THE CROSS

Has someone you know or a complete stranger done something to help or, bless you? At the time, these individuals stand out in our minds. But little by little, as time goes by, we tend to forget how important this act of kindness was to us. Take time every morning and throughout your day to remember all that occurred before, during, and after our Lord’s death on the cross. For you will be drawn closer to Him, living in an attitude of gratitude leading to worship and praise, living in the Spirit all through your day. The enemy won’t have a chance to diminish in your memory this gracious and loving sacrifice because you will be worshipping in the presence of your King, ever mindful of this great gift.

Spiritual Desire

spiritual desire

  I believe that our spiritual desire to know God better is one of His greatest joys. How He desires to make Himself known to us! The Lord has revealed Himself in His Word and made His Word available to us. Jesus has sealed us as His own, placing in us the Holy Spirit who guides us into all truth.

The Holy Spirit gives power, as He lives in you and is upon you, to do His will to bless others with truth and love. To do as we are commanded to do as Jesus did and even greater things. In Jesus name. Casting out demons and laying hands on the sick to be healed. All aas signs of the Kingdom of God.

All creation proclaims His glory. The enemy diligently works to diminish your desire to know God. Through accusations and lies he tries to convince you that God does not desire a relationship with you, that you are not worthy. Let the goodness and love of your Savior continue to draw you to a deeper love relationship with your heavenly Father. Guard this relationship carefully, nourish it, and let it grow!

I Am He

   To know God’s names is to know God. In them we see His unchanging character. When God tells you, “I AM THAT I AM,” He is showing you His true essence. Absolute integrity, truthfulness, no darkness at all; what you see is what you get. In a world of manipulation it is comforting to know that the one true living God comes to you in complete openness and honesty. And you never have to worry about Him changing. These same qualities are seen in Jesus; He is the Creator of the heavens and the earth, and He is your Savior. He dwells within you, upon you, goes ahead of you, and comes behind you. There is great and mighty power in His Name. This power is His love for you. Remember that He who is in you is greater than your enemy who is in the world.

As they hated Jesus, so they will also hate you. Stand firm! Continue on the path God has called you to, despite rejection. In love, use the Scripture you have learned when sharing your faith with others and let the Holy Spirit minister to their hearts. No matter how despised and rejected you are by the world, remember that you are precious in God’s sight. The battle is God’s; let Him handle the world’s rejection and hatred.

Snatch someone from the fire

snatch someone from the fire

      We, the children of God, know the outcome of the battle that we are engaged in. The enemy deceives himself and others, by his pride, that the ending will be different. Remembering that his end is sure will give you comfort and courage to fight the good fight of the faith and not to become weary. You have been set free from the enemy to throw off anything that might hinder your walk with Christ!  Those who do not believe will be thrown out from the presence of God, which is not God’s desire for them. He loves them and wants them to be with Him. Heeding these warnings should give us a sense of compassion and urgency to share our faith with others. Keep them in mind as you go out among the world. Be available to be used to snatch someone from the fire.

Apply the Word of God to Your Life

Apply the Word of God to your Life Blog/Vlog Meekness

Read, study, memorize, and apply the Word of God to your life. The defense against the enemy starts here. Without the Word you walk through a battle zone defenseless. Memorizing the Word of God is a good start, but it is not enough; you must know when and how to use the Scriptures. You must be able to recall them, by the power of the Holy Spirit, in time of temptation and trial. This takes practice and drilling of the Word. All Scripture will help in your battle to live a righteous and holy life. Stay in the Word of God daily. Let God equip and minister to you through His Word. The Word of God is also to be spoken to others to encourage, exhort, comfort and warn the Body of Christ.

The Lie of Gluttony

What does the Word of God say about Glut·tony

 noun \ˈglət-nē, ˈglə-tə-nē\: the act or habit of eating or drinking too much.

plural glut·ton·ies Full Definition of GLUTTONY

1:  excess in eating or drinking
2:  greedy or excessive indulgence

[Pro 23:1 NIV] When you sit to dine with a ruler, note well what is before you,
[Pro 23:2 NIV] and put a knife to your throat if you are given to gluttony.

[Deu 21:20 KJV] And they shall say unto the elders of his city, This our son [is] stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey our voice; [he is] a glutton, and a drunkard.
[Pro 23:21 KJV] For the drunkard and the glutton shall come to poverty: and drowsiness shall clothe [a man] with rags.

So what

that I am a few pounds or maybe even more than a few pounds overweight? What does that have to do with my love and devotion to God? Who really cares anyway? These are some of the rebellious defense thoughts that my flesh spews when confronted with the lie of Gluttony.

I know, my body is the temple of the Holy Spirit. But is it really about the physical health of my physical body? If it were, those who have medical illnesses would be in peril of accusation of the enemy of not loving the Lord. So maybe it’s not about the outside flesh but a matter of light and darkness that dwells within this body of flesh in my heart and will. The Temple is a place where the Lord dwells and we meet with Him. So the question is, “Has my temple been defiled by a lie of the enemy?” What is the thought that allows me to continue to over eat?

My thoughts that lead to gluttony are justified by the whispers of my enemy. It can be justified selfishness, pride and rebellion of wanting what I want when I want it. Deceived into not really caring about how the Lord feels about it. I forget about the starving and dying. The neighbors not far away that go hungry each night.

It has been written that physical longevity of life is gained in the gym and weight loss is gained in the kitchen. Does God really care if I am “FAT”. Probably not, but He sure cares about my reckless behavior of self pleasure.

Here is a physical and scriptural self-defense technique to remind me of the truth that Jesus is there and loves us.

Continue to lift one another up before the throne of God

The enemy would have us turn our backs on one another – physically in our relationships, and spiritually in prayer. He would also like us to believe that God does not care about us and has abandoned us. But Jesus, the Holy Spirit, and God the Father each in His own way continually intercedes for us. In the Scriptures, we also see men interceding for one another through prayer. Continue to lift one another up before the throne of God. Make a list and use it as your daily marching orders. Stay on your knees and continue to fight the good fight of the faith.

The enemy uses every worldly means, including our own flesh, to give us direction for our lives. And the direction that he desires is away from God. He uses TV, counselors, friends, self-help books, seminars, emotions, even family members… anything and anyone who does not direct us to God and His Word. But God has placed inside every believer the wonderful Counselor, the Holy Spirit; and He has given us His Word, the Holy Bible. All that we could ever need for perfect guidance has been given to us! The living God, who knows all things, dwells inside of us; and He desires to guide us into all truth. Seek God’s guidance daily; He promises to give generously to all who ask.

Expect God to do what He promises

When we expect something to happen, we believe and do not doubt the outcome. When we pray, Jesus encourages us to expect God to do what He promises. We can expect God to love us, to never forsake us, to provide for us, to comfort us, to empower us, to bless us, to give us grace and peace, and to stay the same yesterday, today, and forever. Be sure you understand that we do not hold power over God. Our expectation is based upon God’s character, Who He is, our loving sovereign Lord. Watch out for thoughts that put you on the throne! The enemy wants us to that believe we belong there. Expect God to do what He promises.
