TODAY WE ARE SO DIVIDED BECAUSE MY ENEMY THE DEVIL HAS US BLAMING EACH OTHER FOR WHAT HE IS DOING. JESUS SAID: "NOW" IS THE TIME FOR JUDGEMENT ON THIS WORD; "NOW" THE PRINCE OF THIS WORLD WILL BE DRIVEN OUT." (John 12:31)
THE WORD OF GOD HAS POWER OVER THE DEVIL. WHEN JESUS WAS TEMPTED BY THE DEVIL; JESUS ANSWERED "IT IS WRITTEN". THE WRITTEN WORD HAS THE POWER TO DEFEAT THE DEVIL AND ALL HIS EVIL FORCES. I INVOKE THE WORD OF GOD IN THE WORLD TODAY BY SPEAKING THE WORD OUT OF MY MOUTH INTO MY HEART, BACK IN MY MOUTH INTO MY HEART. THIS IS A DIVINE CYCLE THAT POWERS GOD'S WORD.
CAN I GET AN AMEN FROM ALL WHO CALL ON GOD. AMEN!
THE DEVIL TRIED TO DESTROY GOD'S PLAN FOR GOD'S CREATED MAN. GOD CREATED MAN IN GOD'S IMAGE AND GOD GAVE MAN DOMINON OVER THE EARTH. BECAUSE THE DEVIL KNOWS THE WORD OF GOD, THE DEVIL NEW WHAT GOD HAD IN STORE FOR MANKIND. THE DEVIL NEW THAT "ADAM WHO WAS A PATTERN OF THE ONE TO COME" JESUS CHRIST, WHO IS THE IMAGE OF GOD WOULD BECOME A SON OF GOD. THE DEVIL NEW MAN WAS GOING TO BE LIKE GOD AND HAVE A ETERNAL RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD. THIS MADE THE DEVIL JEALOUS OF MAN AND SO THE DEVIL DECIDIED TO POISON GOD'S PLAN WITH THE ONLY THING THAT COULD SEPERATE MANKIND FROM GOD, SIN.
BECAUSE "MY" GOD IS THE ALL POWERFUL AND ALL KNOWING AND EVERYWHERE AT ONCE GOD, "MY" GOD KNEW WHAT THE DEVIL WAS UP TO AND GOD ALLOWED IT TO HAPPEN BECAUSE GOD KNEW THIS COULD NOT CHANGE HIS PLAN FOR MANKIND. GOD'S PLAN FOR US TO BE MADE IN HIS IMAGE AND THAT IMAGE IS JESUS CHRIST, DIDN'T CHANGE. BUT BECAUSE SIN SEPRATES US FROM GOD, MAN HAD TO BE RECONCILED TO GOD BEFORE GOD'S PLAN COULD BE COMPLETED. MAN HAD TO SUFFER FOR HIS DISOBEDIENCE TO GOD, "WE KNOW THAT THE LAW IS SPIRITUAL; BUT I AM UNSPIRITUAL, SOLD AS A SLAVE TO SIN." (Romans 7:14)
GOD HIMSELF RECONCILIED US TO A RIGHT RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM THROUGH JESUS CHRIST CRUCIFIED. "CHRIST WAS DELIVERED OVER TO DEATH FOR OUR SINS AND WAS RAISED TO LIFE FOR OUR JUSTIFICATION. THEREFORE, SINCE WE HAVE BEEN JUSTIFIED THROUGH FAITH, WE HAVE PEACE WITH GOD THROUGH OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, THROUGH WHOM WE HAVE GAINED ACCESS BY FAITH INTO THIS GRACE IN WHICH WE NOW STAND. AND WE REJOICE IN THE HOPE OF GLORY OF GOD-JESUS CHRIST." (Romans 4:25-5:2)
I SWEAR THIS IS THE TRUTH, THE WHOLE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH, SO HELP ME GOD!
JESUS SAID: "I HAVE GIVEN THEM YOUR WORD AND THE WORLD HAS HATED THEM, FOR THEY ARE NOT OF THE WORLD ANY MORE THAN I AM OF THE WORLD. MY PRAYER IS NOT THAT YOU TAKE THEM OUT OF THE WORLD BUT THAT YOU PROTECT THEM FROM THE EVIL ONE, THE DEVIL. THEY ARE NOT OF THE WORLD, EVEN AS I AM NOT OF IT. SANCTIFY THEM BY THE TRUTH; YOUR WORD IS TRUTH. (John 17:14-17)
"YET A TIME IS COMING AND HAS "NOW" COME WHEN THE TRUE WORSHIPERS WILL WORSHIP THE FATHER IN SPIRIT AND TRUTH, FOR THEY ARE THE KIND OF WORSHIPERS THE FATHER SEEKS. GOD IS SPIRIT AND GOD'S WORSHIPERS MUST WORSHIP IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH." (John 4:23-24)
TODAY THE WORLD HAS FALLEN FOR A LIE, AND IT IS MY ENEMY THE DEVIL WHO HAS TRIPPED THEM, BECAUSE THE DEVIL IS THE FATHER OF ALL LIES. GOD'S WORD OF TRUTH IS STRONGER THAN THE DEVIL'S LIES.
"THEREFORE EACH OF YOU MUST PUT OFF FALSEHOOD AND SPEAK TRUTHFULLY TO HIS NEIGHBOR, FOR WE ARE ALL MEMBERS OF ONE BODY. "IN YOUR ANGER DO NOT SIN"; DO NOT LET THE SUN GO DOWN WHILE YOU ARE STILL ANGRY, AND DO NOT GIVE THE DEVIL A FOOTHOLD." (Ephesians 4:25-27)
THIS IS THE GOSPEL THAT YOU HEARD AND THAT HAS BEEN PROCLAIMED TO EVERY CREATURE UNDER HEAVEN, AND OF WHICH I, DAN HAVE BECOME A SERVANT. "NOW" I REJOICE IN WHAT WAS SIFFERED FOR YOU, AND I FILL UP IN MY FLESH WHAT IS STILL LACKING IN REGAURD TO CHRIST'S AFFLIICTIONS, FOR THE SAKE OF CHRIST'S BODY, WHICH IS THE CHURCH. I HAVE BECOME ITS SERVANT BY THE COMMISSION GOD GAVE ME TO PRESENT TO YOU THE WORD OF GOD IN ITS FULLNESS - THE MYSTERY THAT HAS BEEN KEPT HIDDEN FOR AGES AND GENERATIONS, BUT IS "NOW" DISCLOSED TO THE SAINTS. TO THEM GOD HAS CHOSEN TO MAKE KNOWN AMONG THE GENTILES THE GLORIOUS RICHES OF THIS MYSTERY, WHICH IS CHRIST IN YOU, THE HOPE OF GLORY. (Colossians 1:23b-27)
I HAVE FOLLOWED JESUS TO GOD THE FATHER WHO NOW TEACHES ME HOW TO LIVE LIKE JESUS, HOW TO BE A SON LIKE JESUS, HOW TO LOVE LIKE JESUS. WITH GOD AS MY TEACHER I HAVE NO DOUBT I WILL GET IT RIGHT.
"CHRIST IS THE PATTERN FOR MY LIFE, AND GOD IS TRANSFORMING ME TO THE PATTERN. SO I SAY THANKS BE TO GOD." AMEN!
