Remaining Focused~

John 10:10 "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." Blessings People of God. We all know this passage and clearly understand what the enemy is trying to do still today. This is the enemy job and its our job to keep both eyes, feet, hands, mind- lifestyle focused on Christ, Amen?

Understand when the enemy comes to steal kill and destroy remember its to easy for it to do against the physical--ITS THE SPIRITUAL its after!! Has the enemy recently stolen your Spiritual eyesight? Has the enemy recently killed what Faith/Hope you were holding on to?

David is always been a very good example to learn from when we slip. With him being a "man after Gods heart" we to can learn from his slip ups. In 1 Chronicles 21:1-4 "And Satan stood up against Israel, and provoked David to number Israel. And David said to Joab and to the rulers of the people, Go, number Israel from Beersheba even to Dan; and bring the number of them to me, that I may know it. And Joab answered, The LORD make his people an hundred times so many more as they be: but, my lord the king, are they not all my lord's servants? why then doth my lord require this thing? why will he be a cause of trespass to Israel? Nevertheless the king's word prevailed against Joab. Wherefore Joab departed, and went throughout all Israel, and came to Jerusalem."

You know that Joab was nephew to King David and was made captain of the army. He was not even a Prophet but he had some spiritual sense to tell the King, his uncle, the Lord make his people hundred times so many more as they be (more than what the eye could see). When satan STOOD up against Israel and PROVOKED King David to do this thing David indeed lost his eyesight. Yes David got full of himself, all puffed up and no where to blow. He looked towards the number of people he had by the way of strength instead of remaining FOCUSED of the Lord.

The Lord truly blessed me with wonderful-faithful-God fearing Sisters on FB that has more than once quoted this scripture to me "and two put ten thousand to flight" to remind me God is doing all the work behind the scenes. So blessed people of God whatever the enemy has MOMENTARILY stolen from you DEMAND it back in Jesus name and proceed forward!

  I come to exhort you by the mighty hand of God to go on with the Lord. Spirit speaking- "A lot of people are getting discouraged because they are looking at how big their situations or circumstances are instead of looking at what a mighty God we serve. He says that you have overestimated the enemy in your life." The enemy of your soul whole agenda is to destroy the plan of God that is concernin g your life. He knows that he can't get directly to God so he figures why not use God's people? He has no power over you; DON'T GIVE IN AND DON'T GIVE UP!! At this crucial point, there is no turning back, you've come to far to turn around now. Remember, your steps are ordered by God- follow in them. I beseech you to take up your cross and Follow Christ. I know this is an old message but the Spirit of the Lord said to "remind them again". Don't allow anyone to come in and shake you off the path God has predestined for you! For the ho...

Who's Your Friend??

-
Blessings, I want to say this in love to you all. I'm going to put this as gentle as I know how. Stop calling everyone your friend!!! Psa 27:17 "Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend.". Pro 18:24 "A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother." The Lord Jesus Christ gave us the definition of a true friend: "Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends if you do what I command. I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master's business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you" (John 15:13-15). The Lord reminded me of the four friends that went all the way out of their way to help a true friend to be healed by the Lord. Mark 2:4 "And when they could not come nigh unto him for the press, they unc...

We know that the devil comes to exploit weaknesses and if you leave cracks and crevices open, he will squeeze his way in without notification.  His job is to steal, kill and destroy the plan of God that is predestined for your life.  He is very conniving and very deceptive in his approach and we as believers must make sure that we guarded with the whole armor of God at all times.  In this day, he is coming stronger with more force but he only possesses the power that you give him.  If you do not entertain him or his little friends, then he won't have any power to overtake you. Deuteronomy 28:7 says "The LORD shall cause thine enemies that rise up against thee to be smitten before thy face: they shall come out against thee one way, and flee before thee seven ways." The devil has already lost but he is trying to take as many with him as he can, apparently just to hurt God. And however much the devil succeeds in doing this, God hurts -- like a parent does over los...
