The Bible Series: Drawing Close To God: Genesis 1

When God Speaks Into Your Life 

Genesis 1:1 New King James Version (NKJV)

The History of Creation

1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

New King James Version (NKJV)

This year, 2019 is coming into a CLOSE ! God has dealt with me that as we close this year He wants us to focus on HIM and begin with Him… Sometimes when we look at beginnings we assume that it has to be with money, cars, clothes, and fame.. but the BIBLE says in The Message,

Proverbs 20:21 The Message (MSG)

The Very Steps We Take

21 A bonanza at the beginning
    is no guarantee of blessing at the end.

So you may not be going into 2020 with a BMW or having your face in New York Times Square but keep going with GOD. Because even David and Joseph  had to start somewhere…. And DAVID was in waiting for decades.  

***

Genesis 1:1 tells us  GOD created the heavens and the earth. As we draw close to GOD we see that we must KNOW who He is (Proverbs 9:10). As you begin to develop a relationship with God you have to acknowledge and reverence Him so that you may get prayer and life results.

But How Does This Draw Me Close To Him

Well lets look at these seven points:

  • Point 1: When God speaks into your life according to Genesis 1:2, sometimes its when we are formless and empty. Sometimes it’s when there is darkness from a bad relationship or at a time where WE need a supernatural deliverance. The Bible says in Mark,

Mark 2:17 English Standard Version (ESV)

17 And when Jesus heard it, he said to them, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. I came not to call the righteous, but sinners.”

And He says in Matthew,

Matthew 21:31 English Standard Version (ESV)

31 Which of the two did the will of his father?” They said, “The first.” Jesus said to them, “Truly, I say to you, the tax collectors and the prostitutes go into the kingdom of God before you.

English Standard Version (ESV)

  • Point 2: Because of this we know that because HE came to you while you were yet in sin, in darkness… God is showing that HE sees GOOD in you according to Genesis 1:3-5.

A lot of times when it comes to ministry, a relationship with God, and big time names we think that those people are the only ones who can talk to God… but there are some anonymous, nameless, and unknown hero’s in the BIBLE. There are even some books in The Bible that tells us that the Author is Unknown (See the NLT STUDY BIBLE). So we have to understand that our relationship with GOD and if we are going to inherit the Kingdom of God is based on US . Faith without works is dead.

  • Point 3: Genesis 1:10 shows us that man cannot dictate WHO or WHEN God calls. The Bible says in Proverbs 8,

Proverbs 8:17 English Standard Version (ESV)

17 I love those who love me,
    and those who seek me diligently find me.

…. This shows me that whoever LOVES God will receive what He has for them… but you have to focus on HIM and rely on HIM as he takes you through the process of being transformed and renewed in God.

  • Point 4 : Genesis 1:6-11 NLT discusses SPACE. When you begin to draw closer to GOD he will begin to create SPACE. In your life, he will purge out all those who are wicked and evil. He is going to teach you BOUNDARIES and HEALTHY CHRIST LIKE GOALS as you begin to move forward in this life. We are living in the last days … God does not want you living with the spirit of fear but in THE FEAR OF GOD (PROVEBRS 9:10).
  • Point 5:Genesis 1:7 When GOD is forming and making you into who HE has called you to be He is going to speak over you prophetically and sing over you. WHAT GOD has spoken over you MUST come to pass…it has to. It MUST. And whether they receive it or not they will know that a prophet has been among them.

Ezekiel 2:5 New Living Translation (NLT)

5 And whether they listen or refuse to listen—for remember, they are rebels—at least they will know they have had a prophet among them.

New Living Translation (NLT)

  • Point 6: Genesis 1:9-12 says “the land produced vegetation.”  When God produces something it is formed for a purpose. As you draw close to God, He is going to begin to form you into your purpose. Whether it is to be a TEACHER to be a intercessor for children… Whether it is to be a Gym Teacher to be a GOD sent intercessor for children against bullying. Or whether it is to be a  Counselor to lead children to CHRIST and to pray… Whatever your purpose is on this earth… when YOU draw close to God his purpose in you MUST be fulfilled and revealed.
  • Point 7: Throughout Genesis 1 one of the secrets or mysteries is that we have to learn how to WAIT. Not to long ago God told me, “It is better to wait than for it not to happen at all.”  During the process and with God you have to wait and allow God to finish His GOOD work in YOU, He is going to perfect that which concerns you according to The WORD OF GOD.

Psalm 138:8 King James Version (KJV)

8 The Lord will perfect that which concerneth me: thy mercy, O Lord, endureth for ever: forsake not the works of thine own hands.

King James Version (KJV)

***

So today as the LORD moves in your life and you begin to move on into the next year… Be focused on GOD and be determined to read the entire BIBLE, the back of the BIBLE has yearly BIBLE study plans… Genesis 1 will draw you closer to GOD and push you into the secret place so that GOD will form your purpose.

Learning How To Eat Healthy!

Daniel 1:12-14 New International Version (NIV)

12 “Please test your servants for ten days: Give us nothing but vegetables to eat and water to drink. 13 Then compare our appearance with that of the young men who eat the royal food, and treat your servants in accordance with what you see.” 14 So he agreed to this and tested them for ten days.New International Version (NIV)

To Be Honest

I love pumpkin pie ! I love candy ! I love burgers ! I really do! I even like to drink power aide, but lately I have been dealing with this issue of McDonald’s.

While I was eating I felt the after effect of the McDonalds and a few days later I believe that the Holy Spirit was convicting me that I can not continue to eat like this.

The Bible says ,

Romans 12:1 New International Version (NIV)

A Living Sacrifice

12 Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship.New International Version (NIV)

When we eat bad things it affects us and can even hinder our worship to God ! You get lazy and sluggish. To Lazy to run around the church because of obesity. God does not want you walking around here with diabetes, but if you continue to eat fast food its going to happen !

Me Personally

I know that God has told me I need to get my eating right and stop eating so much chips ! But I also know that The Bible says Little by Little, so I have decided more water intake less candy. More water no Doritos. More Water less sprite. Raisins over cheap candy.

***

Now do not get me wrong, you can enjoy food ! But its not good to be a glutton ! You lose blessings over meals ! Look at Jacob and Esau… So Today put a knife to your throat.

Proverbs 23:1-2 New International Version (NIV)

Saying 7

23 When you sit to dine with a ruler,
    note well what[a] is before you,
2 and put a knife to your throat
    if you are given to gluttony.

If you struggle with emotional eating, pray about it ! Because God will see you through it !

How Does This Affect Your Beauty

Well, I don’t know about you but if I drink to much pop my skin breaks out. Or if I eat to much salt my legs swell, so ya girl don’t be feeling to cute around those times. But once I get back right of eating healthy my skin clears up and my legs go back down to normal.

Ahhh,

I remember those days where I used eat like four Doritos Locos Tacos from Taco Bell, but now I see I sick I used to feel eating that food.

When I eat healthy and eat lemons, raisins, and drink water I feel so much better! Its like a heavenly natural remedy!

You Should Try It

Why don’t you take a break from eating so much Doritos and try some celery ! It will change your mood and make you feel better, and make sure you add P.R.A.Y.E.R in the midst . Amen? Amen.

God Bless You Guys ,

“You Shall Drink From The Brook”

In life we go through hard seasons where it feels like God has completely abandoned us. It feels like God is nowhere to be found. In The Bible Numbers 23:19 tells us that God is a not a man that He should lie nor a son of man that He SHOULD repent !

So whatever you are going through today know that God is with you.

All Things Work Together

Proverbs 18:24 New International Version (NIV)

24 One who has unreliable friends soon comes to ruin,
    but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.

One Sunday

There was a sunday I was sitting at church and I heard the Apostle say something like “If something doesn’t go my way I am not worried because all things work together”… He was referencing Romans 8:28

and I have held onto that for the entire 2019 year.

During 2019 for me personally I have lost ALOT OF female friendships (Proverbs 31:1-7). I know that God has shown me somethings about my destiny and future but I was just wondering why… did it have to hurt so much.

And I am reminded of this photo.

I am not Jesus, but I am His disciple.

A lot of time when we look at discipleship you think of glitz and glam… but no. Its more than that. Discipleship is enduring being homeless when you used to have a salary job and a luxury apartment 20 minutes away from the beach.. because you’re in the wilderness.

Discipleship is losing your phone in the Antelope valley desert with no money or anyway to call home, so that God can purge you..

Discipleship is the many nights you cry yourself to sleep asking God… why… why me… and literally begging him to chose someone else.

And discipleship is holding onto a promise, and living with the pain of people who said they were your friends kick you while you are down… That’s what it takes to be chosen by God.

See There Is A Day Coming

Where we are going to realize that your Instagram likes and follows does not mean you have authority in heaven. There is a day coming where Instagram will be shut down and all of that money people wasted to buy followers will go to waste…. because Instagram DOES NOT mean anointed.

God is going to restore what it means to be Authentic.

I Really Like Billy Graham

This Is why… Billy Graham came in a time where you REALLY had to be anointed to be used by God. He came during a time where You HAD to have the heavens moving on your behalf to preach the way that HE DID !

I like Dr.Martin Luther King Jr.

Because His prophecy was fulfilled ! We are living his prophecy today. Not only that, He literally HAD to have GOD on his side to move in the ERA that He did.

In Reality

We don’t see these mantles anymore. See the problem is everyone is trying to make a name for themselves like Saul, but no one is trying to make a name for GOD !

When David killed Goliath He said,

1 Samuel 17:45 King James Version (KJV)

45 Then said David to the Philistine, Thou comest to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield: but I come to thee in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom thou hast defied.

David did not come to goliath in flesh… but with that backing and anointing of the HOLY SPIRIT !

The Apostles Are Coming

A lot of times we talk about miracles and that’s what they want to see… but they fail to realize that it came through the Apostles and the Prophets.

I look at the state of the church with Kanye West and I literally am shocked at how deceived the church is involving this man. He is tormented by Legion. Is bound by the spirit of Lucifer.

Yes he made a album but the BIBLE says EVERY KNEE SHALL BOW so Kanye West doesn’t have a choice but He is still going to hell.

Philippians 2:10 King James Version (KJV)

10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;

What Is To Come

There is a very heavy and sad persecution coming with the real apostles. I am not talking about YouTube apostles.. I am talking about REAL ORDAINED ANOINTED apostles. Now they are some people who claim to be Apostles and are not according to Revelation 1-3.

However, with that being said if you are in ministry take this time to love on your family and cultivate a atmosphere of peace in your household… Because you need a balance. Ministry is NOT 24/7. The Bible tells us that there was a time that Jesus stopped His public ministry.

John 11:54 New Living Translation (NLT)

54 As a result, Jesus stopped his public ministry among the people and left Jerusalem. He went to a place near the wilderness, to the village of Ephraim, and stayed there with his disciples.

***

We have to begin to move into seasons of learning how to love our households so that we have peace (Isaiah 9:6-7).

We as Christians have to learn that balance does not mean listening to blasphemous music or smoking, or going to the club…

BALANCE means when I come home at a certain time my phone is off. I want to watch the game with my family. I’m not your God.

BALANCE is learning how to say no to people who KEEP asking for money with no intentions on getting a job. Learning how to say NO to people who disrupt your peace.

Even if its not in ministry, you could just be at work. There is a persecution coming to us. You need to begin to cultivate peace in your life. Start weeding out toxic people. Who wants to come home after working all day to foolishness.

With that being said,

God You are the Prince of Peace according to Isaiah 9:6-7 .God I pray that we begin to understand the power of peace. That we begin to balance and accept that there is only one God. There is no other God. Help us to let go of abusive and toxic relationships and put us in a position of peace. AMEN!

Have a Blessed Day.

Love,

Diamond ❤
