TODAY WE CELEBRATE THE RESURRECTION OF JESUS CHRIST AND THAT THE TOMB WAS FOUND EMPTY EASTER SUNDAY MORNING!

 WE ARE GOD'S HANDS AND FEET IN THE WORLD, GOD WANTS US TO CARE ABOUT PEOPLE BECAUSE GOD CARES ABOUT PEOPLE. GOD WANTS ALL HIS PEOPLE TO KNOW GOD'S JOY AND GOD'S PEACE AND GOD'S LOVE. GOD WANTS TO RESTORE GOODNESS FOR ALL CREATION. DON'T LET ANYTHING COME BEFORE GOD.

TODAY WE ARE SO DIVIDED BECAUSE MY ENEMY THE DEVIL HAS  BLINDED US FROM THE TRUTH THAT THE DEVIL IS THE SOURCE OF ALL EVIL. SO WHEN EVIL HAPPENS IN THE WORLD REMEMBER NOT TO BLAME EACH OTHER FOR WHAT DEVIL IS DOING.

 JESUS SAID: "NOW" IS THE TIME FOR JUDGEMENT ON THIS WORLD; "NOW" THE PRINCE OF THIS WORLD WILL BE DRIVEN OUT."  (John 12:31) THE DEVIL IS DEFEATED, THE BATTLE HAS BEEN WON, GOD IS VICTORIOUS!

THE WORD OF GOD HAS POWER OVER THE DEVIL. WHEN JESUS WAS TEMPTED BY THE DEVIL; JESUS ANSWERED "IT IS WRITTEN" THEN QUOTED THE WORD OF GOD. 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!

"DO NOT REPAY ANYONE EVIL FOR EVIL. BE CAREFUL TO DO WHAT IS RIGHT IN THE EYES OF EVERYBODY. IF IT IS POSSIBLE, AS FAR AS IT DEPENDS ON YOU, LIVE AT PEACE WITH EVERYONE. DO NOT TAKE REVENGE, MY FRIENDS, BUT LEAVE ROOM FOR GOD'S WRATH, FOR IT IS WRITTEN: "IT IS MINE TO AVENGE; I WILL REPAY," SAYS THE LORD. ON THE CONTRARY: "IF YOUR ENEMY IS HUNGRY, FEED HIM; IF HE IS THIRSTY, GIVE HIM SOMETHING TO DRINK. IN DOING THIS, YOU WILL HEAP BURNING COALS ON HIS HEAD. "DO NOT BE OVERCOME BY EVIL, BUT OVERCOME EVIL WITH GOOD! (Romans 12:17-21)

THE DEVIL IS MY ENEMY, BECAUSE I AM A CHILD OF GOD, DESERVING OF LOVE AND RESPECT. AND GOD WILL USE ME TO CHANGE THE WORLD. ALL I KNOW IS JESUS CHRIST CRUCIFIED, JESUS DIED ON THE CROSS FOR MY SINS AND THROUGH JESUS CHRIST I HAVE A RECONCILED RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD "NOW" THIS PRESENT MOMENT.

LENT IS OUR FORTY DAY MARCH TO THE CROSS OF JESUS CHRIST. LENT ENDED WITH MAUNDY THURSDAY, WHERE WE GATHER WITH CHRISTIANS AROUND THE WORLD TO CELEBRATE THE THREE DAYS OF JESUS' DEATH AND RESURRECTION. TONIGHT WE REMEMBER CHRIST'S LAST MEAL WITH HIS DISCIPLES. THEN THERE IS GOOD FRIDAY WHERE LIFE AND DEATH STAND SIDE BY SIDE, WE STAND WITH THE DISCIPLES AT THE FOOT OF THE CROSS, WE PRAY FOR THE WHOLE WORLD AS CHRIST'S DEATH OFFERS LIFE TO ALL. TODAY WE CELEBRATE THE RESURRECTION OF JESUS CHRIST AND THAT THE TOMB WAS FOUND EMPTY EASTER SUNDAY MORNING.

THIS FACT EITHER HAS A MAJOR IMPACT ON  OUR LIVES OR NO IMPACT AT ALL, IT IS ALL OR NOTHING. THIS FACT EITHER AFFECTS HOW YOU LIVE YOUR LIFE OR IT HAS NO EFFECT AT ALL. IF NO EFFECT AT ALL YOUR LIFE HAS NOT BEEN TRANSFORMED. THOSE WHO WERE AT THE TOMB AND HEARD THE MESSAGE THAT JESUS WAS ALIVE WERE CHANGED AND RAN FROM THE TOMB TELLING EVERYONE JESUS HAS RISEN. IF JESUS IS ALIVE THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING. IF CHRIST IS RISEN, NOTHING ELSE MATTERS. AND IF CHRIST IS NOT - NOTHING ELSE MATTERS. CHRIST HAS INDEED BEEN RAISED FROM THE DEAD. CHRIST CONQUERED EVIL AND DEATH SO THAT WE COULD LIVE BOLD AND FREE. THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING.

OUR COMMON SPIRITUAL ENEMY IS THE IGNORANCE OF OUR SPIRITUAL UPBRINGING. BECAUSE WE ARE BLINDED BY OUR SPIRITUAL ENEMY THE DEVIL TO KEEP US FROM UNDERSTANDING GOD'S SPIRITUAL PLAN FOR:

THERE IS ONLY ONE GOD, AND THE ESSENCE OF THE ONE GOD IS, GOD IS ALL POWERFUL, GOD IS ALL KNOWING, GOD IS EVERYWHERE AT ONCE. GOD REVEALS HIMSELF TO US AS THE ALL POWERFUL FATHER GOD, THE ALL KNOWING JESUS GOD, AND THE PRESENT EVERYWHERE AT ONCE HOLY SPIRIT GOD. I GO TO GOD EVERYDAY FOR SPIRITUAL PROCESSING THROUGH THE ESSENCE OF PRAYER.

I TRULY UNDERSTAND THAT GOD SHOWS NO PARTIALITY, BUT IN EVERY NATION ANYONE WHO FEARS GOD AND DOES WHAT IS RIGHT IS ACCEPTABLE TO GOD. GOD COMMANDED US TO PREACH TO THE PEOPLE AND TO TESTIFY THAT JESUS IS THE ONE ORDAINED BY GOD AS JUDGE OF THE LIVING AND THE DEAD. ALL THE PROPHETS TESTIFY ABOUT CHRIST THAT EVERYONE WHO BELIEVES IN CHRIST RECEIVES FORGIVENESS OF SINS THROUGH CHRIST'S NAME. (Acts 10:34,35,42,43)

THE GOD WHO MADE THE WORLD AND EVERYTHING IN IT IS THE LORD OF HEAVEN AND EARTH AND DOES NOT LIVE IN TEMPLES BUILT BY HANDS. AND GOD IS NOT SERVED BY HUMAN HANDS, AS IF GOD NEEDED ANYTHING, BECAUSE GOD HIMSELF GIVES ALL MEN LIFE AND BREATH AND EVERYTHING ELSE. FROM ONE MAN GOD MADE EVERY NATION OF MEN, THAT THEY SHOULD INHABIT THE WHOLE EARTH; AND GOD DETERMINED THE TIMES SET FOR THEM AND THE EXACT PLACES WHERE THEY SHOULD LIVE. GOD DID THIS SO THAT MEN WOULD SEEK GOD AND PERHAPS REACH OUT FOR GOD AND FIND GOD, THOUGH GOD IS NOT FAR FROM EACH ONE OF US.

FOR IN GOD WE LIVE AND MOVE AND HAVE OUR BEING. AS SOME OF YOUR OWN POETS HAVE SAID, WE ARE GOD'S OFFSPRING. THEREFORE SINCE WE ARE GOD'S OFFSPRING, WE SHOULD NOT THINK THAT THE DIVINE BEING IS LIKE GOLD OR SILVER OR STONE - AN IMAGE MADE BY MAN'S DESIGN AND SKILL. IN THE PAST GOD OVERLOOKED SUCH IGNORANCE, BUT NOW GOD COMMANDS ALL PEOPLE EVERYWHERE TO REPENT. 

FOR GOD HAS SET A DAY WHEN GOD WILL JUDGE THE WORLD WITH JUSTICE BY THE MAN GOD HAS APPOINTED. GOD HAS GIVEN PROOF OF THIS TO ALL MEN BY RAISING CHRIST FROM THE DEAD. (Acts 17:24-31)

SO I SAY GOD YOU ARE THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERS AND GOD THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERS TO US IS OUR SPIRITUAL RELATIONSHIP WITH YOU! AMEN. GOD WE ASK AND WE PRAY CREATE IN US A PURE HEART O GOD AND RENEW A STEADFAST SPIRIT WITHIN US. GOD WE ASK AND WE PRAY DO NOT CAST US FROM YOUR PRESCENCE OR TAKE YOUR HOLY SPIRIT FROM US. GOD WE ASK AND WE PRAY RESTORE TO US THE JOY OF YOUR SPIRITUAL SALVATION AND GRANT US A WILLING SPIRIT TO SUSTAIN US. THEN GOD WE WILL TEACH TRANSGRESSOR YOUR WAYS AND SINNERS WILL TURN BACK TO YOU. (Psalms 51:10-13)

GOD WE ARE BELIEVING CONTINUALLY IN JESUS WORDS, AND GOD WE BIND THE POWER OF THE DEVIL AND GOD WE RELEASE YOUR POWER IN THE EARTH. BECAUSE GOD YOU ARE WORKING IN US AND THROUGH US EVERYDAY!

I DEMONSTRATE MY LOVE FOR GOD BY PRAYING GOD'S LOVING WORDS TO HIM. THIS IS THE TRUTH I STAND UNDER. GOD'S LOVE FOR ME IS GOD'S WORDS TO ME! AND I RENEW THAT LOVE DAILY!

SO AS I AM MARCHING TOWARDS THE CROSS OF CHRIST, I FOCUS  ON THE PROMISE MADE TO CHRIST. SO I AM NO LONGER A SLAVE  TO SIN, BUT A SON OF GOD; AND SINCE I AM A SON, GOD HAS MADE ME AN HEIR. SO I NOT ONLY LIVE BY THE SPIRIT I STAY IN STEP WITH THE SPIRIT. THAT WHATEVER PATH IS RIGHT, WHATEVER PATH IS FAIR, WHATEVER PATH IS JUST, MAY THESE BE THE PATHS I CHOOSE!

I SWEAR THIS IS THE TRUTH, THE WHOLE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH, SO HELP ME GOD!

"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 DECEIVED THEM, BECAUSE THE DEVIL IS THE FATHER OF ALL LIES. GOD'S WORD OF TRUTH IS STRONGER THAN THE DEVIL'S LIES.
