Genesis 2:7 And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. 📖📖📖📖📖📖 Job 12:10 In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind. 📖📖📖📖📖📖 Job 33:4 The Spirit of God hath made me, and the breath of the Almighty hath given me life. I hope you're all doing well, striving in the truth and seeking the kingdom of God. Our life is fast hurdling toward an end and we all need to be ready because it's coming for all of us. I love thinking about how God created mankind and breathed life in him, unlike the animals and other living things. It puts a great responsibility in mankind to be seeking this awesome creator who took His time to do that, and not only that but also sending a Savior to redeem us when we didn't / don't deserve it. See the biblical gospel HERE and test yourself, are you truly in the faith and walking in all His ways? Beware, many people think they are born again but are walking in the flesh, even doing the commands we're to do, but lacking the spirit. We had a woman tell us that she failed the 10 pt test on our website and kinda nervously laughed a bit about it but what's on that test (HERE) is just a general test to look at your life and see if it lines up with some of the commands in scripture. If it doesn't, it's not a laughing matter. Another man (homeless/drifter) said about Christ "I know Him I'm just not obeying Him". At least he admits us whereas most professed church goers (and we're finding a lot of home fellowship groups) won't admit their sins or if they do, won't admit that it will damn their souls. (The homeless people admit it though.) We parked our van in a public park and walked a couple blocks to stand outside a couple churches across the street from one another. While walking I saw that word 'hair' made out in the rocks and the sign about being a hair color specialist. It made me remember how wonderful it is to be set free from all that. I was trapped in of it before Christ, having to get just the right cut every 6 weeks so that it kept styling well, coloring it to make it look better, getting the expensive hair products that make it sleek and shiny etc. PRIDE and VANITY! If you're born again child of God, a woman seeking to be holy unto the Lord, one (just one) of the many things He calls us to do is cover our head / hair / glory. To not do that is rebellion against a holy God who calls us to be holy of which you are claiming to try to be, but aren't in that area. I've never met a woman that was truly serving the Lord and the ONLY thing she didn't do was cover her head...there's usually a LOT more sin going on because she has a heart problem. Genesis 6:5 And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. Nothing new under the sun...mankind still has a wicked heart. People like that like signs like this..... YOU, being with YOU and understanding YOU and giving YOU what YOU want...is what the world and satan's kingdom is all about. Seek the Lord for this.... Ezekiel 11:19-20 And I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within you; and I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them an heart of flesh: That they may walk in my statutes, and keep mine ordinances, and do them: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God. Not this.... Ezekiel 11:21 But as for them whose heart walketh after the heart of their detestable things and their abominations, I will recompense their way upon their own heads, saith the Lord God. After we passed the 'hair' shop, we walked past this cemetary... Every year we walk out this faith life and add thousands and thousands of people upon our witnessing, we see how truly dead the world is...which makes the lights of true saints shine even brighter. Matthew 13:43 Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear. I was looking through my old blog for something and came across this..... I don't use that word 'sister' lightly and I hope some of you reading this (I'd like to hope all of you but we know 'few') truly are my sister in the Lord. I pray for all the saints worldwide, that they are striving on and I hope that includes you. We saw this sign outside of a shopping complex... I was thinking how awful that sign is, not bringing glory to the Lord but instead making a worldly mockery of it by using a worldly term of insurance to 'save a soul'. Talk about trampling the blood of Christ. I went on the website (which I erased off the picture) and it had 2 pages on it: one had a terrible gospel lacking much and the other was a contact page. Good scriptures but in the context of them being used on that website, they are twisted to make an easy believe gospel that won't save anyone's soul. It reminds me of people who think if someone says the gospel is believe and obey Jesus that 'it's just a given' that they know they need to repent. Or if someone says you believe and repent, 'it's just a given' that they know they need to obey. Or some have said that the part about being born again doesn't need to be in the gospel because God does that whenever he wants to and we don't have a part in it. Satan is the one who butchers the Word and Truth, it shouldn't be true believers so there's big clues for you. Test people's gospel and if they don't have it all then it's highly likely they don't have it all. 1 Corinthians 2:14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. I took a little walk this morning before we headed out of the HUGE (I'll say it again... HUGE) city... That picture was taken while we were headed outside of town...it's an insane mess of interstates and uncountable cars racing at high speeds, going wherever they go. Anyway, before we left I saw this balcony... It's their only space outside and they put plants on it (I dunno what else they have up there) and put it to good use. If that was me, stuck in an upper apartment, I'd have a mini garden (if possible) and create a peaceful place to be able to be outside and give God glory for His creation (that I could see anyway). It makes me think about how saints should be using what God gives them, to the fullest. Luke 16:10 He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much: and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much. That can be in many forms of our faith walk. Let us be faithful with every single thing the Lord allows us to do, think, understand, discern, ponder etc.... 1 Corinthians 12:4-7 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord. And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all. But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal. The Lord's creation is soft on the eyes and peaceful. That leaf is so big I could put both my feet on it and you'd still see it around the outside. We saw a lot of those on our walk to the churches that I was talking about earlier. ) Those flowers were about 10 feet up in the air on a bush / tree, not sure what you call it but it was pretty amazing. There's a lot of cactus in this state in certain areas, another wonderfully made creation of our heavenly Father. Those little white flowers were behind a big pillar and even though most people couldn't see them, they still continued to do what the Lord created them to do. How about us? When nobody is looking are we consistent in serving the Lord? An awesome sunset we saw while taking an evening (parking lot) walk after many days of rain, storms, fog etc. We're just out here in the world, keeping ourselves unspotted from it, striving for the Lord, loving the Lord and our neighbor and the brethren, preaching the gospel, doing the works the Lord created us to do (even my godly women's works which are important too:), seeking the kingdom of God, being unmovable and holding fast that which we have in the truth... How about you? 2 Thessalonians 3:13 But ye, brethren, be not weary in well doing. Day in and day out there are many things we do that are the same but doesn't nature teach us the same thing also? Don't grow weary in doing your good works unto Him and don't diminish the good works that women do as we see in Titus 2 and Proverbs 31. (You can see a little bit of mine HERE.)Those are great works unto the Lord that cannot be overlooked and while we do them, we should be doing them unto Him. Don't look to just hurry and get things done so you can do the next thing....do that one task in front of you with joy and thanksgiving, not worrying about the next one lest you (or me) rob God of the glory and thanksgiving we could have given Him.
