The Abuse Continues

I recently wrote about a form of abuse and want to give some insight into the confirmation given by the Holy Spirit. Acknowledging His timeliness. Reading from 1 Samuel 11:17-24.

I learned on the previous day that no exceptions are being made. The benefits in my contract are being gutted.

Consequently, I spoke with another nurse. Who (without me even asking) disclosed how much she is receiving. Before and after the modifications to her contract.

Feeling frustrated, disappointed, and very angry, I prayed to the LORD to help me healthily process this situation and move on.

Needless to say, the Spirit was letting me know that what He is revealing is truth. It is up to me to act accordingly. Albeit upset while driving home, I expressed my anger and frustration to the LORD.

Differing Standards and Integrity

Moreover, I want to clarify that I am not here to judge. Nevertheless, I am allowed to see how some, if not many, are in the same position as I am. Who feel comfortable doing the bare minimum. Giving with all my being, I am ordained for this. I do this unto God.

Notwithstanding, there is nothing new under the sun. The world protects its own.

There are several messages in this. God reveals secrets to His anointed. Even so, everything that transpires is allowed. God shines His light into the situation that the devil attempts to use to break you down. It is impossible to walk through this thing in darkness. Especially for those who are upright and display moral courage.

The Nature of Man

The fear of man can ensnare your soul. We are disappointed because we expect the same treatment that we mete out. Thus, we are only human. When people show you who they are, it is up to you to use discretion and discernment moving forward. Therefore, look to God. He will never let you down.

The LORD was specific in letting the Israelites know that it is He who saved them. From oppression and their enemies. Yet they wanted a king to reign over them. A mere man. Thereby, rejoicing as God granted their request.

God is sovereign. And we must trust Him. Through it all, He nurtures and allows us to see how He is working. When blinded by emotions, it is easy to ignore His grace.

The Revelation

As I write this, I feel His presence. His peace. His protection. And His love. I am choosing to accept His constancy and immovability over man's instability.

Furthermore, a double-minded man is unstable in all his ways. Even when this insecurity comes from within.

Glory to God!!!

However, I must mention that this is how Cain killed his brother. The LORD gave him a solution to the emotional turmoil that was building within him. Yet Cain chose to ignore it.

Always coming from a place of love!!!

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 ...

There Are Levels to This!!!

There Are Levels to This!!! “And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, ‘Take the rod; and you and your brother assemble the congregation and speak to the rock in front of them, (Notice that He did not tell Moses to speak to the people.) so that it will pour out its water. In this way you shall bring water for them out of the rock and let the congregation and their livestock drink [fresh water]’. So Moses took the rod from before the LORD, just as He commanded him; and Moses and Aaron gathered the assembly before the rock. Moses said to them, ‘Listen now, you rebels; must we bring you water out of this rock?’” (Numbers 20: 7-10, KJV). Let me reflect for a moment. Many times, it is in our nature to have the last word, to attempt to explain or justify ourselves, or to show that “I am right and you are wrong”. Even looking for approval or to provoke. When we do this, it never proves anything to a person or people that has already made their minds up to think the worst. Making the situation...

Now Is Not the Time to Waiver!!!

Now Is Not the Time to Waiver!!! 1) The Ancient Greek concept is makarios, “It means an inner peace, an inner bliss, an inner happiness, an inner joy that is not produced or affected by circumstances”. 2) The word translated “blessed” (barukh) is related to the Hebrew word for “knee” (berekh), as is the word for “blessing” (b’rakha), thus implying an association between humbling ourselves (i.e., kneeling before Him in recognition of His blessedness, and receiving personal blessing from Him. This is so important if you, as I am, are on a personal journey to walk in His peace and joy which surpasses all understanding. To stay in His presence. It is momentous as we come into and are in perilous times. As I confirm in His Word, I want to warn you that you must be circumspect. To cultivate, nurture, and protect it as the devil seeks to kill, steal, and destroy it from your lives. To destroy you. If you don’t recognize this amazing gift, you will never walk in it permanently. Peace, jo...
