Jump over your shadows

Jump over your shadows

Hurt again, irritated, lied to, saddled with someone else’s responsibility and you only realize it when it is too late and you are tied in. Great! What fun that is, or?

Then you get angry with yourself and imagine all sorts of accusations against yourself and others….

Everyone is against me!

God, why do you allow this to happen?

God, I am your child and do you see what they are doing to me?

My temperature is at the highest degree.

Now I have to do something to get back at them.

God hears you and allows you time until you surrender all to Him.

When you are feeling a bit better, come quietly, don’t look back, nor to the left or right, just follow me.

OK.

Grace before Righteousness!

How many times have you experienced this?

I have lost count.

So, now it is my turn.

Stay factual, forgive your neighbor, speak forgiveness to those who have irritated you, as you have fallen yourself many times…

It is imperative that you pursue peace. Here is how to do it.

In the scriptures we are encouraged to do it:

Hebrews:. 12: 14

Make every effort to live in peace with everyone and to be holy, without holiness no one will see the Lord.

2 Peter 3:14

So then, dear friends, since you are looking forward to this, make every effort to be found spotless, blameless and at peace with him

So these two scriptures set out the expectations which we should strive towards.

That is where the lifestyle of a child of King Jesus Christ begins.

Then we are doers of the Word.

It also does not hurt, it is also not particularly difficult, it is not impossible to do.

Father thank you for those gathered here together. Pour out your peace in their hearts. Give them courage to live this new lifestyle, the lifestyle of Jesus Christ. Father, in Jesus name I come to you and ask you to forgive my obstinacy which always wants to return. The big ‘I’ that always wants rule and judge.

Thank you Father, thank you Jesus and thank you Holy Spirit for your love for us and in us.

Now we want to praise and worship you, for you are worthy and praise, worship and the honor.

Halleluja, thank you Lord. Amen

You are important !

Isaiah 43:1 – 3
But now thus saith the Lord that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine.
2 When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.
3 For I am the Lord thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour: I gave Egypt for thy ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for thee.
Jacob is a name given by people. Israel is a godly name personally given by God.
Genesis 35:10
10 And God said unto him, Thy name is Jacob: thy name shall not be called any more Jacob, but Israel shall be thy name: and he called his name Israel.
So Jacob became Israel. So insert your name for Jacob, for he no longer lives, but you live. That is groundbreaking. From this you can deduct how much God trusts you, loves you and how important you are to the Lord. Fear not, for God is with you. Do you do that? Make a mental note, God is for you. God is your creator. God has redeemed you, you are His. World class.
I am the Lord your God, the holy one of Israel, your redeemer.
Exodus 3:14
14 And God said unto Moses, I Am That I Am: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I Am hath sent me unto you.
This “I am”, means God loves you and you are his. A part/piece of God, absolutely priceless and precious. You have God’s full attention, you are important to God.
Do you really think like that?
My recommendation, do it, be a doer of the word. Do not allow yourself to be unsettled, believe the word of God, trust the word of God. According to, John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
Take the word seriously. It is your new life in you. You are so important to Him, the holy one of Israel.
Hallelujah, Amen.

Forgive, me ? !

Matthew 6: 14 For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you
Matthew 6:15 But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
John 20:23 Whose soever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them; and whose soever sins ye retain, they are retained.
Ok, you have forgiven your fellow man and you have found peace. Have you spoken the forgiveness found in Jesus Christ over yourself? Or was it not so important for you. Where you embarrassed to forgive yourself because: you spoke too much and you weren’t honest. You looked at wrong things and entered your own fantasy world. You were not honorable in financial matters before God and man. You discovered that you were overcome with jealousy, anger and envy etc. When you were not able to achieve your goals through regular and fair means, you resorted to manipulation, violence, deception, sympathy, and lies.
Give no ear, waste no second for these false thoughts. For such comes from the enemy.
Ephesians 4: 32 And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you.
Do likewise unto yourself, for God loves you. He created you and will continue to work on you, if you let him.
1 John 2: 12 I write unto you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name’s sake.
Lord Jesus, here we now are. Your children stand before you with their egos and I pray Lord cleanse them from evil self-condemnation, lack of boldness and maliciousness.
Thank you Holy Spirit that you are faithful and helpful and that you work in every one of us. So that suffering is turned to joy and victory. Lying and deception is turned into truthfulness. Talkativeness is turned into quietness before you Lord. Maliciousness is turned into love.
Hallelujah, hallelujah, our God is good, great and mighty to sanctify us, through grace, heavenly father in your son, our high priest through your Holy Spirit Lord.
Thank you Abba, thank you Jesus and thank you Holy Spirit. You three, one good gracious God.
Amen.

Happy new year

Dear brothers,
we wish you a blessed 2016, Gods protection in all your ways and on all your roads.

Matthew 5:10
Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
