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

IF a person is not learning the cross – learning to walk the crucified life – should you be entertaining marrying them?

Attempting to put a relationship together that is not absolutely ordained of God – is a death trap that will take you places you don’t want to go, keep you longer than you want to stay, and cost you more than you want to pay. Years of derailment lie in such a trap and Satan is stalking and setting those traps to snare you (2 Corinthians 2:11; 1 Peter 5:8). The enemy has sunk many a ship, a life this way. Beware of pushing, of propelling something that God is not in, is not clearly opening the door for you to flow into. He never sleeps, slumbers, not misses His cue (Psalms 121:4). Beware beloved of God. Your life is His and He has a plan, a direction, a person. You are HIS – purchased by His very and precious blood (1 Corinthians 6:9-10; 2 Corinthians 6:14).

SO do you actually, vainly believe God is going to trap one of His beloved children in a marriage with you – while you refuse to die the death, to be truly crucified with Christ – laying down your life to serve Him and others? Not going to happen. Such would be a sinister indictment on the Almighty. If you are going to rebel in selfishness, in cross-lessness, God is going to allow you to soak and even perish in your own corruption and misery. He’s not going to join you with one of His beloved daughters, a handmaid of His kingdom, unless you lay down your life for real and live the crucified life (Galatians 2:20). You are only kidding yourself to think such a thing.

“Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves. 4 Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others. 5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:” Philippians 2:3-5

UNMARRIED and praying for that godly mate? The prep is for us to come into that relationship SERVING, to serve beloved. Read that sentence again please. When God brings two of His children together, they come to humbly serve, serve, serve God and their mate. God-fearing marriage prep: Read and pray these passages each morning: Matthew 20:24-28; Philippians 2:3-5.

“No Christian should be shocked at the alarming increase in singleness. Marriage is not friend of selfishness and we are a self-serving society.” Dale P.

Get back to the cross beloved – where you are daily dead and buried and Christ is raising your life upward, resurrecting you into His perfect will and blessings.

“Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body. 11 For we which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus’ sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh. 12 So then death worketh in us, but life in you.” 2 Corinthians 4:10-12

Why would the LORD join one of His authentic disciples in marriage to a counterfeit? He wouldn’t.

“Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?” 2 Corinthians 6:14

Beloved of God – your choices are narrow as is the way to eternal glory wherein only a “few” walk (Matthew 7:13-14) Right? As you step back and meditate upon these truths, the realization of what God desires for you in holy matrimony will begin to come to focus. Equally yoked is His stated will.

Though nearly never heard, the cross, the crucified life is at the center of Christ’s original Gospel message and the determining factor as to who is real and who is not (Luke 9:23-24). Today, begin hand writing and memorizing Bible verses on the cross life, the crucified life – which is the only way to walk with Jesus. Otherwise sin reigns.

The person not walking the crucified life is not following Jesus – regardless of their personal claim (Matthew 16:24-25).

Either Jesus, the cross He prescribes, will crucify sin out of your life – or, sin will crucify the holy Savior out of your life.

Read Romans 6 each morning this week. | The Cross Lifestyle

“It is more blessed to give than to receive.” Acts 20:35

Life truth: Your whole life is ordained by your Maker, your Redeemer – to worship and love and serve Him and to humbly serve others, with His joy and delight. Pour prayerfully over Matthew 22:37-40. If you will embrace, will choose to capture and walk out this truth, your life will be blessed by God. There are no shortcuts.

“Be someone who wants to bring added value
into the life of another, not just someone who wants to be married.
That’s what mature marriage-readiness requires.” unknown

“Esther wasn’t looking for a husband, yet, God gave her a king. Ruth wasn’t looking for a husband, yet, God gave her a redeemer. Adam wasn’t searching for a wife, yet, God gave him his helpmeet. Stop searching and allow God to give you what you need.” @dearfuturehim

“Ladies, I know we say ‘times have changed’, but never pursue a man, no matter how much you love him. Not only is it against the order of God, it violates even the laws of nature. Soil doesn’t chase seed. The seed must come to the soil. As flattering as it is for a man to be pursued by a woman, no self-respecting man derives any satisfaction from that. And, as a woman, it diminishes your stature and worth in the man’s eyes. Let him pursue you. If he doesn’t, he’s not the one. No man who wants a woman is shy. Even if he’s naturally reserved, when he find a woman he likes, he will step up to the plate. Don’t make excuses for him.” Mogotsi D Baloyi

Beloved, each and every morning as you awake, let the following divinely inspired words roll out of your heart and lips as your prayer… and declaration:

“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

Marriage is the perfect opportunity to be crucified with Christ, fueling your life with divine grace to humbly serve your mate – daily, perpetually. Jesus-glorifying marriages are to make us holy, not necessarily always happy. Yet, to be truly happy, one must commit to the One who is “Holy, holy, holy” and commands us to “Be ye holy; for I am holy” (Isaiah 6:3; 1 Peter 1:15-16; Revelation 4:8). When we are set apart to the LORD (definition of holy). We are then and only then enjoying true happiness, joy – no matter what’s transpiring around us (James 1:2-4; 1 Peter 1:7-8).

If you are not going to put Jesus first, you are simply choosing not to be His – you are making the decision to reject the Son of God (Matthew 6:24; 12:30).

Jesus must be first – or you are not His. Yes, it’s a salvation issue. Begin with repenting friend (Revelation 2:4-5).

“If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.” Luke 14:26

PRAYER of an unmarried born again disciple for a truly God fearing mate: Holy Father, break me, do Your deeper work in this vessel, all the way to the core of this being. Jesus, please bless this life to be truly, continually, daily crucified with You dear LORD. Teach me Thy ways – to love and serve You first then all others. Please make me Your authentic disciple. Let every trace of evil, of deceit, of self-idolatry, fakery, self-idolatry, of spiritual adultery be crucified in this life dear LORD. Please anoint this vessel to the death and burial of the self-life that You alone might reign and this life may be a light for Your bless-ed and eternal glory – first serving You, my mate, and others. In Jesus’ Name, amen. Father on Your earth, You have an unmarried man/woman, who is Yours and is praying, is asking You for a godly mate…. please unite us, bring us together as You did with Your beloved Isaac and Rebekah, according to Your perfect will LORD, in the name of Jesus Christ.

Read the story of God bringing together Isaac and Rebekah in Genesis 24.

Are You Marriage Material?

Are you approaching daily life and marriage with a SERVANT’s heart or to get your own “needs” met? Unmarried?

Overcoming that Old Serpent, Called the Devil, and Satan [podcast]

“And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.” Revelation 12:9

“That old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world” never left the garden of God’s creation and he won’t till Jesus slam dunks him into the bottomless pit (Genesis 3; Revelation 12; 20). He must be overcome “by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death” (Revelation 12:11). God is able. Satan

“He that diggeth a pit shall fall into it; and whoso breaketh an hedge, a serpent shall bite him.” Ecclesiastes 10:8

“From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members? 2 Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not. 3 Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts. 4 Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God. 5 Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, The spirit that dwelleth in us lusteth to envy? 6 But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble. 7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” James 4:1-7

In the scope of past, present, and future history – HIS-story – nothing is over till Jesus wins!

“For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet. 26 The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death. … 57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.” 1 Corinthians 15:25-26, 57

The Cross

Personally I was not blessed to begin seeing our LORD’s victory in my personal life until Jesus’ cross message began to seep into my heart, thoughts and mind.

The record of Holy Scripture assures us that our LORD Jesus conquered sin, death, hell, and Satan (1 John 3:8). But how? He overcome by the cross.

Jesus conquered sin and death by dying.

If this is the first time you are hearing this truth, don’t be ashamed. It’s new to all of us due to the original Gospel message of the cross has been lost among most who claim Christ. | The Cross

Camping out on the message of the cross will assure you are quickened to “seek the Lord and his strength, seek his face continually.” (1 Chronicles 16:11) Keeping thine eyes and heart upon His cross message will hasten you to Him, to His cross, to the death of self that Christ might raise you upward in His holy power and glory.

“Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn (grain, seed) of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit. 25 He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal. 26 If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father honour.” John 12:24-26

The cross truly is a “Let go and let God” economy, experience – crying, declaring “Jesus You MUST increase but I MUST decrease!”

As the apostle Paul discovered, you are NOT sufficient and yet His grace is sufficient for your life in Him.

“And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 10 Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ’s sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.” 2 Corinthians 12:9-10

PRAYER: Father, please grant me eye salve to see Your holy truth and the many wolves that now are disguised in sheep’s clothing and leading many to hell. Help me, Jesus! Knowing my utter poverty of spirit, I this moment turn afresh to You fully, asking You to have mercy on me and wash away all my sins. Grant the eyes of my heart discernment as only You can, as I walk closely with You. I choose this day to deny my own self-will and desires and ask You to consume me with Your wisdom, power, and grace. LORD Jesus, please bless me to know You intimately. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

Jesus Conquered Sin, Satan, and Death by Dying [podcast]

“Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; 15 And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.” Hebrews 2:14-15 Through death Jesus conquered sin, death, and Satan and made His people free, washing away their sins in His precious blood and putting His Holy Spirit in them, empowering them to live fruit-filled victorious lives to His eternal glory! Christ’s resurrection guarantees our resurrection – both […]

Victory Over the Iniquities that Currently Drive You [podcast]

“Too many Christians blame their flesh on Satan and try casting it out. Never works. That’s why they don’t grow! Must crucify the flesh!” Karen Cochran Recently, a brother in Christ was pushing the fact that Genesis 6:5, 12 use the phrase “only evil continually” pertaining to mankind, all men.

Look for the Bible answer…… Why Jesus came to die for us and make us new creatures in Christ whereby OLD THINGS ARE […]

Dominating the Devil! [podcast]

Dominating sin and satan only comes to those willing to die and be buried “with Christ.” (Romans 6; Galatians 2:20) The result is His glorious resurrection in their lives and consequent victory over sin and satan! IS JESUS not the Answer? Yes He is….. let’s give the world around us that answer to man’s core dilemma – sin! Jesus is the only Solution! It’s the stated will of God that we walk in His victory – in the victory He provided through Christ. “But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.” 1 Corinthians […]

Exhort One Another Daily [podcast]

“But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.” Hebrews 3:13

“Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water. ²³Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;) ²⁴And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: ²⁵Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.” Hebrews 10:22-25

Saints, let’s always remember that other disciples have the SAME exact iniquitous flesh to deal with daily as we do (Genesis 6:5, 12; Jeremiah 17:9; Romans 3, etc.). They are just like us – absolutely wicked and depraved without the present working of the saving grace of our God at work in us! (Romans 7) Each of Christ’s followers are like us, working out their own salvation with fear and trembling as the LORD works in them both to will and to do of His good pleasure (Philippians 2:12-13).

“We then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves.” Romans 15:1

“Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted. 2 Bear ye one another’s burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.” Galatians 6:1-2

Let’s lift up our LORD’s disciples instead of wrongly judging them in our attitudes, etc. Seeing and treating them with God’s love is important ( 1 Peter 4:7-8; 1 John 4:7-8, 16-18; 5:1, etc.).

“And oppress not the widow, nor the fatherless, the stranger, nor the poor; and let none of you imagine evil against his brother in your heart.” Zechariah 7:10

“Let us therefore follow after the things which make for peace, and things wherewith one may edify another.” Romans 14:19

“Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.” 1 Thessalonians 5:11

DOES the Bible tell us to “Go make disciples” OR to “Teach others God’s Word”? Interesting. Does the Bible Ever Say “Go Make Disciples”?

Neither Give Place to the Devil! [podcast]

“Neither give place to the devil.” Ephesians 4:27 “This is a really good message!” CB — MANY have been blinded and duped to believe that either 1) there is no devil, or 2) there is a devil but he’s not active. But God’s Word tells us that Satan, the archenemy of Christ and mankind, is active and has an organized kingdom structure: “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” (Ephesians 6:12) Warning: “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as […]

Fulfilling Your Calling [podcast]

MINISTRY which pleases God is simply helping people know and grow in Christ for themselves – by the cross life and getting into HIS Word for themselves so they can follow HIM, not you! True ministry fosters in the hearers faith in God, not the preacher or local church organization! Read 1 Corinthians 2:1-5; 2 Corinthians 1:9; 3:5; 4:5. Your communications and ministry are fed and fueled by your personal daily study and knowledge of God’s Word (Proverbs 22:17-21; 2 Timothy 2:15). Ephesians 4:1-14 “I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation […]

“Shall I not visit for these things?” [podcast]

Widespread Corruption – Evidence of God’s Judgment on a Nation

IMPORTANT: Read Matthew 24 and Luke 21 this week. Jesus foretold this would all be happening right before He returns! Jesus is coming. Get ready.

A cursory introduction to Jeremiah 5-7. God’s people were in rebellion to Him and reaping what they’d been sowing (Galatians 6:7-8). Read, pour prayerfully over these chapters this week beloved. This message is designed to launch the God fearing saint to pour over this passage as they examine their hearts, their lives before Him honestly.

“Your iniquities have turned away these things, and your sins have withholden good things from you. 26 For among my people are found wicked men: they lay wait, as he that setteth snares; they set a trap, they catch men. 27 As a cage is full of birds, so are their houses full of deceit: therefore they are become great, and waxen rich. 28 They are waxen fat, they shine: yea, they overpass the deeds of the wicked: they judge not the cause, the cause of the fatherless, yet they prosper; and the right of the needy do they not judge. 29 Shall I not visit for these things? saith the LORD: shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this? 30 A wonderful and horrible thing is committed in the land; 31 The prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests bear rule by their means; and my people love to have it so: and what will ye do in the end thereof?” Jeremiah 5:25-31

Judgment on America for the Rebellion of those who Falsely Claim to be Saved

“And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held: 10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?” Revelation 6:9-10

The LORD blesses those who are with Him. Anyone who forsakes Him will be forsaken by Him.

“The LORD is with you, while ye be with him; and IF ye seek him, he will be found of you; but IF ye forsake him, he will forsake you.” 2 Chronicles 15:2

The word “if” in God’s Word denotes a choice that will be made.

The LORD is not with you if you are not with Him – doing life on HIS stated terms. That’s exactly why He gave you His recorded Word in tangible form. Read John 14-16.

Notice “IF ye seek him” and not if you go to church or just claim to be His. Are you seeking His holy face “continually”?

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

“Therefore also now, saith the LORD, turn ye even to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning: 13 And rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn unto the LORD your God: for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repenteth him of the evil.” Joel 2:12-13

“O Israel, return unto the LORD thy God; for thou hast fallen by thine iniquity. 2 Take with you words, and turn to the LORD: say unto him, Take away all iniquity, and receive us graciously: so will we render the calves of our lips.” Hosea 14:1-2

Notice here in the verse below how setting, allowing wicked things into our eye gates leads to turning aside, departing from Christ, backsliding. Notice how the psalmist views backsliding as a plague. And it sure is. Millions irrevocably occupy the bowels of eternal damnation right this moment and forever who made one bad decision which led to their backsliding. It’s time to read God as if our eternal souls depended on it – because they do. safeguardyoursoul.com

“I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me.” Psalms 101:3

PRAYER: Heavenly Father, please break me, make me to be poor in spirit and pure in heart. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Judgment to Come [podcast]

The original Gospel prominently includes the judgment of hell coming to every person who dies in sin (Mark 9:43-49, etc.). EVERY preacher not preaching hell is a false prophet who is preaching “another gospel” and is “accursed” (Galatians 1:6-9). Jesus and His holy apostles taught it and there’s no excuse for not doing the same. Repent now. We must understand that God is severe in His judgment of rebels of which there are “many” who claim they are saved. Eternal damnation awaits all rebels (Matthew 7:13-23, etc.). “Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but […]
