After years and years of rebellion and self-inflicted heartache, I finally learned the huge lesson, that in order to really follow God, we must OBEY him. John 14 says three different times in slightly different ways that if you love the Lord, you will OBEY him. I had never heard it put that bluntly and I bet most people today living in America or the west who call themselves Christians can say the same thing. They never heard that. Jesus spoke in revelations 1,2 and 3 to John in the first part of his vision in letters to seven churches. I highly suggest everyone go read them. This is the true Jesus. This is what he spoke, what he taught. He was not a sissy. He does not overlook sin. He hates it. And anyone who walks in sin while pretending that they are Christians and followers of Christ are deceiving themselves, like I did, and are heading to hell. If I had not repented when I did, I would have gone to hell. I was given as choice after that. I ...
If all men love you and speak well of you, you’re likely a tare. “Y ou will be hated by all for my name's sake. But the one who endures to the end will be saved. When they persecute you in one town, flee to the next, for truly, I say to you, you will not have gone through all the towns of Israel before the Son of Man comes. “A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his master. It is enough for the disciple to be like his teacher, and the servant like his master. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebul, how much more will they malign those of his household.” Jesus himself said this. Why do we ignore it? There are only two kingdoms in the spirit realm. Gods kingdom and mans kingdom. You are either in Gods kingdom or you’re in Satan’s kingdom. There’s no neutral ground. If you aren’t Gods’, you are satans. The Bible says We know that we are of God, and the whole world lies u...
On February 10, 2015, Buddy, my second husband, passed away from pancreatic cancer. He was holding my hand. Watching him die slowly from cancer and dealing with the aftermath of his death was the most difficult thing I’ve ever been through. And I’ve been through a lot. Divorce. A child born with a major disability. And many other things. But the Lord got me through that dark time. I can't tell you how much closer I grew to the Lord during that time. It was then when I had nothing that to learned to fully trust the Lord and lean on Him. It was then I learned about His compassion and love. I had been a Christian before but this was when I learned to fully rely on God. I had no choice. I had to. At that time The Lord worked out an ugly situation with unbelieving in-laws who were literally trying to destroy me and had threatened to have me and my young kids out on the street. God arranged everything so that I was taken care of...
