Avoid Those Who Seek To Justify Sin

One thing I have found through the years, since I have been saved, is that those who condone, excuse, and justify sin, in the lives of others, within the body of Christ, have hidden sin in their own lives that they justify to themselves. They think God does not know and is not going to judge, He is, and His judgment will begin with His body.

All that condone sin, shall held accountable for leading people astray from the truth of the Word of God!

I ask you brethren, Leaders, "Do you really want to be responsible for the eternal torment of anyones soul?"

I ask those in sin amongst the brethren, "Why do you hate the Truth so much?"........ it is the Truth that is able to set you free........

This is not the hour, to justify our sins, or anyone elses saints, it is time to repent and turn from our sins. This is the hour in which God is moving, to cleanse and purify His body, and for some it shall not be pleasant, because no chastisement of the Lord is pleasant for the moment.

Saints there are wicked leaders, active amongst the saints of God, seeking whom they can recruit for their own ends, for their own profit. They say to the wicked man, you are right with God, when the wicked man is set to perish in his sin.

The wicked also, seek out those who will justify their sin, and tell them what they want to hear, those who will tickle their ears.

Generally those amongst the brethren, who are in sin, will surround themselves with the luke warm, those who have besetting sin active in their lives.

Beware saints, and try the spirit's of men, ask God for discernment, ask Him to reveal the wicked amongst the brethren.

There are many who on the surface seem Godly, they lift themselves up in the eyes of men, when they are base people, with only a form of Godliness. They are drunken on their own knowledge, intelligence, and ability to draw sheep unto themselves. They are full of every wicked thing, they have mean, spiteful, vindictive, unloving, gossiping, unforgiving and vain hearts, they are full of dead men's bones and pride, and they lack the pure love of God.

Some, God has tried to deal with, but they are self assured people who have hardened their hearts, and chosen to continue in their own ways, thinking themselves to be accepted of God. They are not. Their hearts are not clean before the Lord, and He has found them guilty and He shall spew them out, He shall cut them off, lest they humble themselves and be quick to repent!

God's word says that if any amongst us is in active, blatant sin, and who refuse to turn from it, we are to put that one out from amongst us.

1 Corinthians 5: 9-13
9. I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with fornicators:
10. Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world.
11. But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat.
12. For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not ye judge them that are within?
13. But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.

Men are not to gather disciples after themselves, rather they are to be examples, and say, "Follow me as I follow Christ."

The Lord is Great And Mighty And Greatly To Be Praised!

I just wanted to let those of you who are holding us up in prayer, that the Lord is moving in one particular situation, though it be small, it is yet great. It is only by the hand of Almighty God, who is able to move on the hearts of all men. Please continue to hold this situation up before our God in prayer, and may the Lord bless you all who have a heart to bear the burdens of the brethren.

We must rejoice in all things, as the Lord has made even the worst of days and the worst of times for our eternal Good.

The True Location of The Ark of The Covenant!

Satan desires not only that we be filled with fear doubt, and despair, but that we be turned from the Truth of God's Word by lies.

Saints the closer we get to the end of all things, the greater the lies will become, to deceive if it were possible even the very elect of God!

I saw the story at the link above today, claiming that "The Ark of The Covenant" which is said to have be hidden in a Roman catholic church (the church of "our lady") in Ethiopia for centuries, is going to be revealed in Rome today..... this is a satanic deception, do not be deceived saints, even if an angel from heaven appear unto you, if he preach another gospel, let even he be accursed...The Ark of The Covenant is in Heaven....Rome desires to be a deceiver of many, even of Israel!

Revelation 19:11
And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail.

We shared a video which has since been removed, and a blog which has not been removed, on "The Ark of The Covenant" back in 7/24/08 http://justtomakeyouthink.blogspot.com/2008/07/ark-of-covenant-answers-in-word.html

The Lord is Gracious and Full of Tender Mercies-Nothing is Impossible with God!!!!

As many of you know I am travailing for a specific need for someone today, it is a dire need, it is a need that seems impossible, beyond impossible, it is a need that requires nothing short of divine deliverance.

As I was praying outside this morning (to the sceptics for what I am about to relate, sorry, but it happened) I opened my Bible and laid my hands out on it, and started to travail in prayer. I was begging God for His Great Mercy and deliverance for someone.

I reminded God of all the great deliverance's He did for His people parting the red sea, moving on the heart of Pharaoh, sending the plagues, retreating the plagues, showing His great Mercy to a people who were not deserving, to a people who continuously turned their backs on him......and I prayed and prayed crying out to Him for quite some time .... and then I took my glasses off my head, put them on, looked down to the pages that were opened, that I had been resting my hands on, and noticed with awe that the Bible was opened to Nehemiah chapter 9..... For those of you who are not familiar with that particular chapter let me share a little of it with you. It relates to all the great and mighty things that God did for His people, who continuously turned back to wickedness, yet he continued to show his great Mercy to them, time, and time and time again.

9. And didst see the affliction of our fathers in Egypt, and heardest their cry by the Red sea;

10. And showedst signs and wonders upon Pharaoh, and on all his servants, and on all the people of his land: for thou knewest that they dealt proudly against them. So didst thou get thee a name, as it is this day.

11. And thou didst divide the sea before them, so that they went through the midst of the sea on the dry land; and their persecutors thou threwest into the deeps, as a stone into the mighty waters.

12. Moreover thou leddest them in the day by a cloudy pillar; and in the night by a pillar of fire, to give them light in the way wherein they should go.

13. Thou camest down also upon mount Sinai, and spakest with them from heaven, and gavest them right judgments, and true laws, good statutes and commandments.

15. And gavest them bread from heaven for their hunger, and broughtest forth water for them out of the rock for their thirst, and promisedst them that they should go in to possess the land which thou hadst sworn to give them.

16. But they and our fathers dealt proudly, and hardened their necks, and hearkened not to thy commandments,

17. And refused to obey, neither were mindful of thy wonders that thou didst among them; but hardened their necks, and in their rebellion appointed a captain to return to their bondage: but thou art a God ready to pardon, gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and forsookest them not.

18. Yea, when they had made them a molten calf, and said, This is thy God that brought thee up out of Egypt, and had wrought great provocations;

19. Yet thou in thy manifold mercies forsookest them not in the wilderness: the pillar of the cloud departed not from them by day, to lead them in the way; neither the pillar of fire by night, to show them light, and the way wherein they should go.

20. Thou gavest also thy good spirit to instruct them, and withheldest not thy manna from their mouth, and gavest them water for their thirst.

21. Yea, forty years didst thou sustain them in the wilderness, so that they lacked nothing; their clothes waxed not old, and their feet swelled not.

Then they multiplied and God gave them lands and they became increased with goods and had need of nothing, and they delighted themselves in God's goodness to them.

26. Nevertheless they were disobedient, and rebelled against thee, and cast thy law behind their backs, and slew thy prophets which testified against them to turn them to thee, and they wrought great provocations.

27. Therefore thou deliveredst them into the hand of their enemies, who vexed them: and in the time of their trouble, when they cried unto thee, thou heardest them from heaven; and according to thy manifold mercies thou gavest them saviours, who saved them out of the hand of their enemies.

28. But after they had rest, they did evil again before thee: therefore leftest thou them in the hand of their enemies, so that they had the dominion over them: yet when they returned, and cried unto thee, thou heardest them from heaven; and many times didst thou deliver them according to thy mercies;

29. And testifiedst against them, that thou mightest bring them again unto thy law: yet they dealt proudly, and hearkened not unto thy commandments, but sinned against thy judgments, (which if a man do, he shall live in them;) and withdrew the shoulder, and hardened their neck, and would not hear.

30. Yet many years didst thou forbear them, and testifiedst against them by thy spirit in thy prophets: yet would they not give ear: therefore gavest thou them into the hand of the people of the lands.

31. Nevertheless for thy great mercies’ sake thou didst not utterly consume them, nor forsake them; for thou art a gracious and merciful God.

When I was finished with my travailing for the moment, I asked God for a word of conformation, of assurance, and I came inside intent on sharing what He had already given me, and I happened to check my e-mail and see David Wilkerson devotional, and read it..... and was in awe of God once again! His Great Mercy is endless! Please take time to read his devotion for today. You will find the link to his devotionals on the right hand side of this blog.

Please continue to hold me and all my family up in prayer...I will share what God does in this situation....I Praise Him for what He is going to do!!!

The Purging Process-That You Might Come Forth As Gold

Saints as the day of the Lord draws closer we are all going to be purged, purging is painful, excruciating, draining, life sapping. At times you may not feel like God is even hearing your prayers. You may fast and pray and cry out to Him, and yet see no answer.

We must trust though we see no answer. Or perhaps the answer we see is not what we had in mind we must understand and believe that God is in control.

God is testing His saints, He is refining us, He is preparing us as Gold is prepared in a furnace...He is melting us that He may conform us to His image...He is melting us that we might be made white....It may seem that God has forsaken you, but look up for your redemption draweth nigh, and it shall be worth it all saints.....Remember He is with you in your fire....He will never leave you or forsake you....He loves you with an everlasting love....

For so long, the feel good preachers, and prophets, have been telling the saints, oh you don't have to suffer, God wants you to be rich, you will see no sorrow, you will be whisked out of the earth one day before any bad stuff happens.... Well saints that was all lies.....there is suffering involved in bearing your cross daily and following in Christs steps...all who live Godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution, shall be tried and tested.... Any time we have to lay our selves down, and become 100% dependant upon the Lord, just to get our heads off the pillow because our burdens are so heavy, and get through the day because we know others depend on us, that God depends on us ...that's suffering, and all saints will go through these times. These times will increase as the day draws nearer because God will make us white!

We must trust God no matter what situations look like, we must take one day at a time, sometimes one hour at a time, and trust God, knowing that Satan wants to defeat us and bring us to the place of utter despair. We must remember we are not alone in our suffering.

The Lord lead me to this Word this morning:

Daniel 11:33-35

33. And they that understand among the people shall instruct many: yet they shall fall by the sword, and by flame, by captivity, and by spoil, many days.

34. Now when they shall fall, they shall be holpen with a little help: but many shall cleave to them with flatteries.

35. And some of them of understanding shall fall, to try them, and to purge, and to make them white, even to the time of the end: because it is yet for a time appointed.

Now we know this is written about the nation of Israel, but the Word says that all scripture is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, and for instruction in righteousness.

2 Timothy 3:16-17

16. All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.

17. That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.

This morning the Lord showed me that I am being purged, it is not pleasant, it is extremely painful. It may seem like there is little help, but the Lord is in these things, and although I feel as if I can not even breath for grieving, for the souls around me, I must fight on for the Lord, I must do what He has called me to do. I must not loose my focus.

The situations that are taking place in the lives of my family members, yes yet even more has occurred...and both situations look impossible-But for God-I covet your prayers. Satan knows what is most dear to us, and he goes after what is most dear to us, to steal, kill and destroy...that's his favorite past time, in fact his only past time.

Things are only going to heat up saints, so don't think these things to be strange and wonder why they are happening. If I can encourage you with this alone-Remember that if you are willing to suffer with Christ you shall also reign with Him in eternity!

Woe Unto Those Who Take Council But Not Of Me Saith The Lord!

No matter how wicked, vicious and evil, no matter how unthankful, unholy, unloving, and unforgiving, those around us may become, no matter how difficult and stressful our lives may get, no matter how much our hearts may break at what is happening in this hour, we must not loose our confidence in the Holy One of Israel.

No matter how much Satan opposes us, and seeks to oppress us, and steal our faith, we must stand confident in the fact that God is able to do all things, and do them well. We must remember our lives are not about enjoyment but endurance.

God has Himself moved through mysterous ways over the ages to preserve His Word for us, that we may know the day and the hour in which we are living, and the way in which we are to walk.

Isaiah 30:1-3

1. Woe to the rebellious children, saith the LORD, that take counsel, but not of me; and that cover with a covering, but not of my spirit, that they may add sin to sin:

Many today run to councilors for comfort, reassurance and instruction, instead of first seeking God. Many do not deem Him able to solve their problems. They seek out those who will tell them what they want to hear, not what they need to hear. They seek those who will medicate them out of their misery.

If we are to take council it must be of one whom we know will council us from the Truth of The Word of God.

Those who choose not to seek God, take shelter and comfort and the source of their joy through ungodly means. They neglect seeking the covering of the Holy Spirit, who is able to give us a supernatural covering to combat all the arrows that Satan lobs our way. The covering of the Holy Spirit is able to keep us calm in the midst of the storm, to give us peace that passes all understanding when others are falling apart.

2. That walk to go down into Egypt, and have not asked at my mouth; to strengthen themselves in the strength of Pharaoh, and to trust in the shadow of Egypt!

We are not to trust in those of the world, or the government, or the world system, to come to our aid, rather than seeking and trusting God to strengthen and provide for us.

3. Therefore shall the strength of Pharaoh be your shame, and the trust in the shadow of Egypt your confusion.

Governments shall fail, as we see all around us now, and the government which many millions have put there trust in here shall fall, but God will never fail.

Isaiah was told to write down what God was telling him because it was not just to be applied to those of his time, but for the time yet to come for ever and ever.

Isaiah 30:8-16

8. Now go, write it before them in a table, and note it in a book, that it may be for the time to come for ever and ever:

9. That this is a rebellious people, lying children, children that will not hear the law of the LORD:

10. Which say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Prophesy not unto us right things, speak unto us smooth things, prophesy deceits:

11. Get you out of the way, turn aside out of the path, cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from before us.

Again the Lord speaks of the rebellious who turn out of the narrow path who refuse the council of The Most High God. Those who do not want to hear the Word of the Lord, those who prefer to hear what they want to hear.

12. Wherefore thus saith the Holy One of Israel, Because ye despise this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness, and stay thereon:

Those who trust in their own fleshly lusts, and who choose to stay bound by the lies of this world and put their trust in the arm of the flesh, shall fail!

Sin brings oppression and perverseness.....turning from God and His truth brings oppression and perverseness...Those bound by opression, often themselves become oppressors.

13. Therefore this iniquity shall be to you as a breach ready to fall, swelling out in a high wall, whose breaking cometh suddenly at an instant.

14. And he shall break it as the breaking of the potters’ vessel that is broken in pieces; he shall not spare: so that there shall not be found in the bursting of it a sherd to take fire from the hearth, or to take water withal out of the pit.

Ye who take council but that not of the Lord, He shall break you like he would a piece of pottery. Those who are not willing to trivail before God until He moves in their lives, will have time for travailing when it is to late......

15. For thus saith the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel; In returning and rest shall ye be saved; in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength: and ye would not.

16. But ye said, No; for we will flee upon horses; therefore shall ye flee: and, We will ride upon the swift; therefore shall they that pursue you be swift.

All Ye who refuse the council of the Lord shall be consumed. Because you have refused Him, He has put a bridle in your jaws and He is causing you to err.

God is controlling nations, and stirring them to war. He who created all things is angry, and is about to sift the wicked nations, His tongue is a devouring fire.

A Message To The Luke Warm Apostate Church

The Lord has used me, one of his donkeys, to share His words with the church at different times. I have been mocked, called a gloom and doomer, ridiculed, and flatly rebuked by one pastor. In these things I rejoiced, as it is to be expected when God has something he wants to share, through one of his children, and the church doesn't want to acknowledge, or hear it.

The following was a word the Lord gave me on 5/1/1993. After praying for God to use me, and asking the Lord to let me feed more people, and telling Him I would say whatever He told me to say, I was not expecting the following!

"Stand therefore before the door of my House
and Prophesy saith The Lord......

There is a day coming when they shall seek me,
but they shall not find me.....

For when I called they would not answer,
when I sought them, they would not be found of Me.....

Therefore saith The Lord, They shall cry unto me,
but I shall not be found of them......

For as they have forsaken me,
so shall I forsake them in the day of trouble....."

The message was delivered to the church that I attended at that time. I should mention here that this was a church who's pastor told me when in a discussion on the last days, that the Antichrist did not even have to come, the book of revelation didn't have to come to pass, we could just pray it away. I was told that I was sounding just like David Wilkerson, only he meant it in a derogatory manner. He told me that is why David Wilkerson had been put out of the Assemblies of God because he was too negative to gloom and doom...I don't know if that is true..but God bless brother Wilkerson!
This was a pastor who wanted to take his whole congregation into the local Catholic church for joint worship services.
This was a pastor who brought in an evangelist from, I believe it was Ireland, who told me in a Sunday school class, when in discussion about Mother Teressa, and the catholic church, the following, "Who do you think you are, I'll have you know that the Pope is born again, and Spirit filled."
When asked if that were the case, why did the Pope not come out and tell the people the truth, his exact answer was..."Well you know how it is in the Assemblies of God, he doesn't want to upset their doctrine."......blatently absurd!!! and I might say devishly deceptive. I believe the man to have been an actual apologist for the Roman Catholic church.

This was also a church that was begged to keep standing against abortion, the shedding of innocent blood, in the city of Wichita, and who would not be moved by the pleas.

Sometimes I would ask the Lord, "Oh, Lord couldn't you give me something, "nice" to say," it would be so much easier just to be a pew sitter."

But you know what? I would rather say what the Lord tells me to say, whether it gains me friends or not! ............Our lives are not about pleasing men but pleasing God!

Oh people of God, make Him your priority, make Him your number one, make Him your all in all, before it is too late, and the door is closed, for surely the times of the gentiles are fast coming to a close.....

Currently, America is hanging by a thread, and fast approaching a possible nuclear Holocaust....

As a child of God you have nothing to fear, if God chooses this time to bring you into His eternal presence, you will go from this world into His presence in a flash...remember ...to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord....we need not fear for our small children, and be overwhelmed with worry, God shall overshadow them, and usher them into His Glory! He created them, and He shall overshadow them, by His Holy Spirit as He did Stephen.

Remember the disciples longed to be free of this present earth, and be with Christ in Glory. They were not desperately looking for a place to hide from trouble....they looked forward to being in the presence of the Lord once again.

Don't listen to voices telling you to run here or move there...for there shall be no place to hide...only in Christ, and if necessary, He will open Heaven for you as He did for Stephen, He is the God of all Comfort! It is He that holds our lives in His hands, and we can place absolute trust in Him, He is the one who brought us into this world and He shall be the one to take us out!

As my grandma used to say, "Cheer up my dear, you'll soon be dead." Make the most of today saint of God for His Glory and not your own.

If you are luke warm and you are a part of the Apostate church, or if you are one of the leaders of the luke warm church .....be afraid be very afraid, and repent while there is yet time!
