submission of the tongue to the power of the Holy Spirit.
Proverbs 18:21 Death and life in the power of the tongue
I set before you death and life, blessings sand curses.  Choose life.
healing is depenent on confession of our tongue and The importance of having it under subjection
What we speak we shall have
continue to speak/meditate on death, fear, etc  you  will see it come to pass
the devil listens to hear your confession
If he continually hears you agree with him he will follow through with evil plans.
If we speak life when the enemy is attacking, God will confirm His word with signs following.
2
We speak life and we have life,
Matt12  The enemy attributed Jesus' works to the devil.  He told them that If the devil was fighting against himself his plans would not stand.
Understand our life in the spirit.
Matthew 12:35  a good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good things.
The heart of the believer submitted to Jesus yields the fruit of the Spirit as manifestation of HIs presence and evidence of the spirit of God.
You are a new creature in Christ Jesus.  
The unbeliever's heart is evil having a heart of unbelief separated and on the way to destruction.
Out of evil treasure  every idol word shall be accounted for in the day of judgement.
Be slow to speak and quick to hear.
In the multitude of words there is sin. (Prov 10:19)
Matt 12:37  by our words we are justified or condemned.

pg 3
He has broken all generational curses, bad lifestyles and delivered us from the kingdom of darkness.
We speak in agreement with the word of God now.
Psalm 19:14  "Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of m mouth b acceptable in thy sight oh lord my strength and my redeemer.

Rom. 8:16  "the spirit bears witness with our spirit that we are the sons of God"

There is a connection between the heart and the tongue
Romans 10:9,10 this is how we got saved
mouth heart connection
confess and believe
we believe the word of God which is the Sword of the Spirit
​the word is quick and sharper than any two edged sword
what we fill our heart with healing, prosperity and all other areas depend on this principle in our hearts
decree a thing and it shall  be done unto you.
if God is for us, no weapon formed against us can prosper
cast down imaginations, bring every thought into captivity
speak life 
take authority over thoughts
cast down, put under our feet and a crush it
Jesus responded, it is written
death and life are in the power of the tongue.
pg 4
Believing with the heart and confessing with the mouth
Make sure our hearts are filled with the word of God
out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks
power of the Holy Spirit is the only power that can control the tongue
James 3  the tongue cannot be tamed by the wisdom and power of man
if our hearts can get filled our mouth will speak and God will perform it
He watches over his word to fulfill it.

Pentecost Sunday-The Importance of the HOly Spirit

6/5/2022

0 Comments

 
The Holy Spirit is the wisdom and Power of God.
First given in the upper room, It is now given to us to help us move in wisdom.

Examples of Holy Spirit baptism -  John 14:17  Acts 20:22   
He laid hands on them and commanded, "Receive Ye the holy Ghost"
Acts 2  Jesus had given his disciples command concerning going to Jerusalem.
Holy Spirit is the paraclete /comforter
Holy Spirit is God, the 3rd person of the trinity
It is important that we understand his deity with the Father.
John 16  -  to glorify the son who came the glorify the Father
The person of the Holy Spirit is not an "essence" or a "wind".
Just as the person he Father and the person or the Son.

Jesus commanded them to wait for the promise of the Father.  

​Jesus speaks of salvation in the gospels:
New Covenant was established for the Jews and for ALL who call upon His name.
Paul the apostle  attests to this in Romans 1:16 - I am not ashamed of the Gospel  For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
John records in John 3:16, - God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life.

It is expedient that I go away.
In John 16 He spoke of the importance and promise of the Holy Spirit for those who believe.
If I go not away, the comforter cannot come.
4But these things have I told you, that when the time shall come, ye may remember that I told you of them. And these things I said not unto you at the beginning, because I was with you. 5But now I go my way to him that sent me; and none of you asketh me, Whither goest thou? 6But because I have said these things unto you, sorrow hath filled your heart. 7Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you. 8And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: 9Of sin, because they believe not on me; 10Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more;

1Cor 6  know ye not that your body is the temple, therefore glorify God in your spirit and in your body.
2
50 days after the resurrection, Pentecost brought the coming of the Holy Spirit.

THE FIRST PASSOVER -
Blood was applied to the doorposts of the Hebrews
And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt.  God said, "If I see the blood  I will pass over you." Exodus 12:13
The people of Israel were delivered out of slavery by the blood of the lamb.
The law of Moses 50 days later the blood of the lamb delivered from death.
pillars of fire led them out!
They were translated into the kingdom.

We are exposed to false gods, false doctrines and we are engulfed in an atmosphere of sin, darkness and wickedness but we are no longer in sin and no longer in darkness.
3

Be transformed by the renewing of your mind.  Holy Spirit leads into all truth.
Be led and directed into the promises and victory he has prepared for us.
Know that  we are the head and not the tail, above only and not beneath.  
 
Because of the blood of Jesus, sin has no more dominion over us.  No matter how much will-power we have, there is on other power over the powers of darkness.  We cannot outsmart Satan.  Our hope is only in the Lord.
We have no might against the powers of darkness without the Spirit.
Victory is not in a mindset, but in the power of God.
"No man comes to the father except the Holy Spirit draw him."
The work of Holy Spirit is to reveal the righteousness of God.
Jesus has come and redeemed us by his sacrifice.
He became sin for us when he knew no sin.
He showed us how to walk in righteousness.
Not by works of righteousness but eh love of God is revealed by the indwelling presesnce of Holy Spirit.
He lets us know we are the sons of God.
He empowers us to live a life that glorifies God!
'The blood delivers us.  Holy Spirit Spirit directs and empowers us to live a life in power over the enemy. 
4"No man comes to the father except the Holy Spirit draw him.  There is "protection, provision and purpose in our lives if we will obey.
"Let my People Go!"
God gave Moses the law in tablets on Mt. Sinai.
Jesus rose from the dead and spent time with his disciples.
We can know his promises standards and blessings If we obey these laws and honor him.
There is a purpose and a plan that God  created for us.  Jeremiah 29:11  I have thoughts concerning you.
"I know the  thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. 12 Then shall ye call upon me....
Learn to operate in God's timing.
When God delivered the Israelites He gave them direction and provision

We must not only be  filled with the Spirit but continually led in a time of refreshing.
Numbers 9
5
In the New Testament the people of God were often  re-filled.
Hold fast to what we have heard
Stay filled -  keep the fire by praying in the Holy Ghost
Keep charged up in the Spirit.
Like an alternator.
Old testament Hebrews were led by a pillar of fire at night and by a cloud in daytime.
Be led by the Spirit and you always walk in the protection and provision of God.
The presence of  Holy Spirit is important in this hour.
Recognize Him, give heed to the word of God, hear what the spirit is saying to the church

There is confusion on all levels through many philosophies and  opinions that are promoted trough the airwaves.
There is misinformation, deception, falsehoods and spirits of deception
What is the Spirit of Truth Saying?  
Isaiah 30:21  
And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye" in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left.
Jesus prayed for his disciples before being delivered up - 
John 17:17 Sanctify them by thy word, thy word is truth
Study to show yourselves approved unto God.  rightly dividing the word of God.
6
The Holy Ghost wrote and is he only one equipped to bring understanding of the word.
The Work, the Personality and presence of God.
Recognize great things he s doing this hour
They didn't move when the cloud moved.
Numbers 9  Holy Spirit followed in the appearance of fire until the morning and a pillar of cloud by day until he moved.
 When the cloud moved they were to move,  When it stayed still they were to stay still. 
At such times they rested in their tents. They moved when the Spirit of God moved them.
or 
Listen for HIs voice,  there are times to abide -

An example can be found in Isaiah 26:20  "shut the door around you until the indignation be overpast."  Could it be that we are receiving this directive to abide while he does a work in us as individuals and as a body of Christ.  
He is checking our hearts and aligning us for this last day warfare.
7
We must Lay aside every weight and every sin that easily overtakes us.  Run the race with patience.  We we will be free because we have put in the time of preparation for the time to move.

​Life in the spirit is one being filled, led and walking in the power of God.
1Cor. 2 
speaks of the wisdom of man verses the wisdom of God.
​The world is trying to overpower God's wisdom with technology and doctrines of men.
These ways lead to death.  Prov. 14:12 There is a way that seemeth right unto a man..."
​Choose God's Ways!  
Obey the wisdom of the Word of God.
1Cor 2   
find recording here
"What fellowship has light with darkness"
We know nothing but Jesus Christ.
One mediator.  No other name,  He is the way the truth and the life. The only way!
​Holy Ghost gives us power to boldly proclaim the name of Jesus out of sincerity.
Paul said, I determined not to know anything among you save Jesus Christ.  in demonstration of the spirit, not with enticing words of man's wisdom.

Holy Spirit gives po​wer and faith to stand in the power of God.
We must commit ourselves to the word of God and prayer.
Develop a greater hunger for "every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God."
(Matt. 4:4)
Stay in God's timing for his purposes like Paul did.  

Philippians 3:13-14 13 Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, 14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
Be faithful with the time you have.  Look forward to our glorious future.

There are challenges we haven't faced before but God is faithful.
No weapon can prosper against you.  Nothing can separate you from His love.
9
We must fulfill our love for HIm this day.  Tomorrow will take are of itself. 
9
We have a new covenant with deeper and greater promises.
John 14  Old Testament God moved upon men for temporary demostration.  Now he is not just upon us but in us.
"He dwells with you and shall be in you.
Obedience
John 14:15  Don't expect blessings if you are walking in disobedience.
Do what He gave you to do.
Do not defile the temple.  Don't use the body for sin.  Submit our bodies holy and acceptable.  


Let our bodies be instruments for God's glory.
It is no longer I but Christ.
If we love him let our bodies be instruments of His glory.

Today's culture teaches: that you should live by "your own truth" and  be your own God.  That whatever feels good, do it.
It teaches that there are no consequences to sin.
 
The Bible (the spirit of truth) teaches: "as it is appointed unto man once to die and after that the judgment. (Hebrews 9:27)
 (John 16:13) 
“Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.”
10
Many will try to enter in but be turned away.  They will say, we have prophesied and done many good works in your name, only to hear Him say Depart from me you worker of iniquity.  I never knew you. 
It is not by works of righteousness that we have done.  Only according to his spirit the spirit of Truth.
God gets ALL the glory.  All glory and all power are His.
John 16:14 stand established on the Rock!
The power of His indwelling Spirit give us peace.
He tells us when to move and when not to move.
The kingdom of God is not in meat and drink.
He gives us righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Ghost!
He helps us to understand and walk in the glory!

mothers, Unselfish servants

Unselfish servants
Mothers are expected to give of themselves without murmuring or complaining
they re expected to always be there
regardless of a child's actions, decisions, they are there to cry with them when others turn away.
There is a oneness because of the nine months of pregnancy that bonds the mother and child.
There is none closer than those connected to their moms. (a "spiritual" umbellical chord
A sacrificial, agape, unconditional not demanding love in return
Created by God with a special unique love, deeper than that of a father
Many mothers go unappreciated
Proverbs 31:10-  Who can find a virtuous woman...
10 Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.
11 The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil.
12 She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life.
13 She seeketh wool, and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands.
14 She is like the merchants' ships; she bringeth her food from afar.
15 She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth meat to her household, and a portion to her maidens.
16 She considereth a field, and buyeth it: with the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard.
17 She girdeth her loins with strength, and strengtheneth her arms.
18 She perceiveth that her merchandise is good: her candle goeth not out by night.
19 She layeth her hands to the spindle, and her hands hold the distaff.
20 She stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea, she reacheth forth her hands to the needy.
21 She is not afraid of the snow for her household: for all her household are clothed with scarlet.
22 She maketh herself coverings of tapestry; her clothing is silk and purple.
23 Her husband is known in the gates, when he sitteth among the elders of the land.
24 She maketh fine linen, and selleth it; and delivereth girdles unto the merchant.
25 Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come.
26 She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness.
27 She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness.
28 Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her.
29 Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all.
30 Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised.
31 Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates.
Verse 6 focuses especially on her wisdom and kindness
She can't have a true love for the seed planted into them.
Real love comes from a relationship with God!
The latest arguments concern "Then does life begin.  LIfe begins at conception.
Psalm 139  O lord, thou hast searched me, and known me. 2 Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off.
Jeremiah 1  before you were conceived I knew you
pg 2
Recognize that we must train up a child in the way he should go.
There is a plan and a purpose for every child.
stewardship, grace and wisdom for godly mothers
great blessing of motherhood
unselfish servant' hearth to bring a new life into the world
Her physical appearance changes, where there is sacrificial, emotional
travail and pain of childbirth to bring a new life into the world.
He provides the closest bond  after birth to nurture.
Challenges:
3 women who did not quit -
2 single moms - challenges with their children in crises
through death, divorce, widowhood
descriptions of great women by humanity
3
made by God
Debprah, Rahab, Ester, Ruth, Mary Magdalene, Mary he mother of Jesus
some not identified  by name but by locality (where they were from)
Women not recognized by name but by their faith, their trust in God.
Recognize the fact that God knows you, he recognizes your faith.
God's word is not limit​ed to power
whosoever
Resist fear of God compassion on those in need
fruitful, nurturing to children
1Kings 17  he widow-woman
Ahab and Jezebel ruled over the kingdom
Prophets of Baal, works of darkness, false gods and Baal worship
Elijah asked, "How long will you halt between two opinions?....

1 Kings 18:21. “And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if the LORD be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow h
Three and a half years of famine were pronounced upon them because of their worship of false gods.
Verse 8  God commanded a widow woman to sustain the prophet
She was already talking to God.
God chose this widow of all widows!
pg4
He tested her to see whether she would obey
She had to take a step of faith.

She had to make sure her son  was taken care of

Elijah assured her with what the Lord had said. "the cruse of oil shall not fail"...on1 Kings 17:14  For thus saith the LORD God of Israel, The barrel of meal shall not waste, neither shall the cruse of oil fail, until the day that the LORD sendeth rain upon the earth.  
Our trust  in God is paramount. He will take care of you!
She received blessing for her household and also received the same son raised from the dead later.  God made sure that she had provision in the midst of famine.

Jesus Christ is our great high priest!.  
It is important to understand who He is and what He has one for us in reference to being our high Priest.

John 20 after Jesus' resurrection, Mary Magdalene came to the tomb and had a special encounter, a lot of it not immediately apparent to the eye.  The conversation with Mary about how he died on the cross as lamb of God came as the slain lamb of God to lay down his life as sacrifice.  Before Jesus gave up the ghost, he said , "It is finished"

He was the final payment.  The old ways for forgiveness of sins was completed and the veil of the temple had been rent from top to bottom.  There was to be no more yearly entering in by the priests.  The final sacrifice was accomplished!

Isaiah 56  with his stripes we are healed
2Corinthians 5:21  For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.    The lamb of God on the cross, rose as the great Lion.
10:13 RECORDING  Mary did not recognize Jesus because his visage was marred more than any man.  No man had ever been punished and marred to that  extent.  
2
She recognized his voice when he called her name.  She went to touch him, but he told her that she could not touch him until later.
The earthly temple was set up in similar manner as the heavenly temple, the holy of holies and the mercy seat, etc.
God would accept blood sacrifices as a covering 
  sins of the people for the next year. 
Now Jesus took his own blood and presented it to his Father. 
"I must ascend to your father an my father.
Peace be unto you, as the father has sent me, so send I you.
He ascended 40 days later, after spending time with and teaching the disciples.

We are the body of Christ in the earth today.
We are priests that bridge the gap between God and man.  He spoke to God on behalf of the people and  to the people on behalf of God.
He is our bridge builder, our advocate, lawyer, intercessor.
  pg 3
Hebrews  fulfillment of the law and the new covenant,  He took on the seed of a woman.
He is holy, harmless, sinless with power over all that is in heaven and under the earth. 
Hebrews 7  the priesthood of Jesus great high pries, intercessor.
The Devil makes accusations against us

​Jesus is our advocate, declare what has already been performed
for the sinner and also for those who are saved.
​*find recording here
I tell you these things that you sin not has power over death and continues to be the high priest forever.  He is holy, undefiled, separate from sinners, higher than the heavens.
Phil. 2 He was made in the likeness of man and took uon him thd form of a servant.  Because of his obedience, he was exalted and given a name above all names. 

pg4
​His name is above every name.  
Ephesians 2  far above al principalities, not only in this world but that world to come
all principalities, all things to come
As High priest able to touch, deliver and set us free

Oversees the new covenant that he made with his own blood.
No covenant can be activated until the testator dies.
He died so the covenant in Him could be established,
He rose again to make sure that what he died for would be executed. 

He was harmless, sinless and faithful.

Hebrews 2:14  Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; 15 And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.
He took on the seed of Abraham, took on humanity and came to his own.
verse 17  it behooved him to be like his brethren, a merciful faithful high priest.  able to succor them who are tempted.
He was tempted as we are, yet without sin.
He knows what it feels like to be rejected, in sorrow, in pain.  He endured all that we endure, yet faithful.
pg 5
He is author and finisher of our faith .Consider him who endured the cross, despising the shame.  We are still alive, He showed by example that we can obey him.
He is merciful and faithful


God now speaks to us by His Son.
Hebrews 4 Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it. 2 For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.
He is greater than Moses and the law.  All plans and purposes are fulfilled in Him. He is the express image of God, the fulness of the Godhead bodily.  Now we have the Spirit  showing the glory of God.

Hebrews 4:14 “Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession.”
Come boldly to the throne of grace.  We have an invitation to come but we must 
first obtain mercy and then find grace to help

 verse 16 There is protocol to entering into the throne of grace
mercy of God is withholding from us what we rightly deserve
confess and forsake our sins we shall have mercy
not by works of righteousness.. but according to his mercy he saved us.
Do not ask for justice, but mercy.
​All  have sinned and come short of the glory of God.  He had to become sin for us.
​Don't come to him assuming all is well. We must repent of sins of commission as well as sins of commission.
pg 6
If we confess He will forgive and cleanse.
We deserve wrath and death but he has made payment for our sins
We start making our supplication once we know we have obtained mercy.
The righteous are as bold as a lion, We come in confidence knowing He will give grace.
His grace is sufficient.  He meets all our needs. He will execute mercy before judgement!
He is a God of mercy but also a God of judgement. 
Draw nigh to him with a sincere heart and after that the judgement.
Some think they will speak the word and declare the word without mercy first.

pg 7
Declare that it is only because of his mercy that we even live to see tomorrow,
We can's guarantee through self-righteous arrogance and sustain life.
It is appointed unto man once to die. and after that the judgement.
Be clear where you stand with God.here
He grants mercy to restore the saints.

Live Holy that we may have true covenant with one another,

Be steadfast, unmovable
He is faithful to his promise

power over death

4/17/2022

0 Comments

 

​The foundation of the Christian Faith is based on the resurrection.
I Cor 15  Last Sunday we celebrated the 7 days from Palm Sunday to Easter Sunday.
Salvation that was brought on the cross
Today we learn of the fulness of the salvation message and of eternal life forever with the Lord
Believers must have a foundational understanding of who Jesus is.

1) He is God

2) He conquered death

​3 His resurrection guaranteed our resurrection

4) He is  coming again

The bodily resurrection of Jesus is the foundation 
what it means to the future of all humanity
*If there be no resurrection our preaching is in vain
(1Cor 15)
   If the dead rise not then  Christ is not risen and there is no use preaching, Our desire to live according to the standards of righteousness would be in vain and we would be of all men most miserable. 

pg2
He is God manifest in the flesh.
1Tim 3:15 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness; He who was manifested in the flesh, Justified in the spirit, Seen of angels, Preached among the nations, Believed on in the world,

​Romans 1:3
 
He is made of the seed of David according to the flesh
Not by the seed of man/Joseph - born of a woman
We recognize His deity - 100%man and 100% God
He was declared to be the Son of God by the resurrection from the dead.


John 1:1 in the beginning
The word became flesh


page 3
IJohn 5;7  THERE ARE THREE THAT BEAR RECORD IN HEAVEN
Jesus said to God the Father, "Prepare me a body". He took on a body for the purpose of becoming the sacrificial lamb.
Phil. 2 He came  in the form of God - yet a servant,
He was the Son of God with power over death
"I lay down my body and take it up again."
****listen here again.
There were others who raised the dead before this.
***Elisha raised the Shulamite widow's son and Elijah raised the Shunamite's son.
Matthew 10  Jesus commands his disciples, "heal the sick, cleanse the leper, cast out devils, raise the dead."  Jesus raised the widow's con from the dead.
Jesus had power over death.
He came to destroy the works of the devil. 

Hebrews 2:14   Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil. 
Satan's chief weapon: fear of death.
Oh grave where is our sting, death where is your victory.

Lucifer was cast out of heaven.  Jesus came healing the sick, raising the dead.  He went down for three days and nights, suffering in Sheol Hades/Hell.
 Phil. 2  He took authority over death and rose with all power.
Because of His obedience the Father exalted him above every other name.

pg4
Jesus is God in the flesh.    He is the son of God with power over death.
He often says to us,  "Fear not."
Revelation 1`:17  "I am the first and the last"
God has not given us the spirit of fear.
***Again, He said, "let not your heart be troubled."

 John 14:1-4 :1Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
2In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
3And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
4And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.

He is coming again with all power.
IJohn 1:18  I am He that liveth  has the keys of Hell and death.

All other religions declare another way.  There is no other way!
You can find the remains of their Gods but Jesus left no remains!  Only an empty tomb.
He is no longer in the grave.
He said, "I am He that liveth and is alive forevermore."

He said, "All power is given to me.  Go ye therefore and teach what I have commanded you .
He who has the son of God has life.  You must be born again.
  • Matthew 28:19-20 KJV Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
pg 5
Because He is the son of God with power, we no longer fear death or judgment of Hell fire.

The 2 deaths:
Revelation 20
If you are born only once you die twice. 
Hebrews 9:27  And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment
except ye repent ye shall all likewise die.
Except you are born of the spirit.
​There is no other mediator, no other name by which man must be saved.

 We must have a stronger commitment to declare the foundational truths of gospel and boldly proclaim the truth.
His resurrection guarantees our resurrection.
Matthew 27:50  the great shaking  that happened at the resurrection.
the veil of the temple was rent in two and the yearly sacrifice could no longer  be done.  No longer the blood of animals sacrificed because there was no more separation of the holy place in the temple.

All mankind has direct access to the presence of God.
Now we can come boldly unto the throne of grace.
The old Testament has been fulfilled
Heb 8:6 But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also he is the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises. 
pg 6
God is available to hear our cry and respond to every need.
The patriarchs' bodies rose from the grave.  The saints who slept rose and walked through Jerusalem testifying of Jesus Christ.
**** find recording here


We won't experience separation from God.
Blessed are they who partake of the first resurrection.

We must be able to share with others the hope that we have.
Romans 10:9,10  that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
Only in the resurrection is there guarantee of life.
Romans 8 speaks of the hope in the resurrection of our glorified body prepared in heaven
Our corruptible body will take on incorruption
At the rapture we will be changed in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye.

page 7
​IThes 4:16 
“For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:”

Jesus is coming again!  He's coming back!

Let not your heart be troubled.
Romans 8:18 
  • Romans 8:18 KJV: For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.. 
Don't lose your focus.  Eye hath not seen the things God has prepared for us!

Hold fast!
The last thing Jesus said:
Go into all the world and preach the gospel.  
God is not a respecter of persons.  God loves mankind. 
 All power has been given to me and behold I give you power to be witnesses unto me.
Acts 1:9  And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight
The angels who stood by said, "This same Jesus shall come in like manner.
When He returns, will he find faith in the earth?
We remember the teaching of the 10 virgins in Matthew 25 . 
five faithful, wise virgins had trimmed lamps with oil when the call went forth, "behold the bridegroom cometh, Go ye out to meet Him."
5 foolish without oil in their lamps were turned away while the wise, prepared virgins were admitted to the wedding feast  the bridegroom.


As you see the day approaching. with the end times signs - wars and rumors of wars, threats of nuclear annihilation, rise of spiritism and demonic manifestations, and even the many scientific methods man uses to prove himself to be God.
Jesus says to you: Go, preach, teach and warn the people.
Tell them:  
Jesus is God manifest,
He has conquered death and hell,
He has risen
He has guaranteed our resurrection.
He Is Coming Again!!

Knowledge Without Understanding.
 
Introduction:
Be encouraged to know that Jesus wants your joy to be full.  Rejoice in the God of our salvation.  Rejoice because of the life that we have in Him.  He said I give you my joy that your joy may be full.  Confidence in his faithfulness gives you peace with all you have to deal with in this life!  God is faithful! He cannot lie!  His word is true and cannot pass away. Receive the incorruptible seed of the word of God.  We trust that your hearts are open and receptive to the word of God today.
 
 
2
(message begins here):
The spirit of the lord is putting strong emphases on the last days, especially this sign of the last ;  false Christs,  false religions
The main last day sign of end time is the Spirit of Deception

1Timothy 1 - false Christs, false gospel, another spirit, many spirits that are all inspired by the  Anti-Christ spirit.Paul  reminds us to be encouraged, to stand for the truth, to contend for the faith.
 
 
 
Don’t let down your guard.
3
Don’t let the deceitfulness of sin and works of the enemy, wiles of the devil and deceptions cause you to draw away from your steadfastness in Christ.  We focus on this and continue in that vein/stream.  
Get an understanding of what it really means to have a true revelation of Christ that brings a true relationship with Christ. 

  • Knowledge has greatly increased in this information age.  There are no limits, no limit to the amount of information available in these last days. 
Stand firm on the truth of God.
 
4
Satan is the prince of the power of the air
Influence through all type of medicines and  ideas of destruction.   But you must hear the spirit of the Lord.
 
If you continue in my word
John 8:31,32  Jesus said, “If you continue in my word. then are you my disciples indeed and the truth shall make you free.”
Hoy Spirit leads us into all truth.
 
Paul begins his letter to Timothy by really focusing  on doctrine - the standards of
God’s word.
 
5
Paul  Admonishes Timothy to contend for the faith and maintain the true doctrine of Christ.  To realize that there are many who are trying to pervert the truth of God’s word.
He admonishes Timothy re: the calling on him to maintain the true doctrine.

  • 1 Timothy 1:3-6  3As I besought thee to abide still at Ephesus, when I went into Macedonia, that thou mightest charge some that they teach no other doctrine, 4neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: so do.
 
6
Many who name the name and are involved in ministry, are yet lead astray.
All false doctrines, are from same source, infiltrating the body of Christ.
Information that is not of the spirit will not bring  change in a person’s heart, nature, character.
1Tim 1:5   Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned:
 
Information ministers  to the mind and the soulish man but not to the heart.
 
 
7
Hebrews 4:12   For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. The word is quick and powerful, piercing asunder
We have a mind to obey God and our motives are sincere, love is pure.
if we have a selfish mindset, self-esteem, demanding what we deserve it brings destruction.
God alone We must be sincere for God and.
 
8
People gain knowledge without understanding. 
They are more satisfied with an informed mind than a converted heart. 
The more they know the greater their sense of self-worth, but no change of heart.  We are becoming more satisfied with knowledge and nature rather than information about the manifestation of God’s presence.   
New Age religion focuses on self-esteem.
We pledge allegiance to all sorts of things:
the flag, rep resenting allegiance to citizenship of America, the  nation, America’s politics and the Constitution.
 
9
There is compromise and lack of focus on God’s purpose.
Many even in the body of Christ are polluting God’s word.  There is lack of focus on God’s eternal purpose.  They are more focused on the politics. (who’s  going to get appointed) and We have patriotic commitment to the constitution rather than commitment to God. It is more important whether you be conservative or liberal, democrat or republican.
We bring greater division even in the body of Christ.   
Why are people under such pressure and pressuring others?
 
10
Corruption and darkness had been prophesied where there is more division  
In these last days loyalty is based on our culture, and bloodline instead of the blood of Christ.
John 18:36: Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews
 
The falling away and darkness had been prophesied but God is always faithful to his people.
There is more division among those who name the name of Christ.
11
There is more cultural focus on natural bloodlines.
But we are a chosen generation, delivered out of darkness.  We are one in Christ with a  common  destination, a common destiny. Not dependant on the temporary  legacy of a nation.
This world is not our home, this is not the end.
We have a glorious future, a home in heaven not built by man’s hands, eternal in the heavens, we shall forever be with the Lord.
Thank God for rights and privileges for laws and peace but our focus must be on salvation of souls.  ….
12
 God’s desire is that all be saved.   There is an eternal plan and heavenly destination, but   If we don’t accept Christ as savior the alternative is to be lead into eternal damnation and separation from God.
It's all about the heart, about the souls,
 
The souls of man and our responsibility as representatives,  We represent the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords and will soon will be brought back home.
The world’s way – the cares of this life, deceitfulness of riches choke out the word
Many depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of man. 
 
13
Jesus says to love your neighbor as yourself, but our focus on everybody expressing themselves.
We want to speak and be seen.
Dominates time
 
New Age  teaching/focus:   “I Am worthy therefore I determine what is valuable to me”
 
Vain gangling: lot of words with no eternal value
 
The enemy has a lie for everything that is true
 
14
*God has not given us the spirit of fear
Paul taught many will want to be teachers
Take heed to what you hear
Guard your heart with all diligence
Be mindful of what you allow your ears to hear and your eyes to see
Make a covenant with your eyes that you will not look at what will lead your away from Christ.
We must contend for the faith and be on guard.
 God has a plan.
 
The devil has a plan, too.  turmoil, but God has not given us the spirit of fear,
15
Take heed to what you hear.  Guard your heart with all diligence, be mindful of what you allow your ears to hear, your eyes to see.  They bring information into your spirit make a covenant with your eyes.
Wherever God has a vision the devil has a plot.  God already told them what his plan was.,  The devil came with the lie.  The very heart of the soul of man before the fall of man.
Satan’s deception:  You will not surely die.
Age/ Dispensation of innocence followed by the Age of Conscience.  In the beginning Man was Covered in the Shekinah glory of God.   After the fall they were under the dispensation of Conscience
16
Now whatever gives me sense of value.  Whatever my conscience deems right.
new age teaches that there is no judgment.  even in the church, no teaching about hell and eternal damnation. Only about how you are deserving, entitled to receive joy and blessings.  Only because of His mercy and his grace, nothing to boast in of ourselves.  born in sin, shapen in iniquity.  No right to demand anything from God.  Cannot earn the blessing of the lord the love of God keeps us and helps us maintain a life in this natural world.
there is a great compromise that is happening.  People don’t want to think that they are accountable.  There are consequences to our actions.
17
Judge of the quick and the dead.  He is the judge.  We believers will stand before him at the judgement seat o Christ.  Unbelievers stand at the great white throne judgement.
those whose names are not written in the lamb’s book of life will be throne into hell.
every knee shall bow and every tongue confess. That Jesus Christ is Lord.
We shall give an account of ourselves
no other name, no other mediator but the man Christ Jesus.
“I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE” No man can come o the father but by me.
 
 
18
Paul told Timthy, “preach the word…the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine…”
I Tim 4:2  Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;
 
The first things and last things Paul said to Timothy. 
“Watch in all things, do the work of an evangelist.”
 
19
Information is on the increase
People are gaining knowledge but lacking understanding.
Knowledge puffs up, gives a sense of pride.
Knowing who I am, how much I’ve proven myself.
People are searching.
 
The sacrifice of the flesh to earn and be pleasing to God.
Information is head knowledge while Revelation is heart Rhema Word, revealed word.
Natural man receives not the things of God.
Revelation by the spirit of God
20
The Word spoken by Holy Men of God will bring forth fruit by the Holy spirit.
There will be a performance of what was promised
The Word brings forth a reality
Peter a man – saw Jesus in the flesh, walked with him.
Matt 16  Jesus asked his disciples, who do men say I am.
Today they say you are good leader, prophet, one of many messiahs
Peter said they say you are Elijah, a great prophet, etc.
like John the Baptist, exposing sin
commanding repentance
21
renegade, non-conformist, isolate from the world
like Elijah, raising the widow’s son
a miracle worker of signs and wonders
like Jeremiah, weak, meek, and lowly, always weeping
Jesus did weep over Israel, did work miracles, etc.
Jesus asked, “Who do You say that I am?”
Peter answered, “You are the Christ, the Son of God.”
He had revelation, heart knowledge.
 
Not just based on testimony of others, but on his own experience Walking with Jesus.
22
Peter had a desire to know Him. Get into the word yourself, read about Him in Matthew, Mark Luke, and John epistles.
Peter had Seen Jesus feed the multitudes.
 
Experienced it himself, “If you bid me come.”
read for yourself what Jesus did and said.
fed the multitudes
23
1 Corinthians 2:4-6
4 And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power:
5 That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.
6 Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to naught:
Paul says to us, “My preaching was not with enticing words of man’s wisdom, but with power and authority.”
 
Live the word, testify,. 
24
know him as a healer: Say, “By the stripes of Jesus I was healed”.
as a deliverer: was bound by drugs, he is a provider, when there didn’t seem to be a way, God is a faithful. a counselor.  When I didn’t know the way, He showed me the way out 
Cause others’ faith not to rest in man’s wisdom.
We are raising up a people with true manifestation of His love and His power.
 
9
Matt. 16:18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I
25
I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
(*Upon this rock I will build my church
see a fulfilment of his every promise
revelation and understanding by the spirit.
Powers of darkness have no power over you.)
 
Overcome by the blood of the lamb.
Walk in provision and grace.
We have keys to the kingdom and access to the throne of grace!
Knowledge of the true God.
We already declare his faithfulness.
We will see a fulfilment of his promises.
26
Understanding by His spirit
insight and revelation and understanding
We overcome him by the blood of the lamb and love not our lives until the death
We are walking in understanding and relationship with access into his presence at any time. We must share the gospel with others who are desiring to know Jesus.
 
Don’t get distracted.
Hebrews 10:23-25  23 Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)
24 And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works:
25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.
*…..more as the day approaches
He is coming soon! 
Rev, 22:12  Behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to render to each man according as his work is. 
 
Occupy until He comes.
Be ye steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord.
 
We will receive revelation, understanding by the spirit and find ourselves walking in victory over the wiles of the devil
The gates of hell shall have no power over you when you get understanding of Christ in YOU.  You will find yourselves always walking in victory with access into His presence.
 
information and knowledge is on the increase.  Men are gaining knowledge but lacking understanding.  Knowledge puffs up.  Degrees and accomplishments give a sense of self-worth.
Many don’t understand who Jesus is.   They think of him as  only a renegade, a non-conformist.  Isolated from the world.  Miracle man, like a Jeremiah the weeping prophet - rejected.

we overcome him by the blood of the lamb and love not our lives until the death
walking in understanding in relationship
access into his presence at any time
share with others who are desiring g to know
 
Don’t get distracted.
Hebrews 10:23-25  23 Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)
24 And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works:
25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.
*…..more as the day approaches
He is coming soon! 
Rev, 22:12  Behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to render to each man according as his work is. 
 
Occupy until He comes.
Be ye steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord,
 
 
We will receive revelation, understanding by the spirit and find ourselves walking in victory over the wiles of the devil
The gates of hell hall have no power over you when you get understanding of Christ tify our knowledge of Jesus.in YOU, YOU WILL find ourselves walking in VICTORY
ACCESS INTO HIS PRESENCE AT ANY TIME

Satan's Master Plan

3/20/2022

 Satan’s Master Plan  3/22/22
 
Jude tells us to “contend for the faith first delivered
We are not to be ignorant concerning Satan’s devices.
deceitful workers, false teachings, false Christs in the last days
Learn how we are to stand in these last days.
Lay a foundation – the new age world religion
exposing plots, deceptions
subtle but profound in the working
 
It is the spirit of the anti christ
 
I John 2:18  it is the last time  the man of sin will be revealed, spirit of AntiChrist doctrines
 
2
seeks to remove Christ and substitute another gospel!
 
1John 4:1  beloved. believe not every spirit
confusion, perplexity
the spirit of the Lord lets us know how we are to stand
 
Galatians – departing, substituting
begun in simplicity of salvation but drawn to another gospel!
intellect, scientific things of the world
 
the challenge to the saints to hold fast to the standard of the truth
 
 
3
Galatians 1:6  I marvel at this,  being deceived another gospel
 there are many new translations of the Bible now
2Timothy  preach the word…be instant in season and out of season…they will not endure sound doctrine
 
people are fulfilling fleshly desires
*Galatians 1:7  not another, some will  if any man pfreach any other gospel, let him be accursed
have understanding by the Holy Spirit and the written word
*matt 16  who do men say that I the son of man am?
flesh and blood did not reveal this to you
Many depend on man’s wisdom to give understanding of who Jesus is!
but if any man have not the spirit of God
 
and natural man receives not…except a man be born again he cannot see the kingdom of God…
eye hath not seen, ear hat not heard
The way of the Lord is simple.
“Learn of me.”  Knowledge  of God is not complicated if you have a hunger for the right things.
If we receive another spirit, another Jesus, another gospel
false apostles, no marvel
an angel of light, posing as a minister of righteousness;
 
the devil deceived Eve with a lie – you shall be your own God
but you decide.  focus on yourself
you are God’s creation, power against wonders later
than relationship with the Lord
Paul identified false apostles, etc.
 
no relationship, foundation of the doctrines of Christ
Deception in this last day
love of many waxes cold
A survival mindset
wars and rumors of wars, pandemics, sickness and disease
Global, not nationwide.  Affecting all nations
Culture and social status is meaningless
 
Men are looking for a global solution
They are getting ready for the God of this world
Their mindset:
facilitating a global religion, economic system
Master plan of the enemy in order of process a long time.
Increase of knowledge:
no limit to information
computers in our pockets
 
We have access to information - artificial intelligence, technological advances
 
The number of man:
The belief that man is the answer eliminates focus 
Men can solve this problem without God,
The bible is not legitimate
 drawn to other sources
But the Bible is God-breathed
There is a famine for the Word
people eating
filled with ungodly ways outside of the truth
 
4
We have been in the last days for the least 2,000 years
The signs are coming to fruition now.
The New Age Movement teaches that there are many paths to God
They teach a universal open-armed religion
 in which only those who believe in a personal god are excluded
 
Jesus said, I am the way
There is no other name under heaven by which “man must be saved
most doctrine is dogmatic
not religion
glorification of man,  teaching that man is supreme and that man can evolve into godship
holding to Satan’s promise, “you shall be as a God”
 
Mormonism, secular humanistic teachings, professionals – a high religion more attuned to people of intellect
man is an evolving God and the greatest love of all is “self-love”
 
Nothing New under the sun – the same spirit of lust, lasciviousness’, pleasing self
New Age
Jesus’ sacrifice is meaningless
like in the 1960s and 70’s  peace and love is the mantra
Escape from authority and standards
No sin and evil, no judgement
 
5
A false premise
New Age teaches that man is inherently good.
Galatians says it is another Christ, a misrepresentation of who God is.
It teaches that God is an essence, an energy force and that there is no way to have a personal relationship with Him
They teach that we are all God and He is an energy
But we know that God is not part of His creation!  He will burn it up in the end.
A new heaven and a new earth. (Rev, 21)
mother Earth, worshipping stars, spiritism, zodiac, horoscopes, etc.
Astrology the interpretation of assigned influence the stars have on human character  
guided by stars, planetary movements, etc.
 
 Babylonians sought wisdom through these practices
Beware of these mindsets, drawing our young people  these are prevalent and are on the increase, keeping them away from the truth
 
New Age Re: Christ:
Buddha, etc. are Christ.
Messengers are sent to help us develop into Christ -likeness
 
6
New Agers believe there is one to come that will usher in the New Age.
Angels are called spirit guides, but they are demons except a man repent, confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus
New Agers believe “born again” means to let go and allow your “inner guide/inner self” to lead you.
But God hates pride because he says “humble yourself under the hand of God
 
Hinduism – Khundalini – even in the charismatic church
serpent power – they believe this gives instant rebirth by a flash of light
rebirth conveys Christ consciousness’
 
They believe the second coming when new age believers receive Christ consciousness and that their messiah come and rule in the earth. 
 
Hell and Judgement:
“How can he send his children to hell?”
Heb 9:27 
God does not send people to hell, he gives them a choice. 
7
The Agenda has been publicly written
Harlot Babylon in Revelation 17
contend for the faith
There will be a great falling away before the revealing of the anti christ.
 
It is a subtle agenda
The Plan   – 13 points in the New Age Mission statement. (from Secrets of the New Age ,  Texe Marrs  1987 )   

1)  establish one religion for population control, et.  one world social order
2)  revival of idolatrous ancient Babylon
same sex marriage, cultism, psychics will be the norm, necromancy, etc.
*God left strong warning in Deuteronomy 18  as the Hebrews were coming out of Egypt.  They were not to involve themselves in these activities. (normalization of these cult practices)
3)  Anti-Christ come in the flesh to lead the new world order
4) Spiritism – ie:avatars - they believe they help man inaugurate new age and pave the way for new age man-God to unite man as The Great World Teacher
pg.8
5) world peace, love and unity are rallying cries – another popular them, the greatest love is to love yourself
6)  taught in every sphere of society around the globe.  education, government, etc.
7) spread the apostacy that Jesus is not God or Christ
8) all are to become parts of the new Age Religion - ecumenical movement – co-exist as equal
9) Christian principles to be discredited
10) children spiritually seduced for the New Age dogma.  The evolution theory equal or above the truth of God’s word,  gender issues part of the equation
11) flattery to entice the worldaccomplishments of man exalted – man has the answers to problems
12) science and religion become one, man’s accomplishments, glorifies man as God– heroes, superheroes!  superhuman abilities
They see man as divine God  (but God says He should get all the glory)
13) Christians who resist the plan should be dealt with, maybe exterminated and the world purified
 
Persecution is coming!  let not your heart be troubled.  While we are here, stand!  Martyrdom:  many are willingly laying down their lives now! Paul said he fought a good fight and kept the faith.
 
2 Timothy 4:7-8  7 I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: 8 Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.
 
Be encouraged, aware of subtle, enticing practices that draw men away and dishonor God.
Deception is strong bait disguised as truth.
Continue in the faith.
Jesus has thoughts of peace.
Our hope is built on nothing less than Jesus’ blood and righteousness.
Be steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of God.
We are privileged/commanded to go into all the world with the gospel.
The message for the world: Salvation is found in none other than Jesus Christ.
 
Bow to Jesus now while you have a choice.
Every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus is Lord.
Hold fast, study to show yourself approved unto God!
