Looking Through A Glass Darkly
The danger of a multicultural society that has no singular cultural system of foundation or ideology. In short, a nation that forgets God will be overrun by the ungodly masquerading as a religion of peace.
When you turn your ears away from hearing the truth, you will start to believe a lie, there can be only one way to the father and that way has already been told to us. That way has already been demonstrated bought and paid for in blood, death, and resurrection.
Don't be ashamed now my friend because the whole world has gone mad and common-sense is lost as men gaze into the screens of their mobile devices.
No one seems to have a grasp or an ounce of basic truth and understanding, it is like the world has been covered in a blanket of doubt fear, and unbelief. The love and lust for pleasure is now a commodity of a business. Morality is at an all-time low running along the bottom line of men's consciences. We simply allow the evil and profane splutterences of the depraved as we call it art and entertainment.
Danger, danger cries our night dreams but who listens and when will you shake yourself away from the singularity? This is the soundings of a world without God plunging into greater deception not knowing what is truth and what to believe, for who will you trust?
As it was in the days of Noah so shall it be at the coming of the son of man. You hear that? the son of man: the one who identifies with you and who knows your pain and hurt. The son of man who was and is God in the flesh manifested and revealed for your salvation, yes he came back to get you, to take you in his loving arms. But will you believe it, the world doesn't, who cares? Just run to Him in prayer and let him set you free in your mind and spirit from this matrix. Familiar words beating down your spine and part of you know that Jesus is your only hope and stay. So yeah you really don't need another sermon but you really, really do need God because nothing else is working. Nothing else will.
Watch out for the so-called Peace proclaimers, there is only one prince of peace.
When they shall say peace, peace then comes sudden destruction... They promise you peace while they hold a sword to your throat and command you to submit. This is the work of an occult, this is not the God and father of Jesus Christ who loved us and gave himself a ransom for us. Do not be deceived God is not mocked, they will reap what they have sown.
Who are they, by the way, they are none other than the ones who deny the father and the son, the spirit and theme of this age, the Godless society whose creative endeavors only drive a wedge between you and your maker. Run I say run from them and take fast hold of the word of God and turn your heart to believe the only one truth. That Jesus Christ is the son of God and that he is the savior of the world.

SOWING & REAPING
The world was born by the act of giving. This act of giving is sown into the very fabric and concepts of success. Nothing is for free, receiving has a pending withdrawal as responsibility is passed on. if your heart desires to be in a place of integrity you wont be able to resist not giving. It is the farmer who gives to the field through investment and receives based on that investment, the joy of planting into good soil.
The Parable Of The Sower
4 Again Jesus began to teach by the lake. The crowd that gathered around him was so large that he got into a boat and sat in it out on the lake, while all the people were along the shore at the water’s edge. 2 He taught them many things by parables, and in his teaching said: 3 “Listen! A farmer went out to sow his seed. 4 As he was scattering the seed, some fell along the path, and the birds came and ate it up. 5 Some fell on rocky places, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly, because the soil was shallow. 6 But when the sun came up, the plants were scorched, and they withered because they had no root. 7 Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the plants, so that they did not bear grain. 8 Still other seed fell on good soil. It came up, grew and produced a crop, some multiplying thirty, some sixty, some a hundred times.”
This chapter continues to expand on the meaning of the parable of the sower and you will do well to check it out. Mark 4:1-20

PRAY & SPEAK LIKEWISE
No matter the situation and how long it's been going on, you must pray and speak life giving words. Pray but do not speak in contradiction to your prayers. Either as a joke or in gossip. Line up you words with the word of God and with your prayers. It may seem foreign for you to make declarations regarding your life and circumstances but that's because as human beings we don't live up to the image God has set for us. And as Christians we many times fail to walk in the spirit.
It's not natural to walk in the spirit because our flesh is always or most of the time against the spirit. Speaking in tongues when you don't even feel like praying in English. Sometimes it takes hours for us to get off the bed to pray despite the desire to pray. So you must act in faith, in faith because it's the only way to get results the flesh cant and is not willing for you to go the extra mile to get. You have to believe the word and fashion your life to it and by it. life as in the way you usually go about your daily life.
The world is getting darker and the allure of carnality is getting stronger and less perceptible. It all seems logical and human, no ultimate wrong or right, just opinions and standpoints. But in God it's not so. So work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. let us mind the words we speak knowing that they do indeed have power to bring life or invoke death. We were made in the image of God and as he spoke the world into existence, so we must be on guard when we thus open our mouths.
Make a New Start Today
Take some time today and pray to God confessing all the idle words you've spoken, repent of every word spoken in negativity and death. Thank God and worship him for his great mercy in keeping you despite your words. Then as you pray now make new declarations in line with what God has already declared is yours and has promised to you. Confess the truth of who God says that you are and declared it t the atmosphere. Speak life into your life as told to you by God, agree with God in your prayers and declarations. Stand on the the words of God and believe them with your whole heart. it will be done and as you change your speech in line with your prayers all lining up with the word of God, your situation will have no choice but to change. No matter what the outcome just give God all the glory.
Your Father Loves You
God is your father and loves you with an everlasting love. 1 John 3:1

DEALING WITH TEMPTATION
GOD IS BIGGER THAN YOUR TEMPTATION
God will not suffer you to be tempted above what you are able, but will with that temptation make a way of escape so that you will be able to bear it. 1 Corinthians 10:13
Prayer is Key
Prayer is the key. It is in the humbling of our selves that we find those ways that God has prepared for our escape. Sometimes it's simply to run, like Joseph had to do when he was confronted with Potiphar's wife. A man is tempted when he is drawn away of his own lust and enticed the word of God says, so Being honest with God about ourselves is an important first step. Trying to be strong within our own selves is like trying to win a basketball match alone, your facing five opposing team players all on your own, it's impossible.
God knows your weakness before you do, but he allows you to discover just how weak we are so that we will surrender our weaknesses to him. So that you will recognize that without him, you can do nothing.
Who Has The Final Say?
Jesus is the author and finisher of our faith, he started it and he has the power to bring you to completeness in faith, he makes you perfect in him, you can never be perfect in yourself. Trying to please God in your feeble strength wont be enough. But still God requires you to be perfect. See this word perfect as Determined, Relentless in pursuing God, not letting go of him despite of how many times you fail or fall down. Having a perfect heart towards God despite you weakness, because it's not about how strong you are but how strong he is. God said to Paul that his Grace is sufficient for him. So Paul determined that he would Glory in his weakness so that God's power would rest on him.
Lord I Need You
Remember when Peter said to Jesus, "Then, Lord," Simon Peter replied, "not just my feet but my hands and my head as well!" John 13:9 Mmm so let our hearts yearn for him so that temptation will loose it's grip on us as we take it all to him in prayer.
Jesus Christ used the word of God as his defense when Satan tried to lure him into following his suggestions. There was nothing in Jesus that Satan could use as a temptation, there was no sin nor sinful desires in Christ that Satan could use as a tool against him. So Satan tried to distort the word of God, he tried to capitalize on the fact that Jesus was indeed very hungry and exhausted. If the Devil cant get you to outwardly walk away from God he will try to cause you to inwardly walk away from God. He will attack you in your mind, doubts, fears to exploit them in you in order to wreck your faith.
Humility's Work
Some think that being humble is a weakness but that's not true at all. Humility is the secret sword: You should never be ashamed to use the secret sword. I call it the secret sword because God sees it and it hurts the enemy every time you use it. The only way to use the secret sword is by placing it in God's hand. Allowing God to have his way in your life, God wins your battles. Sometimes your job is to just praise the Lord or just sing and make melody in your heart to the Lord, or to keep silent and stand firm. Either way, sin will not have dominion over you because if God is for you, who can be against you? No one, sure they will try and may even cause you o stumble but the ultimate victory is yours. God wont let them win over you because they will have to go through him first! And that victory is already won. Romans 8

COMING THROUGH
Today if you are tempted to turn away your ears and heart from the voice of God, Don't, it's the Enemy speaking!
Luke 4
Jesus Christ was led of the spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil, he fasted for 40 days and nights and during that time Satan came to him to tempt him. Jesus was hungry, the natural need of man and the need to fulfil what the body wants and needs was upon him. Sometimes the thing you hunger for the most can be a source of trial in your life, either the waiting for it, or the longing after it. Hunger, Jesus Christ was hungry, there was that time when the disciples begged him and urged him to eat and he said to them that he has meat that they do not know of. They looked at each other and asked each other if someone had given him food. Jesus was speaking of the fulfilment of doing God's will. Hunger was embroiled in his satisfaction at keeping his father's will, at completing his mission, to fully obey God the father. John 4
Know When the Voice of the Devil is Speaking, it's distinctly selfish.

Hunger was embroiled in his satisfaction at keeping his father's will, at completing his mission, to fully obey God the father. John 4
Know When the Voice of the Devil is Speaking, it's distinctly selfish.
So Satan comes with his very first temptation, 'If you are the son of God, then command that these stones be made bread. ( Why are you fasting, aren't you the son of God? why are starving yourself, use your power to make bread of these stones) Tempted to meet your own needs instead of relying or waiting on God. If you are the son of God then you surely have the right to make bread and feed yourself! God promises to take care of you but in spite all we do at times we want to do it all, there are some things God wants you to rely on him for, there are some things that will never come into our hand unless we learn to completely depend on God. Depending on God will teach you to obey him fully. The temptation to meet your own need instead of obeying God is the trial of your faith. Satan comes to tempt you out of God's best for you, just like he did with Eve then to Adam in the garden of Eden.
How One is Tempted
A man is tempted when he is drawn away of his own lust and enticed. When there is a need, a longing, a hunger, then your enticed into taking steps to attain satisfaction. Your mind kicks in and you start fantasising and creating an image in your mind of how where and when. Your in deep dodo now and your too blind to see what's happening. That's why denying yourself is so hard to do, patients is a hard virtue to learn, because it asks you to deny yourself. Give your will, remain where you are till God leads you to move. If Jesus Christ had yielded to just one of the Satan's suggestions, that would have been the end of the human race. Remember that he was lead of the spirit into the wilderness, to be tempted of the devil. It was his time to face the dark one, the key moment and the passage of time it took to come through the trials.
All in Christ
Everyone of of God's children will enter that valley, that wilderness, that time of trials. We have an advocate with the father, the man Christ Jesus, he been there and can help us in our time of trial. Sometimes we fail and God picks us up, then the time comes round again and we are tried again and again till we learn to only lean on God. The trial of our faith works patients, but we must let patients have it's perfect work so that we will be perfect and complete wanting nothing. God allows you to go through so that you will come through. The potter fashions something out of clay and the clay has to go through the process of being pressed and shaped and watered and spun and broken and rebuilt and on and on. But that's not it yet, the clay have come through the oven to be deemed complete, wanting nothing. Some people give up at the going through stage, they don't make it to the coming through stage.
Luke 4:1-4
Your coming through is not just about you, it's about the God in you who brings you through, it is by him that you come through. Your coming through will also be a source of help to the many souls who feel their alone, it will be a double wammy of victory displaying the power of God.
Learning to lean on God is and will be your life line in this life.
The process will teach you that you can depend on God's word, that you can and will live by his word. That his words are true and without it your nothing really. You will learn that his word is spirit and that it is life, you will not only read his word but you will start praying his word. His word will become your very life. You will come to realise that your life is not just a matter of eating and drinking, that it takes more than food to sustain living. You will come to understand Jesus's answer to the devil. That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.

A DECEPTIVE TREND
THE TRENDS OF THE WORLD WILL ONE DAY DECEIVE THE MASSES.
Visit the link below to listen to podcasts, may you be blessed and inspired as you study the word of God and get prepared for all that is to come.
Audio Podcast link here: That I May Know Him (Podcast)
Someone said Transhumanism is the melding of man and machine, like a Transformer only better, Better than RoboCop! sounds like Evil science to me. As the days of Noah, oh yes it is and worst. What could not be achieved back then will be achieved in our future, the evil plans of the fallen ones on this world? The deceptive onslaught of science without Godliness. It is written that God will give them over to their imaginations.
Do you realize that man sleeping man and woman sleeping with a woman is a result of God has given them over to their imaginations? That because you reject the truth of God, he let you corrupt yourself in those things he has commanded you not to be involved in? The children of disobedience. That having known that God is holy and to be worshipped they have turned their ears away from the truth and have fallen into depravity, then when someone tells them about God and Jesus they have their own wisdom to justify why they live the way they do. That's God giving them over to their own lusts. In that God allows them to be just the way they want to be. That's why they can't hear your words and are unable to have a reasonable conversation with you. Reprobate mind, void of Judgement, like an animal. Everything is carnal and sensual, it's wisdom but not from God. They can argue with you and even seemingly proving their point, they have an answer for the purest reply you make. Like as if you're talking to a stone wall. Hearts that are given over.
A Fearful Position to be in
This is without a doubt a deadly place and position to be in as a human being. That God gives you what you want because you reject his will. Don't let that be your fate, my friend. The wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ. Hear God's word today and heed its warnings open your heart and repent of your sins. Understand that this world will be judged not because God hates you but because sin has a price and it's never to your advantage. Only to your detriment.
Repent/Turn and go in the other Direction
God loves you and the only way for you to get right with him is by admitting your wrong and surrender your heart to Jesus Christ. Ask him to come into your heart and into your life and save you. My friend, if you do this God will save you from the crown of your heart to the soles of your feet and make you a new creature in Christ Jesus. God will save you and turn you around and give you peace and put his love in your heart. God will give you eternal life, you were made to live forever, to live forever with him. God is your loving heavenly father and Jesus Christ is your Lord and savior. When Jesus Returns, and he will whether your alive or dead, he will call your name and if your faithful to remain with him from your heart, you will hear his voice, and his power will raise you up to meet him.
John 11:25
25 Jesus said unto her, “I am the resurrection and the Life. He that believeth in Me, though he were dead, yet shall he live;
26 and whosoever liveth and believeth in Me shall never die. Believest thou this?”
