Confusion, the Fertile Grounds of Subjugation which Distorts Emotions

Why is it that when we use the term  “I’m confused” in one statement, then, in the next one “well if you do this, or do that then you’ll find what you’re looking for” ? How do you expect them to get a clear understanding when you’re telling them ramblings of a confused person’s mind? The definition of confusion is: disorder, upheaval; tumult; chaos. So now that you can see, do you want someone to give you some instructions without understanding? I think not. The Bible puts it this way “The blind leading the blind, they will both fall into a ditch..” (Luke 6:39)

Let’s turn to John 8:43-47:

43 “Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word. 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. 45 And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not. 46 Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me? 47 He that is of God heareth God’s words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.”

When you talk, sing, walk (saint’s walk of life), pray, think, then everything you say and do will always have a hint of confusion in the midst of topics or comments. Then every statement that a confused person says becomes a subjugated infused statement. 

That’s why the word says in Colossians 4:5-6:

5 “Walk in wisdom toward them that are without, redeeming the time. 6 Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man.”

You may ask, why is this? Why should we not be so quick to speak and give a person the answer they want? Well, the Word says “be quick to listen and slow to speak…” (James 1:19) because you don’t know what words of subjugation you may utter out of your mouth. 

Let’s read Luke 6:45-46:

45 “A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh. 46 And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?”

You’ll know the things you are supposed to walk through and do in life as a child of God. You should be led by the Holy Ghost which leads you by the men of God who have been placed in your life. 

Let’s read James 1:19-22:

19 “Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath: 20 For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God 21 Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls. 22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.”

Also read Jeremiah 3:14-15:

14 Turn, O backsliding children, saith the Lord; for I am married unto you: and I will take you one of a city, and two of a family, and I will bring you to Zion: 15 And I will give you pastors according to mine heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding.

You can’t lean on your own understanding, be that it could lead you to lust, fighting, and all types of debauchery, and seeking teachers after your own flesh.

Lastly, let’s read James 4:1-8:

1 “From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members? 2 Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not. 3 Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts. 4 Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God. 5 Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, The spirit that dwelleth in us lusteth to envy? 6 But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble. 7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 8 Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded.”

As the true men of Yeshua Jesus, is not to impress, but to educate and bring clarity to your soul, plus your life. In my conclusion, every life on earth has a purpose and a mission.

Thank you.

Breaking of the Assimilation of the World’s Subjugation in a Christian Mind

In this life we’re only given three choices to make:

  1. To live or to die
  2. Freedom or bondage
  3. Having free will to choose the truth of a lie

So answer me this: why is it that, while we have these choices in our short span of existence we always choose to be bound and die? Well, lets take a deeper look at this dilemma. First let’s take a look at three major causes of this dilemma:

A. Lust
B. Desire
C. Disobedience

Take a closer look at letter A, Lust. When it comes to lust, all of us at one time have had a battle with this old friend, and I use this term very loosely, due to the fact that in one situation or another, it has lead us down a very slippery slope where we gave lust our undivided attention and our obedience without question. We have done almost every imaginable thing lust has showed us.

1 Corinthians 10:6-13
6 Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted. 7 Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play. 8 Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand. 9 Neither let us tempt Christ,
as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents. 10 Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer. 11 Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come. 12 Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall. 13 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.

Other scriptures associated with this are James 1:14-15, Galatians 5:16-21.

Now let’s look at letter B, Desire. Most of us have some form of desire whether in our souls or our bodies that has lead us to either do unscrupulous things or have some unscrupulous ways, just to attain a desire, born of the flesh.

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.

Now the last letter. D is disobedience. This is one of the profound topics throughout the whole Bible, and is the number one failure of man and woman. Going back to the beginning in the garden of Eden where woman was told what not to do and she did and man did no better, following
her into disobedience resulting in both, as kids, being kicked out of the garden. Even to this day, we walk in disobedience and carry others with us.

Ephesians 2:2-3
2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: 3 Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.

Roman 5:19 says, “For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.”

In my conclusion, Colossians 1:23-28
23 If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister; 24 Who now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up that which is behind of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body’s sake, which is the church: 25 Whereof I am made a minister, according to the dispensation of God which is given to me for you, to fulfil the word of God; 26 Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints: 27 To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory: 28 Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus:

Lastly read Roman 12:2-3 which says, “And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.”

For additional reading, look at Philippians 2, Mark 8:35-37, and Roman 12:2.

Shall We Continue in the Confusion of Our Flesh While Wearing the Blindfold of Sin?

All of us at one time or another have walked into another persons mess in life, only to whine up being involved. Or we have walked into a persons problematic life, only being stuck in their mess, maybe reaping the punishment of somebody’s else’s sin, either by emotional attachment to
that person or the revenge for that person or their cause. How many of you have been placed in a situation and “a side” had already had been chosen for you? Picture this: you walked into a deal that you thought was the right thing to do; it sounded and felt good and others were involved. So you leapt before you looked.

Proverbs 4:7 says, “Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.”

Proverbs 3:5-7 also tells us, “Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil.

In this process of life, there are four things to weigh before making a move in any situation in life:

  1. Weighting the importance of it. “Purpose”
  2. Is there a need of it “Understanding”
  3. What will be the cost physically, mentally and spiritually “The impact”
  4. Seek advice “Pray about it”

Know this, wisdom, understanding, humility and being lead by the teaching of the Bible is not subjugation, but is the mind of Jesus and is how humanity should be.

Subjugation means: the action of bringing someone or something under domination or control.

Examples of subjugation can be found in witchcraft, social media, medical commercials and high pressure salesmen. In life, one can not base their life walk on just what they know or how they feel. Most of us have not had the opportunity of not being free from subjugation.

Proverbs 21:2 says, ” Every way of a man is right in his own eyes: but the LORD pondereth the hearts.” Further, Proverbs 16:25 says, “There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.”

In my conclusion read Hebrews 10:22-27
22 Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water. 23 Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;) 24 And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: 25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves
together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching. 26 For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, 27 But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.

Also read Romans 6: 1-23
1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?2 God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? 3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? 4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. 5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the
likeness of his resurrection: 6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. 7 For he that is dead is freed from sin. 8 Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him: 9 Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him. 10 For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God. 11 Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord. 12 Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof. 13 Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God. 14 For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace. 15 What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid. 16 Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness? 17 But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you. 18 Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness. 19 I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh: for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness. 20 For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness. 21 What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things is death. 22 But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life. 23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Selah. In Jesus name it is So!
