Execution of Communication

Posted on Updated on

16298415_404928413179075_2954077500868050874_n“O That You Would Know You Can Execute Communication”…was the unction of the holy ghost this morning. When first glance, one may feel this means to kill communication and that is precisely what is being said, “We are to rid ourselves of corrupt communication via the commanding of proper communication” We simply exhibit a warning to intruders via example.  ~the Messenger 

2 Corinthians 2:7 | Philemon 1:6 | Habakkuk 2:3  | Ephesians 4:29-32

We Can Execute Communication via Examining Our Edifice of Communication

Pros & Cons of Executing Communication

prosandconsoneffectivecommunication

  • Be Forgiving: Forgiveness is choosing liberty over death. Liberty frees one; while the sin of being unforgiving causes death to communication; ending most (relationships);  such as with self, via prayer, in families, with friends, colleagues, or similar. executing-forgiveness

“And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you” Ephesians 4:32

  • Be Comforting: When we are comforting in our communication; we receive the same comfort in return. Refraining from bitterness. anger, malice, and other discomforts; affords one a peace that passes subjective understanding. Avoiding argumentative energy keeps the true balance of peace. executing-comfort

“Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou [art] with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me” Psalm 23:4

  •   Be Effective: Via active utilization of our faith; we may become effectual to communicate only that which is good to the use of edifying and ministering grace to the hearers; especially ourselves. Belief is a big tool of faith, which via diligence; attracts the rewards of  our loving and generous FATHER God. Sometimes reverential fear moves us more towards faith than away, like that of Noah. Subsequently, stepping into the unknown by trusting God, leads us directly to the promised vision, like that of Abraham. communicate-effectively-viafaithprayer

“But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that comes to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him” (Hebrews 11:6)

  • Greet Holiness in Goodness: “Acknowledging of every good thing which is in you”. Remind ourselves daily of the CHRIST inside us. Know that we are purposed towards an expected end; were fearfully and wonderfully made from above with no shadow of turning and via a perfect will of love, one for all. executing-kindness

“Salute one another with an holy kiss. The churches of Christ salute you. Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them. For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple. For your obedience is come abroad unto all men. I am glad therefore on your behalf: but yet I would have you wise unto that which is good, and simple concerning evil. And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen” Romans 16:16-20.

  • Work or Effect Patience: Wait for an appointed time for the vision, grieve not the holy Spirit of God. In lack of confidence; we often tire and our light (good energy) can grow dim, allowing darkness of doubt to overshadow our trust, thus making the vision seem more cloudy than it actually is.  This virtue of patience, at times seems most difficult…Especially when our eyes become blinded via selfishness, pride, haughtiness or similar. executing-patience  This is because all of these clouds seem to dig subjective pits, which we often stumble over or fall into. In pure confidence in our FATHER God, the Creator and owner of all things, we are assured of the birthright to have what He best wills for us, which is to prosper and to be of good health.  Health in every area of our lives from a higher perspective, that does not mimic worldly wealth and health [Set Apart—See Hebrews 10:10-12 & Micah 6:6-8].executing-holiness

“But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing” (James 1:4).

Moving From Heartache To Humility

Heartache From Loss of A Loved One, A breakup or Even Divorce & How the Most High via Spiritual Discernment Can Lead Us Toward Humility
16298415_404928413179075_2954077500868050874_n
Something considered about us after experiencing loss or a breakup; is that the holy ghost does comfort us with a profound peace and joy along with tears and pain. Imagine how the Most High feels, having sacrificed his only begotten son, that we may come to know Him (love), yet not have it reciprocated quite the same. We all have messed up over the countless centuries: lying, cheating, disrespecting, ignoring, brushing off, and even ultimately harming Christ.  ~ the Messenger
 



He created us in His image and after His likeness…



Image…Similitude

What do we know of God’s image (Genesis 1:27) or image in general?  
Image is an idea, representation or copy of something (similitude: H1823 demuth). He created us and did so with care and precision, knowing the numbers of hair per our head; whether hair strand #1 or #7000.


“But the very hairs of your head are all numbered” Matthew 10:30 


Our Heavenly FATHER and Holy Creator had an idea of what we would look like, be and do. So much of the Most High poured into us, that we became forgetful of HIS sovereignty. We didn’t trust HIS idea for us, because we had been gifted free will due HIS infinite and integral love. The Most High was unselfish, allowing us to have such liberty. The initial relationship had some guidelines, similar as we give towards our earthen associations. In general, relationships often or always start out good…
Example: Our Heavenly Father created us without knowing good or evil, then placed us in a beautiful dwelling place filled with every tree in the garden of which to be nourished from, except for one. We had no need of material things, or the special attention that we give toward one another today, in prejudgments like that of outward appearance (we were both naked and unashamed). Then an intruder, what we today may call a “hater, back-stabber, home-wrecker, etc”, decided to convince us to involve ourselves in an affair aside from the current beautiful relationship we already had. This intrusive being, was a beguiling serpent; who coerced woman through some of the very things today, which cause wandering eyes and hearts [to leave their first love]…via lusts and selfish pride. She cheated Adam, became impregnated with a virus…a deadly DISease called Sin,  and then infected Adam with the same [today, there are similar transmissions with adultery and fornication]. They both discovered themselves via knowledge of good and evil… Adam and Eve (man & woman) acted as unaccountable teenagers or irresponsible adults, who got caught in their licentiousness or what today is more widely known as promiscuity; but try to cover it up [they hid themselves for fear because of exposure]


The shew of their countenance doth witness against them; and they declare their sin as Sodom, they hide it not. Woe unto their soul! for they have rewarded evil unto themselves.  Isaiah 3:9



Are We Becoming  A Loveless Body?

thechurch

 

As stated above, it has happened over and over via biblical history:  Adam & Eve, Cain & Abel, the Israelite, Jonah, the Prodigal child and more all took their hearts and eyes off of the Most High. Even King Solomon who had wealth untold, multiple wives and rule over a kingdom at a youthful age, failed to remember the first love [the Most High], which was part of the relationship guidelines as he was gifted of the Most High, as no man would ever be gifted again.  16177462_403536623318254_5766710678373415750_o



Moving From HEARTACHE




The Almighty knew our hearts were not all good, but loves us anyway, allowing us freedom via time and chance to choose eternal life; even after we had, via sin fallen from our first state of being as “a living soul”. Remember we were created in the beginning in HIS image, “spirit“. 16177817_403539669984616_4717001501664213261_o


I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High. But ye shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes. Arise, O God, judge the earth: for thou shalt inherit all nations. Psalm 82:6-8



We have messed up over countless centuries through time, lying, cheating, disrespecting, ignoring, brushing off, and even ultimately harming our FIRST LOVE. Subsequently, because our Creator loved us, we were bestowed mercy repeatedly.
16113980_403534779985105_5328576557205705399_n
During every earth age over time, chaos has been upon the earth fueling idolatry, fornication, rebellion, murder, and sorcery of varying kinds, mixing and mingling of genetics, hate and disdain for “pure love”. We’ve forgotten that time has been on our side and somehow, we keep cycling the same attitude towards infidelity to purity.
There’s no value to reciprocate one’s time…once spent it is gone #priceless
~the Messenger
16142598_403526149985968_6091424570477151870_n


Yea, mine own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, which did eat of my bread, hath lifted up [his] heel against me. Psalm 41:9


...Towards HUMILITY



Does this ring familiar with how relationships are presently?  Friends, spouses, lovers, co-workers, etc. Somehow, many of us have at one time or another encountered lies, disloyalty, distrust, ignorance, hardheartedness, blame, ridicule, hurt and/or similar.
haggai1_2-5

 

May this forethought in spirit, guide us to consider mere breakups just as profoundly, as was our downfall throughout the years. ~the Messenger

  • Perhaps the next time we pick and choose who is to blame or who is not worthy of our love, we will humble ourselves in the sight of the Almighty, delight ourselves in the strength of joy from and via the love offering which was given us all via Christ.
  • Perhaps we will remember to do everything heartily as unto the most High.
  • Perhaps we’ll learn to forgive that we may be forgiven.
  • Perhaps we’ll know how to comfort rather than constrict or restrict another’s display of affection towards us
  • Perhaps we’ll afford subjective time and chance to abstain from lusts of the eyes and of the flesh, and get far away from selfish pride of life, rather than behave uncouth or undisciplined.
  • Perhaps if we would be more mindful than mindless (forfeiting our innate spirit of love untouched), we would have fidelity in the union we have been given and not harshly judgmental as to the outward appearances of things.
  • Perhaps we would value every moment of time given us as it is thus, borrowed and bought with a price.
  • Perhaps we would negate disunity; reconsider our ways, and realize how murderous they can be when irrepressible or unbridled …


Colossians 2:23
Which things have indeed a shew of wisdom in will worship, and humility, and neglecting of the body: not in any honour to the satisfying of the flesh.


For instance such negative attributes of disunity kill marriages, friendships, businesses, families, emotions, goodness, kindnesses, strength, vitality, perseverance, faith, trust, fidelity, courage, nature, and sometime even lives…but Moreover they kill the “will to love,” as we journey this earthen plane learning how to worship the Most High in spirit and in truth. Love covers all, is all, in us all and through us all~God is love.

Why is Prayer Essential?

Posted on

We have discussed this before, but in short reiteration…Prayer is our means of communication with the Most High. daily-meditations2017iepmartwork

How We Were Taught to Pray & Why:

We all understand the steps and the importance of:

  • …Acknowledging the Holiness of Our Father
  • …Knowing where He presently and will in the future reign(s)
  • …Confiding in and gracious for His daily provision, protection and unending mercy for us
  • …Remembrance, Understanding, Acknowledgment and Confidence in His forever kingdom, power and glory

thelordsprayer What Else is Essential for Prayer? We need to understand that because of His holiness, we are taught that we aren’t immediately able to approach the Most High (Exodus 33:11-20) and therefore, we need a mediator…Preferably one who is not alive in the flesh, but is in fact spirit, right. pray-effectively

Okay, we’ll clear this up in a moment…but for now let’s look at the Mediator: Jesus [Yah Messiah, the anointed] Christ: the Mediator…the one Intermediary between God and man…

*note: we encourage our readers to examine the name [power] of Christ in origin, etymology, and history, as strong delusion is upon us via much controversy by way of confusion. Remember we are called to work out our own salvation with fear and trembling and to study to show ourselves approved unto the Most High, with no necessity for shame in rightfully dividing [] the words of truth. Look further than the internet, ask the Most High for wisdom. he-shall-know-of-the-doctrine-of-god

For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man {last Adam} Christ Jesus; Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time” (1 Timothy 2:5-6).

Why? It’s because of the blood atonement…(via his human birth and death & spiritual resurrection)–He paid the cost or wage of death for us all, cleansing us from all unrighteousness, and freeing us from the sting of death with an offer of eternal salvation by way of faith, the same of which he authors and finishes in us.

“Who is he that condemns? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us” (Romans 8:4).

pray-for-them-which-despitefully-use-you Are there other mediators or intercessor’s? Yes, you and I (as one; unified in the body); we  are representative ambassadors as living vessels for and of “Christ” praying one for another, for our enemies and those who misuse and persecute us despitefully–Mt 5:44. The bible teaches us that the effectual and fervent prayers of the righteous avail much–James 5:16.

brethren-pray-for-us

This is another case in point, why the order of prayer is essential. Our human righteousness is flawed absent the holy spirit [power, love & sound mind]. This is because the human life experience or journey was morphed see Romans 3:23 & 5:12-19; Ecclesiastes 7:20; Job 15:14-16;  & Psalm 51:5 –and presents a weakness in the flesh. Additionally, it is a sort of frailty due sin (fall in original nature –1st Adam see Genesis 2-7 & 8:21; Ezekiel 28:15), and because of this, we often don’t know what to pray for. ( 1 John 1:10; 2 Cor 5:21; Rom 8:26-27).

“For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him”(2 Corinthians 5:21)

Next, since we via waged sin [death: see Rom 6:23] became separated from God,  we needed a connection or lifeline, if you will. Christ is the way, truth and life and the connector to the Soul & Spirit (Creator of creation ~immortal soul) we once were and are thus; transforming back into.

Meanwhile, we receive divine instruction via the guidance of the holy spirit into all truth John 8:32, as to the narrow itinerary to eternal freedom.  Romans 6:22, i.e. Christ.

Finally, we are told to dress in the full attire of God, to be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. We’re familiar with Ephesians 6, so here’s a recap of the Armor.

maxresdefault-4

  1.  Truth
  2. Righteousness
  3. Peace
  4. Faith 
  5. Salvation
  6. The Spirit (word of God)
  7. Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints

To sum it up CHRIST (conscience) is what we should be living, breathing, thinking, speaking, acknowledging, remembering, and utilizing  the name as the gifted power, love, and sound mind to glorify our FATHER, the Most High, Holy Creator (omniscience). If we search the scriptures on the 7 pieces of armor, we will find CHRIST is the coming kingdom. Are we ready to put on the incorruptible, glorified body? Prayer will answer this question individually for all.

No More Heavy Loads: When Worth Takes On a New Perspective…

Posted on

It is often because of “stuff”, that we overlook or completely turn away from GOD more than we look towards HIM (LOVE~AGAPE). The tangible stuff we spend money  on as gifts 🎁 for ourselves is our earthen portion for here & now. It only fascinates the carnal eyes. Yet, it cannot accompany us when we’re gone
~the Messenger 
For some, stuff defines who they are or in some way validates their existence. However, there are still those who exist (alive) without need for such validation because they realize they are H.E.R.E not of themselves…living moving and breathing [life]. 
H.E.R.E. ~ Having Experienced Reality Earnestly 


When Worth Takes On a New Perspective



Heavy loads can become burdensome and at times hard to carry or manage. This earthen life offers plenty of that in varying forms. While we must work to eat and to exist in this place. It does not mean that we do not share same or similar burdens.
Loads for all whether rich or poor:
  • Heart
  • Health
  • Finances
  • Home
  • Family
  • Relationships
To exist is to be quickened, made alive…alert to life [breath of the Holy Spirit] and its loads. Someone everywhere deals with all of the above at some point or another. Some manage them better than others. Some do very well for themselves with earthen goods “stuff”. Meanwhile, the unbelievers tend to think they are more worthy than those who may seem or in fact be less equipped. The unbelievers forfeit the coming, everlasting kingdom of heaven at the end of this earth age. fools-despise-wisdom-and-instruction
“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction”
Proverbs 1:7 
 Once again, stuff, the temporary things of this world  (i.e. sins and iniquities via lusts of the eyes and of the flesh, pride of life) separates us from God. The oldest known vice of the satan or devil is to divide us via murder. theft, or destruction. This same cunning, is a well-oiled machine driven by rebellion, ignorance and disobedience to Yah God Omnipotent; who commands us to live peaceably with all men if possible. [See Romans 12:17-19]. Sometimes it can be or seem impossible to do so absent the Holy Spirit {power, love, sound mind}, that is. Dead men don’t talk, right? Someone has to make mention of them from memory or via persuasion. Satan is a prince of the fleshly dead, corruption–airway of sin. Sin separates us from God, while love [CHRIST] draws us toward GOD [SPIRIT] and when we leave here…all the “Worldly Stuff” i.e. vanity, we have will be left behind us. What citizens of the prince of this world may deem run-of-the-mill, average or bottom feeders; should be examined from a mirroring perspective. Remember, Satan tempted the Lord  Jesus “Yahshua” the anointed Christ with stuff. 


Worldly Stuff includes but is not limited to… 

  • The sown discord regarding biases with social & economical gain and/or hiatuses, human knowledge, skin color, race and/or religion
  • The complexities with law and principalities regarding economic, social and governmental policy or power struggles
  • Money and greed
  • Wood and stone (work of men’s hands) 
…more. All the above are works from Satan’s dark seat [hell & fallen angels], which blinds us with distortion from Spirit & Truth via confusion and accusation of differences. The same works; via observance of outward appearances which, CHRIST [heaven & its hosts] lightens the path and heals, giving sight to the blind.
give-light-and-understanding
Eph 2:2; 2 Cor 4:4; John 6:33-35; 8:12; 12:31-46; Matt 3:2; 4:3-9; 12:26; 13:24; 13:38-39 & 25:41; ; Acts 1:8 & 26:18; Colossians 1:13; Mark 1:1; Job 2:2; Isaiah 9:6 & 14:12; Luke 24:45;  & Rev 22:16.
We perhaps should shed light and understanding upon this and began to redefine good “s.t.u.f.f.” as spirit, truth, understanding, faith & forgiveness.


Spirit and Truth
Why be burdened down here in the now, with stuff from Satan’s seat, which causes confusion through pointing out differences that attempt to nullify the word of God [do not matter to the Most High]. Ironically, it provokes Him to anger, reaching up to heaven via the tears and prayers of the saints by the imputed righteousness of Christ [way, truth, life]. Revelation 18:5 & 1 Timothy 5:24 .
[Human existence includes divinely imposed burdens (Gen. 3:16–19; Rom. 8:22, 23). Jesus makes them bearable (Matt. 11:28–30)] (Ecclesiastes 1:13 RSB notes, n.d.).
Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 
Matthew 5:10
Therefore,  we should note that one’s worth is only noted to their spiritual or divine hire. Either we are working for steadfastly and diligently for Christ or in nought; burdensome for Satan. Hot or cold. Anything else is regurgitated by God (lukewarm). 
“And in the same house remain, eating and drinking such things as they give: for the laborer is worthy of his hire. Go not from house to house”
Luke 10:7 
“For the scripture saith, thou shalt not muzzle the ox that treads out the corn. And, The laborer is worthy of his reward”  
1 Timothy 5:18

Testimonial: Perfecting Faith

I am so thankful to know who I am in the Lord. One can’t imagine the hell another may have to endure with each new level walking in the spirit of the LORD. God has shown me how to to be serious about my soul.

In Thought Quotes: 
When the bible mentions “the trials of our faith working patience”….wow! Patience via man’s tradition is an undisclosed; sometimes incessant, waiting period.

Subsequently, spiritual patience however, is submissively trusting and confiding everything in and to the MOST HIGH GOD. The same POWER via love that sits us down also always picks us up.

Considder Thy Ways

…this for me became serious when meditating on the work of my own salvation. God has confirmed for me that darkness was created that the formation of light may guide our feet.  I have learned more about myself via Yah’s truth.

Perhaps in some instances; it has been more than I cared to know, but it has changed me for the better. I am still partly human due this vessel called flesh and therefore susceptible to inferiority of varying kinds

I have found out the importance of hearing the gist of matters out, fleeing wrongful chatter as much as possible, and acknowledging the LORD in everything I do. We hear people say “the devil” pertaining this, that and/or the third on some of everything. Truth be told is the flesh [darkness] that surrounds my soul and spirit [light] is the biggest devil I have had to face, confront and/or fight. Jesus [Yahshua] the Word made manifest in the flesh, the same of which, dwelt among men; met and conquered death, has  been grafted on and become the formed light of my heart, mind, soul and spirit. Matt 5:14-16 John 1:1-34; 8:12 |1 Timothy 3:16 

“Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven” Matthew 5:16 

Howbeit, plenty of people have tried to dissuade me from letting my light shine: They say don’t talk to me about god, don’t preach god to me, don’t mention god every other sentence, can you talk without mentioning god in everything? I was guilty of the same error myself once, too. Yet, I have learned that what comes out is what’s within. I am not perfect nor ashamed No…not  perfect, no one is. Yet, this confirmed for me of how much of me, Yahshua consumes or utilizes. Again, but GOD! Hallelujah.  2 Timothy 1:12 | Romans 1:16 . 

People everywhere who have obtained anything in life, have had to perform some task [work] for it. The believer’s work is their faith…

Faith in asking, believing, receiving and proclaiming the glory of Yah for and in all things, which are HIS

  • Make notes to self:reminding ourselves that if we forget what sat us down,chances are we may stumble again, but if we choose to acknowledge truth of said things, the weight of them becomes less burdensome to bear #redeemed
  • The adversary may accuse a believer of throwing pity parties when they may be  testifying of where the LORD has brought them from.#mercy
  • There is a firm difference in waddling in self-pity and proclaiming glory to Yah for what has transformed in their new walk.#gratitude
  • If in fact it does seem that the brethren are crying out, it is not in any way an invitation to mistreat that one with guile, disregard,belligerence or condescension. Yet instead it is opportunity for children of the Most High to receive a blessing by being a blessing by lifting that one up in the esteem of God…remember love works no ill.  #theWillofGod 

There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear: because fear hath torment. He that fears is not made perfect in love

Time Well Spent …Is Time Spent Well

In Thought Quotes for Today:

 Well Spent Time…Is Time Spent Well

WHY??????

Sometimes people have a tendency to take others’ kindness for granted. They feel as if their opinions, credentials, money, etc. are solely worthy of a believer’s entertainment or time. Yah instructs us to be mindful when entertaining strangers, angels unawares. Sometimes the very ones we think we know are strangers, and perhaps fallen angels in the state of spirit. Nonetheless, we can take either as a gift. Survivors thru ChristGreetingGoodandPerfect03012014_James1_17KJV
Remember not all earthen gifts are good, yet all the gifts from above are both good and perfectBesides that, time is the only gift that cannot be refunded nor compensated for by another. Therefore, we as believers try our best to make it is well spent. The best time one can spend is time with our Heavenly Father and it doesn’t matter where… so long as  working out one’s own salvation and getting to know Him better each day, humbled in His sight i.e. omnipresence, sharing and embracing light & love

Romans 13:11/ Psalm 90:12 / Colossians 4:5-6 / Proverbs 24:30-34 / Luke 8:17 & 12:2-3  / Hebrews 4:13 / 1 Corinthians 4:5 

time-well-spent

Every minute of time that we give to another is time away from the intimate times via prayer and/or meditation with YAH.  Never misconstrue  usury as a blessing. Especially if it turns or varies last minute. If it’s business, then don’t make it personal. If personal, don’t make it business. Moreover, keep it pleasing to Yah.  
“Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning”
daily-meditations2017iepmartwork
On that note,  We feel so delighted that there are no hook-ups, discounts,  free passes or favors lent to us to make it to heaven. We merely have to walk by faith via love, in the spirit through one door.
John 10:1-11
“Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man comes unto the Father, but by me”
(John 14:6)
” Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that enters not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbs up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber”
( John 10:1)
Dear enemy,
If you meant or mean it for our good, then don’t turn it into something bad. Yes, we are to do heartily as unto the Lord, but Yah God doesn’t make junk of His own. He instead, makes what others consider junk, brand new for His good pleasure. We pray to our Father who art in heaven for those who despitefully misuse and persecute us. We pray blessings to all; of conviction and contrition of heart towards love, the greatest commandment with promise, in Christ’ name Amen.

“But as for you, ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as it is this day, to save much people alive”

Flesh vs Spirit

Flesh vs Spirit [Kingdom Principles / Codes of Ethics] & the Elemental Spirits of the World

In thought quotes for today:

As we evolve in to a higher awareness of self and of the elemental forces surrounding us, change is inevitable. We no longer are satisfied with the atrocities, oppression’s, and dictatorship of others on living a life conscious of subjective morale which embodies our mindset of kingdom living…(Luke 17:20-21).  daily-meditations2017iepmartwork

That is where we sever the binding ties to flightless infatuation, and become freed from the masked imps in the form of simp’s and pimps ushering us into deep darkness: body and mind, towards life dreaded with or over time.  Sometimes it seems no one understands let alone hears or sees us (lonely).

humility-before-honor-the-love-of-yah

Sometimes we act out starved of or craving attention, yet still unnoticeable it seems; as we sink deeper into the darkness of salvation. By this, I simply mean our world becomes so darkened, that only at this aforementioned pivotal moment, can the light shine forth or glow through. We become tired of the temporary fixes, where we feel nobody is there to love us for who or as we are…when all along, we have ignored where and what innately is true (pure) love. (Matt 6:22-23)

mindful-of-the-war

When we are finally as low as life can seemingly take us, Yah lets us know He has been with us throughout the journey, waiting for us to prostrate ourselves, humbled in His sight [holy presence]. This itinerary or frequency of our destiny undergoes metamorphosis. We transcend into what He wanted or rather willed for us initially, children of light and love….a light that can’t be extinguished and a love everlasting.

be-mindful-of-theThat is to know and ascertain that we’re here because of YAH.  The less we attempt to deal with life’s issues alone or by ourselves, the more YAH increases in our lives [Holy Surrender]. We empty ourselves of all the infirmities [brokenness]. We allow Yah to enter our hearts, take the broken pieces apart bit by bit and to reassemble them into a transformed perfect fit.

  • Perfect love casts out all we feared.
  • We love the skin we’re in with all its flaws.
  • We do better, as we become more knowledgeable that Yah is control and all of our sins were paid with the price of perfect love via the blood of the lamb.
  • We are to exude it towards Yah, ourselves and others.
  • We are to testify of this love in every chance time gives us.


Rhema:

“Yah not only knows and sees all; but formulates the hearts of all” [Para, RSB, Ps 33:13-15]. Boastfulness should only be in the LORD, as in praise, and far from selfish pride. Yah performs only His word and will; towards His good pleasure. He teaches us to flee trouble, bad conversation and/or company rather than run towards it. Yah gives grace to the humble. Resist the devil. Rid the mind of fleshly things). see Ephesians 6:12-13
James 4:6
But he gives more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resists the proud, but gives grace unto the humble.

Yah controls the heart and mind, which govern the eyes and our extremities (Matt 6:19/ 1 Sam 16:7 / ). The light of the body is the eye. if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light. (Matt 6:22 ).

What we took from our study:

Awesome & Mighty is the Most High God…Yah always brings His purpose to pass
Dying to self means being reborn of the spirit…Be thankful to be resurrected via Christ. We bend but don’t break under the pressure of opposition. We confide in the greater in us (the inward man). Being born again of the spirit allows us to face all truths, even our ugly ones. That is exemplary of the beauty of holiness…it separates the good from the evil and it rights or renews the good via perfect love casting away every “fear” (which is not a spirit given us of Yahweh).
 
Our wrath is minuscule compared to the wrath of the Most High; therefore, we should not sin in our anger nor bellyache and waddle in sorrow(s). Yah wills every step of man towards righteousness in Himself…[] “For the wrath of man works not the righteousness of God” []..Praise Yah!
 
Above our thoughts, plans, emotions, or feelings about it are the good and perfect gifts from Yah towards us [] Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above” [], Hallelujah!
possess-ye-your-souls
Possessing our soul takes patience worked through the trials of our faith…So be thankful right now for the trials because whom the LORD loves, he chastens and seek to experience love via patiently resting in the Most High. Hallelujah! 
Psalm 29:2
Give unto the Lord the glory due unto his name; worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.

When our spiritual growth is transparent, there’s nothing the enemy can utilize against us. Hallelujah! god-is-in-control

thelordsprayerOur Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever, Amen.




In life we meet many a journey or task. Four years ago this blog emerged from our sister site and other endeavors to pay-it-forward since 1995. We are so very thankful to the Most High for allowing us to Pray-it-Forward.

When we wield ourselves over to the Holy Spirit, the itinerary is very scenic. We have seen and shared both good and bad times together; but we have weathered the storms…in some sense, both proverbial and actual.

Today we celebrate four years blogging for Christ, here on wordpress.com and we owe everything to the Most High. Hallelujah! This led us to start another blog as well on Facebook, which in turn; allowed us to open a venue of prayer with the sanctification of a virtual Prayer Closet as well. Look at YAH!



Yah is Love, Spirit, Truth and the Word…SOVEREIGN! 



STC is now accepting prayer requests via Messenger on both STC online Facebook pages as well as our prayer-line and email at stc.tsg@gmail.com.

Survivors thru Christ Facebook Page is an open study forum of the inspired Word of God where we study towards fruition in spirit and truth. We simply share pieces of our study as well as scriptures, poetry and commentary from this blog and sometimes other research data.

survivors-thru-christ_tsg2017blogimage

Survivors thru Christ Prayer Closet Facebook Group Is a Prayer Closet big enough for the bulk of us gathered together in His name; asking, believing and receiving from the Most High the answers of yes and Amen via love, healing, comfort, deliverance, protection, provision, righteousness, peace, strength, patience…more. We touch and agree whether disclosed or not, in prayer for others according to the word and will of Yahweh. We also after praying in the spirit, divide the Word of truth via shared passages within the prayer group.

We set up an email to handle personal prayer requests as well at stc.tsg@gmail.com. We do not have a big team, but still receive some prayer requests by phone as well. None of us is perfect, so we leave judgment to the Most High and simply offer HIS LOVE towards all. We have this saying “The Word will work itself”…

We appreciate your involvement over the years. Keep tuning in. Though we are small in number, we remain big on praise and elevated in momentum.

If you want to offer, share a and/or join in prayer visit us here on Facebook. Personal Prayer requests can still be placed in our messenger queue and we will continually add your name or request (per choice) to our STC Prayer Closet list, as we ask the Holy Spirit to intercede on our behalf. If you decide to join the prayer closet please read and note you have done so in the description and sanctification prayer.
