In the following prayer, Jesus prayed to Our Heavenly Father that we walk in unity, glory, and Love.  If there are any Words of Jesus that we should fully embrace and walk in accordingly, this prayer is it!

In John chapter 17, Jesus prayed the following for you and me:

20 “And I ask not only for these disciples,

    but also for all those who will one day

    believe in Me through their message.

21 I pray for them all to be joined together as one

    even as YOU and I, Father, are joined together as One.

    I pray for them to become one with US

    so that the world will recognize that you sent me.

22 For the very glory YOU have given to Me I have given them

    so that they will be joined together as one

    and experience the same unity that We enjoy.

23 You live fully in Me and now I live fully in them

    so that they will experience perfect unity,

    and the world will be convinced that YOU have sent Me,

    for they will see that YOU Love each one of them

    with the same passionate Love that YOU have for Me.

24 “Father, I ask that YOU allow everyone that YOU have given to Me

    to be with Me where I am!

    Then they will see My full glory—

    the very splendor YOU have placed upon Me

    because YOU have Loved Me even before the beginning of time.

25 “YOU are My righteous Father,

    but the unbelieving world has never known YOU

    in the perfect way that I know you!

    And all those who believe in Me

    also know that YOU have sent Me!

26 I have revealed to them who YOU are

    and I will continue to make YOU even more real to them,

    so that they may experience the same endless Love

    that YOU have for Me,

    for YOUR Love will now live in them, even as I live in them!”

You and I should refer to this prayer daily since it is intended to manifest fully and completely in our lives.  We should accept nothing less.  On the Mount of Transfiguration FATHER spoke the Words “Listen to My Son” thus we should heed HIS directive without exception.  Peter was there and later he wrote by The Holy Spirit in his 2^nd epistle chapter 1:

3 Everything we could ever need for life and complete devotion to God has already been deposited in us by HIS Divine power. For all this was lavished upon us through the rich experience of knowing HIM Who has called us by name and invited us to come to HIM through a glorious manifestation of HIS goodness. 4 As a result of this, HE has given you magnificent promises that are beyond all price, so that through the power of these tremendous promises you can experience partnership with the Divine nature, by which you have escaped the corrupt desires that are of the world.

Peter knew the importance of Jesus’ prayer to FATHER and he encouraged us to move into full maturity of Agape Love, unity, and glory.  He continued:

5 So devote yourselves to lavishly supplementing your faith with goodness,

and to goodness add understanding,

6 and to understanding add the strength of self-control,

and to self-control add patient endurance,

and to patient endurance add Godliness,

7 and to Godliness add mercy toward your Brothers and Sisters,

and to mercy toward others add unending Love.

Peter spoke of these virtues already existing within us since The Holy Spirit resides in us.  What then is the issue?  It is our inactivity, blindness, or lack of acceptance of Jesus’ prayer.  We have no excuse for being fruitless.

8 Since these virtues are already planted deep within, and you possess them in abundant supply, they will keep you from being inactive or fruitless in your pursuit of knowing Jesus Christ more intimately.

9 But if anyone lacks these things, he is blind, constantly closing his eyes to the mysteries of our faith, and forgetting his innocence—for his past sins have been washed away.

Let us not fall into the excuse of “lack” or blindness.  Embrace the prayer today.

We are meant to have boundaries and discipline in walking out our Divine destiny and we must have a teachable heart.  Past doctrines in our mindset must be assessed to determine whether they are wrong and in error according to the deep mysteries of GOD’S Kingdom realm.  The Holy Spirit will have no issue in revealing those inaccurate past doctrines if you have a teachable heart.  As for me, I simply want to walk in Absolute Truth.  My past opinions are now of no value and I do not seek to develop new ones as I pursue the Kingdom of GOD.

After speaking forth the parable of the soils in the heart, Jesus spoke to His disciples in Luke chapter 8:

9 Later His disciples came to Jesus and asked him privately what deeper meaning was found in this parable. 10 He said, “You have been given a teachable heart to perceive the secret, hidden mysteries of God’s Kingdom realm. But to those who don’t have a listening heart, My Words are merely stories. Even though they have eyes, they are blind to the true meaning of what I say, and even though they listen, they won’t receive full revelation.”

What was the problem with the unwise virgins?  They HAD TO RELY on the wise virgins since they had become slack in their pursuit of The Kingdom.  They had not relied on The Holy Spirit and when the time had come, it was too late for them.  The wise virgins could not help them make up for this lost time of pursuing the deeper mysteries.  Why do you think FATHER has had me write nearly 4,000 blogs through this site? 

Part of my Divine destiny was and is to teach as evidenced since the late 1970’s.  In fact, when I taught the “young married couples” on the Sons of GOD revelation found in the Gospel of John in the mid-1990’s, I was confronted by the church leadership.  After the third rejection of this revelation, FATHER had my family depart.  This began a 10 year period of preparation for the current teaching of Agape Love.  As you can appreciate, FATHER does not get in a hurry.  Clearly, HE worked on my patience! 

For some reason, HE utilizes the “decade timeframe” with me.  I may be a little slow compared to many of the readers. 🙂 However, I would not change a thing and am grateful for HIS maturing process in my life.  It is not how you start, but how you finish the race.

Mark recorded by The Holy Spirit in chapter 9:

1 Jesus said to them, “I tell you the Truth, there are some standing here now who won’t experience death until they see God’s Kingdom realm manifest with power!”

2 After six days, Jesus took Peter and the two brothers, Jacob and John, and hiked up a high mountain to be alone. And Jesus’ appearance was dramatically altered, for He was transfigured before their very eyes! 3 His clothing sparkled and became glistening white—whiter than any bleach in the world could make them. 4 Then suddenly, right in front of them, Moses and Elijah appeared, and they spoke with Jesus.

5 Peter blurted out, “Beautiful Teacher, this is so amazing to see the three of you together! Why don’t we stay here and set up three shelters: one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah?” 6 (For all of the disciples were in total fear, and Peter didn’t have a clue what to say.) 7 Just then, a radiant cloud began to spread over them, enveloping them all. And God’s voice suddenly spoke from the cloud, saying, “This is MY most dearly Loved Son—always listen to Him!”

FATHER spoke directly to the three disciples and gave them explicit orders to listen and pay close attention to the Words of Jesus.  Can there be any misunderstanding in what FATHER said?  The three disciples were awestruck by the supernatural event and had no clue of how to respond.  They enjoyed the experience but it did not immediately change their hearts.

What happened afterward?  The adversary was causing controversy as Jesus and the three disciples were returning from a most glorious event.  Distraction is a primary weapon of the demons and none of the disciples were yet responding to the Words of Jesus.

9 As they all hiked down the mountain together, Jesus ordered them, “Don’t tell anyone of what you just witnessed. Wait until the Son of Man is raised from the dead.” 10 So they kept it to themselves, puzzled over what Jesus meant about rising from the dead.

11 Then they asked him, “Why do the religious scholars insist that Elijah must come before the Messiah?”

12 He answered them, “They’re right. Elijah must come first to put everything in order. And what about all that is written about the Son of Man? It is true that He must endure many sufferings and be rejected. 13 So Elijah has already appeared, just as it was prophesied, and they did to him whatever they pleased.”

Jesus revealed to those disciples His anticipated death and resurrection and their hearts were not able to discern His Words for they were puzzled.  We look back and marvel at their unbelief and doubt.  Their experience did not change them for they had no discernment.  In effect, they were entertained by the event.

14 Now when they came down the mountain to the other nine disciples, they noticed a large crowd of people gathered around them, with the religious scholars arguing with them. 15 The crowd was astonished to see Jesus Himself walking toward them, so they immediately ran to welcome Him.

16 “What are you arguing about with the religious scholars?” He asked them.

17 A man spoke up out of the crowd. “Teacher,” he said, “I have a son possessed by a demon that makes him mute. I brought him here to You, Jesus. 18 Whenever the demon takes control of him, it knocks him down, and he foams at the mouth and gnashes his teeth, and his body becomes stiff as a board. I brought him to Your disciples, hoping they could deliver him, but they were not strong enough.”

19 Jesus said to the crowd, “Why are you such a faithless people?  How much longer must I remain with you and put up with your unbelief? Now, bring the boy to me.”

Our hearts must be changed until we are fully aligned with the Word of GOD.  We must set apart whatever distractions are set before us.  In the U.S., the masses are focused on entertainment in some form and the adversary is more than willing to oblige.  Interactive games, 24 hour TV with a multitude of channels and topics are meant to distract us from the Words of Jesus along with the power and authority associated with those Words.

The adversary creates a need and then provides a worldly solution to that need.   A faithless generation falls into that trap and looks to the world for answers rather than The Word Who was made flesh and dwelt among us.  The Holy Spirit was given to us to enable us to discern such entrapments. 

Think about the current pandemic and the world’s solution to it.  Would Jesus respond to this pandemic by wearing a mask, socially distance, and give His body to a vaccine with no true testing history?  Knowing Him, He would respond “How much longer must I remain with you and put up with your unbelief?”

We MUST change and come to full maturity.  More entertainment will not increase our maturity.  We must discern the condition of our hearts and continue to change and correct our priorities.  FATHER gave the three disciples explicit instructions and we are meant to respond to HIS directive as well.

Jesus confronted the situation with the demon-possessed boy.

25 Now when Jesus saw that the crowd was quickly growing larger, He commanded the demon, saying, “Deaf and mute spirit, I command you to come out of him and never enter him again!”

26 The demon shrieked and threw the boy into terrible seizures and finally came out of him! As the boy lay there, looking like a corpse, everyone thought he was dead. 27 But Jesus stooped down, gently took his hand, and raised him up to his feet, and he stood there completely set free!

28 Afterwards, when Jesus arrived at the house, his disciples asked Him in private, “Why couldn’t we cast out the demon?”

29 He answered them, “This type of powerful spirit can only be cast out by fasting and prayer.”

The nine disciples were unprepared.  The three returning disciples were also ill-equipped to deal with the demon.  Jesus gave us the answer to dealing with the kingdom of darkness and it takes serious commitment.  This is the answer to the adversary’s attempts to keep us in bondage to his devices.  This is all out war and we must be vigilant and not allow the distractions to keep us from our Divine destiny.  We must not allow ourselves to be denied.  Press in!

Jesus spoke in Luke chapter 18:

18 One day Jesus taught the apostles to keep praying and never stop or lose hope. He shared with them this illustration:

2 “In a certain town there was a civil judge, a thick-skinned and godless man who had no fear of others’ opinions. 3 And there was a poor widow in that town who kept pleading with the judge, ‘Grant me justice and protect me against my oppressor!’

4–5 “He ignored her pleas for quite some time, but she kept asking. Eventually he said to himself, ‘This widow keeps annoying me, demanding her rights, and I’m tired of listening to her. Even though I’m not a religious man and don’t care about the opinions of others, I’ll just get her off my back by answering her claims for justice and I’ll rule in her favor. Then she’ll leave me alone.’”

6 The Lord continued, “Did you hear what the ungodly judge said—that he would answer her persistent request? 7 Don’t you know that God, the True Judge, will grant justice to all of HIS Chosen Ones (true believers) who cry out to HIM night and day? HE will pour out his Spirit upon them. He will not delay to answer you and give you what you ask for. 8 God will give swift Justice to those who don’t give up. So be ever praying, ever expecting, just like the widow was with the judge. Yet when the Son of Man comes back, will He find this kind of persistent faithfulness in his people?”

I say “yes” to Jesus’ question of “when the Son of Man comes, will He find faith on the earth?”  I expect FATHER’S Justice to prevail on earth as It does in Heaven.  One of the foundations of HIS Throne is Justice as revealed in Psalm 89:

14 YOUR glorious throne rests on a foundation

of Righteousness and Justice.

Grace and Truth are the attendants who go before you.

You and I have a covenant with FATHER established through Jesus Christ.  Therefore we have the rights and expectations issued from the Throne which includes justice here on earth.  We need to expect and be persistent in our expectation of results just like the parable reveals.  This requires faith!

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in 1 Corinthians chapter 2:

10 But God now unveils these profound realities to us by the Spirit. Yes, HE has revealed to us HIS inmost Heart and deepest mysteries through the Holy Spirit, who constantly explores all things. 11 After all, who can really see into a person’s heart and know his hidden impulses except for that person’s spirit? So it is with God. HIS thoughts and secrets are only fully understood by HIS Spirit, the Spirit of God.

This is why I urge all believers to pray in THE SPIRIT ever day!

12 For we did not receive the spirit of this world system but the Spirit of God, so that we might come to understand and experience all that grace has lavished upon us. 13 And we articulate these realities with the Words imparted to us by THE SPIRIT and not with the words taught by human wisdom. We join together Spirit-revealed Truths with Spirit-revealed Words. 14 Someone living on an entirely human level rejects the revelations of God’s Spirit, for they make no sense to him. He can’t understand the revelations of the Spirit because they are only discovered by the illumination of the Spirit. 15 Those who live in THE SPIRIT are able to carefully evaluate all things, and they are subject to the scrutiny of no one but God.

Man cannot judge me for he cannot discern Spiritual things.  Only FATHER can judge me for HE is able to scrutinize and evaluate what is in my heart.  When HE judges me, HE corrects me and my path thus leading me to the Highway of Holiness.  This is what revelation is all about for once we receive revelation, we are able to discern our past error and make needed adjustments.  Oh, how many past doctrines had to be nullified and voided from my mindset!  I prefer to judge myself by responding to The Holy Spirit revealing fresh revelation and correction. 

How else can I truly be in unity with FATHER?  How else can I be in true unity with mature Sons and Daughters?

Jesus spoke this Truth in John chapter 14:

12 “I tell you this timeless Truth: The person who follows Me in faith, believing in Me, will do the same mighty miracles that I do—even greater miracles than these because I go to be with My Father! 13 For I will do whatever you ask Me to do when you ask Me in My Name. And that is how the Son will show what the Father is really like and bring glory to HIM. 14 Ask me anything in My Name, and I will do it for you!”

Jesus expects us to walk in and manifest faith in these last times… in all areas.  This is what a true follower (believer) does.  As we finally grasp THE FEAR OF GOD and walk in IT, we will manifest those miracles Jesus refers to in the above passage.  This is an absolute necessity on our part.

Malachi wrote by THE SPIRIT in chapter 3:

8 ​​“Will a man rob God?

​​Yet you have robbed Me!

​​But you say,

​‘​In what way have we robbed You?’

​​In tithes and offerings.

9 ​​You are cursed with a curse,

​​For you have robbed Me,

​​Even this whole nation.

10 ​​Bring all the tithes into the storehouse,

​​That there may be food in MY House,

​​And try ME now in this,”

​​Says the LORD of hosts,

​​“If I will not open for you the windows of Heaven

​​And pour out for you such blessing

​​That there will not be room enough to receive it.

​

11 ​​“And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes,

​​So that he will not destroy the fruit of your ground,

​​Nor shall the vine fail to bear fruit for you in the field,”

​​Says the LORD of hosts;

12 ​​And all nations will call you blessed,

​​For you will be a delightful land,”

​​Says the LORD of hosts.

Many believers will argue this passage away as though FATHER changed HIS WORD once Jesus went to the cross and was resurrected. The tithe has always been FATHER’S since the Garden where HE established the difference between HIM and Adam and Eve by placing one tree forbidden for them to freely eat from.  Though they were made in THEIR Image, there was one difference- the fruit of that tree which was in the center of the Garden.  This reminded Adam and Eve that they were not GOD.  HE could handle the issues associated with good and evil but they could not.

The Higher and the lower were established in the Garden and that has not changed… ever!  The tithe is of the same MINDSET of FATHER.  HE placed us on earth and to remind us of THE HIGHER, the tithe is HIS and always has been.

What challenges that TRUTH?  Greed, for the love of money is the root of all evil.  Man can rationalize away this TRUTH has he has done with many other ABSOLUTE TRUTHS in HIS WORD but IT still stands today and we will be judge accordingly… in Love of course.

13 ​​“Your words have been harsh against Me,”

​​Says the LORD,

​​“Yet you say,

​‘​What have we spoken against You?’

14 ​​You have said,

​‘​It is useless to serve God;

​​What profit is it that we have kept His ordinance,

​​And that we have walked as mourners

​​Before the LORD of hosts?

15 ​​So now we call the proud blessed,

​​For those who do wickedness are raised up;

​​They even tempt God and go free.’ ”

​

A Book of Remembrance was and is being written on behalf of those who FEAR THE LORD.  Does this sound familiar?  Do you really think that FATHER is  recording your life but leaving out the area of tithing and generosity toward others?

16 ​​Then those who feared the LORD spoke to one another,

​​And the LORD listened and heard them;

​​So a book of remembrance was written before Him

​​For those who FEAR THE LORD

​​And who meditate on HIS Name.

​

17 ​​“They shall be Mine,” says the LORD of hosts,

​​“On the day that I make them My jewels (special treasure).

​​And I will spare them

​​As a man spares his own son who serves him.”

18 ​​Then you shall again discern

​​Between the righteous and the wicked,

​​Between one who serves God

​​And one who does not serve Him.

It pays to serve GOD and the righteous know this as a certainty.  Those who are truly righteous and Holy have no issue in giving their tithes which is really FATHER’S to begin with.  Why would I withhold a tithe when it is not mine to begin with.  FATHER says it is robbery to hold onto the tithe.

Where should I give the tithe?  It is to be given to establish HIS Kingdom and represent HIS Divine Intent on earth.  This is why Servias receives and disburses tithes to those who are in desperate need- the extremely poor.

Why should I give tithes to churches who have sidestepped the Seven Spirits of GOD and do not acknowledge the critical ministry of The Holy Spirit?  Why should I support “clouds without rain”?  There are over 42,000 religions which build and promote their own agendas.  My tithe and offerings need to be placed where Agape Love is at the center of intent. 

Impoverished kids need to experience hope and that is why it is ordained by FATHER to give HIS TITHE to them.  They also need to experience unconditional Love.  HIS TITHE promotes this virtue.  Don’t you know that those who are commissioned to distribute our tithes also receiving blessings as they help these kids with our tithes?

My wife and I put our money where our mouths are tithe to Servias.  We also give additionally to cover expenses in order to keep your tithe at 100% toward the impoverished kids… and we give joyfully.  We want to be included FATHER’S special treasure (the jewels).

John wrote by The Holy Spirit in chapter 12:

4 But one of His disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, who would betray Him, said, 5 “Why was this fragrant oil not sold for three hundred denarii and given to the poor?” 6 This he said, not that he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and had the money box; and he used to take what was put in it.

Both Jesus and John knew that Judas was stealing from the money box.  This showed that the intent of the money given directly to Jesus was meant to care for the poor yet greed by the betrayer stole the money.  Think about it!

FATHER is very explicit in Malachi chapter 3.  When I tithe, I acknowledge that I fear and reverence THE LORD with the firstfruits of my life.  How can you claim to FEAR THE LORD otherwise?

Yes, my wife and I give a monthly offering to another ministry who has the same heart as mine.  The man and wife who are at the center of this ministry take no salary but are also the chief “givers” to this ministry from the income derived from his business, past investments, and retirement.  I can attest that there is a purity when you are not a “hireling” to spread the Gospel.  You are above reproach.

I am not interested in ministering to:

The wolves.

The tares of the field.

Those who are “clouds without rain”. (having a form of godliness but denying its power)

The unwise virgins.

I am unwilling to be on the wrong side of Jesus in any fashion.  Now is the time for us to be “all in”.  How many times must we be warned before the door gets closed on those who are unwise in their actions or lack thereof?

Servias is all about promoting Agape Love and maturing the saints (aka the remnant, the elect).  Only wise virgins embrace FATHER’S WORD such as those mentioned in Malachi 3:16 above. 

We are at war with the adversary and we don’t need to fool around with the world’s agenda.  Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in 2 Timothy chapter 2:

3 Overcome every form of evil as a victorious soldier of Jesus the Anointed One. 4 For every soldier called to active duty must divorce himself from the distractions of this world so that he may fully satisfy THE ONE WHO chose him.

The Holy Spirit has been building a foundation for those who read and embrace these writings to become productive soldiers in the war we know face with the world.  Walking in THE FEAR OF THE LORD is critical to our success.  There are many facets to walking in this manner.  Tithing is one of them. 

Repent of past failures and I strongly recommend moving “onward and upward” as my friend Paul often quotes.  I don’t personally need your money for FATHER takes good care of my family as HE as promised in HIS Word.  This is all about being a “wise virgin” when the Bridegroom comes.  Don’t get locked out of the feast given to HIS special treasures mentioned above. Jesus will be looking at the fruit you manifest in your life!

As I told good friends of mine, I believe this is the most important writing I have posted. The previous writings have built a foundation for those who have ears to hear and eyes to see so that the importance of the last writing can be fully embraced and honored!

FEAR OF THE LORD- Critical!

Isaiah wrote by THE SPIRIT in chapter 11:

1 And there shall come forth a Shoot out of the stock of Jesse [David’s father], and a Branch out of his roots shall grow and bear fruit.

2 And the Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon Him—the Spirit of Wisdom and Understanding, the Spirit of Counsel and Might, the Spirit of Knowledge and of the reverential and obedient FEAR OF THE LORD—

3 And shall make Him of quick understanding, and His delight shall be in the reverential and obedient FEAR OF THE LORD. And He shall not judge by the sight of His eyes, neither decide by the hearing of His ears;

4 But with righteousness and justice shall He judge the poor and decide with fairness for the meek, the poor, and the downtrodden of the earth; and He shall smite the earth and the oppressor with the rod of His mouth, and with the breath of His lips He shall slay the wicked.

5 And righteousness shall be the girdle of His waist and faithfulness the girdle of His loins.

When we are walking as mature Sons and Daughters, fully led by THE HOLY SPIRIT, we will not only acknowledge but walk in the seven Spirits as Jesus did.  They are:

The Spirit of the LORD

The Spirit of Wisdom

The Spirit of understanding

The Spirit of counsel

The Spirit of strength (might; miracles)

The Spirit of knowledge (revelation)

The Spirit of the FEAR OF THE LORD

Many believers fail to honor the seventh Spirit listed- The FEAR OF THE LORD.  Rather than presenting their best, they have made their relationship with FATHER casual and commonplace.  Yes, HE is Love but HE is also the Judge of the universe and we are to honor HIM as we seek to approach HIS Throne.   Would you go before a judge in shorts and tennis shoes?  Would you address the president of the U.S. with casual clothes on?  Doesn’t FATHER deserve greater respect and admiration than any of HIS created beings?

It is written by The Holy Spirit in Psalm 111:

10 Where can Wisdom be found? It is born in THE FEAR OF GOD.

Everyone who follows his ways

will never lack his living-understanding.

And the adoration of God will abide throughout eternity!

Proverbs  chapter 1:

7 The FEAR OF THE LORD is the beginning of knowledge;

Chapter 10:

27 The FEAR OF THE LORD prolongs life,

Chapter 14:

27 The FEAR OF THE LORD is a fountain of life,

That one may avoid the snares of death.

Chapter 19:

23 The FEAR OF THE LORD leads to life,

So that one may sleep satisfied, untouched by evil.

Chapter 15:

16 Better is a little with the FEAR OF THE LORD

Than great treasure and turmoil with it.

Isaiah also wrote in chapter 33:

5 The LORD is exalted, for HE dwells on high;

HE has filled Zion with justice and righteousness.

6 And HE will be the stability of your times,

A wealth of salvation, wisdom and knowledge;

The FEAR OF THE LORD is HIS treasure.

Without the FEAR OF GOD, can true Wisdom or knowledge be found?  As we are told in Psalm 111, it is born in the FEAR OF THE LORD.  Who else can bring forth healing in our lives?  Who else can dispatch angels for our protection?  Who else can provide us power and authority over the adversary and his demons?  Who else deserves the highest respect and reverence?  The seventh SPIRIT completes the other six.  Without THE FEAR OF THE LORD operating in our lives, we will not walk in the fullness of our destiny.  All seven were upon/in Jesus and we need all seven as well.

Jesus did and said nothing on His own.  He spoke in John chapter 17:

1 This is what Jesus prayed as He looked up into Heaven,

    “Father, the time has come.

    Unveil the glorious splendor of Your Son

    so that I will magnify YOUR glory!

2 YOU have already given me authority

    over all people so that I may give

    the gift of eternal life to all those that YOU have given to Me.

3 Eternal life means to know and experience YOU

    as the only true God,

    and to know and experience Jesus Christ,

    as the Son whom YOU have sent.

4 I have glorified YOU on the earth

    by faithfully doing everything YOU’VE told Me to do.

5 So My Father, restore Me back to the glory

    that we shared together when we were face-to-face

    before the universe was created.”

Jesus fully honored and glorified Our Heavenly Father in every aspect of His ministry on earth.  Should we have the same mindset?  THE FEAR OF THE LORD holds together the other Six Spirits.  Without IT, only The Spirit of THE LORD is in operation and this is generally what we see among believers today.

The adversary knows the power of THE FEAR OF THE LORD thus he wants us to disregard such an important and critical Truth.  In many congregations, people bring in drinks and popcorn into their sanctuaries as though they are planning to be entertained.  They can receive earplugs for the extremely loud music coming from the “stage”.  Where is the honor of THE FEAR OF THE LORD in all this?

FATHER could wipe out you and me in a nanosecond by HIS Power yet we have approached HIM as though HE was our “buddy”.  Let us repent of our past failures to fully honor HIM with the fear and reverence HE deserves.

When I was in the ten year span of praying before work in the mornings (1990-2000), FATHER once told me, “I AM the only ONE WHO is to be described as awesome so don’t use that word in any other manner.”  After that, every time I heard someone use that word to describe anything else, I cringed.  I would encourage you to make restricted use of that word as well!

When THE FEAR OF THE LORD is at the forefront of our consciousness, the other of the Seven Spirits will begin to operate in our lives.  We need to be “baptized” in THE FEAR OF THE LORD as we were with The Holy Spirit.

Isaiah experienced THE FEAR OF THE LORD in chapter 6 as he wrote by THE SPIRIT:

​1 In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and lifted up, and the train of His robe filled the temple. 2 Above it stood seraphim; each one had six wings: with two he covered his face, with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew. 3 And one cried to another and said:

​​​“Holy, Holy, Holy is the LORD of hosts;

​​The whole earth is full of His glory!”

​4 And the posts of the door were shaken by the voice of him who cried out, and the house was filled with smoke.

5 So I said:

​​​“Woe is me, for I am undone!

​​Because I am a man of unclean lips,

​​And I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips;

​​For my eyes have seen the King,

​​The LORD of hosts.”

​6 Then one of the seraphim flew to me, having in his hand a live coal which he had taken with the tongs from the altar. 7 And he touched my mouth with it, and said:

​​“Behold, this has touched your lips;

​​Your iniquity is taken away,

​​And your sin purged.”

THE FEAR OF THE LORD came upon Isaiah when he encountered the awesomeness of FATHER in the Throne Room.  Isaiah went from being comfortable in his calling as a major prophet to being totally unclean.  What would your response be when placed in the same situation?  Isaiah immediately repented as his uncleanness was revealed.

When the angel appeared behind me in Little Jack’s restaurant in Minneapolis, I could not move any part of my body.  I was as a dead man (Rev. 1:17).  I was in a Holy, reverential, awe of the Presence of THE LORD expressed by this angel. It is written in Psalm 34:

7 The angel of the LORD encamps around those who FEAR HIM,

And rescues them.

Can I casually approach the Throne?  Absolutely not!  Yes, FATHER is full of grace and Love but HE is also to be honored in HIS other expressions, most of all we should treat HIM with absolute respect and reverence as THE ALMIGHTY.  Without this revelation of THE FEAR OF THE LORD, we are actually displaying unbelief.  Think about it.

In Acts chapter 5, it is recorded by THE SPIRIT:

5 The moment Ananias heard those words, he fell over dead. Everyone was terrified when they heard what had happened. 6 Some young men came in and removed the body and buried him.

7 Three hours later, his wife came into the room, with no clue what had happened to her husband.

8 Peter said to her, “Tell me, were the two of you paid this amount for the sale of your land?”

Sapphira said, “Yes, that’s how much it was.”

9 Peter told her, “Why have you agreed together to test the Spirit of the Lord? I hear the footsteps of those who buried your husband at the door—they’re coming here to bury you too!”

10 At that moment she dropped dead at Peter’s feet.

When the young men came in, she was already dead, so they carried her out and buried her next to her husband. 11 The entire church was seized with a powerful sense of the FEAR OF GOD, which came over all who heard what had happened.

12 The apostles performed many signs, wonders, and miracles among the people. 13 And the believers were wonderfully united as they met regularly in the temple courts in the area known as Solomon’s Porch. No one dared harm them, for everyone held them in high regard.

Today, is there any “fear” of believers by those in positions of authority?  No, they are dictating to believers to wear masks and stay separated.  It is clear that we need the FEAR OF THE LORD to be restored and operational in the lives in us as believers.  When that happens, we will be held in high regard and no one will dictate our movements.  No one will lie to us without ramification.

Wisdom wrote in Proverbs chapter 2:

1 My son, if you will receive My Words

And treasure My commandments within you,

2 Make your ear attentive to Wisdom,

Incline your heart to understanding;

3 For if you cry for discernment,

Lift your voice for understanding;

4 If you seek her as silver

And search for her as for hidden treasures;

5 Then you will discern the FEAR OF THE LORD

And discover the knowledge of God.

Chapter 8:

13 “The FEAR OF THE LORD is to hate evil;

Pride and arrogance and the evil way

And the perverted mouth, I hate.”

When the believers become united and FEAR THE LORD again, the world will fear the believers and things will change for the better.  Evil will no longer prevail or be tolerated.

Spiritual warfare is required by those who fully understand the requirements of fulfilling their purpose and destiny.  It was required of Jesus, Paul, Peter, and others.  How many times did Jesus deal with demons and men who were motivated by demonic forces?  The spirits of darkness are still around and their mission is to keep each of us from fulfilling FATHER’S Divine Intent. 

The spirit of death tried to attach itself to me twice during funerals in the past.  I immediately prayed in THE SPIRIT for several minutes before it departed.  Life was being sucked out of me both times and I knew if I didn’t immediately deal with it, I would have died right there on the spot during the funeral.  I wasn’t afraid but instead was fully committed to battling this demonic spirit.  I only share this to emphasize the importance of relying on The Holy Spirit in every challenge we face.  I wasn’t looking for a fight, it found me.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit In 2^nd Corinthians chapter 10:

2 Now I plead with you that when I come, don’t force me to take a hard line with you (which I’m willing to do) by daring to confront those who mistakenly believe that we are living by the standards of the world, not by the Spirit’s Wisdom and power. 3–4 For although we live in the natural realm, we don’t wage a military campaign employing human weapons, using manipulation to achieve our aims. Instead, our spiritual weapons are energized with Divine power to effectively dismantle the defenses behind which people hide.

Paul was willing to take a hard line with those people who use manipulation to achieve their agendas.  Are you?  This is where it is critical for us to walk in THE SPIRIT’S Wisdom when dealing with those given over to manipulation and control.  We must not allow ourselves to submit to that demonic influence and remain silent.  Can one really fellowship with such a person?  Their defenses must be exposed and dismantled.  This is one aspect of spiritual warfare.

5 We can demolish every deceptive fantasy that opposes God and break through every arrogant attitude that is raised up in defiance of the True Knowledge of God. We capture, like prisoners of war, every thought and insist that it bow in obedience to the Anointed One. 6 Since we are armed with such dynamic weaponry, we stand ready to punish any trace of rebellion, as soon as you choose complete obedience.

Deceptive fantasies are often given to us in dreams and some of them originate from demonic forces.  Others originate through the carnal man.  Either way, we are to capture and demolish them by choosing to walk in complete obedience to The Word.  We must immediately cast down those thoughts, dreams, and fantasies and not allow them to develop within us.  Talking about them only further empowers them and we must not allow such thoughts to be sown into our hearts and produce any bad fruit.

As we keep the True Knowledge of GOD before us at all times, we have what Paul calls the dynamic weaponry to punish any and every trace (remains, a mark, a spot, an impression) of rebellion.  As we walk in Holiness, we are pure and must protect that purity by not allowing the adversary to insert any impure thought or fantasy into our hearts or minds.  We must cast down every vain imagination… immediately.  This is the essence of complete obedience to THE SPIRIT and The Word as mature Sons and Daughters.

Demons are assigned to watch us and focus on our words, actions, responses to situations, and other such indications of what we are entertaining.  If a man or woman is flirtatious then that is the area the demon will pursue to promote rebellion.  If one seeks to exalt himself in the area of intelligence, then that is the area of weakness and focus. 

When the devil was tempting Jesus, he was careful to watch Jesus’ responses for he was hoping to exploit a weakness.  The adversary will do the same concerning us.  Some may think I am overemphasizing the need to focus on spiritual warfare.  I think not.  As we move toward full maturity, the demons become more desperate to thwart our full destiny.

In Matthew chapter 12, Jesus addressed spiritual warfare with the kingdom of satan:

22 Then a man was brought before Jesus who had a demon spirit that made him both blind and unable to speak. Jesus healed him instantly, and he could see and talk again! 23 The crowds went wild with amazement as they witnessed this miracle. And they kept saying to one another, “Could this man be the Messiah?”

24 But when the Pharisees overheard what the people were saying about the miracle, they said, “He casts out demons by the power of Satan, the prince of demons!”

25 Now, Jesus supernaturally perceived their thoughts and motives, so He confronted them by telling them this parable:

“Any kingdom that fights against itself will end up in ruins. And any family or community splintered by strife will fall apart. 26 So if Satan casts out Satan, he is making war on himself. How then could his kingdom survive? 27 So if Satan empowers Me to cast out demons, who empowers your exorcists to cast them out? Go ask them, for what they do proves you’re wrong in your accusations. 28 On the other hand, if I drive out demons by the power of the Spirit of God, then the end of Satan’s kingdom has come! 29 Who would dare enter the house of a mighty man and steal his property? First he must be overpowered and tied up by one who is stronger than he. Then his entire house can be plundered and every possession stolen.

30 “So join with Me, for if you’re not on My side you are against Me. And if you refuse to help Me gather the spoils, you are making things worse. 31 This is why I warn you, for God will forgive people for every sin and blasphemy they have committed except one. There is no forgiveness for the sin of blasphemy against the Holy Spirit. 32 If anyone speaks evil of Me, the Son of Man, he can be forgiven; but if anyone contemptuously speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will never be forgiven, now or ever!”

Jesus made it abundantly clear that there are two kingdoms at hand and He also decisively warned everyone that they are either with Him or they are against Him.  There are no exceptions.  We are not to sit on the sidelines and do nothing.  The Holy Spirit has been given to us to direct us into all aspects of our Divine destiny so let us fully embrace the Words of Jesus and no longer allow the kingdom of darkness to have any empowerment or expansion in our area of influence.

Paul had to deal with a man who was in the congregation and was in sin.  The man had to be rebuked for his sin and he responded through repentance.  Once he repented the congregation needed to forgive him and no longer allow unforgiveness to cause separation.  Spiritual warfare it not restricted to the unsaved but includes those believers who are being deceived by the adversary’s cunning devices and schemes.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in 2 Corinthians chapter 2:

11 so that we would not be exploited by the adversary, Satan, for we know his clever schemes.

The adversary will use unforgiveness as a wedge to keep us from walking in unity.  Moses wrote by THE SPIRIT in Leviticus chapter 17:

15 ‘You shall do no injustice in judgment. You shall not be partial to the poor, nor honor the person of the mighty. In righteousness you shall judge your neighbor. 16 You shall not go about as a talebearer among your people; nor shall you take a stand against the life of your neighbor: I am the LORD.

17 ‘You shall not hate your brother in your heart. You shall surely rebuke your neighbor, and not bear sin because of him. 18 You shall not take vengeance, nor bear any grudge against the children of your people, but you shall love your neighbor as yourself: I am the LORD.”

Paul was well aware of the above passage and he reaffirmed FATHER’S Divine Intent toward the brother who strayed from the Word.  We must always be in the restoration business rather than judging others ourselves. 

We are in the latter days referred to in the Book of Daniel where The Holy Spirit revealed in chapter 8:

​23 ​​“And in the latter time of their kingdom,

​​When the transgressors have reached their fullness,

​​A king shall arise,

​​Having fierce features,

​​Who understands sinister schemes.

24 ​​His power shall be mighty, but not by his own power;

​​He shall destroy fearfully,

​​And shall prosper and thrive;

​​He shall destroy the mighty, and also the Holy people.

​

25 ​​“Through his cunning

​​He shall cause deceit to prosper under his rule;

​​And he shall exalt himself in his heart.

​​He shall destroy many in their prosperity.

​​He shall even rise against the Prince of princes;

​​But he shall be broken without human means.

​

26 ​​“And the vision of the evenings and mornings

​​Which was told is true;

​​Therefore seal up the vision,

​​For it refers to many days in the future.”

We see the rise of the cunningness of the adversary in these days.  Jesus referred to this time in Mark 13 when He spoke the following:

14 “When you witness what Daniel prophesied, ‘the disgusting destroyer,’ standing where it must not be[Let the reader learn what it means]”

We must not disregard or underestimate the cunningness of the devil as we walk out our lives.  If we fail to pay attention to the warnings of Jesus, we will not walk in full victory.

Jesus spoke the above when He was counseling the disciples earlier in this chapter:

3 Later, while Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives, overlooking the temple, his disciples, Peter, Jacob, John, and Andrew, came to Him privately where He was sitting and said, 4 “Tell us, when will these things happen? And what supernatural sign should we expect to signal Your coming and the completion of this age?”

5 Jesus answered, “At that time deception will run rampant. So beware that you’re not fooled! 6 For many will appear on the scene claiming my authority or saying about themselves, ‘I am God’s Anointed,’ and they will lead many astray. 7 You will hear rumors of wars nearby, with more rumors of wars to come. Make sure that you are not thrown into a panic or give in to your fears, for these things are destined to happen. Prepare for it, but still the end is not yet. 8 For nations will go to war against each other and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be terrible earthquakes in place after place—seismic events of epic proportion. And there will be famines and riots. This is how the first contractions and birth pains of the new age will begin.”

9 “Be on your guard! For they will repeatedly hand you over to the ruling councils, and you will be beaten in public gatherings. And you will stand trial before kings and high-ranking governmental leaders as an opportunity to testify to them on My behalf. 10 But prior to the end of the age, the hope of the Gospel must first be preached to all nations.

11 “So when they put you under arrest and hand you over for trial, don’t even give one thought about what you will say. Simply speak what the Holy Spirit gives you at that very moment. And realize that it won’t be you speaking but the Holy Spirit repeatedly speaking through you.”

We must heed the Words of Jesus:  Be prepared, be on guard, and don’t be fooled.  These writings focused on spiritual warfare are given to us by The Holy Spirit as a confirmation of what Jesus is saying concerning the time we are now in.  The swamp has been drained and the spirit of deception has been exposed.  What happens when such exposure occurs?  Jesus revealed it in the above passage.  Fear not!  Be led by The Holy Spirit and He will navigate you through this time in history.  The spirit of deception is no match for The Holy Spirit!

We must understand that there will be immature believers who aren’t equipped to deal with such deception.  As stated previously, deception in its purest form is when a person doesn’t know he or she is deceived.  The mature Sons and Daughters will expose such deception as led by The Holy Spirit.  We must rebuke the person in Agape Love and forgive him or her when he or she responds through repentance.  We are to promote unity when given the opportunity.

As stated in Psalm 91, those of us who walk in Agape Love will always be shielded from harm.  This is why I believe it is imperative to walk in the fullness of revelation concerning Agape Love.  Paul knew this when he wrote of the preeminence of Agape Love in 1^st Corinthians chapter 13.  Jesus expressed the importance of Love in John chapter 14:

23 Jesus replied, “Loving Me empowers you to obey My Word. And My Father will Love you so deeply that We will come to you and make you Our dwelling place. 24 But those who don’t Love Me will not obey My Words. The Father did not send Me to speak My own revelation, but the Words of my Father.”

We will be fully prepared to deal with the cunning devices and schemes of the adversary as we walk fully in Agape Love!

In Genesis chapter 6, FATHER looked down on the earth:

11 Now the earth was corrupt in the sight of God, and the earth was filled with violence. 12 God looked on the earth, and behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted their way upon the earth.

What is corruption?  First of all, it has moved away from FATHER’S Divine Intent.  It is the act of corrupting, or state of being corrupt or putrid; the destruction of the natural form of bodies, by the separation of the component parts, or by disorganization, in the process of putrefaction (bodies are disorganized and dissolved, or reduced to their original separate elements). 

Our bodies are designed to live forever but corruption caused our bodies to begin dying, moving toward death and destruction.  Mankind accepted corruption through the fallen ones who promoted genetic modification hence the giants in the land.  Animals were genetically modified as well. 

Noah and his family remained pure and qualified to be saved from the flood.  Those animals which were not modified submitted to THE SPIRIT and entered the ark.  The flood was intended to eradicate the exceptions of FATHER’S Divine Intent. 

Who do you think promoted alteration to the physical bodies?  Yes, the adversary who thought he could create a better kingdom.  Wrong!  The giants temporarily prevailed but FATHER later raised up a nation to remove the giants from The Promised Land.  David led the charge.

Each of us deals with our own “giants” but FATHER has given us the power and authority through Jesus Christ to overcome those “giants”.  If the devil did not have power, there would not have been a forty day period of testing in the wilderness.  You and I continue to deal with corrupted men and women who have temporary authority in the current world system.  You and I have a role to play in spiritual warfare.

To inherit means to possess; to enjoy; to take as a possession, by gift or Divine appropriation; as, to inherit everlasting life; to inherit the promises.  We are to walk out our lives with the benefits of inheritance from Our Heavenly Father.  There is no intended scarcity or lack in the inheritance.  The devil and his demons know this and continuously attempt to keep our mindsets away from this reality.  The result of this lower mindset is one of scarcity and constant lack.  If this doesn’t work, they move you toward greed and a quest for excessive resources.  They want to separate us from FATHER’S Divine Intent and our destiny and keep our focus on the temporary.  The spirit of deception cannot impact those who walk in Spiritual maturity.  Psalm 91 mentions the level of maturity I refer to:

14 For here is what the Lord has spoken to me:

“Because you have delighted in ME as MY great Lover,

I will greatly protect you.

I will set you in a high place, safe and secure before MY Face.

15 I will answer your cry for help every time you pray,

and you will find and feel MY Presence

even in your time of pressure and trouble.

I will be your glorious hero and give you a feast.

16 You will be satisfied with a full life and with all that I do for you.

For you will enjoy the fullness of MY Salvation (Jeshua)!”

Those of us who Love GOD with all our hearts and souls will walk in the above promises.  We will be victorious over the enemy in his every attempt to distract us from our Divine destiny.  In the end, it is all about Agape Love!

Whether it be day or night, FATHER’S massive Arms are wrapped around us, protecting us.

5 You will never worry about an attack of demonic forces at night

nor have to fear a spirit of darkness coming against you.

6 Don’t fear a thing!

Whether by night or by day, demonic danger will not trouble you,

nor will the powers of evil launched against you.

FATHER is accessible 24 hours a day.  Jesus knew this as He prayed at night to receive His daily directives.  Jesus spoke in John chapter 14:

10 Don’t you believe that the Father is living in Me and that I am living in the Father? Even My words are not My own but come from My Father, for HE lives in Me and performs HIS miracles of power through Me. 11 Believe that I live as One with My Father and that My Father lives as One with Me—or at least, believe because of the mighty miracles I have done.

12 “I tell you this timeless Truth: The person who follows Me in faith, believing in Me, will do the same mighty miracles that I do—even greater miracles than these because I go to be with My Father! 13 For I will do whatever you ask Me to do when you ask Me in My Name. And that is how the Son will show what the Father is really like and bring glory to HIM. 14 Ask Me anything in My Name, and I will do it for you!”

When we take on the mindset expressed to us through these Words of Jesus, we will overcome any attempt by the adversary to divert us away from those mighty miracles we are meant to do in Jesus’ Name.  We will give Jesus credit for those miracles and lead others to Christ and then toward maturity. 

No corruption will be found among us for we are pure and without blemish for The Word has cleansed us from all unrighteousness.  We have no interest in exalting ourselves but instead we exalt the Name of Jesus above every name on earth and in Heaven.  The adversary and his demons are well aware of the power and authority associated with His Name!  This is why spiritual warfare continues.  The adversary has an insatiable quest to be exalted above The Name of Jesus.  It is not going to happen!

FATHER has not lowered HIS Standards to accommodate changes in “socially acceptable” standards which are ever-changing.

Read the following closely and see if it doesn’t apply to the current environment we find ourselves in.  Isaiah recorded in chapter 1:

1 Here is the vision that Isaiah, the son of Amoz, received by Divine revelation concerning what was going to happen to Judah and Jerusalem during the times of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah.

2 Listen, O heavens! Hear, O earth!

    For the Lord Yahweh has spoken:

    “I tenderly nurtured children and made them great,

    but they have rebelled against me!

3 Even a dumb ox instinctively knows its owner

    and the stubborn mule knows the hand that feeds him,

    but Israel does not know me

    nor do my people understand.”

4 Oh, how this nation keeps sinning!

    See them dragging the heavy burden of their guilt!

    They are corrupt children, descendants of evildoers.

    They have turned their backs on the Lord God

    and despised the Holy One of Israel!

    They have cut themselves off from the help of God!

5 Why would you seek to be injured further?

    Why would you stubbornly continue in your rebellion?

    Your whole head is sick,

    and your heart and your will are weak and faint.

6 You are corrupt from the bottom of your feet

    to the top of your head. There is no integrity—

    nothing but bruises, putrefying sores, and raw open wounds!

    They have not been drained or bandaged or soothed with oil.

7 Your country is devastated

    and your cities burned to the ground;

    foreigners plunder your crops before your eyes—

    with nothing but devastation and destruction in their wake!

8 And the daughter of Zion is left as helpless as

    a deserted shack in a vineyard or

    like a flimsy shelter in a field of cucumbers—

    in every way like a city besieged!

9 If the Lord of Angel Armies had not left us survivors,

    our fate would have been the same as Sodom and Gomorrah!

10 Hear the word of Yahweh:

    “You leaders of Sodom, heed the correction of our God!

    People of Gomorrah, you’d better listen to his rebuke.”

Justice will be imparted and FATHER will not be moved by hypocritical worship or praise.  The devil and his demons infiltrated the nation of Israel, especially Sodom and Gomorrah.  FATHER didn’t lower HIS standards then and HE will not lower them today. 

As we are led by The Holy Spirit, we will be empowered to minister to those who have gone astray.  We must rely on The Holy Spirit to minister life to those who have succumbed to the agenda of spiritual darkness.

Isaiah further recorded in chapter 3:

8 Jerusalem has stumbled and Judah has fallen

    because their words and their works

    are defiant before the Face of the Lord’s glorious Presence.

9 The look on their impudent faces says it all,

    for they publicly flaunt their sin like Sodom,

    not even trying to hide it.

    Woe to their souls, for they invite

    disaster upon themselves.

10 Yet reassure the righteous; it will go well with them!

    They will fully enjoy the reward of their deeds.

11 But woe to the guilty,

    for they will get fully what they deserve!

12 My people, mockers exploit you

    and creditors rule over you.

    My people, your leaders mislead you

    and confuse you with their guidance.

History is definitely repeating itself as the devil’s toolbox is limited in nature.  Sin is flaunted throughout the media.  Laws are being written to protect “acts of sin” which were once illegal.  Leaders have taken on the persona of being entitled to control and manipulate the masses in order to promote their own agendas.

Yes we are to pray for the leaders but that does not include condoning any actions apart from Holiness.  If they need to repent, then we need to pray for their repentance.  If they are blinded, we need to pray that their eyes be opened to the Divine Intent and Standards of FATHER.  FATHER is exposing sin in the land and has given the various countries time to repent before HIS judgment comes forth in full force.

13 Yahweh is taking HIS rightful place in Court;

    HE is rising to judge his people.

14 Yahweh comes to issue the guilty verdict

    of the elders and leaders of HIS people, saying:

    “You are the ones who have ruined the nation!

    Your houses are full of what you’ve stolen from the poor!

15 What gives you the right to crush MY people

    by shoving the faces of the poor into the dirt?”

    Yahweh, the Sovereign One, Commander of Angel Armies,

    has spoken.

We don’t need to evoke judgment by taking lawless actions ourselves.  FATHER will evoke righteous judgment using the Angel Armies who are awaiting HIS Word to be unleashed.  Guess who will lead them?  The King of Kings, The Mighty Warrior with fire in HIS Eyes!  Those of us who are in the Secret Place will observe and be protected from the judgment as recorded in Psalm 91 by THE SPIRIT:

7 Even in a time of disaster, with thousands and thousands being killed,

you will remain unscathed and unharmed.

8 you will be a spectator as the wicked perish in judgment,

for they will be paid back for what they have done!

9–10 When we live our lives within the shadow of God Most High,

our secret hiding place, we will always be shielded from harm.

How then could evil prevail against us or disease infect us?

11 God sends angels with special orders to protect you wherever you go,

defending you from all harm.

12 If you walk into a trap, they’ll be there for you

and keep you from stumbling.

13 You’ll even walk unharmed among the fiercest powers of darkness,[h]

trampling every one of them beneath your feet!

By the way, FATHER has never supported abortion and HE never will!  Neither should we!
