HAVING DONE ALL TO STAND!

 

HAVING DONE ALL TO STAND!

 

Ephesians 6:13-14   ¹³ Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

¹⁴ Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;

Because of the circumstances of what we are facing today, is referring to the resisting and opposing of the powers of darkness. We must stand, because as a believer we are not to give an inch. There is no plan B, there is no other option.

I’m going to try to explain what is happening in our nation. There are leaders in our government, some moral, others govern by evil, evil spirits are working in them to do their evil deeds.

Their god is not the God of the believer, it is a demonic god called Satan. He is the one influencing these leaders. As long as they follow him there will be chaos.

Matthew 6:24   ²⁴ No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

The problem is the lust for money and power. I don’t judge these people because honestly, they don’t have a clue what the end is, most of them are old. God the Father will judge them.

This is what Jesus was talking about. You can’t serve two masters. The word mammon means money. Money is not evil; the love of money is the root of evil.

Hosea 4:6   ⁶ My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.

Spiritual wisdom, knowledge, understanding and discerning only come from God through the Holy Spirit. Gods wisdom is a wisdom that doesn’t belong to this world or to the rulers of this world.

1 Corinthians 2:7   ⁷ But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory:

Gods wisdom leads sinful men to the great sacrifice, the offering up of Jesus on the cross which paid the terrible sin debt of man and all who will believe.

I won’t say these people in government that are getting ready to rip the American way of life from us are not saved, however, I will say I don’t know a Holy Spirit filled person of God that wants a government that operates on a socialist platform.

This insanity and demonic thinking is coming from a people you don’t want to socialize with.

1 Corinthians 1:19   ¹⁹ For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.

In other words, God will reject the intelligence of the intelligent people and of this world system. If you only have worldly wisdom, your foundation will crumble. Your foundation must be framed on the inspired word of God, just as our constitution was.

Psalms 15:5   ⁵ He that putteth not out his money to usury, nor taketh reward against the innocent. He that doeth these things shall never be moved.

We were not purchased with such corruptible things as silver and gold but the precious blood of Christ Jesus.

Psalms 55:22   ²² Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.

This should be a tremendous encouragement to all true believers. Give your burdens to the Lord and leave them there.

Psalms 62:6   ⁶ He only is my rock and my salvation: he is my defence; I shall not be moved.

Once again, the word is used only concerning his Rock which is Gods salvation, I shall not be moved.

Psalms 66:9   ⁹ Which holdeth our soul in life, and suffereth not our feet to be moved.

Holding our soul in life means the preserving of our salvation. Our feet not to be moves refers to having on the whole armor of God with which we are able to stand against all the fiery darts of the wicked.

Psalms 121:3   ³ He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.

As long as our foot is anchored on the path of His word, he will see to it that nothing can move it off.

Hebrews 12:28   ²⁸ Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:

This is referring to our entrance into the kingdom of God. all was made possible by the cross, and Jesus, and the means by which we obtain grace.

By staying in the word of God we can declare, I shall not be moved.

Here is affirmation of Gods eternal vigilance for his people, the believers. The danger could be great if God does not intervene in the dangerous days ahead. The ruin of America could be inevitable, Satan has already got his evil grip on our country.

Matthew 7:14   ¹⁴ Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

Jesus consistently teaches the difficulty of following Him. There are two roads: one is to follow Him. The second is to follow the world. We still have two choices, if God the Father decides to send Jesus to rapture the church, His people, then the chance of having a choice is gone.

Matthew 7:21   ²¹ Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.

²² Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?

²³ And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

Without a personal relationship with Christ Jesus, religious words and religious ways that is attending church, performing good works have no value. It is in our personal relationship with Jesus, or Jesus will say to you I never knew you. These are words you do not want to hear. If you are ready to have a personal relationship with Jesus pray this prayer. Jesus, I recognize you as my savior, I want you to come into my heart and my life. Live in me and lead me daily with your Holy Spirit. Amen

Until next week,

Stay in the word.
