And don’t let us yield to temptation, but rescue us from the evil one. Matthew 6:13 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation
My Beloved Father,this world is changing ever faster every day. It seems as if everywhere I turn whether it is on the computer, TV or radio all’s that is on is evil and filth. Many times it raises anger in my heart at seeing society going down the road to Hell and determined to take as many as they can with them. However, I know You are in control and have complete trust in You. Please protect my loved ones and myself from the devils evil schemes with these tools of destruction he uses so craftily. Please send angles to protect my loved ones and myself from satans minions. Please send the Holy Spirit to guide me them and myself away from the devils temptation and towards Your loving, safe protective arms. Thank you that in our weak moments when we turn to You, You rescue us from temptation . I humbly request this in Jesus Christs mighty name. Amen
May the light of Christs love shine brightly in your heart today and every dayJoseph a son of Jehovah
For You are not a God who takes pleasure in wickedness; No evil [person] dwells with You.
When you dwell with in Jehovahs presence he blesses you with guidance and protection.
If you are evil He will leave you to the demons for their pleasure. And then look out.
The boastful and the arrogant will not stand in Your sight; You hate all who do evil.
When we walk with Christ our lives are built upon the solid ground. We withstand life’ s storms even though sometimes we are battered and bruised by them.
When you are arrogant and proud oh how terrible your destruction shall be when the storms come pounding in. The shame shalt encover you like a heavy blanket of dung. And then look out.
You who laugh when you cultivate evil shall have it come pounding down upon your heads like fire from the sky. There shall be no remedy nor pity for you. And then look out.
You destroy those who tell lies; The Lord detests and rejects the bloodthirsty and deceitful man.
When we tell the truth, even though it may cause temporary discomfort, we enjoy peace of mind and a close loving relationship with Jehovah.
Those who tell lies to advance themselves or to wickedly gossip about others shall be like dung on a table presented to a king in Jehovahs eyes and your wickedness shall come upon you seven times worse than those you lied to. Your offerings and prayers shall be rejected by Jehovah. The same fate awaits those who delight in participating in deceit and those who enjoy shedding innocent blood. And then look out.
My words have been added to each verse.
Psalms 5: 4-6 Holy Bible Amplified Version
Prayer: Please Holy Spirit guide my every thought, word and deed so as to avoid suffering the terrible fate awaiting the wicked ones when they face Jehovah- Hashopet ( The Lord is the supreme Judge ). I so anxiously pray this inn the name of the Supreme Judge Jesus Christ. Amen.
May the sunshine of Jesus’ sweet love bless you today and every day.
God is just:He will pay back trouble to those who trouble you.2 Thessalonians 1:6 New International Version Holy Bible
Is there any trouble makers in your life right now?
You know they type, they are their happiest when they are causing trouble for everyone. When confronted about their despicable behavior they feign innocence, all the while laughing their wicked heads off on the inside. Many times it is a family member that is guilty of this which makes it all the worse.
Do not seek revenge nor feel anger towards them.
I know I feel anger towards them at first but then take it to Jehovah in prayer. He blesses me with peace and confidence that he is a just God and will repay seven time back to the perpetrator.
Then a deep feeling of pity for them envelopes me and I pray that the Holy Spirit convicts them unto repentance for their wicked behaviour before it is too late.
Sometimes they do repent sincerely and it is accepted graciously by me.
Sometimes they must still receive the punishment due to them ( for example if they ran a red light and hit my bicycle while drunk they must still face the consequences of their actions under the law).
Sometimes they just laugh at the “invisible boogy man God in the sky”.
As time slowly goes by I see the hand of Jehovah strike them with vengeance. Each time He inflicts His justice upon them it is worse than the previous one. Each time there is deep sorrow in my heart towards them for their arrogant foolishness as they needlessly suffer but I know there is nothing I can do about it.
Has someone intentionally done you wrong?
Yes you are to forgive them but you have every right to call down upon their head Jehovahs justice in the hopes that it will bring them unto repentance unto you, unto society and unto Jehovah.
Prayer: thank you Jehovah-Hashopet (The Lord is the supreme Judge) for the reassurance that there is no plea bargaining nor early parole for the wicked ones who delight in perpetrating evil wickedness upon innocent victims which many time the innocent suffer greatly because of. Please send the Holy Spirit unto them and convict them of their evilness to bring them to repentance before it is too late. I thank you and ask this in the name of the Supreme Judge of them all Jesus Christ. Amen.
May the sunshine of Jesus’ sweet love bless you today and every day.
Don’t you know that you yourselves are God’s templeand that God’s Spirit dwells in your midst? If anyone destroys God’s temple, God will destroy that person; for God’s temple is sacred, and you together are that temple. 1 Corinthians 3:16-17 New King James Version
Do you see the important part of these verses?
Anyone who destroys Jehovahs temple, He will destroy you.
As we Christians are the temple then it stands to reason that the offense is anyone that does anything to destroy another’s Christian walk. That includes false teachers and the wolves.
Some examples of false teachers are those who teach that we do not need to accept the fact that Christ died and slow agonizing death while shedding His Divine love for us.
Another example of anti-Christ teaching is that because Jesus loves us we can do what ever we desire with no consequences. Because He loves us we are all going to Heaven, hold hands in a circle and sing come by ya my Lord in Heavenly bliss. This satanic teaching is very popular in todays culture.
An additional satanic teaching is that there is no difference between Christ and the satanic cults of the world like islam There is a false teaching going around that there is no difference between Christianity and muslims. Christians believe Jesus is the son of God, muslims do not. Christians believe Jesus has been with Jehovah for all eternity, muslims do not. Christians believe that it is only through Christs sacrifice on the cross and our acceptance of Him as our Savior that gains us entry into Heaven, muslims do not.
Therefore let us not judge one another anymore, but rather resolve this, not to put a stumbling block or a cause to fall inourbrother’s way.Romans 14:13 New King James Version
The most wicked ones in any church are the wolves. They worship their god satan by driving more people from the church and Christ than anything or anyone else. These filth are the ones that are so high and mighty. They are quick to pounce upon others weaknesses in a superior judgmental way. I have seen too much of these wicked cursed ones in church and been the recipient of too many of their attacks. The perverse thing is that these are the ones that are the biggest sinners.
There are three types of folks that attend church. The biggest should be the smallest and the smallest should be the biggest.
The biggest group is the wolves, those seeking to attack others in a judgmental attitude and behavior. They drive more people from Christ and His church than any other contributing factor.
The next group is the groupies. They are not in church to worship or serve Christ, they are there to socialize in their little groups. If you are a new comer they will seldom welcome you to their group.
The last and smallest group are those who congregate to worship the Holy Trinity and to serve them.
When you attack a Christian, you attack Christ. Joseph- Anthony: Green
Prayer:Thank you Jehovah-Ganan (The Lord is Our Defense) for protecting and defending me against attacks by the wicked ones who knowingly or unknowingly attack Your precious child. Even though it was hard You taught me to depend upon You to defend me instead of foolishly being a hot head and attempting this feat with my own limited power and knowledge. Please bless them my love with seeing how wicked their behavior and attitude is and repenting of it. I praise You in the name of He who will be the ultimate victor in this battle Jesus Christ. Amen.
May Jehovah bless you today and every day with His precious love, joy and peace.
No temptationhas overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful;he will not let you be temptedbeyond what you can bear.But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.1 Corinthians 10:13 Holy Bible, New King James Version
We all have addictions, that is why we need the power of Christ within us to be victorious over them. Joseph- Anthony: Green
We are all addicted to something and many have more that one so please do not behave as if you are the only one suffering from yours. The Bible confirms it with- No temptationhas overtaken you except what is common to mankind. Those of us who are Christians have the greatest power to conquer them in the power of the Holy Spirit. Now He may heal you instantly like He did my alcoholism or He may guide you to resources to help you conquer it like He did my smoking addiction but He will always be faithful to guide you to the road to recovery.
Do you believe that God is near? He wants you to. He wants you to know that He is in the midst of your world. Wherever you are as you read these words, He is present.–Max Lucado
The temptation will never leave you for good. Sometimes it will be subtle and sometimes it will be strong to return to your addiction but the Holy Spirit will always bless you with knowledge and strength to defeat the devils snare.
“My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.”2 Corinthians 12:9 Holy Bible, New King James Version
Prayer: For the addicted:Oh please merciful Father in Heaven bless me with the Holy Spirits presence in my life to conquer this addiction. I know that it is too strong for me but that nothing is too strong for you. Please guide me to the resources needed to help me with this problem and the strength to be obedient unto your leading.
For the recovered addict: Thank you oh my amazing Father for smashing the chains of my addiction. Please help me to continue to walk in this freedom and bless me with Your powerful strength and wisdom to defeat the wicked one when he comes a knocking. I humbly request this and thank you in the name of He who has forever conquered all demons of addiction Jesus Christ. Amen.
May the sunshine of Jesus’ sweet love bless you today and every day.
He made a pit and dug it out, And has fallen into the ditch which he made. His trouble shall return upon his own head, And his violent dealing shall come down on his own crown. Psalm 7:15-16 New King James Version
We have all met, I am sure, those who delight in causing trouble. They love to cause fights between families, they love to cause fights between friends, they love to cause fights at work or school and they love to cause fights at public events (just look at soccer matches in Europe). They get their perverted pleasure from watching others fight and the grief it causes.
Give it time. It always comes back on them. And when it happens it always happens when they least expect it and at a very inopportune time (like say door crashers at a wedding reception or at a social event where it will cause them a lot of embarrassment.
The other thing I have noticed about them is that when they are young they believe they are getting away with it but as they age (it usually begins in their forties) they find themselves friendless. When they need companionship or help there is no one there for them.
Another thing I find happens is that they end up with tormentors (say a neighbour that is constantly playing loud music and doing things to anger them and laughing in their faces. Their lives are one of constant torment.
I have seen it too many times to count (that is one advantage of being older; we get to see them receive them fruits of their labours as it were). When confronted with these wicked creatures do not take things into your own hands but leave them in the hands of Jehovah. It may seem as if they are getting away with it and you may not see Jehovahs justice but be sure they will get what they have coming to them.
The seeds you plant today you will harvest in abundance tomorrow. Be careful the type of seeds you are planting. Joseph- Anthony: Green
When justice is done, it brings joy to the righteous but terror to evildoers. Proverbs 21:15 New International Version
And will not God bring about justice for his chosen ones, who cry out to him day and night? Will he keep putting them off? I tell you, he will see that they get justice, and quickly. Luke 18:7-8 New International Version
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah-Hashopet (The Lord is the Supreme Judge) for promising and delivering on Your Divine word that You will ensure true justice is done to the wicked who persecute, harm and cheat Your beloved children. I thank You in the name of the King who will deliver eternal justice on the Day of Judgment Jesus Christ. Amen.
May the sweet sunshine of Jesus’ beautiful love bless you today and every day.
To him who is able to keep you from stumbling. Jude 24 New King James Version
We all have them.
We have inherited them from our parents.
Sinful disposition traits are handed down from one generation to the next. This is why it is important to trace your ancestors. Doing so helps you understand why you are the way you are.
So if say you have relatives in your family tree that were alcoholics you would know it to be very wise to abstain from drinking.
As well it is also of extreme importance to pass this knowledge onto your children to help them avoid much grief and destruction in their lives.
Now there are some bad traits that try as we may we can never conquer them.
So say you are short tempered it does not matter how hard you try to control your temper you will always be short tempered.
All is not lost however.
We are blessed with the gift of the power of the Holy Spirit when we accept Christ as our savior and surrender these weaknesses to Him in complete faith that He shall conquer them.
As well He will bless you with knowledge of what triggers your temper to go off and the necessary steps to avoid these ruinous situations. There will come occasions when you cannot escape them. Then it is time to run to the safety of the Holy Spirit. Call upon Him quickly with complete faith He shall deliver you and He will.
I speak from personal experience on both of these weaknesses.
There were inherited weaknesses that were destroying my life that I had no power over. It was only when I completely surrendered them to Christ that I was saved.
There are ruinous dispositions that require daily prayer to prevent me from disastrous situation that the Holy Spirit either prevent from occurring or guided me through them when they do occur.
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah-Chatsahi (The Lord is my Strength) for blessing me with Your Devine strength to eternally conquer the fleshly weaknesses in my life that was spiritually destroying me and making my life a living Hell. Thank you for blessing me with wisdom and strength on how to keep them at bay. I exalt You in the name of Your strong Son my Beloved Savior Jesus Christ. Amen.
May the sweet sunshine of Jesus’ beautiful love bless you today and every day.
Jacob conned his brother out of his birthright and his father our of the blessings. When he fled from his brothers anger he settled with his uncle and fell in love with his cousin.
The uncle conned Jacob into serving him for over fourteen years.
Let this be a lesson to you.
If you are a conner, deceiver, manipulator and liar it does come back to bite you. I have seen many who in their early years were the worst I have ever met. Now they are old and are constantly getting conned and manipulated. Their lives are one of constant grief and loneliness.
Is that where you are heading?
Prayer: Please Jehovah KalEl (voice of God) speak to me and convict me when I am beginning to become a Conniving Kevin so that I do not violate Your holy command of do not do unto others as you would not want them to do unto you. I humbly beseech You in the name of He who was honest everything He did Jesus Christ. Amen.
May the sunshine of Jesus’ sweet love bless you today and every day.
In Joshua 6 Jehovah strictly forbid the people from keeping anything after to conquest of Jericho.
In Joshua seven Achan did not obey and the command and took some and tried to hide it from everybody. When the Israelites went to battle against a smaller tribe they were trounced because of Achans disobedience.
How about you?
Are others suffering because you are disobeying Gods commands?
Is your family or marriage suffering because you are flagrantly having an affair? Could it be that your company loses a contract and people lose their jobs because you cheat a company you do business with?
Could a sports team you play on be disqualified because you are using illegal drugs?
When I was a tree planter one jerk buried all his trees instead of planting them. When the company we were contracted out to found out what he did, we were all fired and lost and entire seasons wages. Considering tree planting is one of the hardest jobs in Canada and the season is only so long and we worked and suffered so much for those wages we were less than happy with him and he had to have the police escort him out of town for his own safety.
Prayer: Please Jehovah Yeshua (God our deliverer) rescue me from the temptation in any way to be dishonest. The consequences although unforeseen now will have dire results for myself and many innocent victims because of my greed. I sincerely request this in the name of He who resisted the evil ones sly ploys to prevent Him from His faithful calling Jesus Christ. Amen
May the sunshine of Jesus’ sweet love bless you today and every day.
You know what; you might be surprised who will stand up with you.
One time in a tree panting camp a foreman was treating rookies very bad.
I stood up to him.
This angered the camp supervisor and he arranged a little show down between his goons and me.
I told them “You may beat me, but I will get back up, spit my blood in your face and kick your buts. When I am right I WILL FIGHT even unto my last breath.”
I was prepared to receive a butt kicking.
I heard a small voice saying: Don’t worry. I am sending you help.” I was expecting a legion of angels to come thundering out of the clouds.
What I didn’t know was that when hearing this many of the other planters quietly moved behind me, a road crew repairing a damaged section of the Alaska Highway joined in.
What started out as fifteen of them against me were now forty of them with me against fifteen of the camp supervisors goons. Now believe these boys were no angels. Ha ha but I believe God moved their hearts to step forward and risk an all out war. We would have all gotten fired as well.
Needless to say the goons quickly backed down. I then TOLD the foreman and camp supervisor to get over here and apologize to these boys or I am coming over there and kick your butt. They had to humble themselves in front of the whole camp.
Later many people came over and mentioned how they admired that I stood up. My reply was that it is the duty of every Christian to stand up and fight for what is right.
“A man dies once, a coward dies many times.” Mexican proverb
And it is so true. Remember: it is our Christian duty to stand up and fight when we see an injustice.
“And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell” (Matt. 10:28New International Version)
“For the word of God is living and active and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing as far as the division of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart”Hebrews 4:12(New American Standard Bible).
Prayer: Oh Jehovah Nissi( the Lord is our banner, that means He goes out in front of us when we fight the right fight) I admit sometimes when I see an injustice I tremble in fear. Please give me a strong and courageous heart that has faith You will be right there with me, like David. A faith and ambition like Paul’s . In the name of the mighty warrior king Jesus Christ I pray. Amen.
May the sunshine of Jesus’ sweet love bless you today and every day.
