“Delight” and “Desires” are Biblical Words

God wants to grant the very desires of our hearts and that’s made clear in Christ’s statement:

“Have faith in God (not self) …. Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.” Mark 11:24

WHY not just stop and simply ask HIM?

Abraham

Abraham appears 250 times in God’s Word. Think he’s important?

At God’s command, Abraham, by faith in God and self-abandonment, went out towards a land he had no earthly idea even existed.

“By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went.” Hebrews 11:8

Hebrews 11 is what is called the “hall of faith” chapter where our LORD heralds the faith of many patriarchs who went before us. One of them is beloved Abraham. God promised them a baby. He’s 100 and she’s 90 – and they are going to have a baby!!! NOW, what can’t God do for you?! “Then Abraham fell upon his face, and laughed, and said in his heart, Shall a child be born unto him that is an hundred years old? and shall Sarah, that is ninety years old, bear?” (Genesis 17:17) … “Is any thing too hard for the LORD? At the time appointed I will return unto thee, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son.” (Genesis 18:14)

When we read Hebrews 11 afresh, we begin to further realize that FAITH is not something we use to get things for ourselves but rather something He requires and is the blessed connection we enjoy between God and ourselves.

Jesus’ Prayer

Have you of late read Jesus’ prayer to our Heavenly Father as is on record in John 17? Study that prayer. Much can be learned by what Christ prayed. You will note the grand theme of His being one with His Father and asking that we – His beloved children – be made one with Him.

“That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.” John 17:21

When we begin to serve the LORD with the deep desire to continually know Him better, then we will begin to pray with the LORD’s desire and delight in mind – caring for His glory and not our own selfish lusts. It’s then that we will know He’s conforming us to Christ’s holy image.

“For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.” Romans 8:29

Do you desire Christ-likeness? Are you asking God daily to conform you to Christ’s holy image? Is this not His stated will for your life and for mine? Are we truly “crucified with Christ”? (Galatians 2:20) Are you being taught this daily cross message?

In His earthly life Jesus set this example for us to follow – “I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me.” (John 5:30)

“Not my will, but thine, be done.” Luke 22:42

Worshiping, serving, and praying to God with the right motives is important to the LORD. When we do things His way, He promises that “all” His blessings will follow:

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

GOD is not a genie or slot machine. We don’t obey Him to get something from Him but because we are choosing to love and worship Him for who He is, the Almighty, supreme LORD our Redeemer!

The LORD gave conditions for having our prayers answered. Listen to the apostle John’s words:

“And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight.” 1 John 3:22

What if God just gave you everything your sinful heart desires? Think about it: You would never be moved into the place of being conformed to Christ’s image. Now that would be tragic, wouldn’t it? No, we have to “seek … first” His blessed kingdom’s glory and not our own glory and in that process He is conforming us to Christ.

I must ask myself the simple question “What are my motives in serving God and in my prayers?”

Praying with the right motives is important to the LORD.

—–BIBLICAL FAITH IS NOT ABOUT ATTEMPTING TO USE GOD TO GET SOMETHING FOR OURSELVES (AS THE WORD OF FAITH WOLVES WOULD LEAD THEIR PREY TO BELIEVE). FAITH IS NOT COMING UP WITH SOMETHING WE WANT AND TRYING TO GET GOD TO PROVIDE IT FOR US. REMEMBER WHAT JAMES WARNED US OF?

“Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts.” James 4:3

In the above verse, it seems that the Holy Spirit is addressing misguided, wrong, unpurged motives here. And, as long as our hearts are being circumcised by the LORD through the daily cross, we will not have those self-centered motives that cannot be hid from God who sees all. He cannot be deceived (Galatians 6:7). Instead, we will be made one with Him through daily communion – on His terms – and will pray His perfect will which has Him, His kingdom, and others in mind, not just us or our selfish desires.

If we are denying Christ by denying that “daily” cross He commanded us to take up, we are still praying out of an uncircumcised heart (Philippians 3:3). Can you begin to see how that “daily” dying truly is at the center of our walk with Him?

A pure heart is of the utmost importance to the LORD and can only come as a result of laying ourselves, our will, our lives, our desires aside for His greater glory. It’s really not that difficult friend. When you wake up tomorrow morning, or even right now, stand up before the LORD. Raise your hands and say from your heart “Holy Father, into Your holy hands I commend (submit) my spirit.”(Luke 23:46)

Here’s a sampling of the LORD’s desire for us to have a heart purified by Him – a pure heart:

“Now the end of the commandment (the chief, supreme purpose of all of God’s Word) is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned.” 1 Timothy 1:5

“Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.” Matthew 5:8

Our LORD would have us to pray for a pure heart: “Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.” Psalms 51:10

Jesus made it clear that He desires to answer our prayers for what we desire and yet, those desires have to come out of a daily cross relationship with the LORD where our desires are made one with His. Isn’t that what He’s getting at when He tells us this?:

“Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.” Psalms 37:4

Let’s establish firstly that “delight” and “desires” are God’s words and therefore important to Him.

As we “delight” in knowing and truly worshiping the LORD “in spirit and in truth,” our “desires” will be purified and conformed perfectly to His (John 4:23-24). Then, when we ask – when we pray – there will be congruency.

As we are made one with Christ by seeking Him, we will then “delight” in Him and our “desires” will be what He desires.

MODERN WOLVES ARE EASILY IDENTIFIED AS THOSE WHO ARE LEADING A WHOLE GENERATION TO BELIEVE THAT GOD IS JUST SITTING IN HEAVEN WAITING FOR THEM TO USE HIS WORD AGAINST HIM, TO HAVE ENOUGH FAITH TO GET THE THINGS THEY SO DESIRE, TO OBTAIN MANY THINGS FROM HIM FOR THEIR OWN SELF-SERVING USE. BASICALLY, IN THIS GODLESS THEOLOGY, THE INDIVIDUAL IS HIS OWN “LITTLE GOD” WHO DESIGNS AND ORDERS HIS OWN WORLD USING WORDS BY HIS OWN FAITH. SO HE’S IN CONTROL, NOT THE LORD. THIS EVIL THEOLOGY SUPPOSES THAT THE LORD, THE ONLY SAVIOR, HAS NO FURTHER SANCTIFYING PURPOSE FOR THE LIVES OF THOSE HE HAS SAVED FROM SIN AND HELL. NONSENSE. TITUS 2:11-14

But the Bible says:

“And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again.” 2 Corinthians 5:15

The true follower of Christ does not live for his own glory but rather for God’s. He knows that he is no longer his own but rather bought with the price of the very blood of Jesus (1 Corinthians 6:19-20). Such a person who does things his own way instead of God’s is not right with God. You see, the LORD must be followed and obeyed on His clearly stated (biblical) terms and no other.

While we should desire to have an open prayer life – life of prayer – with the LORD, we must also understand that God is after more than just giving us all that we ask for and all that our sinful, self-serving hearts desire.

WE ARE TO OFFER EVERY “SUPPLICATION”TO THE LORD (PHILIPPIANS 4:6). A “SUPPLICATION” IS SIMPLY A HUMBLE REQUEST TO THE FATHER IN JESUS’ NAME (JOHN 16:23-24). WHILE “SUPPLICATION” IS IMPORTANT, SO ALSO IS COMMUNION – PRAYER COMMUNION. THERE ARE MANY TYPES OF PRAYER IN GOD’S WORD AND SEEN IN THE LIVES OF HIS PEOPLE THROUGHOUT HOLY SCRIPTURE. IT’S QUITE AMAZING HOW THAT A WHOLE INDUSTRY OPERATING WITHIN THE CHURCH WORLD ONLY EMPHASIZES ONE OF MANY ASPECTS OF PRAYER. WHY? WELL, IT’S TO THEIR GREEDY ADVANTAGE. IT’S TO THEIR SELF-SERVING PURPOSE TO GET YOU DEMANDING AND ASKING GOD IN PRAYER FOR EVERY LITTLE COVETOUS THING YOUR DEPRAVED HEART SO DESIRES. YOU SEE, THEY WANT YOU LIKING THEM SO THEY TELL YOU WHAT YOUR SINFUL NATURE WANTS TO HEAR SO THAT YOU WILL RECIPROCATE WITH GIVING/SUPPORTING THEIR MINISTRY ($). THESE GREEDY BEGUILERS WILL NEVER TELL YOU TO DIE DOOR NAIL DEAD – TO BE CRUCIFIED WITH CHRIST AND THEREFORE RAISED UP IN HIS BLESSED POWER TO GLORIFY HIM ALONE! WHY? –BECAUSE SUCH DOESN’T SELL! (PHILIPPIANS 3:18-19)

“Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.” Hebrews 13:8

Has Jesus changed? No. Impossible. Did Jesus do miracles while on earth? Yes.

Does God still do miracles? YES. Hebrews 13:8. He does miracles and gives prophecy but not fake stuff. The LORD’s works are real, tanglible. They can be proven and not just propped by false ministers (2 Corinthians 11:12-15). God’s miracles are authentic and bring glory to Him and not the mere men (1 Corinthians 1:29-31; Colossians 2:18-19). Lots of frauds pretending to raise the dead and prophesy and do miracles – Jesus foretold this very thing and told us that they’d be cast into hell (Matthew 7:21-23). These are Satan’s counterfeiters and yet, their evil in no way negates the miracle working power of our unchanging LORD Jesus today!

“Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.” Matthew 7:21-23

God the Father answers prayer and does miracles in the name of Jesus and on His perfect merit alone! (John 14:13-14; 16:23-24) Anything added is of Satan in order to draw attention from and steal the glory from Christ! (Colossians 2:18-19)

A relationship with the LORD is not all about us but rather about Him. It involves knowing, worshiping, and obeying Him and trusting in His wisdom. Since He loves us He will not answer the prayer we might pray that’s out of His will (unless one persists – then He may turn us over as He did when Israel cried out for a human king in rejection of Him 1 Samuel 8:6. See Give Us a King!. Faith will quicken us to prayer and to truly trust that God will bring to pass His perfect will. It is trusting that He can and will do what we CANNOT do (Mark 10:27).

Are You Following the Voices of Wolves instead of Christ?

IF I AM SO VERY WILLING TO ASK GOD FOR THE THINGS I THINK I NEED AND YET, AM NOT WALKING WITH HIM ACCORDING AS HE HAS PRESCRIBED, MIGHT HE FRUSTRATE MY LIFE IN ORDER TO GET ME ALIGNED WITH HIM? (HEBREWS 12:5-6) ISN’T HE THE POTTER AND WE HIS CLAY? (JEREMIAH 18:6). THE LAST TIME I CHECKED, HE’S IN CHARGE, NOT ME – OR YOU.

You see, today, most Christians (or people who think they are Christians) are living according to the voices of the day which are calling them to worship at the altar of self. Hint: There’s no cross (dying to self) in their message, hence they deny Christ. Weren’t we forewarned of these end-time wolves and their “damnable heresies”?

“But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. 2 And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. 3 And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.” 2 Peter 2:1-3

THE GULLIBLE, WHO ARE NOT IN GOD’S WORD DAILY, ARE EASILY MANIPULATED AND MISLED FOR THE SELF-SERVING PURPOSES OF THE “MANY FALSE PROPHETS” THAT OPERATE TODAY (MATTHEW 7:15). THE “CHRISTIAN” INDUSTRY OF SPEAKING AND WRITING IS A MULTI-BILLION DOLLAR ENTERPRISE WHEREIN THE “FALSE PROPHETS” AND THE “FALSE TEACHERS” OPERATE TODAY. THESE LARGE SUMS OF MONEY ARE BEING GENERATED AS THEY “MAKE MERCHANDISE” OF THOSE WHO LACK THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD’S WORD. THEY ARE BEING EXPLOITED AND “DESTROYED” BY THESE MANY FALSE LEADERS.

“My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.” Hosea 4:6

The prophet Isaiah warned:

“For the leaders of this people cause them to err; and they that are led of them are destroyed.” Isaiah 9:16

Only those who refuse to have an independent, individual, personal daily walk with Christ will be deceived and ultimately damned ( 2 Thessalonians 2:10-12). You see, so many today who have been saved “fall away” afterwards because they refuse to lay down their own lives in this sinful, fleeting world. They refuse to genuinely follow Jesus – HIS way (Luke 8:13; Galatians 5:4).

THE FACT THAT THESE MODERN WOLVES CAN SPEAK OF SUCCESS IN THIS EARTHLY LIFE, RELATIONSHIPS, CHURCH ATTENDANCE, GETTING MORE FAVOR AND FINANCES FOR SELF, ETC., AND NEVER TEACH THE “DAILY” CROSS JESUS TAUGHT SO OFTEN AS AN ESSENTIAL, IDENTIFIES THEM AS “ENEMIES OF THE CROSS OF CHRIST.” (LUKE 9:23-24; PHILIPPIANS 3:18-19)

“(For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ: 19 Whose end is destruction (they’re going to hell), whose God is their belly (carnal, self-serving appetites), and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.)” Philippians 3:18-19

YES THERE IS ABSOLUTE ANSWERED PRAYER, BREAKTHROUGH, MIRACLES, AND COMPLETE AND TOTAL VICTORY IN THE LORD – WHEN WE TRULY OBSERVE AND DO THINGS HIS WAY AND NOT OUR OWN AND NOT ANYONE ELSE’S WAY (JOHN 15:7). WE MUST LEARN THE LORD’S WAYS THROUGH DAILY PERSONAL STUDY OF HIS WORD AND WHEN WE DO WE WILL THEREFORE “HATE EVERY FALSE WAY.” (PSALMS 119:104; 128)

“If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.” John 15:7

God be thanked that we can pray to Him with all confidence and access through our LORD Jesus Christ.

“And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us: 15 And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him.” 1 John 5:14-15

Jacked Up Jezebel Rebuked [podcast]

“Jezebel is a widely rampant spirit of rebellion that is hard to get rid of, rooted in pride, self-will, and self-sufficiency. Only the LORD can deliver but only if the individual truly repents and submits to Him, to His Word.” Anita Villarreal

Any person defending this jezebel heresy that women can be pastors, elders over men, is under the control of Satan, period. And in need of true repentance (James 4:7).

—-There are NO female apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, or teachers under the New Testament (Ephesians 4:8, 11-12). Jesus gave these “gifts unto MEN.” (Ephesians 4:8) There is not even one woman mentioned in 27 books as an elder over Christ’s flock. Such is clearly forbidden (1 Timothy 2:11-12). In Acts 21:9 we read of Phillip’s daughters which “did prophesy” which is a gift of the Spirit (one of the nine-1 Corinthians 12:7-10). The office gifts are eldership functions for men called to be overseers over Christ’s flock, which is completely different than the gifts of the Spirit which every believer can function in and certainly women are seen doing such as Phillip’s daughters and how women are mentioned concerning operating in the gifts of the Spirit in 1 Corinthians 14.

Classic case of a jezebel lashing out when the Word of GOD corrects her (2 Timothy 3:16-17). Her rebellion is against God. Jezebel is utterly rebellious. She hates what God’s Word says and so the demons that control jezebels will lash out in personal attacks against the men who stand on the truth unwaveringly (such as did Elijah whom Jezebel sought to kill).

“Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. 12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. 13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve. 14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.” 1 Timothy 2:11-14

“As I look around America I ask myself who can find a virtuous woman? Whose whole life is surrendered to God. And centered in the fear of the Lord. No woman will submit to their husbands unless they first submit to God. Ephesians 5:22 says women are to submit to their husbands, “as unto the Lord.” That must come first. And what is a great price in the sight of God? A woman who has a meek and quiet spirit (1 Peter 3:4). This is true beauty to God. But Jezebels are the complete opposite. Full of rebellion, pride and hatred! God says throw her down!” Karen Cochran

From the divine perspective, this is not about oppression but rather about protect. See Revelation 2:20-24 to see what Jesus warns when a woman is allowed to lead as an elder in the body of Christ. He uses the words “The depths of Satan” and speaks of the death and destruction that will result when the men allow a woman to lead in a manner that is outside of the stated role God ordained for the woman.

Yes the LORD said He will pour out His Spirit on all flesh, sons and daughter, but not to anoint a woman to do something HE forbids. Women are to teach women yes but not the general body of believers (Titus 2:1-5). There are NO female elders in the New Testament. God forbids it. Eldership is reserved for men – to humbly teach, lead and protect and cherish women and children.

“There’s a crazy role reversal across the land and men should always lead. Even our women’s prayer group was led by the pastor because that’s what he believed. Women are more emotional and men more logical. Both have their designated roles . God meant them to compliment each other rather than to compete.” John Umlauf

When people don’t like what God’s Word states, they will attack the mere messenger as if that changes the truth. Not. And, they heap judgment on themselves by doing so (Matthew 7:1-5; James 2:13). Persecution

“For we are not as many, which corrupt (twist, adulterate) the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.” 2 Corinthians 2:17

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

“Whoso despiseth the word shall be destroyed: but he that feareth the commandment shall be rewarded.” Proverbs 13:13

Jesus Addresses the Ahabs and Self-Appointed Jezebel at the Church at Thyatira

Revelation 2:20-24

Revelation 2:20-24 is about a certain self-appointed woman who was allowed by the spineless men in Thyatira to operate out of the biblically-stated order for women in the church setting.

Rev 2:20 Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols.
Rev 2:21 And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not.
Rev 2:22 Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds.
Rev 2:23 And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.
Rev 2:24 But unto you I say, and unto the rest in Thyatira, as many as have not this doctrine, and which have not known the depths of Satan, as they speak; I will put upon you none other burden.

Racism: Nation Rising Against Nation [radio]

Nation Shall Rise Against Nation

Laboring in the Spirit, not the Flesh

“Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.” Jude 21

It’s not about the color or your skin, it’s about what kingdom you’re in!

What Should be the Response of the Body of Christ? – LOVE!

Reading 1 Corinthians 13 each morning this week is a life changer. Nothing in our lives is going to work out right if we don’t prayerfully endeavor to walk in God’s love – loving God and our neighbor, above ourselves. I love pouring prayerfully over 1 Corinthians 13 and Philippians 2:3-5. Life changing is an understatement!

Racism is hatred and is not a skin color. It is a heart condition – coming from a sinful heart. Memorize Romans 2:11.

In the time of tribulation for the believers at Thessalonica, the Holy Spirit spoke through Paul and said this:

“And the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the patient waiting for Christ.” 2 Thessalonians 3:5

By this we know of a certainty that the Holy Spirit is leading, directing our “hearts into the LOVE of God” and not the flesh, not a fleshly response. We now face tribulation and can be assured by this truth that our unchanging God is directing our hearts into His love and not hatred.

This is a divine truth for every era, every hour…. and we sure know that sin is exponentially abounding in this late hour…. which means divine grace is even greater – to save, heal, bless, deliver, and make whole!!!!

“But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:” Romans 5:20

Here’s more evidence of God’s leading His people into the love walk in trying times:

“But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer. 8 And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.” 1 Peter 4:7-8

Any person who does not walk in God’s love is not saved and we know that from many Scriptures. No hate, no hater shall enter Christ’s kingdom, no matter what justification that sinner thinks he has to warrant hating anyone. “He that loveth not knoweth not God.” (1 John 4:8) “Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him.” (1 John 3:15)

When His disciples ask Him “what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?”, Jesus gave them this answer:

“And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. 5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. 6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation (ethnic group) shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows. 9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake. 10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. 11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. 12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. 13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.” Matthew 24:4-13

“Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. 4 No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier. 5 And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully.” 2 Timothy 2:3-5

The Church began, will end as containing precious souls from every nation, kindred, and tongue (Acts 2; Revelation 5:9; 14:6).

The New Testament church began with men from every nation under Heaven and will be the same throughout eternity in glory.

Acts 2:1-13

“And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;” Revelation 5:9

Nation/ethnos, ethnic yes…groups at odds was foretold by Jesus – Matthew 24:7

Yes we can be at peace, Jesus told us to fear not and to be at peace …..

John 14:27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
