Serving God in Spirit, and Truth, Abiding with the Beatitude, Bearing all the Fruits of the Spirit, Living a honest, to goodness Christian life takes commitment, and self sacrifice, and without the help of the Holy Spirit it is impossible. Please take your time and read the promise of Jesus before he went back to Heaven, as quoted from the KJV of the Bible, you will be blessed. Remember my sisters, and brothers, with God, we cannot fake it, hoping that we will make it into the Kingdom of Heaven. John 14:15-27, THE PROMISE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, reads " If ye love me, keep my commandments. And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you." verse 18, " I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you. Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also. At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you, He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him." Verse 22, " Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world? Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and he will come unto him, and make our abode with him. He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but my Father's which sent me." Verse 25, " These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you. But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. Peace I leave you, my peace I give unto you: Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid." In Matthew 5:2-12 Jesus taught the multitude saying, " Blessed are are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted. Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God. Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God. Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you." In Galatians 5: 22-26, We are taught the fruit of the Spirit, and be encouraged to live, and walk in it. " But the fruit of the Spirit is love, Joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walked in the Spirit. Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another," My brothers, and sisters in Christ, we cannot fake it, hoping that we are going to make it into God's glorious Heaven where there are no sins. We have to be totally dependent on the Holy Spirit for our spiritual sustenance, and care. =In Matthew 7:13-14, we are instructed very eloquently of the two ways of life, which is resting on the foundation of good, and evil, or positive, and negative so we have the privilege to choose our lives journey, it reads. " Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it." All the worldly fun, and excitements on this planet are through the broad gate, but often lead to pain, shame, and dying in sin. Many are choosing that way because of the skillful influences of the enemy of God, who is trying to keep as many as he can out of heaven. All Satan's temptations look nice, feasible, exciting, a mouth full, enticing for the perfect enjoyment up front, but the end result after being twisted up into his evil web, and experiencing the quick sand feeling of no escape, for so many the end is total destruction. =Let us be real, the narrow gate way that leads to eternal life is also before us, and it is not in our own individual strength to stay the course. We have to be totally dependent on the Holy Spirit to hold our hands, and lead us through the many traps, the enemy often laid in our path as God' people. We have to put on the whole armor of Jesus Christ righteousness, and ignore all the glitter, perfumes, sinful excitements, lust of the flesh, adultery, fornication, and all the other works of the flesh that are explain in Galatians 5:19-21 which reads, " Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God." Again, my sisters, and brothers in Jesus Christ which are all under the care, guidance of the Holy Spirit. Please, let us stand firm in our faith in God, knowing that He truly loves us, and will not forsake us as Jesus promise. Resist the devil, and he will flee with the help of the Holy Spirit, don't look twice at something that look really nice, and allow the enticing seed to grow out of control, be real, and admit that, IT IS EASIER SAID THAN DONE, but we can do it with the help of God Holy Spirit in Jesus name, AMEN. TO GOD BE THE GLORY FOREVER. Because God as the Bible explain is a Spirit, the humans also woulD need a spiritual component for that connection with him, and to be able to worship him in spirit and truth. The Bible is therefore not asking humans to do the impossible. The spiritual mechanism is not seen, it is within every humans, and like so many other inner functioning within our body that we does not pay much attention to, but they are there. Think of Electricity, we cannot see the physical movement of the electrons, but we see the result of their forced works. We know it is there and we enjoy the benefits of it, and it will also shock you even to death if you allow yourself to touch it the wrong way. Even if your circumstance may not allow you go to a church building as often as you would wish, it does not mean that you cannot give your heart to Jesus, and allow the Holy Spirit to guide the inner spirit person in you, or do not think that you will not be able to go to Heaven if when Jesus return, and you are not in a physical church building. God sees every one's heart, wherever we are, even those that are in church every Sunday but in their hearts, they are not real with God, John 4:24, that is why Jesus spoke about is return, and the separation of the sheep, and the goats in Matthew 25:31-46. There are no form of human intelligence on our planet earth, that is located in the Milky Way Galaxy that can use phycology on God, if our heart is not in what each of us do or say, God knows what we are thinking even before we speak. That is why we have to be real with, and before our Creator. We have to humble ourselves before him, and serve Him in spirit, and truth, John 4:24. please email us at, kdlministry3@yahool.com * We read everyone's questions, and comments, and respond to each one individually, thank you - God bless. |
