Faith or Fear?

Do you walk by faith or by fear?

Does your faith offend people. Of course it does!
Jesus told us that the world will hate us. Because we are not of this world!
Jesus offended people.... why does faith in God offend people?
Because -
because they have sin.
Because they don't want to repent- because they have pride. Because they have never really put thieir faith and trust in God. Maybe they don't really know Him?
Some people honor other people's pride more than they honor the Truth.
Hopefully they will see the Truth, and change for the Good!
"for we can do nothing against the truth, only for it."
and
"Whatever is not of faith is sin".
and
"faith works by love..."
"For if I have faith that can move mountains, but have not love I am nothing. "
I Love!
I LOVE love- I love the LORD. I Love His commandments, and I love His People!

Be Blessed!
~I AM!

Here are two prophecies that I wanted to share with you today - I believe they will speak encouragement to many of you.


THE TRUMPET by Bill Burns --
Dec. 28, 2009:
I would prophecy to you in the name of Jesus Christ that He is for you and not against you. He knows what you have gone through, and He knows where He is about to take you. He wants you to know today that out of the bad will come the good. And, out of that which is weak will come the strength. Out of the trouble that has come into your life God Himself will make a judgment in the heavenlies and overturn Satan's ruling. The glory of His majesty will be found as a canopy over you. The Lord says to you today, do not be disheartened, do not be discouraged, My children. Only believe, rise up in faith; rise up to your kingdom position; rise up to a new level of faith. Rise up, I say, and know that I am for you. I am leading you and guiding you into the fullness of your destiny, and I will be with you on this journey until the very end of the age. Your destiny has already been sealed; it has already been written and it shall come to pass if you will only believe. Abide in Me, walk with Me, stay with Me through the storms of life, and the greatness of the kingdom shall be your gift. Out of that kingdom shall flow all that you need, all that you require, all that you desire, says the Lord of Hosts.

The Spirit of the Lord says; Do not fret over the transitions and changes that I have allowed in your life. Most of the things that have been removed; whether people, familiar situations or circumstances, would have obstructed you from reaching the ultimate goal or position that I Am bringing you to. Some familiarities would have been an obstacle, while others would have been a deterrent to keep you from running unhindered. Others would have caused you to be snared by the enemy of your soul and stopped completely. Let them go! These obstructions in your life have hindered you from the clarity of great revelation. These revelations are necessary in order for these times of transition. These changes have all been about bringing My people up to a higher level, changing how you see and what you see as being genuine and real. Now you must release the load of weights that have caused your run to become sluggish and tiresome to you. Your flight will be glorious, as you and I, shake from you all that would detain you from reaching your proper place and position in Me. I have already spoken to you that the way would be narrow and not many will choose that way. The way is made so that your eyes should only look forward and stay focused on Me and all that is vital to the Kingdom and its advancement. This narrow, constricted passageway will lead you to the wide open spaces of living in the realms of My Spirit. My Holy Spirit has been directing your course, you may have struggled on this course, yet you did not fight against Holy Spirit. Because you chose to yield to Holy Spirit, you will reach your destination with more power, more glory, more anointing, more wisdom and more understanding of Me and My ways. You have now entered into a new position and place of authority. because of your endurance during times of transition. New keys are now placed in your hands for the opening of doors that you thought was locked to you. You will enter boldly now without fear or shame. You will walk into your promised territory, holding your head high, for you have kept the faith and stayed true to Me and My Word. Your focus remained on Me and the Kingdom, even through the darkest times of change. For your faithfulness you will abound with blessings and rewards. You were not lead astray by the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, or the pride of life. These three have slain many strong men of faith, yet, your love for Me remained strong. I Am well pleased with you, My children. Keep moving on the path of holiness and your destination will always be glorious! Stay focused and My light will forever brighten your steps into the right position of holiness.

Love the LORD ye His saints !!!

Sex, Please!

I have a confession...
I can't wait 'til the day that I'm married and can say to my husband, "Honey, let's have sex!"

I mean, that's what husbands are for, right?
Not that I walk around in lust or carnally minded all the time, but it is something that God created for us people to have and enjoy and reap from-right?
Think about it.... all humans are created with sexual capacaties.
Why is that???
It is something we are born with--- like--- human nature. Just like, eating, or drinking, or pooping ....
:)

BUT - I KNOW that there is a time and a place for everything.
When you have to go to the bathroom, you don't just drop your pants and poop on the floor in Wal-Mart. When you feel the urge to go you don't poop your pants in the car, do you??
(I really really hope not!!!)
And when your hungry, you don't just pick leaves off trees and eat them, or make a salad out of grass from your yard... and you can't eat your dishes and be satisfied.
SO....
I think sex and food and all the wonderful parts of human nature were and are created for God's glory and our GOOD.

the Bible says when God created man (AND WOMAN) that they were "GOOD".
The Word of God is something that does not change.
I really don't hink God created us as sexual beings to punish us or restrain us in some weird controlling way. I truly believe in moderation and temperance, but it is always something that we humans have to live with.
It's a spiritual war, remember?
But thank GOODNESS we are on the WINNING Team. WE have already WON the battle... we just have to walk in our victory!

I also think that men who use thier wives as scapegoats or think that women are less than men maybe don't think very highly, or let me say, good, of themselves. God created man and woman to be one. There is order, but one cannot be one without the other.
I believe in mutual respect, and mutual love.
And I believe husbands and wives should enjoy what God created them for.
:)
