"THAT CONTAINER IS LYING ABOUT ITS CONTENTS"

Matthew 7:15, “Be on your guard against false prophets; they come to you LOOKING LIKE SHEEP on the OUTSIDE, but on the INSIDE they are really like wild WOLVES.” (GNT) My two favorite seasons are Winter and Fall! Winter, because I love Christmas, snow, carols, decorations and the like. And Fall, because I love the colors, Thanksgiving, the start of the scent of fireplaces, but most of all,…

Men and Women in Creation

14 Points from Genesis that emphasize male-female differentiation What does it mean to be a man? What does it mean to be a woman? While it seems that this discussion is a fruitless endeavor that results in people only stating their personal preferences, we do find an objective perspective given to us in the first three chapters of Genesis that demonstrate the essential equality of men and…

Yo. No one can take you from Gods hand or separate you from His love. We got life through Him. He loves you, and I do too. I hear Him saying “rest in my promises” because someone out there needed to hear that.

Deceitful Practices

by Aiden Wilson Tozer

For such men are false apostles, deceitful workmen, masquerading as apostles of Christ. And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. - 2 Corinthians 11:13-14

Still other deadly sins exist within the very circles that make pretense of the most advanced type of godliness; such, for instance, as professing great compassion for the sick, conducting giant meetings for the purpose of bringing healing to them, but slyly separating the hopeless cases from those less serious and more susceptible to psychological impressions, and all the while growing rich on the miseries and pains of humanity. Some of these prophets own large estates, drive huge cars and boast of fabulous wealth tied up in equipment, while the suffering multitudes whose blood they suck hobble or crawl or are carried to meetings. Investigation of one such man carried on by some godly pastors revealed that he had been hiring healthy persons to come up for prayer and pretend to be healed. This was done, he explained when faced with the deed, to "encourage weak faith." Thus lying and deception were deliberately made a part of the purported methods of the Holy Spirit. Others base everything on the power of money and personality, yet testify that they are trusting wholly in the power of the Spirit. And many introduce into their religious work every gimmick known to the world, and so destroy the very thing they profess to cherish. It is sufficient evidence of the moral insensibility of such men that they violently resent even the mention of these things; and it is further proof of the success of their methods that the very public they have betrayed will rush to defend them.

Matthew 5:21-22 – “You have heard that it was said to the ancient ones, ‘You shall not murder;’ and ‘Whoever shall murder shall be in danger of the judgment.’ But I tell you, that everyone…

We begin this program exalting the name of our Heavenly Father, the Great Jehovah, bringing Him the reverence and honor He so deserves.

Stare Yourself Deaf | Eric Gilmour [2 Corinthians 13:5]

The more attention we give to JESUS the higher HE will become in our lives—if you look at Acts 1 this is the ascension of JESUS.

Though this physically took place, HE actually ascended in front of them. There is a spiritual implication, I believe we can pull from this for our daily lives

v.9 it says that after HE had said these things, HE's lifted up while they were looking at HIM. They were looking at HIM & HE was lifted up..

HE was lifted up while they were look -ing at HIM, I'm trying to tell you that as we keep our attention & our gaze

fixed upon CHRIST, HE will rise higher & higher & higher in our lives higher than all the things around us

higher than all the things going on in our government or in our nation— higher than ourselves & others..

This is what is the greatest need is

for CHRIST to be above everything else including ourselves in our hearts

• we don't trust ourselves for guidance • we don't trust ourselves for obedience • we don't obey ourselves

We let CHRIST be lifted higher than us & others

This is happening in the heart that continually looks unto JESUS. Moses endured seeing HIM WHO was unseen.

1.] Focus on JESUS, HE becomes Supreme

So number one JESUS is lifted by staring at HIM, the LORD said to me a couple months back, HE said stare yourself deaf.

I didn't know that a tumult & a torrential downpour of voices from the enemy would come to me & surround me.

it felt like they were in me & above me & around me—I didn't even know that was coming. But JESUS said before this enemy voice attack in my life,

HE said stare yourself deaf

We can look at JESUS so intently that we can't hear the voice of the enemy, and I would say also—the more we remove our attention from the LORD JESUS, the more we will hear the voice of the enemy

And as David says

My soul is restless because of the voice of the enemies. Let us stare ourselves deaf — this means giving CHRIST the highest place above everything.

That's going on everybody, around us & express it & especially above ourselves that's the one because the presence of GOD is experienced by those who are not focused on themselves!

In other words, consciousness of GOD's presence

Praise GOD! Consciousness of GOD's presence comes when we're no longer conscious of our -selves

—we forget ourselves that we might see HIM, oh in order for the bride to come out of herself—she must forget herself

O looking unto JESUS

2.] Long For HIS Return

But look what happens next v.10 & as they were gazing intently at the LORD—as they are gazing intently, they hear of the 2nd coming.

The Angels say,

“This JESUS, WHOM has been taken up into Heaven will come just in the same way as you've watched HIM go.”

In other words, they receive a revelation of the coming of the LORD by staring at the LORD!

I want to submit to you that the more intently we gaze upon CHRIST—not only will HE be lifted higher than everything else in ourselves

—but also we will feel HIS second coming!

Maranatha pumps through the veins of those who stare at the KING, if the KING has all our attention then we expect anticipate & long for HIS coming! Praise GOD!

3.] Union with CHRIST Intercede for Others

Lastly v.14 when they return home from gazing intently upon the LORD, it says they continually devoted themselves to prayer!

They continually devoted themselves to prayer

So I feel like the life of prayer

a life that is bathed in prayer literally overwhelmed in unbroken conscious union with the LORD & soaking other things in prayer whatever we do

we're doing it all with thanksgiving unto the LORD & offering it to the LORD & bathing everything in prayer

it comes from a heart set & fixed upon the MAN CHRIST JESUS & feeling the fact that HE is returning

............................................................................. I would say that we are not a people of prayer to the degree we don't recognize HE's returning &

we are not a people of prayer to the degree HE's not lifted above everything around us & ourselves by gazing intently at HIM. .............................................................................

Those who pray are the ones who are looking unto JESUS, is in the life of prayer.

I've defined prayer often as conscious union just literally conscious of my union with HIM established by HIM, sustained by HIM.

I read in valley vision this morning that HIS work is everything--mine is to cling to HIM WHO is everything..

So all this to say:

if we will look unto JESUS & stay fixed steady staring, we will stare ourselves deaf! HE will be lifted high above all other things

We will feel & tremble with the expectation & anticipation of the return of the LORD & this'll make us a people of prayer!

Yes communion with GOD first & communion with GOD is the heart but also intercession praying for those that GOD has entrusted to us--it's just the highest delight!

I've often said that the essence of intercession is when the tears of CHRIST in Heaven come through my eyes on the Earth

or when the voice of the great intercessor in Heaven is echoed in the Earth by our lips!!!

4.] Closing Prayer

So FATHER thank YOU so much for the simplicity of this--that we can look unto JESUS & be saved & live in salvation & experience this wonderful & glorious salvation!

I praise YOU LORD!

I pray LORD, that YOU do something fresh; & every viewer show us where our gaze has been deviated or inconsistent & LORD show us the liberty & joy & peace & fulfillment that comes from just looking at YOU!

In YOUR precious Name, amen

P.S. You know one more thing just popped up in my mind in 2 Corinthians 13, Paul says this amazing thing he says examine yourselves!

to see if you're in the faith, he's literally just said you can look on the inside & see whether or not you are born again.

He says right here in v.5 test yourselves to see if you were in the faith, examine yourself..

• think & look at your own life • look at your internals • look at what you are

Then he says this or do you not recognize this about yourself that JESUS CHRIST is in you. He is showing us that the evidence of having been born again is the recognition of CHRIST's Presence!

O the recognition of CHRIST's presence that is not only salvation itself because HE saved us from a life apart from HIMSELF,

But it is HIM WHO is salvation!

possessed

This is something that is perceived, we perceive our possession of HIM WHO gave HIMSELF to us that is the evidence & the anchor of our faith.

The MAN CHRIST JESUS, not just theologically but actually! Praise GOD! Thank YOU LORD for this in the HOLY GHOST, I pray that those of you that are watching that you would sense & feel this reality. JESUS CHRIST is in you!

Praise GOD, hey join us on Tuesday nights at 7 p.m we sit together & we read the Scriptures & wait on the LORD & we've been going through Psalm 119

it's been incredible marked by the presence of the LORD. Join us, I'll put a link down below if you want to become one of our patreon supporters & joined the mentoring group. GOD bless you guys

[2 Corinthians 13:5; 2 Peter 1:10-11]

• 2 Corinthians 13:5 | Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test your selves. Can’t you see for yourselves JESUS CHRIST is in you—unless you actually fail the test?

• 2 Peter 1:10-11 | Therefore, brothers, be all the more eager to make your calling & election sure. For if you practice these things you will never stumble,¹¹ & you will receive a lavish reception into the eternal Kingdom of our LORD & SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST.

"THE IMPORTANCE OF UNDERSTANDING AND KNOWLEDGE"

THE HOLY SPIRIT’S WORK IN JEREMIAH: God’s call and anointing upon Jeremiah’s life as a prophet began in the womb. God reveals to Jeremiah, “Before I formed you in the womb I knew [and] approved of you [as My chosen instrument], and before you were born I separated and set you apart, consecrating you; [and] I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.” (Jeremiah 1:5 AMPC). This reveals that the…

FAITH!

• “Now FAITH is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.” —Hebrews 11:1

• “And without FAITH it is impossible to please God because anyone who comes to Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him.” —Hebrews 11:6

• “I tell you the truth, if you have FAITH as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.” —Matthew 17:20

• “Fight the good fight of the FAITH. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made your good confession in the presence of many witnesses. ” —1 Timothy 6:12

• “We live by FAITH not by sight.” —2 Corinthians 5:7

• “Be on your guard; stand firm in the FAITH; be men of courage, be strong.” —1 Corinthians 16:13

Faith is the most important gift a Christian has (other than Salvation in Jesus Christ and God’s Word: The God-breathed, Spirit-filled Holy Bible). With God and faith, the impossible can become the possible. Hebrews chapter 11 (https://bible.com/bible/116/heb.11.NLT) is all about the faith of people in the Bible: Abel, Enoch, Noah, Abraham, Sarah, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Moses (and his parents), Rahab and the people of Israel! And these are just the people mentioned in Hebrews 11! There are many more ordinary people throughout the Bible who were chosen by God and, by faith (and with God’s help), did amazing, miraculous things.

Friend (just like the people in the Bible), with faith and God’s help, there is nothing you and God can't achieve together. Keep seeking God’s will, keep praying, keep believing (Lk 11:9-10, Mk 11:24) and you will see miracles begin to happen. Amen and Hallelujah! 🙌🙌🙌

Wonderfully Made

You are fearfully and wonderfully made. Never forget this. God shaped you and still is specifically designing you. Never let someone steal your identity through peer pressure. You belong to God. Stand out and be who He created you to be.

Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex! Your workmanship is marvelous—how well I know it. You watched me as I was being formed in utter seclusion, as I was woven together in the dark of the womb. You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed. How precious are your thoughts about me, O God. They…

Can You Imagine a New Earth?

Today is a gorgeous fall day. There is bright sun and a warm breeze. It is wonderful. It is also just the remnant of the good things that God placed in the original creation. Sit outside long enough and you will notice the results of the “curse”. Probably some insects will find you eventually and they will harass if not bite you. The sun might get too warm. Stay long enough and you will get…

Filter Needed

For my full-time job, I work at cleaning and maintaining swimming pools. In order to do this well, I will go to each of the pools I maintain on a weekly basis. I begin with emptying the skimmer baskets of any debris in them. Then I will skim the top of the water for any leaves or other debris floating on the water. Next is emptying out the pump basket and checking the chemical levels in the pool,…
