It's Time to Break Camp and Advance into the Promise Land
When we hear God, we must do what He says—He says go in and possess the land—find something to possess and do it!! When we catch God’s gentle whisper to place our foot down and step into a land and claim it-- we will get it in the spirit realm, which will later manifest in the natural. For the ones who obey and please God, every place that we set our foot, God will give it to us and we will possess it. God is not one who can ever lie and faith is being sure of what we hope for but certain of what we do not see—If He said it, it is finished! We have to fix our eyes on the unseen, not on we see.
(Today the prophecy of yesterday’s distinction of God’s people came to pass.1) “I will make a distinction between my people and your people and this miraculous sign will occur tomorrow—and the Lord did this.” 2) “On that day, living water will flow in the summer an in the winter.” God said in a gentle whisper to Pastor,“Get them ready to cross the Jordan!” We physically stepped in faith to possess the land that God promised to give to us). We don’t know or can’t even fathom what God did for us as we obeyed Him! God has had a plan for us and today, He put something into operation as we stepped into the land in faith. God said “Everyone who heard Me tonight, in 3 days, you will have a new direction”. Wait until God touches you, don’t use your mind to get things to you—let God tell you, then praise God that things are finally coming to you. So, when direction and things begin to come in, just praise God!
Power Scripture: “Now then, you and all these people, get ready to cross the Jordan river into the land I am about to give to them—To the Israelites, I will give you every place where you set your foot, as I promised Moses.” Joshua 1:2-3
GUIDED BIBLE STUDY:
FROM THE DAYS OF JOHN THE BAPTIST UNTIL NOW, THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN HAS BEEN FOREFULLY ADVANCING, AND FORCEFUL MEN LAY HOLD OF IT. FOR ALL THE PROPHETS AND THE LAW PROPHESIED UNTIL JOHN. AND IF YOU ARE WILLING TO ACCEPT IT, HE IS THE ELIJAH WHO WAS TO COME. HE WHO HAS EARS, LET HIM HEAR. ‘’TO WHAT CAN I COMPARE THIS GENERATION? THEY ARE LIKE CHILDREN SITTING IN THE MARKETPLACES AND CALLING OUT TO OTHERS: ‘’WE PLAYED THE FLUTE FOR YOU, AND YOU DID NOT DANCE; WE SANG A DIRGE, ( A SLOW MOURNFUL PIECE OF MUSIC: A SONG OF LAMENTAION; GRIEF ANGUISH AND DESTUCTION ) AND YOU DID NOT MOURN.’ FOR JOHN CAME NEITHER EATING NOR DRINKING, AND THEY SAY, ‘HE WAS A DEMON.’ THE SON OF MAN CAME EATING AND DRINKING, AND THEY SAY, ‘HERE IS A GLUTTON AND A DRUNKARD, A FRIEND OF TAX COLLECTORS AND ‘’SINNER.’’ BUT WISDOM IS PROVED RIGHT BY HER ACTIONS.’’
MATTHEW 11:12-19
‘’NOT A MAN OF THIS EVIL GENERATION SHALL SEE THE GOOD LAND I SWORE TO GIVE YOUR FOREFATHERS, EXCEPT CALEB SON OF JEPHUNNEH. HE WILL SEE IT, AND I WILL GIVE HIM AND HIS DESCENDANTS THE LAND HE SET HIS FEET ON, BECAUSE HE FOLLOWED THE LORD WHOLEHEARTEDLY.’’
DEUTERONOMY 1:35-36
EAST OF THE JORDAN IN THE TERRITORY OF MOAB, MOSES BEGAN TO EXPOUND THIS LAW, SAYING: THE LORD OUR GOD SAID TO US AT HOREB,
( S.O.T.M. ) ‘’YOU HAVE STAYED LONG ENOUGH AT THIS MOUNTAIN. BREAK CAMP AND ADVANCE INTO THE HILL COUNTRY OF THE AMORITES; GO TO ALL THE NEIGHBORING PEOPLES IN THE ARABAH, IN THE MOUNTAINS, IN THE WESTERN FOOTHILLS, ( WATER TO WINE HAPPENS TO BE IN THE WESTERN PART OF TOWN IN THE FOOTHILLS OF LAKEWAY; I HEAR GOD! ) IN THE NEGEV AND ALONG THE COAST, ( ANYONE LOOKING FOR LAND ALONG THE COAST OF CORPUS CHRISTI TEXAS.) TO THE LAND OF THE CANAANITES AND TO LEBANON, AS FAR AS THE GREAT RIVER, THE EUPHRATES. SEE, I HAVE GIVEN YOU THIS LAND. GO IN AND TAKE POSSESSION OF THE LAND THAT THE LORD SWORE HE WOULD GIVE TO YOUR FATHERS---TO ABRHAM, ISAAC AND JACOB---AND TO THEIR DESCENDANTS AFTER THEM.’’
DEUTERONOMY 1:5-8
THEN, AS THE LORD OUR GOD COMMANDED US, WE SET OUT FROM HOREB AND WENT TOWARD THE HILL COUNTRY OF THE AMORITES THROUGH ALL THAT VAST AND DREADFUL DESERT ( VAST: VERY GREAT IN SIZE ENORMOUS, HUGE, GIGANTIC ) ( DREADFUL: FRIGHTENING EXTREMELY DISTASTEFUL, UNPLEASANT, SHOCKING ) THAT YOU HAVE SEEN,
DEUTERONOMY 1:19
THE LORD APPEARS TO ELIJAH AND SPOKE THESE WORDS TO HIM:
THE LORD SAID, ‘’GO OUT AND STAND ON THE MOUNTAIN IN THE PRESENCE OF THE LORD, FOR THE LORD IS ABOUT TO PASS BY.’’ THEN A GREAT AND POWERFUL WIND TORE THE MOUNTAINS APART AND SHATTERED THE ROCKS BEFORE THE LORD, BUT THE LORD WAS NOT IN THE WIND. AFTER THE WIND THERE WAS AN EARTHQUAKE, BUT THE LORD WAS NOT IN THE EARTHQUAKE. AFTER THE EARTHQUAKE CAME A FIRE, BUT THE LORD WAS NOT IN THE FIRE. AND AFTER THE FIRE CAME A GENTLE WHISPER.
1 KINGS 19:11-12
TONIGHT HAS THERE BEEN A GENTLE WHISPER INSIDE OF YOU SPEAKING TO YOUR SOUL? SAYING WITHIN; ‘’ TONIGHT MY CHILD BE STILL AND KNOW THAT I AM GOD; I AM IN THIS PLACE TO GIVE YOU INSTRUCTIONS.
SO ALONG YOUR JOURNEY TO THE LAND THAT WAS PROMISED; THE TRIP WILL NOT BE EASY; WE WILL GO THROUGH HARD TIMES; WE WILL GO THROUGH TRIALS AND GREAT TRIBULATIONS; BUT THIS IS THE TIMES OF YOUR FAITH GROWING STRONGER AND STRONGER: THESE ARE THE TIMES THAT YOU BEGAN TO LEARN THE POWER OF MY WORD; IN THIS PLACE YOU LEARN TO HEAR MY VOICE. YOU LEARN TO OBEY MY DIRECTION; YOU LEARN TO LISTEN AS I PLACE YOU ON THE PATH. YOU LEARN TO CALL UPON ME AND DISCOVER THAT I HEAR YOU. IN THIS PLACE YOU REALIZE THAT I ANSWER PRAYERS. YOU ALSO LEARN THAT NO GOOD THING I SHALL KEEP FROM YOU; YOU SHALL LACK NOTHING. THIS IS A GREAT PLACE TO BE; GOING THROUGH THE DESERT; THE DRY PLACES.
HAVE YOU NOTICED THAT GOD TOLD ELIJAH IN 1 KINGS 19:15 ‘’GO BACK THE WAY YOU CAME, AND GO TO THE DESERT OF DAMASCUS.
GOD HAD A PLAN FOR HIS LIFE: TONIGHT GOD HAS A PLAN FOR YOUR LIFE!
SEE, THE LORD YOUR GOD HAS GIVEN YOU THE LAND. GO UP AND TAKE POSSESSION OF IT AS THE LORD, THE GOD OF YOUR FATHERS, TOLD YOU. DO NOT BE DISCOURAGED.’’
DEUTERONOMY 1:21
DO NOT MERELY LISTEN TO THE WORD, AND SO DECEIVE YOURSELVES. DO WHAT IT SAYS. ANYONE WHO LISTENS TO THE WORD BUT DOES NOT DO WHAT IT SAYS IS LIKE A MAN WHO LOOKS AT HIS FACE IN A MIRROR AND, AFTER LOOKING AT HIMSELF, GOES AWAY AND IMMEDIATELY FORGETS WHAT HE LOOKS LIKE. BUT THE MAN WHO LOOKS INTENTLY INTO THE PERFECT LAW THAT GIVES FREEDOM, AND CONTINUES TO DO THIS, NOT FORGETTING WHAT HE HAS HEARD, BUT DOING IT---HE WILL BE BLESSED IN WHAT HE DOES.
JAMES 1:22-25
THE LORD YOUR GOD HAS BLESSED YOU IN ALL THE WORK OF YOUR HANDS. HE HAS WATCHED OVER YOUR JOURNEY THROUGH THIS VAST DESERT. THESE FORTY YEARS THE LORD YOUR GOD HAS BEEN WITH YOU, AND YOU HAVE NOT LACKED ANYTHING.
DEUTERONOMY 2:7
SEE, I HAVE TAUGHT YOU DECREES AND LAWS AS THE LORD MY GOD COMMANDED ME, SO THAT YOU MAY FOLLOW THEM IN THE LAND YOU ARE ENTERING TO TAKE POSSESSION OF IT. OBSERVE THEM CAREFULLY, FOR THIS WILL SHOW YOUR WISDOM AND UNDERSTANDING TO THE NATIONS, WHO WILL HEAR ABOUT ALL THESE DECREES AND SAY, ‘’SURELY THIS GREAT NATION IS A WISE AND UNDERSTANDING PEOPLE.’’ WHAT OTHER NATION IS SO GREAT AS TO HAVE THEIR gods NEAR THEM THE WAY THE LORD OUR GOD IS NEAR US WHENEVER WE PRAY TO HIM?
DEUTERONOMY 4:5-7
AFTER THE DEATH OF MOSES THE SERVANT OF THE LORD, THE LORD SAID TO JOSHUA SON OF NUNN, MOSES AIDE: ‘’MOSES MY SERVANT IS DEAD. NOW THEN, YOU AND ALL THESE PEOPLE, GET READY TO CROSS THE JORDAN RIVER INTO THE LAND I AM ABOUT TO GIVE TO THEM---TO THE ISRAELITES. I WILL GIVE YOU EVERY PLACE WHERE YOU SET YOUR FOOT, AS I PROMISED MOSES.
JOSHUA 1:1-3
THE TRUMPET IS BLOWING: GET THESE PEOPLE READY:
NOW FAITH IS BEING SURE OF WHAT WE HOPE FOR AND CERTAIN OF WHAT WE DO NOT SEE.
HEBREWS 11:1
THEREFORE WE DO NOT LOSE HEART. THOUGH OUTWARDLY WE ARE WASTING AWAY, YET INWARDLY ( THE SPIRIT THE SOUL ) WE ARE BEING RENEWED DAY BY DAY. FOR OUR LIGHT AND MOMENTARY TROUBLES ARE ACHIEVING FOR US AN ETERNAL GLORY THAT FAR OUTWEIGHS THEM ALL. SO WE FIX OUR EYES NOT ON WHAT IS SEEN, BUT ON WHAT IS UNSEEN. FOR WHAT IS SEEN IS TEMPORARY, BUT WHAT IS UNSEEN IS ETERNAL.
2 CORINTHIANS 4:16-18
HERE ARE THINGS THAT YOU CANNOT SEE IN THE NATURE REALM; BUT MY FAITH TELLS ME THAT SOMETHING IS TAKING PLACE IN THE SPIRITUAL REALM OF GOD TONIGHT!
AFTER THIS I LOOKED AND THERE BEFORE ME WAS A GREAT MULTITUDE THAT NO ONE COULD COUNT, FROM EVERY NATION, TRIBE, PEOPLE AND LANGUAGE, STANDING BEFORE THE THRONE AND IN FRONT OF THE LAMB. THEY WERE WEARING WHITE ROBES AND WERE HOLDING PALM BRANCHES IN THEIR HANDS. AND THEY CRIED IN A LOUD VOICE: ‘’SALVATION BELONGS TO OUR GOD, WHO SITS ON THE THRONE, AND TO THE LAMB.’’ ALL THE ANGELS WERE STANDING AROUND THE THRONE AND AROUND THE ELDERS AND THE FOUR LIVING CREATURES. THEY FELL DOWN ON THEIR FACES BEFORE THE THRONE AND WORSHIPED GOD, SAYING: AMEN! PRAISE AND GLORY AND WISDOM AND THANKS AND HONOR AND POWER AND STRENGHT BE TO OUR GOD FOR EVER AND EVER. AMEN!’’ THEN ONE OF THE ELDERS ASKED ME, ‘’THESE IN WHITE ROBES---WHO ARE THEY, AND WHERE DID THEY COME FROM?’’ I ANSWERED, ‘’SIR, YOU KNOW.’’ AND HE SAID, ‘’THESE ARE THEY WHO HAVE COME OUT OF THE GREAT TRIBULATION: THEY HAVE WASHED THEIR ROBES AND MADE THEM WHITE IN THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB. THEREFORE, ‘’THEY ARE BEFORE THE THRONE OF GOD AND SERVE HIM DAY AND NIGHT IN HIS TEMPLE; AND HE WHO SITS ON THE THRONE WILL SPREAD HIS TENT OVER THEM. NEVER AGAIN WILL THEY HUNGER; NEVER AGAIN WILL THEY THIRST. THE SUN WILL NOT BEAT UPON THEM, NOR ANY SCORCHING HEAT. FOR THE LAMB AT THE CENTER OF THE THRONE WILL BE THEIR SHEPHERD; HE WILL LEAD THEM TO SPRINGS OF LIVING WATER. AND GOD WILL WIPE AWAY EVERY TEAR FROM THEIR EYES.’’REVELATION 7:9-17

Distinction Between God's People
The Word is ours, but we have to go deeper and further in the Word. We have to possess this Word and put it on the tablets of our heart and meditate on it. We are walking into something that has already been done. That everyone may eat and drink, and find satisfaction in all his toil---this is the gift of God. God did all this so we can praise Him and revere Him! We do not participate in the bad news, our news headline is not CNN, it is WWJD who brings us the good news of the Word. This is now our life. We have to go deeper now and eat this Word till this revelation hits us so hard, that we hear God speaking to our souls. Work the Word and the Word will work for you. The Word, which is God, is a servant to us—therefore God is a servant to us, as we saw Jesus (who is God) be a servant to the people. We don’t even have to beg for anything, we are already marked to receive the transfer of wealth from the wicked—but only if we put it in our spirit and continue to revere and please God!

The Making of Man
We were made to FEAR GOD; LISTEN TO GOD, FOLLOW GOD’S LAW AND TO TRUST IN GOD. If we are built like this, we are blessed, if we are not like this we need to get there so we can be blessed. God will communicate to us through our souls using the prophets and the Men of God. We have to open up our souls, for God to speak to us so He can send things to us. If we doubt the Man of God, we doubt God. If we learn and obey the Bible, all prosperity will flow to us. If our souls are connected to the Spirit of God, He will lead, guide and take us to places that we only dreamed about.
1)Fear God, keep His commandments and give Him glory. Fear of God will actually bring us things! Fear of God is the beginning of knowledge. If you search for wisdom, knowledge, understanding, and insight like hidden treasure, we will get it and it will keep us on the right paths. Fear the Lord and it will bring health and healing, barns overflowing and vats filled with wine. Humility and fear of the Lord brings wealth and honor and life. God is doing something in our life. There are promises in the fear of the Lord. However, when the Lord is talking to us and we do not obey Him, then we do not fear the Lord.
2)We were made to listen to God. God wants us to receive His blessing, but we need our souls to pick up the voice of revelations from God and carefully listen and obey them. Listen to the angel that God sent to guard us and to listen attentively to us, and then the blessing will follow us every time we listen. Then God will be an enemy to our enemies. Listen to God, Hear God!
3)We were made to follow God’s Law and commands: God will shower us with blessings if we do. Everything we put our hands to will prosper.
4) We were made to trust God. Jesus is the Way, the Truth and the Life. Jesus is the Word made flesh. The Word is the Way (and our bailout plan). The Word is God. When we know the Word, then we will know God. “From now on, you have seen Him and you know Him” “I am in the Father and the Father is in me” God lives in those who know the Word. When they open their mouths, it is the Father who is speaking through them, because they know God. “You may ask me for anything in my name and I will do it.”
GUIDED BIBLE STUDY:
THEN GOD SAID, ‘’LET US MAKE MAN IN OUR IMAGE, IN OUR LIKENESS, AND LET THEM RULE OVER THE FISH OF THE SEA AND THE BIRDS OF THE AIR, OVER THE LIVESTOCK, OVER ALL THE EARTH, AND OVER ALL THE CREATURES THAT MOVE ALONG THE GROUND.’’ ( SATAN’S DEMONS )
SO GOD CREATED MAN IN HIS OWN IMAGE, IN THE IMAGE OF GOD HE CREATED HIM; MALE AND FEMALE HE CREATED THEM. GOD BLESSED THEM AND SAID TO THEM, ‘’BE FRUITFUL AND INCREASE IN NUMBER;
GENESIS 1:26-28
SO THE LORD GOD SAID TO THE SERPENT, BECAUSE YOU HAVE DONE THIS, ‘’CURSED ARE YOU ABOVE ALL THE LIVESTOCK AND ALL THE WILD ANIMALS! YOU WILL CRAWL ON YOUR BELLY AND EAT DUST ALL THE DAYS OF YOUR LIFE.
GENESIS 3:14
‘’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 HE IS NOT SERVED BY HUMAN HANDS, AS IF HE NEEDED ANYTHING, BECAUSE HE HIMSELF GIVES ALL MEN LIFE AND BREATH AND EVERYTHING ELSE. FROM ONE MAN HE MADE EVERY NATION OF MEN, THAT THEY SHOULD INHABIT THE WHOLE EARTH; AND HE DETERMINED THE TIMES SET IN 2009 FOR THEM AND EXACT PLACES WHERE THEY SHOULD LIVE. GOD DID THIS SO THAT MEN WOULD SEEK HIM AND PERHAPS REACH OUT FOR HIM AND FIND HIM, THOUGH HE IS NOT FAR FROM EACH ONE OF US. FOR IN HIM WE LIVE AND MOVE AND HAVE OUR BEING.’’
ACTS 17:24-28
FOR YOU CREATED MY INMOST BEING; YOU KNIT ME TOGETHER IN MY MOTHER’S WOMB. I PRAISE YOU BECAUSE I AM FEARFULLY AND WONDERFULLY MADE; YOUR WORKS ARE WONDERFUL, I KNOW THAT FULL WELL. MY FRAME WAS NOT HIDDEN FROM YOU WHEN I WAS MADE IN THE SECRET PLACE. WHEN I WAS WOVEN TOGETHER IN THE DEPTHS OF THE EARTH, YOUR EYES SAW MY UNFORMED BODY. ALL THE DAYS ORDAINED FOR ME WERE WRITTEN IN YOUR BOOK BEFORE ONE OF THEM CAME TO BE.
PSALM 139:13-16
WHERE CAN I GO FROM YOUR SPIRIT? WHERE CAN I FLEE FROM YOUR PRESENCE? IF I GO UP TO THE HEAVENS, YOU ARE THERE; IF I MAKE MY BED IN THE DEPTHS, YOU ARE THERE. IF I RISE ON THE WINGS OF THE DAWN, IF I SETTLE ON THE FAR SIDE OF THE SEA, EVEN THERE YOUR HAND WILL GUIDE ME, YOUR RIGHT HAND WILL HOLD ME FAST.
PSALM 139:7-10
WE WERE MADE TO FEAR GOD; ACCORDING TO THE WORD OF GOD:
THE FEAR OF THE LORD IS THE BEGINNING OF KNOWLEDGE, BUT FOOLS DESPISE WISDOM AND DISCIPLE.
PROVERBS 1:7
MY SON, IF YOU ACCEPT MY WORDS AND STORE UP MY COMMANDS WITHIN YOU, TURNING YOUR EAR TO WISDOM AND APPLYING YOUR HEART TO UNDERSTANDING, AND IF YOU CALL OUT FOR INSIGHT AND CRY ALOUD FOR UNDERSTANDING, AND IF YOU LOOK FOR IT AS FOR SILVER AND SEARCH FOR IT AS FOR HIDDEN TREASURE, THEN YOU WILL UNDERSTAND THE FEAR OF THE LORD AND FIND THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD. FOR THE LORD GIVES WISDOM, AND FROM HIS MOUTH COME KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING. HE HOLDS VICTORY IN STORE FOR THE UPRIGHT, HE IS A SHIELD TO THOSE WHOSE WALK IS BLAMELESS, FOR HE GUARDS THE COURSE OF THE JUST AND PROTECTS THE WAY OF HIS FAITHFUL ONES. THEN YOU WILL UNDERSTAND WHAT IS RIGHT AND JUST AND FAIR---EVERY GOOD PATH.
PROVERBS 2:1-9
TRUST IN THE LORD WITH ALL YOUR HEART AND LEAN NOT ON YOUR OWN UNDERSTANDING; IN ALL YOUR WAYS ACKNOWLEDGE HIM, AND HE WILL MAKE YOUR PATHS STRAIGHT. DO NOT BE WISE IN YOUR OWN EYES; FEAR THE LORD AND SHUN EVIL. THIS WILL BRING HEALTH TO YOUR BODY AND NOURISHMENT TO YOUR BONES. HONOR THE LORD WITH YOUR WEALTH, WITH THE FIRSTFRUITS OF ALL YOUR CROPS; THEN YOUR BARNS WILL BE FILLED TO OVERFLOWING, AND YOUR VATS WILL BRIM OVER WITH NEW WINE.
PROVERBS 3:5-10
THE FEAR OF THE LORD LEADS TO LIFE: THEN ONE RESTS CONTENT, UNTOUCHED BY TROUBLE.
PROVERBS 19:23
HUMILITY AND THE FEAR OF THE LORD BRING WEALTH AND HONOR AND LIFE.
PROVERBS 22:4
FEAR THE LORD AND THE KING, MY SON, AND DO NOT JOIN WITH THE REBELLIOUS, FOR THOSE TWO WILL SEND SUDDEN DESTRUCTION UPON THEM, AND WHO KNOWS WHAT CALAMITIES THEY CAN BRING?
PROVERBS 24:21-22
THE LORD IS RIGHTEOUS IN ALL HIS WAYS AND LOVING TOWARD ALL HE HAS MADE. THE LORD IS NEAR TO ALL WHO CALL ON HIM, TO ALL WHO CALL ON HIM IN TRUTH. HE FULFILLS THE DESIRES OF THOSE WHO FEAR HIM; HE HEARS THEIR CRY AND SAVES THEM. THE LORD WATCHES OVER ALL WHO LOVE HIM, BUT ALL THE WICKED HE WILL DESTROY.
PSALM 145:17-20
THEN I SAW ANOTHER ANGEL FLYING IN MIDAIR, AND HE HAD THE ETERNAL GOSPEL TO PROCLAIM TO THOSE WHO LIVE ON THE EARTH--- TO EVERY NATION, TRIBE, LANGUAGE AND PEOPLE. HE SAID IN A LOUD VOICE, ‘’FEAR GOD AND GIVE HIM GLORY, BECAUSE THE HOUR OF HIS JUDGEMENT HAS COME. WORSHIP HIM WHO MADE THE HEAVENS, THE EARTH, THE SEA AND THE SPRINGS OF WATER.’’
REVELATION 14:6-7
NOW ALL HAS BEEN HEARD; HERE IS THE CONCLUSION OF THE MATTER: FEAR GOD AND KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS, FOR THIS IS THE WHOLE DUTY OF MAN. FOR GOD WILL BRING EVERY DEED INTO JUDGEMENT, INCLUDING EVERY HIDDEN THING, WHETHER IT IS GOOD OR EVIL.
ECCLESIASTES 12:13-14
WE WERE MADE TO LISTEN TO GOD; ACCORDING TO THE WORD:
‘’IF MY PEOPLE WOULD BUT LISTEN TO ME, IF ISRAEL WOULD FOLLOW MY WAYS, HOW QUICKLY WOULD I SUBDUE THEIR ENEMIES AND TURN MY HAND AGAINST THEIR FOES! THOSE WHO HATE THE LORD WOULD CRINGE BEFORE HIM, AND THEIR PUNISHMENT WOULD LAST FOREVER. BUT YOU WOULD BE FED WITH THE FINEST OF WHEAT; WITH HONEY FROM THE ROCK I WOULD SATISFY YOU.’’
PSALM 81:13-16
HE SAID, ’’IF YOU LISTEN CAREFULLY TO THE VOICE OF THE LORD YOUR GOD AND DO WHAT IS RIGHT IN HIS EYES, IF YOU PAY ATTENTION TO HIS COMMANDS AND KEEP ALL HIS DECREES, I WILL NOT BRING ON YOU ANY OF THE DISEASES I BROUGHT ON THE EGYPTAIANS, FOR I AM THE LORD, WHO HEALS YOU.’’
EXODUS 15:26-27
‘’SEE, I AM SENDING AN ANGEL AHEAD OF YOU TO GUARD YOU ALONG THE WAY AND TO BRING YOU TO THE PLACE I HAVE PREPARED. PAY ATTENTION TO HIM AND LISTEN TO WHAT HE SAYS. DO NOT REBEL AGAINST HIM; HE WILL NOT FORGIVE YOUR REBELLION, SINCE MY NAME IS IN HIM. IF YOU LISTEN CAREFULLY TO WHAT HE SAYS AND DO ALL THAT I SAY, I WILL BE AN ENEMY TO YOUR ENEMIES AND WILL OPPOSE THOSE WHO OPPOSE YOU.
EXODUS 23:20-22
THIS DAY I CALL HEAVEN AND EARTH AS WITNESSES AGAINST YOU THAT I HAVE SET BEFORE YOU LIFE AND DEATH, BLESSINGS AND CURSES. NOW CHOOSE LIFE, SO THAT YOU AND YOUR CHILDREN MAY LIVE AND THAT YOU MAY LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD, LISTEN TO HIS VOICE, AND HOLD FAST TO HIM.
DEUTERONOMY 30:19-20
‘’COME, ALL YOU WHO ARE THIRSTY, COME TO THE WATERS; AND YOU WHO HAVE NO MONEY, COME, BUY AND EAT! COME, BUY WINE AND MILK WITHOUT MONEY AND WITHOUT COST. WHY SPEND MONEY ON WHAT IS NOT BREAD, AND YOUR LABOR ON WHAT DOES NOT SATISTY? LISTEN, LISTEN TO ME, AND EAT WHAT IS GOOD, AND YOUR SOUL WILL DELIGHT IN THE RICHEST OF FARE. GIVE EAR AND COME TO ME; HEAR ME, THAT YOUR SOUL MAY LIVE.
ISAIAH 55:1-3
THIS IS WHAT THE LORD SAYS: ‘’STAND AT THE CROSSROADS AND LOOK; ASK FOR THE ANCIENT PATHS, ASK WHERE THE GOOD WAY IS, AND WALK IN IT, AND YOU WILL FIND REST FOR YOUR SOULS. BUT YOU SAID, WE WILL NOT WALK IN IT.’ I APPOINTED WATCHMEN OVER YOU AND SAID, ‘LISTEN TO THE SOUND OF THE TRUMPET!’ BUT YOU SAID, ‘WE WILL NOT LISTEN.’ THEREFORE HEAR, O NATIONS; OBSERVE, O WITNESSES, WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO THEM. HEAR, O EARTH: I AM BRINGING DISASTER ON THIS PEOPLE, THE FRUIT OF THEIR SCHEMES, BECAUSE THEY HAVE NOT LISTENED TO MY WORDS AND HAVE REJECTED MY LAW.
JEREMIAH 6:16-19
WE WERE MADE TO FOLLOW GOD’S LAW AND COMMANDS:
IF YOU FULLY OBEY THE LORD YOUR GOD AND CAREFULLY FOLLOW ALL HIS COMMANDS I GIVE YOU TODAY, THE LORD YOUR GOD WILL SET YOU HIGH ABOVE ALL THE NATIONS ON EARTH. ALL THESE BLESSINGS WILL COME UPON YOU AND ACCOMPANY YOU IF YOU OBEY THE LORD YOUR GOD: YOU WILL BE BLESSED IN THE CITY AND BLESSED IN THE COUNTRY. THE FRUIT OF YOUR WOMB WILL BE BLESSED, AND THE CROPS OF YOUR LAND AND THE YOUNG OF YOUR LIVESTOCK---THE CALVES OF YOUR HERDS AND THE LAMBS OF YOUR FLOCKS. YOUR BASKET AND YOUR KNEADING TROUGH WILL BE BLESSED. YOU WILL BE BLESSED WHEN YOU COME IN AND BLESSED WHEN YOU GO OUT. THE LORD WILL GRANT THAT THE ENEMIES WHO RISE UP AGAINST YOU WILL BE DEFEATED BEFORE YOU. THEY WILL COME AT YOU FROM ONE DIRECTION BUT FLEE FROM YOU IN SEVEN. THE LORD WILL SEND A BLESSING ON YOUR BARNS AND ON EVERYTHING YOU PUT YOUR HAND TO. THE LORD YOUR GOD WILL BLESS YOU IN THE LAND HE IS GIVING YOU.
DEUTERONOMY 28:1-8
WE WERE MADE TO TRUST IN THE LORD: ACCORDING TO THE WORD:
TRUST IN THE LORD FOREVER, FOR THE LORD, THE LORD, IS THE ROCK ETERNAL.
ISAIAH 26:4
THE LORD IS GOOD, A REFUGE IN TIMES OF TROUBLE. HE CARES FOR THOSE WHO TRUST IN HIM,
NAHUM 1:7
THEN JESUS TOLD THEM, ‘’YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE THE LIGHT JUST A LITTLE WHILE LONGER. WALK WHILE YOU HAVE THE LIGHT, BEFORE DARKNESS OVERTAKES YOU. THE MAN WHO WALKS IN THE DARK DOES NOT KNOW WHERE HE IS GOING. PUT YOUR TRUST IN THE LIGHT WHILE YOU HAVE IT, SO THAT YOU MAY BECOME SONS OF LIGHT.’’ WHEN HE HAD FINISHED SPEAKING, JESUS LEFT AND HID HIMSELF FROM THEM.
JOHN 12:35-36
‘’DO NOT LET YOUR HEARTS BE TROUBLED. TRUST IN GOD; TRUST ALSO IN ME. IN MY FATHER’S HOUSE ARE MANY ROOMS; IF IT WERE NOT SO, I WOULD HAVE TOLD YOU. I AM GOING THERE TO PREPARE A PLACE FOR YOU. AND IF I GO AND PREPARE A PLACE FOR YOU, I WILL COME BACK AND TAKE YOU TO BE WITH ME THAT YOU ALSO MAY BE WHERE I AM. YOU KNOW THE WAY TO THE PLACE WHERE I AM GOING.’’ THOMAS SAID TO HIM, ‘’LORD, WE DON’T KNOW WHERE YOU ARE GOING, SO HOW CAN WE KNOW THE WAY?’’ JESUS ANSWERED, ‘’I AM THE WAY AND THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE. NO ONE COMES TO THE FATHER EXCEPT THROUGH ME. IF YOU REALLY KNEW ME, YOU WOULD KNOW MY FATHER AS WELL. FROM NOW ON, YOU DO KNOW HIM AND HAVE SEEN HIM.’’ PHILIP SAID, ‘’LORD, SHOW US THE FATHER AND THAT WILL BE ENOUGH FOR US.’’ JESUS ANSWERED: ‘’DON’T YOU KNOW ME, PHILIP, EVEN AFTER I HAVE BEEN AMONG YOU SUCH A LONG TIME? ANYONE WHO HAS SEEN ME HAS SEEN THE FATHER. HOW CAN YOU SAY, ‘’SHOW US THE FATHER? DON’T YOU BELIEVE THAT I AM IN THE FATHER, AND THAT THE FATHER IS IN ME? THE WORDS I SAY TO YOU ARE NOT JUST MY OWN. RATHER, IT IS THE FATHER, LIVING IN ME, WHO IS DOING HIS WORK. BELIEVE ME WHEN I SAY THAT I AM IN THE FATHER AND THE FATHER IS IN ME; OR AT LEAST BELIEVE ON THE EVIDENCE OF THE MIRACLES THEMSELVES. I TELL YOU THE TRUTH, ANYONE WHO HAS FAITH IN ME WILL DO WHAT I HAVE BEEN DOING. HE WILL DO EVEN GREATER THINGS THAN THESE, BECAUSE I AM GOING TO THE FATHER. AND I WILL DO WHATEVER YOU ASK IN MY NAME, SO THAT THE SON MAY BRING GLORY TO THE FATHER. YOU MAY ASK ME FOR ANYTHING TONIGHT IN MY NAME, AND I WILL DO IT.
JOHN 14:1-14

Fully Commit to the Lord; For He Has Done Great Things For Us
Our attitudes should be the same as Jesus who was God as He faithfully committed to come to earth to save us. In a like manner, we should treat our “earthly masters” our pastors like we treat Christ and also serve them wholeheartedly. We used to be slaves to sin, but when the Word begins to come in from the pastors, we are set free and become slaves to righteousness. We are supposed to listen and obey the Word from God and not put anything before God. Our lives depend on our full commitment to God. God searches the earth looking for people fully committed to Him. Commit to God and all your plans will succeed. God gives us a committed promise: If we prove ourselves faithful to God, then He will entrust us with the secret things of God which produces the fear of the Lord in us, which makes us obey and listen to God and not put anything before Him. Those who fear Him, they lack nothing! God will open up the windows of heaven and pour out blessings on the faithful and wholehearted committed ones. God searches the earth, and says, “A faithful man, who can I find?”
Be wholeheartedly faithful and God will speak to you. Trust in the Lord, cast all your fears on Him and He will give you the desires of your heart. God wants us to make the right choices, so we can operate in the power of God. A faithful man will be richly blessed. We must qualify ourselves by serving him wholeheartedly and faithfully, all the time. Choose which master that you will serve and commit to him 100%. What didn’t work before will work now because of our commitment. God said He will instruct and teach us in the way we should go and He will watch over us and protect us because we are faithful and committed to Him. Do we fear God enough to come when He tells you to come? If you do not fear God you will lack things. If you change, God will change you. Obey God, listen to Him and follow Him, and lack will leave you.
Power Scripture: But thanks be to God that, though you used to be slaves to sin, you wholeheartedly obeyed the form of teaching to which you were entrusted. You have been set free from sin and have become slaves to righteousness. Romans 6:17-18
GUIDED BIBLE STUDY:
THE LORD REPLIED, ‘’I HAVE FORGIVEN THEM, AS YOU ASKED. NEVERTHELESS, AS SURELY AS I LIVE AND AS SURELY AS THE GLORY OF THE LORD FILLS THE WHOLE EARTH, NOT ONE OF THE MEN WHO SAW MY GLORY AND THE MIRACULOUS SIGNS I PERFORMED IN EGYPT AND IN THE DESERT BUT WHO DISOBEYED ME AND TESTED ME TEN TIMES---NOT ONE OF THEM WILL EVER SEE THE LAND I PROMISED ON OATH TO THEIR FOREFATHERS. NO ONE WHO HAS TREATED ME WITH CONTEMPT WILL EVER SEE IT. BUT BECAUSE MY SERVANT CALEB HAS A DIFFERENT SPIRIT AND FOLLOWS ME WHOLEHEARTEDLY, I WILL BRING HIM INTO THE LAND HE WENT TO, AND HIS DESCENDANTS WILL INHERIT IT.
NUMBERS 14:20-24
IN THOSE DAYS HEZEKIAH BECAME ILL AND WAS AT THE POINT OF DEATH. THE PROPHET ISAIAH SON OF AMOZ WENT TO HIM AND SAID, ‘’THIS IS WHAT THE LORD SAYS: PUT YOUR HOUSE IN ORDER, BECAUSE YOU ARE GOING TO DIE; YOU WILL NOT RECOVER.’’ HEZEKIAH TURNED HIS FACE TO THE WALL AND PRAYED TO THE LORD, ‘’REMEMBER, O LORD, HOW I HAVE WALKED BEFORE YOU FAITHFULLY AND WITH WHOLEHEARTED DEVOTION AND HAVE DONE WHAT IS GOOD IN YOUR EYES.’’ AND HEZEKIAH WEPT BITTERLY. BEFORE ISAIAH HAD LEFT THE MIDDLE COURT, THE WORD OF THE LORD CAME TO HIM: ‘’GO BACK AND TELL HEZEKIAH, THE LEADER OF MY PEOPLE, ‘THIS IS WHAT THE LORD, THE GOD OF YOUR FATHER DAVID, SAYS: I HAVE HEARD YOUR PRAYER AND SEEN YOUR TEARS: I WILL HEAL YOU. ON THE THIRD DAY FROM NOW YOU WILL GO UP TO THE TEMPLE OF THE LORD. I WILL ADD FIFTEEN YEARS TO YOUR LIFE. AND I WILL DELIVER YOU AND THIS CITY FROM THE HAND OF THE KING OF ASSYRIA. I WILL DEFEND THIS CITY FOR THE SAKE OF MY SERVANT DAVID.’’
2 KINGS 20:1-6
‘’SO NOW I CHARGE YOU IN THE SIGHT OF ALL ISRAEL AND OF THE ASSEMBLY OF THE LORD, AND IN THE HEARING OF OUR GOD: BE CAREFULTO FOLLOW ALL THE COMMANDS OF THE LORD YOUR GOD, THAT YOU MAY POSSESS THIS GOOD LAND AND PASS IT ON AS AN INHERITANCE TO YOUR DESCENDANTS FOREVER. ‘’AND YOU, MY SON SOLOMON, ACKNOWLEDGE THE GOD OF YOUR FATHER, AND SERVE HIM WITH WHOLEHEARTED DEVOTION AND WITH A WILLING MIND, FOR THE LORD SEARCHES EVERY HEART AND UNDERSTANDS EVERY MOTIVE BEHIND THE THOUGHTS. IF YOU SEEK HIM, HE WILL BE FOUND BY YOU: BUT IF YOU FORSAKE HIM, HE WILL REJECT YOU FOREVER.
1 CHRONICLES 28:8-9
YOU WANT SOMETHING BUT DON’T GET IT. YOU KILL AND COVET, BUT YOU CANNOT HAVE WHAT YOU WANT. YOU QUARREL AND FIGHT. YOU DO NOT HAVE, BECAUSE YOU DO NOT ASK GOD. WHEN YOU ASK, YOU DO NOT RECEIVE, BECAUSE YOU ASK WITH WRONG MOTIVES, THAT YOU MAY SPEND WHAT YOU GET ON YOUR PLEASURES.
JAMES 4:2-4
SLAVES, OBEY YOUR EARTHLY MASTERS WITH RESPECT AND FEAR, AND WITH SINCERITY OF HEART, JUST AS YOU WOULD OBEY CHRIST. OBEY THEM NOT ONLY TO WIN THEIR FAVOR WHEN THEIR EYE IS ON YOU, BUT LIKE SLAVES OF CHRIST, DOING THE WILL OF GOD FROM YOUR HEART. SERVE WHOLEHEARTEDLY, AS IF YOU WERE SERVING THE LORD, NOT MEN, BECAUSE YOU KNOW THAT THE LORD WILL REWARD EVERYONE FOR WHATEVER GOOD HE DOES, WHETHER HE IS SLAVE OR FREE. AND MASTERS, TREAT YOUR SLAVES IN THE SAME WAY. DO NOT THREATEN THEM, SINCE YOU KNOW THAT HE WHO IS BOTH THEIR MASTER AND YOURS IS IN HEAVEN, AND THERE IS NO FAVORITISM WITH HIM.
EPHESIANS 6:5-9
BUT THANKS BE TO GOD THAT, THOUGH YOU USED TO BE SLAVES TO SIN, YOU WHOLEHEARTEDLY OBEYED THE FORM OF TEACHING TO WHICH YOU WERE ENTRUSTED. YOU HAVE BEEN SET FREE FROM SIN AND HAVE BECOME SLAVES TO RIGHTEOUSNESS.
ROMANS 6:17-18
YOUR ATTITUDE SHOULD BE THE SAME AS THAT OF CHRIST JESUS: WHO, BEING IN VERY NATURE GOD, DID NOT CONSIDER EQUALITY WITH GOD SOMETHING TO BE GRASPED, BUT MADE HIMSELF NOTHING, TAKING THE VERY NATURE OF A SERVANT, BEING MADE IN HUMAN LIKENESS. AND BEING FOUND IN APPEARANCE AS A MAN, HE HUMBLED HIMSELF AND BECAME OBEDIENT TO DEATH---EVEN DEATH ON A CROSS! THEREFORE GOD EXALTED HIM TO THE HIGHEST PLACE AND GAVE HIM THE NAME THAT IS ABOVE EVERY NAME, THAT AT THE NAME OF JESUS EVERY KNEE SHOULD BOW, IN HEAVEN AND ON EARTH AND UNDER THE EARTH, AND EVERY TONGUE CONFESS THAT JESUS CHRIST IS LORD, TO THE GLORY OF GOD THE FATHER.
PHILIPPIANS 2:5-11
YOU MUST NOTICE THAT THE BIBLE DID NOT SAY; WHO BEING IN THE VERY NATURE OF GOD; BUT IT IS WRITTEN; (BEING IN VERY NATURE GOD)
FOR THE EYES OF THE LORD RANGE THROUGHOUT THE EARTH TO STRENGTHEN THOSE WHOSE HEARTS ARE FULLY COMMITTED TO HIM.
2 CHRONICLES 16:9
COMMIT TO THE LORD WHATEVER YOU DO, AND YOUR PLANS WILL SUCCEED. THE LORD WORKS OUT EVERYTHING FOR HIS OWN ENDS--- EVEN THE WICKED FOR A DAY OF DISASTER.
PROVERBS 16:3-4
TRUST IN THE LORD AND DO GOOD; DWELL IN THE LAND AND ENJOY SAFE PASTURE.DELIGHT YOURSELF IN THE LORD AND HE WILL GIVE YOU THE DESIRES OF YOUR HEART. COMMIT YOUR WAY TO THE LORD; TRUST IN HIM AND HE WILL DO THIS: HE WILL MAKE YOUR RIGHTEOUSNESS SHINE LIKE THE DAWN, THE JUSTICE OF YOUR CAUSE LIKE THE NOONDAY SUN. BE STILL BEFORE THE LORD AND WAIT PATIENTLY FOR HIM; DO NOT FRET WHEN MEN SUCCEED IN THEIR WAYS, WHEN THEY CARRY OUT THEIR WICKED SCHEMES.
PSALM 37:3-7
TO THE PEOPLE WHO ARE FULLY COMMITTED TO THE LORD THIS DAY: GOD HAS A WORD JUST FOR YOU: A COMMITTED PROMISE; IT’S WRITTEN!
SO THEN, MEN OUGHT TO REGARD US AS SERVANTS OF CHRIST AND THOSE ENTRUSTED WITH THE SECRET THINGS OF GOD. NOW IT IS REQUIRED THAT THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN GIVEN A TRUST MUST PROVE FAITHFUL.
1 CORINTHIANS 4:1
FOR THE WORD OF THE LORD IS RIGHT AND TRUE; HE IS FAITHFUL IN ALL HE DOES.
PSALM 33:4
MANY A MAN CLAIMS TO HAVE UNFAILING LOVE, BUT A FAITHFUL MAN WHO CAN FIND?
PROVERBS 20:6
‘’WHO THEN IS THE FAITHFUL AND WISE SERVANT, WHOM THE MASTER HAS PUT IN CHARGE OF THE SERVANTS IN HIS HOUSEHOLD TO GIVE THEM THEIR FOOD AT THE PROPER TIME IN 2009. IT WILL BE GOOD FOR THAT SERVANT WHOSE MASTER FINDS HIM DOING SO WHEN HE RETURNS IN 2009. I TELL YOU THE TRUTH, HE WILL PUT HIM IN CHARGE OF ALL HIS POSSESSIONS.
MATTHEW 24:45
‘’HIS MASTER REPLIED, ‘WELL DONE, GOOD AND FAITHFUL SERVANT! YOU HAVE BEEN FAITHFUL WITH A FEW THINGS; I WILL PUT YOU IN CHARGE OF MANY THINGS IN 2009. COME AND SHARE YOUR MASTER’S HAPPINESS!’
MATTHEW 25:23
A FAITHFUL MAN WILL BE RICHLY BLESSED, BUT ONE EAGER TO GET RICH WILL NOT GO UNPUNISHED.
PROVERBS 28:20
I WILL INSTRUCT YOU AND TEACH YOU IN THE WAY YOU SHOULD GO; I WILL COUNSEL YOU AND WATCH OVER YOU.
PSALM 32:8
BLESSED IS THE NATION WHOSE GOD IS THE LORD, THE PEOPLE HE CHOSE FOR HIS INHERITANCE. FROM HEAVEN THE LORD LOOKS DOWN AND SEES ALL MANKIND; FROM HIS DWELLING PLACE HE WATCHES ALL WHO LIVE ON EARTH---HE WHO FORMS THE HEARTS OF ALL, WHO CONSIDERS EVERYTHING THEY DO.
PSALM 33:12-15
TASTE AND SEE THAT THE LORD IS GOOD; BLESSED IS THE MAN WHO TAKES REFUGE IN HIM. FEAR THE LORD, YOU HIS SAINTS, FOR THOSE WHO FEAR HIM LACK NOTHING. THE LIONS MAY GROW WEAK AND HUNGRY, BUT THOSE WHO SEEK THE LORD LACK NO GOOD THING.
PSALM 34:8-10
THE RIGHTEOUS CRY OUT, AND THE LORD HEARS THEM; HE DELIVERS THEM FROM ALL THEIR TROUBLES. THE LORD IS CLOSE TO THE BROKENHEARTED AND SAVES THOSE WHO ARE CRUSHED IN SPIRIT.
A RIGHTEOUS MAN MAY HAVE MANY TROUBLES, BUT THE LORD DELIVERS HIM FROM THEM ALL; HE PROTECTS ALL HIS BONES, NOT ONE OF THEM WLL BE BROKEN. EVIL WILL SLAY THE WICKED; THE FOES OF THE RIGHTEOUS WILL BE CONDEMNED. THE LORD REDEEMS HIS SERVANTS; NO ONE WILL BE CONDEMNED WHO TAKES REFUGE IN HIM.
PSALM 34:17-22
DEAR FRIENDS, DO NOT BE SURPRISE AT THE PAINFUL TRIAL YOU ARE SUFFERING, AS THOUGH SOMETHING STRANGE WERE HAPPENING TO YOU. BUT REJOICE THAT YOU PARTICIPATE IN THE SUFFERINGS OF CHRIST, SO THAT YOU MAY BE OVERJOYED WHEN HIS GLORY IS REVEALED. IF YOU ARE INSULTED BECAUSE OF THE NAME OF CHRIST, YOU ARE BLESSED, FOR THE SPIRIT OF GLORY AND OF GOD RESTS ON YOU. IF YOU SUFFER, IT SHOULD NOT BE AS A MURDERER OR THIEF OR ANY OTHER KIND OF CRIMINAL, OR EVEN A MEDDLER. HOWEVER, IF YOU SUFFER AS A CHRISTIAN, DO NOT BE ASHAMED, BUT PRAISE GOD THAT YOU BEAR THAT NAME. FOR IT IS TIME FOR JUDGMENT TO BEGIN WITH THE FAMILY OF GOD; AND IF IT BEGINS WITH US, WHAT WILL THE OUTCOME BE FOR THOSE WHO DO NOT OBEY THE GOSPEL OF GOD? AND , ‘’IF IT IS HARD FOR THE RIGHTEOUS TO BE SAVED, WHAT WILL BECOME OF THE UNGODLY AND THE SINNER?’’ SO THEN, THOSE WHO SUFFER ACCORDING TO GOD’S WILL SHOULD COMMIT THEMSELVES TO THEIR FAITHFUL CREATOR AND CONTINUE TO DO GOOD.
1 PETER 4:12-19
THEREFORE, SINCE CHRIST SUFFERED IN HIS BODY, ARM YOURSELVES ALSO WITH THE SAME ATTITUDE, BECAUSE HE WHO HAS SUFFERED IN HIS BODY IS DONE WITH SIN. AS A RESULT, HE DOES NOT LIVE THE REST OF HIS EARTHLY LIFE FOR EVIL HUMAN DESIRES, BUT RATHER FOR THE WILL OF GOD. FOR YOU HAVE SPENT ENOUGH TIME IN THE PAST DOING WHAT PAGANS CHOOSE TO DO---LIVING IN DEBAUCHERY, LUST, DRUNKENNESS, ORGIES, CAROUSING AND DETESTABLE IDOLATRY. THEY THINK IT STRANGE THAT YOU DO NOT PLUNGE WITH THEM INTO THE SAME FLOOD OF DISSIPATION, AND THEY HEAP ABUSE ON YOU. BUT THEY WILL HAVE TO GIVE ACCOUNT TO HIM WHO IS READY TO JUDGE THE LIVING AND THE DEAD. FOR THIS IS THE REASON THE GOSPEL WAS PREACHED EVEN TO THOSE WHO ARE NOW DEAD, SO THAT THEY MIGHT BE JUDGED ACCORDING TO MEN IN REGARD TO THE BODY, BUT LIVE ACCORDING TO GOD IN REGARD TO THE SPIRIT. THE END OF ALL THINGS IS NEAR. THEREFORE BE CLEAR MINDED AND SELF-CONTROLLED SO THAT YOU CAN PRAY.
1 PETER 4:1-7
HUMBLE YOURSELVES, THEREFORE, UNDER GOD’S MIGHTY HAND, THAT HE MAY LIFT YOU UP IN DUE TIME. CAST ALL YOUR ANXIETY ON HIM BECAUSE HE CARES FOR YOU. BE SELF-CONTROLLED AND ALERT, YOUR ENEMY THE DEVIL PROWLS AROUND LIKE A ROARING LION LOOKING FOR SOMEONE TO DEVOUR. RESIST HIM, STANDING FIRM IN THE FAITH, BECAUSE YOU KNOW THAT YOUR BROTHERS THROUGOUT THE WORLD ARE UNDERGOING THE SAME KIND OF SUFFERINGS. AND THE GOD OF ALL GRACE, WHO CALLED YOU TO HIS ETERNAL GLORY IN CHRIST, AFTER YOU HAVE SUFFERED A LITTLE WHILE, WILL HIMSELF RESTORE YOU AND MAKE YOU STRONG, FIRM AND STEADFAST. TO HIM BE THE POWER FOR EVER AND EVER. AMEN.
1 PETER 5:6-11

The Blessing - What dos that Mean
God is always watching the righteous, if God’s people begin to think exactly alike—according to God’s Word, we will begin to inherit blessings after blessings. We were called by God to do good, and if we obey, we will inherit The Blessing. (This is rain that is coming down on our land. Nothing will harm us and nothing will bother us). We must understand how The Blessing works. Who is going to harm us if we are eager to do good? Do not fear what they fear, never fear what we hear, and read the Word. Once God attaches The Blessing to our lives, then blessings come to us. Be prepared because these things are ready to come to us. God will multiply the seed that we give out. Believe God and wait on God, The Blessing is upon our lives right now, and things will come to us.
Like Abraham, after waiting patiently, we will receive what was promised. We will receive from God, because God has already spoken it. The angels have to go and get the blessings for us. Do not doubt God, if we have any doubt, we will not get the promise. God chose us, we have a spirit of love, we are set apart and are not like the nations. No weapon formed against us will prosper.
Blessing released from the Lord. EZ 34:22-31

Blow The Trumpet! 2009 The Year of the Unexpected
2009 THE YEAR OF THE UNEXPECTED
SPIRIT OF TRUTH MEMBERS JAN. 1, 2009
Unexpected and unusual things will happen in 2009. God will give to each person according to what he has done--that day is here. 2009: The year of the Unexpected!. The unexpected shall happen to the righteous as well as to the wicked in 2009, God has set this up by his own authority, and we will all see it before it is all over.
The unexpected has been declared to come forth to the wicked. This is the year of the deadly pestilence and great worldwide calamities; where the prideful generation will be humbled. We shall see the cursed lose it all. (We had a demonic demonstration in the sprit realm, where the devil made distracting noises—trying to prevent us from hearing God’s Word). The unexpected has also been declared for the righteous: They shall understand the dream of the blessing of God, where God chose and called them to a certain place. Along the journey there has been distraction, discouragement, and lack, but God promised to bring us back to the place in 2009 and He released us tonight in that certain place, where the biggest promise from God is ours tonight-- it is all Yes and Amen in Christ—but only if you are in Christ.
From the mouth of the Lord to the righteous:
Blessed people will prosper beyond our understanding; God’s Word shall come to pass; and all these things will be given to the righteous as well; things will appear in their lives for their obedience; their hearts desire shall come forth; God has set you high above all the nations on earth; all of God’s blessing have begin to come upon you and now they accompany you; you shall as of right now, be blessed in this city, and in every city that you may enter; you shall be blessed whenever you come in and blessed when you go out; God has sent you the blessing in the land he has placed you in; from this day, everything that you put your hand to have been blessed by the Lord, our God; you have been established as God’s Holy; God has called into our land—abundant prosperity. It’s here and it’s now. Just receive it by faith in Christ; The Lord will/has opened up the heavens and the storehouse. He has sent rain on your land and to bless all the works of your hand; you will lend to many nations, but will borrow from none; The Lord will have made you the head, not the tail; if you pay attention to the commands of the Lord your God that I give you this day and carefully follow them, you will always be at the top, never at the bottom. This is a guarantee!
Power Scripture: Gen 28
GUIDED BIBLE STUDY:
THOUGHOUT THE HISTORY OF THE BIBLE; I HAVE DISCOVERED THAT EACH AND EVERY GENERATION GOD CALLS PEOPLE INTO OFFICE. THE BIBLE STATES IN EPHESIANS 4:11-13
IT WAS HE WHO GAVE SOME TO BE APOSTLES, SOME TO BE PROPHETS, SOME TO BE EVANGELISTS, AND SOME TO BE PASTORS AND TEACHERS, TO PREPARE GOD’S PEOPLE FOR WORKS OF SERVICE, SO THAT THE BODY OF CHRIST MAY BE BUILT UP UNTIL WE ALL REACH UNITY IN THE FAITH AND IN THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE SON OF GOD AND BECOME MATURE, ATTAINING TO THE WHOLE MEASURE OF THE FULLNESS OF CHRIST.
WHEN A TRUMPET SOUNDS IN A CITY, DO NOT THE PEOPLE TREMBLE? WHEN DISASTER COMES TO A CITY, HAS NOT THE LORD CAUSED IT?
SURELY THE SOVEREIGN LORD DOES NOTHING WITHOUT REVEALING HIS PLAN TO HIS SERVANTS THE PROPHETS.
GOD HAS A PLAN TONIGHT; ITS TIME TO BLOW THE TRUMPET FOR THE WICKED AND THE RIGHTEOUS IN THE YEAR OF 2009!
THE WORD OF THE LORD CAME TO ME: ‘’SON OF MAN, SPEAK TO YOUR COUNTRYMEN AND SAY TO THEM: ‘WHEN I BRING THE SWORD AGAINST A LAND, AND THE PEOPLE OF THE LAND CHOOSE ONE OF THEIR MEN AND MAKE HIM THEIR WATCHMAN, AND HE SEES THE SWORD COMING AGAINST THE LAND AND BLOWS THE TRUMPET TO WARN THE PEOPLE, THEN IF ANYONE HEARS THE TRUMPET BUT DOES NOT TAKE WARNING AND THE SWORD COMES AND TAKES HIS LIFE, HIS BLOOD WILL BE ON HIS OWN HEAD. SINCE HE HEARD THE SOUND OF THE TRUMPET BUT DID NOT TAKE WARNING, HIS BLOOD WILL BE ON HIS OWN HEAD. IF HE HAD TAKEN WARNING, HE WOULD HAVE SAVED HIMSELF. BUT IF THE WATCHMAN SEES THE SWORD COMING AND DOES NOT BLOW THE TRUMPET TO WARN THE PEOPLE AND THE SWORD COMES AND TAKES THE LIFE OF ONE OF THEM, THAT MAN WILL BE TAKEN AWAY BECAUSE OF HIS SIN, BUT I WILL HOLD THE WATCHMAN ACCOUNTABLE FOR HIS BLOOD.’
EZEKIEL 33:1-6
AND I SAW SOMETHING ELSE UNDER THE SUN: IN THE PLACE OF JUDGEMENT---WICKEDNESS WAS THERE, IN THE PLACE OF JUSTICE—WICKEDNESS WAS THERE. I THOUGHT IN MY HEART, ‘’GOD WILL BRING TO JUDGEMENT BOTH THE RIGHTEOUS AND THE WICKED, FOR THERE WILL BE A TIME FOR EVERY ACTIVITY, A TIME FOR EVERY DEED.’’
THERE IS A TIME FOR EVERYTHING, AND A SEASON FOR EVERY ACTIVITY UNDER HEAVEN: ECCLESIASTES 3:1
‘’HEAR THIS AND TESTIFY AGAINST THE HOUSE OF JACOB,’’ DECLARES THE LORD, THE LORD GOD ALMIGHTY. ‘’ON THE DAY I PUNISH ISRAEL FOR HER SINS, I WILL DESTROY THE ALTARS OF BETHEL; ( BETHEL: THE PLACE OF GOD )THE HORNS OF THE ALTAR WILL BE CUT OFF AND FALL TO THE GROUND. I WILL TEAR DOWN THE WINTER HOUSE ALONG WITH THE SUMMER HOUSE; THE HOUSES ADORNED WITH IVORY WILL BE DESTROYED AND THE MANSIONS WILL BE DEMOLISHED,’’ DECLARES THE LORD.
ISRAEL WAS A SPREADING VINE; HE BROUGHT FORTH FRUIT FOR HIMSELF. AS HIS FRUIT INCREASED, HE BUILT MORE ALTARS; AS HIS LAND PROSPERED, HE ADORNED HIS SACRED STONES. THEIR HEART IS DECEITFUL, AND NOW THEY MUST BEAR THEIR GUILT. THE LORD WILL DEMOLISH THEIR ALTARS AND DESTROY THEIR SACRED STONES.
‘’THEREFORE THIS IS WHAT I WILL DO TO YOU, ISRAEL, AND BECAUSE I WILL DO THIS TO YOU, PREPARE TO MEET YOUR GOD, O ISRAEL.’’ HE WHO FORMS THE MOUNTAINS, CREATES THE WIND, AND REVEALS HIS THOUGHTS TO MAN, HE WHO TURNS DAWN TO DARKNESS, AND TREADS THE HIGH PLACES OF THE EARTH---THE LORD GOD ALMIGHTY IS HIS NAME. AMOS 4:12-13
THE UNEXPECTED SHALL HAPPEN TO THE RIGHTEOUS AS WELL AS THE WICKED IN 2009
THE LORD WARNED ISRAEL AND JUDAH THROUGH ALL HIS PROPHETS AND SEERS: ‘’TURN FROM YOUR EVIL WAYS. OBSERVE MY COMMANDS AND DECREES, IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE ENTIRE LAW THAT I COMMANDED YOUR FATHERS TO OBEY AND THAT I DELIVERED TO YOU THROUGH MY SERVANTS THE PROPHETS.’’
2 KINGS 17:13
THE ISRAELITES PERSISTED IN ALL THE SINS OF JEROBOAM AND DID NOT TURN AWAY FROM THEM UNTIL THE LORD REMOVED THEM FROM HIS PRESENCE, AS HE HAD WARNED THROUGH ALL HIS SERVANTS THE PROPHETS.
2 KINGS 17:22
YOU DESERTED THE ROCK, WHO FATHERED YOU: YOU FORGOT THE GOD WHO GAVE YOU BIRTH. THE LORD SAW THIS AND REJECTED THEM BECAUSE HE WAS ANGERED BY HIS SONS AND DAUGHTERS. ‘’I WILL HIDE MY FACE FROM THEM,’’HE SAID, ‘’AND SEE WHAT THEIR END WILL BE; FOR THEY ARE A PERVERSE GENERATION. CHILDREN WHO ARE UNFAITHFUL.
DEUTERONOMY 32:18-19
THE LORD HAS REVEALED TO HIS SERVANT TONIGHT; THE UNEXPECTED HAS BEEN DECLARED TO COME FORWARD FOR THE WICKED!
THIS IS WHAT THE LORD HAS SPOKEN:
2009 WILL BE THE YEAR OF THE DEADLY PESTILENCE; DESTRUCTIVE INFECTIONS SWIFTLY SPREADING DISEASE; MANY WILL LOSE THEIR LIVES ACCORDING TO THE SPOKEN WORD OF THE LORD; IT SHALL COME QUICKLY IN 2009 THE YEAR THAT THE LORD HAS CALLED THIS INTO BEING:
THIS IS WHAT THE LORD HAS SPOKEN:
2009 THE YEAR OF GREAT WORLDWIDE CALAMITIES:
UNEXPECTED CALAMITIES:
THIS IS WHAT THE LORD SAYS:
2009 THE YEAR THAT THE PRIDEFUL GENERATION WILL BE HUMBLED; AND THEY SHALL BE HUMBLED:
THIS IS WHAT THE LORD SAYS:
2009 THE YEAR THAT WE SHALL SEE THE CURSED LOSE IT ALL; SOME EVEN THEIR VERY LIVES ( UNEXPECTED DEATH ) THE GRAVE IS CALLING AND AWAITING FOR THEIR ARRIVAL: BECAUSE YOU CHOSE NOT TO FOLLOW GODS COMMANDS AND DECREES ALL THESE CURSES WLL/ HAVE COME UPON YOU IN 2009 AND WILL OVERTAKE YOU BECAUSE YOU REJECTED HIM; YOU WILL BE CURSED IN THE CITY AND CURSED IN THE COUNTRY; YOU SHALL BE CURSED COMING IN AND CURSED GOING OUT. THE LORD HAS SENT THE CURSE UPON THE WICKED IN 2009.
THIS COMES DIRECTLY FROM THE MOUTH OF GOD TO THE WICKED!
2009 THE YEAR THAT THE LORD HAS DECLARED TO ALL WHO HAS REJECTED HIM; THIS IS WHAT THE LORD SAYS:
IF YOU HAD RESPONDED TO MY REBUKE, I WOULD HAVE POURED OUT MY HEART TO YOU AND MADE MY THOUGHTS KNOWN TO YOU. BUT SINCE YOU REJECTED ME WHEN I CALLED AND NO ONE GAVE HEED WHEN I STRECHED OUT MY HAND, SINCE YOU IGNORED ALL MY ADVICE AND WOULD NOT ACCEPT MY REBUKE, IN 2009 I WILL IN TURN WILL LAUGH AT YOUR DISASTER; I WILL MOCK WHEN CALAMITY OVERTAKES YOU---WHEN CALAMITY OVERTAKES YOU LIKE A STORM, WHEN IN 2009 DISASTER SWEEPS OVER YOU LIKE A WHIRLWIND, WHEN DISTRESS AND TROUBLE OVERWHELM YOU IN 2009. ‘’THEN THEY WILL CALL TO ME BUT I WILL NOT ANSWER THEM IN 2009; THEY WILL LOOK FOR ME BUT WILL NOT FIND ME. SINCE THEY HATED KNOWLEDGE AND DID NOT CHOOSE TO FEAR THE LORD, SINCE THEY WOULD NOT ACCEPT MY ADVICE AND SPURNED MY REBUKE, THEY WILL EAT THE FRUIT OF THEIR WAYS AND BE FILLED WITH THE FRUIT OF THEIR SCHEMES.
TONIGHT THE UNEXPECTED HAS BEEN DECLARED BY GOD TO COME FORWARD FOR THE RIGHTEOUS
THIS IS WHAT THE MOUTH OF THE LORD HAS SPOKEN:
2009 THE YEAR THAT WE SHALL SEE THE BLESSED PROSPER BEYOND OUR UNDERSTANDING! THIS SHALL COME INTO BEING IN 2009 SAYS THE LORD
THIS IS WHAT THE LORD SAYS:
2009 THE YEAR THAT GOD’S WORD SHALL COME TO PASS; AND ALL THESE THINGS WILL BE GIVEN TO YOU AS WELL; THINGS WILL APPEAR IN YOUR LIVES THAT THE LORD WILL SEND TO BLESS YOU FOR YOUR OBEDIENCE; YOUR HEARTS DESIRE SHALL COME FROM THE LORD IN 2009
2009 WE SHALL UNDERSTAND THE DREAM OF THE BLESSING OF GOD
JACOB LEFT BEERSHEBA AND SET OUT FOR HARAN. WHEN HE REACHED A CERTAIN PLACE, HE STOPPED FOR THE NIGHT BECAUSE THE SUN HAD SET. TAKING ONE OF THE STONES THERE, HE PUT IT UNDER HIS HEAD AND LAY DOWN TO SLEEP. HE HAD A DREAM IN WHICH HE SAW A STAIRWAY RESTING ON THE EARTH, WITH ITS TOP REACHING TO HEAVEN, AND THE ANGELS OF GOD WERE ASCENDING AND DESCENDING ON IT. THERE ABOVE IT STOOD THE LORD, AND HE SAID: ‘’I AM THE LORD, THE GOD OF YOUR FATHER ABRAHAM AND THE GOD OF ISAAC. I WILL GIVE YOU AND YOUR DESCENDANTS THE LAND ON WHICH YOU ARE LYING. YOUR DESCENDANTS WILL BE LIKE THE DUST OF THE EARTH, AND YOU WILL SPREAD OUT TO THE WEST AND TO THE EAST, TO THE NORTH AND TO THE SOUTH. ALL PEOPLES ON EARTH WILL BE BLESSED THROUGH YOU AND YOUR OFFSPRING. I AM WITH YOU AND WILL WATCH OVER YOU WHEREVER YOU GO, ( REMEMBER JACOB WAS THE BLESSING; SO GOD IS SAYING I WILL WATCH OVER THE BLESSING WHEREVER THE BLESSING GOES; GOD SHALL ALWAYS BE WHERE THE BLESSING GOES ) AND I WILL BRING YOU BACK TO THIS LAND. ( GOD IS BRING THE BLESSING BACK INTO THE LAND IN 2009 ) I WILL NOT LEAVE YOU UNTIL I HAVE DONE WHAT I HAVE PROMISED YOU.’’ WHEN JACOB AWOKE FROM HIS SLEEP, HE THOUGHT, ‘’SURELY THE LORD IS IN THIS PLACE, AND I WAS NOT AWARE OF IT.’’ HE WAS AFRAID AND SAID, ‘’HOW AWESOME IS THIS PLACE! THIS IS NONE OTHER THAN THE HOUSE OF GOD: THIS IS THE GATE OF HEAVEN.’’ EARLY THE NEXT MORNING JACOB TOOK THE STONE HE HAD PLACED UNDER HIS HEAD AND SET IT UP AS A PILLAR AND POURED OIL ON TOP OF IT. HE CALLED THAT PLACE BETHEL, THOUGH THE CITY USED TO BE CALLED LUZ. THEN JACOB MADE A VOW, SAYING, ‘’IF GOD WILL BE WITH ME AND WILL WATCH OVER ME ON THIS JOURNEY I AM TAKING AND WILL GIVE ME FOOD TO EAT AND CLOTHES TO WEAR SO THAT I RETURN SAFELY TO MY FATHER’S HOUSE, THEN THE LORD WILL BE MY GOD AND THIS STONE THAT I HAVE SET UP AS A PILLAR WILL BE GOD’S HOUSE, AND OF ALL THAT YOU GIVE ME I WILL GIVE A TENTH.’’
GENESIS 28:10-22
THIS IS WHAT THE LORD SAYS:
2009 IF YOU PERSEVERED THOUGH THE TRIALS OF LIFE AND TRULY OBEYED THE LORD; GOD HAS A WORD JUST FOR YOU TONIGHT: THE BIBLE STATES IN 2 CORINTHIANS 5:17 THEREFORE, IF ANYONE IS IN CHRIST, HE IS A NEW CREATION; THE OLD HAS GONE, THE NEW HAS COME IN 2009---ALL THIS IS FROM GOD JUST FOR YOU.
THIS IS WHAT THE LORD IS SAYING TONIGHT:
2009 JAN.1, BUT AS SURELY AS GOD IS FAITHFUL, OUR MESSAGE TO YOU IS NOT BLESSINGS FOR YOUR OBEDIENCE IN 2009 SPOKEN BY GOD!
‘’YES’’ AND ‘’NO.’’ FOR THE SON OF GOD, JESUS CHRIST, WHO WAS PREACHED AMONG YOU BY ME AND SILAS AND TIMOTHY, WAS NOT ‘’YES’’ AND ‘’NO,’’ BUT IN HIM IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN ‘’YES.’’ FOR NO MATTER HOW MANY PROMISES GOD HAS MADE, THEY ARE ‘’YES’’ IN CHRIST. AND SO THROUGH HIM THE ‘’AMEN’’ IS SPOKEN BY US TO THE GLORY OF GOD. NOW IT IS GOD WHO MAKES US AND YOU STANDFIRM IN CHRIST. HE ANOINTED US SET HIS SEAL OF OWERSHIP ON US, AND PUT HIS SPIRIT IN OUR HEARTS AS A DEPOSIT, GUARANTEEING WHAT IS TO COME.
YOU MAY BE ASKING WHAT IS THE GUARANTEE? THE GUARANTEE IS THE WRITTEN WORD OF GOD! LETS LOOK INTO YOUR PROMISE / GUARANTEE FOR 2009
CHURCH IF YOU HAVE FULLY OBEYED THE LORD YOUR GOD LAST SEASON; AND YOU CAREFULLY FOLLOWED ALL HIS COMMANDS THAT HE GAVE TO US TO FOLLOW; THIS DAY JAN.1, 2009 GOD HAS SET YOU HIGH ABOVE ALL THE NATIONS ON EARTH. ALL OF GOD’S BLESSING HAVE BEGIN TO COME UPON YOU AND NOW THEY ACCOMPANY YOU. YOU SHALL AS OF RIGHT NOW; BE BLESSED IN THIS CITY, AND IN EVERY CITY THAT YOU MAY ENTER; YOU SHALL BE BLESSED WHENEVER YOU COME IN AND BLESSED WHEN YOU GO OUT. GOD HAS SENT YOU THE BLESSING IN THE LAND HE HAS PLACE YOU IN, FROM THIS DAY; EVERYTHING THAT YOU PUT YOUR HAND TO HAVE BEEN BLESSED BY THE LORD OUR GOD; YOU HAVE BEEN ESTABLISHED AS GOD’S HOLY PEOPLE JUST AS HE PROMISED YOU. TONIGHT JAN. 1, 2009 GOD HAS CALLED INTO OUR LAND ABUNDANT PROSPERITY; IT’S HERE IT’S NOW; JUST RECEIVE IT BY FAITH IN CHRIST: THE TRUMPET HAS BEEN BLOWN FOR THE RIGHTEOUS THAT HAS OBEYED GOD’S WORD.
REVEALED FROM DEUTERONOMY 28:1
THE LORD WILL/ ( HAVE TO THE OBEDIENT ) IN 2009 OPEN THE HEAVENS, THE STOREHOUSE OF HIS BOUNTY, TO SEND RAIN ON YOUR LAND IN SEASON ( IT’S A NEW SEASON CALLED BY THE LORD ) AND TO BLESS ALL THE WORKS OF YOUR HANDS. YOU WILL IN 2009 LEND TO MANY NATIONS BUT WILL BORROW FROM NONE. THE LORD WILL/HAVE MADE YOU THE HEAD, NOT THE TAIL. IF YOU PAY ATTENTION TO THE COMMANDS OF THE LORD YOUR GOD THAT I GIVE YOU THIS DAY AND CAREFULLY FOLLOW THEM, YOU WILL ALWAYS BE AT THE TOP, NEVER AT THE BOTTOM.
DEUTERONOMY 28:12-14 ( THIS IS A GUARANTEE )
HOWEVER, ( TO THE DISOBEDIENT ) IF YOU DID NOT OBEY THE LORD GOD LAST SEASON; ALL THE LORD CURSES HAVE COME UPON YOU IN 2009 AND THEY WILL OVERTAKE YOU; THAT’S A GUARANTEE; YOU ARE CURSED IN THE CITY AND SHALL BE CURSED GOING IN AND SHALL BE CURSED COMING OUT; THE LORD HAS ALREADY SENT ON YOU THE CURSE; CONFUSION AND HE SHALL REBUKE EVERYTHING YOU PUT YOUR HAND TO UNTIL YOU ARE DESTROYED FROM THE LAND. THE LORD WILL PLAGUE YOU WITH DISEASES UNTIL HE HAS DESTROYED YOU FROM THE LAND YOU ARE ENTERING TO POSSESS. THE LORD HAVE STRUCK YOU WITH WASTING DISEASE,
REVEALED FROM DEUTERONOMY 28:15 ( THIS IS A GUARANTEE )
NOW ALL HAS BEEN HEARD; HERE IS THE CONCLUSION OF THE MATTER: FEAR GOD AND KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS, FOR THIS IS THE WHOLE DUTY OF MAN. FOR GOD WILL BRING EVERY DEED INTO JUDGEMENT, INCLUDING EVERY HIDDEN THING, WHETHER IT IS GOOD OR EVIL.
‘’FOR THE LIPS OF A PRIEST OUGHT TO PERSERVE KNOWLEDGE, AND FROM HIS MOUTH MEN SHOULD SEEK INSTRUCTION---BECAUSE HE IS THE MESSENGER OF THE LORD ALMIGHTY.
