“I needed to listen to this podcast today. Thank you. What A W. Tozer said was powerful. The last year in a half God has broken me very deeply. I haven’t understood it all but I have had to give up things in me I have hung onto. I am only lately seeing through the process how he has changed me and is making me more like Jesus! And I can now thank him for the pain. God’s goodness to me!” Karen

“I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live: 20 That thou mayest love the LORD thy God, and that thou mayest obey his voice, and that thou mayest cleave unto him: for he is thy life, and the length of thy days: that thou mayest dwell in the land which the LORD sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.” Deuteronomy 30:19-20

Who puts men in bondage? Who makes men free? (John 10:10) WHO WILL YOU SERVE? WHO WILL YOU REJECT? There’s no neutral ground. Jesus says “He that is not with me is against me” (Matthew 12:30).

God gives all men the choice. Each man must choose – either Satan or Jesus.

Satan is the great liar, false accuser, usurper, blinder, murderer, devourer, deceiver, destroyer, and enslaver (Isaiah 14:12-15; John 8:44; 10:10a; 2 Corinthians 4:4; 1 Peter 5:8; Revelation 12:10, etc.). Jesus Christ is the Great Shepherd, Creator, Redeemer, and Liberator who gave His life for His people and exclusively gives them life “more abundantly” here and eternally.

“The thief (Satan) cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.” John 10:10

The work of SATAN is seen in these three operations – and everywhere you find them. Any person involved in stealing, killing, and/or destroying, in any fashion, is a child of Satan, period.

Obeying God’s Word Alone Makes One Free John (8:31-32, 36). Only those who adhere to His truth experience the liberty, freedom, and the blessings of God.

The truth makes no one free until they repent and obey it (John 8:31-32). If the truth isn’t making you free from sin, it can only be because you are not in the truth and obeying it.

IF the truth isn’t making you free from sin, you are not in the truth and are hell bound!

“Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; 32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. … If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.” John 8:31-32, 36 

SEEING a lot of the devil’s agents in our midst? JUST READ GOD’S WORD FOR YOURSELF as He told you to do beloved (2 Timothy 2:15).

Many if not most pastors today are quite biblically illiterate. Beware. Know God’s Word for yourself or you WILL be deceived – without exception (Isaiah 9:16; 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12; 2 Timothy 2:15). ALL who truly know and love Jesus are diligently seeking His truth, daily – with no exception. Those who are not “valiant for the truth” of God eliminate themselves from Christ’s eternal kingdom (Jeremiah 9:3). They are turned over to “strong delusion” and deceived and will be “damned” (2 Thessalonians 2:9-12).

If you are not in the truth you are not in Christ and are hell bound.

You cannot and will not be protected if you refuse to obey the truth (Proverbs 30:5; 2 Thessalonians 2:10-12).

Are you a glutton for the truth? Are you “valiant for the truth”? Jeremiah 9:3

IF you don’t authentically love the truth, aren’t humble, aren’t willing to change, you are a foolish virgin who will be shut out of Christ’s eternal kingdom! Repent now. (Matthew 18:3-4; 25:1-3)

Have you noticed that when some people don’t like biblical truth, they say “that’s not Christian”? This is due to them serving a false god they’ve made up in their own unrepentant fallen image (2 Timothy 4:2-4). So it’s “not Christian” to speak God’s Word? Explain that please… or better yet, repent, get saved for real, and get into God’s Word – allowing Him to speak for Himself. God defines Himself to us in His Word and we must let the Almighty speak for Himself if we will be His (Romans 3:3-4; 2 Timothy 3:15-17, etc.).

“The majority have been deceived so badly, even when Scripture tells us over and over again about the preachers of false doctrine! It seems that the majority just like to feel comfortable listening to their preacher once a week instead of digging deep and searching the Scriptures for truth!” S.

Un-repentant, sin-justifying compromisers want to act like we don’t have a Bible – to deny that God, the Judge, has spoken. So these children of Satan attempt to shut down the messengers of truth! Steam roll them with God’s Word and authority saints! SMH What ever we read in the Bible is from the JUDGE and if you don’t believe that, you are “not of God” according to Christ (John 8:47).

DID THE LORD lie to us about the great falling away just before His return… and the great deception perpetrated by “MANY false prophets”? See Matthew 24:3-5, 11, 24; 2 Thessalonians 2. Are you calling Jesus and His apostles liars?

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

Let’s get a Gospel clue saints: The soft-peddling, half-truth cowards who “man” most pulpits are nothing but weakling rebels. If they were men of God they’d fearlessly preach the whole Truth of God as He has mandated that we do! (See Acts 20:20, 27; 2 Timothy 4:24-4; Jude 3, etc.)

God is not a formula. Either you walk with Him on His terms or the fruit of your life will be unrest, not love, joy, or peace. Beware of those who don’t teach the whole original Gospel with the divinely given conditions. Jesus says that a man must repent and abide in Him, taking up the cross daily (Luke 9:23-24; John 14:21-23; 15, etc.).

Who did God tell us shows forth His righteousness in this dark world? “He that speaketh truth sheweth forth righteousness: but a false witness deceit” (Proverbs 12:17).

Telling, speaking the truth ISSSS love ! (Proverbs 27:5-6; Ephesians 4:15) If hearing the truth is what makes men free, how shall they be forgiven and free if they don’t hear the truth via Christ’s body? (John 8:31-31, 36; Romans 10:14, 17)

Brother Charles Pray writes: “I too, was once there in that dark cold place called prison! But nothing like the prison we all live in called ‘sin’ which has had many of us bound in chains spiritually. God has freed us from ALL bondage of sin when we go to the cross and receive Him in repentance as our Lord and Savior. We can read in the King James Bible in Ezra 7:26 – ‘And whosoever will not do the law of thy God, and the law of the king, let judgment be executed speedily upon him, whether it be unto death, or to banishment, or to confiscation of goods, or to imprisonment.’ We can also look at The King James Bible in Leviticus 24:12- ‘And they put him in ward, that the mind of the LORD might be shewed them.’ Here are a few Scriptures you can look up on your own and study in the King James Bible: Psalms 68: 5-6; Isaiah 61: 1-3; Matthew 25: 34-40. Always remember it is the Lord who sets the captives free. Praise the Lord for the great things He hath done and will continue to do through us as willing servants of His Word. Amen!”

No one will ever get set free till they get honest and repent. Luke 8:15; Proverbs 28:13

PRAYER: Holy Father, in Jesus’ name, please forgive my sins against You and how I’ve not sought You with my whole heart. Please break me and cause my conscience to be captive to You, to Your truth. Unite my heart to fear Thy name LORD. Please quicken according to Your Word and make me Your disciple, a man/woman of Your truth, Your Word. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Are You right with God? Making peace with God.

The Good Shepherd and His True Sheep [podcast]


“Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant …” Hebrews 13:20

“To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out.” John 10:3 

My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: 28 and I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. 29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand.” John 10:27-29

This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, 4 traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; 5 having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. 6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, 7 ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. 8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith. 9 But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as theirs also was.

10 But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience, 11 persecutions, afflictions, which came unto me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what persecutions I endured: but out of them all the Lord delivered me. 12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution. 13 But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.” 2 Timothy 3:1-13

And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me. 24 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it. 25 For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away?” Luke 9:23-25

Eating the Fat, and Drinking the Sweet! [podcast]


Mourning Trumps Merriment in Christ’s Kingdom

PRAYER: Heavenly Father, I’d like to walk in Your bless-ed joy, filling my life to overflowing, no matter what’s transpiring. LORD, I ask You to do Your deeper work in my heart, in my life. Please set apart my life to truly glorify You, being full of the fruits of Your righteousness. In Jesus’ Name, amen.

Everyone desires the joy of the LORD, right? Yes, yet only those who are willing to devour His Word – to get it into their hearts and keep it flowing into their hearts, will experience that great joy of the LORD which is our strength! In context, the joy of the LORD is the strength of those who read it, hear it, embrace it, adhere to it, and keep it flowing into their mind and heart daily! (Nehemiah 8:8, 10)

“So they read in the book in the law of God distinctly (directly), and gave the sense, and caused them to understand the reading. … 10 Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the fat, and drink the sweet, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared: for this day is holy unto our Lord: neither be ye sorry; for the joy of the LORD is your strength.” Nehemiah 8:8, 10

After they had feasted on God’s Word, the elders of Israel said to them: You are now full of the Word. Now “Go your way”, that is, go home and be blessed to “send portions” of the bounty of the LORD you’ve been filled with today to overflowing. “Freely ye have received, freely give.” (Matthew 10:8) Let your cup run over and bless others! Let your light shine into others, may your cup run over onto others, to bless them with the bountiful blessings of the LORD you have received.

We have to eat the fat and drink the sweet of the Word of God to be filled with the joy of the LORD which is our strength!

“Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O LORD God of hosts.” Jeremiah 15:16

Nourishing the Body of Christ

“If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished up in the words of faith and of good doctrine, whereunto thou hast attained.” 1 Timothy 4:6

DO people know they can find the rich treasures of God’s Word when they walk into your life, when they visit your social media page? (Colossians 3:16) Will they be “nourished” by the milk and meat of God’s bless-ed Word when they are graced to be in your company?

“There is treasure to be desired and oil in the dwelling of the wise.” Proverbs 21:20

Holy Father, we ask You in the name of Jesus to make us happy in Jesus as You’ve forgiven and freed us from our sin and so of all people on Your earth, only Your people can be truly happy in Thee dear LORD. Please bless each of Your beloved saints to be anointed for the death and burial of the self life and raised up in Your blessed resurrection grace and joy. In Jesus’ name let it be dear LORD.

“These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.” John 15:11

Pride and False Prophets [podcast]


“And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.”  Matthew 24:11

What’s the difference between true and false servants of the LORD?

Jeremiah 23 is essential concerning recognizing the “MANY false prophets” which Jesus foretold would “deceive MANY” in this late hour before His return (Matthew 24:11).

True servants of the LORD stand in the counsel, the WORD of the LORD and not in the evil imaginations, dreams, or visions of their own wicked hearts.

Jeremiah 23
“Thus saith the LORD of hosts, Hearken not unto the words of the prophets that prophesy unto you: they make you vain: they speak a vision of their own heart, and not out of the mouth of the LORD.
17  They say still unto them that despise me, The LORD hath said, Ye shall have peace; and they say unto every one that walketh after the imagination of his own heart, No evil shall come upon you.
18  For who hath stood in the counsel of the LORD, and hath perceived and heard his word? who hath marked his word, and heard it?
19  Behold, a whirlwind of the LORD is gone forth in fury, even a grievous whirlwind: it shall fall grievously upon the head of the wicked.
20  The anger of the LORD shall not return, until he have executed, and till he have performed the thoughts of his heart: in the latter days ye shall consider it perfectly.
21  I have not sent these prophets, yet they ran: I have not spoken to them, yet they prophesied.
22  But if they had stood in my counsel, and had caused my people to hear my words, then they should have turned them from their evil way, and from the evil of their doings.”

ARE YOU in God’s Word daily or have you backslidden? It’s either one or the other.

True servants of the LORD, as was the case with Paul and Timothy, will get YOU into God’s Word for yourself…

“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15

“As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby:” 1 Peter 2:2

So both the LORD’s apostle Paul and the apostle Peter instructed believers to get into the Word of God for themselves – to “study” and to “desire” it. Any man pretending to represent Christ and not do this very thing repeatedly is a bona fide wolf in sheep’s clothing, a devil.

Imagine parents who continued to feed their infant and never taught that baby to pick up the spoon and feed themself….  so that child would perpetually be dependent upon someone else feeding them…. in the natural this is unheard of, yet it’s rampant in that which claims to be Christ’s “church.”

Read Jeremiah 23.

But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble. Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded. Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness. 10 Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.”  James 4:6-10

“Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.” 1 John 4:1

Pride vs Humility

“Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.” (Proverbs 16:18) True humility before God first, then men, always wins – “Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.” (James 4:10)
