HEAR YOU HIM!

Image
Matthew 17:5 While he yet spoke, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased, hear you him.      This is the second time in the gospel accounts that a voice from heaven validated Jesus as the beloved Son of God. The bible says that in the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established.  God himself used his voice to established Jesus as his beloved Son. God also established that he was well pleased with his Son.       On the mount of transfiguration Jesus had Peter, James and John as his witnesses of what happened that day. For them, even above all what they saw, the most important thing that happened was what they heard. All three heard a voice from the middle of a bright cloud say This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased, hear you him!       This was the first time they supernaturally heard a vo...

Through The Fire

Image
Psalm 66:12 Thou has caused men to ride over our heads; we went through fire and water: but thou brought us out into a wealthy place.      The bible says that God will prove you. If you are a son or daughter of the most high God, alive in the earth today, then let me say to you loud and clear; "IT IS ONLY A TEST"! But know this you are not alone! He is in the middle of the test with you.       He is the one taking you through the fire. It is his hand that you hold! This test you are in he designed just for you. But know this, he has already given you what you need to make it through the fire to the other side.       On the other side is a good place closer to HIM. God is good and perfect. He has said "Be you perfect ". This word perfect in a sense means to be sincere. It means to be free from pretense or deceit. It also means to be genuine, real and honest.       This is the way he prov...

AN IDLE LIFE

Image
Ecclesiastes 10:18  By much slothfulness the building decayeth; and through idleness of the hands the house droppeth through. Have you ever seen the movie Groundhog Day. It is a movie about a man who relives the same day over and over again with the same results each day. No matter how hard he tries, the day ends up the same! He has no forward progress. He ends up right were he started. Have you ever felt that way? I know I have! I believe most of us, if we are honest, have found ourselves in this position at some point in our lives. The bible calls this type of situation idleness. The basic meaning of the word idle is: To be groundless, useless or worthless. It's more than being lazy for a season. Idleness in a real sense is a way of life. This type of existence has no forward momentum. At the very best you stay the same. But in most cases over time you loose ground. If we are idle in our relationships, health and money, we loose ground. If idle hands in a natural life can cau...

The Five Kings of Fear

Image
Joshua 10:8 And the Lord said unto Joshua, Fear them not: for I have delivered them into thine hand; there shall not a man of them stand before thee.      In poker four kings is a very good hand. In the bible found in the book of Joshua chapter ten we find five kings who are a type and shadow of fear which is a very bad hand.The five kings were the kings of the Amorites. They were one of a group of people that God told the children of Israel to totally eject from the land of promise.       Amorite means mountaineer. Mountaineer is a person who lives in the mountain or inhabits a  high place. In the Old Testament an Amorite is a symbolic type meant to represent pride and arrogance. Pride and arrogance is a by product of deep rooted fear. A spirit of fear is what causes a person to trust themselves only. It is a spirit of fear that boasts I am the greatest!       The five Amorite kings of Joshua chapter ten were kings o...

Hot Spots

Image
 Genesis 28:12 And he dreamed, and behold a ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it reached to heaven and behold the angels of God ascending and descending on it.      A hot spot in the spiritual sense is a place of focused Spirit activity. There are two types of spirit activity, good and evil. There has been to much in time passed spoken about the evil.Today let us look at only the good! The bible says that God is good and that God is a Holy Spirit. When God opens a hot spot it is good, holy and full of Spirit activity designed to progress his plans and purposes in the earth. A hot spot is usually a person or a place that God has chosen as a focal point. After connecting heaven and earth through the hot spot everything in both heaven and earth changes!      There are many examples of hot spots in the bible. The one thing that they all have in common is that the presence of God was in that place. Did not matter if it was a spiritual pla...

Set Your Heart And Soul.

Image
1 Chronicles 22:19  Now set your heart and your soul to seek the Lord your God; arise therefore, and build you the sanctuary of the Lord your God, to bring the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and the holy vessels of God, into the house that is to be built to the name of the Lord.      It is said that the Old Testament is types and shadows of things to come. It is also said that when Jesus came the Old Testament was fulfilled. He showed us how to take the words of the old and walk them out in the new. To walk in the new takes a now word to activate the faith God has placed within us to move by faith. Our heart and soul must be set to faith mode if we want to prepare a place inside us for God to dwell.      In the Old Testament man wanted to build God a house. In this house there was to be a sanctuary for the Lord to bring the ark of the covenant and a place for his holy vessels. Before any of this building could take place, the people f...

Arm Yourselves! Part 1

Image
1 Peter 4:1-2 Forasmuch then as Christ has suffered for us in the flesh, ARM YOURSELVES likewise with the same mind: for he that has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin; That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.      We live in a time where the voice of the living God is calling us to Him like never before. I believe He is calling to us with such a strong voice. The total fulfillment of His whole word is at hand. The state of this entire world is getting worst and worst as time continues to pass.       It has become a cruel and unforgiving place that is cold and selfish. Most live in a world where they just do whatever they feel regardless of how it effects others. In short we live in a flesh driven world. This leads us to sin to get whatever we want. So the question is how can we live in a world like this and still be able to hear the voice of God?     ...
