The Importance of Love in Exposing the Enemy

"For God so love the world that he gave is only and unique Son, so that everyone who trusts in him may have eternal life, instead of being utterly destroyed. For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but rather so that through him, the world might be saved." John 3:16-17 (CJB)


On Saturday, August 12, 2017, two police air-pilots and one civilian lost their lives in the white supremacist march in Virginia. Many more were injured because they were willing to be among the hundreds of people who stood against hate and bigotry. The march reminds me of the blatant deception and evil that are hidden in the hearts of men.

Supremacy belongs to God and God alone. He is above every earthly and spiritual being. He is the LORD, King of Glory, Almighty and Powerful. He is above all else and every false god. Human Supremacy is a deep lie and a plan of Satan to unseat God from his throne in our hearts. God's very being is Love.  Hate is the very being of Satan, the evil one. Hate is like cancer. It begins with a small cell of evil in your heart and grows undetected until it becomes an obvious evil to those around you.

Examine your heart to see what really lies there. James, the half-brother of Jesus (Yeshua) told us if you say you love God, but hate your brothers and sisters the truth is not in you. Our faith alone unaccompanied by actions of love is dead. This also means you cannot love God and hate yourself. Love is given by God to you and enables you to love others, including yourself.    Self-condemnation is dangerous because you cannot truly love someone when you don't even love yourself. You cannot show true love if you cannot love who you are and how God has made you. Human supremacy is the illusion of self-condemnation. Those people hate who they are.  They find it necessary to hurt others and cast them as lower than themselves, only so they can feel better about themselves.

Also, the hearts of men can be dark and vile in the church and outside of the church. A church that allows hate, sexual immorality against children and all other gross sins is under the illusion of Satan and is being deceived by Satan to believe it is okay to hate someone, abuse someone, and blame it on God's will for the other person's life. Remember, Christ unseated Satan on the cross from his position of authority on earth. Satan can only live through the hearts of men. Hatred allows him to thrive and stay alive here on earth. Hatred will utterly destroy your soul for all eternity. I look forward to the time when the true believers of Jesus Christ, around the world, will stand up and show the world that God is Love!

Prayer: Lord rule my heart and help me to love not only myself but those around me. In Jesus' Name I pray, Amen

 For the sake of His Kingdom,

Turning Your Pain into Power

Image
  "He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore,  for the former things have passed away (R evelation 21:4 ESV)." T he journey of life has many twists and turns. There are times when a turn leads us to a place of pain. But, we have the ability to used that pain to catapult ourselves to the place of power. The loss of my younger sister was very painful. She unexpectedly died. I was hurt, cried for days, and thought my chest would burst open from the pain of her departure to be with Jesus.  Not only was she my sister, but my friend. Someone you couldn't help but love! She was loving, kind, compassionate, and caring.  I don't know a sweeter person than my sister, Janice (or JanBaby as our family referred to her).  She started singing at the age of three. You could feel the power of her love deep in your soul, down to your "bones", when she lifted her voice, and breathed ...

God Doesn't Err and Trouble Doesn't Last Always

Your life has many winding roads and complicated stops.   Jesus said, "I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world (John 16:33)." When you read the verse, your thought might be, "If Jesus has overcome the world, why does my world feels so broken?" In t he circle of life we have beginnings, endings, and everything in between.  The ebbs  and flows of life bring waters of both joy and pain. But, with God's guiding hands, it flows in a way that moves us upstream to a place of peace, blessings, rest and trust.  You may walk through the great darkness ravine, but you will get through it, because God's got you!    We are overcomers in mind, spirit and soul. Whatever you are going through, it too shall pass.  L ife may not be fair, but God is fair.  Psalm 56 , the psalmist declares to God, “ You have kept count of my tossings; put my tears in your bottle...

The Reward of Persistent Prayer

Image
    [Jeremiah 29:12-13 (CJB)]: "When you call to me and pray to me, I will listen to you. When you seek me, you will find me, provided you seek from me wholeheartedly;" Dear Ladies, I write this blog with you and the many prayers that you have prayed in mind. Luke 18:2-5] "In a certain town, there was a judge who neither feared God nor respected other people. There was also in that town a widow who kept coming to him and saying, 'Give me a judgment against the man who is trying to ruin me.' For a long time he refused; but after awhile, he said to himself, 'I don't fear God, and I don't respect other people; but because this widow keeps bothering me, I will see to it that she gets justice - otherwise, she'll keep coming and pestering me till she wears me out!"  God is not a cruel judge. When we persist in prayer, we are not pestering Him! Jesus told his disciple this parable, in order to impress on them that they   must always keep praying   a...
