We are lost among the multitude and so badly want to be seen, so we introduce ourselves as, "I am ___." Identity is important for a person, and that is something that will be agreed on over many spectrums of opinions. Now, I am not writing for children, so I can leave this on the "meatier" side of things. Identity is whatever you can fill in behind the "I am" statement. Some of it may be true and obvious, but some open for interpretation and others still complete fabrications. The greater question to ask is this: "Who do I say I am to myself." That is where a lie can cause the most damage. Because a person with a false handle or an undefined title w...

2023-06-30 | I want to show you Something

Today I am foregoing the usual order of the blog a little, see this as somewhat of an introduction for today. The LORD brought me back to add this in, so you may understand. At this point, I have already received the word for the day, but GOD wanted me to present it to you in a certain way today. You know, sometimes GOD says to us, "I want to show you something." But, because we know about GOD and all that He has done in the past, we can be reluctant. So, GOD says, "walk, go to that mountain" and we walk to it (well, today most of us today will probably pray and ask, "GOD, is it okay if I drive there?") So, we get to the mountain and GOD says, "climb it" We start climbing if we are obedient, but maybe there is still this opinion that nags us, "do you really want to climb a mountain?" or "are you sure this is w...

Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase?  2 By no means! We are those who have died to sin; how can we live in it any longer?  3 Or don’t you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?  4 We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life. 5 For if we have been united with him in a death like his, we will certainly also be united with him in a resurrection like his.  6 For we know that our old self was crucified with him so that the body ruled by sin might be done away with, 6:6  Or  be rendered powerless  that we should no longe...

2023-06-28 | Nature of things

What can you safely assume until a matter is proved? Yes, that there is good and evil in all human beings, for they are the children of Adam and Eve, who sampled from the tree. If a man tells you something you cannot simply trust that it is good. You must test it, what is in the spirit of it? Yea, just as Ham laid with whom he should not have; and the curse fell to Canaan; so the land of the cursed was given to who was blessed. Just as Ahab was seen in his sin; when he humbled himself and was shown mercy; how much more are those that are seen in the Righteousness of My Son? For it is an act of humility to lay yourself subject to another. You see; all is already written. The prophet today can only confirm that which is already written; unless he is shown that which have not be...
