The word from the Holy Spirit today is the myriad amount of suppositions which prevent a human being from buying into Jesus. The biggest misconception is believing Jesus is a historical figure and can’t help me in my life today.

What causes a believer with suppositions about Jesus to become a Christ follower?

The doubt is removed by an encounter with the Living Christ. This is the only way a human being can be convinced Jesus is alive and speaks the truth.

Jesus is not hiding from people. He wants a personal and symbolic relationship with a believer. He will prove that every spiritual principle in the Bible is the truth and can be experienced by anyone seeking Him. 

The doubt will be replaced by unyielding faith in the promises of the Living Christ.

Jesus is a way of life not a religion. He wants an unequivocal relationship with a believer. He develops this rapport by speaking to you, giving you visions and dreams, and demonstrating His greatness and glory. 

You will know without a shadow of a doubt that Jesus has power and dominion over the heavens and earth and nothing is impossible for Him. 

Come to Jesus by faith and submit to the authority of the Holy Spirit. He is the life of Jesus sealed in a believer. 

The Holy Spirit validates the authenticity of Jesus and brings His reality into every moment of your life.

Meet the Living Christ and your life will never be the same!

The Holy Spirit spoke to me this morning about how many people (both believers and non believers) have an attitude of impartiality about Jesus. They do not have strong views one way or the other about Jesus. He is just not an integral part of their life.

Many people believe in God but think of Jesus as a historical figure. He has no reality in their present life. 

They are indecisive about making a commitment from the heart to Jesus. The Holy Spirit says they are like a fallow, uncultivated field.

The truths of knowing how to meet the Living Christ come from the encounter between Jesus and Nicodemus. 

Nicodemus saw the powerful signs of Jesus and acknowledged God was with Him. 

Jesus responded unless you are  “born again” it is impossible to see the kingdom of God. Nicodemus was confused about this term and could not relate it to the reality of his world.

Jesus clarified that a human being must be born of water and the Spirit. The new identity of a believer comes from the renewing power of the water and the baptism of the Holy Spirit. You literally become a new creature in Christ and the Holy Spirit begins transforming you into the character of God.

Jesus goes on to explain that your natural life at birth can never see God and you must be sealed with the Holy Spirit who is the Living Christ. He is the only way you can be linked to the reality of Jesus.

Jesus desires to have a personal and symbolic relationship with a believer. He wants to speak to you and fill you with His spiritual attributes of love, strength, wisdom, joy and protection. Jesus desires to give you more than you ask or think. 

Come to Jesus and your life will never be the same!

I am the way, the life and the truth!

God spoke to me last night about the dangers of avarice which is greed for the things of the world.

Greed is a compulsive emotion to acquire the possessions of the world. Greed takes your focus off God and on satisfying self.

Greed can never be satisfied; you will always want more.

The individual operating with greed does not trust God. He does not believe in the promises of Jesus such as “My God will supply your every need according to the riches of His glory in Christ”.

Greed comes from Satan. He wants to distract you from God and his ultimate purpose is to steal, kill, and destroy believers.

Greed will eventually destroy your relationships and bring many griefs. 

The secret to avoiding greed or making impulsive decisions is to submit to the authority of the Holy Spirit. He is the life of Christ and dwells inside all believers. He knows you better than you know yourself. He is omniscient and sees every detail of your future. He desires to counsel and guide your spending patterns.

The efficacy of Christ comes to those who pray for their needs and desires but do not take action until they hear from God. 

The Holy Spirit will tell you what to buy in His perfect timing. He will even surprise you by identifying things you will need that have never crossed your mind.

This spiritual discipline is based on walking by faith and trusting Jesus implicitly for your every need. There is no reason to worry or make hasty decisions because God desires to bless you. 

Jesus is in control and you can concentrate on prayer, reading the Bible, and listening for His voice.

Many believers can’t grasp that Jesus wants to give you more than you ask or think. Wait on God by faith and He will reward you abundantly.

The Holy Spirit spoke to me about those who foolishly backpedal from Jesus and believe goodness comes by an individual’s effort. 

All human beings were created in the image of God but you can never take credit for the goodness in your life. Whether you are a believer or not the goodness in your life is measured by Jesus. He can turn the faucet on or off. 

You can falsely claim your personal efforts create goodness but Jesus controls your destiny. He can bless or curse. Jesus has power and dominion over the heavens and earth. Nothing is impossible for Him. 

Jesus defines the standards of justice. They have nothing to do with the world.

Jesus looks at your heart condition. He knows who will become receptive to Him.

Jesus is omniscient and sees every detail of your future.

Jesus will forgive all your sin but He is looking for a contrite heart.

Jesus is a God of unconditional love. However, He will not tolerate the worship of false gods or idols. 

Jesus knows who is a lost cause and will not strive with a human being in continual rebellion against God.

Jesus is not looking for someone to keep laws or do works. And, He abhors religion. He is not looking for people who believe they are morally healthy; He is looking for sinners who need a Savior.

Jesus simply wants you to come to Him. He desires to have a personal and symbiotic relationship with a believer. He wants you to walk by faith and seek His will for your life.

Apart from Me you can do nothing!

Jesus said if you put the fine wine in old wineskins they will split and all the wine will be lost. You must put the fine wine in new wineskins and then the wine will be preserved.

In this parable, the old wineskins are your natural life at birth. The new wineskins represent a born again believer sealed with the Holy Spirit.

The fine wine will spill out of the non believer because he is an unclean vessel. The new wine will transform the born again believer into the character of Jesus. He will be a powerful light for Jesus.

The significance of this parable is the waste of living for self and seeing the goodness of God seep out of your body and flow into ruins.

The core of this teaching comes from James, Chapter three and deals with the hereditary nature of a human being. All mankind is born with an inner nature to defy God and live for self. The born again believer has the hereditary nature of Jesus and desires to live for Him.

If you are a Christ follower you cannot coexist with worldly thinking and the principles of Jesus. Satan is a liar and a deceiver. He entices believers to do things leading to destruction and death. 

The wisdom of Jesus is deprived by those who are bitter with envy for what they lack and are seeking self satisfaction.

Boasting is a characteristic of living for self and is a lie against the values of Jesus. The source of boasting is earthly and demonic. 

The Cross creates a new identity and the humility of Jesus. The born again believer has no need to boast because he is confident in the promises of the Jesus.

Boasting claims an individual can become successful through his own efforts and without the efficacy of God. 

The self seeking individual operates with evil motives and lives under a cloud of confusion. 

The Holy Spirit creates a fountain of wisdom in a believer. This wisdom comes by prayer, reading the Bible, and listening for the voice of God. 

Walking with Jesus requires a believer to submit to the authority of the Holy Spirit. He will always lead a believer in the pathway of Jesus and can be trusted implicitly. He speaks for Jesus.

The wisdom of Jesus is pure, peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, and full of mercy and good works. This wisdom is without partiality or hypocrisy. 

The righteousness of God comes by faith and transforms believers into peacemakers. They make decisions leading to peace and attempt to eliminate conflict and disputes with others.

This is about bringing the reality of Jesus into your life and understanding the evil tactics of the spirit of religion 

The spirit of religion is a demon working for Satan. He is disguised as worker for God. The goal of the spirit of religion is to keep believers from knowing the Living Christ.

The spirit of religion convinces you to do the works of religion and keep laws. He does not want you to have anything to do with the Holy Spirit or attempt to know the Living Christ. 

The spirit of religion does not want a believer to surrender to Jesus. He wants you to live in the non threatening comfort of religion.

The spirit of religion lies to believers and depicts Jesus as a historical figure who cannot be personally reached by a human being. He does not want you to hear the voice of God and asserts this is a fantasy of fanatical believers. 

The spirit of religion whitewashes scripture to hide the Living Christ and to attract those with liberal views and false beliefs about Jesus.

The spirit of religion exhorts believers to devote their talents, money and energy into doing religious works. He promotes religion as a safe haven for the people of God.

The spirit of religion deceives believers with the lie that Satan is not a reality or a danger if you belong to Jesus.

The spirit of religion does not want you pray or make intercession for those in bondage to sin. The Cross will break the power of Satan and set people free.

Jesus is not a historical figure; He is alive and wants a personal and symbiotic relationship with a believer. He desires to speak to you and be present in every detail of your life.

Come to Jesus by faith and make a commitment to live for Him above all else. He is not looking for works or keeping laws. 

Jesus wants you to get to know Him, understand His ways and live under the authority of the Holy Spirit.

Jesus wants a believer to seriously seek the will of God and learn to be obedient to His instructions. 

Walk with the Living Christ and cast out the spirit of religion. He is terrified of Jesus!

The Spirit of Christ spoke to me last night about how Jesus embodies the chivalry life. 

Chivalry relates to the medieval values of knights. They exhibited the qualities of courage, honor, courtesy, justice, and a readiness to help the weak. They also esteemed and respected women.

The knights were required to keep the moral standards of their elite title by self discipline. This is virtually impossible for a human being. The Christ follower keeps the values of God by faith and through the transformation of the inner man.

Chivalry sounds like the exact qualities of Jesus. The salvation of Christ and the work of the Holy Spirit fills believers with the character of God.

We need supernatural courage to deal with the trials of life. Jesus never gave up even when facing death.

We must learn to honor and esteem all people in our life regardless of their values. Jesus was humble and cared about others above His own needs. 

The chivalry believer is courteous to others regardless of the ethnic, religious or cultural divisions.

The chivalry believer appropriates the justice of God in all of his dealings in life. He does not abide by the standards of the world.

He is a doer of the word of God and reaches out to those in need. Like the good samaritan he helps the weak and downtrodden. 

He respects and honors women. He responds with chivalry love and gentleness. 

You and I can never be a chivalry individual without the work of Holy Spirit. He dwells in all believers and anoints you with the Spirit and power.

The “born again” believer seeks the will of God and walks in oneness with Jesus by faith.

It is impossible to win in the world which is the antithesis of God. The world offers darkness and death.

Satan controls the world and His purpose is to steal, kill and destroy.

The world cannot make or keep promises for you. 

The world is short lived and Jesus is eternal.

If you are a believer, Satan has assigned demons to harass and deceive you. You are in the middle of an invisible war between light and darkness.

The efficacy of Jesus is a promise to protect you at all times. This doesn’t mean you can avoid trials or calamities but you can be confident Jesus will deliver you from harm.

The protection of Jesus will come by your unyielding faith in the promises of Jesus. The Christ follower walks by faith not by what he sees with his eyes.

The protection of Jesus is nurtured by prayer, reading the Bible and listening for the voice of the Holy Spirit.

Jesus is omniscient and sees every detail of your future. He wants to protect you from evil. This happens through the Holy Spirit who is sealed in all believers. It is vital for a believer to submit to the authority of the Holy Spirit. He is your lifeline to the Living Christ.

The Holy Spirit will lead you beside still waters and make you lie down in green pastures. 

Jesus offers supernatural peace which cannot be found in the world. 

Jesus asks you to cease from striving and rest in Him while He fights your battles for you. 

The Living Christ is a reality and desires a personal and symbolic relationship with a believer. He is your only hope for an abundant life on the earth!

Jesus died so all believers can be cleansed of sin by the blood of the Cross and transformed into the character of God. And, the gift of salvation allows a believer to live forever with Jesus.

Unfortunately, many believers have a lackadaisical attitude about the Cross and do not take Jesus seriously. They tend to concentrate on taking from Jesus and doing works instead of walking in oneness with the Living Christ. They become deceived by the demonic spirit of religion and trade the importance of knowing Jesus for keeping laws and doing works.

This is how you can overcome the world and become a member of the powerful and everlasting remnant of Christ. The teaching comes from Zephaniah, Chapter three.

God promises to purify the lips of His people. They will worship the Lord and serve Him in a personal and symbolic relationship. Pray all your words will be edifying to Jesus.

They will bring offerings of joy and praise to God. This takes place when a believer meets the transfigured Christ and sees the futility of trying to live without God.

The Body of Christ will no longer be put to shame for their sins against God. The Lord will remove the arrogant and prideful people and there will be holiness in His kingdom.

God will seek out the meek and humble and they will trust God implicitly.

The remnant will not lie, do wrong or speak deceitful words because they will be yielding to the authority of the Holy Spirit.

God will supply food, necessities and rest for the remnant of Christ.

The remnant will walk with Jesus by faith under the authority of the Holy Spirit.

Now is the time. Come to Jesus and He will make you into a new creature and give you the ability to live in the presence of our powerful God! There is no one like Him!

The Holy Spirit spoke to me last night about the cleansing of the Body of Christ and the coming judgments of Jesus through the wisdom of Zechariah the prophet in Chapter 13.

The judgments of God refer to the span of time from Zechariah to Christ. God never changes. He is the same yesterday, today and forever.

Jesus does not want miscreants; He wants loyal and obedient believers filled with the character of God. Like Sodom and Gomorrah He plans to rid the Body of Christ of the cloud of darkness. 

God has opened a fountain of Living Water through Jesus for the cleansing of sins and destruction of idols. This happened with the death of Jesus on the Cross. He will also banish the corrupt prophets and unclean spirits from the lands. This will probably take place in the Millennium rule of Christ.

There were many false prophets in the time of Zechariah. God told Zechariah that He would destroy and dishonor all of them. Likewise there are many false teachers today and they will also be disposed of by God.

The false prophets will be ashamed of their visions which deceive believers. They will confess they are not of God or anointed by His Spirit. They will admit they are ordinary people who have been wounded by God for their transgressions.

Jesus, the Son of God, was sacrificed by his Father who is His closest companion. 

The judgments of God will be cruel and harsh and no one will be immune. 

The Shepard will be struck down and the sheep will be scattered. The little ones will not be saved from the vengeance of God.

Turn to Jesus. Do not become an endangered species!

The judgments will kill two thirds of the world’s population. The remaining one third will be severely tested with the fires of God. They will be refined like pure silver. They will call upon the name of Jesus and He will say these are My people and the people of God will respond “The Lord is my God”.

Now is the time to get right with God through the blood of Christ. Come to Jesus by faith and walk in oneness with Him under the authority of the Holy Spirit.
