Keep Guard!

Things going in in this world are getting deeper and deeper, keep your eyes are ears open saints and don't be so quick to cast aside information given to you when somebody is trying to open your eyes to the truth of whats happening right under your nose. NOW IS THE TIME TO BE MORE WATCHFUL THAN EVER BEFORE!! ............For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.-Ephesians 6:12

May 21, 2011

I can’t begin to touch on the thoughts of many on May 21st when it was predicted by a radio show host that the return of Christ would be evident at 6 PM. Those of us that know the word of God is familiar with the scripture that states that no man knows the day or hour that Jesus will return to earth, only the Father in Heaven knows (Mark 13:32). When we begin to entertain the private interpretation of man in regards to the scriptures we step into the danger zone. God said be not deceived for many false prophets shall come forth. What is a false prophet? A false prophet is someone who claims to have a divine revelation but the prophecy doesn’t come to past. (Deuteronomy 18:22) Many in this age have come through and deceived many with their false revelations. People have lost their lives, money, and even their faith all because they put their trust in what a man said rather than clinging to what God has said. Don’t be tricked! I don’t care what a man says if it doesn’t line up with scripture take heed to not be seduced by his charm and be led away blindly. The Bible says test all things. (1 John 4:1)

I believe some are here to purposely bring about confusion and hearsay to confuse people but we must remember God is not the author of confusion. I also believe some in their prideful, arrogant state believe in their heart that they know more than the next, but nobody is wiser than the Almighty. I encourage you not to stake your life on what man says or his self-proclaimed justifications trust God alone for truth and Salvation. Not what another man says, nor yourself. God is not a man that he should lie and he makes no mistakes, I repeat he makes no mistakes. When he does something he does it right and perfect every time. There is no question mark behind nothing he does!

No, Jesus didn’t make his return to earth bodily on the 21st of May but be not fooled he will be returning and his return is going to be just like his word states, “like a thief in the night” so keep watch at all times. The 21st had people keeping watch whether it was for his return or to just to further mock the legitimacy of the scriptures because this man was proven wrong. Those who have mocked God and his word because of this man’s false revelation really have nothing to do with God nor his word because it still stands. We should be in a state of watchfulness for the Lord at all times because it will happen without a known date as the Bible says. Jesus did give signs that would point to his coming being near. The signs are all around us; let’s not pretend to be blind. God will not be mocked; a man will surely reap what he sows. People are mocking him left and right because to some degree they put stake in the words of a false prophet so now they are saying, “See, he’s not coming back, “he’s not real”, just like they said in the days of Noah before the flood came and washed them all away, those who were not safe and secure in the ark. The ark was a type of Christ, safety was found in it from the destruction of the Lord, just as safety will be found in Jesus when the destruction of the Almighty comes upon the earth soon. The time is now; don’t miss your moment of opportunity. When Jesus cracks the sky and returns to get those of us that he has prepared a place for so that we can be with him there is going to be weeping and mourning because the unsaved will be looking upon the face of their only Savior and some will come to the realization that it wasn’t all just a fable, Jesus is real and they have been found by God in a state of unbelief and missed their opportunity to be saved from his just wrath. If you don’t know the Lord PLEASE seek him. I don’t wish hell on one single soul but I sure wouldn’t want God to find me in a state of unbelief, God is giving us more time, take heed please, open your heart, mind, and spirit to the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. (John 3:16-17)

Blessings and Love,

Take a good look around you....

Take a good look around you. There is so much deception going on in the world today, and most of it is cleverly hidden. We need to start examining things more closely and testing spirits because we are subtlety being exposed to so much ungodly stuff. Many are being deceived and don't even know it. The enemy is reprogramming our thoughts and desensitizing us to evil and most of us don’t even have a clue.

Many are missing the signs of how deep the world is in occultism. We have become followers of the wrong things. We worship idols when God says that we should make nothing in this world our idol. Money and power are the top two things people seem to be chasing because they think the glamorous life is the best way to live. Daily they see their favorite celebs living it up and their desire is to live the same. Who doesn’t want the best things in life but is it worth the price of your soul to get it? Fame and Fortune may look good outwardly but there is a price most pay to have it all. God said what does it profits a man to gain the whole world but loose his soul.

The Bible says, “The natural mind cannot discern the things of the spirit”. This is the reason why so many are clueless of the movement all around us. See, it’s hard to be in the world and recognize the things in it that are ultimately damaging to oneself. We are to be in the world but not of it. God does not want us to be conformed to its images. We should be looking different, those of us in Christ. The only sad thing is so many are in and of the world because they have no personal relationship with Christ. We are losing a lot of the newer generation to drugs, alcohol, perversion, the dark side, you name it. Those caught up in the world can’t see things clearly. The idols they worship they desire to immolate and or have what they have. They hold these individuals in such high esteem that they can’t comprehend seeing them doing or being accused of anything wrong. Don't let Satan brain wash you. All that glitters is not gold; the grass is not always greener on the other side.

This generation is heavily influenced by entertainers, mere folks like you and I only with different occupations and salaries who will just like us have to answer to God for their choices and actions. Our children are being drawn in and shaped by what they see on TV today. We as parents have to be careful what we allow our children to be exposed to, so what they will be upset at our restrictions, who’s the parent? Now those of us that have preteens, teens, and young adults still living with them, better late than never. It will just be a more challenging task doing so but you inform them anyway. We are talking about the souls of your own flesh and blood. Now the older generation, let us pray, it’s hard to teach an old dog new tricks. {Just a saying not calling anyone a dog personally, lol} but some of us need to learn a thing or two ourselves. You are never too old to learn new truths, it is what it is. We should not find ourselves holding on to anything that hinders our walk with the Lord or would cause us to participate in any ungodly behavior in any shape, form, or fashion. Please let us be more careful not to be beguiled by the devil. Pray, watch, listen, learn, and GROW!

The Destruction of Denial

Are you living in Denial or Truth?

God says we are not held accountable for the things that we don’t know but when we come into the knowledge of truth and willfully continue to walk the opposite way then there remains no more sacrifice for our sin. Much in these last days is being exposed right before our eyes. Once a lie has been revealed it’s up to us to choose to separate ourselves from these untruths or call it something else so we can continue to stay where we are with it. Don’t live a life of denial; it’s the road that leads to ultimate destruction.

As I said earlier, we all have choices, and those choices determine outcome. Are we choosing a life that is guided by wisdom or foolishness? The Wise make it their business to kill their flesh and cleave to what is right. The foolish reject correction. SATAN is a killer, a thief, and a destroyer. I can’t re-emphasize enough that he is the master of deception. He will make those things look good which are not. He is an illusionist. He will dress up a lie to make it appealing and innocent. This is why we must examine each situation and measure it with the word of God. Remember things are not always what they seem. In most cases when it seems too good to be true, it is. Test it; if it’s not matching the word of God then something is wrong with it, take heed. Don’t be deceived!

We are all emotionally creatures. If not careful our emotions can be our biggest tool of self-destruction. Never be too quick in your goal accomplishing without first seeking council and direction from the one who is all knowing. When we are trying to be all that we can business wise we usually seek the head person in charge because they are the wiser in knowledge from experience. We always seek to stick closer to the wiser ones because we want to learn from them so we can ultimately be all we can be, right? Last I checked God remained at being the wisest in the universe. He was here before it all, and oversaw all that came into existence. You can’t get any more top notch or wiser then the person at the top and he was before all things. Nothing precedes the number 1 but a zero and God is the beginning. So if you’re looking to train up under the best, the top man in charge, then look no further, God is the one and only. Repeat, there is none the wiser.

Why purposely enroll in the school of hard knocks that only offers lies and deception with a final destination of DESTRUCTION. When we choose a life of deception, every day we live is a lie. Satan is the Father of lies! You can’t trust a liar because in him there is no trust to be found!

God offers open enrollment in his school of Truth, but we have to want it. It’s our choice. It takes work, we will have to study. Changes will have to take place. Yes, we will suffer loss, but count it all joy because to loose is to gain, especially if what we are losing is a hindrance to our growth in truth. There will be persecution because darkness can’t stand light but let us not be overly concern with that because our goal is accomplishing the best for ourselves and our family. We cannot be achievers of the best if we settle for anything less than God’s way of doing things. I am not saying we are going to get it all right at once. We have to put what we gain in knowledge in daily practice which will keep us on the path of righteousness for God’s name sake.

The outcome of a life of truth is Victory. The outcome of a life of deception is Destruction. Which will you choose? Don’t make excuses and try to justify your wrongs, seek God’s help in transforming those wrongs into rights. It’s not too late to make a U turn; God is waiting with outstretched arms, forgiveness, and a brand new way of life for you. He provides truth, abundance, security, and so much more than you could ever imagine, make Him your choice!

There is Forgiveness

To err is human. We have all made wrong choices in our lives one time or another, don't be ashamed. God already knows what you've done and awaits your repentance so he can restore you. Just as God offered Israel forgiveness and fruitfulness, even so today will he do the same for the truly repentant.

Have you made wrong choices and or followed the wrong path? If so, you can come back to God like the prodigal son and restore fellowship with him. If you have never believed, seek the Lord while he may still be found. He desires to deliver you, commune with you, and be your help and strength in times of trouble, but before this can be received we have to give it all to him, confess that we have been doers of wrong, and had chosen our own way to live.

We have not because we ask not. Ask God for his forgiveness and his help in seeking to do right and living according to his will. Don't worry about the how, he will help you with all that but first you have to put your life in his hands and have total reliance on him and not yourself or what man can do for you.

Hell is just as real as Heaven. Eternal Damnation is just as real as Eternal life. Do you want to continue to live or do you want to suffer after death and ultimately cease to exist? Repent and be reconnected to God now while there is still a chance. There is no second chances after Physical death.

Let God love you, it's his desire. This world offers nothing but empty promises, confusion, uncertainties, false hope, temporary pleasures, etc. Why not experience a relationship with one of faithfulness and live a life certain of your eternal destiny when this life is over. There is a better life beyond this world. God has a better place prepared for us and he will be returning soon to take us there if our passing doesn't preced his second coming. For upon his return the dead in Christ shall rise first and those who remain alive at his coming will be caught up in the air to be with him as well and so shall we be with him forever. In order for us to spend eternity with God we have to make a choice today to believe what God has said to be truth and follow his way. There will be loss here but to lose now is to gain later with God.

There is nothing in this world worth losing your soul over. For what will it profit you other than a final death. I'ts not to late to chose the right path, the path that leads to Jehovah God through his Son, Jesus. The Bible says he is the way, the truth, and the life and the only way to the Father in Heaven. Find you a church that teaches the word of God in entirety. Get yourself a Holy Bible if you don't have one already. If you have one, I encourage you to read it from beginning to end. In your quest in doing so there are some key scriptures I will give you for you to know how you can have a relationship with our Heavenly Father, the one who created you.

Being Effective for God

It's not only our sin nature that makes us ineffective for God, confusion in regards to what God wants for us does. The enemy tries to confuse and deceive us. Avoid satan's deceptions by studying the word. The more informed we are about what God is saying to us, we will be less likely to fall for the lies and tricks of the enemy.

Jesus can give you a new start!

No matter what your situation or circumstance there is deliverance in Christ. Jesus can wash away your sins and give you a new beginning. The devil is seeking to bring under bondage as many as he can because he knows he has but a short time before the return of Christ. He is gathering souls for destruction and he wants yours. If you are struggling with sin and you feel a tug in your heart, a small voice that is saying what you are doing is not right, don’t ignore it, God is trying to reach you. He loves you and doesn’t want you to go to HELL. He knows about the struggles of this life and how we all fall short . But what he also wants you to know is that you don’t have to be in bondage, you don’t have to chase the wrong way to find the love and acceptance you having been longing for because he loves you, flaws and all. He wants you to know he can fix those broken areas in your life by guiding you on the right path.... So you made a detour and have followed the wrong way, a way which is not ordained by him, all hope is not lost, there is forgiveness at the foot of the cross. All you have to do is ask for it. REPENT, BE FORGIVEN and be set free to travel the road of change.

Don’t be ashamed, no one is perfect, we all have done something wrong one time or another. Don’t let sin hold you captive. Confess it before God, be forgiven, let it GO, and sin no more. I am not saying that likely there will not be another time ever in your life when you will fall short because that would be a lie, but when it does, know that God will be there to forgive you upon repentance. Keep in mind there is a difference between falling and the practice of SIN, please do not misunderstand. Struggle and willingness to sin because of a self chosen lifestyle is two different issues here. You have to want to be set free, then after praying and asking God for this freedom, do your part in resisting temptation and praying daily for the strength to do so. There will have to be changes made in your life, you will lose some friends and perhaps family in the process because you will have to clean house. You will not be able to continue to associate with things of old until you gain enough resistance to go back and try to help set free another who may be struggling as you were.

Each day you will have to walk by faith and not by sight. Don’t ever worry about who loves you here on earth just as long as God loves you, you will be fine. We don’t need others to make us feel important because we already are important to God. This is why some struggle and have no peace with the way they are living because God is knocking at the door of their hearts, trying to get them to let him in so he can begin their transformation. He desires a total relationship with them. You have already taken the first step if you are trying to seek help. Keep taking steps toward change, God is near, help is available. No need to fear, God is not a man that he should lie, he will do as he says he will.

The ENEMY is the one who is the liar, and the fooler of men. Because many people live by sight and not by faith is why many are fooled today and on the path to complete destruction. It may look like others are living the good life while living in their present sinful state, but sooner or later they will have to face God and answer for choices made while here on earth. The Great White throne Judgment (Revelation 20:11-15) is no joke and every person found unforgiven and unwashed in the blood of the lamb will have to stand present before God to be sentenced to their final destination.

Those who have been saved by God’s grace have had their names written in the Lambs book of life so they will not be present during this time of God’s judgment, only those whose names are not. Those who have placed their faith in Christ Jesus alone for forgiveness of their sin, salvation, and have repented, been washed in the blood of the Lamb (the blood that Christ shed at the cross when he was crucified in our place for the payment of sin, ergo satisfying the requirement of God….Romans 3:24 & Isaiah 53:5-11) and have been reconnected in a relationship with God will live Eternal with him. There is no second chance for reconnection and Life Eternal with God apart from repentance and the forgiveness of Christ. If you perish in an unforgiven state your connection to God remained broken. PLEASE DON’T BE FOOLED, BELIEVE NOT THE LIES OF MAN, ONLY BELIEVE WHAT GOD SAYS!

If you seek deliverance, forgiveness, salvation; a relationship with God, just say a little prayer and ask….

He loves you.
