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

Laodicea: How Jesus Instructs the Backslidden to be Restored

Jesus’ Letter to the Church at Laodicea

“And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;

15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.

16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.

17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:

18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.

19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.

20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.

21 To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.

22 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.

The cross, the crucified life is the cure to the curse of sin—sin dominating our lives.

Romans 6

Inflation is part of the judgment of God upon a wicked people, nation. We see such in Sodom and in Laodicea (Ezekiel 16:49-59; Romans 1; Revelaton 3:14-22).

“It appears that in this scarcity each might be able to obtain a bare subsistence by his daily labor; but a man could not, in such cases, provide for a family.” Adam Clarke

Your money doesn’t go far….. inflation

“Revelation 6 describes the opening of the first six seals, which represent God’s judgment, often called the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. The third seal, broken by a “black horse,” is interpreted to show hyper-inflation and famine, where a day’s wage (a denarius) buys only a quart of wheat. The judgment includes a command to preserve the oil and wine, which some interpret as luxury goods, while essential food becomes scarce and expensive.”

“6:5, 6 In obedience to the third living creature, a rider holding a set of scales came forth on a black horse. This represents famine, which often follows war. A voice in the middle of the four living creatures announced that wheat and barley were being sold at prohibitive prices. The scales were used to weigh the rationed grain and were thus a symbol of famine. The expression do not harm the oil and the wine is difficult. Some say that these were the food of the poor. If they were staple items, then they must be protected in order to preserve life. It seems more likely, however, that the luxury items of the rich are contemplated here: historically, even in famine the rich can get some luxuries.” Believer’s Bible Commentary

The only thing needed to go to hell is to not be on fire for Jesus—to be “lukewarm” (Revelation 3:15-16).

Jesus instructed the Laodicean church… to obtain, to “buy of me….

“3:18 The people were counseled to buy from the Lord gold refined in the fire. This may mean divine righteousness, which is bought without money or price (Isa_55:1) but received as a gift through faith in the Lord Jesus. Or it may mean genuine faith, which when tested in the fire, results in praise, honor, and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ (1Pe_1:7).

Also the people were counseled to buy white garments, that is, practical righteousness in everyday life. And they should anoint their eyes with eye salve, that is, gain true spiritual vision through the enlightenment of the Holy Spirit. This counsel was especially appropriate, since Laodicea was known as a center for banking, textiles, and medicines—especially eye salve.” Believer’s Bible Commentary

“Revelation 3:18
I counsel thee – O fallen and deceived soul, hear Jesus! Thy case is not hopeless. Buy of me.
Gold tried in the fire – Come and receive from me, without money and without price, faith that shall stand in every trial: so gold tried in the fire is here understood. But it may mean pure and undefiled religion, or that grace or Divine influence which produces it, which is more valuable to the soul than the purest gold to the body. They had before imaginary riches; this alone can make them truly rich.
White raiment – Holiness of heart and life.
Anoint thine eyes – Pray for, that ye may receive, the enlightening influences of my Spirit, that ye may be convinced of your true state, and see where your help lies.” Adam Clarke

Warning

“Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.” Revelation 16:15

Coming forth as Purified Gold

“But he knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold.” Job 23:10

To “come forth as gold” refers to the finished product, where gold has been purified of all its impurities.

“That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:” 1 Peter 1:7

“The fining pot is for silver, and the furnace for gold: but the LORD trieth the hearts.” Proverbs 17:3

Idolatry is Sin

Putting, having anything or anyone before Christ in our lives is the soul damning sin of idolatry. Such a person has rejected Christ for something, anything else.

One such idol, one such cause today is patriotism for one’s earthly country. See Hebrews 11:14-16.

SO, you are fighting to save America (impossible) and not see souls saved for and by Jesus? Yet you claim to be following Christ who said “I MUST be about my Father’s business”? See Luke 2:49. You are deceived and in need of repentance before it’s too late. You left your “first love” and are in sin, in darkness (Revelation 2:4-5).

“And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits. 33And they that understand among the people shall instruct many: yet they shall fall by the sword, and by flame, by captivity, and by spoil, many days. 34 Now when they shall fall, they shall be holpen with a little help: but many shall cleave to them with flatteries. 35 And some of them of understanding shall fall, to try them, and to purge, and to make them white, even to the time of the end: because it is yet for a time appointed.” Daniel 11:32-35

“Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand.” Daniel 12:10

PRAYER: Father in Jesus’ name, please grant to my heart Your gift of repentance and the deep desire to have Your righteousness, to not be deceived by sin, Satan, or counterfeits and false teachers. Please forgive all my sins afresh, here and now by Your precious blood LORD Jesus. Unite my heart to fear Your name. Fill me with Your Holy Ghost and use me LORD. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Eyesalve to See

“Christian Soldier persevere. It’s about time for Jesus to come.” RN WHY did the LORD give us physical eyes? Protection. And this is why He wishes to grant us spiritual eyes. We cannot ever fake God out. We cannot deceive the Almighty or short His system – which begins with repenting. It’s only then that He opens our eyes to see which brings protection. We can’t be protected from the devouring wolves He often warns us to beware of unless we can SEE or discern them! We need the “eyesalve” that God alone can give us! When Jesus spoke to […]

If someone’s love toward God’s people has waxed cold, it’s only because their love for the LORD first waxed cold (Matthew 24:10-14). Today is the best day to repent and return to the LORD. “And then shall many be offended, and shall […]

“You Who are Troubled Rest with Us” [podcast]

Many instill fear in Christ’s saints concerning these last days. Paul says: “You Who are Troubled Rest with Us”

“Rest with us” because Justice is Coming

2 Thessalonians 1:3-10

3 We are bound to thank God always for you, brethren, as it is meet, because that your faith groweth exceedingly, and the charity of every one of you all toward each other aboundeth;

4 So that we ourselves glory in you in the churches of God for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that ye endure:

The Judgment at Christ’s Coming

5 Which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that ye may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer:

6 Seeing it is a righteous thing with God to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you;

7 And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels,

8 In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:

9 Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power;

10 When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day.

Divine “vengeance” is coming “vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:” (v8)

Remember, while He instructed us not “avenge,” He also promised that “Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.”

“Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.” Romans 12:19

We shall rejoice to see the LORD retribution come upon the wicked.

“The righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the vengeance: he shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked. 11 that a man shall say, 11 1 So that a man shall say, Verily there is a reward for the righteous: verily he is a God that judgeth in the earth.” Psalms 58:10-11

The Happenings just before Christ’s Soon Return

Luke 21:25-28

“And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; 26 Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. 27 And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. 28 And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.” Luke 21:25-28

Being Prepared for His Return

Luke 21:34-36

“And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares. 35 For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth. 36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.” Luke 21:34-36

Walking unwavering with and suffering with Christ and His body now – as we look forward to being with Him!

“For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.” Romans 8:18

The LORD knows all before it happens and He’s not surprised of anything. God is going to use all these things to conform His people to Christ. Remember, all things are not good but God takes them and uses them to conform us to Christ, to be “crucified with Christ.” (Galatians 2:20).

“And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. 29 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 8:28-29

This truth has never been so relevant saints of Christ and the signs of the season of His return are at hand. He’s coming for you precious one!!!! Rescue mission!!! The Return of Heaven’s KING

May God allow us to preach in such a way as to cause His people to begin to be homesick for Heaven to be with Him.

“But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.” 1 Corinthians 2:9

I wonder how full our hearts will be as we become nourished up in His Word concerning Heaven. Will our hearts not burst forth and be filled with excitement, overflowing with joy like before we go on a vacation, the anticipation filling our hearts as we eagerly await being with our glorious Savior and Father? Read John 14:1-6 and Revelation 21.

Calling on the name above all names today. He’s the Maker and Controller of His whole universe and He’s coming back soon to retake control of it all – to decisively, violently put down all of His enemies both demonic and human (Colossians 1:16-17; 2 Thessalonians 1:7-10; Revelation 19:11-16).

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.

Our LORD Jesus is coming to establish His perfect Government on His earth. Stand by. Occupy. Rejoice. Look up. “Your redemption draweth nigh.” (Luke 21:28).

“For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. 7 Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.” Isaiah 9:6-7

We can be sure that mankind is fallen and cannot solve his own problem – which is sin against His Maker. Only the Prince of Peace, our LORD Jesus, can do so…. and He will (Isaiah 9:6-7).

“Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.” Luke 2:14

He is going to crush His enemies under His feet (Romans 16:20; 2 Thessalonians 1:7-10; Revelation 19:11-16; 1 Corinthians 15:25, 27).

PRAYER: Holy Father, in the name of Jesus, please break me, cause me to be truly poor in spirit with a humble, contrite heart of flesh. Please grant a deep compassion in me dear LORD Jesus as You conform me to Your holy image in the crucified life. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

"To Wait for His Son from Heaven" [podcast]

Waiting for His Son from Heaven “For they themselves shew of us what manner of entering in we had unto you, and how ye turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God; 10 And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come.” 1 Thessalonians 1:9-10 “But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.” 1 Corinthians 2:9 I […]

Abiding

Humility. Surrender. Sobriety. Restoration. Vigilance. [podcast]

“Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time: 7 casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you. 8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: 9 whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world. 10 But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.” 1 Peter 5:6-10

“Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. 15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. 16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.” Hebrews 4:14-16

“But this man, because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood. 25 Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them. 26 For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens.” Hebrews 7:24-26

May God bless you and I with this child-like disposition, heart! Please do it in us dear LORD, in Jesus’ name.

7 Sayings of Jesus on the Cross [podcast]

What Final Statements Did Jesus Make on the Cross and What Did They Mean? Our LORD Jesus Christ said 7 things while as He was offering His body and precious, sinless blood to buy us back to God.

He was shedding His blood to Re-deem (buy us back) and that’s what Jesus did for “the whole world” when He died on the cross, was buried, and raised again from the dead (1 Corinthians 15:1-4; 1 John 2:2).
