Those of us who are embracing the call to walk in Holiness, are destined to manifest HIS Glory here on earth!

How and when will this manifestation occur?  What does it matter?  FATHER will express HIS Glory in due time.

The word predestined means: to predetermine, decide beforehand; God decreeing from Eternity; to foreordain, appoint beforehand.

You and I were not unintended accidents at the time of our conception.  FATHER predetermined who we were to be prior to that moment.  Out of HIS Love, HE gave us the choice to walk in the foreordained appointment and anointing to fulfill our individual Divine purposes.  Paul understood this by direct revelation from Jesus Himself.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Romans chapter 8:

18 For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us.

19 For the creation waits with eager longing for the revealing of the Sons of God. 20 For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of him who subjected it, in hope

21 that the creation itself will be set free from its bondage to corruption and obtain the freedom of the glory of the Children of God.

22 For we know that the whole creation has been groaning together in the pains of childbirth until now.

23 And not only the creation, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies.

24 For in this hope we were saved. Now hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for what he sees?

25 But if we hope for what we do not see, we wait for it with patience.

I am fully committed to praying in THE SPIRIT daily, and I hope you are too.  FATHER intends to reveal HIS Glory in HIS vessels of honor who have been fully cleansed, ultimately becoming pure in heart.  Let patience have her perfect work!

Jesus spoke in Matthew chapter 5:

8 “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.”

As we fully embrace the importance of The Blood of Christ in our lives, we know by HIS Grace that we can stand before FATHER and see HIM.  We will have no questions but will worship HIM in the fear of THE LORD.

Paul continues in Romans chapter 8:

26 Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words.

27 And He Who searches hearts knows what is the Mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.

The Holy Spirit is the Perfect Intercessor and reliable Counselor to represent us to FATHER in all areas.  Who better to lead us into the manifestation of GOD’S Glory!

28 And we know that for those who Love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to HIS purpose.

Let us not shy away from the trials and tribulations that we must face as we move toward full maturity in Holiness.  Just as Joseph held onto the promise given to him by GOD as he was imprisoned, we too are not to fear the circumstances before us.

29 For those whom HE foreknew HE also predestined to be conformed to the Image of his Son, in order that HE might be the Firstborn among many brothers.

30 And those whom HE predestined HE also called, and those whom HE called HE also justified, and those whom HE justified HE also glorified.

In other Words, having determined our destiny ahead of time, HE called us to Himself and transferred His perfect righteousness to everyone He called. And those who possess His perfect righteousness He co-glorified with his Son!

Fully accept and embrace HIS Plan for your life!

As we walk in Holiness, the things of the world become dim and are no longer exciting priorities as they once were!

Moses recorded by THE SPIRIT in Psalm chapter 90:

14 Satisfy us in the morning with Your steadfast Love, that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.

David recorded by THE SPIRIT in Psalm chapter 17:

13 Arise, O LORD! Confront him, subdue him! Deliver my soul from the wicked by your sword,

14 from men by your hand, O LORD, from men of the world whose portion is in this life. You fill their womb with treasure; they are satisfied with children, and they leave their abundance to their infants.

15 As for me, I shall behold Your Face in righteousness; when I awake, I shall be satisfied with Your Likeness.

Asaph recorded by THE SPIRIT in Psalm 73:

25 Whom have I in Heaven but You? And there is nothing on earth that I desire besides You.

26 My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the Strength of my heart and my portion forever.

All three individuals were moved by THE SPIRIT to focus on the Spiritual rather than the worldly.  We are to do the same.

FATHER used Paul being moved by The Holy Spirit to write in Ephesians chapter 1:

3Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Who has blessed us in Christ with every Spiritual blessing in the Heavenly places,

4 even as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be Holy and blameless before Him. In Love

Embrace the Truth that we were chosen, and we are to walk in Holiness!  If we couldn’t, HE would not have stated such a Truth.

5 He predestined us for adoption to Himself as Sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of His Will,

Grasp this Truth that we were predestined to be Sons (and Daughters) through Jesus Christ (the Door).  This is the stated purpose of His Will.  Accept it!

6 to the praise of His glorious grace, with which He has blessed us in the Beloved.

7 In Him we have redemption through His Blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace,

8 which He lavished upon us, in all Wisdom and insight

Jesus Christ is the only Door, there is no other.  There is only one Way to GOD, THE FATHER.

9 making known to us the mystery of His Will, according to His purpose, which He set forth in Christ

FATHER is openly making known the mystery of HIS WILL with greater details at this time in history.

10 as a plan for the fullness of time, to unite all things in Him, things in Heaven and things on earth.

FATHER will unite Heaven and earth in the fullness of times.  The adversary knows it, the demons know it, and you and I know it.  This is why the adversary and his minions are making an all out attempt to deceive the world by luring their flesh and souls toward full and complete submission to unrighteousness.

The opening ceremony of this year’s Olympics included a group of drag queens openly mocking The Last Supper.  No longer are the devices and intent of the devil being hidden.  This is a sure indication that we are in the final stages of the last days.  Deception has become openly blatant! 

We must focus on immersing ourselves in The Spirit and The Word in preparation for the tumultuous times ahead.  Do not fear for we are assured of victory against the wiles of the devil.  As we walk in Holiness, we will not be moved by what the world has to offer.

As we walk in Holiness, our ability to test the spirits will improve and we will not be needlessly impacted by their prophecies!

The Beloved Disciple wrote by The Holy Spirit in 1^st John chapter 4:

1 Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world.

2 By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God,

3 and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world.

4 You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He Who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.

5 They are of the world. Therefore they speak as of the world, and the world hears them.

6 We are of God. He Who knows God hears us; he who is not of God does not hear us. By this we know the spirit of Truth and the spirit of error.

Over the years, I have heard hundreds of prophetic words, some by well-known prophets and some by those claiming to have the gift of prophecy.  I have relied on The Holy Spirit to discern not only the accuracy, but the impact of those prophecies on myself and my family.  Yes, it can be challenging to discern the Truth contained in those prophecies.

Some prophecies are intended to sway us by appealing to our souls.  Those words arise out of the soulish intent of the one giving the proclamation.  If it has to do with money, we must be especially cautious about the intent.

In Scripture, most prophecies have to do with warnings of what is to come.  It is vital that we understand that the future can change with prayer and fasting.  Some prophecies are certain and assured of coming to pass.  If the prophecy is expected to impact us, we are to rest assured that FATHER will navigate us through the tumultuous times declared in the prophecy.  We are not to fear the prophecy!

FATHER is longsuffering and patient with HIS children… thankfully.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Romans chapter 8:

26 Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.

This is exactly why I pray in THE SPIRIT daily.  The Holy Spirit knows the future and will lead and guide me through whatever lies ahead.  I cannot rely on the “talking heads” on TV or YouTube to know what is coming.  They simply attempt to project the future based on the past.

27 Now He who searches the hearts knows what the Mind of the Spirit is, because He makes intercession for the saints according to the Will of God.

28 And we know that all things work together for good to those who Love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.

No matter what happens, I place my trust in GOD Who Loves me and will see me through the times ahead.

29 For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the Image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren.

30 Moreover whom He predestined, these He also called; whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, these He also glorified.

31 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?

The adversary has plans to promote his kingdom at the expense of mankind.  He is using vessels of dishonor to carry out his nefarious activities.  He grossly underestimates the Power of GOD.  Let our trust in GOD never wane by what we see and hear in the world.

32 He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?

33 Who shall bring a charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies.

34 Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us.

35 Who shall separate us from the Love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

No one can separate us from Christ!

36 As it is written: “For Your sake we are killed all day long; We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.”

37 Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.

If we are never attacked, how can we be more than conquerors?  Our faith will be tested to see if it is genuine.  By continually immersing ourselves in The Word and prayer, we will be victorious in all circumstances.

38 For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come,

39 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.

If a prophecy causes fear to grip your heart, you should spend more time in strengthening your faith and trust in THE LORD.  When you are at total peace, your trust in FATHER has matured.

The following is a recent “prophecy” that has circulated due to its accuracy of the most recent assassination attempt.  This man later admitted that he inserted the conclusion that the blood was due to the ear drum rupturing rather than the bullet striking the ear.  Don’t let one minor detail determine the rest of his prophecy.  Allow The Holy Spirit to discern what actions to take, if any.

Amos 3:7 NKJV
Surely the Lord GOD does nothing, Unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets.

As we walk in Holiness, we will expose the false gods who are transforming the culture!

Moses recorded by THE SPIRIT in Deuteronomy chapter 29:

1 These are the Words of the Covenant which the LORD commanded Moses to make with the children of Israel in the land of Moab, besides the Covenant which He made with them in Horeb.

2 Now Moses called all Israel and said to them:

“You have seen all that the LORD did before your eyes in the land of Egypt, to Pharaoh and to all his servants and to all his land-

3 the great trials which your eyes have seen, the signs, and those great wonders.

4 Yet the LORD has not given you a heart to perceive and eyes to see and ears to hear, to this very day.

5 And I have led you forty years in the wilderness. Your clothes have not worn out on you, and your sandals have not worn out on your feet.

6 You have not eaten bread, nor have you drunk wine or similar drink, that you may know that I am the LORD your God.

7 And when you came to this place, Sihon king of Heshbon and Og king of Bashan came out against us to battle, and we conquered them.

8 We took their land and gave it as an inheritance to the Reubenites, to the Gadites, and to half the tribe of Manasseh.

9 Therefore keep the Words of this Covenant, and do them, that you may prosper in all that you do.

FATHER gave the children of Israel simple and straightforward instructions, yet we find that they ultimately would not follow this Covenant of blessing.

It is written by THE SPIRIT in 2^nd Kings chapter 17:

13 Yet the LORD testified against Israel and against Judah, by all of His prophets, every seer, saying, “Turn from your evil ways (Repent), and keep My commandments and My statutes, according to all the law which I commanded your fathers, and which I sent to you by My servants the prophets.”

FATHER sends prophets to confront the people of their wicked ways and to repent.  This was the message of John the Baptist: REPENT!

14 Nevertheless they would not hear, but stiffened their necks, like the necks of their fathers, who did not believe in the LORD their God.

15 And they rejected His statutes and His covenant that He had made with their fathers, and His testimonies which He had testified against them; they followed idols (false gods), became idolaters, and went after the nations who were all around them, concerning whom the LORD had charged them that they should not do like them.

16 So they left all the commandments of the LORD their God, made for themselves a molded image and two calves, made a wooden image and worshiped all the host of heaven, and served Baal.

17 And they caused their sons and daughters to pass through the fire, practiced witchcraft and soothsaying, and sold themselves to do evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke Him to anger.

This same story continues today.  Wall Street worships idols of gold.  The music industry promotes idol worship.

More details are given to us in Psalm 106:

35 But they mingled themselves with their enemies and learned to copy their works of darkness.

36 They began to serve their gods and bow before their idols. All of this led them away from you and brought about their downfall.

37 They even sacrificed their little children to the demon spirits,

38-39  shedding the innocent blood of their sons and daughters. These dark practices greatly defiled the land and their own souls, through the murder and bloodshed of their own babies! Their sins made them spiritual adulterers before you.

40 This is why YOU were furious. As YOUR anger burned hot against them, YOU couldn’t even stand to look at YOUR very own people any longer!

Abortion is the sacrifice of babies and is generally the result of one’s willingness to have sexual pleasure to satisfy the flesh.  A fetus in the womb is a baby.  It has separate and unique DNA.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in 1^st Corinthians chapter 10:

18 Consider the people of Israel when they fell into idolatry. When they ate the sacrifices offered to the gods, weren’t they becoming communal participants in what was sacrificed?

19 Now, am I saying that idols and the sacrifices offered to them have any value? 20 Absolutely not! However, I am implying that when an unbeliever offers a sacrifice to an idol, it is not offered to the true God but to a demon. I don’t want you to be participants with demons!

21 You can’t drink from the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons. You can’t feast at the table of the Lord and feast at the table of demons.

22 Who would ever want to arouse the Lord’s jealousy? Is that something you think you’re strong enough to endure?

We must be vigilant that we don’t allow ourselves to become desensitized to the culture around us.  Many are participating in idol worship even though they may be unaware of the darkness behind their focus and actions.  We must not allow ourselves to be pressured into following the crowd.  Wide is the path that leads to destruction.  We must be sensitive to the discerning of spirits and identify what and who is behind such worship!
