So nice of you to join me again as we continue to worship the Lord God Almighty through His living Word. Hope all is going well with you. Our God is a strong tower and faithful to fulfill His Word. All of His promises are yes and amen for you my dearly beloved. No weapon formed against you shall prosper and you are more than a conqueror through Him...Christ our Lord. The work He began in you He will finish. If God died for you when you were still in sin and strangers to the covenants of promise, how much more will He now deliver you from all the chaos which is soon to encompass the whole earth. These are just a few of the countless promises we find in God's Holy Word. Let's make a pact shall we? Let's, (together) hold on to Jesus; His faithful promises and each other in these last days. We are going to make it !!
God has given me many new and fresh messages over the past few months. They are still alive and will be presented when He sees fit. For now the Holy Spirit has led me to type yet another message from times past. This one (again) is a Christmas message from last year. Let us pray: Holy Father, we come to You again to share Love. Help us to receive Your love. Help us to love You and each other. Help us to trust You, obey You and to have joyful expectation of Your Coming. We love You and want You. Give us ears to hear what You are saying to us. In Jesus name we pray...AMEN.
Followers of Jesus have a hard time separating Christmas and Easter. Why? Because in our hearts, on this day, hope was born. A hope clothed in humility...the God of all gods lying in a dirty stable for me. FOR YOU !! But on this day Love was also birthed into our atmosphere. Because on this day we also discovered that God Jesus would die on the cross and go to hell to pay our sin debt. Did not the angels declare, "peace on earth, good will toward man?" Since Father God calls the end from the beginning then they were prophetically crying out, "Hey, on that Calvary tree, soon enough, the sin debt will be paid...peace between God and man. Then you can approach this awesome Love without fear....you will be forgiven. If you go through the only Door...the One lying between the donkey and the lamb."
But like Paul said, let us go on to more mature thinking and doing. By now we all get the Jesus scene...WHAT WE NEED NOW IS TO GET JESUS !! Deep is calling unto deep. We are living in an age where God is demanding more from His ambassadors then ever before. Well, let's just say that we are becoming more aware (by the Holy Spirit) that there is so much more than "just believe." The devils believe and tremble. There is much more than religious duties and hardships of ministry. Now Elijah cries out again, "Repent and prepare the way....for the Kingdom (power) of God has arrived !!"
An interesting word "prepare." A word we must lay hold of because without walking in the invisible preparation demanded of our heart NOW, we will be like the foolish virgins and be left behind when the King's trumpet sounds.

Didn't Jesus say, "consider the cost" if you want to follow Him? It cost Him everything and He demands the same from us. If we are not willing to die to our selfish will now...how will we kill our physical body through being beheaded during the tribulation? It's not as easy as you may think. So, let's be on the first boat load out. Not pressing so we can have eternal life, but DESPERATELY pressing to know Him who knows us...A love affair NOW !!
I know all too well how it feels when the Holy Spirit wells up on the inside. Before my new birth He tugged. I resisted. He is still tugging. I am still resisting at times. It's like something is about to explode on the inside...it's like if I could just exhale then I would be free to dance in the aroma of Jesus. My spirit is strong and willing, but my fearful flesh is weak. What would happen if when the next time I sense this deep calling to deep, I choose to do something different? To just cry out to God in that moment, "Oh God, I am yours...I give up...I am yours !" I am confident that when that desperation meets His desperation (displayed on Calvary to save me) then a most unique thing would occur. I would finally have my hearts desire. To love my Jesus without any reservation. To finally receive all that He has died for to give me...His Love. His mercy. His forgiveness. His Glory flowing outward from us who believe...towards the world of darkness and unbelief. True ambassadors after all...true representatives of the Father...displays of His Love in Jesus. Displayed for all to see.
Could it be? Yes, it is demanded. Have mercy on us all oh Glorious God. Soon enough men's hearts will begin to fail because of fear. The Jesus in us will be there for them. As for us...we will be safe and secure from all alarms. Why?
Because when desperation's collide...(our desperation to have Him who is desperate to have us) then Jesus (hope) is born again. Love and mercy (His death and resurrection) is born again. God's Glory will fill the earth. Let's prepare. Let's be expectant. Let's fall in love with Jesus all over again. He couldn't live without us. Do we have the same heart? Is that our cry this Christmas morning? IS THAT OUR CRY?
