THIS JUST IN FROM ARELY VIA A TEXT MESSAGE LASTING EVENING:
“Thank you for returning us to God 🙏🏻 we are going through a somewhat complicated situation but meeting you today made us return to GOD THE FATHER. THANK YOU REALLY Luke 15” Arely
Last night, by the hand of God, I met Arely, her son, and another dear woman. After Arely received the ministry of the Word via the spoken Word in Spanish and a Jesus tract she also received a PDF copy of the books Authentic and Moments in Spanish via text. Then the other dear woman, after receiving a JESUS tract opened it and began reading it aloud as we all sat together! So that Arely, her 11 year old son, and all of us heard God’s Word read to us. She just read the Scriptures aloud. That young boy was moved and the seed of our LORD’s Word was planted in his heart and he received his own copy of the JESUS tract. (11 years old is when this disciple first heard the Gospel from an older boy) Oh and the reason Arely spoke of Luke 15 was that she was exhorted to go read it and see how beautiful is the restorative love of God! Clearly this was her way to sharing that she went home and sought the LORD, reading Luke 15. | STORE
No one is in a rush, no one here lives in a rush. Refreshing. People matter to everyone here in Mexico.
The latest: Check out the stories of lives being reached for Jesus in beautiful Mexico. Jesus died and rose again for these beloved people and nearly without exception, they desire to hear the Word of God. Oh how beautiful is humility!
When persecution hit Jerusalem, the saints of Christ were scatters. “Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where preaching the word.” (Acts 8:4)
Together we are going out into the world to reach many with the soul saving Gospel of Jesus.
“How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? 15 And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!” Romans 10:14-15
Pablo, while at work, began to pour out his heart to me. He kept coming back and talking. What a dear man he is. When he found out I was from the USA, he broke down crying. There is deep grief in his life. He has spent ample time in the USA and so is bi-lingual. Please lift this man in prayer. He received a Jesus tract and had God’s Word ministered to him. He asked to exchange numbers and we did and he was sent the pdf versions of Authentic and Moments books in Spanish. Karen Cochran so very true! yes before he began pouring out his heart, all I had said to him to that point was “God bless you” in Spanish. Pablo’s heart was hurting and he was so desiring to have someone to talk to. He was instructed, encouraged to go home and read the Jesus tract and repent and put his faith in Christ and shown the prayer on the back. Thank you praying for him.
In the ministry and the lives of Jesus and His holy apostles, we see them going from town to town, preaching the Word. See the 4 Gospels and Acts, etc. It’s not that they didn’t go back to their previous locations to minister to the saints and yet, the fact remains that they were on the move – reaching “all the world” (Mark 16:15).
The people of Mexico are tech savvy and so inviting them to download the Reina Valera Bible (KJB equivalent) and passing, sending them the ministry the books we currently have in Spanish (Moments and Authentic), and Jesus tract is a simple transaction. They even ask for these things. And this makes things simple for them to share with others which they are expressly invited to do.
Presently we are having the What’s Next book translated into Spanish. This is vital, especially for all the new believers as it cover the basics, what’s most important for the saved, in growing in the grace of Christ, building a strong foundation, identifying with Christ (Colossians 2:6-10; 2 Peter 3:18, etc.).
Knowing the power of our God in the name of Jesus I told beloved Joe that many Christians in America are going to be lifting him in prayer….. he rejoiced. Please do! Joe is from Atlanta and has been living here with his lovely wife and children. He was completely receptive to the Gospel of our LORD Jesus and said his mother has been lifting him in prayer and ministering to him for years. No words could describe the ministry time that transpired with this man. He gladly received a JESUS tract, was shown the website address on the back and we exchanged numbers. The devil is on the run! Jesus is KING. Please pray for this beloved man for whom Jesus died and rose again. -And know that YOU, yes you, as a saved, born again saint, are doing the most vital part of this whole story …. as far as men go! We are seeing God answer prayers immediately. Sorry saints but I can’t even keep up and for every person featured there are several more…. Jesus is coming. Jesus and Joe – let’s go saints!
Meeting so many from America and all over the world here. Ran out of tracts and breath tonight ministering!!!!
Boom Jesus Reigns forevermore! Rev 1:8 anyone! | Mission Mexico
Beloved Johan was ministered to extensively this week. For now he is sleeping on a bench it seems. The Gospel was preached to him, he was given a Spanish Reina Valera Bible, and a Jesus tract in Spanish. He also received a hot meal. To say this man was a delight to help would be an understatement. As you will see here he opened that Bible and began reading it aloud, all of his own accord. Video below.
Oh and the special people at the restaurant where Johan was, were very special, received the Jesus tract also, and were glad to be able to feed Johan, all because you gave. After leaving Johan it was yet another rapid fire type barrage of quality ministry to many, one person after the next. Only God!
“Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, 21 Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.” Ephesians 3:20-21
That was the last Spanish Bible I had. It’s Johan’s now!
If anyone wishes to help the ministry buy more of these and full Bibles, please feel free. We’re running low on the Jesus tracts here also and always in need of cash to feed and help the poor. Oh and the What’s Next book, to lay a sound biblical foundation in the lives of those being saved, is as we speak being translated into Spanish. See it here on the Store page.
The Gospel is being preached outright – nothing held back. The blood, the cross, the resurrection, repentance and faith, the crucified life, etc.! Lives are being changed. We are only able to feature a small portion of those being reached. God is good. Let’s roll saints. Jesus is coming. | Support

As you can see, Guillermo joyfully received the Word of our LORD spoken to him in Spanish. He was instructed to go home and repent and receive Jesus for the forgiveness of all his sins and to walk with Christ daily to the end of his life. Want to lift this man in prayer? God is able!
*No, none of these people receiving God’s love are ever asked to smile. That’s their own disposition.
Maresto received a delicious hot meal,
a cold bottled water,
and the love of Jesus shown to him
in the ministry of the Word etc.
YOUR PRAYER
… for God to use you mightily in this final hour…. Holy Father, I come to You afresh in the name of my LORD Jesus Christ, asking You to strip and cleanse every trace of deceit, pride, self- righteousness, and evil from my heart and life. Please make me Your ambassador, a vessel of honor, purified, Your cleansed vessel for Your eternal glory. Make me to be a consummate soul winner who also faithfully feeds Your flock, to nourish and see You cause them to grow in the knowledge and grace of Christ – to be rooted and grounded in Jesus! In Jesus’ name. Sobeit!

The beautiful faces of those our LORD came to die for …..
Today, was blessed to speak at length about Christ and His kingdom with a dear woman named Miss Soni. With each of the people posted on this page, they are informed that many Christian people in the United States are going to be lifting them in prayer. It’s clear that they receive this as a love gesture from the LORD, that’s for sure!
Soni is asking for prayer for wholeness. She is going through difficult times. She received ministry at length and it was obvious that she is crying out for answer, for someone to talk to. She received the spoken Word and a Jesus tract and was very encouraged to know that many Christians, members of the body of Christ, in the USA, will be lifting her in prayer.
Recently, a man named Juan Carlos (yes that’s his name;)…. was shown how to download the Reina Valera Spanish Bible on his phone. He was overjoyed to be introduced to this. Then He received the ministry of the spoken Word and a Jesus tract and was exhorted to go home and pray the prayer on the back in repentance and faith, surrendering his life to Christ. He readily received. Thank you for praying for Juan Carlos.
This morning, our friend Fernando received the love of God in the form of food, hot coffee, a jacket (it’s very cool here now), and a new pair of pants. Yes he does work and yet is getting “back on his feet” at the moment. You will recall that we’ve been ministering to this man for a few weeks now – the spoken Word, the Jesus tract in Spanish etc. Would you like to pray for a miracle in Fernando’s life?
Your love gifts make all of this possible.
FREEDOM IS COMFORT. Read that again. So is being able to afford ones cost of living much easier, right? Here’s one of the best things about Mexico, the people – “Better it is to be of an humble spirit with the lowly (poor), than to divide the spoil with the proud (rich).“ Proverbs 16:19 …. where I live in Mexico everyone treats everyone else well, they help each other, they value everyone. Mexicans help Mexicans. Family is of the utmost importance – therefore this nation has a future. God will not bless any nation who does not hold to HIS stated nuclear family unity – Husband, wife, children (Ps 11:3; 68:6; Gen 1:27-28).
MANY is the western world talk about “getting ahead” because they are empty and miserable, dissatisfied. In Mexico and most of the world, people just do their work for the day and count it a blessing with no thought of “getting ahead” but rather which just being thankful they had the blessing of working and making a day’s wage. They do not fret or worry about tomorrow…..
WHEN you support the mission of Christ being executed via safeguardyoursoul, we are a team for Jesus. Be sure you are not supporting us buying garbage “food” from a fast (poisoned) food chain. No, we buy them REAL food, locally sourced, healthy for them as we minister to their immediate needs. This helps a family by buying from their business. Most essential, each person ministered to gets a copy of the JESUS tract and a loving communication of the Gospel of Christ in their own language. Let’s roll saints.
“Love this! You are not only feeding their souls with the pure nourishing words of the Lord, you are also feeding their physical bodies with the pure nourishment of real food. Team Jesus!” Karen Cochran
Oh, and the people whom the food is purchased from are ministered to and super receptive…. and also appreciative that they were allowed to be involved in helping the hungry. In Mexico, everyone helps everyone. Amazing.
WHEN Jesus is truly “FIRST LOVE” in our lives, we are about HIS Great Commission business, HIS cause (Matthew 28:18-20; Mark 16:15-28; Acts, etc). WHEN you truly follow Jesus, you are about HIS “business” as the absolutely top priority! (Luke 2:49)
It’s a real blessing to be around a whole people who care for and help each other, who value family and human life immensely. No death culture here.
“We celebrate together what God is doing! I feel so much joy when you share what God is doing in Mexico and when you share the pictures of the precious people of Mexico! We are celebrating Jesus! Just as the Apostles did! It is an encouragement to my heart! Team Jesus!” Karen Cochran
Luis was ministered to in several ways and most importantly he readily received the Word of God plentifully spoken to him. With your gifts, our LORD also blessed Luis with a warm family made meal from a dear lady who cooks daily for those in her vicinity. As with all, when Luis was given a Jesus tract he was showed the prayer to pray in repentance and faith on the back (Acts 20:21).
Juan was as amazingly kind to speak with as one can see on his countenance. Just look at that face, that smile, that noble disposition. Need I say more? He graciously received a Jesus tract, some dinero, and the ministry of the spoken Word of our God in Spanish. Boom.
Amazing. Compliments of Christ’s body, moving with His “compassion” on those without Jesus as their Shepherd (Matthew 9:35-38). Ministry Updates
Fernando was ministered to extensively. He’s pretty much bi lingual. He graciously, readily received the JESUS tract and was blessed with some dinero thanks to you. Jesus is touching lives!
Your prayers and support make this possible. Jerry heard the Gospel of Jesus in Spanish, joyfully received a JESUS tract in Spanish, and was very receptive, chimed in, loves the truth, is hungry, was instructed to go home and pray the prayer on the back of the JESUS tract in repentance and faith and to be saved….. this many is on his way at least.
Alejandro received, for the second time, a listening ear, and the love of God in the form of the ministry, a Jesus tract, a hot cup of coffee, and some dinero (no as in Robert haha). Since this was our second meeting and in the first one he received ministry, Alejandra started off immediately talking about God and a local fellowship he was talking about.

“The Certainty of the Words of Truth” [podcast]
Nicholas, the Apostate Deceiver
Historians say that Nicholas (Acts 6:5), a deacon in the first century church, backslid, and led his followers to believe that living in sin would not affect one’s relationship with Christ. The term Nicolaitans is said to come from those who followed Nicholas. Nico-laitans is a compound Greek word. Nico means “to conquer,” and laitans means “the laity.” Satan used Nicholas to conquer his followers through the lie of lawlessness. The evil spirit of Nicholas lives on today through many lawless leaders who operate in the church world in this late hour.
Nicholas taught free love. He and his followers taught that the deeds of believers could not affect their relationship with God. This is antinomianism, which means lawlessness. The Bible clearly refutes such a lie as we will witness in our walk through the Holy Scriptures.
“Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.” 2 Timothy 2:19
“They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.” Titus 1:16
The Bible states here, that those who “profess that they know God” and yet “deny him…in works,” are “abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.”
By this lie of lawlessness, the enemy of souls conquered the people.
“But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitans (means “conquer the laity”), which I also hate…So hast thou also them that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitans, which thing I hate.” Revelation 2:6, 15
Here is some modern terminology for this age-old doctrine:
- Once Saved, Always Saved
- Eternal security (unconditional)
- Calvinism, perseverance of the saints doctrine
In Revelation 2, Jesus Christ tells us that He “hates” two things — “the deeds” and “doctrine of the Nicolaitans.” The Son of God despises the doctrine that teaches that the deeds of men have no effect upon their relationship with Him.
The Scriptures continuously reveal the divine hatred for the acceptance, and even doctrinal authorization, for living in the sins which the LORD tells us violate His holiness, reveal a wicked heart, and will prevent one from entering into the kingdom of God (1 Corinthians 6:9-10; Galatians 5:19-21; Revelation 21:8, 27).
The word “lasciviousness” appears six times in the Bible and means “lack of restraint (from sinning); license for sin; licentiousness.”
To underscore the utter, divine hatred against this lie of lawlessness, it should be noted that this is the only place in Scripture where Jesus Christ, Himself, states that He hates something.
Though they may vary in packaging, these are all kin to the same lawless “ye shall not surely die” lie, which is the lie of the ages.
“Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the Lord your God which I command you.” Deuteronomy 4:2
“For ye have perverted the words of the living God, of the Lord of hosts our God.” Jeremiah 23:36b
“Thus saith the Lord; Stand in the court of the Lord’s house, and speak unto all the cities of Judah, which come to worship in the Lord’s house, all the words that I command thee to speak unto them; diminish not a word.” Jeremiah 26:2
“For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: 19 and if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.” Revelation 22:18-19
“Hath God said” ?
Always remember that whenever you have someone casting doubt on God’s Word, words, you are dealing with a person who is under Satan’s control, is a rejecter of the LORD, and therefore His truth, and is a child of the devil. Every time.
Notice what we see Satan doing in the Garden of Eden just before he changed, altered, added one word to God’s words:
“Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?” Genesis 3:1
Then, in verse 4 we read how Satan added just one three-letter word which changed the meaning of what God said and changed world history.
“And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:” Genesis 3:4
“But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.” Genesis 2:17
“Thou shalt surely die” from God was then changed by Satan to “Ye shall NOT surely die.”
This is the first time we see what’s known as the “eternal security” lie. It’s also known as “once saved always saved” or “perseverance of the saints” heresy. Any person teaching or believeing this lie has partnered with Satan himself.
Knowing “the certainty of the words of truth”
“Bow down thine ear, and hear the words of the wise, and apply thine heart unto my knowledge.
18 For it is a pleasant thing if thou keep them within thee; they shall withal be fitted in thy lips.
19 That thy trust may be in the Lord, I have made known to thee this day, even to thee.
20 Have not I written to thee excellent things in counsels and knowledge,
21 that I might make thee know the certainty of the words of truth; that thou mightest answer the words of truth to them that send unto thee? Proverbs 22:17-21
“that I might make thee know the certainty of the words of truth” – and how can we “know the certainty of the words of truth” if we aren’t even reading them – if we are not reading the preserved Word of God but rather a cheap counterfeit?

Abiding
Delighting in the LORD [podcast]
Many have set up their altar to the false gods of church, church attendance, mere men in ministry, etc., and not at the feet, the throne of Jesus Christ. These are examples of some of the most insidious, the most subtle forms of damnable idolatry.
“And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.” Revelation 22:1
Our lives in Christ must be built around His throne and not a certain church building or Sunday morning event (Jeremiah 17:12; Colossians 3:1-4; Hebrews 4:14-16; Revelation 22:1).
Memory truth:
“A glorious high throne from the beginning is the place of our sanctuary.” Jeremiah 17:12
Heaven is where God is and He’s your headquarters. The LORD Himself is “the place of our sanctuary.”
For many, going to “church” seems to take the place of diligently seeking and knowing, loving, and obeying the LORD. The foundation of such a person will not sustain them in this last hour (Matthew 7:19-29; 24; Luke 21; Hebrews 12:24-28).
The LORD speaks much of the importance of foundations (Psalms 11:3). Those who base their life in Christ on a certain ministry or church gathering or organization, do not have the sure, divine foundation to sustain them in this late hour. Everything is going to be shaken and only that which is truly and soundly grounded in Christ will be left standing.
Like Abel, who chose to do things God’s way and no other way, those who do the same, will be established in Christ the Rock and not be moved.
“And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel. 25 See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaketh from heaven: 26 Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven. 27 And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain. 28 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear: 29 For our God is a consuming fire.” Hebrews 12:24-29
Regrettably, so many, who have simply gotten lost in the church crowd, have not established that intimate, individual place in the sanctuary of the LORD. The coming storms will inevitably uproot them if there is no change, no repentance, and seeking the face of the LORD for themselves. Jesus saves us to establish us.
“As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him: 7 Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving. 8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. 9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. 10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:” Colossians 2:6-10
False churches today seek to sell families on the need to join their country club where’s there’s fun for the whole family. These beguilers cater to the urban family to build their church business, with no intention of preaching the whole counsel of God’s Word, the cardinal doctrines of the original Gospel (Jude 3-4). Their goal is to entertain and to grow their church enterpri$e and not to ground their prey in Christ (Colossians, etc.). It’s all surface level, cosmetic. There is no blood of Jesus, no King James Bible, no cross – no crucified life, no Holy Ghost baptism, no repentance, no holiness, no Christology, no readiness for the soon return of Christ, etc.
If you memorize this Bible verse below and speak it, often, your heart, your direction, your life will be divinely moved upward to the LORD! Memorize 1 Chronicles 16:11 beginning now.
“Seek the LORD and his strength, seek his face continually.” 1 Chronicles 16:11
Those who delight in the LORD, delight to do His will.
“I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart.” Psalms 40:8
“STAY UPON THE LORD”
This is a Recurring Theme in Isaiah and Throughout Holy Writ
“And it shall come to pass in that day, that the remnant of Israel, and such as are escaped of the house of Jacob, shall no more again stay upon him that smote them; but shall STAY UPON the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, in truth.” Isaiah 10:20
“For they call themselves of the holy city, and STAY THEMSELVES UPON the God of Israel; The LORD of hosts is his name.” Isaiah 48:2
“Who is among you that feareth the LORD, that obeyeth the voice of his servant, that walketh in darkness, and hath no light? let him trust in the name of the LORD, and STAY UPON his God.” Isaiah 50:10
The LORD is NOT available to the casual seeker. Think about that.
“He is a rewarder of THEM THAT DILIGENTLY SEEK HIM.” Hebrews 11:6
Our LORD rewards those who “diligently seek him.”
“For 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, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you. 13 And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart. 14 And I will be found of you, saith the LORD: and I will turn away your captivity, and I will gather you from all the nations, and from all the places whither I have driven you, saith the LORD; and I will bring you again into the place whence I caused you to be carried away captive.” Jeremiah 29:11-14
In the ensuing verses (Jeremiah 29:15-19), God pronounces a judgment on His people for following those false leaders who sit upon the seat of David yet didn’t have an obedient heart after the LORD. Today is no different where you have people following false leaders who pretend to be representing Christ and yet, are compromised with false doctrine and worldliness.
Shannon Cook writes:
“Delight yourself in the LORD (Jesus) and He will give you the desires of thine heart. Jesus Christ IS in fact, the greatest desire of the heart of man. ‘Delight yourself in Me (Jesus), and I will give Me to you.’ Makes perfect sense!”
May God bless us with a John 17 and John 15 oneness abiding relationship with Him, possessed with a poor in spirit disposition, and pure heart after the LORD (Matthew 5:3, 6, 8). In Jesus’ Name.
We have nothing outside of what we have in Christ! Read Colossians 1 and 2.
So love Jesus and aren’t seeking His holy face daily, diligently? Not. Turn back to God in repentance, now.
The bless-ed word “delight” appears several times in God’s Word.
“Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.” Psalms 37:4
Having a heart after God is something that is a daily, a moment to moment choice, a decision, which must be cultivated in us.
David, the man after the heart of the LORD, is a glorious example to us.
“I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after mine own heart, which shall fulfil all my will.” Acts 13:22
“One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple. … When thou saidst, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, LORD, will I seek.” Psalms 27:4, 8
“My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing and give praise.” Psalms 57:7
“My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me.” Psalms 63:8
As can be seen in the following verse, legal or religious mindset causes obedience, serving God to the LORD to seem like drudgery.
“To whom shall I speak, and give warning, that they may hear? behold, their ear is uncircumcised, and they cannot hearken: behold, the word of the LORD is unto them a reproach; they have no delight in it.” Jeremiah 6:10
Those living under grace operate in grace, in their heart of hearts, delight to obey their Savior.
“For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.” 1 John 5:3
No matter what’s going on – good or bad – WE KNOW that the song is true …. that our “God is so good, God is soooo gooood, God is so good, He’s so good to me…..” … There’s NO way to sing this simple song of praise and not get happy in Jesus! Impossible.
The LORD our Maker alone can truly satisfy, all the way to the marrow of the bone, to the depth of the human heart!
“For I have satiated (fully satisfy) the weary soul, and I have replenished every sorrowful soul.” Jeremiah 31:25
All who are not full of Christ via knowing and seeking Him, delighting in and worshipping Him perpetually, are full of misery – from which they shall never escape, unless they repent and let Jesus be the King, the LORD, the Master of their lives.
The Bible is music to the ears of truth-seeking followers of Christ! They pour prayerfully of the words of Holy Scripture daily, as they seek the face of the LORD.
Times of fasting and prayer are doing yourself a favor and not God. Yes. You are crucifying self, getting self out of God’s way so that Christ is reigning in your life in place of sinful self! This should be viewed with absolute delight! (Psalms 37:4; Hosea 6:6; Matthew 9:13, etc.). You are crying, you are driving a stake in the ground and declaring: “LORD, You must increase but I must decrease! (John 3:30) That’s the “daily” operation of the cross God has ordained to be transpiring in our lives (Luke 9:23-24; 2 Corinthians 4:10-12; Galatians 2:20, etc.).
“We would worry less if we praised more. THANKSGIVING is the enemy of discontentment and dissatisfaction.” Harry Ironside
Powerful resurrection life teeming in and through our lives requires a going down deep into the death the resurrection of Christ (2 Corinthians 4:10-12). There is no shortcut.
“WE WOULD SEE JESUS.” John 12:20-21
Detox your inner man! Detox your spirit, soul, and body! How? Fasting and Prayer! Delighting in the LORD (Psalms 37:4). Fasting and prayer begins with being done, being fed up, being exhausted of the iniquitous nature that has driven us into darkness, into dismal ditches with guilt, shame, and forfeited blessings the result! Our desire now and henceforth is for Christ to reign supreme in our lives and not self! Self, sin must be dethroned. Serving self instead of the Savior has ushered in every single evil thing into our lives and we now stand forth and declare that Christ must increase but we must decrease! (John 3:30) We do this now with more than just words – also with a holy resolve, a driving of the stake deep into the ground, singly focused on the reign of Heaven’s coming KING, on the seat, the throne of our hearts. The reins of our lives are reserved for Him to reign, no longer us!
“Then shalt thou delight thyself in the LORD; and I will cause thee to ride upon the high places of the earth, and feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.” Isaiah 58:14
“It has been said that no great work in literature or in science was ever wrought by a man who did not love solitude. We may lay it down as an elemental principle of religion, that no large growth in holiness was ever gained by one who did not take time to be often long alone with God.” Austin Phelps
Anita Villarreal exhorts:
“‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart…..do this and you will live.’ Luke 10:27-28
The death of Jesus. Christ on the Cross is what has drawn men to Himself. Christ did this out of Divine Love for humanity, and LOVE ALWAYS DRAWS. It is the LOVE that men and women need, and wherever they find it they want to come and rest in it’s warmth and tenderness. God’s love is the purest form of true, sincere and unselfish love. Of you haven’t received or known this kind of love, ask Jesus to show you this love and by faith receive it. Let Him cleanse your soul of all impurities and forgive you of all your sins.”
We were created to know Him!
“And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.” John 17:3
“And let them make me a sanctuary; that I may dwell among them.” Exodus 25:8
Our union, our oneness with God is from which all else in His kingdom emanates….
“For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.” Romans 14:17
“We are truly living in a time of great apostasy and I would urge each person to seek to know the Lord for yourself as Jesus said in John 17:3 that this is life eternal that we know the only true God and His Son Jesus Christ. In the book of 1 John 5:20 John states that Christ came to give us understanding of the one true God and His son Jesus Christ. David said in Psalms 27:4 that one thing he desired of the Lord and that he would seek after that He could dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of life to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord. I urge people to examine the scriptures and stop trusting in flesh (mere men) for the scripture states that curse is the man that trust in man and makes flesh his arm whose heart has depart from the Lord (Jerm 17:5). Any real man that God has called will only point you to Lord not himself. Wake-up Church those who have an ear to hear what Lord is speaking to His true body.” Matthew Washington

“He Appeared to put away sin by the Sacrifice of Himself” [podcast]
Why did Jesus come?
“When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he
said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave
up the ghost.” John 19:30
This revelation in the above words of the Messiah— “It is
finished”—is consistent with the whole divine unveiling of
Holy Scripture—the redemption of mankind after the fall.
Jesus came to do something and that’s why while dying on
the cross for the sins of the world, He declared “It is
finished” (John 19:30). These are the three most powerful
words ever spoken! What exactly was “finished”?
“For then must he often have suffered since the
foundation of the world: but now once in the end of
the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the
sacrifice of himself.” Hebrews 9:26
Jesus declared mercy and forgiveness over mankind while
He was dying to provide redemption on that cross: “It is
finished” (John 19:30). This simply means “paid in full.” The
price for sin has been fully paid. The claims of the Father’s
justice were perfectly satisfied, paid in full by the precious,
sinless blood of the Son of God. All men are now invited to
come to Him, repent and believe upon the LORD Jesus Christ
for redemption—mercy and forgiveness (Colossians 1:14).
On that cross, the LORD Jesus declared: “It is finished” and
“Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do”
(John 19:30; Luke 23:34).
Prayer: Father I rejoice in the precious blood of Jesus shed for
my sin—to bring me to You for an eternal relationship.
