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

“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

The man who is truly faithful to God will search out, diligently study, devour, and learn the words of God and be used of Him to communicate them to others.

“So they read in the book in the law of God distinctly, and gave the sense, and caused them to understand the reading.” Nehemiah 8:8

They read the Word itself.
They gave the sense to help the people understand it.

Phillip was able to give the sense of the Scriptures, to show Christ to the Ethiopian eunuch who was reading about Jesus is Isaiah. Our ministry, each of us as Christ’s “ambassadors,” is like how Philip who ministered to the Ethiopian eunuch. Remember how the beloved searching Ethiopian was reading the Bible, Isaiah, in his chariot but couldn’t understand it because he wasn’t saved? So then what? Well God sent Philip to minister to him and lead him into the kingdom of JESUS. Read that beloved of God because the LORD wants to use you mightily in this late hour! See Acts 8:26-39.

As is evidenced by the lives and ministries of Jesus and His holy apostles on the pages of Holy Scripture, true disciples will boldly “PREACH (declare) the word” and not put it out there as if it’s a suggestion or apologize for it with no fear of God (2 Timothy 4:1-4, etc.). The LORD uses crucified vessels, therefore they are not self-serving nor do they fear mere men (1 Corinthians 2:2; Galatians 2:20; 6:14, etc.).

The written Word reveals the living Word Himself.

PREACH CHRIST NOW.

IF Jesus taught something and we’re not teaching it – it’s because we are not following Him correctly – on HIS stated terms (Matthew 28:18-20; John 8:47; 2 Timothy 3:16; 4:2-4, etc.). Are you following Jesus Christ or mere man? Do you preach Christ and His doctrines from HIS Word or are you just regurgitating the pitiful poisons of mere men?

WHEN you hear someone saying something like “Get into alignment, there’s a SHIFT coming,” OR “God is repositioning you,” RUN! These are new age pagan terms! The are no where found in the Bible! People who use this type buzz word terminology are usually deceitfully seeking to position, to shift people into a place to exploit them for their own self-serving agenda. Beware saints.

God gave us His Word in written format so they’d be no confusion and also, no excuse on Judgment Day (John 12:48; Romans 2:16; 1 Corinthians 14:33; 2 Timothy 3:16-17, etc.). The Word of God is the basis by which the LORD shall judge each of us.

ARE YOU PREACHING THE ACTUAL WORDS OF HOLY SCRIPTURE OR SOMETHING ELSE? HAVE YOU REPLACED THE DIVINELY INSPIRED WORDS OF THE BIBLE WITH YOUR OWN WORDS? ARE YOU WISER THAN THE ALMIGHTY? ARE YOUR EXPLANATIONS, TERMINOLOGY, AND WORDS MORE POWERFUL THAN GOD’S?

Regrettably, the world is full of empty ministries, ministers.

“Whoso boasteth himself of a false gift is like clouds and wind without rain.” Proverbs 25:14

The phrase “clouds and wind without rain” represent ministers with no substance, no Word from God – from God’s Word. Our testimony is good but nothing in comparison to obeying God by preaching HIS Word. Remember that all testimonies are subjective. The Bible is divine (2 Timothy 3:16-17; 2 Peter 1:19-21). There are so many empty ministries like the LORD foretold who go on and on and on telling stories, talking about themselves, etc., and yet don’t get their audience into God written Word. They are “clouds and wind without rain.” In other words they have no real, divine substance and are false teachers.

In 2 specific and recent instances, 2 separate brothers in Christ asked me to listen to long drawn out “ministry” message in front of 2 different small congregations. Well, it took very little time to skip through those whole videod messages and see not even one of those wolves reading from the Bible itself. Boom. Case closed. True servants of the LORD simply minister HIS Word. They don’t stand up and go on and on and on and on about themselves and everything else under the sun except Scripture. Read Nehemiah 8:8; Isaiah 8:16, 20; 2 Tim 4:2-4 etc

“If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles (written Word) of God.” 1 Peter 4:11

Unless someone is biblically intensive, unless they are going to engage in a time of delving into God’s Word itself, it’s not only a waste of time, it can result in being misled.

“In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. 4 And this I say, lest any man should beguile you with enticing words. 5 For though I be absent in the flesh, yet am I with you in the spirit, joying and beholding your order, and the stedfastness of your faith in Christ. 6 As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him: 7 Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving. 8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. 9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. 10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:” Colossians 2:3-10

Clouds and Wind Without Rain [podcast]

The Peril and Plague of Empty Messengers Stating the obvious: There are so many “clouds and wind without rain” ministers/ministries (Proverbs 25:14; Jude 1:12). It’s all emotion, entertainment, no truth. Unreal and people just keep going back and supporting this foolishness, even though they are empty. That’s the problem – They don’t study the Bible themselves, the KJB. Clouds from heaven are full of refreshing living water to bless, to make whole, heal, and establish God’s people in the faith (Colossians 2:6-10). The LORD’s true “prophets” are not those who come up with some word they claim is from God […]

H.O.T. BIBLE STUDY [podcast]

“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 Memorize 2 Timothy 2:15 today. Index card perhaps. Read it aloud over and over. YOU cannot personally know the ORIGINAL Gospel if you don’t study the naked truth of it for yourself beloved. KJB So very many today are deceived due to not studying God’s Word for themselves. They live for years with erroneous notions men told them. Instead of repenting and getting into the Word for themselves, many of them go to their graves having […]

Beware of the BUZZ WORD Bandits [podcast]

SATAN’S LAUGHABLE FRAUDS: When you hear some dupe, some warlock or witch pretending to be a prophet of God, using cultic regurgitated buzz words like “I feel a shift coming” , a “realignment”, a “release”, or “God is repositioning you”, “your destiny is at hand,” etc., run! Note WHAT’S MISSING: Where there is no cross – God isn’t in it!!!! Their prophetic words are speaking of ministering and yet ministering, God’s way, always comes out of the crucified – the dead and buried – life! God uses crucified vessels that He raises us and their is no crucified life […]

Is there Power in Prayer? [podcast]

There is power in prayer but the power is not the prayer.

The power is God.

He’s the One answering the prayers of His saints.

This is done on the basis of Christ’s perfect sacrifice.

Yes God is the power. Is there “power in prayer”? Yes because when we pray we are blessed to access God the Father through Christ – who is the power, who has “all power.”

“And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.” Matthew 28:18

Prayer is simply the venue God gave us to access Him.

In the name of Jesus Christ we pray.

“And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.” John 14:13-14

God’s desires to answer our prayers in the name of Jesus that our “joy may be full” in Christ.

“And in that day ye shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give it you. 24 Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.” John 16:23-24

Abiding in Christ according to the wisdom and counsel of His written Word is a condition for answered prayer.

“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

“Lord, Teach us to Pray" [podcast]

“Truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.” 1 John 1:3 Prayer is simply communing with God. “One of his disciples said unto him, Lord, teach us to pray.” Luke 11:1 “Lord, teach us to pray.” Christ’s disciples today should ask the LORD to “teach us to pray.” The disciples called on Jesus to teach them to pray—to have a prayer life, to live a life of prayer, to commune with Him and the Father perpetually. Christ answered them and us by giving the whole Church a model prayer to be followed in spontaneous and joyful relationship. Here it is: “And it […]

The Daily Cross in Prayer [podcast]

Prayer is inseparably connected with knowing God (John 17:3). (Excerpt from the book I Die Daily) “My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.” Psalms 5:3 Let’s isolate and dismantle these words of God a bit. Under the direct inspiration of the Holy Spirit, David says to the LORD: That He (God) would hear his (David’s) “voice” That “in the morning” the Psalmist would arise and seek God in prayer Deliberately “in the morning,” he would “direct” his prayer and praying to the LORD – “in the […]

Empowered by His Word and Cross [podcast]

Being Crucified with Christ Assures that we will Preach His Word.

Why do people get weak and compromise, and faint in the battle?

“If thou faint in the day of adversity, thy strength is small.” Proverbs 24:10

How to go from “small” “strength” to much strength

How to get built up, to be “nourished up” …..

“praying in the Holy Ghost.”

“But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost.” Jude 20

“nourished up in the words of faith and of good doctrine”

“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

“Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly” – running rich on the divine fuel of God’s Word.

“Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.” Colossians 3:16

“For I am the LORD, I change not.” Malachi 3:6

“Our love to the word of God is evidence of our Love to God”. Matthew Henry.

God, and therefore what He’s stated are unchanging, unfailing, everlasting, ever-living and ever-relevant.

The LORD would and will never contradict His own Word.

“For ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven.” Psalms 119:89

“My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.” Psalms 89:34

The LORD’s Word cannot and will not change because He will never change. Divinity, eternal perfection, needs no change.

“Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.” Mark 13:31

The Word of God is the authority of God – the very “thoughts of his heart.”

“The counsel of the LORD standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.” Psalms 33:11

Jesus called the Scripture the authority of God.

“Therefore also said the wisdom of God, I will send them prophets and apostles, and some of them they shall slay and persecute:” Luke 11:49

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

“If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken;” John 10:35

To a man speaking of the “walking according to the present voice of God” the following reply was given:

Yet you speak of the “present voice of God” which is concerning. Has anything God has ever stated even minutely diminished? No. Impossible. God is unchanging and therefore so is His written Word. Ps 89:34; 119:89; Mark 13:31 …. Psalms 119:105 is the way we walk in the Spirit. The leading of the Holy Spirit can never be separated from the written Word. “God is not the author of confusion” and so will never contradict Himself (1 Corinthians 14:33).

Every part of His creation is changing, yet He is forever Constant.

“The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand for ever.” Isaiah 40:8

What God has stated in His Word will come to pass and has no expiration date.

“Seek ye out of the book of the LORD, and read: no one of these shall fail.” Isaiah 34:16

As seen from the inception, in the very Garden of creation, Satan wants the “foundation” …..removed or diminished.

“If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?” Psalms 11:3

“that those things which cannot be shaken may remain.”

“And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel.

25 See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaketh from heaven:

26 Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven.

27 And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain.

28 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:

29 For our God is a consuming fire.” Hebrews 12:24-29

Building the house of our lives on the Word, the only sure, eternal foundation.

“Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.

21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.

22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?

23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:

25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.

26 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:

27 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.

28 And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings, the people were astonished at his doctrine:

29 For he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.” Matthew 7:19-29

May He bless His children to be strictly and inseparably cemented in and to His Word amen!

“The counsel of the LORD standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.” Psalms 33:11

Have you ever pondered why there is little or no Scripture being used when listening to someone pretending to be speaking about the LORD? You should wonder (Matthew 7:16, 20; 1 John 4:1).

Isa 8:20 To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.

Isa 8:16 Bind up the testimony, seal the law among my disciples.

“Preach the word” is the divine mandate, command (2 Timothy 4:2).

Let us cease to pretend that we represent the LORD when everything we say isn’t coming straight out of His Word. Read that again please. He didn’t instruct us to entertain or to tell stories. He commanded us to preach HIS Word. King James Bible.

“If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles (written Word) of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.” 1 Peter 4:11

Think God is calling you to serve? Good. If He has saved you, He has called you (Ephesians 2:8-10; 4:7). Get lost in His Word every day (Jeremiah 15:16). Read it (Revelation 1:3). Study it (2 Timothy 2:15). Memorize it (Proverbs 4:4). Meditate upon it day and night (Joshua 1:8; Psalm 1). THAT’s your prep for ministry, not going to an antichrist seminary. Jesus inducted you into His school of the Holy Ghost and Word the moment He saved you.

Are you daily devouring God’s Word, OR are you backsliding?

“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

“I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.” Galatians 2:20

Speaking the Word of God in the Crucified Life.

“For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.” Colossians 3:3

It’s only those who choose NOT to love the truth who remain in darkness. Speaking of the “man of sin” (v3) to come and also all men, God’s Word states:

“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

When one turns his heart to the LORD, the darkness, the blindness subsides:

“Nevertheless when it (the heart) shall turn to the Lord, the vail shall be taken away. 17 Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. 18 But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.” 2 Corinthians 3:16-18

Will you love darkness or will you turn to God in repentance and love “the light of the world” Jesus Christ and His truth?

“And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.” John 3:19-21

Prayer: Holy Father, I know You are unchanging, and Your Word is settled in Heaven. Thank You so very much for giving us Your unalterable Word, for preserving it for us. In Jesus’ name, amen.

“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. 14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.” Matthew 24:10-14

“God is love” and God is “Holy, holy, holy.” (1 John 4:8, 16; Isaiah 6:3; Revelation 4:8)

He loves us. Fact.

He is holy. Fact.

Do we love Him?

Such will determine our eternal destination.

“And to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love his neighbour as himself, is more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.” Mark 12:33

Choosing to love God with….

“all the heart”

“all the understanding”

“all the soul”

“all they strength”

“We are commanded to love God with all of our heart, soul, and mind (Mat 22:37). That means a total surrender of all that one holds dear, including yourself. It is a command from the LORD to love God with every fiber of our being and to have Him as our first love. This means a wholehearted devotion to Him, and Him alone. Let your heart be the dwelling place for the Lord.” Karen Cochran

“Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; 26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, 27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.” Ephesians 5:25-27

“IF”

“But IF we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.”1 John 1:7

“IF we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 1 John 1:9

“Continually”

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