What Will You Do On That Day?

Been thinking of when Jesus was sharing with His disciples at the last supper, of what was about to take place, knowing His time was coming.....particularly when Jesus said to Peter on this day before the cock crows you will denigh my thrice .... (matt.26:34) Peter was so sure He would never denigh Jesus....but as we read Matthew 26 near the end we see Peter did denigh Christ 3 times (Matt. 26:69-75) ...then I get the thinking about the mark of the beast when it comes about when that day comes many will be made to take the mark and to denigh Jesus ........ If Peter was soooo devoted to Jesus but yet he still denighed Him 3 times...... who will stand on that day when they are faced with a life death choice...take the mark and denigh Jesus and live or refuse the mark and stand for Jesus and be killed......

Many will say we will worry about that when the time comes...or it won't happen in our life time......and others like myself NO I WILL NEVER DENIGH JESUS... I WILL NEVER TAKE THE MARK!! The thing is,  we may be  closer then what most think to that day......and even though many of us Christians are soo determined we will never take the mark......but in reality when faced with that choice.....how many will really stand....How many will even be awake Spiritually  during that time many will be fooled as well and believe in a lie..........It all depends on How is your relationship with God...How often are you spending time in Gods Word and in prayer??? You may think you know Him.....but in reality do you talk with Him on a dailey basis?

You see Peter had a second chance.....and later on became one of the most powerful Apostles used by God.....but when it comes to the time to accept or not the mark of the beast and the ones who decide to take it there is no second chance.... There is a lot of speculation on how this will all turn out, a new theory comes out each day.  But you can be sure of this...ANYONE who gets the mark of the beast 666 is DOOMED!  There is NO turning back, NO forgiveness, NO 2nd chances, NO redemption, No salvation!  There is no hoping that, "God will understand, He'll forgive me for taking the mark, He's merciful and He doesn't want me to lose my life. I don't have to worry, I can still be saved, right?"  WRONG!!!! Read Rev.14:9-11 ....Will have it at bottom of this note.

And for us who are Christian when we are truly faced with the choice will we stand? Some will..... but some won't....The thing is and my point is if some of you can't seem to let your light shine in this day and age..... and decide to hide it under a bushel instead..... anotherwards keep it to yourself...or be ashamed because your afraid what your friends will think or your family or just other people in general then how will you stand on the day that your told to denigh Jesus or die ?

If your scared to talk to someone about the Gospel and tell them about Jesus or just to let people know you live for God by how you live....either it be by words or actions now while its easy... or when pure pressure is being thrown at you by your friends, family or co workers and you can't stand up for whats right in Jesus.....then what will happen if you are faced with denigh Jesus or die.....what would you do if you can't buy or sell unless you get the mark...will you cave in from the pressure or will you have Faith in God and live up to the words you say "I LOVE YOU JESUS" Some will be killed for His names sake..........Jesus tells us this ....but it also says some will endure till the end. He also says we will be hated.......will you cave in to robbing food to feed your family or will you  trust God and know He will provide....even during that time it will still be wrong to steal.......Guess in reality we really won't know until we are faced with it..... I guessitmainlydepends on our walk with God....Hows your relationship with God? During that moment of Truth we will either stand and trust God or cave in because of fear and lack of Faith and denigh Christ.....Are you scared to die for Your Love of Christ?
2nd Timothy 1:7 " For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind"
I bring out this question, and lets be honest.......If you can't stand for Jesus now when its easy to......then how will you stand for Jesus during the moment of truth? When your physical life is on the line..... It will divide the ones who know Jesus personally from the ones who know about Jesus.... It will be the moment of Truth, you see so many base what they believe off of what they are told and what they accept, but very few will actually have such a Love for God and His Word they will know Him because they will be prayfully minded, they will know and study the word of God...... Many say and claim they are a Christian because they believe in God..... But yet many who even says they Love God truly don't live for God, they are more worldly then Godly, their life is more of an abomination to God instead of a life pleasing to God.....

You see we cant serve 2 masters. Many play the role but don't live life, they talk the talk but don't walk the walk.....they claim they know Jesus personally but yet don't say one word to Him, wheres the prayer life? Some can't remember when they read the Bible last....... Who will stand that day.....the ones who have a relationship with Christ the ones who have a Love for the Word the ones who pray and study and live a life according to Gods ways...... The ones who truly know Him.....and are not ashamed and openly Live for God....you see on that day when we are face to face with Jesus there is many who will think they were living a life pleasing to God....but yet Jesus still will say I know you not depart from me worker of iniquity......
Matthew 7:21-23

²¹  Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
²²  Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?

²³  And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

Are you one who is seeking the face of God ? Are you one who is prayerfully studying the word of God...... Are you standing upon the scriptures or you fooled by many traditions of man and teachings are you so full of pride that even when scripture tells you what we must do you refuse to obey, will you be one of many who will be lead to hell thinking your on the right road to heaven because you want to trust others with your salvation and be too lazy to study things out on your own to make sure what your taught is correct.......many even when showed scripture refuse to listen and decide to ignore the Word of God. Many choose the teachings of people leading them astray and believe them rather then the scriptures itself...... Lord I pray give us all a Love for your word a Love to pray and seek your face....

Make sure what you believe isn't what your told to believe......believe it because you know its Truth and you can only do that by not being lazy in your study and study the Word of God yourself..... you owe it to yourself to make sure you on the strait and narrow path.....because in the end either we go to Heaven or hell the decision is up to ourselves.

2nd Timothy 2:15 "Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of Truth.


Revelation 13:12-18
12 And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
13 And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,
14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.
15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

Revelation 14:9-11

9 And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand,
10 The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:
11 And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.

Its Time to walk the walk if your gonna talk the talk.....

Wet Paint.........But What Do Many Do? Touch it ....Why...

Wet Paint.........But What Do Many Do? Touch it ....Why...

Jesus says He is the way the Truth and the life, He tells us to cast all our cares at His feet, He says He will never leave nor forsake us, He tells us we have not because we ask not, He also encourages us when He says ask and we shall receive, knock it shall be opened unto us, seek ye shall find..... He tells us to follow Him, He tells us to denigh ourselves and take up the cross daily, He tells us to study His word, to seek His face, to put first the Kingdom of God, He tells us to Repent from our sins and become a new man. He also tells us to humble ourselves and pray, As a matter of fact He tells us a lot of things in His Word, We ALL have a choice to listen to Jesus and His Word or to reject it, He promises Great things to them who obey His Word and apply it.... He warns us of terrible things will happen to them who reject Him and His ways...... He talks of Blessing and cursing and shares examples of such in His Word. He is the same God asyesterday today and evermore.

He tells us the wages of sin equals hell, He warns us He is a jealous God, He will share His Glory with no other, He warns us of what will become of them who preach a different Gospel as He preached......He tells us not to be boastful and warns us that pride comes before a fall, He tells us of what is to come and what to expect in the future, He even shares with us His Love , His Mercy His Grace, and warns us of His anger, His wrath, He tells us of the greatness of Heaven a place He promises His children will go, A place Jesus even said to us He is preparing for us ,He also warns us of a hell a place of eternal torture for the wicked.... He promises He will return for His church and we shall be with Him forevermore, but warns many will be going to the lake of fire a place called hell, when jesus comes it will be  great to them who know Him but terrible to them who rejected Him as He warns of His wrath to come....

We as people seem to always have instinct to do things that oppose logic and common sense..... Wet paint sign....we touch it .....slow down.....many speed up.... we get told don't look at that....we look at it...... we get told the food is hot ..... we bite into it and burn our mouth....We know its stinks but yet we smell it.....Its too heavy but yet we try to lift it.....don't jump on that it will break.....what happens we jump on it and fall through....don't do that you'll get hurt.....then of course ignore the warning and get hurt...don't play with fire..... ouch got burned or started a fire........ don't put gas in that.....Ka-boom....Stop.....nah I can go a little more...Crash!!!!  We watch videos of stupid people doing stupid things and sit there and say what were they thinking.... When we as kids...and our kids get told to stop liping off or you'll be grounded....what happens we as kids continued and sometimes our kids do to....what happened gotpunished..... When we are warned something its like we think well it won;t happen to me..... if we are told not to do something, its like we ignore it, or just do the opposite"and do the very thing we are told not to, .........we have a natural born rebel within us it seems, and as we see the world and how most people are we can see that it is so evident, in the responses and the attitudes of many when faced with rules, authority, in some way or other its like the natural reaction is don't tell me what to do or not to do.... We as people can be pretty spiteful. Stubborn.......stupid..... but yet we are and intelligent being....hence why reverse phychology don't work.... people catch on to that.
A very few will learn from mistakes or actually grow up and mature out of the bad habits. But when it comes to serving God it seems like even Christians have a problem of half the stuff God wants and expects us to do, hence why all the different religions out there and the different ideas they preach what they figure is important and not important....hence why all the dead churches lacking the Spirit of God and the reason why in many churches spiritual gifts are not active.....but you see everything that Jesus said is important every word in the Bible is important, its not meant to take lightly or to pick and choose what suits us. Gods ways is Gods ways....And what He says He means and what He promises He promises and what He says He hates He hates......What He tells us not to do He actually means it, to the point that He warns us what will happen if we choose to continue doing those things. And His warnings are real..... But so is His Grace HisLove and His Mercy, To the point that He will forgive anyone during the day of Salvation.....We are in that day of Salvation now where we have His Grace,Mercy and Love. But He tells us we will reap what we sow.... There are consequences to our dis obedient actions...... kind of like when we tell our kids if they don't listen they will be punished.....We are always faced with choices and its what and how we decide to deal with them our decisions are totally up to us, each choice we make brings results good or bad.... God has giving us free will...... But that's not for us to just go and sin and enjoy sinning, its so those of us who Love God and want to Live for Him can do it by their own choice not because we are forced to obey we obey because we Love God, and benefit from Knowing that God who Loves us.

Jesus also tells us we will be hated for His names sake, He also says some will even be killed, because many will want to do harm to us who worship the God of the Bible. He tells us to be prepared for the times of tribulation, He tells us in His word we will go through tribulation, and shares with us what to look for to know the end is near. But promises we will not face His wrath, He promises us a place in Heaven and tells us He will come in the clouds and we will meet Him in the sky first the dead in Christ will rise and them which are alive will rise and meet Him. He even tells us not to believe in the lies that many will tell to convince people He is among them that He has come when He hasn't, Jesus warns us of the anti-christ who will come and fool many....He even tells us that these times must come as His Word says.

 His word tells us when Jesus does come every eye will see Him and know it is Him..... What a day a Glorious day that will be when we see Our Jesus coming. But a terrible day to them who made their self an enemy of the Most High God by living a life of sin and un righteousness.  Jesus tells us A lot in His Word, One of my favorite chapters in the Bible in Matthew 24, I encourage you to read it and catch what Jesus is saying in that chapter, many miss it all together and continue in believing a lie of the timing of the Rapture based off of commentaries and movies.....take a quick look at Matthew 24:29-31......This is the Word of God, Jesus himself telling us when He will be coming among the clouds....look at that verse 29 again it tells us Immediately "after" the tribulation...... A mis understanding by many is they confuse the great tribulation for Gods wrath......when they are two different things.

 There is so much more in scripture as we read that talks of His wrath, the tribulation and the rapture...... and if we study it all out we see scripture puts the order tribulation rapture then the wrath of God......many teach a pre trib view or a mid trib view and say tribulation is the wrath of God But it don't line up scripture teaches clearly no scripture twisting no commentary convincing but just Bible interpreting itself.....a post trib pre wrath view..... and many think its not important but Jesus tells us its so important that He tells us lots of times in His words even in parables I love Matthew 13 as well where Jesus speaks in parables talking of His coming as well Matthew 25 of the 10 virgins.......All of the book Joel is very interesting....lol actually the whole Bible is awesome......We are told to study the word of God ourselves to be approved by Him....We are told to beware of false teachings that will lead us astray.... warned not to follow traditions of man.....Jesus even said the very elect will be fooled.....but He also says His sheep will know His voice. How will we know His word if we don't study it as the Holy Spirit gives us all understanding...... How will we know Him personally and know His voice if we have no prayer life...... We need to know His Word so we won't be fooled by false doctrine we need to pray and talk with Him as we listen to Him as well to know His voice.....we need to know Him so we ain't fooled by one who claims he is christ with lying signs and wonders....

We need to get in Tune with the Spirit and walk in the Spirit to know the mind of God is to know Him personally to know Him personally we need a relationship with Him to have a relationship with Him we need to communicate with Him in order to communicate with Him we need to have a prayer Life..........Now do you see why so many battle with prayerlessness............because that's where it starts, satan does what ever he can to keep us so busy and distracted....... Two things satan hates...... a Christian who has a Prayer life and knows the Word of God satan will try to convince you as you study to believe what people teach no need to really study word and rely on the Holy Ghost,  just study what they teach no need to check it out ....... and satan when it comes to prayer get people to read prayers instead of relying on the Holy Ghost and will try to bring anything your way to hinder your time of prayer by distracting, or by circumstance or to busy no time ........Anyone can saythey are Christian but it takes a Child of God to Know Him and to know His Word..... Because prayer makes things happen and the knowledge of God's word strips satans power to deceive

When God Says Go Have You Ever Thought Who Am I ?

When God Says Go Have You Ever Thought Who Am I ?

 Exodus 3:11 And Moses said unto God, Who am I , that I should go unto Pharaoh, and that I should bring forth the children of Israel out of Egypt?

    WHO AM I ? Have you ever been in a situation that you felt, or knew God was telling you to do something or to go somewhere, and you thought "why me" "Who am I" So and so should be doing it or is more capable, why send me Lord, that's impossible I can't do that........

     Well then you can relate to Moses, when he asked God "Who Am I" now as we read in Exodus the third chapter we see God telling Moses that he will be the one to lead Gods people out of Egypt. Moses being a man who looked at himself humbly as if he is no one special. But God saw a leader that He has chosen to go to Egypt and lead Gods people to freedom. And to top things off we see in chapter 4  of Exodus that Moses struggled with the idea, as he was looking at himself and his short comings but God supplied on each attempt to convince God he wasn't able, he had doubt that people would believe that God sent him God supplied a staff to do miracles he said I am slow at speech, God supplied a mouth piece and sent Aaron with him. Moses on his own could not do the job but Moses going as God leads him as he obeys God gets the job done. You see God does the work we just need to be willing to be used by Him. Moses felt he wasn't capable of doingthetask that  the Lord has put before him, in Moses eyes it seemed impossible. Isn't that so "US" often we seem to think the same, "WHO AM I" God never gives unto us anything too much for us to bear even to us if it seems impossible with God all things are possible.......God will always provide. God assured Moses that He would be with him, even showed him signs and wonders through examples with the Rod God gave him, giving Moses confidence that God was with him. All God wants us to be is willing and trusting and go in obedience then God will do the impossible God will do the un-doable. Think when they were being chased by Phoroahs army and all they seen was a huge body of water.......now what...... were they trapped......? In the mind of one of no faith it may have seemed that way, but with God He made a way. We see through exodus times where Moses used the staff to perform miracles, and one of the biggest ones that stick out is what I had mentioned earliertheparting of the red sea as Phoroah's army was chasing them they ran through the path on dry land as God parted the sea and got to the other side as they watched the sea come down and take out the army as God closed the sea upon them.

      Today God has tasks for us, at times we think it is just too much, there's just no way we can't do it, questions in our own mind will flop around thoughts will challenge us and bring doubt,..... I'm not where I should be with God..... why me and not someone else......... who am I...... I ain't nobody special.... I don't have what it takes to complete the task..... But remember God does not bring us to it unless He plans to bring us through it, scriptures tells us that we can do ALL things through Christ Jesus whom strengthens us. God has given us the Holy Ghost which enables us POWER , we become the vessels of God to work through. All He asks of us to do our part which is be willing, trust Him and obey and He will do the rest, no matter what .... know that ALL things are possible to them that believe.

    I would like to share with you a situation that really happened about 7 years ago, a kid was hit by a car there was blood everywhere, and the child was pronounced dead at the scene by the paramedics. Near by there was a man who is spirit filled living in obedience to the Lord, God told him to go lay his hands upon the boy God told him He was wants to heal the boy, so in obedience the man obeyed and went over, people were looking labeling this man as nuts and many others were saying things like who does he think he is........ whats he think he's gonna do........so the man walks to him and layed his hand on the boy and began to pray......people scoffed hearing the man say in the name of Jesus arise and be healed in Jesus name death I command you to go. As people's mocks became suddenly amazed as they watched the boy come back to life not only he came back to life his injury that were evident was no longer there the blood that was on the boy and the road was gone.God still does miracles today, and as that man obeyed it wasn't him who healed the boy it  was the Power of God but all the man had to do was be willing to be the vessel for God to work through.

   

WOW .....and that is a true story that how great God is.Think of the hurdles this man had knowing this boy was dead but trusted God even though people mocked him labeled him he still did what God told him to do. If only we all would listen to God when he tells us to go. The scripture says signs and wonders will follow them who truly believe. You see this man was just an ordinary man but he knew God and lived His Word and held onto Gods promises.  

Acts 1:8   But ye shall receive power , after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both inJerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth. 

 Luke 10:19  Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy : and nothing shall by any means hurt you. 

Mark 16:18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover .  

John 14:20 Jesus tells us Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he doalso; and g reater works than these shall he do ; because I go unto my Father.

  

  When we look at the life of Jesus, and see what miracles He performed and yet Jesus says greater works then these, God wants to do amazing things through His people for His Glory.....

   All things are possible to them that believe,( Matthew 19:26 ) if you are a child of God and have allowed the Holy Ghost to be activated in your life you are more then a conqueror.( Romans 8:37     God has equipped us with the Holy Ghost He has equipped His church with the spiritual gifts ( 1 Corinthians 12 ) to enable and to edify the church to move forward in POWER, we need to grasp that God is with us and when He is with us who can be against us( Romans 8:31 ) .....satan? he is under our feet( Romans 16:20 )he has no hold nor power over us,( Luke 10:19 )we need to realize the POWER God has instilled within us for His purpose and for His use. Catch what I am saying who are you.........Who am I ? we are a child of the King we are more then a conqueror........ we have royal blood flowing through our veins...... the devil is under our feet......... we can do all things through Christ Jesus whom strengthens us...... greater is HE who is in us then he thats in theworld......the gates of hell shall not prevail against the Church of God.

   Grasp the reality of who you are in Jesus. So the answer that we sometimes ask ourselves when God lays a task before us Who am I.......... Your a child of God, and all things are possible to them that believe. Stand and grab onto the reality of who you are. No longer walk as your defeated....... no longer act as if satan has power over you......... Get into the word study it apply it live it know it and be obedient. The word tells us if we draw closer to God then God draws closer to us. God Bless become all you can be for God.

 Acts 20:28 Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.

Truth Hurts........The Gospel is Offensive To Many Even Some Christians.....

what a world we live in where the world gets offended when one speaks the Gospel and shares Jesus......but yet who cares about offending the Christians...society has got so concerned and worried about offending people when it comes to religion but yet what do they do ....they allow other religions but yet not Christianity....... Its ok to preach and share a Buddhist belief, its ok to preach and teach Islam beleafs its ok to teach our kids nihilism, but we can`t share Christianity it will offend the other religions...... it seems to be ok to teach eastern religions and new age garbage , its ok to say God isnt real..........as long as its anything  but the Truth because when one shares the Truth we offend....as long as we don't preach or teach Jesus of the bible, but if we do we're being offensive.......wow......and even some try and quote scripture not to offend our brother......well I`m sorry if you preach another Gospel and praise a man made God with some false religion your not my brother or sister in Christ now are ya......so NO I WILL STILL PREACH the Gospel.... society has turned so far away from God and then the world sits there wondering why there is sooooo much chaos in the world....

  Well guess what the Gospel is offensive...... because people want to live in a world of pleasure a world that has no rights or wrongs......they want to do what they want to do regardless what the Bible says.........hence why many churches just preach the `feel good sermons`watered down Gospel.....some go on saying because God is a loving and a merciful God, He won't allow anyone to go to hell..... then they even quote scriptures out of context and pick a select few to grab onto to justify their actions......but yet ignore the rest of the Bible..... Well the thing is Its not what we say is right and wrong its what God says is right and wrong!!!!

   If I offend you because I preach Jesus, and share the Gospel well its like this .....people who say there is no God offends us as Christians people who says the Bible is just a book offends us as Christians, people who use the name of Jesus as a curse word offends us as Christians....people who dis obey the Bible offends Jesus..... people who worship another God other then God.....offends God ......One thing  I've come to know is people will be people and like it or not that's just the way some is. They rather please them selves and others but not God, and they will state what they think about us as Christians and persecute us and even kill Christians  and tell others all about their belief........... And just like them I won't shut up either I will Keep preaching and serving Jesus.......Jesus is the way not any other way if your told there are other ways you have been lied to...I live I preach and I love Jesus, the message He shared with the world I will share as well and do as Jesus says preach the Gospel, some of you will say well thats the truth for you but it doesn't mean its the truth to someone else........THERE IS ONLY ONE WAY AND ITS FOUND IN THE BIBLE! JESUS IS THE WAY, you cant get to heaven any other way...... and The Bible is Gods Word, the very book we are all judged by......and we need to obey it living in Gods way............ Know the truth and allow the Truth to set you free!

   We are in the day that there is many people who scoff and mock them who preach the Gospel, many nay sayers saying things such as the Bible is just a book......well like it or not the Bible is the LIVING Word, its the very book all will be judged by so you can mock you can scoff you can oppose the Bible and choose to dis obey Gods way but in the end you will wish you listened you will see that the few that tryed to tell you weren't nuts, you will see face to face the very God you said don't exist but then ...then it will be too late....Today is the day of Salvation....Repent from your sins turn to God and obey His Word while we are still in the time of Our Gods Grace.....there will be a time His Grace and mercy will turn to wrath.....
