The danger of a “Misdiagnoses”

2 Timothy 3:12 (KJV)

[12] Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.

I once read of a woman that was “Misdiagnosed” as having a considerably large tumor. During the operation they found out instead of a tumor she was now a new mother!

-While this situation is laughable, our Scripture text, if

Misdiagnosed could be the difference between Depression and or Determination!

*Not all Persecution and Trouble is because you have failed or sinned!

*Sometimes it’s just the attack of the devil because you’re living a Godly life!

Can A Blind Guide, Guide A Blind Man?

Luke 6:39 (KJV)

[39] And he spake a parable unto them, Can the blind lead the blind? shall they not both fall into the ditch?

The Parable Means to Expose the Ridiculous and Inane Confidences We Trust In…

Trusting People Who Only Let You Down Again and Again is

A Lesson in Futility!

When You Would Rather Listen  Because They Agree With You-

Is Blindness…

Both of You Are Blind-

You Because of Your Ego…

Them Because They Agreed…

Again I Ask-

Can A Blind Guide,

Guide A Blind Man?

Drastic Measures

Numbers 26:65 (KJV)

[65] For the LORD had said of them, They shall surely die in the wilderness. And there was not left a man of them, save Caleb the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua the son of Nun.

Beware when God resorts to drastic measures…

Unbelief is not a mild manner minor offense!

It is not as some would have you believe that it is just some poor soul who doesn’t understand!

Quite the contrary-

It is one of the greatest evils!

Because-

When God speaks and promises

Then you don’t believe Him-

It is the ultimate insult and slap in His face!

Drastic As It May Have Seemed

For God to Kill Off an Entire Generation  of Adults from Around 500,000 People!

All Because- They Did Not Believe When God Spoke!

(Drastic Measures)

Were Taken, Before He Would Allow Them to Enter-

The Promise Land!

Don’t Let “Drastic Measures”

Keep You from The Promise Land!

Strange Fire

Numbers 26:61 (KJV)

[61] And Nadab and Abihu died, when they offered strange fire before the LORD.

Strange Fire-

Not What Was Requested…

Fire Is Fire Right?

WRONG-

⁃ Looks The Same

⁃ Feels The Same

But Where It Came From Makes A Difference!

Worship…

⁃ It Looks the Same

⁃ It Sounds the Same

⁃ It (Even) Feels the Same

The Incense (Worship) Is Not The Problem!

IT’S THE FIRE-

The Propellant-the Fire That Sends the Incense (Worship) Up, Toward God!

Strange Fire is Fire That Was Not Taken Off The Altar of Sacrifice!

The Place of a Death and Acceptance of God…

If There Is No Fire on Your Altar of Sacrifice-

Please Do Not Substitute “Strange Fire”

When Offering Up Worship (Incense)….

Breakfast is Served

Deuteronomy 11:26 (KJV)

[26] ¶ Behold, I set before you this day

*a blessing and a curse;

They say, breakfast is the most important meal of the day!

It is the first thing served to your body for the day!

The Lord also serves up the first thing of the day.

⁃ Manna was served New every morning

⁃ Mercies are new every morning

And yet one thing is for certain today!

God has set before us a choice:

“A Blessing and A Curse”

The devil would lie to you and would have you to think you have no choice!

That Life is random and uncertain.

But God has set before us a choice!

God has Purpose and Direction!

But the choice is ours!

A Blessing and A Curse…

What will you choose today?

Why God Hides Truth

Luke 8:10 (KJV)

[10] And he said, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to others in parables; that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand.

*Why Would God (Hide) A Message of Truth?

God’s (Selective Program)-

• Is Not Based on DNA

• Is Not Based on Pedigree

• Is Not Based on Intelligence

• Is Not Based on Prophecy

But Rather…

*On The Individual’s Acceptance and Openness of Receiving-TRUTH

In Other-words-

• If You Don’t See

• If You Don’t Understand

The Fault Is Yours…

Because-You wouldn’t  do what’s necessary in preparing your Heart to Receive the Seed (the Word)!

So…If Its Hid and You Don’t See or If You Hear and Don’t Understand-

It’s Your Fault-

TRUTH is not an Entitlement

But rather a Gift!

1 Peter 4:11

Who will love (Him) most?

Luke 7:41-43 (KJV)

[41] There was a certain creditor which had two debtors: the one owed five hundred pence, and the other fifty.

[42] And when they had nothing to pay, he frankly forgave them both. Tell me therefore, *which of them will love him most?

It Seems Apparent That There Are Different Levels of Adoration and Love…

• Some Are Content With Little…

• Some Never Feel Content…

While (the Content) Feel Good With What They Offer the Lord

(Others) Feel Like They Could Never Repay Him…

So The Outcome is Really Based on The Forgiveness-

One Feels Forgiven of (50 pence)

While the Other Feels Forgiven of (500 pence)

God Has Forgiven Us All-

Are You a 50 Pence-er or A 500?

It’s Evident In Your Service to (Him)…
