Dates With Jesus: The Passion Of The Christ

Isaiah 53:5 New King James Version (NKJV)

But He was wounded[a] for our transgressions,
He was [b]bruised for our iniquities;
The chastisement for our peace was upon Him,
And by His stripes[c] we are healed.

***

The Bible says… that many are called but few are chosen (Matthew 22:14)… So this evening I am going to talk to the chosen. On this Dates With Jesus I had to be reminded what is the purpose of preaching the gospel. What was my foundation for? What I am striving for.. what is the over all goal of the gospel. In the movie of the Passion of the Christ.. You see that graphic and intolerable pain that our Savior Jesus Christ had to go through… and for you and me.

***

Honestly… it was never my desire to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ.. I never wanted to… never cared… honestly I did not even want to be a Christian. But I am CHOSEN … But anyways..

In ministry we encounter “like Jesus” moments, seasons, and even years… Where people see you beaten, bruised, and broken and they still spit on you… They still gossip about you.. They still treat you like a dog.. They still make fun of you… and the crazy thing is… they are still jealous.. Which honestly I do not understand because trust me ministry is very difficult. but anyways.

Is these like Jesus moments, I have learned to crawl to Jesus.. I have learned to get on my face. This Dates With Jesus, reminded me that I can go to JESUS because He understands my pain (Hebrews 4:15).

I dont vent to people.. because well… people will always fail you. I have learned the power of the secret place…

Well What Are You Doing This For?

Because … well I love HIM… I have been through so much abuse and yet He chases me down like Gomer. I dont deserve God… but he has died for me.

Heed this warning about ministry…

take your time to draw close in God now or you’ll lose him later.

Evening Prayer: Healing

Dear Lord Heavenly Father ,

I pray your word according to (Matthew 6). I cast down every demonic thought of witchcraft by the blood of JESUS (James 2:19) only through YOU do we have power. No weapon formed against me shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17) and I decree the blessings of Abraham over my life. In Jesus Name I pray.. Thank God Amen.

The Lord had said to Abram, ‘Leave your country and the people of your father’s family. Go to the land that I will show you. I will cause your descendants to become a great nation . I will bless you. Everyone will know your name. You will bring my blessing to other people. I will bless those people who bless you. But I will curse anyone who insults you. Through you, I will bless all the families of people on the earth.’ Abram did what the Lord had told him. He left Haran. Abram was 75 years old when he left Haran. Lot went with him.
Genesis 12:1‭-‬4 EASY

Amen .

Mid Day Devotion : Gracious Favor

When I think of Hosea & Gomer and the supernatural love he showed Gomer… I see that God is preparing HIS church for a supernatural outpouring of love. God makes no mistakes. Although this generation is coupled with abuse God has seen and is ready to heal.. but HE needs those who are willing. The truth of the matter we all are like Gomer. So if it’s your husband or wife (Isaiah 55:8-9) remember the love that God showed Gomer through the prophet Hosea and trust God through the pain (Proverbs 3:5-6).

Should Christian’s Be Doing Reality TV shows ?

The Truth

I dont like Oprah and this is why.

It seems that if someone shows up preaching quite another Jesus than we preached—different spirit, different message—you put up with him quite nicely. But if you put up with these big-shot “apostles,” why can’t you put up with simple me? I’m as good as they are. It’s true that I don’t have their voice, haven’t mastered that smooth eloquence that impresses you so much. But when I do open my mouth, I at least know what I’m talking about. We haven’t kept anything back. We let you in on everything. I wonder, did I make a bad mistake in proclaiming God’s Message to you without asking for something in return, serving you free of charge so that you wouldn’t be inconvenienced by me? It turns out that the other churches paid my way so that you could have a free ride. Not once during the time I lived among you did anyone have to lift a finger to help me out. My needs were always supplied by the believers from Macedonia province. I was careful never to be a burden to you, and I never will be, you can count on it. With Christ as my witness, it’s a point of honor with me, and I’m not going to keep it quiet just to protect you from what the neighbors will think. It’s not that I don’t love you; God knows I do. I’m just trying to keep things open and honest between us. And I’m not changing my position on this. I’d die before taking your money. I’m giving nobody grounds for lumping me in with those money-grubbing “preachers,” vaunting themselves as something special. They’re a sorry bunch—pseudo-apostles, lying preachers, crooked workers—posing as Christ’s agents but sham to the core. And no wonder! Satan does it all the time, dressing up as a beautiful angel of light. So it shouldn’t surprise us when his servants masquerade as servants of God. But they’re not getting by with anything. They’ll pay for it in the end.

The Authentic Is Coming

When you look at ministry there is something that is just not present in this day and hour … and that is the annoiting to be “authentic”.

When you are truly chosen by God , you dont have to buy instagram followers and facebook likes to be chosen… because GOD opens the door that no man can close (Revelation 3).

This is not a conspiracy. Despite what people think Oprah is not chosen by God. That is a trap. I see her soon doing more television shows about the church and christian love that are messy and full of drama . What does the Bible say?

Delightfully loved friends, don’t trust every spirit, but carefully examine what they say to determine if they are of God, because many false prophets have mingled into the world. Here’s the test for those with the genuine Spirit of God: they will confess Jesus as the Christ who has come in the flesh. Everyone who does not acknowledge that Jesus is from God has the spirit of antichrist, which you heard was coming and is already active in the world. Little children, you can be certain that you belong to God and have conquered them, for the One who is living in you is far greater than the one who is in the world. They belong to this world and they articulate the spirit of this world, and the world listens to them.
1 John 4:1‭-‬5 TPT
https://bible.com/bible/1849/1jn.4.1-5.TPT

The root of this is Christian’s do not know who they are. We have a very toxic spirit of low self-esteem … We dont talk about this often so it’s just sitting there dormant waiting for the right time to be exposed. Sometimes it takes a painful experience to learn a lesson from God.

But as for Oprah. In the time to come she may think that what she is about to do will prosper but GOD has the final say.
