The War On Truth

Friday, January 22nd, 2021

There is a war on Absolute Truth and we must stand on Truth which comes from Heaven and not be moved by the world’s various alternatives.

“Truth” based on observation on earth is subject to change because we live in a fallen world that can be manipulated.  This promotes weakness in those who trust in these limited observations.  This is why people live in a state of emotional distress.  When people walk by themselves in their own weakness, the adversary is empowered to steal, kill, and destroy at will.

If you change or modify variables on earth, then the world’s “truths” change.  Truth is constant in Heaven.  On what do you want to base your life? 

GOD is constant and we need to base our lives on HIM!  Our Covenant with FATHER is the one constant that stays true so we should rely fully on this reality and no longer trust our limited observations here on earth.  Why?  They will change.

Jesus spoke in John chapter 14:

15 “If you Love Me, obey My commandments. 16 And I will ask the Father, and HE will give you another Advocate, who will never leave you. 17 He is the Holy Spirit, who leads into all Truth. The world cannot receive Him, because it isn’t looking for Him and doesn’t recognize Him. But you know Him, because He lives with you now and later will be in you.

Are the Sons and Daughters going to hide in a cave while nefarious individuals sway the people to accept total blindness?  We must wage spiritual warfare with the rulers of darkness and not allow ourselves to be intimidated by current events.  We must be fully led by THE SPIRIT and respond according to the directives of THE SPIRIT.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Romans 8:

26 And in a similar way, the Holy Spirit takes hold of us in our human frailty to empower us in our weakness. For example, at times we don’t even know how to pray, or know the best things to ask for. But the Holy Spirit rises up within us to super-intercede on our behalf, pleading to God with emotional sighs too deep for words.

27 God, the Searcher of the heart, knows fully our longings, yet HE also understands the desires of the Spirit, because the Holy Spirit passionately pleads before God for us, His Holy ones, in perfect harmony with God’s plan and our destiny.

28 So we are convinced that every detail of our lives is continually woven together to fit into God’s perfect plan of bringing good into our lives, for we are HIS lovers who have been called to fulfill HIS designed purpose. 29 For HE knew all about us before we were born and HE destined us from the beginning to share the likeness of HIS Son. This means the Son is the oldest among a vast family of brothers and sisters who will become just like Him.

Conspiracy is a secret plan by a group to do something unlawful or harmful.  Doesn’t this truly describe the devil and his demons?  They will compromise the Truth often in a subtle way to move us away from Absolute Truth.  This is what the devil attempt when he tempted Jesus in the wilderness.

Men continue to conspire against humanity and they have submitted themselves to the adversary whether they realize it or not.  Their quest for power and riches has blinded them to the point where they truly believe the rest of us don’t realize their error.

This reality is explained by Paul who recorded by The Holy Spirit in Ephesians chapter 4:

17 So with the wisdom given to me from the Lord I say: You should not live like the unbelievers around you who walk in their empty delusions. 18 Their corrupted logic has been clouded because their hearts are so far from God—their blinded understanding and deep-seated moral darkness keeps them from the true knowledge of God. 19 Because of spiritual apathy, they surrender their lives to lewdness, impurity, and sexual obsession.

When someone is corrupted, they do not have the ability to observe or embrace the Absolute Truth.  Only by the cleansing of The Word can a man begin to see. 

The devil and his minions attempt to steer us away from Absolute Truth by having the vessels of dishonor accuse us of being “conspiracy theorists” when they in fact are constantly conspiring against the Sons and Daughters.  They use fake news and media to bombard the air waves with their blindness. 

Those who are weak in the faith will succumb to their narrative and become blind themselves.  This is why we must focus on The Word and pray in THE SPIRIT daily.  We must not allow ourselves to be subject to these uncircumcised Philistines!  David fully trusted in his covenant with FATHER and knew that Goliath would not prevail and that FATHER would deliver Goliath into his hands.  We need to have the same faith in our Covenant as well for It is based on the Absolute Truth and backed by the Blood of Jesus Christ.

Walking In Dominion

Thursday, January 21st, 2021

A king has dominion and we should understand and walk in it.  In Genesis chapter 1, FATHER spoke:

26 Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” 27 So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. 28 Then God blessed them, and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth.”

29 And God said, “See, I have given you every herb that yields seed which is on the face of all the earth, and every tree whose fruit yields seed; to you it shall be for food. 30 Also, to every beast of the earth, to every bird of the air, and to everything that creeps on the earth, in which there is life, I have given every green herb for food”; and it was so.

Dominion is the sovereign or supreme authority; the power of governing and controlling.  This is what a king has and is responsible for in his Divine mandate from Heaven.  We are to be fruitful in all that we do and if we aren’t, we are lacking in some area of knowledge and understanding.  Our mindset isn’t fully aligned with FATHER’S Divine Intent.  We need to change!  We need to be able to “image” ourselves so that we see ourselves in HIS image and likeness.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Titus chapter 2:

15 So preach these Truths and exhort others to follow them. Be willing to expose sin in order to bring correction with full authority, without being intimidated by anyone.

A king who has dominion has full authority and is not intimated by anyone.  We are called to be strong and full of courage.  If the devil can intimidate us, then we are yet walking in the full revelation of dominion. We can exhort and rebuke with authority. Let no one despise us as we speak the very oracles of GOD given to us by The Holy Spirit Who sent us forth. 

We do this in humility and with the resurrection power coming from within us by The Holy Spirit.  He will instruct us in our speech and actions thus reflecting the dominion granted to us by FATHER.

It is written by The Holy Spirit in Psalm 103:

22 I will bless and praise the Lord with my whole heart!

Let all HIS works throughout the earth,

wherever HIS dominion stretches,

let everything bless the Lord!

And in Psalm 145:

9 God, everyone sees YOUR goodness,

for YOUR tender Love is blended into everything you do.

10 Everything YOU have made will praise you, fulfilling its purpose.

And all your Godly lovers will be found bowing before you.

11 They will tell the world of the lavish splendor of YOUR Kingdom

and preach about YOUR limitless power.

12 They will demonstrate for all to see YOUR miracles of might

and reveal the glorious majesty of YOUR kingdom.

13 You are the Lord who reigns over YOUR never-ending kingdom (dominion) through all the ages of time and eternity!

You are faithful to fulfill every promise YOU’VE made.

You manifest YOURSELF as kindness in all you do.

HIS tender Love is blended in us as we walk in dominion on earth.  We are to restore mankind and establish HIS dominion throughout the earth.  We will demonstrate HIS power and authority through miracles which will draw all mankind to HIM.  These miracles are from HIS limitless power as all to see.

Daniel wrote by THE SPIRIT in chapter 4:

2 ​I thought it good to declare the signs and wonders that the Most High God has worked for me.

3 ​​How great are His signs,

​​And how mighty His wonders!

​​His Kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,

​​And His Dominion is from generation to generation.

And in chapter 6:

25 Then King Darius sent this message to the people of every race and nation and language throughout the world:

“Peace and prosperity to you!

26 “I decree that everyone throughout my kingdom should tremble with fear before the God of Daniel.

For HE is the living God,

and HE will endure forever.

HIS Kingdom will never be destroyed,

and HIS Rule will never end.

27 HE rescues and saves HIS people;

HE performs miraculous signs and wonders

in the heavens and on earth.

HE has rescued Daniel

from the power of the lions.”

And in chapter 7:

13 ​​“I was watching in the night visions,

​​And behold, One like the Son of Man,

​​Coming with the clouds of heaven!

​​He came to the Ancient of Days,

​​And they brought Him near before Him.

14 ​​Then to Him was given dominion and glory and a kingdom,

​​That all peoples, nations, and languages should serve Him.

​​His dominion is an everlasting dominion,

​​Which shall not pass away,

​​And His kingdom the one

​​Which shall not be destroyed.

We are joined with Jesus Christ in this Absolute Truth concerning His everlasting dominion and kingdom and are to fully submit to The Holy Spirit in our walk as kings and priests.  Peter affirmed by THE SPIRIT in 1st Peter chapter 4:

11 If anyone speaks, let him speak as the oracles of God. If anyone ministers, let him do it as with the ability which God supplies, that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belong the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen!

Our Covenant As Priests And Kings

Wednesday, January 20th, 2021

Those of us in perfect unity will walk in the fullness of the Covenant given to us by FATHER.

Jeremiah wrote by The Holy Spirit in chapter 31:

31 “The day is coming,” says the LORD, “when I will make a new covenant with the people of Israel and Judah. 32 This covenant will not be like the one I made with their ancestors when I took them by the hand and brought them out of the land of Egypt. They broke that covenant, though I loved them as a husband loves his wife,” says the LORD.

33 “But this is the new covenant I will make with the people of Israel on that day,” says the LORD. “I will put MY instructions deep within them, and I will write them on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be MY people. 34 And they will not need to teach their neighbors, nor will they need to teach their relatives, saying, ‘You should know the LORD.’ For everyone, from the least to the greatest, will know ME already,” says the LORD. “And I will forgive their wickedness, and I will never again remember their sins.”

We are in this Covenant now and we need to access those instructions deep within us.  Yes, they are there and accessible.

In Luke chapter 22, Jesus spoke:

After supper was over, he lifted the cup again and said, “This cup is my blood of the new covenant I make with you, and it will be poured out soon for all of you.”

Jesus activated the New Covenant by His Blood and this is why the adversary and his demons don’t want us to know and understand our Covenant.  This gave us the right to rule and reign. 

In the Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His servants and He sent and signified it by His angel to His Beloved servant John, who bore witness to the Word of God, and to the testimony of Jesus Christ, to all things that he saw. The Beloved Disciple recorded the following:

4 John, to the seven churches which are in Asia:

​Grace to you and peace from Him WHO is and WHO was and WHO is to come, and from the seven Spirits who are before His throne, 5 and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler over the kings of the earth.

To Him who Loved us and washed us from our sins in His own blood, 6 and has made us kings and priests to His God and Father, to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.

In our Covenant, we have two fundamental function and responsibilities.  We are to be “kings” who rule and “priests” who minister.  A king rules over a kingdom and we are to rule over the real estate we take back from the ruler of darkness.  This includes the entire earth.  At some point in the near future the entire earth shall be filled with FATHER’S Glory. 

Habakkuk wrote by The Holy Spirit in chapter 2:

14 For as the waters fill the sea,

the earth will be filled with an awareness

of the glory of the LORD.

All corruption will be eliminated and in its place will be the Glory of GOD!  We have been tasked with the responsibility as kings to bring forth this glory and embrace the rulership given to us by FATHER. 

We have the nature of both a king and a priest embedded within us in Christ. Christ is the One Who “made us” into this Holy order and union. It is already done.

As kings, we do not want to be on the wrong side of Jesus’ Kingship.  As priests, we do not want to do anything inconsistent with the Divine mandate of Jesus’ earthly ministry of doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil.

The Beloved Disciple further recorded by The Holy Spirit in Revelation chapter 5:

8 Now when He had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each having a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints. 9 And they sang a new song, saying:

​​“You are worthy to take the scroll,

​​And to open its seals;

​​For You were slain,

​​And have redeemed us to God by Your blood

​​Out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation,

10 ​​And have made us kings and priests to our God;

​​And we shall reign on the earth.”

Most believers have focused on the ministry aspect of Jesus as though we are to be submitted to the world while we pursue ministering to the lost.  However, a king does not submit to the adversary or his vessels of dishonor.  We are to be courageous and overcomers in our walk when it comes to resistance and opposition. 

A king does not cower down and hide when confronted.  We are called to be strong in THE LORD and as we are led by THE SPIRIT, we will walk in the power and authority as a king.  We are to do battle with the kingdom of darkness and not shy away from the aspect of our walk.  Our mindset must change in order to embrace kingship which is part of the New Covenant.

In Hebrews chapter 10, Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit and affirmed our Covenant:

15 But the Holy Spirit also witnesses to us; for after He had said before,

16 “This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, says the LORD: I will put My laws into their hearts, and in their minds I will write them,” 17 then He adds, “Their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more.”

FATHER is changing our mindset with HIS Word and is moving us into the fullness of our callings in both areas: ministry and kingship.  We need to embrace both for now is the time.

A king has dominion and we should walk in it.

Coming Into Deep Worship

Tuesday, January 19th, 2021

Those of us in perfect unity will move into deep worship and FATHER’S Shekinah Glory will manifest among us!

In Isaiah chapter 6, it is written by The Holy Spirit:​

1 It was in the year King Uzziah died that I saw the Lord. He was sitting on a lofty throne, and the train of his robe filled the Temple. 2 Attending him were mighty seraphim, each having six wings. With two wings they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they flew. 3 They were calling out to each other,

“Holy, holy, holy is the LORD of Heaven’s Armies!

The whole earth is filled with HIS glory!”

4 Their voices shook the Temple to its foundations, and the entire building was filled with smoke.

And in the Revelation of Jesus Christ, chapter 4, the Beloved Disciple wrote by The Holy Spirit:

8 Each of these living beings had six wings, and their wings were covered all over with eyes, inside and out. Day after day and night after night they keep on saying,

“Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God, the Almighty—

the ONE WHO always was, WHO is, and WHO is still to come.”

9 And whenever the living creatures gave glory, honor, and thanks to the ONE WHO is enthroned and WHO lives forever and ever, 10 the twenty-four elders fell facedown before the one seated on the throne and they worshiped the ONE WHO lives forever and ever. And they surrendered their crowns before the throne, singing:

11 “You are worthy, our Lord and God,

    to receive glory, honor, and power,

    for YOU created all things,

    and by YOUR plan they were created and exist.”

Who else is worthy of our deepest worship?  No created being is worthy to be worshipped and that is why we are to have no idols.  True worship is reserved for Our Lord only!

As we come into this deep worship, we are joining Heaven in one accord and in perfect unity.  This is when the Shekinah Glory will manifest in our presence and that same smoke will fill our room or sanctuary.

Wisdom wrote in Proverbs chapter 15:

33 The source of revelation-knowledge is found

as you fall down in surrender before the Lord.

Don’t expect to see Shekinah glory

until the Lord sees your sincere humility.

The twenty-four elders who had the privilege of being seated with Christ fell facedown before the ONE seated on the throne thus shouldn’t we follow their lead?  After all they have constant access to Absolute Truth and fully understand and walk in total humility.

In Genesis chapter 17, The Holy Spirit recorded through Moses:

1 When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the LORD appeared to him and said, “I am El-Shaddai—‘God Almighty.’ Serve me faithfully and live a blameless life. 2 I will make a covenant with you, by which I will guarantee to give you countless descendants.”

3 At this, Abram fell face down on the ground. Then God said to him, 4 “This is MY covenant with you: I will make you the father of a multitude of nations! 5 What’s more, I am changing your name. It will no longer be Abram. Instead, you will be called Abraham, for you will be the father of many nations. 6 I will make you extremely fruitful. Your descendants will become many nations, and kings will be among them!

Abram was compelled to fall face down on the ground once he came into FATHER’s Presence.  When my angel was sent from the Throne Room and appeared to three of us at Little Jack’s Steakhouse in Minneapolis to simply give me a Word from Heaven, none of the three of us were able to move at all while in the presence of this messenger sent from Heaven.  He brought forth this reality for us to experience a taste of what these elders experienced in HIS Presence.

In Numbers chapter 6, The Holy Spirit recorded through Moses:

6 Moses and Aaron turned away from the people and went to the entrance of the Tabernacle, where they fell face down on the ground. Then the glorious presence of the LORD appeared to them, 7 and the LORD said to Moses, 8 “You and Aaron must take the staff and assemble the entire community. As the people watch, speak to the rock over there, and it will pour out its water. You will provide enough water from the rock to satisfy the whole community and their livestock.”

Moses and Aaron understood deep worship and relating it to FATHER’s Presence.  Deep worship has not been at the forefront in many assemblies.  It is time for that to change.  In complete humility, we need to move into deep worship!

The Crucified Life

Monday, January 18th, 2021

A fully mature Son or Daughter will embrace walking a crucified life.  By The Holy Spirit, Paul wrote of this necessity in Romans 13:

14 “Fully immerse yourselves into the Lord Jesus, the Anointed One, and don’t waste even a moment’s thought on your former identity to awaken its selfish desires.”

When we identify with Christ we become the same; we become one with Him and His interests and purpose.  The result is that we take our place in His Body and become an effective function unit in the Body of Christ.  In doing this, we give no provision for the flesh and its selfish desires.

By The Holy Spirit, Paul wrote in Romans 8:

10 Now Christ lives his life in you! And even though your body may be dead because of the effects of sin, his life-giving Spirit imparts life to you because you are fully accepted by God. 11 Yes, God raised Jesus to life! And since God’s Spirit of Resurrection lives in you, He will also raise your dying body to life by the same Spirit that breathes life into you!

12 So then, beloved ones, the flesh has no claims on us at all, and we have no further obligation to live in obedience to it. 13 For when you live controlled by the flesh, you are about to die. But if the life of the Spirit puts to death the corrupt ways of the flesh, we then taste His abundant life.

The Spirit of Resurrection lives in us so let us embrace this Absolute Truth above anything our bodies might tell us otherwise!  It is up to us to put to death the corrupt ways of the flesh and we cannot skirt this issue.

Paul wrote in 2nd Corinthians chapter 13 by The Holy Spirit:

13 This will be my third trip to you. And I will make sure that by the testimony of two or three witnesses every matter will be confirmed. 2–3 Since you are demanding proof that the Anointed One is speaking through me, I will give you proof by exercising discipline among you. For just as I told you the last time I was there—and now, though absent, I say it again—that when I come I will not go easy on those whom I’ve already warned and those who continue to persist in their sin. Christ is not weak or feeble in his dealings with you but mighty and powerful within you. 4 For although he was crucified as a “weakling,” now he lives robed with God’s power. And we also are “weak ones” in our co-crucifixion with him, but now we live in God’s triumphant power together with him, which is demonstrated on your behalf.

When you walk in a crucified life and take on Jesus Christ’s identity, you will rule and reign on this earth.  Those who walk in this manner are robed with God’s power and authority.  Paul was ready to display and confirm that power in dealing with those who persisted in their sin.

What was Paul’s purpose in his 3rd trip to Corinth?  It was to bring forth perfect unity which required such correction.  People must accept corrective discipline and change in order to participate in the perfect unity of Christ

11 Finally, beloved friends, be cheerful! Repair whatever is broken among you, as your hearts are being knit together in perfect unity. Live continually in peace, and God, the source of Love and peace, will mingle with you.

What does this bring forth from Heaven?  Those of us in perfect unity will move into deep worship and FATHER’S Shekinah Glory will manifest among us!

Walking In True Humility

Sunday, January 17th, 2021

It is all about Jesus Christ and not about us so we need to walk in true humility.  Humility is freedom from pride and arrogance; humbleness of mind; a modest estimate of one’s own worth and most of all, submission to the Divine Will.

There are those who project false humility by expressing themselves as someone they are not.  Wisdom wrote in Proverbs chapter 15:

31 Accepting constructive criticism

opens your heart to the path of life,

making you right at home among the wise.

32 Refusing constructive criticism shows

you have no interest in improving your life,

for revelation-insight only comes as you accept correction

and the Wisdom that it brings.

33 The source of revelation-knowledge is found

as you fall down in surrender before the Lord.

Don’t expect to see Shekinah Glory

until the Lord sees your sincere humility.

Have you seen FATHER’S Shekinah Glory?  If not, you need to change.  If there is a question whether you have seen It, you haven’t.  Virtually every blog I write is about change and pursuing a pure heart… and walking in complete Holiness as a fully mature Son.  Only the remnant will diligently seek the level of humility and will embrace whatever change is necessary.  Seeing HIS Shekinah Glory is worth the commitment.  I have not seen It yet but there are those who have thus It is attainable.

We must release any past doctrines that had man’s opinions contained in them.  At the core of those doctrines we will find deception planted by the adversary.  I know I have been duped in that past, more than once.  However, FATHER showed me when I departed from the Highway of Holiness as a lesson.  Now I embrace HIS correction knowing that HE wants me to fellowship with HIM at HIS Holy Altar.

Isaiah wrote by The Holy Spirit in chapter 57:

15 The High and Lofty One Who lives in eternity,

the Holy One, says this:

“I live in the high and Holy Place

with those whose spirits are contrite and humble.

I restore the crushed spirit of the humble

and revive the courage of those with repentant hearts.

HE does not dwell with those who are arrogant, unrepentant, prideful, and living according to the world’s ways.  Pride ends in humiliation, while humility brings honor.  As James wrote by The Holy Spirit in chapter 4:

6 But he continues to pour out more and more grace upon us. For it says,

“God resists you when you are proud

    but continually pours out grace when you are humble.”

And Wisdom wrote in Proverbs chapter 22:

4 True humility and fear of The LORD

lead to riches, honor, and long life.

9 Blessed are those who are generous,

because they feed the poor.

Look at the “cause and effect” of these two verses when we walk in true humility and fear of The LORD.  First, we receive tangible benefits which include riches, and as a result, we are able to feed the poor, an important aspect of walking as a mature Son or Daughter or HE would not mention it multiple times.  When we give, our hearts must be right and FATHER knows our intent.  We can’t “buy” Holiness, giving is simply a response, outcome, or fruit of Holiness.

In Psalm 51, It is recorded by The Holy Spirit:

17 The sacrifice you desire is a broken spirit.

You will not reject a broken and repentant heart, O God.

This brings us to walking a crucified life.  By The Holy Spirit, Paul wrote of this necessity in Galatians chapter 2:

20 My old self has been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. So I live in this earthly body by trusting in the Son of God, who Loved me and gave Himself for me.

Jesus told the disciples “Whoever desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me.”  We are urged by Paul in Romans 13:14 “Fully immerse yourselves into the Lord Jesus, the Anointed One, and don’t waste even a moment’s thought on your former identity to awaken its selfish desires.”

There are those who project false humility by expressing themselves as someone they are not.  Wisdom wrote in Proverbs chapter 15:

31 Accepting constructive criticism

making you right at home among the wise.

32 Refusing constructive criticism shows

There Is No Part-Time Holiness

Saturday, January 16th, 2021

It is time to remove the “dis-“ from discourage.  What are you afraid of?  It is time to be bold and stand up to the adversary no matter what your current circumstances would suggest otherwise.  How can we be fully led by The Holy Spirit if we allow the obstacles that the adversary places before us to remain unaddressed?

What have you been tolerating that is contrary to The Word?  Have you been walking a compromised life in certain areas?  Have you allowed family to walk in an unacceptable manner while you have remained silent or passive?

The altar is given to us for repentance and cleansing yet most churches have done away with their call to the altar.  That is about to change.

Peter wrote by The Holy Spirit in his 1st epistle in chapter 1:

13 So then, prepare your hearts and minds for action! Stay alert and fix your hope firmly on the marvelous grace that is coming to you. For when Jesus Christ is unveiled, a greater measure of grace will be released to you. 14 As God’s obedient children, never again shape your lives by the desires that you followed when you didn’t know better. 15 Instead, shape your lives to become like the Holy One who called you. 16 For Scripture says:

“You are to be Holy, because I am Holy.”

Does Holiness tolerate sin in Its midst?  No!

Everything about God is Holy. True Holiness includes justice, mercy, Truth, and righteousness. To be Holy is to be absolutely devoted to God in all that we do, demonstrating who HE is to the world. Holiness surrounds God’s throne and we are seated with HIM in heavenly places (Eph. 2:6). The Hebraic concept of Holiness is “set apart”; that is, we are a people set apart for God, even as God is “set apart” from all gods. Grace has imbedded Holiness into our lives, yet we are to make right choices and to yield to Christ and God’s Word as the Holy Spirit lives in us. Holiness is not merely actions we perform, but what we absorb and manifest as we live our lives in God’s Presence. Christ is our Holiness (1 Cor. 1:30).

We must set ourselves apart, dedicate, and devote ourselves, to the service and worship of God.  Yes, we will interact with others just as Jesus interacted with sinners of all types yet He did not take on their sins but instead delivered them from sin.  There is a difference between fellowship and ministry and we must not allow ourselves to fellowship with those who are living in compromise but we are to minister life to them when we are given the opportunity.  The sinner will often want us to envy them as they flaunt what they have or what they are doing.  Don’t be sucked into their mindset with envy.

Wisdom wrote in Proverbs 23:

17 Let not your heart envy sinners, but continue in the reverent and worshipful fear of the Lord all the day long.

18 For surely there is a latter end [a future and a reward], and your hope and expectation shall not be cut off.

19 Hear, my son, and be wise, and direct your mind in the way [of the Lord].

There is much uncertainty in the world at this time because good is openly battling evil in every corner.  Deception among leaders is being exposed and brought out in the open for all who have eyes to see.  These people walking in deception must either be changed or replaced.  If this happens on a mass scale, there will be much instability in the world’s system.  However, we need to grasp what Isaiah recorded by The Holy Spirit in chapter 33:

6 ​​Wisdom and knowledge will be the stability of your times,

​​And the strength of salvation;

​​The fear of the LORD is His treasure.

When we walk in the fear of THE LORD, HE will navigate us through the coming times.  This walk is a daily walk and we are to be diligent in keeping our eyes fixed on FATHER and HIS directives.  Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Hebrews chapter 11:

6 And without faith living within us it would be impossible to please God. For we come to God in faith knowing that HE is real and that HE rewards the faith of those who give all their passion and strength into seeking HIM.

HE rewards us who diligently seek HIM on a daily basis.  There is no part-time Holiness.  We are either diligent or we aren’t.  Paul also wrote by The Holy Spirit in Romans chapter 12:

12 Beloved friends, what should be our proper response to God’s marvelous mercies? I encourage you to surrender yourselves to God to be HIS Sacred, living sacrifices. And live in Holiness, experiencing all that delights HIS Heart. For this becomes your genuine expression of worship.

2 Stop imitating the ideals and opinions of the culture around you, but be inwardly transformed by the Holy Spirit through a total reformation of how you think. This will empower you to discern God’s Will as you live a beautiful life, satisfying and perfect in HIS Eyes.

As our mindset conforms to FATHER’S Mindset, we are truly worshipping HIM.  As our transformation moves toward purity, our worship becomes pure.  We become expressions of HIM and we truly walk in Holiness and in the fear of THE LORD.

We continue to support the impoverished kids which provides hope and acceptance in their lives.

Trust The Plan

Thursday, January 14th, 2021

Each of us needs to “Trust THE Plan”.

When a plan is put in place, it contains strategies to insure implementation.  A strategy involves setting goals and priorities, determining actions to achieve the goals, and mobilizing resources to execute the actions.  A strategy describes how the ends (goals) will be achieved by the means (resources).   FATHER has a specific plan for each of us and it includes the use of angels who specifically carry out FATHER’S directives.

Jeremiah recorded by The Holy Spirit in chapter 29:

11 For I know the thoughts and plans that I have for you, says the Lord, thoughts and plans for welfare and peace and not for evil, to give you hope in your final outcome.

12 Then you will call upon Me, and you will come and pray to Me, and I will hear and heed you.

13 Then you will seek Me, inquire for, and require Me [as a vital necessity] and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart.

FATHER’S strategies address every conceivable move by the adversary thus HE is always successful when we submit to HIS directives for our lives.  Problems arise when we allow our soulish understanding to make decisions and take actions contrary to FATHER’S perfect plan and Divine Intent for us.  Once again, “we need to get over ourselves” and trust the leading of The Holy Spirit and submit to FATHER’s directives.

It is written by The Holy Spirit in Psalm 139:

10 Wherever I go, Your Hand will guide me;

Your strength will empower me.

11 It’s impossible to disappear from you

or to ask the darkness to hide me,

for Your presence is everywhere, bringing light into my night.

12 There is no such thing as darkness with You.

The night, to You, is as bright as the day;

there’s no difference between the two.

FATHER’s intervention is clearly established in the above verses.  Because of HIS intervention, we are intended to walk according to HIS predetermined plan and not in some haphazard fashion.  HE knows where we are at every moment of every day so HE is always aware of our path and whether it is the one HE has ordained for us.  HE is always ready to correct our steps so that we can return to HIS planned path for us.

13 You formed my innermost being, shaping my delicate inside

and my intricate outside,

and wove them all together in my mother’s womb.

14 I thank you, God, for making me so mysteriously complex!

Everything you do is marvelously breathtaking.

It simply amazes me to think about it!

How thoroughly you know me, Lord!

15 You even formed every bone in my body

when you created me in the secret place,

carefully, skillfully shaping me from nothing to something.

We are truly HIS handiwork and HE knows every aspect of our being.  There was nothing created by some external force or entity.  FATHER takes full credit for bringing into being.  Trust THE PLAN.

16 You saw who you created me to be before I became me!

Before I’d ever seen the light of day,

the number of days You planned for me

were already recorded in Your book.

17–18 Every single moment You are thinking of me!

How precious and wonderful to consider

that You cherish me constantly in Your every thought!

O God, Your desires toward me are more

than the grains of sand on every shore!

When I awake each morning, You’re still with me.

Why did Jesus send The Holy Spirit to us?  Jesus gave us one example in Luke chapter 12

8 “I can assure you of this: If you don’t hold back, but freely declare in public that I am the Son of Man, the Messiah, I will freely declare to all the angels of God that you are mine. 9 But if you publicly pretend that you don’t know me, I will deny you before the angels of God. 10 If anyone speaks evil of me, the Son of Man, he can be forgiven. But if anyone scornfully speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will never be forgiven. 11 And remember this: When people accuse you before everyone and forcefully drag you before the religious leaders and authorities, do not be troubled. Don’t worry about defending yourself or be concerned about how to answer their accusations. 12 Simply be confident and allow the Holy Spirit of Wisdom access to your heart, and he will reveal in that very moment what you are to say to them.”

The Holy Spirit will direct us what words to speak, especially when we are confronted by vessels of dishonor.  Jesus also spoke in John chapter 14:

23 Jesus replied, “Loving Me empowers you to obey My Word. And My Father will Love you so deeply that We will come to you and make you Our dwelling place. 24 But those who don’t Love Me will not obey My Words. The Father did not send Me to speak My own revelation, but the Words of My Father. 25 I am telling you this while I am still with you. 26 But when the Father sends the Spirit of Holiness, the One like Me who sets you free, He will teach you all things in My Name. And He will inspire you to remember every Word that I’ve told you.

We have been given The Holy Spirit to implement FATHER’S Plan in our lives.  He will set us free and teach us all things we need to know in order to walk out our individual callings and He is totally motivated by Agape Love.  Simply trust The Plan!

The Blood Of Jesus

Wednesday, January 13th, 2021

Understanding the Blood of Jesus Christ is critical to our success in taking real estate for The Kingdom.

Moses wrote as instructed by FATHER in Leviticus chapter 17:

10 ‘And whatever man of the house of Israel, or of the strangers who dwell among you, who eats any blood, I will set My face against that person who eats blood, and will cut him off from among his people. 11 For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you upon the altar to make atonement for your souls; for it is the blood that makes atonement for the soul.’ 12 Therefore I said to the children of Israel, ‘No one among you shall eat blood, nor shall any stranger who dwells among you eat blood.’

13 “Whatever man of the children of Israel, or of the strangers who dwell among you, who hunts and catches any animal or bird that may be eaten, he shall pour out its blood and cover it with dust; 14 for it is the life of all flesh. Its blood sustains its life. Therefore I said to the children of Israel, ‘You shall not eat the blood of any flesh, for the life of all flesh is its blood. Whoever eats it shall be cut off.’

We are to honor the importance of the source of physical life being contained in the blood thus the children of Israel were warned about consuming the blood of any flesh.  They were restricted from consuming blood for any reason.  FATHER would not tolerate corruption as it related to “the blood”.

Jesus spoke in John chapter 6:

51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread that I shall give is My flesh, which I shall give for the life of the world.”

52 The Jews therefore quarreled among themselves, saying, “How can this Man give us His flesh to eat?”

53 Then Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in you. 54 Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. 55 For My flesh is food indeed,[fn] and My blood is drink indeed. 56 He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood abides in Me, and I in him. 57 As the living Father sent Me, and I live because of the Father, so he who feeds on Me will live because of Me. 58 This is the bread which came down from heaven—not as your fathers ate the manna, and are dead. He who eats this bread will live forever.”

To eat His flesh is to take into our life by faith all that Jesus did for us by giving His body for us. To drink His blood is to take by faith all that the blood of Jesus has purchased for us.  The life is in the Blood thus the power and authority are in the Blood of Christ.  This is why the demons scatter when they realize that the believer fully understands the power of The Blood.

FATHER provided us a foreshadow of this Truth when the death angel bypassed the children of Israel who had applied “the Blood” on their doorposts which protected them from death.  The Blood is greater than death and It provides a real barrier from the works of the devil.  My wife and I apply the Blood of Jesus over our property and other possessions as The Holy Spirit leads us.

The “eating” and “drinking” in communion is receiving the life, power, and virtue of all that Jesus is, to replace all that we were in Adam. Jesus’ Blood and Body is the Tree of Life, which is offered to everyone who follows Him.  This is why we should frequently take communion so that we keep this Truth fresh in our mindset.

Hebrews 9: 11 But Christ came as High Priest of the good things to come, with the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands, that is, not of this creation. 12 Not with the blood of goats and calves, but with His own blood He entered the Most Holy Place once for all, having obtained eternal redemption. 13 For if the blood of bulls and goats and the ashes of a heifer, sprinkling the unclean, sanctifies for the purifying of the flesh,

14 how much more shall the Blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? 15 And for this reason He is the Mediator of the New Covenant, by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions under the first covenant, that those who are called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance.

Our entire Covenant with FATHER is based on the Absolute Truth and reality of the Blood of Christ and Its full acceptance by FATHER on our behalf.  We must never downplay Its importance in our battle with the adversary.  The Blood and the Name of Jesus are central to our walk on the Highway of Holiness and are the Source of our power and authority.  Let us not forget!
