My search.

I titled this blog, my search. Is it my search, or is it the Holy Spirit drawing me to search?

I say considering the fact that I am searching, I believe the latter. The holy spirit always prepares us for battle, by arming us with all we need to know. Now what might that be?

In my case tonight it's the book of Luke chapter 4 verse 1. I understand that this chapter is concerned with letting me know that Christ was tempted by Satan that old dog. This week that old dog from hell named Satan has barked at me from all directions. Yes indeed it is actually made me physically and spiritually tired. So with this late hour when I probably should be asleep the Holy Spirit has me up so he can reveal to me in the word of God what's actually been going on and why. It raises an old question or should I say a comment, that if Satan is not dogging you, then perhaps you're not praying up, perhaps there's an issue with how much you do or do not love the Lord. I have no doubt that loving the Lord my God with all of my heart all of my soul and all of my mind and might is number one. God the Father does above all things, listens intently to my prayers and what I asked for. When I get to the point to where my main objective is to desire the Lord to help me love him more and more and more. To love him more than so many things in my life that I have loved. So many people I have loved. Even the desire to survive. My prayer and desire for writing this is to hopefully stir up your interest in God the Father, and do it in the name of Christ his only begotten Son. Remember Luke chapter 4 verse 1 got my curiosity stirred,. I could not at first fully grasp the comment that Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost was led up, to be tempted by Satan. I was not satisfied with the story of the temptation until I first could grasp Christ being full of the Holy Ghost and why. I got both answers. You know what they were? They were and are the same exact thing the Holy Ghost can do for us and will do for us to stave off any temptation. He armors us with the Word of God. I pray this blog the words about what I have learned and just one small verse, will stir up the fire that burns in your bellies, and you're gut. Pray without ceasing, you don't have to pray for material things alone, this is not a prosperity Gospel. It's about learning and being taught and prepared for the persecution that may or may not be coming your way. As I write, Brothers and sisters in Christ, are being tortured and murdered for Christ's sake. All around the world. How long before it begins in the United States of America? I must go now. If you're reading this and you're born from above, then I'm praying for you. If you happen to read this and your not a believer, I am praying for you also. I'm praying the Holy Spirit of the one and only true God, will guide you and draw you to Christ. After all that's what he always does. Good evening from the United States of America. And may God help us.

Where is your heart!

We must work for the necessities of life. And I know it. I have lived in survival mode my entire life. But upon owning very nice possessions I increasingly realized that if I perish they would be worthless to me.I must depend on God to provide. I must love Him with all of my heart and all of my soul and all of my mind. For the first time in my life I long to hear his words preached. I realize my nothingness without Jesus. Everything I have my very breath he's all in his hands.My being able to help provide for myself, in extreme chronic pain is nothing less then the working of my heavenly Father. I'm aware when I approach his throne many times in the course of a day He has never failed me not once. I try to pray even for the desires of my heart as long as they are in his will. Now you may ask how do I know what his will is. It is in the words of the Holy Bible. That is God's word to us. He does not have special Revelations 2 people. I am deeply saddened that there are so many people and I come in contact with daily many of which I have met several times that do not have faith in Christ. I've talked to many who have what I call, off the wall Belief's. Please do not sit at home becoming anxious, wondering about your existence. The answers are in the scriptures. Most of my ideas in this blog are from the 12th chapter of the book of Luke. Read the entire chapter and put your faith in Christ. None of us know how long we're going to be here, nor how we will die, or should I say how we will leave this earth. I'm exhausted at this moment, I've been so busy that my heart yearns for the words of my living God. Pray for me that I will give what is you to my Lord. I understand that I gave everything I wouldn't be in existence. But I assure you God knows what each of us are in need of. I pray that those that read this I will be with him and Christ in heaven one day. God is a loving and merciful God. I'm not worthy to even be in existence, but He had other ideas. Here are some things that are in the 12th chapter of Luke. Beginning wiz warnings and encouragement verses 1 through 12. Then you have warnings against greed. Chapter 12 versus XIII through 21. Then something millions of people suffer with anxiety. Chapter 12 verses 22 + 23 anxiety versus face let's change that to chapter 12 verse 22 through 34. I realize that a lot can be said about how to be saved. The Bible clearly teaches that Jesus said to call on the name of Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved. Meaning you must be sorry for your sins and brought low because you do not love the fact that you sin. Thinking on that subject can cause anxiety but if you read the word of God you will become closer to him and understanding Him. Remember it is a fatal mistake to look upon a man's life as consisting all the abundance of his possessions. At this point I will go to bed. My prayer is that the Holy Spirit Will convict the hearts of those filled with unbelief and when he convinced them I will get on their knees and pray to The only living God to save them and have mercy. It's not about just coming down front shaking hands with a pastor and some Deacons. You must have remorse for your sin. The closer you get to God the more you will hate your sin. We cannot hang on to it I expect any real move of God to save us. May God bless and good night.

At that point.

 Have u ever heard that statement. At that point. Well this time I'm glad I am. This time I find myself asking and desiring the lord to place in me a pure heart,and a heart that loves My Heavenly Father and His Son Jesus Christ more than anything in this World. No idolatry.  Merry Christmas to everyone and a happy New Year.

Minds that are darkened.

It is time once again to worship celebrate the birth a Jesus Christ. The Gospels teach a very powerful message about Elizabeth the mother of John the Baptist, and Mary the mother of Christ. I should say the Christ. How afraid the Shepherds were when the angel of the Lord came and appeared unto them, the story of all the host of angels in heaven praising God at the birth of the Savior. Yet this is not but just a stopping off point for me, because my main topic was about the noetic affect of sin on human life. Adam and Eve's sin darkened the spirit of Adam and Eve, and from then on every human being born. The Apostle Paul made a statement concerning the minds of pagan people. That is to say those who do not follow Christ those who he is not their lord. He said since they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, he gave them over to a depraved mind otherwise known as a reprobate mind. In order to do what ought not be done oh, you can read that in the Book of Romans the first chapter and the 28th verse Paul told the Corinthians in 2nd Corinthians 4:4 that the God of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the Gospel all of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. My goodness are you spiritually blind tonight? Are you living a life bragging about it. Homosexuality adultery fornication, being a thief thinking it's alright to steal ,that the person the company you work for or whoever has plenty of money and O's you. Paul said in 2nd Corinthians that the God of this age oh, he's speaking of Satan, has blinded your eyes. Do you want your eyes to be blind do you want to walk through life even entertaining the thought that the way your thinking is so against the way of God, that it's got you spiritually blind and dead. I know God is all-knowing, I know that he knew from the beginning of time and ordained it as to who would be called who he would seek after and who would hear and accept him and follow him and make him their lord. But I cannot take the chance because I'm not all-knowing, and assume that your a follower a Christ. Think of this, Satan himself and his fallen angels all are very knowledgeable of the scripture and they actually know Jesus Christ my Lord. Yet so many millions reject Him. Those that are blinded by Satan..the god of this world, cannot see the light of the gospel of the glory of God. Oh I pray for all of those. The almighty Lord knows who you are. I pray it is not too late for you, this is an urgent matter that cannot be delayed not another day not another year or month or even another second. Get on your knees Wherever You Are in private, and beg God for forgiveness please. For those that reject the gospel of Christ it's going to be a horrible horrible end. The Lord knows what you are in need of, this is not to glorify any of us but for the glory of the Almighty. The Lord is the Potter I Am The Clay, I don't care how healthy he has made me in my life or how wealthy, it all came from him everything good that ever occurred that has come to pass in life has come from above. I love you all may God forgive you and be with you forever and you with him.Amen.

What it takes.

 Many in American culture, and from what I have observed of other nations or culture, seem to have invented there own means of salvation. I'm speaking of course to the subject that concerns our souls. Unfortunately many wish to bypass Jesus Christ. Many refute what the Bible says and or hate to even hear that term mentioned. The Bible alone has the message of salvation. In view I've God's General revelation, all men are without excuse you can see that in Romans 1:20 for all who sin apart from the written law will also perish apart from the law Romans chapter 2 verse 12 General Revelation is sufficient ground for men's condemnation, however, it is not sufficient for salvation. One can tell how the heavens go by studying General revelation, but he cannot discover from it how to go to heaven, quote there is no other name under Heaven except Christ name given to men by which we must be saved Acts 4:12 in order to be saved people must confess Jesus is Lord and believe in their hearts that God has raised him from the dead Romans 10:9 but they cannot call upon someone of whom they have not heard and how can they hear without someone preaching to them Romans 10:14 does preaching the gospel and all the world is the Christians Great Commission you can find that in Matthew chapter 28 verses 18 through 20. So let me add, this is indeed what the word of God, the Bible, says. Please take this short message to Heart. If you rejected you reject Christ. If you reject Christ the outcome is severe. When we die one of two places we go. Either Heaven or Hell. I love you all goodnight sweet dreams and Godspeed.

Only Once.

What a reassurance of belonging. for those that insist on faith plus something else read Hebrews chapter 10 which explains Christ suffered and died once for our iniquities. Roman Catholicism insist on works with your faith. So do the followers of the charismatic movement. Please do not get entangled with any of these.God bless you and g

oodnight.

Appropriate Retribution

How shall we escape if we neglect and refused to pay attention to such a great salvation.As is now offered to us, letting it drift past us forever? For it was declared at first by the Lord Himself, and it was confirmed to us and proved to be real and genuine by those who personally heard Him speak..,.Chapter 2 verse 3 of the book of Hebrews. Look at verse 4.... Besides this evidence, it was also established and plainly endorsed by God. Who showed his approval of it by signs and wonders and various miraculous manifestations of His power and by imparting the gifts of the Holy Spirit to the believers according to His own will. Listen up folks, there is no doubt in my mind that regardless of what goes on in this world in any Nation at any time in history this same Jesus that was seen and heard to preach his gospel he is great news of shedding his blood and dying and being resurrected also is in control of all the activities of mankind. Jesus knows the end because he is the alpha and the Omega the beginning and the end. Place your trust today while there is time, in him. Place your thoughts and actions hopes and dreams and every breath You take into his hands. Probably since birth you have heard of the name Jesus yet mini neglect, and reject and plain out refuse to follow Him. Appropriate retribution is what we deserve so even if you trust completely in Jesus Christ do not neglect the salvation he has given freely to you, but at the cost of His blood. Amen.
