CHRISTIANS WITHOUT AUTHORITY


Most Christians have no spiritual
authority, they are powerless against satan. They cannot stop
sinning. They cannot stop watching pornography, cannot stop lusting,
cannot resist temptation, cannot stop lying, cheating, fornicating.
They cannot overcome because they are walking in their own power, not
the power of the Holy Spirit.
Those who follow Jesus, under
guidance of the Holy Spirit, have the authority to overcome all
things. They have the authority to cast out satan and set the
captives free, but if they turn from Jesus and compromise with sin,
with other people and with the world, they lose their authority.
satan seduces the children of God to disobey Jesus, they become
powerless, lose their authority and are destroyed.
The
apostle James wrote in James 4:1-10. "1What is the source of
quarrels and conflicts among you? Is not the source your pleasures
that wage war in your members? 2You lust and do not have; so you
commit murder. You are envious and cannot obtain; so you fight and
quarrel. You do not have because you do not ask. 3You ask and do not
receive, because you ask with wrong motives, so that you may spend it
on your pleasures. 4You adulteresses, do you not know that friendship
with the world is hostility toward God? Therefore whoever wishes to
be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God. 5Or do you
think that the Scripture speaks to no purpose: “He jealously
desires the Spirit which He has made to dwell in us”? 6But He gives
a greater grace. Therefore it says, “GOD IS OPPOSED TO THE PROUD,
BUT GIVES GRACE TO THE HUMBLE.” 7Submit therefore to God. Resist
the devil and he will flee from you. 8Draw near to God and He will
draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your
hearts, you double-minded. 9Be miserable and mourn and weep; let your
laughter be turned into mourning and your joy to gloom. 10Humble
yourselves in the presence of the Lord, and He will exalt you."
If
we purify ourselves of unrighteousness and worldliness, and submit
ourselves to Jesus, He will give us the authority and the power to
overcome sin, satan and the world.
Repent. Purify yourself
Submit to Jesus, obey His words, listen to and follow the guidance of
the Holy Spirit. Do not allow satan to seduce and disarm you through
compromise with sin, disobedience and worldliness. satan will try all
He can until the end to strip you of your power and authority, so
that he can destroy you.
Turn to Jesus. Repent from the heart. He
will accept you and empower you to overcome and stand in the evil
day. Stay with Jesus, in submission to Him, or you will be
destroyed.
Only those who overcome, will enter the kingdom
of heaven. Take heed of the words of Jesus in Revelation 2:4-7 ‘But
I have this against you, that you have left your first
love.5‘Therefore remember from where you have fallen, and repent
and do the deeds you did at first; or else I am coming to you and
will remove your lampstand out of its place—unless you repent.
7‘He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the
churches. To him who overcomes, I will grant to eat of the tree of
life which is in the Paradise of God.’
Are we doing the first
deeds? Are we submitted to Jesus and walking in His authority, in
obedience to Him? Are we overcoming?
May Jesus bless you.

FIGHT sATAN HE WANTS TO DESTROY YOU


satan wants to destroy you, now and for eternity. He wants you to
spend eternity in hell. The wages of sin is death. The soul that sins
will die. satan
 wants you to
keep on sinning because then you will end up in hell. Without
holiness no one shall see God. Those who do not live holy have
no communion with God. Their sin separates them from God.
As long as you are in sin you are powerless against satan, you
are in his power, being destroyed and on your way to hell.
 
Jesus can
set you free from the bondage of sin and addictions, if you call
on Him, if you go on your knees  and pray, humble yourself
before Him, and ask Him. Jesus will forgive your past sin
and set you free, but the only way that you will be able to stay
free is if you stay with Jesus and obey Him. If you go back to
sin, you will be enslaved
 again.
Then you have delivered yourself back into the hands of
 satan and
you will be in a worse situation than before you called on
Jesus. 
 
If
you want to live, and have eternal life you have to stay with
Jesus and SIN NO MORE.
 Only Jesus
can give you eternal life but then you have to stay with
Him and obey Him.
 Obey His words, His
teachings and commandments as also recorded in Matthew,
Mark,  Luke  and  John.  REPENT of all
sin, every sin, immediately. If you sin again you will be back in the
hands of satan. One single sin, separates you from Jesus
and puts you in danger of hell fire. If you stumble and
 sin,
the Holy Spirit will immediately convict you.
 If
you immediately repent and ask Jesus forgiveness, He will forgive you
and your relationship with Him will  be restored, but if you
were careless, or deliberately sinned with the intention of
later asking forgiveness, then Jesus will not  forgive
you. Jesus is not fooled. He knows the intention of every heart.
Your sin will separate you from Jesus and put you back in
 the
power of satan. Unless you sincerely repent and plead
Jesus  forgiveness you will remain in the power
of satan
 and he
will destroy
 you. 
After
REPENTING, BE BAPTIZED IN WATER for the
forgiveness of your sins.
 That is what
Jesus commanded and that is what He requires of everyone who
wishes to follow Him  and have eternal life. Baptism of
the believer is an act of obedience, a
 public confession
of faith  and  a demonstration of your commitment
to follow Jesus and submit your life to Him. Without that
attitude and commitment, baptism is just a meaningless
ritual. That is why infant
 baptism
is not valid.
 An infant has no sin,
cannot repent, nor believe and commit to follow Jesus. 
 


The
whole world is in the power of the evil one,  satan.
Only those who stay with Jesus have the power to overcome sin
and evil, but they have to fight and resist the devil. They have
to resist temptation. If you live holy, you have confidence
to call on Jesus when you are tempted, and He will give you the
power to overcome, but if you live in sin, your  sin
separates you from Jesus and you are destroyed by satan.
 
Be
holy, be righteous, do not
 yield to
temptation. Stand with Jesus, resist the devil and he will flee from
you.
 If you sin, you will burn. Keep
your mind on Jesus and on holiness. Do not give satan
 a
foothold. Avoid temptation. Run from sin. Do not keep
sinful company with worldly  friends.
 Stop
watching movies and TV that can contaminate your mind with lust
and worldliness. Corruption comes through lust.
Mind
what you watch and listen to. Stop following after
celebrities and famous people.  Stop trying to be like
them. Stop running after endless entertainment and pleasures of
the flesh.
 Stop reading and
absorbing fantasies. Stop living in a dream world. Open your
eyes and
 face reality. Life
is not a reality show or a soap opera. All those things are lies,
inspired by satan, to distract, deceive  and destroy
you. Be sober. Keep your mind and thoughts pure and holy.
Keep yourself busy with productive things. Don't waste your time on
social media and endless texting.
 You
cannot overcome satan
 by being
idle, hiding in a corner, or locking yourself up behind high walls.
If you run from satan
 he will
stab you in the back, he will get you  from behind. Neither will
you defeat him by compromising. Don't make friends with the devil.
Don't  listen to him. Don't get into discussions with him. You
have to be on the offensive, on the attack.
 Never
become complacent.  Never underestimate satan. He will
do all he can to get you to sin, because he knows, that if you
sin you are done, doomed and on your  way to hell. 
 
Remember,
one sin caused Adam to die. One sin caused Esau to lose his
first birth right, and even though he tried to repent, he
could never get it back. One sin is enough to cause you to end
up in hell for eternity. Don't let the devil get you.
 
Get
your  focus on Jesus. Pray always, even in your mind. Ask Jesus
to fill your mind with His thoughts, guidance and wisdom. Ponder on
His words, His teachings and commandments. Jesus will
guide you and give you understanding and wisdom, if you
stay  focused on Him. He will guide you in every
aspect of your life. Without Jesus we cannot win. Without
Jesus you cannot defeat satan. Without Jesus you can do
nothing.
 
May
Jesus bless you.

Spiritual Maturity



Spiritual maturity leads to utter dependence and reliance on Jesus Christ, knowing that without Him we can do nothing.

Without Jesus we are nothing.

Spiritual maturity brings a desire to do the will of God, to hear from Him, to be lead by the Holy Spirit in all things so that we can live  a life that is pleasing to Him and that brings glory and honor to Jesus.

Spiritual maturity results in total submission to Jesus, yielding to Him so that He can have His way with us to achieve His will.



Are we spiritually mature?



May Jesus bless you.

Spiritual Adulterers





Many Christian believers are spiritual
adulterers. To be a child of God means to be a follower of Jesus
Christ, to be faithful unto Him, to obey Him and to live our lives to
please Him. We must live according to His Commandments and do what is
pleasing to Him, but many believers run after people. They are
unfaithful to Jesus Christ. Most of them are not following Jesus.
They follow after their own mind, and they follow after preachers and
other people. They seek the advice of men, but they do not follow
Jesus. They don't go to Jesus.
There's only one way to have eternal
life and that is to obey the gospel of Jesus Christ. The gospel of
Jesus Christ are His words, the words that He spoke, as they will
also recorded in the gospels Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. If we take
seriously the words of Jesus and we obey Him; we repent and are
baptized in water and we seek Him with all our heart, then He will
reveal himself to us. He will come and dwell in us and with us. He
will give His Spirit in us to guide us, but we have to be faithful to
Him. We have to follow Him. We have to trust Him. As soon as we start
following after people, seeking the advice of others, we are
fornicating, then we become adulterers with the world, become
adulterers because we are unfaithful to Jesus Christ, and adulterers
will not enter the kingdom of heaven.
We have to obey the gospel of Jesus
Christ and we have to follow the guidance of the Holy Spirit as the
Apostle Paul also wrote in 1st Thessalonians chapter 1 verse 7. He
wrote:"When the Lord Jesus will be revealed from heaven with his
mighty angels in flaming fire, dealing contribution to those who do
not know God and to those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord
Jesus. These will pay the penalty of eternal destruction away from
the presence of God and from the glory of His power, when He comes to
be glorified in his saints on that day, to be marveled at among all
who have believed."
Now many people believe. Many Christian
believers say they believe but they do not believe the gospel of
Jesus Christ. They do not believe neither obey His words. They
believe a different gospel. The words of Jesus are the words of
eternal life. Jesus Christ is the way and the truth and the life. He
speaks and His sheep hear His voice. They listen to Him and they
follow Him. They stay faithful to Him. They do not adulterate. They
do not listen to other people. They follow Jesus. They seek His
guidance and they seek His approval. They do not seek the approval of
each other and that of other Christians, other believers. They do not
seek the approval of the world. They seek the approval of Jesus. They
are faithful to Him, because they seek to please Him. He is their
Lord and their Master. They are not spiritual adulterers. They are
faithful to the Master.
Are we faithful to Jesus Christ? Do we
get our guidance and our teaching, our advice, from Him? Do we follow
Jesus, or are we spiritual adulterers? We must stay focused on Jesus,
seek Him, pray, wait on Him. Walk with Him. Listen to him obey Him
and follow Him every day until the very end.
May Jesus bless you.

Religious Warfare VS Spiritual Warfare





Good morning. This is not
our normal venue, but when you follow Jesus Christ then you follow
Him where He takes you like the psalmist said:"Even though I go
through the valley of death, Thou art with me." Dear friends, I
am glad to be back to be able to share again this morning what the
Lord is laid on my heart. I want to talk about what Jesus gave me to
talk about this morning, and what is about Spiritual Warfare versus
Religious Warfare. They are two different things.
The true followers of
Jesus Christ are involved in spiritual warfare like the Apostle Paul
said:"for our struggle is not against flesh and blood but
against the rulers, against the powers, against the world force's of
this darkness, against spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly
places." Ephesians 6:2. So the true fight is a spiritual one,
but most believers are not busy with a spiritual fight, they are busy
with a religious fight. If we follow Jesus Christ we will be in this
spiritual fight for the kingdom of God, but religious people involve
themselves in a different struggle. Religious people are into
religious warfare, they fight each other, they fight other believers.
They are always fighting. They are fighting to prove their own
salvation, they are in debates and arguments. They are not in the
Spirit. They are in the flesh and they fight from their carnal minds,
they are not being led by the Spirit of God. They are talking about
earthly things, earthly matters, not about that of the Spirit,
because they are not spiritual. They are carnal people. Religious
people are about their church, and about building their church,
preserving their own doctrines, proving their own theories, from the
Bible. They are in the defensive, they always are defending
themselves trying to justify themselves. Religious people are
building their church stealing sheep from one another. They go over
land and sea to make proselytes, to build their little religious
kingdoms, and then they start religious wars wherever they go. They
steal each other's sheep. On top of that, religious people are
sinners. They are not saints, they are not followers of Jesus Christ.
They are defending their faith, and that is why you cannot talk to
these people about Jesus. If you do not belong to a church or to a
denomination, and if they do not know how to tackle you from which
angle to tackle you then they do not know how to handle you and they
reject you, they hate you if you are a disciple of Jesus Christ.
A disciple of Jesus Christ
is in a different struggle. Our struggle is against evil forces,
principalities; our struggle is against sin, against the wiles of the
devil. Our struggle is with our own flesh, and we have to overcome by
submitting ourselves to the Holy Spirit. The weapons of our warfare
are not carnal. It is not about the intellectual, about trying to
fight the devil with Bible verses. No, we fight and overcome the
devil because we are led by the Spirit of God. Our weapons of warfare
are from within, the Spirit that dwells in us, and therefore we can
overcome, because we are not driven by our own mind and by passions
and by our own beliefs. We're led by the Spirit of God and we're
building the kingdom of God. We have nothing to defend. We are here
to witness for Jesus. We are here to sow seed, we are here to make
disciples, to bring people to Jesus, so that they can follow Him and
know Him. Religious people do not understand that, because they are
busy with religion. They're busy with religious warfare. We should
not involve ourselves with religious warfare. We must follow Jesus
Christ and be led by the Spirit of God, overcome sin, overcome the
flesh, overcome the world, because we're not seeking to do our own
will, but to do the will of God. We are seeking to please Jesus
Christ. The only way that we can overcome is if we submit to Jesus,
and if we do His will. The only way that we can bear fruit is if we
are grafted into the vine and we receive our inspiration, our
guidance from the Holy Spirit, because then we are fighting in the
Spirit and not on our own flesh. We are not fighting from our own
mind but we are following the Master and He leads us to victory,
wherever we go. Even though the world might think that we are losers,
if we follow Jesus we can never go wrong, because He will not let our
feet slip. He will keep us, He will guide us. He will teach us His
ways. We have to stay in the race. We have to follow Jesus Christ,
stay close to Him and then we will overcome. The only way to
overcome the spiritual warfare is through our submission to Jesus
Christ, our close relationship with Him and our obedience to Him,
because without Jesus we can do nothing.
May Jesus bless you.

Hearing and Seeing God - Spiritual Manifestation





Those who are born again
of the Spirit of God, children of God, they can see the kingdom of
God and they can hear the voice of God, but many believers cannot
understand why they do not hear nor see God. We read in John 3:1 “Now
there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the
Jews. This man came to Jesus by night and said to Him:"Rabbi, we
know that you have come from God as a teacher for no one can do these
signs that you do unless God is with him." Jesus answered and
said to him:"Truly truly I say to you unless one is born again
he cannot see the kingdom of God." Nicodemus said to Him:"How
can a man be born when he is old? He cannot enter the second time
into his mother's womb and be born, can he?" Jesus
answered:"Truly, truly, I say to you unless one is born of water
and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That
which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the
Spirit is spirit. Do not be amazed that I say to you, you must be
born again. The wind blows where it wishes and you hear the sound of
it but do not know where it comes from and where it is going. So is
everyone who is born of the Spirit."
Jesus speaks. His sheep
hear His voice. They listen to Him and they follow Him. Christian
believers cannot understand why they do not hear the voice of God.
What is wrong with them? The kingdom of God is not of this world, it
is of a different dimension. It is of the spiritual dimension, and a
person who is not born again cannot perceive nor experience the
kingdom of God, because the natural man, a normal person, trusts in
his physical senses, his ears and his eyes and his feeling, his
senses. But those who are of the Spirit of God, they have spiritual
perception, and they see God, they hear God.
We read in John 14:16.
Jesus said to His disciples:"I will ask the Father and He will
give you another Helper, that He might be with you forever. That is
the Spirit of Truth whom the world cannot receive because it does not
see Him or know Him, but you know Him because He abides with you and
will be in you. I will not leave you as orphans, I will come to you
after a little while. The world will no longer see me but you will
see Me, because I live you will live also. In that day you will know
that I am in My Father and you in Me and I in you. He who has my
Commandments and keeps them is the one who loves me and he who loves
me will be loved by my father and I will love him and I will disclose
myself to him." Most professing Christians do not know the voice
of God, they do not hear the voice of God. They do not see the
kingdom of God because they are expecting a physical manifestation of
Jesus Christ. They want to hear Him with their physical ears but He
speaks in our spirit, as we also see happened to the Apostle Paul
when the risen Jesus appeared to him on the Damascus Road. He heard
the voice from heaven that spoke to him, but those who were with him
did not hear that voice. He experienced Jesus Christ but the others
did not experience Jesus, and Paul also wrote in Romans 1:9 "For
God whom I serve in my spirit, in preaching the gospel of His Son, is
my witness."
God speaks to us in our
spirit and if we have not been spiritually made alive and if our
expectation is not a spiritual revelation of Jesus Christ, then we
will not experience Him. We will write it off as something that just
came to our mind, something that we cannot physically prove to
others. The world is looking for tangible proof of Jesus, they want
to physically see Him or else they will not believe. At the same time
they are watching a TV and videos and they believe all the trash that
they see on the TV and in the videos, but when God speaks to them in
their spirit, they do not understand, they do not observe it. They
write it off as some psychological phenomenon. Therefor, if a person
has experienced Jesus Christ then they put him into psychological
ward. They say there's something wrong with this person.
Those who walk with God,
those who know Jesus and experience Him, experience Him in their
spirit. They hear His voice and others don't. They see His kingdom,
they understand his revelation, but others don't. They walk by faith
because they have experienced Jesus Christ for real. They experience
Him by faith in their spirit and therefore because they believe in
His revelation they stay with Him, they follow and they obey Him. The
reason why most believers do not realize or observe when Jesus speaks
to them, when God reveals Himself to them, is that they have the
wrong expectation. They are on a different level. They are operating
on the physical level, whereas the kingdom of God is in a different
dimension. It is in the spirit, because God is spirit and those who
worship Him must worship Him in spirit and in truth.
The kingdom of God is not
physical, not the things that we see around us, not the churches that
the religious people build. The kingdom of God is invisible to this
world but visible to those who are born again of the Spirit of God.
The natural man, the person who is not born, again does not hear the
voice of God, but those who are born of the Spirit of God, they hear
the voice of God and they see Jesus Christ in their spirit because He
reveals Himself to them. Jesus Christ promised the Holy Spirit, as we
read in John chapter 14, and he said to his disciples, I read from
verse 19: "After a little while the world will no longer see Me,
but you will see Me because I live, you will live also."
Those who have obeyed the
gospel of Jesus Christ and who have repented and who have received
the Holy Spirit, they have spiritual perception. They hear the voice
of God and they see the kingdom of God. They are truly born again,
they are part of the kingdom of God. Are you born of the Spirit of
God? Are you a child of God" Because those who are led by the
Spirit of God they are the children of God?
May Jesus bless you.

Spiritual Perspective





The gospel of Jesus Christ
does not make sense to the unbeliever. Many people say they believe
in Jesus but they do not follow nor obey Him. They do not obey His
words. The words of Jesus are scary. They do not make sense because
Jesus tells us not to defend ourselves but to turn the other cheek,
and then people say: What if somebody attacks you, or your wife, or
your family? Will you just stand by? If you truly follow Jesus
Christ, He will guide you in and through that situation. He will be
with you, but if you don't trust Him and you look for excuses not to
obey Him, then you will not see the power of God working in your
life.
Jesus says: "Deny
yourself pick up your cross and come here follow Me." If you
follow Jesus and if you obey His words then you will gain
understanding, but most believers will never have any spiritual
perspective, spiritual understanding, because they do not trust nor
follow Jesus Christ. They just believe in Jesus and they quote some
Bible verses to prove their salvation, but they have no relationship
with Jesus Christ. They say that his gospel is not practical, it is
not practical to do what Jesus commands and therefore most professing
believers do not really follow Him. They are not believers. They
believe something else, they believe an ideology. They do not believe
in Jesus and they do not trust Him. They do not obey Him. When you
tell believers that we must be led by the Holy Spirit and not trust
in our own understanding, not trust in our own interpretation of the
Bible, then they call it heresy, because they do not know Jesus. They
do not trust Him. They trust in their understanding of the
scriptures and therefore
they will never gain spiritual perspective, they will never really
get to know Jesus Christ, because they never really believed.
If you truly believe in
Jesus Christ you must obey Him. You must obey His words, the gospel
of Jesus Christ as also recorded in Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. You
have to do what he commanded and then you will gain spiritual
perspective. You will see how the hand of God moves. Jesus Christ
will guide you and He will teach you and He will answer your prayers,
in His way and in His time. He will give you understanding, in His
way, not the way that you think. He will not answer the things that
you want to know in the way that you ask them, because His thoughts
are higher than our thoughts, His ways are higher than our ways. We
cannot bring God down to our level, and we will not go up to his
level if we do not trust and obey Him, because it is only when we
trust in Jesus and we obey what He says that we gain spiritual
perspective, spiritual understanding. It is only then that we truly
get to know Jesus Christ and that we understand the kingdom of God,
the will of God and that we truly get to know His ways.
Are you learning from
Jesus Christ or do you trust in your own understanding? Do you doubt
Jesus or do you obey the gospel of Jesus Christ? Are you gaining
spiritual perception through your walk with Jesus Christ.
May Jesus bless you.

Christian Prostitution







The born again child of
God is spiritually united with Jesus Christ through the Spirit of
Christ that dwells in him. Those who are being led by the Spirit of
God they are the children of God, and if we do not have the Spirit of
Christ then we do not belong to Him. Jesus Christ gives His Holy
Spirit in those who obey Him, those who obey the gospel of Jesus
Christ, His words, His commands, those who repent and who are
baptized, who are transformed by the Holy Spirit of God, they are
truly born again; and their communion, their relationship is with
Jesus Christ, not with men.
Many Christian believers
have become prostitutes, because they run after men. They have bound
themselves to the churches of men, and not to Jesus Christ. Many have
been born again by the Spirit of Christ, but they do not follow
Jesus. They follow after men and women. They have other spiritual
leaders, teachers, and guides. They do not follow the guidance of the
Holy Spirit, they are spiritual prostitutes and fornicators, because
they bind themselves with other spiritual leaders.
If you bind yourself to a
church organization, or to another spiritual leader and you forsake
Jesus Christ, to turn your back on Him, then you are a fornicator and
an adulterer; you are guilty of spiritual prostitution. If you follow
Jesus then Jesus Christ Himself is everything to you. You do not
follow others your total dedication is to Jesus Christ. You follow
and you obey Him.
Do you belong to a church,
do you follow after the spiritual leaders or are you led by the Holy
Spirit? Are you guilty of spiritual prostitution? Have you forsaken
Jesus and run after flesh? If you belong to Jesus Christ, then you
follow Him alone. He is your Lord, your Master, your Guide, your
Teacher, you everything. Is Jesus Christ you're everything?
May Jesus bless you.

It Is Time to Grow Up







Most professing Christians
never grow up to maturity, they never become disciples, followers of
Jesus Christ. They are spiritual babies and they remain babies until
they either die or they fail. They fall away because they never grew
into men, mature followers of Jesus Christ. Even those who are born
again very seldom become grown mature children of God. Most of then
stay with the first principles of repentance, deliverance ,and
learning the first principles of the faith. Many of them and never
get past those first principles. Many of them never repent, others
are never baptized in water, and most of them are never baptized in
the Holy Spirit, so very few of them ever come to the point where
they follow the voice of Jesus Christ, and they become mature
disciples of Jesus.
If we do not grow to
maturity in Christ and become followers of Jesus, who are led by the
Holy Spirit, not by every whiff or every wind of teaching and
learning, running after people; if we do not get to the point where
we walk with Jesus in confidence in Him, trusting Him, being faithful
to Him, doing His will, then we will not survive dear friends. It is
time to grow up in our walk with Jesus, not just to be believers who
fool ourselves. Many only know Bible verses, they are religious, and
they repeat the same teachings over and over again, they run after
the teachings of other people they run after the prophecies of other
people, but they themselves have no relationship with Jesus. They are
spiritual babes, and when the trials of life come they fall over they
fall away, they backslide, they fail, they never become men in
Christ. Iit's time to grow up dear friend, or else you will not make
it into the kingdom of heaven.
We have to grow up and
become fully fledged children of God, born again men and women of
God, who follow Jesus Christ every day, listen to His voice, who are
not deterred by every new teaching or every new revelation from
somebody. If you know Jesus Christ you're not deterred by anything.
You listen to Him and you follow Him. Those who are being led by the
Spirit of God they are the sons of God, they are disciples of Jesus
Christ, they are the Warriors of God, who do the will of God.
It's time to grow up, it's
time to get serious with Jesus, and to start walking with Him or else
you will perish on the road. Only those who endure with Jesus until
the very end, only they will win the prize of eternal life; only they
will enter the kingdom of heaven. Are you a spiritual babe or have
you grown to maturity? Are you following the Master? It is time to
grow up.
May Jesus bless you.

Spiritual Survival





Many people hear the gospel of Jesus Christ and they believe.  many of
them are born again but very few of them survive. Very few of them
endure with Jesus Christ until the end, because they do not realize that
when you accept Jesus Christ and you are born again of the Spirit of
God, you enter into a spiritual battle field, satan and his armies are
against you and he will try to destroy you.

We cannot fight against
the devil in the natural. Even with your best intentions,even with all
the Bible knowledge in the world, and all your own power you cannot
stand against satan, you cannot stand against the wiles of the devil.

You
cannot survive on your own. Most believers do not make it, they are
destroyed by satan. The reason is that they never earned to trust in
Jesus, never learned to follow the guidance of the Holy Spirit. satan
will try his utmost to snare you, to lay traps for you, to distract you,
and in most cases he succeeds, because believers trust in their natural
abilities, natural senses and then their own power, to overcome satan.
We cannot overcome on our own. We need to follow the guidance of the
Holy Spirit, we need to be spiritually perceptive to overcome, and we
can only be spiritually perceptive if we are tuned in to the Holy
Spirit; through prayer, through being filled with the Holy Spirit and
following the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Without Jesus Christ we can
do nothing. He sent the Holy Spirit to teach us and to guide us into all
truth.

We cannot survive on our own. We cannot survive on Bible
knowledge, we cannot be led by other people. We need to be led by the
Holy Spirit and that is why most believers do not survive. They have a
good intentions but they don't survive because they are fighting in
their own power. They trust in other people, they trust in themselves,
they trust in their own knowledge of the Bible, but they do not trust in
the Holy Spirit, they do not trust in Jesus. They have never learned to
listen to Him, to trust Him, to obey Him and to follow Him and that is
why their perish, that is why they do not survive.

Are you being led
by the Holy Spirit? Is your focus on Jesus Christ or are you trusting in
the Bible, your preacher, other people? Without Jesus we can do
nothing. Go on your knees and cry out to Him, seek Him with all your
heart.

Ask Him to always fill you with His Spirit. Seek more of Jesus
every day. Let Him live in you and dwell in you, and stay tuned in,
vigilant. Listen to the voice of the Holy Spirit and trust Him. Let Him
guide you and teach you. That is the only way that you will endure and
survive until the end.

May Jesus bless you.

Spiritual Survival Growth and Fruitfulness



Our spiritual survival, growth and fruitfulness depends on our relationship with Jesus Christ. and our relationship with Jesus Christ depends on prayer and our obedience to Him. Man shall not live from bread alone but from every word that proceeds from the mouth of God. We must be in communion with Jesus Christ all the time. That is why He gives His Holy Spirit to dwell in us.
If we obey Him, then we can be constantly connected, to you have constant communion with Him. But we have to pray, we have to work on our relationship with Jesus Christ. If we are not praying in the spirit always then we cannot bear fruit. If we are not hearing from Him we cannot do His will; if we do not seek Him all the time and go after Him then we will drift from Him, we will not hear Him and we will get occupied with other things, we will be led astray. We need to keep our focus on Jesus Christ and pray always, pray in the spirit that's why He gives us the Holy Spirit to live in us to guide, us to teach us, to be with us forever, that is Christ in us, but we must cherish His presence, we must covet His presence, look after his presence our relationship with Him and not allow anything to get in between us and Him. We must seek to serve Him, seek to be pleasing to Him, be attentive and listen.
If I do not listen to the Holy Spirit, if I do not receive a message from Jesus, I cannot be speaking to you, because I cannot pass on to you if I have not received from Jesus Christ. We cannot bear fruit if we do not abide in the Vine, if we do not stay in Christ; and we stay in Christ through prayer, obedience, doing His will. He will guide us, He will teach us, He will discipline us and He will send us. He will give us work to do, but we must listen, obey, respond and go and do it or else we cannot serve Him. We cannot serve His kingdom, we cannot be fruitful if you do not pray in the Spirit, walk in the Spirit, you cannot do the will of God.
Those who are being led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. God is spirit and those who worship Him must worship Him in Spirit and in truth, always. The Spirit of Christ lives in them, dwells in them and they are led by the Spirit. Are you alive in Christ? Are you growing and are you fruitful? We need to be in Christ. We need to be connected, listening, attentive, obeying His commands and doing His will. We must follow Him and endure with Him until the very end or else He will say to us: "Go away I never knew you. You had no business with me, you would not come after me; you
were running after your own desires."
Are you alive in Christ, not just surviving but thriving growing and bearing fruit for His kingdom?
May Jesus bless you.

Learn some more



We often become fixed in our ways
because we trust in what we know and we lean on our own understanding
instead of fully trusting Jesus Christ and that is why we get STUCK
in our spiritual life. We think that, that which we know, what we
have learned is the alpha and the omega, that is the beginning and
the end of the story and then we STAY with our understanding, but we
have to trust Jesus Christ and open our spirit, our mind and let Him
teach us. Let Him guide us.
If we get stuck on what we KNOW and
what we have learned, even from the Lord Himself, then we are
trusting on our KNOWLEDGE, on our EXPERIENCE and not on Jesus Christ.
We have to fully trust Jesus and go with Him, LISTEN, WAIT on Him and
He will give us UNDERSTANDING, He will open the WAY in front of us
and we will SEE the LIGHT, we will SEE His way because God does not
conform to what we THINK or what we have LEARNED, or what we believe
to be His way.
Jesus Christ is LORD and we have to
LOVE Him, TRUST Him, FOLLOW Him and OBEY Him in everything. Above all
other things we have to OPEN our mind to Jesus. We have to be
TRANSFORMED by the renewal of our MIND, by the indwelling of the Holy
Spirit or else we will not enter into the kingdom of heaven, we will
not follow Jesus Christ where He takes us.
Trust in the Lord, WAIT on Him, LISTEN
and He will give you understanding. He will teach you NEW THINGS that
you did not know, NEW THINGS that nobody knew because all knowledge
and all revelation belongs to Him. Our God is UNLIMITED. Trust Him
and FOLLOW Him.


May Jesus bless you.

GROW UP be a man FIGHT or you will PERISH


Most Christian believers are spiritual babies who don't want to grow up and walk with Jesus. They want to be spoon fed, nursed and carried. They are like spoiled brats who want everything their way. They want to be served and taken care of, they think that God is their nursery mother. They are not ready for solid food. They want other people to feed them. They want to go and sit in a church and have a pastor or a preacher coach them and guide them and teach them. They look to people. They want to go to a church and have some spiritual father feed them, coach them. They are not ready for solid food, they are not ready to hear from Jesus Christ, they want everything their way because they are spiritual babies.
Most believers DIE spiritual babies, they stay dependent on other people. They never grow up to become mature men in Christ Jesus. They never start walking with Jesus, they never take responsibility for their own walk. They always blame other people, they blame God and they do not take what he gives them, they are not thankful, they do not follow Jesus Christ. They are spiritual parasites and in the end they perish. Most believers are heading for disaster because they are spiritually incapable, impotent and inefficient, they are destroyed by satan because they have no spiritual power. They never grew up, they never became men, they could not and would not defend themselves against the whiles of the devil, their whole life was about themselves.
If you want eternal life you will have to grow up and get into the walk. You have to face the battle every day and you have to walk the straight and narrow road, follow Jesus Christ every day. You have to win every battle, you have to conquer satan. YOU have to get up and get MOVING, YOU have to start following Jesus, YOU have to OBEY Him, YOU have to take responsibility for your own destiny, YOU have to DECIDE to follow and obey Jesus Christ, You have to stop sinning and to start FOLLOWING Jesus Christ. You cannot remain a spiritual baby, you have to grow up and become a man in Christ or else you will perish.

May Jesus bless you.

Where is Jesus?


Jesus is God and God is SPIRIT. We cannot see spirit but we ourselves are also spirit and we live in a body. The reason why we do not perceive, SEE Jesus Christ is because we are in the physical and we want to perceive things with our physical senses by hearing, seeing, feeling, tasting. If people cannot physically see, feel, touch or understand things then they say it doesn't exist but yet we are SPIRIT. If we become spiritually ALIVE, tuned in, then we will see Jesus, we will SEE GOD.
Jesus is everywhere, He has always been, He is God. All things were made by Him and through Him and in Him, by His POWER all things hold together. Without Jesus nothing can exist. We ourselves will not exist without Jesus, He keeps us alive, He is always present, He knows everything about us but we are unaware of Him because we are not tuned in to Him.
If we SEEK Jesus we will FIND Him. If we ASK Him He will reveal Himself to us in the physical and in our spirit, our spirit will come alive and we will see Jesus. Jesus said that those who are pure in heart, they will see God. What separates us from God is sin. If we REPENT OF SIN, turn away from sin and seek Jesus with all our power, PRAY to Him, CALL OUT to Him, ASK HIM to reveal Himself to you then He will reveal Himself to you and you will KNOW that Jesus is ALIVE. Your SPIRITUAL SENSES will come alive and you will HEAR, SEE and PERCEIVE Jesus all the time.
His sheep LISTEN to His VOICE and they FOLLOW Him. We cannot follow Jesus if we do not know Him, if our SPIRITUAL SENSES are not alive and TUNED IN to Jesus. If we seek Him we will find Him, if we draw closer to Him He will draw closer to us and He will reveal Himself to us so that we will KNOW Him for REAL. He will MANIFEST Himself in the physical, in the things around us, in our lives, we will SEE the hand of God but FIRST we have to purify ourselves so that we can SEE HIM. Those who are PURE IN HEART, they will SEE GOD.
Seek Him with all your heart and you will find Him, you will SEE Him, you will KNOW Him and you will be able to TESTIFY about Him. Seek Jesus and you will find Him.

May Jesus bless you.

Spiritual Implantation


Many professing Christians know their Bibles very well, yet they do not know the will of God. They also do not experience Jesus Christ as their Lord and Master, and they cannot SEE the kingdom of God of which Jesus Christ Himself is LORD, King and Master. The reason for that is that these people are not born again. We read in John 3:3, Jesus said to a Pharisee, Nicodemus, “unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God.” He cannot appreciate, understand the kingdom of God, He cannot know the will of God. Such people do not have the Holy Spirit and they do not belong to Jesus Christ.
We need to receive the IMPLANTED WORD, an IMPLANTATION OF THE SPIRIT OF GOD which we can only receive if we are BORN AGAIN.
If we cleanse ourselves of all unrighteousness, repent of all sin and are baptized in water for the washing off of our sins, then we can receive the Holy Spirit that Jesus promised to those who love Him and who OBEY Him.
The apostle James speaks about this implantation in James 1:21, He said:”“Therefore, putting aside all filthiness and all that remains of wickedness, in humility receive the WORD IMPLANTED, which is able to save your souls.” That IMPLANTED WORD is the INDWELLING OF THE HOLY SPIRIT. You do not get to know the will of God through studies, through Bible studies and through listening to other people but you receive KNOWLEDGE of the WILL OF GOD when the Holy Spirit is IMPLANTED in you and Jesus Christ LIVES in you. Then you KNOW the will of God.
Have you received that IMPLANTATION of the WORD OF GOD, the Holy Spirit of God DWELLING IN YOU? Do you LISTEN to that IMPLANTED WORD that guidance of the Holy Spirit and do you FOLLOW Jesus Christ? Do you experience Him as LORD?

May Jesus bless you.

Without a Bible


To most modern believers it is unthinkable to be without a Bible because the Bible has become the medium and vehicle of practicing their religion. You can go to heaven without a Bible but you cannot go into the Kingdom of God without Jesus Christ and without the Spirit of Christ IN you, guiding you. If you do not have Jesus Christ you are LOST.
Most believers are spiritually DEAD and DYSFUNCTIONAL, they operate on the level of the mind and the common sense. They have no spiritual connection with the living God. A body without spirit is DEAD. If you do not have the Spirit of Christ in you , you are SPIRITUALLY DEAD. Jesus gives His Holy Spirit in every person who seeks to follow Him.
Most believers have Bibles but very few have the Holy Spirit or follow the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Very few believers truly KNOW Jesus Christ and very few of them will enter the Kingdom of Heaven because most believers trust in their Bibles and they are not led by the Holy Spirit of God that He gives in those who seek Him.
Do you have the Spirit of God in you? Do you follow His guidance or do you just have a Bible?

May Jesus bless you.

Spiritually Dysfunctional


Most people are SPIRITUALLY DYSFUNCTIONAL, they operate on the level of the physical, of their own mind, their common sense. Those who are led by the SPIRIT OF GOD, they are the children of God.
If we are led by our common sense, our own mind, by OUR thought patterns then we are fleshly people, we operate on the level of the physical. If we are led by our OWN interpretation of the Bible then we are fleshly people. We need to be led by the Spirit of God. God is Spirit and those who worship Him, who FOLLOW Him and OBEY Him must worship Him in spirit and in truth.
The child of God is SPIRITUALLY TUNED IN, he is led by the Spirit of God. His deeds and his actions, his decisions are determined, led, by the Spirit of God. He GETS HIS GUIDANCE in everything from the Spirit of God because God is his father and he LISTENS, he inquires of his father.
Are you are child of God? Are you led by the Spirit of God. If we are not led by the Spirit of God we cannot be pleasing to God because only those who are led by the Spirit of God, THEY are the sons of God.

May Jesus bless you.

Blind Faith


To follow Jesus Christ requires BLIND FAITH. If you can see something, feel it, describe it why do you still believe IN IT? Most people will NOT follow Jesus because Jesus Christ is not real to them but without faith it is impossible to please God. You have to BELIEVE, and you have to TRUST Him although you cannot SEE Him and then you will see His handiwork in the physical. You will see things happening in your life in the physical.
Our relationship with Jesus Christ is not a physical relationship, it is a spiritual relationship. That is why you must be BORN AGAIN so that you can PERCEIVE Jesus Christ and the kingdom of Heaven in your SPIRIT. If you are not born again of the Spirit of God then you will not follow Jesus, then the kingdom of Heaven will not be real to you and Jesus Christ will not be real to you.
You need to be SPIRITUALLY REBORN and then you will follow Him in BLIND FAITH, He will reveal Himself to you in the natural, the physical. You will see the hand of God, you will receive wisdom, knowledge, guidance, discipline IN YOUR SPIRIT. And when He guides you, you will follow Him WITHOUT QUESTION because you BLINDLY TRUST Him.
Is Jesus Christ REAL to you? Will you BLINDLY FOLLOW Him? Or does common sense and your senses rule you? Do you want confirmation from physical things, from your bible, from other people or is Jesus Christ more real to you than the physical? Do you really KNOW Him and will you BLINDLY follow Him? If you don't, you don't have faith, then Jesus Christ is not real to you.
If you SEEK Him, OBEY Him, REPENT of sin, be BAPTIZED IN WATER and seek Him He will REVEAL HIMSELF TO YOU and you will have SPIRITUAL PERCEPTION. But then IN FAITH you have to daily deny yourself pick up your cross and BLINDLY FOLLOW Him where He guides you.

May Jesus bless you.
