The Garden Of Surrender And Healing 

Luke 22:40-42:  40: When he was at the place, he said unto them, Pray that ye enter not into temptation. 41 And he was withdrawn from them about a stone’s cast, and kneeled down, and prayed, 42 Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless, not my will, but thine, be done.

 Bring your heartache and hurts, your anxiety, your fear, your trauma, to Jesus, He went through it all for us while on earth. In the garden, there is healing for our soul. Jesus experienced sorrows, and He’s acquainted with our grief. In the garden of surrender is not only pain, but there is healing and restoration because God’s plan is perfect.

 Ps 43:5 Why art thou cast down, O my soul? And why art thou disquieted within me? Hope in God: for I shall yet praise him, Who is the health of my countenance, and my God.

Thank you Jesus

2 Cor 4:18 while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal.

 We have a bright future in Jesus name; I will not dwell on things; I can see Paul reflects on God’s promises and the hope of the resurrection in Christ. The trials, afflictions, persecutions, my brothers and sisters, they are all temporary. Thank you, Jesus, for unveiling our eyes to the truth of the Word of God; we can see through the lies, the devil is the father of all lies, and he is the author of confusion. I'm grateful to be delivered from the power of sin thank you, Jesus, I'm born again.  

Heb 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

“Whereas righteousness exalteth a nation, while sin is a reproach to any people. … And I do further recommend that on that occasion the whole people make confession of our national sins against His infinite goodness, and with one heart and one mind implore the divine guidance in the ways of national virtue and holiness.” Abraham Lincoln, 1865

The Spirit God Says COME

Tonight I hear the Spirit of God say to the Church, “Put aside your pettiness, fears, doubts, opinions, anxiety and come to Jesus for our time has come to surrender and see through the smokescreen of deception and bow before our King, He is the Lord of the Host.”

Matt 11:28: “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” 29: “Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.” 30: “For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”

Rev. 22:17: “And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will let him take the water of life freely.”

Our invitation has come to us, the redeemed, to look to our Jesus the Messiah.

Father, I will look beyond the smokescreen and look to Jesus, my Lord, and Savior.

Delivered through the shed blood of Jesus Christ - A prophetic Word

In our last Devotional, I spoke to you about how the Lord Jesus delivers from sin and from becoming a slave to it. In this devotional, I want to give you a prophetic word from the Lord. I want to introduce you to someone; his name is The Man of Sin, also known as The Son of Perdition         

2 Thess 2:3. Statements are being made worldwide because of this epidemic, one being “we need a world reset.” These statements have shown me we are near the one-world system. This Man of Sin represents a system that denies Jesus Christ, whether secular, governmental, political, or religious. Any system that causes distrust toward Jesus Christ for our salvation, we are not to embrace that system. The person behind the scenes is The Man of Sin. In 2 Thess 2:1-12, The bible tells us in the last days we are not to be shaken in our minds or troubled in our spirit because there will be deception and strong delusion. Any system that rejects faith in Christ Jesus is sin and comes from The Man of Sin, The Son of Perdition. Not only did Jesus save us from becoming a slave to sin personally, but He also saved us from any system that denies Him. Thank you, Jesus, you set us free.

Consider this a Word from the Lord to you.

Clean through the word of God, by the Holy Spirit.

The Holy Spirit sanctifies us as we live in daily obedience to His Word and to His Spirit.  

John 15:1-3 I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. 2 Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. 3 Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.

John 17:17 Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.

Sanctify Refers to God’s work to set His people apart for His purposes.

Eph 5:18; Col 3:16; 1 Peter 1:22; 2 Cor 3:18.

Moving Forward in Faith

Gal 2:20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless, I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. 

Because Christ lives in me, I can live by faith and not by sight. I will no be moved by what I see, feel, and hear I will be driven by what I believe you're the Christ the Son of the living God. 

I Will Live In Jesus Name.

“Only in the Cross of Christ will we receive power when we are powerless. We will find strength when we are weak. We will experience hope when our situation is hopeless. Only in the Cross is there peace for our troubled hearts.” -Michael Youssef

Paul states that he has died to the values of the world: selfishness, ambition, and pride.  Gal 6:14 But God forbid that I should boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.
