The word of God is life

To walk in love and stand for righteousness. Anything outside of Jesus is false, doesn’t belong to his right way of living and that is his domain. We are his sheep of his pasture.

Now, Jesus does say if He chooses to keep John here until He comes, what is it to us and that He had an even greater witness that would testify. Those two pieces of scripture have been impressed upon my heart for a long time.

Whoever has the son, has the sun inside. The light that is the light for all men. , The passion inside – the Holy Spirit guides and leads into all truth. Who is the truth? The Father. Who is the way ? Jesus 👑. Who is life? The Holy Spirit. What is the water of life? What quenches thirst? His spirit. What is the dove? A symbol of life- completion after the flood, beginning of Jesus’ ministry and baptism by John. Alpha and Omega- over and over again.

That’s the problem. I didn’t know my enemy. I thought everyone loved Jesus like I did and had been rescued from the wickedness that was outside of them, that had been accepted as their own. They knew the light even before knowing. You made me in my Mother’s womb-

Jesus is the first of the God begotten. The God begotten are revealed at the time of the end.

You can call out falsehood and allow for repentance and turning.

Because of Jesus.

God wants all to be saved. SAVED. My experience has been HARROWING on earth with just trying to live like I’m supposed to FOR God.

is Jeremiah wanting to be a prophet? Is Amos? Not Moses, how about Jonah?- the life of the prophet I see is a tall order, a big Ask, an undeniable relationship, an authority tethered in suffering – I see reluctance and needing to be filled in order to do the work of Jesus who is, was and is forever.

All things were made for him, by him and for good. His love made all by fighting through the void.

I’ve fought through gelatinous and unrelenting holds that darkness has had on my life and the condition of my heart and mind to do the Lord’s will-

Love him.

If you love him, you won’t chop him up and disperse only the parts that don’t offend. That’s counter productive and blasphemy. The word of God cleanses of ALL unrighteousness

Which is

The love of money, the lust of the flesh, the pride of life and apathy leading to cruelty.

His ASK. Shouldn’t be daunting. Why is it? You are afraid of man and moreover, you make the Devil your god by fearing him over trusting God and being in his statutes that protect.

Love God and it’s not a request, it’s a compulsion to exercise compassion, yet be firm in his foundation that cannot be destroyed.

Lean not on your own understanding. It is limited for a reason and more is only accessed through God’s Holy Spirit for his Kingdom and our protection.

The origins of the heavens and the wonder of principles and design in life. The seed and it’s fruit. Death and what becomes.

Anything that leads you away from the word by taking away or adding is false. Be warned of anything false within first. Leading from his just, right hand helps us be merciful and assertive when needed.  My beautiful sister stuck her neck out because she recognized an  afront to the glory of God by way of multiple, small and large- grievances. It is painful to discuss a matter publicly that should have been stopped or redirected privately, 250 years ago for America.

Our current atmosphere is begging for redemption and it will come, again and then, never.

The Devil and his Demons represent the antinthisis of The Almighty and his Angels YET

ARE NO MATCH. They are no more. The kingdom of darkness is defeated.

Who is the conquerer? Jesus. Who is sent out and conquers in the beginning of Revelation? The white horse. Who comes back on white horses? His people. The pale horse, the black and red follow are in the middle. Start and finish.

Michael the Archangel and the 2 witnesses. The period of time that is unlike any other. Not in Ecclesiastes except that Solomon confirmed it was indeed different and a time  where man would be in hostile relationship.

Currently, the harvest is ripe and should be picked for wonderful jams.

The Lord is a respector of hearts.

Will you lay down Issac? Your very own son or daughter? Your livelihood? Your very food and shelter -Cain or Abel?The answer for me has been yes and for those I follow closely.

I could care less about the particulars of most of society. None of my joy is gleaned from material possessions, I do cherish beauty. I say that now more emphatically because of what God asked me to release. Everything. If you belong to him, nothing can impede his purpose but, you will have circumstances that delay ( Paul) these sufferings are hindrances that judge the evil and refine the pure in heart.

God is making a people that are remarkable and resplendent with his gifts of the spirit for those ready to follow.

There were several posts around those linked that snapped me to share right now. It’s not just a false teaching or an ideology. The integrity of all that is within will see the rider on the horse and deal with the repercussion of feeding death or greed or lust.

If you take out any part of the Bible, the written word of God that somehow has survived and somehow saves in the best way you don’t really love people.

Prophets love people and weep for them, pray for them and run because of how much they carry.

They are isolated in prisons and islands where they can’t affect people in a good way- they still do. They don’t die ( Elijah) They do die (John the Baptist) They conquer their enemies ( David to Jesus)

Jesus died and his death isn’t beyond another suffering servant. It isn’t the torture He survived as a man, it is that He did it as God- in our place. Emblematic in the living, the death and resurrection for those written in the lambs book of life. Over use of the torture of Christ is to scare and manipulate not having true godliness to inform and relentlessly affirm God’s will for man without excuse.

Defend God. Defend his way, his truth and the life you have been given. Where is there room for another? I’ve paid for not knowing this to my core. God relieves you of fear of man which causes you to sin by choosing alternate ways, believing falsehoods and worshipping false gods that make you pay.

If it is plain as day, your feet move in the right direction. If your peace is intact, if you hunger for the word,  you seek his will, live righteousness, love your brother’s and sister’s, speak up and out and are fine with  quiet and still- there is agreement.

Offense with family? What?! The scripture pertains to one being offended by the gospel. Strife is not of his doing. Being of one accord is very important to striding. A humble spirit is accommodating and looks to elevate through weaving complimentary  vessels of God’s spirit of grace and reconciliation without the strings of religion or pastoral perversion ( love all appointed offices)

Humans are the crowning jewel of all of God’s creation. Knowledge of his vision for our merge into a marriage, the Morning Star and the new heavens and earth- Going all the way back, where is Mom? Jesus leaves his Father and Mother and starts a new family. The first fruits belong to the Father. Who really knows the destination except that Jesus came to return us to the Father and to marry his bride. Relationally, it’s been unwinding from and letting God open my heart and mind because I’ve sought the real. Something feels way off in the trajectory. The darkness has way too much say so. The narrative is way too dark for it to not be the end. Who am I? What are you doing Lord- except, I trust you. I’m at peace.Ive felt his displeasure and his warm, combustion of an embrace. I’ve been disciplined for being distracted and loved back to life, protected from every snare.

I’m a survivor of infant to toddler sexual abuse and every decade of life beyond. I have been exploited for worldly gain and God is my stalwart friend. I never blame God for rebellion and I hold myself responsible for anything I give into that threatens my submission to his CARE. I share because wickedness in the form of lust shattered me, only God’s love heals completely with nothing missing. There are all forms of evil that compounded my pain and plight to overcome, to show God’s glory- not to turn into a hatred or revenge. There lies the turn- which way do you choose? God is. Your choice is to follow within your autonomous nature and not thwart his work within, that you might move mountains with your faith- even if it looks like nothing.

I serve Jesus willingly and with complete joy. He has made me glad! What you pray for reveals and relinquishes the control to God.

Light yoke

Shepherd. Lead. Live. Love and laugh. Cry, keep and release. Whatever is lovely. Whatever is kind, good report, peace keeping and free from corruption.

When we lead in Christ we win. We can’t be taken out of the Father’s hand- He wills that you live and show salvation on full display unhindered in your spirit, unhinged to the world and truly free.

Treating others in the way you want to be treated applies I would think mostly to your child within. How on earth could anyone interfere with salvation except that they had nothing of God in them. Deception is a blinding of the heart. A mind fixed on anything other than God is vulnerable. Jealousy, hatred and resentment Kindle a fire for self justification that is unaware of its own misery that motions to strike itself.

God AVENGES. It isn’t ok and doesn’t continue.

Back to rapture in the story. I believe it is on the heels of what is not for the church faithful to the bridegroom. The bride does have her veil torn after a brief time of waiting and preparation ( song of Solomon ) if you only read the red letters in the Bible, this wouldn’t be considered – among numerous old testament references I have already made, tying the old with the new, taking the warnings in the old testament for the current confirmation. If you chop up the word for any reason, you have blood on your hands.

Stay fresh and green. Lithe and nimble. A doer and a listener, a leader and an easy, breezy team member. Stay in it and stand back- run with the spirit and do not attempt to put it out- no reason could be even available for observation.

The word of God is the authority. Jesus is the completion of all prophecy because it will not be necessary anymore in the time to come and with his fulfillment. Who is happy for Jesus? We can’t even celebrate his birthday without making it about money and our presents.

I am touching on that since I’ve designed Christmas cards- I don’t feel like I used to about most of it and I don’t want to be a hypocrite. 

I’ll keep my house 🏠 n order by the grace of God ❤️🙏 you must stay vigilant.

Support one another 💝

Lay down anything outside the pasture where it is PERFECT.

The Word of God Is Life
By [Your Name]
“Do not grow weary in doing good, for in due season we shall reap, if we do not lose heart.” Galatians 6:9
The Way of Life
To walk in love and stand for righteousness is to walk with Christ.
Anything outside of Jesus is false and does not belong to His way of life. We are His sheep, the sheep of His pasture, and He remains the Good Shepherd who leads us into truth.
For many years I have reflected on Christ’s words regarding John: “If I will that he remain till I come, what is that to you?” Those words, together with the witness that points to Jesus, have stayed impressed upon my heart.
The Word of God is not merely information. It is life.
Who is the Truth? The Father.
Who is the Way? Jesus Christ.
Who is Life? The Holy Spirit.

The Spirit guides us into all truth, satisfies the deepest thirst of the soul, and reveals the nature of God to those who seek Him.
The dove, appearing at Christ’s baptism, symbolizes both completion and beginning. It speaks of life after judgment, peace after the flood, and the opening of Jesus’ earthly ministry.
Alpha and Omega.
Beginning and end.
Again and again, God’s purposes reveal themselves through His Word.

The Cost of Following God
God desires that all would be saved.
Yet obedience is rarely comfortable.
When I consider the prophets, I do not see people chasing titles or seeking recognition. I see ordinary people answering extraordinary calls.
Was Jeremiah eager to become a prophet?
Was Jonah?
Was Moses?
The prophetic life is not a pursuit of status. It is a relationship with God that often requires sacrifice, humility, and endurance. God’s servants frequently find themselves carrying burdens that cannot be understood apart from His presence.
All things were made through Him and for Him.
Love endured.
Love persevered.
Love entered the darkness and overcame it.
Like many others, I have struggled through seasons of hardship, confusion, and spiritual warfare while attempting to follow God’s will. Yet through every trial, Christ remained faithful.
If we love Him, we must love the whole of what He teaches, not only the portions that make us comfortable.

The Heart That God Sees
The harvest is ripe.
The Lord is a respecter of hearts.
The question has never been whether God can provide, protect, or sustain. The question is whether we trust Him enough to surrender what we value most.
Would you lay down your Isaac?
Would you surrender comfort for obedience?
Would you trust God when the cost is not theoretical but deeply personal?
Scripture repeatedly demonstrates that God examines the condition of the heart behind every offering.
Cain and Abel.
Abraham and Isaac.
Again and again, the issue is not external performance but internal devotion.
Material possessions may come and go, but they cannot become our foundation.
Trials expose motives.
Difficulties refine character.
Hardship often accomplishes what comfort cannot.
God is preparing a people who are responsive to His Spirit and willing to follow wherever He leads.

Truth and Falsehood
Falsehood is not limited to incorrect doctrine.
Falsehood is anything that draws a person away from God’s character and God’s Word.
The love of money.
The lust of the flesh.
The pride of life.
Apathy that leads to cruelty.
These things gradually pull the heart away from God.
The Word of God cleanses us.
The Spirit of God corrects us.
And the grace of God restores us.
Many people fear man more than they fear God. Yet fear itself becomes a master when it governs our choices.
Trust the Lord.
Lean not on your own understanding.
Human wisdom is limited. God’s wisdom is not.
Creation itself testifies that there is order, purpose, and design beyond our comprehension.
Anything that adds to God’s Word or subtracts from it leads people away from truth.

Redemption and Spiritual Conflict
Our world longs for redemption.
We see brokenness everywhere: within individuals, families, institutions, and nations.
Yet redemption belongs to God.
The kingdom of darkness presents itself as powerful, but it is not equal to God.
It never has been.
It never will be.
Jesus Christ remains victorious.
He is the conqueror.
He is the rider who goes forth in righteousness.
He is the One before whom every enemy ultimately falls.
The testimony of Revelation is not a message of defeat but of victory.
The victory belongs to Christ.A Personal Testimony
My words are not merely theological observations.
They are rooted in experience.
I have known exploitation.
I have known injustice.
I have known suffering.
I have known seasons where darkness seemed determined to define my future.
Yet God remained faithful.
He protected me from many snares.
He corrected me when I wandered.
He loved me back to life when I was broken.
What darkness intended for destruction, God used for healing.
His love dismantled fortresses built by fear, shame, and pain.
I discovered that restoration does not come through revenge.
It comes through surrender.
There is always a decision before us.
Will we choose bitterness or forgiveness?
Pride or humility?
Truth or deception?
Every life eventually encounters that crossroads.The Example of Christ
The prophets loved people.
They wept for people.
They prayed for people.
Elijah endured.
John the Baptist endured.
David endured.
And Christ endured.
The cross remains the ultimate witness to God’s love.
Jesus suffered, died, and rose again.
The gospel is not manipulation.
The gospel is not control.
The gospel is not exploitation.
The gospel is reconciliation between God and humanity through Jesus Christ.
Because of Him, redemption is possible.
Because of Him, restoration is possible.
Because of Him, hope remains.
The Bride and the Bridegroom
The story of Scripture moves toward reunion.
Christ and His Bride.
Faithfulness and fulfillment.
Preparation and promise.
The Church is called to readiness.
Not fear.
Not performance.
Not religious appearance.
Readiness.
God’s Word stands complete and trustworthy.
We are called to remain teachable, discerning, humble, and faithful.
The fulfillment of prophecy is found in Christ.
He is both the foundation and the destination.
His Yoke Is Light
Jesus has taught me the beauty of surrender.
When we relinquish control and trust Him fully, peace follows.
His yoke is light.
His burden is easy.
His Spirit produces what corruption never can:
Love.
Joy.
Peace.
Kindness.
Faithfulness.
Freedom.
There is no lasting peace apart from Him.
There is no lasting hope apart from Him.
There is no lasting life apart from Him.Final Exhortation
Treat others as you would want your own child treated.
Walk in kindness.
Pursue peace.
Reject resentment.
Reject jealousy.
Reject self-justification.
Trust God’s justice more than your own.
God avenges.
We do not.
God judges perfectly.
We do not.
Our responsibility is faithfulness.
Continue doing good.
Continue loving others.
Continue following Christ.
Do not grow weary.
For in due season we shall reap, if we do not lose heart.
The Word of God is life. ∎
