Divine Prescription for Blessing

Read this verse below closely and see what comes first in God’s economy for us, the negative or the positive? Look for and find the 6 elements of renovation required by God and note the divine order:

“See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant.” Jeremiah 1:10

1. “to root out”

2. “to pull down”

3. “to destroy”

4. “to throw down”

5. “to build”

6. “to plant”

The LORD is working in His children “to root out” and “to pull down” and  “to destroy” and “to throw down” all false perceptions, notions, and beliefs of Him so that He can begin “to build” and “to plant” that which is His truth in us.

Why would this simple order and process given to us by God be hard to understand? Do you let your children eat the dessert first or the meat and vegetable? Do you wax your floor or car first or do you CLEAN it first and then wax it? Do you use mouthwash first or do you brush your teeth clean first?

Many who are either simply very immature spiritually, and or those who are waxing cold in this late hour, do not “endure sound doctrine” and so reject the “negative” communication involved in transmitting the full counsel of God’s Word.

In Hebrews 12:24-28 we are told that God is shaking all things and those who are not submitting to Him and His process of being conformed to the holy image of the Son of God, are being ousted as bad fruit from the tree of His eternal kingdom. They are not remaining in Him and therefore will be cast into the fires of eternal damnation (John 15:1-6).

These who reject the message of repentance and sanctification will never experience “times of refreshing … from the presence of the LORD” because they are in rebellion, refusing to do things God’s way. No, instead they are foolishly attempting to come to and serve God on their own terms. “The presence of the LORD” and “refreshing” are only known to those who are presently submitting to God – on HIS terms.  There will be no blessing for the wicked who rebel – now or ever (Psalms 68:6b).

PRAYER: Holy Father, please make me whole, make me holy, from the inside out, as only You can do! In Jesus’ name. Amen!

Notice in this following verse how God desires to refresh the soul of the righteous and yet, repentance must of necessity precede that blessed breakthrough:

“Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord.” Acts 3:19

Those who reject the “negative” message of repentance and God calling out our sins define themselves as the exact ones who need this message. To those who are right with God, to those who love Him more than themselves, “his commandments are not grievous.” (1 John 5:3)

“For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.” 1 John 5:3

It’s ALWAYS a matter of just WHO we love most – God or self.

There are two kinds of people who claim to be Christ’s – the proud and the humble:

“God resisteth (sets Himself against) the proud but giveth grace to the humble.” James 4:6

But the LORD is not working in many who refuse to hold themselves accountable to “sound doctrine” but rather heap false teachers to themselves that never preach the negative stuff that is totally necessary. This is exactly why seeker-friendly, emergent church devils, and people like Rick Warren, and Joel Osteen are so popular today. These smiling wolves are flattering you straight into the bowels of eternal damnation. Hell awaits. These ravenous beguilers tickle the ears of people for their own self-serving “success,” catering to what they know self-loving people want to hear. It’s a business strategy and it’s for your very soul.  They are literally fulfilling prophecy:

“Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine. 3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; 4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.” 2 Timothy 4:2-4

DOES anyone want to argue with the ALMIGHTY? Beloved, JUST WHAT did He list first? Get to know what our LORD told us in Jeremiah 1:10. You will need it often/daily due to the innumerable lost souls who think they are saved but listen to spineless moral cowards today who fill the media, telling people what THEY – their sinful flesh – want to hear.

This is the Gospel. Death and burial must precede resurrection and only those who submit to and endure the death, will experience the resurrection. It’s how things work between a Holy God and sinful men. John the Baptist had to come before Christ to “prepare ye the way of the LORD.” (Isaiah 40:3-5) Just like all of the Old Testament prophets, John the Baptist’s preaching was totally citing the sin of God’s people and calling them to repent or they will perish (Matthew 3:7-10). This is necessary in order to restore a life. The old must be done away with. “New wine MUST be put into new bottles.” (Mark 2:22)

“The voice of him that crieth in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the LORD, make straight in the desert a highway for our God. 4Every valley shall be exalted, and every mountain and hill shall be made low: and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough places plain: 5And the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.” Isaiah 40:3-4

Are those who speak the raw truth of God’s Word “negative” people or is the truth contrary to what we have been misled/conditioned to believe? Could those who preach the truth, the full counsel of God’s Word, be a gift from God to you? Could the LORD be trying to rescue your eternal soul before it’s too late and you don’t yet realize it?

Paul the apostle said:

“Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?” Galatians 4:16

Even an amateur Bible student realizes that God’s prophets and apostles, those true messengers of His, were despised, rejected, and murdered by the religious hypocrites of their day. Could it be that you are just like those hell bound hypocrites? Do you attack those who preach sin, repentance, and the danger of eternal hell?

Why Does Jesus Save Souls?

“Who gave himself for us, THAT he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.” Titus 2:14

Does Jesus save a soul just to bless him with trinkets in this fleeting world of which He said His kingdom is not of? (John  18:36)  Is that the extent of the divine purpose for saving people? Why does Jesus save a person? Is it just for that person to live a life of self-serving pursuits and lusts? For what purpose does the LORD save someone?

“And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body.” Matthew 26:26

As He did with this bread, it seems that He blesses us with His salvation and then breaks us to be used of Him in reaching the world around us. That’s quite a differing picture from that being painted by the vast majority of leaders today.

Like it or not, the bad news must come before the Good News. Don’t like it? Tough! Deal with things GOD’s way or perish as a lawless “worker of iniquity.” (Matthew 7:21-23) The lake of fire awaits!

“But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees (those who claim to know God) come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?  8Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance: 9And think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father (example: “I’m a Baptist, I was saved at 12”, etc.): for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham. 10And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: therefore every tree which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.” Matthew 3:7-10

No breakthrough will ever occur in the life of the person who is a moral coward and refuses to submit to the sanctifying, breaking, rebuking, and killing process. That person who would nay say to the messengers of the LORD is in darkness and loves his/her darkness and is therefore not coming to the light (John 3:19-21). They shall never see or understand or walk in the LORD’s blessed grace until they truly humble and die to self and submit to His Word.

“He that covereth (tries to hide) his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy.” Proverbs 28:13

If you don’t want HIS “negative,” you will not receive His blessings and that’s positive!

Perhaps the problem is that we don’t yet understand that God’s kingdom is all about King Jesus and so it doesn’t revolve around us but rather Him.

Who’s the potter of your life? You or God?

Jeremiah 18:6 says “O house of Israel, cannot I do with you as this potter? saith the LORD. Behold, as the clay is in the potter’s hand, so are ye in mine hand, O house of Israel.”

God grant us hearts of flesh, making us humble, pliable, and teachable (Ezekiel 36:24-26).

Top 12 Missing Essential Doctrines in the Modern Church World! [podcast]


DOES THIS SOUND LIKE YOUR “CHURCH” OR FAVORITE PREACHER? It’s real simple… if they are not preaching the cardinal doctrines of the original Gospel given to us in the New Testament, they are preaching “another gospel” and are “accursed.” (Galatians 1:6-9).

“For MANY DECEIVERS ARE ENTERED INTO THE WORLD, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist. 8 Look to yourselves, that we lose not those things which we have wrought, but that we receive a full reward. 9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. 10 If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: 11 For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.” 2 John 1:7-11

Modern church wolves refuse to preach the original Gospel of Jesus Christ from the pages of Holy Scripture and in the power of the Holy Ghost. No, instead they preach sermonettes that cater to the self-worshiping idolaters they entertain and collect money from (2 Timothy 3:1-7). They don’t even use the King James Bible but rather some cheap counterfeit. Their ear-tickling topics range from healing damaged emotions, 5 love languages, best life now, recovery, learning to love yourSELF, coping platitudes, loneliness, psychobabble band aids, law of attraction, being a successful single, purpose driven delusionment, etc.

Fake “bibles” Exposed

LOTS of lying going on when we have counterfeits peddling affirmation without salvation, the “promise” of things “getting better” when their prey are heading straight to hell. Especially certain social media platforms are flooded with this false gospel coming out of “Christians.” There is no sin or repentance in their message which alone identifies it as a false gospel. You see, the things that are happening to the sinners around us are allowed by God in order to lead them to repentance and yet, the counterfeits among us are assuring those sinners it’s all going to get better and never giving them the 10 Commandments to show them they are sinners (Galatians 3:24) and then, leading them to Jesus (Romans 10:9-10, 13, etc.).  10 Commandments Evangelism

In the modern church world, there is …..

No cross. No Jesus. No blood. No judgment. No sin. No repentance. No hell. No readiness for the soon return of Jesus. No Heaven. No equipping preparation for ministry. No Scripture memory. No holiness. No Messianic prophecies and their fulfillment. No Christology. No fear of God. No repentance. etc., all of which are Bible doctrines essential to salvation and/or essential to sound foundation in Christ and are missing in the modern church world.

“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

The only reason we, each of us has been deceived in the past is due to our own biblical ignorance (Proverbs 24:5; Hosea 4:6; 2 Timothy 2:15). Lacking the knowledge of the Word, we didn’t see what they were LEAVING OUT. We didn’t know to discern what they were teaching and what they were NOT teaching. Now, as we grow in the knowledge of the LORD through diligent daily study of His Word, we know to look for the cardinal doctrines of the Christian faith.

THE TOP ESSENTIAL BIBLICAL DOCTRINES NEVER HEARD IN THE APOSTATE MODERN CHURCH WORLD!

  1. The divinity of Jesus Christ (John 1:1-4, 14; 1 Timothy 3:16). | Jesus Christ is God
  2. The virgin birth of the only begotten Son of God (Isaiah 7:14; Matthew 1:23). | The Virgin Birth of Jesus
  3. The essential precious blood of Jesus Christ (Matthew 26:28; Hebrews 9:22; 1 Peter 1:18-19). | The Blood
  4. The inherent fallen nature of mankind (Genesis 6:5, 12; Jeremiah 17:9; Romans 7:18). | Fallen, Sinful Man
  5. Worshipping God not idols (Exodus 20:3-5). | Idolatry
  6. The essential doctrine and necessity of repentance (Luke 13:3). | Repentance
  7. The Return of Christ and being ready for it (Luke 12:40; 21:34-36). | The Return
  8. Who Jesus is returning for and who will be shut out of His eternal kingdom (Matthew 25:1-13; Ephesians 5:25-27). | Ready for Christ’s Return
  9. The essential of enduring to the end to be with Christ eternally, initial and final salvation (Matthew 10:22; 24:13; Hebrews 3:6, 12-15; 10:26-30; Revelation 2:26). | Enduring to the End
  10. The essential daily cross, the crucified life, which Jesus required in following Him (Luke 9:23-24). | Living the Crucified Life
  11. Forgiving all others from the heart (Matthew 18:21-35). | Forgiveness
  12. Walking in God’s love (Ephesians 5:1). | The Love Walk
  13. Holiness – including the necessity of personal holiness (Hebrews 12:14; 1 Peter 1:15-16). | Holiness
  14. Judgment (Psalms 9:15-17). | Judgment
  15. Hell (Matthew 8:12; Mark 3:29; Luke 16:19-31). | Hell
  16. Fearing God (Psalms 2:11; Luke 12:4-5). | Fearing God

When’s the last time you heard verses like this in the modern church?

“So likewise, whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple.” Luke 14:33

“Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it.” Luke 17:33

The modern church is going down in flames into the flames of hell. It cannot be reformed. Come out from it.

“And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.” Revelation 18:4

In 2 Timothy 4:3 to “endure sound doctrine” means to hold oneself accountable to it. WHAT’s at the root of those who refuse to “endure sound doctrine”? – They simply do not love Jesus like He commanded them to (Matthew 22:37-39). They profess Christ as Savior and yet love self supremely and therefore serve the god of self. The Holy Ghost through Paul told us this of those who have a mere “form of godliness” in the last day resumé found in 2 Timothy 3:1-7.

Notice by divine design the very first thing he reveals is that “men shall be lovers of their own selves.” All the following evil comes out of self love, refusal to love God supremely and therefore repent, deny self, take up the cross and follow Jesus:

“This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. 2  For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3  Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, 4  Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; 5  Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. 6  For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, 7  Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.” 2 Timothy 3:1-7

God is toppling all the heart idols (Ezekiel 14:3)… because He’s Jealous and wants us looking to Him and not these mere men, these vile wolves, these celebrity sinners posing as His representatives (Exodus 34:14).

“For thou shalt worship no other god: for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God:” Exodus 34:14

Swept Away in the “Strong Delusion” [podcast]


Recorded at a fellowship in Houston, Texas

God Himself personally sends a “strong delusion” to all who do not love His truth so that they WILL believe lies. He greases their pole to hell. That’s how personally He takes it when people call Him a liar by not believing His Word.

“Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, 10 and with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: 12 that they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.” 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12

“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.” Colossians 2:8

Notice “of God” and “NOT of God”

“He that is OF GOD heareth God’s words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are NOT OF GOD.” John 8:47
