They No Longer Teach the Truth.

 He answered and said to them, “Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written: ‘This people honors Me with their lips, But their heart is far from Me. And in vain they worship Me, Teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’ For laying aside the commandment of God, you hold the tradition of men. Mark 7:6-8 New King James Version Holy Bible

From my personal experience I believe this is too prevalent in todays churches. They teach the doctrine of man which is mainly teaching the folks what they want to hear not what they need to hear. As well it is contrary to Biblical teaching. They no longer teach the truth.

The Bible is the word of God, anything that is contrary to that is satanic. Joseph- Anthony: Green

Sorry you misguided souls but homosexuality is still filthy in Jehovahs eyes no matter what lies you teach.

Sorry folks but Jehovah is not there just to serve your every whim like ungrateful brats.

Sorry folks but you cannot just go out and live your life how ever you want and still be accepted by Jehovah. Just as Jehovah is spirit so too is worshipping Him in spirit (with your heart not your mouth) the only worship that is acceptable unto Him.

Sorry folks but there is a eternal damnation in hell so you cannot go out and live your life contrary to Biblical teachings and expect to get a free pass into Heaven because “Jesus loves you.”

I believe this is why so many churches are dead and dying a slow death, because their false doctrine is no different from the worlds. I have been in worldly churches that were almost empty and in churches that taught Biblical doctrine that were full and alive.

Prayer:Please Jehovah-‘Ori (the Lord is my Light)bless both individual Christians and churches today to teach and live by sound Biblical doctrine that will be the light that shines in a dark cold world so that others will be blessed with and amazing loving relationship with You. I humbly request this in the name of He who is the light of the world Jesus Christ. Amen.

May the sunshine of Jesus’ sweet love bless you today and every day.

Cleavet: I recently read an article that churches that teach Biblical doctrine numbers are increasing while the politically correct churches enrollment is declining.

Only if You Let It.

 

Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee; because he trusteth in thee. Holy Bible , American Standard Version

I am a caregiver for my elderly mother. She is extremely stubborn and independent. Because of health reasons she has lost a lot of her independence. This causes a lot of friction between us. Many times I feel like I am going to explode and I have to get away from her. The only thing to calm me down is a cigarette. As well she is stubborn and refuses to listen to listen to anyone. She is right and the whole world is wrong (even though she does not know what she is talking about). Then when things go south she always blames everyone but herself. I go almost a month without smoking and then she gets into one of her moods and look out. Then I need a cigarette and we do not talk with each other for a few days. This has been going on for three years. Each time I prayed for wisdom on how to handle her and then read an article on how a man was stressed out and was told that the reason for his stress was because only if you let it stress you out it will. Now that sounds reasonable but then how do you handle the situation? Later while reading the Bible this verse suck out to me: Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee; because he trusteth in thee. Holy Bible , American Standard Version

It makes perfect sense.

When stress comes I remove myself from the situation and allow it to drive me to my knees where I belong in prayer. And Jehovah answers my prayer with peace and strength.

Prayer: Thank you Jehovah-Machsi – Lord my Refuge for blessing me with the privilege of entering into Your holy sanctuary where You bless me with peace, healing, comfort and fortitude to carry on in my duties (duty is an act of love) to You and my mother. I praise You in the name of the Prince of Peace Jesus Christ. Amen.

May the sunshine of Jesus’ sweet love bless you today and every day.

 

Cleavet: It has taken a year and a half but mom has finally settled down and there is a lot less problems now. She has even begun going back to church regularly for the first time in forty years. I have almost kicked the nicotine habit and know by Gods grace one day it shall be permanently conquered.

Shall We not Accept Adversity?

 Shall we indeed accept good from God, and shall we not accept adversity?” Job 2:10 Holy Bible, New King James Version                                                                                  Sorry to bust the bubble of those who believe Jesus is a genie who only live to give us our hearts desires but when you are a true Christian expect to experience a lot of adversity in your walk to Heaven.                                                                                                                                                                                                               “Persecution for righteousness’ sake is what every child of God must expect.” Charles Simeon That however is a blessing not a curse.                                                                                                                                                                                                                        You see in my life this is the pattern that has been with me since my walk to Heaven began: The closer you get to Jehovah the more satan is going to torment you and persecute you in the belief that you will be weak and the suffering too strong and give up your walk with Christ.                                                                                                      That is partly true.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 We are weaker than satan but nothing or no one is stronger that Christ. So when persecution and hard times come it drives a Christian to our knees in prayer to Christ. He will abundantly supply us with the power to overcome. That in turn creates a heart that overflows with love and respect for Jesus which draws us closer to Him.                                The closer we get to Christ the more we are going to suffer. The more we suffer, the closer we get to Christ. Joseph- Anthony: Green                                                       When I was in Asia and informed Christians there that I was a Christian the first question they asked was:” How much have you suffered for Christ?”                            Returning to the west it is sad to say that the majority of so called Christians I have met are marshmallow Christians. They want the blessings of Christ but are not prepared to endure the sufferings.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         “The early church was married to poverty, prisons and persecutions. Today, the church is married to prosperity, personality, and popularity Leonard Ravenhill                Although I do not enjoy the suffering I am eternally grateful for them because it is through them that I have been blessed with a close intimacy with Jehovah, Jesus and the Holy Spirit that could not and would not have occurred any other way.                                                                                                                                                           Prayer: Thank you Jehovah-‘Uzam (The Lord is our Strength in Trouble) for blessing me with Your divine strength, comfort and peace during the times of satanic attack by his wicked disciples. I praise You in the name of He who defeated satan in the empty grave Jesus Christ. Amen.                                                                                                                                                                                                            May the sunshine of Jesus’ sweet love bless you today and every day.

The Lord Enlightened Me.

 

 “Behold, I send an Angel before you to keep you in the way and to bring you into the place which I have prepared.” Exodus 23:20 Holy Bible, New King James Version

The Lord enlightened me about Sammy.

He was our cat that was loved very much. He became so sick he had to be put down. I insisted upon staying with him during the whole event.

Jehovah questioned me as to why I stayed with him when he received the needle that would put him to sleep. My reply was because I loved him and wanted to be there to comfort and reassure him.

The Lord answered and explained to me that just like me dedication to Sammy was an act of love so too when nearing death He will send angels to comfort and reassure Christians that there is a beautiful home awaiting them in the next life as a dedication of love to His children.

Prayer: Thank you Jehovah Immanuel (God is with us) for blessing us Your beloved children with an angel to comfort and reassure us as our time on earth nears its completion and for guiding us into a much better world the angel escorts us to. I humbly praise You in the name of our big brother who will be there to greet us Jesus Christ. Amen.

May the sunshine of Jesus’ sweet love bless you today and every day.

A Christians First Request.

 

 

 “Not as I will, but as You will.” Matthew 26:39 Amplified Bible

A Christians first request every morning must be for wisdom, strength, meekness and humbleness be granted unto them in generous amounts to fulfill our Heavenly Fathers will to be done in all our words, thoughts and actions.

Guide my words to be filled with grace as I speak with truth in a loving manner. It may be difficult words to speak whether in reconciliation or whether in confronting someone who is engaging in wrongful behavior so that Jehovahs will, will be done.

Guide my hands to preform the daily task He has set before me no matter how menial or dirty so that Jehovahs will, will be done.

Guide me to obey His choices in my life whether it be in relationships, employment, finances and all other aspects of daily life so that Jehovahs will, will be done. Most times it will be difficult and some times costly but it is better to suffer doing Jehovahs will than living one second outside His Divine sphere of influence.

Going my way leads to disaster, going Jehovahs way leads to life eternal. Joseph- Anthony: Green

Spread out your petition before God, and then say, “Thy will, not mine, be done.” The sweetest lesson I have learned in God’s school is to let the Lord choose for me. –Dwight L. Moody

Prayer: Please Jehovah KalEl (voice of God) bless me to always be attentive and obedient to Your wise guidance in every aspect of my life. I sincerely request this in the name of he who was obedient unto You even unto death Jesus Christ. Amen.

May the sunshine of Jesus’ sweet love bless you today and every day.

Here Are the Keys.

 

I prayed to Jehovah that I would need strength to endure the tribulation and was very afraid of it.

He inspired me to open my Bible.

In it He showed me Noah was brought out of the flood, Lot was brought out of Sodom, The people who listened to the prophets came out of Jerusalem and did not suffer any harm when the Babylonians came and finally destroyed it. The Christians came out of Jerusalem and they did not suffer the tribulation of those who stayed inside and what happened to them when the Romans destroyed Jerusalem.

To me, this confirms the rapture will occur BEFORE the tribulation.

“These are they who have come out of the great tribulation Revelation 7:14 New

The tribulation is Gods final warning and punishment to the people.

Why do we need the warning if we already know it?

Why should we be punished because of the guilty?

If there are two children and one of them steals moms fresh baked cookies when told to leave them alone, should the child who obeyed be punished because of the one who stole?

Where is the God of Justice there?

Now some people ask: What about the harvest mentioned in Revelation 14:14 where there will be the harvest? If the Christians have already been taken in the rapture then how is there Christians afterwards?

Before reading that why not read: Then I saw another angel flying in midair, and he had the eternal gospel to proclaim to those who live on the earth to every nation, tribe, language and people. Revelation 14:6 New International Version

So you see, those people will become Christians by hearing and accepting the angels Gospel.

Prayer: Thank you Jehovah Sabaoth (The God of the heavens) for the magnificent blessing of an eternal home with You and Your divine providence in delivering us from the great tribulation. I humbly give the greatest gratitude in the name of our rescuing kings name Jesus Christ. Amen.

May the sunshine of Jesus’ sweet love bless you today and every day.

Impossible; Difficult; Done.

 “There are three stages in the work of God: Impossible; Difficult; Done.” — Hudson Taylor

Boy do I know this statement to be true.

In my thirty odd years of service unto my Beloved every time He called me into a service for Him it seemed impossible. I would argue for months all the numerous reasons the task was not only impossible but down right insane. Finally in exhaustion I submitted unto His will. Each time it was one of the most difficult endeavors ever under taken. Then it seemed out of nowhere the assignment was successfully completed.

Here was my personal blessings from them.

God gave me tasks that I was completely unprepared for and qualified for and would be impossible to complete on my own. This was a blessing because it taught me that when I depend upon Jehovah His will will be done.

Each task was extremely difficult. Without His help it would have crashed and burned. He taught me that in order to succeed in our Christian walk we need to walk with Jehovah and work as a team with Him. He will supply the material needed, we need to supply the faith and put forward the sincere effort.

Then when the task is completed it will happen suddenly. When we reflect back on the whole event we will be amazed at what we have accomplished together. This process will draw us closer to Him, increase our faith, love, respect and admiration for him.

For with God nothing [is or ever] shall be impossible.” Luke 1:37 Amplified Bible

Prayer: Thank you Jehovah-Rohi – Shepherd for blessing this precious little sheep of Yours with the opportunity to hear and obey Your commands. In this act of love You have blessed me with revealing Yourself to me that You will always supply my needs to fulfill Your desires in my life so that it will bring glory unto You and the little lost sheep unto You. I thank you in the name of my King whom I love so dearly Jesus Christ. Amen.

May the sunshine of Jesus’ sweet love bless you today and every day.

The Waterfall or the Desert.

 

 God meets daily needs daily. Not weekly or annually. He will give you what you need when it is needed. –Max Lucado

The pure water of a waterfall quenches the thirst in our bodies.

The desert sucks life giving moisture from our bodies until we die.

Which do you choose: The Waterfall or the Desert?

The pure waterfall tastes sweet to a thirsty soul while the heat of the desert of dries out the body.

Which do you choose: The Waterfall or the Desert?

The waterfall regenerates the body while the desert sucks the lifeblood from you.

Which do you choose:The Waterfall or the Desert?

The waterfall is cool and refreshing while the desert is unbearable hot.

Which do you choose: The Waterfall or the Desert?

Jehovah is the waterfall. He will always supply all your needs like a waterfall refreshes a dry and thirsty soul.

Serving satan by willingly living in sin is the desert. He will suck all the life, joy and peace from you like the desert heat does the moisture of your body.

Which do you choose to dedicate your life to?

Prayer: Thank you Jehovah Mechayeh (“Life giver to All”) for abundantly blessing me with Your sweet refreshing water of life that You so generously give to me every day. I exalt You in the name of He who is the waterfall of life Jesus Christ. Amen.

May the sunshine of Jesus’ sweet love bless you today and every day.

Cleavet After a year and a half mom has now settled down and our relationship has improved tremendously. She has even begun to go to church again for the first time in about forty years. The lord has taught me how to deal with stress. Mom has not smoked in about a year and I rarely smoke now (I am confident one day my Lord will permanently smash this chain of addiction)

There is No Other

“Turn to me and be saved, all you ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is no other.” Isaiah 45:22 Holy Bible, New International Version

I can understand the muslims, buddhists and other cults believing they can obtain entrance to Heaven following their doctrines but what saddens me is the misguided Christians that teach that as long as you are a good man or woman you will be granted entrance into Heaven. Joseph- Anthony: Green

It is really disheartening when I hear so called Christians saying we all follow one God and there is no difference between their cult and Christianity. Nothing could be further from the truth.

It is really disheartening when I hear so called Christians saying if we are good we will be granted citizenship in Heaven. Nothing could be further from the truth.

It is really disheartening when I hear so called Christians saying I am arrogant and not a true Christian and teach intolerance when I speak the truth and inform others that the only way into Heaven is through the sacrifice and resurrection of Christ. I am glad that Jesus is there to comfort and strengthen me when there is so much hatred towards the truth and those who live by it.

It is very encouraging when I hear the Holy Spirit say: “Well done child of Jehovah, keep it up.”

Prayer: Thank you Jesus Christ Go’el (The Lord is my Redeemer) for the ultimate gift of love to all by shedding Your holy precious blood so thast we may obtain adoption into Your Heavenly home by Your death and resurrection. Please open the eyes of the blind to this truth before they discover on their way to Hell You are the only way to Heaven. In Your kingship saving name I pray. Amen.

May the sunshine of Jesus’ sweet love bless you today and every day.
