                      Computer Wiz Psalm

   The Lord is my programmer. I shall not crash. 
His software is on the hard disk of my heart.
   His commandments are user friendly.

He directs me to make right choices for His name's sake.
   Even though I shall scroll through the problems of life,
I'll fear no bugs, for He is my backup.
   
   His passwords protect me.
He prepares a menu before me in the presence of my enemies.
   His help is only a keystroke away.

   Surely goodness and mercy will follow me
all the days of my life.
   For He has caused my file to merge with His
and be saved forever.
   


          

Going Through Trials?

   "There has no temptation (Trial) that has come upon you but that which is common to man; (because of Adam's sin, bringing in corruption) but God wills, that in spite of the trial (from satan, which tests your faith) to make a way of escape (Hope) that you may be able to bear it."

   The Lord's prayer reads, "Lead me not into temptation.." It is easy to think God CAN lead us into temptation because here we're asking Him not to. 
   However God is Love and He CANNOT sin. His Word declares "God cannot be tempted of evil, neither does He tempt any man to commit evil."

   It isn't easy standing up to attacks against your character, your integrity, your heath and your peace of mind just to name a few.
Yet God's Word is true. "He is Faithful Who called you Who will also keep His Word to you." Why? Because He watches over His Word to perform (keep) it.
   What Word? Oh my, His 3000 plus promises He makes to all believers in Christ. Such as Psalms 34:4 "I sought the Lord and He heard me and delivered me from ALL my fears." 

   Staying in His Word and meditating on it produces 2 Timothy 1:7 "For God has not given us a spirit of fear; but of  power, and of love, and of a sound mind."
   
   Need comfort in your troubles?  This will surely help if you'll take God at His Word and believe it. Psalms 34:6 "This poor man cried and the Lord heard him, and delivered him out of ALL his troubles,"
Psalms 34:19 "Many are the afflictions of the Righteous but the Lord delivers him out of them ALL." 

   Trust God Who Loves you, Who not only will comfort you in your trial but Who will deliver you from "The hand of your enemies and all them that hate you (demonic forces)."

Don't Miss Your Mark.

   If a person shoots an arrow at a target and misses it by one inch, they may as well turn around and shoot it in the opposite direction.

  To miss it by one inch is the same as missing it by a mile. However this is exactly what the devil wants people to do. 

   Let's set the record straight. Do you want to go to Heaven and enjoy life forever or would you want to burn in Hades forever?        Place your hand on a red hot burner and if you like that, then you would love your whole body burning in fervent heat and torture forever.

   Any sane person would not choose hell over Heaven. So wouldn't the logical sane thing be to, "Seek the Lord while He may be found?" 
   Any one who asks God to save them will be shown "The Door To Himself (Jesus)"  There is only ONE door to God, there is no other. 

   JESUS CHRIST IS "THE DOOR" TO GOD. There is no other way, path or medium  that can be taken that will reach God. 
Jesus is not only "The Door" but He is also "The Way" the Only Way to God. 

   God not only began all creation BY Jesus (John 1:1-3)  but also FOR Him. God gave Jesus the honor of being Creator and Savior but also being 'Everything in between.' He is "Our All in ALL, filling all things (He desires) with Himself."
   
     

   Jesus and God are ONE. Isaiah 45:6 "That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the West, there is none besides Me. I AM the Lord and there is no one else (Who is God)."

   Jesus is "The Way and The Door" to God. God has made Jesus to be man's ONLY "Go Between" for Him. Isaiah 12:24 says "To Jesus the (ONLY) Mediator (Intercessor) of the New Covenant.."
   Jesus was made not only our Savior but also our "Advocate" (Lawyer) for us. Jesus "Ever lives to intercede for His saints., being our Great High Priest."

   If you are going to pray to God make sure your prayers reach Him. Jesus said "Without Me you can do nothing." Be sure to pray to Jesus, not to His heart, His hands or feet, and certainly not to disciples, Mary or angels who were never given power to be intercessors for man. It's simply not in the Bible. Jesus was explicit when He said "You shall have NO other gods before me."

   God is jealous for His Son Jesus and for all who believe in Him. God means it when He says "No one comes to Me except through Jesus." "There in NO OTHER NAME under Heaven given among men whereby you must be saved."  

   This next scripture is awesome. Luke 10:21-22  Jesus said "I thank You Father (God) that You have concealed these things (relating to salvation) from those who think they know and have revealed it unto babes (People who are humble enough to realize they need salvation and don't know how to find it.) 
   
vs. 22 "ALL things (POWER, HONOR and GLORY) are given unto Me by My Father and no man knows who the Son is, except the Father; and who the Father is, except Me and he to whom the Son will reveal Him." 

   When asked how to pray, Jesus said pray to the Father "Our Father Who art in Heaven.." NOT to disciples, Mary, saints or angels. 

   God has exalted Jesus ABOVE EVERY NAME  BOTH IN HEAVEN AND IN EARTH.  Honor Jesus and no one else and God will bless you beyond all you can ask or think or even imagine.
Praise the Lord God Almighty.

From Ashes to Glory

                   God made man from the dust of the earth. 

   Job 8:19 (Paraphrased) "The ungodly will have no joy because they lose everything in life. But out of the earth others will be created (who WILL seek God)."
   
   What's ironic is the devil does his best to crush Christians' faith in Jesus (Who IS God). And many of them feel their hopes and dreams have been destroyed and become ashes. 
   The beauty of God is He WILL NEVER LEAVE NOR FORSAKE US. So even when it seems all is lost, God keeps our dreams 'Alive in His care.' 
   Psalm 113:7 "He raises the poor (crushed and discouraged) out of the dust and lifts the needy from the ash heap."
   
   Isaiah 53:5 says Jesus was "Bruised for our iniquities.." The word bruised here means CRUSHED. Jesus was raised from death and the grave for us, so He knows how to revive the down trodden,  the hurting, the Believers who become miserable in their efforts to follow Jesus.

   Isaiah 61:3 "To ALL who mourn in Zion (Believers in Jesus Christ), He will give a crown of beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, and the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness (the dirt(y) lies of satan) (so) that they may be called trees of Righteousness, the planting of the Lord that He may be glorified."

   Jesus is "The Light that came INTO the world, into the our darkness; 
He was the SEED of Light sown in darkness (in earth, in us). 
   All life comes from God. It has been seen and documented that every time a sperm cell penetrates an egg in a mother's womb, A TINY FLASH OF LIGHT OCCURS. 
   
   When a Christian 'sins' they feel 'Soiled' and dirty. However the Truth is, Jesus IS OUR LIGHT AND OUR SALVATION. We no longer walk in darkness, God sees us as "The Righteousness of God in Him (Jesus). God has forgiven ALL our sins and heals ALL our diseases. (Psalms 103:3)

   Take heart, Jesus is NOW lifting you up from your low places and strengthening your heart. "He gives strength to the weak." He loves you and cares for you, more than you can imagine.
   Put on your "Crown of Beauty", apply your "Oil of Joy" and put on the "Garment of Praise."
   He's lifting you out of your despair, out of the dirt the enemy has thrown on you. Take your rightful place beside Jesus. You are "Above and not beneath." You are "The Head and not the Tail."
You are "Blessed and highly favored of God." Give Him praise.!  
   
    
   

The Commandments of Love

   When God said, "I COMMAND that you Love one another AND that you Love the Lord, your God with all your heart, all your mind and all your strength," 
               Understand this - His command was not for you to do it. It was and is for Him to do it, by faith, THROUGH YOU.
Remember Jesus said "Without Me, you can do NOTHING (SPIRITUAL, RIGHT OR HOLY)."

   The Bible says "I CAN DO all things (Spiritual) through (by) Christ, which (encourages and) strengthens me."

   Ephesians 2:8-10 says "For we are His workmanship, created IN Christ Jesus unto (to do) His good works, which God has before ordained that we should walk in (do) them (Supernatural works by the faith of God, not by effort."  
   "Not of (human) works lest any man should boast (I helped God save me. NO you didn't. Salvation is all of and the finished work of God through the sacrifice of His Son Jesus on the cross to pay for ALL our sins and heal us from ALL our diseases.

   When we "Bring every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ" we submit ALL our thoughts, hopes and dreams to Him and BELIEVE we are trusting IN HIS OBEDIENCE, not our efforts.

   For the Word says that "ALL our righteousness is as filthy rags to God."  Trying to be good is the enemy of being holy. Jesus was the perfect sacrifice and He said, "It is finished." All who believe in Him stand forgiven of all their sins, and righteous before God. 

   All who believe in Jesus have received Eternal Life-You can never die (Spiritually), You can never lose your salvation. He promised He will never leave you nor forsake you.  
   

The Light will make you free.

   Jesus is the Light of the world. The devil is the 'dark'. 
God's Word says 'Jesus is "The Light" that lights EVERY man that comes into the world. 
   How can He be if everyone is born a "Sinner?" This is how!

ALL life comes from God. It has been discovered that EVERY TIME a sperm cell impregnates a woman's egg, a visible burst of light can be photographed in the womb. 

   The devil actively 'Throws dirt' (Accusations) on every Christian to discourage them and get them to believe they are 'Not Worthy,'
'Powerless,' etc., to not believe what God has said about them.

 It's time to BELIEVE WHAT GOD SAYS  ABOUT YOU, all who Believe the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

  God says, "You are  A NEW CREATION. I give you power over ALL the power of the enemy. You shall tread upon serpents and scorpions. Not a hair of your head will perish. NO weapon that is formed against you shall prosper. Fear not, for I am with you. And since I am for you, who can defeat you? NO ONE.

  I make your enemies your footstool. I deliver you from ALL your afflictions, from ALL your fears, from ALL your worries, from ALL your diseases. I bring you prosperity. I'm able to do exceeding abundantly above all you can ask or think.

   Trust Me, says the Lord, I complete that which I began in you. I'm able to subdue all flesh to Myself. 
   He says "All who believe in Christ Jesus ARE NEW CREATIONS (IN TRUE HOLINESS), the old things of your sinful past have passed away, BEHOLD, ALL things in you are now brand new."

   "And ALL these things are of God (His will and His doing)."

Behold, the Light of God

   Glory to God. Halleluiah. Oh Dear God, people of earth, get ready. You are  about to see things you've never seen before. 

   For God has begun to INVADE EARTH with His Power, His Presence, His Justice, and His Miracles He will do it with revelation of His reality to all people on the planet. 

   You see, the Bible, God's Word, declares "To God be the Glory" and "God will be glorified in all the earth."

   The "Turn Around" has begun. You are about to see God's Justice against the devil's nefarious works come into fruition.

The devil will come against the Righteous one way and will then flee seven ways (torn apart).
If God be for true Believers in Christ, who can stand against them?

"No weapon formed against them shall prosper but EVERY (lying) tongue that rise against them in judgement, they shall condemn. This is the inheritance of the servants of the Lord and their Righteousness is of Me saith the Lord."

   "For your weapons are not human but instead are (supernatural) mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds."
All true Believers in Christ possess the "Sword of the Spirit" which no foe can withstand. They also have the very Name of Christ to speak and use. Not to mention the "Blood of the Lamb" which defeated the devil on his own hellish turf.
   Their armory of spiritual weapons doesn't end there, it only begins there because with God (and His Holy Spirit), there are no limits.
God is now saying again, "LET THERE BE LIGHT."

    "To God be the glory both NOW and forever more."

Lightning Fell

   The devil is real. Witches are real. And demons are real. They are invisible but exist for the purposes of STEALING, KILLING AND DESTROYING anything and anyone they possibly can. 

   Why? Because satan was thrown out of heaven for corrupting himself with riches, position and violence. Evil was found in him and Jesus said, "I beheld satan as (like?) lightning fall from heaven."
Luke 10:18.

   Halloween originally meant Hallow e'en (evening), or holy evening. It was meant to honor the dead who died for their country.
But the devil quickly turned it into worshiping death.
    
   It is dangerous to join all the evil forces at work on Halloween because satan looses his demonic forces in great numbers to do his works that night. 
   Halloween is death dressed up with frivolity through pagan practices, i.e. apple bobbing, trick or treating, etc. 
   Some demons masquerade as 'familiar spirits.' King Saul sought to hear from the dead through a "Seer" (witch). And he became mad for it. 

   The chief weapon satan has to use against people is F.E.A.R.
False Evidence Appearing Real.  The devil uses fear in all its ugly forms, such as, worry, doubt, anxiety, confusion, depression, etc.
   Halloween is FEAR based, i.e. fear of death, curses, demonic oppression dressed up as "Fun".

   However, good news. Jesus defeated the devil on the cross of Calvary. He went to hell for our sins and diseases, taking away the devil's weapons "All his armor in which he trusted." 

   Jesus doesn't want any person, Christian or not, involved with Halloween. In fact He said, "Though you walk through the valley of the shadow of death, you don't have to fear ANY evil. My rod and My staff (power and authority) will protect you." 

   I could offer MANY spiritual reasons to forsake Halloween and have nothing to do with it if time permitted.

   As for children, create a "Fall festival" and make costumes of farmers or famous people, but never demons, devils, witches, goblins, ogres, skeletons, etc. Trick or treat is actually teaching our children extortion tactics. The Druids who began it would seriously 
bring destruction on people who would not "Pay up."

   We were created to love God and love people, not to glorify the arch enemy of man, and participate in his evil rituals.

   Halloween is a dangerous, evil lie that ultimately could have deadly consequences. Beware of your adversary satan, who "..seeks whom he may devour" (with lies and deceit).


   

      



   

Divine Connection

   God commands us to "Love Him with ALL our heart, mind and strength AND our neighbor as ourselves."
   How can a finite perishable man love an infinite God who is Spirit and they are flesh, when God is Holy and man is born corrupt with the sin nature of Adam?
   No man can keep that divine command by his own choice or effort. "For we are saved BY GRACE, NOT (our) WORKS. For we (who become saved by faith in Jesus Christ) are His (Christ's) workmanship, lest any man should boast." Eph. 2:8-10.

   With man, obedience to God's command, is impossible, however WITH GOD, ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE. 
   But in order for man to be "With God" he must become "One with God"-United in Spirit with Him because God is a Spirit.

   His CONNECTION with man was and is Jesus Christ who was born of man's flesh but with and BY GOD'S DNA. God was the Father of Jesus, not Joseph. The blood of Jesus was HOLY BLOOD. Jesus became both "The Son of man and The Son of God." 

    Jesus Christ Who is "GOD come in the flesh," is The Savior of the world. There's NO other way to be saved. 
Jesus said, "I and the Father are ONE. He who has seen Me has seen the Father. He who has the Son has the Father."
   God gives us HIS OWN FAITH to believe in Jesus. Faith (to believe in The Way, The truth and The Life (Jesus) comes by hearing and hearing (receiving) by the Word of God. 

   You hear God's Word, "I love you, I died for you. And I arose from the grave for you." "It's the goodness of God that draws men to repentance."   So you take those words into your heart and instantly you are born again. And as a baby announces its' birth with crying, you announce to the world, "I'm saved, I'm saved, I'm saved." "With the heart man believes unto righteousness and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation."
   
   The Bible declares, "The Just shall live by faith." Meaning there comes a time in a Christian when they mature in God's faith within them where they begin to believe ALL the Gospel promises.
   They trust God to "Supply ALL their needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus." 
   They become totally dependent upon God for their continued health, for ALL their needs being met, living in God's economy, not the world as their source. "Lean not to your own understanding but in ALL your ways acknowledge Him and He shall direct your paths," and supply ALL your needs of life, health and daily provision.
"I shall not want.." "Fear not, for I Am with you to the ends of the world (and always)." 
   

    

I WILL Heal you, saith The Lord

                         I WILL Heal You, Saith the Lord   Part 1

   Psalm 103:3 says (It is God) Who forgives ALL my iniquities; Who heals ALL my diseases.." 
   
   When we see Christians who are sick and suffer, who don't get healed, some even die, we wonder why? 

   A reason can be because many believers in Christ have faith to BELIEVE HIM for salvation but have not received faith in God's ability to heal them.  When prayed for, they DOUBT God will heal them. The DON'T KNOW GOD WILL HEAL THEM BY FAITH.
               "Without faith it's impossible to please Him."

God ONLY honors faith. He does not regard or honor begging and pleading.  Asking in faith, yes; groveling, no.

   But praise God, He has provided a way for everyone who wants to be healed TO RECEIVE THEIR HEALING WITHOUT DOUBT.   

Faith TO BE HEALED comes by "HEARING and HEARING-(Understanding) comes by (Reading, and meditating ) in The Word."

   When we continue to read scriptures such as "Brethren, I pray that you BE in health and prosper even as your soul prospers," and "Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, AND PREACHING THE GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM, AND HEALING ALL  sickness and EVERY disease among the people," 
   then why does He not heal every one now?
The answer:
   Keep reading the Bible, remember healing scriptures and SAY them out loud. When you have pain, PROCLAIM God's Word over and over and over till what you're saying manifests in your body. You are not healed by repetition but by SAYING you are healed till you believe it in your heart, not just your head. 
   "As a man BELIEVES in his heart, so is he."

   God spoke everything into existence. Speak God's Word "I AM the HEALED of the Lord," "By His stripes I AM HEALED."
"God heals ALL my diseases." He delivers me from ALL my fears." He delivers me from ALL my afflictions." He delivers me from ALL my troubles."
   "Jesus  is MY JEHOVAH RAPHA-HEALER." 

 Too many Christians think Jesus died for their sins ONLY.
That is not true, so erroneous. On the cross Jesus became both SIN and SICK for us. He became so hideous with diseases that He looked like a worm and not a man. So much so that "No man would desire Him (Trust Him)." 
Jesus took 39 stripes on His back, one for every category of sickness known to man. 



                 I WILL Heal You, saith the Lord  Part 2

   The Word declares "By His stripes we ARE HEALED." His Word is with Power and it always works BY FAITH. Eat, drink, and consume His Word until His Word consumes you. 
   You will never be disappointed. God is faithful Who WILL NOT WITHHOLD ANY good thing from you. (Romans 8:32)

Healing is freely offered by God in faith. So it can only be received by faith. "From the days of John the Baptist until now, the Kingdom of Heaven allows violence-(The power of faith) and the violent-(people of faith) TAKE IT BY FORCE."
   Decree and declare "By His stripes I WAS HEALED and by His stripes I AM HEALED." And don't turn from it. Then in faith P.U.S.H., Pray Until Something Happens. 
   How shall He (God) Who spared not His only Begotten Son ALSO NOT with Him freely give you all things?


   I once had cancer symptoms big time in my body. It appeared in my prostate gland and rapidly grew worse.
   Until I was bleeding externally.
I knew I was in serious trouble. But I chose NOT to be treated or operated on by doctors because I believed Jesus WAS MY GREAT PHYSICIAN. Either He was going to heal me or I was going to go to heaven. 
   I prayed, sincerely, and continuously to no avail. I asked many to pray for me to no avail. I spoke God's Word over me to no avail.   
                  The pain became almost unbearable.
   One morning after having to sleep sitting up, on ice packs, I walked out to my living room saying to my wife, "I'm hurting, I'm in pain. I don't know what to do or how much more I can take."
   By the unction of the Holy Spirit, nose to nose, she said, "Speak the Truth only."

   I was shocked. I said, "I am speaking the Truth, I'm in pain. I'm hurting." 
   At that moment Holy Spirit revelation flowed into my mind and heart. I SAW that Jesus Christ IS and WAS THE TRUTH. I saw JESUS WAS HEALTHY AND I BELIEVED IN HIM. I did NOT believe in the devil who is a liar and the father of it. I saw that ALL symptoms of sickness or disease are LIES OF SATAN. They are not the Truth. 

    I saw I was going about TALKING  ABOUT  what the devil was doing, not what Jesus has done. I was exalting sickness, and pain. I was preaching the devil's works instead of the Lord's finished work for me on the cross.

   I SAW IN AN INSTANT THAT ALL SICKNESS IS A BALD FACED LIE. AND EVERY SYMPTOM OF DISEASE OR SICKNESS WAS A LIE THE DEVIL WAS TRYING TO GET ME TO ACCEPT. 
   So immediately, I quit talking about myself, how bad I felt and about my condition. I quit asking to be prayed for. I BELIEVED God had heard people's prayers and mine and His answer was "Yes and amen, I will heal you." 
   I rejected and rebuked all symptoms in my body in Jesus' name.
Jesus WAS my health. He wasn't trying to heal me. I ignored my pain and spoke no more about it. I gave the devil no more "Air Time." I declared the Gospel ONLY. I spoke healing scriptures  ONLY and in just a matter of days I was healed completely with no medicine and no doctor except doctor Jesus.

                    I WILL Heal You, saith The Lord   Part 3

   I once met an elderly man who gave me this testimony.
He was full of faith, so humble yet knowledgeable of God's Word.
He said he had suffered a hernia that became as big as a grapefruit. His daughter came with an ambulance to take him to the hospital. He said, "Do I have to go? His daughter said, "If you don't, you will die dad." 
   He said, "Then I won't go because the Lord is my healer. He will heal me." She left him in tears, thinking she may never see him alive again. 
   That night at 3 o'clock in the morning Jesus came and touched him and healed him instantly.

   I also saw a woman in her late fifties give this awesome testimony. Perry Stone had just started one of his programs when he said "I have a woman here that I want you to hear." 

   She came out and began to testify. She said, "A few days ago I was on my death bed in the hospital. My body's organs were all but shut down. I was paralyzed from the neck down. I was given less than three hours to live. The doctors had given up on me.
  As I laid there, I began to speak the Word of God over me. I said
"Jesus, You're the same healer today you were on the earth. You are Jehovah Rapha, my healer."  I began to speak to my body. 
"Body, by the stripes of Jesus, you are healed. I will live and not die for the glory of God. There's nothing impossible with God."
   As I kept talking to my body and praising God. my body's organs began to come to life. An attending nurse listened with a stethoscope and said, "Oh my God this can't be, her organs are coming alive again." She ran to get the doctors. 
   When she returned I lifted up an arm and the doctors said, "You're paralyzed, you can't do that." I replied, "What the nurse heard in my body was the power of the Word of God inside me. If you think my lifting up one arm is something, watch this." And I lifted both arms up and began praising God at the top of my lungs.
  The doctors were in total shock as I sat up on the bed speaking God's Word over me. Within minutes I was on my feet, walking and leaping and praising God with all my might.
   You can't tell me there's no God in heaven and you can't tell me He doesn't heal today. He's the same yesterday, today and forever.
Praise His Holy name."

     

Jesus Reigns

   
   In the 1980's I formed a 3 man parachute team called "White Doves Christian Parachute  Team".
   We all had white parachutes on which I sewed these messages, 
On one "Jesus Loves", the second one "Jesus Lives", and the third "Jesus saves."  The letters were 18" high in royal blue letters.
   We practiced doing aerial stunts "Canopy Relative Work" and using smoke flares and streamers. We performed in many World War 2 air shows, church events, Kennedy Space Center picnics,
etc. for four years. 
   It was estimated over 250,000 people read our parachute messages. We were asked to give our testimonies of Jesus Christ and speak in various churches and gatherings.

   Initially I had planned on a fourth team member which never manifested. So I cut out the letters for the fourth message which read "Jesus Reigns." 
   
   I thought of the three Hebrew men, Shadrach, Meshak and Abednego, who were thrown in the fiery furnace for worshiping God and not a man, only to find A FOURTH MAN  in the fire with them (namely Jesus).
   That's when I realized the fourth man on our team was Jesus Christ who reigns supreme.

   The Word says "And the government shall rest upon His shoulders."
He is seated at the right hand of the Father Who said "Sit here at My right hand till I make your enemies Your footstool."
   The Bible also says "The world is His and the fullness thereof."
He created the world and all in it. Without Him (Jesus) was not anything made that was made." 
   Jesus is Lord and God over all who believe in Him as their Savior. He is "The Head (Ruler) of His body (Believers in Him).
   He is not only the Head; He is the One Who perfects and equips His followers to "Walk in faith, strengthened with 'Might in the inner man' and to become Strong in the Lord in the power of His might." 
   Praise God that NOW (in these last days before His eminent return) (IN BELIEVERS) "JESUS REIGNS." 
    

God Now Fights For You

    God said, "The enemy you have fought against,you will see no more." 
   
   God told Jesus "Be seated at My right hand till I make your enemies your footstool."
   Jesus fought the Great fight of Faith on the cruel cross of Calvary.
He was beaten and afflicted by God, as punishment for our sins fell on Him. He suffered having His beard plucked off His face, spit upon, mocked publicly, then a piercing, sharp crown of thorns was jammed on His head. 
   He was beaten 39 times with a whip that ripped open furrows across His back so His rib bones were exposed.
   He became SIN for us and He became sick for us. 
All diseases known to man can be categorized under 39 classifications. Jesus' appearance began to be gross. The Word says,
He was so disfigured (by disease) that "No man should desire Him."

   Jesus fought the battle (and won) against sin and sickness, then he arose and took His seat as Lord of Lords and King of Kings.

   NOW God is fighting our battles for us. Jesus gave us His power over ALL the power of the enemy, using His name.
   NOW when God hears the name of Jesus, He honors it with action. 
   Jesus gave us power to "Tread on serpents and scorpions and nothing shall by any means hurt us."
   When we use the power of Faith, God stands up and decimates the enemy of our souls, the devil and all his followers.
   
   God says, "I birthed you into My Kingdom. I am in you and you are in me (in Jesus). I will save you, deliver you, heal you, keep you and protect you from all evil. I will deliver you from ALL fears, from ALL troubles, and from ALL afflictions."
   When trouble threatens, you run into Me and you are safe. No one can defeat you. As I was with Moses, so I will be with you."
"I am able to keep that which you have committed unto Me unto that day," (when I bring you home).
  
   

Who You Gonna Call?

   There was an old saying, "There are no atheists in fox holes."
Meaning when any soldier is dug into a hole in the ground to avoid enemy mortar shells, atheist espousing or not, he WILL CALL OUT, "GOD HAVE MERCY, SAVE ME."
   
You see, instinctively, man knows God exists. All cultures seek God but sadly, few know how to find Him. They make idols and worship them. Or they worship all forms of nature, such as Ra, the sun god or Osiris, the moon goddess, etc. 
  
 Kind of like shooting an arrow at a round target and missing the whole target by one inch. That archer may as well have shot in the other direction. Missing by an inch is missing by a mile.

   That's why it's super critical for every person to find the True and Living God, Yahweh, Jehovah, the great I AM.
He ALONE IS GOD. There is no other is like unto Him.
       Isaiah Chapter 43-45 declares who God really is. 
 Is. 43:1 "..thus saith the Lord THAT CREATED THEE..?
Is. 44:8 "..is there a god beside(s) Me? yes, THERE IS NO GOD; I KNOW NOT ANY."

Is. 45:5 "I AM the Lord, (Who is one with God and Who IS God),
and there is none else, there is no god beside(s) Me.." 

Any religion saying Jesus was just a prophet or a good man only
is totally in error. The Father of Jesus was God Himself. The blood of infants is determined by the father not the mother. The blood in Jesus' veins was HOLY BLOOD. That made Him both the Son of God and the son of man. He was God, come in human form. He was "God become human flesh and dwelt among us."

   To deny the blood of Christ is to reject God's Love for us. It didn't cost God anything to create the universe and all in it, but it cost Him the very life of His Only Begotten Son to save us. 
   The crucifixion of Jesus was greater than the act of all creation.

   Years ago, I heard Jesse Duplantis say he was on an airplane seated next to a man who said he was an atheist. When  the plane started experiencing mechanical problems and the atheist heard it,
he cried out "God save me." Jesse replied "Who you talking to? You said there's no God. He can't help you if you don't believe in Him. And by the way, HIS NAME IS JESUS. He IS God."

   Once saw a bumper sticker that read, "Jesus, don't leave earth without Him."
   The Word says, "There is NO OTHER NAME under heaven given among men, whereby you MUST BE SAVED."

   Jesus said, "I and the Father are One, He who has seen me has seen the Father. He who has the Son has the Father. He who does not have the Son does not have the Father."

   So my question to all who are seeking God but don't know Him, now that you know who God is, WHO YOU GONNA CALL?

   

   

A Million, Billion Fireworks

    Heavenly Father, I love Your Spirit. I bathe in Your Spirit. I drink in Your Spirit. I swim in and luxuriate in You Holy Spirit.
   Your Spirit is so comforting, so gentle, so kind, so dear, so sweet, so pure, so joyful, so wonderful to rejoice within.
   My soul knows so rightly. Thou art altogether lovely. Your beauty O Lord is to be sought and adored.

   The miracle of Your touch is unforgettable. Praise You O God my King, my Lord and my friend forever.
   Your touch, O dear God, how truly, truly awesome! How amazing and astounding that the God of the Universe would reach down and touch me in my body.

   When You did, a million, billion fireworks-explosions went off in every nerve ending in my body. Who could stand under the power of Your presence? I fell in a heap on the floor.
   That apex, acme, zenith and climax of supernatural pleasure, Father, who has ever known? Nor can it be forgotten!

   You have called us forth into Glory. Eph.1:20 "..You raised Christ from the dead and set Him at Your own right hand in the heavenly places."
Eph.2:6 "(God) has raised us up together (all believers in Christ) and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus."

   Jesus, You endured the cross FOR THE JOY that was set before You. Praise You that Your heart is to share Your joy of victory of salvation for the multitudes and the fellowship of eternity's rewards with Thee. "There are pleasures at Thy right hand forevermore."
   

The Door

   The Bible clearly states God is "Our Heavenly Father" to all who will believe He loves them by seeing how much He loved them.
How do you see His Love? By looking at the cross where "God SO LOVED the world that He gave His Only Begotten Son" as a pure, holy, sinless sacrifice to pay for our sins.
   The Bible says Jesus was "slain from the foundation of the world." He was ready to die for us BEFORE He even created us.
That is real love people. 

   Jesus is The Door to God. He said "I AM the Door. No one comes to the Father but by Me." He's The Way to God. And He's The Life OF God. 
   The Word says "He who has the Son has the Father. He who does not have the Son, does not have the Father."
   Until I met Jesus, I believed in God, in a heaven and a hell. I thought I was a good person and MIGHT go to heaven but I wasn't sure. 
   I found out that no one goes to heaven for being good, kind or loving. Because "ALL our righteousness is as filthy rags to God."
I found out I needed Jesus in my heart or I was not going go to Heaven, period. 

   I was a skydiver. Believe me if you parachute, you WILL PRAY. I prayed hard before every jump but it never gave me any peace.
One day it hit me as I looked down from 7200 feet, ready to jump, "Man, I could cream in (Die) on this jump. God if you'll get me through this jump, I'll find out if I'm saved or not."

   He got me through the jump. So I began to talk to God. In my search for Him I realized something; that my life of having a fast parachute, a fast motorcycle, a fast hot rod,  and living fast with women, did not satisfy me. The more I had, the less they satisfied.     There was an emptiness inside, all these could not fill. So I shook my fist at God and said, "God if all I have won't satisfy me, what will? Why was I created?
   I told Him, "I'm not letting go of You till I get  an answer."

   God answered by someone telling me, "There's a small prayer group that has more girls than guys, you might be able to get a date there."  
   So I went looking for a date and found out, I was not saved. They had God's Agape Love shining from them. I found out Jesus was the ONLY WAY to know God.
   So at my apartment, I knelt and said, "Jesus, I believe in Your blood that was shed for me on the cross. I ask You to come into my heart and save me and Your Word says You will come in and never leave me nor forsake me." 
   I didn't feel different but I went to sleep a "Born again" creation of God. The next morning as I woke up, I heard Jesus say in my heart, "I've taken your sins all away. You don't have to carry them any more." My shoulders were as light as feathers as though a great weight was just taken off them.

    I Found out we were created to Love God back, He wanted a great family to love on and be loved in return. 
   He wants us to learn to live by faith. God says "I know the plans I have for you. Plans for your good and not your harm."

    

Believe The Report Of The Lord

         God is faithful, Who called us Who WILL also do it.

This is God's will for you, that you give him thanks IN ALL things, (every circumstance) that is good or appears bad. 

2 Corinthians 2:14 "NOW (continually) thanks be (given) unto God which ALWAYS causes us to triumph IN Christ, and always makes manifest the fragrance of His knowledge by us in every place (we influence)."
   
   When sickness or disease symptoms come, realize they are not from God. Jesus never was sick in His ministry UNTIL he became sick and diseased for us on the cross. 
   He died for our sins AND for ALL the sickness and disease the devil would ever TRY to put on us as believers in Christ. 
  
   Psalm 34 tells us the Lord delivers from ALL AFFLICTIONS, TROUBLES, AND FEARS.
   Psalm 103:3 tells us (God is He )  "Who forgives ALL our iniquities, (and) Who heals ALL our diseases." 

   When do they become OUR diseases? The moment we SAY 
"I have or must have this or that disease." That's when (by your confession) the LYING SYMPTOM the devil's afflicting you with 
become yours-You accept them with your words.

   If we SAY "Oh this pain in my (?) is probably this or that disease." Or "I HAVE CANCER, HEPATITUS, OR WHATEVER
DISEASE,"  THEN they become reality in your body.

   If you realize Jesus IS NOT SICK, HE'S THE HEALTH OF GOD ALMIGHTY and He IS IN YOU, then you ARE NOT SICK (in any way) regardless of any symptoms.
   If you refuse to speak your affliction as truth (and thereby claim it) then it IS NOT YOUR DISEASE.

   My wife was diagnosed with systemic pulmonary disease. God spoke to her and one of my daughters simultaneously "You do not have what the doctors SAY you have." So she kept repeating what God said about her health. The lab tests ALL came back negative.
She never repeated nor accepted the doctor's diagnosis. Instead she believed "The report of the Lord," "By His stripes we ARE healed."

   Jesus IS the Truth, He truly IS the health of God. You are IN Him Who is Truth, and He is IN you, and we know NO lying symptom can exist IN Him.
    We are to speak the Truth only. "I AM the health of God IN Christ Jesus. NO disease, affliction or malfunction is welcome in my body. It will function in the perfection in which it was created.
By His stripes I was healed and by His stripes I am healed.

    Therefore, in the name of Jesus Christ, I command every ailment, sickness, disease and malfunction in my body to cease.  I AM healthy with the health of my Lord Who is Jehovah Rapha-my healer.


   

R. U. Strong and Mighty?

                             R.U. Strong and Mighty

             The Lord gives STRENGTH  to the humble. 
By Faith in the saving Power of the Lord we can believe He will also strengthen us in times of affliction and then AGAINST all affliction. 
   God promises to make us strong against temptation, against the lies of the devil, against the tribulations of life, against sickness and disease .
   Psalm 27:14 "Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and He SHALL STRENGTHEN your heart; wait I say, on the Lord."

   We are told in the New Testament, "(Become and) Be STRONG  in the Lord and in the Power of His might."
   "So you, my son, be strong (strengthened inwardly) in the grace
(spiritual blessing) that is (to be found only) in Christ Jesus."

   Why does God want all believers made strong? Because weakness gains NO VICTORIES over sickness, sin or any works of the  devil. God gets no glory from weakness, only glory OVER it.
   We are created to give God Glory. That's why Psalm 29 says 
"GIVE unto the Lord, O YE MIGHTY, give unto the Lord, Glory and Strength."

   God is Almighty, so how can we give Him Glory and Strength?
Well, we give Him Praise and Thanksgiving. We give Him honor by seeking Him. So we do give unto God, but how do we give Him Glory and Strength?
   The answer lies in Psalm 29 verses 3-9. THE VOICE OF THE LORD... is with Power, Glory and Strength. 
Verse 9 shows the Lord's voice is in His people; "..in His temple (His body of believers) does every one SPEAK of His Glory."

   When people of God, speak God's Word, by the unction and anointing of the Holy Spirit, they are;
  "Mighty warriors, pulling down strongholds, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God."
   
    

Ole Slewfoot's A Liar

   
   Too many Christians don't know how to fight against sickness and disease in their bodies.
   As believers in Christ Jesus, we are to learn how to "Live by Faith." The Word says "When the Lord returns, will He find Faith on the earth?"
   Without Faith, it's impossible to please God. 
James 2:14-26 says Faith without 'Works' (Acting on and doing what God's Word says) is dead, being alone.
   
   Example; I know a man who had cancer symptoms with a lot of pain. He went to a doctor who tested him. Not long after, he went back to find out the results. In the doc's parking lot, his wife asked him, "Are you going to believe man's report. or are you going to ACT IN FAITH and believe the report of the Lord?"
   The man had to choose on the spot. So he said, "Honey, Jesus is "The Great Physician, Jehovah Rapha (our healer). WITH HIM  ALL things are possible and He forgives ALL our iniquities and heals ALL our diseases. So I choose to believe His Word." 
   He got back in his car and drove away, never finding out the doctor's test results.

   The pain grew worse. The man had pastors, friends and ministries pray for him, nothing helped. He was consumed with how bad  he felt, and what the devil was doing to him, so he let everyone know 
about THE DEVIL'S WORKS against him. 
   Literally he was preaching the devil's gospel, how strong the devil was without even realizing it.

   Until one day not long after, he told his wife how much pain he was in (He had no insurance, and did not want to pile up horrendous doctor and hospital bills, so he continued to wait on God to heal him.)
   Her wise answer was in essence, "Stop speaking what the devil's doing and SPEAK THE TRUTH."
   In an instant, the man realized what the Holy Spirit was revealing to him. Jesus Christ IS THE TRUTH and the devil is a LIAR.
THEREFORE ALL DISEASE AND SICKNESS SYMPTOMS
ARE A BALD FACED LIE.  
   Then the man remembered, Jesus became BOTH sin and sick for us on the cross. He became so disfigured with disease the Bible says (He was so ugly) "..that no man would desire Him (To save them)."
And Isaiah 53:5 says "..BY HIS (39) STRIPES (WHICH REPRESENTED  ALL categories of diseases (39 of them)  
WE ARE HEALED."    

   The man realized, he believed 'The Truth-Jesus' and not the devil WHO ALWAYS LIES.
   Therefore ALL the devil's symptoms are lies. So he quit asking for prayer, and began 'Thanking God' (Believing) for answering all prayers for him as Yes and Amen. Then he began (2 Cor. 2:14) Thanking God continually for his healing. He quit telling people about his pain and asking for prayer.

   Believing the health of Jesus Christ WAS HIS, bought for him an Calvary's cross, the man was totally healed in a few days. 

   To God be the glory!
   

Choose Life

   

   James 2:14 "What's the use, my brethren, for anyone to profess to have faith and has not - (Works of Obedience to do what God says)? Can Faith (Alone) save him?"

   vs. 17 "Faith without (Godly) works is dead, being alone."

   vs. 20 "Are you willing to be shown [proof], you foolish fellow, that Faith apart from [(good) works-(Obedience), is inactive and ineffective and worthless?"

   vs. 18 "If a man says "I have faith AND I have works [but has no proof of his works-(they are merely words without action) then I will SHOW proof of my Faith BY MY ACTIONS (Obedience)."

   The man Jesus met at the well (The pool of Bethesda) who was crippled for 36 years used excuses for NOT being healed.    
  "There's NO ONE (Blaming others) to put me in the pool first. I CAN'T get there first when the angel troubles the water!" (Notice: He kept SAYING "I CAN'T THIS AND I CAN'T THAT).  

                    Jesus ignored his feeble excuses.
 The cripple thought he was being truthful and honest but his reasons were NOT THE TRUTH.

   Jesus was the Truth. Jesus was The Resurrection and the Life. Jesus was Jehovah Rapha (Our Healer-The Great Physician).
 Jesus said to the crippled man "WILL YOU BE MADE WHOLE?"

    In other words, "No more excuses. Will you choose to be healed? Will you BELIEVE ME? You don't need an angel to come to you. You don't need to trust in someone else to help you. You ONLY NEED TO ACTIVATE YOUR FAITH IN ME.
                                (Faith of Obedience)
   Do what I tell you to do. "TAKE UP YOUR BED AND WALK." 

   "From the days of John the Baptist until now (til Jesus comes)
the kingdom of Heaven allows the violent (People of obedient faith) to "TAKE it-(Healing, Health, Deliverance) by (the) force (of Faith)." 

   People TAKE by Faith, Christ's healing and delivering power He PROVIDED by His Finished work on the cross of Calvary. He's not GOING TO HEAL, IT'S DONE. Our part is to dare and take it BY FAITH.
   
   James 2:26 "As the body without works is dead, so faith without  (Obedient) works is dead also."

   We are talking about Faith for healing here. Salvation faith can be assured while doubt or fear can interfere with healing.

   

Sayings

   The Pressing comes before the Blessing!

   Fear is the darkroom where people develop their negatives!

   A kite only rises AGAINST the wind!

   Without a battle there is no victory!

   The way up is down, on your knees!

   God accepts KNEE mail!

   Jesus! Don't leave earth without Him! 

   Any other way to God than Jesus is false, deception, lies, and the choice of those who choose hate over Love, death over life, and the devil over God. 

   God's will is no man perish. So CHOOSE LIFE, accept God's ONLY plan of redemption-Faith in Jesus Christ!

   One child asked in Sunday school, "If we're all God's children, 
where are all the parents?"

   God says "I did not call the equipped, I equip the "Called."

   Satan demands and pushes, God leads and guides.

   The world laughs in flowers, and God smiles Yes!

   
   

   

The Shade

   Psalm 91:1 "He that dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty."
   Well since God is Pure Light and there is no darkness or shadow in Him, what shadow is He talking about? 

   Answer: Psalm 121:5 "The Lord is my keeper. The Lord IS MY SHADE on my right hand." 
   The Bible says "We are seated at the Lord's right hand"  

   RIGHT literally means 'Doing and being Right-not wrong' in the Bible.
Even in our society, 'Left' stands for those who oppose what's Right. 

   Since Jesus is seated at the "Right Hand of God" and we are seated at the Lord's Right Hand, then Jesus is between us and God;    He is our 'Go Between, our Intercessor, our Great High Priest Who ever lives to intercede for us to God, (Our Lawyer Supreme Who never loses a case).

   Since Jesus is between us and God, He is the One Who reveals the Love, the Heart, the Will, and plan of God for our lives. 
   Jesus then "Shades us" from the extreme power and presence of God that would literally burn us up if we were to approach Him in our natural state.
   When Peter walked in the power of God's anointing, his SHADOW falling on people healed them. That Shadow was Jesus Christ in Peter's life. 

   Oh Lord praise You for being allowed to come into the very presence of God our Heavenly Father "In the Spirit." 

   Your Word says as your children (of faith in Jesus) we can now come into the "Holy of Holys" "to find Grace to help in time of need."
   Thank You Father for welcoming us into Your Loving arms and draw near to Your heart. 

Lie Cancelling Power

   I do not like giving the enemy airtime however we have to know who he is and be aware of his tactics to defeat him.
   The devil is extremely surreptitious and sly. He deceived Eve and Adam and millions since.
   The Bible says he is more cunning than any beast of the field, however he is not God no matter how much he says he is. 
   
   We do not study witchcraft and satanic works in order to defeat him. That would prove not only dangerous but would result in no victory and be like going after a tank with a fly swatter.
   
   True believers in Jesus Christ seek the Truth that makes us free from lies of the devil AND his ability to deceive us. Jesus Christ IS THE TRUTH OF GOD!

   Folks, I have GREAT NEWS for everyone! 

JESUS CHRIST HAS ALREADY DEFEATED THE DEVIL FOR US. HE PARADED THE DEVIL BEFORE HIS PEERS, NAKED- 
STRIPPED OF ALL HIS WEAPONS. JESUS 'PUBLICLY' HUMILIATED HIM, THEN AROSE FROM THE GRAVE!

JESUS' POWER OF RESURRECTION WAS SO GREAT 500 BURIED SAINTS CAME UP OUT THE GROUND WITH HIM.

   Jesus then gave ALL believers in Him 'POWER OVER ALL THE POWER OF THE ENEMY."
   He said, "NOTHING BY ANY MEANS SHALL HURT YOU."

   Yes everyone who accepts Christ as Savior receives His 'Battle armor-the Armor of God.' (Ephesians 6:13-18).
   The Lord's helmet is your protection from being deceived. It is 'High Tech.' It has 'Lie Cancelling ear coverings' (like noise cancelling earphones). 
   Jesus said "You shall know the TRUTH and His Truth shall MAKE YOU FREE. 
   
   If all prisoners were SET free. Most would be back in prison in a short time. However if they were ALL MADE FREE by Jesus, then virtually NO ONE would return to prison.

   
   

What's Your Pleasure?

   The only safe place on earth is IN GOD. People take drugs to enter into a mindset of utopia. The pleasure drug addicts feel is a place of escape from their troubles.
   
   With drugs there are consequences and effects that are destructive, costly and deadly. 
   However we can experience pleasures here on earth which come from knowing God through faith in His Son Jesus Christ, that                     NOTHING IN THIS WORLD CAN MATCH! 

   I know for two reasons. 

1. God's Word is infallible and He cannot lie. HE SAID through Jesus (His Word [THE WORD WAS GOD] that became flesh and lived among us)
"MY PEACE I give you-NOT LIKE THE WORLD GIVES give I unto you." 
Note: His peace- the peace of God is absolutely PRICELESS, it banishes away ALL WORRY, ALL DEPRESSION, ALL FEAR OF DEATH, TORTURE, FAMINE,  EVEN SATAN HIMSELF AND ANYTHING HE PLANS AGAINST US. 

   How can we have this incredible peace and what about the pleasures we seek?
   First, by taking a leap of faith. Jesus Christ is God's ONLY plan of salvation. Ask Jesus to save you, to come into your heart; BELIEVE He became sin on the cross for you, that He shed His holy blood for you (JOHN 3:16). 
   He promised He would then NEVER leave you nor forsake you.

   "Seek you first the kingdom of God and HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS (Which you have, the moment you ask Jesus to save you) and the rest of these things (i.e. Peace, Joy, Health, Prosperity and PLEASURES) shall be added unto you.
Note: The above 'Things' are added-(Revealed to your heart, soul and mind) as you grow in the knowledge, will and understanding of God's heart toward you. 

   Yes, I said 'Pleasures' also.
Psalm 16:11 says "You will show me the path of life: in Your presence is fullness of Joy: at Your right hand, there are PLEASURES forevermore."
   Ephesians tells us, as believers in Christ, we ARE SEATED AT HIS RIGHT HAND IN HEAVENLY PLACES with Christ Jesus (Spiritually speaking).

  2.  Now the second reason I KNOW there are pleasures with God is because He physically touched me one night when I was asking Him if speaking in tongues was of Him or were the people imagining things.
   People, hear me and hear me good! I was hit with the power of God SO GREAT  (in a small prayer meeting) [To prove to me that 'Being slain the Spirit' was from God alone], 
   that a million, billion fireworks went off in my body, every nerve end exploding in the greatest feelings of pleasure any man could ever know.
I assure you, ALL of the greatest pleasures I could ever experience as a man, put together couldn't equal that one incredible, awesome moment. And I know it was but a foretaste of heaven with God.

   Acts 2:25, 28 Amp.
vs. 25. (For the Lord) is at my right hand that I may not be shaken (be afraid) or cast down (from my secure and happy state).
vs. 28. You have made known to me the "Ways of (Your) Life";
You will enrapture me (diffusing my soul with joy) with and in Your presence."
"In the presence of the Lord, there is fullness of joy."
