Are You Where You Want to Be Spiritually?

Are you where you want to be spiritually? We are coming to the end of this 21 Day Daniel Fast, and our purpose for this fast was to revive our spirit-being, to refresh our personal relationship with your Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, and to examine our spiritual condition so that we can make the necessary adjustments to overcome the wiles of the enemy.

Let’s review the key points that we touched upon these past twenty-one days.

Do I still love my Savior, Jesus? Or am I living the lifestyle while forsaking the most important relationship one can ever have? If I have allowed my relationship with the Lord to become dull, what am I going to do about it?

We see that difficult times are upon us, and that persecution against us is ramping up. And many fear what might happen, and others question if they have what it takes to endure persecution. Let’s examine our hearts and ask ourselves the hard question, “Can I endure these difficult times?”  Are we willing to strengthen our faith while others hate us, and even attempt to do us harm?

We looked at our place of worship. We were encouraged to ask ourselves, “Is my place of worship in right standing with Jesus?” “Does my place of worship lift up Jesus as the true God? Do they encourage the people to be born-again? Do they teach the Word of God? Or do they promote tolerance of evil? Have they become more concerned about being politically correct, than teaching people to be free from their sin?” If your place of worship does not teach the truth, “What did you do about it?”

We discussed the dangers of putting up with a Jezebel spirit and were encouraged to ask ourselves the following questions. “Am I struggling to repent from ungodliness?” “Do I tolerate and permit the controlling Jezebel spirit to have its way within my home, church, or office?” If I have done so in the past, “What am I going to do about it today?”

Do our thoughts, words, and daily actions line up with God’s requirements for eternal life in heaven? Do we believe in our hearts, and confess with our words, “I believe, Jesus is Lord.”?

We looked at how God judges good works and were encouraged to examine our motives. “Why am I doing what I do?” And “Who receives the glory for what I do?”

We gave thought to our spiritual temperature. And were asked to admit if we were spiritually lukewarm, cold or hot? And if we did not like our temperature, were we willing to adjust the thermostat?

We were encouraged to listen to the words we speak, as they have the prophetic power to release life or death into the situation. I would think that most of us would be a bit convicted on this point, but did we make the adjustments necessary to transform our lives? Did we take time to repent for the misuse of our words? Did we make a conscious decision to listen to what we say, before we speak? Have we asked Holy Spirit for His help to learn to speak His language of faith and prophesy death to the works of satan, and the life of God into our needs?

When it comes to the power of truth, do we seek real truth, Jesus and His Holy Word? Or have we decided to stay stuck in the lies given to us from this world? To walk in the power of truth is a decision, but this decision sets us free.

We looked at the need for us to hit the “Reset” button of our faith, to start over, speak words of faith over ourselves, and activate our faith.

We were refreshed with a prophetic word from the Lord, “Dead bones must rise again!” And received His word of encouragement to “Shake off the sleep and the slumber. Press toward the mark of our high calling. Unleash the resurrection power of My Spirit within you. No longer be timid and shy. You have entered into a time when there is no turning back for My Beloved–My Church.”

All in all, this has been a blessed time during this 21-day Daniel Fast. Our purpose of this time of spiritual reflection is not to judge others, but our own hearts. As our purpose is to revive our spirit-being, to refresh our personal relationship with your Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, and to examine our spiritual condition so that we can make the necessary adjustments to overcome the wiles of the enemy. And this is not the easiest thing to do, but it is necessary to be where we want to be spiritually. And I believe it has accomplished much to identify where we are spiritually. And if we do not like where we are in certain areas, we have the tools to make the necessary changes to move forward during this turbulent year, and in these last days.

Dead Bones Must Rise Again Prophetic Word

The Spirit of the Living God would say to you this day,

Dead bones must rise again! Shake off the sleep and the slumber. Press toward the mark of our high calling. Unleash the resurrection power of My Spirit within you. No longer be timid and shy. You have entered into a time when there is no turning back for My Beloved–My Church.

I have empowered you for this time, this day, and for this moment. No longer will you remain silent as the world passes away. I have given you a voice; it is time to lift it up and use it for My glory.

Reject the lukewarm waters that are trying to consume you. Refresh yourself with the coolness of My Spirit. And as you quickly refresh, for the time is ever so short, allow the Living Water within you to heat up until it boils over to all those around you. You have no time to lap in the vomit of passiveness.

That same Spirit that raised Me, the Living Christ, from the dead lives within you and is warming up the dead bones–and as you surrender to this life-giving power of Mine, those dead bones will come back to life again.

I am the One whom you want to reach out and touch. And as you do–I will be there to meet you with all power in this last hour. It is time for My people who are called by My name to rise up in the power of My might.

And what is my name? I Am the Great I Am. I Am the Messiah–the One True Savior of this world. I bled and died for you, because of My great passion for you. You are created in My image, and I am passionate about My Father. And I am passionate for My Beloved Bride–the Church. And you are created to be passionate about Me and My Father.

Although the attacks are strong, My Spirit within you is even stronger. Rise up! Leave that fear behind you. Take courage in knowing that you do not fight this battle alone, for I fight for you. This battle belongs to Me, and you are My mighty warrior destined to conquer, not be conquered.

I call forth the dead bones within the Body to rise up with My power as your strength. I call forth a refreshing to the new person within you. I command you to forsake the past, no longer look back with longing for what once was, but stand for hope of My soon return.

Be not afraid in these last days but be strong and courageous. Know that your faith is your shield. And My Word is your sword. The end is predetermined–and you are created to win.

All creation is ready, and the heavens and the earth are beckoning Me to raise up the Church in this great hour. I have created you to release My power among the lost inhabitants of this earth. For it is passing away, and it must for My new Heaven and the new earth to manifest. Release the kingdom of God on this earth. it’s time; position yourself with My Spirit.

All hell is about to break out. You think, “It’s time to run and hide.” And I say, “No! it’s not time to run and hide–it’s time for My Beloved Bride–My Church to allow My resurrection power of life to cause those dead bones to arise.”

Surrender your spirit, soul, and body onto Me–allow Me to fight through you.”

Thus says the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End.

*This excerpt is a prophetic word taken from, The Waves of Healing Glory, Chapter 11, The Church is Breaking Out!”, Pages 251-253.

Hit the “Reset” Button of Your Faith

Today is day 16 of this 21 Day Daniel Fast, and I know that many of you are believing, or learning to believe for a manifestation of your supernatural healing from Jesus. I feel led of the Spirit to share with you a real live situation that I received earlier today on my prayer request page. And I am sharing it with you because many of you are going through similar situations. And I want to help you heal, and I believe it is time for some of you to hit the “Reset” button of your faith.

A woman writes, “My test results from CT SCAN shows that I still have cancer, and nothing has changed. My heart and soul are glad that nothing is spreading, as we can see. I am really wanting this cancer to leave my body. I have cried till I just can’t see anymore. I am scared and worried. It is really hard to wake up thinking the cancer will not go away.”

This sister-in-the-Lord is sharing from her heart and reaching out for prayer support. Part of my calling as a healing evangelist is to teach people how to believe, and what it means to believe. In other words, what do we do and say as we stand in faith for a much-needed miracle? And along these same teaching lines, “What are we saying and doing that are hindering our healings from manifesting in our physical bodies?

Here is my response to our sister-in-Christ.

“As I read this request, I sense the need to teach you a little about the power of your words. Proverbs 18:21 clearly states that, “Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit.” Every word you utter is prophesying either life or death. You say, “The cancer will not go away.” Is this what you want? I don’t think so. You need to get radical in your speech and actions.

Let’s talk about, “Crying”. Yes, it is a stress reliever. But when it comes to matters of faith, it will not cause a shift in the supernatural atmosphere to cause a healing to manifest. Only faith can do this. And faith in the redemptive power of the blood of Jesus is what you need to stand on right now, and not the negative medical report.

I highly suggest that you spend some time today in prayer, and hit the “Reset” button, and start all-over, and this time do not allow the power of the negative report to control you, but use it to motivate you to press forward, and do not stop until that healing manifests.

I honestly am not trying to sound harsh but am trying to help you to heal.”

Perhaps, you are in a similar situation today, and you need to hit the “Reset” button of your faith, start over, and this time do not allow your five senses, human reasoning, medical reports and results to dictate your faith, but instead, allow them to catapult you out of the earthly realm and into the supernatural realm of the power of the redemptive blood of Jesus.

Do not allow the spirit of fear to drive you into worry and depression but snuff out that fear with words and actions of faith. Let’s pray.

“Dear Father God, 

I did not realize that I have been using the power of my words to harm my health, or present situation. I am sorry, that I aligned myself with the spirit of fear, and allowed its hellish powers to be used against me. I repent for all doubt and unbelief. I thank You, that You do understand that this battle is tough, but it is not more powerful than You. I thank You, that You do not change, but You remain strong through every storm that rises up against us. And I am drawing on Your strength, Your power, and Your might to see me through this battle. And I am grateful that when I feel weak, You remain strong, You never waiver, You never fall. If I cry out, I cry out from a heart of repentance, “Father, I believe, help my unbelief.” Holy Spirit, I ask for Your courage when I feel afraid. I ask for Your comfort when I feel sad. And I choose the supernatural power of joy today, and I allow this inward strength of Your’s to fill me and to sustain me this day. I choose to hit the “Reset” button of my faith and trust in You today. In Your mighty name, I pray, amen.”

The Power of Truth

Truth is a supernatural power that sets people free. And yet, so many of God’s people choose to live under the bondage of lies. Let’s discuss the power of truth, how to find real truth, how to be set free from bondage, and how to keep the power of truth activated in our lives.

Where does truth come from? We find the answer to this question in John 1:17, “For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.” The power of truth comes to us from our Lord, Himself. And why does this truth come to us through our Lord? The answer is simple, and it is found in Numbers 23:19, “God is not human, that he should lie, not a human being, that he should change his mind. Does he speak and then not act? Does he promise and not fulfill?” You might be asking yourself, “When did He fulfill His promise to me?” Isaiah 53:4-5 reveal to us when He made a blood covenant with us. It says, Surely He has borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows; Yet we esteemed Him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted. But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement for our peace was upon Him, and by His stripes we are healed.” And before He gave up His Spirit on this earth to the Father, He shared this all-powerful truth, “It is finished!”, (John 19:30). 

I don’t know about you, but I personally take great comfort in this truth about our Lord, “He never lies”. In today’s world finding someone that is truthful is a challenge. But not with our Lord, “He always speaks the truth”. I also find security that He never changes, “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever”, (Hebrews 13:8). Though chaos is breaking forth all around us we can hold onto the security and stability of our precious Savior, Jesus Christ.

If you are seeking truth, seek Jesus. Or you will live a life full of disappointment. The only place to discover real truth, is at the feet of Yeshua. His Word says about Him, “I am the [only] Way [to God] and the [real] Truth and the [real] Life; no one comes to the Father but through Me”, John 14:6, AMP.

Whatever is going on in your life today, Jesus has the answer. If you are lost, He will show you the way, (John 14:6). Is your body is sick? He is the Lord who heals you, (Exodus 15:26). Are you in trouble and need deliverance? The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears, and delivers them out of all their troubles”, Psalm 34:17. Do you need provision? Philippians 4:19 encourages us with these powerful and truthful words, “And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.” And no matter how hopeless the situation may appear, He boldly declares these unlimited words filled with promise to us, “If you have faith as a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you”, Matthew 17:20.

How do we not only walk in these promises but live them on a daily basis? John 8:31-32 instructs us how to live a lifestyle of truth. Jesus says, “If you continue in My word, you are truly My disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” Now you take the power of truth and ponder upon them and activate them in your life.

What’s Your Spiritual Temperature?

What’s your spiritual temperature? We all have one. Will we choose this day to be spiritually lukewarm, cold or hot? What say you?

Today is the twelfth day of our 21 Day Daniel Fast. The purpose of this fast is to revive our spirit-being, to refresh our personal relationship with your Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, and to examine our spiritual condition so that we can make the necessary adjustments to overcome the wiles of the enemy in these last days. Today, we are going to continue on in our study from the Book of Revelation where Jesus addresses the seven Churches. And so, let’s turn our attention over to chapter 3, verses 14 through 22, and discover what’s our spiritual temperature.

14 “And to the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write,

‘These things says the Amen, the Faithful and True Witness, the Beginning of the creation of God: 15 “I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I could wish you were cold or hot. 16 So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth. 17 Because you say, ‘I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing’—and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked— 18 I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire, that you may be rich; and white garments, that you may be clothed, that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see. 19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore be zealous and repent. 20 Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me. 21 To him who overcomes I will grant to sit with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne.

22 “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”

We read in this portion of Scripture that our Lord is rebuking the church of the Laodiceans for their spiritual temperature–lukewarmness. And this text is very applicable for us today. Let’s read and make note of what He considers someone that is lukewarm. 

The Characteristics of a Lukewarm Christian:

  1. Spiritually speaking they are, “Neither hot nor cold” towards the Lord and His ways.
  2. They say about themselves, ‘I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing”.   

This assignment is not to judge others, but our own hearts. As we read in these verses that the Lord rebukes and chastens the people He loves. And how does He respond to the pride of these followers? Basically, He lets them know that they are spiritually blind to the reality of eternal matters. They have become uncaring, self-centered, and self-seeking. And He calls them out and reprimands them with these words, You do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked.” Ouch! That’s a strong rebuke to Christian folk that think they’ve got it all together in this life. If this is your spiritual temperature, then repent and allow Holy Spirit to guide your life so it can be removed from the vomit list to the list of the passionate. Remember, “With God all things are possible.”

This takes us to the other spiritual temperatures, cold and hot for the Lord. He tells us, I wish you were cold or hot.” Obviously, we do not want to be spiritually cold towards the Lord. If we are it’s because something has happened that we have not dealt with and have become the “Frozen Chosen”, probably angry and bitter about life, and we blame Him. But even though this is an undesirable spiritual temperature, He still prefers this over being lukewarm. Perhaps, it’s because we still have feelings, even though they are negative and harmful, whereas when we are lukewarm, we no longer care about God and life around us.

What He really desires is that His bride is passionate, spiritually on fire for Him, and all that matters to Him. He deeply desires intimate relationship with us, and that we are in right standing with the Father, empowered by His Spirit, healed in spirit, soul, and body. He longs for us to care about what He cares about–the lost and the hurting.  It gives Him no pleasure that we are sick or hurting. He wills that we prosper in spirit, soul, and body. He does not desire for us to be in bondage to sin, but to walk in the freedom that comes from Him alone. Our Lord gives us every reason to be passionate, spiritually on fire for Him.

So, you see, we have another decision to make. Will we choose this day to be spiritually lukewarm, cold or hot? What say you? Let’s pray.

Dear Holy Spirit,

Again, You have given me something to consider, “What’s my spiritual temperature?”. Forgive me for being lukewarm and uncaring towards You. This is not how I want to be. And forgive me for acting cold towards You. Help me to deal with the issues in life that have brought me to this frozen spiritual place. Holy Spirit, help me to unthaw and to become passionate, spiritually on fire for You. This is what I truly desire, to be spiritually hot, that my relationship with You burns with passion for You and the things You care about. And thank You for revealing my spiritual temperature today and showing me the way to change. In Your precious name I pray, amen.

Steps to Take to Voice Activate Your Faith

A word of encouragement for you today to help you with steps to take to voice activate your faith.

God’s Word in Proverbs 18:21 teaches us that, “Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit.” In other words, your words are full of supernatural power to produce life or death. In fact, you are releasing life or death into every situation by the power of your everyday words. When we allow ourselves to mediate upon this biblical fact about the power of our words it causes us to realize that we have been given a major responsibility and we need to take the use of our words serious. 

If you are a person of many words, who blurts out their thoughts instead of taking time to consider what we should or should not say then this is my spiritual advice to you. “Stop! Your words are recking havoc not only in your life, but in the lives of those around you.” Ouch! That kind of hurts, but your constant flow of words is causing a lot of damage, and with the help of the Lord, you can stop this out-of-control behavior. Here are a few steps for you to take to bring your usage of words under submission to the Lord.

  1. Repent for the mismanagement of your words.
  2. Surrender your mouth and the use of your words to the Lord Jesus, Himself.
  3. Begin to listen to what you speak, and ask yourself, “Do I really want what I just said to come to pass?”
  4. And remember, with God all things are possible, even surrendering my usage of words to God.

Then we have the opposite type of person who is afraid to speak. This too is a misuse of the power of your words. God has given to you a great gift–the power of the spoken word. He created people, including you in His mirror image, (See Genesis 1:26-28.), and expects each of us to represent Him well. A well-rounded ambassador knows understands just how important their words are, and so should we, who are called by His name, and proclaim to be followers of Jesus Christ. The enemy, satan desires for you to live in fear, and be afraid to speak up and let your voice be heard. Don’t give into the devil’s tactics against you. I’ve included a list of steps for you to put into action, beginning now.

  1. Repent for allowing yourself to be controlled by a spirit of fear.
  2. Make a quality decision to voice activate the power of your words today.
  3. Empower yourself to overcome the fear of people, and their possible disapproval of your thoughts and opinions.
  4. If someone starts to speak the negative around you, or about you, speak up! And say, “Excuse me, but I disagree with what you say.” And share from your heart what you believe to be God’s response to the situation.
  5. And voice activate this Scripture over yourself daily. “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me”, Philippians 4:13.

We’ve talked about two types of people here, the over-talker, and the one that is afraid to speak up. But what about everyone else that falls somewhere in between? We all need to be aware of the power of our words. Each one of us can fall into the mismanagement of the usage of our words, and we don’t want this. But I also want to say, we can all learn how to use our words for the glory of the Lord. Here is a list for all of us to consider and put into action.

  1. Listen to the words that we speak.
  2. Ask ourselves, “Do I really desire what I just said to come to pass?”
  3. Apologize when we realize we said something we should not have said to someone.
  4. Repent for saying words that go against the well-being of our own physical body, or our present situation.
  5. And ask Holy Spirit how to reword those misused words and say aloud what He tells you to speak.
  6. And remember, “With God all things are possible”, see Matthew 19:26. Even learning to correctly voice activate the power of our words is possible.

The Blessings of Faithfulness

Today we are going to consider the blessings of faithfulness by looking at the church in Philadelphia from Revelation 3: 7-13. Let’s begin by reading this portion of Scripture from the New King James Version of the Bible.

7 “And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write,

‘These things says He who is holy, He who is true, “He who has the key of David, He who opens and no one shuts, and shuts and no one opens”: “I know your works. See, I have set before you an open door, and no one can shut it; for you have a little strength, have kept My word, and have not denied My name. Indeed I will make those of the synagogue of Satan, who say they are Jews and are not, but lie—indeed I will make them come and worship before your feet, and to know that I have loved you. 10 Because you have kept My command to persevere, I also will keep you from the hour of trial which shall come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth. 11 Behold, I am coming quickly! Hold fast what you have, that no one may take your crown. 12 He who overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the temple of My God, and he shall go out no more. I will write on him the name of My God and the name of the city of My God, the New Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven from My God. And I will write on him My new name.

13 “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”’

In verse eight He says, “I know your works.” Now according to the Scriptures, we realize that we do not earn our Salvation by our good works, but that we are created to do good works. Ephesians 2:8-10 says, For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.”

Good works is also a matter of the heart, and the manner in which we do them reveals our intentions. Matthew 5:16 tells us, Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.” We can perform good works for God’s glory or for our own. And obviously the one that does them for God’s glory works them from a faithful heart to the Lord. The motive of the other is self-seeking, and people-pleasing, and misses the mark entirely. We are to glorify our Father in heaven by our good works. 

The questions we should examine ourselves with here are, “Why am I doing what I do?” And “Who receives the glory for what I do?”

Because the church in Philadelphia passes the test of good works, they are found to be faithful, and receive a special promise, “I have set before you an open door, and no one can shut it.” The seed of faithfulness harvests an open door to Heaven. And we want this door wide open with no hinderances between us and Father God. We need His approval for what we do on this earth. And faith is the only thing that pleases Him. “But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him”, Hebrews 11:6.  May we be diligent in our faith walk to please Him, and to honor Him in all that we do.

What are a few things that stood out to our Lord about these followers of His?

He notes, “for you have a little strength”. You may think that you are weak, but the good news is that even when we feel weak, He remains strong in us. And He never intends for us to do this all on our own, but to rely upon His strength and power. He gives us these encouraging words in Zechariah 4:6, ‘Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,’ says the Lord of hosts.” He gives to us all that we have need of during difficult times, His Spirit. 

He also acknowledges that they, “Have kept My word.” Psalm 119:105 guides us with these words, “Your word is a lamp to my feet
And a light to my path.” His Word is our guiding light in the darkness of this earth. It’s our spiritual map to live life by. 

And one last characteristic in verse eight that I want to address that Jesus uses to judge them faithful is that they, “and have not denied My name.” We are living in turbulent times, and we are seeing the faithless denying His name. And unfortunately, we are going to witness this more and more, but even though many fall away, does not mean we have to. We have a choice to make, either we acknowledge or deny the name of our Lord. Let us make the right choice and acknowledge Him in all of our ways. Proverbs 3:5-6, Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.” And one final verse from Matthew 24:13, (AMP), “But the one who endures and bears up [under suffering] to the end will be saved.”

You see, there are major spiritual blessings to being faithful to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

 

Let us pray.

“Father God, we choose to put our complete trust in You, and to acknowledge You in all our ways. We make the quality decision to serve you, and not ourselves, and to glorify You with our good works that You created us to do. Help us during times of weakness, remind us that You have given to us all we need during turbulent times–Your Spirit. Holy Spirit, You are a rich and wonderous gift to us, and You remain strong within us always. Help us to remain faithful and true to You, Father God, Jesus, our Redeemer, and Holy Spirit, our Comforter. In Jesus’ precious name we pray, amen.”

Religious and Spiritually Dead

It’s sad to me that people can believe that they are followers of Jesus, and yet be spiritually dead. Our Lord addresses this very issue in the Book of Revelation 3:1-6, (AMP). He says, “To the angel (divine messenger) of the church in Sardis write:

“These are the words of Him who has the seven Spirits of God and the seven stars: ‘I know your deeds; you have a name (reputation) that you are alive, but [in reality] you are dead. Wake up, and strengthen and reaffirm what remains [of your faithful commitment to Me], which is about to die; for I have not found [any of] your deeds completed in the sight of My God or meeting His requirements. So remember and take to heart the lessons you have received and heard. Keep and obey them, and repent [change your sinful way of thinking, and demonstrate your repentance with new behavior that proves a conscious decision to turn away from sin]. So then, if you do not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know at what hour I will come to you. But you [still] have a few people in Sardis who have not soiled their clothes [that is, contaminated their character and personal integrity with sin]; and they will walk with Me [dressed] in white, because they are worthy (righteous). He who overcomes [the world through believing that Jesus is the Son of God] will accordingly be dressed in white clothing; and I will never blot out his name from the Book of Life, and I will confess and openly acknowledge his name before My Father and before His angels [saying that he is one of Mine]. He who has an ear, let him hear and heed what the Spirit says to the churches.’

In verse one He says to them that they call themselves believers, but they’re not. He knows their deeds, He sees what they are up too, and quite frankly their actions do not line up to a true believer in Jesus. And He gives them a warning and tells them that they need to repent.

So many people think they are Christians and will spend their eternity in heaven, but they are deceived. They have not met God’s requirements. And just what does He require of us? Romans 10:9 clearly tells us, “”If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.” You can repeat godly sayings, even Scriptures all you want, but if you do not believe in your heart, it’s all in vain. And how do you know if you truly believe in your heart? Your actions will show you whether you believe or not.  James 2:26 says it like this, “For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.” You can gather together with other Church folk on Sundays and holidays and take part in the religious activities, but outside of that atmosphere you live for yourself, for your own sinful desires. And it’s these ungodly actions that prove you don’t really believe. If you really did, you wouldn’t behave the way you do. You say, “But I do believe!” Congratulations! James 2:19 says it like this, “You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe—and tremble!” 

What I want you to see is this, “Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved,” Acts 4:12. Jesus says in John 3:3, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” And how do we do this? We believe in our hearts, and confess with our words, “I believe, Jesus is Lord.” And your thoughts, your words, and your daily actions will begin to transform. And those around you will witness the change in your life. 

Let us not spend our lives acting religious, when in reality we are spiritually dead. Let’s be real with ourselves, and with God. Let’s pray.

“Father God, I have really missed it. I have been acting all religious, but inwardly I see that I have been spiritually dead. I don’t want to be like the demons, who believe, but are filled with evil. No, I repent of all ungodliness in my life. Forgive me, I have been so wrong. I have been self-centered, self-seeking, and oh, so lost. But today, is a new day. And I do believe in my heart that You are who You say You are. You are the One and only way to Salvation. I not only ask You to forgive me of all evil thoughts, words, and sinful actions, but I surrender my life to You. I ask You to be my Savior. And I ask You, Holy Spirit to teach me how to live like I truly believe, in Jesus’ name I pray, amen.”

In Need of Forgiveness for Tolerating Jezebel & Sin

Let us go to the Scriptures as we continue to examine our hearts during these 21 days of this Daniel fast to revive our spirit-being, refresh our personal relationship with the Lord, and examine our spiritual condition and make any necessary changes to overcome the attacks of the devil. Shall we begin?

In the Book of Revelation 2:18-29, (NASB). 18 “And to the angel of the church in Thyatira write:

The Son of God, who has eyes like a flame of fire, and feet like burnished bronze, says this:

19 ‘I know your deeds, and your love and faith, and service and perseverance, and that your deeds of late are greater than at first. 20 But I have this against you, that you tolerate the woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess, and she teaches and leads My bond-servants astray so that they commit sexual immorality and eat things sacrificed to idols. 21 I gave her time to repent, and she does not want to repent of her sexual immorality. 22 Behold, I will throw her on a bed of sickness, and those who commit adultery with her into great tribulation, unless they repent of her deeds. 23 And I will kill her children with plague, and all the churches will know that I am He who searches the minds and hearts; and I will give to each one of you according to your deeds. 24 But I say to you, the rest who are in Thyatira, who do not hold this teaching, who have not known the deep things of Satan, as they call them—I place no other burden on you. 25 Nevertheless what you have, hold firmly until I come. 26 The one who overcomes, and the one who keeps My deeds until the end, I will give him authority over the nations; 27 and he shall rule them with a rod of ironas the vessels of the potter are shattered, as I also have received authority from My Father; 28 and I will give him the morning star. 29 The one who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.’

This is the fourth Church addressed in this portion of Scripture. What we see concerning the church in Thyatira is that she is the portion of God’s people who refuse to repent of their worldly ways. And they are so deceived that they even allow a spirit of Jezebel to lead them. And because they tolerate Jezebel in their midst, they suffer with sickness, great tribulations (difficulties), and even their children are affected with pestilence.

As a healing minister, I have never seen God’s people as sick as I do now. I believe this is a direct consequence of allowing the evil of Jezebel to reign within the body of Christ.

So, this leads us to today’s examination questions, “Am I struggling to repent from ungodliness?” “Do I tolerate and permit the Jezebel spirit to have its way within my home, Church, or office?” If I have done so in the past, “What am I going to do about it today?”

Let’s pray.

“Father God, I pray this simple, but heart-felt prayer of repentance. I ask for Your forgiveness for being stiff-necked towards Your Holy Spirit wooing me to repent of my willful sins. And I also ask You to forgive me for being passive, and not speaking up against the evils of society that have crept into my Church, home, and/or business. I desire to please you, to take a stand for righteousness, and to do what’s right in Your sight. Holy Spirit, help me to untangle myself from this sticky web of Jezebel that’s all around me. I desire to be free, and I desire my family to be free as well. Forgive me, because I put up with the wickedness of Jezebel, and did not understand how destructive it was to me and my family. I thank You for Your forgiveness, and I put my trust in You to lead in the way of Everlasting. In Your most holy name, I pray, amen.”

Is My Place of Worship in Right Standing with Jesus?

We are examining our hearts and locating where we are spiritually by looking at the seven churches that Jesus addresses in the Book of Revelation. We talked about the Church of Ephesus, and how they fell out of love with Jesus, and asked ourselves the hard question, “Do I still love Jesus like I once did before?” Then we read about the Church of Smyrna, who are persecuted for their faith in our Lord. And we questioned ourselves, “Do I have the level of faithfulness it takes to endure persecution?” These are tough questions, but we want to revive our spirit-being, to refresh our personal relationship with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, and to examine our spiritual condition so that we can make the necessary adjustments to overcome the wiles of the enemy.

Today, we are going to look at the next Church addressed in Revelation 2:13-17. “‘I “know where you dwell, where Satan’s throne is; and you hold firmly to My name, and did not deny My faith even in the days of Antipas, My witness, My faithful one, who was killed among you, where Satan dwells.  But I have a few things against you, because you have some there who hold the teaching of Balaam, who kept teaching Balak to put a stumbling block before the sons of Israel, to eat things sacrificed to idols and to commit sexual immorality. So you too, have some who in the same way hold to the teaching of the Nicolaitans. Therefore repent; or else I am coming to you quickly, and I will wage war against them with the sword of My mouth. The one who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To the one who overcomes, I will give some of the hidden manna, and I will give him a white stone, and a new name written on the stone which no one knows except the one who receives it.’”

The Church here in Pergamum are not part of the true Church. Infact, Jesus says their dwelling is with satan. They are a cult. Their sins are idol worship, false gods, false teachings, and acts of immorality. They are spiritually lost and receive the warning to repent, or He will make war against them. These are very strong words to hear God speak forth. But there are so called Churches, that are so full of the devil, and personal relationship, and teaching their people to walk in holiness is so far from their goals. They are enemies of God, not to be trusted, not to be attended, and they are to be called out for the deceptiveness. 

Here’s a few questions you should ask yourself, “Does my place of worship lift up Jesus as the true God? Do they encourage the people to be born-again? Do they teach the Word of God? Or do they promote tolerance of evil? Have they become more concerned about being politically correct, than teaching people to be free from their sin?” The final question to ask yourself right now, “Is my place of worship in right standing with Jesus?” If your place of worship does not teach the truth, then you need to find a new place of worship.

Let’s pray.

“Father God, I don’t like it, but my place of worship is not a true place of worship. You and the plan of redemption are not the foundation. They are changing their views and are lining themselves up with the sins of this world. I repent for being a part of this madness. Forgive me, for not taking a stand, and looking for a new place of worship. Holy Spirit, lead me to a new Church where you really are the center, where I can grow in the power of the Word. In Jesus’ name, amen and amen.”
