Let’s Get Deeper in Jesus’ Will for Our Lives

Lets get deeper. Sometimes we go surface. Deep mean you go into the root of the whole thing. Why are you here? When you understand God’s heart, and the fact that He saw your ending before your beginning, and He knew you before you made it here on Earth. For Him to understand and know you, its a special thing. He knows your quarks, He know how your soul was before it came here. You were up in Heaven before you came here to Earth, because you were conceived in Heaven. That is why you should be longing to go home to Heaven.

Have you ever had something happen in your life where you didn’t understand what was going on around you? Have you ever had clarity in your life at one point where you say “wow, I’m here.” Have you ever had an epiphany? It goes beyond that. You’ll have the, I-know-who-I-am moment. I knew who I was and where I was, not location wise, but where I was in my walk. You’ve heard the term crystal clear, yes? Even the word crystal means a solid material whose constituents are arranged in a highly order microscopic structure. Why is that so important? Can you look through walls or ceilings? But if every molecule was operating at the same frequency, then you could look straight through it. When you understand what Christ means to you and you understand what He did for you to get you where you are today, then it should be crystal clear that He loves you, needs you, and that you have a purpose. Because of that fact, where are you now?

People always say they see you, and know all about you, but in reality they don’t. The only one who knows you for who you really are is Christ. If he knows about you and says He loves you, why do you question when He says something to you? He already knows what the response is before you say it. Lets get deeper than that. When you woke up yesterday, He already knew what your plans were for that day. He knew what kind of mindset you’d have while doing it. He knew what your heart was going to think—-every vibration of movement in you—-He knew what would take place. We never can perceive the move of God in our lives, because if we can’t see it, touch it, taste it or smell it, then its not what it is.

I see thing happening in people’s lives; sometimes I see things that I don’t want to see. But when the Lord gives me leave, then I speak about it. I walked into a room where a demon was on a person, but I didn’t call it out. The demon knew I knew it, and everyone around had hatred, anger, selfishness, and that demon was at home. Because demons thrive in confusion. They can’t thrive in structure; they must get out. So it dwells in confusion and mess.

Christ came that we would have life more abundantly. He came that we would be free and delivered from us. Satan has no realm or dominion over you because you’re a Child of God. God came to set the captives—those ruled and captivated by Satan—free. Resist, and he will flee. What is resist mean? To hold back. To let go of that temptation. You know when you’re right in the middle of arguing with someone, and you have one word that will resolve the situation, but really makes it worse. That kind word, leave out of your head, and that harsh word comes. Satan want to tick you off to get you to stumble, and he usually does it before those who are Christians. The Lord is able to determine and interpret the very intents of people’s hearts. People may put on a show before others, but He knows the heart. If you have a deeper relationship with Christ, you wouldn’t be acting crazy like you are today. Most of the time, people tend to follow after the crowd, but not after Christ. The Lord is trying to teach us one thing: to get deeper in Him. Because if we understand Him, then we understand where we are.

Has anyone ever asked you a question, and because you didn’t care for them, know them or like them, to get them out of your space, you pretend as though you agree with them? Sometimes we give people response to something out of fear because we’re afraid that they won’t do what we’ve asked them to do or be where we want them to be. You don’t understand a word they speak, but you’re afraid of their reaction. It takes a lot of self control and disciple to give a person the truth in every case when its put upon you, instead of dancing around the truth. How can you go deeper in Christ when you’re still living a surface life, and still walking a surface walk? Well what’s a deep walk? When your meditation with God is not about you but about Him. Everyone here, including me always go to God and ask Him something to benefit us. But do we ever go to Him and ask how He’s doing, what His heart is? Philippians 4:19 says “But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.” Why do we ask God for stuff? He already knows what you need. If you go through things, you don’t think He knows. When we ask for things, sometimes we ask for the wrong things.

Deeper understanding of who God is and what we need to do to get a better relationship. It takes a heck of a relationship to walk up to bones in a grave and say live and the bones get up. It takes a heck of a relationship that Elijah being dead, when a dead person was thrown on him, that the person lived. Elijah had holiness to the bone, that even his bones emanate the glory of God. Why? Because he had a deeper relationship with Christ. Back then it was the Spirit of God, not the Holy Ghost, that dwelt with men. Christ is a relational type individual. The last thing He did when He left out was he had a relationship with 12 men and 2 women. What does that tell you? He wants a relationship with you. More than just a man wants a relationship with you, who can love you mentally or physically, Jesus can love you to your soul. He wants a relationship with you that you two can talk.

Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds;


Colossians 3:9

When you’re in the world, your mindset has a deed behind it. When someone gets on your nerve, or pushed that last button of your emotions, how do you react? Unkindly? How deep is Christ in you? Are you willing to hear the truth from someone?

10 And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:

Colossians 3:10

It is critical that people be honest with themselves and with others because it is written that there is nothing that is hid that shall not be made known, as in the case of the woman at the well:

4 And he must needs go through Samaria. 5 Then cometh he to a city of Samaria, which is called Sychar, near to the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.

John 4:4-5

What is Samaria? Its a piece of land in central Canna, the capital of the 10 tribes that revolted against David. These tribes contain two tribes of Israel, Ephraim and Manasseh, which contained a mixed group of ethnic people. The Jews had no dealings with the Samaritans because they were mixed with all manour of foreigners. The Jews were told not to deal with the Samaritans because of this fact, though the Samaritans believed in God.

6 Now Jacob’s well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied with his journey, sat thus on the well: and it was about the sixth hour. 7 There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus saith unto her, Give me to drink. 8 (For his disciples were gone away unto the city to buy meat.) 9 Then saith the woman of Samaria unto him, How is it that thou, being a Jew, askest drink of me, which am a woman of Samaria? for the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans. 10 Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water. 11 The woman saith unto him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: from whence then hast thou that living water?

John 4:6-11

She began to describe a situation in her own life. You have nothing to get the water with and the well is deep…”I’m so caught up in the mess that I’m in and I don’t know how to get out! I’m so worn out and tired in my life.” The thing that she wanted was to dip down, and get the water. The thing that could help was sitting right in front of her that could get that mess out of her life. Christ was telling her that He could give her living water. She was looking physically that there was nothing for her to get the water out of the well.

12 Art thou greater than our father Jacob, which gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle? 13 Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again: 14 But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life. 15 The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw.

John 4:12-15

She was still on the outward expression, He was answering the deep in her, calling the deep. He was calling her from out of the deep, to fill the soul. But she keep referring to a physical well.

16 Jesus saith unto her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither. 17 The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus said unto her, Thou hast well said, I have no husband: 18 For thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband: in that saidst thou truly. 19 The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet. 20 Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship. 21 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father. 22 Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews. 23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. 24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. 25 The woman saith unto him, I know that Messias cometh, which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things. 26 Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am he. 27 And upon this came his disciples, and marvelled that he talked with the woman: yet no man said, What seekest thou? or, Why talkest thou with her? 28 The woman then left her waterpot, and went her way into the city, and saith to the men, 29 Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ? 30 Then they went out of the city, and came unto him.

John 4:16-30

He was deep in her, looking deep, into the depths of her, seeing her real person, seeing the mask that she was wearing, findint out the her well was dry. She had not hope. He was telling her that her well would not go dry, because He would fill it. In our walk, are we deep with Christ like that, or are there still things in our lives we need to clear up? He was answering her spiritually, and she was asking Him naturally, but she caught it after a while. When He told her about herself, she told her whole village that He was the messiah. Its amazing how when the Lord comes into our lives, when we are hurting, asking for healing and restoration of our hearts, where no one understands, that we allow our injuries to be a burden to us. We don’t cast our cares on Jesus who cares for us. He won’t put anymore on us than we can bear without giving us a way of escape. He will show you the door. The question is do you want to take the door, or sit there and fight?

Its not easy facing who you really are. This woman at the well had issues, issues like a lot of us do. Jesus was sitting on the well, and telling her give Me water. She was dry inside, and in other words, Jesus was saying, give Me some life. But she had no life in her. She was telling Him about herself, not realizing she was talking about herself. She had nothing to pull out of herself. Its deep. In other words her hurt, pain and anguish was deep, and she had nothing to pull that deep thing that caused it out. So that is when the Lord said, He’d give her water that will never run dry, settling the issue that cause her hardship. She needed Him to fill her up to bring that mess out that was causing her to be what she was.

Christ is telling us that today too. The well is Him. He will never run dry. The main thing is Christ is asking for a deeper relationship. It goes beyond the normal surface relationship. You know the way to let the Lord know that you want a closer walk with Him? You’ll turn away from the things that you were doing wrong that cause Him to hurt. Change your life because you don’t like the bad things you do. You let this and that go, then the Lord will pursue you. You’ll be so tight with Him, that when someone sees you, they’ll see Him.

31 In the mean while his disciples prayed him, saying, Master, eat. 32 But he said unto them, I have meat to eat that ye know not of. 33 Therefore said the disciples one to another, Hath any man brought him ought to eat? 34 Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work. 35 Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest. 36 And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together. 37 And herein is that saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth. 38 I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labour: other men laboured, and ye are entered into their labours. 39 And many of the Samaritans of that city believed on him for the saying of the woman, which testified, He told me all that ever I did. 40 So when the Samaritans were come unto him, they besought him that he would tarry with them: and he abode there two days. 41 And many more believed because of his own word; 42 And said unto the woman, Now we believe, not because of thy saying: for we have heard him ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world.43 Now after two days he departed thence, and went into Galilee. 44 For Jesus himself testified, that a prophet hath no honour in his own country. 45 Then when he was come into Galilee, the Galilaeans received him, having seen all the things that he did at Jerusalem at the feast: for they also went unto the feast. 46 So Jesus came again into Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman, whose son was sick at Capernaum. 47 When he heard that Jesus was come out of Judaea into Galilee, he went unto him, and besought him that he would come down, and heal his son: for he was at the point of death. 48 Then said Jesus unto him, Except ye see signs and wonders, ye will not believe. 49 The nobleman saith unto him, Sir, come down ere my child die. 50 Jesus saith unto him, Go thy way; thy son liveth. And the man believed the word that Jesus had spoken unto him, and he went his way. 51 And as he was now going down, his servants met him, and told him, saying, Thy son liveth. 52 Then enquired he of them the hour when he began to amend. And they said unto him, Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him. 53 So the father knew that it was at the same hour, in the which Jesus said unto him, Thy son liveth: and himself believed, and his whole house. 54 This is again the second miracle that Jesus did, when he was come out of Judaea into Galilee.

John 4:31-54

We’re all constantly getting water, getting fed, and He says the harvest is ripe, but where are the labours? They’re all inside getting fed. You can’t be wounded all the time. We tend to take the Word of God for granted, because we’re under Grace and Truth, and not under the Law and we tend to think we can do whatever we want. But He says He is God and changes not. If He says we shouldn’t kill, it means we should not kill. Our relationship with Christ has to be deeper than it has been. You don’t want a surface relationship. How do you know when you have a surface relationship with Jesus? By their fruit, they’re impatient, not kind, rude. You don’t know if they’re on a walk or journey. If you’re on a journey, your trying to discover. If you’re on a walk you know where you’re going. Those on a journey don’t have a relationship with Him, but the people on a walk do because they know where they are going. If you’re on a journey you’re out to discover something, but when you’re on a walk you know where you’re going. For the Children of God, we should know what our walk is and be secure in it. The problem with the Church today is that they are on a journey; a journey of discovery of who Jesus is—what He wants from us. A lot of us don’t know where we fit in, so we’re on journey.

We should play closer attention to all that God has for us in our walk, doing what He says, when He says, how He says, what time He says, and where He says. At all times be truthful with Jesus, because He knows already, and also be truthful with others too. The Bible says to stop living to gain what is in this world and tell the truth.

25 Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another.

Ephesians 4:25

Don’t Let Another Man’s Burden Become Your Test

People have a way of uploading to you their mess. We’ve been allowing people to download mess back and jack us up. The burden of them, what they’re going through becomes our test. Allowing people to put weights upon your life, and then wanting you to deal with it. They dump and dump. Some of us make good dumping grounds. If I dump usually its off of me. But now my burden becomes your test. We have our own to deal with. So if you have some dumping to do, don’t dump it on me. I don’t want the mess you’re in to become my mess. Burden, loads, responsibilities…When you grab a hold of something from someone else, it becomes your responsibility. I don’t want someone else cross to become my burden.

Burden: Greek word is baros meaning load, abundance, authority, weight. Anything pressing on one physical thing.

I understand what you’re going through, but when you take someone else burden it makes a demand on one’s life, spirit, resources, time…most people don’t realize that. When you look at a test. What is a test? Everyone has been to school. When you take a test its a critical examination and evaluation of ones trial. How many have done an evaluation on yourself? Did you find yourself wanting? Lacking? The point is…how often do we admit our failures to ourselves? I have come to the conclusion its a daily battle to exist and a daily war to walk upright before God. Daily. The Bible tells us no one knows what tomorrow will bring. One day you’ll be all together, with inspiration of wisdom, and you think wow, I must be going somewhere. Then the next day, you are miserable and think everyone hates you. The point is that one moment we’re this way, another moment were that way, but we don’t even realize there is a day-to-day life we lead, and live walk and breath. You cannot fix things that moment. You cannot fix things that day or hour or month. Even the world can’t fix problems because it’s not them who are fixers, they are causers.

How many have ever had an evil thought? Think about it, so the negativity in the air is also because of what you thought and did. So, this world is the way it is because of us. We have allowed another man or woman’s burden to become ours and we’ve spread that disease like never before. People use the term, “I hate your guts.” No one’s ever seen your guts, how would you hate someone you’ve never had a gut to gut relationship with? You walk away feeling proud, and then when you walk away you say “why did I say that.” Now you’ve taken over someones problem. Have you ever thought about why you hate an individual? Because it didn’t meet a personal need or physical awareness, because they kept you from being fulfilled by a thing. So you traded your love for hate. How could you love one moment and hate the next? Sometimes we don’t even have to say we hate, we just live a life of hate toward that individual. How many are carrying others burdens right now? How many are in a test today? Did you create that test?

When you look at a test scenario, evaluation of yourself, a lot of times we get mad at a person because it’s expressing who we are. We’ve painted a picture of us being something different, but the truth comes out of what we really are. When our mind has told us that we are what we made ourselves out to be, then we get mad at the person calling us out. Then we inspire others to see our point of view. When we set a trap for ourselves, the Lord tells us to love everyone. But Lord I can’t love someone who treated me bad, talked about me, stabbed me in the back, called me names…sometimes we’ll reap things we’ve done from a long time ago… thought we got away with it, when the Lord says He has a time for us. Then we don’t understand and say “Lord why me? I’m the one that loves You.” As you define love and relationship in your life, what are the elements you use to define love?

How many forgive people? The sort of prayer that says “Lord I forgive them for what they’ve done and what they’re doing.” When you allow the hardship and burden of someone else to become your difficult state, then they become a detriment to yourself. You may not have said it out loud, but you may have acted like it. Its like this…you speak things into existence. Out of your mouth you condementh yourself. And that is just after you sang “I could sing of your love forever.” When you come into the house of God, I don’t want you to leave the same way you came. Most come jacked up, broken, confused, and then whats next? Did I speak about trials earlier…if you didn’t get it right the first time…you’re going to repeat it. And it doesn’t come on a time schedule. It comes when you are doing everything you like under the sun. Weigh it before you say it. Before things come out your mouth out of hatred, anger, lust, even love, make sure you weigh it against the heart and mind of God. Don’t say anything out your mouth that hasn’t been checked. The words that come out of your mouth vibrate. Everything has a vibration to it and it is stored in objects. If you take the test of someone else upon yourself when no one asks you to, then if they get an F, you get an F. Don’t get mad when the result is not positive toward you. Don’t get upset and say “Lord that wasn’t my test it was their test.” The Lord will look at you and say “were you in agreement with them or did you entertain it?” Your test is your test. So if someone is in a test, say I don’t want your test. Your test is a mess. If you aren’t able to bear it, or go through your own personal test, how will you bear it? Another man’s burden will not be mine.

Galatians 6:1-18

Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted.Bear ye one another’s burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself.But let every man prove his own work, and then shall he have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another.For every man shall bear his own burden. Let him that is taught in the word communicate unto him that teacheth in all good things. Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. 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. And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.Ye see how large a letter I have written unto you with mine own hand. As many as desire to make a fair shew in the flesh, they constrain you to be circumcised; only lest they should suffer persecution for the cross of Christ. For neither they themselves who are circumcised keep the law; but desire to have you circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh. But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world.For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature. And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.From henceforth let no man trouble me: for I bear in my body the marks of the Lord Jesus.Brethren, the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.

Don’t call someone out of their name, or say you hate their guts or say you can’t stand them. “Galatians 6:5 For every man shall bear his own burden.” “Galatians 6:2 Bear ye one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.” When it says this, it doesn’t mean bear another persons sin. Your walk is your walk. If I see another person going through, I will help, but I won’t bear it. How do you help? By praying that God’s will be done in his life, not to grab it and try to work a will, but to pray that God’s will be done. So if you take on another persons burden in another way other than prayer, it becomes your test, and it’s not what God has given you. Now, you’re bearing another’s burden through prayer because its your brother/sister, don’t get involved. We get sick, they get well and we’re still sick. Don’t hold onto some else’s burden because if they go down hill, so will you.

Jonah was given a command to go to Nineva to preach to the heathen man. The Lord said that if he preached to them, they would repent. He instead took his burden to a great fish. He said swallow me! If you do then I don’t have to say what He has to do. You’d rather be swallowed by a big fish than to do what the Lord told you to do, then you deserve everything coming to you. But the Lord didn’t let that happen. So the fish spat him out. He made a 2 weeks journey in 2 days, and did what God told him. When someone is disobedient to God, don’t be around them, run. When a grenade goes off, does it make distinctions about whom it will blow up? No it blows up everything. So if God is after someone because of their disobedience and you are associated with them, you will take the burden too. Rather you should pray that God deals with them, that God delivers them from themselves.

Why do we go through for someone else’s mess? I want to go through my own trials, because its something I didn’t get right. I don’t want you to go through for me because I won’t get the point. I won’t get it if I don’t go through because the Lord takes us through to make us, not to break us. You can’t go through what another person goes through because God is dealing with them individually. You have to realize you help people better by allowing God to take them through. God is trying to let us know He wants to make us.

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!

How to Apply the 9 Charismatic Gifts

 

This teaching was to be posted last Wednesday, December 30, 2015. However, due to the New Year, it was postponed to today, January 6, 2016.

We always must remember that these Spiritual gifts are for building, edifying, and enriching the Body of Christ. 1 Corinthians 2:12-16, 1 Corinthians 12:1-12

Its depending upon God’s will, and the Spirit of God that He gives these gifts freely to those who are the spiritual heads of the Body of Christ. Everyone in the church doesn’t need to go around healing people. It says in that spiritual gifts aren’t given to everyone. Its used for the purpose of the building up of that ministry, that church, or the Body of Christ.

How to apply these gifts? One has to remember that these gifts are not to be taken lightly to use at your own whims, but the Holy Ghost guides you and gives you unction to use that gifts. They want to use it for their own benefit, cause or price.

For instance when the Sons of Sceva tried to utilize a gift of casting out spirits, the resultant went very bad for them. The spirit answered back and said to them “Jesus I know, Paul I know; but who are ye?” Acts 19:15. For those who think they have a gift, if its being utilized out of selfishness, anger, greed, and not being led by the Holy Ghost, you are subject to 3 things happening to you

  1. Set up on by demons
  2. Cause your death
  3. God will take that gift away from you

So you always must remember to be led by the Holy Ghost, and you have to have the power of the Holy Ghost operating in your life to utilize any gift God has given you. One crucial important thing is this: you have to believe what the gift said it would do. If you can’t believe, it will not operate in your life. Before anyone believes they have a gift, they should check with their spiritual head. If you have a gift you have to be trained and taught in the Word of God. You have to stay prayed up, fast and allow the Holy Ghost to have its will and way in your life.

Its about applying these gifts, you can’t apply nothing until you know what the gift is. You can’t operate under the gift unless you have love. In other words, your heart has to be right before that gift can be utilized in you. 1 Corinthians 12:19-31, 1 Corinthians 13:1-4. You have to be faithful, the Word of God tells us to be faithful.

Understanding Spiritual Gifts Part 2

This week we will continue our study on “Understanding Spiritual Gifts.” We will move on with the 9 Charismatic Gifts.

 

9 Valuable Gifts in helping to accomplish the work of the ministry. These gifts aren’t to be used for you personally, but to be used to profit the entire body of Christ. “But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal” (1 Corinthians 12:7).

 

  1. Word of Wisdom – 1 Corinthians 12:8 “ For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom…”  Wisdom is defined as the quality or state of being wise; knowledge of what is true or right coupled with just judgement as to action; sagacity, discernment, or insight. The Word of Wisdom is in the Word of God. Some people have this knowledge given to them via the Spirit. There was a man named Johnny James, who was working on a ladder, slipped and fell, and had an impact on his head. When he came too, he was able to recite verbatim the scriptures with just the mention of a chapter and verse. He is called “the walking Bible.” His story can be found on youtube.
  2. Word of Knowledge – 1 Corinthians 12:8 “to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit…” This gift is one which gives the recipient a supernaturally inspired utterance of facts.
  3. Faith – 1 Corinthians 12:9 “…To another faith by the same Spirit…” Faith is complete trust in God. Hebrews 11:6 says that without faith it is impossible to please God. Hebrews 11:1 further describes what faith is: “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” The recipient of this gift is given a supernatural impartation of assurance in God.
  4. Gift of Healing – 1 Corinthians 12:9 “…to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit…” This gift is definitely needed for the ministry. The laying on of hands is an awesome thing to have in your life and people recover from their sickness. We don’t see this gift very often in the Church. God has given this gift to people who can handle it;  who will operate to glorify God and not themselves. Its for the edification of the body. The recipient of this gift supernaturally ministers health to the sick.
  5. Working of Miracles – 1 Corinthians 12:10 “…To another the working of miracles…” The Greek describes it as “works of power” and implies instantaneous results. Raising people from the dead, bringing peace into a violent situation; these are the workings of miracles. The word miracle is defined as an effect or extraordinary event in the physical world that surpasses all known human or natural powers and is ascribed to a supernatural cause. God has given you divine intervention to do things for people by the Word of God. To allow God to step in to heal, deliver, or speak into a life and things happen, it is awesome. Again it is not for your personal fame or edification, but for the Body of Christ. Its all about doing His will, to bring others to Christ.
  6. Prophecy – 1 Corinthians 12:10 “… to another prophecy…” 1 Thessalonians 5:20-21 says despise not prophesyings. Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. Prophecy is defined as the foretelling or prediction of what is to come. Many will “proph-e-lie,” but there aren’t many who prophecy. When a person does prophecy, they are spiritually prononucing or imparting something from God. A true prophecy is known by its coming to pass.
  7. Discerning of Spirits – 1 Corinthians 12:10 “…to another discerning of spirits…” Discerning is defined as revealing insight and understanding. When you deserning something, it is very important. You can tell what will happen to someone, or what spirit is on a person or when a spirit comes into the house that is of God or not, or further whether someone teaches the Word of God or not.
  8. Different Kinds of Tongues – 1 Corinthians 12:10 “…to another divers kinds of tongues…” The utterance in an unknown language which is interpreted as a prophecy to the body for their edification. This is distinguished from praying in tongues which is to edify ones self 1 Cor 14:14. The message of tongues to the Body of Christ is always to be interpreted by another gift. It is limited to three within a gathering 1 Cor 14:27.
  9. Interpretation of Tongues – 1 Corinthians 12:10 “..to another the interpretation of tongues…” This is the supernatural interpretation of a message in tongues into the understandable language of the hearers. It is not a “translation” but an interpretation.

Next week, we will talk about the applications of these 9 valuable gifts.
