The Purpose Behind Our Words, What Would Jesus Say?

“For I have not spoken on my own authority, but the Father who sent me has himself given me a commandment—what to say and what to speak. And I know that his commandment is eternal life. What I say, therefore, I say as the Father has told me” Jesus.

~~~John 12:49-50 (ESV)~~~

“This is because I have never spoken on My own authority or of My own accord or as self-appointed, but the Father Who sent Me has Himself given Me orders [concerning] what to say and what to tell. And I know that His commandment is (means) eternal life. So whatever I speak, I am saying [exactly] what My Father has told Me to say and in accordance with His instructions.”

~~~John 12:49-50 (AMPC)~~~

“For I’m not speaking as someone who is self-appointed, but I speak by the authority of the Father himself who sent me, and who instructed me what to say. And I know that the Father’s commands result in eternal life, and that’s why I speak the very words I’ve heard him speak.”

The One & Only Faithful God

“Know therefore that the Lord your God is God, the faithful God who keeps covenant and steadfast love with those who love him and keep his commandments, to a thousand generations, and repays to their face those who hate him, by destroying them. He will not be slack with one who hates him. He will repay him to his face.”

~~~Deuteronomy 7:9-10 (ESV)~~~

“God wasn’t attracted to you and didn’t choose you because you were big and important—the fact is, there was almost nothing to you. He did it out of sheer love, keeping the promise he made to your ancestors. God stepped in and mightily bought you back out of that world of slavery, freed you from the iron grip of Pharaoh king of Egypt. Know this: God, your God, is God indeed, a God you can depend upon. He keeps his covenant of loyal love with those who love him and observe his commandments for a thousand generations. But he also pays back those who hate him, pays them the wages of death; he isn’t slow to pay them off—those who hate him, he pays right on time.”

~~~Deuteronomy 7:9-10 (MSG)~~~

“Know therefore that the Lord thy God, he is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations; And repayeth them that hate him to their face, to destroy them: he will not be slack to him that hateth him, he will repay him to his face.”

The Peace of Christ

“Put on then, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience, bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive. And above all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony. And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful.”

Do You Really Believe That God Loves You?

Rich Mullins “There are many things in the Christian faith that are hard to get a handle on. And one of the things that I struggle the hardest with is believing that God really loves me. It’s too good to believe, but it’s true. Whether I can believe it or not. The fact is, I mean if you took the whole Bible and you shook it around and melted it down and said what is the essence of what this whole thing is saying, I think that it would just be that God loves you very much, that God in fact is crazy about you….To the degree that you can believe it, it changes things”.

“for the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me and have believed that I came from God”.

~~~John16:27 (ESV)~~~

“but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us”.

~~~Romans 5:8 (ESV)~~~

“So we have come to know and to believe the love that God has for us. God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him”.

~~~1 John 4:16 (ESV)~~~

“Give thanks to the God of heaven, for his steadfast love endures forever”.

~~~Psalm 136:26 (ESV)~~~

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life”.

Satan, the Great Deceiver

Dennis Wingfield “Satan is the Great Deceiver. He cannot create anything but can only twist that which God has created. Satan tries to convince us that God really does not love us, that He really does not care for us and that He really does not have our best interests at heart. Do not listen to these lies”.

“Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.”

~~~James 4:7 (KJV)~~~

“The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.”

~~~John 10:10 (KJV)~~~

“Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.”

Jealousy, Angel Lucifer’s Self-destructive, Selfish, Secret Little Sin

Kathryn Kuhlman “As you read the Word, and if you and I have any right to put sin in any kind of a category, I think that we’ll find that the sin of jealousy is the worst sin there is. So great, so powerful is the sin of jealousy that literally its power, its force, caused one of the three most beautiful angels that God ever created and to whom He gave the greatest power, transformed that one from an angel into the devil. It was the sin of jealousy that caused Lucifer to be what he is today, the devil, Satan. And yet how many of us will just label the sin of jealousy as a witness, a minor thing, something that we have never confessed, we have never admitted this sin in our own lives, we do not see it in ourselves”.

“How you are fallen from heaven, O Day Star, son of Dawn! How you are cut down to the ground, you who laid the nations low!”

~~~Isaiah 14:12 (ESV)~~~

“How have you fallen from heaven, O light-bringer and daystar, son of the morning! How you have been cut down to the ground, you who weakened and laid low the nations [O blasphemous, satanic king of Babylon!]”

~~~Isaiah 14:12 (AMPC)~~~

“art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!”

Blessing His Holy Name!

“Bless (affectionately, gratefully praise) the Lord, O my soul; and all that is [deepest] within me, bless His holy name! Bless (affectionately, gratefully praise) the Lord, O my soul, and forget not [one of] all His benefits—Who forgives [every one of] all your iniquities, Who heals [each one of] all your diseases, Who redeems your life from the pit and corruption, Who beautifies, dignifies, and crowns you with loving-kindness and tender mercy; Who satisfies your mouth [your necessity and desire at your personal age and situation] with good so that your youth, renewed, is like the eagle’s [strong, overcoming, soaring]!”

Satan’s “Counterfeit System & Society” Meant to Eliminate God Out of Your Life

Bill Winston “Satan’s job is to contain you. And he’s built a counterfeit system and society. And what he’s trying to do is teach people to live without God. And what is happening without God is things are getting worse. Why? Because the whole earth is groaning, waiting, come on, for the manifestation of the sons of God. You and I are the only ones that can really fix this. So I’m saying for you now, why don’t you when you get in the Word of God, ask the Holy Spirit, say Holy Spirit show me what this really means. See, don’t go by your traditional thinking anymore. Just ask Him to show you and take you as far out there as He wants to take you. And get, start praising God about it. I came to speak some things. I’m speaking into the atmosphere. You don’t let this counterfeit society tell you who you are, what you can do and what you can have. The standards of the world don’t have anything to do with you, you from another place. You like superman. You gotta say some stuff and you gotta say it and not care what they think about it”.

~~~Luke 4:1-13 (KJV)~~~

“And Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost returned from Jordan, and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness, Being forty days tempted of the devil. And in those days he did eat nothing: and when they were ended, he afterward hungered. And the devil said unto him, If thou be the Son of God, command this stone that it be made bread. And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God. And the devil, taking him up into an high mountain, shewed unto him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time. And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to I will I give it. If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shall be thine. And Jesus answered and said unto him, Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.

And he brought him to Jerusalem, and set him on a pinnacle of the temple, and said unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down from hence: For it is written, He shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee: And in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone. And Jesus answering said unto him, It is said, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God. And when the devil had ended all the temptation, he departed from him for a season.”

Remembering Well The Lord

Jesse Duplantis “The key to prospering spiritually, physically and financially is not how much faith you got. That’s good. It’s how much you remember. Because you can have a bad day, but if you remember good things it erases the bad day. Remembering is a very powerful tool and source. The title of this message is ‘To Remember Is to Always Prosper’. To remember what? We’re going to deal with that”.

“Only take care, and keep your soul diligently, lest you forget the things that your eyes have seen, and lest they depart from your heart all the days of your life. Make them known to your children and your children’s children—” Deuteronomy 4:9 (ESV).

“You shall remember the Lord your God, for it is he who gives you power to get wealth, that he may confirm his covenant that he swore to your fathers, as it is this day” Deuteronomy 8:18 (ESV).
