MONDAY MORNING MESSAGE FOR The Eternal Body Of Christ 9-17-12

Good Morninnnng,

I must admit, its slightly controversial discussing this the Lord has been weighing on my heart that there is a message here for someone, somewhere, who really needs to hear it, know it and receive it. You are about to get a birds eye view of the reality of choosing to follow in Godly obedience, the benefit & the cost of not following.

There was a time, when never on Friday or Saturday night, would I be at home, not on a date or out at some "In Spot" whooping it up and having a good time. That life is so far in my past, I don't miss it one bit, although it still calls out for me from time to time. My answer is always the same; "I just don't need you any more, you have nothing to offer me & I don't want to associate with you any longer!" It's just a fact, I have no desire for that in my life and have not for many years now. Why have I abstained from that type of recreation, lifestyle and social interactions; because it doesn't line up with what God has groomed me for, its contrary in nature to what I stand for and the experiences that are to be had in those environments are the ones that lead to hard life lessons. Seed sewn in good soil yields excellent fruit, seed sewn in the swamp yields fruit of another type, toxic and unedifying.

Here it was one of these nights and I was fixing to work on a project; I saw a picture of a lovely necklace which grabbed me instantly, it's composition & form were so lovely. It had a special pendant that read, "He held her like a seashell and listened to her heart". Just so whimsical, feminine & lovely! I knew at first glance that I could replicate this piece! Fast forward ahead, as I was making & assembling this necklace, I found myself having a discussion with the Lord, to which I exclaimed; "Well, Lord?, What about the "Boaz" you promised me, where is he?!...When are you going to send me The man that I deserve?"...Like a download into my spirit, heart & mind; Father spoke to me in such a pause & with these words..."I will not do that, He will treat you BETTER than you deserve, because that's what I want for you & how MUCH I love you!" I trembled in delight, immediately I became re-invested, entranced, excited and heart fixed on what God gave to me in that moment.

If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask Him!
(Matt. 7:11)
Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning.
(James 1:17)

But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. ( Isaiah 41:3)

"I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances… I have learned the secret of being content in
any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do
everything through him who gives me strength” (Philippians 4:11-13).

With this nugget, as a token of my extensive wait, He also began to reveal to me the flip side. What is happening to those in their lives, who are NOT WAITING UPON HIM, who are settling, selling out and/or dispersing their blessings before they are ever received. In an effort to NOT BE ALONE, many have found themselves in UnGodly relationships where they are more alone in the same room with another person than they would be had they stayed single. Many more are taking on demonic spirits of those whom they have coupled with, they are becoming overthrown by the demonic influences that haunt their mate. It's not fiction BUT fact, any copulation done outside the marriage Blessing of God's ordination IS NOT PROTECTED. Therefore, when two become one, you get all their baggage (spiritually & sometimes, physically too) Like a person wearing two different shoes or two totally different fragments forcibly merged together, there is no harmony, no real peace. To some degree, all of these things are happening to those who decide to assert their decision over Gods decision, thinking they can bypass Gods rules in conduct and precept. A person that treats you well is base minimum, status quo. God demands and insures that if you Trust and wait on Him you will not have to compromise your morals or your requirements in a Mate!

Pre-Marital Sex is SIN. Sex outside of marriage (i.e. “fornication” in the King James Version, “sexual immorality” in the NIV, pick your translation) is not something God glosses over in the Bible. “Fornication,” “fornications,” and “fornicators,” are all described as sin at least 43 times in the Bible, stretching from the Old Testament all the way to the end of the New Testament in the book of Revelation, where it is mentioned 12 times in 10 different scriptures (Rev. 2:14, 20, 21; 9:21, 14:8; 17:2, 4; 18:3, 9; 19:2). (http://www.districtdiva.com/2011/04/twisted-why-gods-no-marriage-no-sex-rule-is-for-protection-and-pleasure-not-punishment/)

The way demons gain access into a believer's life, is through open doors. There are certain sins and things we can do that will defile us (make us unclean). For example, having unholy sex can create unholy soul ties, which serve as demonic bridges, and can pass bondages from one person to another. Another example is being bitter or unforgiving; both those are closely related and can defile a person (Hebrews 12:15). http://www.greatbiblestudy.com/deliverance_believers.php

If you are seeking God's best for your life, it requires a sacrifice. It's really not a sacrifice when you realize what you are being protected from! If you are tired of being treated wrong, begin by treating yourself right, turn to the Lord for His guidance, His protection and His selection for your life. No one knows better what the desires of your heart truly are than the one who formed it, who set the Heavens in motion and knew you as you were being knit together in the womb. He knows every thought, every need and can serve all of them if you only submit, believe and wait upon Him.

MONDAY MORNING MESSAGE FOR The Eternal Body Of Christ 7-16-12

Gooooood Morninnnnnnnng,

Today we are going to look at the 2nd Chapter of Hebrews in the New Testament. Here we have the accounting and witness of one of the apostles, whom lived and walked side by side with Christ. Christ's pre-eminence is established as well as his Deity, his ordained positioning and his merciful election.

Hebrews 2

King James Version (KJV)

2 Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip.
²For if the word spoken by angels was stedfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just recompence of reward;
³How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and wasconfirmed unto us by them that heard him;
⁴God also bearing them witness, both with signs and wonders, and with divers miracles, and gifts of the Holy Ghost, according to his own will?
⁵For unto the angels hath he not put in subjection the world to come, whereof we speak.
⁶But one in a certain place testified, saying, What is man, that thou art mindful of him? or the son of man that thou visitest him?
⁷Thou madest him a little lower than the angels; thou crownedst him with glory and honour, and didst set him over the works of thy hands:
⁸Thou hast put all things in subjection under his feet. For in that he put all in subjection under him, he left nothing that is not put under him. But now we see not yet all things put under him.
⁹But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man.
¹⁰For it became him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings.
¹¹For both he that sanctifieth and they who are sanctified are all of one: for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren,
¹²Saying, I will declare thy name unto my brethren, in the midst of the church will I sing praise unto thee.
¹³And again, I will put my trust in him. And again, Behold I and the children which God hath given me.
¹⁴Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil;
¹⁵And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.
¹⁶For verily he took not on him the nature of angels; but he took on him the seed of Abraham.
¹⁷Wherefore in all things it behoved him to be made like unto his brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people.
¹⁸For in that he himself hath suffered being tempted, he is able to succour them that are tempted.

There are simply techniques in parenthood or child rearing, where the care giver or the parent will come down to the child's level, in eye sight and stature, to bond with them, in an effort to gain their cooperation and to empathise with them. Is it any wonder, that God, in His infinite wisdom and mercy would seek to do the same with us and do so in a manner which is fitting and not frightening.

Jesus is every bit a man and never ceased to be God. In Verse 9 of Hebrews, Chapter 2, we see that Jesus, who was above the Angels, above all created things, elected to come to us in this humble capacity. The irony of it all, was a secret plot, so genius, so loving, that it totally escaped the perceptions and undermining of satan.

Satan thought he had won in corrupting the Human race, knowing fully Gods laws and having perverted the word beyond all correction. The human race was for all intents and purposes so riddled with sin, that no offering or sacrifice of a human nature could suffice to cover the wretchedness. From the first sin in the garden and from that bloodline down, the compounded transgressions had Satan thinking we were as good as dead. He thought that he had proved to God that we would chose him, turn from the lord and forever be unrecoverable because of the stain and shame of those sins. God knew better!

When Jesus, who set the heavens in motions and named every single star realized what we needed, He kept it His own little secret. Until one fine day, An Angel appeared to Mary and as well to Joseph, explaining that they would become parents, that God chose them to bring our Saviour into the world. Mary was a sinless woman, and Joseph was a simple but a decent man. When Jesus stepped down from His throne, he not only bent down on one knee to see us at eye level, He entered our world in the flesh as a helpless baby. He came to us by the simplest of upbringings to a family that was not high in status, influence or wealth. More importantly, when His Holy blood mixed with our human blood, it infused our DNA with redemption. He lived a sinless life full of every struggle and temptation that we have ever faced. Then when He became our sacrificial lamb, when that blood of His was shed on that cross, it INDEED was sufficient to cover the penalties of death. When Jesus arose from the dead in His glorified body, He made it possible for all of mankind to follow suit. As the Bible says, so below, same as above; as in Heaven so it is on Earth!

Jesus was more than just a good man, He was more than just someone who chose to help mankind, He was God in the flesh. He was God before He became flesh! Praise His Holy name, we know our Saviour and He LIVES!

Colossians 2:9For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form,
“I and the Father are one.” (John 10:30)
“…that you may know and understand that the Father is in Me, and I in the Father." (John 10:38)
“You call Me Teacher and Lord; and you are right, for so I am.” (John 13:13)
“…He who has seen Me has seen the Father.” (John 14:9)
Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham as born, I am.” (John 8:58)
Philippians 2:6-8
King James Version (KJV)
⁶Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
⁷But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
⁸And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
