and it’s power over us is coming to an end. If we’d only walk in obedience to His truth and righteousness following after His son Jesus, we shall not be moved by what’s going on in the world today. We spoke of the paradigm shift for years that was to be taking place in the earth, “it has been fulfilled.” God’s Hidden Woman, all the Mary’s(women) in the earth are being placed in position, to birth the one and only true ruler of the earth, Jesus. “The spirit of the Lord is surrounding us.

Man is looking at the outside appearance of a woman; perceiving that she’s too weak, to lead or rule. Not recognizing how much of a vessel of God, like himself she is. She’s the soil He uses to grow and nurture them, even from her womb. Her strength to form, carry and then birth them all comes from Him. She never forgets His loving touch, for He is her first love as a virgin, to place man in her womb. From a baby to a man, it’s through the power of God within a woman that birth and nurture a valiant man of God.

In the Bible, no where can it be found that the Antichrist is a woman. For those who have ears to hear let them hear the word of the Lord. We have the choice to change destiny or should I say prophecy. Nothing where God is concern for humanity is unchangeable or impossible for redemption, it’s already done. God allows man to choose. From the beginning with Adam and Eve He gave choice, “if you eat of the tree of good and evil, you shall surely die, every other tree you can eat.” He didn’t create robots, but He was teaching like Jesus did, even back then. If God didn’t want Adam and Eve to eat of the fruit of good and evil He would have fenced it around to prevent them from getting to it. Yet, He told them of the consequences of doing so. It was first lesson of obedience children.

We shouldn’t have to get burn continually to realize fire burns. “How well learnt are we.” Echoing to us today. We should know and understand from Genesis to Revelation we are fighting against forces more powerful than we can control without being obedient to God. This thing called sin, and the instigator of it all the, devil. The Bible to which I call, the biography of humanity struggles with sin because of disobedience and God’s never ending love, guidance, protection and salvation; the navigation of what it takes to overcome and how it will be overcome. We were given the tools and the lessons in obedience. We must learn from Jesus, “not my will, but Your will be done.” The key is Jesus, through Him we are able to overcome all obstacles preventing us from drawing nearer to God and fulfilling His will and purpose.

“The spirit of the Lord is surrounding us, trust and believe.” Philippians 1:6 And I am certain that God , who began the good work within you, will continue His work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns. God plans is in works already! “Stand still and see his salvation.”

God never sends you out with fear, but with power for the challenges you’ll face

When we can understand and acknowledge His strength is made perfect in our weakness, then, and only then, can we recognize, through Him we can do all things. No power or strength have we, of our own. To see me is to see the Father, it’s not my will, but His will be done. Jesus, became me, this sinner, to set me free from the bondage of sin. To say I live for Him, is to surrender my entire being to His will, and purpose for my life. Even when I am tired, frustrated, overwhelmed and depressed, His power keeps me going.

Matthew 10:16 “Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves. Mark 16:18 They shall take up serpents: and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

Why are you still ignorant oh men and women of God? “Judge not lest you be judge.” What God meant for good, why do you see it as evil? Pray and ask for discernment before you speak the things you know nothing about, concerning the Masters’ will and purpose. “All things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called, according to His purpose ” Romans 8:28. David was knowledgeable enough to know, when it came to God’s anointed Paul, not to kill him. 1 Samuel 26:9 “And David said to Alishai, “destroy him not, for who can stretch forth his hand against the Lord’s anointed, and be guiltless?

So many of us are wrong to judge or condemn the Lord’s anointing. Why do we feel so equal to God that we can pin point His errors? With man who fight not against flesh, but powers and principalities… as revealed to Paul Ephesians 6:12. The Lord knows our weaknesses. Jesus had recognized in the garden of Gethsemane that mans spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak. “I resent having to always quoting Christ, “ forgive them Father for they know not what they do.” Really! I truly believe if you read and understand the scriptures as you proclaim, it’s not rocket science to you who do claim to know Gods thoughts and feelings like the Pharisees and scribes who surely thought they knew and understood, yet the first sign of Jesus ability for doing good, resented Him and saw Him as a threat. Pray and ask for discernment, whenever uncertain, let the Holy Ghost, the revealer of truth reveal it to you; trust in Him, walk by faith, not by sight or your own understanding.

How to discern when someone is following Christ, is to follow in His footsteps of unconditional love for all humanity. You’re hated by man for doing good. They could never find anything you’ve done wrong, but yet, want to destroy you, always fault finding in everything you do and say. Only God can bring you down, no one but the Lord has power over your life. The enemy uses their self righteous attitude of slander, hate and envy to try and destroy the Lord’s anointed with no success. They are always plotting, with no victory over the Lord’s anointed. Saul tried many times to kill David with no success.

A touch from God in your struggles

Genesis 32:25 When the man saw that he, Jacob could not overpower him, he touched the socket of Jacob’s hip so that his hip was wrenched as he wrestle with the man. Jacob from then on was limping because of his hip.

Acts 9:1-4 Saul fell to the ground…2 Corinthians 12:6-7 Now Paul, spoke about the thorn in his flesh. God told Paul His power is made perfect in his, Paul weakness. The Lord proclaimed that His grace was fully capable of providing everything Paul needed to endure his suffering.

Have you ever struggled with God to the point, like Jacob and Paul you were left with a thorn in your flesh? As so eloquently described by Paul. What’s the thorn in your flesh? A thorn in your flesh is anything that disrupts your normal physical well being in your body, yet you are functional. It’s a reminder of your physical and spiritual dependence on the Lord. I came to realize that your thorn can also be mental, emotional or conscious, such as fear or anything that makes you rely only on God, because no one but God is able to make the impossible possible for you in your live. You’ll learn to acknowledge His power working within you when fear no longer controls over you. His power working within enable you to do whatever He has called you to, even doing it scared regardless. Bold assurance and fresh courage somehow over takes you whether it’s fear, your health…whatever your struggles maybe, reminds us that God strength is made perfect in our weakness. God does whatever it takes to get our attention, but sometimes we’re much too distracted by life to acknowledge it.

You are marked with humility in Christ to submit your will to the Heavenly Father’s, lest you forget whose you are, with that touch that can leave you totally relying on the Heavenly Father. Whenever we get beside ourselves, to think too highly of one self, you have a constant reminder to stay (in your lane) in other words, on your knees in prayer remaining close to God. You are touched! Jesus in the garden of Gethsemane had a touch. That touch happened when all His power was stricken from Him for what He was about to face. Jesus the man was separated from Jesus the deity in the garden of Gethsemane. No strength or power of His own, lead like a lamb to the slaughter, giving up His power; subject to physical, mental, and emotional torture and felt everything like we do.

When God has revealed Himself to us in our struggles He touches us. For some people who are unable to recognize the touch as Paul and Jacob had, they consider it a curse on their lives. Even with this knowledge given through Paul and Jacob some people are born with a touch, not even aware of what the touch is, or meant to be in their lives. When Jesus was asked by his disciples in John 9: 1-3 who sinned, the blind man or his parents that he was born blind. Jesus answered, “ neither the blind man nor his parents sinned, but it happened so that the work of God might be displayed in his life.” Even though the blind man had struggles in life as being born blind he survived, to be given his sight and God the glory. God will and purpose was completed in him. It was his time in his struggle to be touched to show Gods power.

We have to stop hating our live and having high expectation feeling like a failure over and over again without asking in prayer for the Lord to guide and lead us in His will and purpose for your life, especially as faithful believers in God. We have to ask for discernment to the voice of God in our lives and recognize the touch. Do you feel the thorn in your flesh? Then give Him praise! The thorn is working for your good, it’s a “Touch!”

The Eclipse, the hand of God!

Why celebrate? Because the hand of God was shown to all humanity around the world to see. Within that four minutes of totality as we immersed in the darkness, I felt something moved within me, as the darkness passes over for that moment, then sun swiftly began to shine again. I was filled with so much emotions. I was fearful, yet joyful, worried about humanity. But as my heart was filled with so much love, there was a sense of God hands moving the moon as He held the sun still, then tears fell from my Eyes. For a moment I vision Jesus on the cross again being crucified. The earth quaked, the curtain was tornado in the temple and the sun was eclipsed. I felt within my spirit that this is more than just a historical moment phenomenon. It was like God speaking to humanity, “ you do know truth, even to when things are going to take place and has taken place, but yet you have no control, I am in control.” Even though we were given the knowledge of this phenomenon there was nothing man could have done, it was all in Gods hands. A confession of the existence of God we can’t deny. Not even ignorance or science can explain the purpose of the eclipse or could take away what was felt in my spirit, “truth of God existence revealed.”

God has shown that darkness is but for a moment, and light cannot be overshadowed by darkness it will still find a way to shine through. Darkness is passing through y’all. We must be careful not to find ourselves overshadowed by the darkness. “Please don’t go over to the dark side.” Times are very difficult and our flesh will be tested. Be aware of thoughts in your mind and heart, that are going to be over taken by ego. Ego is going to make you feel entitled, everything is about you, and you come first before everyone and everything. Your love is going to run cold, etc. Stand in faith recognizing a child of God is about love and humility. When you find love is slipping away from you and bitterness and hate is trying to take control, pray. Pray and plead with the Holy Spirit to be not withdrawn from you, help you to discern and remember who Jesus is in you and whose you are. Remain in the light at all cost! The darkness is inviting and tempting, before you know it you’re justifying evil as being good. Some people are already on the dark side saying evil is good, can’t discern between right and wrong, fallen and have no idea.

There’s a time and season for everything according to scriptures, Ecclesiastes 3:1-8. We’re in a time of war, killing, tearing down, weeping and mourning, time to scatter, time to refrain from embracing, time to give up, time to throw away, time to speak, and a time to hate. The present of Lord is also prevalent, as the wows of life will increase. Those who have faith will understand it like a woman in labour; our troubles and suffering will not cease until the Lord’s will be done in earth, and it will feel like the spirit of God has left the world, but hold on, it’s within you. Those who don’t lose faith but continue to pray will be anchored in the Lord to withstand these trying times.

Covid 19 pandemic deaths, lockdowns and isolation, Donald Trumps presidency, all that had taken place like the death of George Floyd Jr. etc., the fires, war in Ukraine, tornado, hurricane, earthquakes, war in Jerusalem, old diseases returning, every man/woman through fame and fortune looked upon as a star or to idolize, has fallen from grace in our sight, the leap-year and now the eclipses. Humanity, through the wisdom, knowledge and understanding of the Heavenly Father, if well learnt, we can change our destiny from our own destruction, to victory over the enemy and sin through obedience to God. God is waiting for us all to gather before Him as we did for the eclipse, prepared with the word within our mind, body and soul, as we were with our glasses. The Word is our protective shield from the enemy. We need possess it to break through the chains of the enemy to get to His presence.

No greater sin!

Romans 6:23 “ For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 3:23-24 All of us have sinned and fallen short of God’s glory. But God treats us much better than we deserve, and because of Christ Jesus, he freely accepts us and sets us free from our sins.

Jesus prophesied to Peter that Satan was going to come after him. First Peter had proclaimed that Jesus is the son of God; then the next moment he pleaded with Jesus not to go to be crucified. Matthew 16:13: 23. And at the last supper Peter once again proclaimed that he was ready to go with Jesus to prison or to death, when Jesus predicted to him, the rooster will crow three times and he will deny him. Luke 22:34.

Peter, truly loved Jesus and could have never perceived himself doing against him. We art to consider deeply within ourselves this question, “what then caused him to?” The fact Jesus was able to predict Peter’s betrayal speak volume of his comprehends with the struggles man endures because of sin. Peter was adamant to stand with Jesus even proof when he cut off the ear of the soldiers and Jesus had rebuked him, John 18:10-11.

Was Judas a worst sinner than Peter? We all know it’s because of him Jesus was captured and taken to be crucified, being paid thirty pieces of silver. Jesus also predicted that he was the one whom would betray him; being the one he’d dipped his bread in the dish and gave a piece. As soon as Judas took the bread, Satan entered into him. John 13: 21-27.

Noticed in the presence of Jesus Satan wasn’t welcome, neither did he present himself. Judas had already collected the thirty pieces of silver, but yet carried on like he had no idea he would ever be the one to betray Jesus. Think for a moment deeply, was he telling the truth? Like Peter I believe he truly believed he wasn’t, because it was only when given the dipped bread, with Jesus permission, Satan then entered him. His feet were washed as being part with Jesus, he wasn’t excluded from the rest of disciples as Jesus’s own. John 13:2-11. When realizing what he had done to Jesus Judas killed himself. Matthew 27:3-10. Satan had entered in Judas, but when he had accomplished his evil, left Judas. The love Judas had for Jesus is what broke him when realizing he was wrong for betraying him. But regardless, it was God’s plan and purpose just like with Job, wasn’t it now? Just think about this for a moment. Satan was given permission once again. He came upon Peter to prevent Jesus in a deceptive manner not go and be crucified, immediately after Peter had proclaimed Jesus the son of God.

From light to darkness, good to bad, righteous to unrighteousness when would it ever stop, the conflict in man because of sin. Between both Peter and Judas only God can judge. And just because Judas killed him self doesn’t mean his sin was greater, it was once again choice. God surely didn’t kill him, he predicted he was going to do it. Matthew 26:24. Peter had felt exactly the same way after denying Jesus and decided was to quit being a disciple and go back to fishing. Jesus after his resurrection went to Peter to restored him back to fellowship. John 21.

Psalm 51, the psalm of forgiveness proves, according to David verse 17 “ The sacrifice of God is a broken spirit, a broken and contrite heart, O God thou will not despise.”

The wages of sin is death and we all die, no one lives forever. None is without sin, so we can’t cast any stones. Romans 7:18-22For I know that good itself does not dwell in me, that is, in my sinful nature. For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out. For I do not do the good I want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it. So I find this law at work: Although I want to do good, evil is right there with me. For in my inner being I delight in God’s law, but I see another law at work in me, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin at work within me.

The greatest motivation for Jesus to go to the cross is love, unconditional love

There’s no greater love shown to humanity than Jesus who laid down his life for us with an unconditional love in spite of our ingratitude. “Crucify, crucify him was the shout, from those who followed him received miracles and those his haters whom were envious and jealous and fearful of him. The stranger who only knew him for what he had said and done. But as a man would do, Jesus didn’t retaliate with malice or hate, especially to those closest to him like Peter who denied him and Judas who betrayed him. Jesus had predicted everything that was going to happen to him, yet he surrendered to it all without any repercussions to anyone other than himself; allowing them to crucify him.

As followers of Christ, we know we have an enemy within(ourselves) and without(devil) to conquer. Jesus was one with the Father, as we his follower must also be one with him. How can we be following him and don’t have love in us as he does for all sinners? Unconditional love, is what allows you to surrender like him when crucified, not on a cross, but in your heart and mind, so devastatingly wounded, a hurt to the point of brokenness of your spirit. We are of flesh and blood, but the comfort of the Holy Ghost, the gift of Jesus to us, within guides and gives us the strength to press on.

The greatest commandment said by Jesus is one, love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind. And the second is, love your neighbour as yourself.

Let’s not loose sight of what Jesus came into this world to do for humanity; how and why it was done. John 3:16- 17 For Gos so loved the world that, he gave his only begotten Son…For God did not send his son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. It all began with love when God had sent his son and end with it. His presence is found whenever love strongly abides.
