It is alright to love with my whole heart, not a smidgen, a section or a portion but the entire energy of my being.  I know inherently that others will react to this unbridled sometimes with curiosity, others with doubt, some with recrimination and unbelief.  But still it will be offered.  I was asked today if my enemies came through the door there is no way that you would forgive them and let them go free of the crimes they have committed.

It surprised the asker, who truly believed to have set me up in front of a crowd when I said that I would forgive them of the wrongs they have done me and God would forgive them and cleanse them of their sins and unrighteousness if they believed upon the Lord Jesus, but that their crimes would still require punishment if they had broken man’s law.  You see they mistakenly believed false information about Christianity, that if you commit crimes God will just set you free of the consequences.  Understandably if that is what they believed about our faith I can see where it would seem odd that people would just be freed of all culpability and accountability for worldly action.

I had the blessing of being used to preach the Gospel to over 10,000 people this week.  It has been the greatest joy of my life as Christians cheered, fence sitters asked endless questions and the enemies of God answered with vitriol and grief. Many demanded I stop preaching or simply stop speaking the Word of God and use my own thoughts.  To which I answered, that God’s Word never returns void and is marvelous for teaching, preaching, rebuke, reproach and reminder.  Some simply demanded I shut up and I responded with a loving request for them to make their lives settled with God as judgment approaches.  I was used of God and that is the greatest gift I have received outside of God’s Grace, forgiveness and redemption.  To realize one’s purpose for God is the achievement of wholeness.  Today, I was given the chance to fulfill my duty as a Christian Ambassador or remain silent and I spoke until all that was appropriate to say had been said.

The time has come for action.  This country was formed differently than our predecessors whether in Europe, Asia or Africa, because we determined for the good of all that we would put aside our personal desires as secondary to the needs of the nation.  We came together in love, settled in our Christianity or other faith and even in disagreement “got the work done”.  We became a nation of doers, differentiating us from all other nations.  God Blessed our works and provided us enormous bounty from which to produce stupendous achievement.  At some point we forgot this factor allowing sedentary practices to replace our once great desire to achieve great objectives.  This effected Christians the most, for the work of our faith and love for God is always there awaiting our will to stand and preach, teach, heal, provide and love upon this lost world.  Although our faith is not based upon works we forgot that our worship is demonstrated by our works of love for God.

We were designed for many purposes but they all come back to the same life giving root, the Good News of Salvation through Christ.  If we cannot tell others of Christ then we have failed to attach ourselves to the power of the life giving vine of the Holy Spirit from whom we receive the power to pronounce the Gospel. If you are not telling people about Christ then you are simply disconnected, disobedient and unsure of your testimony.  This is some cause to fear, but it is better a warning sign to be instantly attended.  Find a mature Christian and ask some questions, get some help, learn to achieve the objective for which you were given access to power and authority.  If you aren’t going to use it, then you are a disobedient child and your one talent should be taken away and given to the one who wants to turn it into ten.  You know who you are, the time has come to do something about that knowledge and if you do not you alone hold the blame that you will certainly dread telling Christ.

God’s Plan for your lives is wonderful.  Don’t leave this plane having achieved less than the best for your life.  Find out what he wants for you and then stand ready for him to act, provide, fulfill, secure and deliver upon those promises for it will most certainly occur in due time.  Christ’s return is imminent, are you ready, look up, he’s almost here. Can you feel it.  We love you.  God loves you.  In Jesus’ name I pray for you right now.  Amen.

What do you do when you realize that the person  you are doesn’t match the story you’ve been telling?  The nature of things puts you smack dab in the middle of an enormous conflict.  Spilled milk always seeks the low point on the floor in which to pool or conforms to its container.  How then do you expect to surpass these natural laws and keep the parts of your real personality compartmentalized from the one you virtually maintain?

Christianity makes it impossible for believers to fit into the world.  Those God induced changes bring about a contempt for societal norms regarding the acceptance of sin.  The Holy Spirit continues to remind, rebuke, instruct regarding the complacence, acceptance or participation in the what God defines as unacceptable behavior.  This interaction causes either a conscious separation from the worldly or a chosen determination to those things over God.  Truth is you get changed and then you just can’t hang with worldly folks anymore, that is if you are serious about your relationship with God, ie..truly transformed by a renewing relationship with Christ.

I have found that the world no longer loves me, in fact their feelings have turned to contempt, exasperation or outright exclusion.  One cannot be in truthful relationship with Christ and have the same with the world, it just is not possible.  These two things are mutually exclusive, they will never mix, if you wear the shirt you will no longer be invited to the party.  So, don’t adorn yourself with Christianity if you don’t want to be changed, because it will change you.  I mean the Holy Spirit will change  you, you will truly become someone different then you used to be.  The Lord has transformed me into someone consistent with his Will for my life and that has made me unacceptable to society.  Sure they play nice to an extent but when they quiz me as they always do about the things of God and the Truth of God’s Word, they instantly realize that I am not like them nor can we ever be friends.  I love them, pray for them, but their rebellion against God cannot be overlooked.  Nor can they ever accept me for who I am.  We are separate, why?, because we were made to be that way.

My duty is to God and that requires I tell the truth to a population in desperate straights.  They are headed for a judgment and a sentencing that they do not fully understand.  My job is to tell them the thing that most definitely do not want to hear and the thing that they most desperately need to hear.  The greatest news they will ever receive is that of Christ’s redemption and God’s grace.  It is a joy to tell them, but in that delivery there is always conflict, and unfortunate sorrow upon the realization that many will not listen, no matter what, they will refuse to listen.  The choice is theirs to make.  I think many Christians do not wish to tell them because they know intrinsically that something will change and instantly the relationships they once counted as solid were never more then houses built on sand.

There is no savior complex on my part, merely the desire to show people the way to break free from the shackles I so comfortably accepted in my past existence.  I cannot free you of the guilt and shame of your sin, I cannot provide you the access to eternity, I cannot change, provide and correct your life, but I know who can.  There is a wonderful story to tell and it will lead to the greatest things in this life and the next.  I hope that you voluntarily wish to discuss, consider and choose Christ, but I am prepared for the alternative.  You see, most do not wish to hear, but tell them I must for this is true love, to offer each person a way to escape the pain of sin, shame, death and eternal separation from the God who created everything.

I first whispered and hoped, then I argued and cajoled, then I spoke the Word and honored God’s control of the outcome.  I have been hoping and praying for the many of you who I have shared the Gospel with over the years, that you would have Aha moment, where the Holy Spirit revealed something to you.  God has now told me that tribulation is coming, not as a matter of simple, outrageous wrath, but as a grand gesture of His Love for mankind.  He loves you enough to turn the heat up to 12 so that you must let go of the ladder you continue to climb in to darkness.  He is going to make the light so bright that you cannot stay in darkness except by choice.  He is going to make the series of tragedies so compelling that everyone knows God is in charge.  I now know that my job has been completed, I now ready myself for the return of the Lord.

Please review your works.  You manipulate everyone around you, you deceive trying to control the situation with magic or clever behavior.  No one will apologize to God for you, because that he does not allow.  We will pray, that he has mercy upon your soul, but forgiveness is his, redemption is his, eternity is his alone to dispense.  I have begged that you see your illness and cry out to God for assistance, begging again for him to set you free from bondage.  He has been waiting for your repentance, with the keys to your shackles, patiently he waits to set you free.  I am sorry that you have not availed yourself of his forgiveness, that you have not heeded his Word in justice, but the time for payment approaches.  I hope that you understand the cost for if you stand without decision made you still have made a choice through disobedience.

What now is left for me but to encourage, comfort and build up the Body of Christ.  I will preach the Gospel and allow its effect to be of God.  God gives us clear guidelines regarding how to conduct ourselves in the world.  We cannot ignore his command to holiness just because we have not written his word upon our hearts.  We cannot ignore his command to remain unspotted and free of sin while we walk through humanity.  We are to conduct ourselves as his children, with clear understanding of what that means, especially when we thing he is not watching.  For the power of God is in the Holy Spirit, which indwells each believer.  Therefore conduct unbecoming a child of God, grieves the Holy Spirit and demonstrates a willingness to serve another master, whether it be self, or false god or sin.  The Church is now in the state of luke warm salvation.  They seemingly do not care to be obedient only to comforted in their self service.  As believers in Christ if this is the truth then it is the truth that we should be speaking.

I cannot make decisions for you.  I am the worst of sinners, I need God.  I beg him to rid me of this worldly skin, so that I might know again my innocence.  If I have asked that you hear God and you have never listened then please forget my words.  For if you will not heed his word enough to ask him to tell you the truth, then you never wanted to know in the first place.  I am sorry that you will have to face tribulation.  I do not plan on being here for that.  I pray that it provides sufficient awakening that you remember the things of God.  I pray that at that time the seed I once planted sprouts and delivers you unto eternity with Christ.  However, your choice is your choice, I will weep no tears for you in heaven for you are serving whom you wish to serve, right now.

I cannot argue effectively or defend my faith without contention, for the Word provokes either resistance or capitulation.  God does not ask, He tells, He yells at the universe and it obeys, why would a man have leeway?  Because a man is beloved, so God speaks calmly waiting for the choices we all must make.  Do not contend with God if you like winning, do not contend with man if you wish them simply believe.

It never returns void, the knowledge that the plans will always sprout, the sun will always shine that someone will love you forever.  This Word is unlike any treasure you’ve found, it is the power to make, to break to shine light upon the fake, shaming, taming, waking and growing all things to zenith.  It presents you with The Truth about life, death and what comes after, between and before perception.  This Word is perfect, it was with God at the beginning, it was and is God.

I stand overwhelmed in my simple crisis of humanity, struggling to understand that which is beyond my comprehension, my universe stretching, frighteningly toward rupture.  Destiny has made me the man God wished.  I have seen glory and become addicted, that face, the face of a God willing to die to get my attention, my allegiance, my faith.  How can I have ever pleased this perfect God, which seems impossible? Yet, he tells me that he sees me cleansed and righteous, wearing the suit of armor gleaming like the sun, The son given a second chance to live a second life for purpose, for reason, for the Glory of a deserving King.

He died so that I might live, Jesus be praised.

The concrete of my life falls away, leaving those things green and supple.  I am nothing that my dreams have made, the dreams made me.  Having become what God intended, I yearn for Him and hunger for the redemption of mankind from the cruel reign of false gods.  There are many things I had once wished to conquer or complete, now my only hope is to save as many as may be saved in the time remaining.

They have gone astray from God, wrongly equating Him and the Church, they now have decided upon it irrelevance.  The apostasy is God’s present reminder that we rapidly approach and end of the Church Age.  We are not of desperate mindset, only quiet understanding that those who have ears to hear shall hear and those who sit upon the fence shall forever regret having never exercised the greatest gift of free will choice.  That is the abomination here, is that a humanity which might be wholly save turns its nose to the food of restoration.

Lord, I am so thankful that you chose me, for any purpose.  The fact that I have been able to any positive effect for the Kingdom humbles me and delights my mind with new and positive memories.  These people you love and I am sorry that they are too self-focused to come to you and be saved.  Please forgive us for not telling them sooner, perhaps we may have made a difference.

Your love sustains me as I lose taste and desire for the things of this world.  I see the innocent smile and that brings me joy.  I see those who love you and obey your commands and that makes me smile.  I see the men and women you’ve created and your love for them shines bright from my eyes.  They don’t know how to handle it Lord and are often left for words.  They see immediately that I love them even before we have ever spoken.  I am sorry for the times that I looked at my Brother otherwise.  As this world grows strangely dim let them see my readiness for rapture so that they too might have oil in their lamps, watching for your return.

In all these things I love you Almighty God for all that you are and pray that Your Name be Blessed in Heaven and Earth, In Jesus’ Holy Name I pray.

Yes I fall, I fail, I flounder lying upon the sand feeling inadequate to circumstance.  But, I get up, sometimes waiting for the strength to rise from my knees.  There against the spiteful wind I stand in the knowledge of God, expecting resistance but tasting the eventual and imminent victory of God’s Promise.

How do you explain my continued resolve.  You who warned me against believing in something made up by man, something that controls sheep, an opiate?  How do explain my sobriety, my willingness to give and my continued ability to survive on a field rife with fiery arrows?  My wounds evident, my scars not so much but still reflected in the light of God’s love pouring forth from my eyes.  Bloodied, beaten, forgotten, unloved, you beg me to lie down and quit, but I have other ideas.  My investment is in Christ, I have placed all that I have in his hands, seeking return following this life.  Your glory Lord, I will benefit in the long-haul.

Why do you avoid battle in my quadrant, you thought me frail, easily sidestepped or beaten?  Am I foe worthy of your concern?  Absolutely not, I will not pump you up with false bravado to which are not worthy.  My strength is the Lord’s, my patience built of faith, faith in his righteous willingness to destroy you to protect me.  You have been beaten by love, his Love and that astounds your sensibilities.  Something as low as me could survive every assault simply because he loves me.  There is power in understanding the authority of one’s Father.  Mine owns everything, made everything, knows everything and has power and authority beyond comprehension.  Where does that leave you?

I may be on my belly, but I soon will be on my elbows, knees and feet, standing in the midst of darts with my shield locked against my Brother, firm footed in the knowledge of the inevitability of our victory through Christ.

If it requires I be a fool to love you, then an able fool I stand before you. loving.  If I must lose all to gain the moments we spend in concentrated learning, loving and laughing, then here are the keys to my castle.  If I must slave to righteousness, forbidden in things outside your character, then shackle me anew with the Spirit of You.  If I must dig in to an extended battle, pushing forward only to collect our wounded, then in this dirt I dedicate my life to our victory.  If I must run, let it be in your strength so that I never weary or faint.  If I must commit this life to be of any relevance then to which paper do I place my mark?

They are excruciatingly tiring in their questions, demonstrating their fear and desperation.  They are tiresome in their inability to consider anything but themselves and they exhaust me when I find myself having to define hope for someone who knows it not.  They challenge me when my teeth must be clenched in responding to their repeated negative responses.  However, they are his and I love them.  They are his and I love them.  They are his.

Lord I am okay with the timing of your coming.  I think I would prefer rapture, but the dead in Christ rise first.  I know this, that I miss you and know that my time is accounted for in this duty.  It is exciting to wait upon you.  It is easy to believe in you.  It is comforting to trust in You.  May your Mighty Name be Blessed and may you be held in full account of your Glory and Wisdom.  In Jesus’s Holy Unblemished Name.

https://youtu.be/utWQjChjUrI All prophecy points to Jesus Christ.  Are you Bible Ready?

We have forgotten the need, the respect, the peace of sovereignty. Our sin and the fallen enemy’s creative attempts to tempt us toward it make this world nearly unbearable. Yet the Lord uses its wickedness, its rasp, it caustic nature to challenge us in ways that essentially assure our trial and subsequent improvement. Can we, consider ourselves believer and go through this life making our own decisions, plans and consumption of Glory? Or does the nature of Christianity imply an incumbent sacrifice, volunteerism, slavery to the Righteousness, Sovereignty and power of the Lord Jesus Christ. We have been heavily dosed with the convincing, medicinal deception that we have always been and will always be capable of living this life under our own power, plans and authority and still wake up after the first death, ready for an eternal relationship with God. The two roads do not cross. We may only understand salvation by first grasping Sovereignty. Without a respectful understanding and reverent fear for God and a shameful willingness to repent of our sinful existence, eternity with God a plane outside of our understanding.

I want no regrets when my time comes to leave my current role within humanity. I want to understand and commit to what I say that I believe and in order to do so I must fully understand the parameters of doctrine to which I am committing. the Therefore, I cannot simply trust the word of man regarding the things of God and heaven. I must seek a description that has its roots outside this worldly plane. I am left with the need for Spiritual Enlightenment, for I can only know God as He describes Himself. And even then I must take those things my flesh perceives and challenge them, overlay and compare them to the Words and prayers of Spirit, for I am man and may be fooled by my wicked heart or emotions. I am comfortable with what I am left, a dependence upon God that is real, authentic and voluntarily surrendered.

For example; God’s Words are deeper than man portrays. When the Bible says in English pray for the peace of Jerusalem. It forgets, denies or ignores the fact that the Hebrew word for peace is plural, meaning pray for the wholeness of Jerusalem, peace in its entirety which will only be achieved through Christ. The same goes for the word devotion in Hebrew, which in English is simply equated with the word, mercy. But in Hebrew it means so much more than just mercy, it typifies the devotion of God toward the Jews, a devotion that is defined by His supernatural ability to love and protect them, “No Matter What”. It is easy in our simplistic understanding to keep things simple and define words in one word explanation, but the heavenly realms are multi-dimensional as depicted by Paul’s description of the breadth, the height, the width and depth of God’s love. That is four dimension which immediately indicates a necessary enlightenment to comprehend the characteristics of “four dimensions”. Without the Spirit we have no hope of understanding the world to which we claim we are heading.

Father, leave me with no regrets. Let me accomplish that which you have anointed me to complete so that your will on Earth matches that which is in Heaven. Watch over my Brothers and Sisters as they are tempted to despair by the wiles of the enemy. Let them see your Light and obtain the fullness in Peace that surpasses this world’s understanding. Prepare us eternity. In Jesus’ Holy Name.

I know I have always asked for the crash course, so that reluctantly I can say that I waited just as you’ve directed.  But we know Lord this sped up timing is not because of anything I am waiting on from you, it is because the time is short and I did pray that you would make the man you wished me to be in the time remaining.  I am sorry that I dallied so long, it is not right for me to ask now that you some how accelerate my course, but I still do.  I see that you are going to hold me to it.  I am sorry for the costs to those around me Father, it must burdensome.  I know that just as in Isaiah as he realized he was staring into the light of God and being asked to speak, I am not worthy of your presence Father.  I am clear that it is your spirit dwelling inside me and my washing in the blood of Christs that now allow me to call you Father.  I am grateful that it is real, but I still don’t deserve it.

Lord Jesus, I see so much false doctrine, spoken of even in the circle of the saints.  I wince as I hear their version of your Gospel, I beg them listen and in some instances they hear and leave, but never do they stay and show error.  Pride prohibits them from realizing how far down the broad road that had unwittingly traveled.  I wish they would have trusted what I said when I told that the only reason I mentioned anything is because I wanted to learn the Truth together.  Too bad men cannot admit their negligence in study and prayer. Lord I pray against the false prophets they are so dangerous to the remaining few left to hear the Good News of Christ.  Lord please protect the fledgling believers that they might learn the Whole and Holy Truth of Your Gospel.

I don’t want to live out on the street anymore Lord but that is where the battle ensues.  Is there a group of believers I might join to go looking for one hundred, because it seems all the churches are satisfied with the ninety-nine or thirty-seven as it appears apostasy has reduced their number.  The youth know least, for they have not known a relationship with you.  They do not know the sweet honey of your Word.  Father, again I thank you for the discipline, the education, the instruction and the encouragement.  I know that they are all facets of your perfect love for me.  I pray that I make the best use of all that you have given me and that I lift up those around me to become fulfilled in their walk with Jesus.  Love us, cover us, come and bring us home.  We await your direction and your return, Amen.

I asked him for impetus he showed me the door, and as its creaking frame dimmed the light I knew that daylight would not last forever.  What is more valuable than the love of a Father to his son?  It is the strength of each day when we know that we are loved, cherished, appreciated by our Fathers.  There is also no more resident fear than letting my Father down through embarrassment, poor performance or simple disobedience.  The tears are too large to make it through the narrow ducts of my repentant eyes.

They told me, the many voices of my Bible Family.  The prophets, my uncles of old, filled with God’s Word, trusted, never understood, yet feared for the prophetic weight in their voices and prediction.  Kings, mistakes made, yet their faith and fealty to Almighty God indelibly impressed upon our hearts and conscience for the length, breadth, width and depths of eternity.  Brothers fallen, trying to give the last ounce of their faith and courage to show their Father their feet planted firmly upon the Rock of Ages.  Children in their innocent faith, telling truths and secrets that none of us will know til Jesus.  Women, loving in a way that we cannot understand a world that has always treated them unkindly, in a quest to measure up, never feeling good enough.

The time has come.  There are no grand excuses to be offered in obeisance.  No measure of I forgot, couldn’t get to it, didn’t have time or was held up by such and such will fill the gap.  We were not born to live upon excuse yet this world pleads us do so.  No talent, no money, no time we cry to all who will listen hoping that mercy will come from a crowd bereft of it, leaving the one hanging who has always shown us such kindness.  This is the time for performance, not words, unless the Words that you have been given to speak are those same mentioned by the prophets of old.  Forgive me for being so direct, but I have no more time for beating around any bushes, for this is my duty.  Seek ye first the Kingdom of God all his righteousness and these things will be added unto you.  It is to him you must go now seeking direction and I pray that you will listen completely and obey in Holy offering of your faithful body as worship.
