Thoughts on marble


Things have happened since my last post, and i've wondered within myself: How is it that we, believers, have fallen into such decadent state? I took a look at The Word and my wondering landed me in acts 20:7-11 or so. Here i read a story about a certain young man, eutichus by name, who fell asleep while Paul was peraching in Troas and fell from the third floor window where hw was supposed to be feasting on the Word. I had an enlightenment here that satisfied my wandering thoughts. Many believers today are like eutichus in the body of Christ, sleeping instead of occupying or gettin busy for the Lord.
I do not know if this generation is ready for the move of God that will usher in the rapture. Complacence is at an all time high with different kinds of christianity on parade. Believers are now more focused on their personal security then on the things of the Spirit. What happened to the command given to the body of Christ through the apostle Jude saying that we should contend for the faith that was originally handed to the saints by the apostles? We are contending for our private agendas, setting divine purpose on the fire of perversion.
How long shall we continue in this life of compromise? No soldier ad gladium has time to mix everyday life with warfare, so the scriptures tells us. Our warfare in this season is not about pulling down and destroying stuff, it is about recovery of all who are supposed to be in the camp of the Lord, but have fallen into a state of complacency after the order of eutichus consequently finding themselves in the camp of the enemy.
In case you are still wondering why believers are in such dilema about life and the enemy? How many believers are walking in the reality of scriptures? The church today is reduced to a caricature, with a shadow of the original form and a supersaturation of men's wisdom and the wisdom of this world. By our slumber, we have ceeded authority to the enemy who now controls us, afflicts us and oppresses us as though we are without dominion. If we are to take the world for God we have to wake up. The end time army is on a carnival instead of on the battle field contending for the faith, fighting the good fight of faith. Now this fight is not a physical one but a spiritual one.
Christ is sending warning waves to His church. This article is one of them. Ninety-ninie and a half is not enough for God, he will not lower His standards for any noe, not me, not you! Wake up and get busy about the Father's business.

The Grace of Our Lord Jesus, the love of God and communion with the Spirit

On the Grace of our Lord, the Father's love and the communion of the Spirit in the life of the Believer. 2Cor 13:14 is a portion of Scripture quoted so often in church that the mention of it brings closing of service or benediction to mind. In this portion of Scripture which indeed is a prayer, is hidden an eternally powerful truth. It is my confidence that the Spirit of God by the will of God will shed light on our spirits as we seek the light of this truth, embrace it and apply it daily in our walk with God. It says "the Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Love of God and the sweet fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all". What a prayer! First it is seen in this prayer, THE WORD, THE FATHER and THE SPIRIT. Once upon a time, in the beginning of time, there was a convocation and in that meeting, Elohim, was there with The Logos and His Pneuma, and the result was creation. What if there is a creative mystery embedded in this prayer in the life of a believer? What ...

A case for Heavenly Mindedness.

It is often said "do not be so heavenly conscious that you become earthly useless" but I say unto you, the man who is conscious of eternity as he ought cannot and will not be earthly useless. His heart will be set on pleasing God and that means obeying God's every instruction on his life. There is no man who has so lives that turns out useless to his world and generation. Jesus didn't turn out that way nor did the apostles and every other saint whose names we mention and whose works we reference. Their contributions derived from inspiration that flowed from their following God faithfully is the light we now shine for the next generation. This systematic secularization of the church is what is standing between men and their eternal destines on the earth. We complain we do not have devoted men serving God but we preach that men should balance spirituality and secularism. It is not so in God’s word. You cannot serve two masters. You are either following God or you are f...

On Fear, Doubt and Unbelief

Faith is central in the Christian life. The bible says in Heb 11:6 that it is impossible to please God without faith. Pleasing Him is being accepted of Him. This means that though the sinner has been vindicated by the blood of Jesus, his believing in that sacrifice and its efficacy in his favor, makes him acceptable to God. His faith pleases God. The righteousness of God imputed to man in Christ by faith is how we please God. Scripture also says that this man who has so pleased God should live by the same means by which he pleased God (Hab 2:4; Rom 1:17; Gal 3:11; Heb 10:38). Col 2:6 says that we must continue our walk in Christ AS as we received Him (in the first place). You have pleased God. Your faith in the sacrifice of the Lamb and in the work of redemption  and all it represents for you, has made you "...accepted in the beloved" (Eph 1:6). You maintain this state of favor with God by living in the consciousness of it. This is living BY FAITH.   In our faith life how...
