God Guide Me

 God’s word gives us clear words on prophecy. Like many things of God, Satan has a shadow version so he may deceive society. Since modern predictions scare me, if you are like me, I just mind my own business and do what God asks me to do. Is that thoroughly Biblical? Did God’s word say in Acts 2:17-21 that His people shall prophesy in the last days? If so, then why do God’s people recoil if someone mentions a prophetic word? What can we do about it?

These past few days, I have stood firm on most prophecies concerning the election. Why? Because the ones I am looking at require God’s people to seek God for intervention. Nothing about that goes against the will of God.
I guess the next question is, “Am I setting myself up for disappointment?” The last time I questioned God, He brought me to the words of Hebrews 10:38. “MY RIGHTEOUS ONE SHALL LIVE BY FAITH: AND IF HE SHRINKS BACK; MY SOUL HAS NO PLEASURE IN HIM.” The all caps are from the New American Standard Bible and not me. During these turbulent times, it is your free will choice on where you stand. I believe that is the whole point. As a church, we are looking everywhere to fill our spiritual cups except God. We have Americanized God to the point that if we do not get an answer to prayer immediately, we walk.
In my quiet time with God this morning, I was pleading for clear direction, so I do not fail Him. God guided me to read Ezra 5 and 6. Please read it for yourself, but I will sum it up. When the prophets prophesied to the Jews, God’s people arose and began to rebuild the house of God. Then in verse 14, it says they were successful in building through the prophesying, and they finished building according to the command of the God of Israel.
I would recommend all of God’s people to continue in prayer concerning voter suppression, corrupt computer programs, and illegal votes. If God had His people prophesy to seek His face concerning this issue, then you have to make up your mind what you believe and what you will do. God will hold all of us accountable for our actions or lack thereof. God told us that we would appear foolish to the world. How else will Satan get you to stop obeying God? He appeals to your emotions because he knows it usually works. If that doesn’t, then evil attempts to intimidate, but that is another lesson altogether.
Suggested reading: 1 Corinthians 1:18-31, Romans 14:16-23, Ezra chapter 5 and 6

There is Life and Death in the Tongue

  There is life and death in the tongue. In the beginning, God created man to be in authority. Since the fall of man, many now see any so-called authority in our words, as crazy superstition or demonic. By perverting the concept, Satan has us speaking negative words in doubt and unbelief. We are literally cursing our own destinies because we do not understand that from the beginning, words were used to create. Now, evil uses words to destroy with constant negative, complaining, and destructive talk. It is everywhere, and the church is participating. Jesus has taken all authority from Satan and returned it to His children. Being ignorant concerning precisely what the blood of Christ at the cross has restored to us, we are still declaring ourselves destined for illness and great sorry on this earth. Many have confused trials and tribulations as one’s lot in life, so we then do not speak in authority against it because we believe Sovereign God wants us sick and hurting

The Silent Majority Must Find Their Voice

  One thing I have learned in the almost eleven years of mission ministry is if someone believes a lie, there is nothing you can do or say that will convince them otherwise. Only God can reveal the truth and open the heart to receive it. Lies based on fear, I believe, take root at the core to shore up an eroding foundation. As Christ-followers, we tell our children the danger of building your house upon the sand. Ironically, Satan entered the Church and convinced God’s people that God does not heal anymore; therefore, the foundation of healing became sand for many. So for the last two years, fear has struck the hearts of God’s people with one medical fear after another. The results became leaders of the Church proclaiming secular practices and bragging they had done their part and the trust in God eroded a little more and more. Those that can see the truth that has watched secular spiritualism invade our church family are at a loss as to what to do. Maybe because we

Questions about Fasting Part One

  Was fasting a foretelling of repentance and dying to self? Everything in the Old Testament Jewish faith was the "first to establish the second," meaning the religious acts were a foretelling to set up the death and resurrection of Christ. The practice of circumcision is not a sacred act anymore, nor is sacrifice. Why? Because in the New Covenant through Jesus, circumcision is now of the heart and not the flesh. The book of Romans reminds us that every religious act of the flesh has been replaced by living under grace through faith. So why are we continuing the practice of fasting for repentance or sorrow? Is that not an act of flesh? Do we not believe that if we confess our sins, Jesus is faithful and just to forgive us? Why do you have to starve yourself to get God to move or hear Him? Don't we believe that He has heard us if we ask according to His will? Do you think God is motivated more by our acts of humility or our acts of faith? Does He not kn
