We are taking notice at the division of the Monarchy; what happens when we are in earthly authority and we turn from The LORD GOD. Also take notice what happens when the King turns the heart of his followers back to The LORD GOD. Remember, The LORD GOD is the same yesterday, today and forever; which means that what HE did for the Kings who worshipped HIM; HE will do in America if the President, present or future will turn the hearts of…

The LORD GOD is just wonderful; I know that some of you without a doubt will find yourselves in the next group of JESUS ancestors. These people will give us all hope.

Everyone has a family and everyone has family issues. Everyone is also told that they remind other’s of another family member by looks or character. Looks we have no control over but character we do. Let’s take a look at JESUS family members and how HE chose not to be who HIS family came from. I want us to see how they were major mess ups yet The LORD GOD kept HIS…

2 Samuel 22:3, 47 

In the beginning of this series we looked at what is meant when someone tells us that they got save. Then we looked further into what is meant by being saved. Now we will discover who salvation belongs to and how there is only one person that we can go to so that we can partake in this eternal life of blessing. 

In salvation we have strength, trust; power (horn); we are shielded; we are in a fortified place; a fortress. The LORD…

1 Samuel 10:19 

From the blog titled “Save” we found out what it means to be saved. Now let’s discover why we must be saved.

Simply put it’s because we have rejected The LORD GOD. However, The LORD GOD has made it possible…

2 Samuel 22:3

What do you think of when you hear someone ask you if you are saved?

If you are anything like I was when I was a kid and my mother told my siblings and me that she had been saved; you may have thought that maybe someone helped her get out of the way of a moving car or…

These are three important questions; I hope that when you read just a few of the answers that you will ask yourself these questions. Am I who GOD said I am? Am I doing the will of GOD? Have I chosen to be with GOD or the devil in hell? 

1.      Who am I?

We are a spirit created in the image of GOD. Genesis 1:26

We are a people with a great future and hope. Jeremiah 29:11

We are gods. John…

All anyone desires in their life is peace. People will seek for peace in many different forms that will lull them into a false sense of peace. The enemy’s peace is defined in this acronym.

P – pressure

E – escape

A – availability

C – curiosity

E – emptiness

GOD’s peace is nothing like that. When we turn to GOD for peace this is what we get. Freedom of the mind, soul and spirit. Freedom from distraction,…

Actually it’s not wrong to drink; what’s wrong is getting drunk and becoming a glutton towards addiction. People have problems with limits; it appears that people don’t know when to say no or enough. Most people may not get drunk from one glass of alcoholic drink and some do (I'm one). When a person is drunk their ability to make decisions are off. More times than not they make the wrong decisions and do foolish things. Once the addiction for alcohol takes over; the heart becomes enslaved…

Human beings need to know that they are loved and wanted. They need encouragement rather than constant rebuke. When people don’t receive praise or positive acknowledgment and self worth at home; they will begin to look for it outside of the home. Remember that we are created in the image of GOD. GOD desires that we praise HIM and because we are created in HIS image we look for praise from those who love us; namely our family. We are to build each other up with helpful words that will…

There is a saying that “music soothes the savage beast.” Well it all depends on the type of music we are listening to. In some countries there is music dedicated with the precise purpose of creating a frenzy among the dancers which is used to call forth demonic spirits to take over their bodies. Some music is created to soothe as is in 1 Samuel 16:16, 23. Some music is created to celebrate as in Luke 15:25. Music will either energize us or relax us. There was a time that when music…

What I have to share may not be accepted very well. All I can write is that you read the scriptures offered; pray about what you have read in the scriptures. Ask GOD to give you complete understanding and live a victorious life.

The very first scripture I want to share is Mark 3:28 which is written in the NKJV “Assuredly, I say to you, all sins will be forgiven the sons of men…

No! It still surprises me that even the children of GOD; don’t understand just how much GOD loves us. Though we love GOD we can never out love GOD. The love that GOD has for people; notice I wrote people not HIS children or those who has not accepted HIS SON. GOD loves people and GOD desires that all people will return to HIM. Unfortunately HE and we know that will never happen. When JESUS walked on the earth there were many people who heard HIM…

Good question; but before I get into the depth of confusion. Let’s understand that confusion is in two parts. The demonic spirit of confusion: when thoughts are unclear, indistinct, bemuddled, the failure to distinguish between reality and fantasy, everything mentally is all jumbled up. This is an everyday occurrence. We call these people mentally ill due to dual personalities; schizophrenia and such.

Then there is the person who has for the most part not gotten a clear…

The answer is a big whopping YES! Most of GOD’s children continue to feel guilty for various reasons. Some that I am familiar with are the following.

• You have not fully accepted GOD’s forgiveness.
• You keep reminding yourself of the wrong you did.
• You listen to someone else remind you of the wrong you did.
• You are being taught incorrectly about the forgiveness of GOD.
• You have not forgiven…

Well, let’s look at the beginning of sin. Genesis 3:1-6, 11-13; take notice of a few things.

1.  The moment the serpent began to speak; Eve should have known something was wrong instead of standing there conversation with it.

2.  GOD never told Adam that he or his wife could not touch the fruit of the tree.

3.  Adam and Eve were already like GOD because they were created in HIS image. GOD spoke to them daily so anything they…

Heaven is a Kingdom and the throne of GOD. In heaven are many mansions. It holds the purses of our treasure where we may obtain what we need here on earth. A throne with someone seated; there are twenty-four elders seated around the throne. In the front of the throne are seven torches which are the seven spirits of GOD. In front of the throne is a shiny sea of glass. In the center and around the throne are four living beings. All they…
