God can still harden hearts of those who keep rejecting him
July 28, 2015 00:36 - 7 minutes - 1.7 MBWhy would we want to rebel against the only true and living God. We don't fully understand the way God transforms us into The Lord's image, however we're told to trust him, always and when we struggle with this, then we will move away from him a bit, to go our own way. Unfortunately this is rebellion. He does know how to bring us back, by His Spirit, chastening us. However, the hardening comes when we keep ignoring God's Spirit. If we keep ignoring his chastening and correction, he will h...
Are you praying for God to open eyes or keep them blind?
May 12, 2015 01:05 - 14 minutes - 3.24 MB2 kings 6:15-17, exodus 23:8, 1 john 2:11, matthew 15:14, john 9:25, isaiah 42:7, Isaiah 56:10, ephesians 2:2, john 8:44, 2 corinthians 4:4. the beginning of our work for The Lord Jesus Christ is the pray that by His Spirit, he soften the hearts and souls of the lost, or those in rebellion, and their eyes to become opened to see their sole need for himself. Then as we pray, which actually means, we do more listening than speaking, we will hear how he will use us to speak the gospel at the...
Is your zeal for God or against God?
March 24, 2015 23:58 - 17 minutes - 4.03 MBJohn 2. Matthew 21. Psalm 69:9. Philippians 3:6. Romans 10:2. zeal=g2205 and g2204. properly heated. jealousy as a husband for his wife, as God is with us. Malice is the worse kind of jealousy. A boiling fire stirring within us. When God removes his Spirit from a building, temple, it is dead. Churches closing across the nation. the first temple we need to care for is our earthly bodies. Flee from sin, watch over our eyes. the rich young ruler had a zeal for many things, m...

Take the log out of your eye & Please stop calling God a liar?
September 06, 2014 12:03 - 5 minutes - 1.35 MBIn Matthew 7:3-5, Jesus corrected many for improper judging. In other areas of the new testament, we are required to go to a brother and/or sister who is straying from the narrow way. We're actually going in love, not judgement, and we are to go one on one first. What these verses are speaking about, would be those who are caught up in the same, or similar, sin as those intending to judge. We're not able to do this, before Jesus has not pruned us of those areas from our own lives. This...
Why are you wearing a lampshade?
September 06, 2014 11:51 - 7 minutes - 1.69 MBWhen Jesus commands us not to put any bushel (the same as a covering, or lampshade, ) over his light which is now in us, as we are also to be in him, he means it. In Matthew 5:14-16, is where we are told this. We were not saved by ANY church organization, rather by The Light, who is Christ Jesus. Somewhere in the past, we lost our way in this nation and made it about the 501-c-3, or the "organization of church" as a business entity, and too many are no longer being the lampstands we're suppo...
Current example of unjust gain before God
August 31, 2014 14:45 - 3 minutes - 782 KBIn the old testament, unjust gain was primarily the charging of usury, which is the same thing as charging interest rates on money loaned. Today, it is anything which adds a profit making cost to a fixed selling price, which includes a fair profit and all cost of doing business. Similar to interest and it is being done under the power of the great harlot, best described in Revelation 17. This is example regards a construction zone and the demonic way they are set up, way outside the ac...
Are you correcting people God's way or Satan's way?
December 29, 2013 14:39 - 34 minutes - 7.83 MBHumans correct, very close to the way Satan does, which is by public humiliation. Check out when any pastor, elder, etc., messes up. The media is all of them. However, as in Matthew 7, Job 36:10, Proverbs 19:18, Revelation 3:19, and many others, God never does this. He starts with any leader, going into a closed-like door, one on one with the sinning party, and reveals to them where they went wrong, prayers with them, & works out repentance and correction. Then, if the offending refu...
Godly vs Human Counsel
October 21, 2013 01:00 - 43 minutes - 20.2 MBall of our lives here on this earth will depend on whether we fully trust in God through Jesus Christ and in the value of his Word or not. A part of this, is seeking and gaining counsel at different tiimes. It is a part of disciplemaking. Now, we should all be learning by now that Godly counsel will ONLY come through his word and should have NO personal opinions within it. Other verses which were provided by God to me in teaching on this subject include: Proverbs 24:6,. 27:9, 27:17...
Are you following the family's religion or God's salvation?
September 28, 2013 15:04 - 11 minutes - 2.56 MBNahum Jonah 3
Are we being the body of Jesus Christ or the body of flesh?
September 07, 2013 01:00 - 2 minutes - 766 KBAll through the bible, we should be seeing that the body of Jesus Christ, is not governmentally approved institutions, rather it is a living being. It is to be Jesus Christ. Church was never intended to be a building, but living. check out 1 Peter 1 where we are told we are as living stones, being built by Jesus Christ. Even Daniel saw it, God building the body of Jesus Christ, not with flesh and blood, but by his flesh and by his shed blood for our sin nature. So why are we still trying...
God's provisions are daily, not weekly or monthly.
September 01, 2013 01:00 - 11 minutes - 2.84 MBWhy are we still living by the week or month? From paycheck to paycheck. Why do we not fully give our all to Jesus Christ each day, beginning by spending quiet time with him each morning and ending the day with quiet praise and worship of him for who he is.
Are there false witnesses today?
August 30, 2013 01:00 - 3 minutes - 957 KBthe only way the religious leaders and the governmental leaders were able to try and convict Jesus Christ was by the testimony of false witnesses. And as Jesus told us, and still applies today, is that we are not above him, what they did to him, they will do to us. Now we ALL mess up and will have to suffer some form of punishment for it, but it is never unto spiritual death, as when we are rebuked by The Spirit of God by any means he deems necessary and tearfully ask forgiveness, we are ...
Are you bringing the lost to Jesus or to Church?
July 16, 2013 01:00 - 1 minute - 858 KBAs we should be noticing in these passages, the 4 friends as the bible calls them, had already heard about Jesus Christ and to believe in him for salvation, knowing by The Spirit of God, that he is the son of God, knew they had to bring the lost to him also. Their compassion for their lost and physically sick friend was so strong, that nothing was going to stand in the way. An application question here for us all, would be: Are you so compassionate for your family, friends, and the lo...
What are God's boundaries for your life & have you crossed from them?
July 16, 2013 01:00 - 2 minutes - 1.27 MBThrough out all of our life, we have boundaries. They can be both good or bad. They are bad, when they are restrictive and only evil persons, not yet saved or not practicing Christians, will enforce them. These would be fall under the category of slavery or bondage. The enemy, when he was our eternal father before we came to believe in Jesus Christ and received his free gift of Grace. The good ones are for our safety and well being. Examples would be speed limits, they are meant to ...
Are people's hearts being pricked by your speaking/living God's Word?
February 19, 2013 01:00 - 8 minutes - 4.17 MBIf we go back to when God first got out attention, how our heart was touched so deeply, we knew that we knew it was God calling us into relationship and salvation with himself. Well, this same Spirit of God is supposed to be within us, I use the word supposed in that there are still many sitting in churches in America who are not yet really saved and gives all of us who are saved his holy spirit. Not just for ourselves alone, but to reach through our submission to him alone, to draw other...
Who is your example: God or Man/Woman?
February 01, 2013 01:00 - 5 minutes - 2.8 MBWe are want to be good examples to those younger members under our charge and those who we run into on the street, in work, in school, in the n'hood. But what kind of example do we project? Are we truly desiring to reveal on The Lord Jesus Christ to them or just our good character which many are teaching today? I'm not advocating that a good character is not important, but we depart from God's teachings when we only focus on putting on a front of good character before others i...
America's sin of divorce.
January 27, 2013 14:11 - 1 minute - 430 KBWhat does God really mean when he says he wrote a bill of divorce to Israel? he means he doesn't like their rebellion and sin against him, and he is letting the do anything in their own strength. Which, he proves through out the bible, this is impossible to be successful in this endeavor. They always came to the end of themselves, repenting before him. But, apart from the gospel: which clearly states that God loves enough to send Jesus to the cross, to suffer and die for our sins. Once ...
Multiple lessons: R you walking in the peace of God or fake peace of Man/Woman?
December 28, 2012 01:00 - 16 minutes - 7.95 MBThe main lesson, but for myself and for y'all, would be the peace of God. As we will notice in God's word, he gives us 2 option, one where he is our peace and strength and the other where we become our own peace and strength. His leads to life and our own leads to death. All through out his word and we are shown this everyday, through the life of our friends and family, who striving all day trying to do things per their own strength and live daily with a false sense of peace.
Multiple lessons: R you living by the works of Man/Woman or by God's Works by faith?
December 28, 2012 01:00 - 10 minutes - 5.25 MBit is so easy today to do our own work, both in the ways of this world and even in the ministry of the church. but there is nothing in the bible which tells us to do our own thing, or where God sets us places of work here and there, but rather that we are all to be as one body in Jesus Christ. Now, he does send each of us to different places and man, when they willing choose to fully submit and obey God, is not able to dictate how and where we are to work, as long as we are fully doing the ...
Multiple lessons: Is God's or Man/Woman's words guiding you?
December 28, 2012 01:00 - 19 minutes - 9.18 MBWe are living in the time when the spirit of antichrist is strong upon those who are still earth dwellers and may know his time of his 3.5 years of leadership on this earth is near, and his workers of iniquity are busying trying to keep American believers in strongholds which are of the devil instead of fully enjoying God's stronghold of freedom and true life. Though this is never to be our home, we are commanded to be his lampstands on this earth. As this government grows, so does the de...
Is Jesus Christ first in every area of your life?
November 03, 2012 01:00 - 55 minutes - 13 MBThere are many scripture passages which are being mentioned here. But to the best of my limited ability, but instead, my full trust and obedience in hearing God regarding the main lesson, believe this message, not only for myself (ouch) but for most all of us, in this blessed nation of America we are temporarily living it. Warning: God is doing some pruning here through his refining fire. Don't run as it is the only way, by the work of Jesus Christ on the cross to get into the kingdom o...
Dual lesson: Are you under God's or Man's calling?/Brethren: who hurt your feelings?
September 27, 2012 01:00 - 17 minutes - 4.33 MBFirst Lesson: Recall Jonah didn't obey God to preach the gospel to the Ninevites because he was raised under the belief, since they were the enemies of Israel, then no Israelite were to associate and speak with them. Is this not the way we are still practice our priesthood as God's saints in America. We all need to hear and listen to God, today, and repent, and many need to go preach where God originally called us to go. Lesson 2: Look around America and see the many church institutions...
What is the stronghold God is trying to remove?
August 23, 2012 01:00 - 11 minutes - 2.79 MBIt was interesting as God first gave me this lesson/message for, not just for myself, but I fully believe it is for yourself (if you are listening to this message and know The Lord Jesus Christ is your Lord AND Savior.) The word stronghold, actually spelled out in the King James as strong hold, only came up 1 time in the new testament. In the OT, the summary of the definition is a dwelling place. This sort of became more clear to me, as God made it clear with the preparation study for th...
God's Shaking, part 2: What's being made desolate around you?
August 22, 2012 01:00 - 21 minutes - 5.16 MBWhen God gave me the last message for us, his bride and church in America, I had no hint that he would add to it in this message. When God speaks something to us by his Word (the bible), just one time, it is still important for us to listen and receive it. However, when he speaks something multiple times and by different people, we best be stopping in our tracks and listen clearly. When we first become believers, genuine ones, he accepts us with all our baggage. But we are not to stay li...
Duel lesson: What storms has God taken u thru? and R u on going on this life journey too fast?
February 11, 2012 01:00 - 11 minutes - 5.45 MB1 lesson: Earthly storms will come into our lives for different reasons. The devil wants them to kill us before we get saved or before we complete God's ministry. God allows them to strengthen our faith in him and so all those around us, see his great love for us and for them, showing where our hope, trust and faith is in The Lord Jesus Christ alone. The devil will provide ways around the storm, but when God wants us to go somewhere, he may raise up a storm to get us there. Other verse...
Are we acting like a pharisee or like Jesus Christ?
January 30, 2012 01:00 - 33 minutes - 15.7 MBOther verses mentioned in this short lesson: 1 Samuel 3:2-3, Luke 24:32, Galatians 1:10, 1 Corinthians 10:33, Romans 8:28, John 12:43. We have just one way to walk/live and this is the narrow way, God's way, thru the work of Jesus Christ on the cross and through his death, burial, resurrection and ascension back to his throne in heaven. Everyday we are faced with the devil's temptation to either wake up and live per Man's/Woman's standards and requirements or God's. God's transfor...
Why are we still doing things the world's way?
January 14, 2012 01:00 - 4 minutes - 2.16 MBOther passages mentioned in this short message and lesson are: Romans 12:1-2, John 15:1-2, and Jeremiah 18:3-6. The amazing thing of being a true believer in Jesus Christ is the way he shows himself to me, each day, in ways to grow us in our personal relationship. A personal relationship which is meant to lead us out wards to desiring more and more to tell others about him. Sort of the way a wife and husband are to brag about each other to the world. But, to just say we are in a per...
Is God dwelling within you and transforming you into his image?
December 25, 2011 01:00 - 1 hour - 29.8 MBPlease Note, I did realize there was an error in my words, which I have confessed and repented of, and it was where I stated that some of the church of God will be left on this earth when he comes in the clouds for us. This is not correct. The true church of God, those who are born again, will all be taken away just prior to the 7 period of time for God's wrath to be poured out on this dying earth. Forgive me for this, but as I listened to this message again, this is all that God showed me...
Are you being taught the word of God or the opinions of Man?
November 24, 2011 01:00 - 1 hour - 35.3 MBThere are several different messages and applications for different people. The main application point, I believe God would have us learn is to love him with all our being, is the love all of his words. they are not a burden to us, but the exact way we are to live out life on a daily basis.
ministry prayer request & encouragement
October 23, 2011 01:00 - 10 minutes - 4.85 MBThis was placed on my heart and in my spirit by God 2 years ago and is still relevant. Not so much as a commandment of God, though there are commandments of his included here as lessons for all of us...more so, beginning with myself regarding the past 6 years, in the 7th year, but especially the past 3 years. I thank you for your direct prayers, coming in agreement with those of The Lord Jesus Christ and may his grace even more abound to you and may he add to your eternal account in heave...
What is your treasure?
October 23, 2011 01:00 - 53 minutes - 12.5 MBToday in America and for, perhaps, the past 40 years or so, money has become our god, particularly in the church. For those still in the world, this is not surprising, but for those who claim they are believers (perhaps? they only know of Jesus and have not yet come to truly KNOW Jesus Christ?, only God knows this,) this is surprising. Listen and please, as God may lead to be obedient to correct me in an area. You are free to give your opinions and I will always take the time to read and/o...
Will you stop walking in your ancestors religious ways?
October 21, 2011 00:00 - 55 minutes - 12.7 MBSo many believers in America are still walking in their family's religion instead of stepping into a personal relationship with Jesus, for themselves. And because of this, we are seeing that same religion, but denying the power of God being done, still, in America.
