Our Heavenly Father wants us to get understanding from HIM. This will occur when we earnestly seek HIM and allow our hearts to be purified by The Word in a consistent effort.
Paul spoke by The Holy Spirit in Ephesians chapter 4:
17So with the Wisdom given to me from the Lord I say: You should not live like the unbelievers around you who walk in their empty delusions. 18Their corrupted logic has been clouded (darkened) because their hearts are so far from God—their blinded understanding and deep-seated moral darkness keeps them from the true knowledge of God. 19Because of spiritual apathy, they surrender their lives to lewdness, impurity, and sexual obsession.
Paul did not hold back from addressing the moral darkness we are now dealing with in our current society. The LGBTQURSV… groups are pushing their agendas, especially targeting our children in hope of adding converts to their blinded understanding and deep-seated moral darkness. Once again, the church has been asleep in protecting our children. These people have inserted their agendas in reading materials found in many libraries and schools now. They want our kids’ minds and hearts. We must not shirk our responsibility to protect our kids. The Truth must prevail and we are the Truth-tellers.
Jesus spoke in Matthew chapter 13:
10 And the disciples came and said to Him, “Why do You speak to them in parables?”
11 He answered and said to them, “Because it has been given to you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of Heaven, but to them it has not been given. 12 For whoever has, to him more will be given, and he will have abundance; but whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him. 13 Therefore I speak to them in parables, because seeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand. 14 And in them the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled, which says:
‘Hearing you will hear and shall not understand,
And seeing you will see and not perceive;
15 For the hearts of this people have grown dull.
Their ears are hard of hearing,
And their eyes they have closed,
Lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears,
Lest they should understand with their hearts and turn,
So that I should heal them.’
16 But blessed are your eyes for they see, and your ears for they hear; 17 for assuredly, I say to you that many prophets and righteous men desired to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it.
The more understanding you have, the more abundance you shall receive… in all areas. This is why The Holy Spirit keeps me on this topic for it is critical in this move of FATHER to get understanding so that we will be fully effective as mature Sons and Daughters.
The Word is the catalyst to the empowerment of what is already deposited in our hearts when we were born again. We need this understanding in order to come into full maturity.
Paul spoke by The Holy Spirit in Colossians chapter 2:
8 Beware that no one distracts you or intimidates you in their attempt to lead you away from Christ’s fullness by pretending to be full of wisdom when they’re filled with endless arguments of human logic. For they operate with humanistic and clouded judgments based on the mindset of this world system, and not the anointed Truths of the Anointed One.
9 For He is the complete fullness of Deity living in human form. 10And our own completeness is now found in Him. We are completely filled with God as Christ’s fullness overflows within us. He is the Head of every kingdom and authority in the universe!
11Through our union with Him we have experienced circumcision of heart. All of the guilt and power of sin has been cut away and is now extinct because of what Christ, the Anointed One, has accomplished for us.
Don’t be intimidated by those pushing their impure agendas. Be assured they will try to silence us with words of intimidation designed to overpower the weak. Now is the time to stand up for The Gospel and not be quiet “pew warmers”. Jesus was not intimidated by anyone and neither should we. He was not reluctant to challenge those in charge or those who promoted humanistic doctrines.
