May We Die To Live

Job 19


Then Job answered and said:

² “How long will you torment my soul,
And break me in pieces with words?
³ These ten times you have reproached me;
You are not ashamed that you have wronged me.^[a]
4 And if indeed I have erred,
My error remains with me.
⁵ If indeed you exalt yourselves against me,
And plead my disgrace against me,
⁶ Know then that God has wronged me,
And has surrounded me with His net.

⁷ “If I cry out concerning wrong, I am not heard.
If I cry aloud, there is no justice.
⁸ He has fenced up my way, so that I cannot pass;
And He has set darkness in my paths.
⁹ He has stripped me of my glory,
And taken the crown from my head.
¹⁰ He breaks me down on every side,
And I am gone;
My hope He has uprooted like a tree.
¹¹ He has also kindled His wrath against me,
And He counts me as one of His enemies.
¹² His troops come together
And build up their road against me;
They encamp all around my tent.

¹³ “He has removed my brothers far from me,
And my acquaintances are completely estranged from me.
¹⁴ My relatives have failed,
And my close friends have forgotten me.
¹⁵ Those who dwell in my house, and my maidservants,
Count me as a stranger;
I am an alien in their sight.
¹⁶ I call my servant, but he gives no answer;
I beg him with my mouth.
¹⁷ My breath is offensive to my wife,
And I am repulsive to the children of my own body.
¹⁸ Even young children despise me;
I arise, and they speak against me.
¹⁹ All my close friends abhor me,
And those whom I love have turned against me.
²⁰ My bone clings to my skin and to my flesh,
And I have escaped by the skin of my teeth.

²¹ “Have pity on me, have pity on me, O you my friends,
For the hand of God has struck me!
²² Why do you persecute me as God does,
And are not satisfied with my flesh?

²³ “Oh, that my words were written!
Oh, that they were inscribed in a book!
²⁴ That they were engraved on a rock
With an iron pen and lead, forever!
²⁵ For I know that my Redeemer lives,
And He shall stand at last on the earth;
²⁶ And after my skin is destroyed, this I know,
That in my flesh I shall see God,
²⁷ Whom I shall see for myself,
And my eyes shall behold, and not another.
How my heart yearns within me!
²⁸ If you should say, ‘How shall we persecute him?’—
Since the root of the matter is found in me,
²⁹ Be afraid of the sword for yourselves;
For wrath brings the punishment of the sword,
That you may know there is a judgment.”

Job understands the chastening of our Lord.  God wants us humble and willing, that every part of our being is serving Him.  He has made us from dust to serve Him, and honor Him.  He has become the chief cornerstone and a great stumbling block, a rock of offense to all who are disobedient to the word to which we were appointed, (1 Peter 2:7-8).  Job took on verbal and mental abuse like no other from his people.  Because He knew within his heart God was there with him.  Christ says, as He has suffered, we must suffer.  We must understand all the love, smiles, charity, healing, and abuse our Lord went through to give us everlasting peace, a people made from dust.  God demands order and love in His kingdom, a kingdom He built for us to take dominion over.  It had gotten to the point that even Job's servants ignored him.  How heartless can one be?  When you turn against your own benefactor blatantly and still take his money for your horrible services.  And Job wouldn't lash back, dying daily for his God.  But still no one would turn to God.  Though, Job got his wish.  When he asked in verse 23 that if only his words be written, inscribed in a book written with an iron pen so all may know our God lives and breathes this day that we can all see heaven.  We must yearn for God deep from within the depths of our hearts, then want to sacrifice the ultimate sacrifice of your life by coming out of this world and out of its thinking.  May we die to live. 

Blessings as we make life in God forevermore,

Sacrifice For Life

Romans 12:1-3

 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. ² And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
³ For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith.


We are in a battle within our minds.  We ask ourselves should we do this?  or should we do that?  Our Lord tells us we've been bought at a price (His blood) and we no longer belong to ourselves.  In verse 1 He says, that we ought to present our "bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which" should be our reasonable service in serving Him.  Our spirits are what move our fleshly body that we live in today, and the demonic realm knows this.  So they speak to our untrained spirit minds constantly hoping we will do all the things that go against God's word and we do.  God states we don't fight against flesh and blood, but the spirits that move around us in the unknown.  God asks us, to be transformed by the renewing of our minds through His word and commands, that we may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.  When we think, believe, and walk the word of God, we will see the word manifest around us, proving every man a liar and God's word truth.  God speaks of extraordinary events happening in our ancestors lives long ago.  Now it's up to us to manifest our Angels and God before our eyes, seek His word and love so intently that visions, dreams, goals, and aspirations for what God tells us we can have will mount up on the inside of us launching us straight to our inheritances.  But in verse 3 the bible tells us to not think of ourselves more highly than we ought.  We can't think we're better than Jesus Christ who came to serve, and not be served.  We are moving around one another in a spirit of competition that's always trying to out do the next man.  We compare ourselves among ourselves on a constant basis.  God says He has given each of us a measure of faith.  Now it is up to us to use it.  Stir it up with love and sacrifice for life. 

Blessings to you sacrifices for God, sacrifice,

Inheritance

Genesis 15:1-6


After these things the word of the Lord came to Abram in a vision, saying, “Do not be afraid, Abram. I am your shield, your exceedingly great reward.”
² But Abram said, “Lord God, what will You give me, seeing I go childless, and the heir of my house is Eliezer of Damascus?” ³ Then Abram said, “Look, You have given me no offspring; indeed one born in my house is my heir!”
⁴ And behold, the word of the Lord came to him, saying, “This one shall not be your heir, but one who will come from your own body shall be your heir.” ⁵ Then He brought him outside and said, “Look now toward heaven, and count the stars if you are able to number them.” And He said to him, “So shall your descendants be.”
⁶ And he believed in the Lord, and He accounted it to him for righteousness.




 Our God wants to give us a great inheritance, only we cannot be afraid to clean up our minds and actions to righteousness.  A righteous spirit can only come from our Lord.  The things God asks and commands are what leads us into righteousness.  We cannot do this on our own.  God asks us to not be afraid.  He will be our shield.  This means as we walk each day trying to please God and not man, we are not to be bothered by their looks, stares, rudeness, and ignorance that will come our way as we seek righteousness and our inheritance.  God says in His word to not grow weary in doing good.  He's saying our words and deeds to one another must be tested and tried.  This is to form resilience and perfect character within us.  Do all things without complaining He asks.  Be angry but do not sin.  Do not compare ourselves among ourselves.  God has a litany of things He requires us to train in.  He requires us to become righteous human beings that He can be pleased with, and that others can come to respect because of His truth and the love we have for Him.  God wants to build true sincere characters out of us so that we will always consider the next human as a brother or sister, reaping great rewards by doing so.  However, we first must believe and have faith as Abraham did in the word of God to begin our journey to righteousness.  Believe me it is not hard and God's truth will overwhelm you with joy.  Look into life's reality and receive your inheritance. 


Blessings to all as righteousness releases our inheritance,

Brothers And Sisters

Matthew 18:10-35


 “See that you do not despise one of these little ones. For I tell you that their angels in heaven always see the face of my Father in heaven.
¹² “What do you think? If a man owns a hundred sheep, and one of them wanders away, will he not leave the ninety-nine on the hills and go to look for the one that wandered off? ¹³ And if he finds it, truly I tell you, he is happier about that one sheep than about the ninety-nine that did not wander off. ¹⁴ In the same way your Father in heaven is not willing that any of these little ones should perish.
¹⁵ “If your brother or sister sins, go and point out their fault, just between the two of you. If they listen to you, you have won them over. ¹⁶ But if they will not listen, take one or two others along, so that ‘every matter may be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses.’ ¹⁷ If they still refuse to listen, tell it to the church; and if they refuse to listen even to the church, treat them as you would a pagan or a tax collector.
¹⁸ “Truly I tell you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.
¹⁹ “Again, truly I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything they ask for, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven. ²⁰ For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them.”
²¹ Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, “Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me? Up to seven times?”
²² Jesus answered, “I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.
²³ “Therefore, the kingdom of heaven is like a king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants. ²⁴ As he began the settlement, a man who owed him ten thousand bags of gold was brought to him. ²⁵ Since he was not able to pay, the master ordered that he and his wife and his children and all that he had be sold to repay the debt.
²⁶ “At this the servant fell on his knees before him. ‘Be patient with me,’ he begged, ‘and I will pay back everything.’ ²⁷ The servant’s master took pity on him, canceled the debt and let him go.
²⁸ “But when that servant went out, he found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred silver coins. He grabbed him and began to choke him. ‘Pay back what you owe me!’ he demanded.
²⁹ “His fellow servant fell to his knees and begged him, ‘Be patient with me, and I will pay it back.’
³⁰ “But he refused. Instead, he went off and had the man thrown into prison until he could pay the debt. ³¹ When the other servants saw what had happened, they were outraged and went and told their master everything that had happened.
³² “Then the master called the servant in. ‘You wicked servant,’ he said, ‘I canceled all that debt of yours because you begged me to. ³³ Shouldn’t you have had mercy on your fellow servant just as I had on you?’ ³⁴ In anger his master handed him over to the jailers to be tortured, until he should pay back all he owed.
³⁵ “This is how my heavenly Father will treat each of you unless you forgive your brother or sister from your heart.”




We are lost sheep who need to find our way home to Father God.  Most of us haven't been raised right, loved right, or nourished right in the promises of  God to walk through this life into our inheritances.  Our angels speak to God daily, making Him aware of our every move if need be, not to mention the authority they have over our lives to keep us on the straight and narrow and into heaven.  The word of God is so powerful and moving under His authority right now that when incidents, setbacks, and other misfortunes happen to us it is most of the time called on by our angels.  We are not to be walking this earth barely getting by and barely getting along with each other.  Joy, happiness, peace, and riches, are to be manifesting in our lives daily when we know who we live for and work for, God.  God has a will that not any of us perish, being separated from Him through all eternity.  We are His family and He sent His only Son down to prove it.  He asks us in verse 15 if one brother sins against us, to go and tell him.  We are to connect as children of God and interact as such.  The world is to be operating under the laws and commandments of the bible so when complaints and disorder arises we can take our situation to the Church, then if the church cast us out because we're not lined up to scripture we really have something to think about.  Whatever we bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever we loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.  But we're so biblically untrained that things are flying at us from all sides of the spiritual realm that we've come undone.  Peter asked how many times are we to forgive our brothers ands sisters.  Jesus said seventy-seven.  We bleed the same blood no matter our color.  God sees us through the blood, not our color.  Jesus said the kingdom of heaven is like a certain king who wanted to settle His accounts with his servants.  So the king had compassion on the man who humbled himself and worked out his matter in the supposed truth.  But when that same servant did not do the same he felt the consequences from the king and the king put him in jail and tortured him until all was paid back.  We are to treat each other as we want to be treated through biblical teaching so we can work out our salvation with fear and trembling.  All the servants of the king were very disappointed in that servants actions towards the other servant.  This means all were in favor of the kings decisions and commands.  As we are to be over our King's commands and receive world peace.  Brothers and sisters lets come together.


Blessings Father God as we come together as your children,

Love Children

Matthew 18:1-9






At that time the disciples came to Jesus, saying, “Who then is greatest in the kingdom of heaven?”
² Then Jesus called a little child to Him, set him in the midst of them, ³ and said, “Assuredly, I say to you, unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven. ⁴ Therefore whoever humbles himself as this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. ⁵ Whoever receives one little child like this in My name receives Me.
⁶ “Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to sin, it would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were drowned in the depth of the sea. ⁷ Woe to the world because of offenses! For offenses must come, but woe to that man by whom the offense comes!
⁸ “If your hand or foot causes you to sin, cut it off and cast it from you. It is better for you to enter into life lame or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet, to be cast into the everlasting fire. ⁹ And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out and cast it from you. It is better for you to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes, to be cast into hell fire.




Humble ourselves as little children our Lord says in verse 4.  We are then received as great ones in the kingdom of heaven.  Our minds and hearts are to be on God and the kingdom of heaven at all times.  He looks at all as His little children.  Kingdom thoughts, and unlocked mysteries from God, are to be drawing us nearer to Him.  Only we can unlock this truth and have it revealed to us so we can be led into conquering peace for our minds, hearts, and souls.  God wants us to understand in verse 6-7 that we His children, cannot lead one another into sin or we can expect to receive a strict reprimand, in life, even its end.  Father God's laws are strict with His children, and by not adhering to them, letting our bible dictate our lives and world, He must lay down judgment on us.  We feel as if we can say whatever we want to another and not be accountable for it.  But not in the Kingdom of God.  God knows we do not understand how our world works and our world knows it doesn't know either.  However, if we don't let the truth of God's word sink deep down inside of us, letting it talk to us as a dad would talk to his child, we can't move out on it in a spirit of love and manifest it in our lives.  God wants us in sound minds pleasing Him and not ourselves, not digging ourselves deeper and deeper into hell.  Our father says in verse 5 whoever receives one of these children in His name receives Him.  So by our interactions not being under the blood of Christ, we have our differences, confrontations, and problems all for nothing, because we're pleasing self once again instead of God.  This is why most of our thoughts and plans never turn out like we hoped or planed.  We have so many problems in our world today that we can't get a hold of ourselves, or take the time for ourselves to slow down life and draw closer to God, being grateful and thankful that we can.  Then by letting God see these traits in our lives, He can draw closer to us.  God is gentle, loving, and caring.  We must become so also to draw near to Him.  He won't push Himself up on us, as we can't push up on Him.  He asks us to choose whom we want, that beast satan or His love that is real, tantalizing, mesmerizing, and supernatural.  Love children.


Blessings children of love.  Love,

That Wicked Heart

2 Samuel 11:6-17




Then David sent to Joab, saying, “Send me Uriah the Hittite.” And Joab sent Uriah to David. ⁷ When Uriah had come to him, David asked how Joab was doing, and how the people were doing, and how the war prospered. ⁸ And David said to Uriah, “Go down to your house and wash your feet.” So Uriah departed from the king’s house, and a gift of food from the king followed him. ⁹ But Uriah slept at the door of the king’s house with all the servants of his lord, and did not go down to his house. ¹⁰ So when they told David, saying, “Uriah did not go down to his house,” David said to Uriah, “Did you not come from a journey? Why did you not go down to your house?”
¹¹ And Uriah said to David, “The ark and Israel and Judah are dwelling in tents, and my lord Joab and the servants of my lord are encamped in the open fields. Shall I then go to my house to eat and drink, and to lie with my wife? As you live, and as your soul lives, I will not do this thing.”
¹² Then David said to Uriah, “Wait here today also, and tomorrow I will let you depart.” So Uriah remained in Jerusalem that day and the next. ¹³ Now when David called him, he ate and drank before him; and he made him drunk. And at evening he went out to lie on his bed with the servants of his lord, but he did not go down to his house.
¹⁴ In the morning it happened that David wrote a letter to Joab and sent it by the hand of Uriah. ¹⁵ And he wrote in the letter, saying, “Set Uriah in the forefront of the hottest battle, and retreat from him, that he may be struck down and die.” ¹⁶ So it was, while Joab besieged the city, that he assigned Uriah to a place where he knew there were valiant men. ¹⁷ Then the men of the city came out and fought with Joab. And some of the people of the servants of David fell; and Uriah the Hittite died also.




Jeremiah 17:9-10 says, "The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked; Who can know it?  I the Lord search the heart and test the mind, even to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruits of his doings."  This was Uriah's King, a man God placed over his nation to protect and love them.  However, God tells us in Jeremiah 17:5 "Cursed is the man who trusts in man and makes flesh his strength, whose heart departs from the Lord."  Only God knows how much we are sacrificing in all we do and say for our Lord Jesus Christ.  We have been bought at a price and no longer belong to ourselves God says, and it should be our honor to serve Him.  But our spirit is willing, and our flesh weak.  The lengths David went through to keep his name, reputation, and mind in a place of pleasing himself, even murder, causes us to ask ourselves who's really in charge?  God?  Who would not want a friend like Uriah?  He was dedicated, trusting, loyal, and caring.  And with all his wonderful traits he still lost his life behind an adulteress man and woman who couldn't control their flesh and obey God's commandments.  King David even brought others in on his fleshly desires to sin.  This is why God asks us to work out our own salvation with fear and trembling.  If these events can happen while serving our Lord with one foot in the kingdom and one in hell, just think if we gave Him all of us, loving Him as we want to be loved by Him.  Get rid of that wicked heart and serve our Lord.  (Ephesians 4:17-19) "This I say, therefore, and testify in the Lord, that you should no longer walk as the rest of the Gentiles walk, in the futility of their mind, ¹⁸ having their understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God, because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart; ¹⁹ who, being past feeling, have given themselves over to lewdness, to work all uncleanness with greediness."


Blessings to all as we remove wickedness from our lives,

Don't Lust After One

2 Samuel 11:1-5


It happened in the spring of the year, at the time when kings go out to battle, that David sent Joab and his servants with him, and all Israel; and they destroyed the people of Ammon and besieged Rabbah. But David remained at Jerusalem.
² Then it happened one evening that David arose from his bed and walked on the roof of the king’s house. And from the roof he saw a woman bathing, and the woman was very beautiful to behold. ³ So David sent and inquired about the woman. And someone said, “Is this not Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite?” ⁴ Then David sent messengers, and took her; and she came to him, and he lay with her, for she was cleansed from her impurity; and she returned to her house. ⁵ And the woman conceived; so she sent and told David, and said, “I am with child.”


God asks us to not lust with our eyes, nor covet another persons belongings.  He wants to be the one to give us our hearts desires, but this can only be done when we obey His commandments.  The lust of our eyes can lead to sin in God's eyes.  So the flesh must be killed.  David, while a war was going on with his people, when prayer, fasting, and offering could have been made, was home in the palace focusing on sexual pleasure.  He had a harem of wives, so we see how far the flesh will go to be pleased because he wasn't content with that.  This is why we must love God first, believe in His promises, then deny our flesh for its profits.  God speaks on how we are to act and conduct ourselves in every situation in life through His word.  However, by not placing Him and the word into our hearts with actions turmoil is the result.  God speaks about David's and most men's sin today in Proverbs 6:25, "Do not lust after her beauty in your heart nor let her allure you with her eyelids.  For by means of a harlot a man is reduced to a crust of bread; And an adulteress will prey upon his precious life."  I watched my mother do this to many men.  Matthew 3:28 speaks "But I say to you that whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart."  God has preordained lives for us that are to fulfill our every want and desire.  Even that beautiful woman who will take care of us for the rest of our lives.  The book has been written with, its laws, statutes, ordinances and commands.  It is now up to us to perform them for a better life and world.  Don't lust after one (Exodus 20:12-17)  “Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long upon the land which the Lord your God is giving you.
¹³ “You shall not murder.
¹⁴ “You shall not commit adultery.
¹⁵ “You shall not steal.
¹⁶ “You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
¹⁷ “You shall not covet your neighbor’s house; you shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, nor his male servant, nor his female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor’s.”


Blessings to all as we deny the lusts of our flesh for God,
