Taking Responsibility For Sexual Sins

Andrew Bauman “Your husband’s punishing you because he’s wildly insecure, he’s terrified of you. He wants to lash out so, because he’s acting out. You are not wrong. He wants to gaslight you, make you feel like you’re the problem when really he’s terrified to deal with his own stuff. So do not take that on. Do not own that, it is his issue. You can look at an article I wrote ‘What If My Husband’s Using Porn'”.

“Shun immorality and all sexual looseness [flee from impurity in thought, word, or deed]. Any other sin which a man commits is one outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body. Do you not know that your body is the temple (the very sanctuary) of the Holy Spirit Who lives within you, Whom you have received [as a Gift] from God? You are not your own, You were bought with a price [purchased with a preciousness and paid for, made His own]. So then, honor God and bring glory to Him in your body.”

~~~1 Corinthians 6:18-20 (AMPC)~~~

“Confess to one another therefore your faults (your slips, your false steps, your offenses, your sins) and pray [also] for one another, that you may be healed and restored [to a spiritual tone of mind and heart]. The earnest (heartfelt, continued) prayer of a righteous man makes tremendous power available [dynamic in its working].”

~~~James 5:16 (AMPC)~~~

The Lord Knows My Heart

May 18, 2021May 18, 2021 taylorjamesalbert

Psalm 139 (ESV)

O Lord, you have searched me and known me!
You know when I sit down and when I rise up;
you discern my thoughts from afar.
You search out my path and my lying down
and are acquainted with all my ways.
Even before a word is on my tongue,
behold, O Lord, you know it altogether.
You hem me in, behind and before,
and lay your hand upon me. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me;
it is high; I cannot attain it.

Where shall I go from your Spirit?
Or where shall I flee from your presence?
If I ascend to heaven, you are there!
If I make my bed in Sheol, you are there!
If I take the wings of the morning
and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea,
even there your hand shall lead me,
and your right hand shall hold me.
If I say, ‘Surely the darkness shall cover me,
and the light about me be night,’
even the darkness is not dark to you;
the night is bright as the day,
for darkness is as light with you.

For you formed my inward parts;
you knitted me together in my mother’s womb.
I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.
Wonderful are your works;
my soul knows it very well.
My frame was not hidden from you,
when I was being made in secret,
intricately woven in the depths of the earth.
Your eyes saw my unformed substance;
in your book were written, every one of them,
the days that were formed for me,
when as yet there was none of them.

How precious to me are your thoughts, O God!
How vast is the sum of them!
If I would count them, they are more than the sand.
I awake, and I am still with you.

Oh that you would slay the wicked, O God!
O men of blood, depart from me!
They speak against you with malicious intent;
your enemies take your name in vain.
Do I not hate those who hate you, O Lord?
And do I not loathe those who rise up against you?
I hate them with complete hatred;
I count them my enemies.

Search me, O God, and know my heart!
Try me and know my thoughts!
And see if there be any grievous way in me,
and lead me in the way everlasting!”

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

May 8, 2021May 8, 2021 taylorjamesalbert

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.”

How to Be the Greatest Somebody You Can Be

May 5, 2021May 5, 2021 taylorjamesalbert

“Selfie Dad“

Mickey “What I think you’re trying to say is…you love your family. Right?”

Ben “Absolutely!”

Mickey “They know that. But what if the greatest somebody you can be is a man all in for God? What if you dove deeper into the Bible than you ever have before?”

Ben “Look man, you’re young, dude. I got kids, my wife. I can’t afford to be sitting around reading the Bible!”

Mickey “See,…You have a wife and kids and a family and responsibilities, you can’t afford NOT to read the Bible!”

Pastor “It’s one thing to know the Bible, but as you learn the Word of God, by the power of the Holy Spirit, you’re able to learn to live in obedience to it. 1 John, chapter 2 says this ‘Whoever says I know Him, but does not do what He commands is a liar and the Truth is not in that person’.”

“And when he had removed him, he raised up David to be their king, of whom he testified and said, ‘I have found in David the son of Jesse a man after my heart, who will do all my will’.”

Harvest of Faith

February 1, 2021February 1, 2021 taylorjamesalbert

“Do not be deceived: God is not mocked, for whatever one sows, that will he also reap. For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life. And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up. So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone, and especially to those who are of the household of faith.”

Love, It’s a Heart Thing, No Law Required

January 24, 2021January 24, 2021 taylorjamesalbert

“But if you are guided (led) by the [Holy] Spirit, you are not subject to the Law.

But the fruit of the [Holy] Spirit [the work which His presence within accomplishes] is love, joy (gladness), peace, patience (an even temper, forbearance), kindness, goodness (benevolence), faithfulness, Gentleness (meekness, humility), self-control (self-restraint, continence). Against such things there is no law [that can bring a charge].

And those who belong to Christ Jesus (the Messiah) have crucified the flesh (the godless human nature) with its passions and appetites and desires.

If we live by the [Holy] Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit. [If by the Holy Spirit we have our life in God, let us go forward walking in line, our conduct controlled by the Spirit.]”
