Creator, Christ, Comforter

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.

In the beginning was God, the Creator of the universe. No one can explain the existence of God, or how He came about. We do know according to the Bible, that Jesus was with the the Father in the beginning according to Genesis 1:26 (And God said, Let s make man in our image, after our likeness). God wasn’t  talking to Himself  or the angels, He was talking  to His Son, Jesus the Christ of God.

God is the creator of the universe, He is the Father of Jesus, He is an entity of Himself. When God created man who He called Adam, He fellowshipped with Adam in the Garden of Eden prior to Adam and Eve’s disobedience to His instructions (And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself). So this scriptures indicates, God was communicating with Adam and Eve in the Garden. Naked indicates exposed, destitue; whenever sin is presence, we try to hid ourselves or we deny the sin, fooling ourselves.

Jesus instructed the disciples before anyone could come to Him, the Father must first draw the individual. (No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day). Jesus wasn’t talking about Himself, He was talking about His Father, distinguishing that He and the Father are two separate entities, but one Spirit. When we pray, we pray to the Father, but we ask the prayer in the name of Jesus, not in the name of God (And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son).

Until Death Do We Part

Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; (Ephesians 5:25)   Wives, submit yourselves unto own husbands, as unto the Lord (Ephesians 5:22) Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God. (Ephesians 5:21)

Marriage was ordained by God in the Garden of Eden with Adam and Eve. When God brought Eve to Adam she came to him as his wife, not his girl-friend, fiancee or friend with benefits, but his wife. God looks upon marriage as sacred because it was ordained by Him, and everything God created was good. It was man who distorted what God created to be a pleasure for the husband and wife. Eve was created for Adam, and she was to be his helpmeet, indicating she was to be his aid, his assistance, his lover and friend.

When God created Eve, He didn’t bring Sue and Rhonda, or Jim and Bob to the marriage. It was one man and one woman, and it was ordained by God. Couples should honor and respect their marriage vows.  Society is changing spouses as though they were changing garments. When a couple takes a marriage vow, it should be until one of the spouses die. As Christians we’re  to abide by the law of God which is His word (The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord – Romans 7:39) . This scripture is for both the wife and the husband because marriage is a spiritual contract between the two. A contract or written agreement should not be broken unless one of the parties does not hold-up their agreements such as abuse,  and adultery, even if this occurs, God can still mend what has been broken. He can destroy what has been in the marriage that shouldn’t have been, and restore the years that the canker worms and locust stole and took if we place our trust in Him and allow Him to heal or annul the marriage.

Marriage is not honored the way God created it to be. That is why you have people living in Common Law and think because man agrees to it, that it’s ok with God. God never changes.  He has given instructions, if we desire to act as though we’re married, then we should marry; this will keep us from sinning against God and our bodies. If you die while living in a Common Law marriage, you are hell bound.

Satan has fooled so many married couples to think that it’s better to be with someone other than their spouse. Marriage will be what you allow it to be and what you create it to be. Marriage cannot be contained by one person, it took two to get married and it’s going to take two to keep it.  In the Christian community, we should not allow divorce to be an option, due to the fact that we know who ordained marriage and we know who comes to destroy, steal and kill the gift God has given. Marriage is a gift from God, and we should respect, honor and be appreciative of what God has given us.

No matter how long you have been married, the joy of marriage should be  greater than what it was in the beginning, the older it gets, the better it should be. When you walked down the aisle, God knew what was coming in the marriage prior to you saying “I do”;  and He will prepare you to conquer whatever comes in your marriage. A marriage stops when we stop being concerned about one another’s feelings. Marriage is not about you, its about how you can make your spouse happy. When you have two people denying themselves focusing on what makes their spouse happy, you will have a successful marriage.

God has given us an instruction manual, and when we read the manual and follow it’s instructions, God’s blessings will be upon the marriage. A marriage should exemplify the marriage we have as Christians with Christ, it should be inseparable. We should not allow anything or anyone  to seperate our love for our spouse.

Marriage is about love, it shouldn’t be based on what you see on the outside or how your spouse makes you feel physically, because if you stay married long enough, you’re going to grow old and in your old age both you and your spouse will change in shape and size.  If your basing your relationship on the physical intimacy as you grow older things change and your not going to be able to perform as you did in your younger years. So you should be in love, not lusting.  God has given instructions for marriage, and when we disobey the word of God, we suffer the consequences. We should follow the instructions God has given us whether or not our spouse is or is not. When you obey the word of God, God will fight for you if you place you trust in Him and don’t place your trust in what you’re seeing and hearing in your marriage.

Husbands are to love their wives as Christ loves the church and gave himself for it. God created the man to be head of the family, it’s his responsbility to provide and to protect his wife. Husbands and wives should not allow friends, family or parents to meddle in their marriage. If there’s a problem in the marriage they should go to their pastor and a reliable Christian counselor. God knows your spouse better than you ever will, acknowledge God and let Him direct you how to minister to your spouse. Marriage is a ministry and spouses  need to learn how to serve one another.

To keep Satan out of your heart and marriage, you have to keep it cleansed with the washing of the word and prayer. There is no way you’re truly connected to God, and your heart is desiring someone other than your spouse. Disconnection starts in the heart and as it enters into the heart, the mind begins to dwell on what’s in the heart and before you know it, you caring out the actions that started in the heart (For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornicationss, thefts, false witness, blasphemies – Matthew 15:19)

When you and your spouse is walking in agreement and have Jesus as your Savior as well as your Lord, Satan cannot come and take you or your spouse unless you allow sin to enter in.  Too many are praying, but not being watchful, God has instructed us to watch as well as pray. Satan looks for a loop-hole where he can enter. Spouses are to protect each other, and they can only do that when they have a relationship with God,  wait, and listen and follow His instructions.  God knows where the enemy is prior to him attacking, and if we’re on our prayer watch, God will show us the enemy, his tricks and schemes, his methods of destroying you and your marriage prior to the attack.

Your marriage should be the same committment you made to Jesus to follow Him the rest of your life. Satan uses our senses to detour our obligation to our Savior as well as our marriage. Satan will use a television program to make fornication and adultery seem delightful and it’s the right thing to do. Cheating on your spouse if he or she is not meeting your needs is the easy way out to destruct marriage. Talk with your spouse and inform them of what your needs are rather than you having them try to guess what you need. Your spouse is not a magician neither are they a mind-reader.

God holds us responsible for how we treat our spouse (Ye say, Wherefore? Because the Lord hath been witness between thee and the wife of thy youth, against whom thou hast dealt treacherously: yet is she thy companion, and the wife of thy covenant. And did not he make one? Yet had he the residue of the spirit. And wherefore one? That he might seek a godly seed. Therefore take heed to your spirit, and let none deal treachously against the wife of his youth – Malachi 2:14-15). This scripture is not just for men, but women must abide by this scripture as well, because remember, you are no longer two, but one. What goes for the husband goes for the wife and vice-versa.

Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath – Ephesians 4:26 There will be times you will have a disagreement with your spouse, but don’t carry it to bed with you, try to resolve the problem prior to going to bed for who knows, that might be the time God calls you home, and you have all this anger bottle up in your heart. Or perhaps your spouse may die while asleep and you didn’t take the time to forgive one another and show the love that’s really in your heart prior to going to sleep, that would be something to hunt you the rest of your life and Satan will remind you of it.

Know that Satan does not want your marriage to be successful. A successful marriage goes further than the home. When you have two people walking together in agreement, it will be a blessing to your neighborhood, schools and churches because there is unity and love. Dysfunctional marriages produce dysfunctional families. Dysfunctional families produce dysfunctional communities, society and churches.  Marriage is more than two people joining together, but it’s to reproduce a society with morals, ethics, unity, agreement, goals and to teach others how to reverence God.  If you have two people that love and honor God, it will go further than the home, it will reach the community.  If you reverence and love God you will love His people. If the greatest love is living within you, you will produce love in your surroundings, and love will conquer evil and wickedness.  Before you say “I do”, take the time to count the cost, before you go to divorce court, remember what you vowed before God and your spouse.  Matthew 19:6 – Wherefore they are no more twain (two), but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.

Do You Believe?

Genesis 17:7 – And I will establish my covenant between me and thee and thy seed (descendants) after thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto thee, and to thy seed (descendants) after thee.

Covenant – An agreement, a promise  –  Descendants – An offspring of a certain ancestor, family, group

The God we serve, is a God that keeps His promise, He makes good of His word. God cannot lie, when He gives you a promise, no matter how long it takes for the promise to manifest, believe God’s word, hold on to the promise He has given you. God  made a covenant with Abraham as well as Abraham’s descendants as long as they walked before God according to His instructions.  God blessed Abraham spiritually (justification because of his faith in God’s promise), naturally (children born to him through his wives) and wealth.

As the people of God, He desires to bless us as He did with Abraham, but in order for us to come into the blessings, we must be as faithful to God as Abraham.  Throughout the Bible there are promises, and the promise always comes with the word “if”.  For example, If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and  it shall be given unto (for) you – John 15:7, and the word “believe” And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive – Matthew 21:22.

If you study the Bible, you will see the majority of the time when an individual prayed or was given a promise it didn’t come right away except for a few occasions. Don’t think because your prayer hasn’t been answered, God has not heard the prayer or He has denied it, the prayer is delayed, but not denied.

God wants us to have “Now faith” in every situation and circumstance. There is nothing too hard for God, nothing impossible for Him. Whatever you may be going through and it seems impossible, then its an opportunity for God to show Himself  in your behalf. The delay is to build your faith in God and not what you’re going through.

There was a woman in the Bible with an issue of blood for twelve years, she went to different physicians seeking healing. She spent all of  her money and didn’t receive healing, matter of a fact, the Bible states she became worse because it was nothing the doctors could do for her.  She heard about Jesus and decided she would try Him. She said to herself, “If I may but touch his garment, I shall be made whole”. Because of her faith in Him, she received her healing. There is no sickness, disease or infirmity that is greater than God.  Sometimes we receive sickness and diseases because of the way we have treated ourselves and there are times, we have been attacked by spirits of sickness and disease. No matter if its physical or spiritual, God is the God that heals, He is the Great Physician!

There was a woman in the Bible bound by a spirit of infirmity for eighteen years she was bent over, she couldn’t raise herself, but when she came in contact with Jesus, when He prayed for her, she was healed from the infirmity. Infirmity is a weakness, it can be either physical or spiritual. If it’s a weakness you should know it didn’t come from God and if it didn’t come from God, it came from Satan and you don’t have to except what Satan offers you. You have the choice to except or decline.

Pray until you see a manifestation of your prayer being answered.  Don’t let anyone tell you if you pray more than once, you don’t believe. Jesus gave a parable about a woman who was petitioning a judge for her son. The  judge didn’t fear God nor man, but because the woman continued to come to him making her request,  the judge granted her request. Jesus said, “and shall not God avenge his own elect which cry day and night unto him” (Luke 18:6-8). Continuing to pray does not mean you don’t have faith, but you are doing it  according to the Bible continually.

Know when you pray, Satan will try to stop you from receiving your prayer by giving you doubt and fear because he knows if we’re doubting it doesn’t please God. So what Satan will do is make you have fear, something God has told us He hasn’t given us ( 2nd Timothy 1:7 – For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love and of a sound mind). When Daniel prayed, the Bible states, God heard his prayer as soon as he prayed and sent an angel to give him the answer, but the Prince of Persia (Satan) withheld him from bringing the answer.

People of God too many believe there is a God, but when Satan is mentioned, it’s like it’s a fairytale. Satan is real and he has an army. When Satan rebelled against God, the Bible states, a third of heavens angels followed him. The angels that followed him are the angels that comes against us today. The world is in the state it’s in because there are evil spirits ruling while people keep denying there are evil spirits. Just as God uses a human vessels to manifest Himself, Satan uses people too.

There is realm in the spirit when you begin to really fast and pray and seek the face of God, you will sometimes feel evil spirits  presence as well as see them as the  Lord allows you to see in the spirit.  We’re  spiritual beings living in a natural world. Satan and his imps will try to do everything they can to stop you from receiving what God has for you, but you have to come to a conclusion, Greater is He that lives within you, than He that lives in the world. The God you serve has given you a portion of  His Spirit that lives in your human body, no way you can lose unless you hand it over to the enemy. The Bible says we’re more than conquerors (Roman 8:37 -Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us).

Satan wants to keep us ignorant to Him, that’s why its so hard for many Christians to have a prayer time. Taking time to read the Bible. Satan will make sure he steals your time away from God, if you allow him. When we pray consistently, making time for God, He will give us revelation of  things happening around us, giving us instructions of what to do, and what not to do. What to pray for and what manner of prayer we should pray.

Do you believe God loves? Do you know He wants the best for you? No matter what you may be going through, God has a plan for your life, God’s thoughts towards you are not evil, but good to bring you to an expected end. God gave His best for your life, you are in God’s eyesight, the very hairs on your head, He is aware of it (Matthew 10:30 – But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.  So you should know, since God knows how many hairs are on your head, don’t you think He would know what your in, what your going through, what you need?

People of God, we must take the time to pray and study the Bible, don’t just skim over it, but take time and compile scripture reference, pray and ask God to give you understanding.  As you dedicate yourself to prayer, studying the word of God, you will begin to see a spiritual change in your life. You cannot keep coming in contact with God, and your life doesn’t change. Everyone in the Bible that came in contact with the Master, they were changed, from a non-believer to a believer, they were changed from sickness to health, they were changed from being blind to sight, deaf ears were open, vocal cords were healed, the dead was raised. He did it for them, He will do it for you! When you pray, believe what you’re praying for will be answered, when you are praying according to the word of God, and the will of God (1st John 5:14-15 – And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask anything according to his will, he   us:V-15- And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired (asked) of him).

God wants to answer your prayer,  just as much as you want Him to answer it, but you have a part to play in receiving the answer to your prayer. You must believe your prayer has been heard and God is going to answer your prayer. When you pray, believe!  Mark 11:24 - Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them. Secondly, you cannot be in fear, fear is the opposite of faith, fear is from Satan, it’s not from God. Neither can you be double minded, you can’t go back and forth, today you believe, tomorrow your wondering if God’s going to do it, and if so, how long will it be before your prayer will be answered. The Bible states a double-minded person will not receive anything from the Lord. So purpose in your heart, God has heard the prayer and He’s going to answer the prayer.

Sometimes you have to encourage yourself  in the Lord when you don’t see the prayer being answered, sometimes things will get worse before they get better. When it gets worse, say to yourself, my prayer is answered, God is working on the problem,  providing the need, the answer will come at it’s appointed time!

Have You Received the Holy Spirit?

Posted by cluke1315 on Dec 25, 2011 in Inspirational, Sermonettes | 0 comments

Acts 19:2 He said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed? And they said unto him We have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost.

While Apostle Paul was in Corinth, he  passed through Ephesus and communicated with some disciples who hadn’t received the Holy Spirit.  They had received the teaching of the Lord,  they were baptized for the remission of sin, but they hadn’t received the filling of the Holy Spirit.  Just like those disciples, there are many Christians  today who have been baptized for the remission of sin, but have not received the filling of the Holy Spirit.

Baptism is an initiation unto the Christian community, being filled is having the Spirit of God indwelling your human spirit. Jesus was our example of what we should do as Christians. Jesus was baptized by John in the Jordan River, after Jesus’  baptism; the Holy Spirit came upon Jesus descending upon Him in the form of a dove. The Bible does not indicate Jesus, casting out demons, healing the sick or performing miracles until He was filled with the Holy Spirit.

Every disciple or followers of Christ should be filled with the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is not just about speaking in another language we can’t understand, but it’s the Holy Spirit of God indwelling our human spirit; enabling us to fight against the sins of the soul (mind, will and emotions). We cannot produce fruit unless the Holy Spirit of God is indwelling us, neither can the gifts of the Spirit be in operation effectively.

The Spirit of God wants to do more than just come upon us, but He wants to indwell our human body, enabling us to communicate with the Father and produce godly fruit. When a Christian does not have the Holy Spirit, he or she thinks and does as the secular world.  The Bible calls this carnality. A carnal Christian cannot enter into the kingdom of God, because they are still practicing what they were doing prior to receiving Jesus as their Savior. We cannot serve God and Satan, either we will serve God or we will serve Satan, we cannot serve both although some think they can (He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked -1st John 2:6).

When we have completely given ourselves to God, we will suffer in our flesh because the flesh does not care for the things of God, but the things of the world. The reason why we aren’t seeing the manifestation of God’s Spirit as they did in Bibical days is because we have not dedicated ourselves to God as they did nor do we have the faith. We can look at television for hours, but will not take twenty or thirty minutes to read our Bible. Fasting assists us to dominate our flesh, but usually, we will not fast until something is wrong and we want God to help us. Fasting is not for God, it’s for us. It helps us to submit to the things of God and not the things of our flesh. Prayer builds our faith in God, little prayer – little faith, much prayer – big faith!

When we have received the Holy Spirit, we will pray without the pastor asking us to pray. We will fast without the pastor calling a fast. We will read our Bible while we are not attending church.  We will purpose in our hearts to obey the word of God, no matter what it takes. We cannot resist the devil if the Holy Spirit isn’t indwelling us. We cannot pray for the things God desires us to pray for if the Holy Spirit is not there to give us an unction of what to pray for. It’s the Spirit of God that enables us to do the things that are pleasing to God. The gifts of the Spirit cannot operate effectively if we don’t have the Holy Spirit. Matter of fact preaching or teaching is not effective if the Holy Spirit  isn’t indwelling the preacher or teacher. When preaching and teaching is empowered by the Holy Spirit, He will convict people of sin, giving them a heart to repent.

The baptism of  the Holy Spirit is the act by which Jesus, through the Spirit at conversion, brings the believer into a relationship with  Himself and makes the believer a part of God’s people – the church. The filling of  the Holy Spirit is a continuous experience as the believer submits themselves to the Spirit. The Holy Spirit will not overpower our will, but the believer must submit themselves in order to be controlled by the Holy Spirit; therefore producing godliness, the character of God and His virtue.

The reason why so many Christians are having difficulty submitting to the word of God is because they have not received the Holy Spirit or they have not allowed the Holy Spirit to control their thoughts and actions. If the will is submitted, the actions will be submitted to the thoughts whether they are godly or ungodly. When the Holy Spirit is in control, He will guide and direct the individual in the things of  God, assisting the believer to set their affections on heavenly and godly things rather than the things of the world.

The Holy Spirit comforts the believer when they go through difficulties, trials and tribulations.  The Holy Spirit will pray through the believer when they don’t know what  to pray or how to pray for certain situations or circumstance. The Holy Spirit assist us to communicate with God through His Spirit (1st Corinthians 14:2 – For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries).

In order for us to commune, have fellowship and a relationship with God, His Spirit must be indwelling our human spirit. God does not want us to be luke-warm Christians (Revelation 3:16 – So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spew thee out of my mouth). The Holy Spirit convicts of sin. If He’s not indwelling us, we will continue in our sin and think there is nothing wrong with the way we live. That is why it is so important to read the Bible, it’s God’s instructions for His people. How can we please God and we don’t know the instructions He has given us.?

When you look at the news, our communities, and the devastation happening around the world, God is trying to get our attention. It’s time we stop playing church and having church as usual and nothing is happening. It’s time we seek God like never before, praying, reading the Bible, and fasting and most of all committing ourselves to the word of God. If you don’t have the Holy Spirit, you must repent of the sins you know you have committed. Lying, faultfinding, gossiping, envy, jealousy, criticizing, fault-finding, fornicating, adultery, masturbation, fear, pride and whatever else you know you have done, if it’s contrary to the word of God then it’s sin! When you truly give yourself to God, He will fill you with His Holy Spirit (Luke 11:13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall you heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?

 My Christian brothers and sisters, Jesus is on his way back, are we prepared for His coming?  Are we living a life that is pleasing in God’s eyes? Are we living a life that will be  an example of our Father?  Are we really loving the way God has instructed us to love? God does not want us to have fleshly love, but Agape love, that’s the love no matter what a person does, you will still love  and pray the best for them.

No matter what denomination you may be, you still need to be sanctified and filled with the Holy Spirit. Jesus is not returning for a denomination, but He’s returning for His church, the body of Christ (John 3:5 Jesus answered , Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God). Don’t continue to attend church and reject the word of God, God holds you responsible for what you hear, and He holds you accountable of what you don’t comply to.  Jesus loves His people, but He does not love the sin, if we continue in sin, we will be hell bound that’s including the tongue talkers, church-goers, and those professing to be Christians. God is not willing for any to perish, but if we don’t conform to His instructions , we are candiates for Hell.

The Holy Spirit will not make us do the right thing, but He will guide us into righteousness and godliness if we allow Him. It will be a sad thing to attend church and still go to Hell because we didn’t follow the instructions given to us through the man or woman of God. They speak as God’s spokesperson, He speaks through them; giving us instructions how to live according to God’s standards.

If you are a professing Christian, you should be asking your Heavenly Father to give you the Holy Spirit, it’s a gift from God that enables His people to be strong in Him and the power of His might. As Christians we need more than water baptism, we need the baptism and the filling of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit empowers us to do the work of the Lord by empowering us to take our domination on the earth that was given away when Adam and Eve disobeyed God. If you have purpose in your heart, and in your mind to submit your life according to God’s word; you are a candidate for receiving the Holy Spirit (Acts 2:38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of  you in then name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost (Spirit).

It’s time we take our dominion, take authority over Satan, his imps and his followers through the power of God that lives within our being. We’re not fighting a physical war, but a spiritual war, and we can only win through fighting in the Spirit (Acts 1:8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem [0ur home], and in all Judea [(church community, and in Samaria [our community], and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

Christmas

Posted by cluke1315 on Dec 24, 2011 in Inspirational | 0 comments

For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The Mighty God, the everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace. Isaiah 9:6

Christmas is an exciting and joyful time of the year for most, but there are some who go into depression because of  loneliness, they are either single, widower or divorce. Others have  anxiety because they don’t have the funds to buy for themselves and for others. Then it’s those who despise Christmas because it makes them think about the celebration of  Jesus’  birth. The majority have agreed to take Christmas and make it a “Holiday” rather than the celebration of  the birth of Jesus, they have taken the Christ out of Christmas.

No matter what religion a person practice; they may deny, reject, despise, and scorn the name of Jesus, but it doesn’t take away from the Savior being born and through Him and Him only shall one be saved from their sins. When God created man, He created man in the image of God, not by nationality or religion. There isn’t a god for each nationality, but there is a God who created humanity, and because He is the creator of humanity, He’s the God of heaven and earth whether people except or deny Him, He will still be God!
