Precious Life

Saturday, November 5th, 2022

I was a unique person before I was formed in the womb, thus abortion is actually murder.

If you have had an abortion, pray for forgiveness and know that your child is in Heaven.  FATHER forgives you of your ignorance of HIS Word.

It is written by The Holy Spirit in Acts chapter 17:

24   “The true God is the Creator of all things. He is the Owner and Lord of the Heavenly realm and the earthly realm, and He doesn’t live in man-made temples. 25 He supplies life and breath and all things to every living being. He doesn’t lack a thing that we mortals could supply for Him, for He has all things and everything He needs.

26 From one man, Adam, He made every man and woman and every race of humanity, and He spread us over all the earth. He sets the boundaries of people and nations, determining their appointed times in history.

27 He has done this so that every person would long for God, feel their way to Him, and find Him—for He is the God Who is easy to discover!

28 It is through Him that we live and function and have our identity; just as your own poets have said, ‘Our lineage comes from Him.’

29 “Since our lineage can be traced back to God, how could we even think that the Divine Image could be compared to something made of gold, silver, or stone, sculpted by man’s artwork and clever imagination?

30 “In the past God tolerated our ignorance of these things, but now the time of deception has passed away. He commands us all to repent and turn to God.

31 For the appointed day has risen, in which He is going to judge the world in righteousness by the Man He has designated. And the proof given to the world that God has chosen this Man is this: He resurrected Him from among the dead!”

None of us were born by accident.  FATHER clearly had a plan for every person who was conceived in the womb.  Your time was determined as well as your location on earth.

At conception, you have separate and unique DNA.  You sex was determined by FATHER thus there is no decision what gender you are meant to be.

When a woman is pregnant, there is a separate person in her thus she has no right to terminate that separate person whom GOD created and formed in her womb.  This is not my opinion, but it is the Truth found in Scripture.

It is written by The Holy Spirit in Psalm 139:

15   You even formed every bone in my body when You created me in the secret place, carefully, skillfully shaping me from nothing to something.

16   You saw who You created me to be before I became me! Before I’d ever seen the light of day, the number of days You planned for me were already recorded in Your Book.

What about rape and incest?  Does that change the meaning of FATHER’S Word?  No it doesn’t.  Can that child become a believer in Christ and grow up to be a fully productive believer?  Yes!  If you have a problem with FATHER’S Word then you will need to take it up with HIM, not me, for I am simply the messenger.

How often did Jesus tell us to forgive in a day?  490 times.  Did He have a list of exceptions?  No.  Unconditional Love really means unconditional.

Am I saddened by circumstances surrounding situations as mentioned above?  Of course I am.  The long-term solution is for all of mankind to receive salvation.  When the Sons and Daughters come to full maturity and walk in power and authority, expect a major change in society for the good.

I am thankful that my mother did not abort me, had she done so, you would not be reading these blogs.  Think about it.

Are You A Man-pleaser?

Friday, November 4th, 2022

Are you a man-pleaser or a GOD-pleaser?

Paul spoke by The Holy Spirit in Galatians chapter 1:

9   I will make it clear: Anyone, no matter who they are, that brings you a different gospel than the grace Gospel that you have received, let them be condemned and cursed!

10 I’m obviously not trying to flatter you or water down my message to be popular with men, but my supreme passion is to please God. For if all I attempt to do is please people, I would not be the true servant of the Messiah.

I have the same passion as Paul.  FATHER has bestowed so much grace on me over my lifetime, there is no way that I would back off now and move away from my relationship with HIM.

Many pastors have become man-pleasers in their watered-down messages these days.  They are more interested in protecting their source of income and status than speaking forth the Truth.

Paul declares that anyone preaching a gospel other than that of the One of grace centered around Jesus Christ, will be condemned and cursed.  Those are strong Words but need to be spoken.  Judgment will come on those who have and are preaching a compromising gospel to others.

A perfect example of this deals with the lgbqt movement.  Their sin is an abomination to Our Heavenly Father.  If it weren’t, HE would not have wiped out Sodom and Gomorrah.

Jesus spoke in Matthew chapter 11:

20  Then Jesus began to openly denounce the cities where He had done most of His mighty miracles, because the people failed to turn away from sin and return to God.

21 He said, “How tragic it will be for the city of Korazin! And how horrible for the city of Bethsaida! For if the powerful miracles that I performed in Korazin and Bethsaida had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have humbled themselves and repented, and turned from their sins.

22 Tyre and Sidon will better off on judgment day than you!

23 And Capernaum—do you really think you’ll be exalted because of the great miracles I have done there? No! You’ll be brought down to the depths of hell because of your rejection of Me. For if the miracles I worked in your streets were done in Sodom, it would still be standing today!

24 But I tell you, it will be more bearable for the region of Sodom in the day of judgment than it will be for you.”

And He spoke in Mark chapter 6:

11 “And whoever will not receive you nor hear you, when you depart from there, shake off the dust under your feet as a testimony against them. Assuredly, I say to you, it will be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city!”

Sodom and Gomorrah are clearly linked with judgment in Jesus’ own Words and He only speaks the Words FATHER gives Him.  Do you think that Truth is subject to change?  Absolutely not!  Doctors can do sex change operations, but they cannot change the gender chromosomes from XY to XX in every cell of your body.  It is what it is and there is nothing man can do about it.

Half-truths are lies.  Opinions usually contain incomplete facts so they cannot be trusted as well.  This is why I am not interested in having my own opinion about matters.  If you don’t know the Truth, it is simply better to keep your mouth shut.

Jesus was not concerned about having people like Him.  It is clear when He encountered the Pharisees, He was not attempting to be a man-pleaser.  Neither should we.  The prophets of the Old Testament were in the same boat.  Most of them were killed by those who were given Words of judgment.

It is time for all of us who are fully committed to Jesus, to take a stand against the unrighteousness before us.  Being silent is no different than being in agreement.  It is time to be a GOD-pleaser.

Do You Glorify GOD?

Thursday, November 3rd, 2022

Do you glorify THE LORD in all that you say and do?

Paul spoke by The Holy Spirit in Romans chapter 1:

18   For God in Heaven unveils His Holy anger breaking forth against every form of sin, both toward ungodliness that lives in hearts and evil actions. For the wickedness of humanity deliberately smothers the Truth and keeps people from acknowledging the Truth about God.

19 In reality, the Truth of God is known instinctively, for God has embedded this knowledge inside every human heart.

20 Opposition to Truth cannot be excused on the basis of ignorance, because from the creation of the world, the invisible qualities of God’s Nature have been made visible, such as His eternal power and transcendence. He has made His wonderful attributes easily perceived, for seeing the visible makes us understand the invisible. So then, this leaves everyone without excuse.

No one can claim ignorance when judgment comes.  Everyone knows inherently the difference between good and evil.  Over time, those who are in opposition to the Truth will become insensitive to the Truth and will pursue evil, leading to death and destruction.

21   because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened.

22 Professing to be wise, they became fools,

The first step to depravation is failure to GLORIFY GOD!  The first step to an even more intimate relationship with FATHER is to GLORIFY HIM!

Let’s look at the path of those who became fools:

23  For only a fool would trade the unfading splendor of the immortal God to worship the fading image of other humans, idols made to look like people, animals, birds, and even creeping reptiles!

They begin to worship idols, whether man or beasts.  Do you exalt movie stars, musicians, singers, or others who are in the spotlight?  Do you exalt a man who nearly fell three times going up the steps to his airplane?  Only THE LORD should command our words of praise.  We should not glorify men or women for they cannot get us to Heaven.  Actually, they have problems of their own to deal with.

24   This is why God lifted off His restraining hand and let them have full expression of their sinful and shameful desires. They were given over to moral depravity, dishonoring their bodies by sexual perversion among themselves—

25 all because they traded the Truth of God for a lie. They worshiped and served the things God made rather than the God who made all things—glory and praises to Him for eternity of eternities! Amen!

You and I must resist the lies that are being spewed out by the mainstream media.  We must let The Holy Spirit show us the Truth of the matter.

26-27   For this reason God gave them over to their own disgraceful and vile passions. Enflamed with lust for one another, men and women ignored the natural order and exchanged normal sexual relations for homosexuality. Women engaged in lesbian conduct, and men committed shameful acts with men, receiving in themselves the due penalty for their deviation.

28 And because they thought it was worthless to embrace the true knowledge of God, God gave them over to a worthless mind-set, to break all rules of proper conduct.

The church has allowed the lgbqtuvwxyz movement to go mainstream without restraint.  They are now attempting to indoctrinate the children to their moral depravity.  We must stand up to such perversion being spewed out by these blinded individuals.  Jesus was not passive toward the Pharisees who attempted to exert control over the population.  We are in the midst of a spiritual battle.  FATHER will exert tough Love in response to those who have totally rejected HIM.

29 Their sinful lives became full of every kind of evil, wicked schemes, greed, and cruelty. Their hearts overflowed with jealous cravings, and with conflict and strife, which drove them into hateful arguments and murder. They are deceitful liars full of hostility. They are gossips

30 who love to spread malicious slander. With inflated egos they hurl hateful insults at God, yet they are nothing more than arrogant boasters. They are rebels against their parents and totally immoral.

31 They are senseless, faithless, ruthless, heartless, and completely merciless.

32 Although they are fully aware of God’s laws and proper order, and knowing that those who do all of these things deserve to die, yet they still go headlong into darkness, encouraging others to do the same and applauding them when they do!

The blind are leading the blind and ignorant toward death and destruction.  You and I are to be fully led by The Holy Spirit and confront the demons who are leading the “rainbow” parade toward the proverbial cliff.

Our first priority is to glorify GOD.  This is why I added this topic to the RENEW application for you to access on a daily basis.  You need to arrest your emotions and purpose to listen/read those Scriptures daily.  This is why I placed this topic at the top of the list.

Performance Versus Grace

Wednesday, November 2nd, 2022

Faith gains us access to FATHER, not our perceived holiness.

The blessings FATHER bestows on me is not due to my holiness, but it is due to HIS grace.  There is no way I could earn my way to salvation or a relationship with FATHER.  It is only by the Sacrifice of My Lord Jesus Christ that I am able to walk in a Holy manner.

It is not about what I’ve done but Who I know!  My works do not deserve HIS blessings nor do my tithes deserve HIS blessing.  FATHER’S unconditional Love and grace for you and me are the reasons HE imparts blessings to us.

I purpose to walk Holy and be a giver out of my Love for Jesus Christ.  I write these blogs out of my Love for Him.  I purpose to be faithful to all that FATHER has called me to say and do.  My actions are to be Love-based, not performance-based.  If I give out of “duty”, I am missing the point.  If I give out of Love, I have embraced the Truth.  This is why we are to be cheerful givers rather than giving out of fear of condemnation.

Paul spoke by The Holy Spirit in Galatians chapter 4:

16   Have I really become your enemy because I tell you the Truth?

My wife and I attended churches where giving was emphasized whether it was obvious or in a subtle fashion.  In some cases, you felt like you had to hold onto your wallet lest you leave without any money at all.  There were evangelistic conferences that placed similar demands on the people.

Did Jesus take up an offering during His earthly ministry?  When He fed the multitudes, they left with more than they came with.  FATHER’S grace was expressed in these events.

Never give to Servias out of duty.  Only give out of Love.

Paul spoke by The Holy Spirit in Romans chapter 5:

1   Our faith in Jesus transfers God’s righteousness to us and he now declares us flawless in His Eyes. This means we can now enjoy true and lasting peace with God, all because of what Our Lord Jesus, the Anointed One, has done for us.

2 Our faith guarantees us permanent access into this marvelous kindness that has given us a perfect relationship with God. What incredible joy bursts forth within us as we keep on celebrating our hope of experiencing God’s glory!

Jesus is the Reason our joy can and will burst forth.  Knowing Him and walking in grace is why I can cheerfully give.  There is no level of performance I can personally attain that will justify me before MY FATHER.

We should live Holy because GOD has changed us.  If we are having challenges in our walk, we should renew our minds to align them with our spirit.

Don’t let the perversion of the Truth manipulate you into becoming performance-based in your thinking and actions.  When you are led by THE SPIRIT, you will joyfully respond and act.  It takes away the performance-based thinking that we must do a list of things in order to be pleasing to FATHER.  No, faith IN HIM is what pleases HIM, not my goodness.

A Friend Of GOD

Tuesday, November 1st, 2022

Do you see yourself as a “friend” of GOD?

Jesus spoke in John chapter 15:

14   “You show that you are My intimate friends when you obey all that I command you.

15 I have never called you ‘servants,’ because a master doesn’t confide in his servants, and servants don’t always understand what the master is doing. But I call you My most intimate friends, for I reveal to you everything that I’ve heard from My Father.

16 You didn’t choose Me, but I’ve chosen and commissioned you to go into the world to bear fruit. And your fruit will last, because whatever you ask of My Father, for My sake, He will give it to you!

17 So this is My parting command: Love one another deeply!”

In the mid 1990’s I was praying in THE SPIRIT with some other men and FATHER told me I was HIS friend.  That totally surprised me for I felt undeserving to be HIS friend.  I couldn’t claim such an honor on my own, but HE initiated it.  HE had commanded me to pray at least one hour each morning before work which began in 1990 and I was obedient to that command.  I did this for ten years until HE released me.  You are just as special to HIM as I am.

The key to becoming intimate with FATHER and Jesus is to be obedient to The Word and The Holy Spirit.  Increased obedience brings forth greater intimacy.  What was Jesus’ parting command?  Love one another deeply!  The result will be that you bear much fruit on behalf of The Kingdom.

Outward fruit is a testimony of our relationship with Our Heavenly Father.  Lack of fruit is reviewed when Heavenly justice is served.

5  “I am the sprouting Vine and you’re My branches. As you live in union with Me as your Source, fruitfulness will stream from within you—but when you live separated from Me you are powerless.

6 If a person is separated from Me, he is discarded; such branches are gathered up and thrown into the fire to be burned.

7 But if you live in life-union with Me and if My Words live powerfully within you—then you can ask whatever you desire and it will be done.

8 When your lives bear abundant fruit, you demonstrate that you are My mature disciples who glorify my Father!

Jesus’ Words clearly differentiate between those producing fruit and those who at best are simply observers.  Only mature disciples produce good fruit which glorifies Our Heavenly Father.  How is your branch doing?  Does it have fruit on it?  It is better that I pose the question than for Jesus to later review your life and determine your fruit production.  Let your joy be full now as you correct whatever is keeping you from being fruitful.

You and I are meant to produce abundant fruit and as we are in union with Jesus, our requests will be manifested.  This not only includes needs but also desires.  FATHER has given me the desires of my heart in the past, even those that I was reluctant to request.  Why?  HE is a Loving Father and wants to bless His Sons and Daughters.  HE will also call you HIS Friend just as earthly fathers calls the mature children “friends” as well.
