Honour

What a blessing it is to know that the Lord is there watching us, hearing us and walking with us every time we call onto him. God never lets us go. And for this we must give thanks and praise his name.
As to our own parents who brought us into this world in flesh, it is written...Honour thy father and mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord they God giveth me. And again in Matthew 19:19...Honour thy father and thy mother.
How said it is too see that the new generation takes their parents for granted. They do not honour there fathers or mothers, or they do not honour neither parent.
In society where a large percentage of the population are raised by single mothers and fathers is hard to believe. Children in those families just want, want, want and the parent gives into him or her, as they feel guilty if they do not. But what the sad thing about this is, is the parents have lost control, the child no longer honours them, never gives them a card or a present of thanks. They care too much for themselves than of their own mother and father.
Of course there are children born into this world who have lost both parents, or one parent through death. But there are a large percentage of children being cared for by one parent and step parents. Where honouring one's parents no longer matters as long as the child has everything he or she wants.
There is an unfortunate story of a child who was conceived not out of love, but as an object for money. The mother as soon as the child was born left the father, they were unmarried so divorce wasn't the problem.
The mother raised that child alone and denied the father access, the child knew who the father was by name, denied him and only ever got in touch for MONEY.
Later it came to light the mother had many lovers, subjected her child to abuse, neglected her education. The child 16 years later taken into foster care does not know anything except what her mother taught, and that was respect and honour nothing.
This sad story breaks my heart to hear how children have become and becoming. One has to just look at the way children are in the streets, the way they talk to their parents. It is like they have been doctrined into evil, and see it as a way of life to have an evil heart.
The same can be said for many children in the Middle East who are seen as Martyrs if they attach a bomb to themselves and blow up non Islamic believers, thinking in the process they are honouring their mother and father in the name of Jihad.
Yet in Ephesians 6:1-2 KJV...
CHILDREN OBEY YOUR PARENTS IN THE LORD: FOR THIS IS RIGHT.
HONOUR THY FATHER AND MOTHER:(which is the first commandment with promise;)
But however a large number of children in today's society are born out of all things contrary to what God wants, for it is written in Galatians 5:17-22...
For the flesh lusteth against the spirit, and the spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.
But if ye be led of the spirit, ye are not under the law.
Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, Fornication, Uncleanness, Lasciviousness, Idoltary, Witchcraft, Hatred, Variance, Emulations, Wrath, Strife, Sedition's, 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.
But the fruit of the spirit is LOVE, JOY, PEACE, LONG SUFFERING, GENTLENESS, GOODNESS, FAITH.
God wants us to love and honour our parents and one another. But those born out of God's plan which is LOVE, JOY, PEACE, LONG SUFFERING, GENTLENESS, GOODNESS, and FAITH are victims of the devil, and as a result will not inherit the kingdom of God.
As it is written in Galatians 6:6-8 KJV...
let him that is taught in the word communicate unto him that teacheth in all good things.
Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for what so ever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
For he that soweth to his flesh, shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the spirit shall of the spirit reap life everlasting.
The longer I live to see how generation by generation falling away from the grace and love of God, and by denying his son Jesus. The more I see a world full of evil, a world where the good will be persecuted until the time of the end.
However Jesus has warned of this time in Matthew 23:33-39 KJV where we who are servants of God will be persecuted as it is written...
Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation's of Hell? Wherefore, behold I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and some of them ye shalt kill and crucify: and some of them ye shall scourge in your synagogues and persecute them from city to city.
That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of Zach-a-rias, son of Bar-a-chias, whom ye slew between the temple and the alter.
Verily I say unto you, all these things shall come upon this generation.
O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings and ye would not!
Behold your house is left unto you desolate. For I say unto you. Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.
What an honour it is to have one true God that so loves us that he sent his only son to save us so that we all have the opportunity to be saved and become like Jesus, one of his children.
This is God's plan.
However those born out of the devils plan can still have life with God by allowing God to take control through repentance, accepting and believing in all that his only son Jesus did so that we can have eternal life.
As it is a generation to come that will see the Lord. Who are you going to honour?

The Sabbath

Another beautiful day in the Glory of God, as he blesses everyone of us with his presence.
Oh how great you are Lord, God our father who watches over us and watches everything we do.
But the Lord asks just one thing of us, and that is...Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work; but the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: for in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that, in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day and hallowed it.
And again this is reiterated throughout the new testament, in Matthew 24:20, Mark 2:27-28, Hebrews 4:4, 9-10, and Colossians 1:16 KJV...
Pray ye that your flight be not in winter, neither on the sabbath day. The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath: therefore the son of man is Lord also of the sabbath. For he spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all his works.
There remaineth therefore a keeping of a sabbath to the people of God. For he that is entered unto his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his. For by him were all things created, that are in heaven and that are in earth.
However during the later part of the 20Th century, the idea of keeping the Sunday a holy day, where by everything is closed seems now to be a distant memory.
The Devil wants us to go shopping on Sunday, large companies, big co-operations want to continue operating on a Sunday. So they tempt the workers giving them more money to work on the day God has made holy.
The Devil doesn't want us to worship God and keep this day a holy day for him. The Devil wants to open the doors and allow man to continue his greed and materialistic ways of the world.
In some ways I am pleased that I live in France as the country in a small way still observes the sabbath day as a holy day, ordered by the Pope in which the cardinals writes the following question and answer in their literature.
(Q) Have you any other ways of proving that the church has power to institute festivals of
precept?
(A) Had she not such power...she could not have substituted the observance of Sunday, the
first day of the week, for Saturday, the seventh day, a change for which there is no
scriptual authority.
Yet despite this we are all breaking the law of God as we worship him on the first day Sunday and not the Saturday. This is classed as Heresy, precept upon precept.
Daniel 7:25 KJV...
And he shall speak great words against the most high, and shall wear out the saints of the most high, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given unto his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.
It is here that we can clearly see the Pope is the one Daniel is referring too. Who else has authority over all the catholic churches in Europe and the whole world. It is the Pope.
Jesus warns us of false prophets and false witnesses, as in Matthew 24:11...
And many false prophets shall rise and deceive many.
The catholic church is one of many that Jesus makes reference too. It has a bible that is different from the holy bible which is the word of God. Jesus warns us again in,
II Thessalonians 2:3-4...
And that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition.
Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped: So that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.
This is the clever work of the Devil, allowing a human being like you and I change the day of the sabbath, to dictate the catholic way of life and even persecute those who do not obey.
Because those who were persecuted know the truth as it is written in 1 Thessalonians 1:5-6...
For our Gospel came not unto you in word only, but also in power, and in much assurance; as ye know what manner of men we were among you for your sake.
And ye became followers of us, and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction with Joy of the Holy Ghost.
So who are you going to believe, a man who is like you and I of sin, heresy and lies, or the Gospel of truth and of the Holy Spirit that brings and fills our hearts with joy, peace and love for all that God is, and the things God created?
The choices are yours, but I pray that you will follow and make the right choice, because Jesus reminds us in Matthew 7:21-23...
Not everyone 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.
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?
And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
And it is revealed to us in 1 Thessalonians 1:7-9...
When the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from the heaven with his mighty angels,
In flaming fire taking vengeance on that that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:
Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord and away from the glory of his power.

Blasphemy

The glory of God can be felt today as the heat of the sun comes down with a smile. Yet people will not look upon this as a blessing from God, but look to the sun's heat and say...'J thanks God I can have a great tan now', and then wonder why they are burnt by the sun.
As God says first to Moses...
Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
And again it is recorded in 1 Timothy 6:1 KJV...
That the name of God and his doctrine be not blasphemed.
Therefore in the sentence 'J thanks God I can have a great tan now.' Is seen as using God's name in vain, and this is happening everyday.
People blame God for all the troubles in their lives. They cry out Why God, Why have you done this? Not asking him truly, sincerely and faithfully for the Lord to reply to discipline and to help you in your walk with me.
But they ask God with anger and full of bitterness. Not in love, and for this God does not reply. But only the Devil and his demon followers who tempt these people continuously away from God causing more pain and suffering.
The evidence speaks for itself in both the world and in the personal lives of the unsaved. It is not God that causes this but man's continual defiance to turn to him and accept the truth.
Hence why they blaspheme and use his name in vain, because this is what the Devil wants.

Idolistic and Material world

Spring is one of the most glorious seasons of the year, It is this season which reminds me of how God really takes living things from looking like they are dead to becoming alive with colour, radiance and full of bloom.
But sadly as time goes by, people are no longer look at this season and thank the Lord for all his glory. Their eyes and minds have become closed to this.
As God says to Moses...
Thou shalt not make unto thee any craven image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: For I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; and shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
God also reiterates this statement both in 1 John 5:21, and Acts 17:29...
Little children, keep yourselves from idols. For as much then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the God head is like unto gold or silver, or stone, graven by art and man's device.
How many of you as children fell fowl to following your favourite band or artist? I can tell you that there isn't a person on this earth that has not ever done that. It may not necessarily be an artist in a form of a musician, it could be an actress or even everyday things like cars, computers, houses or buying the latest technology, or looking at someone wishing you could be like them.
In other words loving material things and people more than God. Some Christians would say I love God he is my idol. Jesus is my saviour, yet they also have the love of money and what money can buy.
They would rather be rich than poor. So how can they be deemed as saying I love God and only God; and all that God is. Yet in their prays, I must have that house, I must have that car, I must buy that latest gadget. I must be better and more powerful than thy neighbour.
Excuse me, hang on. These people on Sunday will praise the Lord, preach the gospel, and say thank you for saving my life Jesus, I love you, oh Lord. But in their hearts I have new the truth is written.
A man who has nothing who comes to believe and accept Jesus as his or her saviour truly loves God and everything he stands for and worships only him. They see when they get a job a blessing not, I must get a job to have a nice holiday, a luxury car, get a handful of doe to give to the church, because they feel that by giving on Sunday it will ease them. And release them from the guilt of not worshipping God and only God 100% and putting him and his son Jesus above all other things.
When non believers read and see how wealthy these men and women of God as some of them profess to be are, it puts them off. They tell me how can we accept Jesus as our Lord and saviour and believe in him when the so called me of God, all they can address is money in their sermons and worldly things, professing the word of the Lord by saying give totally one self into Jesus, believe in him and he will reward you with riches.
They forget the point riches means eternal life, they make it known as riches being, a better paid job, a bigger car etc.
And when these things do not materialise then people become disillusioned and turn away from God. It just makes me so sick, that I didn't become a born again christian to be better off in this world. I became born again to live my live like Jesus did without fault and love for all things God created not those in which man has created.
As Jesus tells us in John 14:1-2 KJV...
Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
In my fathers house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
Jesus is not talking about a mansion on earth, but a mansion that God has built in heaven for all that receive him. By receiving is accepting and becoming like Jesus. Jesus never profited on earth, as he says in John 12:49-50 KJV...
For I have not spoken of myself: but the father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak.
And I know that his commandment is life everlasting: what so ever I speak therefore, even as the father said unto me, so I speak.
Jesus knows that all of us humans who speak of him and the Lord God but do not profit from this, will have everlasting life.
What I mean by profiting is becoming rich on earth, loving the worldly things that man has made rather than that of God and God's creation.
As Paul went and preached the gospel the true word of God, he told the crowd of people who gathered at Mars hill in Athens...
Ye men of Athens I perceive that in all things ye are too superstitious.
For as I passed by, and beheld your devotions I found an alter with this inscription, TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Whom therefore ye ignorantly worship, him declare I unto you.
God made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands.
(Acts 17:22-24 KJV)
Therefore if one does all these things that have been mentioned then he has just fallen fowl of God, but living with the Devil and his followers. Whom as told throughout the Bible can pose as an angel of light, preaching false doctrine, and earning big sums of money in the process. In order to tempt people away from following and worshipping God our creator of all living things.
In 1 Thessalonians 4:14-18 KJV...
For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.
For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.
For the Lord himself shall descent from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

One True and only God

The sun re-appearing high in the sky reminds me of how great God is, marvellous and full of love and grace for all living things here on earth.
However on the day God spoke to Moses...Thou shalt have no other Gods before me. God could see clearly how the Devil would persuade and tempt people away from this law, as in Matthew 4:10 it is written again (KJV)...Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God and him only shalt thou serve.
The Devil continues to manipulate and turn people away from worshipping God, and from believing in Lord Jesus Christ, its happening around us. If you asked your friend, Do you believe in Lord Jesus Christ? They would answer yeah an old figure from history.
The Devil blinds people from accepting God's word, he cleverly tempts them away from truly believing along with his gang of demons.
There are people that are so wealthy that they love money more than God. And there are those that are so poor they are being blinded from accepting God's love and his hand. They stubbornly refuse to turn to him and ask God for help. Because the Devils gang of fallen angels ensures they continue to live in misery.
The world politicians do not want us to worship God in the way that God wants. Some politicians even think they are God by making false promises that never come to fruition when they are elected.
One such politician remaining nameless promised on improving education with the slogan Education, Education, Education.
But the reality sadly is the standards of education have fallen and religious instruction is falling as well in all private and public sector schools/
Gone are the days where songs were sung in assembly to worship God, and only the bible was taught in schools with teaching's on how to pray and to accpet Jesus God's only son and saviour.
If schools continued to do this, then the politically correct and heretic people would take offense as it is not allowing our children to learn about other religions.
Therefore worshipping God and only God and the true Gospel has been taken out of our institutions.
Thus resulting in only victory for the heretics and the followers of Satan. This is what Satan wants to turn children away from God and become a worshipper of false gods, toys and money rather than taught to worship God and his word.
The effects of these heretics is now being felt across society as more and more people turn away from the truth...
Perverse disputing's of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself. ( 1Timothy 6:5 KJV)
But those of us who worship God and only God have been shown in 1 Thessalonians 5:2-3 KJV...
For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.
For when they shall say, peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.
In other words those people who continue to worship other Gods, God will destroy. Yet when that time comes we are who truly believe and worship God only and believe that his son Jesus Christ at his baptism had all our sins where placed upon him then crucified for them, will be saved and protected from the destruction which is soon to befall upon the earth.

Law of God

Watching the dark clouds soring over the garden makes me realise just how angry God really is.
God has saved man on many occasions throughout our history. The very first being with the flood during the time of Noah.
Yet this has not distinguished the desires of an evil heart and the tempations of the Devil, even after the death of Jesus Christ God'd only son.
However what is evil in the eyes of God our father?
God revealed this verbally to Moses...
I am the Lord thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
Thou shalt not make unto thee any craven image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the water under the earth:
Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;
And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandements.
Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for thy Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
But the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy amnservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:
For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day and hallowed it.
Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.
Thou shalt not kill
Thou shalt not commit adultery
Thou shalt not steal
Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour
Thou shalt not covet thy neighbours house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbours wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor the ox, nor his ass, nor anything that is thy neighbours.
(Exodus 20:1-17 KJV)
What God has spoken to Moses about is his law, and his law alone which are better known as the ten commandements.

Temptation

The Serpent glad in what Adam and Eve had done, began to rejoice along with the fallen angels cast out of heaven and onto the earth.

God says to the Serpent...

Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life.

(Genesis 3:14 KJV)

However despite God being angry, God also showed his love as he fully clothed Adam and Eve, making coats out of animal skins. And God says...

Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live forever:

Therefore the Lord God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground whence he was taken.

So he drove out of man; and he placed at the east of the garden the Cheru-bims and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.

(Genesis 3:22-24 KJV)

Wow this is eye opening stuff to keep the tree of life both good and evil. But one can see after Adam and Eve were thrown out of the garden of Eden they began to produce children, and their children's children began to produce and so on.

They were not thinking of good things, filling their hearts with a good heart that was faithful to God. Man allowed their hearts to be tempted with evil, and an evil heart is that of the Serpent, Satan, Lucifer, in other words a follower of the Devil.
