Jezebel’s Mantra

ALL JEZEBELS WILL BE ROARING – SCREAMING IN PAIN – IN THE RUTHLESS FLAMES OF ETERNAL DAMNATION! (Mark 9:43-49)

YOU a “liberated” or “empowered” woman? You liberated from God’s ordained order? You liberated from God’s will? You seeking an “education” so you can “be your own woman” and “empowered” to live as YOU wish? Pure rebellion! Jezebel is running rampant among those claiming to be following Christ. There will not be one jezebel is eternal glory! Titus 2:1-5

JEZEBELS could care less what God’s Word states about the role of women. No, they are lawless, fully self-centered and led by the lies they’ve been told by other jezebels. Regardless of what Scripture plainly states, these unrepentant dames are going to forge ahead in what they claim is the calling of “God” on their lives. They forge ahead in the face of clearly contradicting His Word.

“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.” 1 Timothy 2:11-12

DEAR VIRTUOUS woman of God, you are not a “strong woman” until you are full of the resurrection power of Christ through a crucified life (2 Corinthians 4:10-12). “Strong woman” is often heard used today by jezebels and is loaded with utter rebellion. Your identity is Christ and as His disciple you are weak so the grace of Christ is strong in you through the crucified life (2 Corinthians 12:9-10). You are NOT “independent!” No, you are completely dependent upon the LORD Jesus and the good, godly men and body of Christ around you as God has designed (Ephesians 5:21). The blessings of God come upon your life via this order and fellowship of Christ’s body!

DEAR LADIES, women of God …. Declare right now that the LORD made you to be HIS servant, an “helpmeet” to your husband (Genesis 2:18). THE DEVIL IS A LIAR. Where are those jezebel devils going to be on Judgment Day when you stand before your Maker and Judge to give account for how you lived – how you viewed and served your husband He gave you? Selah ladies, selah. WHERE O WHERE will all jezebels be? – eternal damnation in the lake of fire, with not one exception. There are SO VERY MANY jezebels operating in the church world, especially here online! Every one of them is going to hell and the lake of fire. Are you going to go with them or are you going to obey God’s order for your life? It’s time for you to huddle up with Jesus in prayer and the Word today, right now ANDDDD to establish divine truth in the hearts and lives of the younger women, now – which God commanded you to do (Titus 2:1-5). SHARE this post. Jezebel Unmasked!

As was the case in the Garden, Satan specifically targets the girls, the women – to derail them from God’s ordained purpose for the women (Genesis 2:18; 3:1-17; 1 Timothy 2:9-14; Titus 2:1-5; 1 Peter 3:1-7, etc.). Beware!

WHEN a woman attacks a man or seeks to rule over him or manipulate him, she further proves she is a jezebel, a hell bound rebel, a lost soul.

“Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. 12 But I suffer (allow) not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.” 1 Timothy 2:11-12

A WOMAN leading a church fellowship? Nope. A women leading her household? Nope. Jezebel Exposed!

GOD is calling for a revival in “stand by your man” godly womanhood! The authentic woman of God is truly crucified with christ and therefore doing his stated will in worship and in her family life-fulfilling the role of wife and mother!

JEZEBEL KNOWS NO BOUNDS: The jezebel, feminist movement attacks men, males who earn more than female as if they did something wrong!!! This is a direct attack on God, men, women, and children – the family unit. This is Satan’s work saints. Jesus told us he’s come “to steal, to kill, and to destroy.” (John 10:10) Be not deceived. God ordained that the man, the husband, the father, earn the money (primarily) to take care of his WIFE and children (1 Timothy 5:8). Beware and be thankful to the LORD for the godly men, breadwinners who provide for their wives and families.

The LORD created the family and the role of each member. Those who attack the family unit, attack God and are under divine judgment!

“God setteth the solitary in families: he bringeth out those which are bound with chains: but the rebellious dwell in a dry land.” Psalms 68:6

God Fearing Manhood

There is ORDER in the house of God. Roles. Study it! Learn what God’s Word says.

Dear Jezebel, stop trying to minister to men – which you are forbidden to do – and go home and love and serve your husband and children! Repent now. 1 Timothy 2:12; Titus 2:1-5, etc.

The beauty the LORD’s creation includes the complimentary uniqueness between the male and female (Genesis 1:26-28). May we celebrate this and be strengthened in the role for which He made each of us.

God created men and women with distinct roles which compliment each other.

GOD’s Word tells us to GET TO THE ROOT OF THIS!

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

BEWARE OF THE SURFACE LEVEL DEVILS! THEY ARE OFFERING YOU FALSE HOPE! THAT INCLUDES 99% OF “PASTORS” TODAY! Honesty and repentance are a must!

SATAN is behind the whole jezebel movement which continues. This is how he is destroying our society by destroying the family unit. Ever notice how nearly EVERYTHING is pointed toward helping the “poor, oppressed, under-privileged women and girls” with nearly nothing, no programs to help boys and men? No, in fact, men are viciously, ruthlessly attacked with unjust “child support” which is much to do about states stealing money while they break the men in order to make them powerless. This is actually a specifically stated part of Satan’s new world order. Just look at all the PINK causes. But where’s the BLUE causes? Have you seen anyone marching in the streets wearing BLUE ribbons lately to raise awareness or money for boys and men???? Probably not. Certainly the vile, man-hating jezebel mobs wouldn’t ever march for anything but their own wicked, self-serving cause! Saints, let’s keep all things in the order of God’s Word and not be swept away in the deep deceptions of this late hour before Christ’s return. PINK marchers are for Satan’s dupes, not God fearing disciples of Jesus.

Again, women have MORE rights than men already: Think: A woman can go abort (murder) her and the fathers innocent baby with no consent needed from the dad. Case closed.

GODLY WOMEN, with no exception, agree with and live according to God’s Word concerning HIS non-negotiable role for the women!

The unchanging divine purpose for the making of the woman and for which every woman shall give account:

“And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.” Genesis 2:18

Satan’s marketing outreach to women, calling them to worship at the altar of self, reaches from A to Z in society in exposure!

“Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:” 1 Peter 5:8

“I Am Woman Hear Me Roar” is a fist shaken in the face of a holy God. It’s the mantra of all Satan’s jezebels who will be cast violently and irrevocably into the trash heap of the lake of fire! There will be no jezebel in Heaven, not one! God made the woman to be the helpmeet of the man and never to rule over him.

It’s only when we are weak in self that Christ is strong in us! (2 Corinthians 12:9-10)

Have you noticed…..WE see so many “strong woman” type quotes/graphics but we see no cross in these messages but rather self-strength, self-medicating, self-serving cause, which is against Scripture’s message. No cross = no Gospel! False. Beware. Jesus never said to esteem your wicked self but rather to deny and crucify it! Jezebel is alive and well! Luke 9:23-24; 2 Corinthians 4:10-12; Galatians 2:20, etc.

Every woman to ever live on this planet will give full and personal account of their life to the Almighty who assigned their role to be a helper of men, not a dominator or ruler over men.

Dear godly man: The strength, the condition of the manhood determines the power of the ministry. The cross.

“Give not thy strength (virtue, valor, goods, etc.) unto women, nor thy ways to that which destroyeth kings.” Proverbs 31:3

WARNING: THERE will be no allowance for jezebels in Heaven. Among godly men and woman, jezebels are swiftly manifested, rebuked, called out, and given space to repent or be immediately vanquished! Jesus addressed jezebel and the Ahabs who allow such in the New Testament era. This following passage this disciples encourages the reader to poor prayerfully over and continue to go back to in order to see from the perspective of the KING of His kingdom:

“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. 21 And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not. 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. 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. 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.” Revelation 2:20-24

Men who allow their wives to rule of them and therefore go around correcting other men, are pure Ahabs who will be judged.

Men who are in the cross, living the crucified life, will always manifest jezebels and heretics! Bam. Jesus says to “Rejoice.” (Matthew 5:10-12)

ONLY AHABS – SPINELESS MORAL COWARDS WHO REFUSE TO STAND ON GOD’S WORD – ESCAPE TO SCORN OF JEZEBEL

DEAR JEZEBEL, does your husband know you are running around correcting and trying to teach other men? ….. We know this, he’s an Ahab, otherwise you wouldn’t be doing any such thing – but rather tending to your own husband and household! (1 Timothy 2:11-12)

“Stupid women, do not realize the joy of being a help meet, oh boy, see Women need to give the pants back to the man, then their covering would be intact, Father Honors women who Honor Him first, than their man…we gals came from the man, but oh boy, the girls are gunna freak at this, but I do as it is written, and proverbs 31 does apply today as well as Ephesians, even God created the man first, then later we are built from his rib, so yeah.” Cheryl Anne Sedler

The born again virtuous woman rebels against Satan’s feminist witches and witchcraft.

GODLY women find comfort under the leadership of Christ who non-negotiably set the order and roles of men and women. Sir, are you that man or are you an Ahab?

EVERY single woman will give full account of her life on this planet and how she either obeyed or disobeyed the divine order for a woman (Romans 14:10). ARE you in order or out of God’s order? Time to cease listening to the bombarding message of this epidemic, jezebel generation! ALL jezebels who have died are roaring for torment in hell-with no possibility ever or escaping! In fact, not only is their sentence irrevocable, with hell they will be later “cast into the lake of fire.” (Revelation 20:11-15)

DID THAT man you falsely call “pastor” rebuke or entertain you last Sunday?

God loved you enough to give you free will, choice-and if you don’t obey Him He will cast you irrevocably into eternal damnation (Matthew 7:21; Luke 12:4-5).

YOU need the LORD! He doesn’t need you!

WITCH WARNING: Discerning Jezebels …..

Many a professing Christian woman is running all over social media claiming she is being “led by the Holy Spirit” while believing and promoting things that are clearly contradictory of His stated truth – in His written Word. IF you believe and claim you are being “led by the Holy Spirit” to see something from a perspective that contradicts God’s WRITTEN WORD which is His final authority, His “MORE SURE word of prophecy,” you are being led by a demon! (2 Peter 1:16-21) Repent now!

YOU have no ministry. Jesus does and He will only conduct that ministry through obedience, crucified vessels! (Galatians 2:20; 2 Corinthians 4:10-12)

Ahabs

Men: EVERY single MAN will give full account of his life on this planet and how he either obeyed or disobeyed the divine order for a man (Romans 14:10). ARE you in order or out of God’s order? Time to cease listening to the bombarding message of this epidemic, Ahab generation! ALL Ahabs who have died are screaming for torment in hell-with no possibility ever or escaping! In fact, not only is their sentence irrevocable, with hell they will be later “cast into the lake of fire.” (Revelation 20:11-15)

MEN who serve God live according to what God’s Word states concerning the man!

The unchanging divine command to godly men:

“And he said, Throw her down. So they threw her down: and some of her blood was sprinkled on the wall, and on the horses: and he trode her under foot.” 2 Kings 9:33

The first class of sinner listed to be cast into the lake of fire is “the fearful.” (Revelation 21:8)

GOD is calling for a revival in godly manhood!

GOD fearing men don’t allow jezebels to function-to teach or correct men!

The men who allow this out of order generation of jezebels are even more responsible! THAT’s the primary sinful devils JESUS is calling out in Thyatira (Revelation 2:20-24)

AHABS are weak, unrepentant, ungodly men who facilitate, allow women to rule over them and to therefore allow women to operate outside of God’s stated order in the gathering of the saints! Repent you spineless wonder or you will go to the lake of fire with the jezebels you enable! (Revelation 2:20-24) There will be no Ahab in Heaven, not one!

QUESTION ASKED:

“Can a woman teach a man in meekness?”

REPLY:

Share gently… not in a usurping fashion is the governing principle put forth in 1 Timothy 2:11-12). The body of Christ is to “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly.” (Colossians 3:16). Men can learn much of the LORD from women yet it’s out of order for a woman to take a corrective, teaching position over a man.

“I’ve never heard preaching about the Jezebel spirit at Church!! ..thank God I know about the Jezebel spirit from my Bible study I go to!! the truth is heard and taught there! I was told alot of Preachers don’t Preach the truth because the members would chew them out! I believe if this post was preached in MOST Churches today…it would cause a storm!! and you’d see alot of empty pews!! I am so thankful for you Todd!! we need to hear the truth and you have no fear!!…this post is spot on!!” Gina Mondello

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.

John 16:33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

Compassion in Light of Christ's Soon Return [video]

PRAYER: Holy Father, please change us to the very core of our being…. that we might see the lost souls around us as precious to You! In Jesus’ name, amen. “Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain. 8 Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh. 9 Grudge not one against another, brethren, lest ye be condemned: behold, the judge standeth before the door.” James […]

When God Says to STOP PRAYING! [podcast]

Reconciling with God and other Saints

“He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law (the Word), even his prayer shall be abomination.” Proverbs 28:9

Those who do not love God enough to seek Him in the Word, to learn, and to obey Him, will not be heard by Him.

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

In general, because God is “Holy, holy, holy,” when there is sin, God will not answer prayers – until the sinner repents and reconciles with the LORD and any person involved as needed (Isaiah 6:3; Revelation 4:8; Proverbs 28:9, etc.).

“And the LORD said unto Joshua, Get thee up; wherefore liest thou thus upon thy face? 11 Israel hath sinned …” Joshua 7:10-11

In other words, God said to Joshua “Why are you seeking My face, praying to me, talking to me, when there is sin in the camp? Get the sin our of the camp and then you can approach Me in prayer.”

STOP PRAYING AND LEAVE IT!

God is not going to bless our lives unless we are willing to sincerely admit our sins, repent and confess them, and make amends (restitution) with anyone we’ve harmed. In the divine economy, there’s no such thing as being right with God when you’ve done another person wrong, haven’t repented, and haven’t made amends for what you’ve done. Such a person will be outside of the will and blessings of God until he makes things right with God and man.

God is not hearing the prayers or worship of any person who has done someone else wrong and refuses to make restitution (Matthew 5:23-24).

“Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath aught against thee; Leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; FIRST be reconciled to thy brother, and THEN come and offer thy gift.” Matthew 5:23-24

God will not answer the prayer of any person who does not honor and obey His Word and if a person has an outstanding offense He wants them to clear up these matters (Proverbs 28:9, 13).

Here Jesus gave us the instruction to stop praying! What!? Someone may be thinking “Todd, are you being sacrilegious now!? What is your problem brother!?” Keep reading okay.

“If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me:” Psalms 66:18

“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

According to the Son of God, just when (if ever) should the believer stop praying? When he remembers that a brother has “aught against” him. Yes, I know this may raise eyebrows to say that Jesus told us to stop praying, but He certainly did. That’s what we read of His very words in Matthew 5.

He instructs us not to wait for the other person to come to you. Go to them and make peace. Work things out so that neither of your relationships with God will be in any way hindered. Forgive. Seek restitution and forgiveness. The Christian life is all about relationship – vertically first and them horizontally.

Jesus is saying here: “Stop praying or doing any form of worship until you have first done all you can possibly do to make peace with that person you had strife or misunderstanding with, offended, or wounded – the person that still has aught against you, whose heart isn’t yet clear in the matter. Your prayers and any form of supposed worship will not be honored in Heaven until you take care of this matter. Since I am holy I require certain things of you and one of them is that you do your best to keep unity with others, especially My people. Remember how I told you to love one another and to treat others as you wish to be treated? I love you and want clear communion with you and am simply not going to allow you to have a clear conscience until you work things out with that other person who has aught against you. Remember that though I love you, I care about others as much as I care about you. Get that human relationship right first and then come and seek My face in worship and we shall commune.”

God forgives us through Christ’s perfect sacrifice and as we choose to give it out to others! WHO might you have aught against in your heart today beloved?

As a believer, the LORD holds me personally accountable to facilitate reconciliation and peace in others when there is a rift and no matter whose fault it is (Matt. 5:23-24).

First and foremost we must realize that when we sin it is against the One who is “holy, holy, holy” (Isa. 6:3; Rev. 4:8). After that fact, we at times sin against or offend men (James 3:1). So, when we have wrongly offended someone who is created in the image of God, we should first confess that sin to the LORD and then do whatever it takes within our power to make it right with the person.

“Withhold not good from them to whom it is due, when it is in the power of thine hand to do it. 28 Say not unto thy neighbour, Go, and come again, and to morrow I will give; when thou hast it by thee.” Proverbs 3:27-28

“Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another. 26 Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath: 27 Neither give place to the devil.” Ephesians 4:25-27

Child of God, are you aware of anyone who might be upset with you for something you have done or they thought you did? Is anyone offended at you?

This writer is no stranger to wronging people, but is learning to follow this simple truth in Matthew 5, making sure to openly and transparently facilitate healing in those I have brought hurt to or who are offended at me for any legitimate reason.

Granted, we are going to offend people at times when it is not our fault. I am not talking about that. I am talking about when it is our fault or the situation is questionable or a close call.

Have you been offended? Have you ever found yourself in a situation where someone else held the key to your closure, your healing? Think back in your life: Have you ever needed someone else’s help in getting free in your heart from something concerning a situation?

Jesus called the divine Person of the Holy Spirit “the Comforter” (Jn. 14:26; 15:26; 16:7). God is all-powerful and can help us walk through a heart-rending ordeal where another person has hurt us and is unwilling to partake of the healing process according to the Word/instructions of the LORD. This He can and will do, yet He holds that other person responsible for doing their part – “Leave there thy gift before the altar – FIRST be reconciled to thy brother.”

Those made righteous by the blood of Christ are to do all in their power to facilitate healing in others.

“If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.” Romans 12:18

Jesus Christ came to make captives free and such freedom is the desire of all who follow Him. They desire also to see people set free and do their part when it is in the power of their hand to help (Prov. 3:27).

“Bear ye one another’s burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.” Galatians 6:2

When need be, we are to work hard to make sure God’s peace abides among the saints.

“Endeavouring (working hard) to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.” Ephesians 4:3

“Endeavouring” – it’s hard work at times to keep unity in the body. Have you noticed that things happen that need attention, patience, humility, admission where wrong has been done, etc.?

It is our personal responsibility to keep schisms out of Christ’s body as much as it is in our power.

“That there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another. And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member be honoured, all the members rejoice with it. Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.” 1 Corinthians 12:25-27

The LORD promises us that He commands His precious peace where brethren dwell together in unity.

“Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity! It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron’s beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments; As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there (in the unity of believers) the LORD commanded the blessing, even life for evermore.” Psalms 133:1-3

The person who is truly born again cares for the body of Christ. Peace among the saints is where God’s blessing abides.

“We know that we have passed from death unto life (we know we are saved), BECAUSE we love the brethren.” 1 John 3:14

Without love we are nothing (1 Cor. 13). Divine love, authentically demonstrated in our lives, is the earmark fruit of the Heaven-bound disciple. There are no exceptions – “He that loveth not knoweth not God” (1 Jn. 4:8). If such charitable love does not presently appear in our lives, we should consider going before the throne of grace and making things right with God (repentance). The genuinely born again person is filled with God’s love and teachable in the precepts of the LORD. When he discovers a previously unknown (to him) truth, he swiftly hearkens and obeys. Remember, God’s eternal kingdom and the terms for entrance into it are based on the LORD’s terms and not any individual’s. Either we meet the terms and conditions or we shall be found without (Matt. 7:21-23; Lk. 6:46-49; 13:24-30; 1 Jn. 2:3-5; Rev. 2-3).

“We know that we have passed from death unto life (we know we are saved – been brought from spiritual death to spiritual life), BECAUSE we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death. Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him. Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.” 1 John 3:14-16

Child of God, do you have a key that would help another get free? If you possess the key that would assist in obtaining their freedom, the LORD holds you personally responsible to use it to help unlock that person’s heart and assist in their returning to a heart that is right with God, free from anything that hinders that relationship.

“Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath.” Ephesians 4:26

Don’t let the sun go down upon that which you can do to cause reconciliation in Christ’s body for which He bled. Leave your prayer closet and any and all worship and go get things right with that person the LORD may be placing on your heart. You will be glad you obeyed the LORD in this.

You see, if we truly have an intimate and saving relationship with Christ, we realize that nothing could be more important to us – and others. Knowing Jesus is everything. Armed with this knowledge and moved upon by the Holy Spirit, we are to be compelled to help others in their relationship with Jesus in any way we possibly can.

PRAYER: Father in Heaven, thank You for sending Your only begotten Son Jesus to live and die for me – for all of my many sins. This moment, I turn my life to Thee O God – asking Your merciful forgiveness on my sin of departing from You. Right this instant I ask You to please be my first love LORD Jesus! Bless this heart with sensitivity and a deep conviction for Your truth. Please allow this heart to have godly conviction! Please bless this life You graciously gave lift others to You and help them in any and every way I have opportunity. I am all Yours and You are all mine my LORD. Quicken my heart in any matter that You wish me to make amends with another person. Right now I now humble myself under Your mighty hand and ask You to use me to help facilitate peace between You and others Jesus, and in Your body. Please bless Your body to live in Your love, and Your truth and in peace with You and one another. In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

PEACE with GOD

“For in Many Things We Offend All” [podcast]

“Endeavouring (working hard) to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.” Ephesians 4:3 Can we be honest for a moment? Have you ever wanted God to just rip your tongue out? CAN YOU RELATE to this? …… As Christ’s followers and therefore members of His one body, we all have sinned and have and perhaps still say things we shouldn’t which wound others. “The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.” Proverbs 18:8 Words can seriously wound. Word are containers of something or the […]

Answered Prayer? WHY?

WHY Does God Answer Prayer? On What Basis Does Our Access to Him Come? Where do we see the church doing 24 hours in the New Testament other than when Peter was locked up Acts 12? God answers prayers due to the name of Jesus, not because people pray around the clock…. sounds like works instead of faith which God requires, which pleases God (John 14:13-14; 16:23-24; Hebrews 11:6). There’s no end to the phony gimmicks that Satan is using his human agents to use in replacing Jesus Christ from the center of salvation! There is no salvation without Jesus Christ! […]
