Lord Where Should my Footsteps Tread?

Psalm 17:5
Hold up my goings in thy paths, that my footsteps slip not.
One of the biggest questions today, I believe, on the minds of those in the Church is “Am I walking the correct path to Jesus Christ (Yahshua) or have I gotten it wrong so long that I can’t see the correct path?” Proverbs 14:12 says “There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.” Are you on the path to death? With the influx of so many different doctrines and belief systems, the average believer and would be believer will be hard pressed to find the real path to salvation.

In the Word we read in Isaiah 26:3 that “Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.” In Galatians 6:3 we find “For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself.” The Word is very clear about this concerning out walk with Him. Further in 1 Corinthians 10:12-15 we find:

Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall. There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. Wherefore, my dearly beloved, flee from idolatry. I speak as to wise men; judge ye what I say.

We know this yoke in our walk with God is easy, and the burden in our life walk we all share is light.

Matthew 11:29-30

Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.

However, we are constantly in the way of our walk. We either are bound by our emotional soul and flesh in conflict, or bound by a spiritual soul conflict. If we give our conflict to Him, He will teach us how to go through the conflict in our walk. So that next time you will go through it with a “well done my good and faithful servant.” You’ll say, “now Lord, I’m ready for the next test or trail.”

Psalm 37:23

The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and he delighteth in his way.

This goes for women as well. In this world, our footsteps have got to be ordered by God through Jesus Christ (Yahshua Messiah) our Lord and Savior! In order to cope with the entanglement of this sinful and adulteress generation, your steps must be ordered. You can’t do this by yourself, but we are all to help one another.

Titus 3:8-9

This is a faithful saying, and these things I will that thou affirm constantly, that they which have believed in God might be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable unto men. But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.

In conclusion, a hunter when pursuing a bear, looks for its tracks. If the hunter comes across deer tracks, would he stop and begin to pursue the deer? Would the hunter so soon forget that he is a bear hunter? The goal is not to change who or what you are to suit the tracks, but continue on your path and look for the bear tracks. You will be lead to the completion of your initial plans.

There Are Too Many Incompletes in Your Life

Pastor Catron has ministered on this topic in the past, however, the Lord has given a him a twist for what we are experiencing today.

 

Luke 14:16-24
Then said he unto him, A certain man made a great supper, and bade many: And sent his servant at supper time to say to them that were bidden, Come; for all things are now ready. And they all with one consent began to make excuse. The first said unto him, I have bought a piece of ground, and I must needs go and see it:I pray thee have me excused. And another said, I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to prove them:I pray thee have me excused. And another said, I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come. So that servant came, and shewed his lord these things. Then the master of the house being angry said to his servant, Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in hither the poor, and the maimed, and the halt, and the blind. And the servant said, Lord, it is done as thou hast commanded, and yet there is room. And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled. For I say unto you, That none of those men which were bidden shall taste of my supper.

 

There are too many incompletes in our lives. We all use excuses a lot of the time. Humans are the most “excusing” people you want to see, especially those of us in the House of God. In the above parable, someone had gotten a new wife, they were bid to come to dinner because there was a celebration for those invited. These people couldn’t even come to their own celebration. “I can’t come because I have a new home…I can’t come because my mother is sick…I can’t come because i just got a new job…I can’t come because this or that person might be there…” Excuses.

There is one thing that everyone has, and what comes out of it is bad, and it is “buts.” We uses “buts” so much in our lives; but, everything that comes out of a butt is what? Foul, nasty, the residue of waste; your butt is where things come out that are of no use anymore in your life. So butts, and “buts” are almost the same. “Buts” are excuses for not wanting to do something. We stand and walk proudly with a but in our hands.

 

Paul said in Act. 20:23-24

Save that the Holy Ghost witnesseth in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions abide me. But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.

 

What is our purpose as Christians? To witness to other people. If we always have a “but” when it comes to doing the Lord’s work, do we really love Him? If God says He wants you to do something, should He see your “but?” Should He see your butt? Yes. Should He hear your “but?” No!

The Lord is saying you need to complete what you’ve started. If you are incomplete in the things that you do normally, then you won’t be complete in the things your are told to do naturally; spiritually. It is time for us to stop putting things aside, and complete that which we’ve already started to do, finishing it, no matter how long it takes.

It is easy to give up, is it not? You have to give up to do what? Give up! Just don’t do anything! Incompletes tend to follow you through your life. This is the way your life is; this is what your life has become. If you are incomplete in the world, guess what you’ll be when it comes to God? Why did God save you? So you can keep the joy of salvation to yourself? Or did He save you to spread the news of how you got in? Incomplete means you get your salvation and leave it right there. You have to close all open ends in your life.

 

James  1:22-23

But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:

 

Michael Jackson wrote a song entitled “Man in the Mirror.” Sometimes we don’t want to face who we really are. Have you looked at the real person in the mirror? God is asking you to change your ways. Don’t procrastinate, or delay; move on. The incompletes are keeping you from completing what God wants for you in your life. God can’t utilize you in His will, until we become free from who we are. Lay aside every weight that so easily besets you. If you know you are a no good son of a gun, face who you are. He saved you so you can recognize who you are so you can get you straight. “Lord, I’m a Child of God, and a lier. Can they both exist together? Lord I’m a Child of God and a no good son of a gun, do they both go together?” Paul said, “Oh wretched man that I am.” You have got to look in the mirror and say “God I don’t won’t to be this anymore. Its a weight in my life.” But we have to say “God whatever it takes, make me who you want me to be.” When you look in the mirror, can you be proud of what you’ve accomplished for Him? God is telling us to clean up and get the incompletes our of our lives. When we look in the mirror of the reflections of what God says about us, that is the scary part. Is the image something that stinks in His nostrils? Be ye holy as He is holy.

 

In 2 Corinthians 3:17-18, the Word says:

Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.

 

Complete the incompletes, allow Him to let you see yourself in the mirror and get things correct.

 

What You Don’t See, is What You’re Going to Get

Part One of the Series: Don’t Turn Your Head Away, Someone’s Soul Might be Lost Today

Title: What You Don’t see, is What You’re Going to Get!
Passage: Gal.6:5-10

Our life and walk in our lord Yahshua (Jesus) today has drastically changed. We are walking by sight and not by faith, and the word says in 2 Corinthians 5:6,7 “Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord: (For we walk by faith, not by sight:)!”

The Word of God says in Ephesians 5:10-16
10 Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord. 11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them. { now the word reprove means to reprimand, rebuke, reproach scold,criticize }12 For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret. 13 But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light:for whatsoever doth make manifest is light. 14 Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light. 15 See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, 16 Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.

The word EVIL means {cruel harmful, crime, extreme moral wickedness }. There is a face of evil, and that is Satan!!  So let’s go a little deeper!

As you daily walk in your christian life, there are things that will CAPTIVATE you. Now this word means (enchant, fascinate, beguile, delight, allure, bewitch) and all of us have had a tendency to fall for whatever those things were or are! I always say “you are what you eat” whether it’s Natural food, Mental food or even Spiritual food. For instance, you can eat organic natural foods like corn, beans, wheat, rice, kale or greens, straight from clean, healthy soil of this earth with no harmful chemicals or heavy metals. Or you can buy these same products from some of your local grocers, supermarkets or super store food that contain, GMO’s which are (genetically modified organisms which are living organisms) whose genetic material has been artificially manipulated in a laboratory or other unhealthy substance. Aluminum is another widely used element and this too is found in a some baking products an other products as well. On the periodic table, it is and element of the boron group { a non-metallic solid). Phosphate which is (a inorganic chemical that is used as a fertilizer, and in some of your flavored drinks. And other man made chemicals that are not mentioned that also makes sick or make you cripple even cause death. You are what you eat.

Now as for Mental food, some might call it wisdom, knowledge whether good or bad. Either way you look at it, it gets into your mind; it will effect you. Whether emotionally, or by studying, physically by your conscious or through your subconscious; And that why big business uses advertisements and graphics today. People are so influenced by the media today that some even live by it. To some, it has even become the deciding factor in living their lives or possibly you might say there god. So whoever controls any form of the media have the potential too control that a person or people. Even people’s political involvement  for example: whether your views of politics  are either democrat or republican, there is no difference in parties.  The powers that want to be, try to control this world by positioning certain individuals in place, who they control and use them to manipulate the hearts and minds of people in society of this world. They can care less whether you choose either democrat or republican and it is just to give you a false sense control over your future . The news is also control by the same powers that want to be. Its a tool to manipulate and control people as well. Even television programing has been use by these individuals to control what you think,say,eat,even wear. Down through history affluent people in this world, has always tried to control people and nations through P.M.S.  (Power,Money,Sex) !

Spiritual food : which is the unadulterated Word of God.
But people have a tendency to manipulate words, writings, and philosophy, to define who or what they are and their sense of being. This type understanding contributes to your mind and spirit being compromised to false doctrine and demonic influence; which leads you to having a misinterpretation of the truth or the real meaning of somethings. Which bring you to a double mindedness state. One thing that is leading believers and nonbelievers to have a misunderstanding of the Word of God, are the hundreds if not thousands of versions of the KJV (King James Version) which is the original book of the Spirit inspired Words of God. You do understand  that in the multitude of words the truth can be hidden and through misinformation the meaning of a book will be lost! In KJV Bible in James 1:6-8 the Word says
6 But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. 7 For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord. 8 A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.

It is your responsibility to find out the truth about you and where you fit in God and this world and your purpose.

In Gal.6:5-10 it reads:
5 For every man shall bear his own burden. 6 Let him that is taught in the word communicate unto him that teacheth in all good things. 7 Be not deceived; God is not mocked:for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. 8 For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting. 9 And let us not be weary in well doing:for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. 10 As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.

Conclusion:
1 John 2:15-17
15 Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.17 And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.

In these hallowed Words of God they beckon true Believer to stand and live for holiness and to love our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ in Hebrew (Yahshua) with all our heart, mind and soul, and not to attach your soul to this world or the things of this world! To know Him is to love Him and love Him is to serve Him!

Conflicts of Your Christian Life

Conflicts: Things Have Changed

Conflict: A clash between hostile or opposing forces

7 Conflicts in the Christian Life

1) Christian behavior- Romans 13:1-2
“Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God. Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation.”

The powers that be will use these verses to get the Child of God to be obedient to them for the purpose of control. The old man wants to address a situation in the ways it wants to without using the Word of God. They watch to see how you are, to get your reaction.

2) Sin. Do you wrestle with sin? It is a conflict with your spiritual walk. Sin comes in all types of ways. Sin is always present.

3) To live holy or not to live holy:

James 3:1-18, James 4:1-17, Romans 13:14, Romans 6:1

4) Flesh and the Spirit – Romans 8, John 1:13

5) The voice of Jesus Christ – Sometimes we think our own voices are the voice of Jesus. But, when He truly speaks to you, you will know assuredly. “And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice. And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers.” John 10:4-5. Also see Matthew 16:17, John 10:27

6) Lust – This goes beyond sex. The lust to do evil, head games, lust to sin. Lust, money and power cause men to fall. For women,  love, financial ability, and outer appearance cause them to fall. Lust not, want not, need not. How many are lusting after Jesus? Ephesians 2:3

7) To pray or not to pray- We should know when to pray and what to prayer about and wait for God to answer. Matthew 6:7. David was a man after Gods own heart. His heart was genuine when he asked for forgiveness. We need to do the same.

These conflicts are just normally against the child of God, a part from personal conflicts. Whatever we go through, seek the answers from God, fall on your knees, fall on your face, humble yourself. He is the only hope in our Christian walk.

The New Truth is a Lie

Title: THE NEW TRUE IS THE LIE
Passage: Rom. 1:25

In the time we live in we hear instructions from our leaders, government, Pastors, Bishops, even our Bosses. They are saying in so many words that we should do this, believe that, listen me, we know best for you; And all the while they have an ulterior motive behind everything they say and do. Their hopes are to some how influence, control, to lead a stray, to manipulate, to cause them to lose hope in themselves and or their beliefs!
For instance, when it comes to government, they will lie to their people or other countries, to start a war to control their nation or to take something in that nation they want! Either to control the political views and or the belief system, no matter what it take!
As for Pastor’s they will only speak on how you can gain wealth in this life and live good on this earth. They only speak on only the scriptures that will justify their teaching or they will say cute catchy phrases that ring in you head.

Now as for Bishops,  they will perpetuate the spread the disbelieve in the scriptures because of their power, status and position wealth.

Now as for your some Bosses at work, they’re always trying to do what I call the 3 M’s : manipulate, misappropriate, and molest to control there employees life for their own benefit.

The word lie means: conscious and intentional falsehood.
In the Greek its :ψεῦδος  pseûdos (Noun Neuter  psyoo’-dos) : to utter an untruth or attempt to deceive by falsehood:–falsely, lie. To bare “false witness” is what the old testament used to describe a (Lie), a lie is a lie no matter what color you add to it, you know ” black or white Lie. ”

You the reader must first come to grips, that a lie is a premeditated action. You first had to contemplate on the matter weather long or brief, before you gave your response (lie).  It is generated out of fear of an unknown response from an action that was created by you whether positive or negative.
This is why the word says  that “all liars will have part in the lake of fire”. Rev. 21:8

As we look at the word it says in Romans 1:17-29, 31-32

17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith. 18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; 19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. 20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: 21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. 22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, 23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. 24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: 25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. 26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: 27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet. 28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; 29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, 30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, 31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

In my conclusion, the (Lie) has been man’s down fall since the being of man short time on this earth. From the garden to the grave, a lie has killed millions of people over the centuries; it has caused even our Lord and Savior Yeshua the Christ to be put to death; still killing and destroying people and nation to today. “The New Truth Is The Lie”. The word of God says that the devil is the father of a (Lie) in John 8:44:

Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own:for he is a liar, and the father of it. So if your life is full of lies then you are what you eat! Who do YOU serve !!!
