Stay In Tune With God….

by Leave a Comment

The Lord plainly tells us how to recognize a false prophet or someone that claims to be a child of God by the fruit they bare. If there is no fruit then they are illegitimate children without the roots which keep them intact to feed the people. Many people talk the talk but there is a major difference in someone who walks the walk and those that raise themselves up into a position that is to be given by God.

God spoke to Moses and then instructed him to speak to Aaron in order to teach us how to recognize the Word of God that speaks through the leaders He raises up. Since the vale has been torn God now speaks in many ways that we often miss simply because we don’t know His Word. For how can we recognize the Word if we don’t know the Word and how can we see something if we don’t know what we are looking for? I urge you to to step out of the world in order to listen for the Truth. The longer we sleep the more we miss and the further we fall the harder the hit. If you recall the time frame of Eli and Samuel the lamp was dim without vision because the people had drifted away from God… May I urge you to hear the call and to recognize the signs for our children’s future….Enjoy this video by Lee Greenwood http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q65KZIqay4E and may it inspire you to STAND UP in the Truth of God…

Spiritual Warfare Tactics…

by Leave a Comment

If you were to study spiritual warfare you would find that the art of war is to walk behind the enemy lines and learn the weaknesses of the opponent in order to turn their weaknesses into strengths. As the enemy walks in the camp he or she opens the doors for others of its kind to enter. The object of the enemy is to infiltrate the camp to the point where its opponent gets weak and to those who don’t surrender then the enemy will take them out in order to gain control.

This is what has taken place here in America and if we don’t WAKE UP to this Truth then we better prepare for what is sure to come! God has given us dominion over this earth but without the knowledge of His Word and the discernment between good and evil then we are prey for the spiritual enemy of Satan. Tactfully Satan has slithered into the homes and robbed many fathers of how to be men of God. Then from this the spirit of Satan has slipped into many churches to gain control from the pulpits in order to weaken the people and to cause disunity within the body. This disunity has caused many other denominations to bring further division within the people by causing many to fight for the head position that has been already put into place through Jesus Christ. With all of this and much more this warfare tactic this has allowed Satan to seize control through ungodly leadership which is tearing down the American country.

God gave us this country as He gave the Jews Israel and if we don’t WAKE UP to face the Truth then our days of freedom are numbered before the spiritual enemy of Satan seizes control! If you want change then it first starts with you and then it spreads to your home then to your community and then to the nation. If you were to seriously look within your home who would you find in control? Would it be God or would it be Satan? If you think that you are in control without admitting that God is first then you are only deceiving yourself and giving victory to the enemy….I pray that America WAKES UP to this Truth and begins to recognize where we got off course in order to turn back to God for our children’s future….

Don’t Miss The Boat…

by Leave a Comment

Have you ever really thought about why Jesus was ridiculed and crucified on the cross? As God sent His Son here to open up our eyes and ears He was here to show us the Way. Jesus was put on the cross not because He was guilty but because He was innocent but the ones who had positions of control did not like the message of freedom and equality that He delivered. This affected their traditions, their positions, their finances and it affected their stature of intellect.

Rather than humbling themselves to receive the Truth they fought against the Way because of where the message was coming from and it did not fit their human expectations. The spirit of Truth belongs to our Father and it can be spoken from even a donkey if the Lord choose. God teaches us this throughout His Holy Word and He sent His only begotten Son to teach us that this temporary life is not about what we see but about learning how to believe.

With this being said the next time someone comes from another direction to give you some advice may I encourage you to listen to the heart to insure that you are not missing something that needs to be heard. Too many times we miss what God has right before us because we have either become deaf, hard hearted, or blind. We are taught in Hebrews 13:8 that Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, and today, and forever but if we don’t know how to listen or see then we could be missing the boat…

What Kind Of Fan Are You?

by Leave a Comment

Have you ever noticed how many of the fans in the stands of a hockey game rise up during a fight? Have you ever noticed how many fans in Nascar tend to be waiting on a wreck as the race intensifies? Have you ever noticed how many reporters are waiting on something juicy to report in the news that tears someone down instead of lifting someone up? Or, have you ever witnessed someone when climbing a mountain with God how many people stand around waiting on the fall instead of encouraging them to reach their call?

There is a spiritual lesson behind all of this when we open up our eyes to look beyond the moment to receive the overall message. First off all we must recognize that this battle here is not against flesh and blood but spiritual powers beyond the human eye. As we recognize that Satan is here to steal, kill, and destroy and begin to break everything down to simply good and evil then we can discover the spirits which often guide our actions.

As the crowd chanted for the crucifixion of Jesus we can witness within many hockey games the chant for a fight. As we listen to the crowds at Nascar speaking of a wreck we can witness life and death in the tongue. Like the reporters who want to crucify an individual instead of reporting something that will lift someone up. The same spirit of jealousy or disbelief often waits at the bottom to pounce on someone as they fall. What is wrong with this picture? God’s Word teaches us that everything that is good is of God and everything that is bad is of the devil. Don’t miss this spiritual message and if you find yourself sitting around waiting on someone to fall maybe you are the one missing God’s call…

He Died For Us To Live…

by Leave a Comment

Mark 15:16 The soldiers led Jesus away into the palace and called together the whole company of soldiers. 17 They put a purple robe on him, then twisted together a crown of thorns and set it on him. 18 And they began to call out to him, “Hail, king of the Jews!” 19 Again and again they struck him on the head with a staff and spit on him. Falling on their knees, they paid homage to him. 20 And when they had mocked him, they took off the purple robe and put his own clothes on him. Then they led him out to crucify him.

Before some of you get upset about the statement of Jesus dying please recall that I am speaking of His physical death which brings us spiritual life. As I am completing another study on the life of Christ it broke my heart this morning to read this scripture in Mark 15 and see how cruel humanity is without God. The Lord has shown me how humans are nothing more than cannibalistic animals without His Word and His spirit of peace. As you think about animals there are many different types, some that show their teeth and some that are in disguise. The ones which are in disguise are the ones that pose the most danger and this is why it wise to have the discernment between good and evil. For without your senses in tune then you never know what lies around the corner or who could be standing by your side….

Spiritual Revelations

Don’t be like Eli in 1st Samuel and miss something that has been given by God. If you recall with Eli he did not listen because the Word of God was rare in those days and he did not recognize what was taking place until he saw the persistence of Samuel…
