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

Many false ways are being presented to us today, all in the name of the LORD Himself.

We must go with Christ, not the crowd.

“For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.” Galatians 1:10

Departing from the Organized Church – Not Christ, nor His True Remnant!

In this late hour, God is calling His people to “Come out of her my people” – that is, religious Babylon (Revelation 18:4-5). Such is necessary in order not to be swept away in the tidal wave of deception – “strong delusion” caused by a rejection of the written Word of God (2 Thessalonians 2; Hosea 4:6).

“Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;” 1 Timothy 4:1

Notice in the above prophetic word, nothing is mentioned concerning departing from the pulpit or departing from professing to be a Christian. Only a departure from the faith – that is, the faith of the original Gospel on record in the Holy Scriptures.

All who claim to love the LORD, who is the truth, and yet don’t “hate every false way” clearly prove their “love” for Christ is shallow at best.

“Thy prophets have seen vain and foolish things for thee: and THEY HAVE NOT DISCOVERED (uncovered, exposed) thine iniquity, to turn away thy captivity (bondage); but have seen for thee false burdens and causes of banishment.” Lamentation 2:14

This is why so many who are good church members are still living in sin. They are sitting under wolves who pose as representatives of Christ yet don’t expose and call them out.

People are falling for the obvious hoaxes like flies and it’s all because, in their personal lives, they have refused to be ever more deeply rooted and grounded in God’s Word, in a daily cross walk with Jesus. They denied Christ His rightful place and reign in their lives, and instead have pursued the things of this fleeting world (Luke 19:27).

So Satan is now beginning to come down with great wrath because he knows his time is short (Revelation 12:12). He is coming along with all these fake revivals, and misleading movies and the counterfeits jump at them like kids taking candy from a kidnapper. They have rejected Jesus in their daily lives and have been sent “strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness” (2 Thessalonians 2:11-12).

You say you love praise and worship? Yet do you love God? If so, you will be devouring HIS words, first and foremost. This is how you seek Him – in His Word and in private prayer. Is Jesus Christ truly the object of your worship? Or, do you simply like how YOU feel when you praise and worship? If so, what does that reveal? Is the fruit of the Holy Spirit being produced in the revival seekers? No.

“Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them.” Psalms 119:165

Deep peace and all the bless-ed fruit of the Spirit germinate and grow healthfully in the lives all who are truly His, and ingest His Word perpetually. His “Great peace” is reserved exclusively for those who truly love God and therefore love His Word. Those who truly love God go straight to God – to His Word. They live in it. It’s their life! Read Psalms 1.

“I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.” Job 23:12

Christ’s true remnant is engrossed in His Word and therefore not tricked or fooled into looking to a movie, a ministry, or a movement to get their view of God.

“I rejoice at thy word, as one that findeth great spoil.” Psalms 119:162

ALL the praise and worship in the world won’t fill your heart with divine truth. Such an idea is a “false way” and to be hated or far less prioritized than getting God’s Word inside of you. Bible reading is irreplaceable. You eat or you live hungry, famished, confused, un-fueled, deceived. In fact, your singing to the LORD will never be rich unto you of the revelation of WHO He is by filling your heart and mind daily with HIS Word. King James Bible, devour it daily!

All we have is fake religion without a heart after the LORD like beloved David (Acts 13:22).

IF you yearn for “praise and worship” and aren’t in God’s Word, devouring it daily – you are on a collision course with hell.

“This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me. 9 But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.” Matthew 15:8-9

Let’s cease making claims when there’s no evidence of the delusions we believe. Stop it. JUST because YOU want something to be true, DOES NOT make it true. Repent.

The recent revelations, manifestations, the coming to light of the delusions of Satan coming steadily down the pike has brought the truth-loving remnant into the light. And also those who are counterfeits, who live by their own uncirumcized hearts, wicked imaginations, and feelings. The separation, the distinction between the wheat and tares, the sheep and goats, is becoming increasingly obvious.

It’s simple, those who love God truly are searching out, studying, and holding to His holy truth. They alone are protected. Memorize this truth beloved of God. These exact words from our LORD WILL be instrumental in leading you safely to the eternal home He’s preparing for us!

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

Some among us still think these fake “revivals,” “Jesus” movies, etc., are a “move of God” when the name of Jesus is hardly ever mentioned and His Word is never opened. God is calling you to repent and be saved.

Notice they are exalting and deifying revival, not Christ. The Bible foretold there’d be a great falling away before Jesus returns, not a great revival (2 Thessalonians 2). Only those who don’t love Jesus enough to read His WORD for themselves are being sucked into this, and the cost is their very eternal soul for rejecting Christ (Luke 19:27).

“They are elevating revival above the name of all names. It’s become so obvious this is not about Christ.” Khrista

WHEN we truly love God we love His truth, and we “HATE every false way.” It seems apparent from the following verses of Holy Scripture that the more we seek our LORD and He instills in our innermost man the love for His truth and His holy fear, to that degree we will increasingly “HATE every false way.”

“Through thy precepts I get understanding: therefore I HATE every false way.” Psalms 119:104

“Therefore I esteem all thy precepts concerning all things to be right; and I HATE every false way.” Psalms 119:128

Those who hate lies prove it by being daily established in divine truth and therefore do no hearken to lies, deceptions, the schemes of the evil one. They are “not ignorant of his devices” (2 Corinthians 2:11).

Not only WHAT we say but also HOW we say or convey it, may God bless each of His children to speak His truth with grace from a heart purified by Him, in Jesus’ Name, amen.

“But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:” Ephesians 4:15

“Let your speech be alway with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man.” Colossians 4:6

Dangled Dollars Draw Deceived Covetous Men

“But godliness with contentment is great gain. 7 For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. 8 And having food and raiment let us be therewith content. 9 But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition. 10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.” 1 Timothy 6:6-10

“Amen. The world’s pleasures are wantonly pursued by too many believers who will only reap what they sow. Reaping only sorrows and disappointments, not the fruits of the Spirit.” Barbara

“No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.” Matthew 6:24

Men rich in this world honor gold not God. Their end shall be eternal damnation. See 2 Peter 2:1-3 and the “damnation” of the rich “false prophets” and “false teachers.”

“He (the rich man) shall go to the generation of his fathers; they shall never see light.” Psalms 49:19

Read Psalm 49 and 37.

The pull of the world, the pull of power via money – the power to do, to go, to purchase – becomes the death pit many fall into – never to escape.

“…no…covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. 6 Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.” Ephesians 5:5-7

This is outside and inside the professing church. This is what we see at the roots of all these delusions, these schemes to deceive the elect via mass promotions and productions such as “Bible” or “Jesus” movies, movements, revivals, and commercial campaigns.

Few if any will make it through the commercialized religious industry where big money circulates and big devils inhabit and control. The junkyard of fallen preachers that have littered the landscape is mountainous. Truth tellers, men who fear God are turned away from participating in the greed-driven religion circus.

Some years ago I was invited to do a weekly TV ministry program at a prime time slot. I did that program for two years, preaching God’s Word, shaking hands and interacting with many who were celebrity TV personalities. God was merciful to control the direction of this, His life. Perhaps it was my lack of talent to draw in the dollars, but whatever it was, He’s been merciful to us, amen saints!

Lazy people, people who are lazy toward God instead of diligent, want someone else to tell them about God instead of repenting and seeking God for themselves in His own Word. They want the mere man preacher, the movie, the story teller, the program, the campaign to tell them about “God.” Satan is allowed to play them all the way into hell. God only rewards those who “diligently seek him” and those who don’t “diligently seek Him” for themselves are rebels (Hebrews 11:6). Satan accommodates counterfeits like this and 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12 plays out.

“This is, I’d say, one of the largest issues ebbing away at gospel solidarity, that we are up against today. Today’s gospel mindset has included heroes, celebrities, and influencers, which are praised beyond the point of known, but ignored Bible doctrine perversions. Because they have a large platform or maybe even a smaller platform, but have a ‘tickle the ears’ gospel, one that is ‘all new,’ and people continue to flock after them. You know the the Bible addresses this spirit, right?

‘Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron.’ ‭‭1 Timothy‬ ‭4‬:‭1‬-‭2‬ KJV‬‬

“This shallow minded lack-of-depth-of-God’s-word ‘Christian person’ seeks out a feel good spirit, a seducing one, right? It is a seductive teaching they go after, one that turns them on, so to speak, toward the false devilish doctrine. It’s new, fresh, influential, informative, and something that’s non-offensive to the surrounding culture. However, it is full of the devil! The warning is:

‘Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee.’ ‭‭1 Timothy‬ ‭4‬:‭16‬ ‭KJV”‬‬ Stacy Strother

Though it will have its ultimate fulfillment with or in “that man of sin,” the antichrist, the following scenario has been in operation as long as mankind has been on earth (2 Thessalonians 2:3). Adam and Eve, Cain and Abel are prime examples of how this truth played out. Ensuing biblical history records the same.

“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

The LORD allows all who “received not the love of the truth” to be sent “strong delusion that they should believe a lie” so that “they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.” Like it or not, God takes it personal when people call Him a liar by not believing what He stated.

SO, you are going to argue to defend the idea that you have a “good church” and yet you are not in God’s Word daily for yourself and have no conviction to be? Boom. Apostasy! 100%. You are sitting under wolves who are not “valiant for the truth” of God, have no conviction of sin, and use fake “bibles” (Jeremiah 9:3). This is the fruit of the false church in America. Run for your life, now.

“There’s nothing new under the Sun. There were many antichrists in the days before the flood. There were many antichrists before Nimrod built the Tower of Babel. There were many antichrists among God’s people after they were delivered from Egypt, and the Red Sea opened for them and destroyed Egypt’s army of antichrists. They proclaimed a feast day “TO THE LORD” but sacrificed to Baal as they “sat down to eat and drink and rose up to play.” I’m sure that’s putting it VERY MILDLY! I believe they had an orgy and listened to proud, rebellious, demonic music. They may have sacrificed children in fire. Whatever it was, beside worshipping the golden calf, they were worthy of death for doing it. It was NO LIGHT THING. It was done by the SPIRIT OF ANTICHRIST.” Alan Ray

CBN and TBN are massive bought and conquered Vatican operations and so massive monies are there, and used to deceive the professing believers in America via this network. Jesus warned:

“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…. 22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.” Matthew 24:11-13, 22

Alan Ray writes:

“No lie is of the truth, as is no liar. All liars and unrepentant sodomites will have their part in the lake of fire. Many are glorying in a travesty of a shameful hell-bound sinner, who called Jesus “Lord, Lord,” who drew nigh to God with his mouth, and honored him with his lips. His fruit shows his heart was far from God, but the deceived who don’t fear God want you to believe otherwise. There is financial incentive behind deceiving the masses into accepting the sodomite lifestyle. LGBT pastors would not be allowed to operate or even partake of communion in a truly godly, obedient, God-fearing assembly.”

“We must have a burning desire to diligently seek the Lord through his word and study to find ourselves approved by God. There are no shortcuts. It doesn’t happen by osmosis..going to church, listening to Christian music or watching movies/ TV shows or other sources of entertainment.” Barbara

“Joyce Meyer and Greg Laurie are definitely an Eastern Star and Mason, NOT true Christians. Billy Graham was also a 33 degree Freemason. The church today is apostate – due to people thinking they are learning about God and Jesus from apostate (satanists, actually) pastors. Do the research and you’ll discover all I typed is true.” Cynthia

“Sadly, this describes most of the ‘Christians’ that I know. They say they love the Lord, but instead they follow ear ticklers, modern day pharisees that are making them twice the sons of hell as they themselves are. (Matt 23:15). They think they are witnessing by posting things like Kelly’s Treehouse posts and Charles Spurgeon quotes instead of Scripture. You can find them gushing on about the ‘Jesus Revolution’ and how wonderful Johnathan Roumie and Greg Laurie are instead of telling about Jesus. You can find them with the name of their favorite celebrity preacher’s name on their so-called bibles (i.e. Joyce Meyer Study Bible). Everything they know is from the accursed, according to Gal 1:8-9 and they refuse to listen to truth, thinking that THEY know the truth. They cannot see that they are riding on the tsunami of apostasy and need to repent. It’s heartbreaking to see and all we can do is pray that they will come out from among her and learn to search the Scriptures for themselves.” Jeannie

Jesus Washes the Feet of His Own [podcast]

What was Jesus demonstrating and teaching us when He washed the feet of His disciples?

The Washed Way – begins with “the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Ghost” – being born again (Titus 3:5-7; John 3:3, 7).

“On the way back from the public bath, a person’s feet would get dirty again. He didn’t need another bath but did need to have his feet washed. ‘He who is bathed needs only to wash his feet, but is completely clean.’ There is a difference between the bath and the basin. The bath speaks of the cleansing received at the time of one’s salvation. Cleansing from the penalty of sin through the blood of Christ takes place only once. The basin speaks of cleansing from the pollution of sin and must take place continually through the Word of God. There is one bath but many foot-washings.” Believer’s Bible Commentary

“If these last words of our Lord had any spiritual reference, it is not easy to say what it was. A common opinion is the following: He who is washed – who is justified through the blood of the Lamb, needeth only to wash his feet – to regulate all his affections and desires; and to get, by faith, his conscience cleansed from any fresh guilt, which he may have contracted since his justification.” Adam Clarke

Jesus Washes the Disciples’ Feet

“Now before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having loved his own which were in the world, he loved them unto the end.
2 And supper being ended, the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, to betray him;
3 Jesus knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he was come from God, and went to God;
4 He riseth from supper, and laid aside his garments; and took a towel, and girded himself.
5 After that he poureth water into a bason, and began to wash the disciples’ feet, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith he was girded.
6 Then cometh he to Simon Peter: and Peter saith unto him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet?
7 Jesus answered and said unto him, What I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter.
8 Peter saith unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me.
9 Simon Peter saith unto him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head.
10 Jesus saith to him, He that is washed needeth not save to wash his feet, but is clean every whit: and ye are clean, but not all.
11 For he knew who should betray him; therefore said he, Ye are not all clean.
12 So after he had washed their feet, and had taken his garments, and was set down again, he said unto them, Know ye what I have done to you?
13 Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am.
14 If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another’s feet.
15 For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you.
16 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him.
17 If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them. – John 13:1-17

Those not happy prove they are not humble nor holy (John 13).

“If loving the person in front of you seems like too small of a ministry opportunity, you’ve forgotten the simplicity of the Gospel.” unknown

Jesus Washes the Disciples’ Feet as an Act of Final Sealing of His Mercy, His Will

“Before the feast – Namely, on Wednesday, in the paschal week. Having loved his own – His apostles, he loved them to the end – Of his life.” John Wesley

Adam Clarke writes:

“He loved them unto the end – Continued his fervent affection towards them to his latest breath, and gave them that convincing proof of it which is mentioned Joh_13:5. That the disciples alone are meant here every man must see.”

Of these cornerstone verses of John 13, F.B. Meyer writes:

“John 13:1-11

JESUS GLORIFIES HUMBLE SERVICE

In the Temple the laver preceded the brazen altar. It was kept filled with pure water for the constant washing of the priests; Exo_30:18-21; Lev_16:4. We cannot have fellowship with Christ at Calvary or on Olivet unless we draw near with our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.

The Synoptic Gospels tell us that on their way to the feast the disciples had yielded to contention and pride. It was needful that these should be put away, and our Lord’s love was equal to the occasion. He loved them to the end of His life and to the end of love. Only such love could have made saints and apostles out of such material.

Jesus began a work which has never ceased, and which will continue “till all the ransomed Church of God be saved to sin no more.” When we have contracted guilt, we have not to begin our whole life over again, but to go back to the place where we dropped the thread of obedience and begin there.”

May we never forget how merciful our LORD Jesus was to the woman at the well (John 4), the woman caught in the act of adultery (John 8), and the woman with the issue of blood (Luke 8).

It’s of interest to note how this 13th chapter of the glorious Gospel of John begins with Christ’s love to His disciples and closes with His command for them to “love one another” as He taught and personally demonstrated to them:

“A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. 35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.” John 13:34-35

“When you fall in love don’t you want to shout it from the rooftops? He, the man you are in love with, is all you talk about! Should be the same with Jesus! You want to tell everyone about this man, the Savior who saved your life! Just as the woman at the well did! She told the whole city. ‘Come, and see a man, which told me all the things that ever I did: is this not the Christ?’ John 4: 28-29.” Karen Cochran

Antichrist or Christ? [podcast]

Recorded at a fellowship in Colorado.

Who is truly reigning in my heart?

“But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me.” Luke 19:27

Am I an antichrist?

Are there professing Christians who have “the spirit of antichrist” reigning in their hearts, their personal lives?

“Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; 4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.” 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4

If I am sitting upon the throne of my own heart in this my temple (myself), I am an antichrist. God forbid!

Anti as in antichrist means in place of: It’s the “spirit of antichrist” working through Satan’s false ministers that robs the glory from Jesus Christ (2 Corinthians 11:12-15; Colossians 1:18; 2:8-10, 18-19; 1 John 4:1-3, etc.).

anti – a. Against, opposed to. b. Before, predating. c. Usurping, in place of.

“Deceived people have no idea that they have been deceived, so they fight those who attempt to direct them back to the truth of the gospel.” Jim Borge

Those not excited for Jesus to return simply love this fleeting world and are not ready to meet the KING! Jesus is coming

We know when “that spirit of antichrist” is working through a rebel when he speaks contrary to God’s Word (John 8:47; 1 John 4:3). “That spirit of antichrist” – anti (in place of) Christ is anything that contradicts what God’s Word says, working to subvert divinely stated truth while posing as Christ’s minister (2 Corinthians 11:12-15).

“That spirit of antichrist” is witnessed in the human agents, possessed by devils who make it all about something, anything but Christ. The emphasis is taken away from Jesus Christ (Colossians 2:18-19). They make it about the church, Zionism/Israel, a nation, a genealogical people, a mere pastor, a man or men, an organization, a creed, a fraternal order, etc. This becomes clearer as the word “antichrist” is broken down. Anti means in place of.

Read Colossians 1 and 2 each morning this week.

“Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. 2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: 3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world. 4 Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.” 1 John 4:1-4

“Fear hath Torment” – 100% Deliverance from all Fear! [podcast]

Perfect Love Casteth Out Fear [podcast]

Fear Stifles and Stains our Lives – “Fear hath Torment”

“Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.” Psalms 23:4

Fear, hides, it lurks, and it controls us until it is dealt with. It seems to me that we have little knowledge yet of how fear has controlled us the whole of our lives. Today is the day of salvation, deliverance from the evil of fear.

“How very little can be done under the spirit of fear.” Florence Nightingale

Fear stifles and robs.

One study Bible note says:

“Fear is a dark shadow that envelops us and ultimately imprisons us within ourselves. Each of us has been a prisoner of fear at one time or another – fear of rejection, misunderstanding, uncertainty, sickness, or even death. But we can conquer fear by using the bright liberating light of the Lord who brings salvation. If we want to dispel the darkness of fear, let us remember with the psalmist that “the Lord is my light and my salvation.”

“Fear hath torment.” The quality of life God intends you to enjoy with Him is spoiled by fear. “fear hath torment.” Did He provide the solution in Christ? Yes. His “perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment.” Notice below is this golden passage of Holy Writ that oneness with the LORD who “is love” is when all fear is vanquished from our lives (John 17). This disciple would like to invite and to encourage you to pour over this passage prayerfully and to make it part of your life from today forward. You will want to share it with others also.

“And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him. 17 Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world. 18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.” 1 John 4:16-18

You can’t conjure up boldness, conviction, valiancy. It must come out of the cross life, the crucified life with Christ – from which all fear is vanquished (Romans 6; 1 John 4:16-18). Then we know that “The righteous are bold as a lion.” (Proverbs 28:1)

Someone has rightly stated: “Fear is the currency of control.”

“O LORD, my strength, and my fortress, and my refuge in the day of affliction…” Jeremiah 16:19

The struggles and fallen sinful nature of this world should lay us at the feet of Christ. There are many things that can cause us to fear and yet, we run to our LORD who is our refuge and our fortress and we don’t run to the world for a mood drug or psychobabble, etc.

“The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.” Proverbs 18:10

Notice in the verse above that the God fearing man does not run to the world, to a mood drug, to a “fix” that mere sinful man offers, but rather He runs to the LORD!

We we are experiencing worrying, anxiety, and fear, that simply means that we need to repent and draw nigh to our God and He will draw nigh to us and all fear will be vanquished. Beware of the coping mechanisms beloved!

“For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.” 2 Timothy 1:7

It’s one thing to know this verse above and yet another to truly, diligently, daily be seeking the face of the LORD. Memorizing and meditating upon and declaring this one below has helped this lowly disciple immensely!

“Seek the LORD and his strength, seek his face continually.” 1 Chronicles 16:11

When a man truly fears the LORD, that man doesn’t run to the world to find a coping mechanism because that man seeks the LORD continually and is continually filled with His Holy Spirit and the corresponding fruit of the Spirit – love, joy, peace… (Galatians 5:22-23).

Why do we fear?

“People fear because their faith is in self, not in God. Therefore they try and meet their own needs. Matt. 6:33 says when we make God’s kingdom and His righteousness a priority He will meet our needs.” Karen Cochran

Read Psalm 1 every day this week! Pray before you begin beloved of the LORD …. and realize that He loves you more than you can possibly fathom!

The only way to know true love is to know God via the Son of His love – Jesus Christ – who in the greatest act of love ever, came and died for us, sinners.

“What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? 32 He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things? 33 Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God’s elect? It is God that justifieth. 34 Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us. 35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. 37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. 38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, 39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans 8:31-39

Here are 2 more passages that clearly reveal that the LORD loves His people immensely:

“How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them! 18 If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee.” Psalms 139:17-18

“Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not. 2 Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.” 1 John 3:1-2

MESSAGE:

“Can you guys pray for my anxiety, it’s amped up at the moment. Thank you so much.”

REPLY:

Who’s battling anxiety, fear? Divine prescription: Memorize Proverbs 1:33 and meditate on it. King James Bible as always. Also pour prayerfully over 1 John 4:16-18 and worship Him afresh beloved!!!! Jesus Christ is LORD. Write out Proverbs 1:33 (KJB) on an index card. Begin pouring over it, reading it prayerfully. Memorize it. Meditate upon it. As the song says, “ALL fear is gone”!

As the Hymn Says “ALL Fear is Gone”

Deliverance from all fear happens from the inside out according to 1 John 4:16-18 and Proverbs 1:33 etc.

ARE YOU bound by fear? What’s the source? Not God because “God hath NOT give us the spirit of fear.” (2 Timothy 1:7)

Denounce the fear verbally and ask God to make you one with Him (John 17), to fill you with His love which eradicates all fear 1 John 4:18 …. Also, in prayer, denounce all fear and never say “I am a worry wart” ever again. Memorize Proverbs 1:33 and 2 Timothy 1:7. Search, meditate upon, and speak God’s Word (Joshua 1:8).

Internalize Proverbs 1:33 today. God is going to change your life forever. Especially by memorizing Proverbs 1:33 !!!!

Love this:

“Fear hath torment” ….

Take, ingest these 2 GosPills: Proverbs 1:33; 1 John 4:18 all fear vanquished.

As we read in 1 John 4:16-18, we see that intimacy with the LORD is the only answer to man’s fear and such is available exclusively and only to the children of God. May we learn to kiss the waves of fear which slam us against the Rock of ages who alone can and will vanquish them!

IF I am not truly seeking the face of the LORD, engaging daily in the life-giving abiding relationship He desires, I am simply going through religious motions, have a hardened heart, and a mere “form of godliness.” (1 Chronicles 16:11; Psalms 27:4, 8; Philippians 3:10; 2 Timothy 3:5) | Seeking God

“The chains of love are stronger than the chains of fear.” William Gurnall

Fear’s only cure is the love of God – us being made one with Him (John 17; 1 John 4:16-18). Pouring prayerfully over John 17 and 1 John 4:16-18 is a life-changer! Thank YOU Jesus! Asking the LORD to make you ONE with Him goes to the center of why Jesus came! (John 17:3).

Studies reveal that the vast majority of things we fear never come to pass.

After promising specifically that He is always going to provide the necessities for His children, protect them, and nourish them, Jesus says:

“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. 34 Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.” Matthew 6:33-34

The Holy Spirit inspired the prophet Isaiah to pen these wonderful words:

“Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.” Isaiah 41:10

Fear is not of God but rather comes by an evil spirit – “the spirit of fear.“

“For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.” 2 Timothy 1:7

“We have to move out of our spiritual boxes and abandon the doubt, the guilt, and the fear that constrict our souls. There’s a wideness in GOD’S mercy.” Liza Young

WHO to Fear and Who not to Fear

“And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.” Matthew 10:28

Are Christians to Fear God?

“If you fear God, you really need fear nothing else.” Zac Poonen

Memory truth:

“Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.” Luke 10:19

Prayer is communing with the LORD which causes all fear to be vanquished.

“Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. 7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:6-7

“I’m not afraid of the devil. He can’t handle the One to whom I’m joined.” AW Tozer

Are you facing fear today? Perhaps you are afraid of losing your job, of developing cancer or being left by your spouse. At times all of us experience fear. But don’t allow fear to keep you from being used by God. He has kept you thus far; trust Him for the rest of the way.” Woodrow Kroll

“Worry is a cycle of inefficient thoughts whirling around a center of fear.” Corrie Ten Boom

“Fear is something that we’ve all struggled with at some point in our lives. Whether it’s the fear that comes with a bad report from a doctor or a low bank account, or a more nameless fear of people and life in general, it can steal our joy and life. But it’s not supposed to be that way! God wants us to “fear not.” If you’re trying to overcome fear in your life, I pray that these quotes and verses will give you encouragement, faith, and renewed strength!” unknown

God wants His children “quiet from fear of evil.” (Proverbs 1:33) Memorizing Proverbs 1:33 today from the King James Bible is a life changer.

The fear of evil is vanquished as we draw nigh to God in faith, truly trusting Him …

“But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil.” Proverbs 1:33

“We shall be quiet from the fear of evil, for no threatenings of evil shall penetrate into the high tower of God.” Hannah Whitall Smith

Seeking the LORD is always the answer. Getting delivered from “ALL” fear:

“I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.” Psalms 34:4

Notice here that one must seek the LORD for deliverance from fear.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, I come now to You in the name of Jesus Christ my Master, King, and Savior. LORD, please forgive my sin of unbelief and for not seeking Your holy face continually. Here and now I turn to You afresh, openly admitting my own sin in repentance LORD. I now confess my sin of self-idolatry, asking You to forgive and wash me afresh in Thy blood LORD Jesus. Please establish my life in You, grounded in the faith of Your beautiful Gospel and identify and remove all fear from my life other than the fear of You. I ask You to make me one with You LORD, allowing me to dwell in an ever-deepening oneness with You. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

"He that Loveth Pureness of Heart" [podcast]

IS YOUR HEART PURE BEFORE THE ALMIGHTY BELOVED? DO I truly love “pureness of heart”? “HE THAT LOVETH PURENESS OF HEART, for the grace of his lips the king shall be his friend.” Proverbs 22:11 Without a pure heart, obtained from seeking, worshiping, knowing, and obey God …. no one “shall see God.” Not one. “Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.” Matthew 5:8 If you or I have every word of the Bible memorized and die today with a heart that is defiled with sin, we’d bust hell wide open – and be trapped there irrevocably […]

Judgment to Come Necessitates the Crucified Life [podcast]

“But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.” 1 Corinthians 9:27 In light of “eternal judgment” (Hebrews 6:2), the apostle speaks here of his preparation for it. Paul knew that eternal damnation awaited him if he dared not keep under his body, to crucify the deeds of the body to “bring it into subjection” by the daily crucified life. Keeping under our bodies speaks of a continual essential. Keeping under means subduing the old man by crucifying it daily. “For if […]
