Sense Fitters

How utterly boring to conform to a world view that screams to all, the innocent and the brave, “survival of the fittest”.  What manner of hysteria has overtaken humanity that the secularists may proclaim, “diversity” at all costs yet subscribe to the elimination of anything that resembles lesser gene orientation?  For the sake of their beloved, “tolerance” they would eliminate every Christian and Jew on the planet.  How then was their objective tolerance?

By their own religion, evolutionism, they would have us believe that Stephen Hawking should have been destroyed for his ailments, rather then adored, cherished and interviewed as a dynamic creation of Almighty God.  In Hitler’s Germany, he would have been destroyed out of Hitler’s desire to usher in the “perfect race” that evolutionism promises.  It is only through the Grace of God, having been born in a Judeo-Christian nation, that he has been protected and supported in to becoming a well known, respected scientist.

Of greater interest is his apparent denial for the existence of God and the impact his argument has on the general population.  Here is the difference between Christian and Evolutionist; the Christian will pray for him, hoping that God choose to have mercy on him by removing the veil that separates him from God and the Evolutionist will embrace his defiant stance, while worshiping him for his scientific denial of God’s existence and simultaneously being disgusted by his weakness in disfigurement.

Victory of the strong lacks the greatest power available in this lifetime, that being mercy and compassion, both born of love.  If only the strong survived then my life would never have been blessed by most of my tremendous friends and colleagues.  I do not doubt that I would have been included in that list of the weak.  I cherish the weak, love the innocent and pray that God gives me the abundance to dispel the poverty and illness of the unfortunate.  Those who resist God not only lack reason but they also lack heart.

Would you be the one to evolve and show the world your newly emerged mental competencies?  That is just the same old pursuit attempted and judged by your predecessor in an attempt to replace God upon His throne.  We all wish to do magic, use telekinesis and practice transformation of energies and matter.  Why do we wish to have these powers?  Isn’t it for the same reasons that any other tyrant, bully or would-be emperor desired greater authority, prowess or militaristic projection?  I fail to see that we have evolved as a species at all, as we continue to do the same horrid things to each other throughout the ages, indeterminate of who is in power.

Would a reign under your newly evolved capacity be any different?  How then would life be to the recently evolved, suddenly set apart from the rest of humanity?  Would you rise to control of the masses or possibly be eradicated as “different” or odd?  As with most liberal theory this idea of evolution of the human race is strong on imagination and absent empiricism.  If survival of the fittest were law not theory, then the gene pool of man would certainly have been cleansed of any weak aberrations by this point in our “so called” evolutionary cycle.

Being and growing in resemblance to Christ is a walk in victory.  This is the true trans-formative advancement of humanity.  We begin to utilize the qualities of the Holy Spirit, understand the fear-dispelling courage of Christ and possess a sacrificial love for fellow man.  Christ never faded when the Father’s Will was at stake, he never faltered to do what must be done, even when it challenged the impossible.  Christ resisted the enemy throughout a lifetime of assault, the likes of which none of us could begin to comprehend.  Jesus, could have been worshiped here on Earth, by calling forth legions of angels to dispel His enemies and protect Him, yet He chose to be humiliated for the fulfillment of God’s Holy Plan for humanity.  That is the sacrificial courage of a kind that we are all called to emulate, standing in the face of total loss and fulfilling each of our personal destinies to the Glory of God’s Will.  Jesus had all the power and glory at His disposal yet “chose” not to use it out of love for the Father and love for us.  We must never downplay the power of choice, for this is the freedom associated with true love.

I love God and I love my fellow humans.  Yes, even my enemies, for they still possess the opportunity to choose Christ.  When that opportunity is removed and they are truly among the damned I will pray for God’s mercy upon their souls but they will become unlovable.  That is why I have no love for the powers and principalities that continually defy God, for they have no love in them, no saving Grace of God, no chance at redemption.  They are simply, wood for the fire, as Jesus has portrayed them.  I will not practice the impoverished thinking of those intent on denying God, whether by science, religion, mysticism or self-help.  There is no master race, no evolved species, no elitist group elevated to pious position.  There are only those who have chosen to obey God and those who defy Him.  I pray that you not be found sitting on the fence or worse yet blaspheming the Holy Spirit in denial of Christ when God finally says, pencil’s down, pass your papers to the front.

Myths and experience

http://www.jpost.com/International/Exclusive-Cornered-but-unbound-by-nuclear-pact-Israel-reconsiders-military-action-against-Iran-382541  Is there Biblical context to this portended strike by Israel upon Iran?  What does the Word of God say about this potential issue?

My prayers are made manifest by footfalls of my walk with Jesus.  This is crunch-time, the fourth quarter the denouement, the period where mystic, meets magic meets miracles of God.  The prevalence and increased occurrence of coincidence in my life is validating my theory regarding the preciousness of our remaining moments in service to Christ Jesus.  Each day, I am led into relationship with the exact people who by thought, meditation and prayer have been seeking the assets to evoke their perceived purpose for the Kingdom and their legacy.  Kindred spirits are being gathered for the purpose of Harvest and if this is ignored, simply regarded as coincidence, then perhaps the value of Divine introductions will be lost in opportunity.  Look around you, the birds have comfortably nested within the mustard tree, relegating most believers to powerless personal ministry.  For those believers who have been aware, obedient and watchful, the opposite is obvious.  Individual ministries are beginning to take shape.  The fire of one ember, put to bellows and kindled by the fuel of Brothers is beginning to produce an inferno that will soon be beyond dismissal.  Even this day there are millions who have never bent a knee to Baal.  On that comfort and the hope in God’s inerrant Word I will build my house to warn all of the coming storm in the Earth’s tribulation, The GREAT DAY of OUR LORD and the time of Jacob’s trouble.

God Bless Israel, for her moment of testing approaches.  God does not mince Words when speaking of His beloved.  They are held to a standard that few of us, if any may understand.  They will not be left in their moment of trial, but surrounded by the might, power and love of Almighty God.  They must suffer for their wandering, but in the end they will be with God, as He promised.  To those nations who threaten the Nation of Israel, I pray you heed God’s Warning.  Bring no harm to her for you have poked your finger into the Eye of God.  Regardless of your thinking, your correctness in pointing out her failures, for even though you speak some truth, God has proclaimed that those who bless her shall be blessed and those who curse her shall be cursed.  It is not Israel that we should fear but God, for He has spoken of His undying faithfulness to His beloved nation, even in their adultery, God shall not abandon her even for a moment.  Be advised, be educated, be warned.  The nation of Israel shall only be judged by God, not by man’s quarrels.

I serve the Lord our God, I do not serve the adulteress actions of nations and men.  The time of action is upon us and that action requires a Love for Humanity that surpasses our own capacity for forgiveness, hope and understanding.  We must be fully dependent upon the Holy Spirit of God if we are ever to achieve that love for which we have been created, redeemed and filled by the indwelling of God’s Spirit.  If you want purpose then it is known to all  Christian’s, for Christ has defined and commanded each of as to His purpose.  Go and make disciples of men, teaching them the Gospel so that all may come to the knowledge of God through Christ.  That is a paraphrase of God’s Word on this issue, Lord please forgive me if I have indicated anything that is not consistent with Your intention.  Let us be set aflame by the indwelling of Your Baptismal Spirit.  Let us demonstrate the power of God through Christ to this world that is flooded in impotence.  Bring us a healing hand, kind hearts and the courage to stand in the face of overwhelming odds, amassed enemy forces and storms.  The time of trial approaches, let each of us look internally and make our hearts right with God for that moment when it will become paramount is assured.

Praise You Almighty Father, the one God of Heaven and Earth.  Jesus forgive and deliver us from the evil that seemingly prevails, but which must be dispelled at Your return.  Let Your return begin today in the hearts, words and walks of every Christian, let the enemy be scattered at the proclamation of our righteous and hopeful faith in YOU.

Tell the story

Making tents so that no one may say that I have come to tap into their abundance.  The Lord has given me two hands, a back and a decent mind, so that I may use the sweat of my own brow to provide for my family’s needs in continuance of our called ministry.  Granted it is difficult to work in the world without becoming caught up in the world’s monetary lust and pursuit, but as Paul and others evidenced it is entirely possible.  Where is my heart, what do I use as excuse to keep me from ministry?  Do I mourn the lack of funds as the prohibitive reasoning behind my giving, or do I give and know “in faith” that God will provide for all my needs according to His riches and Glory in Christ Jesus?  Look, I often use excuses, but the difficulty for me is that I eventually must admit to God and to myself that I have been ducking and dodging my responsibility.  The only evidence of faith that I may provide is completed work for the Kingdom.  Without action, life and faith are mere words.

If my life is Christ living, then it must be lived for others, as Christ has done.  It is no longer about me, my wants, my wills, my gifts and my bills.  What does God want of me today?  Not what is God’s will for my life so that I might find purpose in understanding the entire script for my existence, but understanding what He commands me to do today for the Good of His Pleasure.  He Loves them and wants that I remind them of that fact.  It is after all that simple.  Tell the story, forget the glory, unless of course it is for Him and the marvelous things that He does for all of us.

Lord give us understanding, purpose, reliance upon Your Word and a comprehensive imminence.  Let us be fully aware that Your return, if it is to be as a thief in the night, will probably come today, because few of us are expecting that arrival.  Give us a heart for service bringing droves of hungry hearts to the cross for cleansing salvation.  Take from us the idle self worship which requires we make and covet excuses as to why we are not telling the greatest story we have ever heard.  Scoop up the Holy Fire and throw it down upon us, igniting our hearts in passion, worship and praise for Your Glory.  A fire that spreads to the hearts of mankind bringing them back to God in fealty and faith.  Praise You Lord God for Your righteousness, patience and Truth.  In Jesus Name.

The day!

Am I preparing for Christ’s return for His Church, tonight?  If not then I fail to comprehend, accept or contemplate the principle of imminence.  I also have become determined to overlook or ignore that Jesus continued to offer preparedness parables to the faithful.  Jesus, although He continually expressed the need to spread the Gospel, so that the lost would find salvation, He repeatedly offered teaching regarding, “being ready” to the saints.  Being ready for what, you ask?  Thank you for asking.  Being ready for His return for the Church.

Jesus’ second coming will be nothing if but spectacular, coming down from the clouds, the faithful behind, to speak into existence the level judgment of the disobedient and salvation to the Jews.  Why then did He continually remind the saints that “He would come like a thief in the night”?  Clearly He referred to two differing events, one a return to snatch the Church from the judgment to come, which they were not designated to suffer, the next a dynamic entrance to take back the deed to the Earth and pass judgment on the wicked.

The Lord will at some point come to remove the faithful.  I prefer to understand and obey His repeated calls to “readiness” as a Christian.  Current evidence in the powerlessness of the Church unfortunately cries out to the absence of the Holy Spirit within those who believe they are within the Body of Christ.  Since the Lord continually called us to have “oil in our lamps”, being filled, so that we might be found “ready” when the Master comes, then the answer to this questioned readiness resides in the filling of the Holy Spirit.  This was one of the Lord’s most frequent topics when teaching to believers.  It is essential that we seek to understand this teaching and take adequate steps in faith to making our hearts, minds and spirits ready for His coming.

I look forward to the Day of the Lord.  Not because wickedness will finally be dealt a resounding blow by the Creator, but because this world will finally accept that there is one Creator, who is the rightful ruler of all universes, to include mankind.  I weep the deception ever present in today’s discussion, I mourn those lost to pursue magic potions, divination and escapism, I crave a day when the truth is no longer argued and we can get about the business of doing the work without question.  I want to serve.  I don’t want to be king.  I don’t want to be God or be honored for how well I’ve worshiped His Glory.  That is where satan’s travesty began, probably accepting glory for how well he worshiped God.  My pride is just as dangerous.  May I lead you to the Cross where you may understand God’s eternal Glory and bask in His righteousness.  May I only exist to encourage you and love you in your travails.

I am sorry that the terrorist’s quest for peace with God has left them destitute, angry and misshapen.  I pray that the Lord our God, touches their hearts in such a way that the veil of hate is removed from their eyes and they may finally see their sin, so that they may be cleansed by the Blood of Jesus Christ the King.  I am sorry that God’s enemies had to suffer death at the hand of our soldiers, I only wish that they had found Jesus reflected in our hearts, words and faces before they found it necessary to enter in war against us.  May the fire of heaven rain down upon the enemies of God and may we find it in our hearts to forgive those who have brought misfortune, pain and death to our families.  Heal us Father, take from us the bitterness that leads to rage and separation from Your Everlasting Love.  Grant this Earth Peace.  Lord rebuke Your enemies if it is in Your Will to do so, and let us love them enough to forgive them and change their hearts forever through the Power of Your Love for mankind.  In Jesus’ Name.

Evil creeps

After decades of most good men doing nothing we are faced with excess evil.  It is not as if we turned our heads and were taken by surprise, but it is in the nature of evil to deceive and ebb slowly, creeping, saturating, polluting all innocence and righteousness.  Words like slithering, creeping and eerie describe the stylistic, political or strategic approach of evil.  What we now face in this nation only has one cure, repentance with a collective cry of all believers to God Almighty to intervene for America.  2 Chronicles 7:14 sets forth God’s requirement for healing a covenant nation, which begins, “If my people who are called by My Name“.  I need go no further for God has immediately stipulated, twice, in this one statement that it is incumbent upon “Christians” to cry out in humility for God’s intervention.  The enemy is delighting in widespread wickedness because we as Christians will not join together in humility and repentance, turning our faces to God so that He might hear and heal this land.  This has always been the method by which the Lord shook awake His people, by allowing evil to gain a foothold and eventually overrun the faithful.

Evil has creeped into America’s Societal norms.  I am sure there are many who would like to discuss exactly when that process began, but none would argue that something which started out with righteous and holy intent is now near-hopelessly corrupt.  For those who were never taught the sponsoring faith of our Founders, as the schools have been relegated to the stewardship of atheistic or evolutionary unbelievers, please check out the wide list of direct quotes regarding their position on Sovereign Authority in the United States.  http://www.usachristianministries.com/us-history-quotes-about-god-and-the-bible/

Instantly recognizable names; George Washington, Samuel Adams, John Adams, Patrick Henry, John Jay, Benjamin Rush, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, etc…. and their clear belief in God’s Grace and Providence being the foundation and causality for America’s continued health and prosperity, provides consistent eye-opening evidence to the lies being proffered in our schools and public institutions.  Yet, we have allowed this to occur.  We have idly stood by and allowed the contamination, adulteration and intoxication of America.  Shall we now remain idle in dire times or join together in collective prayer to Almighty God for intervention?

It is sad to see our current leaders, arrogantly assured that they know best, then just as quickly blame others when their genius plans fail or stand up the next straw man to provide a idea which is more genius than the last.  They have forgotten their way for they are not beginning the entire process with humility and dependence upon God.  Gone is the firm reliance upon Divine Providence which directed this country’s straight and unyielding path.  I pray for our leaders as they have been appointed by God, but I also see that we have received unbelieving, duplicitous men, men of weak character, leaders for a nation who has turned its back on the God who blessed them.  Will we wake up in time to turn things around?  I personally see no evidence of this “national revival” in the Bible, but all things are possible to them who believe.  The question is do we want it enough?  Have we suffered sufficient national pain, suffering or sin misery to collectively repent?  It remains to be seen, but I know this, if we who call ourselves by His Name do not begin to cry out for the need of such national repentance it shall never occur, for God has provided the guidelines for such Divine National healing, and it begins with us.
