“JUST SAYING”  10-30-22  PLANT BEING BULLIED

HOPE 9-25-2022 VIDEO

The world is not expecting good but evil. A loss of hope makes people lose out on their future and destiny. Deferred- means to be postponed, withheld for another time.

Rom 4:18 When everything was hopeless, Abraham believed anyway, deciding to live not on the basis of what he saw he couldn’t do but on what God said he would do. And so he was made father of a multitude of peoples. God himself said to him, “You’re going to have a big family, Abraham!”

19 Abraham didn’t focus on his own impotence and say, “It’s hopeless. This hundred-year-old body could never father a child.” Nor did he survey Sarah’s decades of infertility and give up.

20 He didn’t tiptoe around God’s promise asking cautiously skeptical questions. He plunged into the promise and came up strong, ready for God,

21 sure that God would make good on what he had said.

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

22 That is why his faith was credited to him as righteousness (right standing with God).

23 But [the words], It was credited to him, were written not for his sake alone,

ENTER IN 9-23-22  VIDEO a fresh presence 2

God has invited us by the power of the Holy Spirit to enter into His presence. Not just for a moment or a day but for every day of our lives. We’re invited to enter into the presence of the Lord with full confidence. Our prayer in times of trouble allow us to enter into His presence. We enter in through what is already been done by Christ and His blood sacrifice. To enter means to come in to stay to be comforted or to be comfortable. Our youth is renewed in the presence of God. When you gather together in His name, He is in the midst of us right there!

Heb 6:19 [Now] we have this [hope] as a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul [it cannot slip and it cannot break down under whoever steps out upon it — a hope] that reaches farther and enters into [the very certainty of the Presence] within the veil,  AMP   ▼▼▼▼▼▼

21 And since we have [such] a great and wonderful and noble Priest [Who rules] over the house of God,

22 Let us all come forward and draw near with true (honest and sincere) hearts in unqualified assurance and absolute conviction engendered by faith (by that leaning of the entire human personality on God in absolute trust and confidence in His power, wisdom, and goodness), having our hearts sprinkled and purified from a guilty (evil) conscience and our bodies cleansed with pure water.

HEB 10:19 So, fellow family, what the blood of Jesus communicates, seals our immediate access into this ultimate place of sacred encounter, with unashamed confidence.

21 We have a High Priest in the house!

22 We are free to approach God with absolute confidence, fully persuaded in our hearts that nothing can any longer separate us. We are invited to draw near now! We are thoroughly cleansed, inside and out, with no trace of sin’s stains on our conscience or conduct.

BEYOND OUR CIRCUMSTANCES 9-18-22  VIDEO TYLER PERRY NO ANXIETY 2

If our spirituality matters, it matters most when we’re under pressure. Pressure makes us feel alone. When we dwell on circumstances and all of the tiny details, we become introspective and circumstantial. We pray to God hoping to draw Him into our circumstance. Telling Him things He already knows. We don’t have to live in our circumstances or our limitations because we live in Christ. When circumstances press us we go to the secret place.  In our secret place, God separates us from our circumstances. Jesus often went alone to talk with the Father.  When trials or circumstances have us down we use our authority in Jesus name.

Heb 13:5 Let your character or moral disposition be free from love of money [including greed, avarice, lust, and craving for earthly possessions] and be satisfied with your present [circumstances and with what you have]; for He [God] Himself has said, I will not in any way fail you nor give you up nor leave you without support. [I will] not, [I will] not, [I will] not in any degree leave you helpless nor forsake nor let [you] down (relax My hold on you)! [Assuredly not!]  AMP

ROM 8:28 Meanwhile we know that the love of God causes everything to mutually contribute to our advantage. His Master Plan is announced in our original identity.  

29  He pre-designed and engineered us from the start to be jointly fashioned in the same mold and image of his Son according to the exact blueprint of his thought. We see the original and intended pattern of our lives preserved in his Son. He is the firstborn from the same womb that reveals our genesis. He confirms that we are the invention of God.

30 Jesus reveals that we pre-existed in God; he defined us. He rendered us innocent and also adorned us with splendor and esteem.

CONFESSION BRINGS POSSESSION  9-16-2022 VIDEO big but

When you confess any of the promises of God you keep confessing them until you possess in fully.

Only Joshua and Caleb believe the promise of the Lord spoken over them by Moses. Joshua and Caleb had a confession. The result of wrong confession was the children of Israel took 40 years to enter the entire promised land. Our words are the spirit of our faith. We give actions that go long with our confession. Things that we say we will eventually believe. And the things we believe will be the things that we receive. Take Hold of your answers not the problem. Angels are sent to listen to the words that we confess and help us by our confession. They will position you for your words to come to pass.

Num 13:27 They told Moses, We came to the land to which you sent us; surely it flows with milk and honey. This is its fruit. 

28 But the people who dwell there are strong, and the cities are fortified and very large; moreover, there we saw the sons of Anak [of great stature and courage]. 

29 Amalek dwells in the land of the South (the Negeb); the Hittite, the Jebusite, and the Amorite dwell in the hill country; and the Canaanite dwells by the sea and along by the side of the Jordan [River]. 

30 Caleb quieted the people before Moses, and said, Let us go up at once and possess it; we are well able to conquer it. 

31 But his fellow scouts said, We are not able to go up against the people [of Canaan], for they are stronger than we are. 

32 So they brought the Israelites an evil report of the land which they had scouted out, saying, The land through which we went to spy it out is a land that devours its inhabitants. And all the people that we saw in it are men of great stature. 

33 There we saw the Nephilim [or giants], the sons of Anak, who come from the giants; and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight.  AMP

Num 14:6 And Joshua son of Nun and Caleb son of Jephunneh, who were among the scouts who had searched the land, rent their clothes, 

7 And they said to all the company of Israelites, The land through which we passed as scouts is an exceedingly good land. 

8 If the Lord delights in us, then He will bring us into this land and give it to us, a land flowing with milk and honey. 

9 Only do not rebel against the Lord, neither fear the people of the land, for they are bread for us. Their defense and the shadow [of protection] is removed from over them, but the Lord is with us. Fear them not.   AMP

Heb 4:1 THEREFORE, WHILE the promise of entering His rest still holds and is offered [today], let us be afraid [to distrust it], lest any of you should think he has come too late and has come short of [reaching] it.

2 For indeed we have had the glad tidings [Gospel of God] proclaimed to us just as truly as they [the Israelites of old did when the good news of deliverance from bondage came to them]; but the message they heard did not benefit them, because it was not mixed with faith (with the leaning of the entire personality on God in absolute trust and confidence in His power, wisdom, and goodness) by those who heard it; neither were they united in faith with the ones [Joshua and Caleb] who heard (did believe). AMP

▼▼▼

HEB 4:1 What a foolish thing it would be if we should now fail in a similar fashion to enter into his rest, where we get to celebrate the full consequences of our redemption.  

2 What God has now spoken to us in Jesus confirms that we were equally included in the prophetic message which was proclaimed to our ancestors; their unbelief disqualified them from possessing the promise; they could not make the vital connection with the promise while they remained enslaved to their dwarfed opinions of themselves! Because the word did not mingle with faith, there was no catalyst to ignite its effect in their hearts, and so the promise did not profit them at all.  MIRROR

THE GREAT AWAKENING OF THE CHURCH  9-11-22

VIDEO AMERICAS FIRST GREAT AWAKING  

Great awakening refers to times of revival especially in American Christian churches. There is a trumpet call awakening the American churches from the complacency and move them to overcome and be victorious. The birth of the church was on Pentecost. Prior to the Holy Spirit‘s infusion, the body believers were gathered in a room waiting to not just see but feel the power of the Spirit. Like the dry bones the church was awakened and ended up moving.

Acts 2:1 And finally the day of Pentecost arrived. They were all assembled in the same place. Meanwhile the harvest day feast was “in full swing”.

2 There was a sudden, roaring sound of a gust of a raging wind out of the heavenly realm – the atmosphere within the entire house was filled to the brim with the “breath of God.

3 Then, what appeared to be flaming tongues of fire, divided and settled upon each one of them.

4 And everyone was infused and permeated in Holy Spirit and spontaneously began to speak in a language they have never learned before. They uttered the exact words the Spirit prompted within them.

5 Residing in Jerusalem at the time, there were ‘derout Pilgrims, who embraced the goodness of God. They were from many different and distant lands.

6 Hearing the sound of this orchestra of voices speaking different languages, the multitudes rushed together. They were baffled to hear their own mother tongue dialect spoken fluently by the disciples of Jesus.

7 They were totally blown away with wonder and kept saying to one another how completely odd it was, especially since the people speaking, were all Galileans. MIRROR

Acts 2:16 This is what was prophesied by Joel,

17 In the conclusion of time says God, ‘from out of myself, I will infuse my Spirit upon all flesh. And your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams

18 Indeed, in those days I infuse my Spirit from my inmost self, upon my male and female bond servants.   MIRROR

EPH 2:20 Your lives now give tangible definition to the spiritual structure, having been built into it by God upon the foundation of the Prophets and Apostles. Jesus Christ himself is the chief cornerstone.

21 In him everyone of us are like living Lego blocks fitted together of the same fabric, giving ever increasing articulation to a global mobile sanctuary intertwined in the Lord.

22 In him you are co-constructed together as God’s permanent spiritual residence. You are God’s address!  MIRROR

Hebrews 12:23 And as members of the church of the Firstborn all our names have been legally registered as citizens of heaven! And we have come before God who judges all, and who lives among the spirits of the righteous who have been made perfect in his eyes!

²⁴And we have come to Jesus who established a new covenant with his blood sprinkled upon the mercy seat; blood that continues to speak from heaven, “forgiveness,” a better message than Abel’s blood that cries from the earth, “justice.”  TPT

▼▼▼

HEB 12:23 We are participating in a mass joint-celebration of heavenly and earthly beings; the Ekklesia-church of the firstborn mirror-inscribed in the heavenlies.This is endorsed by Jesus, patterned in him, the first born from the dead.

24 Jesus is the spokesman and arbitrator of the New Testament order. His blood signature sanctions mankind’s innocence. This is a complete new language that communicates better things, in that it is the very substance of what was spoken in the shadow-type message of the blood sacrifice that Abel brought.  MIRROR

Kaleo-to identify by the name endorsed by Jesus, patterned in him. He’s the first born from the dead. We have become complacent we have been robbed. The revelation we see in various churches but their passion needs to be stirred and to awaken again. The purpose of the church is to invade society at the greatest place of need. We are to effect the nations. We are going to increase as a body not just in size but in power.

Rev 1:6 And formed us into a kingdom (a royal race), priests to His God and Father — to Him be the glory and the power and the majesty and the dominion throughout the ages and forever and ever. Amen (so be it).  AMP

Revelation 2:2 I know all that you’ve done for me—you have worked hard and persevered. I know that you don’t tolerate evil. You have tested those who claimed to be apostles and proved they are not, for they were imposters.  I also know how you have bravely endured trials and persecutions because of my name, yet you have not become discouraged. But I have this against you: you have abandoned the passionate love you had for me at the beginning. TPT

Revelation 2:7 The one whose heart is open let him listen carefully to what the Spirit is saying now to all the churches. To the one who overcomes I will give access to feast on the fruit of the Tree of Life that is found in the paradise of God. TPT

Revelation 2:9 I am aware of all the painful difficulties you have passed through and your financial hardships, even though, in fact, you possess rich treasure. And I am fully aware of the slander that has come against you from those who claim to be Jews but are not, for they are a satanic congregation.

¹⁰Do not yield to fear in the face of the suffering to come but be aware of this: the devil is about to have some of you thrown into prison to test your faith. For ten days you will have distress but remain faithful to the day you die, and I will give you the victor’s crown of life. TPT

REV 3:7 And to the messenger of the ekklesia of Philadelphia write: I am the Holy and True One! I hold the key of David as prophesied!  Yes, I unlock the mysteries of the heavenly dimension and no one can shut the door! And I lock the entrance and none (of the old mindsets) can access it!

8  I am fully aware of your efforts in doing the work of the ministry! I want you to see something, I have given you a doorway right in front of you that has been fully opened into the heavenly dimension! Nothing can possibly close it again! Even when you had very little strength you have treasured my word and have not contradicted my name!

9 Behold, the Jewish disguise will be exposed to be the synagogue of Satan. They have sourced their gatherings in accusation but now I give them to you and will cause them to come face to face with you in fellowship in acknowledgment of my love which I have bestowed upon you!

10 You have greatly valued the prophetic word which came to fulfillment in what endured. I will also guard you with great care, empowering you to stand strong in the midst of the troubled times that are about to come upon the inhabited world to scrutinize the dwellers of the earth.

11 Do not let tough times make me seem distant from you! I am at hand – see my nearness, not my absence. And don’t let temporal setbacks diminish your own authority either! Remember that you call the shots; you wear the crown. My crown endorses your crown.   

12 It is in your individual, continual association with your victory in me that I will make you to be like a strong pillar in the inner shrine of God’s sanctuary, supporting the entire structure of my God-habitation within you! A place to be your permanent abode ‘from whence you will never have to depart. And I will engrave upon you the name of my God, also the name of the city [the bride!] of my God, the new Jerusalem that descends from heaven; as well as my own new Name!  MIRROR

1 COR 6:2 Do you not know that the saints (the believers) will [one day] judge and govern the world? And if the world [itself] is to be judged and ruled by you, are you unworthy and incompetent to try [such petty matters] of the smallest courts of justice?

3 Do you not know also that we [Christians] are to judge the [very] angels and pronounce opinion between right and wrong [for them]? How much more then [as to] matters pertaining to this world and of this life only!   MIRROR

Acts 9:31 So the church throughout the whole of Judea and Galilee and Samaria had peace and was edified [growing in wisdom, virtue, and piety] and walking in the respect and reverential fear of the Lord and in the consolation and exhortation of the Holy Spirit, continued to increase and was multiplied.  AMP

▼▼▼

Acts 9:31 After this, the church all over Judea, Galilee, and Samaria experienced a season of peace. The congregations grew larger and larger, with the believers being empowered and encouraged by the Holy Spirit. They worshiped God in wonder and awe, and walked in the fear of the Lord. TPT

¹³These grace ministries will function until we all attain oneness into the faith, until we all experience the fullness of what it means to know the Son of God, and finally we become one into a perfect man with the full dimensions of spiritual maturity and fully developed into the abundance of Christ.

¹⁴And then our immaturity will end! And we will not be easily shaken by trouble, nor led astray by novel teachings or by the false doctrines of deceivers who teach clever lies.

¹⁵But instead we will remain strong and always sincere in our love as we express the truth. All our direction and ministries will flow from Christ and lead us deeper into him, the anointed Head of his body, the church.

¹⁶For his “body” has been formed in his image and is closely joined together and constantly connected as one. And every member has been given divine gifts to contribute to the growth of all; and as these gifts operate effectively throughout the whole body, we are built up and made perfect in love.  TPT

Isa 9:7 Of the increase of His government and of peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David and over his kingdom, to establish it and to uphold it with justice and with righteousness from the [latter] time forth, even forevermore. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.  AMP

1 Cor 1:7 Just think — you don’t need a thing, you’ve got it all! All God’s gifts are right in front of you as you wait expectantly for our Master Jesus to arrive on the scene for the Finale.

THE SPIRIT OF MAN 9-4-22  VIDEO

We know we have a body, we know we have a soul, but who we are is brought forth by our Spirit. We are spirit. Just like the resurrected Christ. 

Romans 8:2 For the “law” of the Spirit of life flowing through the anointing of Jesus has liberated us from the “law” of sin and death.

³For God achieved what the law was unable to accomplish, because the law was limited by the weakness of human nature. Yet God sent us his Son in human form to identify with human weakness. Clothed with humanity, God’s Son gave his body to be the sin-offering so that God could once and for all condemn the guilt and power of sin.

⁴So now every righteous requirement of the law can be fulfilled through the Anointed One living his life in us. And we are free to live, not according to our flesh, but by the dynamic power of the Holy Spirit!

⁵Those who are motivated by the flesh only pursue what benefits themselves. But those who live by the impulses of the Holy Spirit are motivated to pursue spiritual realities.

⁶For the sense and reason of the flesh is death, but the mind-set controlled by the Spirit finds life and peace.  TPT

Galatians 6:15 Whether a man is circumcised or uncircumcised is meaningless to me. What really matters is the transforming power of this new creation life. TPT

Colossians 3:10 For you have acquired new creation life which is continually being renewed into the likeness of the One who created you; giving you the full revelation of God.

¹¹In this new creation life, your nationality makes no difference, nor your ethnicity, education, nor economic status— they matter nothing. For it is Christ that means everything as he lives in every one of us!

¹²You are always and dearly loved by God! So robe yourself with virtues of God, since you have been divinely chosen to be holy. Be merciful as you endeavor to understand others, and be compassionate, showing kindness toward all. Be gentle and humble, unoffendable in your patience with others.

¹³Tolerate the weaknesses of those in the family of faith, forgiving one another in the same way you have been graciously forgiven by Jesus Christ. If you find fault with someone, release this same gift of forgiveness to them.   TPT

▼▼▼

Col 3:8-12 Don’t tell each other lies any more, for you have finished with the old man and all he did and have begun life as the new man, who is out to learn what he ought to be, according to the plan of God. In this new man of God’s design there is no distinction between Greek and Hebrew, Jew or Gentile, foreigner or savage, slave or free man. Christ is all that matters for Christ lives in them all. PHILLIPS

2 COR 5:17 Now, in the light of your co-inclusion in his death and resurrection, whoever you thought you were before, in Christ you are a brand new person! The old ways of seeing yourself and everyone else are over. Acquaint yourself with the new!   MIRROR

JN 3:5 Jesus answered, you have to get this, unless someone is born out of water (the womb) and Spirit, there would be no possible connection with the realm of God!

6 Whatever originates out of flesh is flesh; but what is sourced in Spirit is spirit!

7 Don’t be so surprised when I say to you.  You couldn’t get here in the flesh unless you got here from above!

8 We can observe the effect the wind has and hear its sound whenever it touches objects – yet those objects do not define the wind; it comes and goes of its own accord – if life was not born out of spirit in the first place, it would not be possible to detect spirit influence at all! We are spirit-compatible by design! MIRROR

▼▼▼

John 5-8 “I assure you,” said Jesus, “that unless a man is born from water and from spirit he cannot enter the kingdom of God. Flesh gives birth to flesh and spirit gives birth to spirit: you must not be surprised that I told you that all of you must be born again. The wind blows where it likes, you can hear the sound of it but you have no idea where it comes from and where it goes. Nor can you tell how a man is born by the wind of the Spirit.” PHILLIPS

Proverbs 20:27 The spirit God breathed into man is like a living lamp, a shining light

searching into the innermost chamber of our being. TPT

JN 4:23 The end of an era has arrived – the future is here! Whatever prophetic values were expressed in external devotional forms and rituals are now eclipsed in true spirit worship from within, face to face with the Father – acknowledging our genesis in him – this is his delight! The Father’s desire is the worshipper more than the worship!

24 God is Spirit and not a holy mountain or a sacred city with man-made shrines! Return to your Source – the Father is our true fountainhead!   MIRROR

1 COR 2:11 Just as a person’s spirit knows their own thoughts beyond the public eye, even so the Spirit of God is our faith decoder to access the thoughts of God.

12 The Spirit proceeding from God unveils the gifts of his generosity. He has graced us with understanding so that we may know what he has always had in mind for us; this is so unlike the secular spirit of the wisdom of the world where everything has a price tag! MIRROR

RO  8:2 The law of the Spirit is the liberating force of life in Christ. This leaves me with no further obligation to the law of sin and death. Spirit has superseded the sin enslaved senses as the principle law of our lives.  

3 The law failed to be anything more than an instruction manual; it had no power to deliver us from the strong influence of sin holding us hostage in our own bodies. God disguised himself in his Son in this very domain where sin ruled us, in flesh. The body he lived and conquered in was no different to ours. Thus sin’s authority in the human body was condemned.

4 The very righteousness promoted by the law is now realized in us. Our practical day-to-day life bears witness to spirit inspiration and not flesh domination.

5 Sin’s symptoms are sponsored by the senses, a mind dominated by the sensual. Thoughts betray source; spirit life attracts spirit thoughts.

6 Thinking patterns are formed by reference; either the sensual appetites of the flesh and spiritual death, or zoe-life and total tranquillity flowing from a mind addicted to spirit  MIRROR

JOHN 6:63 It is the Spirit that quickens the poetry of life – the flesh (muscle and willpower) is useless without the spirit. The words that I speak unto you they are spirit and life! I communicate from a different dimension and perspective giving voice and substance to every prophetic shadow and purpose.   MIRROR

1 COR 15:45 It is recorded in Scripture how the first Adam became a living soul; the last Adam is a life radiating spirit.   MIRROR

RO 8:9  But you are not ruled by a flesh-consciousness, (law of works), but by a spirit-consciousness [faith], God’s Spirit is at home in you. Anyone who does not see themselves fully clothed and identified in the Spirit of Christ, cannot be themselves. MIRROR

▼▼▼

Rom 8:9 But you are not living the life of the flesh, you are living the life of the Spirit, if the [Holy] Spirit of God [really] dwells within you [directs and controls you]. But if anyone does not possess the [Holy] Spirit of Christ, he is none of His [he does not belong to Christ, is not truly a child of God].  AMP

▼▼▼

Rom 8:9 But you are not carnal but spiritual if the Spirit of God finds a home within you. You cannot, indeed, be a Christian at all unless you have something of his Spirit in you. Now if Christ does live within you his presence means that your sinful nature is dead, but your spirit becomes alive because of the righteousness he brings with him. PHILLIPS

HEB 4:12 The message God spoke to us in Christ, is the most life giving and dynamic influence in us, cutting like a surgeon’s scalpel, sharper than a soldier’s sword, piercing to the deepest core of human conscience, to the dividing of soul and spirit; ending the dominance of the sense realm and its neutralizing effect upon the human spirit. In this way a person’s spirit is freed to become the ruling influence again in the thoughts and intentions of their heart. The scrutiny of this living Sword-Logos detects every possible disease, discerning the body’s deepest secrets where joint and bone-marrow meet.  MIRROR

ROM 1:9  I am completely engaged in my spirit in the gospel of God’s Son; constantly including you in my prayers; God is my witness.  MIRROR

1 THES 5:23 There, away from any effort of your own, discover how the God of perfect peace, who fused you skillfully into oneness – just like a master craftsman would dovetail a carpentry joint – has personally perfected and sanctified the entire harmony of your being without your help!

You were re-booted to fully participate in the life of your design, in your spirit, soul and body in blameless innocence in the immediate presence of our Lord Jesus Christ.  MIRROR

Ephesians 1:17 I pray that the Father of glory, the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, would impart to you the riches of the Spirit of wisdom and the Spirit of revelation to know him through your deepening intimacy with him.
