Be ye separate!

2 Corinthians 6:14-18  

Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.  Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.

Let the children of the living God hear...  

On the day that God calls us to receive His grace, a great distinction between light and darkness is manifested to us , what was once perceived by us as acceptable , suddenly becomes visible to us as utterly unacceptable. The truth of God exposes all deception,  and His Light brings us to a clear understanding of what sin is before Him. We are granted a new consciousness and attitude towards sin, God's truth becomes our lamp filled with an abundance of oil in order to light up our path in a dark world of lies and deceit.   The scripture previously mentioned calls for all true believers in Christ to live a set apart life to God.It  has always been the will of God according to evidence found in the scripture , that there be a very clear distinction between Israel and the rest of the nations.

See scripture below:

Exodus 8:23

And I will put a division between my people and thy people:    tomorrow shall this sign be.  

Exodus 11:7

But against any of the children of Israel shall not a dog move his tongue, against man or beast: that ye may know how that the LORD doth put a difference between the Egyptians and Israel.  

Numbers 23:9

For from the top of the rocks I see him, and from the hills I behold him: lo, the people shall dwell alone, and shall not be reckoned among the nations.  

In a similar manner the Church of Christ is to be reckoned among the nations,  as distinctly different and easily identified as the elect of God in Christ.
However these days, the subject of separation in light of 2 Corinthians 6 : 14- 18, has somewhat become  controversial within the body of Christ. Tolerance of sin within the church is compared to the love of Christ, and the truth concerning God's hatred of sin is viewed as judgmental.

This I believe is the greatest disease clinging to the body of Christ,  one that has been engineered by the enemy and has gone undiagnosed for years, slowly corrupting, and destroying the effectiveness of the Church of Christ on this earth.   The Word of God calls all believers in Christ to depart from iniquity,

See scripture :2 Timothy 2 : 19

Paul in various parts of his epistles to the Churches strongly encourages the body of Christ to deal with sin within the church promptly. The Word of God cannot change in order to accommodate a certain generation,  it must always be that we as the Church must either accept the whole Truth of God , or  decline from referring to ourselves as Christians. By tolerating sin in the Church of Christ , are we not blaspheming the redeeming power of the blood of Christ ?

See scripture : 1 Corinthians 5:8-12 Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth. I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with fornicators: Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world. But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat. For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not ye judge them that are within?  

Compromising within the Church of Christ is the reason why the Name of our redeemer is blasphened by those on the outside, compromise on the Truth, drims out the light of the Church that's supposed to be drawing in those who walk in darkness. The worldliness of the body of Christ allows no distinction to exsist between those on the inside and those on the outside.

For example, worldly women on some occasions seemed to be more decently dressed than many woman found in the Church of Christ, appropriateness and modesty  is rare in the House that  is called after the Name of God. The House of God, should be a place of reverence to the LORD, and not a display of worldliness. How can salvation be preached to those on the outside, whilst majority of those who names the name of Christ are themselves far from truly understanding the salvation that is found in Christ.  

The gospel of love = tolerance of sin= blasphemy against the suffering and death of Christ= ineffective to lead the lost to the salvation of their souls.  

The gospel of Truth= dealing with sin=setting an example of the holiness and power in Christ= drawing in the lost , to hear the Word in truth, to the salvation of their souls.  

To withdraw from those who continue in sin and still name the Name Of Christ , is love rather than judgement. To be silent and accepting of sin, is true hatred toward the person going astray in sin. In this case silence will not only destroy the individual's life in the flesh,  but will ultimately cause eternal death to reign over the individual's soul.

See 1 Corinthians 5:4-5  

Many share in on others sins because they fail to hear and abide by the whole truth of the Gospel, most find it controversial to saperate themselves from sinning family members and friends whom name the Name of Christ,  yet live unrepentant and irreverent lives. It is not for the body of Christ to judge those on the outside, but rather those on the inside. Is it not Christ Himself that said :  

Luke 12:51

Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division:  

Matthew 10:36-38

And a man's foes shall be they of his own household. He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth  son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me.  

Did any of those who dishonor the LORD in disobedience to the Word of God,  suffer death on the cross for the salvation of your soul ?  Can those we choose to please other than Christ offer us eternal life?   Is this not this the attitude that every one that names the Name of Christ should have ?  

Galatians 2 : 20  

I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.  

Beloved of God in Christ, hear these words, repent and turn , the time is short...   May the LORD be glorified in His Word.
In Jesus name Amen.

Witnessing for Christ

God created us to be witnesses of the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the world. He has equipped us with the Word of everlasting life, and has blessed us with His Spirit of Truth to guide us in all things.

I have found that only God has the power and ability to ultimately change the heart, mind and situation according to His Will and time, not mine. Prayer being one of our greatest tools, faith in God to see it through our greatest weapon in life.

Praise JEHOVAH, our eternal Light.

Amen.

True wisdom is only of God...

Do not be intimidated, by numbers and by men whom hold worldly wisdom . For the wisdom of the Spirit of God, by far outweighs the wisdom of the world . And even if  you are surrounded by many whom are trying to shrewdly catch you out with words or discourage you,  do not be dismayed. Wait on the Lord , do not be overly eager to react, allow the Spirit to lead you. Because if we allow the Spirit of God to do this , even the "wise, or intelligent" according the world will be left without a word to say. The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Truth, conviction and true wisdom originates from God. For even though you are not learned according to worldly standards, if you are established in the Word of eternal life, your wisdom will be perfected through the Holy Spirit and will exceedingly surpass that of the world.Wait on the Lord's Spirit to work through you, and do not allow status to intimidate you.

Praises to the Most High God, the Holy one of Israel.

Call upon the Name of the LORD and be saved

John 1:12  
But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
 
Isaiah 45:22  
Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else.  

Joel 2 : 32  
And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the LORD shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the LORD hath said, and in the remnant whom the LORD shall call.

Repent , turn to Christ in truth and receive salvation for your soul, He is the mighty redeemer, His blood covers all sin, His love drives away all fear,
Allelujah!  Praise The LORD,  come JEHOVAH come!

Amen.

The truth will set you free.

Man of Sin ...

2 Thessalonians 2: 3-4  

It is written that in the last days that many false prophets and false Christ's will arise, in order to decieve the nations,  and possibly even the elect in Christ.  

See Matthew 24:24  

Many Christians will be decieved,  and fall into strong delusion because of failure to love the truth.  

Many don't yet realise that what was written years ago, has been manifested in this time,  proving that the Word of God is Truth...   In all discretion will I post two scriptures that has been revealed to me, I will not be expouding on whom this pertains to, I trust that those who are meant to understand this will understand and help others to understand .

Habakkuk  2:4 Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the just shall live by his faith.  2:5 Yea also, because he transgresseth by wine, he is a proud man, neither keepeth at home, who enlargeth his desire as hell, and is as death, and cannot be satisfied, but gathereth unto him all nations, and heapeth unto him all people:    

Daniel 11:37   Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women, nor regard any god: for he shall magnify himself above all.  

A few points to note,  

1.  He is perceived to be a man of ” faith”
2.  He gathers himself unto every nation
3.  He is described as one whom transgresseth by wine.
4.  He does not hold the desire of woman  

Many are those who have already been decieved by him, his words are smoother than oil, and sweeter than honey to the taste. The gospel of love he proclaims, but what happened to the Gospel of Truth ?  

God’s Love abides only in His Truth, the two cannot be separate from each other. Is it not written ” The truth will set you free” ?  

God’s Word is eternal,  and it can never change, especially to accommodate sin. God is Holy, and He cannot behold any form of sin. Jesus Christ Son of God sacrificed His life for sinners.  

THIS IS THE WORD OF GOD IN TRUTH:  

2 Timothy  2:19 Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are His. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.    

Proverbs 14:12 declares :   There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.  

Let those whom have ears, hear….

Amen.

He knew my soul in adversity.

My eternal hope is in You LORD, What can prevail over Your righteousness my Savior, whom can shorten the Redeemer's hand ?  

He knew my soul in adversity, His Eternal Word sanctified me.  

This testimony O LORD abides mightily in me, I know greater Zeal in this life,than to live by Your every Word my LORD.  

Take my life ,and turn it into continual praise, may even my darkest hour bring honour to Your Holy Name.  

Thank you LORD for saving me.Amen.

Bound by sin freed by Love...

Isaiah  61:1 The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;

I now know,  that no greater love exsist, than the love that God has for the world. I know that no greater sacrifice could ever be given, than the only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. I now more than ever understand why a sacrifice so precious and priceless was necessary.  

In a dark prison , my captor held me fast,  my sins were my bars, my ignorance of the truth, was what bound me. Abiding by the doctrines of men trapped me. It was the Word of God that found ransom for my soul , His Light and His Truth delivered me, and from the chains of life’s deceit He freed me. I know that because of prayers that were said , that in Jesus Name He remembered me, my prison house was opened by the Key of His Grace.

He calls today to those whom by Grace He has granted ears to hear,  to remember those who are unable to hear , because of their captivity. Pray for the bound to be loosed, the Word of God declares :  

Matthew 9:37 Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few;   Matthew 9:38  Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.  

Amen.

Deliver those who are drawn toward death...Proverbs 24:11-12

This message is one of high importance , to those whom the Grace of God has been granted, by the precious Blood of Christ. To those who have believed unto salvation,  and have lived in obedience to the Eternal Word, who walk in the Spirit and have not heeded the desires of the flesh.

We have watched and are witnesses to the very last of days,  the Word of God according to all that has been foretold,  is slowly coming to pass in front of our very eyes. We by our gracious Savior Jesus Christ have been commissioned to work while it is yet day,  for the night is almost here, where none will be able to do any work,  (the day when the daily sacrifice is taken away) see my previous post on the daily sacrifice .

The time has come to pray as we have never prayed before for those who are being led astray unto eternal death.  This is our highest commission in this world to intercede for others,  we have obtained mercy, let us be merciful towards others, by earnestly praying for the salvation of  even those who persecute us. Jude1 : 22 - 23,  instructs us to pray using  discernment .

I was led by the Spirit to understand today that prayer intercession at this time is of utmost importance,  and was guided to the following scriptures :

Jude 1:22-23 
1John 5:14-17 
James5:15-20 
2 Timothy 2:23-26 
1 Timothy 2:1-4 
Matthew 16:19 
Matthew 18:18-20 
John 29:23 Job22:30 
Proverbs 24:11-12 
Job 33:23-28

There is been so much happening in my personal life lately,that my prayer focus has been on my personal struggles in Christ. All  that’s has been happening has blinded me to God’s Will for my life, I have become somewhat selfish and self focused,  forgetting about those who are on the outside. We are the lights of this world,  and our persecutions are placing us under baskets. I believe that this is one of the greatest weapon used by the enemy, in hindrance of prayer.

We are called to watch and pray, watch we have and majority of us has discerned the time,  still others have been diligent in prayers. But to those like myself who have been tossed about to lose focus,  our Lord is calling us to regain our composure and pray fervently for others. We have been granted the highest authority that exsist,  the Name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, and the gates of hell will never prevail against the True Church of  Christ. Amen.

Daily sacrifice taken away
