The lack of knowledge and the level of spiritual deficiency in my hometown continues to astound me. The following text is a perfect example. Matthew 18:10 (KJV) "Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven." Jesus was not referring children in the previous verse, He was speaking about His loyal followers; those who truly believe in Him and love Him, with the awe inspired innocence of a child. His disciples,' whom He calls, angels are always before the LORD. Being taught to hate, children can be just as hateful as anyone else. Does God love children? Of course He does. God loves all people. But that by no means...

```markdown Before I get into the core message of this entry, I must share the following incident. A while back someone, meaning well I'm sure, offered up the potter and the clay, as a means of "correcting me in my ministry." He said to me, in his angry, argumentative, Baptist preacher voice, "God told ###, '### I'll put you back on the potter’s wheel.'" This was a means to shift the blame, for my situation, from man to God. BUT GOD, knows who's truly to blame: Isaiah 66:5 (AMP) Hear the word of the Lord, you who tremble at His word: Your brethren who hate you, who cast you out for My name 's sake, have said, Let the Lord be glorified, that we may see your joy! But it is they who shall be put to shame. Though I attempted to correct...

Glorious Sabbath Day People of God: 1 Chronicles 16 (NLT) ²⁸ O nations of the world, recognize the LORD, recognize that the LORD is glorious and strong. ²⁹ Give to the LORD the glory He deserves! Bring your offering and come into His presence. Worship the LORD in all His holy splendor. ³⁰ Let all the earth tremble before Him. The world stands firm and cannot be shaken. ³¹ Let the heavens be glad, and the earth rejoice! Tell all the nations, “The LORD reigns!” God is worthy to be honored. Amen

```markdown Isaiah 30:8 (NIV) Go now, write it on a tablet for them, inscribe it on a scroll, that for the days to come it may be an everlasting witness. Many people feel that I don't need to respond to every accusation. Trust me, I don't. Because man's accusations against me are so very multiplied; there would never be enough time. However, for the purposes of correction and reproof, I address issues as led by the Holy Spirit. Hosea 4:6 (NIV) "My people are destroyed from lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I also reject you as My priests; because you have ignored the law of your God, I also will ignore your children." Yesterday, I faced some pretty harsh backlash because of the statement I wrote about "getting...

We know that God's people are His houses, even our very bodies are His temples. Revelation 3:20 (MSG) "Look at me. I stand at the door. I knock. If you hear me call and open the door, I'll come right in and sit down to supper with you." Yet, even unto a city He comes knocking. The same stipulations regarding our earthly parents, resonates all the more in the relationship between our God ( our Heavenly Father) and the cities (His earthly daughters). A city must know her place: God is the Father (parent) and the city is (the child). The child must honor the parent. For it is in that order of things that the first commandment with a promise is manifested even unto a city. Yet, God speaks to a city, even a nation, saying... Isaiah 43...

Nothing Can Separate You From God’s Love! Romans 8:38-39: For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels, nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Prayer Focus: God, I ask You in Jesus’ name teach me and show me how to accept, embrace, abide, and rest in Your love for me in every season of my life and in every situation that I go through (positive or negative). God don’t let me listen to the lies of Satan. But help me keep my focus on You, trust You, and rest in Your love. God help me to always remember how much You love me. "You would rather have Your Son...

You will know them (prophets) by their fruit (characteristics): A good tree (true prophet) produces good fruit (spirituality - operates in the will of God). A bad tree (false prophet) produces bad fruit (carnality - caters to the will of man). CHARACTERISTICS Bad Fruit: Greed, deception, popularity, immorality, pride, seek followers for themselves. God’s Word is twisted to justify injustice and wrongdoing. The most significant characteristic of a false prophet is that they are liars. Hence, "false prophet." These behaviors define them, making them false prophets by Jesus’ standards. When you heed the instructions of a false prophet, you only honor them. Good Fruit: Devoted to God, honesty, integrity, loyal in carrying out...

Walking after the flesh, simply put, is to prioritize man's (natural) desires over God’s (Spiritual) will. To prioritize anything over God is idolatry. I've said before many times: GOD FIRST I'm not forcing my opinion on anyone. I'm relaying the Word of God to those who have ears to hear. Just because you invoke your "God given free will," in choosing not to believe, doesn’t keep God from being whom He created Himself to be: "I AM, THAT I AM." When you sincerely put God first, not just in performance or manipulation (God-in-the-box, or Santa God) to get what you want, but because He is worthy to be prioritized, He will simply add to you the desires of your heart. He keeps His promises. Romans 8 (AMP) ¹Therefore, [there is] now no...

I have been living in hell for so long that I don't know who I am anymore. I have been tormented night and day for over 9 years from my upstairs neighbor. Why is God making me go through this. Depressed, scared, angry, and just about hopeless. Why can't He make it stop? Why am I going through this? What am I supposed to do?

Speaking of that name. Matthew 10:41 (NKJV) He who receives a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet's reward. And he who receives a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive a righteous man's reward. Again, it's not Paul’s name. Not your name, Not my name. Not even ### or ###'s name. Then in whose name? It is in Jesus's name that we are to receive a prophet. He knows the value of His name. It's all about Him
