The Fear of the LORD is to Hate Evil: Pride, and Arrogancy #shorts [video]

WHEN there’s a crisis, Christ is at hand to pour out His love and mercy. – “grace did much more abound” (Romans 5:20). Where there’s true repentance and faith, there will always be divine grace abounding! The darker the day, the crisis, the season, the brighter Christ’s light shines!

When the light of divine truth fills our own lives, it will be resident to be shone unto others.

Each of us has darkness in our hearts until it is vanquished by the light – the light of divine truth flooding our hearts daily as we turn on the flood light of God’s Word, shining it into hearts as we pour over His words!

“Let Your Light So Shine.” Matthew 5:16

GOD didn’t send us to marvel at all the increasing darkness of this world. No, in fact, He warned us it would be this way before His return, and yet, commanded that we “Preach the gospel to every creature” as we eagerly await His soon return (Mark 16:15-20). Why curse the darkness when we can obey Jesus by shining His light into the midst of it?

TELLING THE TRUTH THAT OFFENDS AND UPENDS HYPOCRITES IS PURE CHRISTLIKENESS! (Matthew 21; 23; John 2, 8, etc.) IN FACT, YOU KNOW THE LIGHT OF TRUTH HIT A DARKENED HEART WHEN THEY ATTACK YOU!!! REJOICE! Matt 5:10-12

“Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness’ sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. 12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.” Matthew 5:10-12

“There is a glow and a spiritual fragrance about the life of a person who is Spirit filled that is unlike anything found in natural man. The beauty of divine holiness ought to be radiated from all Christians. It is always seen in the lives of those who are truly controlled by the Spirit.” G. Christian Weiss, Insights into Bible Times and Customs

YOU are called to expose darkness! Obey Jesus now! (Ephesian 5:11) DID GOD ever tell you to have mercy on Satan or go easy on him? NO! And He never will! Shine the light of Satan’s human agents! (Ephesians 5:11) Turn the light lose on the prince of darkness and watch him run like a roach!

ANYthing and ANYone being used of Satan to deceive this generation is fair game for the body of Christ to expose – in ANY realm of society! Turn on the light saints – by preaching the light of holy truth! Unleash the power of the convicting Law and saving Gospel of Christ! “Preach the Word” and “rejoice” when you are persecuted for it! (Matthew 5:10-12; 2 Timothy 4:2)

YOU will never discern and overcome the prince of darkness as long as you remain in darkness! (John 3:19-21; Ephesians 5:7-12)

May God vanquish all darkness in our own hearts, filling, flooding us with His holy light.

“Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!” John 1:47

“HAVING NO PART DARK”

“If thy whole body therefore be full of light, HAVING NO PART DARK, the whole shall be full of light, as when the bright shining of a candle doth give thee light.” Luke 11:36

WHERE EVER you see Satan’s agents, expose them!

“And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove (expose, shine the light on) them. 12 For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret. 13 But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light. 14 Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.” Ephesians 5:11

WHENEVER you shine the light on the devil and his deeds of darkness and dark human agents, it’s a divine mission of mercy to help those who choose to have eyes to see what’s really going on! It’s time to turn on the flood lights!

It’s to Satan’s advantage that his human agents are kept hidden. What will you do about that? (Genesis 3:1; 2 Corinthians 2:11; 1 Peter 5:8, etc.)

You are here in part to expose the works of darkness in order to help those trapped in it to be delivered! Ephesians 5:11

Satan’s agents are simply those doing his work-stealing, killing, destroying! John 10:10

ANY “light” that is not Jesus Christ according to the record of Holy Scripture, is a false light being perpetrated by the agents of Satan (John 8:12). These are the most subtle, insidious sheep’s clothing clad wolves in our midst – as Jesus specifically warns us (Matthew 7:15). JESUS CHRIST IS THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD AND THERE IS NO OTHER LIGHT, LORD, OR SAVIOR (John 8:12).

“For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. 14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. 15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.” 2 Corinthians 11:13-15

Light it up!

—– SO, is God more glorified when His children (or those claiming to be) protest paganism OR when they use this time of the year when there are many gatherings, to shine the light of Christ’s Gospel into the hearts of fallen men? … In the divine economy, is it holy to 1) protest Christmas, or, 2) to be the “ambassador” all new creatures in Christ are to be? (2 Corinthians 5:17-20)

Are you baptized with the Holy Ghost? (Acts 1:8) If not, you are not YET equipped by God to do His work. The LORD desires to baptize with his holy Spirit. HOLY GHOST BAPTISM

Is God proud of us when we protest Christmas? OR, is He angry with us when we are not using this as another occasion to shine His light into the darkness?

GOD alone pulls back the veil that blinds when the individual turns his heart to the LORD in repentance – 2 Corinthians 3:14-18.

So you see that most of Christmas is pagan? That doesn’t make you smart because such is obvious. In fact, all the world is in wickedness and paganism – 24/7/365 – not just in December!

There is no hint of justifying or condoning or partaking of sin. No, darkness is to be exposed – God’s way! The way of Heaven’s Chief Ambassador – the very Captain of our salvation! (Hebrews 2:10) …. Oh and actually, perhaps the worst sin is when God’s own people refuse to obey Him and get caught in the trap of simply protesting everything…. and do nothing to bear fruit by getting sinners saved. That’s what we call the Great Commission.

Could there be in us an evil sense of self-righteousness when we condemn others, vainly believing that makes us righteous or holy?

Did Jesus come to the earth to condemn and protest sinners OR did He come to save them?

“For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.” John 3:17

Jesus saves. That’s exactly what He came to do. That’s exactly why He saved and sent us.

“As my Father hath sent me, even so send I you.” John 20:21

Did Christ come and curse the darkness? Or, did He come as “the light of the world” to shine His holy light into the darkened hearts of men and save them into His eternal family?

Is the Son of God surprised at a world of sinners He personally came and died for? Did Jesus protest paganism when He came?

If Jesus didn’t, could this not be a message to us? Could this not reveal that protesting can be counter-productive?

“For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.” Luke 19:10

Are we surprised that sinners sin or live in perpetual sin? Well that’s all sinners can do is sin … until a saint communicates Christ’s glorious, saving Gospel so they can repent and believe on Him.

Why would any mature disciple of Jesus be surprised at sin in this fallen world? Don’t we live in a world of sinners and are we not here to give them the only Solution?

Food for thought: Do you know of anyone who ever got saved due to the protesting of Christians?

Please pray and listen to our LORD’s message here below. What is He seeking to convey to our hearts in these words?

“Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men. 14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. 15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. 16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.” Matthew 5:13-16

Many today boast in what they DON’T do. Yet, we must ask ourselves, JUST WHAT am I DOING in obedience to the LORD I claim to serve?

“And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?” Luke 6:46

Did Jesus ever say anything like, “Go ye into all the world and protest sin and sinners”? No.

Instead, Christ came and died for us – sinners – and then sent us to reach our world of sinners.

It is astounding how many professing Christians have nothing more than protests in their hearts and lives. They judge and condemn others and yet do nothing to seek out and get saved those who are lost. This is very ugly in the eyes of God. Their “righteousness” is completely false and self-centered. If they were truly in Christ’s cross, a resurrecting power from on High would be impelling them to do what Jesus sent His people to do – “GO ye into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.” (Mark 16:15)

Do we call Jesus’ command the Great Commission or the Great Protest?

If Christ would have protested sinners and a sinful world, He would never have come to pay the price to make saints out of sinners. If He had protested He’d have done nothing to solve that dilemma. Do we produce any fruit by protesting? OR, are we fruitful when we obey Christ and “Go”? (Mark 16:15-20; John 4:35-38)

Have you led anyone to Jesus lately?

—- Protest or Preach? Did the earliest saints protest or preach Christ, His Word, and His Gospel? It’s sad to see that so many are identified by what they are against instead of being identified with Christ by preaching Christ and His glorious Gospel. Preaching, not Protesting!

Putting God First [podcast]

If God’s Word isn’t important to you, it’s because He isn’t important to you.

If anything comes before the LORD in your day, you are an idolater.

“Thou shalt have no other gods before me.” Exodus 20:3

GOD’s WORD cannot get into you if you aren’t into it.

“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15

Jesus commanded:

“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Matthew 6:33

As you seek God, putting Him first, you are not going to be able to prevent, to stop His blessings coming upon your life. 100%

Memorize this promise from your Savior, today.

“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” Matthew 6:33

What putting Christ first looks like:

Prayer.

“Early will I seek thee.” Psalms 63:1

Read. Study.

“Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food. Job 23:12

The Bible is far from just amazing information (Psalms 119:98-100; 2 Peter 1:3-4, etc.). More important than vital information coming from our Maker, God’s Word is your spiritual food and without it, without daily ingesting it, you will famish, fall, and ultimately perish.

“As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby:” 1 Peter 2:2

Read that again: The only way to “grow” is to “desire” and to devour the Word of your great God and King Jesus. He made you to know Him (John 17:3).

The only way to keep, to guard your heart before the LORD, is to keep it full of God’s Word.

“Keep (guard, till the soil of) thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.” Proverbs 4:23

In fact, like Job, we must make the spiritual food of God’s Word more important than the food that fuels and keeps healthy our physical body.

“Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.” Job 23:12

“He taught me also, and said unto me, Let thine heart RETAIN my words: keep my commandments, and live.” Proverbs 4:4

“Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.
2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.
3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.” Psalms 1

Find. Eat. Rejoice.

“Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O Lord God of hosts.” Jeremiah 15:16

YOUR PRAYER: Father please unite my heart to fear Thy name. Forgive my sins of spiritual adultery, of self-idolatry. Here and now I renounce my own ownership on my life. It’s Your life LORD. Reign on the throne of this heart and cut away, circumcise any and everything of iniquity in my heart and life. You must increase but I must decrease, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Nourished Up and Enduring to the End [podcast]

Recently a dear brother in Christ related this testimony to me of our LORD’s work in his life: “I had a ‘back to Jesus’ moment after the election. As I was horribly disappointed in our country and the dividing of even my own friends, I was praying: ‘I’ve lost faith in my country, I’ve lost faith in my friends…’ then it hit me… I had put my faith in the wrong things. It’s so easy to depend on others. But now I am trusting only in my Lord and Savior.” “For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose […]

Victory Over “Evil Concupiscence” and Every Sexual Sin [podcast]

“Flee fornication”

“Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid. 16 What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh. 17 But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit. 18 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body. 19 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? 20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.” 1 Corinthians 6:15-20

“Concupiscence” appears 3 times in God’s Word and speaking of having a secret desire for that which is forbidden, namely in sexual lust.

“But sin, taking occasion by the commandment, wrought in me all manner of concupiscence. For without the law sin was dead.” Romans 7:8

“Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:” Colossians 3:5

“Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not God:” 1 Thessalonians 4:5

Revelation 19:7-9

“Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready. 8 And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints. 9 And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.”

Colossians 3:1-6

“If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. 2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. 3 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. 4 When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory. 5 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry: 6 For which things’ sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:”

Memorize Colossians 3:3

“Submerge yourself deeper and deeper into Jesus until you sink out of sight.”!! Unknown

1 Thessalonians 4:1-8

“Furthermore then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort you by the Lord Jesus, that as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk and to please God, so ye would abound more and more. 2 For ye know what commandments we gave you by the Lord Jesus. 3 For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication: 4 That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour; 5 Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not God: 6 That no man go beyond and defraud his brother in any matter: because that the Lord is the avenger of all such, as we also have forewarned you and testified. 7 For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness. 8 He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also given unto us his holy Spirit.”

“Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.” Proverbs 4:23

Read Psalms 51 and Romans 6 each morning.

PRAYER: Holy Father, please forgive my many sins. Please touch this vessel all the way to the core of who You made me to be. Do Your work in this life You gave. Please unite my heart to fear Thy name and purify this heart O LORD. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

The Simplicity of Real Fellowship [podcast]

Satan thinks he has Stolen the Fellowship of the Saints

“Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.” Revelation 12:12

Exhorting God’s People “Daily”

“But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.” Hebrews 3:13

“Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.” Colossians 3:16

“Feed my sheep”

“So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs. 16 He saith to him again the second time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my sheep. 17 He saith unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep.” John 21:15-17

Simplicity in Fellowship

“And they continued stedfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.” Acts 2:42

They “continued steadfastly in …

“the apostles doctrines”
“fellowship”
“breaking bread”
“prayers”

“Great podcast. Thank you. As I was listening I was thinking about all the many churches we have attended through the years. And the one thing missing was love for Jesus. Everything was robotic. Hands raised in singing but no hearts raised. All scripted. You follow the script then go home. No honesty about their lives! All fake. Nothing more than a religious gathering. The disciples of old turned the world upside down because of their love for their Savior! They were willing to die for Him and they did! All these fake Christians do is wear outward religious garb and somehow think Jesus doesn’t know – as in Matthew 23. How refreshing it is to be around people who love the Lord with all their heart, soul, and mind! (Mat 22:37). Even if it is mostly online and as they live their daily lives. At least it is all about Jesus and not self! And I want to be with people who are Christ-centered not self-centered!” Karen Cochran

PRAYER: Heavenly Father, please do Your work in this vessel that is Yours. Help me to love You more and to live to serve others as You did LORD Jesus. Make me holy as You are holy. Let this life be crucified and raised up by You. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

No. Read John 15:1-16 and you will see that Jesus alone can choose, call, prepare, and ordain a […]

Yes “DUNG”!

Churchianity vs Christianity Many use the term “very involved in church” instead of deeply rooted and in love with Jesus Christ. See the difference? Beware.

Why have you chosen such to be that which you identity with? Most pastors make a big deal out of belonging to some organization, church, or group—because this puts them in charge—instead of Jesus. Beware. […]
