Friend, mankind individually thinks of itself as correct in all it's computations of what life is all about.

Many cannot bring themselves to believe in God or His Son, because they have formed the opinion that it is weak to believe in something that cannot be seen nor fully explained.

Others have been hurt by "spiritually minded" individuals, and place the blame squarely on a God they do not believe in.

Some choose to worship in one or some, of the many religions of the world that are demonically inspiried to fool us; to keep us tangled in cults and beliefs in many gods, or self, and ways of working our way to Nirvana, or reincarnation. 

By our own self wisdom and through learning about systems on peacefully inspired living, like Buddhisim, we are enticed into stepping on the wheel of neverending "must do" rituals, designed to fool us into working our way to God.

By engaging in these other religious activities and beliefs we separate ourselves from God Almighty creator of our souls.

We are allowing our soul to be deceived. We want God to see how good we are; we're peaceful, we're considerate, we eat no meat, we never swear and we do all the prayer rituals, we honor the spiritual elders, bowing to them as if they are deity.

This is The Truth; God knows the author of those ritualistic religions, and he does not approve of them, or give us any credit for following them.

This is what God says to us in Jeremiah 9:23-24 in the Old Testament

Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, let not the mighty man glory in his might, let not the rich man glory in his riches; but let him who glories glory in this, that he understands and knows Me, that I AM The Lord who practises steadfast Love, Justice, and Righteousness in the earth; for in these things I delight, says The Lord. 

We must embrace fully, His call on our life; let Him show us how to forgive those who have misled us, those who have hurt us, those who have angered us.

We're all in the same condition before God. 

Either we're Blood Covered by believing in His Son, or we're not. That's the only difference that God sees.

Choose Jesus and He will Forgive past, present and future sins and renew your heart and mind into Perfect Holy Alignment with Him, as you walk through this life.

You'll have a Helper and Counsellor of Infinite Knowledge and Intelligence; The Knower of All Things.

He will be your Friend, Confidant, Healer, Teacher; anything you need; He is pre- knowing all things concerning you.

We can speak to Him as if He is right beside us, because He has given to us His Holy Spirit as an immediate First Responder, who takes our needs before the throne of Grace and Mercy, and pleads our case to receive the resolution for our personal life here on earth.  

He is our Advocate Most Supreme and Perfect Whom The Father welcomes, and from Whom receives all requests.

Why wouldn't any human want this One of Power and Holy Love as their God?

He conquered the satanic realm at The Cross. They're just using up their alloted probationary time until the day of sentencing; according to the Will of God.

Friend, so many of us have severe schisms in our families caused by a myriad of troubles.

Many of us have been not wanted as children; others abused emotionally and physically.

The causes are often from involvement in mind and mood altering substances.

Parents who made a committment before God to care for each other til death, now are at odds and even hate is in the air.

There are so many scenarios; each individual to family dynamics, and previous generational choices from both parents, and their parents and so on.

But yet knowing these things would come about, God has told us in His Word to "love and honour your parents."

Friend, it cannot be done with a settled heart on the matter without the intervention of Jesus into the heart and mind.

Because we are so hurt. We carry, anger even hate, bitterness, we hold onto the bad memories because we don't want them to be exposed and in many cases it's the only way we know to cope with our circumstances.

By doing this we will not forgive, but God says, "Honor parents." 

They gave us life. Even if life is hard, here we are. We're on earth and we can make choices for each day and the future.

At some point we leave parents and strike out on our own but God says to remember to "Honor parents."

When we've had good parents who gave and sacrificed for us, it is easy to honor our parents, but even then we should be sure to not abandon them in their aged years as a form on honor.

Always at all times, "Honor parents." That's the Command, The Word, from our Maker.

And that Word points to Him as well; for He is our Father in Heaven.

"That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him." John 5:23 KJV

Yes, we must honor God at all times, and in all ways.

When we understand that Jesus was a Holy God Ordained Sacrifice for each and every one of them (those parents,) as well as ourselves, while we were all sinners; to make a New Way - out of the evil bondages into the arms of The Father for safekeeping in His Kingdom; we are able to forgive also.

Jesus paid the Price for us, so we could forgive others, and we should; because we are Forgiven.

If He can do what He did at The Cross, to pay a Price for Forgiveness to be ours, there is not one reason that Father God will accept from us; ignorance, abuse, disabilities, lack, for our own sins, if we cannot forgive others; even parents. who have been less than.

"Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord." Colossians 3:20 KJV

Friend, God's Word likens humans to captives which are in need of being set free.

If God by His Holy Spirit is telling us this; then we must realise that we are not His captives.

By His Perfect Knowledge of all things He says we are captives.

In His Word He says that we are captives of evil; which is owned by satan.

Some of us are willing participators in evil works with satan, so do not see ourselves as captive; but captive we are, for our soul's ultimate Owner is the Creator of it, Almighty God and He is telling us we are held captive by something other than Himself.

However at any time whilst we are still alive in the flesh, we have the Holy Right; because of Jesus's Death and Resurrection, to make a leap of faith, and choose to follow Him when we come to realise The Holy Truth.

This one choice, will free us from the chains that hold us captive.

That choice for Jesus is life changing when it is a heart decision.

Perhaps you've been dabbling in the evil ways; perhaps you have a certain power over others because of your evil ways, perhaps you have found camraderie with other like minded searching souls.

Perhaps you have an itch in your heart that you actively cover with the lusts of the evil realm to soothe yourself; but you know deep in your heart that you're on a slippery slope, and it seems unlikely you will be able to get off, and so, you go whole hog at the evil delights.

Some indulge so much that they use others terribly; secretly abusing them in every way yet living "normally" to the outside world; hiding in plain sight!

Well, God knows it all.

It's on your account.

Nothing is hid.

Yet He places some blame on satan and his dominion; the fallen angels, and has made a Holy Lawful Way for you to extricate yourself from satan.

At any moment, you can say, I've had enough. 

Jump ship so to speak.

From The Cross at Calvary, Jesus has His hand out to you. 

He's saying, "I Am willingly paying the Price required by The Holy Law of My Father, for you to be Redeemed.

You can be with Me in Paradise after this life.

I Am The Word Who created you, gave you life. I love what I have created.

All your sins are being nailed to the Cross and I am paying for them by your own hand that helped weild the hammer.

Through God's Grace and Mercy My Blood will cleanse you from your sins, and they will be remembered no more, if you by your free will choose Me. 

You are on the other side of a Great Chasm that separates Good from evil. I have laid my body down, paid The Price, for you to walk over from the evil side, to God's Glorious Kingdom.

Forgiven!

I have completed the Divine Purpose, and The Law has been satisfied, and you have a choice."

Friend, our Father knows us deeply; in our innermost hiding places, He is able to read our thoughts.

There is nothing hid from Him.

He knows the why and wherefores of every choice we make.

He had a Plan for us before we were born; according to His preknowledge of our soul.

Yet He also gave to each soul the Holy Gift of free will to make it's own choices. In those choices, He will weave our story according to His Holy Law; into His Great Plan for All Things; gently proving His Goodness and Soverignty; but if at the time of our death, we haven't chosen His Way and Will for us, thereby showing Love and Respect for Him, we, having self willed our own existence, we will be of no use to His Kingdom anymore. 

For self will, ego is the domain of satan and he will claim our soul and God will allow that for it is our choice.

Our soul will have chosen with full knowledge of what they have done, (even though professing something different to the world,) the path to death; the path away from the Presence and Love of God; Father, Son and Spirit.

God calls that "foolishness."

We're not playing our own game here on earth. We're not the champion of the world. 

We're actually in God's creation. He's not in ours. 

We're subject to the Laws of Who He Is.

And, He is Good. Above all in thought, ability, knowledge.

He is the Maker of every Law. Law which upholds all good things.

There would be no Light without Him. Only darkness and chaotic wilfulness would remain.

Every scientific fact we find is a very tiny of a part of the Whole; of Who He Is. 

When we can agree with these facts; that God has to be these things in order to have the Highest Place of Power and Knowledge; we should desire to know more about Him.

In His Word we find many things about Him which could and will keep us spiritually entertained for many lifetimes!

In His Word He speaks to us, and because He is Pure; every Word is a Truth; a Holy Promise.

Jesus having taken on the human form and lived among us has a complete understanding of all of our needs from shelter, food, water, clothing, family bonds, friends, and the ability to be free of oppression, disease and corruption.

Having been tempted by satan in the wildreness He also knows the full ugliness of evil. He understands fully our human condition yet He also understands the reason we are here, and this is why He so willingly came to save us; because we were so lost from our first condition in the Garden, where we knew God intimately.

Psalms 23:1-6 - (A Psalm of David.) The LORD is my Shepherd; I shall not want.  

Psalms 37:4 - Delight thyself also in the LORD; and He shall give thee the desires of thine heart.

Jeremiah 29:11 - For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of Peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. 

John 3:16 - For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

John 15:7-8 - If ye abide in Me, and My Words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. 

Romans 8:28 - And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His Purpose.

2 Corinthians 1:20 - For all the promises of God in Him are yea, and in Him Amen, unto the glory of God by us.

Philippians 4:6-9 - Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.  

Philippians 4:19 - But my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

2 Peter 1:4 - Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the Divine Nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.

The Bible when read, is found to be full of perfect answers to our problems.

In it we find Words that convict us in our soul, of the wrong path we are on; Words of comfort; advice for daily living; how to have peace in our homes, encouragement for providing for our families; prayers to say to God.  

And in The Holy Bible, Jesus by The Spirit speaks, to our hearts and minds, in a supernatural spiritual way, to encourage us to continue seeking Him, to continue having a personal communication with Himself.

He tells us there is a place for us in His Kingdom, but we must be cleansed from all unrighteousness, (sin.)

He shows us that He made a Way that is approved of by The Father, for us to be cleansed from sin. 

He demonstrates that He is Trustworthy; not a liar, and points out who the liar is. (satan.)  

He proves His Love for our soul, which He tells us, is created by Him, and given specifically to each of us individually. 

We're not random blobs. We have a Divine Purpose to fulfill.

Friend, we believers have a Comforter for our soul's journey on this earth.

He is able to calm the raging seas of doubt and confusion; He surrounds us in the fires as a shield, we will not be singed though we find ourselves in a fire for a season.

When we focus on our Lord, The Comforter is ours to hold onto. He is present here on earth at our Lord's Good Pleasure as a Helper of mankind to show The Way, to reveal Jesus The Christ of God to us individually in our spirit.

Holy Spirit to mankind's individual spirit man. 

He works in the supernatural realm. He is knowable to us by our soul's heart.

He works to break the hardened shell, the brick walls we have put up to keep out harm.

He sees supernaturally the darkness within us and has the Answers we need. 

First is to shine God's Holy Light into the cracks He makes. That Light drives out darkness.

In the Light, we experience God's Love for us.

In the Light, many things are revealed to us.

We find Truth. We desire to know what He has to say; we begin to read His Word.

All these things come from The Holy Spirit who loves us and is gentle and all knowing.

He will run to anyone who is curious about who Jesus is; anyone who desires to know God's Truth; anyone who is totally spent and has no willpower to move into Heavenly thinking.

The Spirit says "come all ye who are weary and I will give you rest."

Friend, Happy New Year to you!

Every year we get to think ahead for a bright and hope filled future; for we do not know the future in any way; which way it will go for us.

Depending on our outlook on life we may think "Oh just another dud of a year is coming my way; look at my current circumstances; nothing good will eventuate!" 

Or, we can choose to be filled with hope and determined to have a peace-filled year; to work hard, to greet others with respect no matter who they are; to forgive past grudges, and deeds done against us.

As a born again, spirit filled Bible believing Christian I have a knowing in my heart that God is Good and that I am on a Holy Path that leads to Everlasting Life with Him; belonging to Him in His Kingdom of which is all creation. My thoughts are full of Hope because I know The One who died for my sinful nature to be Holy, by Holy Law, Forgiven.

I know that even if sickness or unforseen tragedies befall me, I will always have Hope; knowing He is the calmer of storms; the healer of the ills of mankind, the provider of all my earthly and spiritual needs, the wise one who will guide me to Truth, Love and Peace.

Knowing these things, sets me free from worry and anxiety. It allows me to focus on "The One Who Loves" me.

He went willingly to The Cross, to be a Holy Sacrifice, to pay the price required, for me to be Forgiven. Before I had asked Him to forgive me, before I had repented of my sins; He did this for me (and for you.)

While I was a sinner, He offered Himself up to be Sacrificed, for His Blood to flow on the earth; so that one day, when I was ready to repent, The Grand Offer, would be available for me to receive; completed in totality for all sinners and all sin if they chose to accept The Holy Offer.

We were on Their Mind, (Father, Son, Spirit) when the Plan was made in Heaven with The Father; for Jesus The Son, to come to earth to be God's Holy Sacrifice; to suffer the punishment for all sin, the weight of which no-one else could bear; the blood of no-one else was Pure enough; being already sinfilled.

We were chosen. Mankind, God's Creation because He called it Good and He will make it Good again. We have served a Purpose and the sin which we willingly undertook will be wiped out according to His Plan.

Only The Holy Blood would suffice to appease The Holy Law. This Holy Sacrifice has not been offered to Satan and his followers. Only mankind.

No blood of unclean animals would ever suffice to pay for the sins of all souls; as was used in The Temple in Jerusalem as a sign, to The Jews, that God required blood, for the payment for their sins.

The Jews showed their knowledge and acknowledgement of their sinful natures by bringing the purest unspotted animals to be slaughtered for their sins every year, knowing according to The Old Covenant, they would receive Forgiveness for their past year's sins.

Other sects and nations, creeds and so forth, knew that Pure Holy Blood was the only good sacrifice, and employed blood sacrifices (babies, innocent children, virgins,) also but those were instituted by Satan and they were sacrificing to him as if he were holy.

A New Covenant was needed. It had been built into God's Plan for mankind from the beginning, should man fall into the hands of evil, because we were placed on the earth safe from evil in The Garden of Eden; but yet, evil had a certain dominion over the earth as well, and man fell for it's charms - even though God had spoken to them about the fruit of that certain tree; "DO NOT EAT THEREOF." (Danger, Poison, Detour, Not good for you!)

Man could still be prospering in the Garden of Eden following the Holy Trajectory of Good but man chose something else. He listened and followed satan, instead of The Good God, that Adam and Eve knew intimately; and that caused our fall from God's Perfect Holy Law. Because we are of the family of Adam and Eve of whom sin entered the whole human experience thereafter. (That's what God was warning them about; sin would go into all generations, all flesh, all the earth.) 

Through Adam and Eve the earth itself has become sin infected; and all it's Perfection has been downgraded by sin infection.

This New Year you could have Hope from above, Peace from above, there could be Joy from above in your life, Wisdom could guide you, a New Path with a Friend who never sleeps and Loves your soul and spirit could be yours, and most of all; you could know what Holy Forgiveness is like.

Seek Salvation for your sin nature that tempts you and causes sorrow and pain. May this be the year of your Holy Redemption back to the One Who gave you the soul that is eternal and subject to Holy Law either the Old Covenant or The New Covenant.

We can choose to accept the New Covenant brought for us with The Father's Son's Blood.

Mankind has that Right because of Jesus Who paid The Lawful Price with His own flesh and blood.

It's just a matter of believing in your heart that Jesus died for you to have a New Life; and saying "Yes, Lord, I believe. Help me."
