Have it your way is not on Gods menu! 6/29/15






God is not a short order, supply chain. Everyone wants it fast and easy. In the world today, there are many who are dangerously unaware of God's nature. They are ignorant to the provocation they cause within the very one relationship that is most critical. That of the sinner (as we all are) and the much needed Savior (the Lord himself) We can never achieve the correct posture needed for a close and fulfilling relationship with the Lord, if He is treated like a "Have it your way", serve yourself, made to order, no commitment, kind of King. He requires commitment, an earnest desire, humility & the willingness to sacrifice self.

You wouldn't order TacoBell and then bring it to McDonald's, proceeding to sit down, eat and then demand extra sauce or complain about what was missing from your order, now would you?! If you dared to, you would be met with looks of disdain and probably thrown out on your ear!  Yet, in some respect, this is exactly what happens, when people take their own liberties and then complain to God why it's not right, or expect Him to immediately satisfy their conflict. First of all God doesn't take orders from us. Absurd and not appreciated, are two words that come to mind! Our precious Lord sees this ignorance and still, patiently waits for many to come to their senses, to get with the program!

Did we not see it this week, in our leaders and in the outward displays of those who should know better?! All I can say is, it is a shameful thing to in one hand invoke the name of the almighty, calling His attention down in such an elaborate way and then vehemently, provoke Him with such atrocious and deliberate disobedience. What is done in darkness, shall always be revealed by the light. We had a day where the spoken message was directed to the almighty above, but the truth of what was later displayed and endorsed, was anything but respectful of His office. We are not not to judge others in their sin, that is His job, but it is our job to stand for truth, it is wrong to graft those things into our legal systems simply because it's popular or widely practiced. Slippery, slippery slope, dope!

The first time the Rainbow ever came to be, was after the flood, over a society gone amoral. The flood was the result of Gods wrath, after many warnings which went ignored . Here we see the Devil mocking God, saying..."Look, they display Your rainbow so proudly!" it's totally a slap in the face to the Almighty. To further that mockery, this week they moved to pull down one flag that represents slavery to man and are embracing one that represents heinous Sin in Gods eyes, which is truly symbolic of slavery to Satan. God have mercy! It was done by the margin and is an atrocity and needs to be repealed.

There is a difference between discernment and discrimination, it's high time that everyone re-educate themselves on what that difference is. Again, its important to preface the problem here, isn't with the person(s) but the sin.

God is not someone to make deals with, like a bartering agent. He is not moved by menacing negotiations. He is not coerced by feeble justifications. Pray for this nation, this country, these leaders, these youths, these people, these beliefs, these infractions. God is quickly loosing patience. We have the Letter of the Law and the meaning of the Law, God is not in the business of mincing any of them. We best not either. Just because something is legal, doesn't make it right and just because everyone might believe the lie, it does not make it true.

You can not serve both God an 'Mc'-mammon, choose this day.

Lord, please have mercy on us collectively.We repent on behalf of all the wickedness we see so blatantly and foolishly celebrated and waived around like a macabre corpse attached to a stake. Have mercy upon us and them.

Proverbs 21:2 Every way of a man is right in his owne eyes: but the Lord pondereth the hearts.
2 Peter 2:6 And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an ensample unto those that after should live ungodly;
Luke 17:26-30
And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an ensample unto those that after should live ungodly;
Jude 1:5-7

5 Now I desire to remind you, though you know all things once for all, that the Lord, after saving a people out of the land of Egypt, subsequently destroyed those who did not believe. 6 And angels who did not keep their own domain, but abandoned their proper abode, He has kept in eternal bonds under darkness for the judgment of the great day. 7 Just as Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities around them, since they in the same way as these indulged in gross immorality and went after strange flesh, are exhibited as an example, in undergoing the punishment of eternal fire.
Rev 3:15-16
I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.
So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.

Eradicate Hate 6/22/15



In general, we all use the word hate so casually. It's even used as a term of dislike when speaking about the very subject of Hate. It's the word of choice for severe dislike, its even used to describe mild annoyance. It's so widely accepted but it has deeper implications, and seeks to take root in our hearts like a rogue emotion capable of great harm.

Hate has many ugly cousins, such as bigotry, indifference, insecurity, jealousy, narcissism, rage, racism. When one comes to town, they all like to get together and stir up trouble! It needs to stop. Everyone believes this is true, everyone says so, but are we ourselves guilty of the very thing that we loathe?! We need greater accountability within. We ought to be praying for our enemies and I mean really praying that they receive forgiveness, self awareness and Christ awareness. Imagine for a moment being like them, not a pleasant thought, huh?. Well, at least you can sleep at night. People who are mean and ugly have to live with themselves as well as one day face the mirror and ultimately answer to God.

Forgiveness and tolerance! It's a bitter pill. I know because I have overcome through Christ. I have had innumerable instances of it in my life. Hurt, betrayal, malice and every variation has tried to come at me. It takes work, patience and a willingness to let go. I have learned that anyone who would go to great lengths to hurt me, is truly pathetic. I have learned to see just beyond, the in your face insult, the behind your back disloyalty, the right in front of the face oversight. Somewhere along the way, I recognized that I held the power. That they pulled me into a current of ugly and I could either swim back to shore or stay there to scrap it out. The smart choice is to remove ourselves and turn it over to the Lord. After all, He knows best how to handle them and always does, somehow, someway, one day!

Retaliation is always like oxygen applied to a fire. Keep your lashes and eye brows in tact, step back and diffuse. We need to refuse those who attempt to insight us. They want a fight, they want an excuse and a reason to engage, they want a piece. We look into the eyes of someone like this youth, that committed this horrible act towards our family in Christ (in S. Carolina) and we see vacancy, we see a consciousness void of understanding, there is a depth of ignorance in his very soul. He is a casualty of his own. The world has many more, just like him. Our only defense is LOVE & the Power of Christ through prayer!

Proverbs 8:13 - The fear of the LORD [is] to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.

John 15:18 - If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before [it hated] you.

Matthew 10:22 - And ye shall be hated of all [men] for my name's sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved.

Relationship versus Religion 6/15/15


There comes a point in the life of every child of God, called the self check. When you have come so far, have been touched so deeply, changed so greatly, that you know,  beyond any doubt, Whom you belong to.

You come to a realization, as most any person would. Having known your past, your potential, your capabilities and all of the instances that those tendencies produced. The human, sees the undeserving, the spirit sees the servitude. The human sees the faults, the spirit sees the blueprint, the renovation & the completion.

My spirit has had much time, running the show. It has ruled over the flesh effectively enough for me to trust it. I have yielded to it and am quite happy with it's explicit & direct purpose over my life and interactions. It is the guiding force of my Life, the Holy Spirit that God promised and placed within me.

So many are facing a soon to come, decision time, lets hope they choose correctly. lets hope they haven't forfeited their umpteenth chance. Which side of the fence will you be on or land on when all is shaken? Relationship is the leveraging force not laws of religion. God designed relationship as the intimate space between consciousness'. Religion which man designed, constructs laws & rules to eliminate infringements. It is written that no man can come to the Father lest it through His Son, Jesus the Lord. There is no incantation, sign of the cross or meat eatin' day of the week that is powerful enough to save anyone. Only through confessing our sins, professing His name and honoring His name through submissive obedience.

The entire purpose of His plan and the work He performed was to provide what we couldn't and perpetually place us in the state of dependency. How else can anyone be a child of God unless you are one of His dependents?! In order to be saved, to be forgiven, to go to Heaven, you simply must accept this role as well as appreciate it.

Recognizing His provision, power, protection and prosperity, over all things! Relationship leads to trust, submission and ultimate peace. Religion leads to lawlessness, loopholes and lack of understanding. Religion sent Jesus to die a horrific death. Relationship sent Him to sit at the right hand of the Father, having earned full custody of all those promised to Him, as every hair on our heads is numbered (*Luke 12:7) and all that the Father has given Him, is His, (* John 6:37)

Oh yes we are blessed to know this. Can you imagine for a minute though, all those that have yet to find themselves in this enlightenment? So many wish to cling to their own constructs, it will be to their peril. Prayer is a definite weapon, as we intercede for the lost. The only other powerful force is that of our witness, the silent, the observed and the spoken. This requires that we walk in it, display it and profess it on a level that goes beyond the physical.

Relationship is the level you need to be on with the Lord Jesus Christ. Religion is what He warned of in scripture... Matthew 7:22-23 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?

And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, you that work iniquity.


I have had enough Religion to know it's empty and meaningless. Relationship with the Living Word is the only and most crucial step. In this world of contrasts, of imposter's and authenticity's the Author of all Truth is found through Relationship, not through the letter of the Law. Religion leads to ruination. Relationship leads to Renewal.




 *Luke 12:7
 But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows.

*John 6:37
37 All that the Father giveth Me shall come to Me, and him that cometh to Me I will in no wise cast out.

2Corinthians 3:6
who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament — not of the letter, but of the Spirit; for the letter killeth, but the Spirit giveth life.
