We have a responsibility to put on the new man and Paul describes this new man in the 3rd chapter of Colossians:

12 Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put on tender mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, longsuffering; 

13 bearing with one another, and forgiving one another, if anyone has a complaint against another; even as Christ forgave you, so you also must do. 

14 But above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfection. 

15 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful. 

16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. 

17 And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him.

Above all, put on Love.  This has been the focus FATHER has presented to those with ears to hear and eyes to see.  If you don’t pursue the revelation of Love, how can you expect to walk fully and completely in the other attributes mentioned?  Paul understood this reality as the Holy Spirit gave him these words to write.  He came to realize this at his own conversion and thus he knew firsthand what Love was willing to bear.  

A bonding agent is one that causes other things to hold together when pressure is applied.  Only under pressure can you appreciate the strength of a bonding agent.  Make no mistake pressure is going to come and you will then find out where people truly stand for their hearts will be revealed.

Renew your mind by focusing on Love and you will begin to walk in the other attributes as well.

Paul wrote in Colossians chapter 3:

1 If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God. 

2 Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth.

Those who are truly called to be a part of the remnant are seeking those things which are above and this is were the power and authority originate from.  Love will determine who is to be include for those who truly have a heart for mankind will be called upon to minister and serve mankind but carnal Christians will miss the boat.

3 For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. 

4 When Christ who is our life appears, then you also will appear with Him in glory.

His appearance will soon be revealed to all the earth along with His Saints, the remnant who are also known as the Sons of GOD.  Those who did not make the cut will realize their error when His Light shines on their lives and they look back at their innermost beliefs.  They will have tears in their eyes when they realize the missed opportunities they were presented with but instead chose different paths which satisfied their sourish ambitions.  Paul mentions some of these fleshly desires:

5 Therefore put to death your members which are on the earth: fornication, uncleanness, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry,

7 in which you yourselves once walked when you lived in them.

8 But now you yourselves are to put off all these: anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy language out of your mouth. 

9 Do not lie to one another, since you have put off the old man with his deeds,

What is the result in people walking according to the flesh?

6 Because of these things the wrath of God is coming upon the sons of disobedience.

HIS wrath will be a righteous judgment against the fleshly, worldly desires and acts of mankind.  Men will see the corrective side of Love and will realize how their deeds exploited others according to their own lusts.  It will not be a pretty sight in the natural and it will be painful to many but correction is required to reconcile men back to FATHER.  They must see their ways and acknowledge them rather than attempting to rationalize their actions away.  Each one of us is accountable and cannot use someone else as the scapegoat for such actions.

Many have been given the opportunity to walk in Love and instead have pursued other paths that tickle their soul.  They have attempted to exalt themselves above others by claiming some elite revelation or some form of entitled position.  By doing so they simply alienate those around them.  There is plenty of room in Heaven for everyone and even the lowliest person on earth is important to FATHER for HE created that person as well.

Last night I heard a man exclaim that he loved his dog more than people.  How sad!  Jesus clearly found people to be most important in His ministry  We should too.

Paul wrote in 1 Corinthians chapter 2:

1 And I, brethren, when I came to you, did not come with excellence of speech or of wisdom declaring to you the testimony of God. 

2 For I determined not to know anything among you except Jesus Christ and Him crucified. 

3 I was with you in weakness, in fear, and in much trembling. 

4 And my speech and my preaching were not with persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, 

5 that your faith should not be in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.

What will men listen to if the power of FATHER is not present to confirm by observable signs?  We must go beyond the acceptable to the perfect and mature walk in FATHER’S power.  But how?  It must be based on Love and faith that worketh by Love.  If we are to tap into FATHER’S power we must be fully aligned with HIS Character and we cannot omit even our enemies from being healed.

Is your bias against certain groups and/or cultures hindering you from receiving HIS fullness?  You must consider the fact that FATHER created every creature on earth and that every creature has a function to fulfill.  We are quick to acknowledge the need for certain creatures whose function makes our lives more enjoyable.  But we must realize that in HIS Wisdom, all creatures were created.  If you try to exalt yourself above HIS Plan you will be sadden and likely corrected at some point.  You may hinder your progress or you may suffer some malady and wonder how it could happen to you.

There is much hatred and anger today around the world.  Everyone is against everyone else.  Some groups claim superiority over others yet not one person can add to his or her height.  What a sad commentary about the perverseness found around the globe.  Men have no power over the length of their days yet they try every potion known to man in a feeble attempt to circumvent FATHER’S plan.

HIS Gospel will come forth in demonstration of the Spirit and of power by those who are found to be vessels of honor and who have been perfected in HIS Love for mankind.  Jesus had compassion on the multitudes who were not yet saved by HIS Blood yet that did not prevent Him from healing the sick and casting out devils.  We should walk in the same Love Jesus displayed.  Anything less will not be acceptable in the Age at hand.  Let the power come forth but only through those who will not misuse it for personal, unrighteous gain.

I marvel how FATHER has used me to write over 1,000 blogs over the last few years, not for my sake but yours.  HE compels me to share what is being revealed by HIS Spirit and providing you another facet of HIS wonderful Love for you to benefit if even in some small way.  There have been those who have sought some quick and temporary Spiritual high but these writings are intended to direct us all into full maturity in Christ.  Paul said it like this in Colossians chapter 2:

1 For I want you to know what a great conflict I have for you and those in Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face in the flesh, 

2 that their hearts may be encouraged, being knit together in love, and attaining to all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the knowledge of the mystery of God, both of the Father andfn of Christ, 

3 in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.

Why did Paul have such great conflict?

4 Now this I say lest anyone should deceive you with persuasive words.

We are living in exciting times and FATHER will once again show HIMSELF mighty in the lives of HIS vessels of honor prepared for such a time as this.  The world has moved away from the righteousness found in being aligned with FATHER and HIS ways.  They have been left to their own devices and deception confining the fact that worldly wisdom has no sustainable future attached to it.  FATHER’S great Love and Mercy will pull the inhabitants of this earth out of the muck and mire that it has once again descended towards.

The mysteries have been hidden to the initiated for the purpose of keeping those mysteries pure and out of the hands of the wicked.  Those mysteries have been placed with those who are no longer moved or subjecting themselves to the devices of the devil for his power is of none effect.

Let not opinions or persuasive words of intellectuals mislead you toward the path of destruction but let HIS Light shine and reveal the narrow path of THE WAY, THE TRUTH, and THE LIFE Jesus presented to us all.  Only by Love and faith working with it will we be able to remain on that narrow path.  The world will attempt to redirect our path toward destruction but by HIS SPIRIT will we be able to discern the times, the intents, and the deceptions of the enemy.  Let us not allow mistakes of the past to plague us as we move forward.  Those mistakes are intended to instruct us in righteousness by showing us what not to do or be led to believe.

Let us move on to the high calling given to us by our Lord Jesus Christ.

I purpose not to look specifically at upcoming dates but there are exceptions when FATHER deems it necessary to direct my focus by extraordinary events.  In the last seven days my wife, son, and daughter separately heard their names spoken from the Spiritual realm.  Four days ago I had a dream where I exclaimed 4-25 which happens to be the 3rd day of Passover this year.  In the Hebrew calendar it is 7/17.  This morning after my morning workout, the alarm unexpectedly sounded at 7:17 for several minutes.

The 17th day of the 7th month is known as the day of Resurrection.  The first mention of this date was in the days of Noah:

Gen 8:1 Then God remembered Noah, and every living thing, and all the animals that were with him in the ark. And God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters subsided. 

2 The fountains of the deep and the windows of heaven were also stopped, and the rain from heaven was restrained. 

3 And the waters receded continually from the earth. At the end of the hundred and fifty days the waters decreased. 

4 Then the ark rested in the seventh month, the seventeenth day of the month, on the mountains of Ararat.

In Joshua chapter 5, they children of Israel ate of the Promised Land without the manna on this day:

10 Now the children of Israel camped in Gilgal, and kept the Passover on the fourteenth day of the month at twilight on the plains of Jericho. 

11 And they ate of the produce of the land on the day after the Passover, unleavened bread and parched grain, on the very same day. 

12 Then the manna ceased on the day after they had eaten the produce of the land; and the children of Israel no longer had manna, but they ate the food of the land of Canaan that year.

It is reckoned that Esther approached the king after a 3 day fast on this day:

4:16 “Go, gather all the Jews who are present in Shushan, and fast for me; neither eat nor drink for three days, night or day. My maids and I will fast likewise. And so I will go to the king, which is against the law; and if I perish, I perish!”

Clearly, she was “all in”.

The most important event was the resurrection of Jesus on this date and Luke chapter 24 records:

The alarm sounded 76 days from 4/25 inclusively as of the date of this writing (not the posting date).  Is this intended for everyone or specific to a few?  It is not for me to say.  When such events happen as shared above, we must not disregard them.  FATHER knows who reads these writings and knows that I will share such events when they are connected together by clear Spiritual occurrences.  My son was so taken back that he knew he must call me immediately to share what he heard.  He was at work and in an interior stairwell.  Two other men heard the voice that called his name but no physical person was in the area.  

It is my responsibility to share what FATHER is presenting before us.  Will there be a supernatural event on April 25th this year?  That is up to FATHER.  If we continue to see increased Spiritual activity leading up to this date then we will not be caught unaware as it approaches.

In the early 1980’s I became familiar with and studied the Greek word sozo.  It means: saved, healed, made whole and is found in the following (as well as many other verses):

Matthew 9:21  For she said to herself, “If only I may touch His garment, I shall be made well (sozo).”

John 10:9  I am the door. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved (sozo), and will go in and out and find pasture.

Being healed by FATHER takes no more faith or believing than receiving salvation from HIM yet man’s traditions, opinions, and unbelief have entered in and directed those who need healing in their body to have faith in the current healthcare system rather than Life-giving Words from FATHER. Is one more difficult than the other for FATHER to accomplish?

Jesus healed the sick and ministered salvation to all who would receive Him.  He was the Passover lamb and we take communion to remind us of not only His Blood but also His Body.  We take the sacraments in the order of bread first and then wine.  Why the bread first?  It represents His body which took on sickness and disease… by His stripes we are healed.  When we consume His body, we are to accept His health and healing power.  The Blood is meant to protect us from “death” but the body is meant for us to walk healthy just as the children of Israel were healthy as they left Egypt.

We must not separate healing from salvation just like we must not only take one of the sacraments for both are necessary to fully embrace what He did for us.

Isaiah 53:5  But He was wounded for our transgressions,
He was bruised for our iniquities;
The chastisement for our peace was upon Him,
And by His stripes we are healed.

People who are called to the higher calling of serving all of mankind need a break from time to time.  Jesus understood the challenge of constant demands by people in need.  In Mark chapter 6 we find Jesus encouraging a time of rest:

30 The apostles *gathered together with Jesus; and they reported to Him all that they had done and taught. 

31 And He *said to them, “Come away by yourselves to a secluded place and rest a while.” (For there were many people coming and going, and they did not even have time to eat.) 

32 They went away in the boat to a secluded place by themselves.

Though it was not for an extended time, Jesus was sensitive to the needs of the brethren.  We too should be sensitive to the need of “recreating” when you have been under pressure.  FATHER designated the seventh day as a day of rest for physiological and psychological recovery.  We need to understand that FATHER knows best and you cannot continuously work, minister, study, or some other constant activity without a time of recovery.  Love provides for a break from the action, embrace and enjoy it.

In Luke chapter 4, Jesus made a bold statement:

Jesus quoted Isaiah 61:
