My living God, Elohim.

“On a lofty and high mountain You have set your bed; Even there you went up To offer sacrifice. Also behind the doors and their posts You have set up your remembrance; For you have uncovered yourself to those other than Me, And have gone up to them; You have enlarged your bed And made a covenant with them; You have loved their bed, Where you saw their nudity. You went to the king with ointment, And increased your perfumes; You sent your messengers far off, And even descended to Sheol. You are wearied in the length of your way; Yet you did not say, ‘There is no hope.’ You have found the life of your hand; Therefore you were not grieved. “And of whom have you been afraid, or feared, That you have lied And not remembered Me, Nor taken it to your heart? Is it not because I have held My peace from of old That you do not fear Me? I will declare your righteousness And your works, For they will not profit you. When you cry out, Let your collection of idols deliver you. But the wind will carry them all away, A breath will take them. But he who puts his trust in Me shall possess the land, And shall inherit My holy mountain.” And one shall say, “Heap it up! Heap it up! Prepare the way, Take the stumbling block out of the way of My people.” For thus says the High and Lofty One Who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy: “I dwell in the high and holy place, With him who has a contrite and humble spirit, To revive the spirit of the humble, And to revive the heart of the contrite ones. For I will not contend forever, Nor will I always be angry; For the spirit would fail before Me, And the souls which I have made. For the iniquity of his covetousness I was angry and struck him; I hid and was angry, And he went on backsliding in the way of his heart. I have seen his ways, and will heal him; I will also lead him, And restore comforts to him And to his mourners. “I create the fruit of the lips: Peace, peace to him who is far off and to him who is near,” Says the LORD, “And I will heal him.” But the wicked are like the troubled sea, When it cannot rest, Whose waters cast up mire and dirt. “ There is no peace,” Says my God, “for the wicked.””

Creating idols in the heart is one terrible sin that those who call themselves by Gods name have overlooked, if you have something you can identify as you biggest fear you have an idol in your heart...

 (that thing which you fear greater than you believe God can overcome for you and let's face it, short of the masks we display and acts we so well perform in church, some of our souls know very well that our true lifestyles can't possibly warrant the full protection of God.

The troubles we faced, it's not that He isn't able, it's that our standards of faith were broken vessels unable to hold the presence of God, and this condition is caused by sin alive and well in our lives. With that said, it is not grace but hell to continue in sin of any kind diligently believing that Sunday confession is your key to heaven, it's a lie from the pit of hell, Elohim was not making a suggestion when He said "your sins have been forgiven, go forth and sin no more," yes our salvation is not self effort but the incredible love of God. But life goes on past the cross, a life where He has commanded emphatically that we should live righteous and blameless with His help, and come to Him and before Him not for carnal ambitions but for Kingdom purpose, selfless, broken and surrendered, true and humble, a sacrificial surrender instead an opportunistic one.)

Excuses is the people called by God's biggest downfall, His seed is corrupted by a mighty lie that their circumstances are greater than God and need carnal intervention instigated by themselves because due to sin on their behalf and a devil who took advantage of us living on unrighteousness territory as lukewarm Christians we came to believe that the power of heaven cannot be powerful in our situation.

We are who we are not because of God not being able, oh my word He is able, our problem wasn't Him, our problem was not remembering He is principled.  We have been over preached to about how He blesses in abundance without an even bigger focus on His prerequisites, His principles and His purpose.  By virtue of carnal desires we have missed it all together treating heaven like a magic wand to spit out our every desire at every whim and daring to sulk when we don't get our way with an ALMIGHTY GOD, goodness what on earth gave us the idea we are in charge and He must obey us. He isn't moved by man, He is God.  Preachers forgot to tell us who He is when He gets angry and what coming to Him is really about, here are some scriptures to consider...

““If I were hungry, I would not tell you; For the world is Mine, and all its fullness. Will I eat the flesh of bulls, Or drink the blood of goats? Offer to God thanksgiving, And pay your vows to the Most High. Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you shall glorify Me.” But to the wicked God says: “What right have you to declare My statutes, Or take My covenant in your mouth, Seeing you hate instruction And cast My words behind you?  When you saw a thief, you consented with him, And have been a partaker with adulterers. You give your mouth to evil, And your tongue frames deceit. You sit and speak against your brother; You slander your own mother’s son. These things you have done, and I kept silent; You thought that I was altogether like you; But I will rebuke you, And set them in order before your eyes. “Now consider this, you who forget God, Lest I tear you in pieces, And there be none to deliver: Whoever offers praise glorifies Me; And to him who orders his conduct aright I will show the salvation of God.””

‭‭Psalms‬ ‭50:12-23‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

http://bible.com/114/psa.50.12-23.nkjv

What right have you to declare My statutes, Or take My covenant in your mouth, Seeing you hate instruction And cast My words behind you? ( just a thought, I only know Christians to declare His statutes so logic tells me here He isn't talking to people who don't know His word and to people that don't consider they are His, if we quote scripture in our situation to get us out of trouble or to be "blessed going in, blessed coming out, pressed down shaken together and running over blessing" quotes  yet we despise/ "hate instruction" As in only live His statutes till it infringes on your appetite, finances and comfort, live Christianity for show but in reality are more wicked than most sinners we judge, Living with an acknowledged continuation in sin because we say "this is the twenty first century, not bible times, things are different now and we have different needs " that seem like a good enough reason to continue on hells path and yet trespass on heavens blessings, He calls such of us wicked.)“And of whom have you been afraid, or feared, That you have lied And not remembered Me, Nor taken it to your heart? Is it not because I have held My peace from of old That you do not fear Me? Isaiah 57

These things you have done, and I kept silent; You thought that I was altogether like you; But I will rebuke you, And set them in order before your eyes. “Now consider this, you who forget God, Lest I tear you in pieces, And there be none to deliver:  (It is truly a fearful thing to fall into the wrath of God)

“Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not of the Father but is of the world. And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.”

‭‭I John‬ ‭2:15-17‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

I know many feel they are in situations that force one to continue in sin, but no baby daddy, poverty or past pain is enough excuse to call off Gods Godly commands to you, your only bridge out of there is agreeing within yourself to lose it all for Him no matter what and thereafter you will meet on righteous grounds The God we know is able, Provider, Healer, Protector...and changer.  I had children out of wedlock with the most incredible excuses to do so then and live in sin after, so hear it from me, you can come right, you can make the sacrifice to be ripped from the ways of this world and to be found blameless worshipping before Him.  Today I have peace, today I live pure while single, today I learnt not to steal seemingly meaningless things for the survival of my children and today I know to own up to the fact that my today is not a result of my childhood abuse or no mother but rather a result of my own bad choices inspite of what I faced and my today and tomorrow will be molded by what I choose from this very second on.  God can do the impossible, I, former drug addicts, former prostitutes, former murderers, former cliptomaniacs and burglars, former many things can attest to the fact that if you come to a sacrificial faith in Him, He can and will do whatever it takes on His part to bring you to restoration, transformation, completion and purpose.  God righteously worshipped is able.

““No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon. “Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature? “So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? “Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.”

‭‭Matthew‬ ‭6:24-33‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

“Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God, and everyone who loves Him who begot also loves him who is begotten of Him. By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and keep His commandments. For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome. For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith.”

‭‭I John‬ ‭5:1-4‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

“Trust in the LORD, and do good; Dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness. Delight yourself also in the LORD, And He shall give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the LORD, Trust also in Him, And He shall bring it to pass. He shall bring forth your righteousness as the light, And your justice as the noonday.”

SACRIFICE

“These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.””

‭‭John‬ ‭16:33‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

http://bible.com/114/jhn.16.33.nkjv

“The face of the LORD is against those who do evil, To cut off the remembrance of them from the earth. The righteous cry out, and the LORD hears, And delivers them out of all their troubles. The LORD is near to those who have a broken heart, And saves such as have a contrite spirit. Many are the afflictions of the righteous, But the LORD delivers him out of them all.”

‭‭Psalms‬ ‭34:16-19‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

““If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple. And whoever does not bear his cross and come after Me cannot be My disciple.

So likewise, whoever of you does not forsake all that he has cannot be My disciple.”

"Dear friends

True faith sacrifices everything for God. 

...And there is no other standard allowed throughout mankind other than the standard set by the only living, all powerful GOD.  

Today I am grateful for the true men of God (like my spiritual papa, Apostle Clive Watsmann) that stood before us and undid the illusions, spoke an offensive gospel, who were steadfast against the sin in our lives and gave us a sobering saving truthful introduction to our God.

And I am eternally grateful to my merciful God that did not allow me to continue on my path to hell but who though loathsome of sin, walked into my former hells path to grab me for Himself, a God who patiently continues to change me into the likeness of His son, THIS IS LOVE!

Thank you for the cross Lord, and for Your guiding word, we exalt thee, we enthrone the, we lift you up.  You are real, powerful and surely alive!

You are ELOHIM, The only living God and You reign victorious"

‭‭II Chronicles‬ ‭7:14-15‬ ‭NKJV

“if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land. Now My eyes will be open and My ears attentive to prayer made in this place.”

Whoever offers praise glorifies Me; 

And to him who orders his conduct aright I will show the salvation of God!
