GOD OR MAMMON WHO DO YOU WORSHIP 12-14-18 VIDEO ME WORSHIP

The definition of the word “worship” is to serve. To bow down before to take your identity from. Instead of just falling down and bowing before God on the outside, we worship and serve from the inside with all of our hearts.
Mammon means wealth, riches. It is not just as an object or a thing but mammon is an idol. The reaction to mammon is almost as if it had characteristics like a person. So who do you bow down before? Who owns your heart?

MATT 6:24 “How could you worship two gods at the same time? You will have to hate one and love the other, or be devoted to one and despise the other. You can’t worship the true God while enslaved to the god of money!” TPT

▼▼▼

Matt 6:24 No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will stand by and be devoted to the one and despise and be against the other. You cannot serve God and mammon (deceitful riches, money, possessions, or whatever is trusted in). AMP

MATT 19:21  Jesus said to him, “If you really want to be perfect, go immediately and sell everything you own. Give all your money to the poor and your treasure will be transferred into heaven. Then come back and follow me for the rest of your life.”

²² When the young man heard these words, he walked away angry, for he was extremely wealthy.

²³ Then Jesus turned to his disciples and said, “Listen. Do you understand how difficult it is for the rich to enter into heaven’s kingdom realm? TPT

MATT 4:8 And the third time the accuser lifted Jesus up into a very high mountain range and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and all the splendor that goes with it.

⁹ “All of these kingdoms I will give to you,” the accuser said, “if only you will kneel down before me and worship me.”

¹⁰ But Jesus said, “Go away, enemy! For the Scriptures say: Kneel before the Lord your God and worship only him.”

¹¹ At once the accuser left him, and angels suddenly gathered around Jesus to minister to his needs. TPT

Mark 14:3 And while He was in Bethany, [a guest] in the house of Simon the leper, as He was reclining [at table], a woman came with an alabaster jar of ointment (perfume) of pure nard, very costly and precious; and she broke the jar and poured [the perfume] over His head.

4 But there were some who were moved with indignation and said to themselves, To what purpose was the ointment (perfume) thus wasted?

5 For it was possible to have sold this [perfume] for more than 300 denarii [a laboring man’s wages for a year] and to have given [the money] to the poor. And they censured and reproved her.

6 But Jesus said, Let her alone; why are you troubling her? She has done a good and beautiful thing to Me [praiseworthy and noble]. AMP

Eccl 8:12 Though a sinner does evil a hundred times and his days [seemingly] are prolonged [in his wickedness], yet surely I know that it will be well with those who [reverently] fear God, who revere and worship Him, realizing His continual presence.

Eccl 8:12 Even though a person sins and gets by with it hundreds of times throughout a long life, I’m still convinced that the good life is reserved for the person who fears God, who lives reverently in his presence,

Rev 19:10 Then I fell prostrate at his feet to worship (to pay divine honors) to him, but he [restrained me] and said, Refrain! [You must not do that!] I am [only] another servant with you and your brethren who have [accepted and hold] the testimony borne by Jesus. Worship God!

REV 19:10 At this I fell facedown at the angel’s feet to worship him, but he stopped me and said, “Don’t do this! For I am only a fellow servant with you and one of your brothers and sisters who cling to what Jesus testifies. Worship God. The testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy. TPT

Phil 3:3 For we [Christians] are the true circumcision, who worship God in spirit and by the Spirit of God and exult and glory and pride ourselves in Jesus Christ, and put no confidence or dependence [on what we are] in the flesh and on outward privileges and physical advantages and external appearances. AMP

▼▼▼

Phil 3:3  For we have already experienced “heart-circumcision,” and we worship God in the power and freedom of the Holy Spirit, not in laws and religious duties. We are those who boast in what Jesus Christ has done, and not in what we can accomplish in our own strength. TPT

1 Chron 16:29 Ascribe to the Lord the glory due His name. Bring an offering and come before Him; worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness and in holy array.

John 4:23 But the time is coming — it has, in fact, come — when what you’re called will not matter and where you go to worship will not matter. “It’s who you are and the way you live that count before God. Your worship must engage your spirit in the pursuit of truth. That’s the kind of people the Father is out looking for: those who are simply and honestly themselves before him in their worship.

24 God is sheer being itself — Spirit. Those who worship him must do it out of their very being, their spirits, their true selves, in adoration.” MSG

▼▼▼

WE ARE RESPONSIBLE 12-9-18 VIDEO JESSE DUPLANTIS ADAM 2

Responsible – having an obligation, having control or care for someone as part of your job or roll. The body of Christ is responsible for the world situation today. We are looking to a few leaders but all of us have been given authority in Jesus name. Responsible comes from the word re-sponse meaning the act of responding. Just like our immune system response to all bad infections by removing them from our body. Reacting!

Gen 1:28 God blessed them: “Prosper! Reproduce! Fill Earth! Take charge! Be responsible for fish in the sea and birds in the air, for every living thing that moves on the face of Earth.”  

29 Then God said, “I’ve given you every sort of seed-bearing plant on Earth

And every kind of fruit-bearing tree, given them to you for food.

30 To all animals and all birds, everything that moves and breathes, I give whatever grows out of the ground for food.” And there it was. MSG

1 Peter 1:17 You call out to God for help and he helps — he’s a good Father that way. But don’t forget, he’s also a responsible Father, and won’t let you get by with sloppy living. Your life is a journey you must travel with a deep consciousness of God. MSG

Matt 5:14 You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden.

15 Nor do men light a lamp and put it under a peck measure, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all in the house.

Matt 5:14 “Your lives light up the world. Let others see your light from a distance, for how can you hide a city that stands on a hilltop?

¹⁵ And who would light a lamp and then hide it in an obscure place? Instead, it’s placed where everyone in the house can benefit from its light.

¹⁶ So don’t hide your light! Let it shine brightly before others, so that the commendable things you do will shine as light upon them, and then they will give their praise to your Father in heaven.” TPT

1 JN 3:17 If anyone sees a fellow believer in need and has the means to help him, yet shows no pity and closes his heart against him, how is it even possible that God’s love lives in him?

¹⁹ We know that the truth lives within us because we demonstrate love in action, which will reassure our hearts in his presence. TPT

GAL 3:26 You have all become true children of God by the faith of Jesus the Anointed One!

²⁷ It was faith that immersed you into Jesus, the Anointed One, and now you are covered and clothed with his anointing.

2 Cor 5:18 But all things are from God, Who through Jesus Christ reconciled us to Himself [received us into favor, brought us into harmony with Himself] and gave to us the ministry of reconciliation [that by word and deed we might aim to bring others into harmony with Him].

19 It was God [personally present] in Christ, reconciling and restoring the world to favor with Himself, not counting up and holding against [men] their trespasses [but cancelling them], and committing to us the message of reconciliation (of the restoration to favor).

20 So we are Christ’s ambassadors, God making His appeal as it were through us. We [as Christ’s personal representatives] beg you for His sake to lay hold of the divine favor [now offered you] and be reconciled to God. AMP

▼▼▼

2 COR 5:18 And God has made all things new, and reconciled us to himself, and given us the ministry of reconciling others to God.

¹⁹ In other words, it was through the Anointed One that God was shepherding the world, not even keeping records of their transgressions, and he has entrusted to us the ministry of opening the door of reconciliation to God.

²⁰ We are ambassadors of the Anointed One who carry the message of Christ to the world, as though God were tenderly pleading with them directly through our lips. So we tenderly plead with you on Christ’s behalf, “Turn back to God and be reconciled to him.” TPT

To be ambassadors for Christ means that we are his diplomatic agents of the highest rank sent to represent King Jesus and authorized to speak on his behalf. We are the voice of heaven to the earth, invested with royal power through the name of Jesus and authority of his blood.

“a special treasure” (possession). It is used to describe “guarded wealth,” indicating the placement of the king’s jewels, treasures, etc., in a safe, protected place because of their extraordinary value.

47 And if you greet only your brethren, what more than others are you doing? Do not even the Gentiles (the heathen) do that?

LIVING FROM EVERY WORD THAT PROCEEDS FROM THE MOUTH OF GOD 11-25-18 VIDEO BREAD DEEP THOUGHTS

Temptation was about “the Bread test”. It isn’t about what we create with our hands or our words but we live by every word spoken by God. If you are God’s sons. Satan told Jesus, hey you should be able to make something happen here. But Jesus said I live by what God has said. When David spoke of the word, it was more than the written law he was speaking of life. What God spoke to him fresh every day like Bread. He depended on God‘s word.

Matt 4:3 And the tempter came and said to Him, If You are God’s Son, command these stones to be made [loaves of] bread.

MATT 4:3 Then the tempter came to entice him to provide food by doing a miracle. So he said to Jesus, “How can you possibly be the Son of God and go hungry? Just order these stones to be turned into loaves of bread.”

¹⁷ but because their hearts fail to sink a deep root into the Word, they don’t endure for long. For when trouble or persecution comes on account of the Word, they immediately wilt and fall away.

¹⁸ And the seed sown among thorns represents those who hear the Word,

¹⁹ but they allow the cares of this life and the seduction of wealth and the desires for other things to crowd out and choke the Word so that it produces nothing.

BY FAITH IN FAITH 11-18-18 VIDEO faith breathes with voice

Faith is so powerful. It is a key for life. Faith is a real substance. Faith is more than what we think. Faith is alive— it is living. Faith stands by us and is in us. In faith and by faith Jesus gave his body and his blood before his death on the cross. His faith enabled him to go forward and die on the cross. Faith calls that which is not as though it has already happened.

Rom 1:17 For in the Gospel a righteousness which God ascribes is revealed, both springing from faith and leading to faith [disclosed through the way of faith that arouses to more faith]. As it is written, The man who through faith is just and upright shall live and shall live by faith. AMP

▼▼▼

ROM 1:17 This gospel unveils a continual revelation of God’s righteousness—a perfect righteousness given to us when we believe. And it moves us from receiving life through faith, to the power of living by faith. This is what the Scripture means when it says: “We are right with God through life-giving faith”TPT

Rom 4:19 He did not weaken in faith when he considered the [utter] impotence of his own body, which was as good as dead because he was about a hundred years old, or [when he considered] the barrenness of Sarah’s [deadened] womb. AMP

Rom 4:20 No unbelief or distrust made him waver (doubtingly question) concerning the promise of God, but he grew strong and was empowered by faith as he gave praise and glory to God,

21 Fully satisfied and assured that God was able and mighty to keep His word and to do what He had promised. AMP

▼▼▼

ROM 4:20 He never stopped believing God’s promise, for he was made strong in his faith to father a child. And because he was mighty in faith and convinced that God had all the power needed to fulfill his promises, Abraham glorified God! TPT

Heb 11:17 By faith, Abraham, at the time of testing, offered Isaac back to God. Acting in faith, he was as ready to return the promised son, his only son, as he had been to receive him — MSG

Rom 10:4 The earlier revelation was intended simply to get us ready for the Messiah, who then puts everything right for those who trust him to do it.

5 Moses wrote that anyone who insists on using the law code to live right before God soon discovers it’s not so easy — every detail of life regulated by fine print!

6 But trusting God to shape the right living in us is a different story — no precarious climb up to heaven to recruit the Messiah,

7 no dangerous descent into hell to rescue the Messiah.

8 So what exactly was Moses saying? The word that saves is right here, as near as the tongue in your mouth, as close as the heart in your chest. It’s the word of faith that welcomes God to go to work and set things right for us. This is the core of our preaching. MSG

9 Say the welcoming word to God — “Jesus is my Master” — embracing, body and soul, God’s work of doing in us what he did in raising Jesus from the dead. That’s it. You’re not “doing” anything; you’re simply calling out to God, trusting him to do it for you. That’s salvation.

10 With your whole being you embrace God setting things right, and then you say it, right out loud: “God has set everything right between him and me!”   MSG

Rom 10:17 So faith comes by hearing [what is told], and what is heard comes by the preaching [of the message that came from the lips] of Christ (the Messiah Himself). AMP

Rom 10:12 [No one] for there is no distinction between Jew and Greek. The same Lord is Lord over all [of us] and He generously bestows His riches upon all who call upon Him [in faith]. AMP

Rom 3:28 For we hold that a man is justified and made upright by faith independent of and distinctly apart from good deeds (works of the Law). [The observance of the Law has nothing to do with justification.] AMP

HEB 10:38 And he also says, “My righteous ones will live from my faith. But if fear holds them back, my soul is not content with them!” TPT

Gal 2:20 “My old identity has been co-crucified with Messiah and no longer lives; for the nails of his cross crucified me with him. And now the essence of this new life is no longer mine, for the Anointed One lives his life through me—we live in union as one! My new life is empowered by the faith of the Son of God who loves me so much that he gave himself for me, and dispenses his life into mine! TPT

MARK 11:22 Jesus replied, “Let the faith of God be in you!

²³ Listen to the truth I speak to you: If someone says to this mountain with great faith and having no doubt, ‘Mountain, be lifted up and thrown into the midst of the sea,’ and believes that what he says will happen, it will be done. TPT The mountain and the sea can also be metaphors. Mountains in the Bible can refer to kingdoms, and the sea represents the nations (e.g., “sea of humanity”). Faith lifts up and brings with us the “mountain” of God’s kingdom realm when we go into the nations.

Luke 17:6 But the Master said, “You don’t need more faith. There is no ‘more’ or ‘less’ in faith. If you have a bare kernel of faith, say the size of a poppy seed, you could say to this sycamore tree, ‘Go jump in the lake,’ and it would do it. MSG

Heb 11:1 NOW FAITH is the assurance (the confirmation, the title deed) of the things [we] hope for, being the proof of things [we] do not see and the conviction of their reality [faith perceiving as real fact what is not revealed to the senses].

2 For by [faith — trust and holy fervor born of faith] the men of old had divine testimony borne to them and obtained a good report.

3 By faith we understand that the worlds [during the successive ages] were framed (fashioned, put in order, and equipped for their intended purpose) by the word of God, so that what we see was not made out of things which are visible.

AMP   ▼▼▼

Heb 11:1 The fundamental fact of existence is that this trust in God, this faith, is the firm foundation under everything that makes life worth living. It’s our handle on what we can’t see.

2 The act of faith is what distinguished our ancestors, set them above the crowd.

3 By faith, we see the world called into existence by God’s word, what we see created by what we don’t see. MSG

▼▼▼

HEB 11:1  Now faith brings our hopes into reality and becomes the foundation needed to acquire the things we long for. It is all the evidence required to prove what is still unseen. This testimony of faith is what previous generations were commended for.

James 1:6 Only it must be in faith that he asks with no wavering (no hesitating, no doubting). For the one who wavers (hesitates, doubts) is like the billowing surge out at sea that is blown hither and thither and tossed by the wind. AMP   ▼▼▼

JAMES 1:6 Just make sure you ask empowered by confident faith without doubting that you will receive. For the ambivalent person believes one minute and doubts the next. Being undecided makes you become like the rough seas driven and tossed by the wind. You’re up one minute and tossed down the next. TPT

2 Cor 1:24 We’re not in charge of how you live out the faith, looking over your shoulders, suspiciously critical. We’re partners, working alongside you, joyfully expectant. I know that you stand by your own faith, not by ours. MSG

James 2:5 Listen, my beloved brethren: Has not God chosen those who are poor in the eyes of the world to be rich in faith and in their position as believers and to inherit the kingdom which He has promised to those who love Him? AMP

1 Thess 5:8 But not us! Since we’re creatures of Day, let’s act like it. Walk out into the daylight sober, dressed up in faith, love, and the hope of salvation. MSG

Matt 26:26 Now as they were eating, Jesus took bread and, praising God, gave thanks and asked Him to bless it to their use, and when He had broken it, He gave it to the disciples and said, Take, eat; this is My body.

27 And He took a cup, and when He had given thanks, He gave it to them, saying, Drink of it, all of you;

28 For this is My blood of the new covenant, which [ratifies the agreement and] is being poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins. AMP

John 6:53 And Jesus said to them, I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, you cannot have any life in you unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood [unless you appropriate His life and the saving merit of His blood].

2 Thess 1:11 Because we know that this extraordinary day is just ahead, we pray for you all the time — pray that our God will make you fit for what he’s called you to be, pray that he’ll fill your good ideas and acts of faith with his own energy so that it all amounts to something. MSG

JESUS-all about Him (THE MAN WITH THE BURING EYES) 11-11-18

VIDEO JESUS IS 2

PROPHETIC WORD FROM MIKE BICKLE: We stand at the crossroads of history. I urged you to prayerfully read the entire contents of this letter, as I am gripped with the rare urgency in my spirit. Opportunities for revival and spiritual breakthrough exist at almost incomprehensible levels along toxic distractions and soul numbing passivity. Cultural decay is dragging our young people into the gutters of oppression and perversion. War on the saints is escalating as a nations heave in the throes of crisis, birth pains, political correctness. Even so I am filled with hope! If we lean into Jesus, on his terms revival could be more swiftly than a raging windswept grass fire at the height of summer. These are true historic days.
However, to be properly position we must take a hard look in the mirror. Too much of our charismatic rhetoric has become both anemic and insufficient relative to the coming storm. Charismatic conferences have been wonderful and useful for many years, but now risk missing the point entirely if they are not deeply attune to the whispering voice of the Holy Spirit. When the cloud of fire disrupt camp to move us into a new territory, we must follow. Times and season of change: if we discern the spirits leading in this we are compelled to obey even if it requires disruption.
I am convinced that we stand on the precipice of a new era in prayer Prophetic, and missions movement. I want to boldly but tenderly say our house is on fire. I mean our nation, the church, society itself. I’m not OK with this and I certainly do not speak in a critical or in a gloating tone. As a shepherd, accountable to God, I feel burdened to speak the truth that I perceive. So let me be even more plan. For years I have said trouble is coming. Now I feel I must say differently: trouble is here. This means the days and years ahead will be of a different caliber of difficulty and complexity then anything we’ve ever known in the past. The new normal will not look like the heyday of the 80s and the 90s. It will be more challenging than people expect but the kingdom opportunities are far beyond what we can imagine.
I need to be very clear on this: nobody has done anything wrong. Yet incrementally, I feel we’ve missed the mark by leaning more on the brilliant marquees then on the man with the burning eyes. This year we are deliberately returning to the mystery of what if? What if God interrupts our plans? What is the Holy Spirit took over? What if we lavish or affection and attention on Him above all of the concerns? What if we become consumed with the one thing all over again? We’re going to plan around the supreme goal and take our chances. Rather than exulting human personalities and celebrity voices, we are deliberately re-centering around the consuming reality of Jesus. His agenda for planet earth His ownership. If we wanna everything God would give the human spirit in this hour of history, a short term, conference buzz can do longer suffice.
I urge you not to miss the signals that the Holy Spirit is giving the church in this hour. These days are great f high transition. God is speaking, but His whisper to demands revelation and unique focus. Voluntarily choose to adjust your life’s Signal-to-noise ratio. The global prayer movement is entering into it’s next critical phase, going far beyond the theater of an event into the Father’s deep desire for total supremacy of his Son to be known among the nations and to raise up a close knit family who deeply values and love one another.

Gal 3:1 You crazy Galatians! Did someone put a hex on you? Have you taken leave of your senses? Something crazy has happened, for it’s obvious that you no longer have the crucified Jesus in clear focus in your lives. His sacrifice on the Cross was certainly set before you clearly enough. MSG

Rev 2:4 But I have this [one charge to make] against you: that you have left (abandoned) the love that you had at first [you have deserted Me, your first love].

HIS GOODNESS LASTS FOREVER 11-9-18 VIDEO

Goodness How God describes Himself. God has a treasure of good for His own. He indeed treats His children differently from those who are not. Graciously, joyful, kindly, loving, merry, most, pleasant, pleasure, precious, prosperity, wealth, welfare, “glad” heart. GOOD-goodness, integrity: does good and kindness

It is He (Father God) who wear His goodness like a royal robe around Him and He covers us with that. When Moses asked to see the Lord in His glory he saw His goodness. The Lord came down from heaven and even though Moses face was hidden in the cleft of the rock. He came down and stood beside him and showed Himself to Moses while Moses stood upon the Rock.

Ex 33:19 And God said, I will make all My goodness pass before you, and I will proclaim My name, THE LORD, before you; for I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show mercy and loving-kindness on whom I will show mercy and loving-kindness.  

20 But, He said, You can not see My face, for no man shall see Me and live.

21 And the Lord said, Behold, there is a place beside Me, and you shall stand upon the rock,

22 And while My glory passes by, I will put you in a cleft of the rock and cover you with My hand until I have passed by.   AMP

Ex 33:19 God said, “I will make my Goodness pass right in front of you; I’ll call out the name, God, right before you. I’ll treat well whomever I want to treat well and I’ll be kind to whomever I want to be kind.”

20 God continued, “But you may not see my face. No one can see me and live.”

21 God said, “Look, here is a place right beside me. Put yourself on this rock.

22 When my Glory passes by, I’ll put you in the cleft of the rock and cover you with my hand until I’ve passed by. MSG

2 Cor 3:10 Indeed, in view of this fact, what once had splendor [the glory of the Law in the face of Moses] has come to have no splendor at all, because of the overwhelming glory that exceeds and excels it [the glory of the Gospel in the face of Jesus Christ]. AMP

VIDEO RICH TRANSFER

A key is to realize who you really are as a son of God. As an heir of salvation. The fruit will show in your life and you will accomplish more. We are from Christ we are his seed. His heirs of the promise not the law. We will rest in Him, trust in Him, walk with Him and know who we are. SONS! Our fruit we remain and we will accomplish much for the kingdom.

Ps 71:18 Yes, even when I am old and gray-headed, O God, forsake me not, [but keep me alive] until I have declared Your mighty strength to [this] generation, and Your might and power to all that are to come. AMP

PS 71:18 God, now that I’m old and gray, don’t walk away. Give me grace to demonstrate to the next generation all your mighty miracles and your excitement, to show them your magnificent power! TPT

Gal 3:16 Now the promises (covenants, agreements) were decreed and made to Abraham and his Seed (his Offspring, his Heir). He [God] does not say, And to seeds (descendants, heirs), as if referring to many persons, but, And to your Seed (your Descendant, your Heir), obviously referring to one individual, Who is [none other than] Christ (the Messiah). AMP

▼▼▼

GAL 3:16  Remember the royal proclamation God spoke over Abraham and to Abraham’s child? God said that his promises were made to pass on to Abraham’s “Child,” not children. And who is this “Child?” It’s the Son of promise, Jesus, the anointed Messiah! TPT

Gal 3:26 For in Christ Jesus you are all sons of God through faith.

27 For as many [of you] as were baptized into Christ [into a spiritual union and communion with Christ, the Anointed One, the Messiah] have put on (clothed yourselves with) Christ.

28 There is [now no distinction] neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is not male and female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

29 And if you belong to Christ [are in Him Who is Abraham’s Seed], then you are Abraham’s offspring and [spiritual] heirs according to promise. AMP ▼▼▼

GAL 3:26 You have all become true children of God by the faith of Jesus the Anointed One!

²⁷ It was faith that immersed you into Jesus, the Anointed One, and now you are covered and clothed with his anointing.

²⁸ And we no longer see each other in our former state—Jew or non-Jew, rich or poor, male or female—because we’re all one through our union with Jesus Christ with no distinction between us.

²⁹ And since you’ve been united to Jesus the Messiah, you are now Abraham’s “child” and inherit all the promises of the kingdom realm! TPT

Gen 22:17 In blessing I will bless you and in multiplying I will multiply your descendants like the stars of the heavens and like the sand on the seashore. And your Seed (Heir) will possess the gate of His enemies,

Gen 22:17 I’ll bless you — oh, how I’ll bless you! And I’ll make sure that your children flourish — like stars in the sky! like sand on the beaches! And your descendants will defeat their enemies.

RO 8:17 And since we are his true children, we qualify to share all his treasures, for indeed, we are heirs of God himself.

Rom 8:14 For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God.

15 For [the Spirit which] you have now received [is] not a spirit of slavery to put you once more in bondage to fear, but you have received the Spirit of adoption [the Spirit producing sonship] in [the bliss of] which we cry, Abba (Father)! Father!

16 The Spirit Himself [thus] testifies together with our own spirit, [assuring us] that we are children of God.

17 And if we are [His] children, then we are [His] heirs also: heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ [sharing His inheritance with Him]; only we must share His suffering if we are to share His glory. AMP

ROM 8:14 The mature children of God are those who are moved by the impulses of the Holy Spirit.

¹⁵ And you did not receive the “spirit of religious duty,” leading you back into the fear of never being good enough. But you have received the “Spirit of full acceptance,” enfolding you into the family of God. And you will never feel orphaned, for as he rises up within us, our spirits join him in saying the words of tender affection, “Beloved Father!”

¹⁶ For the Holy Spirit makes God’s fatherhood real to us as he whispers into our innermost being, “You are God’s beloved child!”

¹⁷ And since we are his true children, we qualify to share all his treasures, for indeed, we are heirs of God himself. And since we are joined to Christ, we also inherit all that he is and all that he has. We will experience being co-glorified with him provided that we accept his sufferings as our own TPT

Matt 11:28 “Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest.

Heb 4:1 For as long, then, as that promise of resting in him pulls us on to God’s goal for us, we need to be careful that we’re not disqualified. MSG

▼▼▼

HEB 4:1 Now God has offered to us the same promise of entering into his realm of resting in confident faith. So we must be extremely careful to ensure that we all embrace the fullness of that promise and not fail to experience it. TPT

Heb 4:8 And so this is still a live promise. It wasn’t canceled at the time of Joshua; otherwise, God wouldn’t keep renewing the appointment for “today.”

9 The promise of “arrival” and “rest” is still there for God’s people.

10 God himself is at rest. And at the end of the journey we’ll surely rest with God. 11 So let’s keep at it and eventually arrive at the place of rest, not drop out through some sort of disobedience. MSG

▼▼▼

HEB 4:8 Now if this promise of “rest” was fulfilled when Joshua brought the people into the land, God wouldn’t have spoken later of another “rest” yet to come.

⁹ So we conclude that there is still a full and complete “rest” waiting for believers to experience.

¹⁰ As we enter into God’s faith-rest life we cease from our own works, just as God celebrates his finished works and rests in them.

¹¹ So then we must give our all and be eager to experience this faith-rest life, so that no one falls short by following the same pattern of doubt and unbelief. TPT

Isa 30:15 God, the Master, The Holy of Israel, has this solemn counsel:

“Your salvation requires you to turn back to me and stop your silly efforts to save yourselves. Your strength will come from settling down in complete dependence on me — The very thing you’ve been unwilling to do.

Isa 30:16 And you said, No! We will speed [our own course] on horses! Therefore you will speed [in flight from your enemies]! You said, We will ride upon swift steeds [doing our own way]! Therefore will they who pursue you be swift, [so swift that]

17 One thousand of you will flee at the threat of one of them; at the threat of five you will flee till you are left like a beacon or a flagpole on the top of a mountain, and like a signal on a hill. AMP

▼▼▼

Isa 30:16 You’ve said, ‘Nothing doing! We’ll rush off on horseback!’ You’ll rush off, all right! Just not far enough! You’ve said, ‘We’ll ride off on fast horses!’ Do you think your pursuers ride old nags?

17 Think again: A thousand of you will scatter before one attacker. Before a mere five you’ll all run off. There’ll be nothing left of you — a flagpole on a hill with no flag, a signpost on a roadside with the sign torn off.” MSG

Isa 30:18 And therefore the Lord [earnestly] waits [expecting, looking, and longing] to be gracious to you; and therefore He lifts Himself up, that He may have mercy on you and show loving-kindness to you. For the Lord is a God of justice. Blessed (happy, fortunate, to be envied) are all those who [earnestly] wait for Him, who expect and look and long for Him [for His victory, His favor, His love, His peace, His joy, and His matchless, unbroken companionship]!   AMP

TRUTH, THE WHOLE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH 10-19-18

VIDEO SPOKEN WORD TRUTH 2

2000 years ago “the Truth” was put on trial. In a course of one day “Truth” stood before the high priest, the Sanhedrin and finally before Pilate. “The Truth” was lied about, abused, spat upon, and put to death on the cross. But nothing and no one could stop it! Jesus is “the Truth”. “The Truth” has a name, Jesus. So “The Truth” is not a bunch of ideas, it is a person. No one gets to the father without Truth.   The spirit of truth leads all man to him whose name is “the Truth“. Everything that is in the written word or the rhema word is truth because Jesus is Truth.

Everyone who is of the Truth [who is a friend of the Truth, who belongs to the Truth] hears and listens to My voice.

38 Pilate said to Him, What is Truth? On saying this he went out to the Jews again and told them, I find no fault in Him. AMP

John 18:37 Then Pilate said, “So, are you a king or not?” Jesus answered, “You tell me. Because I am King, I was born and entered the world so that I could witness to the truth. Everyone who cares for truth, who has any feeling for the truth, recognizes my voice.”

The Aramaic word, taybootha, means “loving kindness or goodness.” The Greek word is charis, which can also be translated, “grace, favor, sweetness, pleasure or delight.” The translator has combined all those concepts in the words tender mercy.
