Power To Live The Abundant Life

It is NOT “I won’t,” or “Maybe I will,” or “Maybe I won’t!” God is absolute! When He speaks, it is the truth and it is the way it is! He is NOT a “maybe” or wishy washy God! You can count on Him every time all the time, everywhere, and in all circumstances!

People who doubt God are doubleminded and twist God’s Word and distort the truth. They wrest and twist God’s Word to their own destruction. They are the ones who say that God might answer if He feels like it, or if the mood strikes!
Then they load it up with a mess of unbelief saying that God is permitting sickness and oppression to teach you precious lessons! YUK! WHAT KIND OF PIG SLOP IS THAT? When people believe those lies it sets them up to be knocked down at every turn and NEVER have answers to prayer or be able to overcome! That ungodly mess needs to be purged out of your spirit and mind!

So, what does the Word of God say?

The first “I WILL” I want to speak of is Isaiah 41:10: Fear not; for I am with you: be not discouraged for I AM your God:  I WILL strengthen you, yes I will help you; yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness.  All that were incensed against you will be ashamed and confounded; they shall be as nothing; and those that strive against you will perish. You will seek them and shall not find them. Even those that contend with you and them that war against you shall be as nothing….(a big fat 0..) for I the Lord your God WILL HOLD your right hand, saying to you, fear not I WILL help you! 

When the Lord helps you, you have been helped!   

 Nothing can stop God!  Nothing can stop Him from helping you as you fear not, but only believe, for all things are possible to those who believe!  Hallelujah! It is NOT Maybe He will help, but:  I WILL HELP YOU! 

Matthew 11:28 says: “Come to me all you who labor and are heavy laden and I WILL give you rest. Take my yoke  upon you and learn of me, for I am meek and lowly in heart and you shall find rest for your souls.”

Don’t run from God because of your problems, run to Him and take His yoke upon you, His will, and you shall find rest for your souls! God means everything He says and everything He promises us and Jesus said He would be with you even to the end of the world!

Psalm 50:14,15: Offer to God Thanksgiving and pay your vows to the Most High, and call upon me in the day of trouble, and I WILL deliver you! God will deliver you out of all trouble for He said that the just shall come out of trouble!  As you do what God said and thank Him and be a doer of the Word, not a hearer only, and call on Him in the day of trouble and HE WILL deliver you!

When Jesus is with us, all He is and all He has will work for and in you!  He said not to fear for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom. (Luke 12:32-34). It pleases God to give you the kingdom. The kingdom of God is righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost!  When demons are cast out by the Spirit of God, no doubt the kingdom of God has come to you! Deliverance removes all the doubt!

Those who doubt deliverance think they know all there is to know, and say that you never know what God will do, like it’s a hit or miss deal!  Whereas those who move in the Holy Spirit cast the demons out. (NO DOUBT the kingdom of God has come to you!) 

God lets us know from His Word what He will do!  His Word is His will!  One Word we should put into practice immediately is Psalm 55:22: “Cast your burden on the Lord and HE WILL sustain you, He will NEVER permit the righteous to be moved!”  As you cast your burden on the Lord He WILL sustain you!  You must do your part to open the door,  allowing God to do what He said He would do!  You tie God’s hands when you carry the burdens He said to cast on Him!  Let God arise and His enemies be scattered!

Now some powerful I WILL’S from God!  

Isaiah 45:2 ” I WILL go before you and make the crooked places straight!  I WILL break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut asunder the bars of iron. God said I WILL go before you!  See God going before you! Whatever needs to be put out of the way is put out of the way by the Spirit of God! The path is made straight!  Whatever the devil has tried to lock up and close up is broken to pieces and cut asunder!

God gave you a free will and he will not violate it!  You must want what God has and put your will with His will, His Word, and choose His will to have it come to life in your life!  He will NOT force anything on you!  In the Old Testament God said:  “I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing; choose!”

So God’s will for us is ABUNDANT LIFE, but to have it you must put your will there and choose abundant life to have it!  It will not be forced on you, and if you don’t choose abundant life then you are choosing death, and will have death working in you!  Why are so many sick and oppressed?  In some way a door was open to let spirits of death work in people’s lives!  False beliefs and unbelief and false doctrines, including of the false doctrine of permissive will allow spirits of darkness to oppress!

Psalm110:3 “Your people shall be willing IN the day of your power..!”  

Note that God distinguishes His people as those who are willing “in” the day of His power!  Those who say yes to the power of God in the day of His power are those who are willing!  Rivers of living water flow out of their innermost being!  

God said He is not willing that any should perish, but that all would have everlasting life!  He does not want you to lose out, but wills that you have everlasting life!  Jesus took our sins and sickness and by His stripes we were healed!  Healing is the will of God, but we must want it, choose it, claim it, possess it!

I press toward the mark of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus!  If there was nothing to press through why did the apostle have to press toward the mark of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus?!  If there was no obstacles, no resistance, no enemy to fight, why did God say to submit yourself to God and resist the devil and he will flee from you!  God said to resist the devil steadfast in the faith putting constant pressure against the enemy!  1 Timothy says to fight the good fight of faith laying hold of eternal life!  Some act as if there is nothing to fight!  They never fight anything, just lay down and get steam rolled!  Death rules in their lives!  They have become “ribbon christians,” steamrolled flat by the enemy!  They don’t use the weapons of our warfare because they don’t do warfare!  The weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds!  2 Corinthians 10:4,5. Jesus conquered it all and told us to bind and loose and speak to mountains to be removed by our faith!  God said for us to be praying with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit!

God says to ask and you will receive, seek and you will find, knock and it will be opened to you!  He wants you to exercise your will!  Draw close to God and He will draw close to you!  God says to pray for His will to be done in earth as it is in heaven!  God’s will brings blessing, healing, deliverance, prosperity, peace and JOY!  Some are waiting for God, waiting for God, and do without, for God is waiting for them to be willing in the day of His power!  In Matthew 11:28 Jesus said: “Come to me all you that labor and are heavy laden and I WILL give you rest!”  Your part is action: Coming to Jesus!  His part is: “I WILL give you rest!”

God already said: “I WILL,” so now as you use your will and put it with God’s will you will overcome all the evil, be healed and delivered, receive answers to prayers, be filled with peace and joy, and live a life of perpetual victory and overcoming, and a life of perpetual and constant praise!  Hallelujah to Jesus!  Jesus Christ is Lord!

1 Peter 5 says: “Humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God that He may exalt you in due time:  Casting all your care upon Him; for He cares for you.  Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion walks about, seeking whom he may devour:  Whom resist steadfast in the faith!”

James 4:10 

Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord and he WILL lift you up.

II Chronicles 7:14 

If my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and WILL forgive their sin and heal their land.”

LOOK UP!  Look to Jesus, who is the author and finisher of our faith!  HE will perfect that which concerns me!  

There is a song that says : “Learning to lean, learning to lean;  I’m learning to lean on Jesus!  Finding more power than I ever dreamed, I’m learning to lean on Jesus!”

It can “seem” like it’s over and that there is no end in sight to the problems or oppression you have faced, but just because it “seems”that way does NOT make it true!  God already said that there is a way that “seems” right to a man, but the end thereof are the “ways of death!”

We must seek Jesus and persist until we have revelation knowledge of the truth from God!  Then, God says:  “Stretch out the rod the SEA WILL ROLL BACK AND TWO WALLS OF WATER WILL STAND UP, and you will walk over on dry ground!  When the enemy pursues you, God will tell you to stretch out the rod again and the sea will come crashing down on the heads of all your enemies!  Then, you will sing and shout and dance about, and ohhhhhh we’ll have a time!  HALLELUJAH TO JESUS!!!  

Don’t miss the time of your visitation!  Jesus looked over Jerusalem and wept, and said: “Oh, Jerusalem, Jerusalem how often would I have gathered you as a mother hen gathers her chicks, but you would not!”  In Luke 19:44  Jesus said: “If you had known, even you, at least in this your day the things which belong to your peace!  But now they are hidden from your eyes.  For the days shall come on you, that your enemies shall cast a trench about you, and compass you round, and keep you in on every side, you shall lay you even with the ground, and your children within you; and they shall not leave in you one stone on another; because you KNEW NOT THE TIME OF YOUR VISITATION.”   How important it is to KNOW the time of your visitation!  He came to His own and His own received Him not!  Now, Jesus has come to you, right now, and it IS the TIME OF YOUR VISITATION!

Someday faith is not faith!  “Someday we will have miracles!  Someday we will have healing!  Someday we will have deliverance!  Someday we will have answers to prayer!”  This is nothing more than procrastination by spirits of unbelief in the flesh speaking in the minds of religious people who are procrastinating in the time of our visitation; right in the time of the greatest outpouring of the Holy Spirit ever!  This is the end time! These are those who falsely say to accept everything, and that God permits all the evil, etc.  The devil wants you to have the attitude that “someday” you will develop a prayer life, and praise the Lord, etc.  “Someday” NEVER comes!  “Someday” is the devil’s way to make it “NEVER DAY!”

Now then, faith IS the substance of things HOPED for, the evidence of things NOT SEEN!  With God it is always NOW!  “Today is the DAY OF SALVATION,” 2 Corinthians 6:1.  

Hebrews says that today is the day of salvation: if you will hear HIs voice, don’t harden your hearts as in the day of provocation when they tempted God!   TODAY is the DAY OF REVIVAL!  Now your sons and daughters will prophesy, old men will dream dreams, and young men will see visions!  Now is the outpouring of the Holy Spirit on ALL flesh!  

Why are you going by what it “seems” like? Because it seems like all is lost and hopeless?  It can seem that way…but GOD!  

“Then came Jesus!”  

Jesus is NOT limited by the mess the world is in or the confusion!  He doesn’t have “some” power… JESUS IS ALL POWERFUL…ALL POWER IN HEAVEN AND IN EARTH, AND ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE TO THOSE WHO BELIEVE!  HALLELUJAH!  GLORY TO GOD!  PRAISE YOU JESUS!   

Receive what you need from Jesus RIGHT NOW…IT’S YOURS!  RECEIVE YOUR MIRACLE YOU HAVE NEEDED FOR SO LONG! 

STOP giving up before you get the answer!

STOP listening to the lies that are telling you it will be “someday,” but not now ,because of this, that, and the other thing!

Just ADAMANTLY REFUSE to give up or entertain even the thought of giving up!  There is HOPE IN GOD!  “CHRIST IN YOU THE HOPE OF GLORY!” This IS the time of your visitation… the time is NOW, so KNOW it, and receive HIM!  

Jesus doesn’t lose!  He overcame it ALL by the power of the Holy Spirit!  He overcame the world, the flesh, and the devil!  He handed you the keys of the kingdom!  Those keys unlock EVERY BLESSING there is and turns it loose in your life!  The keys of the kingdom are the promises of God!  They unlock all the blessings the devil tries to keep locked up and hidden from you!  Keep TURNING THOSE KEYS!  THEY OPEN UP ALL THE DOORS OF BLESSING!

The devil has lied to some and told you that you would never amount to anything, but just be a failure!  REFUSE those lies from the pit of hell!  STEP on those lies!  Thank Jesus for success!  You ARE an OVERCOMER through Jesus, and by the power of the Holy Spirit!  Thank God for success!  You are an overcomer by faith!  Let off the pressure, praise God and Let God Arise and His enemies be scattered!  Put the pressure on the devil by speaking the Word of God by faith, and bind all wicked spirits!  If you abide in Jesus and His words abide in you, you will ask what you will and it will be done to you!  Ask and you will receive, seek and you will find, knock and it will be opened to you!  My God shall supply all your need by His riches in glory!  ALL your need!

NEVER, EVER, EVER, EVER, EVER give up hope!  There is hope in God!  Now abides FAITH, HOPE, AND LOVE!

Cast out what it “seems” like in the natural world and LOOK UP; LOOK TO JESUS!  THERE IS HOPE FOR YOU IN GOD!  TAKE HOLD OF THAT HOPE NOW!

There was a woman who was up against it! She had an issue of blood for 12 years and was bleeding to death. She had gone to many physicians and spent all the money she had! It SEEMED like she was just going to die with no options left. But then she heard of Jesus! Then came Jesus! With all the strength she had, she pressed through the crowd surrounding Him for she said: “If I can just touch the hem of His garment I shall be made whole!” As she reached out and touched the hem of His garment the power of God went through her like a bolt of lightning! She was healed instantly. Jesus stopped and asked who touched Him. The disciples remarked how there was a crowd all around Him, so what did He mean by: “Who touched me?!” He perceived virtue had gone out of Him! She fell at His feet and said it was her! He told her that her faith had made her whole and to go in peace. 

Because she refused to go by what it “seemed” like, and refused to give up even though it seemed hopeless, and acted in faith, she was made whole as the fountain of blood dried up! HALLELUJAH!!! No matter what it is, press on and touch Jesus by faith and you will be made whole, and the deliverance and answers you need will be yours! Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever! What He did for one, He will do for others for He is no respecter of persons!

ROMANS 15:13 “MAY THE GOD OF HOPE FILL YOU WITH ALL JOY AND PEACE IN BELIEVING, SO THAT BY THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT YOU MAY ABOUND IN HOPE!”

In this life we face many things that we need the power of the Holy Spirit so we can overcome it ALL!

There are different tactics the devil uses to try to bring us down, and one of them is to bring many things against us all at the same time to make us feel overwhelmed, and vexed to make us feel hopeless and to give up! The demons try to make you think it is just your own thoughts when really it is demons speaking those negative, lying thoughts of fear and unbelief, and confusion!

God warns us about those who have made shipwreck of their lives by putting away faith and a good conscience! (1Timothy 1:19)

As we sail on life’s sea there are storms that arise with fierce winds that try to toss the ship back and forth and cause shipwreck! What we do, and don’t do at these times is so very important!

The disciples were in a ship on the sea, and a violent storm with fierce winds came. Jesus saw from land what was going on and started walking to them on the sea! Yes, by the power of the Holy Spirit He had power over nature! He was not walking on the water to prove a point, but to help the disciples and deliver them! Jesus always stands for us as an EVER PRESENT help in the time of trouble! He comes to us to deliver! They saw Him and thought they saw a spirit and got scared. Jesus said: “Fear not, it is I!” So Peter said to Him that if it was Him to have him come to Him! Jesus said to come! Peter stepped out of the boat by faith and began walking on the water to Jesus! Peter began to look at the waves instead of Jesus, and immediately began to sink! Immediately he cried out for Jesus to help him, and Jesus grabbed him by the hand and lifted him up. If ever you are sinking after “wave watching” call for help immediately and Jesus will lift you up! Don’t ever give up, and don’t go down, but call for help!

The Word says what we are to do is ..”looking to Jesus who is the author and finisher of our faith!” Looking is continual, not just once!
We look to Jesus by faith! Then the waves cannot affect us for our faith is in Jesus, and not in the waves or the storm! Jesus is the author and the FINISHER of our faith! The storm will NOT be able to cause you shipwreck with Jesus in the boat and your faith solid in HIM! When Jesus lifted Peter up they went into the boat and the storm instantly ceased and they were instantly at shore! The storm could NOT destroy them; could NOT cause shipwreck! Hallelujah!

Stop being a “wave watcher” for there is nothing good that ever comes out of being a wave watcher, only fear, doubt, and wavering that leads to shipwreck! Keep looking to Jesus! “Come to Jesus all you who are heavy laden and HE WILL give you rest! Hebrews 4:3 Those that believe enter into rest! In His rest is all His provision, all that God has promised, all He has said!

Now, let’s drop in on Lazarus! Lazarus became sick, and Jesus was going to Him to heal him.

Jesus stayed where he was 2 days after He heard Lazarus was sick. He said that the sickness was not to death, but would be to the glory of God, meaning Lazarus would be healed! Meanwhile Lazarus died, and they came to tell Jesus He was too late, but Jesus is never too late , but when people forget what Jesus said they believe in the circumstance in the natural instead of the power of the Spirit of God!
When Jesus got there He said to roll away the stone from the tomb! Again, those with doubt said, “but by now his dead body stinks!” Some have more faith in death and stink than they do Jesus! Jesus groaned! He said: “DID NOT I SAY TO YOU THAT “IF” YOU WOULD BELIEVE YOU WOULD SEE THE GLORY OF GOD?!”
They rolled away the stone from the tomb, and Jesus, with a LOUD voice shouted: “LAZARUS COME FORTH!” He who was dead 4 days come out of the tomb wrapped in grave clothes!
The sickness was not to death, but the glory of God manifested as Lazarus was raised from the dead!
The doubters were looking at the natural! They were looking at sickness, death, buried and NOT at HE WHO IS THE RESURRECTION AND THE LIFE!
Jesus said to loose him and let him go! HALLELUJAH! There is hope in your end! Looking at the eternal, and NOT at the temporal!

He who conqured death, hell and the grave and ROSE TRIUMPHANT ever lives to make intercession for us!

Jesus still has His arms outstretched to you and me saying: “COME TO ME ALL YOU WHO LABOR AND ARE HEAVY LADEN, AND I WILL GIVE YOU REST!”

Jesus calls you by name to come out of the tomb of fear, depression, death, sickness, backsliding, mental oppression, vexation, trouble, and ALL that has come against you to a new life in Jesus! Put your name in there: ………..COME FORTH! Then be loosed from those grave clothes, so that nothing from the past would try to hang on you!!! BE LOOSED!

No power can hold you down when you are LOOKING TO JESUS, who is the author and finisher of our FAITH! He that started a good work in
you will perform it til the day of Christ! Consider Him who endured such contradiction of sinners against Him lest you be wearied and faint in your minds. The way to NOT be worn out by the cares of this life is to consider Jesus, keep looking to Him, keeping your mind STAYED on Him!

Consider Him for He endured it all for you and hands you the keys of the kingdom that open every door of blessing there is according to all the promises of God that are YES AND AMEN!

Come out of that death spirit and the grave it has dug for you in Jesus name! Morbidity is done! You will not live in spiritual death any longer! Jesus said : “I have come that you might have life and have it MORE ABUNDANTLY!”ABUNDANCE OF LIFE! The law of the Spirit of Life has made me free from the law of sin and death!
When we believe, we enter into God’s rest! Hebrews 4. Believe is an action verb. Not just the hearers of the Word are blessed, but the doers of the Word. When He says to praise Him at all times, then those who believe praise Him at all times! When He says that all things are possible to those who believe then DO NOT limit God, and GO for ALL things are possible! ALL covers it ALL!

Whatever you are facing as you believe God, it will turn around for the glory of God!

It doesn’t matter how hopeless it seems! You don’t have to figure it all out, but “ONLY BELIEVE!” GOD WILL BRING HIS WORD TO PASS! He will hasten His Word to perform it!

In the natural there was no way to bring back Lazarus! He was dead for 4 days, but Jesus had said this sickness was not to death and that the glory of God would manifest! The power of that Word brought Lazarus out of the tomb grave clothes and all! ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE TO THOSE WHO BELIEVE!

People are being delivered right now from all kinds of mental oppression! Mental fatigue goes, mental torment goes, heavy burdens, twisted thoughts, demons of looking back go out now! There is deliverance from spirits of confusion that had you going in endless circles, round and round and never getting where needed to go! FREE IN JESUS NAME! The crushing load spirits Go now! The spirits of obsession with the temporal, natural circumstance…the waves…GOING, NOW!

Praise God with all your heart because your deliverance is now! Thank you Jesus! Glory to God! Hallelujah to Jesus!
Every rotten demon of death GO OUT NOW IN THE NAME OF JESUS from every source!

Thank you Jesus for setting your people COMPLETELY FREE from all death!

DID NOT I SAY TO YOU THAT “IF” YOU WOULD BELIEVE YOU WOULD SEE THE GLORY OF GOD?!

One miracle can change your life forever!  Never underestimate the power of one miracle from God!  The power of God is limitless!  

All was darkness, and He spoke a word, and said: “LIGHT BE!”  The sun and moon were created and millions and billions of stars came!!!  ALL from one word, one word:  “LIGHT BE!”  

The sun that would sustain life here on earth, make all grow that grows, give light so we could see during the day to do all we need to do, and live here on earth!  He set the earth spinning on an axis so we could have the seasons…days, months, years in time!

Then one day, we who believe will hear the sound of a heavenly trumpet, and the words:  “COME UP HERE,” and we who remain and believe will be changed in a twinkling of an eye, a moment of time, and will have a heavenly body, an incorruptible body, to go to heaven with!  So, the awesome power of one spoken Word of God will change your life forever as you believe and receive it and say it!

Here is a Word of God:  “By His stripes you were healed!”  WOOSH… THE WIND OF THE HOLY SPIRIT BLOWS on that word and drives every demon of sickness and disease and infirmity right on OUT of your body NOW!  HALLELUJAH!  PRAISE JESUS FOR HEALING EVERY sickness and disease!

      No more cancer

      No more arthritis

      No more diverticulitis

      No more curvature of the spine

      No more pain!

Here is another word: “He restores my soul,” and WHOOSH…all your hurt feelings, emotions, and mind are healed and restored to normal, and peace!  

     No more brokenheartedness

     No more mental fatigue

     No more mental derision

     No more mental pain or anguish

     No more sin-recall demons…

HE RESTORES MY SOUL!

A Word of God that comforts you forever:  “THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD, I SHALL NOT WANT!”  He guides and leads us so we will always know the way to go, always, and get there by His grace!  He protects the sheep of His pasture!  As David did, so does the Lord for when the lion and bear came to get the sheep, David killed them and delivered the sheep from the jaws of death!  Jesus is my deliverer!

We need to look at just how GREAT GOD IS!  He is GREATER than ALL!  His Greatness is unsearchable!  GREATER IS HE THAT IS IN US THAN he that is in the world! GREATER!  “THEN SINGS MY SOUL, HOW GREAT YOU ARE!”  

GOD IS GREATER than all the mess in this world!  Greater than all the demons in the world!  Greater than all the disease and sickness that exists!  Greater than your awful past, sin, and torment!  Greater than all mental bondage!  Greater than all that is going on in your country!  GREATER IS HE!  Say that a bunch of times and you will shout praises to the King of Kings and Lord of Lords!  God will restore all the years that have been eaten away… all the years!  

In our lives, many times there were years where we were bound by demons and wasted years living under the oppression of the devil and were robbed, cursed, and living away from Jesus in sin.

Then came Jesus!  All was made new!  Then demons began reminding us of wasted years!  God says all is forgiven and that the blood of Jesus cleanses us from ALL unrighteousness, and that HE WILL RESTORE ALL THE YEARS THAT HAVE BEEN eaten away! 

Thank you Jesus for touching each person now by the power of your Spirit making them whole, releasing them from all the demons of the past into the NEW LIFE IN THE POWER OF THE SPIRIT!  PRAISE YOU LORD JESUS, FOR ALL WE NEED IS A MIRACLE; ALL WE NEED IS “YOU!”

Today is the day of salvation; today if you will hear His voice don’t harden your heart as in the provocation…!

SALVATION=saved, healed, delivered, divine health, preservation, filled with the Spirit, the joy of the Lord, peace, welfare, and ALL you need! Jesus purchased your salvation when He shed His blood, died on the cross, and rose from the dead the third day! So, it is all yours as you believe! Say it now, say it out loud: “SALVATION IS MINE…ALL OF IT NOW, TODAY, AND I BELIEVE AND RECEIVE IT NOW! JESUS CHRIST IS LORD AND ALL MUST BOW TO HIM AND THE POWER OF HIS NAME! 

Every demon of death is bound and must leave you now and the whole entourage of demons connected to it! All sorts of sickness, oppression, vexation, torment, fear, discouragement are under my feet…GO OUT NOW AND NEVER COME BACK, IN JESUS MIGHTY NAME!!

HALLELUJAH TO JESUS FOREVER AND EVER! PRAISE THE NAME OF JESUS! GLORY TO GOD!

Raise your hands and praise Him for making you whole! Praise Him and thank Him that THIS IS THE DAY OF SALVATION, THE DAY OF MIRACLES!!!

BE LOOSED AND MADE WHOLE!!!

In this messed up world of confusion, anxiety, stress and woe we need to find the place of perfect peace, deliverance from all evil, and a life of victory over it ALL!

Jesus is the “Prince of Peace!”  We need to praise Jesus every day for as we exalt Him He will live big in us, Christ in you, the hope of glory!  When you praise the Lord your heart and mind are on Him, and there is NO stress in Him, only PEACE that passes all understanding!

Jesus was not lost, but we were lost!  You did not find Him, but He did find you!  When you are lost you cannot find your way!  When lost you do not know Him or His presence, so there is no true joy in your life for in His “presence” is fulness of joy!  When lost there are no answers to prayers for without Jesus you don’t have any faith at all!  Since the joy of the Lord is our strength then without joy we are weak and vulnerable to the fiery darts of the devil!  Ouch!  That is a very bad position to be in!  Then the steam roller of doubt, unbelief and fear rolls right over you, and sickness, trouble, vexation, stress and confusion fill your life….LOST…without God or His Son!

“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever would believe on Him would not perish, but have life everlasting!”  (John 3:16)

Hallelujah!  Jesus Christ IS LORD!

When you realized that Jesus bore your sin, died for you on  the cross, and rose again from the dead, and confessed Jesus is Lord, you went from lost to FOUND!  Jesus found you and you were saved, born again, born of the Spirit to new life by the resurrection power of God!

Have you noticed that man has a way of messing things up when he puts “his” ideas and man made doctrines mixed in with the Word of God?  Then denominations are created that denominated the Word and a little leaven (lies, false doctrine) leavens the whole lump!  

So, here you are just being “found,” but you listen to the false doctrines and start to “wander” in the wilderness of unbelief and lies!  Unbelief caused God’s people to wander in the wilderness 40 years until they died in their unbelief.  The promised land flowing with milk and honey and all they needed in the provision of God was right there, but they “looked” at the “giants”….the problems, and high walled cities instead of the Word and promises.of God and refused to believe God, and therefore lost out and wandered here and there and went in circles in their fear and doubt!  

When you wander it is a feeling of hopelessness and dread that drives you to your wits end!  The world’s confusion, stress, and sin burdens you and weighs you down instead of being led by the Spirit of God, and peace!

When you wander in the wilderness first here then there, never quite knowing “where” is “the spot to be!”  First in the “church of death,” then the “1st church of the Frigidaire,” with a polar bear in the pulpit, and icebergs in the pews! LOL!

They hate people whenever they feel like it and are led by emotion, and have no faith!  They cannot cast out demons for they don’t believe they are there, and do NOT have the power to cast anything out!  They deny the power of God, say “no” to the Holy Spirit and the only way to cast out demons is by the power of the Holy Spirit!  

Wanderers are wishy washy, up and down and never unmoveable or steadfast in faith!

Joshua and Caleb were the only 2 out of the whole group that said in faith:  ” Let us go up AT ONCE and possess the land for the enemies are bread for us!” They were the only 2 out of the original group that did get to go into the promised land, drive out the enemies, and possess their inheritance!  They were not wanderers for they moved in faith on the promises of God every day!

God says to run the race with patience, endurance, steadfastness, NOT in un-patience.. anxiety!  Run to WIN laying aside the sin and weight that does so easily beset us!  Sometimes we are carrying other’s lies, false doctrines, heavy burdens they try to hang on us, and it weighs us down, and we stop living as we should in faith and the power of God!

Cast all your cares on Jesus for HE CARES for you, and will SUSTAIN YOU!  

How are we going to finish the race without looking ahead?  The BEST is yet to come!  The path of the just is as the shining light that shines more and MORE to the perfect day!!!

Complaining weighs us down! Murmuring weighs you down!

“Excusing yourself or accusing one another weighs you down where you say:  “I can’t come to God’s feast because of this, or that, or because of what others are doing!”  God talks of a feast where when invited people begin to excuse or accuse and refuse to come to the Feast!  

Consider Him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself lest you be “wearied” (weariness of the flesh and spirit), and faint in your minds! Hebrews 12:3. (Galatians)  Be not weary in well doing for in due season you will reap if you faint not!  Isaiah 28:11,12…For with stammering lips and another tongue will I speak to this people.  To whom He said, This IS my rest wherewith you may cause the weary to rest; and this IS the refreshing…!  Praise God, it is not by your own might or.power but by my Spirit says the Lord that the mountain will be removed!  

Pray in the Holy Spirit in other tongues, and be strong in the Lord and His might!  This IS the rest and refreshing that will deliver you completely from all weariness!

How much time have you spent worrying, freting,complaining, or speaking unbelief compared to how much time you have spent praying in tongues?  When you pray in tongues you also build yourself up on your most Holy FAITH!

IT IS HIGH TIME TO AWAKE OUT OF SLEEP TO RIGHTEOUSNESS AND GO IN AND POSSESS THE LAND!  LET NOT YOUR HEART BE TROUBLED, NETHER LET IT BE AFRAID!  BELIEVE IN JESUS AND LIVE THE “FOUND” LIFE, THE ABUNDANT LIFE JESUS GIVES, AND NOT the lost life wandering around in unbelief and confusion!  Stop acting like you did when you were “lost!”  Do NOT identify with the “lost,” but identify with FOUND, BECAUSE YOU ARE FOUND!

Be anxious for nothing, but in everything with all prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God  and the peace of God that passes knowledge will keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus!

 LIVING RIGHT SIDE UP, NOT UPSIDE DOWN

Jesus came full of grace and truth.  He healed the sick, raised the dead, and calmed the troubled sea!  All He did, He did for you and me!  

 A SONG ABOUT THE LIGHTHOUSE SAYS IT ALL!  There is a light that shines out to rescue us from destruction and Jesus is that light!  Praise God!  There are some of God’s people that need to be rescued!  They are living by circumstances and have become run by their senses and emotions and are living from the outside in and the devil has taken advantage and established evil patterns to keep you in a constant state of turmoil!  After this post, that will all change and be turned the right way and new, good, blessed patterns will be established!  

The devil is the father of lies and there is NO truth in him whatsoever, and he is the one that has been telling  you by circumstance that “you cannot take it or make it!”  The devil is the father of lies!  Who do you think it was that robbed  everything from you?  Who do you think got all those people to turn against you?  (the spirit of rejection)  The devil lied to them about you and they listened and acted on the lies to do a number on you!  They were trying to get you living in a spirit of rejection and get you to hate them!  The lies try to make you sad and rob hope by those lies and make the heart of the righteous sad who God has NOT made sad!  

All the mess from the devil tries to rob hope, but when you choose to live from the inside out when God’s Word says Hope you in God you rebuke the lies about you and life and you say: “There IS hope in God!  You get hold of that in your spirit and believe and say what He says in Philippians 4  “I can do ALL things through Christ Jesus!”  I will hold fast to hope and hope in God!    With Jesus it is UP and NOT down!  The devil is the one who went down so that is where he tries to take everyone with him by his foul, filthy, abominable lies from the pit of hell! 

 Here is a word for someone:  “The  just SHALL come OUT of trouble!  Proverbs 12.  Now put that in your spirit and believe it, say it, live it, for it IS YOURS!  That is the Word of God and we are to live by every Word of God and we do that from our inner man, our spirit!  

We are a spirit {the real us}, we have a soul {emotions and intellect], and live in a body!  When we receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit where does He flow from?  From our inner most being shall FLOW RIVERS OF LIVING WATER!  John 7:38.  He bypasses the outside and comes on the inside and flows out!  That’s how we need to live…from the inside out!  

God is a Spirit and they that worship  Him MUST worship Him in Spirit and in Truth!  Spirit goes to spirit!  You have faith that came by hearing the Word in your “heart,”  your spirit, your “inner man!”  Now, you can live by that faith in your spirit (inside), and NOT be ruled by circumstances on the outside!  

Jesus doesn’t just have the answer, He IS the answer!  Jesus doesn’t just “have” the light, He IS  the LIGHT!  That’s why Paul the apostle said:  “That I may KNOW HIM and the power of His resurrection!  Philippians 3:7-15.  INSIDE KNOWLEDGE is POWER!  When you KNOW the truth the truth MAKES YOU FREE!  FREE from heavy burdens!  FREE from fear!  FREE from the past! FREE from all torment!  FREE from the fear of the future!  FREE from all the lies of the devil and lying spirits!  FREE from rejection!  FREE from spirits of reverse order that cause you to get it backwards or upside down!

One man built his house on the sand and the storms came and beat on the house and destroyed it and he ended up living upside down…destroyed!  All other ground contrary to Jesus is sinking sand and when you build your house, your life on these things, your house will end up upside down!  The storms of life and outside circumstances rule you and your house is swayed by the fierce winds and rains beating on your house!  This was the life of the “foolish man!”  

Then there was a man of wisdom who built his house on the ROCK, and when the storms of life beat on it, the house stood strong, for the foundation was the ROCK!  When your life is built on Jesus, your life is right side up and NOTHING can take  you down… you are UNMOVABLE, ALWAYS ABOUNDING in the work of the Lord! 1 Corinthians 15:58.   I am not ashamed of the gospel  of Christ for it is the POWER OF GOD to salvation!  

Jesus said:  “I AM the way, the truth and the life.!”  He said:  “I AM the resurrection and the life and he that believes in me will live and never die!”

Anything, or anybody that tells you that you “cannot do” what God says you can do is a liar!  “I CAN do ALL things through Christ Jesus who strengthens me!” Philippians 4.. “ The Lord IS the strength of my life!” Psalm 27:1.  “Be strong in the Lord and the Power of HIS might!” Ephesians 6:10.  Don’t rely on your own strength , but rely on HIS STRENGTH!  HIM!  HE IS THE LIFE!  Live from the words of God in the inside in your spirit, and rule in life in Jesus over ALL circumstances on the outside, and NOT from the circumstances on the outside in!  When circumstances are calling the shots your emotions and mind will be confused, bewildered, tormented and messed up and will make you think that when the winds of the storm blow and beat on the house, it will go down in a pile of dust!

But Psalm 103:1-5  says, “Bless the Lord, oh my soul, and all that is within me, bless His holy name.”(He told his soul–the emotions and intellect–what to do: to bless the Lord!  He is living from the inside out!) Bless the Lord oh my soul, and forget not all His benefits; who forgives all your iniquities: who heals all your diseases; who redeems your life from destruction; who crowns you with loving-kindness and tender mercies; who satisfies your mouth with good things; so your youth is renewed like the eagle’s!

While you are blessing and praising the Lord; His presence manifests for He “inhabits,” lives in our n praises! In His presence is fullness n of joy, healing, deliverance, and all that He is and has for us, and will manifest as we reme.ber them, and use our faith in Him for all these blessings! All because you lived from the inside out and told your soul what to do from your spirit, your inner most being, and were not shaken or controlled by the outside circumstances!

Isaiah 40: 29-31  He gives power to the faint; and to them that have no might He increases strength.  Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall:  But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and NOT faint!  HALLELUJAH TO JESUS!   It is NOT by your own power or might, but by MY SPIRIT says the Lord that this mountain SHALL BE REMOVED!  (verse 7)!   Rely in and on the power of the Holy Spirit IN your spirit, in you to remove those mountains that stand in the way!  Pray the Word, believe it, say it, and it will come to pass in your life and rule OVER the circumstances!

The word of God is the revelation of Jesus Christ!  HE is the Living word!  No man comes to the Father except by Him!  All other ground is sinking sand where lives are turned upside down by the storms of life, lies of the devil, outside circumstances!  Jesus Christ is Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending!  Jesus is the Author and finisher of your faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame and is set down on the right hand of the Father God!  (Hebrews 12:2)

Philippians 1:6  He that has begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Christ!  Jesus Christ is Lord and every knee shall bow and every tongue confess that He is Lord  Psalm 18:2  He is the ROCK of our salvation!  Psalm 62:6  He only is my rock and my salvation:  he is my defence; I shall not be moved.

You are building your life on the ROCK, JESUS CHRIST AND SHALL NOT BE MOVED AS YOU TELL YOUR SOUL WHAT TO DO FROM YOUR SPIRIT…BLESS THE LORD OH MY SOUL!  I WILL BLESS THE LORD AT ALL TIMES; HIS PRAISE WILL CONTINUALLY BE IN MY MOUTH!  WHEN YOU ORDER YOUR LIFE IN THE WORD OF GOD, EVERYTHING ELSE MUST BOW!  YOU TELL THE STORM…PEACE BE STILL… AND THE STORM THAT WAS RAGING AND FLOODING THE BOAT STOPS INSTANTLY AND THERE IS A GREAT PEACE!  THEN AS YOU CONTINUALLY PRAISE THE LORD, HE INHABITS THAT PRAISE, SITS ON THE THRONE OF YOUR PRAISES AND DELIVERS YOU FROM ALL EVIL!  IF GOD BE FOR US, WHO THEN CAN BE AGAINST US!  

PRAISE GOD!  THANK YOU JESUS!  WE GIVE YOU GLORY OH LORD FOR YOUR LOVE, GRACE, AND POWER AND ALL THE PROMISES OF GOD THAT ARE YES AND AMEN, TO THE GLORY OF GOD BY US!  HALLELUJAH!  ENJOY LIVING YOUR NEW LIFE OF VICTORY FROM THE INSIDE OUT!  OUT OF YOUR INNER MOST BEING SHALL FLOW RIVERS OF LIVING WATER!  

AMEN AND AMEN!

This is a mini post to answer the questions about the rings of fire and move of God in these last days!

Many have asked what was the meaning of the rings of fire that appeared recently and suddenly all the demons that were in the flesh were driven out and people set free and received much from the Lord including being filled with the Spirit with the evidence of speaking in other tongues (languages)!  

I have known the light of God to come in a meeting and be over the head of the one ministering and moving around the meeting, and it was a tremendous boost in power and great miracles happened everywhere.

I asked the Lord about the rings of fire and what I received was:  “This is a taste of what goes on in the throne room!”  When you see rings of fire of the Holy Ghost, and all the demons in people are just burnt right on out, YOU KNOW IT IS THE ANOINTING OF THE HOLY GHOST AND FIRE for Jesus said that if demons are cast out by the Spirit of God, then, NO DOUBT: the kingdom of God has come to you.

Now, these manifestations of the Spirit came while everyone was praising God in unity and one accord!  God loves harmony!  He sent the singers and praisers out in front of the army in the Old Testament!  PRAISE IS THE HIGHEST FORM OF PRAYER!  When it says in Psalm 22:3 that God inhabits our praises, it means He dwells, lives in our praises!  The literal translation says:  God sits on the THRONE OF OUR PRAISES! God’s rule and power come into manifestation and special miracles out of the ordinary, above and beyond the usual, come!  Psalm 100:4 says, Enter His gates with thanksgiving, His courts with praise!  Zechariah 2 says that God says: I will be a wall of fire AROUND it… and Psalm 34:7 says: “The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear Him, and rescues them!” Notice He is a wall of fire AROUND it… and the angel of the Lord camps round about us!  “Circles of fire!”  We are in the last days outpouring of the Holy Spirit and these are signs of God to alert us and help us!  Receive His miracle working power into your life now and be made whole in Jesus name!  I loose everybody to be free to praise and worship the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, even Jesus Christ!  God will inhabit your praise and rule on the throne of your praises and His power and glory will flow and bring perfect liberty to prepare us for His coming back for us to take us home to be with Him forever.  

Now go back and read the last post again ..FAITH IN THE HEART FOR A BRAND NEW START BY A MIRACLE IN YOUR MOUTH, and let the Lord speak to you.  Praise Jesus for all that is going to happen from Him.

There is hope for “even” you!  The devil tries to make you feel as if you are lost, without hope, and only going to get worse and worse, for how could “you,” little, lacking, “you” ever get an answer to prayer!?  

When you look to Jesus, hope comes alive for He IS our hope!  Romans 15:13 “May the God of HOPE fill you with all joy and peace in believing  so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope!  

What Jesus did for one He will do for another!  When you see Jesus delivering the man who was crazy, naked,  and running around the tombs cutting himself with stones, and all the demons that were oppressing him go out, and he gets clothed and in his right mind for the first time in a long time; Jesus will deliver you from ALL demon oppression and loose your mind and bring you perfect peace in your heart and mind.  Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever!  

In Mark 5 there was a woman sick with an issue of blood.  She was bleeding to death.  For 12 long years she had gone to doctor after doctor after doctor and suffered many things of them, and grew worse and worse and worse not getting ANY better at all!  She had spent ALL that she had so had no more money to do anything!  Talk about feeling empty and hopeless!  She was spent mentally, emotionally, physically and financially!  HOPELESS!  But then….she HEARD OF JESUS!  Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God!  People spoke of Jesus, the Living Word!  She heard of Jesus delivering people like the man bound with demons of insanity, cutting himself, running around naked among the tombs, and how when he came to Jesus he was completely DELIVERED,sitting, clothed and in his right mind.  HALLELUJAH!  She heard of Jesus healing others of all kinds of things and raising the dead, and faith came alive in her heart!  

One day Jesus came and she heard He was there and she PRESSED her way through the crowd thronging Jesus, for she said within herself (this spent woman), “If I may but just touch the hem of His garment I will be made whole.”  She PRESSED through the crowd and touched the hem of His garment, and was INSTANTLY HEALED.  Jesus stopped and asked who touched Him.  The disciples said:  “You see the crowd thonging you and you say”who touched me?”  Jesus perceived virtue had gone out of Him!  She came and fell at His feet and said it was her and He told her that her faith made her whole and to go and be whole of her plague!  

From having spent ALL she had to being made whole by the virtue in Jesus, the living Word, by faith!  The faith in her heart ignited by hearing of Jesus cause her to put a miracle in her mouth by “saying” she would be made whole when she touched the hem of His garment!  Then as she put the words into action and PRESSED through the crowd and touched the hem of His garment she was made whole and the flow of blood dried up immediately after 12 long years!  She pressed in to possess the promises!   

If you erroneously believe that God permitted the oppression, sickness or other evil you will never press in to touch the hem of Jesus’ garment to be made whole!  God does not want you missing out on ANYTHING He has for you not even a little bit!  Sometimes believers compromise in their lazy spirit where they don’t press in to the kingdom of God and therefore let go of many blessings and promises that were theirs by inheritance through Jesus!  Hebrews 3;15-19 and 4;1 says;  “While it is said today if you will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.  For some, when they had heard, did provoke; however not all that came out of Egypt by Moses.  But with who was he grieved forty years?  Was it not with them that had sinned, whose carcasses fell in the wilderness?  And to who sware he that they should not enter into His rest, but to them that believed not?  So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.  Let us therefore  fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into His rest, any of you should seem to come short of it.

Then Hebrews 4:2,3  For to us was the gospel preached, as well as to them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.  For we which have believed do enter into rest!

We need to press  into the promises of God to make them performances!  The devil is a liar and the father of lies!  The devil is the one who says you can’t have the rest of God!  The devil is the one that tries make you weary in well doing to make you faint so you won’t reap!  We must allow the Holy Spirit to flow freely in and through us for this is “the refreshing and rest!  Isaiah 28:13.  

In these troubled days of wars and rumors of wars and the spirit of vexation troubling many we must PRESS IN TO EnTER INTO GOD’S REST, SO WE CAN LET THE PEACE OF GOD RULE IN OUR HEARTS AND LIVES! Then we will handle everything in life and walk in victory!  

We must drive the giants out of the land who are trespassers and trying to take a place that does not belong to them so we can enter into the rest of God and possess the land, the inheritance He has given us!  Some live life living haphazard with a “whatever will be will be” attitude, and think God just plops on them automatically whatever , whenever and so never get anywhere spiritually and are not grounded in the faith.

God says to be grounded in the faith, unmoveable, always ABOUNDING IN THE WORK OF THE LORD!  “Thanks be to God that always causes us to triumph and gives us the VICTORY.”  HE ALWAYS causes us to triumph in Jesus Christ, ALWAYS…ALWAYS…ALWAYS!  THAT’S what God does!

So God is NOT permitting awful things to teach!  He gave His Word to teach and His Word says He always gives us the victory and causes us to triumph!He gave us the weapons of our warfare that are mighty through God to the PULLING DOWN of strongholds!  Hallelujah!  2 Corinthians 10.    “I can do ALL THINGS through Christ which strengtheneth me!”  We have to take hold of the weapons of our warfare and USE them and tear DOWN the strongholds of satan including every fallen angel and every demon spirit!  Whatever we bind is bound, and whatever we loose is loosed!  The name of Jesus, the sword of the Spirit that is the Word of God, the blood of Jesus…weapons that tear  down the strongholds and looses people to receive the power of the Holy Spirit and be delivered and set free indeed!  Don’t forget that the fervent, effectual prayer of the righteous avails much…makes much power available! 

It is high time to awake out of sleep and possess the promises, drive the giants out of the land and enter into God’s rest!  How dare demon spirits rob you!  You need to get mad at the devil for the evil he is and is trying to do!  The demon spirits are NOT your friends!  It is time to stomp them under your feet!  “NOW the God of peace bruise (crush) satan under your feet NOW!  He that comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him!

God said to fight the good fight of faith, laying hold of eternal life!  Ekphesians says we wrestle not against flesh and blood but against principalities, powers the rulers of the darkness of this world!  Some just stop at…”we wrestle not” and never fight the good fight of faith , but lay back and accept whatever plops on them and blame God for it all!  What utter spiritual laziness and deception!  God said to submit yourself to Him, resist the devil and he will FLEE FROM YOU!  PRAISE GOD!  There is a battle to fight and win!  The devil comes to rob, kill, and destroy, but Jesus has come to give you life and life more abundantly!  The devil commissions and uses demons to do the dirty work!  They will rob you of blessings of joy, peace, healing, etc. IF you let them.  

God said that having done ALL to stand, STAND, and have the full armor of God on!  This is why it is so very important to search the scriptures, know the promises of God for THAT is the WILL of God in His Word.  Then, when anything is trying to rob what God promises YOU must bind, rebuke, resist, and fight those evil spirits and stand firm on the promises ofGod to possess what they promise!  Praise God as we press through we win!  

Living life from fear to fear is looking for the next rock to fall on your head, looking for the worst to happen..  It is a life full of mental and evotional torment!  Perfect love CASTS OUT fear for fear has torment!  You cannot flow in the Holy Spirit and fear at the same time!  It is time to be delivered of anxiety, fear, stress, anguish, and anxiety ans well as dread demons!

There is a BRAND NEW START BY A MIRACLE IN “YOUR” MOUTH RIGHT NOW!  THERE IS GOING TO BE DELIVERANCE FLOWING AND HEALING RIGHT NOW AS YOU SPEAK FAITH OVER AND AGAINST ALL THE EVIL YOU HAVE BEEN WRESTLING WITH, AND AS YOU PRESS THROUGH “THE CROWD” RIGHT NOW AND TOUCH THE HEM OF JESUS’ GARMENT!  HALLELUJAH!  VICTORY OVER DEPRESSION.. NOW!  VICTORY OVER FINANCIAL PROBLEMS AND STRESS!  HALLELUJAH! LORD JESUS LET YOUR MIRACLE WORKING POWER FLOW INTO EACH AND EVERY BELIEVER WHO PRESSES IN RIGHT NOW!  THANK YOU LORD THAT ALL ANXIETY AND ANGUISH LEAVES NOW!  FILL BELIEVERS WITH YOUR SPIRIT LORD, AND HEAL ALL MANNER OF SICKNESS AND DISEASE!  THANK YOU LORD THAT ALL PAIN LEAVES FOREVER NOW!  MIGRAINES  GONE IN JESUS NAME FOREVER!  PEACE IS YOURS, PEACE THAT PASSES ALL UNDERSTANDING!  THE JOY OF THE LORD IS YOUR STRENGTH AND RISES UP AND FLOWS MIGHTILY IN YOUR SPIRIT….HA HA HA HA HA HA GLORY TO GOD, WE LAUGH THE LAUGH OF GOD IN PERFECT HEALING, DELIVERING, RESTORING JOY!  

“FOR SHE SAID WITHIN HERSELF; “IF I TOUCH THE HEM OF HIS GARMENT, I WILL BE MADE WHOLE!”  SHE PRESSED THROUGH THE CROWD, TOUCHED THE HEM OF HIS GARMENT AND THE VIRTUE OF GOD FLOWED INTO HER AND MADE HER WHOLE AND THE FLOW OF BLOOD INSTANTLY STOPPED!  AND THIS WAS THE WOMAN WHO WAS SPENT, NOW MADE WHOLE BECAUSE THE FAITH IN HER HEART FOR A BRAND NEW START HAPPENED BECAUSE OF A MIRACLE IN HER MOUTH. THE FAITH OF GOD CALLS THOSE THINGS WHICH BE NOT AS THOUGH THEY WERE!  PRAISE JESUS, FAITH WORKS, AND TO GOD BE ALL THE GLORY!

                                           

God has a life for us, a NEW LIFE, free from the past, completely free!  Completely NEW! The law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus HAS  made me FREE from the law of sin and death!  Sow to the Spirit, reap life everlasting!  

OUTCAST  BEGGAR,  OR NEW LIFE?

You have a choice in life no matter what  shadow of hopelessness the devil has tried to cast over you!  God has set before us Life and death and then says “CHOOSE LIFE!”  So if God says to choose life then CHOOSE LIFE!

Here sits blind Bartimaeus, a beggar, an outcast, the lowest in society, no future, no promise of anything different than the blindness and the begging.  Then one day he hears that Jesus of Nazareth is passing by and faith ignites in his heart and he begins crying out “Jesus you Son of David, have mercy on me!”  People told him to shut up for they considered him unworthy for he was a blind beggar.  The more they said to shut up the more he cried out to Jesus to have mercy on him!  Jesus, you Son of David have mercy on me!  Notice he was NOT begging Jesus for money or begging for anything, but crying out for mercy!  Jesus told them to bring him to Him.  When Bartemaeus called for mercy from Jesus, the Son of David, he was saying Jesus was the Messiah, the Savior for the Savior would come through that lineage.  He had faith in Jesus! 

Bartimaeus JUMPED UP, and CAST OFF (threw off forcefully) his beggar garment  and came to Jesus!  Jesus asked him what he wanted, and Bartemaeus said that he might see!  Jesus told him that his faith had made him whole, and immediately received his sight and followed Jesus.  Note that he did NOT go back and get the beggar garment that beggars wore to identify themselves as beggars.    That life, that old life was over and he was in NEW LIFE IN JESUS as his faith had made him WHOLE!  He was NEW inside and his blind eyes opened to see!  No longer was he what he used to be, the old was gone and the NEW LIFE was his!

Wouldn’t it be silly for him to be following Jesus and a month later be thinking he was unworthy of Jesus because of his “old life” and start begging again?!  Wouldn’t it be stupid for Bartimaeus to think thoughts of the past and let guilt and sorrow and giving up overwhelm him?  You cannot walk in faith and unbelief at the same time!  You cannot walk in the light and darkness at the same time!  You cannot be sweet in Jesus,  forgive, walk in love,  and think the same bitter ways you used to  in your “OLD LIFE!”

We need to throw off the cloak, the garment of the past COMPLETELY and let it go, and walk in the NEW LIFE IN JESUS BY THE SPIRIT OF GOD!  The problem with many is they are not getting answers to prayers and their joy is not full.  The reason is they are trying to still be a beggar and come pleading their cause and begging out of “guilt,” and “false condemnation<” and “feeling unworthiness!”  NO, NO, NO, a thousand times NO!  The way you come to the throne of God is BOLDLY by the blood of Jesus!  His blood has cleansed us from all unrighteousness, and He made a New and Living way consecrated for us through the veil, that is to say  His flesh. (Hebrews 10)

The New Life with and in Jesus is NOT the “old life” made over!  The old has  passed away!  Throw off the old sin thoughts for you are a NEW CREATION!  You are born again… NEW LIFE!  We are “born again” …NEW LIFE in Jesus with no past held over us whatsoever!  The Spirit bears witness with your spirit that you are a child of God, born of the Spirit to NEW LIFE!

Romans 8:2  The law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus HAS made us FREE from the law of sin and death!  Throw away all the skeletons in the closet, all that was sin and death!  Thoughts, failures, sin, oppression, persons, places, or things, or circumstances!

If you are still trying to wear a beggar garment, remember  the old and new do NOT mix!  A little leaven leavens the whole lump!  Are you  remembering what you used to be as a sinner, feelings, unworthy, guilt and condemnation, etc.?  THROW IT ALL AWAY; THROW THAT GARMENT OFF AND STOP WEARING IT!  You are NOT the blind beggar anymore!  Reckon yourself to be dead to sin and ALIVE to God through Jesus!  We are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus!  

Notice Bartimaeus did NOT go back and get that beggar  coat, for he KNEW his beggar days were OVER and he followed Jesus, who is the LIFE!  

Some are in a “PIT OF DESPAIR” where there has been a complete loss or absence of hope!  You have been down so long you have accepted it as your lot in life, and “just the way it has to be.”  Everywhere you look the walls of the pit are holding you in and you see no way out!  There are demons of despair, hopelessness, no hope, and acceptance to get you to “accept” despair as the way it has to be for you!  

CRY OUT FOR MERCY TO JESUS NOW!  RIGHT NOW!  THANK YOU JESUS THAT this pit of despair is NOT their lot in life or the “way it has to be!”  Do NOT claim or accept any pit as your lot in life!  I bind, rebuke, and crush all the demon spirits of despair and the whole entourage and they must ALL leave you NOW in Jesus name, and NEVER come back!

Jesus is the WAY OUT and IN HIM IS LIFE AND IN HIM IS YOUR NEW LIFE!  Don’t look to the right or to the left, but let your eyes look right on… STRAIGHT AHEAD IN JESUS BY THE POWER OF THE HOLY GHOST!  

You are delivered from the pit of despair NOW in Jesus name!  Psalm 40:1-3  I waited patiently for the Lord; and He inclined to me, and heard my cry.  He brought me up also out of a horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings. And He has put a NEW SONG in my mouth, even praise to our God:  many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the Lord.  The NEW LIFE is a NEW SONG, even PRAISE to God!  God brings you out of the horrible pit to LIFE, the NEW LIFE of overcoming, and to live that LIFE  and let the LIFE of GOD flow through you, you must LIVE A LIFE OF PRAISE TO GOD!  God delivers you from the horrible pit of despair when you cry to Him for Mercy,  and puts your feet on a rock, and puts a NEW SONG in your mouth, even PRAISE TO OUR GOD!  AMEN!
