TURNING OVER A NEW LEAF

THE IMAGE OF GOD IN YOU

A lot of the time we decide, I am going to turn over a new leaf in my life… Make some changes

You get geared up, excited, ready to shake those habits that have been haunting you. You want to step into Gods best. Then to often something happens.

Your determination weakens, your new leaf begins to look similar to your old leaf, then suddenly your back where you started.

Nothing has changed, and you start to doubt if it ever will change.

This has happened to all of us, more times than we would like to admit. But it doesn’t have to happen again.

God has given us the power to make permanent changes in our lives and in our circumstances.

But first you need to understand an important principal. It is the principal of inner image.

Read Eph 5:1-2... When God created the earth, he took the principal of His inner image, added faith and the power of His words.

If we are going to imitate our Heavenly father, we must put the principal of His inner image to work.

Don’t waste your time trying to dream up a inner image all on your own. That is nothing more than positive thinking.

What you need is to use as a basis for your inner image and for the words you speak is the word of God. The word has supernatural power.

And if you fill that word with faith and you speak it out, it will work to change your circumstances as surely as it did for God himself. (He himself spoke things into existence.

When God wanted light, he said, “let there be light”. the words he spoke were directly related to his inner image. He used his words to get that image from the inside to the outside.

Words are powerful, they are containers that carry faith, and love. Words can also carry fear and hate…Words are so important that they can determine our eternal destiny.

Read Roman 10:9-10

Read Proverb 18:21

Power of life and death are in the power of the tongue.

And we are the ones who will choose which of those ( life or death) we will speak into existence.

The power we have to speak words… no other creature on earth has that power. Words can destroy or they can create.

They take an inner image and project it to the outside world. Once you understand that you can put the inner image to work in your life…

You may be working to be a winner, while seeing your self as a loser. How do you change that? With the word of God.

Words not only release the creative forces of faith, they also produce images… when you hear the word cat, your mind forms a picture. Words paint pictures in our minds.

I am talking about getting your image lined up with the word of God.

Read John 1:1-4... All things were made by the word…

Read Heb 11:3... By faith we understand that the entire universe was formed at Gods command. That what we see now, did not come from anything that can be seen.

Everything that is, or has been, or ever will be, was brought about, either directly or indirectly by the word of God. Words are packed with faith.

In fact that faith is the energy that is in the word that gives it the power to bring itself to pass.

Read Isa 55:11... Gods word is a living thing, it is alive with Gods own faith…By the power of the Holy Spirit, you have faith inside of you as a born again believer.

So when your inner image matches Gods word then your faith can produce the end result that God desires for it to produce.

But you must realize that when you put these principals to work in your life, you are going to run into some heavy resistance from Satan.

He is going to do everything he can to stop you because as a co-worker with God, you become satans greatest enemy.

A BABY IS BORN

A BABY IS BORN
THE BABY I AM SPEAKING OF WAS AND IS NOT AN ORDINARY CHILD

THIS IS THE ONE GOD SENT TO SAVE AND OVERCOME THE EVIL OF THE WORLD

JOHN 3:16 SAYS, FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD THAT HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE.

ISAIAH 9:6... 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…

THIS SON IS NONE OTHER THAN THE LORD JESUS, THE CHRIST CHILD

JOHN 10:10 SAYS… HE CAME THAT WE MAY HAVE LIFE, AND HAVE IT MORE ABUNDANTLY… NOTHING MISSING… NOTHING BROKEN

CHRIST IN YOU, IS THE HOPE OF GLORY

JESUS CAME NOT TO CONDEM THE WORLD, BUT TO SAVE US… WE NEEDED A SAVIOR TWO THOUSAND YEARS AGO, AND WE STILL NEED THIS SAME SAVIOR TODAY.

THIS SAME BABY BOY THAT WAS BORN TO JOSEPH AND MARY WAS THE SAME SPIRITUAL PERSON THAT SAVES US… JUSTIFIES …SANCTIFIES.. AND AT THE CROSS GAVE HIS LIFE FOR OUR LIFE.

John 1:1... In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

John 1: 14...And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

SO WE COULD LIVE OUR LIFE IN HIM AND BECOME HEIRS TO HIS KINGDOM…

THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS THE GOVERNING PART OF GOD’S PLAN AND PURPOSE FOR OUR LIVES

GOD HAS A PURPOSE FOR EVERYONE HERE

THE BORN AGAIN BELIEVERS ARE BROTHERS AND SISTERS IN CHRIST… WE ARE THE SPIRITUAL BODY THAT LOVES THE THINGS OF GOD AND HIS PEOPLE

IF YOU ARE A BELIEVER THE LAST THOUGHT AT NIGHT SHOULD BE ON THIS ANOINTED CHILD CALLED JESUS…

WHEN YOU WAKE UP EACH MORNING IT SHOULD BE YOUR FIRST THOUGHT

YES IT WAS NECESSARY FOR JESUS TO COME FROM HIS HOME TO OUR HOME

THERE WAS A CURSE PUT ON EARTH THROUGH THE DISOBEDIENCE OF ADAM AND EVE

WE WERE SEPARATED FROM GOD, JESUS CAME AND WE REGAINED OUR CROWN OF GLORY, SO NOW WE NEED NEVER BE SEPARATED FROM GOD AGAIN…

IT COST HIM HIS LIFE AND HIS SHED BLOOD, HIS STRIPE FOR OUR HEALING AND SUFFERING IN THE BOWELS OF HELL

IT WAS ALL DONE IN LOVE

SO AS YOU ARE PUTTING UP YOUR CHRISTMAS TREES AND WRAPPING YOUR PRESENTS,

REMEMBER THE CHRIST CHILD AND JESUS’ SACRIFICE FOR YOU AND HIS LOVE FOR YOU. HE IS THE REASON FOR THE SEASON…

THANK YOU GOD FOR THIS BABY CALLED JESUS…

TRUSTING GOD

TRUSTING GOD

READ PS 34:8... OH TASTE AND SEE THAT THE LORD IS GOOD, BLESSED IS THE MAN THAT TRUSTETH IN HIM.

LATELY I’VE HEARD SO MANY PEOPLE SAYING TO ME… YOU KNOW, I GO TO CHURCH, I PAY MY TITHES, I TRY TO LIVE AS RIGHT AS I KNOW…BUT THINGS ARE NOT WORKING FOR ME…

WHEN PEOPLE TELL ME THIS, USUALLY I HAVE AN ANSWER THAT IS SOMETHING LIKE THIS…

THE PROBLEM WITH PEOPLE TODAY, EVEN CHRISTIANS, IS THEY MIGHT BE LIVING AS RIGHT AS THEY KNOW, BUT IT IS WHAT THEY DON’T KNOW THAT IS CAUSING THINGS TO GO WRONG IN THERE LIVES.

INSTEAD OF READING THE WORD, MEDITATING ON THE WORD, AND TRUSTING GOD, THEY ARE TRUSTING IN WHAT THEY CAN DO, AND NOT WHAT THE WORD SAYS GOD CAN DO AND WILL DO…

YOU CAN HAVE ALL THE HOPE, FAITH AND LOVE, BUT IF YOU DON’T TRUST GOD FOR SPIRITUAL DIRECTION YOU WON’T REAP THE FULL BENEFIT OF GODS BLESSINGS.

WE MUST TRUST GOD AND HIS WORD, HOW IS IT THAT WE TRUST GOD FOR OUR SALVATION BUT DON’T TRUST HIM FOR ALL OUR NEEDS… LIKE HEALING AND PROSPERITY…

EITHER GOD CAN DO ALL HIS WORD SAYS HE CAN AND WILL, OR THEY ARE READING A DIFFERENT BIBLE THAN I AM…

READ JEREMIAH 17: 7 BLESSED IS THE MAN THAT TRUSTETH IN THE LORD, AND WHOSE HOPE THE LORD IS…

IF YOU WILL PUT YOUR TRUST IN THE LORD YOU WILL FIND CONFIDENCE IN THE LORD

WE AS THE CHURCH NEED TO START MAKING IT A POINT TO TRUST AND REALIZE THAT GOD LOVES US AND WOULD NEVER LEAD US IN A WRONG DIRECTION.

READ 3RD JOHN 2... BELOVED I WISH ABOVE ALL THINGS THAT THOU MAYEST PROSPER AND BE IN HEALTH EVEN AS THY SOUL PROSPERETH…

PROSPER IN ALL THINGS. WHAT ALL THINGS?

EVERYTHING THAT GOD HAS TO OFFER THROUGH HIS SON JESUS CHRIST AND HIS FINISHED WORK AT THE CROSS.

AS THY SOUL PROSPERETH…. WE ARE NOT GOING TO PROSPER IF WE DON’T KNOW WHAT THE WORD SAYS

THE WORD IS THE TRUTH. THE TRUTH WON’T BLESS YOU IF YOU DON’T KNOW THE TRUTH AND APPLY IT TO YOUR DAILY WALK, BY RENEWING YOUR MIND…

YOU WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND THE MERCY OF GOD AND THE GRACE OF GOD UNTIL YOU HAVE HIS WORD IN YOUR HEART, AND A RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM BASED ON HIS WORD.

IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH CHRIST WITH ONE FOOT IN THE WORD AND THE OTHER FOOT IN THE WORLD…

WITH GOD IT IS ALL OR NOTHING, NO IFS, ANDS OR BUTS ABOUT IT.

IT IS TIME FOR GODS PEOPLE TO WAKE UP AND STAND UP AND BE WHAT GOD EXPECTS US TO BE.

READ MARK 16: 15-18..

AND HE SAID UNTO THEM, GO YE INTO ALL THE WORLD AND PREACH THE GOSPEL TO EVERY CREATURE…

V- 16... HE THAT BELIEVETH AND IS BAPTIZED SHALL BE SAVED, BUT HE THAT BELIEVETH NOT SHALL BE DAMNED

V-17... AND THESE SIGNS SHALL FOLLOW THEM THAT BELIEVE IN MY NAME, THEY SHALL CAST OUT DEVILS, THEY SHALL SPEAK WITH NEW TONGUES…THIS IS A SIGN

V-18... THEY SHALL TAKE UP SERPENTS, AND IF THEY DRINK ANY DEADLY THING, IT SHALL NOT HURT THEM, THEY SHALL LAY HANDS ON THE SICK, AND THEY SHALL RECOVER… DO YOU REALLY TRUST GOD?

THIS IS WHAT TRUSTING GOD MEANS.

GOD HAS A PLAN

GOD HAS A PLAN

READ JOHN 14:12-13 & V17 & V26

THE HOLY SPIRIT ABIDES OR LIVES IN US FOREVER CREATING AN AWARENESS, MAKING US AWARE WHEN WE ARE ABOUT TO GO WRONG.

GOD WANTS YOU TO LIVE AN ABUNDANT LIFE AND THE HOLY SPIRIT WANTS TO LEAD YOU IN THAT ABUNDANT LIFE.

YOU ARE NOT CREATED TO LIVE THE NORMAL LIFE, YOU ARE CREATED TO LIVE THE LIFE THAT GOES ABOVE AND BEYOND THE AVERAGE AND NORMAL.

IF YOU HAVE ACCEPTED JESUS AS SAVIOR YOU ARE CHILDREN OF THE SUPERNATURAL. WHAT EVER YOU NEED TO LEARN, THE HOLY SPIRIT IS THERE TO TEACH YOU.

BEING SAVED IS MORE THAN NOT GOING TO HELL. WISDOM OF HOW TO LIVE A RIGHTEOUS LIFE IS REVELATION KNOWLEDGE FROM THE HOLY SPIRIT.

EVERYTHING YOU WILL EVER NEED TO LIVE THIS CHRISTIAN LIFE IS ALREADY INSIDE OF YOU IN ITS ENTIREITY.

NOW WE MUST ACKNOWLEDGE WHAT HAS ALREADY BEEN DONE AND EXCEPT IT.

WE HAVE TO BELIEVE BEYOND THE FLESH, OR THE NATURAL AND START BELIEVING WITH OUR HEART

YOUR FEELINGS IS THE VOICE OF YOUR FLESH, REASONING IS THE VOICE OF YOUR SOUL, AND YOUR CONSCIENCE IS THE VOICE OF YOUR SPIRIT.

IF YOU ARE GOING TO WALK IN THE SPIRIT YOU WILL NEED A GUIDE, THE HOLY SPIRIT IS THAT GUIDE.

IT IS NOT ENOUGH JUST TO BE A CHRISTIAN. LOTS OF CHRISTIANS ARE BEING DEFEATED, SICK, BUSTED AND CONFUSED.

FOR MOST OF THEM IT IS EASIER TO FOLLOW THE TEN COMMANDMENTS (WHICH IS THE LAW) THAT CAN BE SEEN, THAN TO FOLLOW THE LEADING OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, WHICH THEY CAN NOT SEE.

READ PROV 3:5 LEAN NOT TO YOUR OWN UNDERSTANDING.

READ MATHEW 16: 15-19... GOD REVEALED A SECRET TO PETER, HE FOUND FAVOR WITH HIM… THIS WAS REVELATION, STRAIGHT FROM THE FATHER.

IF YOU WALK IN THE SPIRIT, OF GOD, THROUGH HIS HOLY SPIRIT HE WILL SUPERNATURALLY SPEAK THROUGH YOUR SPIRIT.

UPON THIS ROCK, I WILL BUILD MY CHURCH.. AND I WILL GIVE YOU THE KEYS TO THE KINGDOM.

WHAT IS BOUND ON EARTH…IS BOUND IN HEAVEN. WHAT IS LOOSED ON EARTH IS LOOSED IN HEAVEN.

NO ONE CAN STOP THE REVELATION WISDOM AND KNOWLEDGE OF GOD, AND YOU CAN NOT BE DEFEATED… WALK IN THE SPIRIT.

YOU CAN NOT STOP A PERSON WHO HAS REVELATION KNOWLEDGE.

PETER RECEIVED THIS WISDOM FROM THE HOLY SPIRIT AS TO WHO JESUS WAS…

READ JOHN 16:13.… THE HOLY SPIRIT OF TRUTH HAS COME AS A GUIDE, TO GUIDE YOU INTO ALL TRUTH, HE TRANSMITS TO YOU WHATEVER THE FATHER HAS…

WE ARE TO HAVE AN UNDERSTANDING MIND AND A HEARING HEART…

CAN YOU IMMAGINE WHERE CHRISTIANS WOULD BE TODAY IF THEY HAD A HEART THAT COULD HEAR FROM GOD… UNDERSTANDING WHAT THEY DON’T NOW UNDERSTAND…

THE SPIRIT OF GOD IS THE ONE WHO BRINGS WISDOM TO YOUR HEART.

WHAT CAN THE DEVIL DO WITH A CHRISTIAN WHO HAS A HEARING HEART? UNDERSTANDING WHAT HE THE DEVIL DOESN’T UNDERSTAND.

THE HOLY SPIRIT GRANTS YOU ACCESS TO WHAT YOU DON’T UNDERSTAND. WHEN THE HOLY SPIRIT SPEAKS TO YOU IT IS ALWAYS TO BUILD YOU UP.

EVERYTHING THAT YOU NEED IN LIFE HAS BEEN PROVIDED THROUGH GRACE.

READ PHIL 4:19 SUPPLIES ALL YOUR NEED

A LOT OF TIMES WE DO THINGS WE DON’T KNOW IS WRONG, IT IS CALLED LACK OF KNOWLEDGE.

EVEN THOUGH AS CHRISTIANS WE ARE SAVED, WE STILL LIVE IN THE FLESH. THE FLESH STILL HAS THE SAME OLD PROBLEM, IT WANTS ITS WAY, AND IT WANTS IT NOW…

WHEN YOU ARE BORN AGAIN YOUR SPIRIT DOES NOT PARTISAPATE OR AGREE WITH THE FLESH

DON’T GIVE PLACE TO YOUR FLESH, IT WILL LIE TO YOU.

THE DEVIL ATTACKS SO YOUR CONCIOUS IS IN A SIN PLACE, THUS KEEPING YOUR FAITH FROM WORKING.

STAY IN THE WORD, ALLOW THE WORD TO ADJUST YOUR MIND, WE NEED THE HOLY SPIRIT IN OUR LIVES, TO HELP US CHRISTIANS BATTLE OUR FLESH.

YOU MAY HAVE BEEN BORN AGAIN, BUT YOU STILL HAVE THAT SIN NATURE TO BATTLE.

PRAISE GOD WE STILL HAVE THE VICTORY…

GOD BLESS

BROTHER ANDY

Don't grieve the Holy Spirit




Read Math 12: 32 Understanding the word of God, the will of God and the importance of who the Holy Spirit is. You need the ability to place biblical facts in a proper perspective in your daily walk.

The Holy Spirit is the giver of peace, not the vexation (or) torment the devil puts on you…
Isaiah 10: 27 says… The Holy Spirit is a yoke breaker. The yoke will be destroyed because of the anointing.

The power of the Holy Spirit being released upon or within a person can break the thought patterns and emotional burdens on the Christians life…
Once this yoke is broken, then a feeling of peace will settle over you.

Read Rom 14: 17.… When the chains or yokes of depression and oppression are broken, these emotional and spiritual chains will be replaced by peace.

There is Righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit…To have peace is to be in a state of mind where the mind and body are free from mental frustrations.
Peace is so important to God that in
Numbers 25: 12 he spoke of giving his people a covenant of peace. Read Romans 5: 11 the Holy Spirit provides a level of peace

Living in sin produces discord, but forgiveness of sin produces peace with God.

Read John 16: 13 When we ignore the Holy Spirits call, instruction and direction, we open the door for satin that leads to actions of disobedience

Love, compassion and affection are all imparted by the Holy Spirit.

The word of God is based on Facts

Knowledge is the accumulation of facts

Understanding is the arrangement of facts

It is the ability through the Holy Spirit to place biblical facts in a proper perspective. The word of God and the Holy Spirit are an unbeatable team

Gods word is powerful, we are not living on blind faith, but the foundation of truth…

The Holy Spirit touches the emotional part of the human spirit, without emotions, there is no motivation. That is why you FEEL the presence of the Holy Spirit in a powerful worship service.

When Worship and praise are released in the service and everyone is in one accord, you can always feel the presence of the Holy Spirit…

When a church rejects any form of emotion in their worship service, the anointing of the Holy Spirit can not work, or inter in…He works through love, peace, joy and faith, in the word of God.

I have learned that God does not always work through perfect vessels. Not all believers have reached the heights of spiritual perfection.

Most of us struggle, but the anointing has always flowed through obedient vessels.

Sometimes believers struggle with lack of self-esteem. Like fear of failure, doubt and guilt from their past. Also a lack of confidence, even in their own prayers being answered,

Jesus used common men to turn the world upside down. Sometimes even anointed men of God miss the mark and do foolish things.

The anointing did not prevent them from being exposed to the world system and the influence of temptation.

The failure came, not because the Holy Spirit was not indwelling them, But because they yielded to the voice of the tempter, who is the devil.

When you meet the tempter head on… refuse to follow his voice or yield to his deception

If we could mature to perfection without the Holy Spirit, then we would not need him to dwell within us.

He is given to help us in our weakness.

God Bless,
Brother Andy

WISDOM OF GOD


As we read Proverbs 1:2 we see that it is saying, “to know wisdom and instruction is to perceive the words of understanding“…To grasp wisdom and discipline, to understanding Gods wisdom for your life, you need to increase learning by hearing the word of God.

Proverbs 1:23 says, turn to me and I will pour out my spirit for you, and make my words known to you. So we need to incline our ears to the wisdom of God and apply our hearts to his understanding.

When we stay on the path of righteousness, wisdom will enter your heart, and preserve you, and keep you with knowledge and understanding. Wisdom will save you from the way of evil, from those who enjoy doing evil, so you can walk in the way of good people, and stay on the path of righteousness.

Wisdom is available to each and every person, no one needs to be a failure. The wisdom of God is at our disposal, it is always present in us and with us. By not using knowledge, we are showing lack of wisdom.

Knowledge is not enough, you can have a lot of knowledge, but if you don’t have wisdom, knowledge is of little use. Wisdom grows out of love, success grows out of wisdom, wisdom never acts outside of love. Love is the basic law of God. The realm of Gods love makes its own love. It is above what we are feeling.

Gods wisdom, which is Gods mind, will incorporate the things of God into our minds, it will incorporate health into our bodies and strength for our daily lives.

When we walk worthy before the Lord, it is pleasing to him and will increase knowledge and wisdom in our lives. He will bless you with all might according to His power with joyfulness.

Giving thanks unto God has made us to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light. God has delivered us from the power of darkness, and has brought us into the kingdom of his son Jesus.

When a person receives eternal life, they are linked to His wisdom through the Holy Spirit, because He is wisdom.

Wisdom is the ability to use knowledge and make it worthwhile. Knowledge alone is not the answer.

Wisdom does not come from reasoning, wisdom only comes from God through the Holy Spirit.

If you have not asked Jesus to come into your heart and be your Lord, now is a good time to do that… then the knowledge and wisdom of God can be yours.

Be wise,

Brother Andy

FAITH

FAITH





READ HEB 11:1.… FAITH IN GODS WORD IS A SUPERNATURAL REALITY OF AN ESSENTIAL PART OF ANYTHING THAT EXISTS

IT IS A SUPERNATURAL MATERIAL, A SUBSTANCE OR THE PART OF GODS WORD THAT TRANSFERS THINGS FROM THE HEAVENLY SUPERNATURAL REALM TO THE EARTHLY NATURAL REALM.IT IS THE SUBSTANCE OF THINGS HOPED FOR.

READ JOHN 14:2-3

HOPE IS EXPECTATION, FROM SOMETHING GOOD, BY OBTAINING IT OR AT LEAST BELIEVING IT IS OBTAINABLE…

THE BLESSED HOPE IS CONFIDENCE IN A FUTURE EVENT LIKE FOR INSTANCE THE RAPTURE OF THE CHURCH.

WEBSTER SAYS THAT EVIDENCE IS THE PROOF OF SOMETHING OR THE GROUNDS FOR BELIEF… LIKE IN COURT, THE PROOF OF THE FACTS OF SOMETHING.

FAITH IS TRUSTING GOD AT HIS WORD AND RELYING ON IT…BELIEVING IT IS THE TRUTH, THAT GOD WOULD NOT LIE…

FAITH IN GODS WORD CREATES A SUPERNATURAL SUBSTANCE IN YOU THAT IS HOPED FOR…THIS SUBSTANCED IN YOU IS A REAL THING, IT IS A CERTAINTY THAT WHAT WE HOPED FOR IS WAITING FOR US… LIKE HEAVEN

EVEN THOUGH WE CAN’T SEE IT UP AHEAD, FAITH IS THE FULL ASSURANCE THAT GODS HOLY WORD IS TRUTH. FAITH IS REAL, FAITH CREATES SUBSTANCE, FAITH IS NOT JUST WORDS…

THINGS HOPED FOR IS THE SUBSTANCE CREATED BY FAITH, IN OTHER WORDS IT IS CONFORMATION OR THE PROOF OF THINGS WE DO NOT SEE…

WE CAN’T SEE THE AIR WE BREATH, BUT YOUR BREATHING IS CONFORMATION OR PROOF THAT IT IS THERE…

WE CAN’T SEE FAITH, WE CAN’T TOUCH, FEEL, SMELL OR TASTE FAITH, THE REASON IS, FAITH IS NOT A NATURAL THING…FAITH IS A SUPERNATURAL BELIEF IN GOD’S WORD THAT HE WILL DO WHAT HE SAYS HE WILL

FAITH WILL SAVE YOU, SANCTIFY YOU, FAITH WILL MAKE YOU WHOLE…

READ MARK 5:34... AND HE SAID UNTO HER, DAUGHTER, THY FAITH HATH MADE THEE WHOLE,GO IN PEACE, AND BE WHOLE OF THY PLAGUE.

2ND CORR 5:7 SAYS… FOR WE WALK BY FAITH NOT BY SIGHT… LETS SAY THE PASTOR CALLED ME AND SAID I HAVE A HOUSE FOR SALE I WANT YOU TO SEE.

IT LOOKS GOOD IN A GOOD NEIGHBORHOOD.

BUT I MYSELF HAVE NOT SEEN THIS HOUSE…

EVEN THOUGH I HAVE NOT SEEN IT, I HAVE CONFIDENCE IN THE PASTORS WORD…

MY FAITH IN HIS WORD, IS THE EVIDENCE OF THE HOUSE THAT I HAVE NOT SEEN…IT IS THE CONFIDENCE THAT THE PASTOR WOULD NOT LIE…GODS WORD WORKS THE SAME WAY, BY FAITH AND CONFIDENCE.

HEB 10:38 SAYS… THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH…IF YOU ARE BORN AGAIN, YOU ARE THE JUST

WHEN YOU ACCEPTED JESUS AS PERSONAL SAVIOR YOU WERE BORN AGAIN, SOMETHING SUPERNATURAL HAPPENED TO YOU. YOU ARE NOW A NEW CREATION, A SPIECIES THAT DIDN’T EXIST BEFORE.

YOU HAVE BEEN TRANSFORMED FROM THE NATURAL CREATION TO THE SUPERNATURAL CREATION…

YOU HAVE A NEW SPIRIT, OLD THINGS HAVE PASSED AWAY…NOW THE HOLY SPIRIT LIVES IN YOU, THE WORD OF GOD LIVES IN YOU, AND NOW YOU HAVE POWER AND AUTHORITY LED BY THE WISDOM OF THE HOLY SPIRIT…

FAITH IS NOT A RELIGIOUS MOVEMENT: IT IS A WAY OF LIFE. FAITH IS THE WORD OF GOD AND YOU CAN’T SEPARATE FAITH AND HIS WORD.

FAITH IS NOT BASED ON YOUR FEELINGS, IT IS BASED ON THE INSPIRED WORD OF GOD. YOUR FEELINGS ARE NOT GOING TO MOVE GOD. YOU CAN FALL DOWN, KICK AND SQUALL, IT WILL NOT MOVE GOD

THE ONLY THINGS THAT WILL MOVE GOD IS FAITH IN HIS WORD, OBEDIENCE TO HIS WORD, AND PRAYING IN CONFIDENCE…IF YOU DON’T KNOW GODS WILL, WHICH IS HIS WILL, YOU DON’T HAVE ANY BASIS FOR FAITH TO WORK ON…

HEB 11:6 SAYS… IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO PLEASE HIM WITHOUT FAITH…YOU WILL NEVER WALK IN THE SPIRIT DOMINATED BY THE FLESH OR CARNAL/NATURAL WAY OF THINKING.

YOU WILL NEVER HAVE FAITH IN GOD OR HIS WORD UNTIL YOU LEARN TO TRUST HIM AND BUILD A RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM…

PROV 3:5-6... SAYS... TRUST IN THE LORD AND NOT IN YOUR OWN UNDERSTANDING.

GOD NEVER CHANGES, HIS WORD NEVER CHANGES, REAL FAITH IS BUILT ON AND GROWS OUT OF THE WORD OF GOD…

GOD HAS PROVIDED THE WAY WHERE EVERYONE CAN HAVE FAITH. WE ALL HAVE A MEASURE OF FAITH



Face to Face

Face to Face

In John 3:16, God loved his creation so much until he sent Jesus down to earth to clean up the mess we people (his creation) created.

He knew we were helpless against Satan and his demonic forces.

What most don’t understand is that Jesus didn’t come down to condemn us, but rather that we would be saved from our sins and be with God forever.

That when we choose to believe Him, in the one that God sent, we won’t be destroyed. The situation today is there is no awareness of God’s love, or the fact that if he came to take his people ( the ones who choose to believe in Jesus and accept Him as savior) to heaven they would be left behind for their choice not to believe in Jesus. The left behind would have to face the seven years of tribulation.

In 2nd Thess 2: 3 it speaks of the fact that people will deceive you by any means. There will be a great falling away of Christians from the gospel just before the great tribulation.

Many Christians have turned away from reading the word, hearing the word and do not spread the word. These same Christians then wonder why their prayers are not answered.

Life is not a game of chance, it is a matter of choice. The devil does not play fair. However the Lord did not leave you at Satan’s mercy. The only way to win this spiritual war is with the word. Put on your armor every day. Decide every day to follow Jesus.

We have a new covenant with Jesus our savior. He is faithful. He will not leave or forsake you. He is only a prayer away.

Mathew 10:38 says… he that taketh up not his cross and follow me is not worthy of me. Your decision to follow Jesus every day will determine the outcome of your eternal life. Someday you will stand face to face with Jesus. Have you made the right choices? Will you spend eternity with the Lord?

Be blessed,

Brother Andy.

USING THE AUTHORITY OF THE LORD

Using the Authority of the Lord

It has occurred to me that there are a lot of Christians that do not know how to use the authority that Jesus left with us. I hope this will help some of you to access and use that authority.

Praise God that we as believers in the Lord Jesus Christ that he is our savior, have the authority to combat the devil through what Jesus and Gods word has revealed to us.

In this life when the devil puts thoughts and ideas in our head, when he tries to torment us with those thoughts and ideas, we have the authority left to us by Jesus to come against him in the name and Blood of Jesus.

Some Christians have no Idea that they can plead Jesus’ blood for their protection. I use that authority regularly when I pray for others as well as when I feel like I am under attack from the devil.

When a thought comes to you that is tormenting you… or telling you things that are of no benefit to you, come against it. Rebuke it in the name and blood of Jesus. Tell it, you thought I rebuke you and cast you out in the name and the blood of Jesus… He has given me power and authority over you. Then go on about your business… think on good things on holy things of God. Plead the Blood of Jesus over your head, heart, mind, body and spirit. Over every possession you have. Over your family…

We have the whole armor of God.

Read, meditate and believe Eph 6:10-17. Apply it your lives, it is your life saver.

First of all you do have an enemy, his name is Satan. He is a killer, liar. and deceiver. He simply wants to destroy your life. He really doesn’t want any of us to believe in Jesus. He will use every thing he can to torment you.

The word of God in Eph 6:10-17 lets us know we have the favor of God and the enemy knows that, and he sure doesn’t want you to know it. This word starts out telling us to be strong in the Lord and the power of His might. Not the power of your might.

While we are living in the flesh with a carnal natural mind, this battle we are in is not a physical war, it is spiritual war. You can not win this spiritual war on your own. You need wisdom and heavenly power from God through his word and His Holy Spirit to win this battle. The things below are helpful to know.

1. The helmet of salvation is to protect your soul, your way of thinking, your soul is made up of your mind, will and emotion.

2. The belt of truth of righteousness it is about girding your self with the truth, it is knowing the truth that sets you free.

3.The breastplate is knowing that it will protect your heart. Shod your feet means prepare your feet with the wisdom of God so as you walk Gods Holy Spirit will direct you and be a light on your pathway.

5. The shield of faith, Hebrews 11:6 says… it is impossible to please God without faith. Faith is about knowing, and believing his word. So with faith you will be able to stop the fiery darts of the devil. “The fiery darts are strategies and deceptions that he uses to lead us away from our faith and trust in God.”

6. The sword of the spirit, which is the true word of God that the Holy spirit puts in your heart to help you through every situation.

1st Peter 5:8 says… he is an adversary, a devil seeking whom he may devour. John 10:10 says… he comes for to kill steal kill and destroy. But I like what the second half of John 10:10 says… I am come that you might have life and have it more abundantly.

Stay close to God and have no fear for Heb. 13:5 says… I will never leave you or forsake you.

2nd Tim 1:7 says… for God hath not given us the spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.

It is important to realize that when we have doubts and fears we only need call on the Lord… “Jesus help me in my weakness. Lord help me learn to use your word to defeat the devour.”

Nothing in your past that causes you mental pain or anguish has any place in your present… to have a great future we need only to remember we have Power and Authority given to us by the Lord to rebuke the torments of the devil.

I hope this will lead you to use your authority to make your life better.

God bless

THERE IS A STORM COMING

THERE IS A STORM COMING

I want to take this time at the beginning of the lesson to ask the Lord to open your mind and heart, to fill you with His love and to bless this note today to your understanding.

Read Psalms 91: 15 He shall call upon me and I will answer him, I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him.

Notice how many times he says I WILL… if God says He will, He will. If He says He can, He can.

Gods promise, Gods provision, is much bigger than your problems.

I remember as a child, we would watch the sky as a storm would be building up and when it got to the point of possibly being a bad storm we would head to the storm cellar.

This was our place of safety until the storm was over. Certain types of storms many times do a lot of damage, especially to homes and property.

But the storm I am going to tell you about has nothing to do with the wind and rain.

Even though Gods word says, for he will give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways, He is our Shelter and protection in the storm that is coming. It is because of religiousness, rebellion, envy, pride and lack of knowledge, all orchestrated by Satan the god of darkness.

Believe it or not, there are millions of people that still think they are doing god a favor by killing Christians. They have been brainwashed, have lack of knowledge, and are demon oppressed. They have been lied to by Satan himself.

They have been told as babies on up to adulthood that their way is the only way. There way is to deceive, manipulate and kill their way to heaven.

I am here to tell you that Jesus said in John 14: 6 “ I am the way, the truth and the life, no man cometh unto the father but by me.” Jesus himself said this.

Wake up people, a really bad storm is coming, don’t take my word for it, look at the world situation. See the people who are dying in the streets, in their homes, in shopping malls etc. People are committing suicide. Stress, confusion, anger and hate are taking over people. They are doing horrible things this day in time. Murder, bombings mass murder and much more.

2nd Timothy 3: 1 says… this know also that in the last days, perilous times shall come. It is here now. If you have not accepted Jesus Christ as your savior you need to make that decision now.

The choice is yours. It is for sure we will spend eternity somewhere, I choose Heaven. Eternity is a long time, to spend because we wouldn’t choose Jesus. Make your choice today, choose Jesus.

All you have to do is say, Lord I accept you as my personal savior, I believe you came to earth, lived as a man, was crucified, died and rose again the third day. Come into my heart today Lord, I ask it in Jesus holy name. amen

The Lord Bless you,

Brother Andy

THE MERCY OF GOD

THE MERCY OF GOD

MERCY IS THE REASON WE WORSHIP GOD, IT MOTIVATES US TO WALK HOLY BEFORE HIM

IT GIVES US CONFIDENCE THAT WE CAN COME BEFORE HIM WITHOUT FEAR.

WE CAN REST IN KNOWING THAT THE MERCY OF GOD IS GREATER AND STRONGER THAN ANYTHING ELSE. IT HAS UNLIMITED ENDURANCE

READ PS. 136            O GIVE THANKS UNTO THE LORD, FOR HE IS GOOD, FOR HIS MERCY ENDURETH FOREVER

TO HIM WHO ALONE DOETH GREAT WONDERS
TO HIM THAT WISDOM MADE THE HEAVENS
TO HIM THAT STRECHED OUT THE EARTH ABOVE THE WATERS
TO HIM THAT MADE GREAT LIGHTS, SUN AND MOON
THE SUN TO RULE BY DAY, THE MOON AND THE STARS TO RULE BY THE NIGHT
AND HAS REDEEMED US FROM OUR ENEMIES
O GIVE THANKS UNTO THE GOD OF HEAVEN FOR HIS MERCY ENDURETH FOREVER

 
LOOKING AT THIS YOU CAN SEE THAT EACH WORK OF GOD IS COVERED BY HIS MERCY

THE THINGS THAT THE MERCY OF GOD PUT INTO ACTION ARE WONDERS, WISDOM AND HIS CREATIVE POWER

GOD’S MERCY IS GREAT, NOT ONLY DOES IT LAST FOREVER, BUT IT IS HOLY

BECAUSE LOVE… THE SOURCE OF MERCY AND COMPASSION IS THE BASIS OF HOLINESS

EVERY TIME WE REMEMBER HOW HOLY GOD IS WE ARE TO GIVE THANKS AND PRAISE HIM.  FOR HIS MERCY ENDURES FOREVER.

MERCY IS A MOTIVATING FACTOR, GOD WANTS US TO EXPERIENCE HIS JOY BY LIVING AND WALKING AFTER HIS EXAMPLE

IN HIS MERCY, HE IS TRYING TO KEEP US FROM SIN WHICH HAS THE POWER TO KILL US

WE ARE TO REJOICE AND WORSHIP HIM BECAUSE HIS HOLINESS IS AN EXPRESSION OF HIS LOVE

DON’T ALLOW CONDEMNATION TO KEEP YOU FROM ACTING ON THE MERCY OF GOD…

READ JOHN 5:24

GOD’S LOVE NEVER CHANGES, NOT ANYTHING YOU DO WILL MAKE GOD LOVE YOU ANY MORE OR ANY LESS

HE LOVES YOU WITH ALL THAT HE IS, AND HE IS ALL LOVE

READ PS 145: 8-9                  THE LORD IS GRACIOUS AND FULL OF COMPASSION, SLOW TO ANGER, AND OF GREAT MERCY

THE WORD GRACIOUS MEANS MERCIFUL COMPASSION, OR POSSESSION OF DIVINE GRACE, OR FINDING FAVOR...

VS 9  SAYS … THE LORD IS GOOD TO ALL AND HIS TENDER MERCIES ARE OVER ALL HIS WORKS

THE DEVIL DOES NOT WANT YOU TO ACCEPT GODS MERCY

HE DOES NOT WANT YOU TO WALK IN LOVE, HE KNOWS YOU WOULD BE VICTORIOUS IN DOING THAT

GOD WANTS TO BUILD WITHIN US DESIRES TO PRAY, TO WALK IN LOVE, AND TO SPEAK THE RIGHT WORDS…

THE RESULT WILL BE THAT WE WILL SPEAK OUT GOOD THINGS, GOOD PRAYERS AND A GOOD CONFESSION OF FAITH

READ LUKE 6: 36      YOU ARE TO BE MERCIFUL AS YOUR FATHER IS MERCIFUL

GOD PROMISES US HIS MERCY, BUT AS BELIEVERS, WE MUST ACT AS THOUGH HIS WORD IS TRUE, OR WE WILL NEVER HAVE ANY FAITH IN HIS WORD…

YOU CAN HAVE A BIBLE ON EVERY TABLE IN THE HOUSE, BUT IF YOU NEVER DEPEND ON WHAT GODS WORD SAYS, AND ACT ON IT, ITS POWER WILL NEVER BE RELEASED IN YOUR LIFE
 
GODS GRACE THROUGH FAITH MAKES THINGS WORK IN YOUR LIFE

GODS MERCY IS WHAT CAUSES HIS GRACE TO WORK

MERCY IS NOT A THING, AND COMPASSION IS NOT A FEELING

TOGETHER THEY MANIFEST A PERSON

THESE THREE MERCY, LOVE AND COMPASSION FORM THE IDENTITY OF GOD HIMSELF

WHEN THESE THREE QUALITIES DEMONSTRATE THEMSELVES IN THE SON OF GOD, THEY BECOME A VERY POWERFUL FORCE

ONE OF THE THINGS GOD WANTS US TO KNOW IS THAT SALVATION SPRINGS FORTH FROM HIS MERCY

GOD IN HIS MERCY KNEW WE COULD NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT OUR SINFULNESS, SO INSTEAD OF ASKING YOU TO CLEAN YOURSELF UP…

HE ASKED YOU TO RECEIVE HIM AND LET HIM CLEAN YOU UP

THE MERCY OF GOD IS THE COMPELLING POWER BEHIND THE DIVINE RESCUE OF THE HUMAN RACE

IT IS THE ONLY FORCE IN THE UNIVERSE STRONG ENOUGH TO TAKE BACK MANKIND FROM THE GRIP OF SATAN…

GOD BLESS,
BROTHER ANDY

A MISSION OF VISION


A MISSION OF VISION

READ PROV 29: 18

WHERE THERE IS NO VISION, THE PEOPLE PERISH. YOUR VISION IS THE PURPOSE OF GOD’S WILL FOR YOUR LIFE

SATAN KNOWS THAT WITHIN YOUR PURPOSE LIES YOUR GREAT POTENTIAL

WE HAVE RESOURCES WITHIN EACH OF US AND ASTOUNDINGLY THAT GREAT CAPACITY IS VIRTUALLY UNTAPPED

THERE IS A GREAT POTENTIAL OF WHAT YOU CAN BECOME FOR GOD…SO WHAT IS YOUR MISSION?

READ HOSEA 4:6...MY PEOPLE ARE DESTROYED FOR LACK OF KNOWLEDGE…

WHERE THERE IS NO VISION THE PEOPLE PERISH,
WHERE THERE IS NO KNOWLEDGE THE PEOPLE ARE DESTROYED
WITHOUT THE WORD OF GOD IN YOUR HEART, THERE IS NO WISDOM

READ COL 2: 2-3...IN WHOM ARE HID ALL THE TREASURES OF WISDOM AND KNOWLEDGE…

PROV 5:1 SAYS MY SON, ATTEND UNTO MY WISDOM AND BOW THINE EAR TO MY UNDERSTANDING

IF YOU DON’T HAVE UNDERSTANDING YOUR EYES WILL BE BLINDED TO THE TRUTH

READ 2ND COR 4:4... THE GOD OF THIS WORLD (SATAN) HATH BLINDED THE MINDS OF THEM THAT BELIEVETH NOT…

WITHOUT PURPOSE, THERE CAN BE NO VISION
WITHOUT VISION THERE IS NO COMMITMENT
WITHOUT COMMITMENT THERE IS NO JOY
WITHOUT JOY THERE IS NO FULFILMENT

WE ALL WANT THE FULNESS OF GOD IN OUR LIVES… THE FULNESS OF GOD IS NOTHING MISSIING, NOTHING BROKEN. OUR MISSION IN LIFE IS TO DO GODS WILL

THE REASON GOD HAS A WILL FOR YOUR LIFE IS HE ALWAYS KNOWS WHAT IS BEST FOR US. HE SEES THE BIG PICTURE OF ALL THAT WILL HAPPEN IN OUR LIVES.

HIS PURPOSE FOR US IS TO SEE US PROSPER AS OUR SOUL PROSPERS.

FOR US TO HAVE JOY IN OUR LIVES AND WORSHIP HIM…

SIMPLY BY FOLLOWING GOD’S WORD FOR OUR LIVES, WE CAN HAVE ANYTHING THAT WE DESIRE…

1ST JOHN 5:4 READ FOR WHAT SO EVER IS BORN OF GOD, OVERCOMMETH THE WORLD. AND THIS IS THE VICTORY THAT OVERCOMMETH THE WORLD, EVEN OUR FAITH

KEEP YOUR EYES UPON THE LORD, REMEMBER WHERE THERE IS NO VISION, THE PEOPLE PERISH.


CONTINUE TO SEEK GOD IN HIS WORD. HE WILL SHOW YOU THE PURPOSE HE HAS FOR YOUR LIFE.

GOD BLESS,

THE WILL OF GOD

THE WILL OF GOD

The will of God is the Word of God, Gods will is his plan for each individuals life to fit into a perfect spirit filled life also known as the body of Christ.

This plan was set up in heaven before you were even born.

Sometimes even Christians, especially new Christians have a hard time understanding the finished work that Jesus did at the cross.

Gods will his word, is speaking to you. The difference between his word (the bible) and other books is the word of God which is His will for all peoples life was the only book inspired by all mighty God himself.

You will hear the term Living Word, and that is exactly what Gods word is.

His will causes angels to operate in ones life, finds favor among the righteous, heals the sick, sets the captives free from bondage and more.

The will of God is kind and full of power and authority. The will of God is unconditional love, you can’t be bad enough to cause Him to stop loving you, and you can’t be good enough to cause Him to love you more. You might say why is this, it is because God is all love.

Believe it or not God is one hundred percent on your side. You might say, “ I have done this, or that, how can God still love me”.

I am here to tell you that the word says, “ all have sinned and come short of the glory of God”. Romans 3:23 God is big enough and good enough to forgive any sin we might have.

I don’t know who I am talking to today, but I am led by the Holy Spirit to write this on paper for someone, somewhere.

We are in the end times as the word has predicted, soon Gods Son the Real Jesus is coming back, just as he left to take us to heaven to live with him eternally. We are all going to spend eternity somewhere.

The only thing that will keep you from going to heaven is not accepting Gods Son, Jesus, as Lord and Savior of your life.

Romans 10: 9-10 says… if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you shall be saved.

God is real, the devil is real, whoever is reading this today, if you have not accepted Jesus as your Lord and savior, make the choice today to accept Jesus and be saved, He is waiting for you.

The Lord bless you,

Brother Andy

BEHOLD THE LAMB OF GOD

BEHOLD THE LAMB OF GOD

READ JOHN 1:28-29… THESE THINGS WERE DONE IN BETH-AB-A-RA, BEYOND JORDAN WHERE JOHN WAS BAPTIZING…

THE NEXT DAY JOHN SEETH JESUS COMING UNTO HIM, AND SAITH, BEHOLD THE LAMB OF GOD, WHICH TAKETH AWAY THE SIN OF THE WORLD.

BEHOLD MEANS TO FIX YOUR EYES UPON. BEHOLD (FIX YOUR EYES) UPON JESUS AND THE FINISHED WORK AT THE CROSS.

EVERY ASPECT OF YOUR LIFE WAS LAYED OUT AT CALVARY. YOUR HEALING, YOUR PROSPERITY, YOUR SALVATION. ALL OF THIS WAS DONE AT THE CROSS

THROUGH THE BLOOD OF JESUS YOU WERE SAVED, SANCTIFIED, GLORIFIED, AND PURIFIED SO PURE UNTIL HIS HOLY SPIRIT COULD COME AND DWELL IN YOU.

WHEN YOU GET BORN AGAIN GODS SPIRIT INTERES INTO YOUR SPIRIT AND YOUR SPIRIT IS SEALED…  SATIN CAN NOT TOUCH YOUR SPIRIT…BEHOLD THE LAMB OF GOD.

FIX YOUR EYES UPON JESUS… UNTO HIM WHO IS ABLE…HE IS ABLE TO FULFILL ALL YOUR NEEDS. DIRECT YOUR ATTENTION TO JESUS AND GET OVER INTO THE SUPERNATURAL.

READ 2ND CORR. 3:17-18… NOW THE LORD IS THAT SPIRIT AND WHERE THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD IS, THERE IS LIBERTY.

NO MORE CAPTIVITY, YOU ARE FREE,

FREE FROM BONDAGE,

FREE FROM CONFUSION,

FREE FROM STRESS,

FREE FROM DEPRESSION.

READ VS 18… BUT WE ALL, WITH OPEN FACES AS BEHOLDING IN A GLASS, THE GLORIY OF THE LORD, AND WE ARE CHANGED INTO THE SAME IMAGE FROM GLORY TO GLORY, EVEN AS BY THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD.

HE IS SAYING, KEEP YOUR EYES UPON JESUS AND YOU WILL BE TRANSFORMED INTO THE IMAGE OF WHAT YOU ARE BEHOLDING. YOU WILL BE TRANSFORMED INTO THE IMAGE OF JESUS.

IT IS NOT A TRANSFORMATION OF YOUR WORKS, OR YOUR EFFORT, IT IS THE TRANSFORMATION OF YOUR SOUL BY THE SUPERNATURAL POWER OF GOD THROUGH HIS SON JESUS, THE LAMB OF GOD.

GOD SEES US THROUGH JESUS, THE KEY TO DELIVERENCE IS TO STOP LOOKING AT THE CIRCUMSTANCES AROUND YOU, AND START LOOKING AT THE SUPERNATURAL REALM. JESUS

DON’T BE PREOCCUPIED WITH YOUR NATURAL ABILITY IT ONLY LEADS TO DISSAPOINTMENT AND EMPTINESS.

READ MATH 14: 22-28… NATURAL MAN CAN’T WALK ON WATER, IF YOU ARE GOING TO WALK ON WATER, YOU HAVE TO KEEP YOUR EYES UPON JESUS.

AS LONG AS PETER KEPT HIS EYES ON JESUS, HE WAS IN THE REALM OF THE SUPERNATURAL… WHEN YOU BEHOLD SUPERNATURAL THINGS YOU BECOME WHAT YOU BEHOLD.

WHILE PETER WAS IN THE SUPERNATURAL, WATCHING THE SUPERNATURAL, NATURAL THINGS STARTED TAKING PLACE AROUND HIM…

SOMETIMES THINGS ARE GOING GREAT AND THEN A CIRCUMSTANCE SHOWS UP AND THE FIRST THING WE DO IS GET OVER IN THE NATURAL… INSTEAD OF BEHOLDING THE LAMB OF GOD WE PANIC…

MATH 14:29-33 SAYS… PETER SAID LORD IF IT IS YOU HELP ME COME TO YOU ON THE WATER…PETER ACTUALLY WALKED ON THE WATER TO GO TO JESUS.  HOW DID HE DO THAT? HIS EYES WERE FIXED ON JESUS.

BUT BEFORE HE GOT TO JESUS THE WIND CAME UP AND HE STARTED LOOKING AT THE CIRCUMSTANCES AND TOOK HIS EYES OFF JESUS. WHEN WE TAKE OUR EYES OFF JESUS WE GET BACK INTO THE NATURAL AND TRY TO DO THINGS IN OUR OWN EFFORTS AND OWN WORKS, AND THAT IS HOW WE GET DEFEATED.

YOU WILL NEVER HAVE VICTORY IN THE NATURAL REALM, WE HAVE AN ADVERSARY. THE DEVIL DOES EVERYTHING HE CAN TO GET YOU TO TAKE YOUR EYES OFF JESUS.

EVERY PROBLEM YOU FACE IS TO GET YOUR EYES OFF JESUS, EVERY BILL THAT COMES IN, EVERY PROBLEM IN YOUR MARRIAGE…

WHEN YOU TAKE YOUR EYES OFF JESUS YOU ARE NO LONGER WALKING IN THE SUPERNATURAL…  NOW IS THE TIME TO BEHOLD THE LAMB OF GOD.

KEEP BEHOLDING HIM,

BROTHER ANDY

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FEELINGS


Understanding your feelings

            Today even Christians seem to be falling short of the manifestation of Gods blessings. Many things can happen to cause us not to see the manifestation of Gods blessings.

Sometimes we lack the wisdom of what we need to do to receive Gods blessings.

            God promises us an abundant life in his word. He has made every provision needed for us to have our abundant life. We always get an answer to our prayers. Sometimes we “feel” that we aren’t going to get our answer and those feelings short circuit our faith.

            Lets say you came up to have the minister pray for a terrible pain you are having, the minister prayed and believed your pain would be healed, but you say later I didn’t get my healing because you still feel pain.

            Just because you still feel the pain does not mean you are not healed. Have faith declare you are healed, rebuke the pain. 1st Corr 4: 20 says… for the kingdom of God is not just in word but in power. Let the word guide you in your thinking not your feelings… Claim your healing. Praise God for it. Declare it. Trust God.

            Your feelings are the mental and physical part of you. The spiritual part of you is an area that satin can not touch. He comes like a thief in the night to try and trick your mind into believing something has gone wrong in your healing. He is a liar and a thief. He will do his best to rob you of your healing and your peace of mind. He comes but to kill, steal, and destroy. Rebuke him. Don’t let him steal from you.

            Don’t let stress or depression make you say something you don’t mean. Like “if God loves me why can’t I catch a break, or why me Lord… keep the faith. Don’t waiver.

            We serve a powerful supernatural God that loves us so much he sent his son to die on the cross so we would have that promise of his word. He wants us to have life in abundance, life eternal with Him and peace of mind, joy unspeakable.

            God’s promises and provisions are bigger than any problem or feelings that come our way. Hang on to the Word, continue in faith. Remember you are the healed, the blessed, the child of God, heir to the throne. Jesus is your friend, closer than a brother.

            Have courage; fight the good fight of faith. Plead the blood in your life, claim victory, decree victory. Keep your eyes on the future, heaven and eternity weighs in the balance. We will soon be in heaven with the Lord. Bring those feeling under subjection to the power and authority of the Lord.

            Read Psalms 46. Stay in the Word.

            God bless,

            Brother Andy

HOW TO MAINTAIN YOUR HEALING AND PROSPERITY

How to maintain your healing and prosperity

Today I want to follow up on the last message concerning healing and prosperity and how to keep your victory from being influenced by the power of darkness.

It is true, Jesus came and did all that was needed for us to have a victorious life, good health, a prosperous lifestyle along with peace and joy.

Even though this is true, and it is, the word says in John 10: 10 … He also came that we might have life and life more abundantly. Abundantly means more than enough to meet your needs.

However in the same John 10: 10 it says… the thief comes to kill, steal and destroy. So even though healing and prosperity always comes, it is not always received or kept, “maintained“.

When you pray ask God for what you want, loose it then the windows of heaven open and send it your way, then say I receive what I am praying for.

If you received it and by faith you have it you might not feel like it. The manifestation of Gods promises does not operate in feelings. It always operates on His word by faith, because he is a God that can not lie… Heb 6: 18. Just keep thanking him for the gift of what you prayed for, believing that God wants you to have it and keep it.

As a born again believer, you have every right to live a victorious lifestyle, Jesus made it available at the cross. His stripes are healing, His blood purified you so pure until The Holy Spirit came and lives in you and the Holy Spirit sealed your spirit forever.

Now satan can not touch your spirit, he can only use deception through your thinking to harm you. That is how he caused Eve to eat of the forbidden fruit… deception. That is how the devil will try to steal what you prayed for. That is why it is a good idea to put on the full armor of God. As you have read in a previous lesson. It will protect you from the devils deceptions.

The devil will use all kinds of strategies to cause people to forsake their blessings from God. He gets you over into doubt. Doubt will cancel out your faith. You will think, well healing is just not for me, or, I didn’t get it. Wrong… God gave it to you, hold on to it… nothing is too big for God to handle.

A lot of victories in healing and prosperity have been lost due to doubting Gods word. Stay in the Word. Know in your heart that God is for you. If God be for you who can be against you?

All things pertaining to the word of God hinges on the depth of your faith. Heb 11: 6 says… without faith it is impossible to please God. With out faith you step outside Gods favor, His blessings and His ministering angels.

Without faith we can not walk in Gods righteousness. We obtain righteousness only by what Jesus did at the cross, The blood of Jesus makes us righteous. We can not do enough to be righteous on our own. We all need Jesus. We all fail and sin, ask forgiveness for sin and continue loving God and believing his word.

You can not save yourself, heal yourself and you sure can’t fight and win over the world system by yourself. But by faith in God, trusting in the leading of the Holy Spirit, you are a winner.

Stay in the Word, God bless you

HOW TO RECEIVE YOUR HEALING

How to Receive your healing

As I watch people coming forward at church, most are coming up for prayer about healing or prosperity. Healing is most likely the number one cause for people to come forward.

Since so many Christians are fighting sickness and diseases I have to wonder if they know how to pray, and if they are applying Gods word concerning health and prosperity.

In John 8: 31-32 Jesus says, If you continue in my word, then you shall know the truth and the truth will make you free. Free from what?

Free from the bondage of the world system, and from sickness, poverty, etc.

In Isaiah 53: 4-5 it says, Surely He has borne our grief and carried our sorrows, he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities, and by his stripes we are healed.

So if the stripes of Jesus healed us why do so many Christians still get sickness and diseases? Sickness, disease and poverty certainly don’t come from God, so we the people must have missed something somewhere.

Maybe this… read Hosea 4: 6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge, because you have rejected knowledge, I will also reject you, I will also forget your children.

Lack of knowledge is because people won’t read and believe Gods word… How are you going to have faith in Gods word if you don’t read Gods word?

Not all people tell you the truth, they may think they are, Not all preachers teach all the truth. To know what the Word says you need to read it for yourself, ask the Holy Spirit to guide you and let you know the truth.

Heb 11:6 says… it is impossible to please God without faith, you can’t have faith if you don’t develop a relationship with the word, you need to nurture that relationship, then you have something to base your faith on. Faith is based on the word of God and the word of God only.

John 15: 7 says… if you abide in me and my words abide in you, you shall ask what you will and it shall be done unto you.

If someone held out a hundred dollar bill as a gift for you, if you didn’t reach out and take it you would not receive it. Healing is not always received, but it always comes… reach out and receive it.

What Jesus did as Lord and savior he did for all people, He did all we would need He finished it all at the cross. If we don’t reach out and take this free gift, we will never have victory over sin, sickness, disease, poverty, and we can not have peace, joy and eternal happiness in Him.

Faith can be found in Gods word, trust in what Jesus did and be led by the holy spirit. Gods favor will be in your life if you do these things.

The only thing Gods wants is your love and trust in him. Let the spirit of God lead you.

More next time on how to keep and maintain your faith and healing.

Love in Christ Jesus,

Bro Andy

LIVING THE VICTORIOUS LIFE




Living the victorious life.
 

People want to believe if they had a lot of money that they would then be what they consider to be victorious.

1st Corr. 15: 57 says… But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. It does not mention money. It doesn’t say… money will bring you victory.

Read 1st John 5: 4... “Whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world, and this is the victory that overcometh the world even our faith.”

We must defeat the evil of this world by trusting Christ to give us the victory. You must stop focusing on a piece of paper with pictures of old men. (Money)

First of all victory is not what you have, but what you know. You can have a lot of money and be very sick with an incurable disease, that is not being victorious.

Read 1st Timothy 6: 10 it is saying, “the love of money is the root of all evil.” To have victory in your life, you must have the favor of God in your life.

To have His favor in your life you need to be operating with the word working in your life. To have the word working in your life, you must hear the word… to hear the word you must open your ears.

Mathew 11: 15 says… “he that hath ears to hear, let him hear”. To understand what you hear, you must believe and trust the one who inspired the Word. The word of God is based on biblical facts.

Knowledge is the accumulation of facts. Understanding is the arrangement of the facts. The Holy Spirit has the ability to place the facts in the right perspective for us.

It is the presence of the Lord in your life that makes you victorious, not money. If you want to see things happen in your life read Mathew 6: 33. “Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you.”

Read John 15: 7 “If you abide in me and My words abide in you, you shall ask what you will and it shall be done unto you.”

If God is with you and you will trust in Him, you will have his favor on your life. That will create a prosperous and victorious life, way beyond you have ever imagined.

If you have need for prayer contact us we will be happy to pray for you.

Be happy, trust God, he still works miracles.

Brother Andy.


THE CENTER OF PROSPERITY

The Center of Prosperity

Third John 1: 2 says; “Beloved, I wish above all things that thou May prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospers .” To be prosperous means to succeed, to be well off, to have favor before you.

Prosperity is more than money and things. Even so, being human these are nice to have. Even if you were wealthy and you become sick with a serious illness it would be hard to think of yourself as being prosperous.

So to be prosperous you need to have three areas working in your life.

1. Your health

2. Your soul

3. And the favor of God in your life.

The sum total of your prosperity is a measurement of the presence of God that is in your life. The presence of God will cause you to be successful. Gods favor on our lives will cause others to favor us.

The key to prosperity is to have a relationship with God through his Son Jesus Christ.

It may be a fact that you are not very well off financially, but God has a way of turning facts around.

By using other Christians, or just regular people, His angels, along with the Holy Spirit He has the ability to turn anything around to what He wills it to be.

Hebrews 11:6 says; “without faith it is impossible to please God.” To please God you must accept Jesus as Lord and Savior. Thus having Faith in the word and in God.

Why? Because at the cross Jesus finished everything that pertained to the human race and them having to make sacrifices and live under the law. He made it possible for everyone on the planet to have what the word promises. There are no other requirements to be blessed.

Stop trying to force God to move on your behalf with your works and performances. Your faith in what Jesus Christ has already done is what moves Gods blessings.

It is the finished work of Jesus, not what we can do as humans. Christianity was never meant to be riddled with a lot of requirements that we have to do to be blessed.

Jesus set us free from requirements and sacrifices. He nailed them to the cross. When you fall back into works and performances it is saying, what Jesus did at the cross was not good enough.

We are living under the period of grace. Grace is Gods unmerited favor on our lives.

Just trust in God and you will be surprised what He will and can do in your life.


If you need prayer, contact us we will add you to our prayer list.


God bless,

Brother Andy

ANGELS UNAWARE

Angels Unaware

As I look around our world today it is hard to recognize it as a safe place to live. I think we can all agree that we need the Lords continual protection: at home, on the job and on the road. For the believers, there are many scriptures promising God can and will protect us.

We can call on angels in the name of the Lord for protection with a simple prayer. The Lord is quick to send his angels to answer our pleas.

Angels are involved in our lives on a personal and practical level. How ever there are things that we do that can offend our angels and will hinder their protection of us.

Angelic messengers are special messengers from God, appointed by God himself. The most common angels are called ministering spirits.

They go forth according to the purposes of God to complete a specific work, task or assignment from the Lord.

Exodus 23:20-23 says… “Behold I send an angel before you to keep you in the way, and to bring you into the place which I have prepared. Be aware of him and obey his voice, do not provoke him for he will not pardon your transgressions, for my name is in him. But if you indeed obey his voice and do all that I speak, then I will be an enemy to your enemies and an adversary to your adversaries, for my angel will go before you.”

There is a special angel. Not a normal fighting angel. This angel was more than a regular angel, this very well could have been Jesus. Jesus seen in his pre-incarnate state as the angel of the Lord.

Negative words or wrong speaking can offend the angels. The angels of the Lord are commissioned to listen to and be obedient to the voice of His word. It is the word of God that moves the angels into action.

I believe that in the same way, man’s disobedience can cause them to with hold their protection.

Unbelief will offend the angels, when you speak unbelief, you are saying what God promised and Christ on the cross wasn’t enough.

Sin offends your angels, when we speak of sin, we think of sexual immorality, stealing, lying, murder and so on. But remember that complaining, criticizing or speaking negative things of the spirit of God is also a sin. Not giving God the glory can offend the angels of the Lord.

Each and every day we should praise God for the gift of the day, and thank him for just being our God. Taking the time to give Him all the glory.

Disobedience to the word can offend your angels. God does not work through disobedience. He works through our obedience to his word and through our faith. When we are sinning and disobedient our angels are silent. They turn their backs away from us with their arms folded and their heads bowed.

Here is what to do if you have sinned and offended your angels… confess your sin and repent. In repentance you turn away from sin and do your best to walk with the Lord daily.

Be quick to forgive others that have wronged you in some way, If you won’t forgive others it puts the Lord in the position of not being able to hear your prayers. We must forgive to get forgiveness.

In the midst of all the things that can go wrong in our daily lives we need our angels to protect us and our family. Which they will do. Call on them In Jesus name… pray, study the word, love God with your whole heart, this is the way to Gods protection.

Live close to the Lord in confidence in these perilous times. He will shower us with His love and protection. Life will be better and full of the joy of the Lord.

God bless

Brother Andy

PUTTING ON THE ARMOR

Putting on the Armor

Lets start our message by reading 2nd Tim 3:1-5.

It is saying… this know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.

The word perilous means being exposed to dangerous days. I think we are in those days now. People are not serving God as they should, they are lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God.

Turning away from the power of God and serving the god of evilness is very dangerous. People are not considering the consequences of that choice.

We do have a loving God and we do have an evil fallen angel that thinks he is god. The problem is this want to be evil being is behind all the mean perilous things that is destroying peoples lives each and every day.

Praise God that we have the authority through what Jesus and Gods word has revealed to us. We have the whole armor of God.

Read, meditate and believe Eph 6:10-17. Apply it your lives, it is your life saver.

First of all you do have an enemy, his name is satin. He is a killer, liar. and deceiver. He simply wants to destroy your life. He really doesn’t want any of us to believe in Jesus.

1st Peter 5:8 says… he is an adversary, a devil seeking whom he may devour. John 10:10 says… he comes for to kill steal and destroy. But I like what the second half of John 10:10 says… I am come that you might have life and have it more abundantly.

The word of God in Eph 6:10-17 lets us know we have the favor of God and the enemy knows that, and he sure doesn’t want you to know it. It starts out telling us to be strong in the Lord and the power of His might. Not the power of your might.

While we are in the flesh with a carnal natural mind this battle we are in is not a physical war, it is spiritual. You can not win this spiritual war on your own. You need wisdom and heavenly power from God through his word and His Holy Spirit to win this battle.

We are fighting against the power of rulers of darkness in this world. The devil and all of his spiritual wickedness. So we as Christians must put on the whole armor of God to defend us in our daily walk. Especially in these perilous times.

Your armor is

1. The helmet of salvation to protect your soul, your way of thinking, your soul is made up of your mind, will and emotion.

2. The breastplate of righteousness it is about girding your self with the truth, it is knowing the truth that sets you free.

3. Shod your feet means prepare your feet with the wisdom of God so as you walk Gods Holy Spirit will direct you and be a light on your pathway.

4. The shield of faith, Hebrews 11:6 says… it is impossible to please God without faith. Faith is about knowing, and believing his word. So with faith you will be able to stop the fiery darts of the devil. The fiery darts are strategies and deceptions he uses to lead us away from our faith and trust in God.

5, The sword of the spirit, which is the true word of God that the Holy spirit puts in your heart to help you through every situation.

Stay close to God and have no fear for Heb. 13:5 says… I will never leave you or forsake you.

2nd Tim 1:7 says… for God hath not given us the spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.

My prayer is that this message will help you in your daily walk. Keep Joy in your heart.

Brother Andy

Power in the Blood

Power in the Blood

Dear readers, I have been asked to comment in our studies on the importance of the blood of Jesus, what it means to mankind and the reason he shed his blood at the cross.

Let me start by saying this: I will never judge anyone as to whether our not they are a believer. My thoughts on this is to give you true bible facts and let you make a choice as to whether or not you want to apply the facts to your life.

I am accountable to God to tell you the facts as His Holy Spirit reveals them to me. If you are not a born again believer some of this study could possibly be uncomfortable. It is certainly not my intention to make you uncomfortable. It is only my intention to tell you the true word of God.

Every person since Adam and Eve sinned in the garden of Eden has been born a sinner in a sinful world. Even so God does not hold them accountable until they have reached the age of accountability, that is to know the difference between right and wrong. Most people reach that age around twelve years of age.

The reason God sent his Son Jesus to earth was to give us a way to have forgiveness of our sins so we could go to heaven. That was impossible under the covenant of Moses. It was impossible to keep all the laws they had been given under the Mosaic law. We had to have a Savior.

Why, you might ask. Because only the pure blood of Jesus could cleanse us of all our sins. His blood cleanses us of all sin, past, present and future.

When you accept Jesus as your savior His pure blood makes you pure enough for the Holy Spirit to come live within you.

Whether or not we admit it, we are all sinners and live in a body of flesh. The flesh is weak and we sin. This weakness in our flesh is why we need Jesus. It is the only way to gain redemption for our sins.

Colossians 1:14 says… in whom we have redemption through His blood, even the forgiveness of sins.

Colossians 1:20 says…and having made peace through the blood of his cross, by Him to reconcile all things unto Himself.

God was pleased to have brought everything on earth and in heaven back to Himself through his son Jesus Christ. If you have not been born again by accepting Jesus as savior, you are separated from God. The blood of Jesus is the only way to God.

Jesus died on the cross so you could come into Gods presence without sin, fault or blame.

There is power in the blood, there is authority in the blood, there is healing in the blood, there is prosperity and the favor of God on your life in the blood of Jesus.

When you pray, plead the blood of Jesus on yourself and your loved ones. The devil can not cross that blood line. Each day and night I plead the Blood of Jesus on my head, heart, mind, body and spirit. When I lay down at night I plead Jesus’ blood on my dreams. There is much power in the Blood. Satan hates it when we plead the blood.

When He was on the cross paying the price for our sins, when the Roman soldier pierced his side and blood and water separated as it poured from his side it was saying separate yourselves from the things of the world and follow me.

Hebrews 10:19 says… there is holiness in the blood of Jesus. I pray that if you are born again you will take this information and continue in Gods Love. If you are not born again I pray you will think about this and make the choice to accept what Christ has made available for you.

Either way God will continue to love you as do I. You can’t be sinful enough for God to give up on you. He will always be waiting for you to come to him.

Please feel free to respond.

THE MORE I PRAY THE WORSE IT GETS

THE MORE I PRAY THE WORSE IT GE

 Most preachers don’t seem to cover the area of prayer much.

I’ve often wondered why, because it is our way to communicate with God and let Him know the desires of our heart.

Hosea 4:6 says… My people are destroyed for the lack of knowledge, so if people don’t read the word, and the preacher doesn’t teach the word, then the people are going to have lack in their life.

I grew up in a small country Baptist Church and bless our pastors heart, I learned how to get saved every week for years… My point? Lack of knowledge

After I was a little older I started reading more and going to full gospel churches and received more wisdom and knowledge of how the word of God works.

When you pray, not only does the God of heaven hear your prayers, but the God of this world (called satan) also hears your prayers.

Satan will do his best to hinder every aspect of your prayer… if you allow it.

This is the time to first, pray to your heavenly Father, in the name of Jesus and tell him what you want, believe that you will receive what you prayed for. Then every day thank Him and be patient.

God has to work through other people a lot of the time, and sometimes it might take a while for your prayer to manifest.

So you ask, the more I pray seems like the worse it gets.

You just woke up the devil and he does not want your prayers to be answered. He will use every weapon in his arsenal to stop the promises and provisions that God has in store for you.

Satan knows that if you are a believer in the Lord Jesus Christ, that God’s blessings, His ability and His favor is for every one of his children.

Satan just doesn’t want you to know it and if he can cause things to go wrong in your life he can get your mind off the manifestation of what you are believing for then he knows he has won.

That is why a lot of times it get’s worse. Instead of hanging in through the rough time in faith, we get over into the world mind set and loose hope

If satan can get you over into the area of hopelessness he will win every time.

Don’t do that, stand up and tell the devil what the word of God says: devil you have been defeated by the blood of Jesus and don’t have the right or authority over the things in my life. I am a child of God.

Be strong in the Lord and the power of His might.

Bless you

I will be looking for your comments…

It's time to make a choice

IT’S TIME TO MAKE THE CHOICE

Read 2nd Tim 3:1-5 He is saying “ this also know in the last days perilous times shall come.

vs. 4 Don’t be High minded lovers of pleasure, more than lovers of God

vs. 5 Having a form of godliness, they will appear to have a godly life. Denying the power thereof, they will not let the power change them”

Only the power of God, through his Holy Spirit, by the blood of the Lamb Jesus Christ, will change a persons life.

The word of God is based on biblical facts. Knowledge is the accumulation of facts. Understanding is the arrangement of the facts.

The Holy Spirit gives us the ability to place biblical facts in the proper perspective.

Gods word is very powerful, we are not living on blind faith, but the foundation of truth. The truth is built on hope through faith, faith has a substance.

Heb. 11:1 says faith is the substance of things hoped for, evidence of things not seen. Believing by faith comes through your supernatural knowledge and wisdom by the Holy Spirit.

One of the reasons we have unbelief is lack of knowledge. If you don’t read the word, you will never have enough knowledge for the Holy Spirit to work with. Every thing from God works through faith and never through unbelief. Abraham didn’t have anymore faith than we do, he just didn’t have the unbelief we have.

Having a form of godliness is destroying America. This god less godliness can cause people to lose hope and confidence in our government, our churches and even in family.

People are hearing different teachings on how to get to heaven, and some even teach there is more than one way to heaven. Which is a false teaching.

America is crumbling from the inside out with corruption and disobedience

We as Christians must start preaching and teaching about the blood of Jesus, and what he did for us at the cross.

We must teach about the new covenant, we are no longer under the law of Moses, the old law. We are under the Blood bought grace of God.

Jesus lived a perfect life, and died a horrible death to pay the price of this new covenant.

Jesus was beat beyond recognition, He took those stripes for our healing.

He was bruised for our iniquities, he shed His blood was for the remission of all our sins; past, present and future.

The crown of thorns, this blood was to cleanse your thoughts of the soul.

When they nailed his hands, it was saying I will bless everything you touch.

When they drove the nails into his feet the blood was saying, I’ll bless every step you take, Just trust what I am doing.

When they pierced His side and the blood and water separated, it was saying separate yourselves from the ways of the world.

Up until the time of Jesus, all the priests were from the tribe of Levi. Jesus was from the tribe of Judah. They would not accept Jesus as a priest and would not believe he was the son of God. To them he was just a carpenters son.

It is time to make a choice, let the spirit of God direct your life and help you keep a word mindset. Or do you think it is better to have a world mindset?

Either way Jesus will still love you.

But can you afford to be wrong?

Be blessed,

Brother Andy

Don't be blindsided by the traditions of man

DON’T BE BLINDSIDED BY THE TRADITIONS OF MAN

Contrary to what some people are saying, there are not many ways to heaven…

Read John 14:6 Jesus is saying, I am the way, the truth and the life, no man cometh unto the father but by me. You don’t have to be a rocket scientist to understand what he is saying

Don’t let yourself be blinded by what people are saying. Some of them don’t have the first idea what the WORD is saying. Jesus is the only way to the Father and heaven.

It is time to teach the truth and to look for the truth, we are about to come face to face with the one who died to save us from the lake of fire, the one who shed his blood to pay for our sins and iniquities. He has made it possible for us to spend eternity with Him.

It is time that we believe what the word of God is saying, that Jesus came to set us free. We can’t live a life of sin and still go to heaven. We can’t forget God and Jesus all week and think it is ok.

In John 10: 10 Jesus is saying I am come that you might have life, and that you might have it more abundantly. Open your heart to the word, so that you might know what the word of God is saying. That is where your abundance is. That is how to obtain all that heaven has to offer to you.

John 10: 27 says, “my sheep (people) hear my voice and I know them, and they follow me.”

Verse 28 says “and I give them eternal life and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.”

Because of Adams sin in the garden of Eden we were lost to the world, we were separated from God, we had lost our connection to him. We needed a savior and Jesus Christ was the one who came to save us. To go to heaven you must believe that Jesus is your savior.

Heaven is a real place, hell is a real place. God our creator is real. His son Jesus real, and what he did at Calvary made it possible for us to be heirs to the throne. Children of God.

We can’t keep living sinful lives and expect God to turn his head. He won’t. We must repent and live a Christ like walk.

It is getting close to the time of Jesus’ return. We must be ready. Stay prayed up and keep watching for Him. Keep in His word. Let Him know daily you love Him and are trying to live right for Him.

In His love,

Brother Andy.

The perils of unbelief

THE PERILS OF UNBELIEF

Read Eph. 2:2 It is saying here that all of us have followed the ways of this present world, and it’s spiritual ruler. This ruler continues to work in people who refuse to obey God.

We follow the desires of our corrupt nature, and we do what our nature desires. Even though in Gods mercy and his great love for us, he gave us life together with Christ and has given us a position in heaven with Him. God saved us through faith as an act of kindness, being saved is a gift from God.

Eph. 2: 8 says we are saved by grace. That grace is free. Accessed by faith and only by faith, and it only comes through Jesus Christ.

Heb 11: 1 is saying “now faith is the substance of things hoped for, The evidence of things not seen.” Faith is a substance that produces a reality of things hoped for, through righteousness by the word of God and through the wisdom of the Holy Spirit.

Rom 8:28 says… and we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are called according to his purpose. It takes faith to make all things work.

2nd Peter 1: 1 says… we obtain precious faith through righteousness of God and our savior Jesus Christ.

Rom 12 :13 goes on to say, according as God has delt to every man the measure of faith. Lack of faith is not the reason most people don’t receive the manifestation of God, it is the unbelief of the word and the will of God. Get rid of the unbelief and faith will work.

The presence of unbelief will always short circuit your measure of faith. If you overload the electrical circuit breakers in your house, it will stop the flow of power to your lights.

When you apply unbelief to your faith just like the circuit breaker, it will stop the measure of faith in your life. The measure of faith never leaves a Christian.

So you ask, how do I deal with unbelief. How many times have you believed and still there was a struggle going on inside of you.

Remember you can’t be tempted with anything without thinking about it. The battle with Christians is in the mind and having thoughts of doing wrong things.

It is not in the realm of the Holy Spirit, don’t let outside reports distract you from where you are going, don’t let the spirit of fear determine or dominate your life.

Unbelief comes in different ways, it comes from not knowing, because of wrong teachings. it also comes from your natural senses, like what you see or what you think and what you are focused on.

You need to know they are wrong and reject them from your thoughts. The way to know what God wants is to stay in His Word all the answers are there in the Word. Seek Him out. Choose God and not the traditions of man.

The Lord bless you,

Brother Andy

TO RECEIVE IS TO BELIEVE

TO RECEIVE IS TO BELIEVE

Read John 15 : 7 If you abide in me and my words abide in you, you shall ask what you will, and it shall be done unto you.

Abide means to believe and continue in God’s word. So many times people, even Christians will put all their effort into trying to figure out how to receive all the blessings God has for them.

When Jesus died at the cross, and said it is finished. What he was trying to get across to us was that he had taken care of our sins with his shed blood, he had taken care of our sickness and diseases by his stripes.

By going to the pit of hell as a guarantee to made available a new covenant so you could have life abundantly and access all heaven has to offer.

Problem is not what Jesus did but rather what we believe and abide in, or trust in. Even though Jesus has made everything available to us, if we don’t reach out and take it we will never have it.

The way to receive the things of God is through faith in the righteousness of God.

Mathew 6: 33 is telling us to seek first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you.

2nd Corinthians 5: 7 says we walk by faith and not by sight. To many of us live by what we see and not by faith.

Hebrews 11:6 says… but without faith it is impossible to please God. God is a rewarder to those who seek him.

The problem is a lot of people (Christians included) keep trying to do and get things under their own strength, thinking with carnal minds, instead of trusting the Holy Spirit to lead us in the ways of the Lord.

God loves us and has made available all that heaven has to offer. As believers and children of God you have a right to receive it. We must go by what the word says in order to receive.

Romans 8: 14 says…. For many as are led by the spirit of God, they are the sons and daughters of God.

Romans 8: 17 and if children then heirs, heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ Jesus. We are not throw away people, we are the Holy Spirit, anointed children of God and heirs to His kingdom.

Don’t be deceived by the devil and what people say, you are a Kings kid, stand up and act like it. Get up every day and say… I am the righteousness of God, and no weapon formed against me will prosper.

Be blessed in the Lord,

Brother Andy
LIVING A BLESSED LIFE

Even in life today, you can live a very good, prosperous and happy life.

As you read these next few words, take a deep breath, relax and let the words penetrate your very soul.

I am teaching today on Gods grace and why Christians are not receiving all the blessings they are entitled to.

Before the cross, the people, mostly the Jewish, lived under the law of Moses. It is known as the ten commandments, they also lived under thousands of other laws,

Mankind could not keep all the Laws. God designed the laws to show people they needed a savior.

First of all the old covenant, the law of Moses, was never intended for the gentiles, It was for the Jewish people.

The new covenant started at the cross, When Jesus died and said “it is finished” all mankind had access to all the provisions God had for mankind. It was designed to be gotten through His son, Jesus Christ.

The grace of God and His love for you is nearly too good to be true, it is a gospel that is over the top. The new covenant of grace leads us out of the covenant of the Law.

The only thing God asks us to do is love His Son enough to accept what he did at the cross.

You might say, well you don’t know all the wrong I have done in my life.

How can God love someone like me. Well did he love David or Moses or even Paul, these three people wrote almost all the bible and all three were murderers.

Just because you have missed the mark a few times does not mean God stopped loving you.

You can’t do enough bad to make God stop loving you, and you can’t do enough good to make Him love you more. God loves you in spite of anything you can do.

One of the problems of today is even Christians get over into the Law of Moses and try to do good works to gain favor with God.

When you get over into the old covenant of the law, you step out from the new covenant of grace, and the blessings will stop.

Why do they stop, because you are leaving God out of the picture and trying to do things in your own power. He can’t bless you if you try to live under the old covenant.

Religion teaches that you go to hell because of your sin, and people don’t realize that Jesus died and took our sin. Past, present and future, and they, (sins) are cast away, but that is another message.

If you want to be blessed and have Gods favor on your life, do this, start by accepting Jesus as Lord of your life. When you do that the Holy Spirit will seal your spirit .

He will lead you and release all the secret things unto you and reveal Gods word into your spirit.

Only one sin will keep you out of heaven. Not accepting Jesus as Lord and savior. It won’t be because you missed the mark a few times and sinned.

Keep tuned into me on the web

God bless
