Covered

Image
Ephesians 6:10-11 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.      The basic meaning of the word armor is a protective covering. Natural armor is made of a material that is strong and tough. It's purpose is to cover every area of the body that is open to attack by an enemy. Still, the best armor that is available to naturally protect man today, is unable to protect him from the thing that hurts him the most, sin. This is because sin works from the inside of man. Man alone can never protect himself from what is naturally inside him.      Enter the Lord Jesus Christ. His shed blood paid the price for all our sins. This makes it possible for the sin inside us to be made powerless. Through Jesus Christ we can now be protected from sin from the inside out, in the spirit and the natural. This means that if the sin inside us is powerless, the...

Perfect Peace

Image
  Isaiah 26:3 Thou will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee; because he trusts in thee.       When the word perfect is used to describe something, it is saying that, that certain something is as good as it is possible for it to be. The word peace means freedom from disturbance. This means the absence of all violent or confrontational activity within or without that certain something. Perfect peace means complete freedom from every type of disturbance that could possibly affect man.       For us to have peace, we feel the need for  our relationships, our health and our finances to be free of disturbance. When something negative happens in these three areas of life, our peace is disturbed. Stress in these areas tend to  locked our minds into patterns of thinking how to end the stress. This is hard to do because stress is most likely being generated by pride in us or others connected to us. This makes it almost impossibl...

Progressive Relationship

Image
  Proverbs 1:2-4   To know wisdom and instruction, to perceive the words of understanding; To receive the instruction of wisdom, justice, and judgment, and equity, To give subtilty to the simple, to the young man knowledge and discretion.      Man was created to know God. Man was created to perceive God. Man was created to receive God. Man was created to give unto God. Man was created by God to be his glorified  reflection in the earth. Man was to use his life to worship and glorify God. He was to do it out of a true loving relationship with God and not out of some kind of religious obligation toward God.      In short and keeping things simple, man is to know, perceive, receive and give God, first to himself, and then to all those around him who he is responsible to influence. Anyone who comes to Christ and receives him, must first be given information about Jesus Christ. This is the beginning of getting to know him.       The...

Lord You Know Me

Image
  Psalm 139:1 O Lord, thou has searched me, and know me.       Since the dawn of time man has in each generation uncovered things hidden in the earth that have led to the discovery of inventions. The inventions in most cases have been used for both good and bad. The creator of the invention had a specific goal in mind, but often times others took the same invention and used it for other purposes. When this happens the true intention or purpose of the thing created can sometimes be lost forever. Only the creator can look within the thing created and see the purpose he intended. Only the creator can look within the creation to see if it is operating correctly. Only the creator can truly see what is right and what is wrong with his creation.      Everyone that has ever lived on this planet at one time or another has felt the presence of the creator. At that moment man knew that there was someone higher than man. The bible says in Genesis 1:26 that man was...

Beyond Jordan

Image
John 3:26 And they came unto John, and said unto him, Rabbi, he that was with thee beyond Jordan, to whom thou barest witness, behold, the same baptizeth, and all men come to him.      The Jordan river has always been a special place for God's people. Many great events has happened at this place. But the most important aspect about the Jordan is that it is a symbol of a place where supernatural transition takes place. It is a crossing point from the natural into supernatural movement with God. This is the place where parts of the flesh dies and parts of the Spirit advances.        The Jordan is the symbolic place in the Spirit where one gives it all to God. You decide your life is not yours anymore. You declare that you belong to Christ. To him and him alone you worship. You do not trust flesh anymore. Christ is your God and your actions line up with his will. Transformation of your soul is going beyond just a confession and has ente...

Kingdom Advancers ( The Spiritual DAD )

Image
Romans 8:15 For you have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but you have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba Father.  Kingdom Advancers are people called by God to move his earthly kingdom forward. They are the ones who He calls to put, move or push someone or something forward according to God's plan for His kingdom. There are many people in the bible who fall into this category of kingdom advancer. Today our focus will be on the kingdom DAD and his role as a Kingdom Advancer.       The word Father means male parent. In the natural he is the one who helps to bring you into existence by the process of reproduction. He is also the one who is suppose to take on the task of overseeing your progress from existence into a progressive life.This is true in the natural and the Spirit.       Spiritual father sees to your progress in both the Spirit and the natural. His formal name is Father. His informal...

From Everlasting to Everlasting

Image
  Psalm 90:1-2      Lord, thou has been our dwelling place in all generations. Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou had formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting thou art God.       The bible says that all generations have had the Lord available as a dwelling place. This means all generations prepared by the most high God have the choice of choosing to dwell and abide with him. Everything that is known or unknown came from God. Everything came from inside of him. This means that everything at one time had God as a dwelling place. We all had our place in God. He created us to have a place with him. Before this world was created by God we all existed in God. Before heaven was created all the beings in heaven existed in God.      When God created heaven and earth he chose to place created beings in both places.  The key hear is that he decided where his creations would exist. He put them...
