Today’s cup of wisdom: GO AND MAKE DISCIPLES! Good morning my blessed family in Christ. Praise the Lord and may Almighty God bless you abundantly! Do not miss out on what our heavenly Father has for you today. Time spent with the Father in his word is time well spent! Our faith grows, our knowledge grows, the Holy Spirit speaks to us and we are blessed beyond every curse. Our power, our sword, the word of God! God’s word says: James 1:22King James Version (KJV) 22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. -To see the true power and truth of the word of God, we need only to do as it says. It is truly that simple. The enemy tries to put complicated thoughts in your mind, to persuade you to think that to do the will of God is impossible. And indeed in our own human effort we cannot accomplish anything. BUT GOD! Yes God is able, through the power of the Holy Spirit, graciously sent to help us by our Lord and Savior. Praise Jesus! For through Him we CAN DO ALL THINGS! You see it is not human effort at all that renews us, it is simply the word of God within us, our faith and the power of the Holy Spirit. The sooner we realize this the better. Philippians 4:13King James Version (KJV) 13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. John 14:26King James Version (KJV) 26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. Matthew 19:26King James Version (KJV) 26 But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible. Hebrews 4:12King James Version (KJV) 12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. -AAAAMEN! Within each of us dwells the magnificent power of God! We are anointed to do His will from within, and all we need to do is believe, seek, and do! God said that all authority over the enemy has been given to each of us. That we have HIS POWER! John 15:16King James Version (KJV) 16 Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you. Luke 10:19King James Version (KJV) 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. John 14:12King James Version (KJV) 12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. Matthew 28:18-20King James Version (KJV) 18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy spirit.: 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen. -AAAAMEN! So now a selah pause………….. Are we doing as the Lord has commanded? Do we receive and BELIEVE His word as truth? Will we DO AS IT SAYS? HAVE WE MADE DISCIPLES? Are we filling up with power through his word to do as it says? Beloved brethren, the harvest IS RIPE! We are living in a dying world. The events and news are all evidence of the end times drawing near. No man knows the day or hour, but it cannot be denied that time is short. Birth pangs have begun, and souls are dying to be saved! Making disciples is not difficult. But if we do not step out of our little comfort box of our own salvation and have a true desire to save the lost, if we do not speak… who will hear? Again the enemy puts these thoughts in our mind that we are not able, not ready, that we cannot do this very simple task. God has given you all authority and has enabled you with every tool you need, but if you do not step out in faith and try, you will never understand or see the truth in this. Look around, pay attention to those that God puts in your path. Nothing happens without a purpose, and all situations arise for a reason. If you come upon someone angry, someone sad, someone who is obviously troubled, someone who is in pain, physically or emotionally, someone caught up in sin, someone lonely,…etc.etc… they are there for a reason. There they are right in front of your eyes, because God has placed you and them together for a moment that could be a life or death moment. What if you are the only believer that ever crosses their path? How will you respond on judgment day, if you just pass each one by and say nothing, do nothing? How will you feel when you are in this field we call the world and the one next to you remains behind? This verse always touched my heart from the very first moment that I read it: Matthew 24:40-41King James Version (KJV) 40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. 41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left. -Close your eyes for just a moment and imagine this. How will you feel? What will God say? God’s word is very specific about favoritism.. he shows none! God’s word says that without Love, we are not of God. 1 Corinthians 13:2King James Version (KJV) 2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing. John 15:9-12King James Version (KJV) 9 As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love. 10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Fathers commandments, and abide in his love. 11 These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full. 12 This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you. Luke 10:25-37King James Version (KJV) 25 And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted him, saying, Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life? 26 He said unto him, What is written in the law? how readest thou? 27 And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself. 28 And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live. 29 But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbour? 30 And Jesus answering said, A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, which stripped him of his raiment, and wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead. 31 And by chance there came down a certain priest that way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side. 32 And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked on him, and passed by on the other side. 33 But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he had compassion on him, 34 And went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him. 35 And on the morrow when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave them to the host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more, when I come again, I will repay thee. 36 Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was neighbour unto him that fell among the thieves? 37 And he said, He that shewed mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto him, Go, and do thou likewise. -AAAAMEN! Can it be that we are just passing others by each day by going to the other side of the road? We cannot ignore what is right in front of us. We must take action, for without action our faith is dead! James 2:14-26King James Version (KJV) 14 What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him? 15 If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food, 16 And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit? 17 Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. 18 Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works. 19 Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble. 20 But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead? 21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar? 22 Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect? 23 And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God. 24 Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only. 25 Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot justified by works, when she had received the messengers, and had sent them out another way? 26 or as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also. -AAAAMEN! We all have a job to do, and have been fully equipped for service. Chosen for a purpose! If you do not know what to say, just DO! It is as simple as asking someone, “How are you”, or “is everything alright?” Yes that simple, and the Lord will open the door that he has placed right before your eyes. Beloved brethren IT IS TIME to stop passing by on the other side of the road. Open our eyes and see the opportunity, step out in faith, speak and DO IN JESUS NAME and FOR HIS GLORY! THE GLORY OF GOD and THE GLORY OF THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN TO COME! Can you hear the lost souls crying out all around you? The heavens rejoice every time a soul comes to the Savior.. and likewise we should do the same. Luke 15:1-10 King James Version (KJV) 15 Then drew near unto him all the publicans and sinners for to hear him. 2 And the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, This man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them. 3 And he spake this parable unto them, saying, 4 What man of you, having an hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he find it? 5 And when he hath found it, he layeth it on his shoulders, rejoicing. 6 And when he cometh home, he calleth together his friends and neighbours, saying unto them, Rejoice with me; for I have found my sheep which was lost. 7 I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance. 8 Either what woman having ten pieces of silver, if she lose one piece, doth not light a candle, and sweep the house, and seek diligently till she find it? 9 And when she hath found it, she calleth her friends and her neighbours together, saying, Rejoice with me; for I have found the piece which I had lost. 10 Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth. 1 Peter 4:1-8English Standard Version (ESV) Stewards of Gods Grace 4 Since therefore Christ suffered in the flesh,[a] arm yourselves with the same way of thinking, for whoever has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin, 2 so as to live for the rest of the time in the flesh no longer for human passions but for the will of God. 3 For the time that is past suffices for doing what the Gentiles want to do, living in sensuality, passions, drunkenness, orgies, drinking parties, and lawless idolatry. 4 With respect to this they are surprised when you do not join them in the same flood of debauchery, and they malign you; 5 but they will give account to him who is ready to judge the living and the dead. 6 For this is why the gospel was preached even to those who are dead, that though judged in the flesh the way people are, they might live in the spirit the way God does. 7 The end of all things is at hand; therefore be self-controlled and sober-minded for the sake of your prayers. 8 Above all, keep loving one another earnestly, since love covers a multitude of sins. -AAAAMEN! Time to get out of the world and into the position we have been appointed to! No One knows the day or hour but it is drawing nearer every day. We must be found ready! Matthew 24 King James Version (KJV) 24 And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple. 2 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down. 3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world? 4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. 5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. 6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows. 9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my names sake. 10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. 11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. 12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. 13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. 14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come. 15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:) 16 Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains: 17 Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house: 18 Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes. 19 And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days! 20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day: 21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. 22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elects sake those days shall be shortened. 23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not. 24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. 25 Behold, I have told you before. 26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not. 27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 28 For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together. 29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: 30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. 31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. 32 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh: 33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors. 34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled. 35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. 36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. 37 But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, 39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. 41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left. 42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. 43 But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up. 44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh. 45 Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season? 46 Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing. 47 Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods. 48 But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming; 49 And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken; 50 The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of, 51 And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. -RE READ VERSE 42-46 with me: 42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. 43 But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up. 44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh. 45 Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season? 46 Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing. -WATCH WATCHERS, WATCH! Matthew 7:21-23King James Version (KJV) 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. AAAAMEN! The word of the Lord! -Making disciples IS NOT DIFFICULT! That is a lie! IT IS OUR DUTY! GO AND MAKE DISCIPLES IN JESUS NAME~! AAAAAMEN! Holy Father in heaven we thank you and praise you for your word. Father let the Holy Spirit flood this place, let it rain down upon your children faith and strength and courage to go! Let it bring to life within us the power to move and do and say what we are called to do and say! Let it bring us back to the side of the road where souls are dying, and make our hand reach out and touch them and lift them up in Jesus name! Let our mouths boldly proclaim all of the good that our Heavenly Father has done in our lives, and to shout the praises of God our Lord Jesus Christ and The Holy Spirit! Let our actions show our praise and glorify our Almighty God, our love for him and his love for us and in us! Let our light shine so bright among men, that all darkness is vanquished and as our Lord returns the heavens will rejoice as God’s people are FOUND READY! In Jesus name and by the power of his blood, the power of the Holy Spirit of God we faithfully pray! AAAAMEN and THANK YOU JESUS! God bless♥
