The Danger of Someone Who is Asleep

This will be short and to the point.

Listening to a sermon titled, "Are You Ready", brought back to my remembrance something that the Holy Spirit told me a long time ago. At the time, the focus was on infidelity. I was going through a divorce. But the LORD made it very clear that it could pertain to murder, lying, stealing, and every other work.

If someone says that they love, you and you have found out about an egregious behavior, hidden from you. And even after it is revealed they persist in lying or trying to minimize the situation. Then most dubiously, attempt to blame you for their actions. But can sleep soundly. Having done so even before you were cognizant of the circumstances. Then there is a blaringly obvious blatant disregard for your well-being and mental health.

Please Be Aware

This is a savage!!! Your very life could be in peril. Do not deceive yourself by allowing half-truths to be deemed accidental.

Besides saying within yourselves that this loved one did not mean it, and he/she loves me.

Regardless of who they are to you, they despise you. They will tear you down and eradicate you. Nevertheless, what is the most injurious and the most telling, is how their spirit can rest.

The Conviction of the Spirit

Yesterday I reacted to a situation that could have harmed and injured others, including myself. I felt the flutter in my spirit immediately. God spared me but it was an indication, a knowing, "Do NOT tempt me. You know better!"

Afterwards, my spirit was not at rest. I was apologizing profusely to my LORD. And I had no peace for hours.

I felt so bad that I vowed to not let another person's ignorance cause me to step out of character. Albeit I am not perfect, and I need the grace of the Spirit. I felt extremely convicted. It was a feeling of anxiety, unrest, and dread. Because of our intimacy, I hated it. And never wanted to feel that way again.

Pure and Virtuous Love

When you truly love God, man, or woman. And the bond becomes stronger. You will never purposely offend Him or them. Remember, we are made in His image. This is why offenses, including those who bring them, and being easily offended, is a stumbling block to our relationship with Him. Rooted in selfishness, self-seeking, egotism, and introversion are characteristics thar are not of JESUS.

We are not ready to see His face in peace if we refuse to love one another. LOVE answers all things.

The Commandment for Men to Protect!!!

The Commandment for Men to Protect!!! To explain the importance of the words that we speak, I want you to meditate on this story that is placed in the Word of the LORD for a reason. Followed by the importance of honor in a man. Also read chapter 11 in the Book of Judges to get the full background and context. That in all that he was “perceived” to be, he was more honorable than most. Even in his reckless, inept speech. Placed in a sacrificial role of leadership, with no experience or guidance. Who in his heart held the LORD as highly esteemed, respected, and in the highest regard. “And Jephthah vowed a vow unto the LORD, and said, If thou shalt without fail deliver the children of Ammon into mine hands, then it shall be, that whosoever cometh forth of the doors of my house to meet me, when I return in peace from the children of Ammon, shall surely be the LORD’s, and I will offer it up for a burnt offering. “So Jephthah passed over unto the children of Ammon to fight against ...

Walk in Your Integrity!!!

Walk in Your Integrity!!! They were then given in marriage to these same men. Looking into their faces as they relived these horrors daily. Even as they were intimate with them. In every morsel of food that they ate. Seeing their valuables when they were forced to worship a God that they did not care to know. As they watched their captors wearing their items and those of their lost loved ones on their bodies, and whomever they chose to give them too. How were their wives and daughters supposed to feel about these foreign women being brought into their homes? Did they think that gifts should appease them, as they desire these other women? What type of example is this setting for their own children, including their sons? As these women may have felt rejected, made to feel less than. To think that these other women could ever truly love them is asinine. But this curse is two-fold, as our people were sent into slavery throughout our history as a people. Whose lands were taken from th...

I Have Done No Wrong!!!

I Have Done No Wrong!!! Many of us believe that if we do the bare minimum that all of our past sins should be forgotten. And that God should wave His magic wand and give us what we want. But can I tell you something? God is not a man that He should lie, nor the son of man, that He should repent. We do evil in His sight, He then judges us in righteousness, but we think that we should decide when our punishment is sufficient. By His grace, He has already set the terms, that if we obey, we can still be victorious and more importantly, learn the lesson, with patience, being steadfast. So that we truly repent of our evil ways. Let me put it this way. Imagine committing adultery against God, and although He forgives us, we continually complain, and gaslight Him. As if He should feel less than as we continue to blame Him for our imperfections. For our ungrateful nature. Without rectifying our wrongdoings. As if nothing that our Creator could ever do is good enough. Should we not expect ...
